Before leaving, Lu Li deliberately found a Sunday, booked a table in the Tian (Tianjin) Duck Building, and invited the Xu family, the Liang family, and the Cao family to one place, and at the same time accompanied him and his aunt.

There is only one purpose of the treat, thank Xu Yunjian, Cao Xun, Liang Wei, Liang Xin and brothers for their help in the past few months, and send a big red envelope to each family, 200 yuan each! The most is the Liang family, a total of 400.

Twenty sheets of unity were placed in an envelope, a small bag of bulging bags, and Father Xu opened it and was surprised! Turning his head to look around, the parents of several families were also shocked and inexplicable, "Xiaoxiao, what are you...... What's going on? ”

"I'll explain them to you one by one in a moment." Lu Li picked up his wine glass and drank it all, "Uncles and aunts, you all know that in the past two months, I have made a small business and sold a few clothes. Among them, in addition to the help of Xu Yunjian, Cao Xun, Liang Wei, and Liang Xin, several uncles and aunts also contributed a lot. Let's just talk about Uncle Cao and Aunt Cao, right? lent me the three wheels at home; Aunt Xu, help me get the pennant; Not to mention the Liang family, Aunt Liang cooked for our brother to eat, she was afraid that the weather would be hot and things could not be put away, so she got up early in the morning to buy and cook them, and then asked Liang Wei to send them to us. Our brothers know these feelings in their hearts, and I also remember them! At that time, it was a mess, let's not mention it, but now that the business has come to an end for the time being, I have to make up for this situation! ”

Cao's father was the first to stand up, "I can't represent others, I will speak on behalf of our family, this matter is not good!" Xiaoxiao, let's not mention Cao Xun and what happened when you were in school, just say that when you went to the countryside, you didn't take care of him, in 76 years, without you, our second child would be gone! Is it a three-round loan? Don't say that he has been classmates with you for so many years, just say that last time you bought coal for our house, you can use it casually for three rounds! We can't ask for this money. If you have to let us take it, you can take it back, and you won't go to our Cao family in the future! ”

Father Cao's words provoked some people at the banquet to scold in their hearts! What large cloves of garlic are in them? You don't want it, I still want it! But as soon as such words are spoken, it is not good for others to have other expressions, and they take turns to say that the money cannot be taken!

Lu Li pushed for a long time, and finally nodded, "Then let's do it, I want to find a way to come out, what about this money, put it with you for the time being, I have to go to Yangcheng once recently, and I have something to deal with." When I get there, the matter is settled, I can continue to do it, you get the money back, but not for me, count you as a partner, I'll give you a note, and give you dividends at 50% of the interest for a year. ”

"Huh?"

"Let me make an analogy, I borrowed 400 yuan from the Liang family, and I will give you 50% interest a year, that is, 200 yuan a year! When you say you don't want to do it anymore and want to return, as of which year, I will return the interest and principal of the year. What do you think? ”

These people don't know the vocabulary of dividends, but two hundred yuan a year? That's a great price at the time! It's worth more than three months of Liang's father's salary! "Xiaoxiao, are you serious?"

"Of course it's true, but if I can't do it in Yangcheng, then there is no way, you can only take these two hundred. There will be no dividends. ”

"Okay, that's it." Father Liang and Father Cao glanced at each other and nodded briskly, "We all listen to you, young and old." ”

Father Xu felt that something was wrong, what is a dividend? Do you understand these two pieces of material, just shout good? Or is it best to hold the money in your hands? Look at this, look at that, he secretly hates that he hasn't read any books, obviously he has something in his stomach, but he can't say it! "That, Tiny?"

"Uncle Xu, what's wrong?"

"I don't understand, can you tell me about it?"

"Actually, it's similar to a deposit bank, but the interest rate is much higher." Luli said: "If you give me these two hundred, I will pay you back one hundred a year, regardless of whether I lose or earn." This is roughly called dividends. ”

"Then if you make it, it's okay, but what if you lose it? Don't we have two hundred? ”

"Dad, what do you say? Can Xiaoxiao pay for it? How good is his brain? ”

Lu Li waved his hand and smiled, "Uncle Xu is right, originally, doing business is to lose money and make money." So, if you don't agree, you don't have to take a stake, I'll give it to you now? ”

Dad Xu couldn't wipe his face anymore, and smiled, "Xiaoxiao, don't worry about it, I didn't say I didn't believe you, nor did I say I had to take your money, wasn't I just a little worried?" ”

"I understand, Uncle Xu, we have been two for so many years, what do we need to hide?" Luli smiled and said, "Yes! Take the two hundred back, and don't mention anything about it—let's drink!" ”

Father Xu laughed happily, "Uncle loves to listen to this, drink, drink!" ”

*****************************************************

The meal was hearty and satisfying, and the banquet was dispersed, Xu's father drank a little too much, let his wife support him, and staggered out of the restaurant, "Little ......, this is the way it is today...... Come back to Uncle, let's go on...... Drink! ”

"Didn't say that, can you? I'll send you back? ”

"No, no." The Xu family and his wife walked away from afar, Lu Li turned his head, and several other families were still standing on the side of the road, and Xu Yunjian was even closer to him, "Little ......"

