The Era of Hard Work

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Lu Dong entered the Warm Warehouse from the outside with a handbag in hand. Just in time, some shoppers came to check out, so they stood by and waited for a while.

After Song Na finished paying the bill, Lu Dong asked casually, "Aren't your parents here?"

Song Na glanced at the bag in his hand and said, "I went to the northern market to buy vegetables."

Lu Dong came to the counter and put the handbag on it: "Heidan, I gave it to you."

"What?" Song Na took it over and looked at it: "It's so mysterious."

She took out a box from her handbag, and there was a picture of a mobile phone on the box: "Mobile phone? How much does it cost?"

Lu Dong said: "I remember your birthday, but I don't know the exact date, so I will give you an early birthday present."

Song Na opened the box, and inside was a mobile phone about ten centimeters in length, and asked, "How much did it cost?"

Lu Dong was vague: "Not many."

Song Na asked: "There must be a number."

Lu Dong scratched his head: "More than 3,000."

Song Na kept it in mind, opened the box and took out her phone to check

Lu Dong reminded: "I've already set up the Internet connection. You can check the number yourself. I just thought that it would be convenient for us to make calls if we have a mobile phone, so that you won't have to run out to make business calls at night."

People came to check out one after another, and Song Na received the phone first, and was busy collecting money.

When the people left, she picked up the phone and dialed Lu Dong's number. When Lu Dong's phone rang, she said without any pretense, "I'll accept what you gave as a gift. Don't buy such expensive ones in the future."

Lu Dong smiled: "It's mainly convenient to contact. If I need to find you in the future, I can find you with just one phone call."

Song Na put her phone in her bag, put the others away, and put them upstairs.

Lu Dong looked at the time and reminded: "Your parents will be back in a while, go to the south to find me, let's go to Sister Juan's, I have bought everything."

"Okay." Song Na replied.

Another person came to check out, Lu Dong didn't say much, and went to the two new shops in the south.

When no one was around, Song Na sat on a chair and had fun, and her boyfriend gave her a birthday present, of course she was happy.

But things are a bit expensive.

Did I also give Lu Dong a gift? What should I give?

Go back and ask Huang Juan? No, this guy's so-called expert is self-proclaimed.

When the old Song and his wife came back, Song Na picked up her bag, put on her hat, and went to meet Lu Dong at the new store in the south. Instead of going to the south gate of the community, she went directly to the Wenyuan of the school through the back door left by the previous kitchen.

Song Na held Lu Dong's arm, looked at the big long cardboard box in his hand: "Is this a tea set?"

Lu Dong said: "Wenguo, we can't come empty-handed. I think Brother Qian is a good tea drinker, so I bought a set that is popular now."

Song Na nodded: "Alright."

When the two came to Building No. 3, Lu Dong knocked on the small iron gate on the south side, and the door opened from the inside, and Zhao Juanjuan came out to welcome them.

"Dongzi, Xiao Song, fast forward! Fast forward!" Zhao Juanjuan looked at Song Na and said, "Xiao Song, I haven't seen you for more than a month, and you are getting more and more handsome."

Song Na smiled and said, "Sister Juan, you are beautiful."

Zhao Juanjuan's eyes fell on Song Na's hand holding Lu Dong's arm, and asked, "Are you two dating?"

Lu Dong replied, "Yes."

Zhao Juanjuan seemed to be very happy for the two of them: "It's great that you two are together, and you are a perfect match."

Song Na was a little embarrassed and said, "Sister Juan, let's go in and talk."

"Oh, look at me!" Zhao Juanjuan hurriedly let the person into the room: "I'm happy to be patronizing."

After entering the room, Qian Rui was on the phone at the restaurant in the north, and when he saw Lu Dong and Song Na coming in, he quickly said a few words and hung up the phone.

"It's all from my own family!" Qian Rui saw the box that Lu Dong put down: "I still have something to bring!"

Lu Dong deliberately said: "Just this time, I will definitely not bring it next time!"

The four of them were very familiar with each other. They sat on the sofa and talked a few words about Lu Dong and Song Na, and then the topic turned to Zhao Juanjuan's child.

"I just thought, it's close to the university, and the atmosphere is good." Once a woman is pregnant, her thoughts will change. Zhao Juanjuan's head is full of children: "This child has felt the atmosphere of the university from the womb, and he will be able to study hard in the future. Don't be like I am like Lao Qian, and have suffered so much."

Lu Dong answered, "It's just right from here, elementary school, middle school, university, all the way."

Qian Rui smiled: "That's not true! Juanjuan and I will make our home here from now on! Dongzi, Xiao Song, will often come to play in the future."

Zhao Juanjuan said: "Song Na, do you have a lot of beautiful gadgets in your shop? I'll go and have a look when I'm free these two days."

Song Na replied: "Okay, you can call me someday."

She and Zhao Juanjuan exchanged cell phone numbers.

Zhao Juanjuan thought it was a mess, so she didn't invite more people, and her business partners didn't bring her home. Tonight, she only invited Lu Dong and Song Na. When it was almost five o'clock, she went to the kitchen to cook, and Song Na came to help.

Lu Dong and Qian Rui stayed in the living room to talk.

"I heard that a group of foreign businessmen came to investigate some time ago." Qian Rui poured tea for Lu Dong: "There are many opportunities in this university town."

Lu Dong said: "If you invest in building a factory, Brother Qian can find a way to get more projects."

