Ouyang walked along the lakeside path, quite carelessly, she still held an apple in her hand, and she was still nibbling on it regardless of her image.

Zhu Tong didn't speak, just walked quietly with her.

Ouyang turned the apple into a skinny kernel again, and threw the kernel far into the lake with his hand, shattering the most brilliant golden waves. The ripples are still golden.

"The dusk here is longer than in Shanghai." Ouyang stopped, looked at the ripples he had made, opened his arms and said loudly; "I wish there was gold all over the lake."

Zhu Tong smiled and said, "It's useless that this lake is all gold." ”

"Why?" Ouyang asked with a sideways face.

As soon as the setting sun sank into the sunset, a touch of afterglow was passing through Ouyang's face, dividing her face into two distinct parts: light and dark. At the front of the light, you can see a little bit of soft fluff trembling slightly, and a little bit of golden light spots are playfully jumping and shining between the fluffs. The most dazzling thing was the golden brilliance that shimmered in her eyes.

Zhu Tong reminded himself that Ouyang had gone mad, in a state of half-dreaming and half-awake excitement, and ordinary words could not move her at all; The only thing she knows is her position in the Phoenix Fund, not only to Blossom and Haruko, but also to herself a little resistant.

"Ahem! First of all, if this lake is really all gold, it has nothing to do with you and me. Zhu Tong cleared his throat and said; You should understand that the lake, and everything here, belongs to the provincial government. In other words, state-owned assets. ”

"yes;" Ouyang muttered.

"This lake has more than 100 acres;" Zhu Tong bent down to pick up two pieces of gravel and threw them separately, splashing two splashes. He added: "Look, the depth of the water at thirty meters is about three meters, and the central area can only be deeper. Ouyang, you used to be an economic expert, think about it: what does the sudden appearance of such a huge amount of gold mean for the world, for China, and even for you personally? ”

Ouyang pondered for a moment and said: "For the world, if so much gold suddenly appears, it will have a huge impact on the current financial pattern, which will shake or even destroy the foundation of the financial industry and completely change the pattern of world finance." The more gold a country has, the greater the downgrade. It was a catastrophe that would lead to a series of after-effects, including currency depreciation and national credit bankruptcy, which would eventually spread to every corner of the world; A lot of people will go bankrupt because of it, and the chaos will cause many more lives to be lost. ”

"Well, what does it mean for the country and the individual?" Zhu Tong saw a familiar feeling in Ouyang's eyes, which was the light of thinking and reason.

"For the country to suddenly get such a large amount of wealth, the first thing to do is, of course, to keep it secret; The second step is to analyze and evaluate; The third step is to ...... at a proper pace No, it is a sharp and bloodthirsty magic sword, no matter how well thought out and how well prepared, if you release it, it will hurt your body. It is impossible for the highest absolute master, no one can master it. I'm so stupid, how could I have thought that just now? If this lake were all gold and belonged to me, I am afraid that I would not have lived until tomorrow. ”

"Maybe there's another possibility." Zhu Tong carefully observed the increasing rationality in Ouyang's eyes and said; "Think of it as a legacy, and take it out little by little in a planned way."

"That'...... There are only theoretical possibilities. Such a huge fortune cannot be decided by one person or a few people. Everyone who knows about it has a variety of plans and wants to use it for a variety of purposes. Secrets related to wealth have always been accompanied by greed and blood. It's huge, big enough to completely change a person's mind. Once the news gets out, disaster is inevitable. ”

After Ouyang finished speaking, he lowered his head and stared at his toes with a somewhat ugly face.

She knew very well what Zhu Tong meant by this, but she didn't dare to admit a sad fact.

"Tell me what you've been up to lately, let me persuade you, pay attention to your body, don't get tired." Zhu Tong paused for a moment and said again.

"We are implementing a plan; In five years, the Phoenix Foundation will build a girls' school in all provincial capitals across the country to provide education opportunities for out-of-school girls who meet the conditions for assistance......" As she spoke, Ouyang's eyes flashed with enthusiasm again, and she grabbed Zhu Tong's sleeve and couldn't help but speed up.

It can be seen that this is not the first time that Ouyang's rather inflammatory words have been said, and his emotions and rhythm are quite skillfully controlled.

Zhu Tong listened quietly, and Ouyang nodded frequently when he talked about some specific numbers; When Ouyang described the miserable plight of the poor girls, he would also let out a few sighs.

The warm-colored floor lights on the lawn are lit up one after another, and they go around the lake, which is particularly beautiful.

Ye Er walked along the lakeside path, and from a distance, Zhu Tong gestured to her not to come over for the time being.

