A few years later, Yi Tianxing finished the last few exams at school, stood on the platform of Yijiao School, looked at the retro-style railing around him, looked at the lotus pond in front of him that was divided into two pieces by the road, and looked at the residual leaves and branches of the pond that looked timid and shivering due to the cold, he sighed.

It's time to say goodbye to campus.

Learning and knowledge, etc., I can't learn much in this Lang Lang Garden, but the atmosphere here is comfortable, and the books are mixed with spicy breath, which is the most ordinary life in the world, but it is Yi Tianxing's favorite life - the word "campus", for teenagers, the symbolism of jīng gods is even greater.

Climbing shoulders with the students in the same dormitory from the examination room back to the old dormitory, in the dark room, everyone began to play cards, in the beautiful name, this semester's end of the war.

Looking at the hustle and bustle in the dormitory, listening to the sound of playing cards falling on the wooden table, Yi Tianxing grinned, regardless of the strong opposition of everyone, he leaned up with a dead face, and played a double pick seriously, which made him not use any ability, nor did he look at the cards of those classmates, but his super memory still allowed him to perfectly use the tactic of pulling the bottom fifteen points.

"Only fifteen points in hand. He made a gesture of regret and was coaxed off the table by the man next to him.

Thinking of his life when he first entered the university, thinking of playing mahjong in the heart of student activities, playing double chess and double killing, and playing Go Yunzi, Yi Tianxing was in a trance. At this time, he had already packed his package and went downstairs, and his classmates thought that he had already bought a ticket, so they patted him on the shoulder as a send-off, and no one knew that he was ready to drop out of school, so this farewell seemed very manly and free.

Walking towards the east gate with the package on the campus, he saw a girl on the way look at him, and then immediately lowered her head, quietly preparing to walk past him.

"Secretary Zhong Datuan, why didn't you say hello when you saw me?" Yi Tianxing stopped the girl and laughed.

Easy...... Easy...... Hello Mr. Yi. Classmate Zhong, who was very cheerful in Pingrì, had no reason to blush, and hurriedly bowed his head and left.

Yi Tianxing touched his head in the back, not knowing why.

―――――――――――――――――――

Pengfei Industry and Trade is not far from the provincial university, in a building north of the Qiyan Bridge, Yi Tianxing did not take a car, along the Taiping South Street of Hualu all the way to the north, bypassing twenty, and then looked at the Fubei River from the bridge, and then arrived at the downstairs of Pengfei Industry and Trade.

He looked up and saw the four big gold-lettered signboards of "Golden Years" shining under the winter.

"That baby, which one are you looking for?" Yi Tianxing was about to enter the elevator to the third floor, when he was stopped in authentic provincial dialect.

When he looked back, he saw that it was a young man, with extremely thick eyebrows and yellow teeth exposed in a large mouth.

He frowned slightly: "Go up and eat." ”

――――――――――――――――――――――

The second meeting was held in this conference room, in view of the fact that the name of the third young master of the Gu family had already resounded to a perverted level in the provincial capital, the Pengfei industry and trade bigwigs who received the news no longer dared to be as contemptuous as last time, and ran over in half an hour.

Yuan Ye sat beside him, handed him a cup of tea, attached it to his ear and whispered, "Surprise attack?"

He smiled, turned to look at Xiao Xiao, who was still a little immobile beside him, and said angrily: "Why were you discharged from the hospital so early? ”

After Xiao Xiao came out of the hospital, he has been following Yuan Ye, but his injuries have not yet healed, and he is temporarily doing idle work in the company.

Yuan Ye frowned: "With such a big decision, I haven't paved the way below, I'm afraid there will be a backlash." ”

Yi Tianxing also frowned: "Don't pay attention to these broken people below, the two of us have the final say." ”

Zhou Xiaomei also twisted in from outside the conference room at this time, and Brother Jun, the head of the security guard in Mtang, followed her, nodding and greeting acquaintances all the way, and walked all the way to the Taipan chair.

She knew the aesthetic intention of her young master, and she was dressed up very elegantly today, a light pink suit, coupled with a fresh and lovely hairstyle, she seemed to have changed a person, walked to Yi Tianxing's side and lowered her eyebrows, and said very morally: "Young master, Xiaomei brought the sister named Chen Chen last time today, and she was in the car below." ”

Yi Tianxing squirted out a sip of tea.

