The first pot of gold
Before dawn in the morning, Fang Jing woke up.
When he opened his eyes, he found himself lying on his back on Fang Xiaole's small bed, looking at the cement ceiling above his head and stunned for a moment, then realized that this was at home, and Cen Jiu didn't know where to run.
Today, Friday, his brother Fang Xiaole can go home after class, he went to the city early, sold the emperor crab he touched yesterday, and just happened to pick up Fang Xiaole back.
Fang Jing got up, got dressed, pushed open the door and saw a figure moving in the dark courtyard.
Since absorbing that bead, Fang Jing found that his eyesight had also improved a lot, he used to have a little night blindness, but now he can actually see in the dark.
Cen Jiu was practicing in the courtyard, one move and one style were not fancy, but they were very clean and neat, even if Fang Jing didn't know martial arts, he felt that Cen Jiu's moves were faintly with a fierce momentum, and he was taking people's lives.
If yesterday Fang Jing was still a little suspicious of Cen Jiu's origin, then today Fang Jing almost believed that Cen Jiu was really the emperor's secret guard of the Great Qi Dynasty.
Almost the moment he pushed the door, Cen Jiu had already put away his palm, turned around, and looked at him through the thin morning mist.
Fang Jing yawned and said, "I'm going to the city today, you can pass the time by yourself." ”
The king crab caught yesterday had its chelicerae tied and thrown in a large bucket.
Half a bucket of water and seven or eight catties of crabs, Fang Jing was a little difficult to mention.
An arm reached out from behind him, lifting the bucket with ease. Cen Jiu was playfully carrying the bucket in his hand, looking at Fang Jing with a little indescribable love in his eyes.
Fang Jing suddenly had the illusion of being despised.
Their bucket is the kind of old-fashioned big wooden barrel, the bucket alone weighs three or four catties, and even the bucket with water plus the king crab can be less than fifty catties.
He has rarely done physical work since he went to college, isn't it normal that he can't carry it?
Cen Jiu helped Fang Jing carry the bucket to the station, and when the bus to the city came, Fang Jing lifted the bucket into the car with great difficulty, and said to Cen Jiu: "You go home first, I'll be back in the afternoon, do you remember the way home?" Follow the road, about five miles away, and then you can see a kiosk, cross the bridge at the kiosk and turn left, and then another mile away. ”
Cen Jiu looked at him and didn't speak.
I drove, there were not many people who went to the city in the morning, and the minibus only sat a few people, and I was surprised to see the cancer in the bucket.
"Good fellow, where did you catch such a big crab?"
The waters around this area have long been swept away by fishermen with nets, not to mention such a big crab, even small fish and shrimp are almost extinct.
"Well, I was lucky enough to touch it in the water yesterday, so I want to send it to the city today as soon as possible to sell it."
"No, we don't produce emperor crabs." An elderly uncle squinted and said.
"yes, that's why I was surprised when I saw it yesterday!" Fang Jing replied, "I don't know where it came from." ”
"It's really good luck, this crab can sell a lot, at least a thousand pieces."
It doesn't matter where this crab came from, it's all about making money.
The driver's uncle, who had been silent, suddenly said, "Hey, young man, is it your brother who has been running behind?" ”
Running along?
Fang Jing opened his eyes suddenly, he now had a psychological shadow on these three words. Turning his head to look behind the car window, he suddenly had black lines all over his head.
Cen Jiu, who originally told him to go home, was running behind the bus with a pair of slippers! The minibus has been driving for more than 20 minutes, and he can still keep up.
Fang Jing hurriedly said, "Master, stop." ”
Probably never seen such a miraculous thing, the driver stopped the car, leaned out of the window, happy, "You run quite fast, are you from an athlete's background?" ”
Fang Jing stood at the door of the car, beckoned to Cen Jiu, and said, "Didn't you go home?" ”
Cen Jiu looked at him fixedly and didn't speak.
Fang Jing rubbed his forehead, since he met this guy, he began to suffer from migraines.
"Forget it, you get in the car first." If you don't leave him alone, maybe this guy will follow him all the way to the city like he did yesterday.
It's a little fifty miles away!
Fang Jing pulled Cen Jiu to the last row and sat down. I woke up early today, a little sleepy, and after sitting down, I leaned back on the back of my seat and closed my eyes, and fell asleep after a while.
Although Cen Jiu has seen the magic of this kind of running box, it is the first time for him to take the car, and he is not on guard, and after getting in the car, he tenses his body and begins to "sigh" to release the air conditioner, his hands hang down on his waist, and he sits straight and straight, and the whole person is on guard all the time.
He put the air conditioner all the way, Fang Jing slept all the way, and it wasn't until he got out of the car that Fang Jing rubbed his eyes and woke up, and Cen Jiu walked in front of him with a bucket and got out of the car.
The two didn't go anywhere else, and went directly to a star-rated hotel near the station with buckets.
This thing is really a bit expensive, most people will not be willing to spend so much money to buy an emperor crab to eat, if you want to eat it is also to buy local pike crab, just a little smaller, the taste is also good, mainly cheap.
They were lucky, the first hotel they went to happened to have a wedding banquet the next day, the restaurant manager saw it, and directly asked people to take the king crab to the back kitchen, the price was 1,003, and Fang Jing settled the bill on the spot, and let Fang Jing have such good goods in the future, and directly mentioned the hotel.
Fang Jing got the money, he was very happy, and said to Cen Jiu, "Let's go, I'll invite you to dinner." ”
The manager is also very happy, tomorrow's wedding banquet is a well-known local nouveau riche, not bad money, as long as it has face.
He offered Fang Jing a price of 1,003 for this emperor crab, and it could be sold for more than 4,000 if it changed hands.
