Chapter 27 Dying in the rich is a shame

Chapter 27 It's a Shame to Die in the Rich (Seek Support)

The character of the old man in front of him is undoubtedly noble and great. This money has been accumulated by the old man all his life, so how can he ask for it?
Before Li Zetian could speak, a voice suddenly sounded from the side.

"Old man, we can't ask for this money!!!"

It was Tang Jiawei who spoke. He was not far away, and he obviously heard the conversation here.At this moment, he came over, zipped up the leather bag, and said to the old man, "The money is your hard-earned money, we can't take it!"

The old man shook his head and said, "I am a person who has stepped into the coffin. Why do I need so much money? Didn't someone say, 'It is a disgrace to die among the rich!' I don't want to take so much money with me." Money dies!"

Tang Jiawei said: "That's what Carnegie, the steel magnate, said, but $10 is not a huge fortune. It's your pension money in your later years. You shouldn't donate it! How do you live after donating money?"

"I can still make money!" The old man said stubbornly, sitting on the stool, assuming that if you don't take money, I won't leave!
Li Zetian asked: "Old man, do your children agree to your donation?"

The old man shook his head: "I have no children, so you don't have to worry!"

Hearing this, Li Zetian felt a sense of desolation in his heart.He turned his head and gave Tang Jiawei a wink, called to the side, and said in a low voice: "The old man doesn't even have a child, but he is willing to donate all of his wealth. He is definitely an old man worthy of our respect. Do you think this will work?" , The money is collected, but arrange a very leisurely and easy job for him in the school, such as taking a walk every day, watering the flowers and trees, anyway, the school is so big, there is not much to do, it is right Let him live here for the rest of his life and have something to rely on. Of course, if you don’t want to, it’s okay, then the 10 US dollars will definitely not be accepted..."

Tang Jiawei nodded, "You are right, just do what you want. The Confucius Chinese Academy will be his retirement home from now on, and we will take good care of him!"

"Ok!"

Tang Jiawei and Li Zetian walked up to the old man together, Tang Jiawei said: "Old man, we can accept the money, but we have one more condition, that is, let you come to our school as a gardener, and water the flowers and plants here every day if you have nothing to do." , our school provides accommodation and meals, would you like to?"

The old man has lived for a long time, and his heart is like a mirror. This place is so big, and all the work can be done in less than half an hour, and it is still an easy job of watering. Who wants to hire an old man to do the work? They must have heard that they had no children, and felt sympathetic. In order to take care of themselves, they asked for themselves to be gardeners.

The old man was very moved, thought for a while, and agreed: "Okay, since you don't dislike my old age, then I will come to help you..."

Tang Jiawei and Li Zetian looked at each other and smiled.

"Old man, you will be a member of our school from now on!" Tang Jiawei walked up to the old man and stretched out his hand.

The old man shook hands excitedly and said, "Okay, okay!"

Li Zetian smiled in satisfaction, then greeted Tang Jiawei and went to find Yu Jingqiu.

At this moment, the ceremony is almost over.

Yu Jingqiu asked, "What are you talking about?"

"Did you see that old man over there? He donated all his life savings - 10 U.S. dollars to the school, so that Chinese compatriots can learn the Chinese language and fulfill his regret..."

Hearing this, Yu Jingqiu couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "This is a respectable old man!"

"Yes." Li Zetian couldn't help but nodded.

In fact, the old man just quoted Carnegie's words has caused Li Zetian to think deeply.

"It's a disgrace to die among the rich!"

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has a heart.

Li Zetian is convinced that with his memory and technology ahead of this era, he has no problem becoming the richest man in the world.

So, do you want to die among the rich?
Li Zetian suddenly thought of his previous life experience, a lonely orphan, sleeping in the street, suffering from cold and hunger, being looked down upon by others, and experiencing all the pain in the world.

"If I earn a lot of money, I must do charity. I don't do charity for corporate or personal tax cuts, but to help those helpless and helpless children from the bottom of my heart!!! The money is taken from it For the people, it should be used for the people!!!" Li Zetian said to himself.

At this moment, Li Zetian felt that his purpose of making money was no longer dirty and selfish, because he shouldered a great mission and responsibility! ! !

At noon, Li Zetian and Yu Jingqiu had lunch at the Confucius Chinese Academy, and then bid farewell to Tang Jiawei.

Back at Harvard University, Li Zetian once again entered into the development of BASIC language that he forgot to eat and sleep. At this moment, he seems to be more motivated than before.

……

Universities in the United States generally have a three-month long vacation and start school on September 3, which means that the Harvard University final exam will be held in May.

When Harvard University entered May, it can be clearly felt that the atmosphere of learning is getting stronger and stronger, the library is basically full, and even Bill Gates and Steve Ballmer are stepping up their review.I am afraid that in the whole Harvard University, Li Zetian is the only one who is indifferent to this final exam.

For Li Zetian, the school computer room is where he spends most of his time. Like Paul Allen in his previous life who developed BASIC, he also used the school computer to imitate the 8080 integrated block to develop the BASIC language.At this moment, he has devoted himself to the development of the BASIC language. In his previous life, Paul Allen and Bill Gates completed this work together, but in this life, Li Zetian completed this work alone. Therefore, he I had to redouble my efforts, and as for the courses in school, I had to give up completely.

Yu Jingqiu was worried that Li Zetian would fail the final exam, so she asked him once.

Li Zetian did not answer, but asked: "If I want to drop out of school and start a business, will you support it?"

When Yu Jingqiu heard this, she was silent for a while, then nodded firmly and said: "Support! No matter what you want to do, I will support it, because I believe in you!!!"

The sentence "Because I believe in you" moved Li Zetian quite a bit. He held Yu Jingqiu in his arms and promised her: "When I drop out of school today, there may be many people pointing at you behind your back, saying that the boyfriend you found is not good. Say you have no vision, but I believe that one day, I will definitely return as king!!!"

"Well, I'll wait for you!!!" Yu Jingqiu raised her head and kissed Li Zetian directly!
