A foreign city, dear you

A few days later, Cao Xueqian no longer wanted to do the mobile phone business.

When Cao Xueqian got off the bus after getting off work that day, he received another call from Wang Daqun.

Wang Daqun encouraged him again on the phone, saying that the cycle of copycat mobile phones was short, the funds were withdrawn quickly, and there were people investing, so it was a rare opportunity.

Wang Daqun's sharp tongue was already very eloquent, and he moved Cao Xueqian's heart.

"You have such good technology, you are responsible for the technology, and I will be responsible for the production and sales. If you do well, one mobile phone can earn you a year's salary."

"You have been here in Yancheng for a few years. Don't just earn a dead salary. A man has to do something big."

……

Cao Xueqian was thinking about what Wang Daqun said as he walked.

Wang Daqun's words were both tempting, flattering and provocative, making it increasingly difficult for Cao Xueqian to refuse.

Cao Xueqian had no choice but to talk to Wang Daqun about his difficulties.

One of the difficulties is that he has to go to work and has no time left to do business.

The second difficulty was that he had no funds on hand to invest.

Wang Daqun said that the first difficulty was easy to handle. He, Cao Xueqian, only needed to be responsible for the structural technology, and the rest would be left to Wang Daqun. The second difficulty was the problem of funds. He had to find a way to raise it. Whoever does the business had to raise the funds. Where are the funds? Opportunities don't come often. Wait until you have enough funds before investing. The day lily will be cold.

Wang Daqun had already mentioned this, and Cao Xueqian seemed to have nothing more to say. However, Cao Xueqian had not finally agreed, and only said that he would think about it again.

Cao Xueqian walked, only four to five hundred meters away from Xiya Garden.

A three-wheeled motorcycle passed through the street.

Cao Xueqian looked carefully and saw that it was not Lin Shushen.

But he suddenly remembered the night when Lin Shushen's tricycle collided with the Honda car.

"You don't have a car, right? That's so easy to say?"

The words of the man in the vest of the Honda owner rang in Cao Xueqian's ears again.

At that time, the two people were arguing with each other, and Cao Xueqian choked back the words without politeness.

Thinking about it now, there was strong sarcasm and ridicule in the vest man's words. This sarcasm and ridicule touched Cao Xueqian's self-esteem as a man.

Cao Xueqian thought of Ye Lian again.

Ye Lian is very simple, does not compare or worship money, is content with the status quo, and is easily satisfied.

But Ye Lian unconsciously regarded car owners as a higher class, which made Cao Xueqian feel bad.

……

These memories of Cao Xueqian jointly guided him to an unprecedented idea: I need a car.

"I need a car!"

Once this thought emerged, it became stronger and stronger.

Cao Xueqian felt that every cell in his body became active and excited instantly.

He imagined himself driving his cool car speeding down the road;

He imagined him driving slowly while Ye Lian sat in the passenger seat, smiling and enjoying the scenery outside the window;

He imagined that when he met the Honda man again one day, he would tell the Honda man with his eyes: Hey, man! Who doesn’t have a car these days?

……

Hey, just thinking about it is wonderful.

Cao Xueqian unconsciously turned up the corners of his eyes, raised the corners of his mouth, and his deep eyes were filled with stars.

Just do it with Wang Daqun. Wang Daqun is a very capable person. He speaks so confidently, so there shouldn't be any problems, right?

As for money...

Cao Xueqian calculated in his mind that he had just adjusted his salary not long ago, and now he can get [-] per month. The salary is not low, but I have no cash on hand and I have to find someone to borrow it.

I borrowed it, but I was too embarrassed to ask again.

Alas, I can only be so shameless. At worst, I will make money and treat them to a meal. This is the last time I borrowed money. I will never borrow money again.

Cao Xueqian was planning one by one in his mind, and before he knew it, he was downstairs in Xiya Garden, and would soon be home.

Ye Lian should be waiting for me at home, right?

Will she agree with my decision?

This is probably the most difficult one.

She didn't agree with her dating Wang Daqun in the first place, and now she had to borrow money to do business with Wang Daqun. She must be reluctant.

How do I convince her? Can I convince her?

************************

Three months later.

It was late June along the city.

