Chapter 238 Old John's Past
The sudden rise to star caught Jiang Qi off guard. Although Wang Erya's rise to star was also sudden last time, she was somewhat prepared when the video exploded.

Old John's progress was still a long way off yesterday, but he suddenly rose to stardom today, and now Jiang Qi doesn't even know where Old John is.

When Jiang Qi heard the game prompt, his first reaction was to find Old John, his second was where Old John was, and his third reaction was to ask Feng Guihua where Old John was.

"Grandma Feng, do you know where Mr. John is? Did he come to the braised mei restaurant for lunch today?" Jiang Qi strode forward and grabbed Feng Guihua's hand and asked.

"Ah?" Feng Guihua was dumbfounded by this sudden question.

"He has just been promoted to a three-star. The last time Erya was promoted to a three-star, it took nearly 20 minutes to select a three-star. During the entire selection period, her people were in a state of emptying. If Mr. John is opening a book now, it will be troublesome if the player sees it."

As soon as Jiang Qi emphasized Feng Guihua, he remembered: "Come to eat, I remember Xinghua girl said that Xiao Huang didn't cook lunch today. There is a part-time girl who seems to ask him to change the book. He should be in the old shop in the alley now. inside."

After hearing this, Jiang Qi ran towards the old shop.

Feng Guihua stood there and thought for a while, then ran towards the old shop with small steps, as if she was going to the next village to watch other people quarrel.

Although she is still not very familiar with Old John (Old John doesn't talk much), Feng Guihua thinks that she still can't miss the lively event of being promoted to three stars.

Feng Guihua not only ran over by herself, but also took out her mobile phone and sent a message to Wang Xinghua and the others to tell them that Old John had been promoted to Samsung, and asked everyone to go and watch.

When Jiang Qi ran into the old store, Old John was dozing off on the sofa.

Of course, just looking like dozed off.

With his head down, his eyes closed, his head resting on his hands is similar to that of a student sleeping in class, and the open character book is still pressed under his elbow. Hold this position and squint for a while.

From the current point of view, this posture is very deceptive, at least he managed to confuse Wang Erya who was making milk tea.

Wang Erya was at the bar, and she could see Old John as soon as she turned her head, and she didn't find anything wrong.

"Boss, what's the matter? Is the milk tea order from the new store in a hurry? I still have two cups to make, and I'll send them over when I'm done." Wang Erya saw Jiang Qi in a hurry He rushed in and asked.

"No." Jiang Qi shook his head, "Old John has been promoted to three stars."

Wang Erya opened her mouth slightly in surprise, and immediately turned her head to look at Old John on the sofa, and found that she looked normal, she couldn't help sighing: "Mr. John is so smart, he even knows how to pretend to be asleep after being promoted to three stars."

"Samsung will probably take a while to choose, so let's just wait here." Jiang Qi said, walking to the bar and sitting down.

As soon as the words fell, Feng Guihua stepped into the store.

"Boss, I've already given it to Xiao Huang, Xinghua girl and Erya... so Erya is here." Feng Guihua's attention was instantly attracted by the snow cup in Wang Erya's hand, "Erya, you Can you teach me how to make milk tea? I really haven't touched this thing much."

"Okay." Wang Erya nodded with a smile, "It's very simple to make milk tea. Grandma Feng, you cook so deliciously. If you learn to make milk tea, you will definitely learn it all at once."

Feng Guihua walked into the bar to wash her hands, and while waiting for Old John to make a three-star choice, she learned how to make milk tea.

Taking advantage of this time, Jiang Qi could also calm down and think about why Old John suddenly became a star.

Jiang Qi first clicked on Old John's live recording, and found that the number of clicks did not skyrocket. Obviously, it was not because the screen recording became popular, and the traffic skyrocketed.

Immediately afterwards, Jiang Qi searched for videos related to advanced mathematics teaching in several video apps. None of the popular videos had anything to do with Old John. Obviously, it was not because some marketing accounts suddenly became popular because they were idle and bored.

What is that for?

Jiang Qi scratched his head in a little confusion. Why did so many people suddenly contribute to Old John's prestige during the New Year's Eve? Old John didn't have any special achievements other than live broadcasting and teaching advanced mathematics on the Internet.Although his textbook has basically been compiled and is currently undergoing final proofreading, it has not been published yet.

It's impossible for a hacker to hack into the computer that Jiang Qi bought for Old John, and post the teaching materials on the Internet to benefit postgraduate students.

Wait, postgraduate entrance examination!

Jiang Qi suddenly realized something.

Jiang Qi resolutely opened QQ, which had not been opened for nearly a month, and waited for a few minutes to update and load the data.

The top group chat is obviously Old John's fan support group. There are not many people in the group, more than 400 people. They all got up at six o'clock every day to learn advanced mathematics after following the live broadcast.

