Since entering the school in September 2003, Li Zhan, like all soldiers, will lose his sense of money in a very short time.

At Huaqing University, these Air Force Commission trainees are very different from other students. Not only do you not have to pay all the expenses yourself, but there is also a monthly salary for students, or a student allowance. As future Air Force pilots, their income is very high compared to other branches of the military.

You don't have to worry about food, clothing, housing and transportation, and even for a long time, there is no place to spend money. It is inevitable to lose the concept of money. Over time, in Li Zhan's hearts, money is just money, and there are not many meanings given by the world.

It was only now, until he resolutely and decisively signed a credit loan contract with the bank and signed a house purchase agreement with Xiangjiang Garden, and in just one afternoon, he was burdened with a debt of up to 500,000 yuan, and then returned home to inform him of the matter, and in the face of his dumbfounded parents, he realized that he had done a big thing.

When Li Jianguo and Ye Huihua were tasteless, Li Zhan took a big bite of food and comforted, "I really don't have to worry, I have a provident fund every month, a salary of seven or eight thousand, and where the army doesn't spend money, it won't take a few years to pay it off." Besides, housing prices will definitely rise in the future, and if they can be doubled, the loan money will not be earned. ”

After taking a bite of the dish, Li Xiang said, "Brother said this, what are you worried about, besides, why does the bank lend money to brother, it's not because he is an officer in the army, any unit may go bankrupt, but the army won't, what's there to worry about if you have a military back?" ”

His words made Li Jianguo's mood lighten, and he asked Li Zhan, "Is the army in charge?" Isn't it still up to the army to help pay it back? ”

How can there be such a good thing!

But in order to reassure him, Li Zhan opened his mouth and made it up, "Of course." Dad, do you know how much the army invests in training a pilot? I'm just a new flyer, and I calculated that the army has invested more than 500,000 yuan in me in the past five years. When I fully mature and become a backbone, it will take at least five years, and the investment will increase every year. That day, I told my mother about the rod fee, which was a subsidy of several hundred yuan per hour from the troops for flying in the sky for an hour. In addition to this need for aviation fuel, there are also maintenance guarantees, and other miscellaneous things, all of which add up, and the troops will have to invest nearly one million in me in the next five years. You say, the army invested so much money in me, will it watch me affect my work because I can't afford the house? ”

"Yes, yes, yes, yes, the troops will definitely not care." Ye Huihua is not so much about identity as it is about finding identity.

Li Jianguo thought about it carefully, thinking of the few share-level civil servants of government units he knew, and nodded subconsciously, "That's the truth, yes, the army has invested so much money, and it will definitely not be ignored." ”

Spreading his hands, Li Zhan said, "So, you have nothing to worry about." ”

"Eat, buy everything, it's useless to regret it!" Li Jianguo waved his hand, and this can be regarded as a complete acceptance of the facts.

In the past ten years, Li Jianguo and his wife have never saved more than 10,000 yuan, and Ye Huihua even thought that 10,000 yuan was ten yuan. One can imagine what a debt of half a million means to them - the sky has fallen.

And now their son was on top.

Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, and the theme of Li Zhan's family has been poor for a long time, and Chen Fei's family is not poor, but he also has a lot of troubles.

On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Li Zhan was busy greeting relatives and friends who came to celebrate his mother's birthday, and Chen Fei took Zheng Ruolin's Audi car to attend the class reunion.

Driving through the bustling city and into the suburban road, Zheng Ruolin carefully avoided the army of relatives and motorcycles on the road, and said to Chen Fei, "I remember that your parents are both employees of the power supply bureau, the conditions should be good, and you are a pilot, where to find this condition, why are you not married?" ”

Chen Fei shook his head helplessly, "There are a lot of people at home who have introduced me, and I have seen a few, but they are not suitable." It's not that I don't hate blind dates, I just feel that I can't accept that I have made marriage into a business. ”

"Or we'll make do with it." Zheng Ruolin joked.

Chen Fei laughed.

Zheng Ruolin covered up for a moment and said, "Funny, I'm divorced, and although I don't have children, your parents should be quite mindful." ”

"Don't talk about that, it's annoying." Chen Fei said, "Yes, where is this party, go to the north of the city, right?" ”

Zheng Ruolin pointed forward with her hand, and there were three people sitting on a motorcycle on the right side, dodging a broken stone in front of her, and suddenly broke it to the left, which frightened Zheng Ruolin into an emergency brake and scolded at the windshield, "Fight you on the street, die steadily!" ”

Chen Fei was startled, grabbed the handrail tightly, and his face turned a little pale, "Slow down, slow down, don't hurry, slow down." ”

Resuming driving, Zheng Ruolin looked at Chen Fei and couldn't help laughing, "Aren't you, how much is this, and the speed of more than thirty is also fast?" You're still a pilot, planes are much faster than cars! ”

"That's different, heaven and earth are different." Chen Fei said with a reluctant smile.

