Chapter 216: Righteousness and Courage
"See which one has a big red diamond?" Zheng Ying jokingly asked Yang Bin.
"Not yet." Yang Bin replied to Zheng Ying, and then pulled the No. 19 rough stone in front of him.
Expose sesame seeds.
After praying in his heart, Yang Bin cut it down.
Inside are soybeans.
Abandon!
Number 20.
Expose the mung beans.
Open...... Mung bean...... Abandon!
Number 21.
Sesame.
This is...... No way!
Pigeon eggs!?
A red diamond the size of a pigeon's egg?
Yang Bin's heart jumped wildly.
I didn't have much hope, but I didn't expect a surprise to come suddenly.
He remembered that when he first gambled on stones, Wu Gang once said that such a big red diamond was worth millions or even tens of millions!
And the starting price of this stone is only 300,000.
It's not in vain today!
Yang Bin suppressed his excitement and cut open the last two stones, but found nothing. In other words, the only thing worth grabbing today is this 21st. Luckily, it's just a sesame seed, so it shouldn't attract much attention, right? The starting price is 300,000 yuan, no matter what, it should be able to be done within 1.5 million, right?
Yang Bin has 200,000 in his hand, plus 1.7 million in Zheng Ying's hand, a total of 1.9 million, and there should be no problem in taking it down.
However, it may be a bit troublesome to put it in the back, as there are no big red diamonds in the front, and the price of the remaining stones in the back will definitely be raised higher and higher.
However, having invested so many merit points, this 21st must be obtained! Otherwise, it's a big loss!
It should be said that Yang Bin's luck is a little back, this time the probability of a big red diamond is too low, under normal circumstances, more than 20 pieces of red diamond rough stones, two to three pigeon egg red diamonds are more normal. But no matter how much he comes out, Yang Bin can only take one at most. Taking one piece at a time is not very noticeable, and if several red diamonds are taken by him, it will cause suspicion and some unnecessary trouble.
To make money by using the official ethics system, we must also know how to stop in moderation, accept it when it is good, and not be too greedy.
After figuring out the situation, Yang Bin was relieved, and now he only waited for the afternoon auction to start.
"The boat capsized in the lake! Someone overboard! Suddenly, someone shouted, and everyone who was visiting the Red Diamond Rough booth looked in the direction from which the shouting came.
Jiangnan Mountain Villa has a beautiful scenery and is built next to a large lake, and boating is also a good way of entertainment for people who come here to play. Originally, rowing was not too dangerous, but it is estimated that someone had too much fun on the boat and overturned the boat.
Yang Bin instinctively rushed over, ran at full speed for half a minute and came to the edge of the lake, and finally saw clearly what was going on.
The lake area where the accident occurred is not a designated area for pleasure boat recreation, but a large breeding area or something, and there are barbed wire fences on the ground and water to separate the breeding area from other areas. Four boys and girls of fifteen or sixteen years old, presumably following their parents, mischievously got through a hole in the barbed wire fence and rowed an iron boat that was placed by the waterside farmers to the middle of the water.
Then, the four fell into the water.
It's February, the water temperature is low, and people can't hold on to such low temperatures for long. There were already staff members running over to the shore, and there were only two other abandoned rusty iron boats nearby, but these two iron boats were stranded on the shore, and there were debris piled up nearby, and it was impossible to push them over to save people for a while.
The parents of the four boys and girls also rushed over one after another, standing on the shore and looking at the four boys and girls struggling in the water, making a very miserable cry for help, but there was nothing they could do.
After Yang Bin came to the water's edge, he saw that the situation was urgent, and knew that if he waited for the two iron boats to be launched, it was estimated that the four boys and girls would have died in the water due to exhaustion and cold. He wandered around the shore for a while and found three old wooden barrels with a diameter of about half a meter, and after looking left and right to see that no one was paying attention, he put them all on top of each other and put them into the mezzanine space.
This did not cause a warning from the official moral system, presumably because the old wooden barrels were ownerless or worthless.
Then Yang Bin looked around again and found that no one was paying attention to him, so he moved his mind and put all the clothes on his body into the mezzanine space except for his underwear...... It is not difficult to do this, as long as the things that come into contact with Yang Bin's body, all the thoughts can be put into the mezzanine space.
Then Yang Bin jumped into the lake, and the biting cold instantly invaded his whole body, and after a moment of tension in Yang Bin's body muscles, he immediately unleashed it and struggled to swim towards the boys and girls in the center of the lake.
"Someone jumped down to save someone!" The people who gathered around the shore now noticed Yang Bin's side.
In particular, the parents of the boys and girls kept shouting, 'Hurry! Come on! Watching Yang Bin approach several boys and girls who had fallen into the water.
