In just a few days, Li Zheng's appearance had changed a lot.
He had a fresh hairstyle with a short cut, his whole face was tanned, and he had a healthy wheat color. He put on a well-fitting black outfit, and he looked a lot calmer.
After experiencing this lesson, he may have really changed his ways, at least on the surface, he has changed.
Cao Meng sent another document not long after, and Yang Xiao opened it and took a look, finally understanding what was going on.
It turns out that Li Zheng has not been bad to the core since he was a child. It should be said that he still retains a trace of conscience in his heart.
Although this boy is naughty, he is also a seed of infatuation. It is because the girl he likes chose someone else and he has never recovered since then.
It can be regarded as a model of being hurt by love.
At that time, he was an upright youth and rebellious, and his character became a bit stubborn due to Li Xiaoqiang's long-term stick education. Li Xiaoqiang did not know how to establish a correct outlook on love and life for children. After dropping out of school early, Li Zheng refused to accept his fate and only wanted to make money. He longed to become rich as soon as possible. Making the woman who disliked poverty and loved wealth regret regret was his only goal for a long time.
As a result, things didn't go as planned. Because of his careless friendship, the stupid boy got into the bad habit of gambling.
Once a person has tried to become rich overnight, and then asks him to go to work to earn money and accumulate wealth bit by bit, it is basically impossible.
Why do so many people become addicted to gambling? Because being addicted to the pleasure of gambling can really make people forget the disappointing reality.
How do you say that? Yes, although escaping is shameful, it is really useful.
Has Li Zheng really changed his ways? maybe.
In fact, Yang Xiao didn't care much.
After all, people have to walk their own path. Some people must go to a dead end and seek death. They are not gods and cannot save everyone.
The reason why he was given a chance was just for Li Xiaoqiang's sake. He owes Li Xiaoqiang a favor, and now that he has met him, he will repay the favor. It is such a simple logical relationship.
"Hi boss."
Li Zheng was very respectful. He knew that the young man in front of him gave him a new life and saved his family.
Although he didn't know why he helped his father and gave him a hand, Li Zheng was grateful to him from the bottom of his heart. Now that he could serve his benefactor and do something in return, he had secretly made up his mind to perform well.
For no other reason than to fight for his father and let his benefactor see his changes.
Yang Xiao didn't know that Cao Meng must have misunderstood their relationship. The boy was probably still muttering to himself that if he could make his boss spend the whole night, he would make a trip in person. Not to mention too much talking, the relationship between the two parties must not be simple.
Being smart and knowing how to observe what is happening is an advantage of a smart person, but sometimes it can also become a weakness of this type of person. They think randomly all day long and fail to use their thoughts in a reasonable place, which will also make him, the boss, very troubled.
After all, he has lived to be almost fifty years old, has been in society for so many years, and has come into contact with countless people from all walks of life. Li Zheng's social experience is much stronger than that of ordinary people.
He knows very well what is the most difficult thing in the world these days, and of course it is getting money from the boss's wallet. The young man in front of him could help him bear a debt of 100,000 yuan without blinking an eye. Such generosity was definitely not a stupid person with too much money.
If he cannot prove his worth, then whatever relationship Yang Xiao has with his father Li Xiaoqiang will gradually grow cold.
Between adults, more often than not, what matters is the exchange of value and the sharing of interests.
Sure enough, with my little brother busy with me, I felt a lot more relaxed.
Booking the fastest flight tickets, arranging the best hotels, and contacting vehicles that fit his status, Yang Xiao didn't worry at all, and Li Zheng handled everything very appropriately.
He knew that this opportunity to prove himself might be the only one in his life, so he was very interested in it.
I checked various travel guides online and did my homework.
Northern Xinjiang, the largest province of Country Z, is located in the northwest border with a border of more than 5,600 kilometers. It borders eight countries including Country E. Its capital city, W City, is one of the five ethnic minority autonomous regions of Country Z and is also the land of Country Z. The largest provincial-level administrative region, covering an area of more than 1.6 million square kilometers, accounting for one-sixth of the country's total land area.
Yang Xiao's destination was not the capital of Northern Xinjiang, but a special city further north, KL City.
As a prefecture-level city under the jurisdiction of Northern Xinjiang Province, KL City is not only an important national petroleum and petrochemical base, but also a new industrialized city focused on construction in Northern Xinjiang Province.
It is located on the northwest edge of the Junggar Basin, the central area of the Eurasian continent - the central area of the Pan-Central Asia. It is the gathering area of the world's petroleum and petrochemical industry, with extremely rich oil and gas reserves.
Luo Yinghua's comrades-in-arms, Song Tiange and Zhao Qingfan, responded to the country's call to build the Northwest. After retiring from the army, they came here to work hard together. Over time, they simply stopped leaving and settled their families here.
