Chapter 116 Buying Life
Zhou Zhi also stood up: "You said I helped you enough, what exactly did I help you with? We just got along well when we chatted, we were buddies, and we just lived and ate together during the holidays. . ”
“If this is called ganging, then when I go to your house, it’s not the same thing. Is that so?”
“You think I can know how to work hard now if I don’t use you as a role model?”
“You think I can just go to the provincial TV station to impress you? Sister Chi? How can I impress the old director?”
"They were impressed by you! They hope you can study hard and spend all your energy on studying!"
"Do you want me to write to them today to tell them that you are still here during the holidays? Selling dirt in the afternoon sun?"
"No!" Yang He's face changed: "You can't. Tell Sister Chi about this!"
"You still do this if you know it's not possible?" Zhou Zhi said, "It's your pride that's causing the problem."
"I admit that having self-respect is a good thing. , but everything has two sides. When it comes to self-esteem, it depends on who you talk to and what you talk about. ”
"You talk to me about self-esteem? Talk about self-esteem to my mother? Talk about self-esteem to Sister Hu and Principal Zhao? Talk about self-esteem to Sister Chi and the old station director? Talk about self-esteem to all those people who sincerely wish you well?"
" We hope that one day you can stand alone in front of your destiny and proudly declare that I finally won! You lose after all!"
"That's what you say! The object of self-respect! I tell you, the place we stand is behind you, not in front of you!"
"Tell us about your little self-esteem! "
Seeing the blame and distress on Zhou Zhi's face, Yang He finally gave in: "Elbow...I...I was wrong, I will go back with you right now!"
"Go and say hello to everyone first. I think they take good care of you." Zhou Zhi smiled and said, "You're doing pretty well, right? The foreman even helped you make up for it, and the workers even gave you cigarettes to relieve your fatigue."
"It seems that you have gained a lot of friendship here."
"They are all good people and did not bully me." Yang He also smiled: "Then I will go and tell Liu Tou and Uncle Li."
Yang He ran towards the snack stall. He said a few words to the men and pointed to Zhou Zhi.
The men seemed very happy and smiled and waved to Zhou Zhi.
Zhou Zhi also waved to them, and then he saw the man from before grabbed Yang He who was trying to run back, took the cigarette out of his ear, cursed a few words, and gave him a hard slap on the butt. hand.
Zhou Zhi praised secretly in his heart - good fight!
Back home, grandma was shocked when she saw the two of them: "Oh! You two got through the stove door and came back? Why is it so black that it looks like carbon dioxide?!"
Yang He smiled sheepishly at his grandmother: "Grandma, I'm back again."
Grandma stopped sewing and said: "Soak the seagrass with Kuding Panghai. You all should drink it quickly."
< br>
"Okay."
The two of them each drank a cup of herbal tea. Zhou Zhi took Yang He into the bedroom, turned on the fan, and felt alive.
Zhou Zhi took out Yang He's account book: "My mother's place, you still have more than one hundred yuan. How much have you earned in the past few days?"
"It's sixty or seventy." Yang He said.
"Tomorrow we will go to Manzhou to find Miss Sixth Sister." Zhou Zhi said, "Making money like this is really a waste of motors and electricity."
After saying that, he went to the living room and picked up the phone and dialed a number: "Brother... Oh, don't talk nonsense about ancient scriptures. You have serious business... You still want to make money... There is an opportunity to become a capitalist, would you do it?"
"...Don't brag to me on the capital side. I don't know what your background is?! We are talking about the side that owns the means of production...well...your family's lottery Is the electricity out of service now? Just ask your godfather to go to the neighbor’s house for half an hour’s news!” ...Okay, don't worry it won't be damaged..."
Stop talking on the phone: "Done!"
Early the next morning, Zhou Zhi and Yang He took a car to Manzhou.
The sixth sister is now raising her baby at home, and the tobacco shop has been handed over to Zhu Dazhang's brother Liu Er to take care of it. Zhu Dazhang and Yu Sange are busy opening the lighting shop and running the business.
When he saw Zhou Zhi’s Xiaoliu sister, he couldn’t stop laughing: “Have you marinated your elbow?”
Zhou Zhi first put down a basket of lychees and then took it out from his bag. Two packs of braised pork: “Don’t tell me it’s true Yes! Jiachuan Roast Meat, brought here specially for you.”
The sixth sister took it: “Which one is better, the one from Crossroads or Nanguan?”
“The one from Crossroads? .”
"The ones at the cross are more fragrant." Sister Xiao Liu invited the two of them to come in and sit down, then pushed a small plastic box to them, and when they pressed it, half a toothpick popped out: "We will use this to eat. Go and get the lychees too. come over."" You can’t eat too much of these two things, just taste them.”
Zhou Zhi said: “The lychees will get burned and the bacon will get colored. I'm a pervert, male The baby is okay, how can the girl be cured?”
