I invited Tang Ning to have a supper, and when I returned to my accommodation, it was already late at night, and I habitually lit a cigarette before going to bed, and then planned in my heart how to go in the future.
I'm probably going to look for a job related to used cars, but I don't really have any other skills to make a living. This lack gave me a painful feeling of a worrying future, and I couldn't sleep, so I stared at the ceiling in a daze; And this pressure of survival has made me insomnia for several days.
Thinking of the 170,000 cash that was taken away by Lao Yu and my mother, my scalp was even more numb... I was suddenly afraid to see Cha Xiaoqing again, at this stage, I have no ability to repay this money, if Cha Xiaoqing chooses to do things because of hatred, I am afraid that I will really not be able to eat and go.
...
In the middle of the night, I had another dream, and this dream turned out to be a continuation of that dream yesterday... I dreamed that I went to Germany with Cha Xiaoqing.
The dream was very vague, so I couldn't remember which city I went to in Germany, and my dream was full of the kind of European-style buildings that had been baptized by time and war: earthy yellow bricks, red tiles, and green leaves fluttering in the wind, and Cha Xiaoqing was sitting next to me.
We didn't say anything, we were silent until a street performer stood beside us; He gave us a sand painting, and after the performance, Cha Xiaoqing said to me: "Aftertaste, he performed specifically for us, you give him a little money as a thank you." "
"I don't have any money."
"I didn't put 170,000 yuan in cash with you, how could I have no money?"
I looked at Cha Xiaoqing, and she looked at me too, but her eyes became colder and more distrustful, and I became more and more nervous... I don't know where the money went, but she did give it to me.
I woke up from my dream and found myself in a cold sweat; I know that the psychological pressure caused by these 170,000 yuan is too great, so I have such a dream.
I went to the bathroom and washed my face with cold water, then sat on a stool on the balcony and looked at the city as dawn approached...
I always thought that the night was the peak of loneliness, but I didn't expect that a person's early morning would be so lonely! The loneliness at this time is not because of being alone, but more because of the confusion and panic about the future.
...
When I arrived at the company, I took stock of the remaining used cars in the garage; Towards noon, Mr. Zhang took me to a restaurant near the company, where he ordered my favorite braised pork with shover rolls, kung pao chicken, and a few plates of cold dishes that could be served with wine.
I smiled and asked him, "Mr. Zhang, how do you know that I like to eat braised pork with shover rolls?" "
"Don't think I'm so unkind, my valued employees usually pay attention to it... Last time, the company entertained customers, did you eat this dish and eat the most? "
I replied with an incredulous face: "Fortunately, when I followed you, I didn't make any big mistakes in principle, and your insight is really quite alarming!" "
Elder Zhang also smiled, and then asked me again, "What are your plans for the future?" "
"Stand the last shift for the company, and talk about other things when you are really free."
"You'll be free this afternoon, so think about it as soon as possible."
"Didn't you say it would take a week, why was it so fast?"
Elder Zhang replied: "I have a friend who is ready to take over all the second-hand cars on our side, you do a handover with their people at noon, and your task will be completed." "
I nodded, feeling a little sad, and then subconsciously looked in the direction of the garage, working here for more than two years, what impressed me the most was the open space behind the garage where I could see the seaside, and whenever I felt uncomfortable because of life, I would go there to sit for a while...
In the future, I'm afraid that I really won't have the opportunity to feel there anymore, and life is like this, there will inevitably be countless partings, and after a thousand tempers, it will also cast an indifferent me, so I didn't show my sadness in front of the big boss, I smiled instead, and said to him: "As soon as you say this, I suddenly feel relaxed, this afternoon, I have to find a place to relax!" "
Da Lao Zhang poured me a beer, then raised his glass to me, and after drinking it, we fell into a brief silence, and I saw his apology in Da Lao Zhang's eyes... I know that he is still a responsible boss, and the company has done this business to death, causing us to lose our jobs, and he is actually quite uncomfortable in his heart.
I wanted to say a few words of comfort to him, but I didn't want to, but he spoke to me first, "Tell me something... My friend opened a new car dealership in Tianjin Port Free Trade Zone, and the business scope is similar to ours... He now has one less sales manager on his side and asks me if I have a suitable candidate here... I recommended you to him... If you are interested, go to Tianjin and talk to him in person... I can give you a thorough explanation, if you can negotiate, the business commission is not counted, and the basic salary is 12,000. "
I'm pretty sure my heart skipped a beat, and then I longed for Tianjin; However, when I remembered another thing, my heart sank, and I tentatively asked the elder Zhang, "Is he urgently hired for this position?" "
"If it weren't for the urgent hiring, he wouldn't have asked me here... I strongly recommend you to him, and you still have a good chance. "
I know very well in my heart that I can't leave so unexplained, because I have to give Cha Xiaoqing an explanation, not to mention that she misunderstood me, just the 170,000, I must also explain it clearly, otherwise there will be endless troubles... However, I can't find her at all now, so I can only wait for her to come to me.
