In the past few days, Zhen Sheng has done a good job in the ideological work of Chen Feng and his mother, and also inquired about where some relatives can go to. After the twelfth day of the child, Zhen Sheng planned to set off in two or three days.

Early in the morning, Zhen's father pulled his bags on three wheels with manpower, and Zhen Sheng followed him out of the village. When he arrived at the side of the small road, Zhen's father, who unloaded the things, didn't say much, just admonished.

"If you don't get along well, come back. Although the family is a little poorer, it is better than suffering outside. I have time to call home more often to report my safety......"

The small bus of the village finally came, and Zhen Sheng took his bags and got into the car. He waved at the slightly hesitant old man walking outside the car.

"Go back, Daddy. I remember. ”

Zhen Sheng stuck his head out of the window, watching his father push the tricycle slowly and walk home alone, and his eyes were a little red unconsciously. Feeling a little uncomfortable, he sat back in his seat and pulled out a note from his pocket.

"Chen Qiucheng, Xinglong Grains, No. 224, Xingfu Road, Ankang District, Yuncheng. ”

Those relatives who are working hard outside are also Chen Feng's third uncle, Chen Qiucheng, who is the most comfortable. After two years of going out to do business, the family's house was renovated, and even the floor of the house was tiled. When Chen Feng heard that Zhen Sheng was going out to make money, he immediately contacted his third uncle Chen Qiucheng and asked his man to go to him, and the third uncle readily agreed.

……

It takes half a day to take a bus from Changle County to Yuncheng, and although Zhen Sheng said that he came out of his home early in the morning, it was already afternoon when he arrived in Yuncheng.

When the bus arrived at the station, the people on the bus got off one after another, and Zhen Sheng, who had slept all the way, also squeezed forward from the back row. The entrance of the bus was occupied by the three-wheeled brother early, and they had to ask every guest who got off the bus.

"Sir, do you need to ?......get in a car?"

Zhen Sheng shook his head, picked up his bags and walked out of the station. He planned to go to the newsstand to buy a map first, and if it was close, he would go on his own. But as soon as he left the station, Zhen Sheng was stopped.

"Little brother, the little brother in front of you who is carrying a bag, you wait..."

Zhen Sheng glanced back, and the old man with only one eye appeared in his eyes, this old man was about the age of touching the sixtieth birthday, and he was dressed in a tunic that was exceptionally neat. The tricycle under his feet creaked as he pedaled. Seeing Zhen Sheng turn around, the old man hurriedly continued to greet him.

"Little brother, looking at you like this, it's the first time you've come to Cloud City, where are you going? ”

The old man smiled sincerely, and soon came to Zhen Sheng's side.

"I'm going to No. 224, Xingfu Road, Ankang District, Xinglong Grains. Does the old gentleman know the way?"

This time, Zhen Sheng did not hesitate, because he was unfamiliar with the newspapers and magazines near the station closed again today. took out the note in his trouser pocket and looked at it, but at this time, the old man had already put Zhen Sheng's bag in the body of the tricycle.

"Recognize, I know that place! Five cents, I'll take you there, what do you think?"

"Okay..."

In this way, the one-eyed old man pulled Zhen Sheng and slowly ran to Xinglong Grains on the Happy Road.

The prosperity of the city, although Zhen Sheng is not the first time he has seen it. But as the capital, Cloud City is still much more prosperous than ordinary cities. Eating and playing, and wearing, this one-eyed old man introduced Yuncheng to Zhen Sheng while riding a three-wheeled pedaling bike, and it seemed that Yuncheng knew everything about him.

It's fast and fast, and it didn't take long for the old man to walk through the streets and alleys, and he walked to Xingfu Road. The shops on both sides of Xingfu Road are next to each other, and the decoration of each one is similar but different. The old man introduced the street from house to house, and he was really familiar with it as he said! But when he came to the steamed bun shop at No. 109 Xingfu Road, he paused and stopped talking. But it didn't take long for him to go back on talking.

"When I was young, I was a well-known handsome man in Happy Village. Oh, that's the road to happiness now. Don't look at me as a one-eyed person, there are a lot of girls chasing me!"