Yuan Ye was curious: "Who is that Chen Chen?"

"I don't know it, and I don't see it. Yi Tianxing hurriedly rubbed his wet hands on his body twice, stopped the two of them from talking, and said to the fox Jīng with a little anger and a little begging for mercy: "Sister Xiaomei, spare me." ”

As soon as this sentence came out, the eyes of all the Pengfei members who were originally pretending to be heroes lit up, and then they looked at Zhou Xiaomei. It seems that this young and beautiful old bustard leader is very familiar with the young master?

Yi Tianxing beckoned Zhou Xiaomei to lean over his ears, and said with a quiet look in his eyes: "Come on, the play is almost over, and I have given face, go ahead." ”

Zhou Xiaomei was slightly startled, only to know that this young man's mind was so exquisite, but she didn't panic and smiled: "Where can Xiaomei's little mind be hidden from the young master." ”

Yi Tianxing also grinned: "Lend me the phone." ”

Zhou Xiaomei smiled slightly, took out the brick mobile phone from Kun's bag and handed it to him, then returned to his seat and sat down, and began to enjoy the flattering eyes of everyone around him.

"Meetings are held. Yi Tianxing banged on the expensive table and shouted at the throat like an aunt in the neighborhood committee.

The venue was already quite quiet, but at this time it was even quieter than a black cat could be spotted even if it walked by.

"It's been a long time, everyone's doing, okay?"

He hadn't been a meeting host, so the opening remarks were quite rustic. Fortunately, the cadres of Pengfei Industry and Trade under them had no resistance to the yam egg pie, and nodded like chickens.

"It's good, young master bothered. "This is a sour man with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes.

"The chairman can rest assured that we eat and drink well and sleep well, so that we can have strength in fighting. "This is a pretending heroic bastard.

"Hey, follow the third young master, let's get mixed up in this provincial city boundary, where do you go without giving a thumbs up, do you see? This is the famous third young master of the ancient family on the provincial road, next to Brother Yuan's cronies and sister Zhou Xiaomei, who is directly subordinate to the third young master of our provincial city...... "This is a villain who sloshes and shoots horses, this villain is very strong, and no one has missed a word."

Yi Tianxing propped his forehead and lamented weakly: "Who are these people!"

After a noisy scene, the enlarged meeting of the second general meeting of shareholders of Pengfei Industry and Trade Group Co., Ltd. was successfully held.

"The topic today is different. The first thing: the business started from Chengdong Biaozi must be well controlled, absorbed, and mastered. ”

Yi Tianxing finally found out that he was not the material to be a leader, so he didn't speak by himself, but explained the meaning to Yuan Ye and asked Yuan Ye to make a report.

“...... Then the acting chairman, that is, the third young master, explained that about the other few fields, everyone should start to let go slowly. Which ones? It's Lao Xing, Bald Lin, and their families. ”

As soon as these words came out, the conference room began to be lively, and some people who had occupied a lot of territory in this "village" operation quit.

Yuan Ye waved his hand: "It's not all released, what is the noise! In the future, it will naturally collect management fees from there." ”

"Those bosses are all dead, who will collect them when they are released? Isn't it a big mess again, isn't the young master's instructions last time that stability is more important than everything?"

Yi Tianxing raised his head and glanced at everyone's faces expressionlessly: "Who said they are all dead? I said that if they die, then they are really dead, I didn't say this, no one can think of them dead." Today is to convey, not to discuss, remember, within three months, some too arrogant transactions have been released, especially the new land that has entered this month. The dark market business in Chengdong Biaozi has been suppressed by the public security, and the rest is the management fee of rì chang, rest assured that this money is collected, and you had better be honest with the rest of these few pieces. ”

Whether he likes it or not, the current Gu family has formed a monopoly on the rivers and lakes of the provincial capital, and he has not forgotten what Director Pan said in the four-story Soviet-style building.

Even if you want to be a bird, you have to be a crow that haunts the night, and don't become a colorful fool and fly around in front of a shotgun.

