Spring Thunder Chapter 0161 Graduation Season
"Our ideal is in the field of hope. The seedlings are growing in the sweat of the farmers. The cattle and sheep are growing up to the sound of the shepherd's flute. The cotton is spun in the west village and the nets are cast in the east port. The seeds are sown in the north and the fields are threshed in the south. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey! Generation after generation, we have worked in this field, dressing it up and putting on makeup for it..."
In the living room of the old house, more than a dozen people were sitting at a table, each holding a cup in their hands and singing loudly.
"We were young students, full of vigor and vitality; we were full of vigor and vitality. We pointed out the mountains and rivers, wrote inspiring words, and regarded the nobles as dirt. Do you remember that we rowed in the middle of the river, and the waves stopped us?"
Qi Ying, majoring in English in the Spanish Department, has a good relationship with Nan Yi even though they are in different classes.
"Nan Yi, you're hiding your true identity well. You wear ragged clothes every day, but you're the richest among us. I didn't expect you to have a house here."
"Sister Qi Ying, you are wrong about me. This is my style. To be honest, I have moved my household registration back to the countryside. I plan to stay in the countryside for the rest of my life.
In 1977, I took the initiative to go to the countryside with the ideal of changing the backward appearance of the countryside, but I found that my knowledge was not enough to make that change, so I took the college entrance examination.
I also found someone to help me with the job assignment, which was like a backdoor. I was going to a less important position. After a few years, I planned to return to the countryside, back to Wenchangwei.
In five, ten years or even longer, we will turn it into a prosperous village, with electricity and telephones in every building, and realize the four modernizations.
You should all understand what I am wearing. This is actually the best clothing a farmer can wear. I wear it like that to remind myself not to forget my original intention.
"Well said. Let's all give a thumbs up to Nan Yi." Xu Feiyang said.
The others actually joined in the fun and applauded Nan Yi.
Nan Yi pressed his hands, "Everyone, please don't do this, please don't do this, please give more enthusiastic applause."
Hahaha!
The whole room burst into laughter.
"Nan Yi, I'll toast to you alone. If it weren't for you, I..." Wu Renpin stood up and raised his glass.
Nan Yi interrupted Wu Renpin and told him not to continue.
"Renpin, you and I are brothers, there is no need to say anything extra. Come, I toast you and wish you a bright future."
The two drank a cup alone, and Nan Yi started to tease again: "How can you be so blind that you don't know how to flatter our Wu Neige in advance."
"It's time to raise a toast, Wu Renpin. Don't forget to support me in the future."
Xu Feiyang also stood up.
Wu Renpin was assigned to the core of the cabinet, Xu Feiyang to the Guangdong Provincial Government, and the other classmates were also good. In ten or fifteen years, each of them should be able to shake the three rivers and roar in the five rivers.
"Let's drink together. Thank you for your care. If it weren't for you taking care of my stall, my wife and children wouldn't be able to settle down in Beijing. Thank you, thank you everyone."
"Am I late?"
Lai Biao walked in from outside with a bundle of Erguotou in his hand.
"It's not too late, it's not too late. There are two stones in the pickle jar. You can take them out and lick them. They can also make two bottles of wine."
"Yi Jiachan, I haven't seen you for a few years. Why are you still like this?"
Lai Biao said as he walked to Nan Yi's side and pushed, grabbing a seat directly.
"Everyone, I'm sorry, I'm late. I'll drink half a bottle as a punishment." Lai Biao was very straightforward. He opened a bottle of Erguotou and gulped down half the bottle.
Then, he wiped his mouth and showed the bottle to everyone.
"Okay, we've seen your sincerity, hurry up and sit down." Nan Yi stood up, pressed Lai Biao down on the stool, and whispered, "Why are you here so late?"
"The plane is late."
Flight delays are common these days, and a delay of just one or two hours is not considered late.
A rehearsal for a farewell banquet lasted until very late.
Fortunately, Xu Qian went back to Malaysia, otherwise it would be difficult for Nan Yi to control the situation.
When the party was over, except for Xu Feiyang, Lai Biao and Nan Yi, all the other male classmates were almost drunk, and the three of them threw the drunk cat into Nan Yi's room.
Although the female classmates drank a lot, none of them were drunk. We escorted them back to the dormitory one by one.
In the end, only Nan Yi and Lai Biao were left walking on South Street.
"Didn't you say you would graduate early? Why did you wait until the last minute to come back?"
"You already know it without me telling you. Why are you asking?"
"Has the job been decided?"
"It's settled. I'm going to Xiangkeng soon, just like you."
"National Bank or Red Letter Group?"
"Red letter."
“Nice unit.”
"It's boring. I still want to start my own business."
