Chapter 3 [Going Home]

Next, all I have to do is the only one left - find someone who can successfully spend 10 million to help me get my first pot of gold.

I cleaned up briefly, bought the earliest air ticket, went to Jiujiang, Jiangxi, and went to Lushan to find my parents who were recuperating there.

Speaking of which, they have lived in Lushan for more than three years, but they are still unwilling to return to Nanjing. They would rather be a mountain villager on Lushan and watch all kinds of tourists coming and going on Lushan every day, tirelessly. On the way I went there, I kept wondering whether the permanent residents on Lushan would become like the woodcutter boy next to Zhuge Liang's house, and they would come to Duanshan to tune wild songs. I absolutely believe that my father has such ability.

When I saw me, my parents seemed surprised, or rather, they were surprised by my condition.

In their eyes, although I am about to be thirty years old, I am still a child. Moreover, I have always been like a little sour scholar since I was a child. Many friends and elders have said that the first impression I give people is the image of a slightly sick scholar. But this time, my mental outlook is obviously different. My father saw me wandering around me three times, and kept making some noises in his mouth, as if he was amazed.

"Tsk, tsk, is this still my son?"

I looked at my father with anger, "Just say I'm starting to move towards old age, so it's not like this, right?"

The father laughed, "You child, if you are old, what should I do with your mother? I was just curious, why did my son go from a poor scholar to a radical young man from the May Fourth era? Changing into Zhongshan suits and wearing a white scarf, is he definitely a revolutionary young man like Chen Duxiu Yu Dafu?" After saying that, he still called my mother's name as if he wanted to confirm his words, "Old Liu, come and see if your son looks like a May Fourth youth?"

My mother walked out of the kitchen with an apron and smiled and scolded my father, "You old guy, my son has a rare time to come to see us. You don't let him sit down quickly. Why are you teasing him for nothing?" But, no matter how he said, my mother was stunned when she saw me. Then she circled around me three times like her father, "But Lao Shi, is this really our son?"

I smiled and hugged my parents with one hand, "Okay, my dear parents, I just suddenly woke up and decided to do something. You were right in the past, but now it is the economy and society. You can't go on with the poems of spring and autumn. Even if I don't think about myself, I have to think about you, right?"

This is not the truth. There is only one reason why I suddenly want to make a fortune in the economy, which is Li Xiaoyu... or, it is the contemptuous gaze of those rich people. I want to prove that as long as I am willing, I can do better than them. I have to say that there is another sinister purpose in my heart, that is, when I am full of wings, I will do everything to attack Li Xiaoyu and her husband's property, at any cost, as long as they can know the pain of losing all the pain...

I don’t know if my thoughts made my mother see a trace of gloom in my eyes, but my father smiled and said nothing. He basically adopted a supportive attitude in my decision, except that when he was a child, he often stood aside with bamboo sticks when he forced me to memorize "The Strategies of the Warring States".

After dinner, my father went out for a walk routinely and asked me if I would go. I said I was a little tired and would accompany him tomorrow, and then stayed in the bedroom my mother had arranged for me, turned on the computer and started to search for some information online.

I don’t know when my mother came in. She put a cup of brewed tea in front of me, and I suddenly found someone standing behind me.

I turned around and smiled at my mother, "Mom, don't worry about me, your TV series time has come..." After that, I turned around and continued to look at the computer screen.

My mother slowly spoke behind me, "Lei'er, I always feel something is wrong with you when you come back this time. Your father always has thick lines, but he can't tell it, but I always feel that you have changed a little. I remember that your eyes were clean before, without any impurities at all, but now it's not right. I always feel that there are too many things hidden inside."

I forced a smile, "Mom, you're so careless. I'm fine. I just feel a little stupid in the past. Why are you better? Reading so many books, is it really like Cao Xueqin?"

"As a mother, I support you very much. My father and I didn't think there was anything wrong with your life before. But since you want to change your lifestyle, we will certainly support you. But, child, don't act you may regret in the future because of a temporary emotional blind spot..."

My mother was still talking, and I suddenly felt a little impatient, turned around and stood up, facing my mother, shouting loudly, "Okay, I'll run far away to this remote countryside to see you, don't stop it? Can you do it? I'm working hard and tiring alone in Nanjing, and I don't want to be even more tired when I see you..."

My voice was so loud that I didn't believe it myself. The expression on my mother's face suddenly became dull. From childhood to adulthood, I have never used such an attitude towards my parents. When I was younger, I was in the rebellious period of youth, but I also met with what I didn't want to hear and did not hear it. My parents have become accustomed to my stubbornness and persistence, but I have never seen my attitude like this.

I also regretted it. Seeing my mother's aging face, I felt so sad. Standing in front of me, I could clearly see her head. Although I was not particularly old, my years of mental labor had already made her hair white, but I still...

My nose was a little sore, and I reached out to hold my mother in my arms, "Sorry, mom, I didn't mean to do this. It's just that I don't like my current life very much. I hope to change and I hope to get your support."

My mother also began to shed tears, and tears oozed in through my thin T-shirt, making me even more ashamed.

"I'm not intentionally nagging you. I read the information you just asked about, which are all related to real estate policies. We all know the situation at home. We also know how much deposits you can have. How can you get involved in this industry? I'm worried that you will go the wrong way..."

I let go of my mother and wiped the tears from her face, "Mom, don't worry, I'm just helping a real estate developer to make money. I'm not planning to rob the bank..."

My mother laughed at my words, and the unhappiness just now disappeared.

"If you need any help, I think your father can help. His students heard that there are several households with hundreds of millions of dollars now, so maybe they can give you some advice..." My mother said very tactfully. She also knew that although my father was very cheerful, it was definitely difficult to ask him to borrow money from his students. However, I never thought about who to borrow money from. I said that there is no help for no reason. This is not a novel, but life.

"It's okay, I won't lend money to anyone. Besides, even if my dad is willing to speak, real estate, it's tens of millions of dollars, who dares to lend it to me?" I smiled and comforted my mother. My mother nodded, stopped talking, and turned around and left my room.

I sat in front of the computer again and started to query the information I needed.
