Chapter fifty-eight
"I have a suggestion, you can listen to it and see if it's OK." Li Kai looked around the three people in the room, then stared at Li Yan and said, "First of all, things including these gold bars cannot be allowed to let anyone know their existence until we determine their accurate value. I mean any relatives and friends except the four of us, and of course my grandpa and grandma, especially my grandma and dad, what do you think."
Li Yan understood what Li Kai meant. His suggestion was nothing more than a kind of protest and fear caused by Mrs. Li's unblocking exploitation of her family over the years. In fact, she was also very fucked, but it was her own mother. She was a little emotional in her heart, and she could never do anything out of the ordinary, or even say excessive things. After decades of filial piety education, she was already numb. What's more, it's not just me who is numb, but most people who can't get out of this circle. However, these things are "created out of nothing", so of course she can't let her know.
"I agree, except for the four of us, no one will know for the time being." Li Yan nodded, and Liu Fengzhi and Chang Dalong also nodded.
"Secondly, you need to find a safe place to keep these things properly. You can't keep them at home. I'm not worried about being stolen. Thieves are not that rampant now. I'm afraid of you, especially my mother, who is worried all day long and has a heart attack."
Liu Fengzhi reached out and slapped Li Kai in the arm, "Have you never seen the world in your mother?"
Li Kai grinned his arms in a pretentious pain, and continued, "I heard that there is a safe rental business in the bank. This is reliable. Dad, you go rent one tomorrow and put everything in it. We will feel at ease if you spend a few dollars a month. I'm not sure if the branch has this business, but the branch must have it."
"Aren't branches? branches? Are they all savings banks?" Li Yan asked in confusion.
"I would like to take ICBC as an example. Simply put, ICBC has its headquarters in Kyoto, each province has a provincial branch, each city has a city branch, each city has multiple branches and savings outlets, that is, savings stations. The highest level of ICBC in Ancheng is Ancheng Branch."
"Oh, it's so complicated, I heard it again for the first time." Li Yan nodded.
"That's simple, just go to the ICBC Ancheng Branch, the three-story small red building on Dongfeng Road, which is close to our home."
"Yeah, I know that place."
"The third step is to find a trustworthy person and give the things an authoritative appraisal. I think Uncle Han from the Magic City can be selected. Uncle Han will visit Ancheng every October. I think he will come this year. At that time, Uncle Han will take the things to the Magic City for appraisal. He has a wide range of social circles and knows many professionals."
Li Yan and Liu Fengzhi looked at each other,
"Not?"
"It's gone, that's all I can think of now."
"Then do it like this, don't wait for tomorrow. I'll go to the bank now."
When Li Kai saw that the watch was only over 10 minutes, he nodded in agreement. Several people began to pack the things under the bed lightly, and Li Yan took his ID card and went out.
After Li Yan left, it was basically impossible for Liu Fengzhi to sleep and rest. She sat there in a daze, smiled inexplicably, and then carried Li Kai or Chang Dalong over to ravage her head. Even if Li Kai turned on the TV, it would not interfere with her excited emotions.
Two hours later, Li Yan came back in a hurry.
"How is it? Are there any cabinets to rent?" Liu Fengzhi asked impatiently when she saw Li Yan.
"Yes, I'm afraid I'll be delayed, so I rented two first."
"Two! How much does that cost?"
"The biggest one I want is 120 yuan a year and 240 yuan two."
"So expensive! Why don't they rob it?" Liu Fengzhi almost jumped up.
"Shh, a little bit of a sound. Small trumpets are cheap, but small trumpets can't be placed in jars and scrolls."
"Then you can ask for a large size...a medium and large size."
"Okay, don't complain. I'm in a hurry to come back. How could I think so thoroughly? It's only twenty yuan a year. I'll rent it and use it quickly. Otherwise, I'm afraid you won't be able to do the night shift tonight."
"Okay, just rent it." Li Fengzhi still felt distressed.
"Okay, this is all a small amount of money. These things are worth millions, and you are still missing? Dad, are you going to save it now?"
"Yes, go now, so as not to have more dreams."
"What are you waiting for? Hurry up." As he said that, Li Kai lay down under the bed and poured out something.
There were two bicycles, Li Yan and his wife, and Li Kai and Chang Dalong.
