Chapter 1427 Are you trying to drag me down? (Caven, please take a leave for one more update)
Li Zhongfa and Wu Juying did not ride in the same car with Li Ye today, so they were a little surprised when they saw Li Ye park the car. However, they were also very surprised when they saw Lao Song getting out of the car.
He walked over in two or three steps and just heard Lao Song say, "I just felt that the end was near, and I was afraid of dying outside, so I came back to take one last look." He couldn't help but feel sad.
Originally, Old Song decided to go to Japan after he was involved in the disappearance of Naoto Nakamura. At that time, Old Song was already over 60 years old. His motive for going to Japan was obviously to "seek death". Li Zhongfa saw that something was wrong and had a farewell drink with him.
Although Li Zhongfa was a simple and frugal Eighth Route Army soldier who carried a gun and killed the enemy in the early years, and Lao Song was a corrupt and evil pawnshop owner who visited brothels and drank wine, the two belonged to opposite classes.
But at that time, Old Song also gave Li Zhongfa two batches of medicinal materials, and both of them had a blood feud with the Japanese, so when they were drunk, they sighed that "we may never see each other again in this life."
Old Song hasn't been home for six or seven years. Now he is over seventy years old and suddenly comes back. Does he really feel that his "time is up"?
Old Song had a good eye. Seeing Li Zhongfa coming over, he quickly said with a smile, "Long time no see, Director Li. My grandson has been very grateful to you for taking care of him these past two years. I will never be able to repay you for your kindness in this lifetime. Let my grandson continue to repay you."
After Old Song passed away, his only grandson was indeed taken care of by Old Li's family. Otherwise, he would have been a young man in his twenties, living alone at home and receiving large sums of "overseas remittances" every year. He would have been targeted by countless people.
If you win the lottery thirty years from now, a group of people who specialize in "hunting the nouveau riche" will come to your door and try to drag you into eating, drinking, gambling, and whoring. What's more, the social environment in the 1990s was far worse than that of later generations?
So when Old Song's grandson got married, it was Li Kaijian who went there to help with the wedding. Even the most foolish thugs would not dare to set their sights on this "orphan".
But Li Zhongfa didn't respond to Old Song's words. Instead, he said solemnly, "Don't talk about useless things. What's wrong with you? If foreign hospitals can't cure it, then try our own traditional Chinese medicine."
Old Song was stunned for a moment, then quickly said: "No, no, I was just joking with the champion! Actually, my granddaughter-in-law gave birth to a big fat boy, and he is about to be one month old.
A few days ago, my grandson called me and cried, and my great-grandson was crying too. We haven't seen each other for six or seven years, so I came back to see him."
"You just came back to check on yourself. Are you okay?"
"That's right, Director Li, you have a sharp eye. Look at me now. I look richer than any landlord before."
Li Zhongfa stared at Old Song carefully. The other's face was rosy and had some fat. It was indeed much better than the dry and gray look he had a few years ago.
Li Zhongfa sighed and said, "Then you should live a few more years. You two have suffered so much in the first half of your lives. If you don't live a few more years, you will lose a lot in this life."
Old Song chuckled and said, "Director Li is right. When I was a child, I asked Hu Banxian to tell my fortune. He said I would live to be at least a hundred years old."
"Okay, when it's your 100th birthday, call me and I'll bring you a pot of good wine."
Li Zhongfa glanced at Lao Song and turned to walk towards his car. Hu Banxian died inexplicably for more than ten years. Do you dare to believe the fortune he told?
But Old Song answered seriously: "Okay, I will definitely invite you to drink a pot of wine when the time comes."
“.”
Old Song watched Li Zhongfa return to the car before turning around and preparing to get in himself.
Unexpectedly, Li Ye blocked the car door and said with a smile: "We haven't seen each other for a long time, let's get in the car and talk?"
Old Song bared his yellow teeth and said, "Okay, I miss the top scholar too!"
So Lao Song drove the people in the car to another car, and he and Li Ye were in one car alone.
Li Ye asked while driving, "Tell me! What bad things are you planning to do when you come back this time? Don't lie to me. If you dare to lie to me, I will punish your grandson."
"Hey, I still can't hide it from you."
Old Song chuckled, then stopped smiling and said with a sharp look in his eyes, "Colonel Nakamura's company has gone bankrupt. I don't think he has many years left to live."
"Nakamura Kenshou is dying? Isn't that a good thing?"
Li Ye was a little surprised, because he had seen Nakamura Kenshou through the windowsill telescope at the home of the stupid old Song. He knew that Old Song was staring at the old man every day, hoping for his death all the time.
At that time, Kenju Nakamura was playing golf in the company, which made people think that he was in good health, so Lao Song was still afraid that his body would not be able to survive Kenju Nakamura and he would die before the other.
At that time, the Japanese stock market was at its craziest. Nakamura Kentoshi placed a heavy bet on the Japanese financial market and seemed to be doing very well. This made Old Song very angry that God was unfair and that the evildoers got rewarded with good.
But at this moment, Kenshou Nakamura must have lost everything.
After Japan's stock market rose to 38,915 points two years ago, it plummeted like an unexpected storm. The dreams of countless people to become rich overnight turned into a dream abyss, and the stampede caused by panic became the main theme of the Japanese stock market.
And this decline has lasted for three years, and this year it has reached the bottom.
Given this kind of sudden fall and blow, Nakamura Kenju was considered strong as he didn't suffer a sudden heart attack and died, but it was very likely that he would not live for many more years.
But Old Song shook his head and said, "I used to hope he would die, but now I think it would be too easy for him to die like this, so before he dies, I have to lie to him one more time."
"You want to lie to him again? You really like courting death!"
Li Ye really didn't know what to say.
In the 1930s, Lao Song cheated Nakamura Kenshou with a batch of fake antiques, and then he had his leg broken and lost the lives of the pawnshop owner and his entire family.
Now decades have passed, and he is buried up to his neck in the earth, but he still wants to deceive the other party again. Does he only remember the good and not the bad?
Old Song slowly shook his head and said, "This is a different time. Zhuangyuanlang, back then he didn't treat us as human beings, and now that old man Zhongcun owes me money for usury, I will also make him a living."
Li Ye was surprised and asked, "Old Song, are you still lending money at high interest rates?"
Old Song smiled awkwardly and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Zhuangyuan, I only lend money to Japanese people, and the people who handle the money for the imprint are also Japanese people."
“.”
Li Ye stopped talking.
Old Song said it clearly. I am lending money at high interest in Japan. You can't use the morals of the flower-growing industry to restrain me, right?
Li Ye was silent for a moment before he said quietly, "So, did you intend to die with him, and that's why you came back to take one last look at your grandson?"
"Hey, you're distracted."
Old Song sucked his teeth and said calmly, "That old man Nakamura has come to the mainland. I don't want to die with him on our territory."
“.”
Li Ye turned his head to look at Lao Song and felt that he did not seem to be trying to be tough.
So Li Ye had no choice but to curse: "Whatever you want! You can do whatever you want."
He had no way of persuading Old Song to "take a step back and the sky would be clearer." After all, it was an irreconcilable feud that even God could not resolve.
But at this moment, Old Song said with a smile: "Don't worry, Mr. Zhuangyuan, I definitely don't want to die, but if you can do me a small favor, my chances of survival will be better."
"Crap, are you trying to drag me down with you?"
