The Return of the Cannon Fodder in the Palace of Rebirth

For more than half a year, Zhao Dong learned the art of gambling with Shao Qinya, and Gu Hui, who has always been inseparable from him, was able to attend with Shao Qinya's acquiescence.Although Gu Hui didn't like Shao Qinya at first, the child was sensible and knew how to respect his teacher, so after he started listening, even though he felt awkward, he still respectfully called out to the teacher.

Shao Qinya and Zhao Dong have similar temperaments, are equally lazy, and subconsciously reject serious titles like Mr. Teacher.Zhao Dong called Qin Yage for so long, but Qin Ya still wasn't used to it. Seeing that Shao Qinya didn't want Gu Hui to call him teacher, he bad-heartedly suggested that Gu Hui call him after him.In the end, not to mention that Shao Qinya couldn't accept it, Gu Hui couldn't cry out either, so they each took a step back and settled on "Brother Shao", which Shao Qinya always thought was a gangster-like title.

Gu Hui's hard work is no worse than Zhao Dong's, but he saw that Zhao Dong went from unilaterally listening to the lectures, to questioning the teacher, to arguing with Shao Qinya, and now that Shao Qinya's many opinions can be listened to, but he is still unilateral. During the lecture stage, it is inevitable to be a little frustrated.But it is more of admiration, a heartfelt admiration for Zhao Dong.

A-Dong is indeed the smartest person...

But in fact, Gu Hui's theory is far better than he thought, but he didn't find the right reference object. You must know that with the help of spiritual power, Zhao Dong's evildoer is absolutely incomparable.

But no matter how solid the theoretical foundation is, without practical experience to corroborate it, it is just talk on paper.But Gu Hui couldn't help it. His family was not well off, so he naturally didn't have much money in his pocket.Although Zhao Dong has been very kind to him these years, every time his grandma in the big city sends him something good, he will get a share. Sometimes A-Dong asks him to do work, and even ignores him and refuses to pay the wages.But these savings are really not enough in front of a piece of wool that costs dozens of dollars.

It's not that he hasn't come across small materials weighing less than ten kilograms, but he is not Zhao Dong. Without the cheating device of mental power perspective, it is impossible to win every bet.Once he made up his mind to spend all his pocket money to buy a piece of rough stone that he thought was excellent, but only cut out a bunch of stone slices, he was deeply shocked.

Looking at Zhao Dong again, he bought wool for 10 yuan, and sold the untied material to jadeite merchants.Recalling those scenes of material selection, I have to admit that even if he had the same financial resources as A Dong to buy materials, he couldn't do that.Once again, he was soberly aware of the gap between the two, and raised the seemingly omnipotent Zhao Dong to the altar in his heart.

Gu Hui, who has begun to learn how to hide his thoughts, can't let Zhao Dong see through his thoughts at a glance, but after knowing each other for so many years, there is still some understanding between them, Zhao Dong can guess that he wants to try his hand at the end, but he is shy.So these days when Zhao Dong chooses materials, he no longer simply tells Gu Hui the main points of selection, but lets him choose first, and Zhao Dong then chooses from the materials he likes.

If you like it, buy it, and if you don’t like it, explain to Gu Hui why he doesn’t like it. Naturally, he won’t tell the other party bluntly that his spiritual power sees that there is no emerald in it, or even though it is there, it is not worth buying. ╰_╯)#

The strength of the spirit and the power of the memory made it possible for Zhao Dong to systematically classify the imprints on the wool that would not be noticed by others or that had not been connected with the quality and quality of the jade meat. So if Shao Qinya can be refuted, Gu Hui can also be dismissed.

The only shortcoming is that he has not yet been able to explain all the principles of the formation of these imprints, so recently his book list has shifted to geology...

After studying like this for more than a month, Gu Hui clearly felt the advantages of this teaching method, and was very grateful for Zhao Dong's dedication. He felt that no one in this world treated him better than A Dong, and he must repay him in the future. !Naturally, when Zhao Dong pretended that Gu Hui was credited for cutting up the wool and wanted to share his money, Gu Hui's reaction was very violent.

