After rebirth, I was bound to the academic system

Chapter 93: Winter is cold, put on a cotton jacket

February 2st, the 1th day of the twelfth lunar month, o'clock in the morning, today is such a good day.

Fine weather.

"It snowed for so long a few days ago that it made people feel chilly. Although the snowy scenery in winter is beautiful, it is covered with a layer of white. Looking around, it is all white."

"Children and students love and hate winter. When it snows heavily, they can build snowmen, ride on skis, and have snowball fights. It's so pleasant. After school, they no longer have to go to the mountains to work in the snow. It's time to be lazy again. But what they hate is that most of the roads in our area, whether in the town or in the countryside, are dirt roads. Since it is a poor county, every family is not very wealthy. When it snows heavily, a pair of canvas shoes will immediately become wet and dirty when walking on the road. In a second, people will feel cold from feet to heart and shiver."

"Unlike in more prosperous cities, where there are all kinds of shoes, and warm and fleece-lined shoes are standard in winter, but we haven't seen even a trace of them here."

"Those with better conditions will buy leather shoes, followed by sneakers. But no matter what style of shoes, anyone's feet will be frozen in winter. This is the current situation of economic backwardness. Winter warm shoes that are already popular in big cities may not be available to us for several years. Some may take seven or eight years, until the real estate boom. Ten years later, a large number of people went out to work. The rise of the Internet and the rise of platforms such as Taobao and Pinxixi brought convenience to these backward towns, allowing them to experience the benefits of big cities even if they are thousands of miles apart. Not to mention that until later generations, the rise of Douyin live broadcast almost everyone entered the live broadcast era, and various short videos and live broadcasts emerged in an endless stream. Even in the barren mountains and old forests, as long as you have a smartphone, you can buy anything in the world."

"But it's too early to say that now. It will take several more years to realize a convenient life!"

“Although I am not a saint, I have been caught in the rain myself and I also want to hold an umbrella for others.”

"It's probably for the sake of small profits but quick turnover! I also want to give everyone some benefits, so that everyone can wear warm cotton jackets and waterproof shoes in winter. This is not for making money, but just to follow my heart and do something."

"Since the beginning of winter, my parents have bought several batches of clothing. Not only everyone in our school is wearing our sportswear, but even most of the students in other schools are wearing our sportswear."

"Not to mention, since the weather turned cold, I asked my parents to buy winter clothes from Auntie, including cotton coats, cotton pants, cotton shoes, down jackets and fleece bottoming shirts... In order to purchase the cheapest winter clothes, my parents also took the time to go to Guangdong 13th Line and bought a lot of goods there. Although this trip was quite troublesome, my parents said it was worth it after going there. The goods there not only have many styles, but also are cheap. It was also an eye-opener for them. It was the first time they knew that clothes could be sold by kilograms. As people from Guangdong, they must be very happy."

"When they got there, they wanted everything. But after much deliberation, they decided to purchase a large amount of supplies. Although the round trip cost was not small, compared to the wholesale price in Xinghai City, the cost of this trip was almost the same. Can you imagine how cheap the clothes there are?"

“It also opens the door to a new century for them.”

"All the winter clothes and shoes we bought this time are not only of guaranteed quality, but also cost-effective. Not to mention that my parents are now more conscious. Now that our family is getting richer, we don't spend a lot of money on clothes. After deducting the postage, transportation fees and all other expenses, we only add a few dollars more to each piece of clothing before selling it."

"This is simply charity. Almost everyone who sells clothes in town is cursing my parents, saying they are idiots. They spent so much effort to get the clothes, but they sell them for such a low price."

"You actually want to be a philanthropist and make woolen clothes! You can just give money away directly."

"Almost all of these clothing sellers hate my parents because they have lost all their clothes. Isn't there a saying that goes like this: To cut off someone's wealth is like killing their parents? Now my parents are cutting off their source of income. Everyone hates us. But the most heartbreaking thing is that their own relatives, friends, and children are wearing clothes bought by our family. Even some of them, even if they hate us to death, still wear our clothes."

"They love and hate our family. They hate our family because we block their way to make money, but they love our family because they have been in the clothing business for many years and they think that the quality of the clothes we buy is really good, the prices are not profitable, and there are many styles and patterns."

