Chapter 1: Crashing Back into History
The moon is full and the stars are scarce, and tonight is a sunny day. The weather in October has shed its heat, and it is a cool and beautiful season.
And Zhang Fan doesn't feel good at all now, even though he is driving a sports car worth millions. But don't get me wrong, the car isn't his, and he can drive it for about five minutes at most.
Four months ago, Zhang Fan, who graduated from university, had good aspirations and plenty of vitality at that time. He graduated from a key university in S City, a highly talented student majoring in economics and trade, and his tutors are very optimistic about him, and he is very proud of himself. I thought I could make a difference in the international metropolis of S City and break out of my own sky. However, under the influence of the global economic crisis, various companies are laying off employees, and graduates like Zhang Fan, who are poor and white, and have no connections, want to find a good job, not to mention the doors, there are no windows.
Originally, it was a good choice to continue to stay in school and continue your studies in graduate school. Zhang Fan's learning maturity was good, and even his tutor persuaded him to stay in school, but the situation did not allow him to do so. The family's economic situation is very poor, both parents are laid-off workers, doing some small businesses, no fixed income, all rely on his father to drive outside the transportation company to support, not a regular job, and Zhang Fan went to college to pay most of the family's expenses. If the family hadn't started saving money for Zhang Fan's school very early, he would have had a problem with whether he could even go to college. Now the family has no extra money for Zhang Fan to study, and he feels that he can no longer increase the burden on his family. Originally, it was good to go home, but Zhang Fan didn't want to go back to that city with a poor environment and low quality people. He wants to make his mark in the big city.
Zhang Fan really had no choice, he applied for a waiter in a five-star hotel, and the hotel staff saw that he had a good appearance, temperament, high education, and was very fluent in English, so he was hired on the spot. The income of this job is not high, but the level of contact with society is much higher than when Zhang Fan worked when he was in school! Zhang Fan has no objections, and it is regarded as another way of social practice. Maybe one day the boss of a private company has a crush on himself, then isn't he just a step into the sky!
So Zhang Fan became a waiter, although the hotel clearly stipulates that it is not allowed to accept or ask for tips, but in some places that are not checked, such as in the guest room, the tips given by the guests will still be put into their own pockets, especially when they meet those more generous guests, there is no reason to refuse. Anyway, Zhang Fan has a good impression of this job, although he can't show his talent and has to grovel to others, but at least there is no problem in supporting himself. When the world improves, it will not be very difficult to find a job that satisfies you with your diploma and real talents.
Tonight, Zhang Fan's hotel hosted a large-scale party event, which was attended by municipal dignitaries of S City, and senior executives of various state-owned enterprises, private enterprises, and multinational enterprises. Originally, this was a good opportunity for Zhang Fan to make friends with big people, but his shift today was to greet guests at the door and park valets. Although he had the opportunity to drive those tens of millions of famous cars, Zhang Fan was not happy at all.
Watching those people either have successful careers and bright clothes, or bathe in the success of their parents, with beauties in their arms and sports cars. Zhang Fan was very envious, but it was just envy, he was not jealous of them at all. He knows that this world is never equal, but he also believes that with his own ability, he can have everything he wants.
Today's work is very tiring, Zhang Fan not only has to carefully drive the guest's car into the parking garage and park it. When the guests leave, they have to drive the car back cautiously, and the speed is even faster, and some guests will not be in such a good mood to wait. The guests here are all celebrities, if someone is angry, then the hotel manager will be angry, the hotel manager will be angry, then their foreman will definitely be angry, their own foreman will be angry, then they will be unlucky!
When the guests were all gone, Zhang Fan thought he could go back to his nest to rest, but the foreman stopped him again, saying that there were not enough people and asked him to go inside to help clean up. Zhang Fan really wanted to remind him that it was time to get off work, and there would be no overtime pay for this kind of "help". But I can't help but go, after all, the official level crushes people to death! If you make him unhappy and go to the manager to say bad things about yourself, then you will suffer!
Finally finished the day's work, Zhang Fan dragged his tired body away. He misses the little nest he rented now. Although it is only a dozen square meters, the conditions are poor, and it shares a public toilet with other residents in the corridor, and it is very far from the hotel where he works, but the rent is very cheap. Zhang Fan did not choose to work at night, and the three meals during the day were provided by the hotel, although it would not be too good, but it saved Zhang Fan a lot of expenses. Zhang Fan regards all of this as a kind of training for himself.
Caught the last bus back to his residence, and he was alone in the bus except the driver. Zhang Fan sat in the back seat, looking at the night outside the window, not knowing what he was thinking. He does not complain about the inconvenience caused by the difficulties at home, he is grateful to his parents, and he wants to repay them. But I work so hard, but the society doesn't give me the opportunity, and I have to do this work that has nothing to do with what I have learned. Zhang Fan is still a very optimistic person, although he will complain about all kinds of injustices, but he also believes in God's arrangement, and he believes that he will always come out one day. Since the bus would not arrive until it started for an hour, and Zhang Fan would not get off until he reached the end, he fell asleep on the bus after relaxing.