"I know what everyone lives by, so I don't ask about specific things, so as not to be upset that I know, but everyone remembers one thing, I am in this position for a day, you should think about things first, don't do things too out of line, otherwise I will be very unhappy." ”

Although he is still a young man and does not have the momentum to be in the top position for a long time, the baptism of blood and fire these days has made him feel a little indifferent.

Seeing that these people below nodded, he gave Yuan Ye a look of satisfaction and asked him to continue.

"The second thing is a personnel appointment, and when the old calendar year is over, Xiao Xiao ...... Hey......" Yuan Ye turned his head and asked Xiao Xiao's name in a low voice with a hint of apology, before continuing: "Xiao Jinsong, I will take over the position of assistant general manager of Pengfei Industry and Trade Group Co., Ltd., and ask the supervisors of various departments to cooperate more." ”

There was a strange silence in the room.

Xiao Jinsong, half a year ago, was a driver of Pengfei Industry and Trade, and he was not qualified to enter this conference room at all, even now, when he saw everyone in this conference room, he still bowed his head and shouted his brother - such a small character is actually about to parachute into the company's leadership core.

The people who mix the rivers and lakes are not stupid, and they know that this is the favor given by the third young master who feels sorry for this kid and the savior's broken leg. But this favor is too great, and it is faintly harming the future of the rest of the company.

In addition, the old master has been staying in Gaoyang, although the third young master in front of him is not like a person, but he only comes to the company once in half a year, it seems that he is not here, and Brother Yuan has already sent a message to go back to Gaoyang to accompany the old lady...... The business of this provincial city always has to find a successor, is Xiao Jinsong the successor who is determined? What about us?

When fundamental interests are at stake, people are no longer as persuasive as they were just now, and prolonged silence represents protest and dissent.

Xiao Xiao, who was at the focus of the incident, was sitting next to Yi Tianxing making notes, when he suddenly heard this Chun incident, his face turned white, and he muttered, "I can't do it." ”

Yi Tianxing leaned comfortably on the executive chair, looked at the members of the company with different faces, and said softly: "I said you can do it, you can do it, you say you can't do it, you have to do it, I have explained this matter to you on the edge of Uncle Xu's little pond, haven't you been mentally prepared?"

Ignoring the thoughtful Xiao Jinsong, he bowed forward, rested his feet on his large package under the table, glanced at the silent crowd with interest, and said two words after being quiet for a long time:

"Applause. ”

......

......

It was quiet, Zhou Xiaomei, who was lowering her head, felt Yi Tianxing's gaze, she gritted her teeth and gave a look to Junzi behind her, and the two of them raised their palms and began to clap their hands.

And the remaining dozen or so finally woke up under Yi Tianxing's cold gaze and Zhou Xiaomei's applause, and now they are no longer facing the unfathomable but benevolent old master, nor the brave but kind Brother Yuan Ye, but the third young master who does not play cards according to common sense and stirs up the bloody storm of the provincial city and rivers and lakes alone!

Yi Tianxing's faint gaze swept around.

Suddenly, the conference room on the Golden Years Western Restaurant resounded with warm, lasting and sincere applause, which continued endlessly to celebrate the successful conclusion of the conference.

After everyone dispersed, Yi Tianxing took out the mobile phone he borrowed from Zhou Xiaomei from under the table and put it next to his ear, and said, "Old comrade, do you hear me? Don't let me take care of these things in the future, you don't necessarily have to fight and kill every day to enter the WTO to practice, right?"

The old man's voice sounded in the microphone: "Let's talk about it, but remember to come and drink two glasses with me when you go back to the county seat for the New Year." ”

―――――――――――――――――――――

There were four people sitting in the car, and Zhou Xiaomei was driving.

Xiao Xiao's legs were not yet complete, and he sat in the back seat with Yi Tianxing, his face at this time was no longer as nervous as in the conference room, and he was more calm and stoic.

"It calmed down quickly, and it seems that the underworld also has to have a basis. ”

Yi Tianxing thought like this in his heart, looked at the expression on his face and smiled slightly, and said to Zhou Xiaomei, who was driving, but his ears were erect: "Sister Xiaomei, it's okay for your subordinates to go back by themselves, right?"

