Siheyuan: All the birds want to die, I enjoy happiness

"Brother, more than just knowing him, I have to call him brother according to seniority. We were from the same village. His dad and my dad were comrades-in-arms. By the way, where is Uncle Wang?" Wang Chunsheng explained to Su Xingchen.

"Oh, don't mention it. I lost contact with my dad and mom seven or eight years ago because of the war. I have been trying to find out where they are, but I haven't found out yet." Wang Teng shook his head. He hasn't missed his parents for a single day since he was separated from his family at the age of 14. However, after searching for seven or eight years, he already suspected that they might have died on the battlefield.

"Then didn't you tell the street office? They should be able to help you find it." Su Xingchen couldn't help but speak.

"Um...Brother, they were captured before. I asked the street office and they said they would notify me if they had any news."

"Hey, it's okay. It should be fine." Wang Chunsheng said comfortingly.

"Brother, Chunsheng, if you don't mind, please come to my house and sit for a while." Wang Teng said. After all, the weather was quite cold.

"Okay, then you lead the way." Su Xingchen nodded in agreement.

Along the way, Wang Chunsheng and Wang Teng talked about everyone's lives over the years, which made Su Xingchen sigh about their experiences and made him feel that his original idea was correct.

The three of them soon arrived at Wang Teng's house. "Come in, don't mind that the house is a little shabby." As he said that, Wang Teng was about to pour them some water.

"No need to bother, and don't call me brother. I'm just a little older than Chunsheng. I'll call you Tengzi and you can just call me Chenzi. Since we all know each other, there's no need to say too much." Su Xingchen sat down and said to Wang Teng.

"Okay, Chenzi, tell me what you want me to do." Wang Teng said as he pulled a bench over and sat down.

"I know it's not easy for you to get to this point after so many years, but if you follow me in the future you must not do anything illegal. Can you guarantee this?" Su Xingchen looked at Wang Teng, and then said with a serious face. This was Su Xingchen's bottom line.

"No problem, don't worry. As long as you can provide us with food to eat, none of us wants to do anything illegal or criminal." Wang Teng immediately vowed to Su Xingchen.

"That's good. I won't hide it from you. I have some channels for purchasing goods. Chunsheng and I have been going to Pigeon City to sell things recently. But you also know that one of us is a student and the other is from the Security Department. After all, these identities are not suitable for frequent visits to Pigeon City. In fact, that day I just wanted to see if you would turn over a new leaf. If you can do it, I don't mind recruiting you." Su Xingchen paused and continued, "Obviously you have passed my test, so I plan to let you take your brothers to Pigeon City to sell things. I will pay each of your brothers 50 yuan. You and Chunsheng will each get 120 yuan a month. If you do a good job, I will give you another reward. What do you think?"

Hearing Su Xingchen's words, Wang Teng instantly became excited. He heard that his younger brothers were paid 50 yuan a month, and thought that he would get at most 120 or yuan, but he didn't expect it to be yuan a month!

"Chenzi, I'll do it. I can promise you on behalf of all my brothers." Just kidding, 120 yuan a month is just selling some things. This is much easier than before, and the risk is much less. Before, if they were unlucky, they could only get or yuan a month at most. Sometimes they would get beaten up. Now there is such a good job, who would be stupid if they don't go?

"Okay, then you go and rent a house, and I'll have someone put the things for sale there, and you can go there to pick up the goods at night and then sell them. Chunsheng, you will be responsible for keeping the accounts, just keep the money, and you don't have to give it to me every day. As for your salary, I will pay it once a month." Su Xingchen nodded and said to them.

"Okay, brother." Wang Chunsheng nodded repeatedly when he heard Su Xingchen's order. He didn't expect Su Xingchen to give him such a high salary. 120 yuan is enough to completely improve their family's life. You know, the salary of an eighth-level worker is less than 100 yuan. He already earns 120 yuan a month, and this job is much easier than other jobs.

"Chenzi, do you still want to rent a house? Is my house not enough?" Wang Teng asked. In his opinion, renting a house is a waste of money.

"Of course. There are too many people here and it would be bad if someone reports you. You should find a more remote place, otherwise who knows if some enthusiastic people will report you. We'd better be careful and not waste this money." Su Xingchen said. In fact, there was a more critical reason that Su Xingchen did not say, which was that he planned to use the vegetable delivery that the system gave him last time. If he delivered it to Wang Teng's house, wouldn't he be scared to death?

"Yeah, then there's no need to look for it. I have a house here. Although it's not that great, it's enough to store vegetables and other things." Wang Teng thought for a while and said.

"Ah? You still have a house?" Su Xingchen said with some surprise. It seems that Wang Teng is a very capable person and must have made a lot of money before.

"Hey, this house was mortgaged to me by someone, and then it was transferred to me when they had no money to pay me back. The house is quite remote and a bit shabby, but it's definitely no problem to store vegetables and other things there." Wang Teng shook his head and said.

"Okay, let's go now. I'll go see where it is. I'll have someone put the things there tomorrow. You don't go there during the day. Wait until nine o'clock in the evening and bring my younger brother to sell things. From now on, I'll leave this matter to you. I hope you won't let me down." Su Xingchen said as he patted Wang Chunsheng and Wang Teng.

"Brother, don't worry. I think I'll take care of what you asked me to do." Wang Chunsheng nodded quickly and said, Su Xingchen gave him such good conditions, he must not mess around.

"Chenzi, let's not waste any more time and let's get down to business." Wang Teng said to Su Xingchen.

"Okay, let's go." Su Xingchen looked at the two of them and smiled.

Wang Teng, Su Xingchen and Wang Chunsheng quickly arrived at the dilapidated house. Su Xingchen found that the location was not bad. It was in the backyard of a courtyard house at the entrance of the alley, and there was only one family living here. Normally, no one would come here. Although the house seemed to be in disrepair, it was still a good place to store vegetables, fruits and the like.

"Okay, I got it. I'll arrange for someone to deliver the goods later. You must pay attention to your younger brothers and don't come here unless you have something to do. The delivery people don't want others to know their identities." Su Xingchen still warned with some concern.
