The minibus stopped and bumped along the way. It took more than ten minutes to drive and it took more than half an hour to reach the foot of Victoria Peak.
"Crunch!"
The car door opened, and Li Yiqiang jumped out of the car lightly, standing on the roadside, looking at the scattered mansions around him and the green mountains in the distance, feeling the tranquility that was different from the busy city, and felt in a trance.
There is an illusion of being in two worlds.
"What's so good about a poor place? There's no place for birds to poop, and there's no place to buy a pack of cigarettes."
He grew up in a poor and backward mainland, but he didn't like the tranquility and tranquility very much. He preferred to stay in the noisy and prosperous steel jungle.
After pouting and poking around for a while, Li Yiqiang quickly found the way up the mountain, and then strolled along the road up the mountain. After walking for ten minutes, he arrived outside Chu Heng's mansion.
Chu Heng had just come back from fishing at this time and was squatting on the lawn with his butt sticking out, sorting out his fishing gear. Han Yu, who was being held by Sister Qing, looked curiously to the side, his big eyes darting around.
"Master Chu!" he shouted with a smile.
"Um?"
Chu Heng turned around when he heard the sound and saw that it was this boy. He couldn't help but be confused and asked: "Why are you here if you don't go to work? Is there something wrong?"
"Thank you, Brother Xing." Li Yiqiang opened the door and He Yixing, who welcomed him in, smiled, quickly came to Chu Heng and squatted down, scratched his head and said: "I came here to tell you that I don't intend to learn from him.
Shoemaker."
When Chu Heng heard this, he stopped and asked in surprise: "Your sister agreed?"
"Promise."
"Then where do you want to go? Let me see if I can make arrangements for you."
"Uh..." Li Yiqiang looked at his expression carefully and said, "Just... I won't bother you for now. I want to try to find a job by myself."
Hearing this, Chu Heng also vaguely guessed what their siblings were thinking. He frowned and glared: "I said you two sisters have something wrong with their brains, right? Who doesn't need help when they are away from home? When
My brother is somewhat capable now, isn’t it normal to help you?”
"I'm telling you that you can't go through it. Damn it, I've spent so much effort to find a master for you. Why don't you go if you say you won't go? If you don't go and give it a try! If I don't beat the shit out of you, it will count as your shit in the first three days.
clean!"
"Calm down, calm down, Master Chu. On the one hand, I don't want to trouble you. On the other hand, I really don't want to be a shoemaker. I want to make my own way," Li Yiqiang said hurriedly.
"You stupid dog doesn't know how to stink. With your brains, how can you break into your mother's business? If someone sells it, you have to pay for it." Chu Heng sneered.
"Then I also want to go out on my own. I'm already over 20 years old and I don't want to be taken care of by my sister like a child. I also want to take care of her so that she won't be so tired." Li Yiqiang's eyes were extremely firm.
"Tsk."
Meeting his gaze, Chu Heng licked his teeth and understood what he was thinking. It was nothing more than a man's stubborn self-esteem.
So after thinking about it, he said: "Okay, if you want to break in, go ahead, but don't be stupid and shoulder everything by yourself. If something happens that can't be solved, come to me quickly.
, if I’m not here, I’ll find your sister-in-law.”
"That's for sure, I'm not really stupid." Seeing that Chu Heng agreed to him, Li Yiqiang felt relieved.
"Aren't you stupid? I think you are a big idiot!" Chu Heng waved his hand with a look of disgust: "Gungun, go ahead and do what you have to do. Don't you want to make your own way? Why are you still hanging around here?
?”
"Hehe, I'm leaving then, Mr. Chu. I'll make money later, so I'll treat you to a team." Li Yiqiang said with a wink.
"Then you should earn more, Mr. Chu, I am very picky, and most people will look down on you."
"Guaranteed to satisfy you."
Li Yiqiang stood up, pinched the face of Han Yu who was looking at him with wide eyes, said goodbye to Chu Heng, and left the villa.
He walked down the mountain along the road, took a minibus back to the downtown area, and finally got off at Happy Valley. When Li Yiqiang arrived, he asked people in the car that there were several intermediary companies here that specialized in introducing people to jobs, as well as factory owners.
Will come here often to recruit workers.
After getting off the car, he asked someone again and quickly found the place.
But with no academic qualifications and no skills, how can he find a good job?
Li Yiqiang went through several agencies, and most of the jobs he could get were construction workers, dock porters, factory screwdrivers, and other jobs that didn't require much academic qualifications or skills.
Oh, there is an exception. One of the agencies saw that he looked good and had a good physique, so he encouraged him to become a young master, and it was said that he earned a lot of money.
But he left on the spot with a dark face.
In this way, Li Yiqiang, who had been wandering around and hitting a wall all morning, dragged his heavy steps to find a restaurant and ordered a barbecued pork rice. He planned to fill his stomach and take a rest before crossing the sea to take a look at Yau Ma Tei.
I just heard someone say that there is an insurance company over there that needs salespeople, and there are no academic requirements and they can earn a lot.
He was very hungry after running around all morning. After the waiter with a bad attitude brought what he wanted, he immediately started gobbling it down.
The barbecued pork rice in this restaurant is very good. After the barbecued pork is marinated and grilled, it is crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, sweet and salty, and rich in juice. When combined with the rice, the rice absorbs the grease and sauce of the barbecued pork and becomes
It's extremely fragrant and glutinous.
Li Yiqiang took one bite of rice and one bite of meat and quickly finished half of it. Because he ate too fast, he choked and quickly picked up the free tea and took a sip.
At this moment, I accidentally caught a glimpse of a diner who was being made difficult by the waiter because his wallet was stolen at some point and he was unable to pay the bill.
The other party was a chubby middle-aged man with sparse hair and few hairs. His clothes, which did not look expensive, were wrinkled and looked very sloppy.
"Come on, man, it's just a claypot meal. It costs three or four yuan. How can I default on the bill? My wallet was really stolen. I promise I will send you the money tomorrow, okay?"
"Don't say so much. Either you keep your clothes here or have someone send you money, otherwise you won't be able to leave."
"I have something urgent to do. I've been waiting for someone to send me money for a long time."
"Then take off your clothes."
"Push! I remember you!"
The man had no choice but to prepare to take off his clothes with a dark face.
Li Yiqiang couldn't stand it, so he said, "Hey, man, how much did he eat?"
When the two heard this, they turned around and the waiter said angrily: "Three and a half yuan, how about it? Do you want to pay for him out of kindness?"
The man cast a hopeful look.
"Then consider it mine and give it to us later." After saying that, Li Yiqiang lowered his head and continued eating.
"You are lucky to have met a kind man. Please be careful next time. If you dare to cheat again, I will break your legs!" The waiter could only give up after hearing this, rolled his eyes at the man, and turned around to greet other customers.
"Made, you look down on others!" The man cursed and glared at him, then walked quickly towards Li Yiqiang and said gratefully: "Thank you so much, little brother, otherwise I would have made a fool of myself."
"It's okay. When we go out, everyone encounters difficulties. You help me and I help you. It's normal." Li Yiqiang smiled nonchalantly.
"You're right, but there are very few people as loyal as you, brother. What's your phone number? Or give me your address. I'll...send the money to you tonight, and then I'll treat you to a drink."
"No, it's just a few dollars. Don't you have something to do? Go and get busy."
"You must give me what you want, and I must thank you properly." As he spoke, the man took out another business card: "Well, here is my contact information. If you need help in the future, just ask."