After Old John finished all the content of high mathematics and work mathematics, Jiang Qi didn't pay much attention to this support group.Although the anchor is off the air, the postgraduate students in the group are still in the group every day, sharing postgraduate information, notes, news, progress, and cheering for each other, turning this group into a mutual aid group for postgraduate entrance examinations.

But today, the news in the group is very fast.

Jiang Qi clicked into the group chat, and there was joy in the group.

Teacher John is my God: I have crossed the line! ! !My high score is 117 points! ! !Thank you Mr. John! ! !

Mr. John yyds: It’s over the line, it’s over the line, thank you Mr. John for saving my dog’s life! ! ! ! !

An ordinary graduate student: [crying] I only scored 37 points in the English test and did not pass the line, but I was too bad at the high math test. I am sorry for Mr. John's online class

Going ashore in Wuhu: touching

May Teacher John bless the believer girl to go ashore: Hey, we save three o'clock to get the results...

The fried chicken is so delicious :same

Begging to go ashore: We save the day after tomorrow, suffering QAQ
……

The chat in the group is all about postgraduate entrance examination results.

"How is Brother John? Has he remembered? Is he still there? He won't be leaving, is he? Brother John..." Huang Fugui rushed in, and when he entered the door, he saw Old John sitting on the sofa. rest assured.

"He is still making three-star selections." Jiang Qi explained.

"Oh, Uncle Huang, why are you running so fast? I almost couldn't catch up with you. Don't worry, Mr. John will definitely not choose to go back. He will have to be reincarnated to do what he wants to do?" Huang Fugui entered the store, Wang Xinghua The back foot floated there, and the person floated in, not to mention grabbing a bag of melon seeds in his hand.

"Boss, do you want melon seeds? I bought them at a convenience store last night. I made a mistake and bought the original flavor, which is not as delicious as caramel." Wang Xinghua handed melon seeds to Jiang Qi, who grabbed a handful.

"By the way, why did Brother John suddenly become a star?" Huang Fugui felt relieved seeing that Old John was still there, and sat down and asked.

"It should be because some provinces have postgraduate entrance examination results today." Jiang Qi said, seeing several people looking at him in confusion, he quickly explained, "You should know that the audience of Mr. John's live broadcast on the Internet before are mainly people who have taken the postgraduate entrance examination. Bar?"

Huang Fugui, Wang Erya and Wang Xinghua all nodded, only Feng Guihua was still a little confused, and began to reflect on whether he didn't know his colleagues well enough these days.

"The results of the postgraduate entrance examination are usually announced at this time. The time for the announcement of the results of each province is different, but they are very close, with a difference of only a few days at most. Last year, my postgraduate entrance examination results were announced on the day of the Lantern Festival, so I always feel that the postgraduate entrance examination The score should be announced around the Lantern Festival, but I didn’t expect it to be possible during this period of time, so I didn’t pay attention.”

"I just took a look at Mr. John's fan group. Most of the people who sent messages have passed the mark, and the few who have not passed the mark have not passed the mark in other subjects. The high score is generally quite high."

"This shows that Mr. John's live teaching is very useful, at least for these loyal viewers. For them, Mr. John contributed a lot to their ability to pass the postgraduate entrance examination mathematics and get a good result. Today, I checked the score and found that Not only is the high score for passing the line high, but the first reaction is of course that Teacher John is responsible for this, and the contribution is extremely loved, and the reputation value of respect and recognition is very normal."

"I doubted before that one person can contribute three kinds of reputation points at the same time. Today, I have contributed respect points before, and now I am contributing extreme love. Teacher John is not too far behind, and it is reasonable to get full all at once. "

Huang Fugui suddenly realized and nodded, Wang Xinghua was thoughtful.

"It turns out that Mr. John is so good at teaching. Should I ask him how to teach physics and mathematics? Erya's progress in mathematics and physics is really too slow compared to English." Wang Xinghua murmured.

Jiang Qi: ...

Shouldn't the first reaction of a normal person be to ask Old John to teach Wang Erya mathematics and physics?

"Xiao Yue was really a teacher before?" Feng Guihua was a little confused, "What do you teach? Mathematics? Is their British mathematics the same as ours? I have always heard that foreigners are special in mathematics. Difference."

Wang Erya hurriedly explained the situation of Old John to Feng Guihua, so that she could understand when Old John recalled all his memories and told everyone.

Speaking of which, Old John probably has the most amnesia among the crowd.

Although Feng Guihua is only one star, she still has a memory in "New Year's Eve Dinner", so Feng Guihua not only remembers the fragments of getting along with her relatives, but also has memories of what she did before and how her family was. , her fragmented memories can at least be strung together.

