Chapter 15 People Need Ideals
Zhang Yi thought that his life should be spent like this, when he was old and recalled the past, he would not regret because he had wasted his time, nor would he be ashamed of his past inaction. At the time of his death, he was able to say, "My whole life and all my energies have been devoted to the most magnificent cause in the world." "There will be no regrets.
Zhang Yi seemed to hear the call of the coal miners: I couldn't get the sun or breathe fresh air all year round, and one day I dug the coal pile as high as a hill, and my miners and I sat on the coal pile drinking wine and basking in the sun. It's like hearing the white-collar workers of the company say: my job makes me often sit in the office and stare at the computer, I dream of going to work, the subway and bus are not so crowded, the house price is not rising so fast, and I can find a girlfriend. A certain leader dreams of working so that I often drink Moutai and Lafite, which makes my appetite very good, our oil prices have risen higher than those in the United States, and profits have changed as much as a balloon, and my friends and I sat leisurely in the Forbidden City and bragged and chatted. The vegetable farmer fantasizes that the vegetables I grow can be sold at a good price and not rot in the ground, that the watermelons will not explode on their own, that the weather will not be dry and waterlogged for a while, and that my daughter-in-law and I can earn money for our children to go to college.
The construction worker said that my work made me often run around and work at heights, which made me tired, and I dreamed that the building I repaired was like a big pants, the theater was like an egg, and the stadium was like a bird's nest, and my co-workers and I would receive our wages on time every month. The small merchant and hawker said that my work made me often beaten by the chengguan, fined, beaten and scolded, which made me a frightened bird, I dreamed that they treated us kindly, spoke kindly, and served civilly, and I became good friends with them and lived in harmony. The college entrance examination candidate said that my work made me study hard all day long, do homework, which made me want to take a break after the exam as soon as possible, I dreamed that my essay was a full score, and the others were also full marks, and the school major was chosen at will, and my classmates and I would happily go to college together in the future.
Zhang Yi knows that dreams are not more to get and achieve, but the people who love you are proud of you and proud of you from the heart. Hearing the above dreams, what are my dreams? Zhang Yi now has some abilities beyond ordinary people, and he should be able to realize many dreams, but now he is at a loss, what does he need? What's next?
Zhang Yi thought of Xiao Jing, his heart was shocked again, he suddenly seemed to wake up like a dream, if I don't do something, wouldn't I be sorry for this rebirth? I have more than 30 years of social experience, I can gain insight into the development trend of electronic technology and network industry, why can't I make some contribution to the country's reform and opening up? Although there is a time when Zhang Yi hates these moths to the core, you can say that the rulers do not care about the lives of the people, or you can scold the people in power for being corrupt and lawless. But our nation is great, we all have to be proud of him, he also has a reason for us to be proud of him, the inheritance of five thousand years of civilization is not so simple, how many hot-blooded men shed their blood for him, unity, hard work is to make this calamity and hardships of the nation, standing on top of the world.
If I just drift with the flow and achieve nothing, then I have become a sinner through the ages who has an opportunity but is not sure? If God can let me come to this world through hardships, is it just for me to be reborn once? Why me and not anyone else? Why choose me, a worthless little person? God definitely doesn't have mercy on you, he is fair to everyone, open a window for you, and he will definitely close a door for you!
Let you be reborn now, it is certainly not that you have no purpose, if you really still have nothing, that is, you are sorry for God's favor for you, be careful that God will give you back to the accident again, and let you lose everything, then you should regret it!
Just when Zhang Yi was getting rid of his dazedness, a box suddenly floated in front of him, why was it so weird, as if it was as weird as a ghost in broad daylight, Zhang Yi had to ask Xiao Jing: "What's going on with this box?" ”
"For you, see what?" Xiao Jing had no choice but to respond, he was really afraid of frightening Zhang Yi, in fact, he didn't know that Zhang Yi's current state was a bit of a Taishan collapse without being surprised, like this strange thing Zhang Yi really didn't take it seriously, but he just started to feel strange, and he was not frightened.
Zhang Yi opened it and looked, relying on the tablet, how did he come out? Now the computer is still 386, how can the tablet be there, it still appears out of thin air, fortunately, Zhang Yi's nerves are relatively large, and he will definitely be paralyzed by being a person. However, Zhang Yi is still a little worried, this time it is a tablet that comes out, will Sadako suddenly appear next time!
"This tablet is the latest and has a lot of features, which can allow you to check information, bank transfers, stock operations, write songs, print anything. And don't worry about losing it, I can know it's there anytime, anywhere, and I can keep it for you for free when you don't use it. Little Crystal introduces this new product.
