1. Go back nineteen years
At the end of August, the temperature in Beitong City was a little frighteningly high.
Even the insects in the bushes were so hot that they couldn't chirp.
"It's really hard to live. ”
Zhou Fangyuan waved the fan vigorously to fan the wind, but unfortunately all the fans were hot air, and the fan for a long time made him sweat more. If you don't fan, you can't do it, and if you don't fan, he will sweat more.
It would be nice to have an air conditioner at home.
Zhou Fangyuan thought.
Then he shook his head helplessly and threw out the delusions in his head.
This year, the air conditioner is not cheap, one will cost thousands, just look at the price, but it is similar to more than ten years later. But you must know that people's wages are far from those in more than ten years, taking Zhou Fangyuan's parents as an example, the two of them work in a factory, and their family's land is rented to villagers in the same village. After a year's salary and rent, the income is only more than 2,000 yuan, and in addition to daily expenses, it is already the result of Zhou's mother to be able to save 1,000 yuan.
Even so, his family's income is quite large in the village. You must know that in this small village on the outskirts of the city, there are families who sell coolies to farm land, and there are many families who can only earn three or five hundred a year.
But even so, if you want to buy an air conditioner, you have to take out the old money that you have accumulated for several years, not to mention that Zhou's father and Zhou's mother will not agree, even if they agree, Zhou Fangyuan is reluctant to spend this money.
The air conditioner can't be thought of, the electric fan can be pondered, but now he has more important things to do.
Lowering his head and looking at the outline that he had been busy writing for several days on the desk, Zhou Fangyuan nodded with satisfaction.
This is a "package of wealth plan" customized for himself and his family, which records in detail the changes in Beitong City in the next 19 years, including the renovation of the old city, the cleaning of the Gan River, the establishment of the airport, and the start time and route of the subway.
It's hard to say how surprised this thing would be if it was seen by others, but eleven out of ten people would treat Zhou Fangyuan as a madman or a fool.
Zhou Fangyuan is not crazy, not only is he not crazy, he is also very sober. He knew very well that every stroke he wrote was a history that would happen, because he had experienced it himself in his previous life.
That's right, Zhou Fangyuan is a reborn person, he came from 19 years later, which was not far away, because of a drunkenness, he inexplicably returned to 98.
When he was sure that he was not dreaming, the whole person was immersed in endless ecstasy.
What a mysterious, incredible word. He had read it countless times in the novel, and he had fantasized about it more than once, but he never thought that this kind of thing would happen to him one day.
It is said that to be reborn in a lifetime is to make up for the regrets of the previous life, but for Zhou Fangyuan, what he has to do is obviously more thorough - he wants to completely reverse his life. Regrets or something, in Zhou Fangyuan's life of more than 30 years, there are countless of them. And most of this is caused by his own lack of courage, and by the time he woke up, it was already too late.
His family has failed, his parents are old, and he has no time to marry a wife and have children, even if he starts from scratch and works again, his parents will not enjoy any blessings. So Zhou Fangyuan began to give up on himself, in addition to the necessary work, he would spend his days with alcohol in his spare time. In just two years, the whole person is so decadent that he doesn't look like a young man in his thirties at all, but like a middle-aged man in his forties and fifties.
If this rebirth is an opportunity given to him by God who can't stand it, then Zhou Fangyuan will definitely seize this opportunity fiercely, with grasping and biting, even if he breaks off his nails and tears out his teeth, he will definitely not let go.
So he wrote this "Package of Fortune Plan", which recorded in detail all the changes in Beitong City in the next ten years, with these things, even if it is just a house master, it is enough for their family to live a rich life.
For example, the clean-up project of the Gan River, which will start at the turn of the millennium, will not only remove the sediment accumulated on the riverbed and artificially widen the river, but also build two garden projects on both sides of the Gan River that are more than ten palaces long and thousands of meters wide.
And this is undoubtedly an opportunity.
You know, the Gan River is still a small ditch, but when the new mayor takes office at the end of next year, the plan for the improvement of the Gan River will be proposed, and the land acquisition and river clean-up work will begin in the spring of the next year. In other words, the rotten river beach, which is worthless now, will be worth an unimaginable level by the beginning of the following year.
And now the owners of these rotten river beaches, that is, dozens of villagers in Xingwang Village on the outskirts of the city, will also receive a lot of compensation because of land acquisition, and they have become the first people in Beitong City to become rich because of urban transformation.
Originally, Zhou Fangyuan's family also had the opportunity to enjoy all this, because his family was a villager of Xingwang Village, and his family had a piece of land with a size of more than ten acres on the river beach. As a result, because of him, his family missed this biggest opportunity to turn their lives.
