The night was dark, and it was still quite some time before dawn. I was walking on the winding mountain road with a stick, and I looked back from time to time.
"Damn it, what kind of place is this! Why are there so few cars passing by!"
I calculated that on average, one car would arrive an hour, but no one was willing to take me. But I can’t blame them. Who dares to park on this winding road in the wild mountains?
Otherwise, the guy who drives a taxi is inexperienced. Under normal circumstances, in a place like this, a normal person would not stop for a stranger casually! If she didn’t stop, Xiaobai wouldn’t be able to find me!
But that guy was miserable too. He went on a long trip and didn’t earn enough to eat. So I gave him more than 10,000 yuan for selling cigarettes, and I still had a few thousand yuan left. Let’s pay for it! We won’t see each other again in the future.
.
Suddenly, two car headlights came from behind me, and I ran to the middle of the road and opened my hands.
There was a sound of brakes.
"You are looking for death! Don't you want to live anymore?"
A shirtless man with glasses and black tattoos all over his chest opened the door and got out of the car. He pointed at me and yelled curses.
I quickly said: "Brother! Please give me a lift! I've been walking for more than three hours! I'm going to the city!"
The other party did not speak, but suddenly pointed at me and said loudly: "Oh! We have met before! What did you call that...what the hell!"
As I got closer, I could see clearly the other person's face through the light.
What a coincidence! Not only have I met him before, but I also know him.
It’s Li Fei from Yinchuan Normandy three years ago!
I was overjoyed: "Brother Fei! It's me! Xiang Yunfeng! You must still remember Yu Wenbin!"
He clapped his hands and laughed: "I remember! You are the boy who followed Yu Wenbin back then!"
After chatting for a few minutes, I got into his pickup truck.
I haven’t seen him for a few years. Li Fei has changed a lot now.
"Brother Fei, why did you drive a truck? Where is your Normandy KTV?"
"Hey, don't mention it, it's hard to say anything!" He slowed down the car and sighed: "Two years ago, after the fall of the Jin brothers, there was a wave of severe crackdowns in Yinchuan. I didn't survive and was arrested. Later, I dispersed my family wealth and was finally sentenced.
I just came out a year and a half, a few months ago."
"Severe punishment? Then why is Aza okay?"
"Who did you hear that he was fine?"
"Aza said it himself! He said that the whole of Yinchuan is under his control! He is the King of Yinchuan!"
"It's just a bunch of bragging. If you listen to his nonsense, I'll be killed. What can he do to a little brat who betrays his brothers and licks the powerful? To be honest, from the first day he took office,
.I, Li Fei, have never admired him! I only admire people like Liu Zhiyuan!"
Li Fei turned around and said: "The bosses have been very aggressive in the past few years. Unless Zhang Xiaox of the hat bureau is transferred or quits, Yinchuan can be said to be just a clear water from now on. At most, there will be a few small fish and shrimps. In
It’s impossible to raise fish as big as the Jin brothers before.”
I frowned when I heard this, thinking that Yinchuan has changed so much. No matter how stupid people are in society, if the higher-ups are determined to get rid of you, it will only happen in a matter of minutes.
"Brother Fei, what are you doing now?"
Li Fei took a puff of cigarette and drove the car and said: "My family property worth millions was defined as illegal income for me, and it was all confiscated by me. If the three fat guys hadn't taken the blame for me at that time, I wouldn't be worth ten."
It won’t come out in twenty years.”
He added: "Brother, this means that surviving a catastrophe will lead to future blessings. I am very satisfied. Now I rent a stall in the market to sell seafood and fish products. I just came back from carrying frozen goods from other places and ran into you.
That’s it.”
Li Fei is young enough and relatively handsome in appearance. Although he now wears glasses and is more bookish, his manner and temperament, as well as the dragon tattoo on his chest, clearly show that he is not an ordinary citizen.
I looked at him and said, "Brother Fei, to be honest, I seem to see the shadow of Brother Zhiyuan in you."
"Brother, please pull him down! I will not follow Liu Zhiyuan's footsteps. Back then, his wife was so pregnant, and he went to find someone with a machete. He knew that there was a near chance of death in the road ahead, but he still kept going forward. I, Li Fei, admire him! But I
I won’t be like him! He’s so stubborn!”
"Why...."
Li Fei let out a long sigh.
There was silence in the car. Maybe both of us were reminiscing about the past. I wonder if sister-in-law Xiaoxia was doing well in Shandong? The money I left her should be enough.
Knowing that I had no place to live in Yinchuan, Li Fei warmly invited me to stay at his house for two days. Naturally, I couldn't ask for it. After all, there were still more than ten days before the agreed September 1st. Living in his house was better than living in that desert mine.
Ten days is a good idea, right?
We are not friends, but we are friends.
When a friend is in trouble, the other person will not hesitate to provide a helping hand. This was the style of the Yinchuan society back then.
I don’t ask you to repay me now. I just hope that one day in the future, when I am in trouble, brother, you can come out and help me.
I was only 18 years old in Yinchuan at that time, so my behavior was influenced by people like Brother Zhiyuan.
I also like to help friends, and I helped diodes before. In other words, I don’t ask for immediate reward, we are betting on the future.
But there is a prerequisite, you have to let me see the value! If you are a bastard, let alone help me, I won't even take care of you.
It was much faster to get on the bus, and we arrived in Yinchuan soon.
When I revisited my old place a few years later, I felt an indescribable feeling in my heart. Many familiar faces flashed through my mind, including the passionate Boss Bai, the quirky chick-footed lady, and the hotel owner’s daughter Xiaomiao.
