Reborn in 1940 and survived until the new century

"I think she has a grudge. If she didn't have a grudge, she wouldn't have done something like that."

"That's true. I just wonder if the Guo family in the West Wing will be able to answer her questions?"

"Thinking of what?

The Guo family makes money from that, how could they be so stupid as to tell the family in the east wing?

Although making pancakes may seem simple, there are many tricks involved in doing business. How can I just tell others about it?"

"So, after all this fuss, neither the family in the east nor us got anything?"

"How come you didn't get anything? Didn't you see the house in the east wing?

Even if she comes forward in person, it doesn't work, so why do we need to come forward?

Although that person's method is different, the Guo family has already made their attitude clear, so it is unlikely to ask them for help.

No matter how much we envy the West Wing for making money, doesn't our family have any connections?

Not to mention that the family in the Daozuofang actually succeeded with their small business, but they are already selling candied haws, so it would be a bit unreasonable for us to sell them as well. The most important thing is that we don’t know where anyone can sell hawthorns.”

"That's right. It may seem like a simple business, but it may not be possible to succeed if you want to do it."

"is not that right?

Even though I’m just selling food at the train station, if I didn’t have any connections, would I have been able to do this until now?

Since we know it's useless, let's just stay here honestly!

As for making money, I'll find another opportunity!"

"That's right, it's a pity, otherwise, we would have another way to make money!"

"Look at what you have accomplished?

The Guo family's business is not that high-end or fancy, it's just some food. If we can solve the food problem, to be honest, we can do it.

Even if I earn less, it’s still an income for the family. But food is not easy to solve, after all, everyone has the same ration.”

"Yes, how did the Guo family solve it?"

"If I knew this, I wouldn't have waited until now and done nothing. I might have already started selling food."

"Really? It seems that the Guo family in our courtyard is not an ordinary person?

They don’t have to worry about whether they have enough food at this time, but can take out so much food to cook and sell. This shows how powerful this family is.”

"That's absolutely true, the Guo family is really powerful.

It’s a pity that we’ve offended the East Wing, otherwise, maybe we could get something out of it someday?

Ugh!

From now on, I can only think about this kind of thing. It's all the fault of that idiot in the east wing. He can't even handle such a small thing?

Moreover, we have offended someone for no reason. Do you think it will be difficult for us to ask the Guo family for help in the future?"

"What is there to worry about?

It’s not our family that offended their family, right?

We ask them to do something for us, does that mean we respect them?"

"That's right, what are we afraid of?"

"What do you know?

Forget it, it’s good enough for a kid to think of these things, but I’ll tell you the details!”

"OK?

Mom, you say, we are listening? "

"Yes, you said, we promise you that we will never tell anyone what we said today."

"That's right, it will never be spread to anyone else!"

"That's pretty much it."

That night, except for my family who went to bed early, the other three families did not turn off the lights until midnight.

I have no idea what they said and I don't want to ask.

I just know one thing, ever since the rare incident in the east wing, my family has become less and less willing to express their opinions in the yard.

They just nodded to the distant neighbors. After all, they were just a tenant in this yard. If they really couldn't make ends meet, they could move away. However, it might not be easy for them to move.

I heard that the houses of the other three families were allocated by their units. The houses were allocated to them. If they want to move, or do anything else, it’s not enough to just say it verbally.

The owners of these two wing rooms were able to move out of this yard only because their eldest son was capable, otherwise they would not have been able to move out of this place.

Also, because the family opposite had offended their family, the other two families in the yard secretly resented them.

Yes, if the family across the street had not offended our family, they would not be like this now, feeling so unfamiliar when seeing our family as if they had just moved in.

They were afraid that they would offend their family again by accident. It was precisely because of this that they were able to avoid many troubles time and time again. In contrast, they were worried every day.

Don't mention this, I really want to know about this. Recently, more and more people are doing business in the market.

Many people maliciously raise or lower the price because of the venue or people doing the same business, resulting in many people not only not making any money, but also losing a lot.

The reason I know this is because for the first time, my family did not sell all the food and instead had to take it back.

Looking at the food left in the three of them's backpacks and the time they would sell the food today, I knew the situation outside was not optimistic.

It didn't take long before I learned the seriousness of the matter from the three grandfathers and heard their opinions on the matter.

"Now I finally understand why the educated youth were arranged to go to the countryside. Every year there are so many people who can't find a job. It's really not a good idea to not work and wander around outside all day.

Look how long it has been?

Those people who are always talking nonsense start to cause trouble from time to time?"

"is not that right?

Even if the country allows business now, we can't act on impulse, right?

When a sentence doesn't hit the point, they start to fight. To be honest, those who do this are just a bunch of young kids. How can their fight be any better than when I fought my enemies in the past?

If you have the ability, why don't you go to the battlefield and kill the enemy, but show off your ability at this time?"

"What's wrong, Dad? Did you encounter it too?"

"Um!

Not only did I meet him, I also helped the public security comrades from the nearby police station.

Otherwise, the police force they have is simply not enough.

Because of the delay, there are still some items left, but I couldn’t bring them all back in the end.”

“That’s you. If you don’t have that ability and are just an ordinary person, would you dare to step forward?

As for not selling out all the food, it’s not your fault, my sister and I didn’t sell out all the food today either.”

"Yes, but then again, we run into a group of people fighting from time to time. Even if he has nothing to do with us, it's not a big deal to just watch him, right?"

"Who said it wasn't?

If I hadn't had to worry about the food in the backpack, I might have wanted to join in a fight with them. It was really exciting to watch.
