Chapter 507: Farewell, Departure
Chapter 507: Chapter 507: Farewell, Departure
Many tired and excited employees, thinking that they could finally rest tomorrow, went to a KTV to celebrate together. Feng Yiping, however, was not in the mood and hurried home, day and night.
He opened the door and parked the car very gently. As a result, as soon as he entered the door, the door to his parents\' room opened, and his mother, still dressed, asked, \'You\'re back. What were the final figures?\'
\'431.7 million,\' Feng Yiping said softly. He knew that his mother was an impatient person who could never change her ways. No matter what time he came home, she would wait up until she fell asleep.
\'Oh, so there were still a lot of people buying today,\' she remembered the data from the previous six days.
\'The last day was better than the middle ones,\'
\'Qiuping, do you have to ask at this time? Let Yiping go to bed first. Can\'t we talk about it tomorrow morning?\' While the mother and son were whispering, Grandpa\'s voice sounded. It turned out that he was also waiting.
Feng Yiping looked up, and sure enough, Huang Jingping was also standing quietly at the top of the stairs. You could see her bare feet in the light peeking through the crack in the bedroom door.
Oh, it seems that no one in the family has gone to bed.
This week-long sales promotion was equivalent to a successful completion of an exam, but another exam was also approaching. There were less than ten days left, which was around the middle of the month, and he would be taking his first-year final exam.
However, before that, Grandpa, who had lived in the capital for more than half a month, and his parents, also had to return to the provincial capital.
This time, the old man insisted on taking the train again. \'I\'ve been on planes before, I\'m more comfortable on the train,\'
In the waiting hall of the West Railway Station, Mei Qiuping began her usual earnest teaching again: \'With your parents away, you two should get along well and be considerate of each other, especially you, Yiping. No matter what difficulties you encounter in your studies and work, don\'t lose your temper with Jingping, remember?
Also, although you will be very busy during the summer vacation, you must still come home to visit no matter what. Even if we don\'t want to, Jingping, your parents will miss you,\'
\'Yes, Auntie,\' Huang Jingping replied with a low bow.
\'You must come back. We have checked the dates, and we are moving next month. This is such a big event, how can you not come back?\' Feng Zhenchang said.
Yes, whether in the city or in the countryside, moving to a new home is always a big event.
\'I\'ll definitely go back,\' Feng Yiping said. As a son, he could not miss such an important event.
\'I don\'t know anything about business, but I\'d say that the money you\'re making now will last you a lifetime. Don\'t be too impatient. You rarely seem to have any free time, and staying up late is a common occurrence. You\'ll see that money is not everything in the end, and your health is the most important thing,\' his grandfather said.
\'Don\'t worry, Grandpa, I know. It\'s just that there\'s been a lot going on lately. It\'s not usually like this. Besides, I\'m in good health and can handle it. And I have a plan. I\'ll retire by the time I\'m 40,\' Feng Yiping said with a smile.
...
The noodle shop owners, who had just finished a month of training, rented a farmhouse near the training centre in the afternoon. It was like going home for the New Year, and they didn\'t have the chance to get together for a meal with so many of them. Coupled with the fact that they had just been liberated from a disciplined training life, the meal was very lively.
Although some of the courses in this month\'s training were a bit embarrassing for these people whose children have grown up, the practical explanations given by the invited trainers were still very rewarding.
Although everyone sometimes acted like they didn\'t care or were unhappy, in fact they all treasured the opportunity. A few years ago, when they were just ordinary people like them, how could they have had the chance to attend a class taught by an expert professor?
The dozens of vans that had been brought back were parked in a large area outside, catching people\'s eyes. When the boss came over to propose a toast, he asked, \'May I ask what kind of business you brothers are in?\'
\'We, well, we\'re not as good as you, boss,\' Xiao Jianping said with a smile, \'We just run a small noodle restaurant,\'
\'Yes, we run a noodle shop,\' everyone laughed.
