rebirth of cataclysm

Chapter 29o of The Great Change of Rebirth: Knowledge is Wealth "Still hiding, hiding, hiding..." Hu Mingchen grabbed Luo Zhizheng by the collar, raised his hand and gave him a few blows.

"It hurts, it hurts, I didn't hide, oh...why did you only hit me and not the two of them..." Luo Zhi was running away with his head in his arms, but he couldn't escape Hu Mingchen's grasp.

"You two, come here, come here." Gu Xiaoqi and Mao Feng, who were not caught by Hu Mingchen immediately, tried to run away. Hu Mingchen did not chase them, but just said hello behind them in a deep voice.

Gu Xiaoqi and Mao Feng, who had already run a few steps away, scratched their heads and stopped, but they did not get close to Hu Mingchen's "power".

"I said come here, not stop. Did you two not understand or not?" Hu Mingchen let go of Luo Zhizheng, put a hand on his shoulder and walked forward.

Mao Feng and Gu Xiaoqi took two steps back: "If you don't fight, it will be the same."

"No? You haven't beaten the roof for three days. The three of you were squinting outside the window just now, laughing secretly, thinking I didn't see it?" Hu Mingchen said leisurely while riding Luo Zhizheng as he continued walking forward.

"Haha, we just peeked to see if you were being criticized, and we didn't want to see your jokes." Gu Xiaoqi said with a sarcastic smile.

"I am indeed being criticized, but it's just because of you three bastards. You two want to force me to chase you? If I want to catch you, it won't be over in just two strokes." Hu Mingchen threatened with a stern face.

At Hu Mingchen's threat, Gu Xiaoqi and Mao Feng looked at each other, then stood there motionless, waiting for Hu Mingchen to come up and knock twice to vent their anger.

The reason why they are so honest is very simple. Hu Mingchen ran too fast. Even though they were five or six meters apart from each other, if Hu Mingchen wanted to chase them hard, they would be able to escape within twenty meters.

If he was chased and beaten twice more, he would not be more honest.

Hu Mingchen was not polite and rewarded each person with two chestnuts, which made Gu Xiaoqi and Mao Feng hug their heads and grin.

Of course, it was impossible for Hu Mingchen to really attack his three friends, he was just trying to intimidate them. If he really did attack, within half a minute, all three of them would be lying on the ground unable to get up.

In a fight with Song Qiaoshan, Hu Mingchen couldn't beat him by a long shot, but he was easily able to deal with the three of them.

.......

After having fun for a while, Hu Mingchen did not go back to the cinema to eat today. Instead, he and three of his friends had a meal at a food stall by the bridge. The person who paid the bill was naturally Hu Mingchen.

After dinner, Hu Mingchen led them to sit down under a banyan tree by the river.

"What's going on with you? I haven't had time to keep an eye on you during this period, and your studies have declined. Teacher Ma even came to me to tell me that you three are too unwilling to save face for me." Hu Mingchen said in a hurry.

The man with the golden sword sat in the middle and asked after wandering around the three of them for a while.

"Actually, we haven't declined much. We haven't even taken any exams. Why do we say our studies have declined?" Gu Xiaoqi pouted.

"You are still not convinced, are you? The teacher will wrongly accuse you? You must take the exam, you fool, you can see it by looking at your homework." Hu Mingchen was dissatisfied with Gu Xiaoqi's attitude and cursed.

Gu Xiaoqi lowered his head, fearing that Hu Mingchen would knock him again.

"If I don't study with you, I feel boring." Luo Zhizheng said.

"Holy crap, I paid for it for you, right? I'm not a teacher, and I'm not your parent. Besides, I go to class with you every day. I just leave school early and come to school late.

.Why do you say it's boring if you don't study with me? You study for yourselves, not for me." Hu Mingchen scolded.

"Hu Mingchen, we are different from you. No matter how hard we study, we can only go to Duge Middle School. But if we go to Duge Middle School, the grades of the three of us will be fine now." Gu Xiaoqi raised his head and glanced at Hu Mingchen and said.

"I'm afraid I won't even be able to attend Duge Middle School." Mao Feng said weakly.

"What's going on? Why can't you even go to Duge Middle School?" Hu Mingchen asked, staring at Mao Feng.

"My grandma is sick and can no longer sell things. My mother has also been in poor health these past few months..." At this point, Mao Feng did not continue, but Hu Mingchen understood what he meant.

The implication is that after Mao Feng enters elementary school, he will most likely have to go home to share the family burden and help his father with work.

In Duge Township, there are many children who went to primary school but did not continue to junior high school. In addition to personal academic performance, this is also inseparable from family conditions.

In the situation like what Mao Feng said, his family not only lacked two laborers, but more importantly, no matter who got sick, they had to spend money. The conditions of his family were not good to begin with.

Money, the expenses for Mao Feng's schooling will be a big problem.

Perhaps because he had little hope for the future, Mao Feng naturally lacked the motivation to make progress.

