Return to 2001 to pursue dreams

Gao Hongda looked at the calendar on his phone, and saw that the Spring Festival was less than five days away. All these trivial matters were entangled in his legs, and he couldn't bear to be entangled in mundane things, no matter how hard he wanted to return.

After Du Fei's threats from the clouds and fog, his mood has been ups and downs like a roller coaster these days. Fortunately, Brother Liang is here to help. He is going to visit the master today and must give it as a holiday gift. He bought a bunch of gifts for him. Liu Xin took the car and rushed to "Knowing House" early in the morning.

The master was doing Tai Chi in a decent manner in the courtyard, with the door not closed, as if he was just waiting for his apprentice to come and give him a gift. After the apprentice came in, he respectfully greeted the master. Master Xu continued his Tai Chi practice without moving his eyelids, muttering: "I made a fortune and didn't come to tell my master the good news immediately. It seems a bit strange." It’s floating!”

Gao Hongda quickly explained: "I can't hide anything from Master. I just made a little fortune, but the troubles that come with it are also a headache."

The master still said calmly: "You're so scared, isn't there someone to carry it for you?"

Gao Hongda sighed and expressed his inner troubles: "In the past few days, two people have suffered misfortune. One is unknown whether he is alive or dead, and it is probably a disaster. The other one has become a foreign worker, and his life or death is also unpredictable. I don't know if it is an evil act." ?”

Master Xu slowly calmed down and said without turning his head: "These two people are destined to meet you. Everything is due to fate. Don't blame yourself too much. When two tigers fight, one of them will be injured. If If they eat you, they won’t blame you as much as you do!”

Gao Hongda nodded in agreement and asked: "This also harmed two families. Is it an evil act?"

Master Xu rubbed his hands, turned around and went back to the house. As he walked, he said: "Punish evil and promote good, how can we talk about committing evil? These two people are not doing human affairs, oppressing good people, taking corruption and bribes. If you kill them, you are doing justice for heaven." ! As for their families, haha, it’s just their legacy.”

Gao Hongda was in a much better mood. He thanked his master for the advice and directed Liu Xin to quickly move the health care products and other gifts into the car. Master Xu pointed to the corner of the living room with a look of disgust and said: "Throw it over there! It's a pile of industrial waste, don't make my house dirty." These words made Liu Xin, who was holding the gift box, at a loss.

Gao Hongda took out a gift box and put it on the coffee table in front of his master and said: "I know that master despises these worldly things, but it is just my disciple's kindness. You have to accept whatever you say!" After that, he knocked on the gift box.

Master Xu pretended to be angry and said: "What does this mean?"

The apprentice said with a smile: "It's just a trivial matter!"

Master said: "How many meanings does it have?"

The disciple said: "It's just some yellow and white things, not worthy of elegance!"

The master said: "You are no longer interesting!"

The disciple said: "It's Chinese New Year, it's just a meaning!"

The master laughed heartily: "You are so interesting, kid!" After saying that, he picked up the gift box and shook it. It made a jingling sound and was quite heavy. He felt happy and put it casually under the coffee table. He should also have guessed that the apprentice paid tribute to the gold bar this time.

This time Master Xu patiently spent the whole morning imparting Taoist knowledge to him. Gao Hongda was confused and couldn't digest it for a while. He even yawned, which made Master Xu kick him in anger. Kick him out and forget about lunch.

They wandered around the capital in the afternoon, waiting for their uncle to get off work.

At this time, the New Year atmosphere in Beijing is already very strong. The street lamps are hung with red lanterns. Passers-by are still in a hurry and vehicles are flowing continuously. The scenes inside and outside the Third Ring Road are completely like two worlds. There are many high-rise buildings inside the Third Ring Road, while most of them are bungalows outside the Third Ring Road. , occasionally you can see a few buildings under construction. The real estate industry in Beijing has not started to go crazy at the moment. Judging from the roadside house sales advertisements, the house price in Tongzhou is only 1800, and the most expensive one in Haidian is only about 4200. This makes Gao Hongda felt very itchy. This kind of house price is not low for current office workers, but it is simply a bargain price for Gao Hongda, who has made a fortune! I am secretly planning my house purchase plan after the new year.

I drove my uncle to pick him up from get off work and took him home, and sent the prepared gifts upstairs. In front of his uncle, he handed a thick kraft paper bag to his aunt and said: "Here is our year-end dividend. This milk tea can be mass-produced, and the flagship store has been opened. The packaged milk tea will be fully launched next year. "Of course the aunt flatly refused, but she couldn't resist Gao Hongda's enthusiastic deception, so she finally accepted it.

Gao Hongda has always cared about these human courtesy, but it is a pity that he was so poor in his previous life that he had no spare money to maintain the relationship between relatives. Don't take the phrase "I am poor in a mountain village and no one asks" as a good sentence to accuse relatives and friends of being snobbish. People who have this kind of thinking should ask themselves, what have they given to their relatives and friends? Don't use fair-weather friends as a derogatory term. No matter how good the relationship is, if it is not maintained by fair-weather friends, the final result will be that it will quickly fade away.

He declined his uncle's invitation to dinner because he had to cooperate with Li Jie to deal with Su Yan that night. The two men agreed to take their uncle and his family back to their hometown to celebrate the New Year together in two days, and then said goodbye and left.

When passing by the train station, Liu Xin said coquettishly: "Brother Da, I, I, I want to go home. I was too embarrassed to go back before, but I want to go back this year..."

Gao Hongda immediately agreed: "What's so embarrassing about this? When are you leaving?"

Liu Xin said: "Let's do it now. The train ticket to Texas is easy to buy. I don't need to bring any luggage."

Gao Hongda took out two thousand yuan from his bag, stuffed it into him and said, "Go and bring something for your family. Don't make people laugh with your empty paws!"

The two got off the car, Liu Xin went to the station, and Gao Hongda drove back by himself. Only when he returned to the eastern suburbs did he notice that the money he had just given to Liu Xin was on the passenger seat, and this guy secretly put it down. Think about Liu Xin's ruthless appearance when they first met, and then look at how he looks like a normal person now, they are completely different. Gao Hongda knew that Liu Xin was a very loyal person, but he worshiped society too much. After many twists and turns in his previous life, he finally had no choice but to go down the road of no return as a gangster. He now began to feel proud of his ability to change someone's destiny.
