442: Chapter 435 Sun Jinzhong’s Call_2 442: Chapter 435 Sun Jinzhong’s Call_2 Unfortunately, for his seventy-sothing-year-old mother, the idea of her tempering her “Physical Body” was obviously out of the question without even thinking about it!
The paperwork for replacing the docunts was going smoothly, though it would still take a little ti before he could actually get them in hand.
In the blink of an eye, a week had passed.
Just after nine in the evening, at a barbecue stand only a few hundred ters from the Eastern Pearl Community.
“Brother Qiang, closing up shop so early today?”
“You’re not inviting out for drinks only for your wife to co storming in again and slap around, are you?”
Chen Hai chuckled as he watched Tong Daqiang across from him, busy with a bottle opener and a beer.
Nowadays, he didn’t have many friends.
In Liuyuan County, Tong Daqiang seed to be the only one he could truly call a friend.
After receiving his call inviting him for a couple of drinks, Chen Hai didn’t hesitate and imdiately agreed.
“That woman, her hair’s long but her wisdom’s short, she doesn’t know jack!”
“I’m a grown man, too lazy to bicker with her.”
“Otherwise, if she dares to slap while I’m drunk, I’d definitely let her know why flowers are so red…”
Tong Daqiang hehe’d with a dry laugh.
This guy, despite his big talk, was probably under strict control at ho.
If he wasn’t so henpecked, his wife wouldn’t have had the guts to walk up and slap him without thinking twice the ti he got drunk with Chen Hai.
“By the way, Brother Hai, my wife probably didn’t show you a good face that day?”
“I’ve given her a good scolding several tis over that.”
“These past few days she’s recognized her mistake and keeps nagging about it, wanting to arrange to et with you, to apologize on her behalf!”
“She knew I was eting you early today!”
“When I reported this to her over the phone, she even said, ‘Make sure you eat well, drink well, and have a good ti with Brother Hai.
It’s fine if you don’t co back tonight.”
…
After pausing for a mont, Tong Daqiang spoke again.
Not everything he said was false.
Recently, after telling his wife about so of Chen Hai’s past, she was utterly dumbfounded.
With such a tree trunk of a golden leg, Tong Daqiang’s wife naturally nagged him to cling to it tighter.
Hearing Tong Daqiang’s words, Chen Hai smiled without responding.
He could more or less guess what Tong Daqiang was thinking.
Watching his forr underling now in such dire straits, if there was a chance, he wouldn’t mind lending Tong Daqiang a hand.
He just hadn’t decided exactly how to help yet!
The saying goes, “No pay without work,” so simply handing him a sum of money didn’t seem appropriate.
Provide start-up capital for him to start a business?
With Peach Blossom Wine Industry as a warning from history, Chen Hai was worried that such an incident could happen again.
Just losing so money was nothing to him, but if Tong Daqiang ended up unlucky for several more years after that, it wouldn’t be sothing Chen Hai wanted to see!
“Brother Hai, how long are you planning to stay in the county this ti?” After pouring Chen Hai a beer and the two of them downing it, Tong Daqiang tentatively asked.
“I’m not planning on going anywhere else.
I might stay in the county for ten or eight years.”
After a mont of hesitation, Chen Hai responded.
He hadn’t managed to see his father one last ti before he passed, and that was the greatest pain in his heart.
Jiang ixian, Chen Hai’s mother, now in such a state, Chen Hai would have definitely stayed in Liuyuan County a hundred years ago.
“A golden nest, a silver nest, is not as good as one’s own doghouse; it’s very nice to stay right in the county!”
“That’s right, Brother Hai, you can’t stay idle forever, you need to find sothing to do.”
“If there’s ever a chance to make so good money, don’t forget about your brother here!”
After pouring Chen Hai another glass of wine, Tong Daqiang said with a smile.
This statent of his was purely a probe, perhaps inviting Chen Hai out for a drink was his real purpose.
However, it was a common human sentint, and Chen Hai didn’t feel there was anything wrong with it!
After so thought, he responded with a smile, “As old buddies for so many years, if there’s ever a chance to make so money, I’ll definitely include you!”
“To speak honestly, I’ve been thinking of getting a job to pass the ti.”
“You’re out doing deliveries every day, if you see any security or cleaning jobs, let know.
These jobs are relatively simple, and I should be able to handle them…”
Upon hearing this, Tong Daqiang was dumbstruck.
“No way, Brother Hai?
Are you sure you’re not joking around?” After a good while, he finally managed to squeeze out a few words with a bewildered look on his face.
“Why would I joke about that?
That’s really what I’m thinking!”
Nodding his head, Chen Hai added, “As for my credentials, I’m just a high school graduate.
I said I was going to university, but I hardly attended any classes before I dropped out!”
“Thinking about it, it seems I’ve never really looked for a job and worked in earnest.”
“I guess I wouldn’t be capable of ordinary jobs, but what’s wrong with being a security guard?
Earning money with my own hands is nothing to be ashad of!”
“It won’t be long; this job is also quite relaxed, and it’ll be convenient for to spend more ti with my mom…”
His words seed to reflect his true inner thoughts.
His current cultivation was stuck at a threshold, and re hard practice was of no use; what he needed was ‘enlightennt.’
Observing the flowering and fading of plants, witnessing the ebb and flow of the tides, only after truly imrsing himself in the mortal world might he understand how to beco transcendent.
Chen Hai’s words left Tong Daqiang temporarily lost for words.
Fortunately for him, his phone rang just in ti, allowing him to conveniently switch topics.
“An overseas number, it must be Brother Zhong calling!” After glancing at the phone number, Tong Daqiang turned on the speakerphone and pressed the answer button.
“Brother Qiang, it’s , Sun Jinzhong!” As expected, Sun Jinzhong’s voice ca through the phone.
“What’s up?
Brother Zhong, you’re in Myanmar North, aren’t you enjoying life every day, surrounded by beautiful won each night?
You still rember , your brother?”
“Do you know who’s with ?
Let tell you, it’s your cousin Chen Hai, Brother Hai!
I’ve got the speakerphone on; he’s listening to you right now!”
With a teasing tone, Tong Daqiang laughed as he spoke to Sun Jinzhong.
The friendship between the two of them, spanning decades, having shared wealth and adversity, the nature of their relationship was easy to imagine.
Sun Jinzhong himself, with both parents deceased, had married once, but after Peach Blossom Wine Industry went bankrupt, his marriage ended, and ever since he’s been living as a bachelor.
As for Tong Daqiang, with a wife and children, the relationship between him and Sun Jinzhong had beco a little more distant because of family obligations.
Upon hearing Tong Daqiang ntion that his cousin Chen Hai was there, Sun Jinzhong on the other end of the line suddenly fell silent.
Just as Tong Daqiang was feeling confused and unable to grasp the situation, Sun Jinzhong’s voice once again sounded from the phone.
“Cousin, save …” The voice almost ca out as a roar.
He hadn’t even finished speaking when, with a snap, the call on the other end was abruptly disconnected.
Chen Hai and Tong Daqiang, both clearly having heard Sun Jinzhong’s words, simultaneously showed a change in expression.
PS: The female lead is the female lead; there won’t be a separation over a misunderstanding, so don’t worry…