But no matter how resolutely Gu Hui refused, Zhao Dong must have his reasons if he said yes. Everyone saw that he and Gu Hui had a good relationship, and Gu Hui had benefited a lot from him, but they didn't know that Gu Hui had done it for him. how many things.Without Gu Hui's care and assistance, it would be impossible for him to do such a simple thing in the eyes of outsiders.

Under the transformation of spiritual power, this body is very healthy and light, but it is cheating that it cannot be tired or has excessive emotional fluctuations. Otherwise, the tamed mental power in the sea of ​​consciousness will be like a runaway grass mud horse, and there will be thousands of horses galloping in his head. Thankfully, the onset of pain has become immediate, and there is no need to wait in fear like a year ago.

Zhao Dong doesn't like to owe people things, especially favors, so he is very kind to Gu Hui, so good that many children envy him, because the things Gu Hui has done for him are worthy of him.Sooner or later he was going to leave the shop, and he would rather give more than leave a creditor here before he left.Gu Hui doesn't care whether he remembers or not, as long as he has a clear conscience.

"Although the color of this piece of material has changed quite a lot, it still looks brown overall. If you look closely, it has scales. It is called eel skin in jargon. It is a material that can only be produced in old factories." Zhao Dong pointed to the few materials that Gu Hui picked out. The smallest piece said, "Look at this skin again, it is very delicate, with smooth tentacles, if you touch it, does it feel like sand is flowing?" Seeing that Gu Hui touched it seriously, he pointed to several patterns on the skin The imprint, "This black python belt and this pine flower, both indicate that there may be green in it, and combined with the touch of this leather, I am afraid that today there will be Gao Cui..."

"It's also good luck. It's rare to see such an obvious emerald wool. I just chose it according to what you and Brother Shao taught." Gu Hui who was praised was a little happy, but also a little shy after being praised. A mouthful of white teeth.

"Okay, don't be modest." Patting the young man's arm, Zhao Dong's smile showed undisguised approval and a little touch. He knew that Gu Hui didn't seem to need jade, and he didn't love jade so much. So much effort to learn stone gambling is just to accompany him. Fortunately, the skills are not overwhelming. All these hard work will not be in vain. Help us solve this piece, and follow the line I drew."

"Okay!" Because of Zhao Dong's arrival, the boss who had dozens of tourists gathered in front of his shop agreed quite loudly. He heard it right. Mr. Gang Cui said that the material will come from Gao Cui, and he I am sure that as long as the jade meat comes out, these people will definitely not be able to bear it!

Zhao Dong had already looked at this piece of material with mental strength. The watermelon-sized wool material was filled with jade meat, and the ice seeds were full of green. The color was the most positive sun green. up.You must know that the few pieces of ice and glass he gambled here before can't compare with this one in terms of color and size!

With the disappearance of the machine noise, the boss's high-pitched and passionate shout came: "It's foggy, white fog!" After only two cuts, it means that the watermelon has opened the top, and the fog has already appeared-the so-called fog is Jadeite is a kind of transitional jadeite between the skin and the flesh. The white mist shows that there are few impurities in it and the "ground" is clean. No wonder the boss is so excited.

The boss understood, but the tourists didn't understand, so Yanlu took the opportunity to popularize science, and the group of people became excited together.Zhao Dong is actually not used to being surrounded by people, but it seems even more awkward to watch Gu Hui, and he immediately stopped hiding. Children still have to go through a lot of experience, stage fright or something is not a big deal.

The boss saw that everyone was very excited, and after Zhao Dong's consent, the master asked the master to rub it a little bit, which not only stimulates the appetite, but also saves the jade meat from being hurt.However, the lines Zhao Dong drew were too precise, even if the master slowed down, he saw Lu within a few strokes.The boss took the lead again and shouted excitedly: "It's green! It's green!"

Zhao Dong's head is full of black lines, green your sister, green eyes, you...

Zhao Dong stepped forward, picked up a handful of water and poured it on, it was really high ice sun green, the glistening green shadow against the color of the water, very moving.If you look closely in the circle, you are really greedy. Although you don't know much about jadeite, it looks like a good product!The people in the outer circle listened to the exclamation of the inner circle and squeezed together to see it.

