Chapter 5 of October.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Just as Hou Weidong was worried about his job at Maoyun, Guo Lan was busy worrying about her mother's surgery.

After returning to Shanghai, he settled his mother down. Guo Lan went to the hospital to contact the operation again. She was busy until Friday that the miscellaneous matters before the operation were basically implemented. She had to wait for the kidney source, otherwise the operation would not be carried out.

When Longtang County broke up with Hou Weidong, Hou Weidong gave her a card. When he gave the card, Hou Weidong only said the password and did not say how much money was on the card. Hou Weidong did not say it, and Guo Lan did not ask. When he arrived in Shanghai, he could not use the money for the time being and was busy going to the hospital, so he did not check how much money was. However, although Guo Lan did not check the card, he knew that there should be a lot of money in it.

On Saturday morning, the leave that Guo Lan asked for expired, so she returned to school with the card. She went to check the card at the bank counter in front of the school. The query result made Guo Lan's eyes fade. Behind a 5-word, there was a long list of zeros. She tightened her heart and saw that there was no one on the left and right, so she stretched out her finger and counted several zeros.

Guo Lan silently recited the number: "500,000."

Hou Weidong gave two cards, and a total of 900,000 yuan was added together, which was enough for his mother to undergo surgery and later treatment. Guo Lan felt very moved in her heart. If her mother had not had uremia, she would never ask for the money. When her mother needed money the most, Hou Weidong's 900,000 yuan was a timely help.

Guo Lan carefully put the card in her handbag and walked on the tree-lined avenue on the campus. The autumn wind gradually rose and blew off the leaves all over the ground. A few yellow leaves fell on her long hair and windbreaker. She gently brushed off the leaves with her hands and walked on the tree-lined avenue in a hurry. Campus couples kept passing by.

When a couple passed by Guo Lan, the man's eyes fell on Guo Lan, as if the iron nail had encountered a powerful magnet, and he couldn't take his eyes off. When Guo Lan walked away, the man subconsciously turned his head and followed Guo Lan's back. The man admired the beauty on the street. This is normal and most women can tolerate it. But in front of his girlfriend, he turned his head and stared at him, which was too much. The woman who was walking with the man angrily accelerated her pace, but her boyfriend still did not look back. Now, she was really angry.

From the laboratory building next to the boulevard, a handsome man came over. He was over 1.8 meters tall and his hair was a little curly. His face looked very white because he was in the laboratory for a long time. He walked to the boulevard wearing a khaki windbreaker and took a deep breath of fresh air. The cold air entered his body along the trachea, which made him feel refreshed.

Behind him was a foreign girl, a typical blonde and blue-eyed girl. She was tall and came out of the laboratory and said in English to the man in front of her: "Jack, wait."

In recent years of reform and opening up, foreigners are common in open areas such as Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. Especially in universities, there are more foreigners. Everyone has long been accustomed to their existence.

The man walked to the intersection of the path and the boulevard, stopped, and turned around and said, "I know a Lingxi restaurant, please go and try my hometown dishes."

After his eyes, he suddenly saw a back at the end of the tree-lined avenue. His back was wearing a light-colored windbreaker, which was graceful. He was so familiar with this back. When he was in college, he sent the girl he was obsessed with to the girls' building, he liked to watch the girl going upstairs from the long stone staircase. The back appeared in his dreams countless times.

At this moment, he suddenly saw a very similar back, which made him feel as if he was struck by lightning and was stunned.

The girl walked to the Boulevard and held Jack's arm. She noticed Jack's abnormality and asked, "Jack, Jack, what are you looking at?"

At this time, the back of the woman in the windbreaker had disappeared on the boulevard.

"I saw an old friend, Anlika, and I want to look for it."

Anlika said: "It's still early anyway, I'll go with you to take a look."

Jack shook his head, kissed Anlika's face, and said, "You wait for me in the dormitory for a while, and I'll be back soon."

After saying goodbye to Anlika, Jack took a big stroll forward. The boulevard connected many paths. Because it was far apart, he did not see clearly that path. When he arrived at the end of the road, Jack stopped disappointed.

Jack walked along several paths, and the back disappeared in front of him, making him feel like he was in a dream. He thought to himself: "Guo Lan works in Shazhou, so it is impossible for her to come here to study. I must have been dazzled just now, something impossible."

Guo Lan entered the accommodation building of the graduate school at this time. In the dormitory, she called Zhang Yongli. After no one answered, she made a cup of coffee, sat by the window table, and remembered her thoughts.

When Jack was standing in front of the accommodation building, Zhang Yongli's phone came back. She walked to the bed to get her cell phone. When she came back from calling the cell phone, Jack outside the window left with deep frustration.

