The night was dark, and it was still quite some time before dawn. I was walking on the winding mountain road with a stick, and I looked back from time to time.
"Damn it, what kind of place is this! Why are there so few cars passing by!"
I calculated that on average, one car would arrive an hour, but no one was willing to take me. But I can’t blame them. Who dares to park on this winding road in the wild mountains?
Otherwise, the guy who drives a taxi is inexperienced. Under normal circumstances, normal people would not park for strangers in a place like this! She won't stop! Xiaobai can't find me!
But that guy was miserable too. He went on a long trip and didn’t earn enough to eat. So I gave him more than 10,000 yuan for selling cigarettes. I still had a few thousand yuan left, so everyone paid for it! We will never see each other again.
Suddenly, two car headlights came from behind me, and I hurriedly ran to the middle of the road and opened my hands.
There was a sound of brakes.
"You are looking for death! Don't you want to live anymore?"
A shirtless man with glasses and black tattoos all over his chest opened the door and got out of the car. He pointed at me and yelled curses.
I hurriedly said: "Brother! Please give me a lift! I've been walking for more than three hours! I'm going to the city!"
The other party did not speak, but suddenly pointed at me and said loudly: "Oh! We have met before! What did you call that...what the hell!"
As I got closer, I could see his face clearly through the light.
What a coincidence! Not only have I met him, I also know him.
It’s Li Fei from Yinchuan Normandy three years ago!
I was overjoyed: "Brother Fei! It's me! Xiang Yunfeng! You must still remember Yu Wenbin!"
He clapped his hands and laughed: "I remember! You are the boy who followed Yu Wenbin back then!"
After chatting for a few minutes, I got into his pickup truck.
Not seeing each other for a few years, Li Fei has changed a lot now.
"Brother Fei, why did you drive a truck? Where is your Normandy KTV?"
"Hey, don't mention it, it's too long to say!" He slowed down the car and sighed: "Two years ago, after the fall of the Jin brothers, there was a wave of severe crackdowns in Yinchuan. I didn't survive and was arrested. Later, I dispersed my family wealth and was finally sentenced. I just came out a year and a half, a few months ago.”
"Severe punishment? Then why is Aza okay?"
"Who did you hear that he was fine?"
"Aza said it himself! He said that the whole of Yinchuan is under his control! He is the King of Yinchuan!"
"It's just a bunch of bragging. If you listen to his nonsense, I will be killed. What can he do to a little brat who betrays his brothers and licks the powerful? To be honest, from the first day he took office, . I, Li Fei, have never been convinced by him! I can only be convinced by people like Liu Zhiyuan!"
Li Fei turned around and said: "The bosses have been very aggressive in the past few years. Unless Zhang Xiao It’s impossible to raise fish as big as the Jin brothers before.”
I frowned when I heard this, thinking that Yinchuan has changed so much. No matter how stupid people are in society, the higher-ups are determined to get rid of you, and it will only take a matter of minutes.
"Brother Fei, what are you doing now?"
Li Fei took a puff of cigarette and drove the car and said: "My family property worth millions was defined as illegal income for me, and it was all confiscated by me. If the three fat guys hadn't taken the blame for me at that time, I wouldn't be worth ten." It won’t come out in twenty years.”
He added: "Brother, this means that surviving a catastrophe will lead to future blessings. I am very satisfied. Now I rent a stall in the market to sell seafood and fish products. I didn't just come back from carrying frozen goods from other places and ran into you. That’s it.”
Li Fei is young and handsome. Although he now wears glasses and is more bookish, his manner, temperament, and the dragon tattoo on his chest clearly show that he is not an ordinary citizen.
I looked at him and said, "Brother Fei, to be honest, I seem to see the shadow of Brother Zhiyuan in you."
"Brother, please pull him down! I won't follow Liu Zhiyuan's footsteps. His wife was so pregnant back then, and he still went to find people with a machete. He knew that there was a near chance of death in the road ahead, but he still kept moving forward. I, Li Fei, admire him! But I I won’t be like him! He’s so stubborn!”
"Why...."
Li Fei sighed.
There was silence in the car. Maybe both of us were reminiscing about the past. How was Sister-in-law Xiaoxia's life in Shandong? The money I left her should be enough.
After learning that I had no place to live in Yinchuan, Li Fei warmly invited me to stay at his house for two days. Naturally, I couldn't ask for it. After all, there were still more than ten days left before the agreed September 1st. Living in his house was better than living in that desert mine. Ten days is a good idea.
We are not friends, but we are friends.
When a friend is in dire straits, the other party will not hesitate to provide a helping hand. This was the style of the Yinchuan society back then.
I don’t ask you to repay me now, I just hope that one day in the future I will be in trouble, brother, you can come out and help me.
I was only 18 years old in Yinchuan at that time, so my behavior was influenced by people like Brother Zhiyuan.
I also like to help friends, and I helped diodes before. In other words, I don’t ask for immediate reward, we are betting on the future.
But there is a prerequisite, you have to let me see the value! If you are a bunch of idiots, let alone help me, I won't take any notice of you.
It was much faster to get on the bus, and we arrived in Yinchuan soon.
When I revisited my old place a few years later, I felt an indescribable feeling in my heart. Many familiar faces flashed through my mind, including the enthusiastic Boss Bai, the quirky chick-footed lady, and the hotel owner’s daughter Xiaomiao. ..
It’s been close to four years, right? How are they doing?