"You wait a minute." Lu Li sent off the invited guests one by one, set a date for the next visit to the house, and watched them go away with Yu Fang, and after a while, only Cao Xun, Xu Yunjian, and Liang Wei were left, "Xiaoxiao, my father's ...... Don't worry, I'll talk to him when I go back, really, let me say him, okay? I've never seen it before! ”

Lu Liyang gave Xu Yunjian a neck slip with his hand, "You don't talk nonsense!" When will it be your turn to be a son and say Lao Tzu? I don't think you know what to do! ”

"You don't blame me, huh? Why don't Uncle Cao and Uncle Liang take the money, just take it? It's not ......"

Luli smiled back, "Let's go, let's talk as we go." He said: "Uncle Xu took the money back, although I didn't think of this in advance, but to be honest, it is a favor for people to agree, and it is their duty to disagree, and from my point of view, there is no complaint." ”

"What kind of favor, duty? What did they do, just take two hundred? ”

"You don't understand, it's not because they did what they did -- not to mention what I just said, but for no reason -- to save face on your brothers, what about it? How many years have we buddies been? But that's the money? ”

"So, what about my dad?"

"Uncle Xu, don't worry, don't ask after you go home, the money is given to him, he can spend it as much as he likes, Xu Yunjian, don't talk." Got it? ”

"Understand, aren't you just afraid that my dad has an idea?"

Lu Li nodded and said to Cao Liang, "What about you?" Any thoughts? ”

"You've done it all there, what else can I say?" Cao Xun grinned and said, "But seriously, Xiaoxiao, your hand is so high, high, really high!" Really, it's not me praising you, you're doing this, it's also paving the way for me -- if I really want to come out of the post office in the future, my parents won't say it. ”

Lu Li smiled knowingly, "Liang Xin, Liang Wei, what about the two of you?" ”

Liang Wei blinked and asked, "I just think, is 50% too high?" ”

"The base itself is low. If you really take too much, I might have to cut the price. As he spoke, he suddenly turned around and ran away, and after a while, he turned back again, holding a few popsicles in his hands, "Come on, cool and cool." ”

Cao Xun gulped the popsicle and asked vaguely, "Xiaoxiao, I heard that you are going to Yangcheng?" Shall I go with you? ”

"Forget it this time, it's enough to have the three of us. And this time, the main thing is to talk about things, and when the matter is settled, I'll take you next time - oh, I may telegraph you from there, and you can keep an eye on something. ”

Xu Yunjian asked, "What about me?" ”

"You still have to work hard to go to school, don't be so out of tune all the time. While Liang Wei and Liang Xin are here, they will make up for the class. ”

Liang Wei asked on the side, "What about us?" ”

"You guys, it's almost time to start school, and when school starts, you're ...... That's right. I'll go back and give you the rest of the clothes, and you wear them to school, and change them every day or a few days, and whoever asks you, you will be responsible for introducing me to them, and it will be an advertisement. Also, I'll give you a discount, you bring a classmate, sell a piece of clothing, no matter how cheap or expensive the dress is, as long as you sell one, I'll give you five cents. ”

"It's only five cents?"

"How many people do you know at Tian (Tianjin) University? And that's not even counting the teachers - I'm not just going to sell women's clothes, but also men's clothes. Do the math yourself, how much can you earn in a month? ”

Although Liang Wei is smart and educated, he is still not as good as Lu Li in this regard, and he can't hear how much he is tired of what he says, and he is immersed in the beautiful blueprint of the future: a hundred people is 50 yuan! When school starts, I'll have to do it! She just thought, and the popsicle in her hand melted drippingly, and it all flowed into her hand.

"Little brother, what about me?"

"It's none of your business. Oh, I remembered. Lu Li took out an envelope from his pocket, "This is the hundred I gave you, you take it to Beijing (Beijing), school, food, hospitality and so on all have to spend money, not enough ......, you may not be able to open your mouth, so let's do it, a semester, I will give you a hundred yuan, spend what you should spend, the man is outside, don't hold back." ”

"Little brother, this ......"

Liang Wei screamed, "Little Si'er, I think you dare to take it?" ”

Lu Li ignored her and stuffed the money into Liang Xin's hand, "Don't pay attention to your sister, listen to me!" ”

Liang Xin's beautiful face turned red, and tears were in his eyes, "Xiao...... Elder brother? ”

"If you call me brother, I will treat you as my brother. Take it, this money, plus a little from your parents and the school, should be enough for you to spend for a semester. In addition to my classmates, the teacher's ......, I haven't been to college, I don't understand these departments, grades or whatever, anyway, your teacher has something to do with your course, you should see it, don't be a cat in the dormitory all day long, let people see it ignorant, you know? ”

"But why is that?"