My buddy and I were stunned! Zhang Yi couldn't calm down, and immediately wanted to try this new function, but his heart disappeared silently, the spiritual power in his brain began to boil, and the nearby things disappeared all at once, Zhang Yi's heart almost collapsed, why were the beds, tables, school bags, and textbooks all gone? Where did they go? Can you get it back?
"Stupid, you have to think about the tablet, or you can't understand what it is? So it's all gone. Xiao Jing was also drunk, so she had to continue to teach Zhang Yi how to operate, otherwise I don't know if Zhang Yi would have lost the house, so how to explain it?
Under the nagging of Xiao Crystal, Zhang Yi finally knew how to operate, and he had a lot of fun there, only to see that things disappeared for a while, and then reappeared after a while, and finally he was tired of playing, so he slowly fell asleep.
Finally, I am looking forward to the Spring Festival on January 1 every year, and the school will start to have a holiday, and what students want to look forward to most is the holiday, so that they don't have to go to school and can sleep carefree. Zhang Yi decided to take his grandmother and his family to check his body on vacation, and his grandmother died of stomach cancer in the future, so check it now just in case, if you find it, you can treat it early and in time, and it won't be delayed until the late stage to find out, so what's the use.
"Dad, Mom, how about our family go to the county seat tomorrow to check our health?" Zhang Yi wanted to discuss it with his parents, Zhang Yi felt that this matter was a good thing, and his parents would definitely not object.
"Okay, let your mother take you, I won't go." Zhang Yi's father said very simply that life in the countryside is relatively difficult, and he can only save money to support his family.
Zhang Yi knew that his father was disgusted with spending money, and now the conditions at home are indeed not very good, and he can save a little bit, Zhang Yi had no choice but to tell him about selling songs, just say a little less about the price, otherwise his parents will be very worried.
"Let's go as a family, last time I wrote a few songs and sold them for thousands of dollars, I didn't give them to you, and I still have them here." Zhang Yi said that a figure that his parents could accept, otherwise the family would be worried.
"Ahh Don't learn to steal chickens and dogs outside! The mother said with concern, I am really afraid that my son will learn badly from some people.
"Son, why do you want to do it right, do it straight, it doesn't matter if you are poor or hard, don't let people poke the backbone of the old Zhang family!" Dad also continued, obviously not believing that Zhang Yi could sell songs for money, and there were so many, which a worker could only save without eating or drinking for a year.
"Mom and Dad, don't think nonsense, I definitely didn't steal chickens and dogs outside, you see, I have a contract here, you have to believe me, I will never embarrass you." Zhang Yi hurriedly took the contract and showed it to his parents, Zhang Yi was afraid that his parents would ask about money, so he had already asked Manager Li of Rolling Stone to help write 2 contracts, which was only 5,000 yuan, which was used to pass the level of his parents. I didn't expect it to be used again, otherwise Zhang Yizhen wouldn't have been able to explain the origin of so much money, my father only went to school for three years, and I didn't know some words at all, Zhao Jun graduated from junior high school, so I had to read it out to my father word by word.
"Really, there is also the stamp of the Rolling Stone, the son did not lie to us." Zhao Jun happily told Zhang Tianyuan that at that time, people were still relatively simple, and stamping a seal was authority, and no one didn't believe it, unlike later generations who dared to engrave the Central Guard Bureau with a white radish, why is this gap so big?
"Son, you have grown up、、、" Mom looked at Zhang Yi and shed happy tears! I didn't expect my son to be able to earn so much money with such great ability, at least to solve the family's urgent needs, it's incredible.
"Son, you actually finished such a big thing secretly, and you haven't told us yet, is it itching?" Zhang Tianyuan threatened Zhang Yi just to teach Zhang Yi a lesson, and he couldn't tell them anything in the future.
In this era, 5,000 yuan is already a lot, and the bride price for a daughter-in-law is only 2,600 yuan, and you can only buy a few clothes. Unlike the bride price of 150,000 yuan in 2015, not counting houses, cars, gold rings, gold necklaces, etc., of course, it is impossible not to buy clothes. Now the monthly salary of workers is more than 400, it is still a state-owned unit, the annual income of farmers is only 600 yuan, and most of it is not cash, Zhang Tianyuan is also very surprised to see his son take out so much money, this is a civil servant's salary for more than a year without eating or drinking, I don't know if all the things in the family can be sold for so much money?
"Son, I'll save this money for you to go to school." Zhao Jun hurriedly locked the money in the box and prepared to take it to the bank tomorrow to deposit it. It's not that his son is still young, Zhao Jun may say that this money will be kept for you to marry a daughter-in-law.
"Mom, let's use this for the family, I'll talk about it when I go to school, it's a big deal to write a few more songs." Zhang Yi began to get nervous again, and he didn't care about his father's face at all.