Ouyang also saw Ye Er turn around and leave, but he didn't say anything, and continued to talk about her plan. It's easy to wait for Ouyang to finish speaking, and it is already dark.

"How? It's great, isn't it? Ouyang asked excitedly.

"No wonder you're so busy;" Zhu Tong already knew about Ouyang's "great plan", but he still pretended to be relished; "That sounds good, where is it now?"

"There are three schools that have been repaired, one in Phoenix, one in Chongqing, and one locally. There are also three that are under construction. ”

"It's really expensive to build infrastructure." Zhu Tong nodded in understanding.

"There is nothing to talk about, thanks to the long greetings, the government is out of the land, we are contributing money, people, and ......efforts," Ouyang became more and more interested, describing the prospects and great significance of these schools in a swift voice.

Zhu Tong waited patiently for her to finish and asked; "Aside from the schools that are being built and will be built, what about the sound sources of the schools that are already open for business? Where do the teachers come from? How much money does it cost per month? ”

"The one in Phoenix was our first school, and now there are eighteen classes in the sixth grade, with about 50 students in each class. There are 58 teachers and administrators, a third of whom are unpaid volunteers. According to the calculation of 500 yuan per student per month, the amount of money spent on them every month is fixed, about 500,000 yuan. Since the school was a rented school building, the office expenses and teachers' salaries, including rent, were required to be 500,000 yuan. School rents are too expensive and are rising almost every day. Therefore, we will adhere to one purpose in the future, we must build our own school......"

When she reached another paragraph, Zhu Tong cautiously asked: "One school in each provincial capital, that means thirty schools?" ”

He was already a little scared, the reason why Ouyang had spent money so much recently was not because of the construction of new schools, most of the funds from the Phoenix Fund were used by her to increase teaching equipment for the three schools that had been in operation, and to improve the living conditions and living environment of students and teachers.

According to the design of the school building and the internal facilities planned by Ouyang, it is completely a noble school. No wonder it costs so much, even with his arrogance, he has to think twice about building three at the same time. And Ouyang, to build at least thirty.

"At least thirty." Ouyang waved his arms and said.

"The local government must be grateful to the Phoenix Foundation and welcome you to open a school, right?"

"It's not all ah;" Ouyang said distressedly; "Everything else is easy to say, but it will be difficult to build a school on land. It is good to say here that the Phoenix School in Chongqing is a private school that we acquired. Chongqing and Wuhan, I and lawyer Zhang ran I don't know how many times, the flowers grinding a long phone call to barely do it, although the place is out of the way, but with the city exhibition will always be good. The school in Chengdu was the most strenuous one, and if it weren't for the pressure of public opinion, there would be no hope at all. ”

It turned out that what lawyer Ouyang and Zhang Xuedan did in the previous paragraph was to put pressure on the local government. Zhu Tong was amused in his heart, but he couldn't laugh, and said: "Have you thought about it, why does the local government only sell the land?" Taking care of their own people is the responsibility of local governments. Phoenix Fund does what they should do, and it is they who should be thanked, not you! ”

"But, but, I can wait, those children can't wait." With two tears in his eyes, Ouyang shouted incoherently; "It's not that I don't know what you're saying, but I can't look at it...... Still...... But he did nothing but watched...... I can't do it. ”

"Ouyang, you're too tired." Zhu Tong put his hand on her shoulder, and with a gentle pull, Ouyang leaned into his arms; "No one is irreplaceable, there is no savior in the world, never has been, don't put too much pressure on yourself. All things in heaven and earth have their own reasons for survival. Out-of-school girls are pitiful, but since they have come into this world, the life instinct naturally gives them the energy they need to survive. What the Phoenix Fund has to do is just push, not take full responsibility. Sit down and I'll tell you my story. ”

Zhu Tong helped Ouyang find a piece of fairly thick turf and sat down, sat opposite him, lit a cigarette, and whispered about his experience.

As Zhu Tong spoke, Ouyang's emotions calmed down. She was gradually attracted and deeply involved in Zhu Tong's legendary experience of transforming from a wandering little liar to a "miracle doctor Li Xiang".

"According to general logic, people who have had the same experience as me should stay in prison and be reformed now, right?" After speaking, Zhu Tong asked with a smile.

