"Brother Xiaolin, wake up."

"Wake up, it's time to cut down those rats......"

Li Lin opened his eyes and saw a hideous fat face, carrying a three-edged military thorn in his left hand and a dagger in his right hand.

Suddenly, the dagger of the cold light was in front of his eyes, and the fat man said loudly: "Brother Xiaolin takes a knife, let's go teach those people a lesson!" ”

Li Lin stared at the fat man intently, and the face in front of him gradually matched the photo in his memory.

"West...... Xitong, are you Li Xitong? ”

"It's me, why don't you know me?"

"Impossible, Xitong died in 1996, who are you?"

The little fat man was stunned, put the knife on the bed and reached out to touch Li Lin's forehead, "Brother, why are you cursing me to death?" ”

Li Lin endured a headache and got up from the bed, raised his left hand to look at his watch, and his wrist was empty.

Both hands rummaged through their pockets to find their mobile phones, and only found a stack of banknotes all over the body, the back is the main peak of Jinggang Mountain, and the front is the heads of the four great men.

It turned out to be the 4th set of RMB 100 yuan bills, how can there be a 4th set of RMB in 2022?

When I turned my head, I saw a beautiful wall calendar on the wall, showing May 1996.

"Tell me what year and month is today?"

"Brother Xiaolin, what's wrong with you? Today is May 15, 1996. ”

Li Lin's head buzzed, this day was the sacrifice day of his good brother Li Xitong.

Li Lin was 18 years old this year, and last year his family owed 4,000 yuan in foreign debts for his treatment.

Working 12 hours a day and getting a salary of 300 yuan a month, I was very happy, but I ran into trouble.

This factory brings together migrant workers from all over the country, villagers from all over the country report groups for warmth, and those with more people bully less.

Li Lin, who didn't want to be blackmailed, chose to resist, and the two brothers relied on the knives on their bodies to harden each other's more than 20 people.

Unexpectedly, the other party also had a knife, and during the fight, Li Xitong was hacked to death to save Li Lin, and Li Lin also stabbed the knife into the stomach of the perpetrator.

Everyone threw knives and fled for their lives in fright, and Li Lin, who had nothing to do, also chose to escape, ignoring his brother who was lying in a pool of blood.

Since then, he has changed his name and surname, and he has been crawling in society, and he can't go back to his home, and he can't see his relatives.

After working a lot of work and enduring a lot of hardships, it was only after meeting his wife that he ended his wandering career, and the couple also earned a small amount of money after getting along with each other.

In the summer of 2022, Li Lin plucked up the courage to confess his identity to his wife and went to the police station to check whether he was a fugitive.

After inquiring and learning that he was not a fugitive, Li Lin immediately drove back to his hometown to see his parents, but found that the object was a person, and the eldest brother took him to his parents' grave.

After he ran away, his father went to work at the construction site in order to pay off his debts, and died in an accident at the construction site in mid-August 96.

The mother took the photo of her beloved son, begged all the way and searched for it, and it took 15 years to find it, and finally died of illness at home without waiting for her beloved son to return.

Li Lin knelt in front of his parents' graves and kept repenting, but when he opened his eyes again, he found that he had returned to 1996.

Reaching into his clothes and touching the deltoid muscle of his left shoulder, the scar that had accompanied him for 22 years was gone.

"Are you really Li Xitong? Is it really 1996 now? ”

"Yes, you forgot that we grew up together?"

"Do you have a cigarette, brother, I want to smoke a cigarette."

Li Xitong handed Li Lin a cigarette and lit it for him with a match.

"Brother Xiaolin, are you afraid of those rats, you said you were going to cut them."

"Don't be afraid!"

Li Lin shook his head and sneered, he was really not afraid of those people, he was not afraid of the previous life, and he was not afraid of this life.

"Brother Xiaolin, let's go and kill a few, see who dares to bully us in the future, why should we give them the money we earn in vain?"

"Xiaoxi, where are those little rats waiting for the two of us?"

"It's in the grove behind the factory, I'll show you."

