Chapter 371 The whereabouts of the old friend
When he was free, Qin Di walked on the street to compare the changes in the Demon City around thirty years ago.
To be honest, in the past thirty years, the city of Demon City has not changed much, the streets are still the same, and there are not many newly built tall buildings. Because as a republic, the city of Demon City has too much pressure.
Before he knew it, he walked to Yu Garden and remembered Zhang Congyu, Zheng Zhenze, and Pang Laichen. These living faces appeared in front of him, but everyone was blown away by the rain and wind!
Afterwards, Qin Di left Yu Garden and continued to walk aimlessly, while walking, he used the method of seeing the sky and hearing the earth to integrate himself into the city of the Demon City.
Before he knew it, he came to an alley and reached out to knock on the door.
Soon the door opened and an old man with crutches came out.
When the old man saw Qin Di, he was shocked: "Sir, how could it be you? When did you come back?"
Qin Di smiled slightly: "Sun Sheng, you have not seen each other for thirty years, you have grown old!"
Sun Sheng was so excited that his eyes were filled with tears and said, "Sir, please come in, please come in and speak."
Qin Di walked in and found that the room was not big, with insufficient lighting, and it looked dim and cramped, but this was nothing, most people did this.
"Why is there no one at home?"
"The old woman is dead, I live with a son. All my family is out."
"How are your life doing these years?"
"It's been a few years and it's still good now."
"I remember when I left, I left you a few hundred taels of gold..."
"This...sir, I..." Sun Sheng lowered his voice and said, "I buried gold in the old house of that year. Later I left there, so gold may still be buried in its original place..."
Qin Di said: "How many grandsons do you have? Are there any outstanding people? Send someone to Hong Kong... I said back then that I left you a property in Hong Kong..."
When Sun Sheng heard this, he couldn't help but burst into tears: "This... sir, you are so kind and righteous... Among my children and grandchildren, it is hard to say that those who are capable are hard to say, and those who are filial can find one or two..."
"Did you hear about Li Chen's whereabouts later?"
"Oh, he's dead."
"How did you die?"
"Let's not say it anymore."
"Does he have descendants?"
"His son is dead, and only one girl is still alive, living..."
Qin Di said: "In a few years, I will prepare for a comeback and do some things in the Demon City. I need some locals who are familiar with the environment. At that time, let your grandson come and help me. Of course, you have to recommend reliable people, my eyes can see through people's hearts..."
Sun Sheng kept nodding: "I know, I know..."
Qin Di came out of the alley, walked to Zhabei District, and rang another family.
A young girl came out of the house, about eighteen years old, with a pretty face, and asked, "Who are you looking for?"
Qin Di said: "Is your grandfather called 'Li Chen'?"
The girl replied: "Yes, but he has passed away for a long time."
Qin Di said: "Then I'll look for your mother, is she at home?"
"Here, sir, your surname is yours."
"My surname is Qin, and I am an acquaintance of your grandfather."
The girl smiled and said, "How could you know my grandfather so young? Don't tease me!"
Qin Di smiled slightly and said, "Well, ask your mother, did you leave anything when my grandfather died? Do you know if you know a person named Qin? If she didn't know, I'll go back."
"Then you wait a moment." The girl closed the door and turned around and walked in.
After a moment of pause, the door opened again. A woman in her forties appeared at the door, looking at Qin Di up and down, showing a look of surprise, and said, "Are you a person sent by the Qin family? Mr. Qin Di, are you still alive?"
Qin Di smiled and said, "I am Qin Di. But I am not that old."
The woman found it unbelievable, but she still took two steps back and said, "Please come in and talk. Xiaofeng, go and make tea."
"Oh," the girl agreed to go to the kitchen.
"Please sit down, the house is simple and makes you laugh."
Qin Di sat down on a shaking Grand Master chair and asked, "When your father was dying, he mentioned the name Qin Di to you? Did he say anything else?"
The woman said, "It's been many years since this happened, and I'm not afraid of you laughing at me when I say it. My father walked outside for a day, his face was pale and panting. When he came back, he told me something and jumped to the Huangpu River the next day. I remember he told me to go to Hong Kong one day to find a gentleman named 'Qin Di'. As for why he was looking for him, my father didn't say it."
Qin Di sighed and said, "What do you call me? Who else is there in the family?"
The woman said, "My name is 'Li Xian', and my man's surname is Chen. He only has one son and one daughter. His daughter is 'Chen Fengfei', and he is in his third year of high school this year. His son is 'Chen Pengfei', and he is still in his second year of junior high school."
Qin Di said: "Your father worked for me for many years back then. I promised him to help him take care of future generations. I remember that when he left, he left him 500 taels of gold. Did he mention this?"
Li Xian was shocked and shook her head and said, "No, he never said it! Or was it taken away by someone else? That's why he jumped into the river?"
Qin Di said: "I won't talk about the past. People should look forward."
He took out an envelope, put it on the table, and said, "Your girl is good. When she finishes college, come to my company to work. I will have someone to take care of her."
Li Xian thought to herself: "College graduates can be assigned to the distribution and can be a state cadre, how can I go to a private enterprise? Besides, if you suddenly jump out, how do I know who you are? Could you let me cheat my girl away?"
And more importantly, she always felt that the young man in front of her could not get involved with "Old Mr. Qin Di"! Perhaps this person was Mr. Qin's grandson?
Qin Di didn't say much, and didn't even drink saliva, so he got up and left.
Li Fengfei walked out of the kitchen and said, "Mom, who is this person? Judging from his clothes, they are very well-made and seem to be not an ordinary person."
Li Xian said: "I don't know, I'm still confused."
Li Fengfei picked up the envelope from the table and opened it. There was a beautifully made piece of paper with a few lines of words on it.
"Mom, what is this? It feels good to touch."
When Li Xian saw it, she suddenly shook her body: "This is a check from Citibank! When I was young, I followed your grandfather and saw this thing! It says... 20,000 US dollars? Oh my God, is this true?"
"Mom, let me see, let me see... This is how bank checks are? Mom, how much is the 20,000 US dollars?"
"I don't know... I have to take it to the bank to ask..."
"Mom, I'll go with you."
"Bring your household registration book!"
They went to the nearby Industrial and Commercial Bank of China. The bank staff was also surprised to read the checks and called them in a small room. Then several people came in one go, and even the branch president came. After some verification, they finally told them: "This kind of large check cannot be withdrawn at once. It takes three days to get the RMB."
Li Xian asked: "How much RMB can I exchange for?"
"Currently, the US dollar is 1.496 yuan to RMB, so these can be exchanged for almost 30,000 yuan."
Both mother and daughter's hearts jumped up with a "bang".
This year, the average monthly work in the Magic City is 65 yuan! It is only 780 yuan a year! 30,000 yuan is equivalent to working for 38 years without eating or drinking!
"Mom, that Mr. Qin is so generous! Why did he give us so much money? Will there be any consequences? Do we dare to spend this money?"
The mother and daughter were worried about gains and losses, and returned home in a daze.
For Qin Di, he is responsible for Li Chen's death. This is a life, what is 20,000 US dollars?
Qin Di also remembered the real estate manager Zhang Bin. There were two real estate managers in the Magic City back then, one was Youlong and the other was Zhang Bin. He wanted to know if Zhang Bin was still alive, but he used the methods of seeing and hearing the earth, but he could not find any clues about this person. Later, he simply went to the Public Security Bureau to ask about the whereabouts of the man, but was told that the man had moved his family to the Great Northern Wilderness.
