Chapter 5 Uncle Guard, his surname is Sun
After eating the boxed lunch, Mu An'an didn't stay any longer, he left the old city directly, and it took more than half an hour to walk to the gate of the Sunshine Community.
Sunshine Community is located in the center of the city in the quiet area, due to the excellent geographical location, more than ten years ago was also the best choice for the city's wealthier people to live, the old man also bought a house here at that time, it is said that he spent his life savings. And now that housing prices are rising, even the houses in the community of City C, which has been around for some years, have risen to thousands of yuan per square meter, so it is not wrong that Mu Anan has always called himself an "invisible rich".
Of course, he would never dare to actually sell the house.
The doorman who sat in the duty room at the entrance of the Sunshine Community all year round immediately greeted Mu An'an as soon as he saw Mu An'an coming back: "An'an, why did you come back so early today?"
Although there was a lot of delay on the road, it was only four o'clock now, which was an hour earlier than Mu An'an's usual home. Faced with the questions raised by the doorman who was very familiar with him, Mu Anan never dared to talk nonsense like he did to the barbecue stall owner before, so he could only reply tremblingly: "Today... When that performance is completed, the boss just... Let me leave work early. ”
The doorman was trembling when he heard Mu An'an speak, and immediately knew that he was not telling the truth at all, so he immediately sighed and said, "Alas, An An, when your master died, entrust me to take care of you." But my grandson has lived for most of his life, and he has not made a name for himself, and he can only be a security guard in this community when he is old. ”
Listening to what the doorman said, it turned out that he had already known that Mu Anan had lost his job, but he didn't seem to know how Mu Anan had come over in the past two months, if he knew that Mu Anan went out to pretend to be an old beggar all day long, he would never be the most serious he is now.
Uncle Sun and Mu An'an's master, that is, the old man, have been old friends for many years, he watched Mu An'an grow up, and he has also taken care of Mu An'an's master and apprentice for so many years. And in the two years since the old man's death, he has been worried about finding a job for Mu An'an.
Mu Anan didn't want to disappoint Uncle Sun, and hurriedly explained: "Uncle Sun, you also know my situation, I have been unlucky since I was a child. Especially in the two years since Master's death, I am looking for a job and losing a job. Now I'm really out of the question. ”
"Then what are you doing out every day?" Uncle Sun asked.
Mu An'an replied naturally: "I can't find a stable job, so I go to the streets every day to do temporary work." He had already thought of the reason.
"Alas!" Uncle Sun sighed, handed over a business card and said, "You kid, this is the last job I can find for you, uncle, let's go to the park tomorrow to interview him." ”
Mu Anan took the ordinary business card and looked at it, which wrote the Central Park Management Office, administrator Zhu Guodong.
"What is this?" Mu Anan asked.
"Central Park is looking for patrol security guards, and it just so happens that an old friend of mine is there as a ranger, so you kid should cherish this opportunity. And uncle, let me tell you, being a patrol security guard is an idle job, the work is much easier than mine, and the park also manages the staff'......s three meals, I don't know how much food money I want to save you?
Mu An'an is most afraid of this, over the years, the old man and Uncle Sun, one with his hands, the other with his mouth, raised him in a man's way, which also created his current two-skinned character who is not afraid of beating and scolding. Of course, not being afraid of scolding is on the premise that Uncle Sun did not come out in person.
In the face of Uncle Sun's chatter, Mu Anan could only listen to it with a smile on his face for a long time, and finally waited for the uncle to drink saliva, and he ran into the community without looking back.
"You kid, don't forget tomorrow's events!" Uncle Sun shouted as he looked at Mu An'an's back.
After dealing with Uncle Sun, Mu Anan was finally able to go home and have a good rest, and stumbled all the way back, Mu Anan thought that if he had some money for the bus at that time, he would not have so many things, but speaking of these unfortunate things that happened today are just a microcosm of Mu Anan's life for more than 20 years, he should have been accustomed to it a long time ago.
In response to that sentence, the lucky people are usually more or less lucky, while the unlucky people are always unlucky.
The house left by the old man is not big, it is not small, the first floor and the second floor add up to almost two hundred and thirty or forty square meters, Mu An'an lives on the second floor with a small space, and the first floor has actually been idle. He also thought about renting out the first floor, but because he was in a hurry to find a job, he casually posted a notice at the door of the community and didn't continue to be busy with this matter, and then he was busy begging along the street all day, Mu Anan still preferred to use the word "Huazhai", in short, no one contacted him about renting a house, and he soon forgot about it.
