Chapter 3 Changed the world
His son's pretentious and mysterious attitude left his father Jin Shi with no choice. After taking a few sips of wine, he had to compromise:
"Okay, okay, I'll do it for you! Then don't bother your Uncle Da Biao. I'll let Yan Dapao handle it, and I'll give you the position of executive deputy general manager..."
It was just a third-level football club, not much better than a grassroots team, with a bunch of managers and presidents, and I don't know where the bad problem was. Jin Shang, who was resentful in his heart, did not find fault anymore and acquiesced to his father's arrangement.
After a long absence in the father-son game, the two ate, drank, and chatted for a long time. When it was already dark outside, Lao Jin felt drunk and his tongue was a little uneasy.
"That's it. Your father and I don't have much ability, so I can only help you save some face and pave the way for you. While the old immortal is still breathing, I can still show off and look familiar. By the way, I have something for you.
…”
After almost eating, Jinshi dragged his son to the attic staggeringly, pointed at a pair of things randomly placed on the shelf and said,
"Pick whatever you want, at least get one, it's okay to get more..."
"Whenever you're short of money, you just sell one for wine money, right?"
Growing up, Xiao Jin is not interested in antiques at all. In contrast, he prefers high-tech products that can make daily life better.
Although he couldn't see anything famous, Jin Shang also understood that every item here could be sold for a good price at auction. If there weren't so many treasures, it would be impossible for his father to enjoy the leisurely life with his skills.
I have been wasting my life for so many years.
"Here, the old man said you can't just sell it. I...and your cheap stuff that grandpa left before his death are also very popular. If you sell it casually, it will last for a long time."
"Master Jin is really unlucky to have a stepson like you."
Jin Shang can no longer remember whether he has seen the cheap grandfather who has been dead for more than ten years, but he has heard a lot about the grievances and hatreds of the older generation. In the turbulent era when people are panicking, the relationship between people
He was also too fragile to be attacked, so many bad relationships were born.
As he spoke and glanced around, Jin Shang picked up a broom-shaped ornament made of gold and jade silk strands from the shelf. It was small and exquisite, half as big as a palm, and felt warm to the touch, very pleasing to the eye.
"Very interesting, what is it for?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Jin Shang, who still had a smile on his face, saw that the golden broom in his hand was getting hotter and hotter, and in an instant it turned into a stream of light and went straight to his forehead.
Caught off guard, Jin Shang's eyes blurred, as if he had entered a colorful and weird world, surrounded by strange shining stardust, pouring into his body like a dragon sucking water.
I don't know how long it took before Jin Shang came back to his senses, and a piece of information suddenly appeared in his mind.
"If you don't sweep one house, how can you sweep the world?"
Jin Shang, who spent a few seconds to calm down, found that he was standing still and the golden jade broom in his hand was still the same. Just when he was wondering if he had hallucinated just now, he saw his father Jin Shi looking at him in shock.
Own.
"Why, there are flowers on my face?"
"you do not know?"
"Should I know?"
"You stand here and don't move around. I'll call the old man first."
As he spoke, Jin Shi took out his cell phone and dialed a very private number. After more than ten seconds, the call was connected.
"What's the matter?"
"It's me, grandpa, your most filial and obedient grandson - Jin Shi, do you remember?"
"What's the matter?"
"It's not a big deal. It's just that my precocious monster son is eighteen years old this year and is about to graduate with a master's degree. So I will follow your instructions and give him a coming-of-age gift, and then..."
Without waiting for Jin Shi to elaborate, the other person immediately ordered:
"You...bring him here, immediately."
"It's already dark, so I won't disturb your rest. Can we go back tomorrow morning?"
From the west of the city to the east of the city, and after a while, it was late at night. Jintoki, who had drunk a lot not long ago, was too lazy to travel long distances at this time to meet that old guy with such scary rules.
"immediately."
"Then, wait until I finish eating, rest for a while, and then go sober up."
"immediately."
"knew."
Pretending to be submissive, he hung up the phone impatiently.
"He just knows how to push and push, but he doesn't care about whether others can bear it or not. He deserves to be alone in his old age and have no children or grandchildren to see him."
After drinking a glass of water to moisten his throat, Jin Shi dragged Jin Shang, who was confused, and asked Lao Bian to drive east. Along the way, neither father nor son was interested in talking.
Nearly an hour and a half later, the father and son arrived in a quaint mansion that was as solemn as a palace and not like an ordinary home. They met the old man who gave the order, Jin Shi's grandfather, and Jin Shang's great-grandfather whom he had not seen for a long time.
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Jin Shi explained in detail what had just happened, especially the change that occurred after Jin Shang touched the gold and jade broom ornament, and a silver-white brilliance appeared on his body, which complemented the "coming of age gift" gift.
