Chapter 69
"Where's Yunfei?"

"I heard that he later opened a jewelry company in the provincial capital. The business is very big, probably worth hundreds of millions. He came here once the year before last, and the five extended black Mercedes-Benz were all exactly the same. Everyone in the county gathered around to watch. The county magistrate also came out to receive the reception. Yunfei looked at Xiaoyi Mountain and laughed, but donated 50 yuan to set up a Hope Primary School in the county. These are all on the surface. It is said that county-level cadres have received gifts. An emerald ring worth tens of thousands of yuan. For a time, anyone in the county who didn’t have an emerald ring was considered a low-level cadre and looked down upon by others. Has this matter caused a commotion for a while?”

Jin Qi said slowly: "The blasting point has been tampered with? What can be done?"

"Actually, it's not a squib, but a trigger wire is added. When dealing with a squib, the fuse bundle must be pulled out and reconnected. Think about the consequences of the newly added trigger wire being connected under the fuse bundle? Boom! Boom! gone."

Jin Qi filled himself with wine and drank three glasses in a row.

Old Cui looked at it, and suddenly asked, "Why didn't you ask your mother?"

After drinking another cup, he said, "Do you still need to ask? I haven't seen my mother since I was born. Yunfei found out where my father kept the memory crystal, and soon Yunfei opened a jewelry store. Isn't this all right?" Is it the mother's fault?"

"Child, maybe there is something else in this? Don't think Feng Chunye is so bad. She is married to Yunfei. The two young people who came with Yunfei the year before last are her and Yunfei's children. She I didn't come, probably because I was afraid of seeing the sad place."

"No, Second Uncle, she has no face. And Yunfei brought her children to show off and demonstrate to my father. She tolerated this kind of behavior is just as vicious as Yunfei."

"Don't say it so badly! She is your mother. Yunfei is Yunfei, and she is her."

"Mother? It's a strange name. Don't say it, second uncle, can you take me to see my father's grave?"

Old Cui stood up, supported the edge of the bed with both hands, jumped to the other side of the room with one foot, groped in the box for a while, took a bag and handed it to Jin Qi and said, "Tomorrow I will take you to see the grave. This is your Take what your father left for you."

Jin Qi took the cloth bag without putting it in his pocket. Just as he was about to say something, there was a burst of laughter and cursing from outside the house: "Damn old Cui, it's almost dark and you don't turn on the lights. What are you doing?" The figure slammed the door and entered.

Seeing Lao Cui's embarrassed face, Jin Qi hurriedly stood up.Old Cui pointed to the visitor and introduced: "She is the fat aunt who often comes to take care of me." Then he introduced Jin Qi to the visitor.

Fat Aunt smiled crisply and said, "Are there any guests? Tell me earlier, I'll order some dishes too. Oh, there are still a lot of dishes, have you all eaten?"

Jin Qi was very clear, and hurriedly said: "Second Uncle, you always have guests, so I will go back to the hotel first, and come back tomorrow morning. Fat aunt, take your time, and I will take my leave first." He smiled and walked out the door.After walking a few steps, I heard the fat aunt yelling in a low voice: "Young people are very sensible, but you call me fat aunt, where is the fat? People say this is plump. Who is he?"

"A nephew of mine."

"I don't care about him, you've had enough, go to bed, I've missed you since yesterday!"

Jin Qi looked back curiously, and through the door, he saw the two of them in a hurry, and then a big white buttock the size of a millstone raised up and down.Jin Qi hurriedly turned his face away, thinking that the fat aunt still feels sorry for the second uncle, knowing that his legs and feet are inconvenient, so she worked harder.

Find a big rock and sit down, slowly untie the cloth bag, a golden spar the size of a goose egg appears in front of you.After a long time, I often touch the surface of the spar, which is as smooth as a mirror, and the edges and corners of the four sides are worn bald.The spar shone with a faint halo under the dim moonlight, very beautiful and elegant, is this crystal?Looking closely, the spar is not transparent, and there are many misty fibers embedded in it. Using the "eye mirror" golden flag, it can be seen that these fibers are connected one by one, and they are still moving slowly.So funny!This is the father's precious "memory crystal"?How about using crystals to remember?He was at a loss, but he was sure that this was true. Other than his father, there was no one else in the world who knew the special features of this crystal and made a lot of money for it.Thinking of this, he felt his heart beating faster, his blood flowing faster and faster, and a kind of engraved hatred was tormenting his heart like anger!Unable to hold back, Jin Qi gritted his teeth and forced himself into a cultivation state, and slowly immersed himself in the cool moonlight, every inch of his skin felt the comfort of heaven and earth...

