Chapter 51: The Frost of the New Year (1)
Caption: The words of "The Book of Songs, the First Month of the South Mountain": "The first month is frosty, and my heart is sad. The people's rumors are also the generals of Kong. ”
......
Since the reform and opening up, making a fortune has become a goal pursued by people. But in the early days, there were not many ways to get rich, because people's attitudes had not changed. The so-called state-owned units and iron rice bowls are still people's first choice. The first to make a fortune were the unemployed vagrants who had no formal jobs before and were forced to become self-employed.
Earlier, the state also had a regulation that the government could appropriately exempt those released from the "two labors" if they were self-reliant and started their own business. This is really a good thing that later businessmen could never dream of.
Of course, for ordinary people, there are not many opportunities to get rich, and the concept of getting rich is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. At least, Ye Ziyu's mother was deeply moved this time.
Therefore, when Ye Ziyu came home from school during the winter vacation of his sophomore year, his mother said to him that tomorrow the City Sports Center will hold a sports lottery ticket on-site sale, that is, he will win, and the grand prize is an Otto car or 80,000 yuan in cash, which is not a small amount. At the same time, he took out 200 yuan and asked him to buy a lottery ticket tomorrow.
Ye Ziyu was very curious, her mother was usually quite frugal, this time the sun came out of the west? Later, her mother said that the unit was talking about buying lottery tickets these days, especially a female colleague named Xiao Jia, who told her mother with high interest that the wide winning rate and the high amount of the grand prize this time were unprecedented, and she would definitely go when she asked for leave. The mother listened a lot, and it was inevitable that she would not be infected by the passion of the people.
Ye Ziyu was naturally happy, and thought: Two yuan for a lottery ticket, if you buy fifty tickets yourself, you can still have a hundred yuan left in your pocket quietly. If you're really lucky enough to hit the jackpot, you'll be in good hands.
On the second day, Ye Ziyu asked Lu Yuhao to go to the City Sports Center. The weather was very bad on this day, cold, frost in the morning, and the road was slippery. When they walked to the People's Road, they were shocked by what they saw. I saw that on both sides of the road and on the overpass, the crowd was full of people, rubbing shoulders one after another, and they were actually moving in one direction, and the hot atmosphere was in stark contrast to the temperature of winter. Ye Ziyu asked Lu Yuhao: "Are so many people going to buy lottery tickets?"
Lu Yuhao nodded and said, "I think so, people's goals are the same as ours." ”
Ye Ziyu said with a smile: "The army is not so uniform, this is a fall out of the city, it is estimated that since ancient times, the citizens of Jincheng have not been so united in resisting invasion, this can simply go down in history." ”
After coming to the sports center, the two were even more dumbfounded, it turned out that it was already crowded with people. The huge playground was full of people, and the staff selling lottery tickets were tightly surrounded by the crowd at the core. Such a scene also surprised the organizers, and the preparation work was suddenly insufficient, and the passage that was originally fenced off with iron railings had already been squeezed down by people. People rushed to the staff, holding banknotes in their hands, shouting desperately, scrambling to buy first. And the staff is in a hurry but doesn't know whose money to take first. Ye Ziyu realized that his original idea of only wanting to buy fifty lottery tickets was unrealistic. Because the crowd has gone crazy, people are desperately waving banknotes to grab lottery tickets, as if every ticket is a jackpot, and it is a million profits. Therefore, the staff simply stopped selling the lottery tickets in bulk, and sold the whole box and the whole box, a box of 100 tickets.
There is more funny at the door, a young man standing on a high place, deliberately shirtless on a cold day, wearing a boat-shaped hat folded with newspaper, the five fingers of his right hand are open, pinching a few boxes of lottery tickets, his left hand is taken out one by one, one by one is stretched out to his mouth, and he tears open the scratch area with his teeth. Ye Ziyu laughed, seeing that this guy had torn dozens of photos in a row, and all of them spit on the ground, the more depressed he became. He finally went crazy, relying on his youth and strength, and took out the anger of tens of millions of people, forced the crowd, squeezed to the staff, and without saying a word, handed two hundred-dollar bills to the staff and received a box of lottery tickets.
