Yan Jiayu shouted for nothing. The few people who were whispering in the distance only looked up at the two of them and did not have the intention to come over immediately. Yan Jiayu was about to scream when Wang Guohua grabbed her hand and whispered,""No need!"
Wang Guohua didn't care about the response of the staff. The behavior of the state-owned enterprises was similar to that of the government. When Yan Jiayu was unhappy, perhaps she did not even think about the ordinary people who usually went to the county party committee.
Wang Guohua looked up and saw a middle-aged man smoking at the door. This guy's eyes kept darting around. He didn't look at Wang Guohua anymore after a glance.
"Let's go!" Wang Guohua did not let go of Yan Jiayu, and he did not notice the look on Yan Jiayu's face. Yes, Yan Jia Yu didn't expect this guy to grab her hand and not let go. How long has it been since this kind of hand-holding happened? Yan Jiayu couldn't remember at all! Her heart was beating fast, her ears were burning, and she had to look around to see if there were any familiar faces passing by.
When the man squatting at the door saw Wang Guohua and Yan Jiayu walking over, he revealed a hint of disdain. He stood up calmly and was about to open his mouth when Wang Guohua spoke first,"I want to buy a mobile phone. It's okay if it's a little expensive. I won't consider the one that can be used as a brick.”
The man was stunned when he heard that. Then, he gave her a thumbs up and said,"Brother, so you're an expert! However, that thing is only available in Guangdong now. You shouldn't expect it to be available here without three to five years.”
Wang Guohua actually didn't have much hope. It was 1994. You couldn't expect an inland province to be too advanced in communications, right?
"You can get 9900, right? Name your price!" In 1994, Wang Guohua, who was struggling in Shanghai, had heard of such a thing. Even if he had money, he couldn't buy a relatively small mobile phone 9900. The reason was very simple. Most of the resources had to satisfy the needs of the leaders first, and the remaining small portion was held in the hands of the employees as a means of profit. In fact, Wang Guohua did not know that in 1993, in some provinces, a mobile phone that sold for 20,000 yuan could be sold for more than 40,000 yuan. Of course, this was not a normal transaction.
"This number!" The middle-aged man stretched out three fingers and then a palm. Wang Guohua glanced at it and was too lazy to bargain. He nodded and said,"Alright, that's it. I want it immediately.”
"Follow me!" The middle-aged man greeted the staff who were chatting inside. He made a gesture and led the way. They walked into a telephone shop next door. Wang Guohua let go of his hand. Yan Jiayu's reluctant expression was ignored. After a while, one of the employees who had been chatting came in with a paper bag.
Wang Guohua didn't waste any time. He opened the big envelope in his hand, took out four old men's heads, and counted 50 of them. The transaction process was surprisingly simple. When Yan Jiayu took the receipt, she glanced at it and asked in a low voice,"Why did the receipt say 25,000 yuan?”
The middle-aged man's expression changed slightly. Wang Guohua glared at Yan Jiayu and said,"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask!"
Yan Jiayu raised her head and glared back unhappily. Unexpectedly, Wang Guohua's gaze was unusually stern. Yan Jiayu lowered her head for no reason and felt very wronged. She muttered unwillingly,"I was just asking casually."
"Young man, you're awesome!" The middle-aged man chuckled and gave him a thumbs up. After the money and goods were settled, Wang Guohua took the mobile phone and walked out. When he saw Yan Jiayu still standing there with her head lowered, he smiled and went forward to grab her hand."You're already so old, yet you're acting like a little girl? Be careful not to spank your butt."
The middle-aged boss heard it clearly and immediately revealed a look of admiration. He almost shouted," The torrential river is endless…"”It couldn't be helped. Although Yan Jia Yu wasn't considered a stunning beauty, her figure was really impeccable.
After escaping back into the car, Yan Jia Yu whispered with a charming face,"Little brat, what nonsense were you spouting just now? I'm your sister!"
Wang Guohua saw her insincere expression and sighed seriously,""My heart was originally set on the bright moon, but the bright moon shines on the ditch!”After saying that, she started the car and drove forward. Yan Jiayu sat in the front passenger seat and was completely silent. She lowered her head and was thinking about something. The corner of her eye was sneaky, and the obvious rise and fall of her chest betrayed her.
