Rebirth in 1958: Getting rich starts from Nanluoguxiang
Chapter 14: Martial Arts Master
This breakfast almost made him cry, it tasted amazing!
After breakfast, he bought ten meat buns. They were called meat buns, but they were actually stuffed with cabbage residue. However, they were large in size and rich in ingredients. Lao Du, who ran a breakfast stall, was an expert at making buns. Unfortunately, a few years later, a big storm came and Master Du was demoted to a small business owner and sent back to his hometown, so he could never eat this bun again.
The hot meat buns were wrapped in oil paper, put into the schoolbag, and then transferred into the space.
Qin Dabao didn't buy the buns for himself, he wanted to go see the master who taught him Bajiquan.
His master's surname was Tong, and he was also the father of his bad friend Tong Dapeng. If Tong Dapeng had not persuaded him to go winter swimming in his previous life, he would not have been reborn.
It’s quite interesting to think about it. The winter swimming in both the previous life and this life was initiated by Tong Dapeng. He has been friends with this bad friend for a lifetime.
Master Tong is no ordinary man. His name is Tong Wenying. He is a descendant of the Eight Banners, belonging to the Plain White Banner, and his Manchu surname is Tonggiya.
Tong Wenying did not have a good time. He was born in the Republic of China and his family had already fallen on hard times. However, Tong Wenying had been fond of martial arts since he was a child. He was a disciple of the sharpshooter Li Shuwen, and his Bajiquan skills were invincible in Beijing and Tianjin.
When they were almost at the courtyard where the Tong family lived, Qin Dabao found a deserted place and took out a piece of meat weighing more than 20 kilograms, 20 kilograms of rice, and 20 kilograms of flour from the space. He carried them in both hands and walked into the courtyard of the Tong family.
The courtyard house where the Tong family lived was a two-courtyard house. It was originally the Tong family's own house. Later, five more families from the street moved in, and it became a slum.
Fortunately, the Tong family of five lived in a separate backyard. Qin Dabao knew that after the big storm came, three more families moved into the Tong family's backyard, which almost drove Tong Wenying and her husband to death due to anger and frustration.
It was not until the late 1980s that Qin Dabao used his connections in the Municipal Bureau to drive out the other residents of this courtyard house, and the courtyard was returned to the three brothers Tong Dapeng.
As soon as Qin Dabao entered the courtyard, three aunties who were chatting in the front yard saw him. They surrounded him immediately and looked at the big piece of pork with their saliva almost dripping.
"Wow, this piece of pork is good, all fat. It's about 20 pounds, right?"
"Young man, your last name is Qin, right? Well, can you negotiate and sell me two kilograms?"
"Yes, my child always plays with you guys. Let me make a deal. Sell some to me. I'll pay 1.2 yuan per pound. How about that?"
"I'll give you one dollar and three cents."
In the past six months, Qin Dabao practiced martial arts almost every day at Tong's house, and several aunts knew him.
Qin Dabao was almost mad at the words of the old ladies. He dodged the three aunts' hands that were grabbing the meat.
"Shut up! Who dares to sell anything? Get out of here!"
Hearing Qin Dabao's scolding, the three old women shuddered. They were so busy taking advantage that they forgot that personal transactions are now prohibited. If they were caught, they would be sent to study classes at the very least and sentenced to prison at the worst.
The three of them didn't dare to bother Qin Dabao anymore and could only stare at him with resentment.
Qin Dabao knew them very well. These three old ladies, with their families, still occupied the Tong family's house and refused to return it after other people moved out.
They were the ones who indirectly forced Master Tong and his wife to death.
Qin Dabao glanced at them sideways, and this even colder look made the three women shudder. In Qin Dabao's heart, they and their families were already on the blacklist, and he must find an opportunity to clear these three families out of the capital.
When we arrived at the backyard, Mrs. Tong was hanging clothes. Her old long gown and jacket were no longer wearable and had been given to a clothes dealer a long time ago. Now she had changed into a black cotton jacket and wide-legged cotton trousers.
"Master's wife..." Qin Dabao was a little excited when he saw Master's wife again. Master's wife was very nice to him.
"Dabao is here, kid, why do you have so many things?"
"I haven't come to see you and Master for a few days. I went back to my hometown yesterday and hunted a wild boar. Here I got some meat for Dafang and Xiaoguihua to satisfy their cravings."