For transportation safety, Li Yan freed up a thick cardboard box from the hut, put it in a blue and white can wrapped in a towel, and put the cardboard box into a travel bag. The three boxes were also packed in three bags respectively.
So the four people carried four bags and rode two bicycles, galloping on the road in panic.
The bank stipulates that only two people can enter the vault at a time, and Li Kai and Chang Dalong can only stay outside to guard the bicycle. Li Kai took the opportunity to ask about the bank's gold purchase price, which is 86 yuan per gram, which means that the box of gold bars is worth nearly 135,000 yuan. In this era when tens of thousands of yuan was still a household, this was definitely a huge sum of money.
More than half an hour later, Li Yan and his wife came out. Liu Fengzhi looked a little weak in her legs and feet and was wandering when walking.
That night, Liu Fengzhi's nap before the night shift was temporarily cancelled, and Li Yan was also requisitioned. The couple entered the door and lay on the bed and muttered until half past ten. Then Liu Fengzhi ate two fried eggs in luxury, and promised the two of them that they would eat stewed beef pancakes tomorrow night, and they would go to work with a tweed coat the day after tomorrow.
Li Yan was not at ease, so he could only send his wife to the factory. This delivery must be delivered to the factory.
Brother Li Kai looked at his mother's magical operation, and first he was confused, but then he suddenly realized that Li Kai was rolling on the bed with a smile, and almost fell off the upper bunk.
In the next few days, my home, school, and factory were all very calm, and everything was as usual.
After Li Kai corrected the homemade exercise book for Xue Yan, the accuracy rate reached 95%. It was very good. However, before Xue Yan could proudly brag about herself, Li Kai stuffed her a comprehensive exercise book for mathematics, physics and chemistry. Xue Yan was so angry that even though Li Kai declared that it would be enough to complete the exercise book within a month, he would only do three or four questions a day. However, Xue Yan had experienced a "nightmare" and knew the difficulty of these questions. Sometimes she might not be able to answer the three or four questions in an hour, so she vowed to break off her relationship with Li Kai in stages, but just one day later, she was broken by a "purple ice cream" by Li Kai.
Jona also received the "Purple Ice Cream". Because the woolen mill had goods sent to the Magic City, the driver brought back some local specialty pastries to Qiao Xiangdong. These things naturally fell into Jona's hands. Li Kai took a box of "crab shell yellow" and a box of "Qianbao Square Cake" with great affection, and rewarded a piece of "Purple Ice Cream".
The remaining "kids" were miserable. Each of them only got ten different math, physics and chemistry exercises, and asked to copy the questions from each other and compile them into books, and complete them independently within one month. Although the difficulty of the questions was not as difficult as Xue Yan's exercise books, Jonah, An Jianjun and Yuan Tiezhu still wailed in pain.
Li Kai wants to have a systematic understanding of everyone's learning situation so that he can organize his learning in a targeted manner.
At home, Li Kai was completely let go. Li Yan and his wife further relaxed their supervision of him and even gave money to the two guys at every turn. Although it was only three or two dollars each time, for junior high school students in 1990, this was already the treatment of a "rich second generation".
Chang Dalong saved all his money, and he didn't want to spend a penny on himself. Now he is in his early 300s. If Li Kai hadn't often "fraudulent consumption" on him, he would have saved more.
On Friday, Jona invited Li Kai to her house for dinner on behalf of her parents, but Li Kai politely declined. It has been almost a week since he was back, and Li Kai was always thinking about Li Qianjin. It was finally time for the weekend and he would definitely go back to Banshantun.
Jona privately asked Chang Dalong about their situation in Kaoshantun, but when she heard this, she was very interested. She would swear to her father when she got home at night, and insisted on going back to her hometown with Li Kai and the others on the weekend, and asked his father to find a car to take them there.
Qiao Xiangdong himself is a "female-loving demon". He loves his daughter and has his own requirements. Besides, he has to find a car to pick him up and drop him off. It is not difficult for him, the chief of the storage and transportation department. Moreover, he is also very relieved to be with Li Kai, who has the best character and learns from his character. Naturally, he agreed immediately.