"I don't understand." Zheng Ruolin covered her mouth and smiled, and said, "Wang Gang remembers, right? It was the decrepit boy who had been doing a small business at the school since the beginning of high school, and he set up a mountain villa in the northern suburbs, and the party was held there. ”

Chen Fei's eyes flashed the image of an old boy, and said, "Where is he doing a small business, mixing with a group of young people in society, and helping others collect protection money." ”

"It's not the same as it used to be, and now they're young local entrepreneurs. Look at me, driving an A4, others think I'm doing well, but in fact, what is it, Wang Gang is sitting in millions of Bentleys. He seems to be only thirty, and I remember being two or three years older than many people in the class. Zheng Ruolin was a little proud, a little stunned and a little lost, and her tone was very complicated.

Chen Fei was still digesting this information, and Zheng Ruolin counted it carefully, "There are also Zhou Guoquan, Lin Dingmao, Guo Jiahao, who are either civil servants or their own bosses, and it is easy to earn millions a year." Oh, do you remember, Liu Haihai, she is amazing, an associate professor of the Conservatory of Music, many singers have studied music with her, often participate in music programs on TV stations, and are well-known throughout the country. ”

Too much has changed.

But it's only time to graduate from high school, how can my old classmates mix better than the other? Isn't it the same young man in his twenties and eighteen, the eldest but in his early thirties? Compared with these people, Chen Fei made up his mind not to reveal his income no matter who asked.

There is a big gap between the scene of the party and the imagination, there is no full seat in the original thought, more than 100 square boxes, a large round table that can seat more than 30 people, and only a dozen students sit. Today, however, the lodge only accepts their guests.

"Boss Wang, you are a big deal!" Zheng Ruolin was also a little surprised, and teased as soon as she entered the door.

The classmates who caught the chat stopped to look at the past, and their eyes quickly focused on Chen Fei's face, which became lively all of a sudden. Zheng Ruolin often sees her, and she is usually keen on organizing gatherings, so she is very familiar with it. Chen Fei is rare to see, he has been in the past ten years, and he is more upright and handsome.

"Chen Fei! Captain Chen! Hahaha, I finally saw you, the most outstanding person in our class is you, the Air Force pilot! Fly a fighter! How do I compare that broken Bentley? ”

Striding up to meet a man of medium stature wearing a slim casual suit Dai Jiang Stanton, it was the richest Wang Gang, who opened his arms and hugged Chen Fei enthusiastically on the shoulder, turned sideways and barely put his hand on Chen Fei's shoulder, and shouted to everyone.

All kinds of compliments came up, mainly to compliment Wang Gang, and expressed his insincere admiration to Chen Fei, saying that the People's Liberation Army had worked hard and that he was a great soldier, and he didn't leave at all. After Chen Fei dealt with it, he suddenly felt bored.

He misses the first time he met, and everyone was a little reserved and sincere. And now, in addition to hypocrisy, it is flattery.

After the greetings, sit down.

More than a dozen middle-aged women dressed in festive cheongsams brought the vegetables to the table like a stream, and the three waiters who were in charge of the service were carefully selected young girls from the villa.

Wang Gang regretfully concealed his embarrassment in a confident tone, and said, "Many classmates from other places failed to rush back, and some of them rushed back to leave their relatives today." It's also important to come back for the New Year all year round, and it's also important to go to relatives, so it's not reluctant. It's just a dozen of us. But it's okay, there are fewer people and it's not so messy, so I can have a good chat and talk about classmates. I didn't prepare much today, Moutai Wuliangye and I specially entrusted someone to buy the Lafite from abroad, and the one who can make it white can be white, and if you like to drink red wine, you can drink red wine, in short, you have to drink it. ”

Everyone expressed their attitudes, and Lin Dingmao then told a joke with a little color, which caused the audience to laugh, and the atmosphere rose.

Guo Jiahao nodded to Soft China and said with a smile, "Wang Gang, you didn't choose this place very well, and the urban area is not better than here." ”

As he spoke, he glanced at the middle-aged woman waitress who was walking out after serving the food.

"It's not about being closer. How easy it is to do in the city, a matter of phone call. Wang Gang suddenly had steps and said, "Otherwise, we have lunch here, let's go directly to the listing area, find a resort to take a hot spring to rest and rest, and I will arrange Zhiluo in the city at night and talk all night." What do you think? ”

Mo Ruolin glanced at Liu Haihai, who pursed her lips and kept a smile, and said, "Mr. Wang, are you asking for the opinions of all of us, or are you mainly asking for the opinions of our Professor Liu?" ”

In fact, Chen Fei also saw that Wang Gang's focus was neither on Mo Ruolin nor on him, but on Liu Haihai. He even suspected that this so-called gathering was organized specifically for the pursuit of the Willow Coast.

Isn't Willow Coast married?

Chen Fei secretly wondered.
