Reborn Petty Citizen

There are three people in the family, and neither he nor Zhang Ti is an adult. After much deliberation, Zhang Ze still plans to discuss his thoughts with his mother.

The business in the store is very good, even better than Zhang Ze expected.Zhang’s steamed stuffed buns are crispy with big fillings, sweet and delicious, and they are the only ones in Huaixing City, a place where fried bun business is not popular. Residents who have tasted the taste on the day of the opening basically have changed from then on. lost regular customers.In the afternoon, I bought fried buns for two yuan and went home. I heated up a pot the next morning, and the breakfast for the pillar and the child was settled.In addition, there are several nearby schools nearby. In addition to Zhang Ze’s No. [-] Middle School, there are two elementary schools in the opposite direction. Parents who pick up and drop off students and students passing by are also one of the customers, and most of them are still open. A middle school student who came to hold the stage that day.At first they looked at Zhang Ze's face, and then it was purely for the taste of the buns. These students are not short of pocket money, and sometimes they buy them for six or seven yuan, and take them home for their parents to eat together.

The turnover on the opening day was more than 1000. Zhang’s mother was almost dumbfounded after the amount was calculated. Later, it was not so lively, and the turnover gradually stabilized. Roughly calculated every day, it was around four to five hundred yuan. After excluding the cost, every day A net profit of one hundred to two hundred is quite impressive in this era.

The number of baking pans in the small kitchen increased to five, and Zhang's mother hired a few old ladies who had played well in the tube building before.Many old people in this era are from poor backgrounds, and they work more quickly than the other. Zhang’s work is easy and clean, and the boss is also kind. The retired old people can still get a salary of 200 yuan a month, and almost no one is unwilling. .Zhang's mother also stood behind the counter to help collect the money. Sometimes Zhang Su came to play with her and would help share some of the burden, which was much easier than when setting up a stall.

But she is a restless person. Whenever she has free time, she squats at the counter knitting a sweater or something, and even makes clothes for the children of Zhang Su's family.Zhang's mother's natal family is a tailor in her own village, and Zhang's mother's grandmother is an embroiderer who fled to the village during the troubled times.The clothes she made were hand-crafted with fine stitching, together with Zhang Ze's verbal suggestions based on the styles of later generations from time to time, they directly dressed the children of Zhang Su's family into a fashionable baby in Huaixing City.

When Zhang Ze came home, Zhang’s mother happened to put away the sewing machine—the sewing machine was moved by Zhang Su from home, and it was placed in her house as a decoration, so she simply bought it for Zhang’s mother to catch up with work.My elder sister Zhang Ti came down from the attic with a smile on her face. She was wearing a green shirt, which was too long, with a black belt around her waist and a pair of bodybuilding pants popular in small cities. She was very excited when she saw Zhang Ze. Ask: "The trousers that Mom just made for me, do they look good?"

The front part of this bodybuilding pants is made of leather fabric, and the second half is woven with elastic matte fabric. It is different from all the styles that are popular in the market now. It is similar to the leggings that girls of later generations will have a pair of. ...

Zhang Ze nodded with a toothache. The increasingly calm Zhang Ti couldn't help cheering, and jumped out to show Zhang's mother, but was stopped by a resident who came to buy buns on the way.

"Little girl!" The lady who seemed to be in her early 30s walked around Zhang Ti with bright eyes, "Where did you buy these pants? How much are they?"

"My mom made it!"

The lady immediately took out the money and put it in Zhang Ti's hand: "20 yuan, sell it to me!"

……

"Stock trading?" Zhang's mother took over a dozen pairs of bodybuilding pants in one afternoon. They cost 20 yuan a pair and made a net profit of more than 15 yuan. She stepped on the sewing machine in the dark and was in high spirits.The bodybuilding pants are easy to walk on, and the fabric is elastic. She doesn't even need to calculate the size carefully, and she can make a pair in 5 minutes.Hearing Zhang Ze's words, she paused, raised her head and pushed the glasses on the bridge of her nose, "Have you read your sister's messy books?"