As a result, when Jona went to school to show off to her good friends the next day, it attracted everyone's anger and asked to go together. Jona was unable to beat more than twenty hands with her fists, so she had to surrender. She went home at noon and looked at Qiao Xiangdong with another "whip". As a result, the car turned into a van. After a lot of people, she still couldn't hold it, so she could only use the small passenger car in the factory.
However, Li Kai went back differently with everyone. He really missed his grandfather, so he took the bus first after school in the afternoon, leaving Chang Dalong to lead the way the next day.
When Li Kai arrived, the old man had just returned from Hu Kui's house. Hu Kui spent a lot of money on water in the past few years, and it took nearly 3,000 yuan to build a house. So although he was very pleading guilty, it was difficult to return the stolen goods. Li Qianjin gave 1,700 yuan from the money he had put in the box and gave it to him.
"Grandpa--" Li Kai, who had run through the entrance of the village, shouted loudly as soon as he arrived in front of the yard.
"Oh." Li Qianjin just entered the house and sat down. Hearing the shouts, he stood up happily.
Before he finished speaking, Li Kai entered the door panting, and did not put down his schoolbag. He hugged Li Qianjin, "Grandpa, I miss you, are you okay?"
"Okay, grandpa misses you too." Li Qianjin's nose was a little sore, and he cursed himself in his heart, why did he become less promising as he grows older and wanted to keep "cat pee" at any time.
Li Kai helped Li Qianjin sit down, and the grandfather and grandson began to talk about family matters.
"Why didn't the silly boy come?" Li Qianjin waited for a while but couldn't see Chang Dalong.
"He will come tomorrow. He will go back and brag to his classmates, saying that we will accompany the mountains and villages to the beautiful land, beautiful mountains and rivers, and the birds and flowers are fragrant. As a result, we are jealous and insist on coming and seeing them. He will lead the way tomorrow. I can't wait, I miss my grandfather, so I come here first."
"You bad boy, you are so honest, how could you brag to others? You must have bragged yourself and framed it to the fool boy." Li Qianjin smiled and bent his fingers and knocked Li Kai's head.
Li Kai rubbed his head and smiled "hehe" as if he was embarrassed.
"Come on, come on, I have some days left uninterested here, welcome them. Go and see what New Year's goods there are in the western-style room. If you don't have enough, please replenish them quickly. Lunch tomorrow will be more generous. Don't be stingy. Grandpa will give you money to buy it."
"No need for your money, I have it here. I'll go to the West Pairing Room first to have a look. Grandpa, try this," Li Kai took out the "crab shell yellow" and "Qibao Fangcake" from his schoolbag. "Magic City special snacks, you can eat a little bit, don't eat too much, keep it and eat it slowly."
"Yeah..." The smile on Li Qianjin's face became even stronger.
The next day, before nine o'clock, the large army entered the village in a small bus. Chang Dalong brought thirteen people. Except for Liu Huichang and Wang Dazhuang, the rest of the people had never experienced this kind of pastoral life, so they were extremely excited, and the yard was very lively.
The girls are still polite. Jona brought Jinling osmanthus cake to the old man, Xue Yan brought two refrigerated coastal mackerels, and three other girls also brought some fruits and pastries. Li Kai also told Li Qianjin that the "crab shell yellow" and "Qibao square cake" they ate yesterday were also given by Jona. The old man expressed his gratitude happily, making Jona so beautiful.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the boys quickly asked for a major cleaning and clean the yard. However, Li Qianjin's yard was cleaned every day, and there was basically nothing to do.
So Li Kai asked Chang Dalong to take everyone to play in the mountains and specially found Li Huai. Li Huai is professional in this regard, and his age is similar to everyone.
Li Kui helped Li Kai and started preparing lunch. Because there were too many people, he had to prepare in advance. However, after a while, Jona and Xue Yan came back together. Seeing Li Kai busy, they took the initiative to help. But the two beautiful girls were both babies at home, and they usually didn't touch the spring water. They were "lazy, lazy, arrogant, and happy to be successful", so they not only couldn't help, but also messed up Li Kai's "work plan".
Li Kai could only bow and bow, and even compensate Li Ku, and then he coaxed these two "little ancestors" to the mountain to play.
"These two girls like you." Li Kai, who was busy, turned around and saw Li Qianjin standing behind him at some point.