Li Xitong pulled Li Lin to the window, pointed to the grove downstairs and said, "It's there." ”

In the cypress forest, about 20 young people gathered together to smoke, and when they found Li Lin, they raised their heads and scolded.

"Two landlubbers, get down and get beaten."

"Turtle son, don't be a turtle with a shrunken head, come down quickly."

"I'm going to take care of my grandmother, and I'm going to clean up your turtle grandsons right away."

The furious Li Xitong turned around to get the knife, Li Lin quickly grabbed him and closed the window casually.

"There are so many of them that we can't fight hard, take me to find a payphone, and I'll teach you to use your brain to solve the problem."

Li Xitong shook his head and said, "There is a phone in the corridor, how can you solve it with your brain?" ”

Li Lin said: "Let's go, you will know when the time comes." ”

There was an IC card telephone in the corridor, and Li Lin dialed 110 directly.

"Hello, is it the police station? There were people fighting in the cypress grove at the back door of Foxconn, all carrying daggers and other controlled knives. ”

After reporting to the police, Li Xitong pulled Li Xitong back to the dormitory, locked the door of the dormitory with his backhand, lit a cigarette and looked at him calmly.

Li Xitong was stunned, and said that he had called the police with a knife, isn't this a confession?

Ten minutes later, the downstairs alarm bell rang out, followed by messy footsteps and roars.

"Squat, all squat!"

"Put your head in your hands, be honest."

"Don't run, stop me!"

Li Lin opened the window and looked downstairs, and saw countless riot policemen surrounding the grove, and the little rats were served in a pot.

"Does Konishi know what happened to them?"

"I don't know, Brother Xiaolin, tell me."

"Carrying controlled knives to a public gathering, detaining for 10 days and fining 500 yuan, will also be fired from the factory, you just say it's not cool, right?"

"Uh...... Hey. ”

Li Xitong scratched his head and smiled, and suddenly felt that it was good to solve it in this way, and it was much easier than using a knife to pick people.

"Brother Xiaolin is still smart, no wonder he can go to junior high school."

"Xiaoxi, follow me to earn money in the future."

Li Xitong nodded, he had no concept of making money.

Li Lin continued to smoke with his head down, Xitong should not die, and it was time to find a way to make money.

In this life, he has to use a lot of money to give his parents a comfortable life, find a good daughter-in-law for his lifelong unmarried eldest brother, and realize his little sister's college dream.

Of course, it is also necessary to let the wife who gave up her status as the daughter of a wealthy family in her previous life to elope with the poor boy marry him in a dignified manner.

The family still owes more than 4,000 yuan in foreign debts, and must earn at least 5,000 yuan as soon as possible to go home to pay off the debts, and never put an end to the possibility of his father going out to work.

Li Lin took out the money and counted it, no more, no less, exactly 9.

It is said that gold was everywhere in the 90s, and this 900 yuan was the capital of his gold panning to pay off his debts, and he had already thought of a way to make gold.

"Konishi, how much money do you have on you?"

"There are more than 500 left."

"Believe me?"

"Believe, when did I not believe you?"

"Let's do business together, I'll guarantee you 500 to 5000."

"Brother, what kind of business is making money?"

"Selling DVDs, of course."

Li Lin has read the autobiographies of e-commerce bigwigs and knows that JD Liu's bigwigs started by selling CDs.

In the 90s, before the Internet became widespread, mass entertainment was carried by DVD players, television sets, cassette tape players and martial arts novels.

Every year, tens of millions of CDs flow from Hong Kong Island to the mainland, and Shencheng is the largest CD transit station.

"I'll exchange 800 and you will exchange 500, let's go to the bay to buy VCD DVDs and ship them to Yu Province to sell for money."

"What do you say? Selling yellow discs? ”

"Sell your sister's yellow discs, don't go to the video hall in the future, follow me to make money and marry a daughter-in-law is the king."

"That's it!"

Li Lin struck while the iron was hot and said, "Give me the money." ”

Li Xitong froze, and after a while, he whispered, "Are we going to resign?" ”

Li Lin said: "We must leave here, those rats will confess to us, do you want to be arrested by the police?" ”
