Chapter 4: Where Does Your Faith Come From?
An Feng sighed helplessly, but his tone did not have many complaints and grievances: "Alas, my father's situation is similar to yours - the two places are separated." He was an oil exploration worker, and he was away from home all year round, or even years, and I was used to ignoring him. ”
Zhou Tao was surprised: "Oil workers, that should be a high income, how can you ...... At such a young age, he was in a hurry to make money. ”
"Alas, the income is high, but what does this have to do with us - he never sends his salary back, only brings some money back when he comes home for the New Year, but this money ...... In the end, it was still not enough for him to spend", An Feng sighed and added: "He is addicted to alcohol, and his life in the wild has caused him a lot of problems. ”
"You ......" Zhou Tao chose the word: "No wonder you are a little autistic...... He doesn't care about his family at all, do you hate him? ”
An Feng grinned and replied with a smile: "It is said that a Hollywood actress won an award, and she talked about her mother in her acceptance speech, she said: My mother is a drug addict, prostitutes, and is in prison, and she always does this to me and that to me...... But I love her.
The speech was met with applause. Because that's human nature. It is the attachment of human nature to the love of blood relatives. People applauded these words to applaud humanity, because the award-winning actress did not feel that she was higher than human beings because of the award, and that she did not need to have the moral feelings of ordinary humans. ”
After a pause, An Feng added softly: "I'm a human being, don't induce me to hate!" ”
Zhou Tao nodded, it is understandable that autistic children think differently from ordinary people.
After a moment of silence, An Feng continued to add: "My mother said that it is not easy for him, working in the field, there is no meal, and everything needs to be bought by himself, so he earns enough money to spend it himself, we don't expect him." ”
Zhou Tao squirmed his lips, but finally decided to give up the argument. He took a medical record sheet to fill out, and casually asked, "What are you going to do after earning money?" ”
"You take me out!" An Fengshi said in shock.
Zhou Tao stopped his pen in astonishment, and was stunned for a moment before remembering to ask: "Do you want to go out, what are you going out for?" Running away from home? No, the situation of your family is far from the point where you need to leave home, think about it, your mother should have a sad ...... after you leave"
The real reason why An Feng wants to go out is because ...... The year is 1991. The "Desert Storm" broke out at the beginning of the year, and the US military swept through the Iraqi army in only a short time...... Well, who is more just in this war has nothing to do with An Feng. However, when Iraq occupied Kuwait, it moved back to Iraq the oil wealth accumulated by the Kuwaiti government and Kuwaiti civilians for nearly a hundred years - this money, and An Feng wanted to have a relationship with them.
It is said that at the beginning of the war, Iraq wanted to occupy Kuwait permanently, so it did not be harsh on the wealth of the Kuwaiti government and the people. Only a small number of Iraqi soldiers roamed the streets, looting some Kuwaiti civilian wealth, but they were not in a hurry to return home. After the U.S. military began to strike, Iraq panicked and knew that it could not hold on, so it hurriedly transferred Kuwaiti wealth to the country.
Kuwait was the richest country in the world at that time, and the accumulated wealth was ...... After the war, it is said that the National Bank of Kuwait lost more than 3,000 tons of gold, and among the people, the antiques, treasures, and deposits collected by Kuwaiti tycoons were looted. So much so that after the war, Kuwait fell from the richest man in the world to an ordinary rich country, and the treasures and antiques left by the ancestors became the personal collections of Iraqi soldiers.
With such a huge amount of wealth, it is not easy to transfer it out. In particular, at the very beginning of the war, the US military gained absolute air supremacy, and under the wanton bombing of planes, it was difficult for Iraq's transport convoys to smoothly complete their journey home.
The war ended so quickly that no one expected that 37 days later, Iraq, once the number one Arab power, would begin to collapse on all fronts. At this time, many transfer convoys had not yet left Kuwait, many transfer convoys were still hiding from bombing in the desert, many transfer convoys were still preparing to refuel at gas stations, and some transfer convoys were bombed by the US military.
Afterwards, part of this wealth fell into the hands of American soldiers, part of it was captured by the Americans and returned to Kuwait, part of it was privately divided among the departments of defense of the participating countries, and part of it was scattered in the desert and flooded by storms. In the decades that followed, this desert wealth became the object of contention between mercenaries and treasure hunters.
An Feng happened to know the whereabouts of one of the "lost fortunes": a small Iraqi transport convoy chose the path through the desert, but was intercepted by the US military in the desert. At that time, US helicopters circled in the air to chase and kill, and various transport vehicles scattered to break through. They ran in a panic, and one of the escaped cars ran out of gas, and the driver and guards abandoned the car and fled.
Before fleeing, the driver made a rough record of the location where the vehicle was abandoned, and that night, a desert storm came, the storm buried the transporter, and the driver and three guards died of thirst in the desert during the trek......
Two years later, the treasure hunt began when the body of one of the victims was found, carrying a rough piece of paper with a gold truck.
Treasure hunters from all over the world searched for five years before they found the golden carts scattered in the desert one by one. Although the U.S. Department of Defense finally intervened and returned the gold carried in the car to Kuwait, it was ...... The wealth on the corpses of Iraqi soldiers quietly goes to treasure hunters.
You must know that when the Iraqi soldiers retreated, all the pockets on their bodies could no longer be filled, which is why they died of thirst in the desert - there was no place to store personal supplies, could they not die of thirst and starvation?
