Chapter 3 Meteor falling from the sky

After smoking a cigarette and venting his mood, Yan Liqiang walked towards the old city in the distance, thinking about his plans for the future as he walked.

He doesn't want to stay in this city anymore.

He quit his job in that company yesterday. This is not entirely because of Lu Jiaying, but because he had this idea long ago. Now that the conditions are ripe, he can break out of the company and work hard for himself.

His department manager in the company suppressed him very much and suppressed him everywhere. He was a person who even Yan Liqiang made a wonderful PPT that wanted to go to the company's OA system and had to cross out Yan Liqiang's name from the author, for fear that the boss would know that the PPT was made by Yan Liqiang.

But even if someone is suppressing him, Yan Liqiang still has a good time in the company with his outstanding abilities.

Especially this year, Yan Liqiang's business has been ranked first in the company for four consecutive quarters, with customers praised it, and customers also wrote a thank-you letter to the company headquarters. Even several bigwigs at the headquarters knew his name. He had completely stood out. That person could no longer suppress it. Yan Liqiang's salary increase and promotion was a foregone conclusion.

But Yan Liqiang still chose to leave because a boss he knew admired his ability and character very much. The boss wanted to invest in a large mobile phone comprehensive store in another city, wanting to let Yan Liqiang manage it, and gave him a lot of shares, which could make him leapt from a worker to a shareholder and partner.

Yan Liqiang didn't want to go there before, and he was a little hesitant because his future in this company was already bright, and his income and treatment would increase several times in a blink of an eye. However, in order to hold Yan Liqiang and show his sincerity, the boss even changed the name of the mobile phone store he wanted to invest in to Liqiang Communications.

Everyone else has achieved this, what else can Yan Liqiang say?

Everything starts again. Yan Liqiang is confident that he will achieve something. The slightest possibility of pretending to be today may become a reality in the future. Even if he can't be a rich second generation, he still has the possibility of being a rich second generation's father. For that slight possibility, Yan Liqiang has to fight hard.

If you don’t struggle, what’s the difference between it and a salted fish? This is the second motto in the life of Yan Liqiang.

Yan Liqiang is actually no longer in pain these days. When he was most painful, he was the days when he found out that Lu Jiaying cheated on him on his back. Such a blow almost made Yan Liqiang unable to recover, and even some extreme thoughts emerged in his mind. But after those days, he found that he really had no need to hurt more people for such a woman who easily betrayed and vain. This was really not worth it, and it would be over.

If Lu Jiaying hadn't done anything too well and the two of them were really undestined to be together, Yan Liqiang wouldn't have done this today. Today's appearance was to teach that vain woman a lesson.

Thinking of the pussy he pretended to be today and the woman's regret now, Yan Liqiang couldn't help laughing. The satisfaction in his heart after the prank succeeded, gradually diluted the depression in his heart.

Yan Liqiang felt that he had been pretending to be a slut for so many years, but today this is definitely the pinnacle of his pretentious career.

He took out the shutdown mobile phone, took out the old mobile phone card, and threw it directly into the stinky ditch on the side of the road. Yan Liqiang installed another mobile phone card, then turned on the computer, and dialed a number.

"Hey, Liqiang, how are your company doing things?" The enthusiastic voice of a middle-aged man with a strong temper came from the other side of the phone.

"Mr. Zhao, it has been handled. I will arrive at Yang Airport City at 4 o'clock tomorrow afternoon!"

"Don't call Mr. Zhao in the future, just call me Brother Huan!" The middle-aged man on the phone spoke very seriously and generously, "I will send a car to the airport to pick you up tomorrow afternoon, and find a place to welcome you in the evening, and introduce a few friends to you. Those friends are very energetic in Yangcheng. They have heard me talk about you and said that there are very few people as loyal as you in this era, and they all want to know you..."

"Okay, thank you Brother Huan!"

