Confessions of a Salesman

Chapter 146 Two Admirers

I also took out my own cigarette, lit it up and said: "I also smoke, you forgot, once at the end of the month I had no money to eat, and when I was hesitating whether to buy a pack of cigarettes or a breakfast at the canteen, you came over and bought me some breakfast, and said I would die if I wanted cigarettes."

Mei Xiaofang smiled and said: "I remember, I remember, I still remember that you insisted on buying a pack of cigarettes and passing cigarettes to someone, and someone might treat you to breakfast. Now I invite you, and the cigarettes are saved." .”

I laughed out loud, and recalled, "At that time, I was worried at the end of the month. There was a meal, and there was no meal. Fortunately, you often asked for relief."

Mei Xiaofang raised Erlang's legs gracefully, took a puff of cigarette and said, "How can I help you? You didn't need me to help you at that time. Xinger will send you the meal tickets at the end of the month. The last one During the semester, Xing'er moved out, and I seldom see the two of you except in class."

I rubbed my head and said, "At that time, I had a lot of soft food, let's not talk about it, let's see how beautiful you are now, how have you lived these years?"

Mei Xiaofang exchanged legs and said: "That's as good as you said. After graduation, I went back to my hometown in Shandong and didn't find a job, so I just helped at home. At that time, our hometown, every family was doing Cosmetics, that is, cream, a machine costs less than 5 yuan, add some glycerin, stearic acid, essence and so on, stir it, then put it in a vat, and sell it directly to outsiders. They go to various households to collect , You can earn 8 or 10 a year.

Later, I thought about it, we made a 20KG barrel of cream by ourselves and sold it for 80 yuan, and they sold it for more than 100 yuan for a small bottle. Why, why can’t we pack it ourselves?It just so happened that a brand-name cosmetics company was not doing well and was about to close down and liquidate. I discussed with my family to buy a brand, package it myself, and find a market for it. "

I said with admiration: "You said it lightly, but it must have been difficult and not easy at that time. Now you are a big entrepreneur and a big boss. When you were studying, I said, you must be the leader of our class. The most promising."

Mei Xiaofang smiled and said, "Forget it, you didn't even bother to look at me at that time, but I don't blame you, it was indeed too ordinary at that time."

I was speechless for a while, in fact, I really didn't pay much attention to her at that time, it wasn't because she was good-looking or ugly, but my mind was not on other women.

Mei Xiaofang saw that I had stopped talking, so she asked me, "Do you think I'm ridiculous and have plastic surgery?"

I immediately replied: "No, not at all. I think this is a great act of yours. In order to make others look pleasing to the eye, you endured the pain and transformed yourself. What is your great contribution? You are igniting yourself and illuminating others!"

Mei Xiaofang was amused by me, and said: "Many people have comforted me, your statement is very fresh and creative."

I smiled and said, "I don't have much ability to eat for a living, so I just need to open my mouth now."

Mei Xiaofang asked: "What's the matter? Are you going to talk about cross talk now?"

I shook my head and said, "I went to apply for the job, but they didn't want me because they said I was too handsome to be a cross talk, but a star."

Mei Xiaofang was amused by me again, laughed for a while, and then returned to normal and said: "Seriously, how have you been these years? I remember the last time we communicated, you said you were working in Wanzhong, and you just broke up with Xinger .”

I don't remember the last time I corresponded with her, but I still keep that letter.I replied: "Now I'm still in Wanzhong, I can eat a living, I can barely get by, I can't compare with you!"

Mei Xiaofang lit another cigarette and said, "But what can I compare to? You see me well, I see you well. I was married once, and my ex-husband was the sales director of our company. At that time, he tricked me into getting it. , I also know that I am not good-looking, but I think I have to marry someone. Instead of finding someone who is too good, it is better to find someone I can control.

Only then did I know that even if a woman has money, she may not be able to achieve happiness. If she wants to achieve true happiness, she has to completely change herself, so she went to Korea. I don't know myself when I see myself in the mirror.

Later, I looked for men everywhere, as long as they came for my beauty, I would sleep with him. I gradually felt that it was meaningless. Now, I have made enough money and played enough with men, and my mind is peaceful. Many, just looking for someone, transshipment around the world, vacation, travel. "

I praised: "Bodhi does not have a tree, and a bright mirror is not a stand. There is nothing in the first place, so where is the dust. You have returned to yourself, and this realm is high."

Mei Xiaofang said angrily: "Can you speak well, why are you always mocking me?"

I said innocently: "You are really wrong to blame me. I have been tired of working all these years, and I am always intriguing. I am either scheming or being scheming. Now I have to run around for money. If I have you With so much money, I also want to do what you said. You have seen it through, realized it, and you are bearish about everything, so I can’t do it, and I am still running around for a living.”

