Chapter 163: A Red Heart
After agreeing with Zhou Jian, Chen Zhi returned to Chenjiatuan.
Chen Zhi suddenly went home, and the second elder was naturally very surprised, but after the surprise, he couldn't help but ask about the situation.
Old Chen Tou moved a chair and sat in the courtyard, and when he learned that Chen was about to rush to the United States in a few days, not only did he not see any reluctance, but he also smiled happily.
"I said Old Man Chen, are you really my grandfather? Do you hear that your child is going to travel far away, and you are happy to become such an elder! ”
Chen Zhi also moved a small bench to sit aside, and after seeing the old man's performance, he couldn't help but joke.
"You go out this time, it's like an old man, I went to the battlefield back then, this is a meritorious service, what am I reluctant to do!" Old Chen Tou said.
Although he is in good health, the wrinkles on his face still make people sigh at the carving art of the god of time after laughing.
Chen Zhi was immediately happy when he heard this, it seems that Zhou Jian has poisoned the old man too deeply, and until now, the old man still thinks that he is really going to win glory for the country.
It's not wrong to say that he is winning glory for the country, as long as he can play well in the NBA.
But in the past, the NBA playing was really not as great as the old man said.
First of all, the NBA world's largest basketball stage is the most desirable place in the hearts of every basketball player, and in addition, the business league is the essence of the NBA.
Saying that the NBA is a commercial league is definitely not slander or disdain for the NBA, this is its truest side, and it is this commerciality that makes the NBA the best basketball stage in the world, and it is a place that can instantly create a star, so there will be more young people with outstanding basketball talent to devote themselves to the sport of basketball. Of course, the good balance between commerciality and competitive fairness is an important reason why the NBA has been able to develop to the scale it is today, and it has been recognized by countless people.
After Chen Zhi smiled, he felt that it was still necessary to explain the truth to the old man: "Old man, in front of outsiders, don't win glory for the country one by one, lest people laugh at you." After all, I went to play in the NBA and got paid, and the salary was very high. ”
Old Chen raised his eyebrows when he heard this, "Is our family short of money?" Not a penny is missing! What is the purpose of not reading a good book and changing your career to play basketball, is to let you win glory for the country! As for the salary, it doesn't matter if you have it or not! ”
After finishing speaking, Lao Chen quietly approached Chen to his ear and lowered his voice: "You can only earn a few dollars by playing basketball, the old woman and I have already saved for you, it is enough to buy a house, get married and have children, as long as you live a good life, you don't have to worry for the rest of your life!" ”
Hearing this, Chen Zhi turned his head slightly, squinted his eyes and glanced at the old man, "Thoroughly, how much money have you saved for me?" ”
Hearing this, the old man looked at the open door, and when he saw that there was no one, he quietly stretched out two fingers to Chen Zhi.
Chen Zhi glanced at the old man's gesture, 200,000 or 20 million was impossible, obviously 2 million.
"Yo, old man, you are really not short of money! It's all stipend money, right? ”
Knowing that the old man has savings, and the amount of allowance every month is not small, the pile of medals on his chest is not just good-looking, but Chen Zhizhen didn't expect the old man to save such a amount.
"It's still a little short of this number, but it's not a few dollars, mainly because it's been given more in recent years. The big head is the allowance, and the rest is left by me and the old woman ourselves. If you go to play in the United States, then you will go to the battlefield to fight, don't think about making money, you know! We're not short of money! Who can say that we are not rushing to win glory for the country! ”
The old man picked up the big teacup on the side of the bench leg, and took a sip, what he drank was not tea, but an irrepressible pride.
Seeing this, Chen Zhi blinked and asked, "Old man, do you know how much money I can earn by playing?" ”
"I heard that the salary of the devil in the United States is higher than that of our Huaxia, how can I get more than 10,000 Huaxia coins a month, about 100,000 yuan a year, we are really not short of that money, what we want is to win the glory of the country, you have to play hard when you arrive, and promote the prestige of Huaxia in a foreign land!"
The old man looked at Chen Zhi's eyes seriously and said. The world has changed, but people's hearts have not changed, and his red heart is still shining.
Hearing the old man who had never read a book dragging a sentence of crepe, Chen Zhi couldn't help but smile and asked, "Who did you learn this word from?" ”
"I can often hear this when I resist rice and aid Korea, and now I don't mention it much!" The old man couldn't help but sigh with emotion, and the old man also knew that it was no longer the era it used to be.
"By the way, if you go to the United States, if you are not familiar with the place, you need to bring some money! I'll ask the old woman to dig out the money savings for you, and you can go and get some of it out tomorrow. Speaking of money, the old man suddenly remembered that he had to bring more money when he went out.
"Dig it out?" Chen Zhi was stunned when he heard this.
"Not really!" The old man had already stood up from the bench and leaned over to whisper in Chen Zhi's ear, "I put it in a glass bottle for canned food and buried it in the ground on the east side of the cow trough. ”
"Ginger is still old and spicy!" Chen Zhi sighed, this method is too simple, "You are so sitting, don't be busy." ”
Chen Zhi hurriedly pulled the old man to sit down again.
The old man looked at the sky, nodded and said, "Well, it's getting late today, and it's useless to take it out, so let's take it again tomorrow!" ”
Chen Zhi couldn't cry or laugh, so he had no choice but to say: "Old man, you haven't heard anything about it in the village?" ”
"What did you hear?" The old man looked at Chen Zhi puzzled and asked.
"A player donated three million to the school." Chen Zhi said calmly.
"The people in the village didn't have the leisure to talk about that, and there were a lot of donations." Old man Chen said disappreciatively.
Chen Zhi thought about it, Chen Jiatuan is too remote, there is basically no network, and it is normal not to know.
Glancing at the old man, waiting for his saliva to be swallowed and the cup on the ground, Chen Zhi said, "That player is your eldest grandson..."
Hearing this, Old Chen Tou turned his head to look at Chen Zhi's eyes, and the two looked at each other for a long time.
"Hahaha! Your kid has grown up, and I can't hold back my laughter for so long, I can't hold it back! ”
After a while, the old man finally broke the situation where the two looked at each other.
"Haha, huh!" Chen Zhi couldn't help but smile embarrassedly when he heard this, the old man didn't believe it at all!
After thinking about it, Chen Zhi didn't have the idea of proving it to the old man, but said, "Although I am not so rich, I really don't lack money. ”
"Really?" Old Chen Tou confirmed uneasily.
"Not really!" Chen Zhi replied with a smile.
Lao Chen is proud of the "huge" family property he left behind, so don't tell him the truth, otherwise his pride and satisfaction will be gone.
In the next few days, Chen Zhi and Zhou Jian applied for visas and installed Wi-Fi at home.
I bought two mobile phones for the second elder and installed WeChat, although he is abroad, he can also video chat with the second elder, and Chen Zhi will be much more relieved.
It's just that teaching the second elder to use a touch-screen mobile phone, that's really a lot of effort!
Today's time is tight, and tomorrow will be at least three shifts.