Guo Lan sat in front of the window thinking about her thoughts. Although the 900,000 was timely rain, she did not feel at ease because of her special relationship with Hou Weidong. The 900,000 made her feel very uneasy. At this time, she had made up her mind to earn 900,000 with her own labor and then return it to Hou Weidong. If she didn't pay it back, she always felt that she was suspected of using her feelings to exchange for 900,000, which was absolutely unacceptable for the proud her.

Although Guo Lan and Hou Weidong's relationship was an extramarital affair from the beginning, as a woman who pursues perfection, she cherishes this relationship very much and is unwilling to use money to tarnish this special love.

Making money and paying back money became a strong wish in her heart.

Before, Guo Lan lived in the two ivory towers of the college and the Organization Department, and did not realize the importance of money. At this time, when the family encountered a big event, she realized clearly what it means to have no money. She took the 500,000 yuan and thought to herself: "If you don't invest, you can't repay the 500,000 yuan, but relying on a foreign trade and clothing store, it is difficult to maintain your mother's condition and get the money back to Hou Weidong."

In the past few days, while Guo Lan was handling the relevant procedures for her mother in the hospital, she was thinking about how to make her first pot of gold. She thought of many ways but still couldn't find a suitable project.

Zhang Yuanli returned to the dormitory and chatted about some gossip. After hearing Guo Lan's doubts, she said: "I personally think that if a girl like us wants to do business, she must find projects that suit her. First, we cannot do too complex projects, industrial enterprises, real estate and other industries that require high-tech and high capital, as well as some companies with particularly strong competition. At present, we are better off doing service projects."

Guo Lan took a calculator, calculated a few numbers, and said, "I have repeatedly calculated these days that I can't afford it in the short term with a foreign trade store, and I have to think of other ways."

"You have to be unfamiliar with business. I have experience in doing clothing now. I think Sister Lanlan will do clothing business and not do miscellaneous things. You can represent a nationally renowned brand and build a Lingxi store. The profit is not small, but the investment is a bit big."

Guo Lan has hundreds of thousands of funds in her hands and has some confidence in her heart, saying, "What brand is the best?"

Zhang Yuanli smiled and said, "Sister Lanlan, this is too simple. Just stare at CCTV's advertisements. Which advertisement is the most powerful, it means that this company is expanding the strongest. As long as Lingxi does not have this brand, you can contact the factory directly. As long as you can get a big brand, you should be able to make money unless you are lucky enough to reach the Atlantic Ocean."

Guo Lan was still a little hesitant. She had no specific experience in business and had a relatively weak ability to judge things. She needed a lot of money to act as a big brand. If the business was not good, it would not only cost money, but also delay her mother's condition. But on the other hand, if she did not invest, she would never be able to repay Hou Weidong's money, which would make her feel that her relationship with Hou Weidong would become impure.

Guo Lan is an extremely smart person. Her previous focus was not on doing business, so she needed guidance from Zhang Yongli, a native of 1980s. At this time, she had basic startup capital and money-making *, so she sat on the bed, turned on the small TV on the bedside, looked over from Central Station One and Two, took a piece of paper, and wrote down the clothing advertisements. Even the lunch was brought back by Zhang Yongli.

When I watched TV, I felt very upset when I saw advertisements. This time I went to watch them with purpose, but the feeling was different. Guo Lan kept changing channels to look for advertisements, and when she changed to Lingxi Provincial Satellite TV, she happened to see news from Lingxi Provincial.

After coming to Shanghai, she rarely read the news about Lingxi. This time she returned to Lingxi and learned that the city level was adjusted at the first level. Out of concern for Hou Weidong, she did not change the channel and happened to see the same program as Hou Weidong.

At this time, Hou Weidong, who was far away in Lingxi Provincial People's Hospital, was also watching Lingxi News. When he saw Li Jianlin and Duan Yiyong talking with Qin Lu, he thought to himself: "Vice Governor Qin Lu should have more conversations with Duan Yiyong, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. There are problems with the news scene." He also thought: "As the director of the People's Congress, Li Jianlin is not in a good position. He should let the Municipal Party Committee Secretary talk to Qin Lu. This is a very immature manifestation of stealing the scene."

After reading a news clip, Hou Weidong connected Zhu Yan's introduction with Maoyun and several leaders. He found that Zhu Yan's evaluation was really accurate.

He thought, "Maoyun's situation is already so complicated. If Zeng Zhaoqiang, who has a strong and gloomy personality, is really not a good thing for me. I have to find a way to stop Zeng Zhaoqiang from coming to Maoyun." But after thinking about it, he is only the deputy secretary-general of the provincial government and has no right to decide on department-level cadres. Even Zhou Changquan, the executive vice governor, could not interfere in the organization department at will. How to prevent Zeng Zhaoqiang from coming to Maoyun is indeed a headache.