I don’t think about Old John, it’s also a fragmented memory, but it can’t be strung together so much that it’s too fragmented. Until now, everyone doesn’t know how Old John changed from a wealthy schoolboy to the latter.

Everyone gathered around the bar and waited quietly for Old John to make a three-star selection.

The strange thing is that this time Old John chose a longer time than Wang Erya last time.

It stands to reason that with Wang Erya in front, Old John roughly knows the process of Samsung's selection, so the speed should be faster.But everyone was waiting at the bar, and Wang Xinghua would float upstairs from time to time to see if anyone came down from upstairs. Wang Erya had already made milk tea and sent it to the new store, and Old John hadn't finished choosing.

"No, Brother John thinks that the working hours are too long, so he doesn't want to stay here and wants to go back directly?" Huang Fugui panicked, "I remember Brother John told me before, what law said that one week's work It can't be longer than a few hours."

Jiang Qi: ...

"...No...it's not possible, right?" Jiang Qi was inexplicably guilty, "I bought all the medical insurance and social insurance for the regular employees, and signed the labor contract, and I also bought the medical insurance for Erya. I will also buy them together. Although the working hours are a bit longer, it is considered a regular company, right?"

Just when Jiang Qi began to reflect on himself, Old John moved.

He slowly opened his eyes as if he had just woken up, sat up straight calmly, closed his book, looked at the people at the bar, and said without expression: "I'm Samsung."

Huang Fugui rushed up excitedly and gave Old John a hug.

"Great, Brother John, I knew you would stay!"

Old John who was suddenly hugged: ...

When did he give everyone the illusion that Huang Fugui thought that he might leave, and he would die if he went back.

"Mr. John, do you remember what happened before?" Wang Erya trotted in front of Old John and asked expectantly.

Old John nodded, and began to tell his story under everyone's expectant eyes.

Compared with the story of Old John's son John Jr. in "Mask Club", Old John's story is actually more dramatic and more scripted.

Old John was a nobleman.

It's not a nobleman of country y, but a nobleman from a small country with rich oil resources in the Middle East, which is directly converted from his world.

The culture of the world that Old John belongs to is very diverse, to some extent even more diverse than the world that Wang Xinghua belongs to.

His original country was a feudal monarchy + slavery, and the country Y he lived in later was a capitalist country.And the world he belongs to also has pure slavery, pure feudal monarchy, chaotic warlord separatism, semi-colonial and semi-feudal, pure colonial and socialist countries.

In such a chaotic world, Old John, as an aristocrat from a wealthy and small country, was born as a master.

Old John's aristocratic life continued until he was 20 years old.

"Because I have a talent for science and engineering since I was a child, my learning progress has always been far beyond the school's teaching content. So after finishing elementary school, I stayed at home and was taught by a dedicated tutor. At the age of 16 , I went to country y to study in country y on the suggestion of my tutor to learn bridge construction."

"In order to make my study abroad life enjoyable, my father bought me a property in country y, and rented a bank safe to store a lot of cash, checks, jewelry and gold bricks in it for me to take out at any time."

Jiang Qi: ? ? ?
He really doesn't understand the life of your rich and nobles, is it just a study?
Perhaps because he saw Jiang Qi's expression, Old John continued: "Actually, I was also surprised that my father stored so many belongings in the safe at that time, but since those belongings are not considered a lot for my family, so I I didn't ask any more questions."

"Because of my heavy studies, I haven't been back to China since the year before graduation. My father was very active in this matter. Not only did he not urge me to find time to go back to China like my mother did, but he also let me I stayed in Country Y to complete my studies with peace of mind. At that time, I just thought he was abnormal but didn't ask any more questions. I didn't understand the reason until the news that he was beheaded by the new king came."

"My father and my uncle were on the wrong side of politics. He probably expected his end before sending me abroad. My father, mother and my uncle were executed for treason, and my sister was caught on the way to escape. Imminent death sentence."

"A warrant for my arrest was issued in China, and a cross-border pursuit could not be carried out due to various reasons. At that time, I tried all available methods in country y to rescue my sister but failed. Just when I was desperate, I received a message from Mask Club invitation."

"Actually, I heard about the Mask Club a long time ago. Most of the people associated with this club are dead or crazy. The few remaining people are famous but they don't talk about this club. I know this club. With some divine grace, I attended the party according to the time and place on the invitation letter."

"You exchanged your sister's life?" Jiang Qi asked.

Old John nodded: "Life is the most expensive commodity in the club, and the second only to life is freedom. The irony is that the most expensive commodity in the club is life and freedom, but it does not accept these two things."

"It doesn't like to let traders die too quickly. It likes to see them suffer, see them struggle, and see them despair."

"During the transaction, I thought the most valuable things in me were my mind and the property my father left me. But these things are not valued by the club. The cheapest transaction is money, and they have no regard for my mind. interest."

