At 4:30 in the afternoon, Lin Jianshe put his hands in his pockets, lowered his head, and kicked the stones on the roadside out of boredom.
He was waiting until half past five, then he went to the supply and marketing cooperative where Liu Qin worked, picked her up after get off work, and went home together.
That's right, he didn't go to class. He had already pretended to go out with Liu Qin. After they parted at the fork in the road, he went straight to the park.
I lay on a stone bench in the park for most of the afternoon, bought a pancake from a roadside pancake stall, and then wandered around, slowly wandering to the supply and marketing cooperative where Liu Qin's class was.
"Lin Jianshe."
Hearing someone calling him, Lin Jianshe turned around and saw a man wearing frog-eye glasses, a floral shirt, bell-bottom pants, big-toed leather shoes, and a leather bag under his arm.
Who is this person?
The man took off his sunglasses and said, "Why, you don't recognize me? I'm Hao Jiannan."
Lin Jianshe's eyes widened in shock, "Hao Jiannan? You are Hao Jiannan!"
Hao Jiannan was his junior high school classmate. He was very cowardly and sat in the last row of the classroom. He was fourteen or fifteen years old and still had two big snotty noses. They all affectionately called him Hao Big Nose and often played tricks on him when they were in school.
After I graduated from middle school, I never saw him again.
The classmate who used to be the most cowardly in the class now appeared in front of him as a successful person. This had a great impact on Lin Jianshe.
"Have I changed that much? You can't even recognize me."
Hao Jiannan raised his hand and touched his hair, revealing the gold watch on his wrist. The sun just happened to shine on his watch, stinging Lin Jianshe's eyes.
"You, is this a Rolex?" Lin Jianshe asked while looking at his watch.
Although he did not own a Rolex, or even a watch, he knew Rolex.
Because their factory director has one, and I heard from colleagues in the factory that a Rolex watch, even the worst one, costs eight or nine hundred yuan.
This is not something that can be bought with money; it requires foreign exchange coupons.
Hao Jiannan poked his cheek with his tongue, looked at the watch on his wrist and said, "You have good taste. You can recognize this as a Rolex."
"Our factory manager has a Rolex, but it's not as good as yours."
Hao Jiannan shook his head and said, "That's right. I can't buy it in the mainland. It's more than two yuan."
hiss--
Lin Jianshe took a deep breath. More than two dollars? He couldn't earn more than two dollars in five years.
"Jiannan, where did you get so much money?"
Hao Jiannan shook his head nonchalantly, "I did some small business in the south, I didn't make a fortune, but I made a few tens of thousands of dollars."
Lin Jianshe's eyes widened. "A few tens of thousands of dollars is not considered a fortune? Then how much is considered a fortune?"
Hao Jiannan is really rich now, and he is becoming more and more arrogant.
"It's really hot today." Hao Jiannan unbuttoned his shirt, pulled at the collar and shook it, revealing the big gold chain inside.
Gold chain!
Lin Jianshe's eyes widened.
"I've been working for a year, but I've only made a few tens of thousands of yuan. My cousins who entered the industry earlier than me have made hundreds of thousands of yuan."
Hundreds of thousands!
Lin Jianshe's pupils trembled.
"Jiannan, we are all old classmates. Now that you have made a fortune, don't just take your old classmates to eat meat, take them to drink soup as well."
Lin Jianshe looked at Hao Jiannan in a flattering manner.
He couldn't even do a single day of that menial job of sweeping toilets in the garment factory.
It was not only because he cleaned the toilet, but also because he had lost his place in the advanced factory. At the end of the year, everyone in the factory would lose two yuan in bonus. For the two yuan, the people in the factory acted as if he had killed their mothers. They hated him and spat on him when they passed by him.
Hao Jiannan is doing so well now, if he can help him make money, he won't have to do that crappy job anymore.
Although he had played a prank on Hao Jiannan before, the fact that Hao Jiannan greeted him with a smile showed that he didn't take it seriously.
Hao Jiannan glanced at Lin Jianshe and said, "I heard from my former classmates that you are working in a garment factory. You already have a formal job, so why do you want to follow us who don't have formal jobs and can only do small businesses to make money?"
Lin Jianshe: "What's the point of taking that little salary? It's only a few hundred yuan a year. It's so boring."
"Jiannan, please take care of me. I will definitely remember your kindness when I make money."
Hao Jiannan held his chin with his hand, frowned, and looked very conflicted. "Forget it. You can't do our job. Forget it. But it's fate that we met. Let's have dinner together tonight. I'll treat you."
Lin Jianshe: "I'm going to pick up my wife from get off work. Can I ask her to come with me?"
Judging from Hao Jiannan's expression, it's not impossible to take him along. Later, when they have dinner and drink some wine, he will talk to Jiannan about it. Maybe Jiannan will agree.
Hao Jiannan was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile, "Sure."
When they arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative where Liu Qin worked, Lin Jianshe asked Hao Jiannan to wait outside while he went in.
"Qinqin."
Liu Qin was leaning against the counter, picking at her fingernails. When she saw Lin Jianshe coming, she asked curiously, "Why are you here so early today?"
It’s five o’clock now.
"I'm on a field trip." Lin Jianshe said, "By the way, I met an old classmate, and he invited us to dinner. Can you leave work early and not keep us waiting?"
"What old classmates?" Liu Qin asked.
Lin Jianshe pointed at Hao Jiannan who was standing outside and said, "Junior high school classmate."
Liu Qin looked in the direction of his finger, her eyes flickering, "Your old classmate seems to be doing well."
Lin Jianshe lowered his voice and said, "People who do business in the south, once they get rich, don't care about tens of thousands of dollars. Their watches are all Rolexes that cost more than two yuan, and the gold necklaces around their necks are this thick." He stretched out his little finger.
"Is it so profitable to do business in the South?" Liu Qin widened her eyes and felt that the floral shirt outside was a lot too big for her.
"Isn't it? I want to see if I can get him to take me with me. Please be nicer to him when we eat later."
Liu Qin rolled her eyes at him and asked, "When have I ever been rude to anyone?"
…
Liu Qin got off work early, and when she got there, Lin Jianshe introduced himself to them, and then she went to the state-owned restaurant with Hao Jiannan.
When they arrived at the restaurant, Hao Jiannan directly booked a private room and ordered six dishes.
"Do you have any red wine here?" Hao Jiannan asked the waiter.
"No."
Hao Jiannan sighed, "Why isn't there even any red wine? Then give me a bottle of Moutai."
Waiter: "놚Ticket."
Hao Jiannan shook his head and said, "This is the bad thing about the mainland. You can't do anything without paying. In Pengcheng, I drink French red wine and eat Australian steak."
"Forget it, let's have a bottle of Erguotou."
"Twenty dollars in total." The waiter wrote the bill.
Without any hesitation, Hao Jiannan took out a stack of banknotes from his wallet, took out two from the Great Unity and handed them to the waiter in a very cool manner.
Lin Jianshe and Liu Qin stared with wide eyes. The stack of big unity notes was very thick, probably weighing one or two taels.
What kind of family is this? They always carry a few dollars in their door bags.
Lin Jianshe and Liu Qin were very excited.
Lin Jianshe: I must convince Jiannan to take me with him.
Liu Qin: We must let Jianshe and Jiannan work together.
