Chapter 106

Just like he suddenly disappeared from the daily chemical factory a few years ago, Qi Nuliang suddenly reappeared in the daily chemical factory.

Still the same as before, he ate breakfast at Liang Mazi's shop in the morning, went shopping in the vegetable market in the afternoon, and took Jiang Yu home in the evening.The days continued like this, as if he had never been anywhere and had always lived in this area.

"Ah Liang, long time no see, where have you been these days?"

In Liang Mazi's breakfast shop, the aunt who lived next door came to buy fried dough sticks. When she met him, she couldn't help asking.

"Yeah, I haven't been back for several years, where did I get rich all these years." Another person joked.

Qi Nuliang couldn't answer any of these questions, so he took the unfinished fried dough sticks and came out of Liang Mazi's shop.

Back then, he was not only jailed, but also fined 10,000+, and all the money in his card was fined.There was also the car that Cao Hongjin gave away. I don’t know where it came from. After the arrest of those people, it was also confiscated as stolen goods.

After being released from the prison, except for the meager income from the labor reform and the travel expenses when he was released from prison, Qi Nuliang returned to the old days of poverty and nothingness.Fortunately, there is still the money he entrusted to the manager of Footwashing City, and Jiang Yu's future college expenses are still covered.

According to Jiang Yu, after he was arrested, he went to ask for it twice.Manager Wang gave them all, but not much, less than 5000 yuan in total.

The manager said that the money was left by his brother for him to go to college in the future.Before Jiang Yu was admitted to university, he couldn't give so much money to a high school student.In case he is ignorant and squanders everything, how can he explain to Qi Nuliang, only let him go and get it when he is short of money.

Jiang Yu felt that what the manager said was right, and the subsidy given by the school was sufficient for daily expenses, so he didn't take any more money.He thought that Qi Nuliang would come out before his college entrance examination anyway, and it would be more appropriate for him to get the money he entrusted by himself then.

After coming out of the restaurant, Qi Nuliang walked to Bamei Rong's small supermarket again.He has met in the past few days since he came back, but he hasn't made a special trip to say hello.

Rong Bamei greeted him first when she saw him: "I just arrived at a few Huangshan Mountains today, what do you want now?"

Qi Nuliang waved his hand: "I'm going to Hongcheng to do some errands later, so I can get it when I come back."

"It will be sold out when you come back. If you want it, I'll keep it for you first." Bamei Rong pulled the new Huangshan from the shelf behind her and put it under the cash register, complaining, "The tobacco company really wants to buy it." Annoying, I won’t match you if you sell well, but you will match some that can’t be sold.”

Qi Nuliang took money out of his pocket and handed it to Bamei Rong: "Then I'll give you the money first."

Rong Bamei found money for him: "The purchase price is enough."

"Wherever this works, you can take as much as you want. You still have rent, water and electricity here. How can you open a shop without making money?"

Bamei Rong was not too polite, she put all the money on the counter into the cash register, took out a cigarette case and smoked one for Qi Nuliang, and lit a lighter for him.

"It's hard to come out, but don't go in again. What are you going to do next?"

Qi Nuliang took a deep breath of the cigarette, and then let it out slowly: "What else can I plan? Let's see where Xiaoyu goes after he finishes his college entrance examination."

"You are really going with him. He is studying, what are you doing with him?"

"I'm also looking for a job. He has to spend money to study."

"He is already an adult, he should have figured out a way to make money by himself. When we were seventeen or eighteen years old, who didn't support themselves."

Qi Nuliang lit the cigarette ash and said with a smile: "You can't say that, the times are different. Besides, you can study with peace of mind while you are still in school. If you are still in school, you are still a child, not an adult."

Bamei Rong rolled her eyes greatly: "You really think of yourself as his father, and plan to raise him for the rest of your life?"

Qi Nuliang just smiled: "I'll talk to you when I come back, I'll go to the city first." Qi Nuliang put out the cigarette butt, clapped his hands, and left.

In just two years, the scene in Hongcheng has changed drastically.New buildings have been built one after another in the outskirts of the city, and they are almost built on the side of the daily chemical factory.In the past few days since I came back, I have heard the residents of the daily chemical factory talking about demolition, or which building is well-repaired and sold at a high price, and it is the king of the new building.

Square Road is no longer the center of Hongcheng, and now the busiest place is in Xincheng.The once dark red street, after a period of anti-pornography and anti-illegal activities, "hair salon" has disappeared and turned into an ordinary small shop.The once most prosperous and high-end Longgong Foot Washing City on the side of the square road has been replaced by a new, more upscale indoor hot spring, and the traces of the past have disappeared.

Manager Wang hadn't been working here for a long time. After making inquiries, Qi Nuliang found him in an intermediary company that bought a house.

The man was wearing a white shirt with a yellowed collar, smoking and bragging with a few other young people outside the store.

Qi Nuliang walked behind him, the young man on the opposite side saw him first, stood up, and smiled obsequiously: "Brother, inspectors? We have internal prices for several new properties nearby..."

