Qi Nian's hometown is indeed on a barren island. This island is so small that it can be ignored. Let alone the map of Yangguo, this island cannot even be found on the map of Zhangzhou Province. It can only be found in Renshi and Chi

The existence of this island can only be seen on the map of the county. This island has a name that exactly matches the size of the island, called "Cun Island".

The straight-line distance between Cundao and the capital of Zhangzhou Province is not far, but the transportation is very difficult. First it takes 2 hours of high-speed rail, then 2 hours of bus, and finally a 2-hour boat ride. The last boat journey is the most uncomfortable. I don’t know why, I have to go back and forth from Cundao.

The only transportation in Chi County is this extremely slow boat, which seems to be swaying for eternity.

This decision to reject all the offers and return to his hometown was made hastily. Fu Jia said that Qi Nian looked handsome when he rejected people, but Qi Nian himself knew that this was not handsome at all and was completely helpless.

Qi Nian's parents unfortunately encountered a shipwreck and passed away while out fishing a few years ago. His only relative, his grandmother, was unable to leave his hometown of Cundao due to nostalgia and health issues. The call on the day of the interview was made by a distant relative, Qian Ergu.

Come. She has been taking care of grandma for several years, but now she has to leave Cundao to go to the south to take care of her grandson. It is impossible to leave grandma to anyone else except Qian Ergu, and taking care of grandma cannot be delayed. In this case

, Qi Nian had no choice but to return to his hometown.

Shocked to hear that Qi Nian turned down all the job opportunities and wanted to return to his hometown island, his classmates and roommates gave Qi Nian a lot of advice, urging him not to give up his great future and stay stuck in his hometown. But Qi Nian refused because his classmates did not

Understand his current situation. For him, taking care of his only relative is far more important than his future prospects.

There is still a long way to go in the future, but Grandma, who is already old, does not have much time left.

After 2 hours of high-speed train and 2 hours of bus, Qi Nian finally boarded the boat to Cun Island. Looking at the inconspicuous island in the sea, Qi Nian kept thinking about the brief phone call Qian Ergu made to him.

The phone call was short, but the amount of information was huge. In addition to wanting to go home immediately, Qian Ergu also had one other thing that she kept secret.

Although Qian Ergu didn't say anything clearly on the phone, Qi Nian guessed that it was related to her deceased parents.

Qi Nian never believed that his parents, who had extensive experience at sea, would be buried in the sea. There was something hidden in it that he had to find out when he returned to the island this time.

The boat was sailing very uneasily, and Qi Nian was also in an uneasy mood.

I am worried that I will be able to see my grandma soon after a few months. I am also worried about what I will do if I am stuck on this small island next. Do I really want to farm and fish like other villagers?

The moment he set foot on Cun Island, Qi Nian looked back at the sea nearby and the mainland in the distance and secretly swore:

No matter what, I must make great achievements on my home island!

No matter what, I must find out the truth behind my parents' death!

When Qi Nian returned to his hometown, he was warmly welcomed by Grandma and Qian Ergu like a distinguished guest. Grandma also specially prepared his favorite scallion pancake for Qi Nian. Scallion pancakes are available everywhere, but Grandma made one.

Unique condiment flavor.

After eating scallion pancakes with Qi Nian, Qian Ergu clapped her hands and quickly went through the handover procedures with Qi Nian before preparing to go home. Qi Nian sent her to the yard and solemnly thanked Qian Ergu for her

Grandma took good care of me and asked about the incident she mentioned on the phone that day.

"Don't ask me about your parents, ask the lunatic." After Qian Ergu said this, she hurried away.

Ask the madman? Isn’t the madman crazy?

After Qi Nian put grandma to take a nap, she went out to look for the madman.

As a result, when we arrived at the lunatic's house, we encountered General Tie holding the door. No one was home. After asking the neighbors, we found out that the lunatic had been sent to the city mental hospital by his parents a few days ago.

Qi Nian had no choice but to go home sadly to solve another urgent matter, his cell phone.

I don’t know whether it was because the temperature was too high or there was water on the boat, but the screen of Qi Nian’s phone stopped lighting up as soon as he landed on the island.

Qi Nian struggled in his room for an hour before confirming that the damage to the phone had exceeded his knowledge system. It was impossible to repair an old phone that had been used for several years. Qi Nian put the phone on the table.

I threw it away and decided to go to my neighbor’s house and buy another one online.

Tao Jin, who lives next door, is a few years younger than Qi Nian. He has not gone to school since graduating from high school, and he has been wandering around without finding a place. He just stays at home and plays games. There is nothing special about his home, but the performance of his computer

And the speed of the Internet is second to none on the island.

Qi Nian used Tao Jin's computer to compare online for a long time, but couldn't make up his mind. Thinking about life on the island without a job or scholarship, he still had to save where he should. So he used the mouse to click on a model with a price of more than 600.

Yuan is hanging around on entry-level smartphones.

"Stop, stop. Brother Anian, are you going to buy this phone?" Tao Jin asked Qinian while gnawing on the watermelon and pointing his chubby index finger at the screen.

Qi Nian replied: "Yes."

Tao Jin patted Qi Nian on the shoulder: "Comrade An Nian, you are a top student. Please pay attention to your identity!"

Qi Nian shrugged and shook Tao Jin's fat hands away: "What academic master? What is your status? Only a melon-eater like you needs to pay attention to your status and meddle in so many other things. Let me see you smearing watermelon juice on my shoulder."

Tao Jin put the watermelon in his hand on the table, wiped his hands on his clothes, and said: "You are a celebrity on our Cun Island. I think you rode thousands of miles from the island alone to get into the city's key middle school, and then you were admitted to the city's key middle school.

