Chapter 233

The "poor household" in Liang Tengtong village dug out a parcel hidden by "uncle" from the mud wall.

With an excited heart, after the package was opened, there was a feeling of "disappointment".

What was contained in the package was not the paper money that everyone was expecting, but a lot of colorful drawing paper.

There are many foreign words printed on it, and the villagers don't know what they are saying?
As the saying goes, "the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment".For quite a long time, the family of the "poor household" kept talking about it, but if they had the opportunity, they would invite people in the city who are proficient in foreign languages ​​to see what was written on the picture?But the enthusiasm to do this, after all, is not great.

After the main body of the new house on the first floor of the "poor households" was built, they had no money to decorate and moved in directly.

Then I randomly stuffed the colorful foreign pictures into the closet.

There are several children in that poor family, the oldest is about 10 years old, and the youngest is only 4 years old.A group of children usually go to school.It's rare to stay at home on weekends, and one by one, they come into the world like "demon boys", turning the family upside down.

The back of the house faces a river of moderate size.

This new house is built next to the river.The family members are also worried that if the children are playful and active, they will go to the river to play, and it will be bad if there is a "drowning incident".

When the children were very young, the family taught them swimming skills one by one.

Although they all know how to swim, the family still warned them sternly: they are not allowed to go swimming without the company of adults.

Under the "big sticks" of the family members, although they usually make a lot of noise, these children dare not do the thing of secretly swimming behind the back of the adults in the family.

If they don’t go swimming during the holidays, these naughty children won’t be able to stay idle.

On a certain day, they dug out that large bag of colorful foreign pictures from the closet at home.Suddenly, they found a new way to play.

They came to origami boats and folded a lot of paper boats.Then, put it in the river behind the house and float away.

The ready-made materials for origami boats are those colorful foreign pictures.

The children unexpectedly discovered that once ordinary paper is soaked in water, it will be soaked in a few seconds and become a ball of wet paper.A boat folded out of ordinary paper will be finished in a short time, and the "retirement period" is too short.

And the boat folded out of the colorful pictures at home can at least float along the river until the shadow is almost invisible before "turning over".

This satisfied the group of children.

They just want the boat to float far away where they can't see it.

What's more, the boats folded out of colorful foreign pictures are also colorful and really beautiful.

On that day, a group of children had a great time playing the rafting boat, which was called "exciting".

When the parents returned home from work, they saw that the group of children basically let go of the package of papers left by "uncle" with origami boats.There are only a few "surviving pictures" left.

After all, it is also a "relic" left by "uncle", and I haven't fully figured out what it is?Is it worth it?

The family members are also very dissatisfied with the ignorant children who tossed all those things.

After scolding them both severely, in the end, only a few pieces of colorful foreign paper were rescued.

These few foreign papers are still hidden in the wardrobe.

However, this time it was hidden in the small drawer in the closet and locked.Children will never touch them again.

Later, Liang Teng, the son of the Liang family who had a good relationship with that "poor household" in the village, was admitted to university.

The family members of poor households thought that Liang Teng had already gone to college, and his English must be quite good.At least they can understand the words written on those colorful foreign papers.

So, during the winter vacation that year, the "poor households" invited Liang Teng to their home, and showed him a piece of paper printed with foreign characters, and asked him to "decipher" the words on it.

It was that time that the impoverished family told Liang Teng all about the legendary experience of their "uncle".The pile of "foreign papers" was left by their uncle, and it is impossible to explain without introducing the life story of "uncle".

When Liang Teng saw those colorful pieces of paper, he was almost "broken in seconds", knowing immediately that they were foreign coins.

He recognized the English on the dollar bill.Even if you don't recognize him, you've seen it in the news before. The face printed on the dollar bill is the famous "Washington".

Just by looking at the appearance, you should know that it is a "dollar bill".

The 9 pieces of paper that are "the only remaining fruits" are all foreign coins.

Four of them are hundred dollar bills, and five are British pounds with a hundred dollar denomination.

