Chapter 8: Coercion and Inducement
In the days that followed, Lin Hong became almost a regular visitor to the scrap yard, and on the one hand, he continued to dig out the components he needed in the scrap heap to contribute to his first "ore radio", and on the other hand, he did not stop learning about this professional knowledge.
He often went to Lao Xu Tou every few days to borrow a tome and gnaw it day and night, and his knowledge of electronic appliances was also rapidly enriched.
Although Lao Xu Tou felt very strange that he kept borrowing all kinds of books, he never asked anything, but he gave Lin Hong more authority and specially assigned him a key, so that when he was not at home when he had something to do, Lin Hong could also go to him to borrow books to read.
Lao Xu Tou asked Lin Hong a few times how the progress of the ore radio was, and at that time, Lin Hong often scratched his head and replied embarrassedly, it was still being debugged.
Although Lao Xu Tou asked him many times if he didn't understand something, Lin Hong was embarrassed to trouble him, anyway, there was all this knowledge in the books, and he was willing to solve it by reading books.
In order to prevent teachers and classmates from focusing too much on himself, he gradually learned the golden mean, which was no longer so special, and his homework began to be done on time, and he no longer handed in blank papers in exams.
Of course, the accuracy of the questions was within his control, and he gradually climbed from the last place to the bottom 10th position, and then began to fluctuate up and down from time to time.
Time passed imperceptibly, and Lin Hong was already nine years old, and he successfully entered the third grade without any controversy. Compared to other peers, Lin Hong didn't feel the slightest feeling, because no matter day or night, he was completely immersed in the magical electronic world, greedily and thirstily absorbing the nutrients of knowledge.
No, Lin Hong once again finished reading the "Principles of Communication", a tome with more than 500 pages, he came to the scrap yard early in the morning, and was planning to return the book to Lao Xu Tou, and then look for a cable in the waste electrical appliances to finally perfect his "ore radio".
Before he could speak, he heard Lao Xu Tou say first:
"Lin Hong, you came just in time, I'm going to the county seat today, you help grandpa take care of the house."
"Okay. Grandpa Xu, when are you coming back? ”
"Well, it could be tomorrow afternoon at the earliest." Old Xu Tou pondered for a moment, and then said, "If it's convenient for you at night, you can also live here." In this case, I will go and say hello to your father and ask him to help him find it. ”
Although a number of crackdowns have been severely cracked down on in the past few years, there are still some idle young people who think crookedly all day long and do not take the right path.
There are a lot of things in the scrap yard, although they are all scrap items, but they are also a lot of wealth in general. However, what Lao Xu Tou was worried about was not those things, but what he valued most was the cabinet of books and the radio station.
Lin Hong often runs this way, and his father Lin Changming knows it. I don't know why, the other party not only did not object, but agreed very much, he told Lin Hong many times not to be naughty and mischievous at Lao Xu Tou, and between words, he seemed to have great respect for Lao Xu Tou.
Later, Lin Changming found that Lin Hong often read books at home, and when he learned that those books were borrowed from Lao Xutou, he specially carried wine and meat, and went to the door to drink with Lao Xutou several times. Of course, as for the specific content of the book, Lin Changming has never paid attention to it.
Old Xu Tou left in a hurry, and Lin Hong's uncompetitive heart suddenly pounded. The first thought that came to his mind was to try Lao Xu Tou's very powerful radio station again.
After last time, although he had seen Lao Xu Tou stay by the radio many times and listen to other people's calls, he had never taken the initiative to respond. Since then, Lin Hong has never had the opportunity to contact this radio station alone, but he has always been worried about it.
Therefore, this time, Lao Xu Tou went far away, which was a great opportunity.
At this time, he was no longer the Amon of the past, and he had devoured many books on radio communications, so he already had some knowledge of the indicators and knobs on the radio panel.
With excitement, Lin Hong opened the door with the key, and then came to the radio.
Rao has a lot of basic knowledge, but in the face of such a complex operation panel again, Lin Hong still feels uneasy in his heart. He found the key and was about to turn on the radio, but suddenly someone shouted "Old Xutou" outside in his ears.
"Old Xu Tou - I'm not here~"
The voice was very loud, the voice was loud and high, and when the other party saw that there was no response, he shouted again:
"Old Xu Tou, where did he die?"
This time Lin Hong knew who it was, he glanced at the radio with some reluctance, got up and walked outside.
