Chapter 41: Fools Have Fool's Luck

  When he returned to the familiar high school gate again, Xuan Qi's emotions had calmed down. Since his rebirth a week ago, he had gone from initial excitement and enthusiasm to gradual adaptation.

  Xuan Qi understood that his fate had finally been changed by himself. The originally supposed to be a miserable and mediocre life would no longer repeat itself.

  Every day from now on will be a new beginning. It's a new life and also a new challenge.

  Stepping into the campus of Xuanqi, with great ambition and a heart full of longing.

  "My two hands will create a new future for me."

  Just as Xuan Qi hummed a tune and walked into the dormitory, he found that the dormitory was still in a messy state, with plastic bags and various miscellaneous items and books scattered all over the place.

  The entire dormitory was like it had suffered a great disaster.

  "What the...?!" He couldn't help but be shocked at the sight of Xuan Qi. He hadn't expected that just a few days of his absence would turn their dormitory into such a mess.

  Xuan Qi quickly put down his luggage and prepared to sweep the dormitory. Although the dormitory environment was poor, as long as Xuan Qi was there, he would still try to keep the place clean.

  In his words, if one can't even keep their living space clean, what's the difference between being human and being a pig.

  Just then, Liang Zimo rushed in and saw Xuan Qi holding a basin of water. He patted his shoulder heavily and said: "Xuanzi, you finally deigned to return? I thought you were missing!"

  Xuan Qi put down the basin and returned a punch to Liang Zimo: "If I ran away, wouldn't it be absconding with funds? Those 200,000 yuan of yours, aren't they gone down the drain?"

  Liang Zimo smiled and said, "We've been together for so long, I know you're not that kind of person. Besides, it's just 200,000 yuan, what's the big deal? Even if you can't pay it back, it doesn't matter, anyway, you'll definitely have a son in the future, and he can inherit your debt, leave it for him to pay back..."

  "You're thinking too far ahead!"

  Xuan Qi shook his head and said, "You're a cunning creditor, aren't you? You've set your sights on my son. Unfortunately, I'm still single, unlike you who gets to live a carefree life with your girlfriend, enjoying each other's company every day. It's really enviable."

  Li Zimo said, "Don't spread rumors here. When did I ever have a romantic relationship with Xiaoli? My relationship with her is pure and platonic. To this day, I've only held her hand and kissed her on the mouth..."

  Xuan Qi only then remembered that this was the high school era, and at that time, the social atmosphere was still relatively conservative. Things like pre-marital pregnancy or "getting on the bus first and buying a ticket later" rarely happened in those days.

  Like most high school students, they are still single-mindedly focused on studying hard and striving to get into college together, rather than romantic relationships.

  In this era, high schools are also very strict about early love affairs. If discovered, it is likely that you will be called to summon your parents, and there is even a possibility of being criticized or expelled from school.

  It's like the relationship between Liang Zimo and his girlfriend Yang Xiaoli, which is also very pure.

  Although Liang Zimo has always wanted to break through the relationship with Yang Xiaoli, Yang Xiaoli has always insisted on the bottom line and does not allow him to take advantage of it.

  Li Zimo's high school years were quite colorful, he had changed girlfriends several times and earned a reputation as a charming ladies' man.

  But in his words, he didn't catch any fish and instead got a mouthful of muddy water.

  However, every time he finds Xuan Qi to complain, he will always bring Xuan Qi's disdain. In Xuan Qi's view, this is just one of his flirtatious forms.

  This behavior is unacceptable for the innocent Xuan Qi.

  "Alright, stop bragging about your conquests in front of me." Xuan Qi said as he took out a stack of money from his luggage and handed it to Liang Zi Mo: "Count it, 40,000 yuan."

  Liang Zimo didn't think much of Xuan Qi's words about borrowing 20,000 and returning 40,000 when he lent him the money. Now, seeing this stack of cash, his eyes widened in surprise: "I say, Qi Zi, did you rob a bank or what? How did you come up with so much money all at once? What kind of business are you doing? Tell me about it!"

  Looking at the stack of money in front of him, Liang Zimo's eyes lit up.

  Xuan Qi lightly said: "Nothing, just went to buy an antique and then resold it, making a bit of money."

  "How much is one point?"

  Liang Zimo smelled the stack of money that still had a hint of humor and said, "This kind of business is indeed easy to do, borrowing 200,000 and reselling it for 400,000, what a profitable deal."

  At this time, he didn't hesitate either, and directly took the 40,000 yuan. He knew that with his relationship with Xuan Qi, there was no need to be polite.

  If something happens to Xuan Qi and he gets into trouble or needs money, he won't just stand by and do nothing, he will definitely lend a helping hand.

  Li saw Liang Zimo very curious, Xuan Qi described the eighty million yuan he had checked and leaked.

  "You're unbeatable, I didn't expect you to be so amazing, earning 800,000 yuan in one go. This business, let me calculate, is equivalent to a 40-fold increase, this is too incredible. It seems that my little doubling of interest is really nothing compared to this."