Fang Jing took Cen Jiu to have a breakfast and lunch, went to the hospital specially, found Fang's father's attending doctor, told Fang's father about his situation, and made an appointment for Fang's father to come for an examination next week.
When he came out of the hospital, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon, and Fang Xiaole was out of school at five o'clock.
Fang Jing and Cen Jiu rushed to the first city to wait for Fang Xiaole to get out of school.
"This is the school where my brother studied." Speaking of Junior Brother Fang, Fang Jing looked proud, "It's your private school, a place to study." This is the best middle school in our city, my brother didn't spend a penny, he was admitted by himself, and he was the first to take the exam. ”
Fang Jing said: "He hasn't finished school yet, I'll take you to the school for a walk." ”
Cen Jiu narrowed his eyes, looked at Fang Jing for a moment, and nodded.
Registered at the doorman's office, the two entered the school and walked slowly.
The No. 1 Middle School in the city is quite large, and the two of them walked around the library science and technology building and began to walk towards the teaching building.
When I came out of the science and technology building, I happened to meet Fang Xiaole's homeroom teacher, Mr. Li.
Fang's father can't walk, Fang's mother is busy, every time Fang Xiaole has something, Fang Jing goes, Teacher Li also knows Fang Jing, and he "pouts" when he sees him.
"Are you here to pick up Fang Xiaole?"
"Yes, there is something to do in the city, just to pick up Fang Xiaole and go home."
Teacher Li nodded: "Xiaole is a good student, it's a pity this time." ”
Fang Jing was stunned for a moment: "What's wrong with Xiaole?" ”
Teacher Li said a little regretfully: "You should think about the exchange students again, such an opportunity is really rare." ”
Fang Jing was confused: "What exchange student?" ”
Teacher Li was quite surprised: "What? You don't know? ”
"Xiaole never told us about it at all."
Teacher Li said: "This semester, the school has won a batch of places to go to the United States as exchange students for the next semester, and the junior high school originally recommended Xiaole to go, but Xiaole said that he couldn't go because of something at home. I know your family is a bit difficult, but this is really a good opportunity, and if you do well, you may be able to apply to local high schools or even universities abroad in the future. There is a big difference between the teaching method abroad and the domestic one, Xiaole's English foundation is good, which is a good exercise for him, if the table is good, it is possible to apply for a local high school in the future, and if Xiaole wants to study abroad in the future, this is also a good capital. And the tuition is all free, as long as you are responsible for Xiaole's living expenses and round-trip air tickets, you advise Xiaole to think about it again. ”
"Okay, Mr. Li, I understand, I will persuade Xiaole to think about it more, we will find a way to deal with money, thank you Mr. Li." Fang Jing sincerely thanked him.
If he hadn't met Mr. Li today, he wouldn't have known about it at all.
"It's okay, persuade Xiaole well." Teacher Li nodded understandingly.
Fang Xiaole walked out of the classroom with his schoolbag in his handbag, and saw his brother and Teacher Li standing in front of the teaching building talking at a glance, and trotted over just to hear the last sentence that Teacher Li and his brother said.
"Brother, don't think about it, I don't want to go." Fang Xiaole glanced at his brother and said sullenly.
Fang Xiaole is thirteen years old this year, has just entered the first year of junior high school, and is very good at studying. Fang Jing could be regarded as able to read back then, but compared to Fang Xiaole, it was still a big difference.
The little guy is very beautiful, with delicate eyebrows and eyes, others say that Fang Xiaole looks like Fang's mother, and it is said that Fang's mother was also one of the best in the village back then.
Fang Jing asked him with a smile: "Do you really don't want to go or are you worried that your family has no money?" ”
Fang Xiaole glanced at his brother, and then at Cen Jiu, who was standing behind his brother with a bucket with an indifferent expression, and stopped talking.
It looks like his bucket!
Fang Jing rubbed his head and said, "Teacher Li also said, the opportunity is rare, go if you want, don't worry about money, brother can make money." ”
Fang Xiaole glared at his brother, his brother's work in the broken museum, thousands of yuan a month, and he had to support his family, which was hard enough.
Glared at by his little eyes, Fang Jingle pinched his bulging cheeks, and said with a smile: "Yo, I don't believe your brother!" Your brother and I earned 1,003 in less than half an hour yesterday, don't worry, my brother will definitely be able to afford your study. ”
If it was said that before yesterday, Fang Jing was not sure at all, but now that he has that magical water bubble, he is now full of confidence in making money.
"Really?" Fang Xiaole's eyes widened.
"It can't be more real." Fang Jing patted his pocket and motioned for him to look at it himself.
Fang Xiaole grabbed his pocket, and sure enough, when he saw a stack of red tickets in his pocket, he was immediately overjoyed.
"If you insist, brother, then I'll reluctantly participate in the next semester's exchange students."
Fang Xiaole saw that his brother was happy, and he didn't want to go after walking two steps, so he jumped on Fang Jing's back and asked him to carry it.
"Ouch, baby, you're more than sixty pounds now, and you still think you're only three years old." Fang Jing walked a few steps on his back before he couldn't bear it.
Fang Xiaole hugged his neck, kept glancing at Cen Jiu from the corner of his eyes, and whispered, "Brother, is this your friend?" ”
Fang Jing held his little buttocks, pushed it up, and said, "Yes, his name is Cen Jiu, and you can do it with Brother Cen or Brother Jiu in the future." ”
"Brother Jiu." The child is very obedient to call people.
Cen Jiu put the bucket on the ground without saying a word, reached out and picked up Fang Xiaole from Fang Jing's back, threw it behind his back, bent back to support Fang Xiaole's waist with one hand, and walked forward steadily.
Fang Jing: "......"
At this time, it is not bad to have a powerful secret guard follower.
