It was almost two o'clock in the morning when we returned to the rental house. Zhang Li was still awake and was sitting on the sofa with a worried look. She finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Lu Shanmin coming back.
"You're finally back"?
"what happened"?
Zhang Li pointed to the room where Chen Kun used to live. The door was closed, and light shone through the crack in the door.
Lu Shanmin clenched his fists subconsciously and asked alertly, "Is there someone?"
Zhang Li nodded, "After you left in the afternoon, a strange man came to the door and said he wanted to rent a house. I wanted to discuss it with you and ask him to come over tomorrow, but he refused to leave and immediately
He moved several large suitcases into the house and said he had to see you."
"See me"? Lu Shanmin frowned. "Is there something wrong with this person's head?"
Zhang Li nodded worriedly: "That person does not look normal, so I have been afraid to fall asleep and waited for you to come back."
Lu Shanmin was about to go over and knock on the door to find out the person's true identity. The door opened, but before the person came out, the voice had already come out.
"Calligrapher, you are back."
Just as Lu Shanmin was wondering why the voice sounded familiar, an unkempt man with half-white hair, a shaggy beard, and thick glasses walked out.
The two stared at each other with wide eyes and said in unison: "It's you"!!
Zhang Li looked at the two of them strangely, "Do you know each other?"
The two nodded and shook their heads.
The strange man held a rental advertisement written by Lu Shanmin in his hand. He looked around the Lu Shanmin and asked in disbelief, "Did you write this little advertisement?"
Lu Shanmin nodded in surprise, "I wrote it."
The man frowned and shook his head, "It doesn't look like that."
"Big..." Lu Shanmin was about to open his mouth to speak. The man quickly raised his hand and said, "Stop it, don't call me uncle, let alone uncle. I'm only thirty years old this year."
"Thirty years old"? Both Lu Shanmin and Zhang Li were surprised. Although this person did not have deep wrinkles, his hair was half white, and even his sloppy beard was mixed with a lot of white. Although he was not very old, he was not very old either.
Maybe only thirty years old.
Seeing the suspicious expressions on their faces, the man coughed dryly, "Have you never seen a boy with gray hair?"
Then he looked at Lu Shanmin in a daze, which made Lu Shanmin's heart tremble. "My name is Zuoqiu. I am thirty years old and I am a writer."
"Writer"? Lu Shanmin and Zhang Li looked at each other, disbelief written all over their faces.
Zuoqiu looked at Lu Shanmin and said, "I came here after seeing the words in the rental advertisement. I thought he would be a great calligrapher with gray hair, but I didn't expect it would be you." As he said this, he shook his head, "It doesn't look like that, it doesn't look like that."
, you don’t look like an intellectual at all.”
Lu Shanmin looked at Zuoqiu again and thought, you don't look like a writer either.
After the three introduced each other and confirmed that Zuoqiu was not a patient who had escaped from the mental hospital, Lu Shanmin and Zhang Li felt relieved.
After a night of silence, Lu Shanmin got up early the next day, finished his routine calligraphy and Tai Chi exercises, borrowed a pen and a notebook from Zhang Li, and walked out of the alley with an anxious mood. Today,
It will be Lu Shanmin’s first day entering the university classroom.
After walking out of Minsheng West Road and about two kilometers to the west, Lu Shanmin saw the tall lintel, which said "Donghai Financial College". Standing at the door of the school, Lu Shanmin looked at the line of gold-plated characters in a daze. Just looking at it
When you arrive at the tall door, you can already feel the solemnity and solemnity. Before you step onto the campus, the breath of culture and knowledge has already hit your face. This is the legendary university, which can move the village party secretary to tears, and can make the village party secretary cry.
The stingy village chief set off several miles of firecrackers to show off the university. Standing here, I was already very excited. Donghai University, where Bai Ling was studying, was the highest institution in Donghai. What would it be like there?
"Lu Shanmin." A clear and sweet voice came, interrupting Lu Shanmin's thoughts.
Looking for the reputation, not far from the campus, Zeng Yaqian, wearing a light blue dress and a light pink satchel on her shoulder, with long flowing hair, was waving towards her.
"Come in quickly, why are you hanging around?"
