"Boss, has Teacher Yu's new book "Wali" not been released today?"
In Dongzhong Bookstore, a boy hurried over and asked the boss.
"No." The boss replied without raising his head, and then added, "WALL-E is not on the shelves. Do you want to buy a copy of the new Rondeji?"
The boy shrank his neck and said humbly, "Our teacher has already ordered Rong Deji for us, so there is no need to buy any more."
The boss said with a smile, "Your Chinese teacher has decided for you, but the math has not yet been decided."
"..." The students fled.
During this period, students came to me every day asking if "WALL-E" was out.
There are relatively few channels for students to receive information. Although they have all heard that Yu Dong's new book "Wali" is coming out, there are all kinds of news about the time when the novel will be released.
Some say April, some say May, some say June and July, and basically all the surrounding months are mentioned.
The boss is asked this question many times every day and has to answer it many times, so he is a little impatient.
At Donghu Middle School, teachers have a relatively open attitude toward students reading extracurricular books. They will try their best to guide students in the types of extracurricular books they read and control the time students spend reading extracurricular books. Some classes even divide the time for students to read extracurricular books, such as
For the final information on evening self-study, you can read the extracurricular book.
After the students left, the boss shook his head slightly. The students were too concerned about Dong's new book. He was thinking about whether to put up a wooden sign at the door of the bookstore and write down the specific time of "WALL-E" on the wooden sign.
The students didn't know the specific release date of "Wall-E", but he knew it. After writing it out, it saved the students from asking questions every day. It bothered him that the students were wasting their time.
The more he thought about it, the more he thought it was a good idea. Later, he simply got up and walked to the warehouse. He remembered that there was a small blackboard in the warehouse. It used to be used for students to write books they wanted that were not available in the bookstore. Now they just took it out to write book announcements.
.
But as soon as he stood up, the phone on the counter rang.
"Jingle Bell--"
Li Congxin turned around to pick him up, "Who is it?"
"Boss, do you still remember me?"
Li Congxin didn't recognize who the other party was at all, so he said bluntly, "Sorry, I don't remember. Who are you?"
"Notre Dame, boss, do you still remember?"
When the other party mentioned Notre Dame de Paris, Li Congxin immediately remembered that a few days ago, a young man almost bought the rare copy of "Notre Dame de Paris" from him. In fact, the other party had already bought it, but later he bought it.
Sold it back.
Li Congxin laughed and said, "It's you, young man, how are you doing? You said you wanted to open a bookstore before, how is it now? Have you found a good place? Do you want me to give you some reference advice?"
"Haha, boss, have you forgotten that I can't open a bookstore?"
"I didn't forget, you said you didn't want to open a bookstore, but wanted to open a school... Then have you opened a school?" Li Congxin pouted, sat down behind the counter, and then picked up the tea cup to drink water. At that time, he felt that the other party was following
He was joking.
"It's done."
"Pfft..." The saliva in Li Congxin's mouth almost spat out, "What did you say?"
"I said it's done, and the school has already been set up."
Li Congxin rolled his eyes and said, "Young man, the phone bill is not cheap. You are still calling long distance, just to entertain me?"
Yu Dong laughed loudly on the other end of the phone, "Boss, you also know that phone bills are expensive, why should I spend this money to entertain you? Didn't you say last time that after I opened the school, you would give books to the students in my school?
, I’m running the school now, do you want to default on my debt?”
"I'll do it - okay, okay, if you really open a school, I will definitely give you these books. I will give you as many books as there are students. I will never break my promise."
Through the phone, Yu Dong could hear the sound of Li Congxin slapping his chest. He smiled and said, "Okay, brother, I'm just waiting for your words. We'll see you at Qiaoxi Primary School in Gaocheng City the day after tomorrow morning."
"
"Gaocheng City, how can I get by?"
"It doesn't matter, as long as you are willing to come, I will have someone pick you up."
Li Congxin became more and more confused as he talked. What on earth did this young man want to do?
Did you really open a school?
It's impossible. How can a school be so easy to run? Besides, it's only been a long time. Even if we start a school, we can't run it in such a short time.
But the problem is, the other party's serious look made Li Congxin a little confused.