The battle for the riches of the desert was bloody, but now it was the safest moment, when the Iraqi Defense Forces were broken up and there was no record of a convoy. The soldiers of the Mi Army who participated in the war returned to China one after another to retire and disperse into the civilian population to become civilians, completely unaware that they had rubbed shoulders with huge wealth.
At the same time, the US command was busy sorting out battle reports and counting the results; The Kuwaiti government was busy rebuilding after the war; The countries of the world were busy dividing up the gaps in the oil market and the distribution of benefits after the war; Arab countries are clamoring about what to do with the defeated Iraq...... Who will remember a small convoy of six transporters?
The six transports, each loaded with five tons of gold, as well as the soldiers' personal collections.
At present, in the international market, the closing price of spot gold is about 361 per ounce. $2, which is equivalent to about $12 per gram. 73 US dollars, or 67 yuan per gram. $7. In the domestic market, the price of gold is around 110 yuan per gram...... Combined with the soldiers' personal wealth, the value of this treasure is about $600 million.
An Feng was not greedy, he only wanted to take one of the cars, and he only happened to remember the location of one of them - the coach who taught him self-defense was the winner of the battle for wealth...... One. He relished his victory, and by the way, An Feng remembered the detailed location of the golden car.
An Feng knew that sooner or later the matter of this transport team would be exposed. If he is too greedy to take all his wealth, not to mention how difficult it is to do so, it will be extremely dangerous and more than worth the loss to attract the eyes of all treasure hunters.
At present, two years are still before the fortune is revealed, and during this time one of the cars is quietly stolen, and the treasure hunter will only think that he has not searched carefully, or that the car has been quietly hidden by other treasure hunters...... In this way, An Feng has the time and space to cover up the truth.
It's an ownerless fortune that whoever moves into the house is theirs.
One-sixth of the $600 million, the hardest hurdle to get this wealth is simply going abroad.
The price of gold will slowly appreciate over the next few years until it rises to $1,000 per ounce. This equates to a tripling of value.
You have to go abroad, and you have to do all the treasure hunting yourself, because it's not safe for anyone to leave it to you.
As long as he can get out, as long as he can reach that desert, $100 million will belong to him, and no one will know afterwards.
Therefore, what family difficulties, what autism, and what money-making plans, these are all smoke bombs released by An Feng, and their purpose is to get out.
"Why go out and what do you do out? How so? An Feng replied with a playful smile on his face: "You want me to say: I went out to get a better education, so that I can better serve the motherland in the future, Brabra; Or to go out to increase knowledge and gain more advanced knowledge...... Do you need me to say that? ”
Zhou Tao's eyes stared at An Feng from the bottom of the spectacle lens for a moment, and sighed: "We really don't need to explain our intelligence...... Well, autism is a very new case in the country, and there is no precedent before. If you want to completely cure this disease, you can only look abroad. When I go abroad, maybe I'll learn more about treatment. At that time, if your family can afford to pay for travel and living, then I am willing to continue to treat you for free and provide you with shelter - just do research. ”
"That's a good reason!" An Feng gave a thumbs up and exclaimed: "I like it." ”
Zhou Tao tapped the medical record book with a pen and asked in a consultative tone: "So, how should this medical record be opened?" ”
"We started this semester and we had a new math teacher, she just graduated from college and had a big temper. When I asked a question in class, I thought her question was too childish and ignored it", An Feng said softly: "She probably felt very shameless and insisted on stopping my class...... I've been out of school for a week, and my mother is in a hurry to ask for a cure, and as a result, I'm coming to you. ”
"I understand", Zhou Tao nodded, and read out the content of the writing while writing: "The student is ...... because of his extraordinary intellectual development."
Zhou Tao stopped his pen and tilted his body to ask, "So what?" ”
"Empty-sighted, self-esteemed, arrogant...... Which of these words do you think is appropriate, write whatever you want. ”
"Good...... The student suffered from severe autism due to abnormal mental development, which led to poor communication with others...... I said 'serious', you don't object, do you? ”
"That's good", An Feng, who is like a little adult, nodded with satisfaction: "If it's serious, others will pay more attention to it." ”
Zhou Tao brushed and wrote the medical records, paused for a moment, and immediately asked again: "It takes a lot of money to live abroad, and the embassy visa fee alone requires a few months' salary, what is ......your family's situation?" After you left, your mother was left with only one younger brother. I know that old people like boys, and your sister doesn't count. Your brother alone ......"
"...... in this case", An Feng said a little carefully.
This little old child sat in front of Zhou Tao peacefully, his eyes revealed absolute confidence, and a sense of control, he seriously discussed his future plans with adults, Zhou Tao ...... It didn't feel weird at the time, he thought it was natural, so the conversation went naturally.
I only heard An Feng continue: "...... In this case, I no longer need my mom to bear anything. Then the result is: my mother's salary alone only supports my sister and my brother, and it will feel easier. Of course, it would have been perfect if I could have helped my mom a little more. ”
"Not bad...... Although mothers will feel uncomfortable when they leave their children, if the burden on the family is reduced, and we are in the name of healing. Parents are willing to do anything for the good of their children. So your mother will definitely agree......" Zhou Tao paused and continued: "Then, we only have one problem left now: you need a lot of money.
You are young, and child labor is not allowed abroad, so you don't want to earn money abroad. Before you go abroad, you have to come up with a few years of living expenses at once, which is a lot of money...... Where does your faith come from? ”