"Why? I can't say it right now, just make friends, there is no harm in having more friends. Oh, there are two more things, first, after you go back, try to be as active as possible, things in the class and grade, whether you should be in charge of it or not, meddle more, and it won't tire you to do some work. ”

Liang Xin naturally only agreed, "Then, what about the second?" ”

"Second, it's a bit early to say this, if you do well and do your homework, the school may keep you teaching at the school. In other words, if you stay in college and become a teacher after graduation, this must be your junior or senior year, and I will give you a vaccination - if there is such a thing, you must not agree to it right away. I have to go home and ask my family for their opinions, understand? You can't get back to someone right away anyway, remember? ”

"This ...... Why is that? ”

Cao Xun raised his hand and slapped him, "Where are you so much?" Just listen to the novel! ”

Lu Li smiled, "Let me tell you this, Liang Xin, I put so much effort and effort into it, but it's not as simple as cultivating you to become a university teacher!" I still have a big game to think about for your future! Let's see where you are assigned after graduation. ”

Liang Xin wanted to ask again, but Liang Wei hugged her younger brother's shoulder, "Obedient, little four, listen to Lu Li, when the time comes, he may take the initiative to tell you." ”

Several people talked all the way into the alley, Xu Yunjian no longer stayed, rode home, and Cao Xun also waved goodbye. The remaining two sisters and brothers accompanied him to the gate of the small courtyard, Liang Wei and his younger brother whispered a few words, and sent him away first, "Lu Li? I have a few words for you. ”

"Yes?"

"My brother's business, I thank you. Really, my mom and dad didn't have such a brainstorm for him,......"

"I still say the same thing, I regard Liang Xin as a younger brother, as long as he listens to me in the future, the way forward will be wider and wider!"

Liang Wei smiled and nodded, "There is one more thing, that is, me and ...... Zhao Min ......"

Lu Li's heart jumped disobediently, since the last time Cao Xun made a slip of the tongue, this kind of thing has become a pimple in his heart, "That...... Liang Wei, wait until I come back from Yangcheng, right? We all ...... Think about it? ”

"Okay." Liang Wei agreed very happily, "To be honest, Lu Li, I don't know what you think, but I have thought about it before, I am a college student, and you are self-employed - don't get me wrong, I don't mean to look down on you." ”

"I understand that it's not a matter of being looked down upon, you're just stating a fact."

"That's right, that's the truth." Liang Wei shook her head vigorously and raised her voice a little, "But today, my concept has changed, not because of your dividends, nor because of your love for helping my brother, but because of you as a person!" You...... Speak decently, do things beautifully, and be affectionate and righteous to others,...... So, as long as you ...... I would like to say, no matter where you go, I will follow you! ”

“…………”

"Think about it, I'm leaving."

Watching the girl walk into the darkness, Luli's heart was in turmoil.

Back at home, Yu Fang hadn't rested yet, and was sitting in the yard smoking alone, "Are you back?" ”

"Hey, I'm back."

"Xiaoxiao, I have something to say to you."

"Oh." Luli moved a small Mazha and sat next to his aunt, "What's the matter?" ”

"Why didn't you tell me about such a big thing? Good guy, you're really generous now, huh? One gives 200? Why do they give so much? ”

Lu Li guessed a little, smiled lightly, picked up the cigarette and handed it to Yu Fang, "Auntie, I had planned for this matter, and I didn't tell you that I was afraid that you would worry." ”

"Can I not be worried? You get up early every day and work in the dark, that Cao Xun, I can help you for a few days, what is that Xu Yunjian doing? Good guy, no one else takes it, just his father, it's a big person, what have you seen? It's all in the eyes of money! Unpromising! ”

"Auntie, it's like this, the money given to them is considered an investment method, how can you say it? You can also see it, I am busy every day now, sometimes I am really tired, this time I gave the money, and Cao Xun came to help me in the future, and he couldn't say anything to his parents; The other one, the money is said to be given to them, and in the end? Except for Uncle Xu who took 200, didn't everyone else get their money back? I also brought a helper with me - the 100 yuan dividend at the end of the year, don't worry, this money is a decimal after all, and I can afford it; The last one, think about it, they don't take a penny out, and at the end of the year, they will have an extra hundred yuan, where can such a good thing be found? In the future, if I need it again, for example, ask them to borrow money, so I can ask, right? ”

Yu Fang didn't understand much of what he said, but the main meaning was that he understood, and the woman gave him a blank look, "You, there's no such thing as you!" I'll tell you, Xiaoxiao, you can't do it again! How can anyone not tell the adults in the family and make their own decisions? Do you hear that? ”

"Hey, hey!" Lu Li hurriedly agreed, "Auntie, I'll help you in and rest—smoke less, this thing is no good!" ”
