Chapter 86
The decoration materials in the market, everything, Gao Prospect looked dazzling, he looked at a few, and also asked the boss, wholesale is only for large customers, the price is not the same, the difference is still very big, the difference is in the quality, the layman can not understand.
From this he deduced that the whole wholesale market was generally like this, and that there was no need to look any further, he stood still; "Brother Fang, let's not read it, it's better to talk for a while, how did you and the surnamed Xiong meet?"
Fang Wei felt that no matter how good his relationship with Gao Qiantu was, he couldn't tell the details of others casually, so he said lightly; "Xiong Zhiqiang, this person, I met a few years ago, on the train to Nanling, this time to buy decoration materials, I saw him again, I haven't dealt with him, the first time you saw him, what do you think of this person?"
Gao Qiantu said; "I just know him, and I can't say whether it's good or bad, after all, he is a businessman, let's buy his goods, can he not be enthusiastic? However, his enthusiasm is a bit excessive, but it doesn't seem like he's pretending, and it doesn't seem so hypocritical, and on the whole, I feel that this person is quite righteous. ”
Fang Wei said with a smile; "Brother Gao, your vision is still good, and you can see people quite accurately, children from poor families, in order to survive, it is easy to learn bad, but it is difficult to learn well."
Gao Qiantu felt that there was something in Fang Wei's words, which immediately aroused his interest and asked; "Brother Fang, what you just said is meaningful, what does it mean?"
Fang Wei had already realized that he had inadvertently slipped out of his mouth, so he had to say vaguely; "I just expanded the topic a bit, and I don't mean anything else, don't think about it."
Gao Qiantu said; "Brother Fang, you won't deceive people, I still understand this, your explanation just now has no confidence, and you can't convince me at all."
Fang Wei had no choice but to admit and said; "If you really want to know, Xiong Zhiqiang has some things, I won't hide it from you anymore, I will find time in the future, and I will tell you in detail."
Gao Qiantu wanted to continue to ask, but at this moment, a person carrying a bundle of decorative materials walked past them, and the things on his shoulders were swaying up and down, just about to touch Fang Wei's legs.
He hurriedly grabbed Fang Wei and shouted loudly to that person; "Hey, why were you careless, you didn't pay attention to it, and you almost touched someone."
The young man carrying the things looked back, but did not speak, turned his head and walked away, and after walking a few steps, he put down his words and said; "I'm carrying something, you stand in the middle of the road, you don't know how to give way, others can hardly pass, I don't blame you, you talked about me."
At the moment when that person turned around to speak, Fang Wei saw his face clearly and said to Gao Qianqian; "Brother Gao, let's follow the young man in front of you, carrying things, see where he is going?"
Gao Qiantu said; "Brother Fang, people haven't touched you, why bother with him, I've already said him just now, I think it's better to make less trouble."
Fang Wei said with a smile; "Where do you want to go, I'm not going to trouble people, that young man just now, I seem to have seen him somewhere, let's go and see if it's the person I know."
Fang Wei dragged Gao Qian, followed behind the people, and came to a wholesale department, the person put down the things he was carrying from his shoulder, wiped the sweat on his face, turned to look at the two of them, and said; "What do you mean you two follow me? Did it touch you, or did it scratch you? ”
The young man's boss, seeing that his hired man seemed to be about to quarrel with someone, hurried over, looked at the young man, and asked; "What's going on? If that's the case, apologize to them. ”
The young man looked at the boss and said; "They don't blame me for this, but they stand in the middle of the road and don't give way to me, even if they are bruised, they can't rely on me."
The boss walked up to them and said politely; "Two masters, this kid is too young and not sensible, I apologize to you for him, did you hurt you?"
Fang Wei said with a smile; "This boss, you're polite, we don't have anything else to do, just go around, he didn't hurt us, it's us who should apologize, not him."
The young man's eyes widened, looking at the two of them, Fang Wei asked; "You've been watching us, do you know me?"
Fang Wei's words attracted the attention of the young man, and he looked at Fang Wei alone, and after a while, he walked over and said with a red face; "Uncle, is it really you? How do you know I'm here?
Fang Wei grabbed his hand and said cordially; "I haven't seen you for two years, you've grown taller and fatter, your body is much stronger than before, and now you've grown into an adult."
