The Era of Hard Work

Taking a taxi back to the guest house, Zhou Xuan hiccupped a few times and quickly lowered the car window to get some air. Originally, he didn't have a good capacity for alcohol, but he and Lu Dong had frequent wine fights at noon today, so he really drank too much.

The car braked to a stop, and something rushed up, so I hurriedly found the mineral water I asked for at the restaurant, unscrewed it and took a big gulp.

Zhou Xuan felt better, started the car again, recalled what he had said during the meal with Lu Dong, and got almost zero useful information.

From the looks of it, Lu Dong might not know.

These soldiers are so strict with their mouths? To the family members, don't even say anything vague?

Zhou Xuan's task is not complicated, even considered simple. He is asked to confirm whether he is researching a new type of fighter, which the F-16 or Mirage 2000 can't fight against at all.

Just make sure there is no such item.

He has self-knowledge, and he can't do things that are too complicated.

Arriving at the entrance of the guest house, Zhou Xuan got out of the car, walked into the gate, looked at the security guard standing guard, and frowned.

This seems simple to say, but it is not easy to do.

Fortunately, no one noticed him, and he was asking someone like Lu Dong who had never been a soldier.

With this thought, Zhou Xuan was actually afraid.

Why not approach Lu Xia directly? Zhou Xuan was afraid, and this fear came from two mentalities.

One comes from the use of the trading company's docking after joining in the first place, which seems to have taken a lot of benefits from the other party's hands, and sent out a lot of seemingly harmless information.

There are handles for people to hold on to, and money gains hanging in front of him, Zhou Xuan couldn't stop even if he wanted to.

The other is to face Lu Xia directly. He doesn't think that with his own ability, he can get words out of Lu Xia's mouth without a trace. Before he came here, his idea was to use money. Things like money really need to be piled up. Up, the power is quite terrifying.

But after visiting Lujia Village, and asking Xia Dan more carefully when he came back, Zhou Xuan was sure of one thing, the six-figure or even seven-figure money would not impress the target or the target's family.

To put it bluntly, they are richer than Zhou Xuan.

This was the real trouble, and what made him cringe subconsciously.

In addition, this family is very special and has strong beliefs.

Two generations, five males, four people joined the army, what is the concept?

Zhou Xuan finally chose a safe way to talk.

Even what I said to Lu Dong before when I met Lu Chun and Lu Xia was more like doing my best to obey the destiny.

I've seen people, I've made up my mind, I've seen the target, and I can at least make up things when I go back. If someone is staring at him, I know he's doing something, at least so that those people won't attack him immediately.

Zhou Xuan has always regretted it very much, this is a quagmire, if you fall into it, you can't get out again.

He used to paralyze himself, saying that this was a business, just a business, but he had received higher education, so he didn't understand in his heart that this business betrayed his conscience and his ancestors.

Back then, he was not this kind of person. When he saw the blood of the Sichuan Army saving the country sprinkled all over the great rivers and mountains of the motherland, his blood boiled with enthusiasm.

Now there is no turning back.

Whether you want it or not, there is only one way to go to the dark.

…………

After getting into the Audi car, Lu Dong rubbed his face to shake off the drowsiness caused by drinking too much, then took the mineral water Lu Kun handed over, unscrewed it and took a big sip.

"Brother Dong." Lu Kun lit up, "Are you okay?"

Lu Dong smiled and said, "What can I do? Let's go."

Lu Kun drove out of the restaurant and reminded: "Brother Dong, don't go to the University City, you drink so much, my sister-in-law saw you, and I have to blame you again."

Lu Dong leaned on the back of the chair and said, "I have business to do today."

Lu Kun didn't say any more, turned onto the provincial highway, and ran towards the university city.

In less than ten minutes, the car arrived at the University City. Lu Dong asked Lu Kun to drop him off at the gate of Wenyuan, the school, and entered the community alone.

He made a phone call first, and the other side said there was no problem, so Lu Dong came to the door of his and Song Na's little nest, and knocked on the door.

The door opened, and Lu Xia nodded: "Come in and talk."

Wei Guangrong got up from the sofa and asked, "Hey, boy, how much did you drink?"

Lu Dong took out a small tape recorder from his coat pocket and handed it to Wei Guangrong: "Isn't it just for clichés?"

"How is it?" Wei Guangrong had heard a lot about Lu Dong, and never worried about it from the beginning to the end: "You can speak well, have you found out?"

Lu Dong said: "How to find out? What if I meet a 007? There are all in the tape recorder. You can listen to it and judge for yourself. I don't understand your judgment criteria."

Wei Guangrong put away the tape recorder, and solemnly said to Lu Dong, "Thank you."

Lu Dong didn't give way: "You're welcome."

Wei Guangrong took his coat: "I'm leaving, I'll call you if I need anything."

Before leaving, he pointed to the group photo on the desk: "You have good eyesight, your girlfriend is very beautiful, no wonder you look down on Yu Jing."

Lu Dong hurriedly said, "Brother Wei, can we not mention this? I have never met Yu Jing."

Wei Guangrong put on his clothes: "When you are free, call your girlfriend and have dinner together."

Lu Dong and Lu Xia were sent to the door, Wei Guangrong didn't let them out, closed the door from the outside, turned around and left, went to a car parked next to the community, and said to the driver: "Go back to Quannan."

The two people in the room didn't stay long. Lu Xia had seen the group photo of Lu Dong and Song Na long ago, knew that this was their residence, and quickly said goodbye.

After leaving the door of the unit, Lu Dong asked: "Second brother, you go back? Or go to my company to see?"

"I'll go back." Lu Xia didn't want to cause trouble for Lu Dong.

The two came to the main road, just as Lu Xia was about to get in the car, a pretty girl came from the north wearing a hat.

"Lu Dong?" Song Na smelled alcohol before she came to her, "Why did you drink so much?"

Then, she saw the slightly shorter man next to Lu Dong, with an unfamiliar face.

Lu Dong quickly introduced: "Second brother, this is Song Na, my girlfriend. Hei... Song Na, this is my second brother, Lu Xia."

Song Na naturally knew who Lu Xia was, so she called people generously: "Second brother, I often hear Lu Dong talking about you."

Lu Xia smiled at Song Na: "Song Na, come home after Chinese New Year."

Song Na responded, "Okay."

Lu Xia said to Lu Dong again: "I'm leaving."

Watching Lu Xia drive away, Song Na asked, "Did you drink with the second brother?"

"No." Without Wei Guangrong's permission, Lu Dong would not tell anyone about Zhou Xuan. He just said, "With an investor who used to be a classmate of Xia Dan in the county TV station, he was doing import and export trade."

Song Na pushed Lu Dong towards the door of the unit: "Go to sleep for a while, don't run around after drinking."

In business, drinking is unavoidable. Song Na is relieved that Lu Dong has relatively strong self-control and good wine quality. At least he will go to bed after drinking too much.

Unlike some people who drink too much and make noises, throw things and smash things, and even climb up the house.

Back in the house, after washing his face and brushing his teeth, Lu Dong lay on the big bed that Song Na had just bought, and soon fell asleep.

Song Na was lying beside her, with her arms resting on the bedding, her hands holding her delicate and beautiful light wheat-colored face, watching quietly, just watching Lu Dong fall asleep.

Then, she kicked off her shoes and got close to Lu Dong's chest.

After lying down for a while, I didn't feel sleepy at all.

Song Na simply got up, put on her clothes and went out to buy vegetables, preparing to cook a stomach-warming dinner for Lu Dong.

Thinking of making pig's knuckle soup, she purposely entered the store through the Hamburg Queen's Gate, and planned to go to the front door to buy a pig's trotters at Lu's Juewei store.

"Mr. Song." An Hong is right next to the passageway from the back door to the kitchen. She is Du Jia's new store manager after he was transferred to Shanghai.

Song Na remembered that Lu Dong was protecting the female employee against Li Xingguo's pressure, and nodded and smiled at her: "Hello, An Hong."

Passing by the door, just looking through the glass door, I saw dishes coming out of the fryer, and asked, "Is the golden chicken chop officially served?"

"It was officially launched last week." An Hong replied: "I heard that Director Yang from the R\u0026D department has tested many times and solved some problems."

Song Na heard something from Lu Dong, and replied, "It's good."

Not to mention the stewed chicken, after Yang Feng entered Lu's Catering, his normal work in the R\u0026D department was worth the high salary.

Even without the braised chicken, the deal is still a bargain.

Song Na chatted with An Hong for a while, and then entered the store. It was mid-afternoon, and it was winter vacation. There were not many people in the store, and most of the waiters could rest for a while.

In order to save costs, there are many vacation workers from colleges in the store, especially the majority of locals.

A girl who was eighteen or nineteen saw Song Na and said hello: "Song... Mr. Song..."

Glancing at the girl who took the initiative to say hello, Song Na realized that she knew her, and even went with Lu Dong to give her money, and said with a smile, "Are you Liu Zaizhao?"

She thought of something, and asked casually: "Is your sister on vacation? She is also in her last year of university, is she taking the postgraduate entrance examination or doing an internship?"

Liu Zaizhao knew that this was her sister's high school classmate, and they seemed to gather together every year, so she didn't think much about it, and said, "My sister is preparing for an internship, and she has to deal with some things. She said she won't be back until after the junior year."

Song Na asked again: "Have you contacted the place for internship? Your sister has a degree, so you don't have to worry about nowhere to go."

"That's right." Liu Zaizhao is a student at the University of Finance and Economics, and he knows how resounding the blue and white signboard is: "I don't know what my sister thinks, it's good to stay in the capital and develop, a big company wants her to go, but she has to listen My dad’s, I want to go back to Qingzhao to develop.”

"Are you sure?" Song Na continued to ask.

Liu Zaizhao nodded slightly: "It's confirmed, the county has made arrangements, and it is said that it is an internship at the Qingzhao Cultural Tourism Planning Committee, and it is not an official unit..."

Song Na smiled: "This unit will be great in the future."

People who don't know about it outside just think that this is a temporary organization, but those who are well-informed know that it will soon become a permanent organization.

Moreover, Qingzhao's future positioning is a city of culture and tourism.

After chatting for a while, Song Na left Burger King, first went to the Lujia Juewei restaurant in the north to buy pig's trotters, then went to the farmers' market in the north to buy vegetables, and returned to the small nest to get busy with dinner.

When Lu Dong woke up from sleep, the food was almost ready.

He drank a lot of wine at noon and didn't eat much at all. Lu Dong was in an unusually good mood after eating the dinner made by Song Na.

Much better than the food in the hotel.

As the Chinese New Year was approaching, there were a lot of things to do at home, so Lu Dong went back to Lu's Village after dinner.

The next afternoon, Xia Dan suddenly came over.
