Chapter 2 Opportunity is right in front of me, but I don't have the money

That's right, how did you forget such an important thing?

"Three monkeys, is it April 15th today?"

Hu Yangyi was excited, and reached out to grab Liu Donglai's shoulder.

The three monkeys Liu Donglai was defenseless for a while, and was almost choked to death by the dry naan cake. He hurriedly picked up the cup on the table, and no matter who used it, he poured half a cup of water into the cup.

"Ahem, you want to kill me! Isn't it April 15th...... Oh, your old man subscribes to the Xijiang Evening News every year, and delivers it on time every morning, so isn't there a date on it? Lao Hu, you are weird today. Did your mom scold you again?"

Liu Donglai didn't think much about it, but thought that Hu Yang had been repaired by his wife again. The old lady of Populus euphratica is famous for her pungent and spicy nature, and she is really not used to this guy Populus euphratica.

It was his father who was used to poplar.

Hu Yang ignored the three monkeys, his eyes staring directly at the date in the newspaper. April 15, 1993.

It was only then that he remembered a major incident in '93.

Speaking of which, the early nineties were full of opportunities, and it was up to you to take them. However, Xijiang City, located on the border of the Western Regions, has only had the opportunity to get rich overnight for decades, and it is in these two days.

If Hu Yang is not mistaken, Xijiang Hongyuan Trust Co., Ltd. will issue public shares to the public, and on April 18, 1993, the "Xihongxin" stock subscription ballot form will be publicly sold.

Golden opportunity!

But the problem is that there is also a cost to buy a subscription lottery form...... In that year, the cost of each subscription lottery form was 10 yuan, and each person was limited to 20 tickets.

Populus Hu subconsciously touched his pocket, and the pocket was bareer than his face. He took out all the corners and put them on the table, which was less than five dollars.

"Grass!"

Hu Yang's excitement fell instantly, and he couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth.

"Lao Hu, what's wrong? You didn't react when I asked you, but I gave you a sentence if you didn't go. ”

The three monkeys don't know where they have offended Populus euphratica, and this sentence is a little weak-hearted. The two have played since they were children, and their primary and secondary schools are in the same school, and he has been "bullied" by Populus euphratica.

"It's none of your business to get distracted...... I'm still going to go, but I want to make some money myself and buy the subscription lottery form myself. ”

Back then, Hu Yang was pulled by Liu Donglai to help others line up, and he still took care of food for 30 yuan a day. They waited in line for two days and two nights, and each earned 70 yuan. Well, the extra ten dollars is a bonus given by the boss who found out his conscience.

When Liu Donglai heard this, he was a little anxious: "Brother, can't I call your brother?" I heard that that thing is similar to gambling, and I accidentally accompanied it. When the time comes, you can buy a few pieces of waste paper and put them at home, and it will be strange if your mother doesn't beat you to death! Besides, we don't have any money......"

Nowadays, ordinary Xijiang citizens have no concept of the stock subscription lottery form or anything. Twenty pieces of paper cost 200 yuan, which is a lot of people's wages for a month.

Most of the bosses who hire people are from other places who have crossed the river, and there are no local people with ideas and insights, but there are very few.

It is an instinct for people to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and anyone will be afraid of their unfamiliar and unfamiliar things, so they will hesitate.

Hu Yang nodded, and said in his heart, he was also confused, with the current knowledge and conservative character of the three monkeys, he could not understand this matter.

Both of them fell silent, and suddenly the atmosphere was a little cold.

Liu Donglai thought that Hu Yang was unhappy, so after thinking about it, he took out a small bottle and a stack of cut old newspapers from his body, handed them to Hu Yang, and said, "Let's smoke a cigarette." ”

"It's ...... Mo Heyan?"

Mohe tobacco is to directly chop the tobacco leaves and tobacco sticks, and then roll them into cigarette rolls with thin strips of paper when smoking. It is pure and natural without any additives, and it is very spicy to smoke. The only good thing about this cigarette is that it's cheap.

It's been a long time.

Hu Yang didn't stretch out his hand to take it, smiled and said, "Let's go, smoke one in the yard." ”

"No one in the family wants to go to the yard to drink the northwest wind?" I said, did you take the wrong medicine today?"

Liu Donglai is a typical character who forgets the pain of the scar, and he knows that he is going to suffer as soon as he speaks. Sure enough, Hu Yang stretched out his hand and walked into the yard with a "crutch".

So, two eighteen-year-old young men squatted on the ground, and one rolled a Mohe cigarette and lit it. As soon as the spicy smoke entered his lungs, Populus euphratica coughed violently.

"Grass, that's a lot of energy!"

Hu Yang's face was flushed, but the memories that welled up in his heart were not very good. He remembered that after he got married in his previous life, he never smoked at home, and he was always driven to the balcony when he smoked.

After a few puffs, Populus euphratica couldn't stand it, so he simply snuffed out the cigarette butt. Then he said, "Three monkeys, you go home and wait for the letter, and I'll go out." Don't worry, thirty dollars a day won't run yours. If it delays you in making money, I'll make it up to you. ”

Liu Donglai is good at this point and obedient. When he was a child, he listened to Populus euphratica, and even his father and mother couldn't talk as well as Populus euphratica.

Pushing the family's bicycle out of the yard, Hu Yang locked the gate, and then parted ways with Liu Donglai.

Liu Donglai's house is about 100 meters in front, and he will arrive through two small alleys. So Hu Yang didn't care about him, rode on the road by himself, and went straight to the big vegetable market.

Dacai Market is three stops away from Hu Yang's house, and it takes more than ten minutes to reach it by bicycle. His mother, Li Guixiang, sells vegetables in the big vegetable market.

In fact, Populus euphratica was extremely reluctant to come to the old lady to ask for money. It's a pity that the father at home is not at home, and she can only be found for this money.

Parking his bicycle outside the market and locking it, he walked inside. His vegetable stall has two counters, and his mother can usually be busy alone. His father would ride his tricycle to the groceries every morning, and only after he brought them back would he go to help others deliver the goods to make some money.

Seven or eight meters away, Hu Yang saw his old lady Li Guixiang weighing food for others there. Li Guixiang is forty-two years old this year, and she looks a little old, but her pretty appearance when she was young is still faintly visible.

Populus euphratica looks just like her.

Decades later, when I saw my mother again, poplar's eye sockets were a little red. Li Guixiang has hardly had a good life in her life, and when Hu Yang left Xijiang and went to the south, she died as soon as she broke into the famous hall.

"Mom......"

After Hu Yang waited for the customer to leave, he walked to the counter in three steps and two steps, but this "Mom" was full of indescribable sadness.

"Yang Yang, what's wrong with you?

Li Guixiang is quick to speak, and her voice is very loud. Many of the customers and other stall owners in the market came to see it.

With this voice, the emotions brewing in Populus euphratica suddenly disappeared. He subconsciously shrank his neck, took half a step back, and said, "Mom." No one bullied me, I just rode fast and the sand got into my eyes. ”
