Make A Billion In The 80s - Chatper 153
I asked Grandpa Qiu, but he said that he had never moved, so Qiu Mingquan was the only one left.
How did he get so much money at such a young age? Although he finally paid it back, what did he do?
Grandpa Qiu took a closer look, and when he saw the injury on his face, his heart skipped a beat.
This child is an abandoned baby picked up by the old couple. In the middle of winter, such a delicate swaddling baby with blue flowers is lying on the side of the road. They can’t bear to see such a small child left alone, and the social welfare institutions are not perfect. Ask After a long time, they couldn’t find a good place for the abandoned baby. As a last resort, I adopted it.
Qiu Mingquan has been well-behaved and obedient since he was a child, and he never caused people to worry, but recently… the two old people thought of his extremely strange words and deeds recently, and suddenly wanted to go wrong.
——Is this child starting to turn bad? !
Leaving early and returning late, stealing money for private use, and having strange scars on his body, could it be that he did something bad with the bad guys!
Grandpa Qiu was in a trance for a while, and suddenly remembered what he saw a few days ago. Qiu Mingquan, who had been shy and timid since he was a child, had that desperate and fierce look in his eyes when facing Wang Daquan.
And the past, not a person at all!
“You…you tell me clearly!” Grandpa Qiu stood up abruptly, panting heavily.
He has always been seldom talkative and has no culture. He is usually silent and dull, but when he loses his temper, he is very scary.
“What should I do?” Qiu Mingquan asked anxiously in his heart, and asked Feng Rui for help.
“Just tell the truth, say that you heard the news on a whim, and you made money selling gold pens.” No matter how capable Feng Rui is, it’s okay at this time, “Don’t be so stupid as to tell me, otherwise they might find Taoist priests or The monk came to suppress me.”
The two old people only saw his anxious face and sweat dripping from his forehead. Grandma Qiu felt a pain in her heart, and muddy tears flowed down her cheeks.
“Xiaoquan…” She choked up and said, “I know our family is suffering. But you must not go astray if you are poor.”
Qiu Mingquan shook his head anxiously: “No! Grandma, I didn’t do anything bad! Believe me…”
“Then tell us, why did you steal the money?” Grandma Qiu looked at him anxiously.
Not to mention that it’s impossible to hide it, Qiu Mingquan bit the bullet and said: “Grandpa, grandma, I… I recently learned from others and started a little business.”
He took a deep breath and tried his best to look mature: “I bought the pens in the mall, the ones with gold nibs, and sold them at a higher price. These days, I made a lot of money.”
“Xiaoquan, you…” Grandma Qiu cried in despair. It’s fine to steal money, but you still tell such a big lie? !
Qiu Mingquan panicked, pulled down his schoolbag, and dumped all the money in it on the bed.
“Grandpa and grandma, look, the money is back, and I have earned so much!”
A large pile of old and new ten-yuan and five-yuan banknotes covered the bed, and there was also the crisp sound of steel coins colliding with each other. Under the dim light, the eyes of the two old people were straightened.
so much money! !
Qiu Mingquan forgot one thing, the myth of compound interest growth, ordinary people can’t figure it out, ordinary people can’t accept the fact that more than 80 yuan can be transformed into such a huge sum of money within ten days!
Grandpa Qiu opened his mouth, and suddenly became frightened: Is there any way to make a child earn so much money in a short period of time!
Grandma Qiu stared at him suspiciously, and suddenly saw a section of red rope protruding from his neck.
With a simple pull, the jade pendant was exposed, and a piece of dense precious light scattered under the dim light, warm and delicate, like frozen cream.
The two old men rubbed their eyes at the same time. Even if they don’t have any appreciation ability at all, they can tell that this is by no means a cheap thing.
“This… what is this?”
“I, I picked it up.” Qiu Mingquan blurted out, lying hastily, “I picked it up in a tree hole.”
At this urgent enough moment, President Feng was still whimpering: “Look, she doesn’t feel it when she touches me. Only when you touch me can I feel it.”
Grandpa Qiu looked around, suddenly picked up the small bench next to the bed, and hit Qiu Mingquan: “I told you to lie! I told you to be a bad boy!…”
This inexplicable precious jade, this huge sum of money that suddenly appeared, and that concealed and twinkling eyes!
The small bench hit his back, Qiu Mingquan’s small body staggered, and his back felt dull pain.
Qiu Mingquan was immediately stunned.
He has been very filial and obedient since he was a child, and he was rarely mischievous. Even in his previous life, he did not remember any time when he was beaten. On his buttocks, the pain made him tremble again.
