() Peng Hongxiang in front of Lu Yang should have just graduated from the third year of high school at the Xinjiang General Factory Children's School and officially started to blend into the society.
Peng Hongxiang's grades were not good, he had no hope of getting into college, and his family conditions were average. He had to start as a worker in the factory, so he was naturally unwilling to do so.
When he was in the Xinjiang General Factory Children's School, Peng Hongxiang was known as a thorny student. He was very aggressive and the most unruly. In the past two years, he had gained some fame in the family area. It was natural for him to choose to mingle in society.
, his parents can’t control him anyway.
But at this moment, Peng Hongxiang has just graduated. Among these young people who have been in society for some years, he is still not very eye-catching.
Lu Yang's mood fluctuated so much because Peng Hongxiang died in front of him in his previous life. During a group fight with his enemies, someone cut a major artery with a fruit knife and he bled to death on the spot.
Peng Hongxiang is not from the Red Shipyard. His parents are employees of Shuanghe Factory, one of the three major factories. Naturally, he grew up in Shuanghe Factory.
However, Peng Hongxiang had a cousin named Peng Hongliang, who was one of Lu Yang's friends during his time at the Red Shipyard.
A few years ago, Peng Hongliang went to the Red Shipyard during the summer vacation. Because of Peng Hongliang's relationship, he became quite familiar with Lu Yang.
Because he was very familiar with Peng Hongxiang, Lu Yang was in the society in his previous life. Although he was just a student gangster, he was basically his peripheral younger brother. He played and had fun in the society, got into fights, and was taken care of by him many times.
Peng Hongxiang had a righteous character. Every time there was a large-scale group fight, he would always let students like Lu Yang and others stand behind, but he rushed in front until he died that time.
Although Lu Yang's heart was slightly blocked when he thought of Peng Hongliang, he quickly controlled his mood and raised his head and looked at Peng Hongliang with a smile.
"Are you... Dayang?"
Peng Hongxiang finally came to his senses and remembered the arrogant boy he met at the Red Shipyard a few years ago.
At that time, both of them were young and energetic. After they met because of Peng Hongliang, they still had a fight because of a quarrel.
The boy in front of him, who was two years younger than himself, was quite powerful in fighting. Peng Hongxiang tried his best to suppress the boy, but he couldn't hold it down firmly. He was deeply impressed by this boy.
Lu Yang smiled slightly when he heard Dayang's childhood nickname. At that time, he was the boss of the small group, and his brothers often called him that, but he had never heard it again in the past two years.
"This big brother," Lu Yang noticed the impatient expression on the leading young man's face, so he pulled Peng Hongxiang over and asked politely, "What do you call him?"
"Oh, Xiao Yang, this is Brother Qiang," Peng Hongxiang reacted quickly and quickly introduced the two of them to each other, saying: "Brother Qiang, this Lu Yang is my cousin's classmate. Look..."
Peng Hongxiang's expression was also a little embarrassed. After all, he didn't know whether his face would work or not, but he had a righteous character and he would definitely stand out at this time.
Brother Qiang saw Peng Hongxiang's expression and finally confirmed that his subordinate really knew him. He hesitated and said: "Hongxiang, you really know him. This matter..."
Brother Qiang was not too old and had little experience in dealing with this kind of thing, so he suddenly had a hesitant expression on his face.
After all, Foreman Qu gave his brothers cigarette money, but it was not easy to break up with such acquaintances like these street gangsters who had not yet fully become a gangster.
"Brother Qiang, don't worry," Lu Yang's face was very calm. He looked at the confused Wei Zhiwu beside him, some dumbfounded loaders not far away, and the stunned Wei Xingguang outside, and said with a smile: "Today's matter is
We didn’t make it clear here, so maybe people have some misunderstandings.”
"Misunderstand?"
Hearing Lu Yang's words, Brother Qiang was refreshed. As long as someone is willing to take the responsibility, it will be easier. He repeatedly said: "It's just a misunderstanding!"
"It is indeed a misunderstanding. I will go over and talk to that brother."
Lu Yang nodded, walked up to the young loader with a smile, and said to him with an uncertain expression: "Please go back and talk to Foreman Qu. He is a relative of mine, and he also does this. Let's change our mind about this house."
Yes, I plan to decorate it myself. As for the order we signed before, we will pay as promised."
Naturally, it is impossible to sign a contract in these days. In many cases, there is no decoration contract. Because of this, the money is settled in stages. The decoration of Lu Yang's home has not officially started yet, and there are very few financial disputes between the two parties.
.
The young stevedore also understood that this was a polite statement and knew that the business was gone.
Although a piece of business is nothing to a popular decoration team like them, the key point is that if the news spreads, it will not only lose face, but future business may also be affected.
But the young man in front of me seemed to be very familiar with Brother Qiang and his gang.
At the moment, the young stevedore didn't dare to say anything more, his eyes rolled around, and he planned to go back and discuss it with Boss Qu.
Lu Yang didn't care about this small character. He walked up to Brother Qiang, took out a card of the Four Great Men and handed it over.
"this……"
Brother Qiang looked at the banknote and Peng Hongxiang, hesitantly.
"Hongxiang is my brother," Lu Yang smiled, put the money into Brother Qiang's hand, and said, "This money is for him to treat all brothers to a meal. Brother Qiang, please don't be polite to me."
"That's it, then I'll accept it?" Brother Qiang nodded and put the money away. Looking at the kid in front of him, his face looked much better.
