Chapter 318: Growth

Now that I'm out of the army in the summer, I can still work for another year and a month. I'll pay your money back next month and save for another year. Coupled with the discharge fee, I can get a scallion pancake shop when I go back. When the time comes, let my brother come to help, earn some money and marry a daughter-in-law. ”

Looking at Xu Sanduo's silly appearance, Chen Ming suddenly felt that the cowhide bag in his hand was extremely heavy.

The 140,000 yuan lent to Xu Sanduo back then is not a small number, but it can be put ten years later. The 140,000 is of no substantive significance to himself. It's not enough to buy a car, let alone buy a house, plus you don't lack a house.

Combined with his understanding of Xu Sanduo, this money must have been added to his usual salary and subsidy, and he didn't spend a penny except for eating and drinking in the army, which was saved.

"Sanduo, do you think it's going to be like this? As for the money, you take it first. Even if I invest in your scallion pancake shop, you take it and rent a storefront, and when the time comes, make money, and then pay me back, what's the matter? ”

looked at Xu Sanduo's dark face and the calluses on his palms. Chen Ming really couldn't bear to see such a soldier and be trapped by money after being discharged from the army.

Even though it is natural to repay debts, think about it from another perspective. Chen Ming thought that he would definitely not be able to work with his head for more than ten years, and in the end, he would not get a penny, so he would pay off all the debts to his family.

Xu Sanduo has reached the limit of what he can do, and Chen Ming feels that it is enough. The 140,000 yuan is just the icing on the cake, but for Xu Sanduo, it can be of great help.

"No. I'm not stupid, Wu Zhe also told me what you said. You just don't want me to pay it back, but I have to pay it back. Otherwise, how will I see you in the future? ”

Hearing Xu Sanduo's words, Ouyang glanced at him in a bit of surprise. Although he didn't understand what the story was in it that he owed Chen Ming, just with these three words, Ouyang couldn't help but be full of recognition for Xu Sanduo, a stupid-looking warrior.

"Okay, I'll take the money. When your shop opens, send us a message, and then the brothers will have the opportunity to cheer you on. Also, if you have financial difficulties, call me. ”

Chen Ming saw that Xu Sanduo was resolute, and after thinking about it, he didn't come hard. While handing the cowhide bag to Ouyang, he motioned for her to put it in the bag. He asked.

"By the way, what about Wu Zhe? Why didn't this guy come to see me? And Qi Huan's black face? ”

Qi Huan retired with an injury, lost a leg, and now works in their hometown Disabled Persons' Federation. Wu Zhe later took the doctoral examination of the Institute of Science and Technology, and is now engaged in scientific research in the final assembly. Professional and technical level 3, I heard that it is about to be transferred to level 2. A lot of our new equipment now comes from his lab. ”

Hearing Chen Ming's question, he didn't wait for Xu Sanduo to speak. Yuan Lang, who had been silent for a long time, took over the topic with a smile. It's just that when Qi Huan is mentioned, it is a bitter smile, and when Wu Zhe is mentioned, it is a smile from the heart.

His own fighters can get rid of the dangerous environment of Lao A, and they can also contribute to the special operations cause of the whole army, and he is happy for him from the bottom of his heart. I didn't feel uncomfortable at all that my former subordinates were about to surpass me.

"Haha, okay, okay. Why is the atmosphere so heavy? Taking wedding anniversary photos is a good thing and a happy thing. Don't say anything else, I still have some things to deal with here. During the day today, let Sanduo help you take pictures, and we won't get drunk at night! ”

Feeling that the atmosphere was a little heavy, Yuan Lang smiled heartily. In a commanding tone, after throwing the job of taking Chen Ming and his wife to Xu Sanduo, he hurriedly returned to the office.

It's not that he said bad things about Xu Sanduo, but Chen Ming really felt that he couldn't talk to Xu Sanduo. When facing Yuan Lang, he can smile and make some small jokes unscrupulously. It doesn't matter how much trouble you make, but in the face of Xu Sanduo....

This guy is still not joking after all these years.

After hurriedly taking photos in the training ground and other places, Chen Ming and the three of them found a shady tree to sit down. You look at me, I look at you.

If he hadn't agreed to Yuan Lang's drinking at night, Chen Ming estimated that he would have been embarrassed and would have slipped away.

"Chen Ming, why don't we go to the shooting range to shoot targets? You shoot the same gun as Chengcai, but it's amazing. ”

Xu Sanduo has grown a little bit over the years. Although he didn't joke yet, this awkward atmosphere was not imperceptible, and he couldn't help but propose.

"Is it convenient for Ouyang to her?"

"It's okay, it's not like you don't know. Let's here, except for the new training players, the bullet consumption is unlimited. Remember not to point the muzzle of the gun at the person, and don't put your finger on the trigger casually and you'll be fine. ”

Hearing Xu Sanduo say this, Chen Ming didn't refuse when he thought about it. It's not a thing to sit stiff all the time, and it's not bad to let Ouyang experience the feeling of shooting targets.

Although this is done, it is somewhat of a public and private use, but generally speaking. Unless the Strike Hard Period is issued, many leaders turn a blind eye to this kind of thing, and in addition, the leader of this place, Yuan someone.... Originally, he wasn't a guy who played by the rules.

In order not to affect the normal training of other fighters, Xu Sanduo took Chen Ming and Ouyang to the old shooting training ground after receiving the guns and ammunition. That is, the outdoor 100-meter shooting range that Chen Ming once used.

Looking at this familiar place, there was also Ouyang who was looking at the 95 rifle in his hand with a curious expression. Chen Ming suddenly had an illusion like traveling through time.

Before you know it, fifteen years have passed. In Chen Ming's eyes, he seemed to see himself who seemed quite naΓ―ve back then, just on this training ground, disrupting the order of the queue. I want to rely on the advantages of foresight brought by my previous life to prevent Tuo Yonggang from leaving.

I remember that at that time, Yuan Lang was standing beside him, and Qi Huan was staring from a distance. In a trance, everything is gone. Yuan Lang is no longer the squadron leader who still needs to personally lead the team back then, and Qi Huan is gone. Takunaga's gang hasn't heard from him since that farewell.

Big brother Wu Zhe is also gone, and the only thing left in front of him is Xu Sanduo, who looks a little silly and is teaching Ouyang basic gun skills, essentials and norms.

And next year, he's going to be gone.

Just like the 95 rifle that Ouyang was holding in his hand at the moment. At that time, it represented a rarity, and tall weapons, but now they have long been installed in large quantities. Even in a few years, there will be a risk of obsolescence.

Just like the precision shooting technology he mastered back then. Now that they are becoming more and more open, many troops have already mastered more advanced techniques and tactics through various means, and their own three-legged cat kung fu has long been eliminated.

Maybe this is growth, but Chen Ming suddenly felt lonely at this moment. Sitting quietly on the hillside where the instructors once stood, looking at the old training ground where weeds had grown.

At dinner, Chen Ming was poured down by Yuan Lang and Xu Sanduo without any suspense.