“Grandpa, I, I…”
“Oh, your family still engages in domestic violence. The poorer you become, the more barbaric you become—” Feng Rui was taken aback, “Hey, hide, aren’t you stupid!”
Qiu Mingquan was about to dodge, but when he saw Grandpa’s trembling appearance, he was suddenly startled!
In the previous life, my grandfather was in poor health, and the poor family didn’t have any knowledge of annual physical examinations. He suddenly had a stroke and died after being paralyzed in bed for several years. In this life, don’t advance the cause of the stroke because of something!
Thinking about it this way, he didn’t dare to move at all, he was anxious and scared, tears filled his eyes quietly.
Seeing Qiu Mingquan being beaten stupidly, Grandma Qiu was so anxious that she burst into tears, and ran up tremblingly to stop him: “Okay, old man, stop beating, and ask carefully if you have something to say, Xiaoquan is not an ignorant child.”
Also said he is sensible? Looking at Qiu Mingquan’s reticence, Grandpa Qiu was so angry that his hands trembled: “If he doesn’t explain clearly today, I’ll just kill him!”
“Heretics! Even the parents who gave birth to you can’t beat and kill them every now and then, children are not private property.” Feng Rui complained angrily, “What’s more, you were adopted.”
“You hand over this unknown thing to the police station.” With tears in her eyes, she reached for the jade pendant on Qiu Mingquan’s neck, “Even if it was picked up, the person who lost it must be very anxious, so let’s return it.”
Qiu Mingquan was taken aback suddenly and was stunned.
“Hold on! Don’t listen to her!” Feng Rui was furious, his usual elegance was gone.
Hell, if he was really stalked by this old woman and handed over to a stranger, it would make the sky and the earth miserable, wouldn’t it kill him?
“No, no… This, this won’t work.” Qiu Mingquan tightly held his heart.
Grandpa Qiu was so angry that he suddenly snatched the jade pendant from his neck, raised his hand suddenly, and threw the whole thing out of the window!
Qiu Mingquan was completely blindfolded, watching the darkness outside, his heart seemed to be hit hard by something, and he yelled suddenly: “What are you doing?!”
With this roar, the room fell silent. The bench raised by Grandpa Qiu stopped in mid-air and did not come down for a long time, and Grandma Qiu didn’t make a sound.
“Grandpa, grandma, I…” Seeing the suddenly slumped expressions of the two old people, Qiu Mingquan vaguely knew that something had happened.
Grandpa Qiu stared at him blankly, his old face slowly changed from violent anger to dull sadness.
When he picked up this emaciated abandoned baby on the side of the road more than ten years ago, he has regarded this little life as his lifeblood for so many years.
Thinking of the child’s loving and well-behaved appearance in the past, and his roaring expression just now, Grandpa Qiu felt as if he had been torn apart by something.
He waved his hands desperately and sadly: “Okay, okay…we don’t care about you.”
He turned around with difficulty, got on the bed with one leg, and swept all the money on the bed to the ground. Then, with his hunched body on his back, he stopped saying a word.
Qiu Mingquan was scared out of his wits, eagerness, remorse, and worry all came to his mind: “Grandpa! I was wrong…Grandpa, don’t get mad!”
If he lives a new life, even if he has no ability to change his destiny and make his family live a worry-free life, he can’t piss grandpa to death in advance, right? !
He was at a loss, and wiped it on his face indiscriminately, scratching the wound and bleeding.
Staring blankly at the blood on his hand, an inexplicable anxiety and helplessness surged into his heart, chilling his bones.
Yes, this was not earned by his ability at all, and the two old men saw him right.
With trembling hands, he knelt on the head of the bed and picked up a few banknotes.
“Grandpa, don’t be angry, I’ll tear it up… tear it up, okay?”
Grandma Qiu hurried over and grabbed him. The oppressive atmosphere in the small and dilapidated rented room was almost suffocating.
Qiu Mingquan just felt that his mind was blank. These days, he was used to Feng Rui’s nagging and reprimand, as well as his sarcasm and pointers. Now his voice suddenly disappeared, but his heart gradually calmed down.
If that person is here, he must not like to see himself in such a daze and useless state, right?
No, he has to be strong.
Qiu Mingquan, who was kneeling on the ground, was silent for a long time, and then finally spoke with a hoarse voice.
“Grandpa and grandma. Everything I said is true.” He said softly, “I really earned the money by selling pens. Because the money is too much and it comes quickly, I am also very scared, no Dare to tell you.”
