Little Life on An American Ranch Chapter 165

  Chapter 165 Enthusiasm

  Sun Siwei sat down and asked about Jian Heng's affairs in the United States.

"America is actually not as good as some people in China say, nor is it as bad as others say. Wherever you go, you have to talk about opportunities and strength. Whether it is the United States or China, it is the same if you want to get ahead, or you have to be born well. ,Either you work hard the day after tomorrow, oh! The third way is to win the lottery, and the day will be easier if you win 100 million..." Jian Heng and Sun Siwei briefly talked about the situation in the United States.

  There are currently two views on the United States in China. One is that everything is good in the United States, and the light of freedom is a paradise on earth. The other is that there are gunfire all day long and it is not safe at all. It's like living in the United States and living in fear all day long.

In fact, there are two types of law and order in the United States, areas where the rich live and areas where the poor live. The place where the rich live has a relatively high safety factor because they have money. In the United States, having money means being powerful, and being powerful means having power. More police protection, so the wealthy residential area is naturally quite safe.

  If you don't have money, it's just the opposite. In some places, even the police don't want to go, and they are all managed by gangsters. How safe is such a place?

   "Hey, I also want to go abroad, but unfortunately I can only think about it. One is that my English is not good, and the other is that I have no money in my pocket." Sun Siwei joked with a smile.

Jian Heng agreed with his point of view: "In the United States, if you don't have money, it's better not to go. You can live at the bottom of the world everywhere. It doesn't make much sense for people who are not democratic or independent. It's better to be in China, where you can see everything. The same face is comfortable. If you have two or three billion in your pocket and want to enjoy life, you can go to the United States, because there is almost no need to consider the influence of officials on you if you have money. Not only do you not have to worry, officials We may not be sure, but also depends on your face."

  The two were talking about this, the boss came over, followed by a waiter, holding a basin the size of a washbasin in his hand.

   "Do you want a drink?" The boss asked while helping to clear the debris on the table.

   "Come to the bottle of sea blue," Sun Siwei said.

  Jian Heng waved his hand immediately: "I'm driving here."

"Find a replacement driver. It's not like before. It's very convenient. You can't enjoy it in the United States. We do this better than the United States. You can rest assured that you will be fine." Sun Siwei took out his phone and clicked on an app. He gestured to Jian Heng and said, "With the mobile phone in hand, I have everything!"

"Row!"

   Jian Heng's interest came today, and he nodded in response.

  The boss signaled the waiter to put down the basin, and turned on the induction cooker for Jian Heng and the others. The boss turned around and brought them a bottle of sea blue, and then placed two small wine glasses in front of them.

  Sun Siwei said: "Take down the small cup, and the person who pours the cup is upset, so we drink directly from the big glass!"

   Said that Sun Siwei touched the two glasses for drinking tea, scalded them with happy water, and then began to pour the wine. The two cups were almost the same level, one was pushed in front of Jian Heng, and the other was in front of himself.

   "Come on, let's go to meet old classmates!" Sun Siwei picked up the cup.

   "One can't go, what about the little ones?" Jian Heng shook his head immediately and said.

   "That's not what I mean, I can't stand drinking like this, anyway, let's drink slowly! Drink until you're happy, okay?" Sun Siwei took a sip of the wine while talking.

  Seeing his appearance, Jian Heng also smiled and took a sip.

   Putting down the cup, Jian Heng asked Sun Siwei: "Siwei, what company are you doing now?"

"Don't mention it. I'm currently running a business in an advertising company. It's not worth it to be angry all day long. My salary is pitifully low. After I get it, I can't save money for a month without rent and food. Now I want to buy a house. , the parents at home have saved a lifetime of money and can't even make up a down payment, hey! Forget it, let's not mention this shit, how about you, why did you think of starting a ranch?”

"I'm also driving ducks to the shelves." Jian Heng talked about his situation in general. Of course, he won't mention the space, but when he mentioned the car, he didn't mention the bad things about the ranch. He just said that he came from a The benefactor took over the ranch.

  Sun Siwei's eyes widened when he heard this, and he patted his thigh and said, "Damn, don't mention your kid's luck, it's against the sky! It's not like me, I haven't had good luck in my life."