The next morning, Old Cui got up early, looking at the fat aunt who was still sleeping beside him, with a wry smile on his face.This 40-year-old woman is also a foreigner. She lives at the foot of the mountain. She has no children and no daughters guarding a grocery store. She always finds a day every week to go up the mountain to meet her with daily necessities. It has been more than ten years. , Day after day, I lived so unsaltedly.I also asked why she was so nice to a disabled person?She said: "You don't want to go back to your hometown, I can't go back to my hometown, let's help each other." Just such an ordinary woman is better than a fairy beauty in her heart. Choose the latter without hesitation.

Not wanting to disturb her, he gently opened the door and went out, only to see Jin Qi doing Tai Chi in the morning light not far away.The rising sun painted a circle of gold on his slowly dancing figure, looking like a fairy from a distance.He was startled, could it be that the boss's son is a wise and foolish guy?

Jin Qi also saw Lao Cui, waved his hand and ran over and said, "Second Uncle, I went to the county town to buy some breakfast, it's still hot, hurry up and eat with Second Aunt while it's hot."

Old Cui watched in surprise as Jin Qi took out a huge pile of steaming steamed buns, pancakes, and soy milk from the bamboo basket, all of which smelled tempting.There is a shop in the county where you can buy these breakfasts, and it is more than ten kilometers away from the Xiaoyishan quarry, and there is no decent road, let alone a car along the way.I don't know how this kid actually brought steaming breakfast?Old Cui was shocked in his heart and kept quiet, packed the breakfast into the house, and came out with a walking stick in one hand and oil on his mouth in the other hand, and said, "Let's go, let's go to your father's grave in the back mountain as soon as possible."

Jin Qi stepped forward to give him a hand, but Lao Cui put his crutch on the ground, and jumped forward with one leg "thumping", his movements were very agile and his speed was fast enough.After more than 40 minutes, I went around to the north slope of Xiaoyi Mountain, which is the back mountain.

Strangely, after turning around a mountain depression, the slope is full of shrubs and miscellaneous trees, which are considered to be verdant and verdant, which is completely different from the southern slope.A mountain stream came from nowhere, flying mist and splashing beads all the way, ding ding dong dong.The light fog that permeated the forest shrouded the steep back mountain in haze.The chirping of insects and the shadows of birds make this silent world full of mystery and weirdness.Maybe this is the reason why my father fell in love with Houshan?Jin Qi thought all the way, feeling surprisingly calm.

The two of them walked along the stream for a short while and walked two miles. A lying stone stood beside the stream, and two big characters "Jingxi" were engraved on the stone. Seeing God.

Old Cui knocked on the big rock with his walking stick, and said in a deep voice: "This is the handwriting of the boss, and he also carved the leopard himself. A hundred meters ahead is the birthplace of the Jingxi River, which is a small cave. It was in the cave that the boss found it. The treasure was lost, that is, the cave was blown up by Yunfei and the others digging up the treasure. But although the cave does not exist, the water is still flowing, let's go and have a look."

Sure enough, after walking [-] meters, a flat slope the size of a basketball court appeared in front of me, with cluttered rocks and weeds entangled. You can find traces of blasting rocks and prying stones carefully.Following the flow of the stream at my feet, I quickly found the source. There was a palm-width crack in the rock in a two-meter-square depression, and clear springs were gurgling upwards.

Old Cui gestured to both sides with his walking stick, and said: "It turns out that this is a cave, very short and narrow. After Yunfei and the others left, it would be a pile of rocks when I came back. It can be seen that they bombed the cave and the surrounding areas. Rock wall, this must be related to collecting crystals. I think they must have returned with a lot of rewards, because I found a few stonemasons who did the work, and they refused to say what they found at the time, but these people obviously had money and smoked. The peony card. At that time, all the people who could afford the peony were village chiefs and above."

Jin Qi didn't make a sound, but silently took a sip of the water in his cave and said, "Where's my father's grave?"

"It's on the top, not far away." Old Cui said as he walked, "The boss likes the back mountain. He often said that the north slope has a majestic spirit, so the forest is prosperous. After his death, the third brother suggested that the boss's ashes should be placed on the north slope and buried higher. , let him always be accompanied by awe-inspiring spirit. No, under the old chun tree is your father's grave."

The crown of the tree is like a cover, and in front of a pile of black soil under the tree stands a stone tablet with the simple words "Tomb of the educated youth Jin Dongqiang".

While pulling the weeds in front of the grave, Lao Cui took out three sticks of incense sticks from his pocket, lit them and stuck them in the mud, saying to himself: "Boss, I haven't seen you for two months, and the grass on the grave has grown taller again." Yes. Your son is here today. He is tall and big and looks like you back then. He can be seen as a man. I told him everything I know, and I don’t know if it’s right or wrong, a blessing or a curse. I think even He should understand his life experience. I won't ask him to avenge you, it's embarrassing him. Besides, one of the enemies is Feng Chunye, it's his mother, although Feng Chunye doesn't admit it. Listen to your son All these years he was brought up by your parents, Feng Chunye never went to see him, I will never recognize his sister-in-law again if she did this, and there is no one surnamed Feng in my eyes from now on."