"Thank you, thank you, don't be so polite to me in the future. If you hadn't been enthusiastic last time, I almost got cheated by those Korean kids for more than 100 million yuan. It would be fine if I lost this little money. It's just a few houses, but I can't lose my face. My old face is something that Liqiang keeps for me. I just admire Liqiang, a person with character, ability and loyalty. When you come to Yangcheng tomorrow, you don't have to worry about anything. You have found your residence for you and the car is equipped. You don't have to worry about anything when you come. Just concentrate on doing things. I'll leave all the things about that store. I only arrange a financial manager, and you have the final say. The store is just a small business, I'll make my own investment. When you get the store well, you have some experience, I can transfer you to the group company to help me, and the other shareholders of the company won't have any opinions!"

After the call, Yan Liqiang let out a long sigh, and the depression in his heart disappeared a lot. He felt that life was like a seesaw game. Although he was frustrated in love, his career, because of his years of good relationships and hard work, has quietly stepped onto a higher brand new platform at this time.

Even if he didn't pretend to be this pussy today, if Lu Jiaying knew Yan Liqiang's real situation, he would definitely regret his choice. However, Yan Liqiang still chose to pretend to be this pussy, not for anything else, just for one word - good!

He is not the kind of man who cannot live without women. Yan Liqiang can accept Lu Jiaying's departure, but he cannot forgive her betrayal. Naturally, he no longer needs to be sincere to the betrayer.

...

"Sell radios, insoles, needlework..."

After calling Brother Huan, Yan Liqiang had already arrived at a street in the old city. A hawking sound was under the street light next to him, which attracted Yan Liqiang's attention.

It was an old couple who were wearing gray hair and still had a street stall at this time. The couple was dressed cleanly and tidy, and there was a little shabby tricycle parked beside them. The old man shouted in front of the stall, while the old lady was sitting on the tricycle with a few rags and cutting insoles. Their street stall was placed under a street light, and the street light could just illuminate the things on his stall clearly at night.

Seeing the things that two old men were placing on the street stall, Yan Liqiang couldn't help feeling a little sore.

Such stalls may have never seen many young people living in big cities in their lifetime, and they would never have thought that those things could be taken out to set up stalls.

On the green plastic cloth, the old man in the stall put a few items that looked like they were not a good deal - a few old radios with some old paint, a few old tungsten bulbs, a pair of gray old gloves, a box of old screws, a few pairs of insoles, two old nail clippers that were not old, a box containing needles, rubber bands and buttons, a few old mobile phone batteries of unknown models, two plug-ins, and a bunch of old books and other miscellaneous items...

For many people, even if these things are thrown into the garbage dump, no one will pick them up, let alone sell them for money, which is simply funny.

But Yan Liqiang knew that these two old people were not funny. For many elderly people who were older, got off duty, lived in the old city but had no source of life, they were really setting up stalls and were counting on this little thing to exchange for some money.

It was not the first time Yan Liqiang has seen such an elderly person. During the day, the urban management checked it strictly, and these old people dared not come out. Only at night did they come out to set up stalls. Many times, Yan Liqiang saw the old man and the old lady who came out to set up stalls and sold things, which were half a bottle of soy sauce, half a handful of noodles, a few beer bottles, half a half of cold medicine, a pair of shabby chess, etc.... For these old people, this was the only way they could think of to make money with more dignity than begging.

Yan Liqiang didn't think he was so noble, but every time he saw these helpless elderly people who came out to set up stalls at night, Yan Liqiang would buy something from these elderly people, even if he didn't use it.

Yan Liqiang came to the old man's stall, squatted down in front of the old man's stall, and looked at the things on the old man's stall.

The old man looked at Yan Liqiang with a hint of expectation and cramped look, "Young man, look at what you need. These things are cheaper than in the store and can be used..."

Yan Liqiang didn't know what he could buy, but every time at this time, Yan Liqiang's talent for pretending to explode again.

Yan Liqiang flipped through the old books and saw an interesting old book among the old books - "Article of Enhancing the Yi Jin and Washing the Marrow" - an old book. It was an old book published by Zhongzhou Ancient Books Publishing House twenty years ago. The original price was only 26 yuan.

