Chapter 459 Decision

The gate of Yangzhi Wuyi College opened. The security guard raised his hand to salute and watched as a Gard car slowly entered the college.

Chen Chuan drove the car behind the steering wheel. It was the New Year holiday and all the teachers and students were on vacation. There was no one on the road except the security guards. There was a thin layer of snow on the treetops and eaves on both sides.

Walking along the road, we soon arrived at the edge of Chunqiu Lake, and the dormitory building on one side came into view.

Less than half a year had passed since he'd last been here, and most of his former classmates had graduated. The dorm supervisor was definitely still around, though; he was still waiting for a pension increase.

After passing Chunqiu Lake, we continued driving inward until we arrived at the lakeside residential area behind which belongs to the college teachers.

When he was studying at school, he went to Cheng Zitong's home several times. Most of the time he taught in the practice room in his dormitory, and occasionally went to other practice halls.

Because the snow stopped a few days ago, the sun was shining brightly at the moment. Outside the cleaned open-air courtyard, two old men were sitting at a stone table playing chess.

They saw a car coming and looked over there.

One of them said, "Whose teacher's relative is this again? I've never seen him before."

"Look at where we're going..." Another old man glanced ahead, "We're going to Director Cheng's house."

"Hey, the number of people visiting Director Cheng's house for New Year's greetings has never stopped since the beginning of the year. Those in charge of logistics are so popular, but we can't do that. We're just old bones that can't be broken, and there's not much flesh left. No one cares about us."

"You're selling spare ribs, but who would want one like you? There haven't been so many people coming to the Cheng family in the past few years. There was even one from Central City a few days ago. It's said that they were from the Cheng family who came to see him specifically."

"This is a rare thing. It's been so many years. The father and son have been at odds for so many years. Is it Mr. Cheng who gives in first this time?"

"It's hard to say. I think they're probably here because he taught a good student."

"The one that went to Central City?"

"Joining the Central City Processing Bureau, what a prestigious position! I came back half a year ago, and I heard it was a pretty high position. In a few years, I think the principal will give me some respect."

"No wonder Director Cheng has become so much healthier this past year. Anyone would have to eat a few more bowls of rice."

At this time, the car stopped in front of the yard. When the door opened, they saw a handsome and tall young man in a military coat and uniform walking down from it.

One of the old men said, "Old Qian, that student of Supervisor Cheng you were talking about is him, right?"

"Yes, it should be."

"This uniform looks unusual to me..."

The two of them squinted their eyes and looked at each other from a distance, and then their hearts skipped a beat at the same time.

Not only did they recognize the uniform, but as soon as they looked over, they could sense an indescribable aura about the young man.

The aura connection between fighters is very sensitive. Although the opponent did not look back, they all felt at that moment that their skin seemed to be pricked by needles and their hair stood up.

The two old men looked at each other.

"Manager Cheng is an incredible student."

Cheng Zitong was the deputy director of logistics, so he was responsible for the security guarding the gate. He was notified early in the morning. When he saw Chen Chuan coming, he immediately opened the door and saluted him.

Chen Chuan nodded and walked in with the gift. Just as he crossed the front hall, he saw Cheng Zitong coming out. Compared with half a year ago, the teacher's belly looked bigger, and he was full of energy. It seemed that he ate well and slept well.

"Little messenger is here, come in, come in. Oh, if you come, what are you bringing with you?"

Chen Chuanshuo said: "It's just a small token of my appreciation from my students."

"Okay, teacher, I won't be polite with you anymore." Cheng Zitong looked at him for a few times, his eyes suddenly shining. "You are wearing this uniform, so you are the executive team leader? When did you get promoted?"

Chen Chuanshuo said: "It wasn't long, just two months."

"Okay, okay." Cheng Zitong seemed even happier, not knowing what he was thinking. "Well, this uniform fits you well. It should be worn by you. Come in and sit down."

Chen Chuan followed him inside. The layout of this courtyard was similar to that of his teacher's house, both of which were in an old-fashioned style. When he reached the flower hall, he took the teapot that Cheng Zitong held out and said, "Teacher, let me do it."

After the tea was brewed, Chen Chuan handed it to Cheng Zitong and then sat down.

Cheng Zitong, holding a steaming cup of tea, sighed and said, "Teacher, I know it's not easy to get promoted in Central City. If it were another student, I would have to advise them not to work so hard. But I know you are a student who knows your own limits, so there's no need for me to tell you too much."

Chen Chuan smiled and said, "Teacher, I remember all your teachings from the past."

Cheng Zitong's round face was full of smiles. He put down his teacup and said, "Xiaochuan, tell the teacher about your recent time in Central City."

Chen Chuan nodded.

The teacher and the student sat in the flower hall drinking tea and chatting. During this time, guests arrived one after another, but they just visited briefly, put down their gifts, and left.

Chen Chuan had lunch here at noon and stayed until around three or four in the afternoon. Seeing it was getting late, he got up and said goodbye. Cheng Zitong saw him off to the door and watched him get in the car and leave before returning home.

When he got to the inner room, he thought for a moment, picked up the phone and dialed a number.