"The domestic environment is not suitable for doing business at the moment. The Wenchangwei garment factory can no longer operate. Now we can only make straw sandals."
"Don't try to fool me, kid. How could you not think of a solution?"
"There is a way, but it's tiring. While I'm in Xiangkeng, I plan to do some business in Xiangkeng."
"What business?"
"Real estate. I think the property prices in Hong Kong will plummet in the next two years. I plan to buy at the bottom of the market then."
"Together?"
"Okay, how much can you invest?"
"About fifty million."
"RMB?"
"What are you thinking about, Hong Kong dollar?"
"Okay, then I'll also put in 50 million, and we'll set up a company together."
"No, I just invest money."
Nan Yi nodded, "I understand. I'll have my lawyer find your people to handle the formalities in a few days. You and I are so familiar with each other, I won't charge you according to the industry rules, I will just take 10% of your commission."
"I'll give you 15%, as long as you make sure you make a profit."
"Bullshit, what are you dreaming of? If you want to make a profit, I have to take at least 80%."
Lai Biao asked: "What do you mean? Is it very risky?"
"That's not the case. But who will give you a guarantee when entrusting you with investment? You can only give you a flexible range."
"That's it, Comrade Nan Yi. The organization still trusts you. I'll hand over this important responsibility to you. Don't let the organization down."
"Come on, stop giving me bureaucratic jargon."
"Hahaha, time flies. So many years have passed in a flash. Maybe one day, I should call you Lao Nan."
"Then should I call you a deadbeat?" Nan Yi said playfully.
"Yeah, what, is there a saying?"
"No, no. I just don't think it sounds nice. I'll still call you Lao Biao."
"Love whoever you want."
"Time will never return once it passes, and the past can only be recalled. Recalling our childhood sweethearts, we were together day and night, and the spring breeze has made the flower stamens red again..."
Nan Yi started singing, and Lai Biao followed up, "You've already grown older, and you've changed your mind. It's like time can't be turned back, and I can only lean on you in my dreams... I heard this song in 1973."
“It came out in the 1970s.”
"I know. I have Yuya's tape. Is there any place to eat? I just drank a lot and I'm still hungry."
"Where do you live?"
"friendship."
"Then you can eat directly in your room. Order room service."
"You don't want to sleep with me, do you? I tell you, there's only one bed in my room."
"Take a break, buddy has a place to spend the night."
The two of them went to Lai Biao's room laughing and joking, and drank some resurrection wine. When they were almost done, Nan Yi went to Scarlett's room.
In the next few days, there were parties almost every day. Teachers, classmates, and people from the same grade but different departments and classes, anyone who looked familiar would be invited over for a drink.
Nan Yi was completely confused. Was his popularity really that good?
For some unknown reason, Nan Yi also had a drink with a graduate student named Lin who came from Taicun.
It's a mess, everything is a mess!
While Nan Yi was maintaining relationships with his classmates, there was one person who was very depressed. That person was Zhou Maode.
In this era, staying in school is the first choice for many graduating college students. However, it is a very difficult thing to do as the number of places is limited and one has to fight hard for them.
Zhou Maode clearly didn't show any intention of staying in school, but he was kept there anyway.
When he received the notification from Ren Xia, he was completely stunned.
Of course, it was Nan Yi who was the bad guy. In order to keep Zhou Maode in school, he spent a lot of energy and money.
Humph, if you want to make a breakthrough, I will first put you in an ivory tower and then slowly control you.
If Zhou Maode was assigned to a job, there would be endless possibilities. Who knows where he would be in a few years. But if he is locked up in school, it would be difficult for him to take off.
Moreover, Nan Yi will not let Zhou Maode sit idle. He will press on step by step and dig traps one by one, forcing Zhou Maode to resign and go into business, and then make Zhou Maode regret that he should have gone into business earlier.
Zhou Maode’s business will be successful, it will definitely be very successful. Even if he doesn’t know how to do business, Nan Yi will put the business in his arms.
To destroy a person, you have to make him crazy.
Money is the poor man’s courage. If Zhou Maode is not allowed to become rich and courageous, he will not kill himself.
…
Nan Yi had to rush to various events until the day of taking graduation photos.
The picture is frozen, and dozens of young people remain on a small piece of photo paper. After tomorrow, they will go their separate ways. Maybe they will see each other again the next moment, or maybe this separation will be for a lifetime.
Some will become family members, some will become regular visitors, and some may just be passing visitors.
Nan Yi stroked the photo, wrapped it in a piece of silk cloth, put it in a storage box, and solemnly placed it at the bottom of the drawer.
Another period of his college life came to an end today, and another piece of peaceful land slowly left him.
