Before going to Yangcheng to purchase goods, Huang Dazhi came to send a message to Gao Mingcheng, saying that Gao Guobing asked him to go there.
So Gao Mingcheng went to Gao Guobing's office. Gao Guobing was very busy recently and looked more capable.
As soon as they met, Gao Guobing said with a smile: "Mingcheng, are you ready with the money? I've got the land for you, you just need to pay and go through the formalities. The land is not far from my house, waiting for you to build it If you have a house, come live here, we will be neighbors!"
Upon hearing this, Gao Mingcheng was also happy. He had just told Gao Guobing last time, but he didn't expect it to be done so quickly.
So he immediately said: "The money is ready, I can go and pay and go through the formalities now."
"Okay, now you take the money and go to the Land Management Bureau to find Director Liu in the office and ask him to take you to go through the relevant procedures. When you go, remember to give a red envelope and get all the certificates you need to apply for." Gao Guobing warned.
"Okay. Uncle, I'll go do something first."
After Gao Mingcheng left, he went back to his home first. His family was doing business and had a lot of cash. He could take the money directly without going to the bank to withdraw money.
He had also made a trip to buy land and build a house before, so this trip was even smoother. Gao Guobing had greeted him in advance, and he was very smooth and experienced when doing things.
Within half an hour, Gao Mingcheng finished everything and walked out with a relaxed look on his face.
Taking the newly obtained certificate, Gao Mingcheng went to see his newly owned land.
Gao Guobing said before that Lili was near his home, but in fact, it was still more than fifty meters away, but this distance was pretty good.
The distance of more than fifty meters is not because there are other houses in the middle, but a naturally formed slope with some trees growing on it. Gao Mingcheng remembers that a path will be built here leading to the People's Park in the future, mainly to facilitate nearby people. Residents enter and exit the People's Park through this path.
Gao Mingcheng examined the terrain and decided that after building the courtyard wall, he would plant some tall trees inside the courtyard wall to block the sight of outsiders.
After returning, Gao Mingcheng handed the certificate to Duo Mei and told Duo Mei the specific situation of the land.
Many beauties looked at the certificates with smiles on their faces. With this certificate, they would be able to build a house smoothly in the future.
"How beautiful, you can think about the layout of the future house in advance. When the planning is almost complete, we will find a construction team to build the house. The construction team that built our house before is pretty good, so keep looking for them." Gao Mingcheng said that the previous person had done the job properly, so he was too lazy to find another person.
When it comes to the construction team, his eldest brother is also very motivated. When he was in the village before, his eldest brother Gao Mingpeng came to him and asked him to borrow a sum of money.
His eldest brother had previously had the idea of setting up a construction team and taking orders to do the work himself, but when he was about to implement it, he found that there was still a little money missing.
Because you set up your own construction team, you have to spend your own money to buy some construction tools, such as iron bucket trucks, scaffolding, concrete mixers, etc.
This was business. Gao Mingcheng naturally agreed to lend money, but asked Gao Mingpeng to write an IOU.
The brothers have settled the accounts clearly. With the IOU, it will be more formal. If anything happens in the future, it will be easy to talk about it.
This time Gao Mingcheng didn't call his eldest brother to do the work when building a new house. This was because his eldest brother's skills were average and he could only take on some small jobs, so Gao Mingcheng didn't dare to let his eldest brother do it.
According to his plan, he will live in this house for a long time in the future, so he has high requirements for the construction quality and layout of the house.
In the evening, Huang Dazhi came over.
Everyone was not surprised to see him coming, because since Luo Li went to work in the clothing store, Huang Dazhi would come to pick Luo Li back after get off work every afternoon.
They have a good relationship as a couple, and Gao Mingcheng likes to hear about it.
But for Gao Shufang, she missed Deng Wanwan a little bit, because Deng Wanwan lived here at that time, so she was in the store from morning to night. Gao Shufang could clean with her and spend time together. Have a chat or something.
Seeing Huang Dazhi and Luo Li talking together, Gao Shufang sighed quietly, and decided to write a letter to Deng Wanwan, telling her apologies and missing her.
She and Deng Wanwan are similar in age, but they actually have a good relationship.
Hey, that’s fine, I’ve never written a letter to anyone before!
Thinking of this, Gao Shufang became inexplicably excited.
She immediately found her second brother because she knew that he had bought paper specifically for writing letters.
After asking her second brother for two pages, Gao Shufang sat at the table and started writing the letter seriously.