Yan Liqiang, who saw this book, was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that there was such a secret book as Yi Jinjing. He used to think that this was just a fabrication in novels and movies, but he didn't expect that there was actually something in reality. Under the lights on the roadside, he picked up the book and read it slowly. He found that except for a few prefaces and a small amount of text, the rest of the book were all practice pictures in one style.

Looking at the book placed in the pile of old books, Yan Liqiang could not find any other feelings except that he could find a secret to cultivation at the old book stall.

If you care about him, just take some fun. When I get old and have nothing to do, I go to the park every morning to practice according to the things in this book, just treat it as a radio gymnastics, and can also pretend to be a pussy in front of people. Others are dancing square dances, and I am practicing Yijin Jing. The grades are different when I say it.

With such thoughts in his heart, Yan Liqiang shouted in an exaggerated voice, "Ah, I finally found it, I didn't expect to see such things here..." Yan Liqiang's face showed a look of joy. He raised the old book in his hand to the old man who was selling things, "Uncle, how much does this book cost?"

"This... this book costs ten yuan..." After all, it was an old book. The old man seemed to feel that the price of the old book was too high, and he was a little embarrassed.

"Ten yuan, so cheap?" Yan Liqiang looked shocked. He touched his body directly, took out five red money in his pocket, and handed it over, "Uncle, I want this book, 500 yuan..."

"Ah, so much..." The old man was startled and quickly shook his hand at Yan Liqiang, never borrowing money, "Don't have so much, don't have so much..."

Today, I have spent a lot of money to pretend to be that pussy, so at this time, Zhang Tie doesn't care about spending more than 500 yuan. Such money, to say some pretentious things, is spent comfortably. For some people, this amount of money is not enough for them to take care of their health, but for these elderly people, this amount of money may be their monthly living expenses.

"Uncle, you don't know that your book is not an ordinary book, it is very precious..."

"Well, this... I checked it online and it's also selling it online. The full set of new books costs only fifty or sixty yuan. I found this book from the scrap purchase station, so I can't use so much money..." This old man who sells things is not the kind of person who is jealous of money.

"Uncle, you don't know. This book is like wine, stamps, and other things. It depends on the year and version. This book was published early and is very scarce and has special collection value. Maybe this book is more valuable in a few years..."

"Is that true?" The old man was also fooled by Yan Liqiang and doubtful.

"I won't take advantage of you, you'll be 500!" Yan Liqiang said seriously, and he almost believed that tone. After that, he stuffed five red tickets into the old man's hands. Before the old man could say anything, he took the book and left.

The old man who set up a street stall kept watching Yan Liqiang leave with gratitude and complex eyes. After a while, he looked at the five red money he was holding in his hand, sighed, and turned his head to look at his wife, "My wife, there are still many good people in this world. We have met good people today..."

...

There were few pedestrians on the street and the street lights were quite bright. After leaving the old man's stall for more than ten minutes, Yan Liqiang, who was walking casually flipping through the book in his hand, heard someone shouting excitedly in the distance.

"Ah, there are shooting stars, flying towards here..."

Yan Liqiang, who was walking on the sidewalk, stopped and looked towards the sky with some surprise. As soon as he raised his head, he felt that the streets of the space around him suddenly brightened, and everything was shrouded in a circle of white light. Before he could react, a roar sounded beside him, and Yan Liqiang instantly lost all his consciousness...

...

Yan Liqiang disappeared, and a large pit several meters in diameter was left on the sidewalk where he was. A few minutes later, the city's fire trucks, police cars and roared, and a cordon was set up at the scene, and the TV station reporters also came...

...

A week later, another one of the missing persons in the archives of the Municipal Public Security Bureau was added - Yan Liqiang, male, Han nationality. He was born on a certain day of a certain month of a certain year, and reported his disappearance in the city on a certain day of a certain month of a certain year...