The two teamed up and opened a travel agency. Song Tiange usually worked part-time as a tour guide and driver, while Zhao Qingfan was busy doing business and looking for customers.
Over the years, although I have not become rich or wealthy, my life has been pretty good.
But unexpectedly, a week ago, Song Tiange not only died in an unknown way because of a treasure he obtained by accident, but Zhao Qingfan was also forced to get involved in a dispute, and he is still in trouble.
With no other choice, he called his old comrade Luo Yinghua for help.
Yang Xiao was also speechless. His uncle did not dare to show up in the city at all. He could only hide in the famous tourist attraction Devil's City, a hundred kilometers away from KL City.
After the plane landed, there was no delay, and the two quickly found the tour guide.
I have never been to Northern Xinjiang, and I can never understand what a truly vast world is.
Looking around, this high-grade highway seems to have no end, stretching to the horizon.
Three black off-road vehicles were driving along the road.
On both sides of the road, shrubs are planted to protect the roadbed. Although these grasses do not grow high, they have developed root systems and can firmly hold the wind and sand in place.
On the left is the boundless desert, and on the right is the desolate next door.
It is said that the Northern Territory is vast, and Li Zheng now fully understands it.
After driving for more than half an hour, there was not a single car in the opposite lane. Except for him and Yang Xiao, only two tour guides followed, as if they had entered a no-man's land.
He didn't like the desert or the Gobi Desert. This kind of endless desolation was not suitable for human survival, and it made him feel a faint fear.
Once the car is damaged in a place like this, it will be impossible to cry.
You know, even though it looks like there is only dry yellow here, there is no water, no plants, no animals, no aliens, and there is even a lack of anything other than a little gravel. But at night, deadly wolves may tear it all apart and devour it.
Thanks to ecological protection, the wild animals on the Gobi Desert are much richer than ordinary people imagine.
It was precisely because of various reasons that Li Zheng hired two tour guides to follow them in separate cars.
People who have never seen the surrounding natural landscape will be very surprised when they see it for the first time.
However, as time passed, I gradually lost interest. After all, it is the height of summer in the northern hemisphere, and the temperature outside the car window can reach 42 degrees under the scorching sun. Such high temperatures are enough to make most people feel uncomfortable.
Along the way, apart from the natural scenery, Yang Xiao noticed with interest the various scrapped vehicles that appeared on both sides of the road from time to time. Obviously, it is very easy to get tired when driving on such a highway, so a lot of car accidents occur.
Judging from the miserable conditions of these scrapped vehicles, it is obvious that most of the drivers have accompanied them to the northwest.
The two male tour guides are both from ethnic minorities and are not very old. The older one is named Aili, who is only thirty years old this year, and the other named Yimu is only in his early twenties.
Compared with Ai Li, who doesn't talk much, Yi Mu is much more talkative. During the entire driving process, he was basically the only one explaining various natural scenery, history and culture to Yang Xiao, two mainland tourists.
Obviously, Yimu has a very proud love for his hometown.
The explanations are also full of enthusiasm.
Of course, the young tour guide has not forgotten his side job, which is proper promotion.
One is dried fruits and raisins that you can take home for your relatives and friends to try, and the other is the world-famous Hetian jade.
Li Zheng had to admit that even though these two were from ethnic minorities, they could speak Mandarin better than him. He only listened to the voices but did not look at the people. He had no idea that they were brothers from other ethnic groups.
For this trip, Liu Sanjiang advanced Li Zheng a very sufficient amount of work funds. Before leaving, the head of Feihong Company's logistics support team only gave Li Zheng one work instruction, that is, don't save money. Outside of going out, money matters. You can suffer losses, but people must not suffer losses.
This is the boss's first time going out, so he must provide the best protection. If Feihong hadn't just finished his meal and had a lot of things to do, he would have wanted to accompany Yang Xiao in person on this trip to Northern Xinjiang.
This is an excellent opportunity to get closer to your boss.
Of course, Li Zheng also knew that Yang Xiao was not short of money, so he spent a lot of money. Before coming, I didn’t even blink an eye, and even tipped a thousand dollars.
Otherwise, Yimu would not be as passionate as now, as if he had been beaten to death.
"Yimu, don't just talk, drink some water. Don't just brag. We'll arrange a good meal for us at noon later. Just serve the big plate of chicken that you blew up to the sky just now. I tell you, it's not delicious. You pay for it." money."
"No problem, the chicken has been ordered a long time ago. The drive is still an hour away. When we arrive, it will be time for dinner." Yimu smiled happily. You know, the hotels and restaurants at the entrance of the scenic spot are quite fierce due to homogeneous competition. .
As tour guides, they can't live off just a small amount of tour guide fees. Every business they introduce to hotels will receive a commission.
The two gentlemen in front of me looked like they were not short of money. He had received this kind of guests before, and it was easier to deal with than many ordinary tourists who were traveling on a budget and were afraid of being ripped off.