This weather is relatively friendly to Lin Shushen, who rides a tricycle every day. A little hot, but not too hot.

On this day, Lin Shushen drove all afternoon and felt a little tired, so he decided to call it a day.

He went to the market and bought more than a pound of lean meat, some sausages, a handful of green peppers, and a green vegetable. When buying lean meat, he asked his boss to cut it into slices for him.

Since it is inconvenient to cut vegetables by himself, Lin Shushen always asks the meat seller to cut the meat every time he buys meat. This has become his habit when buying vegetables.

After buying the groceries, Lin Shushen drove a tricycle home.

Yes, go home.

But the direction he drove was not to the original rental house, which had been cancelled.

Ten minutes later, he arrived at his new rental.

The new rental house is a little far away from Xiangyang Town and Xiyayuan, but it can be reached quickly by driving a tricycle.

The rental apartment is also on the first floor. It also has a rolling shutter door and an improper shop floor.

The rolling shutter is closed.

Hey, where have people gone?

Lin Shushen was talking about his daughter Yaya and Yaya's grandmother.

Yes, Lin Shushen has already brought his daughter Yaya, whom he misses day and night, to his side.

He had achieved his little wish.

For this wish, he has been working tirelessly on his tricycle for more than half a year.

He hoped that in the days to come, he could continue to drive his tricycle to support this family and his daughter's sky.

Ye Lu has also come to Xiangyang Town and found a new job in a packaging factory.

Lin Shushen noticed the matter.

Indeed, general labor jobs are relatively easy to find, and you don’t have to bother your brother-in-law.

The house she rents now is not far from where Ye Lu works, so Ye Lu can go home to eat when she is not busy at work.

The family was finally reunited, something Lin Shushen never dared to think about before driving a tricycle.

Lin Shushen parked the tricycle and inspected it again.

Lin Shushen treasures his tricycle.

Without this tricycle, he, Lin Shushen, would not be where he is today.

Therefore, how important his tricycle is to Lin Shushen! Without it, Lin Shushen would be like a farmer without a hoe and a singer without a microphone, unable to move.

Lin Shushen not only cherishes his tricycle, but also cherishes his profession.

Because, through all the difficult and heartbreaking experiences in the past, he clearly knew that in his situation, he could not find any other better way than driving a tricycle.

Every day when he drives out, he greets his customers with a smile. He always puts the safety of his customers first, never cuts off the road or runs a red light, and his charges are fair and reasonable.

After driving a tricycle for so long, he has never had any other safety accidents except for the time when he avoided a motorcycle and a Honda car on Mingtian Road in front of Xiya Garden.

Perhaps because of his steady, reliable and good service, he has gradually accumulated some repeat customers. Some familiar customers have saved his phone number and call him directly in advance when they want to go somewhere.

After checking the tricycle, Lin Shushen picked up the dishes and opened the rolling shutter.

*

As soon as the rolling shutter door opened, there was some light in the originally dark room.

There was a bunk bed placed against the wall in the room, with the lower part for sleeping and some sundries placed on top.

There was a small loft overhead and a small ladder placed against the other wall.

At night, Grandma Yaya took Yaya to sleep in the attic.

Because Lin Shushen drives a tricycle, they can only rent a house on the first floor. After finishing work in the evening, Lin Shushen needed to park the tricycle inside the house to prevent it from being stolen by others.

Lin Shushen took a short rest and wanted to cook for himself. After eating, I can go to work by myself, and also, I don’t know when Yaya and her grandma will come back, and I’m afraid that Ye Lu won’t have anything to eat when she comes back from get off work.

Because it is a shop, there is no dedicated kitchen.

Fortunately, the toilet was relatively long and narrow, so Lin Shushen and the others found a little space near the window to cook.

He picked up the rice cooker liner and wanted to clean it first.

Since he only had one hand, he leaned the liner in the corner and tried to keep the liner from moving.

After washing the inner pot, he put the rice in it, washed it, and cooked it there.

After finishing cooking, Lin Shushen picked up the cabbage again.

One hand was not good at peeling the cabbage leaves, so he took the kitchen knife at home and chopped off the cabbage leaves with one stroke, and the leaves fell apart one by one...

"Dad——" A cute and childish voice.

Lin Shushen raised his head happily.
