Chapter 1144 A small test of one’s skills
"Haozi, my family has two working parents. I can't guarantee anything else, but I can still make sure you have enough to eat. Just focus on your studies."
For Qin Hongqi's generation, the crime of speculation was enough to make the whole family unable to turn over a new leaf. It was not worth taking the risk just for a bite to eat.
"Dad, that's only for now. I'll grow up in the future, and if I become a little boy and bankrupt me, you might also have brothers and sisters. It's better for us to prepare early."
The reason why Qin Hao insisted so much was because he knew that the coming catastrophe would change the fate of everyone.
Qin Hongqi and Zhou Guilan looked at their son in surprise, but when they thought about it carefully, it seemed to make sense. After all, it was impossible for them to have only one child in their lifetime.
Qin Hao saw that the two were somewhat interested, so he struck while the iron was hot: "Dad, Mom, you don't have to get involved in these things, I'll do it. Even if they are discovered, they can't embarrass a child like me, right?"
"Look at what you can do, you are so smart even though you are little."
Zhou Guilan and Qin Hongqi acquiesced.
A week later, Qin Hao, He Jiali, He Jiawen and Zhang Qiufang went to the school to register. Zhang Qiufang and He Jiali were in the third grade, while Qin Hao and He Jiawen were in the first grade.
As a result, He Jiawen made a fool of herself on the first day of school. She couldn't even write her own name and was called to the teacher's office to write it fifty times before being allowed to attend the class again.
When He Jiawen returned to the classroom, she was crying loudly. Qin Hao happened to be sitting at the table next to her. He was so annoyed by the noise that he had no choice but to take out a piece of maltose wrapped in brown paper from his pocket and hand it to her.
The little girl felt very aggrieved and cried with her mouth open until a piece of fragrant malt sugar appeared in front of her. As a result, she cried and swallowed her saliva.
Qin Hao felt a little regretful that he didn't have a camera, otherwise it would have been fun to take some pictures.
"Here, eat it. Eat something sweet and you won't be sad."
"Thank you, Qin Hao." He Jiawen wiped away his tears. After the malt sugar entered his mouth, the sweetness slowly melted in his mouth, and he was no longer sad.
As a result, the noise of He Jiawen eating maltose attracted many classmates around her, and they all looked at her eagerly.
“Is He Jiawen’s maltose delicious?”
"It's delicious. It's really delicious."
"I'll ask my mom to buy some maltose when I get home."
A group of little foodies were drooling with greed.
He Jiawen stopped crying now, and even looked a little proud: "This maltose is not bought, it is made by Qin Hao himself. He is really good, he made a lot of maltose."
In an instant, Qin Hao was surrounded by a group of little kids.
"Qin Hao, you can also make maltose."
"Do you have a lot of maltose at home? Can you give me a few pieces and I'll give you money."
"How much is it? I want to buy it too."
Qin Hao cleared his throat and said, "I can't sell it to you, otherwise it would be speculation."
He Jiawen offered a great assist: "That's right, it can't be sold, but you can exchange it for toothpaste tubes."
"Each person can only change one toothpaste tube at a time. I can't make more than that." Qin Hao reminded.
"How many pieces of maltose can I get for a toothpaste tube?"
"Three dollars."
In the 60s, the price of maltose was about cents per pound. Three pieces of maltose were not light in weight, so it was still a good deal to exchange them for three pieces.
"Can I bring a toothpaste tube to exchange it tomorrow?"
"I'll change too, count me in."
Qin Hao reminded them, "Come home with me after school tomorrow to get it. Remember to bring your own brown paper, and don't let anyone know, otherwise you will have no maltose to eat in the future."
Under the temptation of maltose, the little kids said that whoever told it to others would be the enemy of the class.
……
Ding ding~~~
When the bell rang for the last class in the afternoon, the students rushed out like chicks out of a cage.
Qin Hao and He Jiawen were standing at the school gate waiting for He Jiali and Zhang Qiufang. Since it was their first day at school, their families were afraid that they didn't know the way, so they specially arranged for two older people to take them back.
As a result, Zhang Qiufang came down very quickly, but after waiting for more than ten minutes she didn't see He Jiali.
"Sister Qiufang, my sister won't be kept after class, right?" He Jiawen still remembered clearly how the teacher punished him by making him copy his name fifty times today.
Zhang Qiufang urged, "Wait for me here, I'll go check on their class."
Five minutes later, Zhang Qiufang came running back in a hurry.