Before Li Congxin could come out of his doubts, Yu Dong said again, "Okay, let's put it this way, we'll see you in Gaocheng the day after tomorrow."
Then, the phone hung up.
After hanging up the phone, Li Congxin sat behind the counter and thought for a while. In fact, he didn't realize it until the phone was hung up. When he said goodbye to the young man, he didn't tell him his phone number. So how did the young man do it?
Do you know the phone number?
Who did you ask?
Unable to think of a reason, Li Congxin simply shook his head and stopped thinking about it, and ran to the warehouse again to get the blackboard.
Until the next morning, when the bookstore just opened, a black Santana parked in front of the bookstore.
A young man in a black suit got out of the car, "Excuse me, is Mr. Li Congxin here?"
Li Congxin poked his head and looked outside, "Hello, I am Li Congxin. Do you have anything to do with me?"
The young man came over with a smile and handed an envelope to Li Congxin, "Mr. Li, here is the ticket from Chongqing to Jinling."
Li Congxin did not reach out to pick it up, but asked with a puzzled look, "A ticket from Chongqing to Jinling? Why are you giving me this? Who are you?"
"Mr. Li, didn't you say you want to go to Qiaoxi Primary School in Gaocheng? If you want to go to Gaocheng, you need to take a plane to Jinling first, and then take a bus to Gaocheng. There is no way to fly directly to Gaocheng from Yandu.
"The young man explained.
Li Congxin stared blankly at the young man in black in front of him, remembering the phone call he received yesterday afternoon.
He originally thought it was just a prank, but today someone actually sent him a plane ticket.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Looking at the envelope in front of him, Li Congxin fell into deep thought. This incident was too sudden and too bizarre for him. Reason told him that he might face the consequences of rushing to the appointment.
It was dangerous, but there was an urge deep in his heart to see if there really was such a school.
By some strange coincidence, Li Congxin took the envelope.
Seeing Li Congxin take the envelope, the young man laughed and said, "Mr. Li, would you like to prepare yourself? The plane leaves at 1:30 in the afternoon. Before that, we need to get to Yudu. This is the road from Yandu to Yudu
, quite time consuming.”
"Then I..."
Li Congxin looked at the bookstore, struggled for a while, and then found a piece of white paper from the drawer and wrote on it: The owner is happy and will be closed for the day.
After finishing writing, Li Congxin thought that just one day's rest might not be enough, so he added a horizontal line above the word, which became: The proprietor is happy, so he will be closed for two days.
After finishing the extra work, he felt that two days might not be enough, so he shouted to the owner of the bun shop next to him, "Lao Chen, I have something to do. I have to go out for two or three days. I wrote "break" on the door.
Two days, if I haven't opened the door the day after tomorrow morning, you can add a cross on top of these two."
Lao Chen glanced at Li Congxin and replied, "Ang."
Afterwards, Li Congxin went home again and explained some things to his family. He also told his family the license plate number of Santana who picked him up and the number he called yesterday to prevent any accidents.
After everything was done, Li Congxin followed the young man in black and got into the car.
After Li Cong got back on the plane, the suspicion that the other party had deceived him was completely gone from his mind, because no one would go to such trouble for someone like him.
The plane landed in Jinling, and someone from Jinling drove him to pick him up and took him to Gaocheng City to arrange for him to stay in a hotel.
Along the way, Li Congxin seemed to be dreaming, and the image of the young man who went to his bookstore before became more and more mysterious in his mind. He tried hard to recall the young man's appearance, but found that it was a very blurry face.
He didn't look carefully at the other person's face at that time.
Li Congxin rested one night in a hotel in Gaocheng City, and someone drove over to pick him up the next morning and took him to Qiaoxi Village.
Gaocheng is a very small and backward city. We drove out of the city not far away, and all we could see were farmland and dilapidated houses.
Qiaoxi Village is not that far from the city. The straight-line distance is only about ten kilometers. After a bumpy journey to Qiaoxi Village, Li Congxin heard the sound of gongs and drums in the distance.
The car finally stopped at the gate of Qiaoxi Primary School. Li Congxin did not get out of the car immediately, but looked at Qiaoxi Primary School through the car window. He was presbyopic, but he could see the scenery of the school from a distance.