When the bus was crossing an intersection, a car rushed over on the side, probably the driver of the car drank too much, drove over without looking at the red light, and crashed straight into the back half of the bus, which happened to be the position that Zhang Fan did. only heard a loud cracking sound, Zhang Fan flew to heaven in his sleep, fortunately, at least he didn't feel any pain at all!
The morning news broadcast in S City the next day: "After a series of drunk driving incidents, the whole country is enforcing a crackdown, and last night someone committed another crime against the wind." A BMW in the city that was taking pictures ran a red light and collided with a moving bus, killing the only passenger on board. The public security authorities are stepping up their investigations. This is another wake-up call for the city's traffic safety, reminding all drivers and friends not to drink and drive, which is not only the responsibility for the personal safety of others, but also responsible for their own safety. ”
Zhang Fan didn't hear all this, he was still asleep until he woke up, feeling extremely energetic, but the sky was already bright. Zhang Fan was startled, he just wanted to take a break on the bus, why was it dawn! Seeing the time, he was bound to be late, and he had to look at the extremely stinky face of the foreman, Zhang Fan had a headache.
Suddenly, Zhang Fan found himself lying in a desolate open field, and he wondered very much, could it be that he had been kidnapped? was also thrown into such a desolate place, fortunately, the other party may see that he has no oil and water to fish, otherwise his life will be in trouble! However, Zhang Fan immediately discovered that something was wrong, S City, as an international metropolis, has been developed for so many years, and the shortage of land has always been a major difficulty for it, how can there be such a desolate and open place! Zhang Fan looked at it here, the slightly withered yellow grassland reached the sky, and there was no sign of modernization!
"Where is this?" Zhang Fan wondered for a while, "Could it be that the robbers who robbed me used a plane to bring me to the prairie?" Zhang Fan laughed in his heart.
He looked at the sun, which was slightly closer to the center, found the east, and was about to walk on foot, when suddenly a headache hit him, and Zhang Fan rolled on the ground with his head in pain. A memory, a memory that does not belong to oneself is coming to me like a tide. After a while, the headache subsided, and Zhang Fan also opened his eyes in surprise, recalling a strange memory in his mind, but his heart was full of surprise.
In his mind, his name is Zhang Fan, his name is Yuande, he is from Anhua County, Qingyang Prefecture, and his ancestral home is Yangzhou Mansion. The year before last, at the age of sixteen, he took the college examination for the first time and won the show, and it was the first place. Now I am rushing to Qingyang County to take the triennial township examination. And what surprised Zhang Fan the most was that on his birthday, he clearly told himself in his memory: "Ming Jiajing is thirty years old, and he was born on June 17"! On the way to the exam, he met a robber, probably the former owner of his body had never seen such a scene, and he was scared to death. The entanglements on his body have been robbed, but fortunately, his current mother sewed a hidden bag on his underwear for the safety of her son and hid some silver taels, otherwise Zhang Fan would have to beg along the street!
Oh, my God! I actually crossed through very bloody! For the crossing itself, Zhang Fan has no rejection, he has read a few online novels in his spare time, and he is not unacceptable, but whatever, this happened to him, Zhang Fan just felt very bloody!
Zhang Fan didn't know what he was traveling for, but anyway, he should have been physically destroyed over there. Thinking that he would never be able to see his parents again, and that he would no longer be able to repay his parents' kindness, Zhang Fan was very sad. But as mentioned earlier, Zhang Fan is a very optimistic person, since God let him come here, then he can't waste this opportunity no matter what he says, he must break out of his own sky in this Ming Dynasty.
Zhang Fan immediately regretted it a little, knowing that he would come here, and if he killed Zhang Fan, he would not study any economics major, how good it would be to study history or something! In my spare time, I won't go so hard to learn any English, in this world where the Ming Dynasty is the first power, level 8 English has a fart! It's better to learn your craft. Zhang Fan was thinking about these things as he walked!
Zhang Fan not only inherited this body, but even accepted the memory of this body, this guy is also a hard-working person, and the family is not wealthy, but after his father died, his mother poured all her hopes into him, and sold many things in the family, just for Zhang Fan to study, but he helped others sew and mend and live a thrifty life. The year before last, Zhang Fan won the show, or the first place, the mother at home was very happy, this time Zhang Fan participated in the township test, the mother tried her best to make enough entanglement, and made a new dress for Zhang Fan.
Zhang Fan couldn't help but feel a little when he thought of this, pity the hearts of parents all over the world! I can't let this old man down. Fortunately, Zhang Fan remembered all the books that this body had read before, and he could even write them out word for word, Zhang Fan was suddenly full of confidence and strode in the direction of Qingyang Mansion.
