Zhang Bin has been squatting here for a little while. Unlike other migrant workers, his purpose of coming here is not to work at all, but to look for opportunities.

When they were in Shanghai, someone reported the incident to Zhang Bin and Wang Jianjun. Fortunately, Zhang Bin happened to be out that day and ran away when things went wrong.

I caught a train heading south and took the train for more than half a month before finally arriving at Yangcheng.

After arriving in Yangcheng, Zhang Bin felt a little relieved. Then he found a place to live temporarily in Yangcheng and gave himself a pseudonym - Guan Zhen.

Zhang Bin had money with him when he ran away, which amounted to more than 5,000 yuan. About 4,000 yuan was Zhang Bin and Wang Jianjun's money to buy raw materials, and the rest was Zhang Bin's own money.

It's a coincidence that if Zhang Bin hadn't planned to use the money that day and happened to have it with him, otherwise he would have had trouble eating while running away like this.

Along the way south, Zhang Bin hid the money tightly. In addition, he was not a young boy who had never been out. He knew how to conceal his identity and not attract attention. So after arriving in Yangcheng, this

The money is still there.

Zhang Bin lived in a local house in Yangcheng, using the pseudonym Guan Zhen he gave himself. Then he found someone to spend some money to solve the identity problem. Of course, it couldn't be an official household registration, but here he still had

In the era when there was no ID card, a letter of introduction was the representative of identity, and having this thing was enough.

Zhang Bin was hiding in Yangcheng and did not dare to contact Shanghai for the time being, for fear that others would find out that he was arrested by the police in Yangcheng.

After hiding for more than a month, Zhang Bin gradually relaxed and returned to his normal life after seeing nothing happened.

Although Zhang Bin has a lot of money, which is a huge sum of money for ordinary people, he still understands the principle of sitting back and having nothing. In addition, when he was in Shanghai, Zhang Bin first followed Song Yuanchao to make clothes hangers.

, and then worked with Wang Jianjun on his own. He had some experience in doing business, and the business atmosphere in Yangcheng is strong. After the reform and opening up, Yangcheng was one of the few places in the country where the individual economy first emerged. How could Zhang Bin not have any ideas in this environment?

As soon as he said he would do it, Zhang Bin paid for it and opened a small shop, and then started doing business in Yangcheng.

In the beginning, the business was pretty good, and I did make some money. When I was too busy, I hired a few people to help. However, who would have thought that the good times would not last long. Zhang Bin made a few bad friends in the business field and actually fell in love with "playing games".

"brand" entertainment activities.

At first it was just for fun, but as time went by the game became bigger and bigger. In addition, he was so addicted to playing cards that he even lost the energy to do business. He just left the business to the people below to take care of it, and he himself

I bury myself in the deck of cards every day and don't even care about business.

As time went by, something happened. One day, Zhang Bin's stall was cheated by a liar and he suffered heavy losses. Moreover, misfortunes never come singly. He was also ganged up on at the card table and lost a large sum of money. Not only did he lose all his belongings,

If you lose, you still owe someone a debt.

This time the business was deemed to have gone bad, and the shop was taken away. It was not enough to pay off all the goods in stock. Such losses caused Zhang Bin to fall from the high clouds to the bottom of the valley in one fell swoop.

Throwing away the cigarette butt he had finished smoking, Zhang Bin squinted his eyes and stood up, lowering his head and walking quickly towards the east. After walking out of the park, Zhang Bin continued walking for a while and turned into a nearby village in the city. Village in the City

The terrain here is complex, with paths extending in all directions. After wandering around for a while, Zhang Bin came to a small courtyard, knocked on the door, and the door opened after a moment.

A burly man showed his face, and when he saw it was Zhang Bin, he quickly gave way to the door.

Zhang Bin entered the door. The man closed the door and was about to ask. Zhang Bin waved his hand to signal him to go in. The two of them walked through the yard and entered the house inside. There was another person in the house. Compared to the man in the house just now, the man was smaller.

He looks much thinner, only in his early 160s, and looks like a local.

"Elder..."

When the thin man saw Zhang Bin coming, he quickly raised his buttocks. Zhang Bin waved his hand and directly pulled up a chair and sat down.

"How's it going, boss?" the man asked expectantly, with a hint of nervousness in his expression.

The two people who were with Zhang Bin were called Lu Sanxi, a native of Lu. Last year, when he came to the south to look for opportunities, someone had his wallet stolen. He was penniless and living on the street with no money for food. At that time, he happened to meet

Zhang Bin rarely won money at the poker table and met the down-and-out Lu Sanxi.

Maybe it was out of sympathy, or maybe he was in a good mood that day. Anyway, Zhang Bin reached out and helped Lu Sanxi. Lu Sanxi, who had eaten five bowls of fried noodles from Zhang Bin, was moved to tears and immediately kowtowed to Zhang Bin.

He thanked me and kept saying that he wanted to repay the favor of the meal.

Seeing that Lu Sanxi was tall and strong, and Zhang Bin happened to be short of people around him, he stayed. From that day on, Lu Sanxi became Zhang Bin's horse boy, and Zhang Bin also became Lu Sanxi's boss.

"The Romance of Fairy Wood"

The thin man's name is Yu Quanbao, a local from Pengcheng, and the house they are in belongs to Yu Quanbao.

Yu Quanbao is a well-known second-rate boy within ten miles. Since his parents passed away very early, Yu Quanbao was raised by his grandmother and had no one to discipline him. Since he was a child, he has done many things like stealing, stealing, and climbing over walls.