Zhen Sheng looked at the old man's stinky expression and smiled knowingly. He continued to listen to the old man's "cowhide", which was already the pleasure of the hard days. The old man talked to himself, and soon arrived at Xinglong cereals.

"Little brother, it's here. This is Xinglong cereals. Five cents, hehe. Isn't it very affordable? If you want to be someone else, it's very early. ”

The one-eyed old man said to Zhen Sheng with a smile, and helped unload the luggage from the car body by the way. Zhen Sheng took out five cents from his pocket and gave it to him, he took the money with both hands and nodded and said thank you. Zhen Sheng waved his hand, and the old man gave up, stepped on the three-wheeled pedal bike and went home.

At No. 224 Xingfu Road, a strange man was standing at the door of Xinglong Grain Store at this time. Isn't this Zhen Sheng who is carrying his bags, and there is an endless stream of people passing by Zhen Sheng, who are carrying and carrying all kinds of grains on their backs. When he walked in, he saw all kinds of miscellaneous grains on both sides, and the bags were piled up in the middle, and all kinds of bargaining and asking for prices followed.

A woman with an explosive head twisted through the hall and came to Zhen Sheng. looked Zhen Sheng up and down, and then asked with some doubts.

"You are the boss of the Zhen family?"

Zhen Sheng nodded, although the writhing woman was a little familiar, he really couldn't remember what to shout. Seeing Zhen Sheng nodding, the woman rolled her eyes and turned away nonchalantly.

"Come with me, Zhen boy. ”

The woman then whispered something, Zhen Sheng didn't hear it clearly, but followed her through the hall, the small door of the hall connected to a short corridor, and the end of the corridor looked like a two-story building with a sense of age. From that room, from time to time, melodious Peking Opera came. The woman in front pushed open the door and walked in, followed by Zhen Sheng. As soon as she entered the room, the woman put her hands on her waist and yelled.

"Chen Qiucheng, you old immortal! Your niece and son-in-law are here! Don't get out of here yet!"

Zhen Sheng was a little blindsided, but he didn't expect this woman to be so short-tempered. As the saying goes, a woman's face is like a book, and she will turn it when she says it. What's more, he is still guarding outsiders, but at this time, Zhen Sheng also knew that this woman was the third aunt, but he yelled at the third uncle Chen Qiucheng like this...... I'm afraid it's going to turn the sky upside down in the village. No wonder I felt a little familiar just now, and the third aunt who was dressed up was really different from the past.

I saw the third uncle Chen Qiucheng rushing out of the inner room, and the third uncle with a big back was only wearing a white half-sleeved gown, coarse cloth pants and slippers. It was a little funny, but after he came out of the inner room, he also learned from the third aunt to stand straight with his waist pinched.

"What are you yelling about, don't you know how to give me some face when guarding my niece and son-in-law?"

"I'll give you face! I think the old lady is giving you face!"

As soon as the third uncle Chen Qiucheng finished speaking, the third aunt took two steps forward and grabbed his ears and twisted them. The third uncle covered the third aunt's hand with both hands, his upper and lower teeth kept chattering, and an intermittent "pain" popped out of his mouth... It hurts..."

"Third uncle, third aunt. I interjected, it was quite busy outside. I'll put my things down and go to the front to help. ”

Zhen Sheng felt that he was in the way here, and as he said that, he put his bags behind the door. I ran away, and as soon as I went out, I heard something squirming in the house.

"Chen Qiucheng, you are bold! Let outsiders come to our house without my consent? That kid doesn't understand any etiquette, and he really doesn't know how his father and mother taught him. When I saw my mother, I didn't even know what the third aunt was called? You still let him come here? The old people in the family are county-level cadres! The children of county-level cadres need to go out to work?...

"Shuzhen, how can you say that Zhen Sheng is like this?

"Hmph, don't come to this set, I'm not as easy to fool as your old Chen family. His family is poor. Xicun is a poor place, what kind of people can ...?"

Zhen Sheng, who didn't go far, listened to it with a lot of ears, and his heart was very uncomfortable. He remembers that he used to go to the county to live in the county when he was a child. But later, the family moved to Xicun, and they rarely went to the county again. And now the third aunt's words behind her back made Zhen Sheng feel that she couldn't stand the older generation in the family. The feeling of being under the fence came naturally. Alas, besides, the third uncle Chen Qiucheng asked him to come in order to help himself. I can't live up to his kindness.