"Grandpa Sun." Lin Hong walked outside the house and shouted to the person who was scolding.
The person who came was the old grandson, the other party was still the same as before, wearing a big white coat on his upper body, and a pair of mille-feuille cloth shoes on his feet, although he was already old and of average height, but standing in the middle of the courtyard, Lin Hong saw a sharp spear, but there was a feeling of being tall and mighty.
"Lin Hong, boy, is that you? What about Old Xutou? The old grandson walked up to Lin Hong and stretched out his head to look into the room.
"Grandpa Xu has something to do today, and he went to the county seat."
"I actually went to the county seat... This old boy is really, didn't he make an appointment to play chess today? ”
The old grandson had a look of dissatisfaction on his face, and he ran here with great interest, but he didn't expect to pounce.
"Grandpa Xu said that he won't be able to come back until tomorrow afternoon at the earliest." Lin Hong was worried about the radio station in his heart, and secretly prayed that the old grandson would leave soon.
From the next village to here, the distance is not close, the old grandson is unwilling to run in vain, he touched the slag of his beard that is a little gray, and finally his eyes fell on Lin Hong, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
Lin Hong was a little panicked by his shining eyes, and quickly shifted his gaze. He always felt that this grandfather's eyes were a little frightening, and he always reminded him of the wolf dog in the village chief's house.
"Hehe, it doesn't matter if Old Xu Tou isn't there. Lin Hong, boy, you come to play chess with me. ”
When Lao Xu Tou was here, Lao Sun Tou almost didn't win at all, although the taste of losing every day was uncomfortable, but he couldn't help it, who made him take a good bite?
In their village, no one dared to play chess with him at all, and often when a glance passed, the other party would be so frightened that his legs would weaken and he would admit defeat directly. Only Lao Xu Tou dared to fight with him until his face was red and his neck was thick.
"I... I don't know how to play chess. Lin Hong hurriedly refused, he didn't want to stay with this old man, I don't know why, in front of him, he felt uncomfortable everywhere in his body.
The old grandson didn't care about this, grabbed Lin Hong, and said, "It's okay, I won't learn deliberately." Grandpa, I'm in a good mood today, so I'll hand you over to play chess. ”
Lin Hong hurriedly struggled, but where could he break free? Lao Sun's hand was like a vice, so he couldn't move for half a minute.
"Grandpa Sun, I really won't go down..."Lin Hong felt extremely aggrieved, and under the struggle, his wrist hurt terribly, and tears were about to flow out.
Seeing this, the old grandson raised his eyebrows, his face was pale, and he shouted:
"Don't cry!"
Lin Hong was suddenly stunned.
"Manly man, blood without tears!" Lao Sun had an old face and reprimanded loudly, "You were injured when you were a child, and your legs and feet were disabled, but it is precisely because of this that you should be more self-reliant!" In life, if you don't even look down on yourself, why do you want others to look down on you? If you want others to look up to you and become a master, you must first be self-confident and self-reliant! What is a disability? This is God's test for you, 'Heaven will descend on man, and he must first strain his heart and bones, starve his body and skin, and empty his body'......"
Old Xu Tou's words were like Huang Zhong Da Lu, echoing in Lin Hong's ears for a long time. Although he only knew a little about these words at the moment, they were deeply engraved in his heart and had a profound impact on his life afterwards.
After a long time, Lao Sun looked back and saw that Lin Hong had been frozen and did not speak, his mind was clear, and he also came back to his senses, and secretly said that he liked to reprimand people again.
So he hurriedly remedied without smiling: "Lin Hong, boy, look at this... I'll give you one in each rook and horse, and as long as you can win me, I'll teach you a way to make your legs and feet flexible. ”
Flexibility of your legs and feet?
Lin Hong didn't hear what the front meant specifically, but the second half of the sentence made his eyes light up.
"Really? Can it really make my legs flexible? He asked excitedly.
"Of course, how could Grandpa lie to you? Hehe, let's be honest, grandpa is a kung fu master, do you know kung fu? Whew! Ha! Drink! Saying that, the old grandson was afraid that Lin Hong would not understand, so he put on a few extremely powerful poses on the spot, and followed the dubbing in his mouth.
"Good!" Lin Hong agreed without hesitation, he stretched out his small right palm, and said, "A gentleman's word ......"
The old grandson was slightly stunned, then reacted, stretched out his right palm and slapped him, and responded:
"It's hard to chase a horse!"
Seek demons