Lu Shanmin smiled, calmed down, took a deep breath, and entered the university in one step. The mountain villager who had never attended junior high school or high school entered university in one step.
The main road paved with asphalt road is spacious and clean, with tall and straight camphor trees on both sides forming a forest. The school's teaching building is not high, but is looming in the forest, looking solemn and mysterious, which can arouse the desire to find out. Listen.
Zeng Yaqian's school occupies a small area, only a few dozen acres, but in the eyes of Lushan people, it is already very large, at least as big as a dozen Mazui Village primary schools. You can't hear the sound of sirens here, and you can't smell the smell of car exhaust.
, you can’t see the vast sea of people. Separated by a wall, your eyes are filled with green and the scent of camphor, making you feel like you have entered a paradise.
It's quiet. Although it's class time soon, and there are many students carrying schoolbags or holding books on the road, you can't hear the noisy sound outside the wall at all. There is another thing that cannot be seen outside the wall, 'books'
, people here, whether they are teachers or students, all carry books with them when they walk. Walking side by side with Zeng Yaqian, blending into the students coming and going, Lu Shanmin had the illusion that he was also a member of this place.
Lu Shanmin was like Grandma Liu walking into the Grand View Garden, looking east and west, her eyes full of novelty and her heart full of excitement. Zeng Yaqian acted as a tour guide. This is the lotus pond, where many students go to memorize English words in the morning;
Over there is the camphor forest, which is the best date spot for lovers; over there is the library, which is full of old-fashioned books. Over there is the basketball court, where many nymphos like to wait and catch handsome guys; over there is the student cafeteria.
, they are all big pot dishes, and they are terrible to eat.
The amphitheater in the first teaching building exploded with flowers. The school beauty and a strange boy were walking on the school's main road talking and laughing. This was the biggest breaking news in the freshman finance department in the past few months. For a long time, finance
The boys in the department are all discussing Zeng Yaqian's beauty and family background. The boys who think that her family background and appearance are superior to others are trying their best to eat this beautiful flower. The toads who are more aware of current affairs can only speculate and lament that she can become Zeng Yaqian's true destiny.
The boys of the emperor must be so lucky. As for the girls, most of them can only be envious, jealous and hateful.
Luo Cheng's face was livid, and his fists were clenched. The first time he saw Zeng Yaqian, he was deeply attracted by her beauty and temperament and couldn't help himself. Luo Cheng also came from a wealthy family, with a villa and a luxury car at home, and he was also
He is good-looking, 1.8 meters tall. He has studied Taekwondo since he was a child and has a well-proportioned figure. He thinks he is completely worthy of Zeng Yaqian, but she has confessed her love to Zeng Yaqian several times, openly and secretly, and Zeng Yaqian doesn't even bother to look at him, let alone give him a kiss.
Smile. When I heard that she was talking and laughing with a strange boy, I was instantly jealous and turned pale with anger.
When he reached the door of the classroom, Lu Shanmin was so nervous that he could hear his heartbeat. His hands were sweating unconsciously, and he stood there in a daze without stepping in.
Zeng Yaqian laughed and said, "Didn't you say that you have beaten a big black bear in the mountains? This makes you scared?"
Lu Shanmin wiped the sweat on his pants with both hands, "It's not that I'm afraid, I'm just a little nervous."
Zeng Yaqian grabbed Lu Shanmin's arm and stepped into the classroom.
"Woo, hoo, boo!" The two of them walked into the classroom, and the classroom exploded. The girls felt incredible, while the boys felt envy, jealousy, and hatred intertwined with various emotions.
Luo Cheng's eyes were bloodshot and he stared at Lu Shanmin and Zeng Yaqian tightly, his fists trembling slightly unconsciously.
Zeng Yaqian always followed her own path and let others have their say. She ignored the booing from her classmates. She held her head high and pulled Lu Shanmin straight to Guan Yue's seat in the first row. Zeng Yaqian had already told Guan Yue in advance to sit in the first row.
It occupies two positions.
Guan Yue and Zeng Yaqian's roommates also looked incredulous.
After the two sat down, Guan Yue whispered into Zeng Yaqian's ear: "Emotions, you asked me to take a seat in the first row because of this handsome barbecue guy"?
Zeng Yaqian glanced at Guan Yue, "Isn't it possible?"