After receiving the lottery ticket, Ye Ziyu felt the pleasure of receiving the jackpot in his heart. But when he turned around, he found that it was difficult for him to get out. People who didn't get their tickets are still squeezing forward. He could have squeezed to the front just now, but he had to withdraw against the trend, don't even think about it. At this time, Lu Yuhao couldn't see the figure for a long time. Ye Ziyu was crowded, but there was nothing he could do, he looked around and saw that the stairs leading to the stands on the second floor of the stadium were in front of him, and there was no one on it. He simply squeezed over, climbed over the crooked railing, climbed up the corridor on the second floor, and walked to the other end. There weren't many people on this end, but there were no stairs to go down. Ye Ziyu was impatient, and he didn't have time to think about it, so he bowed down and simply jumped from the second floor.
This jump is a bad thing. The corridor on the second floor was more than three meters high from the ground, Ye Ziyu jumped down in his big scalp boots, only to hear a bang, his feet fell to the ground, and then there was a heart-piercing pain in his left heel. When he saw that the people around him were watching him, he pretended to be indifferent and walked to the side of the road without changing his face. But after he walked two steps, he fell to the ground with his buttocks, and his tears were about to come out in pain, and he couldn't stand up again.
Ye Ziyu moved to the edge of the street and sat down, took off his boots and socks, and carefully checked the soles of his feet, but he couldn't see anything unusual, and his heels were not as painful as before. He put on his shoes and socks and tried to stand up, but his left foot was not affected at all, his body was crooked, and his butt fell to the ground. He had no choice but to take off his shoes and socks again and look over the soles of his feet. He pressed his fingers against the heel of his left foot, and a bone-chilling pain came over him, causing him to break out in a cold sweat. At this time, he suddenly heard Lu Yuhao's laugh and ask, "What are you doing sitting here?
It turned out that Lu Yuhao saw that there were many people, and he was not as heroic as Ye Ziyu, so he didn't squeeze in at all, and stood outside to watch the excitement. As a result, he was squeezed out of Ye Ziyu's person in a few clicks. After searching for a long time, I finally found out how he was sitting on the side of the street. Ye Ziyu told him with a bitter face that he couldn't stand up. After Lu Yuhao asked the reason, he immediately became worried and complained about what kind of hero he was. The two of them asked and answered like this, and the people standing on the side also listened to it, and they suddenly felt funny. Lu Yuhao beckoned a human-powered tricycle to come over, helped Ye Ziyu jump into the car, and ran towards the orthopedic hospital. Ye Ziyu's left foot was just weak to stand up, and it wouldn't hurt very much if he didn't touch it. After getting on the tricycle, he took out the box of lottery tickets from his bag and said, "One person will open half of it, and I will win the jackpot for six and you four!"
Lu Yuhao scolded with a smile: "Why the hell have you become a wealth fan who doesn't know whether to live or die?"
The two of them began to scratch the prize with great interest, but Ye Ziyu's face became more and more ugly. He took the lead in scratching all the lottery tickets in his hand, and he didn't hit any of them! Seeing that Lu Yuhao still had unscratched ones in his hand, he snatched them again. But after all 100 tickets were scratched, only one tail prize was won. The prize for the final prize is: you can get another ticket! There is no cruel thing in the world than the complete extinction of hope. At this time, Ye Ziyu's foot pain is nothing, but the heart pain is really painful!
Lu Yuhao sent Ye Ziyu to the hospital, hurriedly went to the window to register, and then went to the consultation room. The doctor asked the reason, but without saying a word, he asked Ye Ziyu to take a CT first. This film, hundreds of yuan went in again. After the shooting, the two waited in the hospital corridor for a long time before the doctor came out with the film, pointed to a bone and said to Ye Ziyu: "The heel bone is cracked in a small 'V' shape, do you still want to stand up?" After speaking, he prescribed the medicine and asked them to get the medicine. He also told Ye Ziyu to recuperate for three months, and after the bones healed, he would walk as usual.
Ye Ziyu complained repeatedly, three months, school has started, this is a joke.