Although one hundred yuan is not a lot, it is enough for a group of brothers to have a few hot pot meals in this day and age. Young people like them have no big goals when they come out to hang out. They just want to eat and drink to make themselves happy.
"Brother Hongxiang, I'll treat you to dinner when you have time!"
Lu Yang was outside the second building, waving his hands to send away a group of gangsters. At this time, Zhang Shufen and Li Yuzhen came up the stairs panting, and happened to pass by each other.
Zhang Shufen obviously saw the young stevedore with a gloomy face among them, and saw Lu Yang and the other three people opposite. She was immediately frightened and trotted over quickly.
"Yangyang, why are you here?"
Zhang Shufen's hand that was holding Lu Yang was shaking. Those people just didn't look like good people. She hurriedly asked: "What are those people doing?"
"Yes...yes, what's going on?" Li Yuzhen was also frightened, and her voice was trembling.
"Mom, Aunt Li, it's okay," Lu Yang said quickly, "I have made it clear that we will decorate this house ourselves."
"Ah?" Zhang Shufen was stunned, what is going on?
"Let's talk about it when we get back."
It was almost dark when a city bus happened to be driving up. Lu Yang took Zhang Shufen and Li Yuzhen to say goodbye, and got on the bus with Wei Zhiwu and Wei Xingguang.
After arriving at the Education Bureau, they bid farewell to Wei Xingguang, who thanked him repeatedly, and the three of them returned to their residence.
In the room, Wei Zhixiu had already prepared the meal. Several people ate first, and Wen Xiaoli obediently went to her room to study.
Wei Zhixiu cleaned up and washed the dishes. Zhang Shufen, who was in a slightly calmer mood, looked at Wei Zhiwu, who had an uneasy expression, and then at Lu Yang, who was helping Wei Zhixiu clear the table with a calm expression.
"What happened just now?" Zhang Shufen couldn't hold it in any longer, so she asked first.
"I don't understand either..." Wei Zhiwu touched his head and said, "Second aunt, you'd better ask Yangyang."
"Mom, you are covered in sweat." After clearing the bowls, Lu Yang came over, pulled Zhang Shufen up, and said, "Go and wash up first, and then we'll talk after you come out."
Zhang Shufen had no choice but to take a shower first with full of questions. When she came out, Wei Zhixiu had already washed the dishes and was sitting next to Lu Yang. Wei Zhiwu was sitting on the small stool opposite with a confused look on his face.
"Yangyang, what's going on?" Zhang Shufen wiped her hair and asked with a frown.
Lu Yang then told how he sent Wei Xingguang out and met the group of social youths. Of course, he said that Peng Hongxiang was Peng Hongliang's cousin, so that's why.
"Hong Liang's cousin?" Zhang Shufen was surprised, her face changed, and she said sternly: "Yang Yang, you are not allowed to associate with people like this in society in the future!"
"Yeah! I understand." Lu Yang nodded obediently, most afraid of his mother nagging him.
"Then you said we decorate it ourselves," Zhang Shufen then asked in confusion, "What's going on?"
"It's not urgent," Lu Yang shook his head and said, "What did you tell the foreman? How do you plan to decorate it?"
Zhang Shufen talked about it, and it turned out that it was not what Lu Yang expected. It was just based on the suggestions of simple, medium and luxurious.
The house in Lu Yang's family has a total area of 60 square meters. The other party's quotation is 3,000 for simple decoration, 6,000 for medium decoration, and more than 20,000 for luxurious decoration. Of course, if you have special requirements, you will have to pay more.
Zhang Shufen had known for a long time that luxury clothing was too expensive. She threw away the money spent on housing settlement and had less than 10,000 yuan in total, so she chose mid-range clothing early on.
After hearing this, Lu Yang nodded and said: "Mom, you are too impatient. There are at least hundreds of households in the whole factory being renovated now. These decoration teams can't make enough money. If you are not missing this order, the service attitude will naturally be bad."
alright."
"Hey, I wasn't introduced to you by your Aunt Qu. Who knew her relatives were so unreliable?"
Being complained by her son, Zhang Shufen looked a little aggrieved.
"Mom, take a look at this first," Lu Yang handed over the decoration magazine he bought, opened one of the pages, and said, "This is called modern simplicity. Can we decorate it like this?"
Zhang Shufen fell in love with the beautiful renderings in the magazine as soon as she saw them. Her eyes widened and she said, "Of course this is good!"
In these days, computers are still really high-tech, and drawing is also a professional skill. Naturally, the decoration team does not have such exquisite renderings, but only simple sketches and introductions.
Zhang Shufen came back to her senses and estimated that the decoration would have to be of such an effect, at least to a luxurious standard. She hesitated and said, "But it's too expensive. My family doesn't have that much money."
"Sister," Lu Yang raised his head, smiled at Wei Zhixiu, who had been sitting obediently, and said, "Bring me that envelope."
"Okay." Wei Zhixiu agreed obediently and handed over an envelope.
Zhang Shufen took it and looked at it. Inside was a passbook and a text message with a password. There was 10,000 yuan in the passbook.
Lu Yang had naturally read the contents of the letter. It was written by Zhu Xuezhi himself. He explained that the money had not been transferred some time ago and asked Zhang Shufen to install the phone as soon as the house was installed.
Seeing the uncertainty on Zhang Shufen's face, Lu Yang didn't say much. He knew that his mother had a knot in her heart, which could only be relieved slowly.
"Mom, look at this again."
Lu Yang, as if offering a treasure, took out a few pages of paper from his schoolbag and handed them to Zhang Shufen, who was confused, and smiled.
