Chapter 69 I Can't Support Myself 【For Collection】
On the ancient pond in the wilderness, when Li Tian saw the acquaintance, he would neither leave nor stay.
After all, it is not too early. If Li Tian leaves here and finds another fish pond, it should not be difficult to catch 3 fish as required by the special task.
"Oh, isn't this Li Tian?"
Unexpectedly, the acquaintance would say hello first. His name is Wang Kai. He is from a village in Li Tian. He is about 3 to 4 years older than Li Tian. I just remember that when Li Tian was still in elementary school, this Wang Kai was already in In junior high school.
He left school earlier than Li Tian. He didn't go to school after finishing junior high school. Li Tian at least went to high school.
After he got out of school, he went to the construction site. I heard that he has been doing water and electricity installations. In the past few years, when the construction industry was the most prosperous, he made a lot of money. He bought a house and a car in the city. Now his wife and children have .
Compared to the down-and-out Li Tian, he can be considered a winner in life.
"Haha." Li Tian first smiled awkwardly. "Brother Kai, when did you come back?"
"I came back last night. The child missed his grandmother, so I brought him back to play for two days. Don't stand stupidly, come and fish. I just happened to be bored by myself. Let's fish together, be friends, and talk. "Wang Kai is only a few years older than Li Tian, and he has no pretense. He has been messing around outside for more than ten years, and he is relatively good at talking.
Unlike Zhang Lei, Zhang Lei graduated from university and entered a large company. He wears suits and ties all day long.
On the other hand, Wang Kai's education level is not high, he does rough work, and he has a social atmosphere.
"it is good."
Li Tian didn't know what to say. Although they were acquaintances, because of the age difference and the fact that the two families were far apart, Li Tian never played with Wang Kai when he was a child.
So know, but the relationship is not as good as Zhang Lei.
It may be because there is no deep relationship, so Wang Kai talks more.
"Li Tian, I also listened to my mother about you. I heard that you are planning to be a small farmer now?"
When he came, Li Tian smiled bitterly in his heart. The whole village knew about the fact that he was now a small farmer in his hometown. Since he couldn't escape, he said bluntly: "Yes, I have no ability, I have been outside for many years, and I haven't made a breakthrough..."
However, before Li Tian finished speaking, Wang Kai just came over with a cigarette. Li Tian noticed that his movements were very skilled. He often smoked cigarettes for others, but what surprised Li Tian was his hands. The calluses are very thick, and many places are cracked. He is only in his early thirties, and some of his hair is white. He looks like someone who has suffered a lot.
'It's not without reason that people can get ahead. ' Li Tian would think so in his heart.
"I don't smoke, thank you."
Wang Kai smiled. "Men don't smoke or drink, so what's the point of living, but like Zhang Lei, you are a cultural person, so it's good not to smoke."
"What literate person?" Li Tian said with a wry smile: "Zhang Lei, I am not. I came down before I finished high school, and I am completely illiterate."
Wang Kai smiled and didn't say much on this topic. His fishing rod is relatively well-equipped and fixed directly on the bracket. If a fish is hooked, he can take the fishing rod and free his hands. At this time, he ordered one by himself. Cigarette, squinting and smoking.
He returned to the topic just now and said: "Li Tian, we are all from the same village, and I don't treat you as an outsider. Being a farmer really has no future unless someone invests in you to make you bigger and stronger, usually in your own home. Growing food and land, it’s hard to survive, let alone get married and have children, how can I support a family if I can’t support myself.”
What Wang Kai said was quite true. Although Li Tian was smoking second-hand smoke and felt uncomfortable, he was not too repulsive in his heart.
Li Tian decided to be a small farmer in his hometown because he started the Super Small Farmer System. However, he has not yet found a reasonable explanation. Therefore, facing Wang Kai, Li Tian does not know how to answer.
But Wang Kai suddenly put the cigarette in his mouth, got up and pulled the fishing rod and said, "The fish is hooked."
Sure enough, although this ancient pond is relatively desolate, there are still some fish in it. This Wang Kai really caught a fish that weighed half a catty. After all, this is a wild crucian carp, not a fish raised in a fish pond.
Wang Kai caught a fish and was in a good mood. He threw the fish into his fish basket, then squatted down on the edge of the pond to wash his hands. When he got up, he smoked the cigarette from his mouth, threw it under his feet, and used his feet Step on it, after all, this is a barren mountain, and it will be bad if it catches fire.
After doing all this, Wang Kai suddenly looked at Li Tian and asked, "Li Tian, do you want to follow me?"
"..."
Li Tian was stunned, he did not expect Wang Kai to say these words.
"Although the installation of hydropower is not as easy as it was a few years ago, but if you work hard and learn this technique, being a hydropower master, you don't want to be rich, but there is no problem in supporting your family, as long as you are not lazy and not afraid of enduring hardships. ."
Li Tian hesitated for a long time, and finally smiled: "Thank you Kai for your kindness, maybe I really want to be a small farmer. When I'm busy, I work in the fields, and when I'm free, I go fishing leisurely. I don't have much ideals in life, that's all. Let it go."
Li Tian's hesitation was not in his heart, but he was thinking about how to reject Wang Kai. After all, if someone wanted to pull you, it would not be appropriate for you to immediately reject him.
Therefore, Li Tian's remarks are true and false.
After Wang Kai heard Li Tian's words, he could only helplessly shake his head. "Li Tian, this kind of thinking is unacceptable. After a few years as a small farmer, you will abolish—"