Guy graduated from junior high school this year and was about to go to high school, because the high school entrance examination results were very bad, and the family begged his grandfather to borrow a large amount of money from his grandmother in order to let him go to a better school. But even so, it is still not possible to meet the high school choice fees required by the school. In desperation, his parents had no choice but to sell the family's land, and the money from the sale of the land was used to provide for his education.
If he can really learn something, then it's okay, the problem is that he was too ignorant in the previous life. Obviously his family is poor, he spends the money of his parents to smash pots and sell iron, and goes to school with the tuition fees of high-priced students, but he doesn't know how to study hard, and he only knows how to mess around in the game hall all day long.
As a result, after the news of the expropriation of the wasteland on the river beach spread, Zhou's father and Zhou's mother had an unknown amount of gray hair on their heads overnight. When Zhou Fangyuan graduated from college and returned to his hometown to work as a courier for others without achieving anything, there were even more wrinkles on his parents' faces.
This incident also became a laughing stock among the relatives and friends around him, so that Zhou's father and Zhou's mother could no longer hold their heads up for the rest of their lives.
It can be said that the culprit of all this is actually Zhou Fangyuan himself. It is precisely because of his incompetence that his parents' investment has been wasted, but the price of this drift is so big, even now that he thinks about it, Zhou Fangyuan feels a pain in his heart.
Therefore, making money is one thing, and the regret that Zhou Fangyuan wants to make up for most in his heart is to fight for his parents. He still vividly remembers the way his parents bowed down in front of other relatives at extended family gatherings, and he remembered the contemptuous glances of his other siblings when they looked at him.
The previous life is already in the past, and this life has just begun, so if he wants to reverse all this, he has to start today.
......
I flipped through the results of my three-day efforts, and the strokes on it were all written about my experiences and regrets in the next ten years.
After looking at it for a while, Zhou Fangyuan took out a lighter from the drawer, took out a broken aluminum basin with coal ash from the firewood room, ran to the yard, and burned the things he had worked hard for three days with a fire.
This thing must not be left behind, otherwise once it is seen, it will be a disaster that cannot be explained at all.
As for why he wrote this thing, there are many reasons, but the main reason is that Zhou Fangyuan's own memory is already very vague.
After all, it was an intermittent experience for more than ten years, and he didn't pay much attention to many things in his previous life, but he just heard relevant news from others. And as time passes, these memories will become more and more blurred, and they are written out just to deepen their impressions, and by the way, to brush up their chaotic thoughts.
It's hard to say which ones will be used, so we can only take one step at a time.
After squatting under the sun for less than half a minute, Zhou Fangyuan couldn't stand it anymore, and the fireball above his head was inevitably too strong.
According to the TV station, the average temperature of this summer is said to be the highest temperature in Beitong City in decades, although it cannot be compared with the well-known cities in the land of China known as "furnaces", but in his memory, he has never experienced such a hot and hot weather in his two lives, so it really heats him up.
Because his yard is on the edge of the Gan River, he can hear the sound of village children playing on the river beach when he sits at home. If it was in the past, Zhou Fangyuan couldn't help but rush out and make trouble with other friends, but now, he looked at the sunburned walls in the yard, thought about it, and still didn't dare to run out.
Although the home is stuffy, it is better than being exposed to the sun directly.
Turn around and run to the kitchen, light a fire to boil water, throw the washed mung beans and white sugar into the kettle, and finally flush in the boiling water, and the preparation of the mung bean soup is completed. Then back in the bedroom, Zhou Fangyuan took out the textbooks of the third year of junior high school from the drawer of the desk, and reviewed them little by little, starting from the first year of junior high school.
In his previous life, his academic performance was so rubbish that he couldn't read it, not because he had a bad brain, but because he didn't study hard at all. Since you want to make up for your regrets in this life, it is definitely worth coming up with a score that makes your parents proud. No matter how much money they can make, parents are always most concerned about their children's learning status.
Those who were no longer concerned about learning after being reborn, but put all their minds on making money, Zhou Fangyuan didn't know what they thought, anyway, he felt that making his parents happy must be all-round. It's not enough to be rich, you also have to be good enough to make others give a thumbs up when they mention it.
Fortunately, junior high school students in this era are not too difficult to do their homework. What's more, Zhou Fangyuan has the soul and thinking of an adult with richer life experience, so the part that was very difficult to understand when he was in school is undoubtedly much easier this time. A lot of jerky ancient texts, now it seems, there are many places that can be understood at once.
Before you know it, the afternoon is passing and the sun is setting and the temperature is starting to drop.
When the pointer pointed to six o'clock, there was a sudden sound at the courtyard door, and then the gate was pushed open, and Zhou's father and Zhou's mother walked in with a bicycle.