The lad said; "Uncle, it was my fault just now, I shouldn't have talked to you like that, please forgive me, I apologize to you."
The young man was about to bend down, but was blocked by Fang Wei and said; "You didn't do anything wrong, why do you apologize to me? You don't want to take a bite, an uncle, call me that, I'm more than ten years older than you, it's good for you to call me brother, it sounds comfortable, and it's not so embarrassing. ”
The lad said; "Uncle, it's a bad time to call my brother, that's absolutely not good, if it weren't for that time, you saved me, maybe by now, I was still controlled by those people, you are kind to me, call uncle, it's not too much."
Fang Wei said; "The reason why I let you take the bus that time, I was still a little uneasy, I was afraid that those ruffians were looking for you, and I kept watching the bus go away, so I left with confidence, but I was still worried about you, afraid that you would fall into the hands of those people again."
The lad said; "Uncle, I was on the bus, and I kept looking at you, the passengers around me, seeing that I was in tears, there was a kind person, seeing that I was not very old, and I was not well dressed, it was very pitiful, he pulled me to my side, asked about the situation, and after getting off the bus, led me to the restaurant, ate two large bowls of rice, and took out all the change in my pocket, and gave it to me."
Fang Wei said with emotion; "You're lucky, you've met a good Samaritan, and then where did you go? Have you returned to your hometown? ”
The lad said; "Uncle, this little money on me is not enough to buy a ticket, even eating is a problem, even if I can go back to my hometown, I'm afraid there will be no money to come out, if you want to come out again, you can only beg along the road, the family is very poor, my mother has passed away, I am left with my father, and there is a younger brother, if I go back, I can only add a mouth to the family to eat, it is better for me to stay outside, at least I can reduce some of the burden on my father, uncle, do you think I am right?"
Fang Wei sighed and said; "Alas, you're right, no matter what, you can understand the difficulties of your family, and you're also a filial son, oh, by the way, what's your name?"
The young man said shyly; "Uncle, my name is Zhou Shanlin, my nickname is Linzi, our hometown is a mountainous area, the trees grow tall and big, the forest is full of mountains, I can't see the end at a glance, I heard my mother say, the day I was born, the weather was very good, under the sun, looking out from my window, the leaves are blowing in the wind, like a piece of small gold, shining gold, but it looks good, my mother hopes that when I grow up, I can earn a lot of money, just like the leaves on our mountain, and change the life of our family in the future, so I gave this to me, Very earthy and very down-to-earth name, about when I was seven or eight years old, my mother passed away, until now, our family is still the same, poor, and there is no way to fulfill my mother's wish. ”
Fang Wei glanced at Gao Qiantu and said; "Zhou Shanlin, this name is very good, the nickname is more pleasant, I will call you Linzi in the future, this is very representative, when people casually say your nickname, they will think of your hometown, there must be a lot of forests. You are not old, as long as you are not afraid of hardship, work hard, slowly save some money, and do something else, in a few years, your mother's wish, you will definitely fulfill it. ”
I don't know when, Zhou Shanlin's boss was also standing next to him and listening, he took over and said; "Lin Zi, this kid, life is very hard, he has been working with me for more than a year, he is never lazy, he is also very obedient, he is very good at dealing with customers, it is a bit of a shaft, he has to finish what he recognizes, and he doesn't even eat until he finishes his work."
Fang Wei asked; "Boss, why did Lin Zi come to you, can you tell me?"
The boss said; "That was a year ago, it was about the afternoon, a few people ran past my door, I thought they were chasing the thief, so I chased after him, just around the corner over there, a group of people surrounded him, I was about to fight, I ran two steps, walked to the front, those people, not the merchants of our wholesale market, do not know them, I came forward and asked;" What's going on? He's still a kid? Why do you want to hit him? ”
Zhou Shanlin heard someone speak for him, put down his hands on his head, looked at me and said; "Uncle, I'm not a thief at all, just now in the market, I picked up a wallet, and was about to open it, when a few of them chased after me, saying that I stole their wallet, and chased and beat me, uncle, you give a comment, what is wrong with me?"
