Hou Afa's daughter Hou Xiaoqin looks nothing like her father.
She is small in stature, has long hair and big eyes, and she looks quite cute. At least from Zhang Tiegen's side, there is really no trace of Hou Afa in her body.
However, Hou Xiaoqin and Zhang Caixuan seemed to have a good relationship. The two little girls were whispering to each other, and mostly Hou Xiaoqin was comforting Zhang Caixuan.
This little girl is still very smart and sensible.
When Zhang Caixuan and Hou Xiaoqin were making friends, Zhang Tiegen was also bored and started to make smoking friends with Hou Afa.
Zhang Tiegen took out his signature box of 3.5-dollar Hardman cigarettes and threw a cigarette to Hou Afa.
After Hou Afa caught the cigarette, his eyes lit up when he saw the smoke.
Isn't this Hademan?
I heard that it is very rare to see cigarettes used by migrant workers in the city now!
Hou Afa looked in surprise at the Zhang Tiegen who was much younger than him.
This young man actually smokes a cigarette that he only smoked twenty years ago?
After thinking about Deputy Director Gao of the Wulong County Police Department and calling him "chief", Hou Afa had to admit:
Well, as expected, the more high-end people are, the more characterful they are in doing things! Well, I must learn from others more in the future! I will also buy a box when I go out! Then I will meet people and take out one
Once you throw it away, no one will recognize that it is Hardman's. I will explain it later. Compared with the common vulgar red pandas and the like, it is really more respectable!
Zhang Tiegen put Hardman into his mouth, bit the cigarette butt and said, "Mr. Hou, do you know what kind of cigarette this is? Many people are not used to smoking it, but I like the taste of this stuff. It's very strong, better than those yellow cigarettes."
The Helou specials are much more interesting when they cost hundreds of dollars per package."
Hou Afa chuckled and looked at the Hardman in his hand with great nostalgia!
I recall that when he first came out of the countryside to mingle in the outside world, he was not the rich man he is today, he was just a migrant worker working for others on construction sites.
At that time, the price of a pack of Hardmen was only 20 cents.
Now that I have become a rich man, the past has long been forgotten by the daily entertainment. Unexpectedly, after seeing this Hard Gate, the past is suddenly vivid in my mind.
Hou Afa must have some emotion in his heart, he laughed and said: "Back then, I actually used to have a pack of these Hardman's cigarettes every day. Unexpectedly, after so many years, these cigarettes are still sold in the market.
!I don’t even know.”
"Hehehehe..." Zhang Tiegen said with a hearty smile, "I have distributed cigarettes to many people, but not many people recognize Hardman! It seems that you were also born in poverty before."
"That's right! Back then I was just a migrant worker who carried work for others on the construction site." Hou Afa seemed to have found a confidant and chuckled. He quickly took out his lighter and stepped forward to light a cigarette for Zhang Tiegen.
Zhang Tiegen lowered his eyes and looked, well, Hou A found out that he has become rich now, and he is indeed a migrant worker who has become a rich man! Even the lighters are made by Zippo, and each one costs a thousand yuan!
Damn it, use a lighter that costs 1,000 yuan to light a 17.5 cent cigarette?
No matter how I think about Zhang Tiegen, I feel full of contradiction.
Sure enough, the one-dollar grinding wheel lighter he bought on the road was still in his trouser pocket. It looks more harmonious when used together with the Hardman!
After Hou Afa lit a cigarette for Zhang Tiegen, he also had to light a cigarette himself.
"No, no..." Zhang Tiegen quickly stopped Hou Afa and said, "I can't use your Zippo, it's too disharmonious. Come on, come on, use mine, this grinding wheel lighter made in Wenzhou, it will be harmonious. Otherwise, it will be harmonious."
It always feels a little weird when you smoke Demen."
Grinding wheel? Hou Afa didn't understand for a while and asked: "What is a grinding wheel lighter? Is it expensive?"
Zhang Tiegen had a piece of Hardman in his mouth and almost laughed out loud and blew out the cigarette. He was really a rich man and he didn't even know that something like this cost one yuan a piece!
This shows how out of touch these local tycoons are with the masses.
When Zhang Tiegen took out a lighter that sold for one yuan on the street with a liquid inside, a plastic shell and a grinding wheel on top, Hou Afa finally realized that it was this kind of lighter!
Then I thought, well, this chief's life is really very particular. Even if he just smokes a cigarette, he has such strict requirements for lighters. He must use this kind of lighter to be harmonious!
Hey, the interest of these high-end people is indeed very high! I learned it again today!
"Here, I'll light it for you, and then you can try it out!" Zhang Tiegen said with a smile, and with a click, Zhang Tiegen's thumb hit the grinding wheel, and the fire was immediately ignited.
Hou Afan is also a smoker. If someone lights up for you, this is definitely a sign of friendship!
Immediately flattered, he leaned over, took a deep breath, and took two puffs, and the Hardman in his mouth ignited.
Then, an extremely thick and familiar taste from the past suddenly filled his lungs.
"Huh..." Hou Afa raised his head and exhaled the smoke quietly, suddenly feeling relaxed and happy!
I couldn't help but praise Zhang Tiegen: "Mr. Zhang, this feels really good! This Hardman and a grinding wheel lighter like yours are really a perfect match!"
Zhang Tiegen smiled sheepishly and said: "Yeah, it's the most harmonious way to feel the never-ending and burning flames! I'm not wrong about you, you are indeed a knowledgeable person."
Hou Afa suddenly felt trembling after being praised by Zhang Tiegen.
At the dinner with Deputy Director Gao that day, Hou Afa had already discovered that Chief Zhang Tiegen was very easy-going. When he met him today, he seemed even more easy-going.
It's not like the ordinary officials who are as big as sesame seeds and mung beans. With a little power in their hands, they always feel like they are the best in the world, and they have to listen to him wherever they go!
Hou Afa suddenly felt that he was very close to Zhang Tiegen, and asked with a smile: "By the way, where did you buy your cigarettes and lighter?"
Zhang Tiegen chewed on his cigarette and said, "There are so many places to buy it! I just bought this at a newsstand on the street."
"Oh, oh, when I go out later, I will also buy a bag of Hardman and a lighter with this kind of grinding wheel. Hey, these two things, you said, they feel so matched when used together.
What about harmony?" Hou Afa said with some envy as he looked at the cigarette and lighter that Zhang Tiegen was still holding in his hand.
"That's right!" Zhang Tiegen said with a smile: "By the way, Mr. Hou, if you are not in a hurry to leave, you might as well stay and watch a good show."