..
It's been nearly four years, right? How are they doing?
To be honest, I don't know because the two parties have long since lost contact. Maybe they have already gotten married and had children.
Li Fei lived in an old community behind the power supply station. It was still dark, and from a distance I saw a slender young girl with slender legs waiting at the door.
I also have an impression of this girl, sister Li Fei. I met her once before. I forgot her name. I only remember that she drove a red Elysee and wore a black leather hat.
When she saw me getting out of the car, the girl was stunned for a moment.
"Brother! This is..."
I stretched out my hand and said with a smile: "Hello, little sister, we have met before. You drove me once before. Did you forget? I said I would give you a thousand yuan for the fare but you didn't ask for it."
She frowned and thought hard, and suddenly said loudly: "It's you! I remembered it! You are the skinny boy! You have changed so much!"
I smiled and said, "Sister, you have changed a lot and are becoming more and more beautiful."
Li Fei coughed, opened the carriage door, and whispered to me: "Be honest, if you dare to flirt with my sister, I will kill you."
I laughed and said I didn't dare.
Li Fei's sister is called Li Ping. She has beautiful features and a delicate appearance. It is her long legs that impressed me deeply. A girl's legs don't just have to be long, they have to be overall shape to look good.
She casually stopped there. She had long legs, a slim waist, and plump hips. Her waist-to-hip ratio was pleasing to the eye. As a normal man, I couldn't help but take a second look.
I helped unload the foam boxes, and Li Ping took an electronic scale and weighed the boxes one by one. Li Fei said: "It's almost done, sister. It's pretty much the same. If the frozen goods melt, they will definitely lose the scale. We don't need to be so serious."
Li Ping pinched her waist with both hands, raised her eyebrows and retorted: "How can that be okay! Brother! You are so easy to talk to! The ten boxes of pangasius you brought back last time were seven kilograms less than ours! If it weren't for me,
Found it! Can the wholesaler refund you the money for the seven pounds of fish?"
Li Fei's eyes darkened and he said, "Sister, it's my fault that I haven't allowed you to live a good life in the past two years."
"Brother, please don't say that! Although we have nothing now! But at least we feel at ease in our hearts! I believe that as long as we are willing to endure hardship, we will be able to live a good life in a few years!"
Li Fei'en said something, turned his head and wiped his eyes.
They have three large freezers at home. Li Fei said that when he has more money in the second half of the year, he will rent a house near the market and build a cold storage so that he doesn't have to travel back and forth. After we finish working together, I will stay at his house temporarily.
Come down.
The locals know that Li Fei's former Normandy was very good in Yinchuan, and his sister used to live a life like a young lady. Now Li Ping can accept her current situation with ease, without any airs or temper of a young lady. This is true.
Extremely valuable.
I have been to so many places, and if I have to say which city has the best impression of girls, it has to be Yinchuan!
Let me put it this way, girls from Yinchuan are suitable to be brought home as wives, and they can endure hardships better than girls from Sichuan. I remember that Tingting seems to be from the area around Yinchuan.
.....
On the third day after arriving in Yinchuan, Li Fei went to the fish market early in the morning. He asked me to take Li Ping to the new department store at that time. Li Ping did not work there, but rented a counter on the third floor to sell some natural crystals.
Little trinkets, we kept chatting on the way.
"Hey, my brother said your name is Xiang Yunfeng, right? I seem to be the same age as you."
"Same age? I'm a month older than you, so you still have to call me Brother Sheng."
"Tch, if you give me 10,000 yuan, I will call you brother."
"Put it down, I don't have a dime, you can scream if you like."
Her small counter on the third floor of the new department store is in the southeast corner. It is not in a good location and is in a dead end. The rent is relatively cheap, and she sells a lot of things.
I glanced at them and saw that they were all kinds of small crystals, including green ghost, hair quartz, pink quartz, citrine, citrine, smoky quartz, etc. There was no carving work, they were all simply polished. The key is that there was no crystal in them.
It's a plastic fake, all natural. Judging from the glossiness, I guess it's from the East China Sea.
"Okay, all these little rubbish you sell are real."
She immediately became unhappy and said: "Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand! My goods are not rubbish! I don't lie to people like those counters on the first floor! What I sell are genuine natural East China Sea crystals!"
"Okay! Your goods are good, so how is the business at your counter?"
She bit her lower lip tightly and stopped talking.
"Just how much do you sell these small pieces for?" I asked.
"More than twenty to a hundred."
I nodded and asked again: "Although it's a little rubbish, your supply channels are okay."
"Of course," she said with a smile, "I didn't spend any money to bring these crystals! My brother used to take care of the boss in Jiangsu, and the boss would send me several large bags of scraps every once in a while! The other party asked me to sell them out in
Let’s settle the payment with him! There are so many in my warehouse now that I can’t keep them anymore!”
I asked her to take me to see the small warehouse.
You don’t know it, but I was shocked when I saw it! There are so many colorful natural crystal scraps! There are dozens of sacks filled with them! At least a thousand kilograms!
"There are so many! They can't be piled up anymore! Sell them quickly!" I said.
She blushed and said anxiously: "I want to deal with it too! But the problem is that not many people want it!"
I thought for a while and said: "You don't know how to do business at all. You call me Brother Sheng and I will tell you how to do this kind of business."
"Brother! Brother! Brother!"
"Brother Xiang! Brother Feng! Good brother"
She shook my arm and said, "I'm almost bored to death! Please give me some advice, dear brother!"
Let me ask, which man can bear this?
When my heart broke out, I was ready to give everything I had to save her from the fire and water.
