Eventually, Uncle Mei hung up the phone and turned around and told me that he had made an appointment with that friend for the evening, and that we would meet at a hot pot restaurant in town.

It is true that we should meet to talk about such a big thing, and I can also take this opportunity to get to know this friend as a person.

Uncle Mei told me that this person is the sixth in the family, so he calls people the sixth, at that time, the word "sixth" had no other meaning, just a simple title, unlike now, when it comes to the sixth, it is easy for people to think in a bad way.

Uncle Mei asked me to call him Uncle Six, and also told me to be polite when talking to him, he told me that the sixth child and he were classmates when they were in junior high school, but later the sixth child was admitted to high school, but Uncle Mei went directly into society, and it was from that time that the two people embarked on two completely different paths on the road of life.

When I was waiting to meet the sixth child, Uncle Mei and I had tea and gave me a brief introduction to the sixth person.

He said that the sixth child was very smart when he was in school, he was not the kind of nerd who studied hard, he listened carefully when he was in class, went around to play after class, and did not see him write homework, sometimes even his schoolbag was thrown in the classroom, not taken home, but he could get the top three in the school every time he took the exam, and he could get the first place when he did well.

In addition to his good grades, this buddy also has a good relationship with teachers and classmates, and the classmates who study well in the class can talk to him, and those who are not doing their jobs and are ruffians also call him brothers.

Later, he was admitted to a key high school in the city, and there was less contact with Uncle Mei, and later, I heard that he was admitted to a book, majoring in international trade.

At that time, college students were scarce, especially college students, who were in high demand, unlike now, when tens of millions of college students could not find jobs.

As soon as he graduated from his bachelor's degree, he was assigned to a foreign trade company as a salesman, and he ran the business in Southeast Asia, so he often went abroad and gradually became familiar there.

When he was in college, he was able to speak English fluently, and in order to work, he taught himself Thai, and now he can communicate with Thai people without barriers.

Anyway, after listening to a series of stories, I sincerely admire this old six, he is really a strange person, and he can be regarded as an elite talent.

However, Uncle Mei said that a few years ago, about two thousand years ago, the sixth resigned from his job in a foreign trade company and began to work alone, and he didn't inquire about what kind of work he did, but the salary of the foreign trade company was at least seven or eight thousand a month, and seven or eight thousand a month for two thousand years, which was a greedy fat difference, but the sixth said that he would not do it if he didn't do it, which shows that he found a more profitable way.

Talking about this, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon, Uncle Mei and I cleaned up and simply went out, went to the hot pot restaurant and waited to have dinner with the sixth child.

At half past five in the afternoon, I saw a black Mercedes Benz driving to the door of the hot pot restaurant, and there was no second Mercedes in the whole town at that time, so as soon as this car drove over, it immediately attracted the attention of many people.

After the car stopped, a very fashionable man came down from above, he was dressed very casually, the upper body was a plain gray coat, and the lower body was even wearing only a pair of loose sweatpants, and a pair of slip-on shoes, not like those successful people on TV, who were dressed in hundreds of thousands, but he could give people a very rich temperament, and people would know that he was a model at a glance.

I asked Uncle Mei, "Uncle, this is the old ...... Sixth uncle, right? ”

"Well, it should be." Uncle Mei nodded and said.

I couldn't help but laugh and said, "What should it be?" Uncle, your own old classmate, don't you recognize it? ”

Uncle Mei scratched the back of his head and said, "I haven't seen him for seven or eight years, he has changed too much in the past few years, I really can't say ......."

However, the sixth child has changed a lot, but Uncle Mei has not changed much, as soon as the master entered the door, he saw Uncle Mei, and said hello with a smile: "Big belly!" ”

As soon as he heard this title, Uncle Mei's old face suddenly turned red, and he coughed and said, "Sixth, how old are you, can you call yourself a nickname when you meet?" ”

The sixth child didn't care, walked over and pulled out a chair and sat down, and said disdainfully: "Isn't it kind to shout a nickname, what?" I shouted every day when I went to school, but I can't shout now? ”

I couldn't cry or laugh, and asked casually, "Uncle, why are you called a big belly?" ”

Before Uncle Mei could answer, the sixth child said to me very familiarly: "Because your uncle had a big butt when he went to school, and the school benches were all benches at that time, and two people at the same table sat on a stool, but once your uncle sat down with his ass and cocked the female classmates on the other end, so we all called him Da Belly, hahaha......

I didn't expect Uncle Mei to have such a black history, and I was amused on the spot.

After laughing, I quickly stood up and took the initiative to shake hands with the sixth child, and said, "Sixth uncle, I am Uncle Mei's son-in-law, and my name is Chen Rongsheng." ”

"Rong Sheng, huh? I heard Da Gu say, he said that you are better than him in water, and once you fished him up in the undercurrent! The sixth said with a smile.

"Uncle Sixth has won the award, and I am better than I am young and have the strength to do it." I smiled.

The sixth man patted me on the shoulder and praised me: "The young man is good, he knows how to be modest, the sixth uncle looked at you and said okay, I have a treat today, don't grab orders with me for a while." ”

Uncle Mei hurriedly shook his head and said, "That's not good, you are a guest from afar, how can there be a reason for a guest to invite the host to dinner?" ”

But the sixth said, "Why am I a guest from afar?" Don't forget, I grew up in this town, and my roots are here. ”

"Forget it, you have taken your mother and old man abroad to enjoy Qingfu, and now you come back even if you are a guest, the guest is as you please, I have a treat today." Uncle Mei said domineeringly.

I heard Uncle Mei say that after Uncle Mei made money, he bought a big villa on a foreign island, and then took his parents to live there, and never came back.

Seeing that Uncle Mei was stubborn, the sixth child didn't argue with him, waved his hand and said, "Forget it, don't fight with you for this, let's order food first, I'm hungry." ”

After saying that, he called the waiter and ordered some meat and vegetables.

Uncle Mei asked for another bottle of good wine, and the three of us sat together eating and drinking.

After three rounds of drinking, Uncle Mei began to inquire about the salvage, but he was embarrassed to ask directly as soon as he came up, which was more tactful.

picked up the wine glass and touched it with Uncle Six, and Uncle Mei asked, "Six, what is the origin of the boat you salvaged from our grandfather?" Our grandfather is not as cultured as you, both are illiterate, you tell us about it, so that we can have a bottom in our hearts before we go into the water. ”

The sixth uncle smiled, nodded and said, "Okay, in fact, even if you don't ask, I have to tell you, this ship is a treasure ship that is rare in a hundred years!" ”