Yan Jiayu's heart raced again. Wang Guohua's domineering behavior in the shop did not make Yan Jiayu feel disgusted. Instead, she felt that it was a display of masculinity. In fact, when a man showed his absolute strength, he would be more domineering to the women around him. Sometimes, it would attract the women to attach themselves to him. Even Yan Jiayu, who was usually very powerful in the county committee, had undoubtedly weakened when she encountered Wang Guohua, who had displayed his strength.
At this moment, Yan Jia Yu's heart was filled with contradictions. The man who was jokingly called a little devil was originally just a small figure. The aftereffect of his sudden appearance was that Yan Jia Yu was seriously not confident. However, the emotions that he once thought were dead were ignited. He originally thought that he had an advantage, but now everything was reversed. Realizing that the two of them had only lived together for a short period of time, Yan Jia Yu was lost, entangled, unwilling, and so on. All kinds of emotions spread in her heart, one after another.
The beep suddenly rang, interrupting Yan Jiayu's dilemma. Yan Jiayu looked a little flustered as she took off the digital phone hanging on her waist. She looked at the number and instinctively said,"Find a public phone. My mother is calling me.”
Wang Guohua calmly pointed at the newly bought motorola 9900 in front of him. Yan Jiayu hesitated for a moment before reaching out to take it. This mobile phone was much smaller and cuter than a big brother. Yan Jiayu liked it from the bottom of her heart and hoped to have one. Putting aside the price, the high phone bill alone was not something she could afford. Even though she could go through the reimbursement route, Yan Jia Yu wasn't that vain.
Wang Guohua parked the car by the roadside, lit a cigarette, and waited patiently. Yan Jiayu kept looking up at Wang Guohua while she was on the phone. Wang Guohua was indeed a little worried about this woman. In reality, Wang Guohua was a little uneasy about everything after his rebirth. In his previous life, the gaming world was a decadence that saw through the world. It was a reality that he cared about everything but did not have the ability to care about it, forcing him to not care about anything.
God had given him a chance to change, and Wang Guohua didn't want to mess everything up.
Yan Jiayu hoped that Wang Guohua would agree to go to the hospital with her, so that the " impossible " would move towards the " possible " direction.
At this moment, Yan Jia Yu's gaze was slightly absent-minded, but she quickly returned to normal. In his heart, he quickly found an excuse for Wang Guohua. Meeting his family elders and meeting his friends were two different concepts. It was understandable that he did not go with them.
Wang Guohua carried the paper bag with the phone and said to Yan Jiayu before he left,""If you need any help, just call me. Write down the number in the phone book and don't lose it.”
Wang Guohua didn't hear Yan Jiayu's self-lamenting. He strolled around and walked into the largest shopping mall in Liangshui City. The business center in 1994 looked a little old-fashioned. The newly bought mobile phone's lithium battery had a limited talk time, and the charger and backup battery had to be carried with him. Wang Guohua felt that it was very troublesome, but he had no choice but to buy a satchel and put it all in.
These days, satchels weren't popular in Liangshui City. The most popular thing was a briefcase. Each of Nanshan County's leaders had one. Those with secretaries would be carried by their secretaries, while those without secretaries would be carried by themselves.
Wang Guohua's luck wasn't good. He didn't find a bag that caught his eye after walking through two counters. Just as he was about to buy a random one, someone patted him on the shoulder.
"Yeah, I want to buy a satchel, but I don't see anything I like.”Wang Guohua decided to ignore this young man. With his mentality, there was no need to take a little boy seriously. Besides, he had to give Zhong Xiaoya face.
"Thank you, no need to trouble yourself. I just bought a bag casually.”Wang Guohua did not like to owe people favors. He smiled and declined, but the girl behind Zhong Xiaoya looked at him disdainfully and said rudely,""Rare, country bumpkin." Her voice was very low, but it was enough for Wang Guohua to hear her clearly.
Wang Guohua, who had a good attitude, disappointed the girl who had spoken. In fact, Wang Guohua only glanced at her indifferently before looking away expressionlessly.
Ignore! Yes, it was! This was disregard!
