Back to 84: Getting rich from collecting rubbish

Chapter 1308 The Intention of an Old Friend
"Ma Gan, I called you Ma Gan back then, why are you still so thin?" The moment Shen Lin said this, he suddenly found the feeling he had back then.

When he came to Shen Lin's office, Gu Hongde felt a little uneasy.

After all, although he was sure that Shen Lin was the person he was familiar with, after all, he hadn't met him for many years, so he wasn't sure if Shen Lin still recognized him.

The reason why he had the courage to come to Shen Lin this time was because he didn't want to disappoint those students who believed in him.

He didn't want his students to do their homework under the dim kerosene lamp at night.

So after hesitating again and again, he still took a car to Dongzhou, which was both familiar and unfamiliar to him.

Speaking of familiarity, it means that he has lived here with his uncle for two years; speaking of unfamiliarity, it means that Dongzhou has changed so much!

A few years ago, he also returned to Dongzhou once, but at that time, Dongzhou gave him the feeling that there was not much change.

But the current Dongzhou is changing with each passing day, and he has become a little afraid to recognize it.

Among other things, he can no longer recognize many of these buildings in Dongzhou.

Some familiar factories have even turned into Mishell Electronics.

"Shen Lin, you still haven't changed much." Gu Hongde touched his face, smiled awkwardly and said, "I don't seem to gain weight anyway, so I have always been like this."

Seeing that Shen Lin was very familiar with this acquaintance, Fang Xiaomei immediately felt relieved.

Originally, there were colleagues in the office who suggested this kind of thing, so don't tell Chairman Shen.

After all, Dong Shen's real acquaintances would not even have Dong Shen's phone number, but looking at this person's appearance, Fang Xiaomei finally decided to tell Shen Lin.

After pouring Gu Hongde a cup of tea, she quietly withdrew.

"Ma Gan, what have you been doing all these years?"

Shen Lin took a sip of water and asked curiously.

After all, in the previous life, the two of them hadn't interacted much. Now that they finally got together, Shen Lin really wanted to know how this childhood partner lived these years.

"I didn't do anything. I just went back to the village primary school to teach after two years of high school in the county."

When Gu Hongde said this, he scratched his long hair and said, "It's a private teacher, the king of children."

Shen Lin nodded and said, "It's good to be a teacher. I remember your ambition when you were young, which was to be a teacher."

After some conversations, Shen Lin already understood almost everything about his childhood friend.

His life is very ordinary. After returning to his hometown, he went to junior high school and high school. Because he failed to enter university, he became a teacher in the village.

Now married with two children.

Listening to Gu Hongde's introduction to his living conditions, Shen Lin felt slightly moved.

In the previous life, the two people should have been ordinary people, so they were like two fish who forgot each other in the rivers and lakes, slowly losing news of each other.

"Old classmate, what do you want me to do?" Shen Lin took the initiative to see Gu Hongde's hesitant to speak several times.

Gu Hongde took a sip of water from his teacup, and then said: "Shen Lin, I am here this time to buy a batch of garden lights for the students. "

"Our school is located in the mountains, and it is difficult to get electricity. Coupled with the problem of power supply, students study by themselves at night, basically under oil lamps."

"I saw the product introduction of your Mishell Electronics in the newspaper, and felt that this kind of energy-saving lamp is very suitable for us, so I told the principal to buy five energy-saving lamps."

"In the classroom, one for each classroom."

When Gu Hongde said this, he scratched his head and said: "But in your store, this kind of solar garden light is really difficult to buy. I went there three times and couldn't buy it, so I ran over to you." "I thought." Please help me, old classmate, and buy me some solar garden lights."

Shen Lin originally thought that this old friend came to him because he encountered something difficult to solve, so he came to him for help.

But I didn't expect that I wanted to buy a few solar-powered garden lights.

He was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Is Tianyang Neng's garden lights hard to buy?"

"It's really hard to buy! Even if you order in advance, you have to wait half a year. This kind of energy-saving lamp is not only cheap, but also very practical."

"The wealthy people in the countryside basically want to buy one."

Speaking of this, Gu Hongde said: "I came out this time, and I also want to buy one for myself."

"But looking at the hot scene, we still have to wait a long time!"

Hearing this, Shen Lin frowned, and then said: "Don't worry, Hongde, I'll let someone arrange for your solar garden lights."

"I promise, I can press it for you tomorrow."

Speaking of this, Shen Lin continued: "I'll ask about the energy-saving lamps and see if we can increase the production capacity."

"Old classmate, it would be great if the production capacity could be increased."

"You don't know, a family in our neighboring village was the first to buy this kind of garden lamp. Every night, many children, holding a small bench, go to read in his yard!"

Gu Hongde said excitedly: "In some places, the price has been increased by more than ten yuan, and there are still people buying it."

Shen Lin heard that some people also increased the price of solar garden lights, and his expression suddenly became a little ugly.

The reason why this solar garden light is so cheap is that it can be used by anyone who needs it.

Now, someone raised the price, which not only violated his original intention, but also put the part of the profit he gave up directly into his own pocket.

But Shen Lin was very calm at this time, he smiled and chatted with Gu Hongde for a while, and then said: "Hongde, if you are here today, don't leave yet."

"Stay in Dongzhou for one night, let's have a good meal and chat."

"I still have something to do here. You go to the reception room first and have a chat with Chengzi. I'll treat you to dinner tonight."

Gu Hongde said: "Shen Lin, if you can help me buy a solar garden light, you have already solved my big problem."

"My family is still waiting for me at home, so I'll go back first."

Looking at Gu Hongde who turned to leave, Shen Lin stopped him and said, "Old classmate, you don't have a car anymore when you go back to your hometown."

"Listen to me, stay in Dongzhou for one night, we people should also get together and chat."

While Shen Lin was talking, Cheng Zi, who had been notified, had already walked in. Although he and Gu Hongde were not familiar with Shen Lin, they were not strangers either.

Seeing Gu Hongde who was about to leave, he said loudly: "Gu Hongde, what have you been doing these days, kid? I've been there for a while, and I miss you so much."

Having said that, he stepped forward with a smile and gave Gu Hongde a big hug.

Gu Hongde was a little uncomfortable with Cheng Zi's enthusiasm, but the smile on his face had become much brighter.

At this moment, Cheng Zhenyuan came to Shen Lin's office.