Gao Mingcheng knew that she wanted to write a letter to Deng Wanwan, and he supported it. As for the address where Deng Wanwan currently lives, he also asked clearly when he called her last time.
The capital is a place full of gold. People with vision and talent will take off here.
When Gao Shufang was writing a letter, she suddenly found that she had a problem.
Originally, she thought that she was learning every day and making progress every day. She could even talk to customers about the latest current news and build relationships with them.
But when she was writing letters, she found that she often failed to express her meaning and made typos from time to time.
After writing a typo, she subconsciously blacked it out and then re-wrote it.
But when she did this, she discovered that many places on the page were blacked out and the writing was slightly scrawled.
"Hey, how could this happen?" Gao Shufang looked at the letter she had worked so hard to write and was dumbfounded.
She was really too embarrassed to send such a letter, so she had to ask her second brother for some letter paper.
She began to write again. This time, her handwriting was neater and there were no obvious typos.
After reading it three times in a row, she was quite satisfied and felt that there was no problem this time.
But when she was about to fold the letter, she thought about it and decided to show the letter to her second brother.
Gao Mingcheng did not pick up the letter immediately, but said, "What did you show me in the letter you wrote to Deng Wanwan?"
"I...I want you to show me if there is anything wrong in the writing?" Gao Shufang said nervously.
This is the first letter she has written in her life, and this letter is sent to the capital!
This made her feel pressure to do her best.
Gao Mingcheng glanced at her, then took the letter and opened it, but before he read a few lines, he discovered the wrong sentence.
However, he did not say anything, but continued to read. When he had finished reading, he picked up a pen and began to correct the wrong sentences for Gao Shufang in the letter. While revising, he explained why it was wrong to write like this, and circled There were a few typos that Gao Shufang didn't notice.
After all, Gao Mingcheng is not a professional teacher, and his own knowledge is limited. When he taught Duo Mei and Gao Shufang before, he always asked them to read and write more. He wanted to use this method to slowly accumulate knowledge and improve their cultural level. .
But he never asked them to write an article. Now writing a letter is like writing an article, and many shortcomings are exposed in an instant.
So Gao Mingcheng turned around to look at the many beauties and said, "How about you also write a letter to Deng Wanwan?"
He wanted to use this to test the level of many beautiful articles.
Duo Mei saw his intention and was a little tempted, so he nodded in agreement.
That night, Duomei also wrote a letter to Deng Wanwan. After writing it, he gave it to Gao Mingcheng to revise, and then wrote it again. In this way, the level of this letter, not to mention how high it was, was at least not high. Obvious shortcomings.
The next day, Gao Shufang took the two letters to the post office and bought envelopes and stamps. Because the letter paper was light and the recipient was Deng Wanwan, Gao Shufang put both letters into the same envelope. Haha , so you can save money!
When Gao Shufang went out to send a letter, Gao Mingcheng was already sitting in a large truck heading towards the distant Yangcheng.
This time, instead of transporting goods to Fan Chengyao, he transported a cart full of medicinal materials, mostly medicinal materials that could be used to make soup.
At the same time, the cargo owner also wanted to go with the car. At this time, he was sitting in the passenger seat and talking loudly to Gao Mingcheng.
Gao Mingcheng has two lifetimes of experience. No matter what the other party says, he can always strike up a few words without appearing cold.
Someone talked to me along the way, but he didn't seem sad at all. When driving long distances, apart from the dangers you may encounter on the road, the biggest problems are visual fatigue and loneliness.
After arriving in Yangcheng, Gao Mingcheng drove the car to a warehouse according to the owner's instructions and waited for workers to unload the goods.
The owner of the cargo got along quite happily with Gao Mingcheng all the way. At this time, he said: "Brother Mingcheng, you must eat the bag of yam I gave you to nourish your kidneys!"
The owner of the cargo blinked at Gao Mingcheng and gave him a knowing look.
Gao Mingcheng couldn't laugh or cry, but he still had to say: "In addition to nourishing the kidneys, yam has many uses!"
So, don’t just focus on replenishing the kidneys, okay?
Besides, he is so strong, does he look like someone who needs kidney replenishment?
By the way, many beautiful women have not had to work hard on their kidneys for a long time after they became pregnant. So, do they need to take supplements for their kidneys?
As for that pack of dried yam, of course it is used to stew meat and replenish qi and blood!
After unloading the goods, Gao Mingcheng went to the clothing factory to get the goods.
When he received the goods this time, people in the factory told him that the purchase price would be slightly higher. Not only clothing, but also all walks of life had begun to increase prices.
