Chapter 458: The Children of Educated Youth (2)
Fortunately, in addition to the exquisite food in the space, there are some coarse food to fill the stomach, Yao Huang expected that the children would not prepare too much food, and before leaving, she put the food into the rattan basket she made and carried it on her back, which won the praise and gratitude of all the children. After a day and a night of driving, they arrived at Rongcheng, the largest city in the southwest. Except for Yao and Huang, all the others had to transfer to Shanghai. Yao Huang secretly filled the rattan basket with a few more baked cakes and sweet potatoes, leaving the basket for the children. She took Chunni and another boy out of the train station.
The boy's name is An Yonghui, Chunni is the same age, and he is a taciturn boy. Both of his parents were educated youths, and in order to return to the city, they gave Xiao Yonghui to a local childless couple for adoption. The couple was very good to An Yonghui earlier, but later they had their own children, and An Yonghui became dispensable. An Yonghui's personality has also slowly fallen silent from the previous liveliness.
"Erya, where are we going?" An Yonghui and Chunni came to the big city for the first time, and they were panicked and scared.
"Do you know the addresses of your biological parents?" Yao Huang asked.
The two nodded, An Yonghui's biological parents had sent him money, and he stole the remittance slip when he left, and Chunni inquired about the whereabouts of her biological father from her mother's mother's family.
"Then you sit here and wait for me for a while, and I'll be back when I go."
"What are you going to do?" Chunni asked worriedly, she was afraid that Yao Huang would leave them.
"I'm going to get some money."
None of the three of them had a penny on them, which made it difficult for them to move around in the big city, but now they had to get the money quickly.
Yao Huang took a turn around the vicinity of the railway station square. Finally saw a gold shop. Walked in.
"Is the boss there?" Yao Huang asked.
"I am. Little girl, what's the matter with you? If you don't buy something, you will go out! The middle-aged man was full of impatience, looking at this girl's dress, she was a poor ghost, how could she afford to buy gold jewelry.
"Do you collect gold here?" Yao Huang was holding a pair of gold earrings in her hand, which she had turned out from the corner of the space, and they were the least valuable.
"Of course!" The man's gaze was attracted by the gold earrings, and a hint of greed flashed in them, "You can't have stolen this thing, right?" ”
Yao Huang said lightly: "You can call the police." See if I stole it. ”
"It's good not to steal!" A trace of surprise flashed in the man's eyes, he wanted to scare this girl, and then buy the gold earrings at a super low price, but he didn't expect this girl to be so calm and calm, not like a dirt bun that had just come from the countryside. I walked away.
"Forty dollars a gram." The man took the gold earrings in his hand and carefully checked them, and checked the fineness, and found that the gold content was very good, and he was happy in his heart, but he looked disgusted on the surface.
"The price of gold announced by the state is fifty-five yuan a gram, boss. Don't you feel like you're giving too little? ”
Even knowing the gold price announced by the state, the middle-aged man was sure that he was really blind.
"Gold recycling cannot be done at the price published by the state. We have to earn what we have. Or, how much do you say? ”
"Fifty yuan a gram, you make too much." Yao Huang had a plan and directly quoted a price.
"Deal!" The middle-aged man agreed, and indeed as Yao Huang said, he made a lot of money in the whole transaction.
The gold earrings totaled a little more than fifteen grams, and Yao Huang wiped off the change and took away 750 yuan directly.
"Boss, you must be honest in doing business in the future." Yao Huang stepped on a brick in front of the gold shop—the boss used it to reach the door—and left in a dashing manner. The bricks turned to powder under the boss's horrified gaze.
"It's really blinding!" The middle-aged boss wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
……
Chunni and An Yonghui sat on the steps outside the train station, staring ahead, and when they saw Yao Huang's figure appear, they immediately ran over.
"Erya, you're finally back!" Chunni's anxious heart relaxed.
"Well, now that we have money, let's go eat something and find a hotel to stay in."
"Where did you get the money?" An Yonghui asked.
"I sold the gold earrings my mother left for me and got a lot of money." Yao Huang said a lie that he had thought of for a long time, "It was a token of love from my father to my mother, and my mother kept hiding it, so my uncle and uncle didn't know what to do." ”
Yao Huang led the two of them to the snack bar and ate a big bowl of beef noodles by themselves, the prices in this era are really cheap, even if the prices near the train station are higher than other places, the three of them only spent three yuan to eat with bulging bellies.
Then led the three of them to take the bus, the two teenagers and girls had never taken the bus, and they were a little bit of the same hand and foot in the same way.
"Where to go?" The conductor glanced at the three of them with disdain, and cut, three country buns.
"Go to Slots Street." Yao Huang bought three tickets. The reason why she went to Kok Zi Street was her plan, and she decided to buy a house in Jiao Zi Street. Yao Huang had a classmate in his previous life who was an authentic Rong adult, and his family lived in Jiaozi Street. According to him, in the near future, Jiaozi Street will be demolished, and one old house can be replaced by two new buildings, with a façade. Yao Huang will not return to her biological father - that man can abandon his wife and daughter for the sake of his future, how can he recognize her as an oil bottle now - let alone return to his uncle's house to be bullied again, she wants to stay in the city and start a new life on her own. This era is an era of rapid development, and with her more than 20 years of memory, she will definitely be able to mix with this era.
Yao Huang took two young men and women to stay at a hotel on Jiaozi Street, and after dinner, she called them to her room.
"You have the money!" Yao Huang gave a family of two people one hundred and fifty yuan.
"We can't take your money!" An Yonghui resolutely refused to accept it, and Chunni also kept shaking her head.
"Take it! Your biological parents' families don't know what the situation is, and you can use the money to make an emergency. But be careful, and don't let anyone else know that you have so much money. It's not that I'm talking badly, and in a state where I don't understand anything, I can't do without the heart of defense! Yao Huang stuffed the money into the hands of the two people.
"I borrowed this money from you, and I will pay it back to you later." An Yonghui said.
"Me too!"
……
On the second day and the third day, Yao Huang took two young men and women to play around the major scenic spots in Rongcheng, and took them to the most famous clothing wholesale market Lotus Pond and Chunxi Road to buy a few clothes. The three people who changed into new clothes were no different from city children.
On the fourth day, An Yonghui and Chunni left Jiaozi Street alone with a map of the city. (To be continued......)