After passing five levels and killing six generals, I was admitted to Zhangzhou University. Although I am no longer wandering around in the world, my legend is still wandering in the wilderness of ten miles and eight villages, and I don't want to leave for a long time."

Qi Nian said: "Those who don't want to leave for a long time are innocent souls. I don't want to be a legend. I am a low-key person."

"That's not OK!"

Qi Nian turned around and asked: "Why not? I will take this 600 yuan mobile phone and tell the world that I am very low-key!"

Tao Jin was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, so he pushed Qi Nian away from the chair with his fat ass, snatched his mouse, and then quickly positioned it on another mobile phone. Tao Jin solemnly stated his recommendation to Qi Nian.

Word fighting games are so exciting!

Others are gone.

Not to mention, the mobile phone recommended by Tao Jin is indeed good. It is more than 300 yuan more expensive than the mobile phone selected by Qi Nian, but its performance has been improved to a certain level.

After reading the introduction and specifications of the mobile phone on the product details page, Qi Nian said with satisfaction: "Wen can take photos of beauty, Wu can make decisions. This is it!"

"That's the fighter jet in the Thousand Yuan Machine!"

Qi Nian bought a mobile phone on the computer and stood up and asked Tao Jin: "Why don't you install wifi? That thing is not expensive. It is inconvenient to use a network cable to connect to the Internet."

Tao Jin took over Qi Nian's computer, reopened the game interface and said, "How can the wifi network cable be stable? What if it gets stuck while fighting the boss?"

Well, this sentence completely extinguished Qi Nian’s idea of ​​using WiFi next door.

Tao Jin just stayed at home and played games all day long.

Normally, Tao Jin looks chubby, with squinted eyes that look dull. Compared with ordinary people, he is just in slow motion. But when he plays games, he is completely transformed, agile and lively, as if he has opened up the Ren and Du channels. Even the look in his eyes

They all became infatuated with each other, leading Qi Nian to mistakenly believe that Tao Jin had an indescribable affection for him.

Several times, it seemed that his fat butt was about to twist under the chair, but he shook his waist again (if that circle was considered a waist) and sat upright again.

Seeing Tao Jin obsessed with gaming from morning to night, one day Qi Nian couldn't help but asked: "Ajin, you play games every day, aren't you tired?"

"Tired! But very happy! Are you still afraid of being tired when you are happy?"

Yo! What this guy said sounds so philosophical!

"Why don't you go out and do something?"

"Why do you sound like my mother? I'm not like you college students, who have good jobs waiting for me after graduation. There is nothing to do on the island. I even went out to find a job, but it was not easy to find."

Jin stared at the game screen and replied, "It's not just me, many people are like this. Look at the people near the square, don't they all hang out with nothing to do all day long. They either play billiards, mahjong, or fight. I heard

……never mind."

"talk."

"There are also drug addicts."

"Ah!" Qi Nian really couldn't accept that this kind of thing would happen in his hometown.

After being silent for a while, Qi Nian raised his head and said to Tao Jin: "Jobs are not that hard to find. When I came from the county town, I saw many places recruiting workers. Restaurants, hair salons, e-commerce companies, express delivery companies, etc.

Yes. Some even earn thousands of dollars a month with food and accommodation included.”

Tao Jin's game was reaching a critical point, so he hurriedly said: "Wait a moment, I'll kill this monster first."

After Tao Jin finished dealing with the bullhorn monster that had been pestering him, he turned to Qi Nian and said, "Have you heard the story of Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu?"

Seeing Qi Nian nodding, Tao Jin continued: "Xiang Yu's father wants to teach him how to practice swordsmanship. Xiang Yu said, 'Dad, there are two kinds of sword techniques, one is the upper sword and the other is the lower sword. You want to teach me the upper sword."

Where is the sword? Or do you want to teach me how to use the sword? Xiang Yu is an overlord, so of course he can't practice being mean. So he said to his father, "A man's ambitions are in all directions, and he can live in one house." So his father taught him the art of war, and then he

…”

"Okay, okay." Qi Nian interrupted him with a smile. Where did this go? Several stories were strung together. "I've heard your story too, although it's a bit different from your version.

It’s different, but it’s basically the same. What do you want to say?”

"I want to say, 'A man's ambitions are everywhere'. Hairdressing and courier delivery are just swordsmanship. No matter how good you are, it is of no use. I want to do something big."

I have heard too many big words like Qi Nian. Which young person does not have a dream of doing big things in his heart? Otherwise, it is said that he is "youthful and frivolous".

Idle and idle, Qi Nian showed a very interested look: "What big business do you want to do? Come on, tell me about it, let me open my eyes."

"I haven't decided what I want to do yet. Anyway, I just want to open a company to make money, and then open a game company to make more money. In short, I will open whatever company makes money. Then... get... get listed in some European market.

"

"ipo."

"Well, yes, IPO. Become a domineering president. That's it."

Qi Nian said: "Well, I've heard your story too. Although it's basically the same, you at least know about the IPO listing, which shows that you are still a talented person. You have a bright future, young man!"

Tao Jin was also very happy after hearing Qi Nian's praise: "Brother An Nian, what do you think you can do?"

When Qi Nian heard this, he said to Tao Jin slowly: "Ah Jin, your question is very profound and a good question. I can't answer you rashly. I have to choose an auspicious day first."

Tao Jin saw the possibility of being chatted to death today, so he quickly changed the subject: "By the way, your phone hasn't arrived yet? I'm planning to form a team with you."