As she spoke, she glanced at Zhang Ti who was reading under the lamp after finishing her homework. Zhang Ti put down the "Invisible Deception" she was holding in her hand, and said coquettishly: "Mom! Why is it me again!"

"You are the only one to look at these things at home," Zhang's mother curled her lips, ignored Zhang Ze, and continued to make clothes with her head bowed.

Zhang Ze tried to convince her: "I have inside information, really. Many of the students in our school have connections in securities companies, and they won't lose money."

Zhang's mother listened to him without raising her head, and suddenly pressed the roller of the sewing machine, raised her face and looked at him seriously: "Do you know why your grandma Zheng came to our house to help?" There is an old lady who helps with hygiene in a fried bun shop. In fact, there are both children in the family. I heard that they all work in the coastal area. The family conditions are probably good.

"why?"

Zhang's mother lowered her head again, and replied sullenly: "Grandma Zheng's son learned how to speculate in stocks in Shanghai. He lost 5 yuan and couldn't continue his work. He owed a whole lot of debt." She finished speaking. If he didn't speak again, his silent gesture had already clearly expressed his attitude of never supporting this matter.

Zhang Ze pursed his lips and straightened his waist, looked down at him for a while, then secretly glanced at Zhang Ti from the corner of his eye.

Zhang Ti closed the book, stretched out his finger and gave him a "fake" sound, waved his hand, and pointed in the direction of the attic.

Zhang Ti has unlimited support for Zhang Ze's proposal. She has read a lot of books on securities, and Men Qing, who already knows the details of the transaction in her heart, is just at the stage of eagerness to go to the sea to try it out.Originally, she shouldn't have had so much courage, but the calculations of the ups and downs in the newspaper several times were all accurate, which gave her a very important confidence in the initial stage of an unfamiliar industry.

They were under the age of [-], Zhang Ze was [-], and she was [-], and they couldn't open an account in a securities company. In addition, neither of them had much savings. The first problem to be solved was money and account opening.

It is easy to open an account, as long as you are looking for an adult, but the problem is that this person must be trustworthy, otherwise, if the other party turns against him after making money, Zhang Ze will not have enough grounds to get back what should belong to him property.The second is funds. The siblings put together all their savings, and after counting, they only have 200 yuan. This amount of money is not enough to be heard in the stock market. What can it be used for?

If Zhang Ze knew the short-term trend of certain small stocks, that small amount of money might turn into big money through speculation. Unfortunately, only a few stocks left an impression in his mind.

After much deliberation, he turned around in his mind, and there was only one person he could trust.

&&&&&&&

It was cold and windy, and there was light snow in the sky. After New Year's Day and entering [-], the streets became even more bleak.

The stock market at the end of the year is not optimistic, and the sudden turnaround has caused many people to lose their fortunes. There are rational and impulsive speculators, but in the face of interests, no matter how rational people are, they will inevitably be shaken.

The three-year trough ended with a severe fall, and many people could no longer hold on.

Even so, the securities company was still bustling with activity, and the hall was filled with red and green, and bursts of cheers and wailing erupted from time to time.This group of gamblers risked their lives and fortunes, gambling, losing, and winning, making an ordinary person even more terrifying.

Lu Lu twisted his mouth and rubbed his arms: "Little Guanyin, if you hadn't begged me, I wouldn't have come here to join in the fun even if I was killed."

The nickname resisted several times and it was still ineffective. Zhang Ze frowned and forced himself to endure it: "Aren't you here? I will pay you back twice as much as you borrowed from me. I just don't know how you will be when you join in this fun." Not addictive."

Lu Lu raised his eyebrows: "Hey, I went bankrupt and gave you all my savings. Can you say something nice?" Lu Lu really spent a lot of money this time. Not a small amount.His father is an old chief, who is popular and professional, and gives him 5 yuan of pocket money every month.If it weren't for Zhang Ze's promise that he would definitely repay him twice, he probably would have given the money to his brothers in society as a loan.But doubling it in a year, this kind of profit cannot be achieved even with the high interest rate of borrowing. Anyone who borrows is borrowed. It is better to lend to acquaintances and sell it.Especially this person is Zhang Ze, the little Avalokitesvara who he dreamed of getting along with.