Neither of the old men made a sound.
“It was my mistake, and I will never hide it from you again next time.”
He gently grabbed a bunch of money on the ground, put it in grandma’s hand, and looked straight into the old man’s blank eyes: “But every penny here is earned cleanly. No crime of rape.”
Qiu Mingquan only felt that his whole body was icy cold.
The man in front of him was a bully who ran rampant in the surrounding area. He was the one who drove away the residents of this compound and forcibly bought this large piece of housing and land.
Ordinary people at that time had no idea that this area would be where the Pudong New District would be located in the future. Under the threat of kitchen knives and sticks, they had to sell their small dwellings at a low price and wandered to other places.
In the following two or three years, the construction of the historic Pudong New Area finally officially kicked off. Even if every inch of land here is not expensive, at least it has begun to appreciate in value. In later generations, the prosperity, wealth, and everything here will no longer be the same as They have nothing to do, causing many families to live in rented houses without tiles to shelter them from wind and rain.
…And Grandpa Qiu’s leg was abruptly broken by the person in front of him during the conflict a few months later, and he limped for the rest of his life, thanks to this person!
Qiu Mingquan will always remember that when he was only a teenager, he was pushed to the ground by these people, and he watched the thick wooden stick smash towards his grandfather’s leg. …
“They’re here to buy the house by force, you bastard!” He gritted his teeth in his heart.
“What happened to this person?” Feng Rui asked suddenly.
Qiu Mingquan was taken aback, and replied: “He bought a lot of houses and land, just in time for the development of the new district… Later he became the big boss of a real estate company, and it is said that he is very rich.”
Feng Rui sneered from his nostrils: “Just right? You are really naive.”
Everyone in the world knows that in April 1990, the Prime Minister announced the development and opening of the Pudong New Area in Dongshen City. However, anyone who has a little bit of news should know that the real time was the “Development Conference” held by the Dongshen City Government in May 1988. Pudong New Area International Symposium”!
But now, some ghosts and monsters have heard the wind and are ready to move, right?
But, a street bully, how could he know about these historic opportunities? Feng Rui fell into deep thought.
There was silence in the courtyard. …
This bully is called Wang Daquan, and there are dozens of gangsters under his command. Last time he came, he made a grand request to buy all the houses here at a very cheap price, saying that his family wanted to set up a brick and tile factory. , is in need of this large piece of land.
Of course the residents are not willing. The little money he paid is not enough to buy half of the area elsewhere. If they really collect the money and move away, they will have to rent the house forever.
–If you have a place to shelter from the wind and rain, no matter how small or old it is, it is still your home, isn’t it?
Liu Qinhua took the courage to speak first: “Brother Wang, we have discussed it, and we really can’t sell the house. We are dragging our families, and it is not easy to move. Besides, the money is not enough…”
Wang Daquan looked at Liu Dongfeng who was glaring beside her with a half-smile, and walked over.
He arrogantly tapped Liu Dongfeng’s shoulder: “I heard that you haven’t become a regular yet, right? Come on, come hit me!”
The young men he brought burst into laughter: “Young police trainees? How scary! Hit us, and we will never fight back.”
Liu Dongfeng’s face was flushed red, his teeth were clenched, and he didn’t say a word.
Yes, he has experienced the methods of these people before, and before he gets a taste of them, these hooligans can open a ladle for themselves, and then rush to the police station, falsely accusing the police of beating people!
For him who has not yet become a regular, if he encounters such a thing, his life will be ruined.
Wang Daquan pushed him away with a smile, and whispered to Liu Qinhua: “Sister-in-law, your son is amazing, and I don’t want to provoke you. How about this, let’s have a private chat later, and I will give you a better condition for your family. As for your son, just Don’t meddle!”
Liu Qinhua hesitated for a while, and finally closed her mouth. She couldn’t help but not be afraid of her son’s work being involved.
Wang Daquan held the wooden stick, swayed left and right, and suddenly kicked up, smashing the pile of coal balls in Aunt Wang’s house, and his eyes were full of hostility: “Take my words as deaf ears, right? I have worked so hard to borrow money. 100,000, the brick factory is waiting for this piece of land, you lions, this is killing me! Ah?!”
Wu Dagen rushed forward, trying to stop him, but was held back by his wife behind him.
Aunt Wang was so frightened that she winked again and again, and lowered her voice: “Don’t mess with these people, I heard that they beat and disabled people before…”
Wang Daquan looked at the old and young in the compound with satisfaction and said, “Cutting people’s wealth is like killing their parents. My surname Wang can put my words here today. Next time I come, I will bring a contract. Anyone who doesn’t want to sign it will do so now.” speak out.”