Qian Rui said with a smile: "The project I did seems to be quite large in size. It is subcontracted layer by layer, and the profit is limited. I can't compare to your two shops after a year of busy work."

He asked: "I heard from Juanjuan that you plan to follow the chain operation model?"

Lu Dong simply said: "With this consideration in mind, the main thing now is to stabilize the two stores in the university town, and then open a store in the county."

The two men were doing business outside, and the two women were not idle in the kitchen.

Zhao Juanjuan picked the vegetables and asked, "Song Na, I think you were interested in Lu Dong last year?"

Song Na just smiled, not admitting it, but also not denying it.

Zhao Juanjuan continued: "I'm telling you, grab your hands if you like it! You two are a good match! You are the same age, both look good, and have similar family conditions. Is it better than this?"

Song Na smiled: "I just feel happy being with him, happy, and full of energy in everything I do." She suddenly thought of something, she could ask Zhao Juanjuan: "Sister Juan, Lu Dong just gave me a mobile phone, I want to give him some Things, I don’t understand these things, what should I give?”

Zhao Juanjuan has a general understanding of the actual financial situation of the two of them: "You two are not short of money. Sending each other some daily necessities can deepen your relationship. Generally speaking, wallets, belts and watches are the first choices for gifts for men."

She thought of an idea: "I'm going to Quannan on weekends, why don't we go shopping together?"

Song Na thought for a while and said, "Okay, call me then."

At half past six, six dishes were placed on the dining table, and the four of them ate while talking, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

Pregnant women tend to get tired easily, before eight o'clock, Lu Dong and Song Na left.

The two of them held hands, walked in the Xuefu Wenyuan, deliberately took a long way, and came out from the main entrance of the Xuefu Wenyuan.

There are many people on the east-west school road, and many of them are college students in pairs.

As soon as the two of them walked west, Du Xiaobing, who was wearing a Nike sportswear, came to meet him, and someone behind him called: "Xiaoyao Wang, wait for me!"

Xu Man hurriedly followed.

Du Xiaobing glanced at Lu Dong and Song Na: "Go ahead, I won't disturb you, we'll talk tomorrow if we have something to say."

He walked towards the Academy of Arts.

Xu Man smiled at the two of them, and hurriedly followed.

After Lu Dong and Song Na walked together, they always let their friends take their course, neither specifically telling anyone, nor thinking of hiding it from others.

The big guys also know it well.

Du Xiaobing said to Lu Dong two days ago: "I knew you were going to get together."

Lu Dongxin said, is it so obvious?

At night, the two stores were crowded with people, and there were more than a dozen regular employees alone, and they were still very busy.

During Lu Dong's recent inspection, there are stalls selling Malatang in the greenhouse market, and stores similar to Lu's Malatang have also opened in the shops in the Huayuan District in the south and the North District in Innovation Port.

But these will not affect the business of Mala Tang shop at all.

Among the shops in the university city, only Burger King can really compete with Mala Tang's business.

Lu Dong is going to launch the membership card and stored value card business, but the store is newly opened, and it needs to gather popularity to let customers build confidence in the store.

…………

Night enveloped the Sports Academy, and an indoor stadium was brightly lit.

More than 20 students gathered around the edge of the field which was half the size of a basketball court, watching the two people inside flashing around.

The two wore protective gear, one was born with a bad face, and the other was a bit stocky.

People born with evil looks are young, nimble like monkeys, and they walk very fast.

The honest man was in his thirties, and he was easily dodged when he punched many times.

Yuan Baoshan acted as the referee, and most of his thoughts were on people who were born with evil looks. This Qiao Weiguo was a good guy, but it was a pity that he was delayed.

A lot of people who are engaged in spreading martial arts are really cheating and abducting.

The honest man frequently missed punches, a little too impatient, and kicked high when he saw the opportunity.

Qiao Weiguo caught his leg and pushed it forward, causing the solid man to fall to the ground.

Yuan Baoshan immediately stood between the two of them.

The honest man got up from the ground, stopped fighting, and said, "You have won."

Someone came to help him take off the protective gear, and the honest man went to shake hands with Qiao Weiguo: "You are improving too fast."

Qiao Weiguo also took off his protective gear, and with a bald head, he said, "Accept."

Yuan Baoshan came over, commented with the two of them, and announced that today's class was over.

Qiao Weiguo went to change clothes, put on his bag and left the gymnasium, and walked towards the school gate. The honest man led the two of them and chased after him.

The honest man walked side by side with Qiao Weiguo, and said, "Qiao Weiguo, I don't think you are a student of the Physical Education College. I heard that you are working for others outside. It is too wasteful. Why don't you follow me!"

Qiao Weiguo didn't know how to be tactful, so he directly refused: "No, I have a job!"

The honest man asked, "Why don't you listen, how much should I pay you?"

Comrade Wei Guo was determined: "No, I won't go for any money."

The honest man was happy: "Be my bodyguard! I will pay you 2,000 yuan a month!"

"Thank you!" Qiao Weiguo imitated Lu Dong's tone: "No need."

The honest man stopped and watched Qiao Weiguo walk away: "This man is interesting."

A follower came over from behind and said, "Boss..."

The honest man waved his hand: "These days, there are few such people, and I don't know where they came from."

Qiao Weiguo walked forward resolutely, without turning his head back. He said he would follow Lu Dong, and he would follow Lu Dong.

Behind, the honest man got into a Mercedes-Benz, and the car circled to the north gate and left from the south side of the greenhouse market.