Mei Xiaofang looked at me and said suddenly: "Then go travel with me, take a vacation, I have plenty of money, let's live the life we ​​want to live together."

I was stunned for a moment, I didn't expect her to be so direct, and then said with a playful smile: "Then I will really eat soft food, besides, someday you will look down on me, I am old and old, kick me off, I At that time, those who are called every day should not make the earth not work well, won’t they starve to death on the street?”

Mei Xiaofang said sincerely: "No, no, I will always treat you well!"

At this time, the door was knocked, and I had a chance to break free from a sudden show of love, so I hurriedly strode to open the door.

Coincidentally, the person standing outside the door was none other than my first love, Qian Xinger.

Xing'er was dragging a big suitcase. Seeing me standing at the door, like a lover in love, she smiled and said, "What are you looking at? Why don't you help me with my luggage?"

Only then did I react, took the luggage and walked into the room.Mei Xiaofang who was sitting on the sofa stood up and put on her glasses.Just as I was thinking wildly, a picture of two women fighting each other in order to snatch me appeared in my mind.Xinger happily stepped forward to hug Mei Xiaofang, and said enthusiastically, "Xiaofang, you are here too."

Mei Xiaofang took off her glasses, and responded enthusiastically: "Yes, I came a day earlier than you, and you are still so beautiful and young!"

I looked at the two classmates who had not reunited for a long time, and asked Xinger curiously: "You can tell that she is Xiaofang at a glance? Xinger, you have changed. The society is really a big mess. Putting such a pure little girl Girl, you have become such a hypocritical woman."

Xing'er gave me a blank look and said: "We sisters are very affectionate, we have been in constant contact, of course I can recognize it, unlike you who are ungrateful and ungrateful, who have not contacted for a few years at once."

Mei Xiaofang nodded and said: "He is the most unconscionable in our class. Others still contact me from time to time. He is good. He disappeared without a trace. According to his style in school at that time, everyone agreed that he must It's the weathering problem that goes in."

I laughed and said, "You know me better. I'm also on parole for medical treatment now. It's only my fault that Yushu is facing the wind. Everywhere I go, there will be a typhoon. The local people have said that I am a handsome star who has never been seen in 50 years. I am so attractive. , Therefore, I had no choice but to control my scope of action, mainly for fear of causing riots."

Mei Xiaofang said contemptuously: "I thought I had seen countless people, and I was shameless when I saw too many people, but you made me feel like there are people outside the sky, and there are people outside the world. Admiration, admiration, Xinger, how did you know how to read it back then?" Where was the last person who was so arrogant and shameless?"

Xing'er said casually: "I'm blind, who hasn't met a few people in this life..." She didn't go on, maybe because she felt that the word scum was not suitable for me.

I made an excuse: "The best in the world, isn't it?"

Xing Er nodded in embarrassment, and then the three of them became speechless for a while.

Mei Xiaofang put on her glasses again and said, "It doesn't prevent you from reliving your old friendship. The car will pick you up tomorrow morning, and we'll go back to our alma mater!" After speaking, she left gracefully.

Leave me and Xing Er.I was embarrassed and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Xing'er naturally opened the luggage, took a pajamas from inside and said, "I'm going to take a shower, I've been on the plane all day, and my whole body smells so bad."

I groaned, not knowing how to answer.Then, I heard the sound of running water in the bathroom.I thought, wouldn't it be so natural?Are people so open now?I can't help it, I'm sorry Katsuo.Thinking of this, I just remembered that I haven't reported yet today.

I dialed Shengnan's phone: "Girl, what are you doing? Cha Gang!"

Shengnan was a little noisy on the phone, and said: "Today, my colleagues had a dinner together and had a buffet. It wasn't good. If I knew it, I would have asked you first."

I can imagine Katsuo eating the buffet, the table must be full of things, and then she will eat everything on the table with great concentration.

I smiled and said, "Do you know what to eat in a buffet?"

Katsuo replied, "Eat like hell!"

I sighed and said, "Let me ask you a question first? This question is rather profound, so you have to think about it with your heart, you know?"

Katsuo replied straightforwardly: "Understood, you ask?"

I asked, "If you want to fill an empty bottle, should you fill it with stones or water first?"

Shengnan replied without thinking: "It must be loaded with stones first. If water is filled first, the water will have buoyancy, and the stones will not be full."

I said with satisfaction: "The answer is correct, now you should know how to eat a buffet, right?"

Katsuo didn't react and shouted: "What and what? How do I know what to eat?"
