Haishi, after years of changes, has become today's economic, industrial, and manufacturing capital.
It is also the latest city to integrate with international trade.
The undercurrent of capital is surging, some people are singing and singing day and night, and some are busy making a living.
Behind the bustling and rich market, there is always countless bitterness and helplessness.
Lin Chuan walked out of the airport alone. This time he didn't take anyone with him.
Because in Haishi, as long as you have money, you can buy all the resources here.
Although the current sea city is not as prosperous and magical as it will be a few decades ago, it can still be regarded as a super city among existing cities.
After all, it also continues some of the architecture and culture left behind by the capital powers.
So you can see all kinds of strange shops everywhere, as well as countless daily necessities and commodities.
On the most prosperous commercial road, the advertising image of the Mengying brand is in a very prominent position, and the Mengying brand special image store is also crowded with customers, with an endless stream.
Haishi's sales have always been among the best. After all, Haishi's per capita consumption is relatively high, and people here also pursue brands and grades.
But Lin Chuan just stood at the door and glanced into the store.
The waiter who was sorting out the goods accidentally saw Lin Chuan at the door and felt that this person seemed particularly familiar.
As if she suddenly remembered something, she immediately went to look at the Mengying brand development promotional materials, and there was a photo of Lin Chuan on the first page.
The waiter's eyes suddenly widened, and when he looked at the door again, Lin Chuan had already left.
Seeing the shock on her face, the store manager came over and asked, "What's wrong with you? What are you looking at?"
The waiter clicked on Lin Chuan's photo and said in surprise: "I seem to see Lin Chuan, standing at the door!"
The store manager also looked back and saw that Lin Chuan was nowhere to be seen, so he said teasingly: "I think you are thinking that Lin Chuan is crazy. How could such a big boss do it by himself?"
I think you are just blinded, so hurry up and sort out all those goods, the boss will bring some goods later!"
The waiter also felt that the man might just look like Lin Chuan, but he definitely couldn't be Lin Chuan. Maybe he was really blinded.
Thinking of this, she laughed to herself and continued working.
Lin Chuan came here not to see the image store, but to see Ni Fangling.
When I met Ni Fangling, it was also a few years later. Although I knew Ni Fangling's address in Haishi at that time, it is still difficult to find it now.
Because many old lanes are being demolished to form new communities in the future.
Lin Chuan could only rely on his memory, took a taxi, and arrived in front of a dormitory building.
This dormitory is the unit dormitory of Haishi Switch Factory. It is an old six-story building with open-air stairs and corridors filled with clothes.
The corridors are also filled with stoves from every household and some used items. Even pedestrians have to turn sideways to pass.
Housing in Haishi in this era is very tight, especially after the full opening of the commercial economy, a large number of outsiders and locals have flocked to the urban area, and there are simply not enough houses to live in.
Not everyone can afford a house. Being able to be assigned a house by your employer is already very enviable.
At this time, a woman buying groceries happened to pass by. Lin Chuan asked politely: "Comrade, what floor is Ni Fangling's house on?"
The lesbian first looked at Lin Chuan like a small citizen, and then smiled and said: "Sir, he is so handsome. I wonder how old he is? I know he is a college student. He is in the second to last room on the second floor. !”
Lin Chuan is not very good at understanding these dialects, but at least Ni Fangling still lives here.
So he said thank you and walked to the second floor.
The woman said "drizzle", turned around and started talking about Lin Chuan with the women who were washing vegetables by the sink.
When he arrived at the door of the penultimate room on the second floor, Lin Chuan wanted to knock on the door, but he heard a quarrel coming from the room.
The person who spoke was a middle-aged man, with a very angry tone.
"Director Hu, are you being too bullying? I have worked in the factory for more than ten years, and I finally got this fifty-square-meter house.
For the sake of this house, I gave up my professional title to others. My daughter has just graduated from college and hasn’t even found a job yet. My parents are getting older and I and my wife have to take care of them.
You are going to take this house back to others, and are you going to let our family of five sleep on the street?"
Director Hu immediately started speaking in official tone.
"Guodong, how can you say that we are bullying others? This is also the factory's decision. You are also an old comrade in the factory. You must have a spirit of dedication, right?
Now the factory has put all its resources on technical engineers. Look, Engineer Sun is getting married now, but he doesn’t even have a new house.
You are just an ordinary worker. At this time, you have to shine, meet the needs of others first, and then think about your own needs. You give your house to others and use it as a laborer.
In this way, Mr. Sun will have the motivation to create more value for the factory. Now everyone has their own problems, so you can solve them by yourself. The factory can't always care about you, right?"
Ni Guodong said angrily: "Then why don't you donate? Don't think I don't know that Mr. Sun is the nephew of the factory director. You call him an engineer, but what does he know?"
I can’t even twist a screw, so I didn’t give you gifts. Now you just give me little shoes to wear, and whoever wants to move can move. Anyway, I won’t move, unless you fire me!”
Director Hu was also anxious and said loudly: "Ni Guodong, don't go too far. I am the director of the factory. How can you talk to me like this?
Don’t think we won’t fire you, the factory has already taken good care of you, and I’m telling you, this time you have to move whether you want to move or not!”
"You, get out of here, I won't move!"
Ni Guodong was so angry that his words were incoherent, and Ni Fangling's voice immediately sounded.
"Dad, don't be angry. You have high blood pressure and heart disease. You can't be so angry. If you have anything to say, let's talk it over!"
Director Hu also knew that Ni Guodong had a hot temper and was stubborn, so he stood up and said: "Anyway, I'll give you a week. Sun Gong is getting married next month, so you can't delay him!"
"Get out, get out!"
When the door opened, Director Hu glared at Lin Chuan coldly and arrogantly, snorted coldly and left with his hands behind his back.
At this time, Ni Fangling also saw Lin Chuan outside the door, so she pulled the door and asked softly and gracefully: "Sir, who are you looking for?"
The moment Lin Chuan saw Ni Fangling, his mind went back to the scene when he first met Ni Fangling in his previous life.
At that time, Ni Fangling was already thirty years old, but now Ni Fangling is still so young and beautiful.
So Lin Chuan smiled calmly and said, "You must be Ni Fangling!"