"Hey, Brother, I'll come see you later... Can't I come see you after New Year's greetings? When did we brothers become so distant? Oh, you have to go out for something..."

After hanging up the phone, Cheng Zitong chuckled, "Going out? Why are you going out at this time? If you don't let me come, I won't come."

He took a sip of tea, picked up a box of gifts that had been prepared long ago, and walked out slowly.

After visiting Cheng Zitong, Chen Chuan returned to his aunt's house. A few days later, he went out and reunited with old classmates including Ding Jiao.

This year's winter does not seem to be as cold as in previous years, so the originally planned activities such as skating and skiing were cancelled. Instead, we went for a ride in a two-wheeled vehicle together and went to the newly opened archery hall in the city center to shoot arrows.

Archery is not taught in Wuyi, because the upper limit of ordinary bows and arrows is there. Not only is it inconvenient to carry, but it also requires certain skills to use. It is better to use a pistol or throw it with bare hands, which has better accuracy and greater power.

However, it is still very good for entertainment and exercise. As a fighter, Chen Chuan only needs to know the technique of exerting force and practice it a few times to get the hang of it. But when he came out to play with everyone, he didn't act too excessively.

In fact, after becoming a fighter, except for some entertainments that require special skills, ordinary physical activities are almost no difficulty for him.

After relaxing with his classmates for a few days, on the 14th, Chen Chuan came to the Duyi Hotel to have dinner with Wei Changan and others. When he arrived, all the people who had come last time were also there.

After ordering the food, Wei Changan said, "Junior, remember the last time you told us about Central City, I, Brother Wei, have discussed with everyone and decided to go to Central City after the New Year to try our luck."

Chen Chuan smiled and said, "Brother Wei, this is a good thing."

He has always been encouraging about this. Yang Zhi's ceiling is here. It is a waste of talent for Wei Changan and others to stay here. Not only can their fighting ability not be improved, they will probably be clients for the rest of their lives. On the contrary, they can achieve something in the central city.

And before the big bomb is about to come, the world inside and outside is constantly changing, and the class boundaries that existed before can be crossed more easily.

Cai Si said: "In fact, we are not the only ones who plan this. As far as I know, many commissioned teams have gone to the central city recently.

Ever since the collapse of Molan Company and the fall of the Bloodstain Gang, the Iron Chain Gang has been doing business honestly. The Police Bureau, under the leadership of Director Guan, has been strictly controlling public security in the city, and there is almost nothing happening in the city.

Although there are still many things going on outside the city, the smuggling channels to Yangzhi have also been severely cracked down several times. Now, apart from fighting with the armed groups in the wilderness, there are almost no major commissions. "

He shook his head and said, "There's only so much meat, and so many people are eyeing it. Instead of fighting over it here, we might as well find another place."

Several people in their team felt the same way, even Ren Xiaotian, who rarely spoke, nodded silently.

Wu Han and Wei Dong exchanged a puzzled glance. Was there a lack of commissions? Was there? Why didn't we notice?

Cai Si saw what they meant and said helplessly, "You all accept commissions in the wilderness. Who is as picky as you? Of course you won't feel that you are not getting enough."

The commissioning companies particularly like people like Wu Han and Wei Dong, who will do anything they are commissioned to do, never asking about the difficulty. In addition, some commissioning teams also like to deal with these two people who are brave and like to be at the forefront. Every time they can invite them, the success rate of the commissioned tasks will rise sharply.

It is estimated that they will not be short of commissions until all the armed gangs in the wilderness are killed.

Wu Han said, "Weidong and I work very well together. Weidong has gone to study at Wuyi General Hospital." He then looked at Feng Xiaoqi and Luo Kaiyuan beside him and asked, "I heard that Junior Brother Feng and Junior Brother Luo are going with you?" Seeing that they both nodded, he said distressedly, "Then I'll be alone. Why not go to the Central City as well?"

Chen Chuan then said, "Central City offers many opportunities, and the resources it can obtain far exceed those of Yangzhi. Central City calls the surrounding cities "peripheral cities," and while this is a derogatory term, the gap between the two is clear. If you are determined to move higher, that's the only place you can get what you want."

He paused and said, "I've now established myself somewhat in the Central City. If you guys come to the Central City, I can still help you."

If his team could only recruit people who had signed a confidentiality agreement or were already from the fusion area, he would have recruited that person into his team, but there might be opportunities in the future.

Wei Changan's expression became more serious, and he said, "Junior brother, you're right. I'm being shameless, Wei. We're unfamiliar with the Central City, so I have to rely on you to take care of us."

Chen Chuan nodded and said, "I believe that with the abilities of you, Brother Wei and Brother Si, you will be able to stand firm wherever you go."

Wu Han slammed his hand on the table, raised his head and chest and said, "It's decided. I'm going to Central City after the New Year!"

He said to Chen Chuan, "Junior Chen, see you in Central City. I'll toast you a glass." As he said that, he stood up and raised the glass on the table.

Following his action, everyone present raised their glasses and stood up.

Chen Chuan smiled slightly and stood up as well. He picked up the cup in front of him and said, "Okay, I'll wait for you all in Central City."
