rebirth from small pockets

Chapter 433 Father and Son

We had lunch at the station’s canteen at noon that day.

Although this station is still in use, the main force is no longer stationed here.

However, this is still the residence of Hu’s unit during National Day. The leader of Hu’s regiment has no face, well, he doesn’t really have much face.

Because at noon on the Tiger National Day, less than half an hour after being served to the wine table, I was instantly drunk.

This is actually a rare phenomenon. Although in 1999, the prohibition on alcohol in the military was not as strict as it was later, as a chief officer, Hu Guoqing would not be able to get himself so drunk during the National Day.

Getting drunk so fast!

Of course ~ Tiger National Day was not the only one who got drunk, Chen Guofu was also drunk.

Hmm~ This is actually quite normal, because as soon as the two people came to the wine table, they each drank three tea jars of high-strength liquor.

This is more than two kilograms of liquor~ and he drank it in such a hurry. Being drunk is naturally a normal thing.

Chen Li also encountered such a thing in his previous life. At that time, Chen Li felt quite confused.

But now, he doesn't care anymore!

Anyway, Tiger had already warned his orderly on National Day. After Chen Li sent his old man to the barracks prepared in advance to rest, he followed the orderly to the shooting range!

In his previous life, because Chen Li did not go to college, when he and his father came to the military camp to visit Tiger for National Day, it was his first exposure to firearms.

So Chen Li was very excited that time, but to be honest, his performance was very awkward.

But this is normal, after all, it’s our first contact~!

But to be honest this time, Chen Li really didn't have much interest in the shooting range. He was almost tired of playing in the system space.

But Hu Guoqing didn't know this. In his eyes, how could a boy not like firearms?

Not to mention that Chen Li is still the child of the old squad leader, so he should be more interested in firearms.

So before getting drunk, Tiger National Day made arrangements in advance.

It's just that Hu Guoqing didn't know that Chen Li had a system, and in the system space, Chen Li didn't play much anymore.

He didn't even upgrade the sub-professional career of reservist, not because he couldn't bear the intermediate skill book, but because it was unnecessary.

After upgrading, professional soldiers will provide more extremely professional military skills, but now it is impossible for Chen Li to join the army.

For Chen Li, an "ordinary person", the secondary profession of reserve soldier is basically enough.

To be honest~ Even for this reservist, if Chen Lizhen "graduated" from it, his military quality would actually be far superior to that of ordinary soldiers.

At least when it comes to firearms, let alone ordinary soldiers, even many professional soldiers may not be as good as Chen Li.

After all, Chen Li does not need to consider the cost when playing with firearms, all expenses are free.

In this regard, no soldier in the military can compare with him.

So~ when the current Chen Li entered the shooting range, he immediately shocked the orderly who brought him here.

QBZ95 type, 100-meter target, twenty bullets hit 197 rings.

This is because Chen Li's first two shots were one with 8 rings and the other with 9 rings, and in the next eighteen shots, Chen Li shot with 10 rings.

With this score, it basically reaches the score of a sharpshooter in the army.

"Practice?"

The orderly knew that Chen Li's father was a veteran, so although he was a little surprised by Chen Li's results, it was not that surprising.

After all, coming from a military family, it is actually easier to have access to these things than ordinary people.

Especially since this was still 1999, it only took a few years to ban the ownership of firearms on a large scale in China.

"I haven't practiced it specifically. I've fought it a few times during military training."

Chen Li casually replied that it was not that he was deliberately showing off, but that it was naturally impossible for him to say anything about the system space.

And leaving aside the system space, it is naturally impossible for Chen Li to come into contact with firearms.

"Oh~!"

The orderly nodded, but he didn't think so. He felt that Chen Li just didn't want to admit it.

After all, one shot and two shots, and it might be said that it was luck. These ten rounds were repeated eighteen times in a row. Even if Chen Li had never practiced before, he would not believe it even if he was beaten to death.

However, this is actually a cognitive error of this orderly. You must know that many sharpshooters in history have actually not received much professional shooting training.

Especially some of the sharpshooters in the early military, let alone training, even the bullets they received on the battlefield were very limited.

Chen Li's score seems very impressive, but to be honest, there is actually a lot of merit in this score.