Seeing that there were many people, Zhao Dong was afraid of accidents, so he gave the boss a wink, and the boss hurriedly asked the shop assistants who were idle to come out to work as security guards temporarily.But these people are of some status, and the guys didn't dare to be tough, so they could only persuade them nicely with the tour guide.Fortunately, these people are of good quality. I heard that this is the rule of the stone gambling shop. Although they are curious, they did not embarrass these young people.

Now that he was able to breathe, Zhao Dong waved his hand to tell Master Jie Shi to speed up his movements, but the green color inside was too delicate and charming, Master Jie Shi dared not be careless, and only took out the whole piece of jade meat after grinding for 10 minutes.Putting it in the water basin on the side, I saw that the water in the basin seemed to be dyed green, green, swaying and beautiful.

The people who had already retreated a few steps rushed up again, scrambling to see the elegance of the high-grade jadeite, but before they could discuss a few words, they heard a deep voice coming from their ears: "Hehe, Mr. Cui is really a young hero." When it comes to betting on stones, I'm afraid that no one will be able to beat you. It's only been a while, but a piece of high ice and sun green has been gambled. Look at the head of the water, the glass species is nothing more than that." Everyone looked around, and it was a A tall, fat man with a simple and honest appearance, with a smiling face and a kind face, like a Maitreya Buddha.

"Uncle Cai, how many times have I said it, don't call me Mr. Cui, it's ugly, okay?" Zhao Dong couldn't help but smile when he heard this, "Don't ask, you know my habits, and when you come across good materials, you will definitely kill yourself." I will only sell it when I am tired of playing, this piece is in such good condition, I am reluctant to sell it immediately."

"Hey, Mr. Cui, oh no, A-Dong, let's discuss it again. I'll offer 8, oh no, 10, is 10 okay?" The fat man surnamed Cai also had a bitter face when he heard that. However, the oldest jade merchant has been in the jade business for generations.If it wasn't for Shao Qinya, a big monster who had come down by air and met Zhao Dong, a little monster, then Zhao Dong's medicine dregs would have entered Cai's house.

But because Shao Qinya is lazy and only accepts finished products, sometimes Zhao Dong will sell jadeite materials that he is too lazy to carve to Cai Youcai, so he has a good relationship with Fatty Cai.After hearing what he said, I was not moved at all, but just shook my head.

Cai Youcai gritted his teeth: "10, I will leave you a pair of bracelets cut from this material."

Zhao Dong still shook his head: "Uncle Cai, it's not a matter of money or not, a gentleman doesn't take what others like... Let's do it, I'll go to your store tomorrow." Going to the store is naturally to discuss business, whether it's original or not In Zhao Dong's hand, not to mention ice species, there are quite a few glass species.

"...Well, I'll see you tomorrow. You continue to dissect the stone, and I won't bother you." Cai Youcai understood that this was Zhao Dong's biggest concession. Although he was not reconciled, he could only nod his head in response.

After the two finished talking, one turned around and went to other stalls to search for goods, and the other asked the boss to put away the jade meat and continued to dissect the stone. The reaction was very flat.But the reaction of the onlookers was that they were blown away...

10 million!

This is 10 million!

100 cut out of less than 10 pieces of material!

Enough for them to earn 83 years without eating or drinking!

Just such a stone, such a child!

People are still not happy!

Nima, what kind of trouble is this trying to make!

Then, the owner of this wool shop laughed like crazy...

Business is really good today, Mr. Cui is indeed the God of Wealth, hahahaha!

18

The years are quiet and the world is stable. When I saw this sentence for the first time, Zhao Dong and his mother had just been kicked out of the house by their stepfather.Comparing it to the tranquility, beauty, peace and stability is not only a kind of irony, but also a kind of spur, which points out the direction of Zhao Dong's efforts.

Therefore, when the children around him are in secondary school, or express their worries about new words, Zhao Dong just immerses himself in his studies. If it is not for his mother's life-and-death disapproval, Zhao Dong may not go to college in order to work as soon as possible. .He doesn't ask for high education and good treatment, he just asks his mother to suffer less.