The boss continued; "At that time, I asked those people to let go of the hand that grabbed the forest, a few guys were not convinced, and wanted to quibble, just a few merchants, also came over, saw that I was going to quarrel with them, and immediately gave me help, those people did not let go, grabbed the arm of the forest tightly, and wanted to take the wallet from his hand, I said loudly; Child, don't give them your wallet, you come to me and see what they dare to do to you, it's just lawless. ”
When the boss said this, he paused and asked; ", Boss, the wallet in Lin Zi's hand, was it stolen or picked up, did you figure it out later? What happened to those guys? ”
The boss said; "Later, let Lin Zi stand behind me and ask those people, you tell the things in the wallet, prove that he stole it, if you don't know it clearly, you are not the owner of the wallet, it is very likely that a few of you are the thieves who stole the wallet, as soon as my words came out, there were a few acquaintances next to me, and they were also shouting loudly, let those people explain clearly, what was in the wallet, those guys, immediately dumbfounded, didn't say a word, and immediately walked away."
Fang Wei said; "Boss, how can you see that those people are not good things, it seems that your social experience is quite rich and well-informed, and a little trick like them can't blind you."
The boss was a little embarrassed, looked at the two of them, and said with a smile; "I don't have other skills, I still have some vision for looking at people, mainly because I have been to a lot of places, and I have experienced a lot of things, like us at the bottom of the society, the most important thing to do is to help each other, not hurt each other, when I see those, life is not very good, and I don't work hard, all rely on stealing chickens and dogs, getting something for nothing, or bullying others, to satisfy their desires, I can't wait to chop up those things that don't become a weapon, and feed them to the wild dogs, so as to relieve the hatred in my heart."
Fang Wei's heart had already begun, admiring the person in front of him, and said; "Boss, you have a great sense of justice, you can't see some injustices in society, and now when you talk about it, you are still gritting your teeth in the past."
Gao Qiantu said; "Brother Fang, the boss is a very good person, he has a good temper with me, if people don't dislike it, we will definitely be good friends."
The boss was very happy when he heard that someone was praising him, looked at Gao Qian, pointed at Fang Wei with his finger, and said; "Two brothers, you two are also good people, just now Lin Zi said, this brother is kind to him, I admire him, I am a timid person, only when there are many people, I dare to speak righteously, compared with this brother, without his courage, it can only be dwarfed."
Fang Wei said; "You can leave Lin Zi and give him a bite to eat, this is already very good, it shows that you are kind-hearted and helpful, I admire the five-body projection, you don't need to be modest."
The boss said; "To tell the truth, during that time, there was a shortage of manpower in our store, and I saw that Lin Zi was thin and hungry, and his clothes were not good, so I had compassion and took the opportunity to leave him behind and be my helper, saying that I helped him, but rather, it was he who helped me, and in this matter, what I did was not so bright."
Fang Wei said; "Boss, you are a happy person, you can tell us what you think in your heart without reservation, you are above board, worthy of our trust, we sincerely admire you."
Gao Qiantu glanced at Xiong Zhiqiang's shop, just saw him, beckoned to this side, and then walked over, Gao Qiantu walked up to Fang Wei and said in a low voice; "Brother Fang, Xiong Zhiqiang is calling us, let's go over, or say hello to this boss, let's go."
After Fang Wei shook hands with the boss, he walked up to Zhou Shanlin, patted him on the shoulder, and said; "Linzi, you have to work hard, don't let it down, the boss is kind to you, I will come to see you often, someone calls me over there, and there are other things, let's leave it at that."
Zhou Shanlin looked at Fang Wei and said; "Uncle, I still have work to do, so I won't send you, you have to come to see me often."
Fang Wei walked a few steps, turned around again, and saw Zhou Shanlin waving his hand, he also raised his arm, waved a few times, and came from there, Lin Zi's voice, he said loudly; "Uncle, goodbye, don't forget me, there is a hard-working person who thinks about you every day and blesses you."
Fang Wei heard Lin Zi's voice, he shouted from the heart, his eyes couldn't help but moisten, he thought, he didn't do anything, and he didn't give much help to others, people are still thinking about it, and they have always been grateful to him, at this time, he realized how easy it is to be satisfied with the children of poor families, even if it is a little help, it will be remembered in his heart, and he will never forget it for the rest of his life.