Because shooting training is to exercise military literacy, the real effect still needs to be experienced in actual application.

But if Chen Li stays there, he can achieve very good results, but if you let him participate in practical applications, it will be a mess.

So if you really have to do the math~ In fact, the most suitable place for Chen Li is not in the military, but on the shooting field.

In fact, Chen Li rarely plays with firearms in the system space now.

After the initial excitement, Chen Li's enthusiasm for these things had already dropped a lot.

Nowadays, besides exercising in the system space every day, Chen Li spends most of his time fishing, and only occasionally plays.

There is no way~ The possibility that this skill can be used in reality is too small. After the enthusiasm is exhausted, I will naturally lose interest.

After playing at the shooting range for a while, Chen Li went back to the barracks to rest, but in fact he went fishing in the system space.

It wasn't until after four o'clock in the afternoon that Chen Li's father woke up, but the alcoholism had not completely passed.

Originally, Tiger National Day planned to keep Chen Li and his son for one night, but Chen Guofu knew that Tiger National Day was very busy, so he refused.

He came here this time just because he wanted to go back to where he was stationed more than 20 years ago and have a look.

After seeing it, the unwillingness in my heart became a little less.

Yes ~ I am indeed unwilling. After all, Chen Guofu was not demobilized normally at that time. This kind of "accident" can almost be regarded as an obsession.

The best way to solve his obsession is to let Chen Guofu take a look at the place where his obsession rests.

Although it can't be completely solved, it will definitely be much better.

So on the way back, Chen Guofu did not rest because of his drunkenness, but was very excited to chat with his son.

It can be seen that Chen Guofu has indeed put down some things now, and he looks extremely relaxed.

This residency trip is almost ten years earlier than the previous one.

So Chen Li is actually quite happy, because the transformation of his old man in his previous life actually started after his first trip to Western Xinjiang.

"Huh~ don't tell your mother about how drunk you were at noon today!"

The two father and son were talking and laughing all the way. When they were approaching the place, Chen Guofu suddenly calmed down the expression on his face and changed into a serious look.

"Ahem~ Dad, this matter is not easy to handle!"

"My mother told me before I came here to keep an eye on you and not let you get drunk."

"It turned out to be a good thing. You came to the table and toasted with Uncle Tiger with a teapot. You got yourself drunk after a while, and I didn't even have time to persuade you."

"This is not easy to handle!"

Chen Li slowed down the car and looked at his old man narrowly.

At this moment, the serious expression on Chen Guofu's face had disappeared, and was replaced by a bitter look.

There was no way~ More than twenty years ago, when Chen Guofu first returned to the local area, he was actually also a good drinker.

After all, it came from the army, so everyone subconsciously thought it was quite drinkable.

When he was young, Chen Guofu was not a coward, so at that time, he often appeared at the banquets hosted by the leaders at the grain station.

At that time, the grain station was definitely considered a hot spot, so Chen Guofu spent a lot of time drinking and got drunk a lot.

Even if you get married later, you will often get drunk.

For this reason, Wang Dongmei often quarreled with Chen Guofu over this matter.

At the most serious point, the two even had a dispute and wanted to divorce.

Later, it was Chen Guofu who made the "concession". Who could make him reluctant to let go of his wife?

Hmm~ This is definitely not Chen Guofu being afraid of his wife!

Of course ~ this is Chen Guofu’s perception.

In Chen Li's eyes, his old man's status in the family has never been as high as his mother's.

Every time he drinks, what Chen Guofu thinks is a quarrel is actually Ms. Wang's unilateral scolding (scolding) at him.

Even when it came to divorce, Ms. Wang used divorce as an excuse to unilaterally threaten Chen Guofu.

It was also that time that Ms. Wang threatened to divorce him if he got drunk again, which made Chen Guofu change his drunken habit.

Although I occasionally make mistakes once or twice, the situation is much better than before.

This situation has lasted for a long time, and now Chen Guofu basically does not dare to provoke his wife on the issue of drinking.

Normally, Wang Dongmei would not object to drinking some wine, but if she drank too much, she would be prepared to endure Ms. Wang's continuous chanting of magic spells for a long time.

