Chapter 1 When people are alive, they often cannot help themselves (modification)
District X, Dongdu City, a dilapidated house of more than 70 square meters.
The mottled walls and peeling paint on the doors and windows reveal a trace of decay.
It was just the word "demolished" on the wall, but it immediately gave this dilapidated house an air of class, making passers-by look at it with envy.
At the door of the house, a dozen tall and thick men gathered together, and unpleasant curses spewed out from their mouths from time to time.
"Damn it, Tang Laowu, this grandson, owes me half a million yuan. He can just walk away, but when will the money be repaid!"
"That's right, we are all neighbors, you He is also a sensible child...
Everyone lives on this little money, father. You don’t need to talk too much about debt repayment, right?”
“We don’t want to push it so hard, but we are all members of the same family, and it’s not easy to make some money, right?”
“Fuck, stop talking nonsense, if you don’t pay me today, your house will be ransacked!”
Some people offer good words to persuade others, while others use harsh words to say something bad. They all have only one purpose.
Ask money.
The grumpy black-faced man roared, but after taking a look at the bare-walled house, he cursed unfavorably: "Damn, this place is broken, I'm afraid the rats will starve to death." .
Your dad ran away quickly, but he tricked these brothers and friends. He is so damn wicked!"
Everyone was deeply touched when they heard this, and they couldn't help but nodded at the same time, with expressions on their faces! Regret for the past.
Surrounded was a young man with fine features, who was smiling helplessly at everyone, but his heart was full of bitterness.
"Uncles, uncles and brothers, listen to me, okay?"
Tang Zhen glanced at everyone and saw that everyone was looking at him, then he raised his voice and continued: "You guys I also know the difficulties. After all, no one’s money is blown by the strong wind. Yes, I have to shed my sweat to save some money.
Now that something has happened, let’s find a way to solve it.
How much is this house worth, but it’s a matter of demolition. After several years of delay, I still can’t figure it out for a while.
It’s too much of a loss to sell it now, and I can’t possibly sell it!
But there is always a solution to everything. Do you think this will work?
I will repay five thousand a month. As for who should be repaid first, please discuss it yourself!
Although the money is not much, I have to live frugally. I can't afford even one more cent!
But I’m going to say it first. You can’t make trouble in my house again. If you really push me, I will leave. Then we will see who suffers the consequences! ”
Tang Zhen stared at these people coldly with a determined expression on his face.
The solution has been proposed. You can decide whether it works or not. If you are still not satisfied, go to the person who really lent you the money.
Not everyone agreed with Tang Zhen's method. They immediately roared with a pale face, rolled up their arms and sleeves as if to fight, and their eyes widened.
"Stop talking nonsense, I want a house, go through the formalities for me right away!"
"Fuck, why should I give you a house? I still want it!"
"How much money do you owe me, how much money do you owe me, why are you so shameless?"
Well, the person who wanted the money started fighting again.
......
After noisy and tossing all morning, Tang Zhen finally sent away these debt collectors, including a few guys who insisted on demolishing their houses.
The debt collectors have no choice. Those old people who owe money are uncles. If they really scare people away, they will lose everything.
With someone like Tang Zhen here, at least every few months, it is possible to recover several thousand yuan.
After everyone left, Tang Zhen cleaned up the cigarette butts and garbage on the floor, then looked at the empty room and sighed, a trace of sadness flashed across his young face. Tang Zhen was an orphan who was adopted when he was very young. The person who adopted him was his father's brother.
The family gave birth to a daughter in the second year after adopting him, and Tang Zhen also had a younger sister.
Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. The adoptive mother passed away suddenly, and the adoptive father began to spend the day, drink and stay up all night, and got into the bad habit of gambling.
The adoptive father is shameless, selfish and only thinks about himself, and his family ties are as thin as paper.
It is completely normal to not go home for a year and a half.
The brother and sister depended on each other, grew up hungry and lived a very poor life.
Youdao is a person whose temperament is hard to change. His adoptive father was restrained when he was young, but now he is living more and more freely.
Being a parent does not necessarily mean you will have a sense of responsibility. In some people's world, selfishness can only tolerate themselves.
A year ago, my adoptive father made a huge sum of money by cheating here and there, and went away to a foreign country with a married woman to live a happy life.
The creditors who came after hearing the news naturally focused on Tang Zhen. They came to his house from time to time for gatherings and cursed, and each time they had to spend a long time before leaving.
Tang Zhen hated his adoptive father, and sometimes he really wanted to run away. Where could he go without being able to survive?
But whenever this happened, he would think of his sister and eventually give up this plan.
The days when the two of them depended on each other were the most unforgettable memories in his heart. He really regarded his sister as a close relative.
Sometimes Tang Zhen hates himself very much. Why is he so worthless and unable to create a better living environment for his sister?
He couldn't even imagine the scene where his creditors would harass his sister after they couldn't find him.
For these reasons, Tang Zhen silently endured fatigue and abuse, struggling to survive in the cracks of the city.
In the final analysis, it is just for the persistence in my heart.
Sighing, he took out his phone from his pocket and looked at the time.
After being delayed for so long and feeling a little unwell, I'm afraid I won't be able to go out today.
After Tang Zhen threw the phone on the bedside, he reached for it a few times and took out the nylon woven bag stuffed under the bed.
After opening the bag, he took out a transparent bead the size of an egg and started playing with it.
This thing has some origins. His adoptive father bought it from a tomb robber. It is said to be a real old thing.
Birds of a feather flock together, and people flock together. Most of the people my adoptive father befriends are not serious.
Antiques have become very popular in recent years. After watching TV a few times, my adoptive father also wanted to get rich overnight and bought these things from his fair-weather friends.
It is said that they came from an ancient tomb of unknown age. Three things were unearthed at that time, which seemed to be a dagger and a piece of pottery, and the other thing was this thing in Tang Zhen's hand.
Tang Zhen's adoptive father was arrogant and concluded that the bead was a treasure, so he spent 10,000 yuan to buy it.
As a result, I found someone to identify it, and it turned out to be nothing.
After Tang Zhen's adoptive father was depressed for a few days, he threw the "glass ball" under the bed, and later put it away while Tang Zhen was cleaning.
After playing with the 'glass ball' in his hand for a few times, he put it and his phone on the table, and Tang Zhen got up to prepare lunch.
Holding a bowl of instant noodles in his right hand and half a bag of pickled mustard in his left hand, Tang Zhen read a novel while eating.
After finishing lunch, Tang Zhen put his mobile phone on the table and turned to the kitchen.
The moment he turned around, the "glass" beads flew out with a faint light, wrapping the phone around, lasting for a few seconds and then disappearing.