Of course, he had other plans in the final analysis.Lu Lu lit a cigarette, caught a glimpse of the looming security guard in the lobby, took a puff and hid it by his lap, pretending to be cool, and let out a sigh: "I'm now partnering with you, brother Du, to start a small company. Too much, you didn’t borrow it in time, otherwise I can get some out. Tsk, playing stocks is too much brain work, you still have to discuss it with your brother Du, it doesn’t matter if you lose money, it’s a delay of one or two years to pay back It doesn't matter."

Zhang Ti on the side frowned, and flung his eyes sharply: "It's true that a dog can't spit out ivory, can you say something auspicious?"

"I was wrong!" Lu Lu was terrified. Zhang Ze's black, thin, and thin sister, who was surprisingly imposing, raised her hands immediately after being taught a lesson, "I mean, you can fish hard. If you feel that the money is not enough, you can get it later." It's still time, I don't mind if I double it!"

5 yuan was invested, and the price per share was lower than Zhang Ze remembered, two yuan and twenty-six cents a share.

Great, just wait for the time to come back.

Zhang Ti wandered around in the hall, looked left and right, and stood behind the investors who were picking stocks and watched for a long time, but did not come to any conclusion.But for some reason, she trusted her younger brother's choice from the bottom of her heart. Zhang Ze hadn't taken the initiative to make a few decisions in his life, but every drastic choice must be correct.She will never forget who she is able to live a peaceful and warm life because of. If Zhang Ze hadn't strongly urged her mother to leave the village, she might still be that timid rural girl who dare not speak loudly until now!

%%%%%%%

Lu Lu swayed into Du's house, walked through the lobby and climbed up to the second floor to find Du Xingzhi's study room. He opened the door and laughed loudly, "Oh, Brother Du, little Guanyin will fall this time!"

Du Xingzhi was originally reading a book this day, but when he heard the words, he raised his head and cast a calm gaze on Lu Lu: "What do you mean? I bought stocks?"

Lu Lu lit a cigarette, took a sip and stubbed it out in the ashtray, and collapsed on the sofa out of breath laughing: "You don't know how cute his serious look is...that stock has fallen by the limit several times Yes, he bought it for [-] yuan. I don’t know where I learned it from a three-legged cat. Hahahaha! If I don’t plant this time, I have to take his surname..."

Du Xingzhi's mood became gloomy for some reason, and it was difficult to let go of his never-compromising attitude towards his friend's behavior in the past. He even felt that Lu Lu's face at the moment was really ugly: "When you lend him money, you know He wants to buy this stock? Then why don't you stop him?"

"Why should I stop him?" Lu Lu raised his head and glanced at him, his eyes quite 'surprised', "I wish he didn't pay back the money! How long will it take me to be a grandson before I can get into the world with him? Little Guanyin I understand the person, he is very honest, and when the time comes, he will not be able to repay the money, and I will show his generosity with a low eyebrow, and he will appoint me as a benefactor. Damn, I can’t stand it even thinking about it, the little Guanyin’s hand ... Brother Du, you touched the hand of the little Guanyin before, is it slippery? Is it soft?" He jumped up from the sofa, squatting on the sofa like a monkey, scratching his head and staring at it with piercing eyes. Du Xingzhi.He never forgot the scene of Du Xingzhi shaking hands with Zhang Ze on the day Zhang Ze's house opened.

Du Xingzhi frowned, turning a blind eye to his friend's questioning eyes. He turned around and sat back at the table in silence to read a book, but he couldn't help but recall the calloused hand he held that day.

Such a hand... obviously endured a lot of poverty and pain. If the 5 yuan was really lost and lost, he could imagine how heavy the pressure Zhang Ze would bear for it.

He didn't know why, but there was a tingling pain in his heart that couldn't be ignored, as if the itchy kitten had gradually grown into an adult, and its claws were gradually revealing sharpness, pressing it mercilessly into the soft chest.