According to the exchange rate at that time, 100 U.S. dollars could be exchanged for more than 800 domestic currencies.The pound is more valuable, and 100 pounds can be exchanged for more than 1000 domestic currencies.

These 9 coins alone are worth almost 1 yuan in domestic currency.

Liang Teng is an honest man. Knowing that these are 9 pieces of foreign currency with a total value of about [-] yuan, he never thought of taking them away.

Liang Teng truthfully told the "poor household" family that these pieces of paper were actually foreign currencies.In terms of value, it is equivalent to more than 1 yuan in domestic currency.

Knowing the truth, the family of the "poor household" was "surprised and happy", and also felt "heart-wrenching"!
Why so emotionally complicated? !
nonsense!

Their family is just a "poor household", not a "disabled household" with cerebral palsy.

How could their family forget that there was a big package of "colorful foreign currency" before.If you weigh it, his family can guarantee that it will weigh nearly 5 catties.

It was only then that I was lucky enough to "save" 9 pieces of foreign currency, which were worth tens of thousands of dollars.If all that large package of foreign coins could be recovered, what an astonishing amount of wealth it would be.

5 catties of hundred-dollar bills, even if not all have a face value of 50 yuan, there are also 100-yuan denominations, but 100 yuan is the main one.In addition, there is a more valuable [-] yuan pound... not to mention more, at least it is worth at least one hundred thousand yuan in domestic currency! ?

The popular "betrothal gift" money in the north uses "jin" as the unit, directly weighing the weight of the money.But that is nothing more than the domestic currency.Now the family of "poor households" should have been able to "inherit" the several catties of "foreign currency" left by their uncle.This is so powerful.

According to the analysis of University Student Liang, the large bag of "foreign currency" left by "uncle" includes not only US dollar bills and British pounds, but also French francs, Swiss coins, and Australian dollars... …a wide variety of foreign coins.

After all, when the "uncle" used the "third hand" livelihood skills, he was in a small international country in Southeast Asia.

Over the years, foreign tourists have visited the place.Therefore, in principle, as long as a foreigner with his own currency is stolen by his "uncle", the currency that "uncle" got should be the currency of each country.

Never thought of that.That colorful package contained so many "variety" of foreign currency that it was possible to hold a "foreign currency exhibition" in the inland area at that time.

It's a pity that the wealth, which was originally worth at least one million or hundreds of thousands, just "drifted with the tide".And gone forever.

Originally, tens of thousands of dollars were made out of thin air, which of course surprised and delighted the "poor households" and their families.And thinking of the tens of thousands of dollars, it is just the "tip of the iceberg" out of one million or hundreds of thousands.The truly huge amount of wealth no longer belonged to his family.Originally, such a sum of wealth already belonged to his family's "possession".

The feeling of the family is really like "cooked ducks can fly away".

What a pity.

To say it is "grievously heartbroken" is an understatement, the more I think about it, the more I regret it, "I am in pain."

A wealth of one million or hundreds of thousands, according to his family's situation, let alone a few lifetimes, even dozens of lifetimes, he would not be able to earn it.

It is estimated that "uncle" knew that it was foreign money, so he carefully packed the money in plastic bags, and even dug a mud brick in his residence, and built it himself.

Unknowingly, he hid a large bag of foreign money in the wall.

The reason why "uncle" did not spend these foreign moneys was mainly because there was no official "channel" to exchange those foreign moneys in the mainland at that time.And every time he smuggled abroad to "surprise" to spend money, the "uncle" didn't understand the "devil's talk" of other countries at all, and was worried that he would spend a large amount of foreign money rashly, which would attract people's suspicion.If he was reported to the police and caught, it would be difficult to explain the legal origin of the foreign money? !
Besides, the domestic currency obtained by "uncle" theft is enough for his usual food and drink.Therefore, although he knows that foreign money is very valuable, he has no plans to use it for the time being.Instead, he carefully hid it in his hometown.

The results of it?
Liang Teng also knew what happened later. "Uncle" accidentally offended a "master", and was "slightly punished" by the opponent's key point, but "uncle" didn't take it very seriously at first.As a result, in the second year, once the "injury broke out", he was bedridden with a serious illness, and he was speechless.