Zhou Xiaomei's voice in response was crisp: "No problem, I haven't driven a car for a long time, so I'm just going to try it today." ”

Yi Tianxing wiped the cold sweat on his head, turned to Xiao Xiao and said, "There are no outsiders in this car, if you have any doubts, tell me directly." ”

"I'm too low to be convinced. Xiao Jinsong knows very well where his biggest difficulty is.

"Today, if they want to spit out part of the territory they have eaten, some people will definitely not want to, and they will disobey and use this to establish their authority. Yi Tianxing said softly: "How did you practice that exercise last time?"

"I feel it. Xiao Xiao glanced at the two people in the front row, lowered his voice, but couldn't hide a trace of joy.

"That's good, I'm going back to the county seat recently, and you can ask me if you have any questions about cultivation after the new year. Yi Tianxing raised his voice, "As for the manpower, let Brother Yuan transfer it to you, but don't be too ruthless, it will be counterproductive." ”

Yuan Ye turned around and frowned: "I still think it's too fast, those in the company are all people, and relying on Liwei alone can only shock for a while, so I have to support a few cronies for Xiao Xiao." ”

"I thought about it. Yi Tianxing smiled, "The three people who are talking in the conference room today, the soft-spoken sour people are not credible, and the rough people who pretend to be heroic are the most suspicious, but the ** naked sycophant villain can be used." ”

"You said that Wei Zi?" Yuan Yezhi frowned, and there was a contempt and disgust oozing from the tips of his eyebrows.

"The villain is also a unique weapon if it is used well. Yi Tianxing smiled and said: "He is such a disgusting person, but now he is qualified to sit in the conference room, in addition to observing words and observing sè, and setting fire to the wind, he must also have some real skills." ”

"Young Master, where are we going?"

"I've said it eight hundred times, Sister Xiaomei, let's change my name. ”

"Ah...... Chairman, where are we going?" Zhou Xiaomei covered her mouth and smiled, full of charm.

Yi Tianxing scratched his head helplessly, and suddenly his arm shook: "Bingfa Ink Lake is going to go! My family is going to rent a house there to open a bookstore, please ask the three of you to help discuss the rent in detail." ”

The three coolies who were arrested looked at each other, a bigwig of the underworld in the provincial capital, a leading woman in the smoke of the provincial capital, and a newly appointed assistant of the company...... I had to work hard for a small bookstore.

―――――――――――――――――

How to say that now Yi Tianxing also has 100,000 yuan in his card, pretending to be half a rich man, and the matter of renting a house and opening a bookstore was done very smoothly, and after Zhou Xiaomei sent Xiao Jinsong back to his residence, he and Yuan Ye walked slowly along the road next to the ink lake.

"Xiao Jinsong is very urban, aren't you worried about the future?" Yuan Ye handed him a cigarette and lit it himself.

Yi Tianxing took a puff lightly, slowly exhaled the smoke, watched the white smoke dissipate in the sky of the provincial capital of Dongrì, and said: "You taught me to smoke this cigarette, and now that I think about it, my real acquaintance in the provincial city is you, it is indeed a very sad half a year." ”

Then he said: "Xiao Jinsong, you don't need to monitor it, you should have noticed it a long time ago, I will ...... What the secular people don't know, I taught him that kind of kung fu, and he should know the difference between my level and the secular people, and he won't act rashly. ”

Yuan Ye took a puff of cigarette and said, "Aren't you afraid that he will learn your kung fu and deal with you in the future?"

Yi Tianxing smiled slightly: "He is a smart person, the more he learns, the more he will know, he will not be able to catch up with me in his life in terms of cultivation." ”

"Why?"

"Because I'm a genius. Yi Tianxing pointed at his nose with a cigarette butt, "And genius is such a thing." ”

Yuan Ye smiled silently.

"Do you want to learn?" Yi Tianxing suddenly came to the interest of recruiting disciples, and looked at Yuan Ye's loyal but fierce face curiously.

"Why didn't you teach me at first?" Yuan Ye looked at him and smiled very interestingly, "Do you think that those of us who are fools in the rivers and lakes, the higher the kung fu, the easier it is to do bad things, and the more pitiful the people are?"

was told what was on his mind, Yi Tianxing smiled, and finished smoking the cigarette in his finger in one gulp.

