In the drizzle, the train traveled smoothly through the fields.
The first-class cabins all have large leather seats with a lot of space between them.
This train started from the East China Sea and ended at Dongcheng, the capital of Beijiang Province, the northernmost of the four provinces in the Northern Territory. It was also the provincial capital where Lu Ming once studied in college.
In the first-class compartment, there were some businessmen who were going to the Northern Territory for business or business.
Lu Ming could even hear the familiar accent, but he could only sigh in his heart.
Sitting next to Lu Ming was a sloppy Western uncle who looked very artistic. Now, he was doing magic tricks for a fat rich woman across the tea table, making the rich woman laugh from time to time.
Lu Ming frowned, this sloppy uncle was Mrs. Sherlock's cousin Pirlo.
Yesterday, the government received a real-name report that Pirlo was suspected of small-amount fraud.
After a summary court procedure, in addition to returning the stolen money, Pirlo was sentenced to a 500-hour social service order.
And because Pirlo graduated from a formal normal university, he was recommended to the education center.
It just so happens that a public welfare organization is building a public welfare primary school in a county among the five provinces in Jiangnan. It has applied for two teachers to do preliminary work and train local teachers. Although the public welfare organization will pay a certain fee for the education center, for the teachers, this is It was hard work, so Pirlo was recommended to this charity organization.
In this way, together with another female teacher named Zhang, Pirlo also became one of Lu Ming's companions.
Before setting off this morning, Sherlock repeatedly called Lu Ming to say thank you.
Sucking the straw slowly and looking at Pirlo, Lu Ming smiled. In fact, this guy solved a problem for himself. Otherwise, it would be difficult to find teachers who are willing to go to the countryside of Jiangnan provinces to do charity. .
Let’s talk about Teacher Zhang, a beautiful lady in her twenties, who just graduated from a secondary normal school. She seems to hope to enter Fernando College, but she needs a resume of charity work. If she has taught in remote provinces, she can In the overall evaluation of Fernando College, the score will be very high. It only took her two days to go to the education center to register as a volunteer teacher.
So, these two supporting teachers were really lucky. They were 50% operational and 50% lucky.
The rich woman’s laughter became louder and louder, which had attracted the eyes of many tourists.
"Pirlo, keep your voice down!" Lu Ming coughed nearby.
"What are you doing?!" The rich woman immediately glared at Lu Ming.
"Baby, this is my boss, my boss!" Pirlo nodded and bowed to Lu Ming, and the artistic uncle's temperament disappeared immediately.
The rich woman gritted her teeth and said, "I will give you double the amount he charges you. Come to my company!"
Pirlo sighed deeply, "Baby, I also want to go to your company, but I am a knight, a gentleman, and I must be loyal to my boss, my employer. This is me The rules that I must abide by are what my father taught me when I was very young, and they are the character that flows in my blood!”
"Go away, pretend to be a grandson!" The rich woman suddenly changed her face, "Do you think I don't know who you are?"
Pirlo was stunned, his face turning blue and white, "You, why are you swearing?!"
"You're like a fool, I think you can make people happy, so I'll give you some face, but you still don't want it!" The rich woman picked up the drink on the table and threw it on Pirlo's face.
"A gentleman speaks, but a gentleman doesn't!" Pirlo was splashed all over his head and face, and he got up in embarrassment to wipe it off.
Obviously, he has no experience at all in quarreling with a shrew, especially a shrew with a lot of money.
Lu Ming turned his head and could only pretend that he didn't know him. It was too embarrassing.
Over there, Teacher Zhang looked at this scene with even more disgust.
"Why are you laughing?!" The rich woman glared at Lu Ming.
Lu Ming was too lazy to pay attention to her, picked up the newspaper, read it, and said calmly: "What you are doing now has violated the "Train Safety Law" of the 1920s. This law has not been abolished. You may be sentenced to Those who go to jail! Even according to the current regulations... forget it..."
It's a very simple legal issue, I really don't want to talk about it. It seems good to have an apprentice by your side at all times.
The rich woman looked at Lu Ming carefully, then stopped talking.
Obviously he is also a well-informed person, otherwise, he would not be able to see through Pirlo.
Pirlo cursed in his heart. If he had been in the past, he would have started to threaten this shrew, but he glanced at Lu Ming, gritted his teeth, sat down, and turned to look at the scenery outside the window.
The train clanked, and the original quietness returned to the first-class compartment.
……
Nothing has changed in Sansha Town, but a mud house at the head of the village has a sign saying "Sansha Primary School".
Looking at this earthen hut, Pirlo felt like crying but Miss Zhang even frowned.
To celebrate the arrival of the two teachers, the mayor Liu Sili chopped several kilograms of meat from the market and delivered it to Boss Lu's house early in the morning. Mrs. Wei made two large pots of dumplings.
Liu Sili's family also came to the Lu family. He, his wife, a daughter, and his father Liu Jingtang made the family four.
Liu Sili actually has one son and three daughters. The eldest daughter married in the county seat, the second daughter married in Linxian County, and the son attended middle school in the county seat.
The younger daughter who came here is thirteen or fourteen years old. She has been learning to read and write from her grandfather. She has already made a promise and will get married next year.