“Brother Wang, we really have nowhere to go…” Someone begged, “The child is going to school here, where can we go? Brother Wang, please.”
Wang Daquan reached out his hand coldly to grab the man who spoke, and lightly nodded him: “You don’t want to do it, do you?”
The man bit his lip tightly, and bite the bullet: “Brother Wang, my family has been selling vegetables nearby. If we leave here, what will our family eat?”
Wang Daquan looked at him coldly: “Okay, I will remember you.”
He suddenly loosened the man’s collar, turned his head and smiled at Liu Dongfeng: “Comrade policeman, I’ll save you, don’t do anything today.”
He turned his head, waved his hands, and sighed: “You don’t care about the friendship of the villagers, and you insist on going against my brothers, then you have to be careful, don’t come back late at night, and break your leg for no reason.”
The naked threats in the words were ready to come out, and the expressions of all the people in the compound, old and young, were extremely ugly.
The notoriety of this Wang Daquan is not for ordinary petty crimes. There are vague rumors in the surrounding villages that he once killed people, and there are not a few people who were injured or maimed by him.
Wang Daquan snorted coldly and waved his hand: “Go!”
Passing by the door, he saw an old woman leaning against the door and looking straight at him, couldn’t help feeling bored, and slapped her across the face: “Get lost, old woman!”
But just when the heavy slap was about to slap the old man’s face, a small figure rushed over like a cannonball and hugged his waist!
This momentum was so powerful that he staggered back a few steps, and then he stopped, and when he took a closer look, he was meeting a pair of eyes that were black and clear, but burning with faint flames.
Qiu Mingquan only felt that the blood in his whole body was boiling.
He clearly remembered this scene many years ago!
This man raised his hand and slapped the back of grandma’s head against the door panel, causing a huge swelling on the back of her head. At that time, grandma had been lying in bed for several days, dizzy and vomiting, but the family had no money, so she refused to go. The hospital, just endured it so hard.
Looking back now, it was at least a slight concussion!
“What do you want to do, hello?” President Feng said in surprise in his mind, “Are you planning to fight four or five by yourself when you rush over like this? Have you considered the consequences? Where’s your brain?”
Qiu Mingquan firmly blocked Wang Daquan and did not answer Feng Rui’s question.
He didn’t know what would happen next, he only knew that he would not let this person hurt his relatives again if he tried his best. Thinking that soon, this person would bring a stick to the door and break Grandpa’s leg, he suddenly felt a shuddering murderous intent.
Kill him, and die with him, just treat this coming life as a waste of time!
Wang Daquan was really confused. In a blink of an eye, the anger came out, and the big hands like iron pincers grabbed Qiu Qingquan’s small wrist, and threw him to the side: “Little bastard!”
After all, Qiu Mingquan’s body was still that of a skinny boy in his teens, so he was no match for this blow, his whole body fell out, and fell on the coal pile behind him, “cracking” the coal fell into a pile.
“Shall I come?!” President Feng’s voice was full of joy and excitement, “You see, although you want to fight, your skills are not good enough! I have learned Taekwondo, Muay Thai, Wing Chun and free kickboxing!”
Qiu Mingquan: “…”
In the past few days, the two of them have roughly figured out the situation. The two of them connected with each other through the jade pendant. As long as Qiu Mingquan, the master, takes the initiative to relax, Feng Rui can easily control his body, which is commonly known as the upper body!
Grandma Qiu became anxious, and rushed forward tremblingly: “Xiaoquan!”
Before she could stand still, she was violently pulled aside, and a big foot flew up into the air, stepping on Qiu Mingquan who was on the ground: “You want to die, dare you touch our boss?!”
Just when the big foot was about to land, a strange scene happened.
The boy suddenly raised his head, and the sharp and cold wolf-like look in his eyes flashed away, as if he had suddenly changed his soul.
President Feng happily took control of a body that didn’t belong to him!
As soon as he rolled his body flexibly, the big foot kicked in vain, and then a black poker swept over in an instant, hitting the man’s ankle hard, making an ear-piercing muffled sound.
“Ahhh!” With a scream, the man hugged his feet and jumped up, howling endlessly.
Wang Daquan was taken aback, with a fierce look in his eyes, he picked up a small folding stool in the yard, and threw his head at the boy on the ground: even a child dared to challenge his authority, would he still be able to take this piece of land? ?
The folding stool roared down with the sound of the wind.
