Chapter 34: Fate
Liu Banxian is Yang Lei's master, and Yang Lei followed him to learn to do white things.
In fact, when it comes to the fate of the two masters and apprentices, it was made up by Chen Ziyang and Bai Shilao. When the two children were young, they always went to Lao Dao to play together, and Yang Lei, this kid, has also been chattering since he was a child, and he especially likes those gods, ghosts, and something. Like Chan Tsz-yeung, he also likes to watch some Hong Kong horror movies, especially Lin Zhengying's Maoshan Daochang series. The most terrible thing is that he is scared when he watches alone, every time he has to pull Chen Ziyang with him, and every time he watches, he is so frightened that he covers his eyes and looks through his fingers. Chen Ziyang's behavior to him can really be described as speechless, I'm afraid you don't look at it, it's over.
Because he has been influenced by Lao Dao and Chen Ziyang since he was a child, Yang Lei also especially wants to worship Lao Dao as a teacher and learn Taoism. It's a pity that Lao Dao didn't agree, and the reason for not agreeing, according to Chen Ziyang, is because Yang Lei's mother didn't make dumplings for Lao Dao. Later, after Yang Lei graduated from university, his father died, and Yang Lei's father's funeral was organized by Liu Banxian, at that time, Liu Banxian used the compass to find the acupoint for Yang Lei's father, Yang Lei also followed, and saw Liu Banxian's handsome appearance with a compass, Yang Lei worshipped him as a master as soon as he was excited. Yang Lei's mother is also very open-minded, and she doesn't think there is anything unlucky about helping people do white things, it's a craft anyway, and it is also a good thing to make money to supplement the family in her spare time.
Yang Lei picked up the cigarette that Chen Ziyang put on the table, lit one and said, "Why are you changing Yuxi to Changbai Mountain, the grade has come down." ”
"It's still grade, some of them are good to smoke, and if it goes on like this, I'm going to quit smoking."
"Hey, that's right, save a little. Eryang, you said that it has only been a few years, how can you be so virtuous in the mine. I think this mine was also full of scenery back then. Do you remember, the time when we were in the fifth or sixth grade of elementary school, the time when we bought a hard disk in the mine, what a scenery it was in the mine at that time. It's good now, I can't even get paid. Do we deserve to be poor for the rest of our lives? Yang Lei sighed.
Chen Zi Yang Ji's Yang Lei said that at that time, computers had just begun to be popularized in this town, and the computers used in the mine were 286,386,486 or something, the memory was 16 megabytes, 32 megabytes, 64 megabytes, and the hard disk was 1200 megabytes. At that time, a set of advanced equipment was introduced in the mine, which could monitor the internal temperature of the steelmaking blast furnace at all times. Take many monitoring points in the blast furnace, install monitoring equipment, and convert the temperature parameters of these monitoring points into data and transmit them to the system for storage for future analysis and real-time monitoring, which requires a large amount of hard disk storage space.
At that time, the most commonly used hard disk was 512M, in fact, there were even bigger ones, but the price was much more expensive. But even if it is a 512M hard drive, the price of a piece is several thousand, which is higher than the price of a home computer with a better configuration including a monitor. In the 90s, a hard disk cost thousands of dollars a piece, and at that time, the mine bought not hundreds of dollars, not thousands of dollars, but two trucks! Two whole large cargo trucks! That's a lot of money.
Chen Ziyang recalled the scene back then, looked at the few pedestrians in the town now, and said, "Luck." My master told me that fate is a very magical thing, although it is called fate, but fate and fortune are separated, fate is the mainstay, and fortune complements each other. A person's life is predestined from birth, and there is no way to change it. And luck is acquired and can be changed. The so-called statement of changing one's life against the sky is actually inaccurate, and it should be a change of fortune against the sky. In my master's words, this person's life is like a road, the better the life, the smoother the road; And this luck is like a car, the better the luck, the better the car. ”
It was the first time for Yang Lei to hear such a novel statement, so he hurriedly widened his eyes and listened.
"A person's good fortune is like driving a sports car and running on the highway, so good life and luck are combined with each other, which is a person's best destiny. If your fate is bad or bad, this will do, you can drive Alto at high speed, and the speed is okay; Fate is not good luck, just like if you drive a sports car on a dirt road in the countryside, no matter how good the car is, it is useless, and the speed cannot go up, so fate is the main thing. The next situation is to drive Alto on a dirt road, and you can swim slowly. ”
Chen Ziyang also lit a cigarette, and then said: "Life can't be changed, but this luck can be changed, and a person's luck is affected by other luck." As small as a family's fortunes, as large as a country's fortunes, or even the world's fortunes, can affect a person's fortunes. For example, a person is destined to be able to make a fortune at the age of 30, but when he is 30 years old, he catches up with the global economic crisis, not only does he not get rich, but he almost goes bankrupt, which is affected by other fortunes. But there should still be something, and when the economic crisis passes, it should be his money that can't run. The way we are in the mine is because of the current economic downturn in iron ore. As workers in the mine, we are affected by the fortune of our iron mine. It's not that our lives are bad, it's really bad luck. ”
"You kid, I'm convinced, you really didn't learn from your master in vain, just a fate can tell the flowers in your mouth, you can find a TV station to do a talk show in the future." Call me Yang Yanzi all day long, I think you are a big mouthful. Yang Lei said.
"Don't entertain me, you're good, your master Liu Banxian is gone, if anyone has a white job in the future, they won't have to look for you, doing this can earn more than going to work, and I will have to call you Yang Banxian in the future." But seriously, your master's white business is your way. ”
"I did it, and I came to you for this. As soon as the cooking was done, I came over. You say it's a coincidence, yesterday. I had a fight with my daughter-in-law, my daughter-in-law dropped my compass in a fit of anger, and I can't use Liu Banxian's compass, there are rules in this business, and the guy who eats can't borrow anything, not to mention that his compass has to be put in the coffin. I want to borrow our grandmother's envoy, our grandmother's compass is a good object, pure copper, I have never seen such a good compass sold. This is the first time I've been a serious manager, you borrowed that compass from me, and I supported the scene. ”
"You two are fighting again, and you can't be annoyed every day. I'll get it for you later, and I'll give it to you when I'm done. ”
"I'm going to buy things, I'll let you go here after you're done in a while, and I'll be happy with you, and I'll go up the mountain with me tomorrow to draw a line, and earn him five hundred yuan for cigarettes." Improve and improve, this thing is cheaper, others are not as cheap as you. You can take the compass with you when you go tomorrow. ”
"You work hard this time, sell your strength, and after you do a good job, there will be more people looking for you to do things."
"Okay, I'm going to get busy, I'll go first, you'll borrow it in a while, don't make anything wrong." After Yang Lei finished speaking, he turned around and left.
After all, it was what the good buddies asked for, and Chen Ziyang also got up and walked to his grandmother's house after Yang Lei left.