Lu Ming called the foreman Zhang Agou and his wife again.
Including Heitou, Uncle Sun, etc., there were more than a dozen people, and the courtyard was full.
The dumplings steamed in a big pot are fragrant. Mrs. Wei's hands are very skillful. The dumplings really have eighteen pleats, which are small and beautiful.
According to the custom here, there is a table for men, and a table for women and children. However, Teacher Zhang is an exception and is allowed to sit at the men's table. After all, she is one of the main guests.
Pirlo became interested in the dark-skinned but powerful-looking Zhang Agou. He changed seats to sit next to Zhang Agou and squeezed Zhang Agou's muscles with a salivating look on his face.
It should be said that Zhang Agou took a special shower today and changed into the cleanest cloth clothes and trousers. Although the clothes were patched a lot, they were clean. If he had the sooty-spot image before, Pirlo would have covered him up. The nose went away.
Lu Ming was helpless. Pirlo seemed to like men, so he remained unmarried. However, in this day and age, it was impossible for a man to announce that he was gay, otherwise he would be drowned in saliva.
"Pirlo, Teacher Zhang, you two will stay here temporarily. There are two rooms in the west wing. Each of you will temporarily live in the dormitory. The conditions here are not very good. Thank you for your hard work, Teacher Zhang."
Lu Ming picked up the bowl; the yellow drink was poured into it, "Here, let me toast you. You are so upright and honest. You have worked hard to teach in this poor place!"
Pirlo was not as enthusiastic as Agou. He hurriedly raised the home-brewed liquor poured into the bowl and said, "Boss, you are so polite!" He knew exactly who this boss was, so The fictitious cousin-in-law warned again and again.
Teacher Zhang had just entered the society and had a hard time getting into Fernando College. She was from a poor family, so naturally she didn’t know who Lu Ming was. She just thought he was a coal boss who came here to dig coal, and he was doing charity to gain fame and bribe him. The villagers only have a common heart, and they don’t want to be polite to such people. “I don’t know how to drink, and this drink doesn’t look hygienic.”
The laughter on the table became quieter.
Lu Ming smiled and said: "No, it's our Donghai drink. This should be Grandfather's and Grandson's orange juice. It's all made from cans. It's very hygienic. It's just poured into a bowl. How about you drink it from a can?"
"Grandfather and grandson water? Authentic grandchild and grandson water?" Teacher Zhang was startled. In Donghai, she had just graduated and had not found a job yet. She had always been very frugal and occasionally bought some drinks, but she was not able to drink freely every day. Standing stage.
Lu Ming smiled: "Yes!"
Sister-in-law Wei is very discerning and has already opened a can of drink and brought it to Teacher Zhang.
She is said to be Wei's wife, but she actually looks like she is in her early twenties. The wife of Wei San was actually very pretty.
Teacher Zhang took it and looked at Lu Ming, suddenly feeling the benefits of following the wealthy coal boss.
In this remote place, you can still drink the authentic Donghai Ancestor Water, and the dormitories are arranged. Although the house is not big, it is still a wing, but the inside and outside are very clean and elegant, and there are all the necessary things, even the table. There is also a radio on the floor, which is much better than I thought.
After thinking about this, I remembered that I had sat in a first-class seat that I had never sat in before. Come to think of it, the money was not provided by the public welfare organization. Public welfare organizations are very strict in reimbursing accounts and announcing it to the society. How could they give it to the public? Book a first class seat.
"Mr. Lu, thank you!" Teacher Zhang picked up the can with both hands, but seeing that Lu Ming was a bowl, he felt that this was not appropriate, so he put down the can and picked up the original bowl.
Everyone started laughing again.
The dumplings were very fragrant. Lu Ming ate a few and looked at Liu Jingtang next to him, "Uncle Liu, are you okay? What do you want to say to me?"
Liu Jingtang smiled bitterly: "I can't hide anything from Mr. Lu. I originally wanted to wait until you finished eating, but here you are, and you haven't rested yet."
Lu Ming smiled: "Tell me, what is it? About Hei Laoliu?"
After hesitating for a moment, Liu Jingtang sighed: "No, it's my old friend, Boss Guo of Jingyang Mine. He found out that I followed a boss from Donghai. He called me yesterday and hesitated for a long time. , I was embarrassed to say it, but when I asked, it was him. He wanted to find out about you from me, to see if you had sufficient funds, and to see if you were interested in his mine. He was willing to transfer the mine to you at a low price, or , you can also invest in it, he still has more than 30 years of mining rights.”
After a pause, Liu Jingtang continued: "Although he is my former employer and an old friend, I still have to say, Mr. Lu, I will help him bring this to you. It is my duty as a friend. ; But I think he wants to transfer the mess to you and leave with a large sum of money. Mr. Lu, I remind you that this is my duty as the shopkeeper to the boss."
Lu Ming smiled: "It depends on the price. If it is reasonable, there is not no room for cooperation."
Liu Jingtang looked up in surprise.
Lu Ming smiled and said: "Just reply to him like this."
Liu Jingtang blinked his little eyes, but he knew that although the boss in front of him was young, he was not easy to fool, and he must have his own plans.
"Okay, I'll hang up the phone with him when I get back."
