Chapter 26 Coward Time passed day by day, and in a blink of an eye, most of the military training was all freshmen, Zhang Yunqi gets up at six o'clock every day, stands at attention, marches in formation, and marches in formation. The intensity is quite tiring, but as the military training progresses, everyone's spirits and enthusiasm are high. After a few days of adjustment, the relationship between Zhao Daxiong and the students in Class 168 gradually became harmonious. During training, he was like a pervert, torturing people in various ways; during rest time, he was like a fool, always smiling and getting along well with the students. In fact, Zhao Daxiong was not much older than them, a young man in his 20s, and he also loved to play and make noises. Sometimes he would borrow Tian Zhuangzhuang's Tetris handheld game console to play. After many promotions, Zhang Yunqi's handheld game console has now formed a certain word-of-mouth effect among freshmen. Business is very good, and acquaintances come to his door with a few classmates all day long. In just a few days, he has sold out most of the handheld games. This has also led to a group of "phone-drowsing people" on campus. Especially during the breaks in military training, students with handheld game consoles gather under the shade of trees, playing games intently. Zhao Daxiong was curious when he saw his classmates playing with this thing every day. He went over to watch it a few times and became interested. Tian Zhuangzhuang lent him his handheld game console, but he was so unskilled that none of his games could last more than three minutes. Tian Zhuangzhuang looked at him like a father looking at his son, full of disappointment. He also gave him a friendly nickname - Weak Brother. Wei Ge is an honest kid, so the students in class 168 can make fun of him. After all, they can’t make fun of him for many days. During evening self-study every night, many students had nothing to do, so Zhao Daxiong taught them to sing military songs, led them to sing with the next class, and told their classmates his own stories and stories about the army. Once, he was chatting with a male classmate. He talked about when he first joined the army. He was a new recruit for more than two months and was forbidden to eat anything except meals. One day, after the extra training at 2 o'clock in the middle of the night, he was very hungry. He took the steamed bun that he was reluctant to eat in the morning and ate it in the smelly toilet. The moon was very bright that day, and the steamed bun cracked. He cried while eating it because he missed home. Zhang Yunqi asked him how long it had been since he went home. He laughed and said: I haven’t been back since I joined the army…
****** After the training, Zhang Yunqi returned to the dormitory to count the accounts. Most of the military training has passed. He has sold more than 70 handheld game consoles and now has only 7 left. He estimates that he can sell them all in half a day. The Tetris handheld game console is selling so well that he has decided to expand this business. He will go to Shenzhen after the military training. What he needs to do now is to get a border pass. There is no way to get this thing. It will take an ordinary person at least half a month to get it. But if you have connections, it will only be a matter of three to five days. Zhang Yunqi has no time to wait, so he wants to ask Ji Zhong for help. As the son-in-law of Yunxi Village, Ji Zhong will generally try his best to arrange it if the villagers ask him for help as long as it does not involve anything illegal. Getting a pass is a piece of cake for him, so he should help. Zhang Yunqi ran to the public telephone booth and called Ji Zhong. Ji Zhong had given him his phone number before, and he had kept it in mind. He told him on the phone that he wanted to go to Shencun some time ago and needed a border pass. Ji Zhong asked him what he was doing in Shencun? Zhang Yunqi smiled and said let’s go play. Ji Zhong smiled and said he would call me in a few days. Zhang Yunqi said it was done. After hanging up the phone, he and Wang Xiaokai went to the bathhouse to take a shower. When they returned to the dormitory, there was no one there. Everyone had gone to the classroom for evening self-study. He packed up and was about to go to the classroom with Wang Xiaokai when he met three boys. Wang Xiaokai seemed to know them, but he didn't say hello, so Zhang Yunqi didn't take it seriously. Unexpectedly, after walking a few steps, three boys stopped him: "Hey, you are Zhang Yunqi from Class 168, right?" Zhang Yunqi asked, "What's the matter?" A tall and thin boy asked, "I heard you have a handheld Tetris game console for sale?" Zhang Yunqi nodded: "Yes, but there are only a few left. Hurry up if you want to buy one." The tall and thin boy said: "Give it to us to play with it first and see if it's fun. If it's fun, we'll buy it right away." Zhang Yunqi turned around and went back to his bed, took out three Tetris handheld consoles and a few batteries from his bag and handed them over. The three of them installed the batteries and started playing. Zhang Yunqi and Wang Xiaokai stood by and waited, but after waiting for more than ten minutes, the three boys were still playing intently and did not say whether to buy or not. It was getting late. If I were to be late for evening self-study, the acting monitor Lin Yueying would definitely mess around. Zhang Yunqi smiled and said to the three boys, "Sorry, guys, it's getting late. I'm waiting to go to evening self-study. Do you want this Tetris handheld game console?" The tall and thin boy looked up at Zhang Yunqi and continued playing Tetris, saying, "We can't tell how good it is yet. We need to try it out for a while. But since you're in a hurry to go to class, let's take it home tonight and try it out. If there's no problem with the quality, we'll come back to pay you in two days."
Zhang Yunqi smiled and said, "No, guys. I'm just doing small business. I only pay for the goods." The tall and thin boy snorted, stared at Zhang Yunqi with a bit of arrogance and said, "What are you talking about? Do you think we can't afford to pay for your handheld phone?!" Wang Xiaokai, who had been silent, could not help but said, "Zhou Qing, you can't play like this. If you want to buy something, just pay for it. We are all students. It's not easy to earn some pocket money. It's inappropriate to do these things and bully a freshman from another place, right?" The tall and thin boy also knew Wang Xiaokai. They were both in the middle school department of the No. 1 Middle School in the city, but it was obvious that they didn't have a good relationship. He said to Wang Xiaokai: "What does this have to do with you? Don't be so ungrateful. Go wherever you want." Wang Xiaokai was so angry that he rushed forward to fight with Zhou Qing. Zhang Yunqi was quick to stop him and said, "Don't be like this. We are all students." Zhang Yunqi really didn't want to make a big deal out of it. First, he was selling handheld games, which would have a bad impact. Second, fighting with students in school would have an even worse impact. If there were any problems, they could be dealt with after the military training was over. He turned his head and looked at the three boys, smiling and saying, "It's okay, we're all classmates, it's okay. If you're not sure about the quality of the handheld game, you can take it and try it out first." Wang Xiaokai was shocked! He looked at Zhang Yunqi in astonishment, and didn't react for a long time. What was Zhang Yunqi's attitude like? He was still a man with a penis! Zhou Qing was also a little surprised. He didn't expect this kid to be such a coward, but he quickly reacted. He happily patted Zhang Yunqi on the shoulder and said, "Okay, we'll leave first. If you have any problems in school in the future, you can come to me." Zhang Yunqi said "eh" and watched Zhou Qing and the other two leave. Back in the classroom for evening self-study, Zhang Yunqi said nothing. The following military training life was uneventful. He ate when he was supposed to and slept when he was supposed to, and never missed the training. It seemed that he had just swallowed his anger. Wang Xiaokai was very unhappy, but Zhang Yunqi acted indifferent. He thought it was inappropriate for the eunuch to be anxious when the emperor was not. But since then, Wang Xiaokai didn't want to pay attention to Zhang Yunqi. He felt that this man looked mature and experienced, but was timid and cowardly at the critical moment. He was a coward and very boring. There were a few boys in the dormitory that day. They witnessed the scene and couldn’t help but spread the news out of their gossip mood. All the classmates knew about it. I was selling handheld game consoles privately in school, but I was blackmailed by others and I didn't dare to say a word. Zhang Yunqi was completely humiliated. ****** (End of this chapter)
