Chapter 124. Communication between old fathers

Zhou Jinru looked at the guards holding sharp blades in front and behind, several of them had just moved, with a heavy blood on their bodies, and sighed: "Mr. Timos has something to say, I just listen." ”

Russell looked at Zhou Jinru and shook his head slightly: "Compared with before, you are too different. ”

He took out a pocket watch from his coat and opened it with a snap, revealing a group photo of a family of three, a middle-aged man and a young woman, holding their babies in swaddling clothes.

"In my younger days, men were proud of top hats and pocket watches, just like the personal terminals that young people carry with them now."

Russell put the photo in front of Zhou Jinru, and his tone was a little nostalgic: "This is a photo of me and my wife, and my daughter." ”

Zhou Jinru looked at the yellowed photo and sighed: "It turns out that Mr. Timos has a wonderful family. ”

"That was before, my wife passed away not long after my daughter was born, and my daughter also had a serious pre-existing heart condition, and she was still old, and the doctor would get better in adulthood, but she needed expensive drugs to keep her life going."

Russell slowly explained the reason, and solved the question in Zhou Jinru's heart, why did he go in person so late, it turned out that his daughter's life was involved.

"I understand Mr. Timos's actions now, I don't know the plot, I'm sorry."

Russell's old face showed some smiles: "Ha, so you're still sorry?!" ”

Zhou Jinru touched his nose in embarrassment, and every time he talked about these words, he could feel extremely embarrassed.

"My daughter is nineteen years old, but she still needs me to tell stories to sleep."

Russell talked about his daughter with a relieved smile on his face, and he looked like an old father.

Zhou Jinru nodded with deep understanding: "I can completely understand Mr. Timos's feelings, I usually have a bunch of children to take care of, and they write on my resume that they are 'good at taking care of children'." ”

This is a tacit story between two men.

Russell pulled out a glass of red wine from the side of the car seat and two glasses: "Drink a little with me?" ”

"I can't drink."

"I know, you can't drink spirits, but it's okay."

Russell broke the armrest and put the wine glass away, and after he bit the cork, he slowly poured two glasses of wine, and Zhou Jinru noticed that his hand had been trembling slightly when he poured the wine.

"It's a pleasure to see Mr. Ah Guang again, I salute you, cheers."

Russell held his glass, and he drank not at all like the gentlemen of St. Martin, but more like a worker in a bar after a workday.

Zhou Jinru smiled bitterly and took a drink, since Russell didn't hold it, he had no reason to do anything more.

The alcohol flowed down his throat and into his stomach, and Zhou Jinru found that his consciousness was a little blurred, and it seemed that even if it was red wine, he couldn't drink too much.

"If Ivanov knew that I drank this bottle of treasure with you, he would definitely scold."

As soon as Zhou Jinru heard this name, his slightly relaxed nerves suddenly tensed, it is impossible for a character at the level of Russell to maintain too much personal contact with cats and dogs, and the Ivanov in his mouth refers to Lin Xiaoxi, the former controller of the Brave New World.

"Mr. Lin didn't like his Ursatian name."

Zhou Jinru then added.

"Yes, you have to be right, but that was when he was alive, and he's dead now."

Russell smiled and poured two more glasses of wine, this time, he just picked it up and sniffed it, and didn't drink it directly.

"Mr. Aguang, do you know, I have always admired Ivanov, he has a clear goal, he seems to be a talent, he can easily achieve high achievements in everything, so he can change from a senior mechanic to a powerful figure in just a few decades."

Zhou Jinru pondered for a moment, he couldn't tell Russell the truth, the reason why Lin Xiaoxi achieved such an achievement was not only because of the tide of the times, but also a reborn.

He had no choice but to euphemistically: "Mr. Lin stands on the cusp of the tide of the times, we all know that even a pig can fly on the tuyere, and if he achieves achievements, he may not be able to do better if he is replaced by others." ”

"Hahahaha, Mr. Ah Guang, I'm really not used to you talking like this now, I still remember that when you first arrived in St. Aral, the first thing you did was to send someone to smash my garage, and then you are the only way I will come out to see you."

Russell smiled and took a sip, he seemed to be twenty years younger, and he had returned to the prime of his energetic life, Zhou Jinru was thinking about whether it was the effect of alcohol.

But Russell's next sentence was a change of words: "But when I met Ivanov, he was far less arrogant than you, when I was still the director of the workshop, he was just an unemployed senior mechanic, in vain, just a senior worker." ”

Zhou Jinru disagrees with Russell's view: "Senior workers can still live well in this world, and Rhode Island needs such talents very much." ”

In fact, the godfather who controls St. Al Alar, his achievements are not lower than Lin Xiaoxi, Lin Xiaoxi has the advantage of foresight, while Russell is a real sword.

"I know what you mean, but ...... Well, my daughter has recently liked some from Longmen, and I have read some of them, and the writing is very superficial, not literary, but some of the words are still very interesting, 'There are many holy steps like dogs, and demigods walk everywhere', at that time, St. Al was very similar to the context of this sentence, there were excellent workers everywhere, and senior technicians were even more grasping, and everyone was desperate to live, and Ivanov beat his workshop leader like crazy. ”

When Zhou Jinru heard this, everyone was stupid, he really planted the seed called online literature a few months ago, did it take root so quickly?

That's too fast, right?!

And Lin Xiaoxi, the person who shouted that his flesh and blood were bitter and the machinery was soaring, was he so enthusiastic when he was just reborn?

"Sounds crazy, right, I thought so at the time, and then he was so poor that he couldn't help it, so he came to me and begged me to borrow some money, and he would not forget me when he made a fortune in the future."

Zhou Jinru shook his wine glass, his thoughts eased a little, and he asked, "So you will lend him change?" ”

"Why not?"

Russell chuckled, his eyes full of nostalgia, he kept reminiscing about the past.

People always like to recall the past when they are old, and Zhou Jinru remembers that his grandfather is like this.

"I didn't expect him to make his career so big, and I didn't expect that I would beg him."