I got dirty mud today, and I just wiped it casually when I changed my clothes in the old building just now, and it still smells like it. And Mu Anan thinks that even if you want to be a beggar, you have to be an extremely clean beggar, otherwise others will "smell" you and stay away, which will affect your income and harm yourself.
So as soon as he entered the room, Mu An'an went straight to the bathroom, opened the canopy, and when he was undressing, a steel hammer fell out of his trouser pocket and rolled towards the water outlet.
"!" Mu An'an exclaimed, before he finished taking off his pants, he immediately bent down to pick it up, he inherited the fine tradition of thrift and thrift of the older generation, and he must not allow any waste to happen in front of his eyes, even if it is just a game currency.
But Mu An'an was really in a hurry, his legs were pulled by his pants, and the bathroom floor was quite slippery, and one fell to the ground before he could stand firmly, and he could only watch the steel hammer get closer and closer to the abyss.
Mu An'an didn't dare to open his eyes to look at it, but to his surprise, the steel hammer actually happened to stop with a bang just before it was about to fall into the water outlet.
Lost and recovered is like picking up in vain, this is the tireless teaching of the old man.
Washing himself freshly, Mu Anan jumped onto the sofa with an empty crotch, and casually played with the coin in his hand, he had carefully observed it before, this coin was finely made, some did not look like it was printed by the machine, it was more like it was hand-carved, and it was still from the hand of a master, and it might be very valuable.
But what really interested Mu An'an was not this, he always felt that the steel hammer in his hand was not so simple, but he couldn't tell what was special, but there was a feeling in the dark.
Mu An'an felt it for a long time with the steel hammer, but in the end he didn't feel an egg, so he had to put the steel hammer aside, pick up the business card given by Uncle Sun and look at it carefully.
There are only a few words on the business card, Mu Anan has already read it just now, and he is just thinking about whether he will continue to walk on the road of pretending to be a beggar, or he will be a park patrol with peace of mind.
As soon as he thought of this question, Mu An'an's eyes couldn't help but look at the ceramic pig on the table next to him, which contained all the tickets he had obtained in the past two months, except for daily consumption, of course. Since he only mechanically deposited money into it every day, Mu Anan didn't know how much the little pig had stored in his body now, so he hesitated to pick up the jar and lift it high, and then slammed it to the ground.
The ceramic pig suddenly became fragmented, and the colorful soft sister coins inside were also spread out together, Mu Anan hurriedly squatted down, flattened the money one by one, held it in his hand, and began to count it slowly, and as the amount rose from one digit to two digits, until the last soaring four digits, the slight smile on Mu An'an's face also turned into a complete smile, and he didn't expect that the two months of begging life would make him earn a full six thousand three hundred and seventy-seven yuan and five cents.
It seems that Zou Sanbai's claim that he has a monthly income of more than 10,000 is really not lying to him, if he continues with this trend, it is not just around the corner for him Mu Anan to become a millionaire.
Thinking of this, Mu An'an smiled even more. But he also didn't want to think that in addition to the economic regionality, there is also a theory called economic finitude, which is an important factor restricting the career development of beggars.
Due to the limited range of activities of ordinary people, they usually do not interfere with other areas, and for Mu An'an, that is, the benefactor in each area is relatively constant, so the economic benefits he can get on a daily basis are also constant, and will gradually decrease over time.
That is to say, even if he Mu An'an can get a few thousand in Zou Sanbai's territory in the first month, there will definitely not be so much in the second month, after all, people are not stupid, on the contrary, modern people are more than a monkey spirit, if he has given you charity before and has been a good person once, there is no need to give you money every day.
And in the end, the result of this theory is that the economic benefits of Mu An'an's "begging" in this area will be minimized, and he may not earn dozens of yuan a day, so that he has to be forced to change the venue and start "begging" again, and this second area will eventually become the same as the previous area due to economic limitations, after all, not every place in City C can reach one million people per day.
This is also one of the basic reasons for the emergence of homeless people, if a beggar can live a stable life by begging in an area, how can he choose to wander around?
However, none of the above will affect our declining god Mu An'an to continue to be happy, holding these tickets in his hand, with extreme joy, of course he will not think about these too complicated things, but soon he will not be happy.
Due to the arrears of three months' electricity bill, the property finally made up his mind to cut off the power to Mu An'an, and in the face of the sudden darkness in front of him, Mu An'an only subconsciously clenched the money in his hand, but soon he also realized what had happened.
"It's time to pay the electricity bill tomorrow. ”
Today's things are done today, tomorrow's things should go to bed first, Mu Anan walked into the bedroom in the dark, didn't think much about it, and fell asleep.
