Chapter 92: Bet with my brother-in-law
Of course, Li Jun didn't believe Chen Shi's words, he thought that Chen Shi must not want to tell himself. At this time, Li Jun's attitude towards Chen Shi has changed one hundred and eighty degrees, he was very annoying before, and he was not bad at treating him in front of his sister, but now his attitude is worship. At his age, it happened to be the time to worship heroes, although Chen Shi denied his behavior, but Li Jun has always seen Chen Shi's every action, so he has to admire.
Before, he had always refused to call Chen Shi's brother-in-law, although he was called by Chen Shi's cliché once, but he was very unwilling in his heart, but now he was willing, and full of reverence, he shouted in the town: "Brother-in-law, just tell me, are they your subordinates? Why do they listen to you? How powerful are you?"
Chen Shi smiled slightly and said: "You have always been with me, don't you believe your eyes? When did you see me called someone? When did I say that they were my brothers? When did I say that they were my subordinates? You see, now they have no respect for me, how can I be their eldest brother?"
Li Jun thought to himself, and what he said was right, he had been with his sister and brother-in-law all along, and he never had to see him call someone, he didn't even need to make a phone call, how could he have called so many people at once? So who else could it be that he hadn't called? Without him having to think about it, he immediately had an answer, and the only answer was Taozi.
Although Tao Zi has only been in the county seat to open an Internet café for only a month, his reputation is not small, especially the students who often surf the Internet in the Internet café worship Tao Zi very much, Li Jun wanted to look up to Tao Zi before, but now he actually found that he and Tao Zi are on an equal footing, which makes him excited, the most important thing is that all this is because of his brother-in-law. This made him have a lot more affection for his brother-in-law Chen Shi.
"Is it Brother Tao Zi's call?" Although he knew the general idea, he still had to ask clearly.
Chen Shi nodded and said: "Taozi has a wide network, and it is not a big deal to call a dozen brothers to support the field, this is not a matter of killing people and setting fires, but just gathering people to drink some wine." ”
Li Jun was dumbfounded, listening to his brother-in-law call such an exciting and dangerous thing to gather a crowd to drink, which completely subverted his worldview, as if, in the eyes of his brother-in-law, they were just joking, playing house, and in the end, the big deal was to drink a meal to solve it, and there was no big deal. In Li Jun's view, this is an earth-shattering thing, but in the eyes of his brother-in-law, it is just a trivial matter, so what is the scale of the serious matter in the eyes of his brother-in-law?
"What, isn't it?" Chen Shi asked when he saw that he was surprised.
Li Jun was dumbfounded, and was stunned for a moment before replying, "No...... It's not, it's just ...... But isn't this drinking scene too big?"
Chen Shi laughed and said, "What are you afraid of? It's not that you pay for it, you don't have to worry, just watch the play on the sidelines, but now that the scene is over, it's time to go back." He didn't want Li Jun to get involved with the gangsters, if he let Li Jun pull the banner of the tiger and cause trouble all day long in the name of others, it would not be his intention, so it was better to leave quickly.
As soon as he said that he was leaving, Li Jun was naturally unhappy, and retorted: "Brother-in-law, people have come to help us, isn't it okay to leave like this?" But he didn't expect at all that Chen Shi had never put these people in his eyes, he had never had anything to do with them, even the current Tao Zi rarely showed up, but today he had to do it as a last resort, otherwise, Tao Zi would rather make a phone call to solve it, and he didn't have to come forward at all, what a mysterious and chic thing it was, which was as annoying as it is now.
Chen Shi said: " It's okay, we are not all the way, naturally there is no need to deliberately put on a relationship, they have their rules and life, I have my rules and my standards, it is difficult for us to blend together, you are the same, you must know, you are still a student, and they are not all the way, don't let me find out that you have anything to do with them, even if this is the case, you don't have to talk nonsense outside, otherwise, people will take it seriously, when you are not a Jianghu person, you will become a Jianghu person, there is a saying that people can't help themselves in the rivers and lakes, and it will be too late for you to regret it。 ”
When Li Jun heard this, he was deflated like a ball, he had such a plan, but as soon as his brother-in-law objected, he didn't even have a chance, and in the future it was the same as before, nothing changed, he wanted to plead with his brother-in-law, but he couldn't open his mouth, he looked at his sister on the side, but was warned by his sister, which seemed to mean that you are dead! Otherwise, I will beat you to death.
Li Jun felt desperate, but no matter how desperate he was, it was useless to owe 100,000 yuan to others before, so he cheered up, followed his sister and brother-in-law out of the bar, and walked towards the Internet café. At this time, it was already eleven or twelve o'clock, in the dead of night, and there was no use for even a figure on the street, this kind of small county, most of the people were asleep at eleven or twelve o'clock, and I am afraid that only those couples or couples who were over-energetic were still tossing.
Except for this bar, the county has no nightlife, and even a supper stall is difficult to find, maybe there is, but they don't need to run into one along the way.
