He continued reading.
"My sister is at the age of marriage. She's only in her twenties, but she's been working in the fields for years. Her hands are much rougher than mine, and her face is darker than mine. I want her to get married, but I need a lot of money.
My brother can't study anymore. His heart isn't in school, and he's still far from the age of marriage, but he should prepare some money for the betrothal gift.
Our old house is about to collapse … "
From these scattered words, he could feel his father's responsibility, helplessness, and uncompromising attitude towards life.
"The opportunity to earn money isn't something we can get naturally. It's the opportunity and power given to us by the reform and opening up. It's the right decision made by the leaders who have a deep understanding of the development of China and the world.
Those who are lucky enough to be born in this era and live in this era will definitely experience better times in the future … "
"China has been unprecedented for thousands of years. I'm happy to think of the world's longevity. I'm lucky to live in this era, and I'm excited to be able to welcome the changes and development in the next few decades … "
"Many people haven't changed their minds. They think that doing business is just speculation and taking the path of capitalism.
These ideas are unbelievable. This is clearly the first wave of benefits of the reform.
I want to do business and become a self-employed person. I know that this group of people is shamed by the public and rejected by the mainstream state-owned economy. I want to be the first to eat crabs, the first ten thousand yuan household. Let's see if there are still people who laugh at us for not taking the normal path thirty years from now. "
"There's no doubt that since there's going to be a reform, the stock market will be reopened. Brave individual investors …"
"The real estate industry is a huge industry in any country, and it's no exception in a populous country like China. At the very least, I'll have to go to the toilet …
The real estate industry will collapse?
At least wait until I'm seventy or eighty … "
"The Internet economy is coming, and the real economy is going to howl …"
“....”
He read it again from beginning to end. Not only did he not feel bored, but he also felt his father's foresight!
He admired his father more and more!
Because the thirty years of reform and opening up proved that what his father said was correct. It could be said that it was a flawless plan!
The emergence of the sun in the seventies, the liberation of the mind in the eighties, the integration of the world in the nineties, the collapse of tradition in the 2000s, and the disruption of technology now.
His father's prediction was spot on!
He only had regret now!
If they had paid more attention to it earlier, they wouldn't be so poor now!
Even if he followed his father's script and chose a random project, such as opening an internet cafe, he would still be a small nouveau riche!
However, even though he was annoyed, he actually understood that even if he had read this manuscript in junior high school, or if he had paid attention to this manuscript two years ago, he was still limited by his age. He couldn't do any of the projects that his father said had a great future!
However, now that he was 18, he felt that it wasn't too late for him to use his father's manuscript as a tutorial to get rich. For example, the cross-platform communication tools, sharing economy, micro finance …
He could give it a try.
Moreover, he was very sure that his mother had never seen this manuscript. Firstly, this was from junior high school. His mother hadn't even graduated from primary school. She wouldn't have made things difficult for herself. Secondly, his mother cherished his father so much. If she had such a long collection of words, his mother would have treated it as a treasure and wouldn't have been willing to give it to him. Even if she was willing to let him see it, she wouldn't have let him keep it for so many years!
He remembered that his mother had a box with a notebook in it. It was his father's class notes. He remembered scribbling on it when he was young and getting beaten up.
Now, the notebook was placed in the safe at home. No one but his mother could open it!
"What a pity …" He Zhou sighed. "You're so short-lived. Even the heavens are jealous of your talent … To be able to survive and be smart and capable, I'm now the son of the richest man in China."
That was what annoyed him the most. Otherwise, he could have inherited a family fortune worth billions and reached the pinnacle of his life.
"How can I be so unambitious …" He patted his head angrily. "I'm going to be a general …"
However, it was just a thought. In reality, he was an undergraduate with no military status.
When he was filling in his application form for the college entrance examination, his mother somehow got the news that entering the military academy meant enlistment in the army. After graduation, he would be assigned to serve in the army for six to ten years.
Naturally, his mother wouldn't agree no matter what. Once again, he compromised and changed his major to automation without military status.
Before he knew it, the Spring Festival Gala had ended.
He found a stapler and bound the scattered mimeographed papers neatly. Looking at the dark column of names, he let out a long sigh. Not only did his mother refuse to say his father's name, she even wiped away all traces of his father's existence.
"He's not dead?" However, he quickly shook his head. It was not that he didn't ask about everything about his father, but no one knew, including his grandfather and grandmother!
His mother had done a good job of keeping it a secret!
However, he was dead, so how could she keep it a secret?
He didn't understand. He just didn't understand!
After he entered elementary school, he followed his mother to visit his father's grave.
However, it was only during the Qingming Festival.
After he gradually came to understand, he proposed to erect a monument for his father. It was a lonely mound of dirt without a name or surname. How unsightly would it be?
However, his mother rejected him. She said that they would erect a monument together after she died.
Now, he was even more curious about who his father was, even though his father was already buried.
However, he couldn't figure it out. He was too lazy to think about it anymore. He unfolded the quilt, tilted his head, and fell asleep.
At 5: 30 am, he opened his eyes on time, folded the quilt, and brushed his teeth in one go. After going to college, he had only slept in once, and that was because he was sick.
When he went downstairs, he seemed to be paralyzed again. His whole body was weak, and he kept yawning.
"Have you brushed your teeth?"
Zhao Di asked.
"I've brushed my teeth and washed my face. Let's see if you're ready for dinner." Seeing that the food had been placed on the table, he took out a plate of firecrackers from the room next door, opened it, and placed it at the door.
"Wait," He Laoxi said, "wait for me to light the incense."
After his grandfather finished lighting the incense, He Zhou took the cigarette from his grandfather's hand and lit the firecrackers. The firecrackers crackled.
Just as he was about to put the half of the cigarette in his hand into his mouth, he suddenly saw his mother glaring at him, so he handed it back to his grandfather helplessly.
Zhao Di said fiercely, "If I see you smoking again, I'll tear your mouth apart."
"I don't smoke …" He Zhou defended himself.
In fact, he smoked very little. He would only light two cigarettes when he was unhappy. He didn't put it in his mouth, and the cigarette just floated there.