"You, child, are righteousness."
The two were talking in the yard when the door curtain was lifted and Tong Wenying came out of the house.
Tong Wenying is not tall, maybe even short, but she has a straight and upright figure and looks very strong.
When Qin Dabao saw this, he quickly put down what he was holding, took a step forward, knelt on one knee and kowtowed. This was the custom of the Bannermen, which was listed as a feudal remnant after the founding of the People's Republic of China and had long been abandoned. However, Tong Wenying still attached great importance to it. Perhaps this was the last dignity in the bones of the Eight Banners descendants...
Tong Wenying laughed heartily. He had accepted six disciples in his life. In terms of aptitude and comprehension, this little disciple was the best. Unfortunately, he started practicing martial arts too late, and his body had not grown up yet, so he did not make much progress.
Tong Wenying held the pipe in one hand and supported Qin Dabao with the other. Qin Dabao didn't move at all. Tong Wenying exclaimed in surprise: "Huh?"
Although he only used a third of his strength, it was already incredible.
Tong Wenying put in some effort, and Qin Dabao was able to stand up. This was also because Qin Dabao was competitive and wanted to see how much strength he could withstand from his master.
Tong Wenying is a martial arts fanatic. He usually doesn't care about the housework outside or at home, and is only obsessed with martial arts. If it weren't for Tong's wife embroidering and making clothes for others to make a living, the family would have starved to death long ago. This is the bad nature of the Bannermen.
"Come, come," Master Tong pulled Qin Dabao to the middle of the yard: "Let's help each other." He wanted to test Qin Dabao's kung fu.
Mrs. Tong sighed and shook her head, then carried the rice, flour and meat into the house with difficulty.
Master Tong's youngest son Tong Dafang and youngest daughter Guihua ran out to watch the fun.
Qin Dabao knew his master's temper and did not refuse. The two of them started fighting. Master Tong was surprised and praised him repeatedly. He did not expect that after just a few days of not seeing each other, this little apprentice had made such great progress that he could even use 70% of his strength.
The two of them were so engrossed in the fight that they forgot about time and only stopped when Master Tong's wife came out and called them to stop.
Master Tong came into the room still immersed in the fight just now. Qin Dabao knew his master's problem, so he ignored him and chatted with his master's wife.
Tong Dafang and Xiao Guihua are twins, a boy and a girl, only seven years old. They are very close to Qin Dabao, and they snuggle up to Qin Dabao's legs, one on each side.
Qin Dabao played with them for a while before he remembered that he hadn't seen his bad friend Tong Dapeng.
"Master's wife, where is Dapeng?"
"I went out with Qiu'er and the others yesterday. They said they were going to Mentougou and wouldn't be back for half a day."
Qin Dabao was speechless. This Tong Dapeng was just like in his previous life, he only knew how to play.
"Dabao, have you got any news about your work?"
Qin Dabao nodded: "I have it figured out, I'm still waiting for news."
He knew that the Municipal Public Security Bureau would recruit a group of people after the New Year, but the recruitment conditions were very harsh, with strict requirements on height, age, education level, and especially political review.
The master's wife hesitated to speak. Qin Dabao knew what she meant, but Tong Dapeng's family background was too poor for him to pass the political review.
However, Qin Dabao knew that his friend had lived until 66. Because he had no job, he had to go to the countryside as an educated youth. At that time, he and his younger brother went to the Heilongjiang Construction Corps to repair the earth. He did not return to the city until 78. Unfortunately, Master Tong and his wife had passed away for many years at that time. Even Dafang and Xiao Guihua were raised by him.
Qin Dabao knew very well that his master was completely incapable of supporting his family. The only way to change the family's fate was to give Tong Dapeng a formal job.
Tong Dapeng has a good personality, he is cheerful and optimistic, and likes making friends, but he is too playful, which is exactly what he inherited from his father.
"Master's wife, don't worry, I will do my best to help Dapeng find a job."
Mrs. Tong nodded silently.
Qin Dabao stayed for a while and then said goodbye. He said goodbye to his master, but the master waved his hand and didn't pay any attention to him. He just muttered softly: "Impossible, how could this kid's physique change? Impossible..."
Qin Dabao suppressed his laughter and rubbed Xiao Guihua's hair. Of course, he couldn't tell his master that it was because he drank the spiritual well water in the space...