Wang Guohua really didn't ignore it on purpose. It was just an instinct. The mentality of a person who had lived two lives was stuck at the age of nearly forty. How could he be angry because of the impoliteness of a girl in her early twenties? Therefore, he could not be calculative with a child! Wang Guohua's understanding was like this, but the two men and one woman's understanding was completely different.
The hot-blooded young men were in the prime of their lives, and they could fight for victory in a moment of passion. Wang Guohua's disregard was a provocation, a form of contempt, and an unforgivable rudeness.
It couldn't be said that these young people had a bad mentality. As people from Liangshui City, they had a psychological advantage. It was natural for them to look down on people from small places. Normally, Wang Guohua, who came from a small place that was looked down upon, should be accepted like this. Who asked him to dress so ordinarily? I can't even look up to you, yes! That was what they thought.
"Hehe, buying a bag, right? Ma, isn't there a new batch of leather satchels on the shelf? Take out a few of the most expensive ones and choose one for this friend. Remember to give him a 30% discount when you settle the bill!”The girl was like a proud hen that had just laid an egg. She raised her chin slightly and spoke, refusing to look Wang Guohua in the eye.
Wearing jeans and a t-shirt, Wang Guohua wore a pair of old-fashioned sandals. It was indeed difficult for his peers to look up to him. In fact, after standing in front of the counter for more than ten minutes, there was no intention of a salesperson to sell it. The bags in the counter were all priced at more than 200 yuan. In this year where the monthly salary was two to three hundred yuan, it was reasonable for Wang Guohua's age to be ignored.
The girl who spoke did not even know Wang Guohua's name. She probably did not know Wang Guohua's name either. Before Zhong Xiaoya could even introduce him, the conflict started. Even if she wanted to introduce him now, Zhong Xiaoya was a little reluctant to do so. Furthermore, Zhong Xiaoya was also blaming Wang Guohua for being ignorant. It wouldn't hurt to flatter my friend a little.
Zhong Xiaoya's mentality was very normal. When she found out that Wang Guohua was in the county committee office, she felt a little unbalanced. Her family was from the county, while Wang Guohua's family was from the countryside. Just like how the people of Liangshui City did not think highly of people from a small place like Nanshan County, Zhong Xiaoya did not think highly of Wang Guohua from the countryside before they reunited.
It was precisely because of this mentality that Zhong Xiaoya chose to remain silent when her friend made things difficult for Wang Guohua.
What did he mean by taking out the most expensive bag? Wang Guohua wasn't stupid, so he understood. Didn't you just want to see me make a fool of myself when I buy it? If it was in his previous life, Wang Guohua would have turned around and left in anger. At that time, Wang Guohua's pride could not be challenged at all. Now, Wang Guohua only smiled at the provocative girl and said,""Thank you!"
"What do you mean?" Zhong Xiaoya and her companions were a little dumbfounded. They looked at Wang Guohua in confusion, asking," Are you stupid? I'm playing with you! Thank you!" Her gaze turned into pity. The pitiful child's miserable state while waiting for the high price made the girl, who was not actually a bad person, feel a little guilty.
The young man with acne all over his face snorted and straightened his back, making the Han display on his waist more eye-catching. The remaining two could not bear to turn their heads away.
The salesperson at the counter was very quick. She took out a few new bags from the shelf and placed them on the table. Before she left, she asked the girl who was making trouble,"This new bag hasn't been priced yet. How much should it be sold for?”
The girl gritted her teeth in embarrassment.""Two hundred, give me the lowest price.”
"Nini is really kind!" The young man with pimples all over his face said sourly. Among the three of them, he seemed to be the only one who still maintained a hostile attitude towards Wang Guohua. It wasn't hard to see that his gaze had been wandering around Zhong Xiaoya's body. Zhong Xiaoya's oblivious look made Wang Guohua, who was a veteran in the martial arts world, sigh inwardly.
In fact, these new satchels were only passable in the eyes of Wang Guohua's previous life's White Bone Demon. Wang Guohua pointed at one of them and smiled.""This is it. Thank you. Please give me the bill.”
