Chapter 036

Early on Sunday morning, Meng Xiaoqing knocked on the gate of Zhao Qingshan's house.

"Brother, it's only seven o'clock now. Is it necessary to be so early?" Zhao Qingshan had already gotten up, but he thought Meng Xiaoqing was still too early.

"Did Brother Xiaoshan eat?" Meng Xiaoqing entered the house with a smile, as if following her.

"I've eaten, when will your classmate come?"

"They're coming at eight."

"You memorize the words yourself."

"Oh, okay, huh? Brother Xiaoshan, have you started collecting stamps?" Meng Xiaoqing noticed that several new stamp albums were added to Zhao Qingshan's desk.

"Yes, I applied to join the Jianggang Philatelic Association and I will be approved soon. Do you have stamps at home? We can discuss and discuss."

"Which working-class family has this elegant atmosphere?" Meng Xiaoqing flipped through the stamp album. He noticed a stamp and said, "I have this monkey stamp in my house, too."

The monkey stamps that Meng Xiaoqing mentioned are the 80-year-old monkey stamps.

Zhao Qingshan was quite surprised: "You said you don't have this elegant pleasure?"

"I'm not happy. I happened to see your monkey stamp. I suddenly remembered that there was a bunch of these monkey stamps under my bed."

“One…a bunch?”

"Brother Xiaoshan, wait a moment, I'll give it to you."

Meng Xiaoqing ran away, then ran back again, holding a bunch of stamps in his hand... to be precise.

Zhao Qingshan was shocked in an instant. The collection under Meng Xiaoqing's bed was a complete collection of 80 monkey tickets, with a total of 20, totaling 1,600. The tickets were well preserved and were close to brand new!

Zhao Qingshan quickly returned to normal, and he asked: "Tell me, how did you come from these 20 Gengshen Monkey Tickets?"

"That was a few years ago. I had a distant cousin who worked at the Wuchang Post Office. The post office forced their internal employees to buy Gengshen Monkey Tags. My cousin was very reluctant to buy 20 pieces, one of which was 6.40 cents, and 20 pieces cost him 128 yuan. At that time, his salary was only more than 20 yuan, and he lost all his money overnight. In order to get married, he borrowed 150 yuan from my old man, but in the end he didn't pay back the money and used these 20 stamps to pay off his debts."

Meng Xiaoqing said truthfully that he is kind-hearted and helps anyone who is intimate with relatives.

These 20 monkey tickets became the property of the Meng family by paying off debts. The family of four did not pay much attention to it and kept it under Meng Xiaoqing's bed for several years.

Zhao Qingshan, in his previous life, has been in contact with the Meng family for a long time. In his impression, the Meng family seems to have never made any fortune.

Meng Shuizhi and his wife worked in Jianggang until they retired. Although the old couple was not rich, they lived long.

The moment before Zhao Qingshan was reborn, Meng Shuizhi and his wife were in their 80s. The old couple slowly grew old together and spent their old age in peace.

As the saying goes, good will be rewarded.

Isn’t health and peace the greatest reward?

Zhao Qingshan didn’t know where the 20 collections of the Meng family’s 80-year monkey tickets ended up going.

In this life, in the spring of 1987, they appeared before Zhao Qingshan.

China has issued so many stamps, only a very small number of them have become precious stamps.

The value of 80-year monkey tickets is higher than that of selling one by one.

A complete collection of monkey tickets sold for more than 100,000 yuan in the 1990s and more than one million yuan in the 21st century.

In the early 1987, their private transaction prices were not high. Because they were made by masters, they were exquisitely designed and commemorative, and were mostly used for mutual exchanges between philatelic enthusiasts.

"Since Brother Xiaoshan likes to collect stamps, I'll give you all these monkey tickets." Meng Xiaoqing was generous and a living boy who gave money.

"Do you know how much these 20 monkey tickets are worth?"

"One coin costs 8 cents, 1,600 coin is 128 yuan. I am not good at math, but this kind of math problem cannot defeat me."

"Brother, you can give it if you say you want to give it? Are you the one who makes the decision?"

"I really have the responsibility of these stamps. I am 18 years old this month and am an adult."

If Meng Xiaoqing knew that these 20 collections of monkey tickets could be sold at least 2 million yuan in 2019 1995, he would not be so generous to Zhao Qingshan.

But at this time, Meng Xiaoqing was sincere.

Zhao Qingshan was moved. He said, "Xiaoqing, I will help you save these monkey tickets for the time being. The space for them in my hands will definitely be greater than that of you."

"Brother Xiaoshan, I've said I've given it to you. Don't talk about money with me. Talk about money is hurting your relationship."

"I am relieved that Xiaoqing, you are loyal to me. But I would like to advise you not to be loyal to everyone, that is stupid."

"know."

"You don't want to go to Shandong."

"Um?"

"Xiaoqing, since you are determined to learn foreign languages, you can apply for a specialized foreign language college, Beijing Foreign Studies University, Shanghai Foreign Studies University, etc."

"Beijing Foreign Language? Go to the Foreign Language?"

"My personal advice is to go to the outside world. If you want to go out of the province, then go to the most economically developed city."

"I also want to go to Shanghai, but it's very difficult to take the exam at home and abroad, right?"

"Shanghai, English majors, these two elements have been confirmed, but there are actually quite a lot of choices. Fudan, East China Normal University, and Shanghai Jiaotong University all have English majors, and they are very strong. If you consider the brand of the school, Fudan and Shanghai Jiaotong University are more famous. How did I change? I suddenly want you to study in Fudan again."

"I want to do it too! The key is that I can pass the exam."

"Xiaoqing, stop memorizing words. The overall situation of your English score has been determined. The English test score is 100 points or 98 points, and the increment is not large. If you work hard in physics and chemistry, the increment may be considerable."

So today's learning topic was determined to be "Physics/Chemistry Intensive Class", with Zhao Qingshan as the lecturer.

At eight o'clock, Chen Yuyang, Gu Wenna and Lin Yuewei arrived at Zhao's mansion on time.

The three students who visited Zhao's mansion for the first time were familiar with the environment first, and the 28-square-meter one-and-a-half-bedroom apartment was soon completed.

The Zhao Mansion does not even have a black and white TV, and the highest-end appliance is a ceiling fan.

The students sighed: "The mountain is not high, but there are immortals, but there are names; the water is not deep; there are dragons, but there are spirits."

Meng Xiaoqing and Chen Yuyang are best friends who have been in love for more than ten years, while Gu Wenna and Lin Yuewei are best friends with similar relationships.

An extremely pure friendship was established between Chen Yuyang and Gu Wenna, so the four of them formed a small team.

Zhao Qingshan asked: "You three have copied all the English materials?"

"I've copied it, I've got one copy for everyone, it's quite useful!"

"How are your three physical and chemistry grades?"

Lin Yuewei replied: "Physics is 70 to 80, and chemistry is also 70 to 80."

Chen Yuyang said: "I am very good at physics, and I have been above 80 for a long time. Chemistry is not good, and I have never exceeded 70 for a long time."

Gu Wenna said: "The opposite of Chen Yuyang, chemistry is OK, but physics is not OK."