Guan Yue frowned slightly and said, "Ya Qian, forget about joking, could it be that you are serious about it?"
Zeng Yaqian pinched Guan Yue's thigh and said, "Shut that gossipy mouth of yours."
Staring at the backs of Lu Shanmin and Zeng Yaqian, Luo Cheng picked up the book on the table and walked straight to the first row. He patted the shoulder of a man with glasses next to Lu Shanmin and said, "Go to the back."
The man with glasses was in a state of elation to be able to sit so close to the school beauties. He was about to get angry and ruin my good deeds. When he looked up, he quickly suppressed his anger. Luo Cheng
Who is he? Not to mention the finance department, he is famous in the entire finance college. Not only is he handsome, but his family is also very rich. He drove a BMW to school on the first day of school. I also heard that he has been practicing Taekwondo since he was a child.
He can easily bring down three or five people. Thanks to his rich family and generous spending, many boys in the entire finance department are his best buddies. Such people are not something that someone from an ordinary family in a small city can mess with.
Affordable.
Sitting next to Lu Shanmin, Luo Cheng sneered, "Friend, which department are you from?"
Lu Shanmin didn't ask any questions. He didn't mean to embarrass him. He was too nervous and his whole heart was beating. In addition, there was some commotion and noise in the classroom, so he didn't hear Luo Cheng's questions at all. But in Luo Cheng's case,
It seems that this is a kind of disregard and a kind of humiliation. Suppressing the anger in his heart, he raised his voice and said fiercely: "There is no one in the entire financial college who dares not to take me seriously."
Lu Shanmin turned his head and looked at the angry Luo Cheng, with confusion on his face, "Are you talking to me? I'm not a financial college student."
Luo Cheng sneered, provocative! This is a naked provocation.
Luo Cheng slowly stretched out his right hand and said, "My name is Luo Cheng, what do you call me?"
The hostility in the other party's eyes was so strong that he wanted to eat him alive. Lu Shanmin was confused, but out of courtesy, he extended his right hand in response.
Holding their hands together, Lu Shanmin frowned slightly, while Luo Cheng sneered.
The class bell rang, and an old professor with gray hair, thick glasses, and a white shirt walked into the classroom.
The smile on Luo Cheng's face grew wider. He pulled Lu Shanmin's hand and put it under the desk. The veins on his hand popped out and he pressed harder.
The old professor took the textbook and slapped it twice on the podium, and the gossip in the classroom due to Lu Shanmin and Zeng Yaqian gradually disappeared.
The old professor adjusted his glasses, glanced around the classroom, and nodded with satisfaction, "You bastards did a good job today. You have been studying microeconomics for a semester. This is the first time there are so many people here."
The appearance of the old professor made Lu Shanmin's blood boil, and they even forgot about Luo Cheng's existence. University professor, this is definitely a legendary figure. If the university is a sacred palace, then the professor is undoubtedly the most dazzling gem at the top of the palace.
I had only heard of this kind of character before, not even seen it in a movie. I couldn't express my excitement. Under the excitement, I unconsciously increased my strength in my hands.
Luo Cheng, who was waiting for Lushan people to make a fool of himself in public, felt a huge force suddenly coming from his hand, followed by heartbreaking pain. Fine beads of sweat began to leak out from his forehead, and his face turned red. Luo Cheng gritted his teeth and secretly
Tell yourself, 'I will not lose to you'.
Thinking back on what I saw and heard today, I walked into a university campus for the first time, sat in a university classroom for the first time, and even met a university professor who was extremely talented and knowledgeable. The more I thought about it, the more excited I became, and the strength in my hands was unconscious.
getting bigger.
"Let go." Luo Cheng finally couldn't bear the pain from his palms, and whispered through gritted teeth. However, Lu Shanmin's mind was completely focused on the professor on the podium at the moment, as if his six senses were closed, and he didn't hear his words at all.
"Ah!" Luo Cheng finally couldn't bear it and shouted loudly.
The whole classroom was stunned, and everyone looked here. The old professor's chalk just touched the blackboard, and the chalk broke.
The old professor turned his head, his glasses hung on his nose, and looked down at Luo Cheng, "Roaring class, do you think my old man is dead?"
