Chapter 1: Selling Watermelons
"Got it, got it!" At about 11 o'clock in the morning in late June, in the southern city of Bayi City, it was humid and stuffy, and there were few passers-by along the way, and pedestrians would not choose this time to go out. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
At the gate of a vegetable market in the north of Bayi City, a tall, thin, shirtless, and pitch-black young man was standing next to a three-wheeled motorcycle, with about 20 watermelons in the body!
"Do you want watermelon?" When the young man saw a middle-aged woman coming, he immediately asked.
"Still selling watermelons here, it's such a hot day, let's go back!" The middle-aged woman came over and said to the young man.
"Hey, there's not a lot left! I'll go back when it's sold out. The young man said with a smile. At the same time, there was a towel to wipe the sweat running down the neck.
"Let's come to two, I can't finish eating at home if I have more, so I'll come to you to buy it after eating!" The middle-aged woman said.
"Hey, thank you!" The young man said with a smile.
"Hu Bo, send two to me, it's hot!" At this time, the owner of a small store not far away, also shirtless, shouted at this side.
"Okay, wait a minute, I'll send it to you after I weigh this eldest sister!" The young man, Hu Bo, replied with a smile. At the same time, he held a watermelon in his hand and weighed it on the electronic scale.
"Eldest sister, 12 catties and 4 taels, 12 catties!" As soon as Hu Bo looked at the electronic scale, he said to the middle-aged woman. Then take another watermelon and put it on the scale.
"13 catties and 7 taels, 13 catties! A total of 25 pounds, 8 cents a pound, collect 20 for you! Hu Bo looked at the middle-aged woman who was smiling and said.
"Okay, come, here you go!" The middle-aged woman said.
"Wait a minute, I'll load it for you!" Hu Bo took the rope net he had prepared before, put a set on top of the watermelon, and then lifted it, and put on one watermelon, and then put another watermelon.
After setting it up, he took the money from the middle-aged woman's hand and said, "Charge you 20!" Eldest sister, after taking it home, it is okay to soak it in water, if you put it in the refrigerator, don't leave it for too long! ”
"Know! Thank you! The middle-aged woman left with two watermelons. Then, Hu Bin weighed two more watermelons and sent them to the shop.
"21 bucks!" Hu Bo said to the middle-aged shopkeeper.
"Okay!" The shopkeeper took out 21 yuan from the drawer and handed it to Hubo.
"Thank you!" Hubo took the money.
"Wait a minute, go to the refrigerator and get a bottle of cold mineral water, it's such a hot day, it's hot!" When the shopkeeper saw that Hu Bo was leaving, he immediately called out to Hu Bo.
"No, I brought water, thank you!" Hu Bo said with a smile, and walked to his three-wheeled motorcycle, and when he got there, he continued to stand under the shade of the tree, waiting for the next customer.
"This kid, if it's my son, I'd die of distress!" At this time, behind the shelves of the small store, a woman's voice came.
"What's the way, my mother is dead, and my younger brothers and sisters are dead, it's not easy!" The shopkeeper took the watermelon and put it in the freezer.
At this time, Hu Bo continued to sell watermelons outside, and after about 20 minutes, the watermelons were also finished, and Hu Bo rode a three-wheeled motorcycle and left, passing by a construction bank.
Hu Bo parked the car, dialed the key, and walked to the bank hall. Pushing open the door, a gust of cold wind hit, making Hu Bo feel comfortable and wanted to hum. Hu Bo got to the front of the automatic queuing machine, pressed it, pulled out the number, and then walked in and found a place to sit down, just enough to see his motorcycle, and also to see the TV on the wall.
"1706, Window 5!" Less than two minutes after Hu Bo sat down, there was a sound of a call in the bank hall, and Hu Bo stood up at this time and walked towards window No. 5.
"Ms. Wang Xinlan, Chairman of Fuhua Investment Company, attended the inaugural meeting of Fuhua Out-of-School Children Relief Fund today, and announced that Fuhua Investment Company donated 1 billion yuan to the fund to help..."
At this time, on the TV on the wall, such a piece of news was playing, and at this time, Hu Bo, when he heard a certain word, turned his head sharply and stared at the TV tightly, and the picture on the TV at this time happened to be Ms. Wang Xinlan, chairman of Fuhua Investment Company, at the press conference.
"No. 1706, go to window 5 to handle business. No. 1706, go to the 5 good window to handle business..."
"This, this!" Hu Bo heard the voice from the bank hall again, shouted, ran to the No. 5 window, and then took out a card, and then opened his waist bag, took out a few 100 cards from it, and seven or eight 50 cards, counted them, and handed them to the bank counter.
"Save 1,000 dollars!" Hu Bo handed over the card and money together, and the staff inside accepted it, and at this time, Hu Bo turned his head to look at the TV, and before he saw it for 10 seconds, the TV began to broadcast other news.
After making a deposit, Hu Bo put his card away, put away the slip, walked outside in a low voice, pushed open the door of the bank, and the heat wave outside also swooped over.
"Ha, help out-of-school children!" Hu Bo said in a mocking tone, then shook his head and walked towards the three-wheeled motorcycle,
At this time, it was already 11:20, Hu Bo rode a motorcycle to the gate of the High School Attached to Bayi City Normal University, found a place to stop the car, and then got a school uniform from the car, put it on his body, and was about to go inside. As soon as I passed through the small gate at the school gate, I was shouted.
"Wait, wait, who are you?" The doorman at the door shouted.
"Hehe, Brother Zhang, I'll go in and send something to my younger siblings!" Hu Bo smiled and said to the security guard who had just come out of the doorman.
"Hubo, go in!" The security guard saw that it was Hu Bo, waved his hand, and let him in, Hu Bo smiled and nodded his thanks, and trotted towards the teaching building of the first year of high school.
After reaching the second floor, Hu Bo poked his head out of the front door. The teacher who was lecturing also laughed when he saw that it was Hu Bo.
"Hu Jue, your brother is looking for you!" The teacher spoke, and at this time, a girl in the middle of the classroom stood up, also very thin, but very tall, 1.65 meters. After seeing that he was his brother, Hu Jue smiled and walked to the door, while Hu Bo retreated to the railing of the corridor.
"Brother, why are you here!" Hu Jue looked at his Hu Bo and said.
"I'll send you some money, don't you have any money?" Hu Bo said that, he took out 2 50 sheets from his waist bag and handed them to Hu Jue.
"You take 70, Xiao Rui takes 50!" Hu Bo said when he handed the money to Hu Jue.
"Brother, I still have money!" Hu Jue said.
"If you want to take it, take it, don't save it, my brother can make money! Eat well! Hu Bo said to Hu Jue.
"Oh, by the way, brother, I heard the teacher say that the college entrance examination results will come out tomorrow, where will you report then?" Hu Jue looked at Hu Bo and asked.
"The scores haven't come out, why are you thinking about this? We'll talk about it then! Alright, let's go in, I'll go back first! Hu Bo said directly at the wave of his hand.
"Oh!" Hu Jue heard Hu Bo say this, so he could only go back, and Hu Bo also walked back at this time, and when he arrived at the school gate, he said hello to the security guard, and Hu Bin came out.
