"It seems to be called Jinglan Technology." Wang Kai took a sip of wine and asked casually, "Why are you asking for such details? You are still worried about being robbed. Your kid is penniless now. Don't worry, no one will miss you. .”

After Wang Kai and Gu Zhuoyi looked at each other and smiled, Ye Fang didn't care and at the same time told Gu Zhuoyi his phone number. Gu Zhuoyi screamed when she saw the mobile phone number and asked Ye Fang where she got the number. Ye Fang made up a random reason and said he got it in a lottery from the mobile company.

"I think you're a little weird today. A year ago, I asked you to get a mobile phone for easy contact, but you thought it was expensive. Why did you think of getting a mobile phone today, and you got such an expensive mobile phone and such awesomeness? mobile phone number." Wang Kai joked.

Ye Fang thought for a while and said with a smile, "This is called risking one's life and spending every last penny. Starting from tomorrow, I will work hard to make money! Come on, cheers!"

"Okay! This is my good brother!" Wang Kai shouted and drank a glass of wine.

Gu Zhuoyi stood aside very obediently and poured wine for Ye Fang and Wang Kai. Gu Zhuoyi was already a senior and had started preparing for internship after the National Day. As a college student from a prestigious university, many large companies have already sent invitations to Gu Zhuoyi, but Gu Zhuoyi has not yet thought about whether she will work in a state-owned enterprise or a private enterprise in the future. Thinking of entering the society after the holiday, Gu Zhuoyi is still not used to it, so she feels more relaxed now that she is with Ye Fang and Wang Kai.

Wang Kai, who drank to the end, took out an envelope and put it in front of Ye Mian and said, "This is 1 yuan, you can spend it first."

"I don't need it, I have money, it's enough." Ye Fang pushed the envelope back to Wang Kai.

"I don't know if you have money yet. Didn't you spend all your savings on grandma's medical treatment? Grandma Xu saved that little money to buy a cemetery and other miscellaneous expenses. It's strange that you still have money. What about you? You just bought a mobile phone, I don’t believe you can still spend 100 yuan in your pocket." Wang Kai said.

The change in Ye Fang's pocket now is indeed only a few dozen yuan, not 100 yuan, but there is a huge amount of 500 million yuan in his bank card.

"Wang Kai tells you to take it, take it. This courtyard is our common home. When I go to work, I can make money to support my family," Gu Zhuoyi said.

"Keep your money to help you find a wife. I won't starve to death, so don't worry." Ye Fang said firmly.

"This small supermarket is not making money now. I really don't know where you get your confidence. Okay, I will keep the money. Just let me know when you are short of money." Wang Kai put his arm around Ye Fang's shoulders and said.

"Okay, if I really don't have any money, I will definitely ask you for it." Ye Fang raised his glass and touched it with Wang Kai and took a big gulp. Then he stood up and waved his hands and said, "No, I drank too much. I'm going to bed."

Gu Zhuoyi looked at Ye Fang's staggering figure and said, "Brother Kai, I will go back to school tomorrow. Please take care of him more. I always feel that something is wrong with him today."

Wang Kai sighed softly and said, "Ye Fang has been an orphan since he was a child. He finally had a grandma, but she passed away. He didn't say it, but he must be very sad in his heart. Don't worry, as long as I don't have a case on my hands, I will definitely come back to accompany him every day. It will be fine after this period of time."

"Sometimes I think about Ye Fang's fate. He was an orphan since he was a child, he finally went to college, and finally spent several years in prison. After he came out, he couldn't find a job. I thought I could still make some money from this supermarket, but now... It looks like it's about to close. Now Grandma Xu is... Thinking about it, I'm really worried about him. If it had been the other way around, I might have collapsed a long time ago." Gu Zhuoyi and Wang Kai whispered.

Wang Kai shook his head, but said nothing. He filled a glass of wine and drank it directly.

At this time, Ye Fang had fallen on the bed and fell asleep, with a satisfied smile on his lips. No one knew what this smile meant, maybe only he himself knew.

The next day, it was after nine o'clock when Ye Fang got up. Gu Zhuoyi left a note for Ye Fang and went to school, and Wang Kai went to work. Ye Fang stood up, changed his clothes, washed his face, raised his head and looked at himself in the mirror, and said loudly, "Ye Fang, starting from today, your era begins!"

After speaking, Ye Fang threw the towel into the washbasin, walked out of the courtyard with his head held high, and went to the breakfast stall in the alley. He took out the last bit of stubbornness in his pocket and bought two fried dough sticks and a bowl of soy milk.

After breakfast, his phone rang, and Ye Fang answered the call. It turned out that Zhang Yunshan had sent his car to pick him up. When Ye Fang came out of the alley, he saw a black Audi car parked on the side of the road. Zhang Yunshan's driver was named Huo. He saw a young man in ordinary clothes walking straight towards the car. He quickly stepped forward and asked, "Is this Ye Fang?" Mr. Fang?"

"I am." Ye Fang said.

"Hello, I am Xiao Huo, Zhang Xing's driver. Please get in the car." Although the driver Xiao Huo did not see Ye Fang as a wealthy person, after all, he was a distinguished guest who was personally assigned by the bank president to pick up, so he did not Dare to neglect.

After Ye Fang sat down, Xiao Huo started the car and drove straight to the bank.

This was Ye Fang's first time riding in such a good car, and his buttocks were carefully feeling the softness of the sofa and the unique aroma inside the car. The driver, Xiao Huo, kept looking at Ye Fang through the rearview mirror. He was dressed in extremely plain clothes. Although he was a bit too young, his brows showed a confident air, which gave him a weather-beaten look.

"Mr. Ye, what's your business?" Xiao Huo asked casually.

"Supermarket." Ye Fang lightly spit out two words.

"That must be a big supermarket. Do you live in the alley?" Xiao Huo asked.

"Yes, a courtyard in an alley." Ye Fang replied.

In 1998, most of the courtyard houses in Beijing, especially in the old city, were crowded with many people living together. At that time, there were relatively few courtyard houses with real private property rights, and on the other hand, prices had not yet reached sky-high prices. A courtyard house with more than [-] square meters would A good location can cost hundreds of thousands, but a bad location may not be worth tens of thousands.

If calculated in terms of value, the courtyard house where Ye Fang lives is worth 8 to [-] yuan. From this point of view, Ye Fang is not really a rich man.

So when Xiao Huo heard that Ye Fang lived in a courtyard in a hutong, he was confused. He was not sure what Ye Fang's identity was. In my impression, the big customers that Xiao Huo receives all live in well-known communities or courtyards. They are all courtyards on the main streets. They are all worth hundreds of thousands or even millions of yards.

But Xiao Huo has never seen someone in Ye Fang's situation. Xiao Huo knows that his boss Zhang Yunshan is a man who is blind to money and will never let him come to pick up an ordinary customer without purpose.

After asking around for a few times, Xiao Huo didn't ask any more questions. He couldn't get out much useful information. Soon the car stopped at the door of the bank. Xiao Huo took Ye Fang to Zhang Yunshan's office and left.
