Rebirth of Merry Career
Chapter 42 Small 7
At 03:30 in the afternoon, Zhou Jing returned to the hotel and reported to Qin Xiaoqian about Boss Sun's plan to invest in Qingyang. Yang City's biggest achievement in attracting investment.
Lin Fusheng and He Yufeng were also very surprised when they got the news. They never expected that they would have such a big harvest this time. They looked at Zhou Jing with a little more admiration in their eyes.
This is the case with government agencies. Maybe everyone thinks differently at ordinary times, but if someone really achieves results, everyone will still be convinced. Especially, in the eyes of the two of them, Zhou Jing is still a young boy. It is not easy to attract such a large investment.
Of course, as long as the contract is not signed and the funds are not in place, there will be too much to do. Therefore, Qin Xiaoqian also reminded Zhou Jing to be mentally prepared. According to past experience, as long as one part of the work is not done well, it will be very difficult. It's easy to waste all your previous efforts and just be happy for nothing.
Everyone had dinner downstairs, packed up their things, and was about to leave Wuyang and return to Qingyang City. Before leaving, Zhou Jing knocked on the door of the next room, but no one answered. He went to the front desk downstairs to inquire. But I got the news that Concubine Chen Xue had already checked out and left this morning.
He took out his mobile phone and called up Chen Xuefei's number. After hesitating for a while, he shook his head lightly, sighed, and put the mobile phone back into his coat pocket. It seems a little inappropriate to make this call again, and interrupt me hastily.
Besides, even if he made a phone call, what could he say? Although Zhou Jing admired that glamorous and beautiful girl very much, in terms of feelings, since he already had Li Jiani, he couldn't be greedy anymore.
An hour later, everyone got on the train with big and small bags, talking and laughing as they did when they came here, playing poker, and after a while, they saw an old man with a gray beard leading a ragged The little girl came over, begging from seat to seat.
"Everyone, please do me a favor and give me some money. My granddaughter hasn't had a full meal for two days." change.
The little girl was born delicately, especially with her big watery eyes, she seemed to be able to talk, and she was extremely cute, but due to long-term malnutrition, her complexion was somewhat ugly, her thin body was trembling slightly, and she seemed to feel some cold.
The reactions of the passengers were very different. Some people felt sorry for the old and the young, so they took out the change and handed it over. Some people ignored it and talked about it. When I got off the train, I went to the restaurant, and my life was more carefree than anyone else.
The two walked all the way, and when they stopped beside Zhou Jing and the others, he hurriedly took out some change, put it in a bowl, took a black coat, and put it on the little girl, who stretched out a pair of dirty clothes. The little hand was tightly pinching the corner of the clothes, his eyes were full of gratitude, but he just nodded and didn't speak.
Seeing this, Qin Xiaoqian also put down the card, took out a hundred-yuan bill from her pocket, and handed it to the old man. The old man took the bill, and hurriedly thanked her, saying repeatedly: "Thank you, thank you, I really met a good man, girl , you are not only handsome, but also have the heart of a Bodhisattva, you will surely live a long life."
After the two left, Qin Xiaoqian sighed and whispered: "This child is really pitiful. He is only six or seven years old. He has to live this kind of hard life, but he doesn't know when he will be able to escape from the sea of suffering."
But He Yufeng smiled and said softly: "Xiaoqian, you probably don't know that in many places now, people from the whole village come out to beg, adults and children all go into the train, this trip, at least a few hundred, as many as Thousands, some people became rich in less than two years, and they all built general buildings."
Qin Xiaoqian didn't believe it, waved her hand, and sighed: "Such people are a minority after all. Many people are desperate, so they have to be beggars. It's good to fill their stomachs. How can they get rich."
He Yufeng chuckled, shook her head and said, "Xiao Qin, you have a bodhisattva heart, you are too kind, you can't do this, you can be easily deceived."
At this moment, a passenger picked up the conversation, and said in a long voice, "That's right, that old man is dedicated to running this line. Don't look at his pitiful appearance now, as if he could be blown down by a gust of wind, but he is actually quite strong. Now, every time he comes out to beg, he brings a different granddaughter, do you know why?"
Qin Xiaoqian was stunned for a moment, and said puzzledly, "Why?"
The man snorted and said indifferently: "Those children, some are rented, some are picked up, usually he takes the children to beg, and when he meets a suitable family, he sells the children, which is also a lot of income , I heard that there are still people who take advantage of the passengers not paying attention to steal children away!"
"How could you do this? It's really hurtful!" He Yufeng couldn't listen anymore, and interjected angrily.
The man also sighed, shook his head and said: "Nowadays in this world, all kinds of strange things will happen. To put it bluntly, it means that people's hearts are broken, and they only accept money and ignore reason."
The people next to him all echoed and chattered, as if they were not used to many things now.
A few people played cards for a while, and after eating their boxed lunches, they squinted on their seats and took a nap, and stopped talking. In the early hours of the morning, the car drove to Qingyang Station, and everyone was wrapped in the crowd, got out of the platform, and exchanged a few words , each took a taxi and left.
Zhou Jing also waved for a taxi, and just about to open the car door, he suddenly heard a slight voice behind him: "Uncle, can you help me?"
