National Tide 1980

Chapter 12 Apprenticeship

Fortunately, the biggest advantage of Kang Shude's personality is that he doesn't like to worry about minutiae.

Just like the monkey ticket thing, the old man had not tried to persuade Ning Weimin, fearing that he would waste his money.

But after his duty was done, Ning Weimin refused to listen and insisted on having his own way, so it was up to him.

Did he earn the money anyway?

Same this time.

Having clearly sensed Ning Weimin's sincerity, Kang Shude didn't pay too much attention to the disrespectful way this boy compared himself to a cornstarch.

Just think of this as a young person talking without hesitation.

The old man was concerned about another thing, so he had to explain it to Ning Weimin in advance.

"Wei Min, I have to say there is some truth to what you said. Not many young people have your vision and knowledge. Whether it's about work or thinking, you have no choice. You are a good material. So. You want to worship me as your master and value me so much, which makes me happy from the bottom of my heart."

"Actually, you can say this. Even now that I'm old, I really want to talk to people about things from back then. You're willing to listen to my nagging, which is something I really want."

"What's more, we, father and son, are quite destined. Because of this small room, you and I have come here from all over the world. We have had conflicts, but they are more about the same situation and shared fate. Friendship. Therefore, I don’t have to hide it from you, right?"

"But the problem is, I can't mislead others. If you learn from me, you won't learn well. To be honest, there are many shady things in this industry. That is business. What is business? Business, business, deceiving people with ideas. . This is different from a business that pays attention to genuine goods at a reasonable price. It is a partial one. When you learn this, you are learning to be opportunistic and learn how to calculate people's hearts. I am really afraid that I will distort your mind and harm you. "

"Let me ask you. Do you just want to be alone all your life? Don't you want to find a stable and decent job to start a family? You have to work down-to-earth and do your job, and then you can have a good future. , have a stable and normal life.”

"Take a good look at me. How I struggled in the first half of my life, how I suffered in the second half of my life, and how I spent my whole life busy. I am old and old, and when I get to this stage, all I have is empty fists. Do you want to be like me?"

There is no doubt that Kang Shude's passionate words came from the bottom of his heart.

As soon as he heard it, he knew that the old man was sincerely doing the best for Ning Weimin.

But having said that, although Buddhism is broad, it cannot save those who are not destined to it.

This Ning Weimin is no longer the Ning Weimin of the past.

This kid's soul that traveled through time is the darkest in the world.

When I came to this era, I was just holding a fire in my heart, and I was rushing to become a powerful speculator.

So these words are useless.

Ning Weimin still has the mentality of not giving up until he hits the wall.

"Old man, let me tell you this. I can't stand restraint and am used to being free and loose. What I yearn for is the vast sea and sky, but what I'm afraid of is living the same way every day and leaving my destiny in the hands of others."

"Also, don't forget, I am an orphan and helpless. I am not born on the same starting line as others. To live a normal life, I can only lag behind others or stand aside. A good thing. How could it be my turn?"

"So I have thought very clearly that I have no one to rely on except myself. I have to rely on myself to find another way to survive."

"You don't want me to be a useless waste and live my whole life, do you? You don't want me to be willful and cause a mess that I can't clean up, right? So if you are really good for me, then you should help me. .”

Hey, look at what he said, but it pushed Kang Shude into a moral blind spot.

But the old man is not a vegetarian. After all, he is an old man who relies on his mouth to eat.

Although he sighed in his heart, "It seems that whoever is destined is destined", Ning Weimin was already tempted by what he said.

But he still has to give it a moment, so he can't be too arrogant.

"You kid, don't come here to fight with me. You are smarter than a monkey. You don't know what you can do and what you can't do. If you want to do more injustice and seek death yourself, you can't rely on me. On the head. That’s retribution!”

Ning Weimin quickly said yes with a playful smile.

"Yes, yes, everything you said is right. But then again, our relationship is so good now. You are kind-hearted, so of course you hope that I will get better. But what if I don't end up well, even if it's my own fault? . Doesn’t it make you feel uncomfortable? I can’t cause trouble for you, right?”

Kang Shude was also completely impressed by Ning Weimin's shamelessness and shook his head again.

"Okay, stop being so glib. Since you are determined to learn, it would seem stingy for me to stop you. However, there are rules for passing on skills. Since you want to become a disciple, you must have a way to explain it."

"You said it, I'm listening."

"Once a teacher is always a father, do you understand this principle? I don't have any children. If I accept you as my apprentice, the rest of my life will be on your head. Not only do you have to take care of my food, drink, and diarrhea, but you also have to take care of my birth, old age, illness, and death. , let me take care of myself until I die. Well, how about it? Are you still a disciple or not?"

As he spoke, Kang Shude stared at Ning Weimin motionlessly, observing his reaction very carefully.

The old man has a backbone in his heart.

He knows that when it comes to supporting the elderly, a person's attitude can best describe his character.

Although saying it is one thing, doing it is another. It takes a long time to see whether a person can combine his words and deeds.

But if you don't even dare to respond, this in itself is already a negative signal.

So as long as Ning Weimin looked embarrassed and hesitant, it meant that this guy was not as reliable as he thought.

From now on, the trust in Ning Weimin will naturally be compromised.

Unexpectedly, the result made him particularly satisfied.

Not only did Ning Weimin not hesitate at all, he was extremely happy and kept shouting.

"Bye, of course. You look down on me too much, old man. It would be great if you were so straightforward earlier."

Kang Shude was afraid that he was young and inexperienced, so he simplified the question and added a few sentences.

"You should think about it carefully. This not only means serving tea and water, doing laundry and cooking, but maybe I won't be able to get off the kang in the future, and you will have to pee, boil medicine and stay up all night."

But Ning Weimin remains the same.

"Hey, what's the matter? Don't even say that you are my master. Even if you don't want to accept me as your apprentice, it's because of our fate. I can't watch you have no place to live in your later years. No problem, you should accept it. The share is all on me."

Then he took the initiative to kowtow to one.

"Master, my disciple is here to greet you."

There is no need to say that. Seeing Ning Weimin doing this, Kang Shude felt a little unbearable.

He quickly asked Ning Weimin to stand up, then he got excited and drank another full glass.

His face was red and radiant.

But I have to say something here, the old man is just too happy to be happy.

Because he was completely wishful thinking and mistakenly overestimated Ning Weimin.

From the old man's point of view, it was really not easy for Ning Weimin, who was neither a relative nor an acquaintance, to be such a filial son at his bedside.

But for Ning Weimin, it was completely different.

Does Ning Weimin think that he will definitely be rich in the future? What's the point of taking care of an old man?

The worst case scenario is to open a nursing home. While taking care of Kang Shude, you can also make money on the way.

This can only be said, it’s not the old man’s fault that he can’t see through it, it’s just that the world is too crazy.

Who made him meet a monster whose soul transcended the boundaries of time and space?