After that, there was a long silence.
After sitting on the chair for a long time, the majestic old man who never showed any signs of fatigue murmured to himself:
"I'm not dead yet, so I can't understand why you slipped through the cracks. But why did you show up decades later?"
Then, he shook his head with a self-deprecating look and looked in the direction of Kintoki,
"You... stood aside and shut up when I wasn't asked to speak. No matter what you heard, it rotted in your stomach."
Jin Shi took a few steps back, letting Jin Shang and the old man look at each other.
"Your...what did it say to you?"
Seeing Jin Shang's solemn expression as if he had been poked into the center of things, the old man laughed heartily and pointed at the bridge of his nose with his finger.
"Mine is, 'A snake rides on the mist, but it will eventually become ashes; if you nourish yourself with happiness, you will live forever.' Isn't it very vivid? When I was young, I also imagined that I was a BMW horse that could gallop thousands of miles.
Realize your ambition. Now I can only be glad that I woke up early, don’t go against the will, and start health care as soon as possible, so that I can have the opportunity to sit back and watch the storm rise..."
Watch him build Zhulou, watch him entertain guests...
"You...too?"
Not long ago, I thought I was the unique Jin Shang, but then I realized that the so-called "golden finger" was actually a family inheritance, and my hot heart suddenly cooled down.
"Every child who is lucky enough to be favored will have a period of time when he thinks that he is destined to be his destiny. In fact, it is almost the same..."
The old man changed his serious and indifferent attitude and replied kindly,
"Although I don't know if this is God's favor for our Huang family, but it may be of some benefit and help. Including me, our ancestors in the past generations have received different 'destiny', so we don't really understand its reality. We are just confused.
Use it properly, and slowly explore it based on the oral descriptions of predecessors. It seems that you are still not able to accept it. Do you want me to give you a few more examples to support it? "
"No, no, no, I believe it."
Jin Shang shook his head slightly. The old man in front of him was Huang Zhengkuo, Jin Shang's great-grandfather. He was born one year earlier than the last emperor. After a few twists and turns, he could still reach the imperial family.
The Huang family was not originally a native of the capital, but was originally from Jiangxia. The descendants of the past generations had a unified standard for naming. They basically followed the order of "ancestral charter, integrity and uprightness, and Qi Zhiping". Huang Zhengkuo's eldest son Huang Xiumin, who has died long ago, is
Jin Shi's father and Jin Shang's grandfather.
As for why Jin Shang and his son were named Jin instead of Huang during the Jin Dynasty, that is another very interesting story.
“If you don’t clean one house, how can you lose the world?”
After hearing the information in Jin Shang's mind, the relatively energetic old man couldn't help laughing:
"That's it, that's it! Family, country, and world, now it's the other way around, world, country, family. Our old Huang family almost shed all our blood for the country, but we didn't lose much benefit. Although we didn't expect anything extravagantly, we saved
Despite the thought of destroying the family and serving the country, even before death, I still felt resentful..."
From ancient times to the present, the relationship between country and family has been changing with the world.
During the Eastern Han Dynasty, wealthy and powerful families spread all over the world, and local governments began to regard counties as their country and delineate territories for self-defense.
The ancestor of Chen Fan, a native of Pingyu in Runan, was the governor of Henan. When he was young, he lived alone in a house with a very messy courtyard. His father's friend Xue Qin came to visit him and said to him: "Young man, why don't you tidy up the room to welcome the guests?"
?”
Chen Fan said: "When a man lives his life, he should take it as his own responsibility to eliminate disasters in the world. Why should he care about a house?"
Because of this incident, Xue Qin believed that he had the ambition to clarify the world, had his own opinions, and had a praising and affirmative attitude.
By the Qing Dynasty, a similar joke became "If you can't govern one room, how can you govern the world?", which translates to "You can't even govern a house, how can you govern the country?"
There was a gap of nearly two thousand years, and the opinions and tendencies were very different.
"It's hard to take care of everyone, it's hard to leave a small family, and everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. Those rights and wrongs are all in the past."
Facing his great-grandfather's slightly wild smile, Jin Shang persuaded him with good words.
In this world, because the last dynasty was headed by Han people, the modern history is much better than the previous life of Jin Shang.
The "sick man of West Asia" on the other side of the continent has collapsed and is unable to recover; the Austro-Hungarian Empire, which dominates central and southern Europe, is in pieces and will never be reassembled; North Germany tried to break through the barrier twice, but failed and lost its blood; inherited
As a legacy of the Golden Horde, the Slavs who falsely claimed Rome also turned against each other after they separated.