He froze for a moment, then turned his head, only to see a seven or eight-year-old girl standing on the side of the road under a street lamp not far behind him, looking at him with tears in her eyes. On the train, the little guy who was begging with the old man was still wearing the coat she gave her.
Zhou Jing hurriedly walked over, squatted down, and said softly: "Little girl, why are you here?"
The little girl moved her lips, wiped her tears with her hands, and said aggrievedly: "Uncle, they have discussed it. In a few days, they will break my leg and walk on my feet. That way more people will give money. When they were not paying attention, they sneaked out and followed you out of the car."
Zhou Jing's nose was sour, he almost cried, and said softly: "Little girl, do you still remember where home is?"
The little girl shook her head, her face was full of bewilderment, and after a while, she whispered, "It's been a long time since I came out, and I don't remember anything from the past."
Zhou Jing sighed, and asked patiently, "Do you still remember the names of your parents?"
The little girl was still shaking her head, shrunk into a ball, and sobbed, "Uncle, take me away. I can cook and wash clothes. As long as my legs don't break, I can do anything!"
Zhou Jingjing nodded, reached out to wipe her tears, and said softly: "Okay, go back with uncle, from now on, no one will dare to bully you again!"
The little girl smiled through tears, nodded and said: "Uncle, let me tell you, I am not naughty at all, and I have a small appetite. I only need a small steamed bun every day to be full."
"That's not possible. You are still young, and it is time to grow your body. You need to eat more." Zhou Jing smiled slightly, took her little hand, walked to the taxi, sat in it, and returned home.
Back upstairs, Zhou Jing took the key to open the door and brought the little girl into the room. At this moment, the door opened, and her mother, Yuan Xiuhua, had just finished grading homework. When she heard the noise, she walked out slowly. She saw the little girl The girl couldn't help being taken aback, and asked curiously, "Xiaojing, whose child is this?"
Zhou Jing smiled, walked up to her, whispered something in his ear, explained the whole story clearly, and then whispered: "Mom, this child is quite pitiful, why don't we adopt it!"
After hearing this, Yuan Xiuhua's eyes turned red, she walked over, bent down and asked, "Little girl, what's your name?"
The little girl touched her mouth with her hand, and said somewhat restrainedly: "The ones without a name, they all call me Xiaoqi."
Yuan Xiuhua sighed, and said softly, "Come on, let's take a bath first."
The little girl nodded and followed Yuan Xiuhua into the bathroom. After 10 minutes, she came out wearing a large T-shirt and pulling the hem of the clothes with her hands carefully.
Yuan Xiuhua entered the bedroom, woke up her husband Zhou Xueming, pulled him out, and said with a smile: "Old Zhou, come and see, I have adopted a goddaughter, how is it?"
Zhou Xueming was in a drowsy sleep. At this moment, he suddenly woke up, looked at the little girl with wide eyes, nodded and said: "Yes, this child is very good, but how did you adopt it?"
"Xiao Jing brought it back from the train." Yuan Xiuhua leaned over, told the story again, and said with a smile: "Lao Zhou, you used to always think about having a daughter, but this time you will get your wish. "
Zhou Xueming chuckled, nodded and said, "That's right, this kid looks like he's from our family."
The little girl was extremely clever. Hearing what he said, she took a step forward, bowed and said, "Hello, dad, hello, mom. From now on, Xiaoqi will be your precious daughter."
"Okay, okay, look how sensible this kid is, he can really talk!" Yuan Xiuhua was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear, she quickly put on her apron, and said with a smile: "Xiao Qi, I must be hungry after staying on the train for a long time , Mom will make you some supper right now."
The little girl smiled sweetly, and said shyly: "Mom, it's too late, don't be busy, pay attention to rest, and don't get tired."
Yuan Xiuhua was elated when she heard that, and said with a pleasant smile, "I'm not tired, not at all, Xiao Qi, just sit there and rest, and you'll be fine soon."
Zhou Xueming also said: "Xiaoqi is really sensible, don't stand there, go and sit down."
"Thank you, Mom and Dad." The little girl pursed her lips into a smile, walked to the edge of the sofa, and whispered, "Uncle, I will call you brother from now on."
Zhou Jing was a little dumbfounded, touched his chin, and said slowly: "This small mouth is so sweet. It seems that when you come to our house, I, an older brother, will fall out of favor!"
The little girl stuck out her tongue and said playfully, "Brother, I'm sorry, if I've done something wrong, you must speak out, and I will correct it."
Zhou Jing smiled slightly, shook his head and said, "No, little sister Qi, you've done a good job, we all like you very much."
The little girl said 'hmm', and sat next to him, holding her little face in her hands, looking left and right, blinking her big watery eyes, and said obediently: "That's it, Xiaoqi finally has a home too!"
Lin Fusheng and He Yufeng were also very surprised when they got the news. They never expected that they would have such a big harvest this time. They looked at Zhou Jing with a little more admiration in their eyes.
This is the case with government agencies. Maybe everyone thinks differently at ordinary times, but if someone really achieves results, everyone will still be convinced. Especially, in the eyes of the two of them, Zhou Jing is still a young boy. It is not easy to attract such a large investment.