Seeing that I didn't speak, Elder Zhang looked puzzled and asked me, "What, do you have any difficulties?" "
"If it's an urgent job, then I really can't go for the time being... I have other things on my hands that I haven't done. "
"Aftertaste, opportunities don't come often, that's really my iron buddy, if you don't have a certain certainty, I won't let you go to Tianjin for nothing!"
"Thank you for your kindness... Mr. Zhang... But there are things that are really more important than a job, so you might as well give this opportunity to other people in the company... They're also unemployed and probably need this opportunity more than I do. "
"Don't be busy refusing first, I'll give you another day, you think about it, think about it... If by this time tomorrow, you still don't feel like you're going to be able to go... I'll let Xiao Zhao go to Tianjin. "
...
After eating, the elder Zhang wrote me a note and asked me to go to the finance to receive three months' salary; Once I get this money, I'm going to leave the company completely.
I called Tang Guo to the back of the garage, then handed her the salary I had just gotten, and said, "It's a total of 12,000 yuan, you can order it." "
"You can use it first, I'm not in a hurry."
"Didn't you shout two days ago that you had no money to repay the car loan... You and I really don't have to be so polite, anyway, this money will have to be returned to you sooner or later. "
Tang Guo looked left and right, and then whispered to me: "I'll tell you this, you must not tell anyone else... On that day, I sold the second-hand Range Rover we went to see... I made 60,000 yuan as soon as I changed hands... I'm not short of money lately, so you can keep this money for your own use first, and I'll talk to you when I'm short of money. "
I looked at Tang Guo and felt incredible, she really pried Da Lao Zhang's customer, who was originally going to buy a new car.
I sighed softly and said to her, "Don't do this in the future... Da Lao Zhang is actually a good boss, and it is really a bit unkind for you to pry his customers like this! "
"Come on, if he were a good boss, would he get all of you who make used cars out of work?"
"It's a quote, you can't blame him... Tang Guo, I sincerely advise you, don't do this kind of thing in the future, Da Lao Zhang is very alert, if you have more times, he will definitely find out. "
"See how alert he is."
"He even knows that I like to eat braised pork with shover rolls... Do you think he is a person with strong insight? ... Moreover, that's not the point... I really think that Da Lao Zhang is a person who deserves our people to work for him... Your time in the company is not too short, don't you know what Lao Zhang did to you? ... The whole company, he values you the most. "
After a period of silence, Tang Guo finally spoke to me and said, "Okay, I have a sense of proportion in this matter. "
"Well, then without further ado, I'll go first."
Tang Guo looked at the cardboard box I was holding in my hand, and asked with emotion, "Are you really gone?" "
"It's really gone, take care of yourself in the future."
...
After leaving the company, I went to the dock that I named "The Fool", where I longed to meet Cha Xiaoqing and solve all the problems that hung between us... Because, from my heart, I really want to go to Tianjin, I need that job; However, Cha Xiaoqing seemed to have completely disappeared from my world, she never came to this pier again, and the letter was still in its most primitive state, sandwiched in the crack of the yacht door...
After an afternoon of sitting on the dock, smoking half a pack of cigarettes, time was wasted. It wasn't until the evening was approaching that I went to Tang Ning's bubble tea shop; And she took the time to smile at me in her busy schedule... If you don't think about long-term survival, it's actually quite good to help her take care of this bubble tea shop, but for me, going to Tianjin is still the first choice.
It makes me seem a little absent-minded... I've been wondering in my heart if I can take the initiative to find a way for Cha Xiaoqing... I think that the policeman surnamed Jiang should have Cha Xiaoqing's current contact information... But how do I speak in such a way that it makes sense? ... After all, in his eyes, I am the one who reported Cha Xiaoqing, and now I am looking for him to ask for Cha Xiaoqing's contact information, as long as he is a normal person with the ability to think, he will feel abnormal... Moreover, as a police officer, he is also obliged to keep Cha Xiaoqing's personal information confidential... So it doesn't seem realistic to find a breakthrough from him!