Zhen Sheng went to the front hall and watched the flow of people coming and going. He was thinking, thinking about what he was going to do. In business, the capital is only more than 300 yuan, and the part-time job can't support the family.

…

Soon, it was evening. Although the reception banquet arranged by the third uncle for himself was not very rich, it was enough to make Zhen Sheng, who was tired of traveling, feel satisfied. After being full of wine and food, he came to the room arranged by the third aunt for herself, Zhen Sheng put his bags aside, and fell asleep on the bed in a daze. This night was very quiet, Zhen Sheng hadn't slept so comfortably for a long time. And when he woke up, it was already noon the next day.

Zhen Sheng decided to go to the third uncle Chen Qiucheng to say hello first, this night's rest also made Zhen Sheng's head a lot clearer, instead of sitting at home and feeling sad, it is better to go out and go around, maybe there will be something to gain, some things are not waiting for them. Standing at the door of the third uncle's room, he knocked lightly.

"Come in. ”

Zhen Sheng pushed open the door and walked in, the third uncle was not dressed so casually today than yesterday, and Chen Qiucheng was sitting at the desk at this time looking through something. Zhen Sheng didn't ask, he bowed to Chen Qiucheng.

"Third uncle, I'll go out for a walk. ”

"Aren't you eating breakfast? It's almost noon, don't you have a mouth?"

The third uncle smiled and looked concerned.

"Thank you, third uncle, I'm not very hungry yet. I went out first. ”

Zhen Sheng thanked Chen Qiucheng and then went out. Looking at the guests in the front hall, Zhen Sheng felt quite uncomfortable. When can I have such a stable place? At the same time, I have to say that Chen Qiucheng is a very brainy person. After going out to do business for two years, there are really a few people who can do such a prosperous job, if it weren't for Guo Shuzhen, Zhen Sheng really wanted to ask the third uncle Chen Qiucheng for advice.

Zhen Sheng walked along Xingfu Road, looking at the number of customers in the stores on both sides of the street. After two laps, he also had a rough idea in his heart, the reason why Xingfu Road was busy was because there were many outsiders who came here to wholesale things, and most of the stores here were engaged in wholesale, except for a few snack bars, that is, the bun building that was not introduced by the one-eyed old man that day was relatively busy. Come to think of it, most of the people who come to buy goods are far away, and the prices of the things sold in the car are not cheap. Many people eat nearby only when they arrive at the place. The consumption in this place is not low, and the buns in Baozilou cost more than 20 yuan a catty. When Zhen Sheng decided to go back to the groceries shop, several merchants on the side of the road caught his attention.

The group of three sat on the side of the road, and the older man pulled out a coarse cloth bag from his bosom. The coarse cloth bag looked bulging and seemed to have some weight. He carefully opened the folded cloth bag layer by layer, as if he was afraid that the contents would fall. After a while, a few yellow buns appeared in his hand, and he distributed these yellow buns to the two people around him, Zhen Sheng leaned over unconsciously, only to hear the person who shared the buns talk again.

"When you go out, you can save a little bit. The buns we brought out at home will be eaten, and we will eat good ones when we go home, this thing is not cheap. Eat a meal, our trip is in vain. ”

Zhen Sheng suddenly felt a flash of inspiration in his brain! Yes, why didn't he think of it? Most of them are people who come from poverty, and they are reluctant to eat good food, and there will always be people who eat steamed buns! If the price is right, there should be many people who buy it!

What I lack most now is the capital, where can I get the capital! No! Maybe I already have the capital! What I lack is to take action! The third uncle Chen Qiucheng's family is a dry grain, and his family has white and yellow noodles! Moreover, the third uncle's family has an endless stream of guests every day, isn't it a good source of customers? Zhen Sheng patted his head, he should have thought of it a long time ago!

I don't know if I can make money, but I have to give it a try. The barefoot one is not afraid of wearing shoes, it is better to break the kettle and sink the boat to him once! Thinking of this, Zhen Sheng trotted back to the Xinglong Grain Shop.