“You’re talking nonsense!” Sister Xiaoliu glared at Zhou Zhi, then reached out to pat Zhou Zhi as usual, then raised her hand and remembered that everyone was older. He couldn't help laughing and put his hand down again: "Everything is ready for you, take it away quickly, it's annoying to look at it."
Zhou Zhi opened the plastic bag: "That's them! Brother Zhu also likes to play with this ?”
"Playing with Liu Er and the others all night long!" Sister Xiaoliu became angry when she said this: "I'll cut them off directly this time!"
That night, behind the Cross Cross Roast Meat Stall , there is another small stall.
There are two coffee tables here. On the coffee tables are two color TVs, one Panda and one Hitachi.
The panda ones were rented from Mr. Qiao, and the Hitachi ones were old furnishings from the conference room of the Sugar and Liquor Company. During the period of "The Condor", there was a brilliant time when a hundred people crowded into a conference room to watch movies, but now they have long since fallen into disuse. into a situation where no one cares.
The electricity is brought from the Second Lighting Bureau nearby. The barbecue stalls and cold cake stalls here all use this electricity. It is also a small income-generating project for others, ah no, a convenience project.
There are two red and white boxes under the small coffee table, with cassettes inserted on them. There are four small bamboo stools in front of them. A rough eight-bit picture is playing on the TV. A big man with a flat head is charging forward, the weapon in his hand is biubiubiu. Destroy enemies coming from all directions.
"Contra".
Zhao San, a young worker in the waterworks, is sitting on a small chair on the side, using the button controller in his hand to control the bearded man in overalls to move forward bravely, jumping on pipes, picking up gold coins and stepping on yellow dogs, his hands and body moving forward for a while. The left side turns to the right side, just like this can help the electronic uncle in the TV.
"What the hell! What the hell! Turtles can fly! I step on them! Hahaha... This guy can also throw a hammer! Ouch! Ouch! Oh, it's a hammer..."< br>
"Super Mario".
Music with a strong electronic flavor sounded on the street corner. The section from the intersection to the old road by the river was originally a place where children often played, and it quickly attracted a group of children to watch.
Then someone who couldn't resist the temptation soon started to play, "Uncle, uncle..."
"What are you doing?!" Zhao San turned his head and startled the child: " Didn’t you see that I was in high spirits?”
“Third brother, what are you doing? What? You are the manager!" Zhou Zhi immediately said: "This is a customer!"
"Oh!" Manager Zhao suddenly thought about business and said, "Two cents is a life. ! Starting from three pieces! Buy five and get one extra! ”
The three children pooled their money together and risked their lives to hand it over: "Uncle, let's buy three lives first..."
The business came, and the children began to embark on the journey. Then they fell heroically on the road one by one.
This is the first epoch-making large-scale electronic game industry project in Jiachuan County - a Famicom stall, which brings the entertainment consumption of Jiachuan children directly from the wilderness era into the electronic age.
That night, the two machines never stopped, and almost no children could survive three minutes, so they lined up to give more than 40 yuan to the stall.
The children dispersed, and the young people in their late teens and early twenties came again.
Most of the young people who were still wandering on the street in the middle of the night were familiar with Brother Dayong Zhao San and others. Zhou Zhi handed over the stall to Brother Dayong to take care of it and asked him to arrange for the young workers of the water plant to work in three shifts.
The next day, a big umbrella was set up on the stall to protect it from the sun. It was open almost 24 hours a day.
The summer in Jiachuan is relatively hot, so the nightlife lasts until very late. No one dared to disturb Brother Dayong’s stall. At the end of the day, they actually made more than a hundred dollars.
In the original careful plan, I would push the TV to the guard room of the Second Lighting Bureau every night and ask the uncle to keep it, but now there is no need for it.
The business was so good that Brother Dayong simply set up a small bamboo bed behind the stall, where he drank beer, ate barbecue and greeted Xiao Qingpi for dinner. , has become a proper public security prevention and control point.
The income is roughly 37 cents. Brother Dayong and the others can earn almost 50 cents a day, and Zhou Zhi here can earn around 100 cents a day.
The income is so high, but Zhou Zhi has no intention of expanding the scale. He only took Yang He to take a look, and then brought him back to study in peace.
Because there is also Yang He's income here, Guan Dabin asked for five hundred as a deposit for the broken TV set of the Sugar and Wine Company. Zhou Zhi counted Yang He's two hundred in it and told Yang He that this is called a partnership. Investment, income is divided according to the investment ratio.
However, Yang He was also vaccinated. This thing only has short-term benefits. I am afraid that he will not be able to make any money in half a year.
My mother knew that there was something behind the cross-section barbecue stall to attract children during this period. She also knew that Zhou Zhi was negotiating with Guan Dabin from the sugar and wine company about renting a TV, but she never thought about Guan Dabin at all. Will agree, thinking that Zhou Zhi is just messing around and will stop in a few days.
I didn't even associate the two things together.
When I heard that the Hitachi color TV leasing project was successfully negotiated, my mother immediately went upstairs angrily to find Guan Tingting’s mother, do you still care about your family, Guan? Does this make him mess around? !
