Chapter 72 Wealth 723,000 yuan (please ask for monthly votes)
The next day,
Fang Bai woke up before dawn.
Winter has entered, the temperature outside is close to zero degrees Celsius, and a thick chill fills the air.
He turned on the gas stove, heated up the water and took a bath.
It is much more convenient to have a gas stove than to burn firewood, but if an ordinary family saw Fang Bai using gas to boil water for bathing, they would definitely scold him: "You prodigal boy, you don't know that gas is expensive, and you don't know how to burn firewood!" "
No way, money is so willful.
A household worth ten thousand yuan is amazing!
What's more, Fang Bai, who lives in a household worth 100,000 yuan, got high when he took a shower:
"Lu la la, lu la la, lu la la, lu la la, I love taking a bath..."
In a few minutes, he was able to get rid of the smell of alcohol from last night.
I have to say that the bathroom in this kind of building is much better than the leaky bathroom in my hometown. At least when I take a bath in winter, there is no cold wind blowing in.
The only bad thing is that you can no longer see the sky and stars while taking a shower.
Alas, it lacks some poetry and picturesqueness.
After taking a shower, Fang Bai trotted back to the bedroom in high spirits, quickly covered himself with a quilt, and nestled in bed under the quilt to read.
Two days later, there will be another monthly exam, which is also the last monthly exam before the Spring Festival holiday.
The next semester exam will be a mock exam with fresh graduates, using city-wide papers.
Fang Bai didn't go to college and felt a little regretful. Even though he was decades old, he still longed for college life.
What is college life like these days?
Others may be fantasizing about their college life and looking forward to the arrival of love;
As for Fang Bai's college life, hey, there's nothing he can do about it, he already has a partner, so he doesn't have to worry about it.
anyway,
Even if there is no golden finger that requires him to study for a pinnacle degree, he actually feels that it is necessary to go to college. Even thirty years later, being a college student would be worse than being a dog.
Read a book for a while and check how much personal wealth you have.
Recite it silently, and it will appear on the virtual screen instantly.
[Personal wealth: 723,000 yuan]
In fact, he has about 400,000 yuan in cash at his disposal, but he didn’t specify the exact amount.
Counting money is too tiring. Now Fang Bai’s mother is the favorite in the family, followed by his father.
In this early 1990s, with nearly one million assets, I was really happy and happy.
Fang Bai's parents are a little tired every day, but they all have smiles on their faces and look much better than before.
Turning back to his thoughts, Fang Bai memorized common English sentences for a while, felt a little sleepy, and continued to sleep.
He missed Qin Shuyu a little, thinking that the pillow was her and hugging it.
The weather was a bit cold, so he couldn't help but curl up and hug him tighter.
Maybe, every man will be like this when he is lonely, right?
There is no heating in Wencheng, and there are no electric blankets for sale these days. He spreads a 6-pound quilt and another 8-pound quilt, which is enough to keep him warm.
Two days later, on December 29, the third monthly exam was held.
When there were still ten minutes left before the exam, Fang Bai came to the classroom.
He felt that these classmates were quite good. They all experienced a failure in the exam. Frustrated, they chose to repeat high school life for a year, hoping to re-enter the ideal university through repeating.
Being able to dare to pick up the confidence and run towards your dreams, even if you fail, is worthy of respect.
If he didn't know the future situation, he might be just as confused as these repeat students after failure.
The classroom was quiet. He heard footsteps when he walked into the classroom, and saw his classmates looking towards him with a sunny smile before sitting down.
When Fang Bai saw that his deskmate was not there, he asked the fat girl in the front row: "Classmate Xiao Ai, where is the big guy? Why aren't you here?"
Zhang Xiaoai turned around and said, "Yesterday, the big man's mother came to school. She seemed to be in a panic. There must be something urgent. Without telling us, the big man asked for leave and left school."
"Well, let's talk about it after the exam."
After a while, the papers began to be handed out and the official exam began.
Two days later, at four o'clock in the afternoon, the exam was completed.
The repeat students breathed a sigh of relief after finishing the exam. There will be a New Year's Day party tonight.
The day after tomorrow is New Year's Day, and tomorrow and the day after are off, so it's rare for the tense students to relax.
For Fang Bai, there are no parties or holidays. When he is tired from studying, he takes a break or is busy with business.
At least before the college entrance examination, he didn't have much free time to waste.
After the exam, he went to the class teacher and asked about Wang Dakai.
"Wang Dakai, I heard that his father is in the hospital with a broken leg and will not take the monthly exam. He will go back to help for two days."
Fang Bai breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that his leg was broken.
I guess his mother didn’t know that her son was going to take the monthly exam, so she was panicked and had no choice but to come find her son.
"Teacher, do you know which hospital it is? I want to visit and see if there is anything I can do to help."