In addition, no one in the family was willing to take him to the place designated by the "master" to make amends and ask for acupuncture relief.

"Uncle" was full of resentment, even if he could use a pen to confess his "last words", he told him that there was a huge amount of foreign currency hidden in the mud wall.But he is not going to give this wealth to these unfilial guys for nothing.

In the end, he complained bitterly and left. The existence of "foreign money" kept the "poor households" in the dark.

Later, when it was time to demolish the old house and build a new one, the "poor households" discovered the existence of "foreign money."But their family's education level is too low. How can they understand English?In addition, I don’t like to read the news. I have no idea what foreign currencies look like.

Therefore, by accident, he missed a large fortune.

Don't be surprised, "Uncle" can steal hundreds of thousands by himself.

That is mainly due to the high "exchange rate" of foreign money.The stolen money is probably only tens of thousands of yuan, but if it is exchanged through the "exchange rate", isn't it hundreds of thousands or millions? !

Such a huge sum of money was lost in vain because of the negligence of the whole family and the mischief of a few children.

The grown-ups of the "poor household" family, after remorse, which one is not angry? !
When adults look at those children, they also look at them with resentment, and the more they look at them, the more unpleasant they become.As long as they find an "excuse", they will unceremoniously beat up the children.

In the past, children cried like heart-piercing tears, and adults would feel heartache and soft-hearted when they heard it.But after the experience of "broken appointments" with wealth, the adults all seemed to have eaten gunpowder. The more children cried, the harder they cleaned up.

The children were beaten so hard that they couldn't cry, and they could only beg hard, so the adults had a feeling of "there's more to say", and beat them a few more times before reluctantly giving up.

Under the merciless treatment of the violent parents, the few "bear children" in this family have since become obsequious to their parents and dare not disobey the adults-this can be regarded as a windfall.

The past cannot be traced!

It is useless for the "poor households" to regret.I can only clean up my mood.Ask Liang Teng to find a way to convert the foreign money worth tens of thousands of yuan into domestic currency.

At that time, in the small third-tier city where Liang Teng lived, there was actually a branch of the "People's Bank of China".Foreign coins can be directly exchanged at the People's Bank of China.

You must know that it is difficult to "exchange" domestic currency to get some foreign money.However, the direct exchange of foreign money into domestic currency has been liberalized at that time, and there is no difficulty at all.

Liang Teng found out everything.

I took some time and took a few adults from "poor households" to the local "People's Bank" to exchange nine US dollar bills and British pounds into tens of thousands of domestic currency.

It's funny to say.

After all, it is a small third-tier city. Although there is a "People's Bank" that can exchange foreign money, the staff who received Liang Teng and his party probably have no experience in this kind of exchange.I took the foreign money, studied it over and over again for a long time, and even invited colleagues to participate in the "identification".

It is estimated that these foreign currencies were printed decades ago, not foreign money printed in recent years, so the bank staff took a particularly cautious attitude in identifying them.

In the end, I even took a magnifying glass, carefully identified it many times, and finally confirmed that it was real money.Then, more than 1 yuan was exchanged for Liang Teng and his party.

The family of "poor households" made tens of thousands of dollars out of thin air, and they were full of sorrow and joy.

As promised in advance, Liang Teng would give him some money as a reward after he helped exchange foreign money.

I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional. Afterwards, the "poor household" family didn't talk about "remuneration" with Liang Teng at all.This is an afterthought, and I am reluctant to give it.

Liang Teng didn't care about these things either.After all, even according to the character of the "poor household" family, even if there is any "remuneration" for him, it is at most one or two hundred yuan.Liang Teng was still a college student at the time and hadn't made a fortune, but he didn't think 200 or 200 yuan was worth much? !

After graduating from university, Liang Teng has been busy making a living outside the home.There is also little contact with the "poor household" at home.

I don’t know what happened to them afterwards?
However, Liang Teng was deeply impressed by the legendary life of the "uncle" of the "poor household".