To be honest, I don't know because the two parties have long since lost contact. Maybe they have already gotten married and had children.
Li Fei lives in an old community behind the power supply station. Before dawn, I saw a slender young girl with slender legs standing at the door waiting in the distance.
I also have an impression of this girl, sister Li Fei. I met her once before. I forgot her name. I only remember that she drove a red Elysee and wore a black leather hat.
Seeing me getting out of the car, the girl was stunned for a moment.
"Brother! This is..."
I stretched out my hand and said with a smile, "Hello, little sister, we have met before, and you gave me a ride before. Did you forget? I said I would give you a thousand yuan for the fare, but you didn't ask for it."
She frowned and thought hard, and suddenly said loudly: "It's you! I remembered it! You are the skinny boy! You have changed so much!"
I smiled and said, "Sister, you have changed a lot and are becoming more and more beautiful."
Li Fei coughed, opened the carriage door, and whispered to me: "Be honest, if you dare to flirt with my sister, I will kill you."
I laughed and said I didn’t dare.
Li Fei's sister is called Li Ping. She has beautiful features and a delicate appearance. It is her long legs that impressed me deeply. A girl's legs don't just have to be long, they have to be overall shape to look good.
She casually stopped there. She had long legs, a thin waist, and plump hips. The waist-to-hip ratio was pleasing to the eye. As a normal man, I couldn't help but take a second look.
I helped unload the foam boxes. Li Ping took an electronic scale and weighed the boxes one by one. Li Fei said: "It's almost the same, sister. It's almost the same. The frozen goods will definitely lose the scale if they melt. We don't need to be so serious."
Li Ping pinched Xiaoman's waist with both hands, raised her eyebrows and retorted: "How can that be okay! Brother! You are so easy to talk to! The ten boxes of pangasius you brought back last time were seven kilograms less than ours! If it weren't for me, Found it! Can the wholesaler refund you the money you paid for the seven pounds of fish!"
Li Fei's eyes darkened and he said, "Sister, it's my fault that I haven't allowed you to live a good life in the past two years."
"Brother, please don't say that! Although we have nothing now! But at least we feel at ease in our hearts! I believe that as long as we are willing to endure hardship, we will be able to live a good life in a few years!"
Li Fei'en said something, turned his head and wiped his eyes.
Their family has three large freezers. Li Fei said that when he has more money in the second half of the year, he will rent a house near the market and build a cold storage so that he does not have to travel back and forth. After we finished working together, I temporarily stayed at his house.
The locals know that Li Fei's former Normandy was very good in Yinchuan, and his sister used to live a life like a young lady. Now Li Ping can accept her current situation with ease, without any airs or temper of a young lady. This is true. Very valuable.
I have been to so many places, and if I have to say which city has the best impression of girls, it has to be Yinchuan!
Let me put it this way, girls from Yinchuan are suitable to be brought home as wives, and they can endure hardships better than girls from Sichuan. I remember that Tingting seems to be from the area around Yinchuan.
.....
On the third day after arriving in Yinchuan, Li Fei went to the fish market early in the morning. He asked me to take Li Ping to the new department store at that time. Li Ping did not work there, but rented a counter on the third floor to sell some natural crystals. Trinket, we kept talking on the way.
"Hey, my brother said your name is Xiang Yunfeng, right? I seem to be the same age as you."
"Same age? I'm a month older than you, so you still have to call me Brother Sheng."
"Tch, if you give me 10,000 yuan, I will call you brother."
"Pull it down, I have nothing, you can scream if you like."
Her small counter on the third floor of the new department store is in the southeast corner. It is not in a good location and is in a dead end. The rent is relatively cheap, and she sells a lot of things.
I glanced at it and saw that they were all kinds of small crystals, including green ghost, hairy quartz, red rose quartz, citrine, citrine, smoky quartz, etc. There was no carving, they were all simply polished. The key is that there was no one at all. It's a plastic fake, all natural. Judging from the glossiness, I guess it's from the East China Sea.
"Okay, all these little rubbish you sell are real."
She immediately became unhappy and said: "Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand! My goods are not rubbish! I don't lie to people like those counters on the first floor! What I sell are genuine natural East China Sea crystals!"
"Okay! Your goods are good, so how is the business at your counter?"
She bit her lower lip and stopped talking.
"How much do you sell these small pieces for?" I asked.
"Twenty to more than a hundred."
I nodded and asked again: "Although it's a little rubbish, your supply channels are okay."
"Of course," she said with a smile, "I didn't spend any money to bring these crystals! My brother used to take care of that boss in Jiangsu, and the boss would send me several big bags of scraps every once in a while! The other party asked me to sell them out in Let’s settle the payment with him! Now there are so many in my warehouse that I can’t keep them anymore!”
I asked her to take me to see the small warehouse.
I don’t know if I don’t see it, but it scares me when I see it! There are so many colorful natural crystal scraps! There are dozens of sacks filled with them! At least a thousand pounds!
"There are so many! They can't be piled up anymore! Sell them quickly!" I said.
She blushed and said anxiously: "I want to deal with it too! But the problem is that not many people want it!"
I thought for a while and said, "You don't know how to do business at all. You call me Brother Sheng, and I will tell you how to do this kind of business."
"Brother! Brother! Brother!"
"Brother Xiang! Brother Feng! Good brother"
She shook my arm and said, "I'm almost bored to death! Please give me some advice, dear brother!"
Let me ask, which man can bear this?
When my heart was full, I was ready to give everything I had to save her from fire and water.