"I don't know. It's rare for Wang Dakai to have you as his deskmate." Zhan Feng said with a solemn expression, "Hey, when Wang Dakai asked for leave, I should have asked clearly."
"Oh, that's right. Do you have the specific address of his home?"
"That's true. If you come to visit, please give me my regards." After Zhan Feng finished speaking, he took out a book that recorded the student's family information, found Wang Dakai's information, tore off a piece of paper, and copied the information. Pass it to Fang Bai.
"Okay, I'll just go by myself. I just finished the exam and the class teacher has a lot of things to do. You are busy with your work."
Fang Bai took the note and glanced at it. Chang'ao Village was only five or six kilometers away. Seeing that there was no information about Wang Dakai's parents, he asked Teacher Zhan for it.
Zhan Feng nodded. It was rare for students to understand that although there was a holiday on New Year's Day, she still had a lot of work to do as a class teacher, and she didn't actually have a holiday.
Fang Bai is a very careful student. Just now she only copied Wang Dakai's address and forgot to copy down his parents' names.
If you go to the village to find someone, the villagers in the same village may not necessarily know the young man Wang Dakai, but most likely they will know Wang Dakai's father.
Fang Bai left school in a hurry, went home, packed some cash and two packs of cigarettes into his backpack, got on his motorcycle and went to the vegetable market to buy a few kilograms of fruit before setting off.
As far as he knew, Wang Dakai's family's financial situation was average, but now that the main family pillar was fractured, life might be somewhat difficult.
Wang Dakai is a pretty good person and worthy of his close friendship.
Fang Bai doesn't have many friends in his life. High school friendships are not mixed with random interests. If his classmates are in trouble, just help them if you can.
More than ten minutes later, Fang Bai arrived at Chang'ao Village. When he met the villagers, he sent smoke to ask for directions.
"Uncle, do you know where Wang Dakai's home is? I am his classmate, and his father's name is Wang Bing."
"Oh, Wang Bingjia, this village road goes straight to the big banyan tree and turn right. Can you see the big banyan tree?"
Fang Bai followed the direction pointed by the uncle and saw a big tree. It was a little far away. He didn't know if it was a banyan tree. He checked again: "That tree two or three hundred meters away? The one next to the white-walled house?"
If you don’t ask clearly, you will run away blindly when the time comes.
"Yes, that's right there. When you get there, his house is nearby. Just ask."
"Okay, thank you." Fang Bai handed out another cigarette and asked for the details before riding away.
The uncle watched Fang Bai leave on his motorcycle, feeling a little envious of these rich people.
After a while, Fang Bai came near the banyan tree, found a villager and asked for directions, and soon found Wang Dakai's home.
The three-room building on the first floor faces south, and the side room is a two-room tile-roofed house. Just comparing the houses, it is much better than my hometown.
I just didn't know if anyone was home. I saw the door of the nave was ajar and shouted into the room:
"Dakai, are you home?"
Just after shouting, a burly young man in cotton-padded clothes walked out of the house. It was Wang Dakai, but his face did not have the sunny smile of the past, but more of a sad look. Seeing Fang Bai arriving on a bicycle, he was very surprised:
"Boss, why are you here?"
Fang Bai parked the car, walked over, and patted him on the shoulder: "I heard from Xiao Ai that there is something wrong with your family. Come and see, how is your dad now?"
Wang Dakai said sadly: "My right calf is fractured. I just had the surgery. It's not a big problem. I'll be in the hospital now, hey."
"Are you the only one at home?" Fang Bai looked around and saw no one else.
"My mother is with my father in the hospital, and my brother has not come back from the junior high school. I am back to guard the house. I have to feed the pigs and chickens. Come inside and sit for a while. My home is simple, don't dislike it."
"Why do you dislike it? Your house looks very nice."
Fang Bai replied, took out the car key and stuffed it into his trouser pocket, and followed him into the central hall.
The cement floor and the walls have been scraped with dust. There is an unpainted round dining table and a few chairs in the middle of the room. A wooden sofa is placed against the east wall. There is a simple cabinet against the west wall with a There is a 14-inch black and white TV set, and there is an incense table in the center of the nave for ancestors.
It's a pretty good layout, much better than my hometown.
After Fang Bai sat down on the edge of the sofa, Wang Dakai washed the cup and poured him tea, only to find that there was no boiling water and wanted to boil water.
"Open it wide. No need to worry. I'm not thirsty. Let's sit down and talk."
"Oh, I'm so sorry to have to travel so far." Wang Dakai felt embarrassed. It was hard for him to even drink a cup of hot tea when the boss came.
There was something going on at home, and the boss came here in person. It must have been quite a struggle to find my home, and I felt a little apologetic.
"Don't mention this. I ride my motorcycle fast. I see you didn't take the monthly exam. When will you go back to school?"