   "I probably used up all the good luck in this life this time, but you still have hope!" Jian Heng smiled and shook his head.

   Having said that, Sun Siwei's cell phone rang. Sun Siwei took it out and took a look, then turned the phone to silent, and then let the phone ring.

   The two chatted while eating, and Sun Siwei glanced at his phone from time to time.

   After Sun Siwei took a third glance, Jian Heng couldn't help it a little: "Go on, who is this really persistent."

   "Who? Do you know?" Sun Siwei said and picked up the phone.

   He only heard two hums, and then handed the phone to Jian Heng: "Wu Yuanyuan's phone number!"

  Jian Heng froze for a moment, thinking that this person is not coming, why is he calling at this time. I thought so in my heart, but I didn't say it, I took the phone and put it to my ear.

Just after feeding, I heard a burst of crisp laughter from the other end of the phone: "Hey, Jian Heng, old classmate, I'm really sorry, I happened to be with our boss for dinner tonight, so I really can't catch up with you. By the way, you Tomorrow is still there, at noon tomorrow, Tongqing Building, I will be the host!"

   "You're welcome, you're welcome, I'm just passing by here, and I'm leaving early tomorrow morning, thank you!" Jian Heng is not interested in eating his meal.

  Who knew that this person was endless. He asked for two invitations on the phone, and was finally rejected by Jian Heng.

   Returning the phone to Sun Siwei, Jian Heng almost sweated on his forehead.

   "I said, why are you so enthusiastic all of a sudden?" Jian Heng was a little puzzled.

  Sun Siwei swiped his phone twice, and then gave Jian Heng a look at his circle of friends.

   Less than half an hour after seeing it, with more than 30 likes, Jian Heng's head twitched: "What do you say you are doing these things!"

  Sun Siwei put down his phone: "Don't you think it's interesting? I usually only post two or three likes on Moments at most, but it's good today. Damn, I feel like half of my friends have given likes!"

  Sun Siwei said that he was going to pick up vegetables, but unfortunately the chopsticks were stretched out, and the phone rang again. After picking it up and answering it, he chatted a few words and handed it to Jian Heng.

   "..." Jian Heng had no choice but to pick up the phone again.

   Within ten minutes, most of those who couldn't come tonight called.

  Just as I was thinking of saying something, I saw a person pushing the door and walking in, looking around.

  Jian Heng looked at this person's familiar face, and remembered who he was, but he really couldn't think of his name. Anyway, the familiar name was on his lips, but he couldn't remember it.

  Seeing Jian Heng staring at the door in a daze, Sun Siwei turned his head to look at the door. When he saw clearly who was at the door, he immediately put on a weird smile on his face.

   It's just that this smile was replaced by a surprise that was squeezed out in an instant, and he raised his hand and shouted at the person at the door: "Old Xu".

   After finishing speaking, Sun Siwei didn't look at this person, turned his head to Jian Heng and said in a low voice: "Xu Guanning, now working as a civil servant in the Provincial Party Committee, I heard that he has been promoted to a regular course, and their boss seems to appreciate him."

   Jian Heng yelled in his heart, "Fuck me," but a smile appeared on his face.

Now Xu Guanning looks like the one in Jian Heng's memory. In the past, he had half-length hair, looked like a literary youth, and would argue with the teacher from time to time. He looks like a successful person, wearing a navy blue suit and holding a small black handbag in his hand.

   It's just that the person's face has changed so much that it hasn't changed much. It's still a flat face that hasn't changed for thousands of years. The small nose and small eyes are very interesting.

"I'll go, I said it looks so familiar, I haven't seen it for almost ten years, and I don't dare to recognize it. Mr. Jian, when did you come back?" Xu Guanning sat down carelessly, and yelled at the waiter, Let someone add a pair of chopsticks to him.

  Jian Heng replied with a smile: "I just arrived in Shanghai at night, and I came here as soon as I came back."

   "Have we not seen each other for a long time? It's been almost ten years, is there?" Xu Guanning reached out to take the chopsticks handed over by the waiter, and then poured wine for himself.

  Jian Heng said: "No, just a little bit."

   "Yes, in a blink of an eye, everyone is no longer the youth at that time!" Xu Guanning sighed.

  After hearing this, Jian Heng felt melancholy in his heart.