After drinking too much, some people inevitably lose their temper. Feng Chuntang\'s brother-in-law muttered, \'It\'s just a noodle shop, who can\'t do it? We have to spend thousands of dollars to stay here for a month, and pretend to be subservient in front of those young teachers. I think this is completely pointless,\'
Once he said this, there was a long silence. Dong Mingge glared at him angrily, Feng Xinhua, who had been educated by his brothers for a month because of his card playing, also looked at him with dissatisfaction. Wang Changning\'s father, who was usually quiet and easy-going, also looked at him coldly. Xiao Jianping smiled without saying a word, but looked at Feng Chuntang.
Feng Chuntang strode over, grabbed his drunk brother-in-law by the collar and dragged him to the ground. Then he kicked him again and again. \'You ungrateful bastard! Why didn\'t you say this two years ago? You came to our house during the Chinese New Year and begged me on your knees to let Uncle Zhenchang give you a chance. You didn\'t have a penny, so I put up some of the money and Uncle Zhenchang guaranteed the rest of the loan at the credit union because he owed me a favour.
He did it for my sake, you foreigner. He didn\'t charge you a single cent for the franchise fee. You say such things today, have you no conscience?
Now you\'ve got your wings, you think you can do anything, that you\'re amazing? You know shit! Why don\'t you look at it, so many people open noodle shops, how many can be like us? Today I must teach you a good lesson on behalf of your late parents and your sister, who worries about you,\'
Feng Chuntang was serious. Originally in the gang, he was Feng Zhenchang\'s old comrade. Although they originally had a better life than Feng Yiping\'s family, they really became rich when Feng Zhenchang took them to the provincial capital to sell fried chestnuts and then opened the noodle shop. After hearing his brother-in-law\'s strange words, he was really angry.
His brother-in-law already drank quite a lot, and the moment Feng Chuntang dragged him to the ground, he was completely dazed. He really didn\'t believe that his brother-in-law would do this to him in front of so many people.
It wasn\'t until Feng Chuntang had kicked him five or six times with hatred that he reacted, \'Feng Chuntang, you fucking hit me,\'
and he reached for the stool next to him to fight back, but could he even move?
When Feng Chuntang moved, no, when he kicked, no one stopped him. Now that he wanted to move, a crowd immediately gathered around him. He didn\'t want to let go of the chair, but from his arm to his wrist, it was immediately squeezed by several people. He felt that the hand had lost all feeling, and then the chair was gently taken over by someone.
\'Hey, what can\'t you say to your cousin? There\'s no need to fight, right?\'
One after the other, when they said these things, they all seemed to pat him on the shoulder to emphasise their point. They really did it, and a few of them were especially forceful, such as Dongming. When the crowd dispersed, he had trouble holding the chair, let alone the chopsticks.
He suddenly remembered his deceased parents, his father and mother, and they were bullying your son in a group!
...
In the provincial capital, Xiao Zhijie and Wang Changning, who had already finished the exam, gathered together again with their respective girlfriends.
This time, the gathering was at Xiao Zhijie\'s house. In order to show that he was different from Wang Changning, comrade Xiao Zhijie did not keep hanging out with Zhang Qiuling like Wang Changning did – mainly because Zhang Qiuling was very annoying when she hung out in public. She kept sitting in the living room with Wang Changning.
\'What are your plans for the summer vacation? Yiping wants us to go to his place first. What do you think?\'
\'It\'s not a big deal, at most I\'ll help out at the family restaurant,\' Wang Changning said, and couldn\'t help looking at Yu Lian, who was busy in the kitchen.
Xiao Zhijie looked at him with contempt and whispered, "You\'re a guy who can\'t live without a woman,\'
then raised his voice, "Yiping said that we should go to the capital now to have some fun for a few days, and then go back to the provincial capital with him in the hotel\'s new stretch limousine. Do you have a problem with that?\'
\'I\'m fine with it,\' Wang Changning was not really like Xiao Zhijie thought, that he could not live without Yu Lian. The previous friendship between the three of them was quite heavy. "Is Qiu Ling going too?\'
\'I can\'t go, I have to do summer school. It\'s just Yu Lian and I keeping each other company. Don\'t worry, I\'ll keep an eye on her for you," Zhang Qiu Ling answered from the kitchen.
