Episode 272 Twists and turns
He asked Song Liang to go with him to Xinjiang to find the deceased friend, and Zhang Gaogong calculated that according to the trajectory of the "Silver Camel" meteorite, he could roughly determine the location of the boulder, and open a few more certificates, relying on the local government, herdsmen and forest police, it is estimated that there is no big problem.
Song Liang was a little hesitant, if he looked for it like this, it was estimated that there would be nothing for him to do at that time, wouldn't he be busy in vain.
Zhang Gaogong obviously saw his thoughts, and told Song Liang that he had covered all the travel expenses, and if the media reported it, Song Liang's name could be put in front of him at that time.
Song Liang thought for a while and agreed, he first made a phone call home, and then the three of them (and a teacher Lei from the planetarium) flew to Hohhot and then to Urumqi.
After getting off the plane, Song Liang asked Zhang Gaogong to borrow some money, Zhang Gaogong frowned, he hadn't even seen the meteorite yet, what was he borrowing money for? Could it be that he wanted to cheat some money to spend? The so-called help to find someone was a pretense?
Zhang Gaogong made an excuse and didn't give it, he still had to find out the situation.
The next day it snowed heavily, and it was impossible to go up the mountain to find meteorites in the near future.
Zhang Gaogong asked Song Liang why he hadn't seen his deceased friend.
Song Liang hurriedly contacted, but the other party was not in Urumqi at all, saying that it was the rain that blocked him on the road.
As soon as Song Liang told him about the situation, Zhang Gaogong immediately lowered his face, he came all the way to Xinjiang, but he didn't see anyone, didn't he take him for a fool!
Song Liang is also dumb and eats Coptis chinensis, he can't say what he suffers, he thought about it, and thought of a meteorite friend, and hurriedly said to Zhang Gaogong that he could go to Mr. Tong, Mr. Tong is a famous star seeker in the meteorite world, many people in the meteorite world know him, and if you find him, you should be able to find a boulder.
Zhang Gaogong was silent, he had known Mr. Tong for a long time, and he didn't need Song Liang's introduction at all, which deepened his judgment that Song Liang purely wanted to get some money to spend.
Zhang Gaogong immediately was not polite to Song Liang, he called Song Liang to his and Mr. Lei's room, and said to Song Liang: "We came to Xinjiang this time to travel together, and we will take care of our own travel expenses, food and lodging, and we will be personally responsible for accidents." ”
When Song Liang heard this, he was immediately dumbfounded, and he couldn't find the north at that time, how could such a thing happen in the world, and if he had said this to him in Beijing, would he still come to Xinjiang? Obviously he had said that Zhang Gaogong would be responsible for the travel expenses, but this was not a blatant bully? However, in the face of the ruthless Zhang Gaogong, Song Liang was puzzled.
For the sake of the boulder, which was only one step away, Song Liang agreed to Zhang Gaogong's conditions against his will.
Zhang Gaogong saw Song Liang compromise, afraid that he would regret it, and said that he had to set up a document, or something really happened, it would be troublesome, and if there was no evidence, how could he explain it to Song Liang's family.
At this time, the frontier was not very peaceful, and there were destabilizing incidents from time to time, so Zhang Gaogong's move was not superfluous.
At this time, Song Liang had only two choices: one was to go home, and the other was to accept the conditions.
When he went home, the meteorite slice was gone, and the boulder didn't want to be found, and his family was very disgusted with his action of looking for the boulder for more than a year, so how could he explain it to his family when he went back?
For the sake of the boulder, Song Liang had to sign his name, at this time his mind was blank, Zhang Gaogong packed up the notes, and asked Song Liang to pack up his things and walk with him to a roadside shop - this is an old building, the condition is very poor, Zhang Gaogong said to him: "You live here, I will help you settle the cost of living here." ”
After all, Zhang Gaogong was at a loss, and finally found a place for Song Liang to live.
Subsequently, Zhang Gaogong said to Song Liang that Teacher Tong would call him as soon as he came back.
He and Mr. Lei are still staying at the Xinyun Hotel with security, and it will be good to come to him when the time comes.
Back to the Xinyun Hotel, the more Zhang Gaogong thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, this time, it seemed that the whole thing was a trap, the people who should have seen it did not see, and now the snow is covering the mountain, and nothing can be done, so it is better to go back.
As soon as he and Mr. Lei talked, the other party also agreed, and the two of them packed up and prepared to return to the capital early the next morning.
was about to go out, but was blocked by Song Liang at the door.
"Where do you want to go?"
Song Liang asked.
"The unit just called and said that there was an important meeting to be held, so let's go back first. ”
"When will you be back?"
Song Liang was dumbfounded when he heard this, and hurriedly asked.
"The time is not set yet, and I will contact you again when the time comes. ”
Zhang Gaogong came up with a delaying plan.
About 5 minutes after Zhang and Lei left, Song Liang remembered that they were leaving, Zhang Gaogong did not lend him money, this time he came out in a hurry, he was already shy, he immediately called Zhang Gaogong, and said that when he came out of home, he did not plan to come to Xinjiang directly from the capital, hoping that Zhang Gaogong could lend him money to save the emergency.
Zhang Gaogong was glad that he left in time, and only replied: "I'm sorry, we have entered the plane hall, you can figure it out yourself." ”
Song Liang knew very well that he had only walked for less than a few minutes, so how could he have arrived at the airport? Except by taking a rocket, he could not get to the airport so quickly from the Xinyun Hotel.
But he is helpless, the current frontier is very chaotic, you can see on the street, the main street is three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry, which is very abnormal.
Song Liang didn't live in this small shop, and there were many people who came to disturb him for some reason, he bought a chicken, and a young man put a bottle in front of him and said, "Drink"! Before he came to his senses, half of the chicken had gone, what kind of wine was this, it was actually boiled water!
The 1800 yuan mobile phone is also gone, and the wallet is also lost, fortunately, there is only 200 yuan in the wallet, and the rest of the money is in the underwear, but it is not enough, Song Liang's first thought is to leave immediately, because it is very dangerous here, and I don't know what will happen.
Song Liang bought a mobile phone with 170 yuan of the little money left, and charged 50 yuan for the phone bill, he called Mr. Tong as soon as possible and asked him if he had come back.
Mr. Tong said that he was back, but it was so heavy that he couldn't go up the mountain.
Song Liang had no choice but to truthfully inform Mr. Zhang Gao that Mr. Gongtong had returned, but he could not go up the mountain.
When Zhang Gaogong heard Song Liang's narration, he called Mr. Tong again, and finally confirmed that the incident was true, and he blamed Song Liang wrongly.
He told Song Liang to go back to the capital first!
Song Liang could only take the train back to Beijing, and when he arrived in Beijing, he only had 40 yuan left in his trouser pocket. To continue to eat and stay in the capital, he had no choice but to disregard his face and give Zhang Gaogong an invoice of 480 yuan from a small shop in Urumqi, hoping that he could help reimburse him to solve his urgent needs.
When it came to money, Zhang Gaogong's original good impression of Song Liang disappeared.
He reimbursed 500 yuan, claiming that it was his own money.
When Song Liang asked what to do next? Zhang Gaogong said with a dark face that his information was all fake, and he and Mr. Lei were deceived into going to Xinjiang but couldn't see anyone, so don't mention this matter again!
