46. Entering college for the first time - money
In the blink of an eye, the Mid-Autumn Festival came, the Li family had dinner, and Tang Zhen and Tao were chatting together; Brothers Li Bonan and Li Zhongnan took Keding and Kejing brothers and sisters to admire the moon in the courtyard.
Li Bonan asked Li Keding: "Do you pay attention to society in college?" β
Keding replied: "I have always paid attention to it, this is the teaching requirement of the school, not only to know about current affairs, but also to have my own analysis and opinion. β
Forming his own opinion, Li Bonan agreed very much, nodded and said: "That's good, don't just focus on studying, you study economics, I hope you can take care of the family's business in the future, but if it is divorced from reality, business will not be able to do." Especially over the years, there have been too many changes, maybe if something is not handled well, it will get into trouble. β
Can you still get into trouble doing business? It was the first time Li Kejing had heard of it, but what the uncle said was serious, and he was puzzled, so he asked: "Is it still so dangerous to do business?" Then let's stop doing it. β
Li Bonan looked at Ke Jing with a smile and said: "What a stupid child, how can you do it if you don't do it, people are often coerced forward." At present, all kinds of things have to cost money, the expenses are too large, and our family's land income is far from being able to support it, so we must find a way to open source, and it is dangerous to make ends meet. β
The second master, Li Zhongnan, also said to his daughter: "Kejing, don't think that our family only has living expenses, and there are some other things that you don't know yet, and you need more money to do it." β
Li Bonan has passed most of his life, and he has a deep understanding of the hardship of not having money, and if you want to achieve something, you must rely on money, so he said to Kejing with emotion: "Your father is right, we need more money, so I plan to resign from the Ministry of Education as soon as possible, and go back to the river with your aunt to take care of the fields." β
Uncle has been working hard in the Ministry of Education, and suddenly said that he was going to resign, which surprised Ke Jing, so he asked Li Bonan: "Uncle, do you have to go back?" If you can't do things at home, why should you resign? β
Li Bonan understands the truth of doing something and not doing something, and also knows the wisdom of giving up, the so-called world is difficult to do both, thinking that the children are still young, it is inconvenient to explain too much, so he said to Kejing: "Now your third uncle has gone to join the army, there is no one in charge at home, and the housekeeper can keep it, but the development is lacking, you don't understand this, and you will know if you experience some things in the future." The best of both worlds, it is rare to have a good thing since ancient times, and at a critical moment, people need to give up some superficial brilliance. β
In fact, Ke Jing can understand, but the uncle is reluctant to do political affairs and follow the agricultural business, it is estimated that their ideals are difficult to realize, and they need more financial support, so they decided to make such a choice, but it is inconvenient to say to our children, hum! They always think that we haven't grown up, and although they are unhappy in their hearts, they have to say: "I don't care about that anyway, even if you worry about it, do you just think you have to make so many industries?" In the future, it will be handed over to Keding, and he will be tired enough, I'm afraid he won't be able to do it well? Then he smiled and said, "Unless, he can marry a good daughter-in-law to help support our family." β
Bernan looked at Keding, the so-called knowing son Mo Ruo's father, what Kejing said is actually not unreasonable, with Keding's temperament, it is not suitable for the left and right, let alone strategizing and controlling everything, but pinning his hopes on the future daughter-in-law, I am afraid it is not realistic, so he said: "He is lucky to have a good daughter-in-law, but this is something that can not be encountered, or it is better to have the ability yourself." I don't believe it, none of the four brothers can support the family business. β
Zhong Nan listened to his eldest brother's words, although his ambition was commendable, but it did not conform to reality, so he said, "Big brother, don't be optimistic. I don't think Kexiu will become a gentleman in the future, and our family will have to burn high incense. As for the Kezhi and Keping brothers, they have been rough since childhood, and they must be brave and unscrupulous, and it is difficult to achieve great things. Only Keding can still be counted on, exercise him more. When the holiday is over, let him go to Tianjin and familiarize himself with the situation there first. β
Bo Nan looked at the sky, saw a dark cloud drifting by, half covering the face of the moon, a shadow suddenly rose in his heart, and said to Zhong Nan: "The second brother is reasonable, this should be the biggest concern of our family, and we have to be cautious. Only planning early is a long-term solution. Keding, remember your second uncle's words, when the winter holiday is over, go to Tianjin first. β
Inheriting the legacy of his ancestors, Li Keding thought that this was the most important thing, thinking that he was still very naΓ―ve, and he had to go through more ups and downs to grow up, so he said: "Father, rest assured, I will go to Tianjin this time, and I will live up to the teachings and study and understand with my heart." β
Li Keding's humility made Li Bonan very pleased, and he also intended to test his son's knowledge, and asked Li Keding: "Now many people are persuading Yuan Shikai to change the republic, what do you think?" β
This question has been spread behind the scenes, and people of insight have long been thinking about it, and Li Keding has also thought about it carefully, and immediately replied smoothly: "I think this move is unpopular and will not succeed." Zhong Nan smiled and said: "It's not easy for you to point to the result and say it decisively." β