Luo Cheng blushed, his right hand couldn't help shaking, and he glanced at Lu Shanmin coldly. "Professor Ma, I have enteritis."
The old professor walked off the podium and looked at Luo Cheng carefully. His face was red and his forehead was covered with sweat. It was obvious that he was in serious pain.
"Enteritis can be serious or minor. Go to the school hospital as soon as possible." After saying that, he walked onto the podium again.
Luo Cheng gritted his teeth and glared at Lu Shanmin, stood up and walked out of the classroom.
Lu Shanmin looked at his right hand and cast an apologetic look at Luo Cheng's back. He turned around and asked Zeng Yaqian softly: "Did I offend him?"
Zeng Yaqian, who was close at hand, could clearly see everything that had just happened, but she did not think that Luo Cheng would be a match for Lu Shanmin, a fierce hunter. Although they were both rich second generation, Zeng Yaqian looked down on Luo Cheng's ability to rely on several
Qian thinks that I am the second richest generation in the world, not to mention that Luo Cheng is like an annoying fly, buzzing around her all day long, and she has long wanted to slap him to death.
Zeng Yaqian smiled happily and said, "Ignore him."
The old professor wrote the words "Revealed Preference Theory" on the blackboard, "We will talk about this in this class, but before starting the lecture, I would like to ask a few questions to see how you learned in the last class."
The old professor's eyes scanned around the classroom, finally landing on Lu Shanmin, and then nodded.
Lu Shanmin looked around, then looked at the old professor anxiously.
"Don't look, it's you." The old professor said impatiently.
Lu Shanmin looked at Zeng Yaqian nervously, and Zeng Yaqian responded with a faint smile.
Lu Shanmin stood up helplessly.
"This classmate, please review the historical origins of microeconomics for everyone."
"I have no idea."
The old professor slapped his hand on the textbook and said, "What can I say to you? Your parents spent money to send you to this shabby school and you learned the word 'I don't know'. What do you know? What do you look like?"
If you look like a human being, you can pick up girls. If you look like a human being, you can hide in the dormitory and play games."?
Lu Shanmin lowered his head in shame, his palms all sweaty.
"That girl next to you, come and tell us something."
Zeng Yaqian stood up slowly, "The historical origins of microeconomics can be traced back to Adam Smith's "The Wealth of Nations" and Alfred Marshall's "Principles of Economics." After the 1930s, the British and American scholars
Chamberlain proposed the manufacturer's equilibrium theory based on Marshall's equilibrium price theory, marking the final establishment of the microeconomics system. This system mainly includes: equilibrium price theory, consumer economics, productivity economics, manufacturer's equilibrium theory and welfare economics.
study."
The old professor smiled and nodded, "Everyone, sit down."
Lu Shanmin turned to look at Zeng Yaqian. He couldn't understand what she said at all. He only thought it should be very profound. In the past, he only thought that Zeng Yaqian's biggest advantage was that she was beautiful and her biggest advantage was that her family was rich. Only now did she realize that she was related to
The gap between her was not only superficial material, but also inner knowledge. This gap gave him an irreparable feeling of powerlessness.
Lu Shanmin had a splitting headache after listening to the whole class. The old professor talked about the 'wait-and-see theory, regret theory, fuzzy model', especially those weird foreign names, which made Lu Shanmin not even know how to take notes.
How to remember.
The notebook was full of words. Lu Shanmin didn't know which ones were useful and which ones were useless, let alone the meaning of recording every word the old professor said. He just took the mentality of taking it as he came and studied hard.
After finishing this lesson, it doesn’t matter whether you understand it or not.
Lu Shanmin didn't know that when he was writing furiously, the old professor on the podium gave him a happy smile more than once. Most of the students in the financial college were at the bottom of their high school studies. They didn't like studying very much.
I have been teaching in a finance college for so many years, and this is the first time I have seen a student who takes notes so carefully.
Lu Shanmin's vigorous writing naturally attracted Zeng Yaqian's attention. She tilted her head and looked at Lu Shanmin's notebook. She was shocked at first that a mountain villager who graduated from elementary school could write such good handwriting. When she continued to read what Lu Shanmin remembered,
Zeng Yaqian couldn't help but burst into laughter.
