Chapter Thirty-Eight: I Want to Hide But I Can't

Chen Long hurriedly strode forward with two stools in his hands, while Lu Tingting followed closely behind. But when he got out of the street, he stopped.

It is true that the impulse to make money made him hot-headed, but where to go, where to start, and what to prepare?...... His mind goes blank right now!

"I'm sorry, Lu Tingting, I made this shoe-shine decision on impulse...... Actually, I haven't prepared for anything yet. Chen Long turned his head to Lu Tingting and said, "You have done it before, tell me what you need to buy, such as shoe polish, brushes or something." Also, where are you going to set up this shoe-shine stall...... "

"Hehe, you finally know that everything is difficult at the beginning, right?" Lu Tingting looked at him and sneered, "I really want to see how you can use these two stools to set up a stall and shine shoes!"

"I know now that I was wrong. Still, I decided to try this shoe-shine job to see if I could make a hundred or two hundred dollars a day as you said. "

"I don't dare to say more, I can still earn hundreds of dollars. Well, since you've decided to give it a try, I'm going to teach you how to shine your shoes today and help you get ready for the stall. "

"Then I thank you in advance. "

"Thank you, I don't need it. However, if you can really earn money to invite me to eat and give me a commission. "

"That's not a problem. Now tell me what I need to prepare and where to buy it...... "

"You may think that the work of shoe shine and setting up a stall is too simple, but in fact, there is a lot of knowledge and things to prepare. First of all, you have to figure out what kind of work the shoe-shine stall has to do, and shoe-shine is only one of the jobs, in fact, there is also mending shoes, putting shoes on the line, changing the soles, and knowing how to change the roots of women's high-root shoes and nails. ...... Of course, by the way, some insoles, socks, shoe polish, etc. are sold to customers. "

"Wow, there are so many jobs to do, and even to sell things! This is really something I didn't expect, it seems that if this job is done properly, I should be able to make a lot of money! Yes, I must do it well!" Hearing Lu Tingting say this, Chen Long was suddenly full of confidence and made up his mind to give it a try.

"It looks like you've really made a lot of money, I won't hit you now, and I'll know if you can really make money when you do. Okay, let's talk as we go, I'll take you to buy some basic supplies now...... "

"Lu Tingting, thank you so much. It's a good thing you came out with me, otherwise I wouldn't know where to start. "

"You finally know how important I am...... "

Since the cosmetics incident in her sister's health center, Li Feng's beating and compensation for Chen Long has always been difficult for her to let go, and she always thinks about the inappropriateness in this matter from time to time, and is worried about Chen Long's situation...... This person, in her heart, always has an inexplicable feeling that cannot be described by words, and always feels that she should care about him and help him......

She was driving past the vicinity where Old Man Shen was collecting and disposing of waste items at this time, and she had the impression that in the 5,000 yuan IOU signed by Long Chen and Li Xiaoling, the address filled in by Old Man Shen as a guarantor was nearby. Fortunately, she took a photo with her mobile phone at that time, so she pulled over and parked the car, took out her mobile phone and looked at the address written by Old Man Shen on the IOU, then turned the car around, and navigated to find Old Man Shen's shanty address......

There was a navigator to take him away, and it didn't take long for Li Feng to drive the car to the shantytown where Old Man Shen collected and put waste items, and saw Old Man Shen squatting on the ground sorting his old car.

Li Feng pulled over and parked the car, then opened the door and got into the car.

Seeing Li Feng get out of the car, Old Man Shen was very surprised, and quickly stood up and asked her, "What's the matter, have you come to the door?" Come and see my place to confirm whether my guarantor is real? Are you afraid that I will fill in a fake address randomly?"

"Uncle, don't get me wrong, I didn't mean that. Li Feng explained to him with a smile, "I came here today just to see that Chen Long...... Or rather, I want to help him. "

"Hehe, you're such a kind-hearted person...... How do you want to help him?...... The best help is not to pay back the money on the IOU and tear up the IOU!"