There are naturally reasons behind this price increase, and it will inevitably trigger a series of social unrest, but this is a necessary pain and a small obstacle on the road to development.
Gao Mingcheng is just an ordinary citizen, and has no intention of going into details. He can only advance and retreat with the current situation like a tide.
This time when he went to Yangcheng, Gao Mingcheng found that there were more foreigners wandering on the streets. At the beginning of the year, millions of migrant workers flocked to Yangcheng from all over the country. They were eager to find jobs and take root in life here, but Yangcheng simply could not With so many people admitted, most people can only wander on the streets, or get lucky enough to get one or two temporary jobs to earn a little money.
Seeing these people, Gao Mingcheng felt very emotional.
After a night's rest, he went to a designated address, loaded a truck with goods, and headed back.
While Gao Mingcheng was running on the road, Huang Dazhi had just gotten off the crowded train carriage and followed the flow of people towards the exit of the station.
But when he arrived at the exit, he found that there was a sea of people outside. When he walked on the road, there were countless pairs of dirty black hands grabbing at him.
Once these dirty hands grab him, if he doesn't give generously, he won't be able to leave.
Huang Dazhi looked around and found that the other passengers who had just gotten off the bus were also like this. Some timid women screamed in fright, and some who were afraid could only take out their money in a hurry, but there were also grumpy ones who not only refused to pay, but He also kicked with his feet and cursed.
For such people, those lying on the ground begging did not dare to go too far and moved out of the way.
"Okay, okay, I haven't eaten in a few days, and the child is also very hungry."
"Give me some money!"
"Help us!"
The words of prayer kept coming into his ears, and Huang Dazhi's legs were pulled by those hands, making it impossible for him to continue walking.
Huang Dazhi looked down at them. The appearance of these people was indeed pitiful, but their eyes revealed greed and cunning.
After Huang Dazhi worked in the police station, he had dealt with people from all walks of life. In addition, he was good at observation and could see through the true colors of these people at a glance.
They are indeed pitiful, but even more hateful.
Gathering at the exit of the station like this, reaching out to grab other people's pants and preventing them from leaving, is it any different from robbery?
Huang Dazhi sympathized with many people who were ill-fated, but he did not sympathize with them. He knelt down and stared at the man who was pulling down his pants.
"What's your name? Where are you from? Why did you end up here? I'm a police officer. You follow me back to the police station. After I investigate clearly, I will arrange for you to return home." Huang Dazhi said in a business-like manner. He spoke with a businesslike attitude and a very sincere tone. He looked at the people around him and said, "You all follow me back to the police station."
He had been working in the police station for more than a year, and he had the unique temperament of a case handler. When he opened his mouth, he immediately frightened those people.
Some people have loosened their grip on his pants, but others are not giving up.
One of the women with disheveled hair cried: "Please give me some money, my child is going to starve to death."
Next to her lay a five or six-year-old child, dressed in rags and with a dirty face. He was lying on the ground as if he had fainted from hunger.
Huang Dazhi glanced at the child, then bent down and picked him up.
His action startled the woman, who screamed: "What are you doing?"
Huang Dazhi held the child in his arms and said pitifully: "The child is fainting from hunger. I will take him to the police station cafeteria to eat. You can come too. After the meal is over, I will make a record and then send you back to your hometown."
"You... just give us some money to buy food for us." The woman said weakly.
But Huang Dazhi said nothing and just stared at her.
Finally, the woman couldn't bear the stares and said loudly: "Who wants to follow you to the police station? Put the child down for me. Erhu, run!"
After saying that, the woman turned around and ran away.
The people around her also ran away.
Even the child in Huang Dazhi's arms suddenly opened his eyes, jumped down smartly, and then ran away quickly.
At this speed, who would believe that they haven’t eaten for several days?
In the blink of an eye, the people surrounding Huang Dazhi disappeared one after another.
The others didn't know the whole story and looked over in shock.
Huang Dazhi clapped his hands and walked away expressionlessly.
This was his second trip back to the provincial capital. The first time he came, he came by Gao Mingcheng's truck. It was a smooth journey all the way to the hospital and he didn't have much contact with outsiders.
But this time, he came by train himself.
But fortunately, before setting off, a colleague from the bureau told him that there were a large number of beggars at the railway station in the provincial capital.
And ask him not to give money. Once you give money, others will come around to ask you to give money. If you are robbed, no matter how much money you have, you will lose it.
The provincial capital railway station in 1988 was such a mess.
