"Dad, I'll go out to set up a stall and come back for dinner. ”

"It's best not to come back when you're out in the wild, you don't know what you're busy with every day, and you eat dry food every day. ”

The scolding of his stepmother had long been numb, Cao Bing closed the door, carried two large boxes full of toys on his back, and walked towards the place where the stall was set up in the mud after the snow.

It's still the first month, the university hasn't started yet, and there are few stalls on the ground. Cao Bing easily found a good position near the school gate, spread a white cloth, and took out batches of toys. These toys were all brought from a friend, and they were said to be made by township enterprises and were quite cheap. However, I have been setting up a stall here for several months, and I haven't even sold a box. Cao Bing was already upset, and in order to wholesale these things, he had already asked his father to borrow more than two hundred. If you continue like this, you don't need to think about what to make money, but how to recover the cost first!

"Take a look, take a look, buy one, and play with the child!" Seeing someone passing by, Cao Bing immediately shouted loudly. But those people glanced at it a few times, and all of them did not stop, and they did not have the slightest interest in these toys.

"Hey!" Cao Bing threw the clockwork toy frog to the ground, sighed, and felt for the cigarette to light. These days, he has also pondered that although these toys are very cheap, the colors on them are too inferior, and they are not attractive enough at all, and it is no wonder that others do not come to buy them. It's really cheap and no good goods! A little discouraged, Cao Bing thought to himself, "If anyone really wants it, I will admit it at a loss." ”

"Huh, there's still this here?" Suddenly, a teenager stopped and curiously picked up a toy.

Cao Bing's eyes lit up: "This 5 yuan 2, you want to be cheaper." ”

"Brother, I'll take a look. The boy smiled and put it down, "I played with this when I was a child, but I didn't expect to see it here." ”

Cao Bing was a little anxious, and pulled the young man: "Then it's cheaper, 5 yuan, 4 yuan 8 yuan, a fixed price, 4 yuan 5?" This price is actually lower than Cao Bing's purchase price.

"Brother, I really don't buy it. The boy smiled and shook off his hand, ready to leave.

Seeing that the young man was really ready to leave, Cao Bing was even more anxious: "Then 4 yuan!"

"I really don't buy it. ”

"Why don't you buy it?" Cao Bing rushed to the young man and grabbed him by the chest, "Negotiate a good price, dare not buy it?"

"But I'm ...... I didn't ask the price, brother, let go, let go!"

"Did you pick it up? Did you take it just now? That is, you ask the price, and dare to talk back? ”

"Brother, brother, I'll buy it, I can't buy it?" The young man's eyes were aggrieved, and he helplessly took out a brand new five yuan from his pocket, "Give it to your brother, 4 yuan." ”

Cao Bing grabbed it and stuffed the toy into the young man's hand: "I'll give it to you, and the payment will be cleared." ”

"Eh, what about the 1 piece you found? Brother, didn't you say 4 pieces?"

"Who's saying that? It's 5 pieces. What, you still want to stay here? Want to buy another one?"

......

Waiting for the young man to leave stupidly, Cao Bing smiled bitterly and lit a cigarette again. However, when I thought of the money in my pocket, I had a little comfort, and finally opened it.

"New toys, come and see, buy one for the child......" has a good start, Cao Bing is in a lot of spirit, and even the shouting seems to have become louder.

"Second brother, it's him!"

"Brothers, beat that bastard!"

"Eh, don't step on it!"

"Smash, smash it all clean. This boy is mine. Cut him today, I don't even know his mother. ”

"Hit ......"

"Brother, spare my ——!"

"Keep fighting!"

“......”

Retribution is coming quickly. It didn't take long for the young man to lead a group of people to come and punch and kick Cao Bing, and smash and trample on the toys. Finally waited for the group of people to finish venting, Cao Bing, who was lying on the ground, slowly got up, touched his bruised forehead, touched his nosebleed, looked at the toy fragments all over the ground, and wanted to cry without tears.

The onlookers gradually dispersed. After moving for a while, feeling that he could still move, Cao Bing began to pick and choose on the ground, hoping to find something that had not been broken. After looking around, I only found two or three bad ones, which are not serious. Sighing, I wanted to smoke a cigarette, but I found that the cigarette in my pocket had been crushed.

"Here's one!" Suddenly, a cigarette dangled in front of Cao Bing.

Cao Bing raised his head and smiled reluctantly: "Xiao Jian! ”

Carrying the box, he followed Jing Jianzai. Today's business has completely failed, and looking at this appearance, it will be difficult to reopen in the future. Cao Bing was a little confused, he had been unemployed for so long, and his younger brother was replaced at home, so what should he do in the future?

"I haven't thanked you yet. Jing Jian smoked a cigarette and smiled at Cao Bing.

"It's okay, just borrow a house. Are your relatives satisfied? Actually, the last two rooms are a bit dilapidated, and you can still press a few dollars, or I'll talk about it again?" Cao Bing hurriedly replied.

Jing Jian's acquaintance with Cao Bing was purely accidental, but there was also a hint of inevitability. At that time, when they were doing market research, the two of them had a few conversations. When asked if Cao Bing lived nearby, Jing Jian paid attention. When he returned to Huaqing this time, Jing Jian found Cao Bing and asked him to help introduce him to rent a suite nearby. Coincidentally, there were a few empty rooms behind Cao Bing's residence, and after contacting the landlord, he rented them very happily. The rent is not expensive, 35 yuan per month, and it is rented for three years. For this reason, Jing Jian also gave Cao Bing a cigarette afterwards.

Jing Jian didn't care about this little bit of rent. After arriving in the capital, he sent Dalin's parents to the hospital for a full body examination. Subsequently, medicine was prescribed, Dalin's mother went home to recuperate, and Dalin's father arranged cataract surgery. An operation like this was not big or small, and the operation was quite successful, so after a few days in the hospital, Da Lin's father was able to be discharged. In order to facilitate the care, Jing Jian simply rented a suite near the school and arranged for Dalin's entire family to live.

Jing Jian greeted Cao Bing with a smile: "It's okay, just go and sit with me if you're fine." My aunt kept saying that I want to invite you, thank you. ”

"Look at what you said, Xiao Jian, I'm really not afraid of your jokes, where else can I go?" Cao Bing smiled bitterly, "Then bother my uncle and aunt, go sit for a while." ”

deliberately bypassed his own door and followed Jing Jian to the rental house. Suddenly, Cao Bing was a little surprised, Jing Jian stopped and looked at the door, his eyes were complicated. He didn't know that Jing Jianzheng sighed in his heart: "Originally, this should be the love nest of himself and Wei Yingzhi, but now ......?"

The pause was short, and Jing Jian quickly returned to normal. knocked on the door, and Zhou Mei soon appeared: "Xiao Jian, oh, and Xiao Cao, please come in quickly." I'm looking for you. ”

Following Jing Jian into the outhouse, Cao Bing looked left and right, and it was already clean. There are a large number of tapes on the table, and on each tape, there is also a copy paper with black and white patterns and words printed on it. Cao Bing picked up a cassette tape and asked curiously, "Xiao Jian, what's in here?"