In those years, he gritted his teeth and persisted, and finally bought his own house, furnished it according to his mother's description, and announced to her that they had their own home.But not long after such days, she left in a hurry, leaving him alone, facing the empty house, where he could even smell a faint smell of paint...

Whenever he thinks of this, Zhao Dong can't help but thank God for sending him back, even though he has to be as weak as a girl's aunt for a few days every month, and occasionally has to endure the trampling of a hundred thousand grass mud horses when he is tired or excited, but as long as he Mom is doing well, nothing matters.

Sleeping until I wake up naturally every day, I want to eat and move my mouth, I am in a good mood, thinking about the jade in my hand, I am bored, I take the medicine dregs to go to Shao Qinya to exchange money, make jokes with him, and flip through the miscellaneous books that my mother specially asked my mother to find from Binjiang, Throwing a lot of homework to practice Gu Hui, and when he was in a bad mood, he took Gu Hui to gamble on stones in the woolen trading area, picked out all the good materials and solved them, making those woolen merchants cry for their fathers and mothers...

And the old mother who is far away in Binjiang is also doing well, without his untimely appearance, she successfully took over the work of the factory newspaper.Because the articles in it are based on life and close to reality, every issue of the newspaper is a big seller, and its influence among the workers is very unusual. Naturally, Zhao Mingxiu is also in the publishing industry like a duck to water.At the end of last year, after the magazine that had been in preparation was released, many loyal consumers of factory newspapers turned their attention to the magazine. Even without publicity, the sales volume of the magazine was also amazing.

At the beginning of this year, Zhao Mingxiu, who had just turned 30, was promoted again and became the head of the publicity department. Zhao Dong knew that the publicity department would go out independently in half a year at the most, and that would be the day when he and his mother were reunited.If there is any dissatisfaction, it is that the aunts and aunts in the factory pay too much attention to her marriage.

A 30-year-old woman is still unmarried and doesn't even have a partner. This is unbelievable in the 90s when women generally married early.But Zhao Mingxiu is not an ordinary woman after all. She used to be the head of the first company, and now she is the head of the first section. She is in charge of dozens of people. Because the profits of the factory have declined in the past few years, the profit of the publicity department she works in is equal to Half of the benefits of the factory, that is to say, half of the people in the factory depend on her for food.

In the words of the group of young people in the publicity department: It's not that the section chief doesn't want to get married, the key is that you also find someone who is worthy of our sister Zhao!

Although this remark made many men feel uncomfortable, no one dared to speak out against it. No matter how those aunts and aunts wanted to be matchmakers, they were too choked by this remark.He only dared to ask around the bush once in a while, and he had to take advantage of Zhao Mingxiu's smiles a lot.Under the influence of his son, Zhao Mingxiu also agrees with the saying that a leader should look like a leader, and that mixing life and work will affect his dignity.So most of the work is unsmiling, so that those forty or fifty old employees who think they have some qualifications dare to mess with anyone, and they dare not make trouble with her, and at most say a few words behind their backs to vent.

Isn't this kind of life what Zhao Dong has been looking forward to, the years of peace and stability in this world?

Just as he was thinking, he saw Gu Hui pushing the door and coming in, standing against the light, unable to see his expression clearly, until someone sat down beside him, Zhao Dong realized that something was wrong with him today.

"What's the matter? Frowning like this." Zhao Dong moved to the side to make room for Gu Hui.There is a soft wool blanket under the body. In the winter, which is not cold at all, the pond fire is burning to drive away the moisture in the air, and it becomes warmer and warmer.

"My aunt is sick again..." Gu Hui picked up the ashes from the pond, and it took him a long time to answer in a calm voice.

"The last time I went to Ran, what did the doctor say?" Hearing this, Zhao Dong also frowned, "Is the money enough?"

"The doctor said that there is something growing in my mother's kidney, which is why it is so swollen. Time...I'm afraid it's running out, and it hurt all night last night..." The boy said, his eyes were red, even if he was partial , even if there was resentment, it is mother and son after all.Seeing her tortured by illness, the 16-year-old was very helpless. This would be the first time he faced parting from life and death, and the person who left was his mother who was connected by blood.