Yang Bin's usually strong physique exerted its power at this time, and it only took him three minutes to quickly swim to the side of several people who fell into the water, at this time there were three people who were still awake and were struggling desperately on the water, and a girl was lying face down on the water and did not move much.
Yang Bin hurriedly took out the three wooden barrels and threw them to the three young boys and girls who were still awake, and asked them to hold on to the wooden barrels to keep their bodies from sinking, while he himself swam over and grabbed the girl who didn't move much, stabilized his body with his feet in the water, and after blowing into her mouth mouth from mouth to mouth, he squeezed her chest and lungs with both hands one after the other.
First aid in water, this series of actions is said to be easy, but it is actually extremely difficult to do, that is, Yang Bin, who is very well-versed in water and is also very healthy, can do it. But it was also extremely physically demanding, but fortunately, after two mouth-to-mouth blows and cardiopulmonary compressions, the girl choked a few mouthfuls of water and finally woke up, Yang Bin didn't dare to delay, grabbed her and quickly rowed back to the shore.
The three boys and girls with the barrel were not in a very optimistic situation, their faces were already white from the cold, but they instinctively held on to the barrel and could not swim towards the shore. Yang Bin's whole person was almost out of strength, and it was not easy to stabilize his body and barely hold the girl in his hand.
Fortunately, an iron boat that ran aground on the shore was finally pushed into the water with the efforts of everyone on the shore, and two staff members surnamed men took two boat pulps and rowed towards the center of the lake.
The capacity of the iron boat was limited, and one man and two women went up first, because they were afraid of capsizing, Yang Bin and another young man who didn't look too bad stayed in the water, and stabilized his body with three wooden barrels.
After the iron boat rowed back to the shore and sent the people up, he immediately returned and picked up Yang Bin and the young man to the shore. The shore was already full of people, and when Yang Bin returned to the shore, there was a burst of warm applause on the shore.
Zheng Ying had also rushed to the shore, and as soon as she saw Yang Bin, who was only wearing underwear, came ashore, she pounced and hugged his body tightly, her eyes were red: "Binbin, are you crazy!?" Isn't there a ship? So many people don't go into the water, you can do it! What to do if you drown!? ”
"Am I not doing this?" Yang Bin smiled, stretched out his hand and patted Zheng Ying's back, he had just received a reminder to get six merit points, and the test score 'Righteousness and Courage' had also increased by two points, this trip should be regarded as a fruitful one.
The ultra-small mezzanine space treasure also made a great contribution in this rescue incident, otherwise Yang Bin would not have been able to bring the three wooden barrels over, and he quickly helped Yang Bin take off his clothes, avoiding the consequences of the clothes being wet or thrown on the shore and defaced.
It is not an exaggeration to evaluate the righteousness and courage of the official moral system, if Yang Bin didn't go down just now, it is estimated that the girl lying in the water will at least not be able to save it, and the other three are also very dangerous, the barrel he brought and the timely rescue won the most precious rescue time for these four young boys and girls, and they saved their lives by racing against death.
Now Yang Bin has long regarded things like doing good deeds and acting bravely as ordinary as playing online games to earn experience, and sometimes he even doubts his motives for doing these things, is it because his surname is kind and helpful? Or because they want to get more merit points.
I didn't feel it when I impulsively went into the water to save people just now, but now I think back on it and I'm a little scared...... He didn't have the habit of winter swimming before, such a cold water, it is easy to cause cramps if it goes down suddenly, in case the cramps die in the water, the only merit points left in his account now are not enough to save him, and he is likely to take his surname.
Later, after Yang Bin rescued the unconscious girl in the water, his physical strength was seriously overdrawn, coupled with the cold water of the lake, he had also reached the limit, fortunately, the iron boat came in time, otherwise he would not have been able to support it for too long.
But fortunately, there was no danger and returned to the shore safely, so there was nothing to think about.
"Where's your clothes?" Zheng Ying suddenly seemed to think of something, and hurriedly let go of Yang Bin's body and took off his jacket, ready to put it on him.
But...... The size difference is too far...... However, there was a staff member of the villa who contributed his jacket and handed it over to Yang Bin to put on his body, and some other staff members of the villa also drove over in a vehicle at this time, and put Yang Bin in a small van and sent him to a three-story guest room in the villa, where he could take a shower and change clothes.
Several other boys and girls were also picked up in other vehicles with their families. Until now, the four rescued parents have only gathered around their children, and no one has thought of saying thank you to Yang Bin, who desperately went into the water to save people.
Of course, Yang Bin doesn't need their thanks, as long as the official ethics system recognizes his behavior and gives rewards.
