Chapter 195: Old Shi's Past
At the end of the words, Shi Ziting's father took a pack of Chinese cigarettes in his pants pocket, he bit one in his mouth, smoked one and handed it to Chu Hui, Chu Hui took the cigarette into his hand, Shi Ziting's father reached over to help Chu Hui light the cigarette, and the two began to swallow the clouds and spit out the fog.
Friendship between men sometimes comes much faster than women, as long as you drink a glass of wine, light a cigarette, play a few games, a few brothers are considered to know each other, although they will not say how much help they can make, how much effort they make, but when they need it, at least there is someone who can ask.
"Teacher Chu Hui looks at you and you are not very old, and it is strange and polite to call me 'Shi Ziting Dad' all the time, just call me Lao Shi in private, don't be so polite. After all, Atin is still a student of a private college, and with a hood in your hands, you have to take care of everything. You are so polite to me, I am really aggrieved in my heart. Lao Shi smiled, put the cigarette in his hand, and lit it on the ashtray.
"Okay, then I'll call you Lao Shi in private, you don't have to call me Teacher Chu Hui, just call me Ah Hui, and you don't need to be commensurate with each other. Chu Hui now understands why many teachers are reluctant to come to the parent committee, usually coax you, give some gifts at the end of three days, let you take more care, the child is wronged and his face becomes faster than turning a book, eating other people's candy, and not doing other people's good things, isn't this conscienceless?
Therefore, instead of taking more responsibility for students, it is better to turn a blind eye and get more benefits.
Chu Hui took a deep breath, smoke spewed out of his snort, he pinched the ash of his cigarette, and said, "I've been sitting here for a while, let's get down to business, since I'm here to visit the house, then first I have to know some things about Shi Ziting." How much do you know about his gambling? I also heard some voices from the words of the people around me before I came, at least on the surface, Lao Shi, you have provided him with gambling money. ”
"I actually brought out his gambling. Lao Shi drooped his face, and as the topic began to become heavy, the spiritual energy on his face disappeared, and was replaced by a sad face, Lao Shi took a deep breath of cigarette, "Ah Hui, what do you think of my house?"
"It's very tasteful, and I can see that you have put a lot of thought into it. Chu Hui commented that the decoration style of Shi Ziting's house is still very much liked by him personally. When he was abroad, his master's house was also decorated in this way, but the quaint taste was a little heavier.
"The reason why I have my current company, and the reason why I have the bricks to build this house, is because of gambling. Lao Shi pressed the cigarette on the ashtray, crushed the cigarette butt, he looked at Chu Hui and said: "More than ten years ago, like many gamblers, I dreamed of making a fortune from gambling, and then I was burdened with a bunch of debts, and finally my family was ruined. Atting's mother ran away when I was in debt of 150,000 yuan, leaving me and Atin alone. ”
More than ten years ago, Chu Hui estimated that he was still in primary school and kindergarten in China, but he vaguely remembered that things were very cheap at that time, and the price of the house was not the sky-high price it is today.
Recalling the hard days of the year, Lao Shi, the old gambler, smiled bitterly, and he said: "My wife ran away, even if I was a waste, I owed 150,000 yuan in debt at that time, even if I put 50,000 yuan in loan sharks now, it was possible to destroy a family, let alone in that period." However, I didn't wake up, I still had to continue gambling, I wanted to earn back all the gambling debts I owed before at the table, I was working in the construction site at that time, and the money I earned after moving bricks for three days was partly used to live, partly kept to pay off the debts, and the rest was all on the table. ”
"If you were a casual worker, you wouldn't have a job to do every day, at that time, I was with Atin and I only had one dollar in my pocket when I was the poorest, and then I bought two buns with one dollar, and the two fathers and sons ate one for each other, and served as three meals a day. Lao Shi took out a piece of white rabbit toffee from the snack box on the table, he twisted the outer package, put it in his mouth, and the taste of industrial toffee and the hard taste spread in his mouth.
"As I lost more and more, I began to discover the routine at the table, if I made a thousand I would have to chop off my fingers, so what if three out of four people made a thousand? What if I was hired by the casino to pay a thousand? And then I made my first pot of gold in this way. The corners of Lao Shi's mouth turned up, and he seemed to be a little proud, "But I know that even this is very dangerous for me, so on the one hand, I take a shot and change a shot, and on the other hand, I am thinking of new ways to make money. ”
Listening to other people's stories, he naturally wanted to eat something, Chu Hui also took a handful of biscuits from the snack box and put them in his hand, tore open the packaging bag, the moderate saltiness of the biscuits on the tip of the tongue made Chu Hui frown, and then ate another slice, he looked at Lao Shi and analyzed his heart back then: "Once people enjoy the pleasure of making quick money, they will quickly fall into it, with your situation at that time, it is estimated that you are not willing to work hard, so Lao Shi, you gambled a lot?"
"When you are a boss, as long as you hook up a few words with your tongue, you can make hundreds or thousands of dollars, who wants to go to the construction site to move bricks again?" Lao Shi lowered his head and smiled, admitting his immature thoughts back then, "So in addition to leaving some guaranteed money, I went to Macau." ”
"At that time, I had been at the table for seven years, and if I just took the money to the table, the probability of losing was definitely 80%, and I looked everywhere and walked everywhere. I know that in this kind of place, I am also looking for death if I want to make money, I must use hard power, and finally I won a gamble with a rich businessman, and got the first pot of gold in my business, which is also the foundation of my current fortune. Lao Shi said proudly.
Chu Hui spread his hands, just chuckled, people who tell their own stories often tell everyone the ending when they open their mouths, no matter how twists and turns your story has, once the ending is clear, many things will be boring, "So after you have money, you feel that you have treated your son badly?"