"Uncle, you put it simply, I am not the creditor on the IOU, and I don't have the final say on this. However, I want to help him find a job...... "

"Ah, you're going to help him get a job? Oh, it's not bad, it's better than he is picking up the rags now...... Actually, sister, since that day you can stand on his side and speak for him, and reduce most of the compensation for him, I think you are a reasonable and warm-hearted person, and now that you can find here, it shows that you are a good person!" Old man Shen finally smiled and praised her, "This young man Chen Long is also a person who dares to bear it, if it is someone else, it is estimated that people will not be willing to pay for death!"

"Okay, uncle, let's not talk about it yet, what about Long Chen? Is he in there, tell him to come out." "

"He's not in there, this kid, I thought he was going to pick up the scraps, but his tricycle is still here, and he hasn't eaten lunch, and I don't know where he went. ...... Oh, wait a minute, I'll go inside and ask my wife. Old man Shen got up and walked back to the shed.

At this time, Mrs. Lu happened to come out of the shed, her crying eyes were a little red and swollen, and when she walked out of the shed door and saw Li Feng and the car, she asked, "Who is this?

"You came out just in time, don't you have Tingting's phone, you call her and ask her if she is with Chen Long and where she went...... Old man Shen stopped and asked.

"You are sick, how can Tingting be with Chen Long? She should go back to work by herself. "

"Can I be sick? Neither of them had lunch, so they must have gone out together...... It's all your fault, what are you crying about, you scared the two children away crying, and they didn't have anything to eat!"

"Do you blame me? I blame you for losing all the money!" the old woman scolded him loudly.

"Okay, okay! It's all my fault, it's me who is wrong...... Now call and ask Tingting, they came to find Chen Long and helped him find a good job. "

"Help Chen Long arrange a job?" The old woman was a little surprised, and looked at Li Feng again, "Okay, I'll ask Tingting." ...... How could they be together when they just met?"

The old woman said and took out an old-fashioned mobile phone from her trouser pocket, rummaged through it for a while and dialed: "Tingting, is it?...... I'm your aunt, why didn't you eat lunch and left? Where are you now?...... What, in the square of Yunlong Bus Terminal? Are you with that Chen Long?...... What, you're with him?...... "

The old woman talked to Lu Tingting on the phone for a few minutes, and through the old woman's conversation, Li Feng basically figured out what Chen Long was doing there now. So she quickly thanked the old couple, got in the car and drove straight to the square of Yunlong Bus Terminal.

......

————******————

Getting on the bus, Chen Long followed Lu Tingting to visit several places before he bought all the things needed to shine shoes and set up a stall. The money needed in the process was not enough, and Lu Tingting helped him make up for it.

Lu Tingting took Chen Long to the bus station square where she used to go, where there was a large flow of people, and there were many shoe-shine services, and of course, there were many shoe-shine services for setting up stalls together.

The two of them took the newly bought utensils and items to find a relatively empty place with a large flow of people and stopped. Lu Tingting taught Chen Long to set up the shoe-shine stall hand in hand, and then asked Chen Long to sit down as a customer, polished the old sneakers he wore as leather shoes, and explained to him in detail. finished, changed seats with Chen Long, and asked him to learn to polish her crystal sandals as leather shoes......

Chen Long listened carefully to Lu Tingting's instructions on the details of the shoeshine service......

seemed to have memorized and learned the essentials, so Lu Tingting began to warmly greet the shoe-shine service of passers-by, but Chen Long still couldn't open his mouth.

After soliciting for a while, no one sat in to shine the shoeshine service, and Lu Tingting was a little anxious: "Long Chen, you also have to be bold to solicit customers, how can you come to the door without soliciting business?...... Well, you continue to solicit here, I'm going to go to the bathroom, I'm so hungry, you should be hungry too, we haven't eaten lunch, I'll help you get a quick snack later. "

"Okay, there you go. You eat your own, you don't have to spend money to buy it for me, I'm not hungry. When the business comes, I'll go eat again when I make money. "

"Hehe, like you, I don't know if I can make money today...... Okay, I'm not going to tell you, I'm going to solve my problem first and then come back. You should attract guests with your heart!" Lu Tingting finished speaking and left quickly.

Chen Long kept soliciting passing customers, but no one sat down to accept his service, his throat was almost hoarse, and the confidence and passion he had before the opening began to be hit hard.