They weren\'t the only two going to the capital.
Huang Qinping had been acting like the monk Tang Seng these days, nagging her parents, \'Mom, Dad, you agreed, right? I\'ll go to the capital during the summer vacation to visit my sister and Brother Yiping,\'
Zheng Jiayi from the Polytechnic University was also having a get-together with her roommates and asked her about her summer plans, \'I\'ll probably go to the capital,\'
...
Capital, Feng Yiping was treating again. In the past two days, he had already treated several times.
The dinner before the holiday was hosted by Yan Zhida and Han Guiliang, two people from the capital. But the next day, it was Feng Yiping\'s turn to give a farewell dinner to Jin Bao, Yan Zhida and Han Guiliang, who were going to participate in a summer research project. Afterwards, before leaving school, Xiao Cai\'s in-laws, along with a few classmates from the Academy of Fine Arts, took Feng Yiping out for a meal and treated him to a feast.
As for today\'s meal, he invited it willingly. This meal is for the company\'s delegation to the United States.
Yes, the original plan was for only Jin Ling and Hong Haoran to go, but now it has become a delegation.
In addition to Jin Ling, the delegation includes Hong Haoran from Zhitong Company, Li Ruiyuan from the finance company, Gao Yiming from the magazine company, Ou Boyang, the head of foreign trade, and Yang Huajie, the deputy of the hotel boss Xu Bin.
\'Everyone has a task to perform on this trip, and it\'s not going to be easy. I\'d like to thank everyone in advance and wish you all the best,\' Feng Yiping raised his glass.
\'You should,\'
\'Don\'t worry,\'
\'It should be relatively easy to go at this time,\'
...
In the departure lounge, Feng Yiping smiled and pulled Hong Haoran aside. \'Brother Hong,\'
\'I\'m afraid not. What are your instructions, Boss Feng?\'
\'I\'m afraid too. Haha, I was just thinking that this wave of Internet company closures has not only caused many people to lose their jobs, but there are also an estimated large number of desktop computers, laptops, printers, and various other office and network equipment on the market. If you have time, pick up a container of those in good condition. You can use them at home anyway,\'
These crazy money-burning .com companies were willing to invest in equipment. They definitely bought expensive things, not the right things. Now that the building has collapsed, these things are probably being sold at a discount. But nowadays, various electronic devices, especially productivity tools, are not as cheap as they used to be. If you can buy a container back, you can definitely save the travel expenses for this trip.
Besides, Feng Yiping later envied those local tyrants who went to the United States on Black Friday every year and bought goods container after container. Hehe, now he could do the same.
\'I would like to take this opportunity to buy something for myself. Boss Feng, you are so generous. No problem, I promise to buy you a new batch of equipment at a discount,\' Hong Haoran gave a thumbs-up.
A very happy Feng Yiping then turned to Jin Ling, \'You are going a long way away, so you should take care of yourself,\'
Huang Jingping giggled, and Jin Ling also laughed, saying, \'I know you\'re a writer and educated, so I probably shouldn\'t say something like this at a time like this, but my teeth are aching, and going to the dentist in the US is not cheap.\'
\'Okay, I\'ll speak in plain language,\' Feng Yiping coughed, \'when you\'re away from home, you must remember what I told you: drink more, eat less.\'
The two of them laughed and giggled as they held hands, and finally stopped. Jin Ling asked, \'Did you say it backwards?\'
Huang Jingping also said, \'Yes,\'
\'Reversed? No! Anyway, when you meet different people, you should be flexible. For example, if you meet someone you like, then drink more and eat less, get drunk, give others a chance, and also give yourself a chance,\'
Jin Ling was angry, but Feng Yiping, who had been prepared, had already run up to Li Ruiyuan.
