Ruoyan's Legend of Heroes: The Knight Envoy

Chapter 98 Shang Qingcong’s Sorrow

The aimless group of people just looked for Yang Yifang, who had no news.

It's another sunny morning. Cheng Ying went out to buy fried dough sticks, and was surprised that there was no stall set up today despite the weather.

Cheng Ying was used to eating fried dough sticks, but now she had no taste in anything she ate in the morning. So I went back empty-handed to eat the millet porridge cooked by Principal Ding.

While everyone was eating listlessly, someone whom no one expected came.

Cao Xue looked up and saw the car, and immediately lowered her face and said: "I said you car, why are you lazy today? We don't have your fried dough sticks to eat in the morning, and I feel so weak now."

Che Zi quickly apologized and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, I'll make it up in two days."

When Cao Xue heard this, she immediately became unhappy and said, "Why, it's only two days later. Don't you think you'll be out tomorrow?"

Che Zi scratched his head and said, "I have something to do and I have to go out for two days."

At this time, Yang Xiaocong looked at Cao Xue with contempt and said to everyone: "You have all seen this time, Aunt Cao Xue is much more gluttonous than me!" Everyone who heard this almost spat out the millet porridge in their mouths. .

Cao Xue chased Yang Xiaocong hard again, and the dejected atmosphere suddenly disappeared.

Shen Guo smiled and said to Chezi, "Chezi, why did you come to see us so early in the morning?"

The car stopped and he said: "That's right, I want to go somewhere, it's a bit far. If there is any news about Yang Yifang in the past two days, I'm afraid I won't be able to go with you."

Shen Guo said: "It's okay, it's okay, there are so many of us, you can just go about your business."

The car said: "Then I'll tell you as soon as I get back." Then he left.

As soon as he reached the door, someone stopped him from behind.

When Che looked up and saw Cheng Ying, he felt a little nervous. He didn't know why. Cheng Ying looked unattractive and rarely spoke. But Che always felt that this girl was different. Every time he saw her, there was something special about her. The feeling of not being able to hide my worries.

Now when I saw it was Cheng Ying, it seemed that she had done something wrong and something was about to be exposed. She said solemnly: "What do you want me to do?"

Cheng Ying stared at the car and said, "Where are you going and are you coming back?"

The car said unconsciously: "I have my eye on a coal mine and I want to take a look today."

Cheng Ying said awkwardly: "Do you have that much money to buy a coal mine?"

The car still said frankly and leniently: "No, but the boss of the coal mine said that he could sell part of it."

Cheng Ying continued: "That's okay."

The car nodded. Cheng Ying thought for a moment and said, "Wait a moment." Then she entered the house.

The car suddenly felt relieved. But he immediately thought to himself: Why am I talking so much to Cheng Ying? She is not someone like me. The less people know about me, the better, because then Le Xinyi will not be able to find herself.

Just as he was thinking about it, Cheng Ying and Shen Guo came out.

Shen Guo said: "Car, can you take us with you? We also have some experience. Besides, we have no clue about finding anyone right now and want to go out and try our luck."

The car has been beeping for a long time and there is no result. In fact, if I didn't want Le Xinyi to know, I really wanted to go together, because Shen Guo had a car.

Although the place is flat, the shuttle bus is still far away.

At this time, Cheng Ying said: "Is there any difficulty?"

"No, let's go together." He regretted it before he finished speaking, but looking at Cheng Ying, he didn't dare to regret it.

Chezi had no choice but to say, "Don't tell anyone where you are going today, especially Le Xinyi, okay?" Shen Guo was stunned after hearing this.

Cheng Ying said: "As long as you don't do bad things." The car immediately said okay.

Shen went over to call Cao Xue and Yang Xiaocong. The two guys were still making trouble. Yang Xiaocong was pinned down on the bed by Cao Xue and tickled.

Yang Xiaocong laughed non-stop and begged for mercy: "I am greedy, I am greedier than Aunt Cao Xue..."

Shen Guo looked at them and smiled: "Stop playing around, they are so old. We are going on a long trip today."

Cao Xue was originally angry after hearing Shen Guo's words, but when she heard about it, she immediately became energetic. Although it had only been a few days since she had left Sanbei City, Cao Xue was already panicking. Now Shen Guo said he was going on a long trip and packed his things immediately.

Shen Guo left a note for Principal Ding. Principal Ding has something to do at school these days and leaves early every morning.

The car outside was begging for mercy, telling Cheng Ying not to tell anyone.

Cheng Ying agreed, because no matter how Cheng Ying looked at it, the car didn't look like a bad guy.

The place the car is going to is Inner Mongolia. The prairie is really flat. Although there are no roads, the car driving on it feels like a flea jumping on the human body.

The grassland is endless, but the car still knows the way.

About seven hours later, the car stopped in a patch of grass.