  Xuan Qi nodded and said: "If it weren't for your 20,000, I wouldn't have made so much money either. To say the least, you've made a great contribution here. Thank you!"

  Liang Zimo as Xuan Qi's best friend in this life has always given Xuan Qi a lot of help. For him, Xuan Qi is very grateful.

  Xuan Qi's polite gesture made Liang Zi Mo somewhat unaccustomed. Looking at Xuan Qi's slightly genuine expression, Liang Zi Mo was puzzled and said: "When did you become so polite? You making a fortune has nothing to do with me, it's just that you have good eyesight. Besides, I've already earned double the interest, which is even more profitable than usury. I've decided, let's go eat together later. How about it, today we won't leave until we're drunk?"

  Xuan Qi worriedly said: "Still going out to drink and not attending classes? If you get caught by Old Zhang, you'll have to ask your dad to bail you out again."

  Xiangling No. 1 High School is the best key high school in Xiangling City, with a long history of ranking top in college entrance examination results. The academic atmosphere here is very strict, and there are few unhealthy tendencies.

  The head of teaching at Yizhong, Zhang Zhengcai, is known as the Black-Faced Yanluo, a ruthless and cruel man. No matter which student falls into his hands, they will not get any good treatment.

  Like Liang Zimo, he has already been asked by his parents many times.

  However, Liang Zimo is an athlete and doesn't need to worry too much about his academic grades. His father, Liang Wengen, is also the owner of a gold mine and has donated a lot of money to the school.

  Talking about Liang Zimo's father, Liang Wengen, he is also a legendary figure. At that time, his family had only three thatched cottages, and he couldn't recognize a single character, so poor that they didn't even have pants to wear, wearing a pair of large underpants in summer and wrapping a broken sheepskin in winter. This situation lasted for many years.

  Liáng Wěngēn's life was very bitter, he had no food to eat from one meal to the next, and could only go work as a miner. In other people's eyes, if he wasn't going to die in a mining accident then he would surely die of exhaustion, this lifetime was already doomed to be unable to turn his fate around. In others' views, not to mention getting rich, even marrying a wife and having children to carry on the family line were probably impossible for him to accomplish.

  However, fools have good luck. Liang Wengen went to dig for ore and unexpectedly discovered an abandoned gold mine vein. He found that there might be a gold mine vein here. Before, people had excavated several times but did not find any gold there, so they gave up excavation. Later, he spent some money to buy the abandoned mine vein and started re-excavation. He just adjusted the excavation direction slightly, moved the position of the hole by tens of centimeters, and the result was completely different.

  People only then discovered that this was a rich mine, with many high-grade gold ore inside. As a result, he immediately turned over as a serf and sang songs, making a fortune.

  Later, Liang Wengen bought several more gold mines and gradually expanded his business, becoming a well-known gold mine owner in the surrounding area.

  During this period, Liang Wengen married and had a child, and had a lovely son named Liang Zimo.

  Because Liang Wengen didn't recognize a single character, he suffered many losses while doing business. Therefore, he named his son Zi Mo, hoping that he could drink more ink.

  However, Liang Zimo is similar to Liang Wengen, very active and not born to be a bookworm. Although Liang Wengen hired many tutors for him and sent him to a key middle school, it didn't change anything.

  From a young age, whenever Liang Zimo got into trouble, Liang Wengen would have to go to school to receive criticism and education. At first, he was still angry, but later he became numb.

  Anyway, Liang Wengen paved the way with money, making Liang Zimo's learning path relatively smooth.

  Liang Zimo pointed to the pile of books under Xuan Qi's bed and said, "Have you forgotten? The college entrance exam is just around the corner. Look, everyone has packed their bags and gone home to review. What are you still cleaning up for? Hurry up and sell your study materials, prepare to go home! With so many materials, I estimate you can sell them for a lot of money. I reckon it's worth several tens of yuan."

  "Right, the college entrance exam is coming up."

  Xuan Qi suddenly remembered that it was already graduation season for high school seniors. Looking at the pile of materials under his bed, he couldn't help but think of a joke from the internet in later generations.

  "We spent a sack of money on education, and got a sack of books in return; after graduation, we used these books to make money, but couldn't even afford a sack!"

  Upon hearing Xuan Qi say that, Liang Zi Mo burst out laughing and said: "Look at you, your words are quite impressive, I've got to remember them and tell my dad, so he'll stop nagging me to study, it's really annoying."

  Xuan Qi took out the books from under the bed, picked a useful one and put the rest in a sack with Liang Zi Mo, saying: "Books are meant to be read, university is a must. Think of the beautiful girls at university, you'll have motivation then. With your level, when you get to university, it's definitely going to be awesome!"

  When Liang Zimo heard Xuan Qi say that, his eyes lit up with excitement and he said: "Must be, when the time comes, you go to whatever school, I'll go to whatever school, and then we can form a group together. When we get to university, we'll still be an iron-clad duo, how about it?"

  Xuan Qi slapped palms with Liang Zi Mo and said: "Alright, when the time comes, we'll go to university together! Good buddies, won't be separated!"