“Although I hate it, it smells really good.”

"In previous years, even if their family also sells clothes, they have never seen such fleece shoes, cotton coats and trousers. They know their own clothes well. In winter, they stay at home if possible. Those clothes are not warm at all and are very bloated. For them who have a little money and love beauty, it is really speechless."

"This year is different. Since we opened this clothing store, everyone has been refreshed. The clothing styles are no longer the same old styles, and the prices are prohibitive. The new styles from big cities directly beat the old clothing styles from fifth- and sixth-tier cities. Anyone with vision will not give up these new styles and moderately priced clothes and choose those old styles and slightly expensive clothes."

"Now they can feel the warmth on their bodies and feet, and are no longer afraid of the cold winter days and the white snow in the sky."

"Now when you walk down the street or go to the countryside, you can see that almost everyone is wearing a cotton coat, cotton pants and cotton shoes. Some of the better-off people also choose down jackets. It all depends on personal preference! We also have to thank my dad for his unique vision. He bought a lot of goods generously, which added a lot of color to the people of Qiushui Town."

"Especially the students in our school, they are so grateful to our family. They know that there are rich people in the town, but they don't care about other people's lives. They only take care of their own business, so how can they spare the extra time to do charity?"

"Although many people are talking about our family behind our backs, saying that we must be rich and stupid, who doesn't do business to make money? Our family is like doing charity. They are worried that we are really selling at a loss when they buy at this price. Compared with other clothing stores, their worries are more obvious."

"At the beginning, everyone had the same mentality, that is, if you don't take advantage of an opportunity, you're a fool. Everyone would grab the wool whenever they could. But after this semester, our family's amazing operations time and time again made everyone's mentality change all of a sudden. They were afraid that our family had really become stupid. After all, don't we have three children in school?"

"Look, these are the new cotton-padded clothes, cotton-padded pants, cotton-padded shoes, fleece-lined clothes and pants, and various styles of shoes that they can only see on TV. The thermal clothes they bought are thin and warm, not to mention everyone's favorite thermos cup. Some of them love it very much after getting it. In the middle of winter, being able to drink such a mouthful of hot water in school is so enjoyable and comfortable. Some students even came up with new ideas. Some added tea leaves, some added wolfberries and red dates, and some even directly put porridge in the thermos cup... Anyway, no matter how they do it, being able to drink such a mouthful of hot water in this cold winter day really warms your heart and stomach."

"Not to mention: our store held an activity where students could exchange their scores for clothes. A few students got free cotton jackets, and most students got a set of cotton jackets with a discount of 20 or yuan. Compared with other stores, the clothes we sold were very cheap."

"As our family changes day by day, people who like or hate our family have become wary of us. They all know our family, and we are not someone they can easily provoke."

"But without exception, for the people of this town, they have really enjoyed great benefits this semester, and they are at least somewhat grateful in their hearts."

"When we did this, we didn't think too much about it. We just did it according to our own wishes. But it was a pleasant surprise to receive so much kindness from so many people. After all, more friends mean more paths! It's better than having enemies everywhere in life!"

“To be kind to others is to be kind to oneself.”

"What matters is that the world is bustling with people, all for the sake of profit, and the world is bustling with people, all for the sake of profit."

"In the final analysis, whether it is good or evil, it is inseparable from one's own interests."

"I never challenge the bottom line of good and evil in human nature, nor do I believe that human nature is good at the beginning, nor do I believe that anything is unchanging. As time goes by, many people and things will go with the flow of the times, but the good or bad of others has nothing to do with me. I only believe in my own abilities, and I believe that others will not easily betray my capital. I am a wealthy family myself."

"Of course, human nature has good and bad sides, including relatives and friends. There is still a lot of time to come, right? We can always tell who is a ghost and who is a human."

"But if there really is someone who betrays me, I will not be merciful easily. If I do, I am not worthy of being an immortal cultivator, and I will not pursue the path of immortality."

"So everything I do now is done at my own whim. It does no harm to me. The road to becoming an immortal is long, so I have to make my life more colorful. These harmless things are another form of cultivation."