"You think the money is so easy to make, look at your father, working on the construction site, how much is it a month, you must save money when you make money, you know?" Zhao Jun began a glorious traditional education, in the era of his mother, there was no food and clothing, Zhang Yi didn't know how people in that era survived anyway, in the war years, there was no food and no clothing, and the enemy sent it to us, in the era of peace, we could only rely on our own hard-working hands.
"Okay, I'll listen to you in the future, save it." Zhang Yi had to deal with his mother, he really couldn't stand it, and a lot of preaching made Zhang Yi's head many times bigger.
The next morning, I continued to exercise, ate the love breakfast made by my mother, which was actually porridge steamed buns and sauerkraut, and accompanied my mother to the bank to deposit the 5,000 yuan. I took my grandmother and younger brother and the whole family happily to the county seat, Zhang Yi's house is 30 miles away from the county seat, and it takes half an hour to arrive by car.
Zhang Yi's county is a key county of national poverty alleviation work, known as Longzhou in history, is a border county in the west, the territory of the Sichuan plain is narrow, the mountains and ravines are deep, the terrain is dangerous, it is one of the main passes leading to the northwest in Guanzhong, it is the place where the ancient soldiers must fight, and it is known as the "key to Guanshan" in ancient times. It has a long history, as far back as 6,000 years ago in the Neolithic period, the ancestors of the Yellow Emperor and the Yan Emperor flourished in the valley of the thousand rivers.
It is rich in resources, such as apples, peppers, walnuts, lacquer, fungus, flue-cured tobacco and American ginseng, musk, schisandra and other precious Chinese medicinal materials. Long-flame coal, limestone, marble, lead, zinc, molybdenum and other mineral resources are abundant. It can be said that there are a lot of valuable things here, but the income of the peasants is really pitiful, basically the apples, walnuts, American ginseng, etc., which are grown by the peasants, are purchased at a pitiful price, so they can only earn a hard fee. Year after year, no one planted any more farmers, and all those who had physical strength went to find another way to make a living, leaving only the elderly and children at home, and it became a famous base for the elderly and children to stay behind.
When he arrived at the county seat, Zhang Yi decisively made an excuse and said that he had something to do with a classmate and slipped away, Zhang Tianyuan originally wanted to stop Zhang Yi, but he looked at the guy who ran faster than a rabbit, leaving only a back and didn't make a sound. Zhang Tianyuan knew that Zhang Yi had no classmates in the county at all, and he had learned to deceive people, looking at how to clean you up when he went home, Zhang Tianyuan saw that there was no longer Zhang Yi, so he had to give up, and now it was too late to chase after him.
Zhao Jun helped Zhang Yi's grandmother and Zhang Cheng, his younger brother who was looking around, to go to the county people's hospital, and the medical equipment here was the best in the county, so Zhang Yi decisively chose here.
After Zhang Yi separated from his parents, he found the bank according to the memory of later generations, and now there are only rural credit cooperatives, postal savings, and agricultural banks in the county, in this era, farmers have no money, the bank's business is not good, no one queues up, directly take out his father's ID card to the counter to handle a bank account, and there are also those who do not use ID cards, the bank will issue an invoice, as long as the invoice is used to withdraw money in the future, the bank will not care whether this person is the one who saves money, and safety cannot be guaranteed. That's why Zhang Yi used his father's ID card to handle it. It's just that the bank staff looked at me curiously, then looked at the ID card, and whispered, "Why doesn't it look like it?" ”
Zhang Yi fainted directly, Auntie, your eyes are gone, you haven't woken up yet, aren't you reading the newspaper to see the dazzle, right? But Zhang Yi didn't dare to say it, he could only think about it in his heart, didn't they all say that these civil servants said that they went to work to read newspapers, drink tea, brag, and fight landlords until they got off work, why is this quite serious, but their eyes are not very good, am I so old?
Zhang Yi put the backpack on the counter and took out the pile of big blue cattle (100 yuan was blue before) in the bag, and the aunt who handled the business was stunned, this is not a small amount! Just let a little kid get a deposit in the bank, I don't know what this adult thinks.
"Little brother, where is your family?" The bank staff asked curiously.
"Went to the hospital, we just parted at the door." Zhang Yi can see that this staff member is very good, and he just cares about it.
"That's good, it's too unsafe for you to bring so much money." The aunt kindly said that she quickly put the banknotes into the money detector.
"Thank you, Auntie, I won't dare next time." Zhang Yi is still very moved, people in this era are not as indifferent as later generations, the elderly and children fall and no one helps, thieves, robbers, etc., and no one takes the initiative to help, each sweeps the snow in front of his own house, and cares about the frost on the tiles of others!