"Don't bother with that, although I don't understand why you suddenly dropped out of school to open a bookstore, but since you like it, it's up to you to take care of your own life first. The two have been together for half a year, and Yuan Ye also has some feelings for this young man, "As for me, I still believe in my brother." ”

He patted his waist.

Yi Tianxing knew that he had been pinning the Browning, the millimeter one in his waist.

"Please, it's already an antique, I don't know if it will ring. ”

"I'm a conservative man. Yuan Ye replied indifferently.

"I almost forgot, you helped me get a ticket back to Gaoyang, buying a ticket at the train station during the Chūn Festival is the most bastard experience in our country, I'm scared. ”

The two said goodbye to Yujiawan, Yi Tianxing went to Guiyuan Temple with a large package on his back, and Yuan Ye returned to his home.

Watching Yuan Ye's generous back gradually disappear into the crowd, Yi Tianxing remembered that he had never asked about this person's family situation, and couldn't help but smile and shake his head.

―――――――――――――――――

I stayed in Guiyuan Temple for two more days, playing with the gold ring on my finger from time to time, and finally waited for the ticket sent by Yuan Ye.

Yi Tianxing threw the package into the meditation room presided over by Bin Ku, and then ran to Ye Xiangseng's room to yell at it.

"You're stupid, you've been here for seven or eight days!"

After Ye Xiangsheng came back from the Shuyuan, he trapped himself in the wing room without eating, drinking or speaking, and when he saw Yi Tianxing coming, he just smiled and didn't say much.

Yi Tianxing frowned slightly when he saw his strange appearance, so he ignored him, went to the back garden to say hello to his ancestors, went to the station to get on the train, found his sleeper, and went back to the county seat after a sleep.

It's only been a month or two since he last returned to Gaoyang County, so he doesn't feel timid, but when he lies on the hay shop in his small black house, smelling the sheets sent by Lei Lei under him, he still feels very good.

The next day is the twenty-third day of the lunar month, the new year.

Today should be a sacrificial stove, but there is only a kerosene stove in the small black room that has not been used for a long time, the stove is full of black ash, he has not cleaned the **, is boxing on the small stone lawn outside the house, reviewing the feeling of the year, suddenly felt a tingle on the tail finger of the right hand, as if the gold ring was buzzing.

As soon as she turned around, she saw Zou Leilei, who was wearing a pink cotton jacket, looking at herself with a smile, and the slender gold ring on her right hand glowed softly.

......

......

"Moving to your house? You don't seem to have that many rooms. Yi Tianxing touched his head, very embarrassed.

"You sleep on the couch in the living room. Lei Lei, who was folding the quilt for him, said angrily: "Mom and Dad said that it was too pitiful for you to live here alone for the New Year." Remember, I didn't ask you to stay at home. ”

"Done. Yi Tianxing grinned and said: "Since it is the mother-in-law who has spoken, we as juniors naturally have to listen." ”

"Look at your beauty. Zou Leilei teased: "I said that you are also a college student now, why are you still like this." ”

"I've dropped out. He looked at her with a smile.

Lei Lei's face darkened for a moment, and suddenly thought of Yi Tianxing's mood, and hurriedly smiled reluctantly, and her brilliance reappeared: "Look at this poor child, come, sister hug." ”

He said with his arms outstretched.

Yi Tian walked forward and hugged her tightly under her armpits, snorted fiercely on her red face, and whispered in her ear: "Let's go, let's go home!"

The boy pushed Lei Lei's sky-blue sè bicycle, the girl held his arm, and the two of them walked slowly and leisurely on the streets of Gaoyang County. There are fewer stalls selling top cakes on the street, but the Seagull Store is still doing thriving, and there is a shop on the street that surprisingly does not play Jacky Cheung's song, but uses a cassette machine to play a song from Dou Wei's black dream.

"It's chilly in the season of falling leaves

And you

Lonely rì against myself

And you

Fear if the love of the heart will be destroyed

Worried about the future is even more worried about my existence

It was like someone was crying on a cold, rainy night

And you

Memories of the past are in the vast mind

And you."
