Ye Cheng

After returning to Ye Cheng's small courtyard, Cai Jinzhi didn't ask Ye Cheng anything, just settled the two children and went back by himself.She was afraid that the child would not keep his mouth shut. If Qian Xingliang or his wife asked about it, what did your grandma tell you when she got home?

Tomorrow Qian Xingliang will take Ye Cheng to the town to sell clothes, and Cai Jinzhi doesn't plan to join in the fun. Those who know that she is just going to join in the fun, but those who don't know think that he is worried about Qian Xingliang, and he is afraid Qian Xingliang and his family are suspicious.

Early the next morning, Ye Cheng was dug out of the bed by Qian Xingliang's daughter-in-law, and Lu Mingyuan woke up after sleeping beside him, and they got up together, anyway, he would go wherever Ye Cheng went and follow him. It's getting tighter.

Along with Qian Xingliang, Qian Xingliang's daughter-in-law Wang Guihua, and her younger brother Wang Chao.When Wang Guihua came to call Ye Cheng, Qian Xingliang and his brother-in-law Wang Chao had already moved all the goods to the side of the road.

From that road to the town, there are only a few tractors a day. The back of the tractor is welded to a frame and covered with a tarpaulin, and there is a shelter for wind and rain.At that time, the sky was not yet bright, and there were not too many people on the street, and their goods could still be loaded, even if the tractor driver charged an extra two dollars for the toll, the fare for Ye Cheng and Lu Mingyuan was also the same. They were all given by Qian Xingliang, half price, [-] cents per person.

When he arrived in the town, Wang Chao borrowed two benches and one board from someone he knew, and put one on the street, which became a temporary stall.

At the beginning, it was still a bit deserted, but when the sun came out, the people on the street gradually increased, and more people came to their stall. Now is the day to buy new year's goods, and many people who usually work outside have returned , It is also a rare generosity when buying things.

Neither Wang Guihua nor her younger brother has ever done business. In their view, a few yuan or more than ten yuan in line clothes and trousers can be sold for 35 yuan, which is enough to make a profit.But Qian Xingliang didn't think so. He stayed outside for a long time, saw a lot of things, and was very courageous.He felt that the quality of the goods was very good. The usual house was in the store, and it would cost forty or fifty. Now they set up a stall and sell it for [-], so someone can ask for it.

But he also wanted to get rid of it earlier, and he would leave when the year was over. At that time, his two sons would have to go to school again, and Wang Guihua would have to cook and do housework and work in the fields. Where would he find the time to set up a stall? You can also make money outside, so it's not worth the time to delay.

So the adults’ set sells for 25, and the children’s set sells for [-]. There are also socks and gloves.

When there were more and more people shopping, the two children Ye Cheng and Lu Mingyuan stood in the way at the stall, so the adults sent them to play.

Ye Cheng took Lu Mingyuan for a stroll on the street. When he came to a store selling groceries, he suddenly remembered something and walked in. This was the largest grocery store in their town. Basically, there are all kinds of daily necessities. Ye Cheng found a place that sold rubber gloves, and saw a pair that was exactly the same as his grandmother's broken pair. They were hung there and wrapped in a transparent plastic bag, and the color was also better than his grandmother's. A pair is much brighter.

"How do you sell this?"

"That, nine yuan." The proprietress in the store was squatting on the ground to sort out a batch of newly arrived goods. Seeing that the person asking the price was a child, she didn't take it seriously, thinking they were just asking for fun.

"I want to buy it." Ye Cheng stretched out his hand to reach for the pair of gloves, but he couldn't reach them several times.

"Have you brought any money?" The proprietress patted the ashes in her hands and stood up.

"Bring it." Ye Cheng did have money in his pocket. The trousers he was wearing had two pockets. The left pocket was sewn to death by Qian Xingliang, and there were bills of more than ten yuan in it. The pockets were not sewn shut, and there were only some small change in them.

Ye Cheng took out all the change, but it was still not enough, it was only more than six yuan, so he had to borrow a pair of scissors from the proprietress to open the left pocket.

The proprietress was also surprised. The child hadn't counted enough money for a long time, and now he borrowed scissors to open his trousers. After seeing it, he realized that the trick was coming. One accidentally cut his pants.

He took out a ten-dollar bill from his pocket, found a one-dollar bill and put it in his right pocket, then the proprietress opened her drawer and took out a needle and thread, and stitched Ye Cheng's bill with the big bill in it. The pockets were sewn up.

At this moment, a few shopping women came in. Seeing the proprietress squatting on the ground sewing pants for a doll, they asked curiously, "Madam proprietress, is this your son?"

"My son has graduated from high school, and it's time for me to have a grandson in two years." The proprietress laughed twice, tied a knot and cut the thread.

"Then why are you so enthusiastic, and you even sew pants for other dolls, isn't your son doing bad things outside?" the women joked.

"If he has this ability, I don't have to worry about it. You don't know, this baby's family is so interesting, they sewed the money into his pocket."

"That's a good way. I'll sew that kid's pocket some other day. I take out the three or five yuan every day, but I never get it back. It's either spent or lost. He thinks I'm talking to his father. All the money is fished out of the river."

The proprietress took off the pair of rubbers that Ye Cheng liked, and went to the faucet at the door to test the water. If there was no problem, she wiped it with a dry cloth and put it in a packaging bag.After Ye Cheng and the others walked out of the store, he continued joking with the women: "Three yuan and five yuan don't need to be sewn, that's the amount in my child's pocket." He said and shook four fingers.