A few years ago, my grandma passed away, and no one cared about him. Yu Quanbao was hanging around in the village day and night. One day last year, he suddenly wanted to go to Yangcheng to visit, and he only had five yuan and three cents in his pocket.

The next day, I went to Yangcheng. When I arrived at the colorful world of the big city in Yangcheng, Yu Quanbao was dazzled and excited.

But the good times didn't last long. In less than a day, Yu Quanbao spent all the money in his pocket. He went home empty-handed and couldn't even pay for a bowl of fried noodles.

Unlike Lu Sanxi, Yu Quanbao is the kind of guy who has no bottom line. Although he has no money in his pocket, he does not feel guilty at all. When he is hungry, he goes to the restaurant to eat. After eating, he tells the other person that he wants money, not his life, but his life.

Just make an offer without looking at how much you are worth.

Although most private bosses are angry at such scoundrels, they can do nothing about it. After all, a bowl of fried rice noodles is not worth much, and if a fight breaks out, the gain will outweigh the losses. Moreover, one look at Yu Quanbao's appearance shows that he is a scoundrel who is used to it, and he can reason with scoundrels.

?Even calling the police is of no use.

In this way, most bosses can only admit that they are unlucky when faced with this situation, curse a few words and drive people away. Anyway, they will never let Yu Quanbao enter the store next time they meet.

Relying on this trick, Yu Quanbao was able to hang out in Yangcheng for a few days, but the problem was that this trick didn't work every time. One time, Yu Quanbao hit a snag. The boss who was cheated couldn't bear the bad breath.

, they immediately beat Yu Quanbao half to death, tied him up and sent him to the police.

If Zhang Bin hadn't happened to meet him one day, Yu Quanbao, who was beaten almost to death, might not only have to endure the pain of flesh and blood, but also be sent to a labor camp.

Just like when he met Lu Sanxi, Zhang Bin once again showed mercy and rescued Yu Quanbao. Not only did he take the initiative to pay for him, he also asked Lu Sanxi to take him to the hospital to have his injuries checked.

Although Yu Quanbao is not a good person, he still understands the principle of repaying kindness. In addition, after his grandmother died, everyone despised Yu Quanbao for being a second-rate person. Yu Quanbao was used to the cold and disdainful looks from outsiders.

But this time, Zhang Bin rescued him, asked him in a friendly manner if he was seriously injured, and even asked Lu Sanxi to take him to the hospital to see his injuries. Over the years, Zhang Bin can be said to be the first person to care about him.

This made Yu Quanbao extremely grateful. In addition, Zhang Bin was doing quite well in business at that time. He was dressed like a big boss, and Yu Quan was quick-thinking.

Bao immediately shamelessly wanted to follow Zhang Bin. Zhang Bin originally had no intention of taking him in, but later he heard that Yu Quanbao was from Pengcheng, and he was considered half a local. In addition, Yu Quanbao was a smart kid and was really grateful to him.

, and had already accepted one Lu Sanxi as his younger brother. One was accepted, and two were accepted, so he was left here.

With two younger brothers under him, Zhang Bin felt good about going out and about, and it was indeed much more convenient after becoming the eldest brother. Giving orders and so on made him intoxicated by the eldest brother's style.

Unfortunately, this prestige did not last long. Due to a mistake at the card table and an incident in the business, Zhang Bin went from a wealthy family of 10,000 yuan to a pauper like Lu Sanxi, Yu Quanbao and others overnight.

Yangcheng is completely unable to survive. If he continues to stay in Yangcheng, creditors will come to his door every day and other messy things will happen. Especially his identity is fake. Once things get serious, he will be investigated by the police and they will be able to find out who he is.

.

During the past two years in Yangcheng, Zhang Bin also secretly inquired about the situation in Shanghai and Hainan through other channels. When he learned that Wang Jianjun had been sentenced to a heavy sentence for several years, Zhang Bin did not dare to go back. Now he cannot go back to Shanghai.

Go, but Yangcheng can't survive, so Zhang Bin has no choice but to find another way out.

After much deliberation, Zhang Bin finally made a decision, which was to sneak away to Xiangjiang for development.

After living in Yangcheng for so long, Zhang Bin also has some understanding of Xiangjiang. In Zhang Bin's opinion, Xiangjiang is far more developed than the mainland, and there are more opportunities there. With his own brains, he may not be able to make a name for himself in Xiangjiang.

What's more important is that once you go to Xiangjiang, you will no longer be able to blame yourself for things in the mainland, and you don't have to be so worried every day that you don't even dare to use your real name.

Zhang Bin is a very decisive person, and he is also an ambitious person, otherwise he would not have instigated Wang Jianjun to break away from Song Yuanchao's group and join his team to do it on his own.

After making the decision, Zhang Bin was ready to go to Xiangjiang. There are several ways to go to Xiangjiang from the south. The most reliable way is to go through the regular channels. Whether it is official dispatch, visiting relatives or other methods, go there openly and without any risk.

.

Unfortunately, Zhang Bin cannot do this, so he can only rely on "smuggling".

In the early days, smuggling was nothing more than putting on a tire and swimming across. The waterway was far away, but the problem was that the risk was too great. Border guards were not vegetarians. This kind of thing could be described as a narrow escape from death.

Another way is to take a boat. Many local fishermen do this privately, secretly using boats to carry people across the sea to Xiangjiang in the middle of the night.

Yu Quanbao was a local, and he knew that there were several ship owners who were doing this kind of business privately. Zhang Bin asked him to inquire about it and after getting a definite answer, he immediately decided to use this method to go to Xiangjiang.