Gu Hui's desolation made Zhao Dong sigh. Thinking of himself at that time, he understood the pain and regret of having a son who wanted to support him but would not wait for him. Qin Yage, ask him to contact the car, and then go to the provincial capital, if the provincial capital doesn’t work, let’s go to Binjiang, to Kyoto... No matter what, we must try it!”

"A-Dong..." Looking up suddenly, Gu Hui's eyes seemed to be sparked with hope again, but after a while, the light faded away and the darkness reunited, "But, I..."

"You have selected a lot of good materials before, and I am not willing to sell some of them, so I will not be able to give you dividends. Later, I will sort them out and give them to Qin Yage. You can get a lot of money. If not enough, I will There is also some savings there, I will save it for you first, and then you can pay me back when you have money.” Zhao Dong patted the other party on the shoulder and solved another problem for him.But Zhao Dong didn't say that about paying back the money to save face for the other party, he was serious!

Although he doesn't have to worry about starving to death by gambling on stones and jade to upgrade in his life, he is not afraid of [-] but just in case, it is always good to leave a way out.Seeing that Gu Hui is kind, resilient, and has been carefully trained by him and Shao Qinya, even Shao Qinya, who is too narcissistic, once beat around the bush and affirmed that Gu Hui's future will not be easy, which shows that the future is limitless.Zhao Dong didn't expect him to get rich in the future to help him, it would be enough to remember to pay back the money when he was in trouble. Of course, with years of understanding, he believed that Gu Hui would not renege on his debts.

Gu Hui got 20 yuan, and took her into the car to Kongman, the provincial capital, regardless of his mother and stepfather's obstruction.The woman who had been refusing all this time fell silent after seeing the furnishings in the car and stopped speaking.She is not yet 40 years old, and the youngest child can't walk, how can she be willing to die?But the doctor said that she discovered it too late, and it couldn't be cured, and it would be nothing more than hanging her life if she dragged on.But the price of hanging was too high. The meager savings she and the man had managed to save for so many years were not enough for her to stay in the hospital for half a month. She couldn't bring down the whole family for herself, so she chose to go home.

But now, the eldest son, who is always silent, is taking her to the provincial capital to see a doctor in a big car that she has never seen before. He said that no matter how much money he has, he will show it to her, no money from the family is needed, he earned it himself, She couldn't refuse.She wants to live, she doesn't want to die, so even if she understands that her son can't have that much money, she doesn't want to doubt it, this is already the last straw for her, if she grasps it, she won't let it go...

Compared to the couple of the Zhao family who had no information, Grandpa Feng knew about the two children playing with stones. In addition, Zhao Dong once said that jadeite was good for his headaches, and Zhao Dong had more and more pieces of jadeite in his hands. Afterwards, it is true that he seldom suffers from headaches, and he is more convinced that Zhao Dong is the real heavenly favourite.So he has no doubts that the two children have savings on hand.

Now, seeing Zhao Dong, who was unable to go crazy because of the lack of company, he called the kitten Xiao Xiaomao during the holiday to accompany him, so as not to let him stay at home and get moldy.

Zhao Dong was really not used to losing someone by his side all of a sudden. After careful calculation, Gu Hui had been by his side for 6 years. Woolen cloth……

Although money has love, it is not omnipotent after all. In the face of life and death, its role is limited after all.No matter how much Gu Hui spends money, it will only double the remaining two months of Aunt Zhao's life.

On May 94, 5, Gu Hui's biological mother passed away.

Gu Hui hugged Zhao Dong, who came to visit him, and cried hoarsely. Zhao Dong had no time to comfort him, and his eyes were red from crying. Thinking of his mother who hadn't seen him for more than ten years in this life, who was thousands of miles away, suddenly Homecoming is like an arrow...

He should go home.

The author has something to say:

A girl asked how it was calculated in 83. I calculated it roughly. First of all, the glass was 10 yuan. I read the average salary in 91. It varies from place to place, but if the unit can travel together, let’s count it more. , 100/month should not be too much, right?So 10 divided by 100 divided by 12 months, rounded to 83~~~~
