Chapter 1387 Slipped out the back door

Wan Feng first came to Qin Suzhen's shop.

There are still more than twenty days left before the port is closed, and the shops on the small street are still open. They will persist until the last moment, until all the customers in the street have evacuated.

Wan Feng handed all the keys to the base to Qin Suzhen.

"Sister Qin, we're leaving soon. Please give these keys to that company when they come."

Qin Suzhen's eyes were filled with tears: "Brother Wan! Are you really leaving? I really don't want you to go. I don't know when we will see each other again after you leave."

"I have to go sooner or later. We will meet again in the future. When you want to sell your motorcycle in the future, remember to find me in Jiangwei. I will give you the best price."

"Okay, I'll remember that. I'll definitely come find you when the time comes."

"Give my regards to my brother-in-law."

Li Xiang is not here. He has been looking after the game hall these days. The clothing stall has been handed over to his younger brother and his wife.

His game hall is located in the west of Heihe City. When they first opened the game hall, Wang Zhonghai, Yang Pao and Qin Suzhen agreed that each of them would occupy one area, not interfering with each other, and everyone would do their own business.

The arcade now earns more than a thousand yuan a day, which is more profitable than his clothes, so of course he has to be in charge of it himself.

Outside Qin Suzhen's shop are Wang Zhonghai and Yang Pao's shops. Ever since the game hall was built, the hotel snack bar and other shops here have been taken care of by their subordinates.

But they are all here today, knowing that Wan Feng is leaving and are seeing him off.

Some of Wang Zhonghai and Yang Pao's younger brothers were also here. Usually when Wan Feng was at the base, he would often throw a few packs of good cigarettes to these people, and sometimes he would throw a few 1,800 yuan to cheer them up. Therefore, these people had a good relationship with Wan Feng and came to see him off.

A lot of things had been said at the banquet last night, so Wan Feng just patted Wang Zhonghai and Yang Pao on the shoulders a few times.

"Brother Wang, Brother Yang, let's go!"

"Brother, I'll take you to the airport."

Wan Feng waved his hand: "Even if you send me to Harbin, we still have to break up, right? This is fine, no need to send me off, goodbye!"

"Brother, I wish you a safe journey."

Wan Feng nodded and hailed two taxis outside the small street.

Seven people got into two taxis and headed for the airport.

"If you go back now, what will happen to Zang Yunli?"

Wan Feng asked Zheng Song who was in the same taxi, there were four people in their taxi: Han Guangjia, Yang Jianguo, Zheng Song and Wan Feng.

"We agreed that I would go back and clean up the house first, and pick her up during the Chinese New Year. She would work at Jiangwei from now on, and we would plan to get married around May Day next year."

It turns out that the two of them had planned it long ago.

"If Zang Yunli wants to work in Jiangwei, then you have to find a house in Jiangwei!"

"We are just planning to build a house in Jiangwei."

"There's a vacant house in the Dongshan neighborhood of Xiaoshutun. Go back and buy one. It's only around 18,000 yuan. It's perfect for the two of you to live in after you've cleaned it up."

The area where the Dongshan community is being built will be a residential area all the way to Zhoujia in the future. Wan Feng thinks it is a good place.

In the future, Nandashan will be developed into a natural park. That community will be right at the foot of Nandashan, and it will only take a few steps to stroll up the mountain.

"I thought so too. I'll buy it when I get back."

"Will your parents agree?"

"I don't care about their money. It's none of their business where I buy a house, right?"

Yes, having money means being arrogant.

"Brother Yang! What are your plans when you go back?" Wan Feng turned to Yang Jianguo.

Yang Jianguo smiled innocently: "I haven't thought about it yet. I'll go home and have some peace and quiet, rest and spend time with my family. I'll think about anything next year."

Yang Jianguo has hardly been home this year, so it's normal for him to have such thoughts.

Wan Feng had originally planned to ask Yang Jianguo if he was interested in traveling to the south with him before the New Year.

He had a hunch that this trip to the south might lead to some trouble.

But after hearing Yang Jianguo's answer, he was too embarrassed to speak.

At 11:00 am on December 7, Wan Feng and his group left Heihe by plane.

The plane landed at Harbin Airport at around 1 o'clock, and Wan Feng, Yang Jianguo, Han Meng and Zhao Gang said goodbye.

They decided to take the train back to Changchun to save money.

These three country bumpkins!

Wan Feng repeatedly told them that if they really couldn't find a good job after the New Year, they should go to Hongya to find him.

Wan Feng was in a hurry to go back. He had to go to Shenzhen but didn't have time to squeeze into the train.

Originally, he didn't even have time to visit Zhan Honggui.

That afternoon they boarded a direct flight to Bohai and arrived at Bohai Zhoushui Airport at around four o'clock in the afternoon.

After staying in Bohai for one night, the four people returned to Jiangwei at noon the next day.

After getting off the bus at Wankou, Zhang Xian and Han Guangjia went back to their respective homes, while Zheng Song got off the bus at Hongya.

Wan Feng did not go home but went directly to the Nanwan Factory. He wanted to see if all the things he had shipped had been returned.

There is a long and narrow open space behind the garment factory and Uncle Wan Feng's Shuiming Hardware Factory and between the ridge of Nandawan and Xiwan. The trucks that Wan Feng brought back were parked here one by one.

This time the two K700 tractors were parked at this location.

Wan Feng counted and found that all twelve trucks were here.

He had seen the trucks, but he hadn't seen the chemical equipment and the large boxes containing steelmaking technology.

Wan Feng was anxious to check out these things so he did not enter the garment factory but entered the Nanwan Factory through the alley between the garment factory and the Nanwan Factory.

"Director, I just saw someone. Guess who it is?"

A female worker working on the third floor of the garment factory said with a smile to Luan Feng who had just walked into their workshop.

"Good job, Bai Shuqing, you went to the window to look at the boy again during work hours."

This girl is just not good. She likes to go and see the boy when she has nothing to do. Sometimes she even runs to the window to see him while she is at work.

Luan Feng planned to transfer her to the sewing workshop on the first floor so that she couldn't see it.

"Director, I get dizzy after looking at the sewing machine for too long."

"Dizzy! How come I don't feel dizzy when you watch a guy for hours?"

"Director! I was at the back window just now. Didn't I see where the guy behind him came from?"

Not far behind is the mountain range of Xiwan, which is now covered with withered trees. Which young man would be so stupid as to stay on the mountain range in such cold weather?

"Although I didn't mean to see the young man, I still saw him. I saw Director Wan."

"Who did you see?"

"Director Wan!"

"Did you see a ghost? You saw it before I did?"

"Really? Director, I thought I was seeing things at first, so I rubbed my eyes hard. After that, I could see clearly. It was indeed Director Wan. He had been looking at the cars for a long time and even reaching out to touch them."

Bai Shuqing pulled Luan Feng to the window.

From this high vantage point, you can clearly see the cars outside the back wall of the garment factory.

A question popped up in Luan Feng's head. The dead man was back? Why didn't he come to the garment factory to see him?

He actually slipped past the back of the garment factory!