"Your sister's class finished school a long time ago, and they've probably gone home by now. Let's go back too."
He Jiawen pouted and complained: "My sister is so unreliable. She said she would take me home, but she ran away by herself."
As the three of them arrived at the entrance of the alley, they saw He Jiali wandering there.
"Sister, you left me alone in school. I'm going to tell our dad."
He Jiali said angrily: "I didn't mean it."
"Humph."
"Okay, let's go home quickly. I'm hungry." Qin Hao said without paying any attention to them and went home to start a fire.
By the time Qin Hao finished cooking, Zhou Guilan had also returned home from get off work.
"Kid, didn't you say I would cook for you when I got home from get off work?"
"I'm hungry."
Zhou Guilan still drove Qin Hao out of the kitchen: "You do your homework first. If you are really hungry, eat a piece of maltose. I will cook."
"Oh."
Qin Hao had just finished his homework when he heard a noise coming from next door.
"Haozi, go and take a look. If anyone needs help, come back and call me." Zhou Guilan's voice came from the kitchen. Qin Hongqi and He Changsheng came to support the construction at the same time and were assigned to the same unit. They have always had a good relationship.
"it is good."
When Qin Hao arrived at He's house, he saw a middle-aged woman holding a teenage boy and demanding an explanation from He Jiali.
The grandmother of the He family wanted to settle the matter peacefully and kept saying nice things, but the middle-aged woman refused to give any face and pointed at the scar on the boy's head: "Your daughter was too cruel. Look how she beat our Weimin. His face is disfigured."
He Jiali said unconvincedly: "I didn't hit him, I just pushed him. He was the one who bullied me first."
"You all heard it, right? You just refused to admit that you hit someone, but now you've let it slip. If you hadn't pushed our Jia Weimin, would he have fallen like this?" Mrs. Tang pointed at He Jiali.
Grandma He looked at her granddaughter helplessly, and said nice things to her while wanting to give the only bowl of lard left in the house to Tang Weimin as an apology.
He Jiali glared at Tang Weimin, who lowered his head and dared not look at her.
"Sister Jiali, why did you hit him?"
He Jiali said angrily: "After school, he brought people to block me, and I was so angry that I pushed him."
"Oh, so that's how it is." Qin Hao pretended to be enlightened.
"Tang Weimin, this is what you did wrong. You formed a clique and surrounded a new classmate, and the new classmate was a girl."
Then, Qin Hao looked at Grandma He again: "Grandma He, if we report this to the school, how will the school teachers handle this matter?"
He's grandmother understood immediately: "Yes, let the school teachers judge this matter. They are well-educated and know the truth. They will not confuse right and wrong."
When Tang Pozi saw that her good plan was ruined, she glared at Qin Hao angrily.
"You guys beat someone up and you think you're right. If it doesn't work, we'll call the police. This little girl was so cruel. She needs to be put in a juvenile detention center and taught a lesson."
Qin Hao smiled and said, "Whether it's justified to hit someone depends on who started it first. Sister Jiali, you just said that he attacked you first and that's why you pushed him down, right?"
"Ah."
"Did anyone see it?"
"Yes, Tang Weimin called a dozen classmates to block me, and they all saw it."
Qin Hao looked at Tang Pozi and said, "Since both sides say they are right, let's go to the police station and let the police investigate. But by then, it's not certain who will go to the juvenile detention center."
"You...Okay, I finally see through it. Your He family and the Qin family are in cahoots with each other to bully our Tang family. This matter is not over yet. Just wait for me." Mrs. Tang was so embarrassed that her face turned red and her neck became thick. In the end, she could only leave a harsh word and left angrily with Tang Weimin.
Grandma He pushed her granddaughter and said, "Why don't you thank them?"
He Jiali clasped her fists towards Qin Hao and said, "Thank you very much. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have been able to keep this bowl of lard."
"I'm just helping out when I see injustice." Qin Hao saluted in return.
At this moment, Zhou Guilan's voice came from next door: "Haozi, what's wrong?"
"Mom, it's okay. It's all solved."
"That's good, come back for dinner, your dad will be back soon."
Not long after, He Changsheng came back from get off work and listened at the dinner table to He Jiali's vivid description of how Qin Hao had left the hot water bottle speechless and dejected.
Liu Meixin glared at her and said, "How dare you say that? You're causing trouble for the family on your first day of school."
"He was the one who bullied me first. I didn't know he was so weak. He got his head hurt just by pushing me." He Jiali defended.