Ouyang shook his head: "You have a good master and a good mother. ”

"However, what Master taught me the most was to be deceived and abducted; From the age of three, I had to take responsibility for every meal I had to eat. Tears and deception were the only tools I had at my disposal. My mother left me with Master for a reason that I still have a hard time understanding, and I could easily find a way to defuse those ridiculous threats. But if I think about it, the world they live in is different from the world now, and if my father was as sinister and cunning as I was, and my mother was a vain little woman, I wouldn't be there. Giving me life, and having a baby in October is already the greatest gift she has given me. ”

"You're different from everyone else, you have a different mind. No matter what kind of education you have, you will eventually get to this point. ”

"You are wrong, Master told me that he deliberately did not let me touch any books. He also deliberately let me get that dictionary, and deliberately used all kinds of tricks to interfere and hit me when I was studying. Master said that a wife is not as good as a concubine, and a concubine is not as good as stealing; What you learn by sneaking in must go deep into your bone marrow, and you can't forget it if you want to. Under his oppression, although I was still a little far from remembering, I finally managed to do it at a glance. ”

Ouyang laughed "poof"; "Sounds reasonable. Your master is so interesting, I want to meet him, is that okay? ”

"No problem, I'll introduce you to you when I have the chance. Ha, he likes pretty ladies the most, especially you who are educated, temperamental, and idealistic urban beauties. ”

"Sir teased, the way I look now, where do I say it's beautiful." Ouyang twisted and pulled his clothes, but fortunately the lights were dim.

"Every life is selfish, and in order to survive, it is natural to use all kinds of means to deduce different wonderful. Ouyang, I often feel that too much attention must be all good things. "Seeing that Ouyang was about to argue, Zhu Tong didn't give her the slightest chance, and waved his hand to stop him;" You're done listening to me! As I remember, you used to be the best listener. ”

Ouyang nodded, and Zhu Tong continued; "During the Chinese New Year, I accompanied my mother to Wanghai Pharmaceutical, and the damage to that beach was not large, but more than a dozen people were drowned in the flood. Five of them are flowering teenagers. You know, they have lived by the sea for generations, and they can't even swim! ”

"It's no wonder, I can't swim." Ouyang said thoughtfully; "I'm afraid of water."

"Because you've been so well taken care of." Zhu Tong joked: "Children who grow up by the sea are not afraid of water by nature; This is a gift from nature. I spent my entire teenage years there, and in those summers, our favorite thing for a bunch of naughty boys was to play in the water, and no one taught us to swim, but we were able to dive to the bottom of the sea at a depth of 10 meters. At that time, children were not as expensive as they are now, and adults did not interfere with us. It's only been more than ten years, and I asked a friend at that time, and he said that not many children dare to go to the sea now. The five who drowned had never been to the sea since childhood. ”

"What are you going to say?" Ouyang stood up and gritted his teeth and glared at Zhu Tong.

"As far as I know, Ouyang's mother left when you were very young, do you hate her?"

"Of course, I will never forgive her for the rest of my life."

"That's the difference between us." Zhu Tong looked to the east and said softly: "I don't hate my mother. ”

"That's different, I ...... She ran away with a rich man. ”

"As an individual, it's not wrong for her to do that."

"But she has children, and she has me."

"For you, she has to give up her ideals and give everything?" Zhu Tong asked solemnly; "You are also selfish, you don't have such a right. Your father was a good father, but from what I have observed, he is not a good husband. ”

Ouyang was dumbfounded, pointing at Zhu Tong and trembling.

Zhu Tong ignored her feelings and continued: "What I want to say is that all lives are selfish, and that is their right. This is true for individuals, for groups, and even more so for countries. Selfishness is the foundation of a life based on the world, and only after satisfying the most basic living conditions of an individual can we talk about anything else. Ouyang, you are a person with great love and selflessness. But there is Huaxia behind you, and your father provides you with basic living conditions. In order to survive, the Phoenix Fund can't be as selfless as you; In order to survive, the Phoenix Foundation must be selfish so that it can survive for a longer period of time to help more out-of-school girls in need.

"As an individual, people like me, who have never suffered in your eyes, have also tasted the bitter fruits of selflessness, and some people seem to be pitiful, but they are actually acting. The only time I missed was when I was deceived by a liar with high acting skills. As a country, if China were selfless, I would not stay here. A country that does not know how to take care of its own people will die sooner or later. That kind of great love that transcends borders, races, and humility is just a legend. Ouyang, you let me see it, you are the legend. However, the Phoenix Fund cannot be turned into a legend. ”

Ouyang stood there dumbfounded, his mind blank.

Zhu Tong pierced a thin layer of things in her heart, countless things poured in, and many places that were not clear before suddenly became clear.

"You're too cruel 6" After saying this, Ouyang's head leaned softly on Zhu Tong's shoulder and cried silently.