Wang Guohua didn't forget to smile at the girl called Nini.""Thank you! Can I look for you when I buy electrical appliances at home?”Wang Guohua's sincerity and magnanimity easily convinced this little girl who had just come out of society. Wang Guohua had a purpose for doing this. This girl undoubtedly had a high status in the business world. It was probably because of her parents. Moreover, judging from the girl's performance later on, she was not the annoying type.
"In your dreams. Do you still want a next time?”The young man with pimples all over his face interjected. Unexpectedly, Nini glared at him unhappily and said,"Do I need you to meddle in my affairs?"
After saying that, Nini smiled at Wang Guohua.""Yes! If you need anything, feel free to come and find me!"
As if she had just done something amazing, the little girl's vanity was easily satisfied. She didn't notice Wang Guohua's smile at all. In fact, Wang Guohua didn't even ask for her name. He was secretly proud that he had divided this small group.
The saleswoman who was issuing the bill said,"Go over there and pay!"”It interrupted everyone's temporary neglect of the price of the bag. The expensive price of 200 yuan once again became the focus of everyone's attention.
Wang Guohua looked very casual. He took out a large envelope from the paper bag and took out a bunch of old men's heads. He took out two of them and put them in his pocket. The result of this action was that five or six pairs of eyes were stunned. Ten thousand yuan was casually put into his pocket. Although it was not a big deal for a 10,000 yuan household in 1994, one had to look at the income of the people around him.
Wang Guohua floated away amidst the broken lenses. After paying, he returned to get his bag. He calmly opened the paper bag he carried with him, took out the envelope and the money in his pocket, and casually stuffed them into his bag. Then, he took out a small motorola 9900. After doing all this, Wang Guohua put on his bag. The gazes around him changed completely.
When he saw the 9900, the young man with a face full of beans instinctively reached out and moved the position of the Han display. It didn't look so eye-catching anymore. The remaining three almost subconsciously stretched out their hands to move their waists. Everyone would rather believe that the small 9900 was a toy, but the bb-phone on the waist of the girl called Nini rang without giving them any face.
The sound of the beep machine was so ear-piercing at this moment!
Wang Guohua's calmness seemed so natural, as if nothing unpleasant had happened before. Wang Guohua looked as sincere as ever. The actions of the young people earlier were suddenly labeled as childish.
"I didn't take it to heart at all!”Yes, everyone, including Zhong Xiaoya, thought the same. Wang Guohua's actions were indeed a little different from the rest. He even seemed a little aloof and arrogant. However, at this moment, everyone thought that this kind of performance was natural. He had the capital! He had the ability to ignore his peers!
The jeans were still the same white ones, the t-shirt was still the same ordinary style, and the sandals were still the same plastic ones! However, at this moment, everyone had a similar definition in their hearts.
"Too low-key!"
"This is the real deal!"
"People with true strength don't need to show off!”
"My mom called me home for dinner.”Nini whispered to Zhong Xiaoya, whose gaze had not left Wang Guohua.
Wang Guohua's ears were very good, so he laughed when he heard it and said,""I'll treat you to lunch. You've helped so much!”
The scene of the four of them bidding farewell at the same time was a little like the scene in the movie [***], where the young man who had a youthful face drooped his head. Only Zhong Xiaoya secretly turned back a few times, but Wang Guohua had already left the counter and disappeared.
Carrying his newly bought bag, Wang Guohua still looked a little rustic. His slightly raised chin showed a kind of calmness and detachment. Walking in the mall, Wang Guohua was just like everyone else. He was neither particularly happy nor particularly unhappy.
Wang Guohua, who had never mistreated himself, walked for five minutes to the best hotel in Liangshui City, Shancheng Hotel. When he handed over his ID card to get a room, the waiter was very careful as if he was a spy. Wang Guohua was already numb to this. He did not show any impatience and kept a smile on his face.
It was never a sin to judge a book by its cover! It could only be considered a bad habit!
As Wang Guohua thought about it, he paid the deposit and took the key. Under the puzzled gaze of the waiter, he walked slowly in the direction of the restaurant. It was getting late and Wang Guohua was hungry. He decided to have a good meal.
Zeng Zeguang, who got off the car behind Yan Youguang, the head of the prefectural party organization, perfunctorily listened to the flattery around him. His eyes wandered around, hoping to find a young figure.