Grandma He sighed, "Our two families have always been at odds with each other, and I guess this time Big Boss Tang will cause trouble for Chang Sheng again."
"It's okay. He has been causing trouble for me for a long time. I am upright and not afraid of him." He Changsheng pretended to be indifferent.
On the other hand, Zhou Guilan couldn't help but feel worried when she heard that Qin Hao had thrown the hot water bottle back.
"This soup-making woman is the most petty person. Will she vent her anger on you?"
Qin Hongqi said nonchalantly: "I'm not afraid of him. I'm a party member. If he dares to mess around, I will report him directly to the organization for seeking revenge."
Nowadays, being a Party member is not only an honor but also a guarantee. Even if you have no power or influence, as long as you join the Party, you can report the situation to the Party organization, and the Party organization will attach great importance to it. The reason why Boss Tang has been preventing He Changsheng from joining the Party, in addition to disgusting him, is also largely because he is worried that once He Changsheng joins the Party, it will not be so easy to deal with him.
After dinner, Qin Hao told his classmates that they were coming to his house to exchange malt sugar. Qin Hongqi and Zhou Guilan were a little worried at first, but when they heard that each person only had to exchange one toothpaste tube, they immediately felt relieved.
Although midsummer has passed, the autumn heat is still raging. There are no televisions at this time, so every household habitually moves out chairs to enjoy the cool air outside.
As soon as Qin Hongqi sat down, He Changsheng came over with a chair.
"Today's event is all thanks to your Haozi, thank you."
"Hey, we have been friends for many years, do we still need to talk about this?"
"That's right." He Changsheng said and looked at Qin Hao with great envy.
"Haozi is so organized and capable at such a young age. He will definitely have a bright future."
Qin Hongqi knew that he was worried about not having a son again, so he comforted him: "Don't worry, your first three pregnancies were all daughters, so the fourth one will definitely be a son."
"Oh, I hope it's a boy, who can support the family and stand up at the critical moment." He Changsheng said with emotion.
He Jiali was unhappy when she heard this: "Dad, I can also set up a household and take on responsibilities for our family."
He Changsheng smiled and said nothing, and the people nearby started laughing.
"Girls will eventually get married."
"That's right. If this happened in the countryside, girls wouldn't even get any land, so how could they start a household?"
"It's good that Jiali has this intention. Things like setting up a new household still depend on your future brother."
He Jiali was so angry that she stamped her feet: "Dad, how am I worse than boys? If they can do it, I can do it too!"
He Changsheng smiled and comforted: "Jia Li, you have such filial piety, Dad is very happy."
But He Jiali was obviously not as easily fooled as He Jiawen. She realized that her father was just trying to fool her, and secretly vowed to show her father that she was no worse than boys. No, she must be better than boys.
The next day when Qin Hao arrived at school, he was surrounded by a group of little kids as soon as he entered the classroom. Each of them held the toothpaste tube in their hand high, fearing that Qin Hao couldn't see it.
"Go to my house this afternoon to get some maltose. Class will start soon, so go back to your seats."
The little kids returned to their seats obediently.
After school in the afternoon, Qin Hao and a group of more than a dozen children aged six or seven returned home in a mighty procession.
"Wait outside for a while. I'll go get the maltose."
Under the temptation of maltose, they were all very well-behaved.
After a while, Qin Hao came out holding a large jar of maltose.
"Everyone line up, come one by one."
After seeing Qin Hao's "strength", these little kids became more obedient and soon lined up in a long queue.
He Jiawen licked his lips and watched the others happily leave with maltose in their hands.
After a while, Qin Hao's front was filled with toothpaste tubes, and the original large jar of malt sugar was almost gone.
"He Jiawen, do you still want to eat maltose?"
He Jiawen stared at his toes nervously: "But I don't have any toothpaste tubes anymore."
"No need for the toothpaste tube, just do me a favor."
He Jiawen's eyes lit up: "What help?"
"Help me sell toothpaste tubes?"
He sold so many toothpaste tubes last time, and the people at the scrap collection station must have an impression of him. If he goes there to sell again after such a short while, it will inevitably arouse suspicion, so he has to go with a new face.
"But I have never sold toothpaste tubes." He Jiawen said timidly, picking at his fingernails.
"I'll take you to the place, and you just need to show up, give them the toothpaste tube, and then get the money back."
"Then, let me try."
"Give you maltose."
"Thank you Qin Hao, you are so nice."