"I don't plan to study anymore. I'm going to say goodbye to my teachers and classmates when I go back. I plan to go out and work."
"You kid, if you don't study just because you are short of money, I can lend you money;
But if you don’t want to read it anymore, that’s okay. It’s better to come out sooner. The question is, have you decided what to do? "
Wang Dakai smiled bitterly: "Thank you, boss. My grades are not good. I only scored about 430 points in the two monthly exams. It has been almost a semester and there has been no improvement. I probably won't be able to get into college if I continue studying."
Fang Bai looked at Wang Dakai with sympathy. He understood this feeling of despair and confusion.
The college line is about 500 points, which is a difference of 60 to 70 points. This gap is indeed very large for Wang Dakai, and it is extremely difficult to make up for it through simple efforts.
This is not as easy as having a golden finger to improve your performance.
There are too many students like Wang Dakai. Looking at the huge score gap, they are very desperate, thinking that they can make a big improvement after repeating one year.
But the reality is not as beautiful as they imagined. The original basic score is more than 400 points. It is really good to be able to improve by more than 50 points after one year of repeating. It is really very rare to be able to improve to more than 70 points.
Three years later, the country abolished the job allocation system for college students. After three years of college, students may not be able to be assigned a job.
It's okay to be assigned to a good unit, but if it's the kind of unit that can't guarantee income due to drought or floods, it's really better to start a business as early as possible.
In short, Fang Bai does not encourage or recommend Wang Dakai to continue to re-study. Everything depends on him.
As a classmate with whom I have a good relationship, I help whenever I can, so I asked with concern:
"Is your dad still short of money for surgery?"
"The surgery will cost several hundred. My mother said that the family still has some savings, so the difference won't be much different. It's easy to borrow it from relatives."
Hearing this, Fang Bai took out a bag of fruit from his bag and put it on the table, then took out a thousand yuan and handed it to him: "I'll lend you a thousand yuan. I'll pay you back when your family has money. I'm not in a hurry."
Seeing Wang Dakai hesitant to speak, shaking his head and not daring to answer, Fang Bai smiled calmly: "Take it, my family sells TVs, and I don't need this little money. You call me boss. If you have difficulties, I have to help. "
After listening to Fang Bai's words, Wang Dakai solemnly nodded and said gratefully: "Well, thank you, boss, five hundred is enough."
Fang Bai slapped the money directly into his hand and said in an irresistible tone: "You must leave enough budget for yourself in everything you do. Your younger brother is still in school. Your father is recovering from his injuries. He said he won't be able to make money in a few months, and the New Year is coming soon." How can I celebrate the New Year if my family doesn’t have any money?”
Wang Dakai scratched his head and felt embarrassed, but finally accepted the money: "Okay, I'll borrow it!"
His father was still short of two to three hundred yuan, which he originally had to borrow from relatives. His younger brother also needed money to go to school. The father, the mainstay of the family, could not continue to make money for the time being. He borrowed five hundred yuan and borrowed one thousand yuan.
It's all a debt of gratitude anyway, so I might as well just owe it to you for the rest of your life, and you're just going to die.
“Think carefully about studying, and don’t regret it because of money;
If you really don’t want to repeat your studies and want to start a business, you can borrow money from me;
But if you just want to work and make money, then you come to me. I need people to help me with work. I started my TV stall. A salary of several hundred yuan a month is no problem. "
Fang Bai thought for a moment and said seriously.
He didn't interfere with Wang Dakai's choice, he just gave him a way to see which way he chose.
If you hang out with him, he will give him a fortune, but he won't say so yet.
Fang Baique is worthy of his trust, and Wang Dakai is worthy of training. He has a careful heart and is tall and strong, which is rare.
There is still more than a year before the subscription certificate is issued. Fang Bai needs to choose trustworthy people to help him now. He will not feel safe if there are not more than a dozen men by then.
Father, Wang Dakai, and then find some trustworthy relatives and friends, college classmates, and the group of part-time students he is inspecting.
This is a feast of wealth, and Fang Bai doesn't want any safety issues or abnormalities.
After hearing what Fang Bai said, Wang Dakai was slightly surprised that the boss of his TV stall was the one who started it.
The boss has clearly said that he is short of people, so why should he hesitate? If the younger brother doesn't hang out with the boss, does he still want to go it alone?
As for starting a business, forget it, he feels that he is not the material.
"Then I will definitely follow you."
Fang Bai was very satisfied with his answer, but he still said calmly: "I'm going back first. You can think about it carefully and come to me after finishing the family affairs."
"Don't think too much. What's there to think about? I can decide my own affairs. Boss, I will come to you after I finish handling the family affairs. Don't leave me alone."
"Well, let's think about it carefully and discuss it with our family."
Fang Bai rode away, and after driving for dozens of meters, he showed a happy smile.