Cao Xue looked at the desolate place without anyone, hugged her chest and said, "Che, what the hell kind of place is this? Are you going to sell us?"

Just as he was talking, an old man appeared and said with a laugh: "Why do I buy you? To eat. It seems that you are not a working person."

As soon as the car saw this old man, he immediately said respectfully: "Boss Xiang."

The old man known as Boss Xiang was obviously very happy when he saw the car and said: "Shang Qingzong, I thought you wouldn't arrive until midnight, but I didn't expect you to come so soon. Who are these people? Why don't you introduce them to me?" Introduce." This boss Hibiki is obviously very open-minded and easy-going.

The car immediately said: "A few of my friends, they are here to find someone. If we have a car, we will come together." He introduced everyone to each other.

Judging from the bold and easy-going character of this boss Hibiki, everyone is familiar with these two sentences.

Cao Xue looked left and right and asked, "Boss Xiang, where did you come out just now?"

Boss Xiang was dumbfounded by the question, but he immediately smiled and said, "Just walk a few meters forward and you'll see it."

Cao Xue and others walked a few meters to the place pointed by Boss Xiang and saw a trench that was five or six meters deep and more than three meters wide. There were about a dozen workers digging.

Looking at a dozen dark workers, Cao Xue asked: "Boss Xiang, what are they digging for?"

Boss Xiang laughed and said: "You are from a big place, probably from the southeast coast. They are digging coal, have you never seen them?"

"I've seen coal digging before. Don't they all dig a hole and pull the coal out of it?" Cao Xue said.

Boss Xiang said: "That's underground coal, I'm open-pit coal, how about we do it better?"

"Isn't there still soil on the open-pit coal? It's also underground." Cao Xue asked, still confused.

Boss Xiang said: "Now I rely entirely on manual digging to dig out the outside of the coal mine. When the price of coal mines increases one day, I will call an excavator to remove the two meters of soil spores above. Isn't it open to the sky? ?"

Shen Guo was very moved after hearing this and asked, "Boss Xiang, how big is the outer area of ​​your coal mine?"

Boss Xiang pointed to a circle in the distance and said, "Have you seen this circle with small colorful flags floating in the air?"

Shen Guo looked over from a distance and saw that there were really small colorful flags forming a big circle.

Even Shen Guo had never imagined that a coal mine could be so big.

Yang Xiaocong also looked around and said, "Boss Daxiang, I can't see clearly."

Boss Xiang said: "You are too young, of course you can't see this far." After that, he picked up Yang Xiaocong and let Yang Xiaocong ride on his shoulders and said, "Did you see it?"

Yang Xiaocong said: "I saw it, but it was very blurry."

Boss Xiang said, "Why do you have such bad eyesight as a kid?" He straightened up and said, "Can you see clearly?"

Yang Xiaocong's stomach rumbled and he said, "I can't see clearly, I'm dizzy."

Boss Xiang knew as soon as he heard Yang Xiaocong's stomach growling that he must be hungry. It was already this late and he definitely hadn't eaten at noon, so he said, "You must be hungry. How about we eat something first and then watch?"

As soon as Yang Xiaocong heard about eating, he was so happy.

At this time, Cao Xue's stomach growled and her face turned red. Shen Guo looked at it and smiled.

Cao Xue said: "If you're not hungry, just have some millet porridge in the morning."

Shen Guo originally laughed at Cao Xue like a child, but when Cao Xue said this, his stomach rumbled.

Cao Xue stuck out her tongue at Shen Guo. Boss Xiang said at this time: "We are like iron rice and steel. If we don't eat even one meal, we will be hungry. Come on, kid, let's go eat mutton." As he said this, he carried Yang Xiaocong and walked toward an earthen house in the ditch.

When I arrived in front of the earthen house, I saw a man taking a test on the whole sheep. Boss Xiang said: "Boss, let us eat this sheep first, and then you can kill another one."

The boy said reluctantly: "Why, this is ours, everyone has been waiting all afternoon."

Boss Xiang said: "Whatever belongs to you belongs to me. They have an hour to go after get off work. You hurry up and there's still time."

The boy didn't give his boss face and said, "I won't go."

Boss Xiang was not angry and said: "You, you, kill two heads today." The boy was still indifferent to his sorrow. Boss Hibiki said as if he had made up his mind, "Three heads."

Before he finished speaking, the boy said, "Okay." He ran away quickly.

Boss Xiang pointed at him and said loudly: "You bastard, you stewed me on purpose."

I saw the man exaggerating loudly: "Brothers, work hard, Boss Xiang will kill three sheep."

"Okay!" The sound of more than a dozen people came from the ditch.

Boss Xiang said angrily: "I'll fight you little bastards to death."

After saying that, he sat down with Shen Guo and others, served the roasted whole lamb, and poured kumiss for everyone. This drink lasted most of the night.

