Qiankan Village, Jianghua City.
At dawn on the 12th of July, Wang Fengzhi woke up early and went to make breakfast as usual. When she passed by Qin Jin's bedroom, she tiptoed and was careful not to wake her precious grandson. As a grandmother, Wang Fengzhi knew that Qin Jin had lost a lot of weight recently, so she wanted him to sleep well and recover.
Although Grandma didn't want to disturb her sleeping grandson, Qin Jin, who was used to waking up early, woke up soon. He also tiptoed and quietly carried two bamboo baskets out…Half an hour later, Grandma Wang Fengzhi knocked on Qin Jin's bedroom door, but no one answered. Just as she was about to push it open, a shout came from the courtyard."Grandpa! Grandma! I'm back."
Wang Fengzhi couldn't understand it no matter how hard he thought about it. He stuck his head out with a puzzled expression and looked into the courtyard. He saw a person carrying two baskets of grass for pigs to eat and standing there motionlessly.
"It's very heavy, right? Quick... Put it down!" Grandma asked with concern for her grandson.
Wang Fengzhi followed the two baskets of grass. When the bamboo baskets stopped steadily beside the pigsty, she said again," Qin Jin won't allow you to do manual labor this summer. You have to rest well. You've lost a lot of weight. How sad will your parents be if they find out?!"”
Qin Jin quickly changed the sad topic." Grandma, this grass is really not heavy for me. I'm really fine."”
"Jin 'er, wash your face and come to the kitchen for breakfast. Grandma has cooked your favorite carrots for breakfast.”
"Where's Grandpa? Why didn't he see his grandfather? I'll go find Grandpa to wash my face."
"You! Wash your face quickly. Your grandfather is weeding in the back of the house. I'll call him now!”
"Oh."
......
"Who else could it be? Of course, it's your precious grandson, Qin Jin.”
"Oh, that's good! You're sensible now. You know how to share our burdens. Not bad, not bad!”
"You're still talking? Have you noticed that Qin Jin has lost weight recently?”
"You're still the most attentive. I didn't notice, but it should be fine for young people to be a little thinner.”
Qin Jin listened to the old couple's endless conversation and had an idea.'The food is cold.'
The family of three fell silent and rushed to the dining table.
......
Country Z's Core Committee Residence.
Today was a sunny day. The slightly hot sunlight covered the flowers, trees, tall buildings, and so on around the encampment with a golden coat.
At 8:30 pm, someone knocked on the office door of Deputy Leader Han.
"Report!"
"Who is it?"
"Vice Leader Han, I am Yang Dekai.”
"Please come in."
"Kekeke…" The sound of leather shoes rubbing against the floor stopped in front of a simple desk.
What appeared in front of Yang Dekai was a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties who was holding a newspaper in his hand. He wore glasses and had a crew cut. He was wearing a military uniform and was leaning against a dilapidated mahogany chair. His name was Han Youming.
"Secretary Yang, good morning! Any news from the military?"
"Oh, then why are you here so early?”
"Deputy Leader Han, I didn't sleep well last night because of one thing.”
"Secretary Yang, are you trying to make me feel better? Say it, I hate this kind of words that have no end. Otherwise, you might as well not say it.”the middle-aged officer said straightforwardly.
"This... This…"
Han Youming saw that the other party was suppressed by his power, so he softened his tone." Secretary Yang, come, come, sit beside me. We're not in a hurry. Let's have a cup of tea and talk slowly."”
This move was indeed useful. Yang Dekai, who was usually eloquent and talkative, calmed down and said,"What does Vice Leader Han think of me?”
Han Youming, who had always been busy with work, really did not give any evaluation to this capable general in front of him. He casually replied,"You're a good person! You're capable and dedicated to your country and your job. I didn't misjudge you when I transferred you over from the National Defense Department!”
"Thank you for the compliment! Vice Leader Han is wise!"
The other party's expression became serious as he said sternly,"Yang Dekai, you just have to work hard. There's no need to curry favor. We're comrades and we're all serving the prosperity and stability of Country Z.”
"Alright, just tell me what you're here for!”
"Nothing can be hidden from the Bureau Chief." Feeling the pressure, Yang Dekai wiped the sweat off his forehead and said,"Chief, I have a feeling that something is not right about the matter in Jiang Hua.”
Han Youming smiled with interest and said,"Tell me?"
Yang Dekai opened his mouth wide as he seriously expressed his thoughts,"According to our intelligence, Qin Jin scored 738 points in the college entrance examination, ranking first in the city. According to the local people's thoughts, they would have gone to Jinghua University if they had the conditions, but he applied to the National Defense University of Liangjian. Even if he was willing to accept it, even if he accepted it; Then the plane crash was another heavy blow. He, who had been doing well in the college entrance examination, fell into grief for the entire summer vacation.”
The dignified Han Youming had tears in his eyes, but he quickly calmed down and wiped his tears. He stood up calmly and replied,"Xiao Yang, you put yourself in Qin Jin's shoes. I thank you on his behalf! "Today, I have two things to tell you. First, just a week ago, I signed off on the admission score of the National Defense University of Liangjian sent by the Ministry of Education. It was set at 683 points, only six points lower than the admission score of Jinghua. This way, even if Qin Jin scored 738 points, it would not be so unfair. Secondly, Qin Jin was the top scorer in the city for the cultural examination and the champion of the martial arts competition. If a talent like him was guided into the army, would it be beneficial to the construction of the army?”
Yang Dekai was so excited that he started crying, choking as he said,"But is Qin Jin willing? That would affect his personal happiness!”
Secretary Yang, who was in his early thirties, forced himself to stop crying. However, he could not stop trembling. Even though he was trembling, he still nodded repeatedly to confirm the Bureau Chief's words.
