Chapter Seventy-Eight: Retrospective

As the social environment became more and more complex at that time, Wang Quantai's grandfather's business was also affected to a certain extent. However, he still didn't know how to restrain at all, and continued to live a drunken life.

There is a good saying: you will only spend but not earn, and you will eat all the gold and silver. As the days passed, the property of Wang Quantai's grandfather also shrank day by day, and it didn't take long for the chic days to follow.

The so-called trees are scattered, and the birds are thrown into the forest, as the votes in the hands of Wang Quantai's grandfather are getting fewer and fewer, and those wine and meat friends around him are gradually avoiding him.

At first, he still had money to borrow wine to relieve his sorrows, but in the end, he even refused to give credit to the tavern.

He also asked his relatives to borrow money, at the beginning of his relatives read that he was still a member of the Wang family, and it was not good for him to be too ugly, so they paid for him, but he was not angry, and he still ate, drank, prostitute and gambled after taking the money, so later, the family also avoided him like a plague god, even on the street, and when he saw him from afar, he had to try his best to avoid it.

And Grandpa Wang Quan himself is becoming more and more decadent, the whole person has a scruffy beard, his eyes are dull, and he is drunk all day long, and his appearance is no different from the ruffians who used to pat him on the back.

It was one afternoon, drunk as usual, and stumbled all the way back to the little rented house, which had long since been taken over by him, and his parents had died of death due to his profligacy.

Now in his tattered home, there is only an old cook who is over half a hundred years old, and his daughter-in-law who never leaves.

When he arrived at the door, he habitually opened the door, got into the bedroom, and began to sleep with his head covered.

At this time, his daughter-in-law happened to come back from shopping for groceries, and when she saw him drunk and unconscious in the bedroom, she was so angry that she had tears in her eyes.

However, she was originally born in a scholarly family, and she would not cry, make trouble, and hang herself. I could only cry silently while complaining to him: "Look at what kind of life you are living now?

Wang Quan's grandfather was also confused at that time, and listened to a few complaints from his daughter-in-law. jumped up directly from the bed and scolded: "You ungrateful mother-in-law, even if this is the case, are you freezing and starving you?

Seeing him angry, his daughter-in-law didn't dare to say anything. I could only sit on a stool and cry in a low voice.

He listened to the cries of his daughter-in-law and listened to the annoyance, scolded and got up from the bed, and slammed the door directly.

As soon as he walked out of the house, he found himself penniless, he cursed "bad luck" and began to wander aimlessly through the streets.

Just as he staggered to the mouth of an alley, a man reached out from the alley, grabbed his arm, and dragged him into the alley - the sudden change really startled him, and he just wanted to break free. I heard a hoarse male voice in my ear: "But Wang Shoude?"

Wang Quan's grandfather was stunned for a moment when he heard this--Wang Shoude is the name of Wang Quan's grandfather.

Wang Shoude was a little puzzled: People who usually knew him avoided him, why did someone take the initiative to find him today?

Although he felt a little strange in his heart, he did not delay, and while turning to look at the place where the voice came from, he said: "It is Wang Shoude below, I don't know who Your Excellency is, what are you looking for me?"

Wang Shoude turned around, and a strange but somewhat familiar face met his eyes—only behind him. There was a middle-aged man standing, the man was not tall, about 1.7 meters, and he was lean. His skin was dark and yellow, his face was ordinary, only the eyes embedded in his face flashed with a brilliance that made him palpitate.

Looking at the middle-aged man who grabbed him, Wang Shoude's heart sank slightly: with his many years of experience in doing business, he could see that although this person looked ordinary. But it's definitely not simple, looking at his sharp eyes, you know that this person is a practitioner.

But I don't think I've ever met him, how did he know his name, and what was the matter with finding himself?

Just when Wang Shoude was searching but couldn't think of a possibility, the thin man standing opposite him stared into his eyes and said again: "There is a business, I don't know if you are interested?"

Listening to his hoarse voice, Wang Shoude said again: Looking for him to talk about business?

Immediately, Wang Shoude, who started in business, subconsciously asked, "What business?"

