But when I watched those crickets – after keeping them for a few days, they would become listless and lose their fighting strength, which really frustrated me. Once, on a whim, I gave a male cricket several females to keep together, and as a result I ended up with a true champion cricket; it was unbeatable throughout the whole town! Hehe, from that summer and autumn on, it seemed like I spent every day carrying a few crickets in containers, looking for people to fight against. Since this cricket king was good at biting and fighting, I got to know quite a few people – workers in their 30s, 40s, 50s, as well as some mischievous kids who lived in the railway workshops. One of them took me to eat some delicious lamb noodles, and another even gave me a cigarette! There was a snow-white crane on the cigarette pack. What’s even more alarming is that once I met an old man; after the cricket fighting match, as I was walking down the road, he called me over and offered me 10 yuan to buy my cricket champion. Back in those days, a bowl of large dumplings cost 0.23 yuan, and a bowl of lamb stewed with noodles cost 0.3 yuan… 10 yuan! That was a whole lot of money back then! My hand kept stretching out and then pulling back, several times over, but in the end I still didn’t sell my cricket champion. The reason I didn’t sell it was because the sun was setting, and the twilight was getting darker. When I thought about selling my cricket champion, I wondered what would happen to its mates, and my heart felt painful, as if it were being bitten by insects :lol At that time, I didn’t realize that crickets couldn’t survive through the winter. And so, I missed out on my first chance to make some money in life. . . And life is like a cricket – only when you have a wife do you gain combat strength. This scientific truth was discovered by me, haha{:3_51:}.