So he took out a bottle of purified water that was almost empty from his bag, unscrewed the lid and drank it, counted every new item he bought, and calculated the investment cost......

While he was still busy settling the cost of the items, the first customer was already slightly seated on the hospitality stool.

Chen Long seemed to realize that a customer had sat down, and when he looked up, the customer in front of him scared him!

- It's Li Feng!

Li Feng was wearing a white crewneck shirt with silver-gray trousers, holding a small leather bag with a marked color in her hand, sitting upright on the customer service stool, and had already put the silver leather sandals she was wearing on her left foot on the shoe-shine pile.

She looked at Long Chen with friendly eyes and said to him with a smile: "I really didn't expect it,...... Come, wipe my shoes for me. "

It took Chen Long half a minute to calm down, swallowed the last sip of pure water, screwed the bottle cap back into his bag, hurriedly took out the shoe brush, and squeezed out a smile at Li Feng:

"What a coincidence, you're my first customer...... "

"Hehe, then I'm so lucky!" Li Feng was a little flattered, "I really didn't expect you to come to the stall to shine shoes...... "

"Makes you laugh, don't you? Always doing such dirty, dirty work...... "

"No, there is no distinction between high and low work, and it is good to earn money by working and eating with your hands!"

"You speak better than you sing! Who would want to do this if they had a better job...... I can't compare to you anyway. Chen Long finally made up his mind, and talked to Li Feng while helping her polish his shoes, "What's the matter, did you help your sister find me to ask for money? Where can I earn 5,000 yuan so quickly...... "

"No, no, don't get me wrong,......! It was purely a chance encounter...... I just sent a friend to the bus station to take the bus, and my shoes were a little dirty, so I wanted to wipe them and wax them by the way, but I didn't expect to meet you so coincidentally, or the first customer you said, how lucky...... Li Feng casually made up an excuse and said.

"Well, I'm afraid you're coming to me for money. Chen Long rubbed her leather sandals indiscriminately, but in fact, her shoes were dirty, almost like the newly bought!

"No, the money will be repaid when you slowly earn enough, I understand that it is not easy for you to work to earn money. Li Feng was thinking about how to open her mouth to help him find a job, and the situation in front of her made her feel very uncomfortable, and her mind was chaotic......

"I am very grateful to you for your efforts in the police station to convince your sister to pay me more than half of the compensation, really, I am very grateful to you...... "

"No, no, I just wanted to get the matter done quickly, and besides, it's really not easy for you to make money, I don't think you really want to steal those cosmetics...... "

"How could I steal?...... Definitely unintentionally moved into the car...... "

"Well, let's not talk about that...... "

Li Feng wanted to stop mentioning the extremely bad incident to each other, but the phone in her bag rang at this time, so she opened her bag and felt it out to answer it.

"Hey, Li Feng, are you at work or where are you? I want to call you out for a cup of tea with me tonight and talk to you about something...... "The call came from Fang Qingfang.

"I'm not in the company right now, I'm in the Yunlong Bus Terminal Square...... "

"No, it's a coincidence, I'm also in this square, I sent a customer over, and I just finished the task. ...... Tell me where you are and I'll get to you right away!"

"No, you don't need to look for me, you tell me your location, I'll go find you. Or, you go back first, I'll have something to do later, I'm afraid I won't have time to ,...... together I'll have tea with you tonight...... Li Feng hurriedly pushed her back, and turned his head to search for her everywhere in the square...... She was really worried that she would bump into her at this moment and she was ...... with Long Chen

But before she could finish speaking, Fang Qingfang on the phone laughed: "I saw you!"

"No, where are you?, why can't I see you?!" Li Feng suddenly became nervous.

When Li Feng was still looking for Fang Qingfang in the distance, someone tapped her from behind a few times...... The more worried she was, the more it happened, Fang Qingfang was already standing behind her!

"Haha, you're so particular, your newly bought shoes will be on right away...... "

Before Fang Qingfang could finish speaking, his gaze collided with that of Long Chen, who was looking up, and in an instant, it seemed that time and air were frozen......