Everyone was almost done drinking. Even Yang Xiaocong secretly took a sip of wine and slept like a dead pig...

The sun was shining brightly the next day, and no one had gotten up yet.

Boss Xiang shouted outside: "Little bastard, you blackmailed three of my sheep yesterday. It turns out you were going to take them home."

The man from yesterday said with a smile: "Boss Hibiki, I can't finish the mutton, I think it will go bad, so I thought, my children and mother-in-law like to eat it, so why don't I waste it?"

After hearing the sound, the boss picked up a piece of coal and threw it at it. But that guy has already run far away.

A voice came from afar: "I would like to thank Boss Xiang on behalf of my mother-in-law and children."

The angry expression on Boss Hibiki's face just now disappeared, replaced by the amiable care of his elders.

Shen Guo was very moved when he saw this scene. Just now, the boss was stingy and the workers were tricky. Now he was a generous boss and the workers were grateful. Shen Guo saw that today's workers were more energetic at work than yesterday.

Everyone ate steamed buns and drank milk tea in the morning, and the car stopped talking.

Boss Xiang glanced at Chezi and said, "Chezi, I think they are all your trusted friends, so I'll tell you straight now."

The car immediately said: "Boss Hibiki, although I have known them for a short time, I can definitely tell them my true feelings."

Boss Xiang said: "Okay, Shang Qingzong, I like you like this. You know what a real friend is and what is not a real friend. But now I, an old man, can't stand up to you, my little friend."

The car didn't ask why and waited for Boss Xiang to continue.

Boss Xiang said: "I really can't bear to sell this coal mine. I have been operating it for ten years. Although I haven't made much money, it's because I don't want to expand the scale. Now the coal industry is in a slump. Although it can be expanded It increases income, but it is too wasteful. If we wait for a good time, we will lose the watermelon."

Shen Guo asked with great interest: "How does Boss Xiang know that the coal industry will definitely be good?"

Boss Xiang said: "Ask Shang Qingzong, he can see it more clearly than me."

Shang Qingzong said unceremoniously: "Reform and opening up have been going on for a few years, and the results are of course very good. But it is also very good on the southeast coast, and it has not affected the whole country. If it affects the whole country, energy should be put on the priority list first. On the agenda, the first energy sources to bear the brunt are coal and iron, and both electricity and iron are predicated on coal. I have seen the total energy used by developing countries abroad. If we can catch up with them, then the price of coal resources will be unlimited. "Yes." Chezi said, with infinite beauty painted on his face.

After hearing this, Shen Guo asked, "Are you so sure? Why are you so interested in coal? You can also look at the other two."

Chezi said shyly: "In coal, it was only because Boss Xiang was willing to sell me part of it that I could get involved. In the other two industries, either the investment is too large or the state restricts private investment. I dare not even think about it. "

Shen Guo nodded after hearing this. Boss Xiang continued: "I originally fell in love with Shang Qingzong. This guy has vision, ideas, far-sightedness, and a down-to-earth person. My own son wants to buy a house. Although he didn't ask me for money, I know it's not easy for this kid in Beijing. He only gets a small salary a month, and they didn't even ask me for money when they got married. I know they are filial and afraid of embarrassing me, but as a father, I also have to consider my son. I originally We plan to sell 20% to Shang Qingzong, which is two hundred thousand yuan. You must have seen that this kid is working hard to make money now."

Shen Guo and others nodded after hearing this. It turned out that Shang Qingzong had already planned.

Boss Xiang said: "But, my son and woman are urging me to sell the coal mine every day and let me go to Beijing for retirement. I have also thought a lot. The children are doing it for my own good. They say they can support themselves now and don't have to wait for me." Money. I know the principle of filial piety but absence of relatives. I want me to live a happy family life for a few years. Not only are my son and daughter now in Beijing, but they are also married and have grandchildren. When I came to the coal mine to celebrate the New Year last year, I also like my two grandsons to the bottom of my heart. Besides, I obviously feel that my physical strength is not as good as in previous years. I am afraid that I will not be able to wait until the coal mine becomes popular. By then, I am afraid that I will neither be able to leave wealth to my children and grandchildren, nor be able to leave wealth to my children and grandchildren. I can’t live a happy family life with my children and grandchildren. So I decided to sell all the coal mines and go to Beijing to be with my son and daughter.”

At this point, Che Zi's expression darkened, and there was a deep helplessness on his face, as he watched the wealth slip away from him.

Boss Xiang also saw it and sighed: "Shang Qingzong, I can't help it. I don't have time to fulfill my promise to you. This coal mine costs one million for half a month. If you can come up with the money, , it's yours. Otherwise, I will sell it to someone else." After saying that, he stood up and walked out, fearing to see Shang Qingnong's eyes.