"Hmph~!"

"Tell me~ Why are you willing to help?"

Chen Guofu also turned his head and looked at his son, snorted and planned to discuss the terms with his son.

"Eh~hmm."

Chen Li was a little surprised. If Chen Li had teased his old man like this before, Chen Guofu would definitely not have chosen to compromise.

He would rather endure his wife's nagging for many days than negotiate any conditions with Chen Li.

But today, Chen Guofu has obviously changed, and this change should have a lot to do with the previous trip to the military camp.

Chen Li smiled, parked the pickup truck on the side of the road, gave his old man a cigarette, and then rubbed his thumb and index finger.

"What?"

"You're the big boss now, and you still ask me for money?"

Chen Guofu stared at his son intently, obviously very dissatisfied with his son's behavior.

"Old man~ you don't know."

"Although I am a small boss now, all the money is in the company."

"I have given all my own money to Qingqing for safekeeping!"

"Old man~ you don't know, sometimes I even have to ask Liu Qingqing to buy a cigarette."

The expression on Chen Li's face looked extremely aggrieved, but he was obviously pretending.

Even if he did hand over his personal bank card to Liu Qingqing for safekeeping, it would be a lie to say that he had to report to Liu Qingqing to buy cigarettes.

In fact, Chen Li rarely uses the money in his personal bank card now.

Although Ideal Fried Chicken is now a joint-stock company and Chen Li cannot use the funds at will like before, the chicken farm is his private property.

Most of his daily expenses come from the income from the chicken farm.

And the bank card he handed to Liu Qingqing was almost only used every time he went out to play with Liu Qingqing or bought gifts for his family.

Of course, the money in that bank card will also increase every month. After all, Chen Li also serves as the general manager of Ideal Fried Chicken, and this position is paid.

Chen Li is not like those people who give themselves a dollar annual salary. Every position he holds is paid.

Just like when he serves as a consultant for Red Pony Technology Company, he is also paid.

"Huh? Are you going to give Qingqing the money now?"

Chen Guofu looked at his son in surprise, but then he nodded again.

"That's fine~ You kid is spending so much money, someone should take care of it."

"Qingqing is a good girl, don't let her down!"

As Chen Guofu spoke, he took out a wad of banknotes from his pocket and counted them. There were a total of eight hundred and fifty-two yuan.

"Hey, old man. Why do you have so much money?"

"Aren't you hiding some private money?"

Chen Li looked at the stack of banknotes that his old man took out and immediately came over.

"Don't come here~ It's private money. This is the money your mother gave me when I came out in the morning."

Chen Guofu's eyes widened and his tone began to turn unkind.

He was a little scared. No, he loved his wife, but he was not so kind to his son.

"Hmph~ Old man, don't think I don't know."

"My mother gave you five hundred yuan this morning. She also told me that if you want to use the money, let me get it for you first so that you don't lose face outside."

"What you have here is more than 500 yuan! And you said it's not personal money, or else I should go back and ask my mother?"

Chen Li leaned back and looked at his old man.

"What a stupid question~!"

"Don't talk nonsense when you go back!"

Chen Guofu's eyes widened, and he immediately divided the money in his hand into two parts. He kept five hundred yuan for himself and handed the other three hundred yuan to Chen Li.

"Ha~ I want that share!"

Chen Li did not accept the money handed over by his old man, but instead directly reached out and snatched away the other five hundred yuan.

"What are you doing to me, kid?"

"Is it easy for me to save some money?"

"If you ask for money from Qingqing Fortress, won't Qingqing definitely not give it to you?"

"It's not like you don't know how difficult it is for me to ask your mother for money?"

"Take it back~ I'll give you more than three hundred!"

"Don't talk nonsense when you go back, and don't talk about what happened at noon!"

Chen Guofu stretched out his hand and started fighting with Chen Li. This scene didn't look like a father and son at all, but a bit like two brothers.

"No way~!"

"Whatever you want~ give me five hundred!"

"Whatever? I'll tell mom when I get back that you hid your personal money and were drunk at noon!"

"I see you want to beat me up today?"

"If you still want to hit me, then I will definitely tell mom."

"Give it to you~ Just give it to you!"