Jin Qi took out a small wreath from his backpack and placed it in front of his father's grave, knelt down on his knees, hugged the tombstone with both hands, and sobbed silently with his head down.There are thousands of words in his mind but he doesn't know where to start. With his forehead against the cool tombstone, he feels that his father's soul is coming.

After the candles were burned out, Jin Qi said to Cui, "Second Uncle, you go back first, I am here to accompany father, and I will be back tomorrow."

"Are you going to stay for a day and a night? Have you prepared something to eat?"

"I'm carrying it in my backpack, Second Uncle, don't worry."

Old Cui looked at the golden flag for a long time, sighed, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Come back early, our uncle and nephew can have a few more drinks. I'll wait for you." The clicking sound gradually faded away.

Jin Qi was the only one left in the entire back mountain, and it was extremely quiet.Sitting in front of my father's tomb, I silently thought about some fragmented memories of my childhood, and I couldn't imagine how the two old and one young lived year after year only relying on my grandfather's meager retirement salary.Soon after graduating from technical school and starting work, the two elders died one after another. It was not some serious illness that took their lives, but they were tired of life. When the grandson was able to stand on his own, the only bright spot that supported his life went out.It is hard for Jin Qi to forget the words his grandfather said when he was dying: "Shame consumes more life than greed for poverty." His betrayal and abandonment of himself are even more a shame for the Jin family that they cannot face directly.It is this slow poison that makes people look down on their heads and consumes the lives of the two elders!Now how to do?Revenge on Yunfei?What about Fengchunye?Could it be that he was really capable of dealing with his mother?
Sitting in a daze, wanting to see, having a splitting headache, my whole body was limp as if being drained dry, and my whole body seemed to be stuck in a swamp and couldn't extricate myself...

When he woke up in a trance, it was already the next morning. In fact, what really woke him up was the non-stop ringing of the mobile phone in his pocket.When I touched it and opened it, it was Xiao Yaxian's sweet Shanghai accent: "Is it Jinqi? You haven't answered the phone for so long? Where are you?"

A series of questioning finally relieved Jin Qi's heavy head, and he told the story of coming to Xiaoyi Mountain.When Xiao Yaxian heard that Jin Qi was alone in northern Jiangsu to deal with some matters concerning his deceased father, he asked distressedly: "Can I let my sister come and accompany you? I'm leaving now in the afternoon, and I can arrive in the evening at most. Although I can't help What, it's good to accompany you."

Jin Qi said: "No need, you can come back in two or three days at most. Sister Xiao, do you have anything to do with me?"

"It's not a big deal. I wanted to tell you that the ten yuan of Hetian seeds that I gave me last time were all sold out, and I also ordered ten yuan. Especially the medium-sized ones, about [-] kilograms, and the bright-colored ones are very popular. Welcome. So I guess..."

"No problem, I'll ask someone to give you 20 yuan later that meets your requirements."

"Brother Jin, how can I thank you? Last time I sold the goods with a minimum of 30 per kilogram and a maximum of 36 per kilogram. Calculate how much I earned? This kind of top-notch, top-notch collection-grade Recently, beautiful jade has become more and more fashionable and popular in the gold circle of Shanghai. It is said to be the treasure of the town house and the industry. So I want to know how many treasures you can provide? If there are not many, I still want rare goods to live in! Mr. Cai showed me a piece of mutton fat white jade that had just been strengthened for more than 700 million yuan. I took out the last piece of seed that had been sold and was temporarily in the store for comparison. Mr. Cai was like a child. I cried. Think about the tears and snot of billionaires in their 60s, and they are not scared by your jade. Putting more than 700 million suet white jade with our jade, it will not be named immediately 'Bai' has been changed to 'Qing'! Do you think it is heaven and earth?" Xiao Yaxian's words were full of pride and joy, and she asked repeatedly: "So I want to know how much I can get? Of course last time you said If you can give me 200 yuan within a year, what I'm asking is how much can I have in the near future?"

Hearing that the sales of white jade had started, Jin Qi also got excited and said, "Let's order 100 yuan first, about [-] kilograms."

"Ah! Two thousand kilograms, even if one kilogram earns fifty thousand yuan, isn't it one hundred million yuan?" She could hear her jumping for joy.

"Sister Xiao, let's not say much. Yu will send magpies and poisonous snakes to deliver it tomorrow. The money will be placed with you first. Don't spread the jade materials all at once, sell slowly, otherwise the price will drop."