Hu Mingchen wanted to help Mao Feng's family, but he was powerless now. Although the movie theater made some money every day, there were so many people to feed, so many chickens and pigs to feed, plus

With all kinds of messy expenses, he is now unable to make ends meet, otherwise he wouldn't have to borrow money from Xu Tiancai and the others to survive.

Hu Mingchen touched his wallet and took out more than forty yuan. He put the change back into his pocket and handed the other forty yuan to Mao Feng's hand.

"What are you doing? I can't take your money, I can't take it?" Mao Feng moved away with one hand and pushed the money back with the other.

"You're kidding, just take it." Hu Mingchen squeezed Mao Feng's hand with one hand and stuffed the money into his jacket pocket with the other.

Mao Feng reached for the money in his wallet and gave it back to Hu Mingchen.

"If you want to treat me as a friend and brother, just take it. If not, just give it back to me." Hu Mingchen glared at Mao Feng with a tigerish face.

"Mao Feng, just take what Hu Mingchen gave you. Didn't you say yesterday that your mother had no money to buy medicine? I just happened to bring her two boxes of medicine home today." Gu Xiaoqi advised him.

Only then did Mao Feng's hand rest on his purse and made no further movements.

When Luo Zhizheng saw Hu Mingchen giving 40 yuan to Mao Feng, there was a hint of envy in his eyes, but when he saw Mao Feng was about to shed tears, his envy disappeared immediately.

"I'm in a difficult situation right now. I can only help you so much. After a while, when the conditions are better, I will find ways to help you." Hu Mingchen patted Mao Feng on the shoulder and said.

"Hu Mingchen, thank you." Mao Feng lowered his head, and two tears fell from his face onto his knees.

"Thank you, thank you. We are buddies. When I see you having trouble, can I stand by and watch? Okay, okay, stop crying. You are a man. What do you look like when you cry? Lift your head, stop crying, trouble

It’s a joke, people who don’t know better think that the three of us bullied you.” Hu Mingchen said.

Mao Feng sobbed two or three times, raised his head, wiped his eyes with his sleeve to wipe away the tears, and gritted his teeth to hold back the crying.

"That's nonsense. This difficulty is only temporary and will pass soon. Let me tell you, the more this happens, the more you have to study seriously. Otherwise, as you are now, you can go home

What kind of help is it? It’s just digging the ground and cutting some grass to feed the pigs. This can’t help at all.

Can you change the difficulties at home? No. Moreover, if you do that, your parents may not be happy. Only by reading more books can you make big money in the future. Only by making big money can you really make your mother happy.

Grandma will live a good life, right?" Hu Mingchen began to do ideological work on Mao Feng.

Hu Mingchen's words were meant for Mao Feng, but also for Luo Zhizheng and Gu Xiaoqi.

Of the three of them, only Gu Xiaoqi's family's conditions are barely adequate, and Luo Zhizheng's family is not much better than Mao Feng's family.

Hu Mingchen did not talk to them about ideals or big principles in life, but faced practical problems very simply. Because it was impossible to talk about ideals with them, and they would not listen.

In response to Hu Mingchen's words, Mao Feng neither nodded nor shook his head. It could be seen that he was still struggling and hesitating in his heart.

"No matter what, you should finish junior high school. You just need to listen to me and study hard. I will pay your tuition fees when the time comes." Hu Mingchen continued.

As soon as he heard that Hu Mingchen was helping me pay my tuition fees, Mao Feng's eyes lit up: "Are you really helping me pay my tuition fees?"

"Why did I lie to you? Is it fun to lie to you? Or do you doubt that I can't afford your tuition? Haha." Hu Mingchen said with a smile.

"No, no...I listen to you." Mao Feng was so excited that he waved his hands and nodded.

They all knew that Hu Mingchen's family owned a movie theater, and the business was pretty good. Since Hu Mingchen could take out dozens of dollars with him, they knew that the tuition fee of about a hundred dollars per semester was no problem.

"That's right. The same goes for you two. Gu Xiaoqi, do you want to follow your father and learn to kill pigs and sell them? If you just want to kill pigs in the future, then I have nothing to say. If you don't want to, then

Just study hard." Hu Mingchen then pointed at Gu Xiaoqi and said.

"I don't like killing pigs, it's too dirty. I think... I want to be a contractor." Gu Xiaoqi expressed his outrageous ideal for the first time.

"Haha, contractor, a good contractor can make money, but can you calculate those accounts now? Do you know how much a cubic meter of sand and gravel is? Do you know how many people it takes to dig a kilometer of ditch?" Hu Mingchen

Laughed softly.

Gu Xiaoqi shook his head continuously.

"Then you are still a shameless foreman. Others are making money, but you are afraid that you will lose even your pants. A good foreman also needs to be educated. Hurry up and learn more, especially mathematics and geometry.

, you should be able to understand at least the simple sketches." Hu Mingchen said.

"Hu Mingchen, is it because you are good at studying that you are so good at making money?" Luo Zhizheng asked suddenly.

"Hmm...ah, that's about it. This is a good question. This is the principle. If you want to make money, if you want to make more money, you have to study more. Knowledge is wealth." Hu Mingchen was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