"Then what did they take?" Wang Xinghua asked.

Old John lowered his eyes: "A lot."

"Family, friendship, love, career, chance, luck, the right to enjoy life, surnames and all that doesn't matter."

"After the transaction was completed, my sister was acquitted and released, but she was going to be deported. I didn't believe in evil at the time, and I didn't believe that the club could take away all those intangible things."

"I tried to contact my sister, but she seemed to have forgotten me, and there was no response to the letter I wrote."

"I try to interview companies, and the resumes I send out never get a response. I interview for lower paying jobs and get rejected for various reasons."

"The things in the safe belong to me, but every time I try to go to the bank to get them, I fail. The house is mine, but I can't walk in."

"My former classmates and friends began to alienate me. I could only do some odd jobs and immigrate to country Y as a refugee. I started to be poor and lived like a lonely tramp. Other tramps can have friends, I can't even make homeless friends."

"Just when I was feeling hopeless about my life, my ex-wife suddenly started pursuing me."

"She was born in the slums, but she is a rare beauty in the slums. Her sudden pursuit was like a life-saving straw for me. I began to think that if the club didn't take my love, other things could be traded. Come back."

"Maybe I didn't love her, maybe there was never love between us, but I married her very quickly to grab this straw."

"She is an extremely unstable person, sometimes normal and sometimes crazy. This marriage lasted for more than four years, and three children were born in the middle, and finally went to disintegration. You should all know the following things, which are written in the script. Same."

"I moved to a cleaning hut in a wealthy neighborhood, accepted the job of sweeping the streets arranged by the government, and lived like that until I died."

"As for why my ex-wife suddenly pursued me crazily and married me, the reason is actually very ridiculous."

"She thought I was some weird rich guy."

"She should have met me before, before my parents died. She thought I was playing poor role-playing, plus her mentality was extremely unstable, and she might have some mental illness. There was no emotion in this paragraph. The marriage lasted for 4 years, and she didn't divorce me until she was sure that I was really a poor person with nothing."

"After the divorce I chose to move into the cleaning hut because my house was next to it. The books in the room were all bought in college, and the only useful thing the club didn't take away was my mind. , although it is no longer useful, but at least reading can become my pastime."

"My personality is getting weirder, more withdrawn, and less human. Only reading can allow me to find myself for a short time, and make me feel that I am a living person, and I will not collapse and commit suicide."

"Thinking about it now, the rest of my life seems to have been competing with the Mask Club. I know it wants to break me down, make me desperate, make me crazy or seek death, but I don't."

"I'm going to live next door to the house that belongs to me, I'm going to live in poverty, I'm going to use my mind, I'm going to look human."

Old John, who recalled all his memories, looked very melancholy and depressed, which was unavoidable.Those memory fragments were not so bad when I lost my memory, but now that my memory has recovered, I basically remember all the bad things.

Old John's life after the age of 20 has completely bid farewell to happiness. The most ironic thing is that he obviously owns a very considerable amount of property, but because of the transaction, he has nothing.The Mask Club didn't take away the money he had at the time of the deal, but took his money forever.

"Then... Teacher John, your surname..." Wang Xinghua hesitated to speak.

"Survival, survivor." Old John said, "This can be regarded as a kind of competition. It took away my surname, and I have to get a new one for myself."

Huang Fugui opened his mouth not knowing what to say, he thought for a long time before saying: "Brother John, you are a man!"

"That's what's so hot, it's not really a thing, why is there no evil cultivator in your world who took over that organization." Huang Fugui said angrily, "It's really a harmful thing, if you want to trade it, trade it, trade your life for it If you accept your fate, you will accept it. It is really not a good thing to torture people!"

Jiang Qi: ...

"Is it possible that the Mask Club itself is an organization of evil cultivators? I think its trading model and tricks of deceiving people are similar to the evil cultivators in my world. Wasn't my father just so fooled by the evil cultivators and then died? ?" Wang Xinghua calmly analyzed.

Jiang Qi & Old John: ...

Old John suddenly felt that he should read a few books to calm down.

"By the way, Brother John, did you send anything to the boss?" Huang Fugui asked.

"Give it away." Old John said, "I don't have anything, the most is money."

Jiang Qi:!
Is he going to get rich?

He wants to make a fortune and reach the pinnacle of his life by relying on gifts from employees? !
"But the voice told me that because of the difference in the world, my real estate cannot be gifted directly, and most of the money cannot be gifted directly. It made a long list with me, saying that it can be gifted with the equivalent value of my property. There are too many items and the list is too long, I was really impatient after listening for more than ten minutes, so I asked it to send the most expensive one."

Jiang Qi:! ! !
Old John, you are my God!
"I'm actually not very clear about what exactly I sent."

Just then, a message from Xiaoka came.