"Forty?" Five yuan is considered a lot for an average child these days.

"Hey, four hundred." The proprietress smiled.

"Whose family's child is that? In our town, there are still families who can put 400 yuan in their children's pockets?" The woman who spoke obviously didn't believe it.

"I don't see it. A rich man can't sew a child's pockets. He came over to buy gloves just now. He probably is a child who is in charge."

In those few years, the number of migrant workers gradually increased. Some parents were cruel and left their children at home alone, or at the grandparents' house, leaving a few hundred dollars for the neighbors to take care of them. It is common to leave for a year or a half.

That night, when Ye Cheng handed the gloves to Cai Jinzhi, she was stunned for a moment, but then she liked it. In the past few days, when she saw someone, she said that her nephew would feel sorry for the old woman, and this time she even bought him a pair of gloves. It's nine yuan. After going out for a year, people are sensible, thanks to Qian Xingliang and so on.

However, the villagers obviously have little interest in her pair of nine-yuan gloves. What they want to know most now is how much Qian Xingliang can earn from the business at the moment, and how much can he give Ye Cheng at that time?No, Qian Xingliang's stall was still open, and the people in the village murmured behind their backs, saying everything, but they didn't believe that Qian Xingliang could really give Ye Cheng a dividend.

The business of Qian Xingliang and the others went smoothly. It took them less than five days to sell out all the goods.Qian Xingliang was very happy in the afternoon of the last day. The few of them returned to the village cheerfully. Everyone knew that their family had made money. Qian Xingliang’s stall business was very hot these days, and everyone knew that he would definitely make money this time. .

As a result, as soon as Qian Xingliang came back, he had people invite Ye Cheng's uncle Qian Shouwan, aunt Luo Yueling, and grandmother Cai Jinzhi to Ye Cheng's small courtyard.When the villagers heard about this incident, they all went over to join in the fun. At this time, the courtyard of Ye Cheng's house was full of people.

Qian Xingliang arrived at Ye Cheng's house first by himself, and sat at the door with a notebook to do the math. Recently, he kept accounts of how much he sold and spent every day. Adding, subtracting, and subtracting at this moment is also extremely fast. .

When Qian Shouwan and his wife and Cai Jinzhi arrived, he gave Ye Cheng's share of the money to him in front of everyone.

"Cheng, although you are still a doll, uncle, I am a man. We mean what we say. When we took you 4000 yuan, we made a profit from the business. After deducting the fare and the expenses of the past few days, you are still net Earn four thousand and five, and in front of your grandma and uncle, I will settle it for you."

The thick 500 yuan was handed over to Ye Cheng just like that, and the small courtyard immediately exploded. What was the concept of [-] yuan in the village at that time?At that time in their village, there were not many households with a fortune of more than [-] yuan.Like the men in their village, who go out to work and work hard all year round, it is considered good if they can get five or six thousand back home.

After all, Ye Cheng is just a child. He went out to ask for food for a year, and he did business with Qian Xingliang in a daze, and he had [-] in his pocket. The villagers said everything about Ye Cheng's luck. Yes, there are people who make money in begging, but most of them say that Qian Xingliang is capable and Ye Cheng is lucky to keep up with him.

The reason why Qian Xingliang wanted to give this money in front of everyone was because he didn't have the intention of showing off. This time he made money in business, he was very happy in his heart, and he really got carried away for a while.

But the most important thing is that he still wants to make it clear to Grandma Ye Cheng and the others. After all, this child has no parents. He Qian Xingliang took him to the city to beg for food. After this year, his wife Wang Guihua also listened to it in the village. Don't gossip, he's just trying to make a name for himself now, Qian Xingliang didn't take advantage of Ye Cheng.

As a result, the whole village knew that Ye Cheng had 500 yuan in his hands, and everyone stared wide-eyed to see where the money would end up.

"Hey, Ye Cheng, how do you plan to spend so much money?" Someone asked on the spot.

"Keep studying." Ye Cheng replied honestly.

"Hey, look at this kid's future. You said that this study can't cost so much money. Who do you give it to?" If you want to leave it to an adult, no one will answer this kind of question, but Ye Cheng is still a child after all. .

"Give it to grandma." If you want to give it to grandma, who else can you give it to?

"Oh, Cai Jinzhi, your nephew is so filial!" The villagers immediately laughed.

"Silly boy, grandma can't ask for your money, you keep the flowers yourself, ah." Said Cai Jinzhi, still happy in his heart, the younger generation is filial, who is not happy?

"Ye Cheng, your grandma said that you are keeping the money for yourself. How do you plan to spend it?" Someone asked again.

Ye Cheng squatted on the ground with the thick dozen of money in his arms and thought for a long time before he finally remembered that there was one more thing he could do: "Pay off the debt."

When his mother was alive, she would nag him about three things every day. The first thing was to ask him to be obedient.Ye Cheng promised well at the time, but now he is a little hesitant, because Lu Mingyuan's later parents treated him badly.

The second thing is to ask him to take care of his younger sister when he grows up, but he hasn't grown up yet, and his younger sister lives far away at his aunt's house.

The third thing is to ask him to pay off the family's debts when he grows up rich.The two main creditors of his family are his uncle's family and his aunt's family. Although his mother said that he would pay it back when he grows up, since he has money now, he should pay it back first.

Especially during the time when his mother was about to leave, she seemed to be afraid that Ye Cheng would not remember, and told him these things all day long, until Ye Cheng couldn't forget them even now.