Manager Wang turned to look at him, very surprised: "Brother Qi, are you out?"

Qi Nuliang nodded to him and greeted him: "Manager Wang has changed his career to sell houses?"

"Manager Wang, call me Xiao Wang." Wang Peng stood up, "Come on, Brother Qi, let's go over there and talk."

The two turned to a deserted alley, and Wang Peng gave him a cigarette: "When did you come out?"

Qi Nuliang tilted his head to light a cigarette with his fire, took a deep breath: "Just a few days."

"So soon?" said the words, but felt it was inappropriate, Wang Peng changed his words, "I have no other intentions, I have inquired before, but I did not find out how long you have been sentenced."

"I'm fine, just over two years."

"It's good to come out anyway."

"Why did you do this?" Qi Nuliang stared at the decent badge on his chest, on which was written "Sales Manager Wang Peng", "Why did Footwash City close down?"

"Why else? Director He was arrested, and a new official took office. He inspected and demanded rectification every three days, and no one gave money for rectification, so he just went bankrupt." Wang Peng pressed the cigarette butt against the wall, "now There’s nothing else to do, let’s make a living.” Speaking of this, Wang Peng casually asked, “Brother Qi, are you planning to buy a house? Remember to ask me if you want to buy, and I’ll give you an internal discount.”

Qi Nuliang smiled awkwardly: "Where can I get the money to buy a house?" Speaking of this, he mentioned the purpose of coming to Wang Peng, "Well, the money I asked you for before I left, I heard from my child , he only took more than 5000, and the rest..."

Wang Peng slapped his head: "Yes, yes, I only gave him more than 5000. I thought that if I gave too much at one time, the child would spend it indiscriminately. After all, you said that it was for him to go to college. He didn't come looking for it later. I took it, and I saved it all."

Qi Nuliang rubbed his hands: "He will take the college entrance examination next month, and the money will be available soon..."

Wang Peng gave another cigarette to Qi Nuliang: "Seventh brother, listen to me, it's like this. Your money is not big or small. I thought that the interest rate of the bank's current deposit was too little, so I deposited it for a fixed period of time. It’s quite high. I also counted the time for the college entrance examination, and the deposit was in June, and it didn’t expire until next month.”

Qi Nuliang frowned: "You mean the money can't be withdrawn now?"

"How can this be? I will withdraw it for you whenever you want, but the interest will be gone before the time. It has been saved for two years, and it is several thousand."

Wang Peng looked at Qi Nuliang, waiting for him to make up his mind.

Qi Nuliang pondered for a while, and guessed that the other party wanted the interest.For the sake of Wang Peng helping to keep the money, it is not a big deal to give him some interest.

"Are you sure it's due next month?"

"Yes, next month."

"Then withdraw it when it's due. Anyway, the money will be spent in September. At that time, just give me the principal, and the interest will be yours."

"How can this be? Why should I take advantage of you?" Wang Peng said cheerfully, "Brother Qi, you finally came out and you haven't notified everyone yet, right? I'll call my brothers over and find a restaurant to open a table tonight, and I'll pick you up." a wind."

Qi Nuliang waved his hands, lowered his eyelids, and his expression sank: "No need, I'm not your Brother Qi now, you can just call me Lao Qi from now on."

"Brother Qi, you're offended by saying that. Everyone remembers your generosity back then. I was thinking about coming to see you before, and after Hua Tsai inquired for a while, I realized that it's okay not to see anyone." Wang Peng sighed, "A lot of people were arrested during that time, and all my relationships were broken."

"What is Hua Tsai doing now?"

"His grandfather passed away last year. After that, he went to work in the south with his friends. The last time we chatted, he said that he didn't know when you would come out. I will give you his phone number. Please contact him when you are convenient. He has been thinking about it all the time. your."

"What about the rest?"

"I'm still hanging around in Hongcheng." Speaking of other people, Wang Peng's face darkened, "Xiao Wu and Tao'er went in, one stole, the other robbed and wounded others. Xiao Wu was sentenced to 13 years for more than two years. Year."

Qi Nuliang has mixed feelings in his heart. In just two years, the outside world is also different.

"Speaking of which, if you hadn't been in charge back then, I'm afraid these two would have gone in by now. Sigh..." Wang Peng smoked another cigarette for himself, "Let's not talk about them, brother Qi, look at the incident..."

"There's no need to pick it up. I won't be staying in Hongcheng for long, and I'll be leaving soon. You don't need to tell them about my return."

When he said this, Wang Peng immediately understood what he meant.

Qi Nuliang glanced at the time, now he had to go home and cook, so he could send it to Jiang Yu after school in the afternoon.

I haven't seen him for two years. The child has grown a lot, but he is too thin.This is his final sprint stage, and the nutrition in the school cafeteria is not enough.

In addition, he no longer wants to have any contact with those "friends" who were not doing business in society.When he came out this time, he decided to completely break away from the previous way of life, and he didn't want to go through the torture of prison again.