The cold wind is blowing slowly, there is a kind of cold that penetrates the bone marrow, due to the terrain, the wind does not use a fixed direction, it looks very messy, just want to stab people with countless knives, ruthless and accurate and fast, people are caught off guard, no matter who walks on the street will suffer. Going out on the streets at night in winter is a terrible thing, and Chen Shi swears that he will never come out again in winter, which is like hell.
Finally, the three of them walked to the Internet café, but found that the Internet café was still not warm, although there was no wind, but the Internet café was not equipped with air conditioning, and there were not so many people who chartered the night at night, so the room was a little cold. Chen Shi thought about it, and simply took his sister and brother to a nearby hotel. So, they just avoided the turbulent wind and stepped into the wind again, but this time they arrived at their destination quickly, because the Internet café is near a neighborhood with a relatively large flow of people, and there will naturally be no shortage of hotels here.
The three of them opened two rooms, Chen Shi took his brother-in-law to live in one, and Li Yalian lived in one by herself. After separating from Li Yalian, the two men talked a lot more than before, it should be said that it was a man with a boy, and Li Jun was only fourteen or fifteen years old.
"Brother-in-law, how did you and my sister meet?" brother-in-law Li Jun has more questions than Li's father and mother, and he is more careful, from their understanding and interaction, he has to ask a clear understanding without exception, which makes Chen Shi a little caught off guard, and feels that his brother-in-law is a little tricky.
However, this little thing did not bother him, he first fooled for a while, and then criticized harshly: "What are you doing so clearly? In Chen Shi's eyes, Li Jun is of course a child, but Li Jun has never been his own child.
He said, "Brother-in-law, you are my brother-in-law, and this little problem will be difficult for you? If you don't say it, I will tell my sister tomorrow that you are bullying me." ”
Chen Shi smiled, this brother-in-law is so cunning, why didn't he find out in his previous life? Maybe they have too little time together, and they don't need to get along alone at all, or they just know each other in their previous life, and they don't need to understand each other at all, and they know each other from other people's mouths.
Chen Shi is not afraid of threats, and he understands Li Yalian, Li Yalian will not easily believe Li Jun's words, so he said fearlessly: "Although you say, lies are never tenable, a lie has to be fulfilled with hundreds of lies, how many lies can you make up? I don't believe that your sister is an unreasonable person, and when the time comes, he will expose it, don't blame me for being ruthless and unjust." ”
Li Jun angrily did nothing to deal with him, but after a while, Li Jun regained his fighting spirit, and said: "Okay, I don't have to ask about your affairs, but if you want to marry my sister peacefully, you must agree to one condition." ”
For the brother-in-law, of course, he couldn't do too much, so Chen Shi asked with a smile: "What conditions?" ”
Li Jun thought that he had succeeded in his treacherous plan, and said with a smile: "I want to go online, and you will pay for it in the future, didn't you open the Internet café?" Therefore, in the future, I must come to the Internet for free, and sometimes I will invite friends to come, and you will also give me face." ”
This guy has learned to bargain, Chen Shi is secretly funny in his heart, he only thinks that the brother-in-law's thinking is funny and naïve. He said: "It's not impossible to go online, but I also have a condition, if you agree, then don't say invite a few friends, even if you invite all your classmates to the Internet café, I will give you face." ”
Li Jun was overjoyed and hurriedly asked, "Really?"
Chen Shi said with a smile: "As long as you can be admitted to the first grade, I will promise you all your requirements, otherwise, if you play games and delay your studies, won't your sister want to beat me to death, who do you say in front of you and your sister? This question is not difficult at all, I believe you are also very clear." ”
Li Jun was like a mortal dust from the sky, as if a basin of cold water had been poured on his head, making him unable to raise his head, and the previous excitement and previous happiness were all turned into ashes.
"Why? can't you do it?" Chen Shi looked at his dejected appearance, and felt a little unbearable, so he took a step back and said: "I take a step back, I don't need to be the first in the age, as long as I am the first in the class, you can get the first place in the class, I will agree to your request, how about it?"
Although the gap between the first in age and the first in the class is very large, it is so unattainable for Li Jun, he has never had to think in that direction, he has never had to look up at that height, and at this time he has to raise his feet and walk up, obviously embarrassing him.
However, Chen Shi knows that people are forced out, if he is not forced to work hard now, then his life will be over like this in the future, if he gives up now, then the first thing he thinks of when he encounters difficulties in the future is to retreat, instead of facing difficulties. It is forty or fifty years old, it is a good time to cultivate character, in the countryside, no one has ever paid attention to these things, students learn all by consciousness and teacher supervision, but the teacher's time is limited after all, not compared to the big city, there is no teacher and family, parents are cultural people, naturally know the importance of reading, naturally will urge children to learn, family education is very critical.
Rural parents do not know the importance of reading, but they do not have the time, ability, and energy to teach their children, so it has caused an educational gap between urban and rural areas, and this gap is only the first point in thousands of thousands.