After listening to Wang Shoude's question, the thin man did not answer him immediately, but looked him up and down, and after a while, he stared at Wang Shoude tightly, and said coldly: "The business with the head tied to the belt of the trousers." ”

Wang Shoude was taken aback when he heard this: what he usually does is the business of upside down, and he has never thought of ruining people's lives, let alone his own life.

Although he is now poor, he is not enough to take his own

Xiao Ming is joking, not to mention that he has never even seen this person, and what kind of life-saving business he does with a person he doesn't know, then he is really sick in the brain.

Therefore, Wang Shoude didn't even ask in detail, and directly waved his hand at the thin man impatiently: "Don't do it, don't do it, I'm not tired of it, I'm not interested, you better ask another master." ”

With that, he turned to leave. At this time, the lean man spoke again: "It's the same family, don't you listen to me?"

When Wang Shoude heard this, he immediately turned around, his eyes full of surprise: "What? You said that you are also from the Wang family?"

Wang Shoude said as he spoke, and his mind was also recalling rapidly: No wonder he felt that this person was familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere, it turned out that he was also from the Wang family......

Wang Shoude stood in place, carefully searching for memories about this person in his mind, and finally remembered that this person, as if he had come to his wedding, should indeed be his family.

The thin man saw that Wang Shoude was a little hesitant, so he continued to open his mouth and tempted: "The family doesn't talk about two families, in fact, although this matter is dangerous, it is not to let you go into danger alone, there will be someone in the family who will go with you, and if you can really do this, the family will also give you a large sum of money, which is estimated to be enough for you to squander in the rest of your life."

The so-called wealth is in danger, and the partners are a family, where do you find such a good deal? How about it, are you interested?"

Wang Shoude listened to the words of this lean man, and then thought about his bad life now, he was really a little moved, but after years of ups and downs in the business world, he had not lost his last vigilance - as an old and cunning trader, he knew the truth that pie could not fall from the sky.

Wang Shoude struggled in his heart for a while, and decided to observe and observe first, and then make plans.

After thinking about it, he said to the lean man with some hesitation: "This is really a good deal, but this matter is too big, I have to discuss it with my daughter-in-law......"

After hearing this, the thin man's expression was slightly disappointed, and he smiled and said: "Yes, such a big thing should be considered carefully," the thin man said this, and gradually retracted his smile, his eyes were like torches, staring at Wang Shoude tightly, and continued: "However, there is also a time limit for consideration, I will give you three days, and after three days, if you think this deal is okay, then see you downstairs in South Street City at three o'clock in the morning." ”

After the thin man said that, he no longer hesitated, turned around and left, leaving Wang Shoude alone standing at the mouth of the alley in a daze......

After a long time, Wang Shoude came to his senses and left the alley in a bit of confusion.

At this time, he had no intention of drinking at all, and his mind was full of thoughts, and while he was thinking carefully in his mind, he moved his steps and walked home.

As soon as he pushed the door in, he heard the old lady who was in charge of cooking in the house shouting excitedly: "Madam, ma'am!

He was originally preoccupied, but when he listened to his mother's shouting, he suddenly felt a little upset, so he opened his mouth and drank: "Mother Liu, what's so strange about me coming back, what are you fussing about?"

Before he could finish speaking, Mother Liu had already jumped out of the house - I saw her round face with wrinkles and accumulations turned red, her short and fat body trembled a little because of excitement, her calloused hands kept wiping on the shabby apron because of nervousness, and there were even tears flashing in her cloudy eyes, she stared at Wang Shoude for a long time, relieved her excitement, and said with some trembling words: "Palm, shopkeeper, madam, madam, she ......"

Listening to the mention of his daughter-in-law in Liu's mother's words, Wang Shoude was so anxious that he shouted: "If you have something to say, you have to die in a hurry!"

Mother Liu was already in tears at this time, she wiped her tears with her rough hands, and said in a choked voice: "Looking forward to the stars and the moon, finally looking forward to this day, the shopkeeper, you want to be a father! Mrs. She has a baby!" )