This is a brand new school, and every part has a new atmosphere, which is completely different from the dilapidated scenery they have experienced along the way.
Is this the school run by that young man?
According to Li Congxin's visual inspection, if you want to build such a school, it will definitely not work within two or three years. In addition to the time to build a house, you also need to deal with various affairs. Of course, if you want to build such a school, you will need a lot of time.
It’s just time and money, and there are many things that ordinary people don’t have.
"Mr. Li, we're here." The driver said with a smile, "Our boss is waiting for you inside."
"Your boss..."
Li Congxin originally wanted to ask again who your boss is, but after thinking about it he still didn't ask. Since we are all here, it is better to ask in person.
After getting off the car, the sound of gongs and drums became louder.
The school was full of people, students running around and villagers joining in the fun.
In front of the teaching building, there was a temporary platform with a banner hanging on it. Just now, Li Congxin couldn't see clearly what was written on the banner in the car. Now he got off the car and after his vision improved, he finally saw
Understand the words above.
"Warmly welcome Mr. Yu Dong to Qiaoxi Primary School to host the opening ceremony"
Li Congxin couldn't believe it when he saw the word "Yu Dong". He squinted his eyes and read it again, confirming that it was Yu Dong.
Just when Li Congxin was thinking wildly, a tall and thin young man walked towards him. Before he could see the person clearly, he heard the person say with a smile, "Brother, you are fine.
."
"It's you." Li Congxin raised his eyebrows and couldn't help but tilt his head and stare at Yu Dong's face carefully.
This time, he finally saw Yu Dong's appearance clearly and took a long breath. He didn't expect that he didn't recognize Yu Dong when he came face to face with him before.
Just forget about these eyes.
Seeing Li Congxin's funny look of bending over and stretching out his head, Yu Dong said with a smile, "Brother, I brought you here today to ask you to count how many students there are in this school I run, so that you can send books to them later."
When it came to sending books, Li Congxin laughed awkwardly. He was laughing at himself for not knowing what he could do.
In fact, even if he was asked to deliver books to the students in this school, he would not be able to afford it. Generally, schools in rural areas only have one or two thousand students. Picking up some cheap books and giving them away only costs a few thousand yuan.
It's just money.
But the person standing in front of him was Yu Dong. Li Congxin didn't know exactly how many schools Yu Dong ran or funded, but he knew that he didn't have the strength to give a book to all these students.
Not to mention giving each person a book, even if he gave each person an eraser, he couldn't afford it.
…
In the end, Yu Dong did not ask Li Congxin to send books, but instead gave a batch of books to the children of Qiaoxi Primary School in Li Congxin's name. Of course, Li Congxin was not without help. He made a book list for Yu Dong, which was all
It is an extracurricular book that he thinks is suitable for primary school students.
Li Congxin seemed very excited during the whole process. He promised to come in person every year to deliver a batch of books to the students of Qiaoxi Primary School.
After the opening ceremony, Yu Dong invited Li Congxin to visit Jinling for two days.
In Jinling, Li Congxin experienced this vibrant ancient capital from all aspects.
In the past, I had only heard about how cultural and technological Jinling is now on TV and in newspapers. Only when he actually walked around this city did he truly feel everything he heard from elsewhere.
He envied Jinling for having a company like Deep Space. Because of the existence of Deep Space, Jinling has a large and ultra-progressive cultural center like the Deep Space Park. The most important thing is that tickets for such a cultural center open to everyone are free at all.
expensive.
Tickets for the Deep Space Park still maintain the original price, and a day's visit only costs 30 points.
After spending two days in Jinling, Li Congxin felt like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden. Everything she saw felt strange.
Li Congxin is not someone who has never seen the world. He has also been to big cities such as Yanjing and Shanghai. He even visited Jinling when he was young, but now Jinling has a temperament that is not found in other cities, and this
This temperament is obviously brought by the Deep Space Company.
The people here are gentle yet confident, humble yet enterprising.
Even after Li Congxin visited for two days, he was infected by the people here and became confident.
Four days had passed when Li Congxin returned to Donghu Town. He went to the bookstore that day and saw the piece of paper taped to the door. He almost laughed out loud because the words on the paper had changed to:
