The Rise of Heavy Industry 1980

Sending Zhang Miaomiao home, Wang Chaoyang was warmly welcomed by Zhang Lianjun and his wife.

After dinner, when Wang Chaoyang was about to leave, Zhang Lianjun and his wife began to try their best to stay. It's so late, they plan to leave Wang Chaoyang at home for the night, otherwise Wang Chaoyang will have to find a hotel to live in.

"It's not convenient, is it?" Wang Chaoyang said.

"What's inconvenient, let Miao Miao live in the master bedroom with her mother, you sleep in the second bedroom, and I will lay the floor in the living room!

Hearing this, Zhang Miaomiao stomped her feet, and she was indeed familiar with Wang Chaoyang, but she still felt awkward living under the same roof.

Wang Chaoyang shook his head and said: "Uncle Zhang, don't be polite to me, I'm not afraid of anything as a young man, and it's convenient to go out and find a hotel." It's rare for your family of three to be reunited, and I'm sorry to disturb you. Seeing

that Wang Chaoyang's mind had been decided, Zhang Lianjun couldn't insist anymore, but he still came up with a lot of ideas in terms of hotels, after all, this is Nanyang City, and he is more familiar with it.

Wang Chaoyang made an appointment with Zhang Miaomiao to pick her up tomorrow morning, and then left.

Nanyang City, although Wang Chaoyang has been here many times, he has not had the opportunity to hang out, so he is not familiar with it.

It was already evening, and Wang Chaoyang controlled the speed of the car to about thirty miles, looking for a hotel while familiarizing himself with the surrounding environment.

There was a sudden shouting in the distance, Wang Chaoyang saw a man running wildly with the help of the rearview mirror, and now the outdoor temperature did not exceed ten degrees, but the man was only wearing a vest and big pants, and there were four men chasing behind him, scolding while chasing.

"Stop! Bastard, stop

!" "I'm going to kill you if I catch you!"

......

The man in front of him fell in a panic and broke his foot, and the four men behind caught up with him, seeing that it was a punch and kick.

At this time, Wang Chaoyang had already stopped the car, opened the car door and shouted, "Stop!"

The four men were all stunned and glanced at Wang Chaoyang.

"Who are you, don't be nosy

!" "I'll take care of this matter, see which of you dares to do it!" was

drunk by Wang Chaoyang, and the four men immediately hesitated. In this era, there are not many people who can drive a car, and coupled with the momentum exuded by Wang Chaoyang, the four men are a little afraid to mess around.

"Why did you hit him?" Wang Chaoyang asked.

"If you don't pay back the money, of course we will beat him!" the other party said.

"How much do you owe you?" Wang Chaoyang asked.

"One hundred and fifteen!" said the other party.

"I'll pay for him!" Wang Chaoyang took out one hundred and fifty yuan from his wallet and handed it over.

The four of them hesitated for a while, took the money, and left.

The man on the ground hugged his calves, showed a painful expression, and asked in a rather unfriendly tone: "Who are you, Lao Tzu's own business, want you to meddle in your affairs

?" Wang Chaoyang approached the other party and slapped him on the back of the head: "Look at what you can bear, you Brother Chaoyang don't remember?"

The other party raised his head, looked at Wang Chaoyang carefully for a while, and then shouted with a big grin: "Chao...... Brother Chaoyang, why are you...... My God, I never thought I would meet you here!"

It turned out that the man who was chased and beaten was a friend from Wang Chaoyang's village, named Chen Xianglong.

Chen Xianglong and Wang Chaoyang are the same age, and the two have been inseparable playmates since childhood...... was jokingly called a pair of "little devils in the mixed world" by the villagers.

After growing up, Wang Chaoyang was pulled into the Red Star Factory by Wang Song to work, and Chen Xianglong's family moved to the city, and the two have been cut off since then. When he first saw him, if it weren't for Chen Xianglong's previous appearance, Wang Chaoyang wouldn't have recognized him.

"Don't be in a hurry to speak, are you okay with your legs?" Wang Chaoyang asked.

"It's okay, what is this little injury...... Chen Xianglong gritted his teeth and stood up, moving his ankles and ankles, barely able to walk.

"Let's get in the car first and see if there is a clinic nearby. Wang Chaoyang helped Chen Xianglong to Santana.

Sitting in the car, Chen Xianglong's eyes were almost straight.

"Brother Chaoyang, I haven't seen you for three or four years, you can mix it up now, you even drive a car!"

"It's okay." Let's talk about you, how have you been chased and beaten all these years?" asked Wang Chaoyang.

"Hey, it's hard to put into words!" Chen Xianglong grinned, "Brother Chaoyang, I haven't eaten at night, let's find a place to drink and chat

?" "Are you sure you don't need to go to the clinic to see?" Wang Chaoyang asked.

"It's not so pretentious, don't you know that I'm rough and thick-skinned!"

"Oh well. Wang Chaoyang really wanted to know the experience of this childhood friend.

Santana drove a few hundred meters ahead and found a restaurant that was still lit up. With luggage in the trunk, Wang Chaoyang found a set of his own clothes and pants for Chen Xianglong to wear, otherwise he would suffer too much in this cold day.

Entering the restaurant, they ordered two hot dishes and a bottle of Ningta liquor, and the two chatted while eating.

Through chatting, Wang Chaoyang learned that Chen Xianglong has not been going well in recent years.

After the family of three moved to Nanyang City, Chen Xianglong's parents made money by doing small business, but unfortunately had a car accident and both left. At that time, Chen Xianglong was not yet eighteen years old.

Without financial resources, Chen Xianglong had to find his own way, worked as a temporary worker in a factory, worked in a restaurant, and set up his own stall, but he didn't do it long. And because of the people I came into contact with, I gradually became addicted to gambling, and I wanted to have fun when I had money in my hand, but it slowly became the point where I have eaten the last meal but not the next meal.

In the end, Chen Xianglong's eyes turned red: "Brother Chaoyang, in short, my life over the years is not as good as a dog! Sometimes I think, why is God so unfair, some people eat fragrant and spicy food, and some people can't even eat chaff!"

Chen Xianglong drank a big sip of liquor, a little drunk: "In my opinion, God is really not a thing...... Don't talk about others, let's just talk about the two of us, we grew up together with bare butts since childhood, and we mix together every day...... But look at it now, you even drive a car, but I look like a beggar

!" Wang Chaoyang sighed and said: "Then what are your plans in the future?"

Chen Xianglong smiled: "What can I plan, over the years, I have done everything, but I can't do anything well, I am just a waste, I don't know what I should do!"

Wang Chaoyang thought for a while and said: " Follow me for the time being, find a hotel tonight, and I'll see if I can help you find a stable job tomorrow.

Chen Xianglong was already seven points drunk, and he didn't think about Wang Chaoyang's words, but just nodded in confusion.

It was already past nine o'clock in the evening after eating, and there was a hotel next to the restaurant, so Wang Chaoyang did not look for other places.

asked for a double room, helped the drunk Chen Xianglong to the bed, Wang Chaoyang lay on his bed, looking at the ceiling but couldn't sleep for a long time.