Chen Shi is a farmer's son, but he doesn't want his son to be a farmer, he has the ability, and naturally he doesn't want the people around him to live in the countryside, so as long as the people around him are still studying, he hopes that they can have a good future, and he doesn't want them to abandon their studies and give up on themselves.
The economy is developing, the gap between urban and rural areas is also widening, although he is a farmer, he does not want to continue to follow his parents' example of digging in the land, he must seize the opportunity to integrate into this trend of great development, and this opportunity is not known to him is his own opportunity, the people around him hope that they can have a good background, hope that they can get rid of the dependence on the land.
"Think about it, if you can't do this little thing, what big things can you do in the future?" Chen Shi saw that Li Jun was silent, obviously his confidence was hit, so he deliberately provoked him.
Li Jun didn't react, and Chen Shi said again: "Do you think that you are stupider than others, and think that you are not as smart as others? People carry one head on two shoulders, and you don't have any defects, so you think that you are inferior to others? Are you so willing to be mediocre? So inferior?"
Li Jun suddenly raised his head, his eyes were full of anger, but he could see that there was something called combat effectiveness in his anger, there was a fighting spirit, he was unwilling, useless people were willing to be mediocre, useless people were considered inferior, he had to find some possibility to refute, he had to find something to do, he had to learn to say no, and he couldn't bow his head under the oppression of fate.
"Okay, that's it. He solemnly replied to Chen Shi's conditions, this is his promise, it is his promise to himself, no matter what, he will not live up to his promise, and he believes that he is not a stupid person, not worse than others, believe in himself. He secretly shouted in his heart countless times to believe in himself, and at this time he made up his mind, so he must do it, and he must not let others down.
Chen Shi was very happy, patted him on the shoulder and said: "This is like a man, but a man's words have to count, and this semester can not be counted, but starting next year, if you don't reach the first place in the class, I will not only let you enter the Internet café, but also urge you to endorse and do your homework until you reach your goal." ”
Li Jun also said: "If a man's words count, you must also count, if you don't count when you speak, I won't agree to you being with my sister even if I die." ”
Chen Shi smiled, and he said, "I'll open a machine for you tomorrow, so that you can play enough, but after tomorrow, you'll be ready to learn!"
Li Jun almost jumped up after hearing this, and called Chen Shi's brother-in-law three times in a row, which made Chen Shi happy. The two fell asleep quietly after playing for a while, and the next morning it was Li Yalian who came to wake them up.
The brother-in-law's matter was solved safely, and the second generation of the official named Wang Yiming was actually nothing remarkable, just a guy who pulled the banner of the tiger's skin, and he was honest after being scared by Tao Zi and his brothers. Tao Zi told Chen Shi that those brothers were very satisfied yesterday and just wanted to see him, but unfortunately he was gone, so he was a little regretful, saying that he must see him next time.
Chen Shi didn't want to have anything to do with them, so he asked Tao Zi, "How deep is your relationship with them?"
Tao Zi said with a smile: "Wine and meat friends, I look for them to do something, of course I have to give some benefits, otherwise they won't come, so it doesn't matter if you don't see them, so it's okay, everything has nothing to do with you, you are a person who does big things, it's best not to have anything to do with them, otherwise, if you are found out in the future and accused of being an underworld, then you will jump into the Yellow River and you can't wash it." ”
Chen Shi smiled and said: "You are the same, it is best to cut off contact with them, although the Internet café needs some reputation in the rivers and lakes to deter, but this method cannot be put on the table after all, we still have to be more formal, and after a period of time, you will directly enter the provincial capital, where the public security conditions are good, and there is no need for this kind of trick, when the time comes, you will be responsible in the past, and completely dissociate from this side." ”
Tao Zi was surprised: "What about county-level cities? You won't give up these places, right?"
Chen Shi smiled: "How can you give up? This is a piece of fat, I can't hurry up, how can I give up easily?"
Tao Zi didn't understand Chen Shi's thoughts, if he left, who would be responsible? Ah Hui asked, "Do you want Ah Hui to be responsible?"
Chen Shi shook his head and said, "Everyone who follows me can't get involved in the nature of the underworld in the future." Don't worry, as long as we become bigger, we don't need to be deterred by the reputation on the rivers and lakes, as long as we are big enough, then whether it is black or white, we must be afraid of three points, others are afraid of you, and you don't go to others to make trouble, won't this be safe?"
Tao Zi's thinking is still in a small pattern, he can't see what kind of means should be used after becoming bigger and stronger, thinking that relying on the reputation mixed in the rivers and lakes can deter a lifetime, in fact, this kind of thinking is very wrong, a real large group, not relying on a little trick to fool people, but has his own invincible, immeasurable strength, whether it is an individual or a collective in front of it must be afraid, so that it can be regarded as a real large group.
Of course, Chen Shi is still far from this goal, but he clearly knows that if he has enough energy, not to mention the little rascals/hooligans, even the first and second leaders in the county will not dare to do anything to him.