It seemed like it had been a long time since Vice Leader Han had hugged a junior, so he walked to Xiao Yang's side and hugged him tightly. From time to time, he patted his shoulder and muttered,"As soldiers, protecting the country is the most important thing. Qin Jin was born with a love for martial arts, so I think he also likes to join the army.”
Yang Dekai saw that the leader's embrace had weakened and he had randomly pulled away. There were some words that he had to say, so he could only bite the bullet and say,"Vice Leader Han, why did you change your name? Why don't you acknowledge Qin Jin?”
After Han Youming heard it, he said thoughtfully,"I keep this matter a secret. I don't tell ordinary people. You asked me today, alright! I'll tell you." He swallowed and continued,""The first is that I changed my name so that I can cut ties with Jiang Hua's family. I don't have to worry about anything and can work better. Of course, some of my enemies can't find my family. The second is that Qin Jin has been intelligent since he was a child. He has both civil and martial arts skills. It can be said that his IQ and comprehension are definitely okay. The only thing I'm worried about is his will. I'll try my best to lure him to the army for training. It's good for the country and myself to nurture a good seedling like him. Now, letting him suffer a little was to temper his will. The continuous attacks and tempering would forge a good sword like forging a sword!”
The secretary became even more respectful to the Bureau Chief in front of him after hearing that!
Before the secretary could finish, the other party said,"No way! The guards of 'Flying Dragon in the Sky' belong to the country, and all 18 of them are top-notch masters. How can I, Qin Tianming, use them for my son? Besides, Qin Jin's martial arts competition is a casual fight between the people. There won't be any danger. After all, I have confidence in his martial arts!”
Yang Dekai asked," How does Qin Jin's martial arts compare to yours?”
"It would be difficult for him to even take ten moves from me with his current mediocre martial arts. However, I will take the opportunity to teach him a little when he reaches the Beautiful Sword Realm. When he has mastered it, we will have a good spar!”
"High, high, really high…"
Vice Leader Han coughed twice, and Yang Dekai immediately became serious after hearing it, not daring to be presumptuous.
Seeing that the secretary had become obedient, Han Youming said indifferently,"Let nature take its course in their competition. We'll do our job well, understand?”
"Reporting to the chief, I understand!"
Han Youming waved his right hand to signal the secretary to leave. When the secretary saw it, she nodded and rushed out of the office to close the door.
At this moment, there was only one person left in the room. He muttered to himself,"Qin Jin! Qin Jin, Mom and Dad had their reasons for doing this! When the country is strong, I will tell you everything. Separating from you now is the best protection for you! I hope I can get your understanding when the time comes!”
......
Qin Jin, who was in Qiankan Village, had breakfast with his grandparents. He saw his grandfather weeding in the backyard while his grandmother washed the dishes in the kitchen. He couldn't stay idle either. He kept looking around the house, trying to find something to do. With his sharp eyes, he saw that the water tank in the kitchen was almost dry. Without saying a word, he carried the water bucket to the well and stretched his head to the well to take a look. He was shocked when he saw it. It turned out that the water level in the well was more than 10 meters deep. Qin Jin immediately thought of how difficult it was for his grandmother to wash clothes and cook at home. Even getting water was so difficult.
Suddenly, Qin Jin felt ashamed, because sometimes he would be very unhappy when he ate vegetables that Grandma had added salt twice, and he would even complain about it! Now that she thought about it, she was really insensible!
Qin Jin slowly lowered the empty bucket into the well through the rope. When there was only half a meter left on the rope, he felt something pressing against the bottom of the bucket. He immediately pulled the rope to the left, and the sound of water waves traveled from the well to the mouth of the well. The rope in his hand felt like it was falling."The water is full, that's great…Let's go." The rope coiled around the well again and again. Finally, he poured all the water in the bucket into the bucket. After walking for dozens of meters, he poured the water from the bucket into the big water tank. Qin Jin repeated these actions foolishly several times. Although it was very difficult to draw water, he still smiled happily when he saw the big water tank gradually fill up. Hard work paid off. After about 20 minutes of Qin Jin's hard work, the big monster's cyst-like water tank was finally filled with water.
Qin Jin put the three empty buckets back in their original positions, put his hands on his waist, stuck out his long tongue, and panted heavily. Qin Jin, who often scored full marks in math, physics, and chemistry, wiped his sweat and scratched his head. A light flashed in his eyes as he said excitedly,""It's so tiring to fetch water. Why don't you do it like this?”Thus, he began to implement a secret plan.
In the next few days, some changes happened under Qin Jin's bed. At first, there were leather tubes and used bicycle tooth plates, then glue, small wooden boards, and finally iron sheets, nails, and other materials. After all the materials were ready, he went to Gou Qin's house next door to borrow a hammer, pliers, a screwdriver, a saw, and other common tools.
After two and a half days of assembly, a manually movable water pump was born in Qiankan Village of Jianghua. Qin Jin demonstrated it in front of his grandparents. As expected, water flowed into the big water tank from the pipe. Originally, it would take more than 20 minutes to fill a tank, but now, with this very old-fashioned monster-like pump, it would take at most 10 minutes to fill it.
Qin Zaifa looked at the machine that Qin Jin had assembled. He scratched his head desperately and said with shame," Why can't I do it?" If he had made this monster earlier, he wouldn't have been so tired from fetching water in the past!”
"Grandpa, this is not a monster. This is a mobile manual water pump. It's made according to the principles of physics.”
"Alright, I can't do it, but it's the same if my grandson can do it. Haha!”
Just as Qin Jin and his grandson were laughing happily, Wang Fengzhi sighed and said,"Qin Jin is so smart. How great would it be if he could get into Jinghua University!”
The whole family fell silent.
