Chapter 35 Young Man's Ambition Is Not Worrying
We need bread, but we need more than bread.
Life is a journey of alternate dullness and adventure. Some people like dullness while others like adventure. On this journey full of unknowns, we can never be sure what will happen in the next period of time. Whatever we choose, all we really need to do is enjoy it.
In Gu Tianyou's view, pursuing a journey of endless fun was far more exciting than a long journey of bread.
That night, Big Head Fang's final question was, "Even if you succeed, what are you going to do next? Stay here for the rest of your life like me and your father?"
Gu Tianyou replied, "God gave me a different starting point in my life, trapped in one place for many years, It was a very unfortunate encounter for most people, and I wish it was just the beginning of a long life. So, if I succeeded in this matter, the debt of gratitude and vengeance would be settled. I would not choose to stay. The future is too far away for my age. Perhaps I would consider studying for a diploma first. "
This answer was somewhat beyond Big Head Fang's expectations. Gu Tianyou smiled and said, "Actually, I have already signed up for this year's college entrance exam. The exam is definitely not going to work. However, I got a spot for the Jianye Police Academy. Although it's a little late, it's better to be late than never."
In the morning, at the Gu Clan's old mansion. Gu Tianyou and Old Geng were drinking tea in the hall, waiting for the Yang Wenshan brothers to discuss the details of their cooperation with Haizhou Holdings in purchasing Wolongtang.
"So, Fang Baiyu doesn't object to your relationship with his daughter?" Old Geng listened to Tianyou's explanation of what had happened last night.
"If my performance disappoints him, I'm afraid it's not a question of objection." Gu Tianyou shrugged his shoulders and thought about the conversation with Big Head Fang last night. He still felt a lingering fear in his heart and said, "Last night, he tested me three times."
"Sending Fang Hongpeng over is the first test. Testing my courage and skill, the process of questioning tested my temperament and determination. The last question is actually whether I intend to stay in Wolong Pond and compete with his precious son for the position of head of the family."
"I don't think these three trials are going to be easy. It seems that he is very satisfied with your answer."
"The first round is over, He already agreed to let Le'er come with me, It's just that his plan was, if I insist, Send us both out, The second probed, It was both a test and a contest. He used a threatening tone to point out the difficulties that might arise in my operation. He hoped that I would retreat. I managed to survive. He knew that he couldn't stop me from nodding and acquiescing. The third test was also a reminder. Wolong Tang was now the head of the family, and he would have to do it in the future. "
"I roughly understand what you talked to Fang Baiyu about last night, but I still don't understand." "If you fail, the consequences will be unimaginable. But once you succeed, what will you get in the end?"
"It's like giving me a peeled apple." Gu Tianyou smiled and said, "It's because you think I'm not bad, and I also think that Fang Baiyu is not bad. Actually, he has obtained quite a bit. He can avenge Gu Yufei , return the kindness of the Gu Clan to me, and even kidnap Fang Le'er ."
"I really want to know if you can really understand this, or if you have no choice but to do so."
"Cherish your life and enjoy yourself in time." Gu Tianyou said earnestly. Take a bite of the apple and nod in praise. "I'm too lazy to think about things that can't be changed, and I don't want to make long-term plans. Don't you think it's too late to pursue the life you want after you two are 60?"
Old Geng sighed. Just as he was about to sigh with emotion that he was born in the wrong era, the sound of a car stopping came from outside the gate. Then, Yang Wenshan led a fat young man into the courtyard.
The fat guy was Yang Wenshan's fourth brother, Yang Wenwen. Although this lord did not look shocking, he was a rare mathematical genius, and could be considered a treasure on the Flying Tiger Ridge. Three years ago, Yang Wenshan sent him to study in Nanyang. In name, he went to Lion City to study business administration. In fact, he was the one who managed the football website on Flying Tiger Ridge.
As soon as he entered, Yang Wenwen went straight to Gu Tianyou and shouted, "Big brother, I'm back. You finally called me back to your side."
In terms of age, this guy was five years older than Tianyou, but every time he saw Gu Tianyou, he would call him big brother. That was even more so than calling Yang Wenshan his big brother.
"How many times have I told you? What big brother and little brother are called? They are all in the Dao. When we get together, we are like-minded and help each other do something. I'm younger than you. It's not appropriate for you to always call me that."
"Whether it's appropriate or not, that's what I called it. If it weren't for you back then, my biological elder brother would have forced me to die alive." As he spoke, he threw the briefcase on the table and said, "Big Brother, the document has been drafted. Please take a look first."
Gu Tianyou didn't look and turned to ask Yang Wenshan , "Have you already seen it?"
Yang Wenshan nodded and said, "Basically, it was done according to your wishes. I don't know much about this either. Fourth Brother has endured for two days for this matter."
Gu Tianyou smiled and said, "It's been hard on you two. I won't look at the things anymore. I can rest assured that the two of you will do your job."
Yang Wenshan said, "When we came over, we walked through the village according to your instructions. No one came out to cause trouble. It seems that you are doing well."
"As long as the conditions are right and there is a relationship with my teacher, the possibility of Haizhou Holdings agreeing to cooperate is still very high. I'll leave the next matter to Fourth Brother. This is what he learned in Lion City. He definitely understands better than us." Gu Tianyou picked up the briefcase and casually threw it to Yang Wenwen. He then said to Yang Wenshan , "Brother Yang, help me go to school, find the headmaster Tie, and find an engineering team to build a new house for his family. It would be best if you personally supervise the work. You should treat it as training your hands in advance in order to get into the main line."
He turned around and looked at Old Geng. He patted his forehead and instructed, "Old Geng, take Big Eyed Sister to Dai Xiaolou and ask the parents if they have any news. If the time is convenient, go to Qinzhou Prison again. Seeing Teacher Miao help me ask, what is the background of a middle-aged woman next to his niece?"
Old Geng got up and went upstairs. Suddenly, he turned around and asked, "We've done everything. Then what are you doing?"
"Oh, right. Leave Old Yang's car for me. Old Geng didn't remind me that I almost forgot." Gu Tianyou chuckled and said, "I have an appointment with a beauty. Big Head Fang's daughter took part in a party at school and told me to be her dance partner tonight. Big Head Fang took the initiative to stir up the topic last night, saving me a lot of trouble. It was all because of her. Therefore, even if I can't dance, I have to go and fill in the numbers."
