Chapter 3 Du Yuesheng's first pot of gold

"It turned out to be Brother Wu, where is Brother Wu going to make a fortune? Yo, how many brothers are here? ”

Du Yuesheng stepped forward to say hello, and the crab-like Brother Wu looked at Du Yuesheng provocatively, as if he was jealous of Zen or something, and did not make a move.

Chen Xuan just wanted to step forward, but was stopped by Sun Zhiheng, who shook his head.

"This is the housework of their Green Gang, and it's not easy for outsiders to interfere, and even if they fight, those cucumbers are not Ah Sheng's."

The young man surnamed Wu glanced at Du Yuesheng deeply again, and staggered away.

"Let Brother Xuan see the joke."

The three of them then walked forward, Du Yuesheng said.

"What's going on?"

Chen Xuan asked curiously.

"What else can I do, a mess in the gang, Grandpa Huang (Huang Jinrong) is ready to let me go to the casino in the French Concession, the surname Wu thinks I robbed him of his job, so he doesn't want to go with me, but he doesn't dare to go too far, my old man (Chen Shichang) is not easy to mess with."

"Then why don't you teach that bastard a lesson, the three men are still afraid of his crooked melons and cracked dates?"

"Forget it, that bastard also has a small background, and it's not worth it to get into trouble for a breath."

"Grass Niang, you don't care if I still care about a fart, tell me, where are you going now?"

"Let's go to the sixteenth shop first, and when I was down, I was still selling a pear over there。。。。。。

"Poof!" Sun Zhiheng laughed as he listened.

"What's going on?" Chen Xuan asked curiously.

"Ah Sheng, this kid is very ghostly, he started trading without a penny, made money, and gained a lot of fame."

"And here's it, let's hear about it."

Chen Xuan was even more curious.

"What's there to say, it's all about turning into sesame seeds and rotten grain. At that time, he had just come out of Dujia Village, what could a fourteen-year-old child do? After the little money brought by the family was spent, it was gone, and I slept under the overpass, and I could pout a night in the grass, and I shivered in the middle of the night, and I was very hungry, so I guarded the buckets of various restaurants, and it was too much to deal with it, and I did not do less to steal chickens and dogs, and I was not less beaten。。。。。 ”

Du Yuesheng seemed to have thought of something, his voice was slightly low, and a trace of memory flashed in his eyes, Chen Xuan patted him on the shoulder, and Du Yuesheng smiled to himself.

"Then why don't you go to find the wild cow, you know that the wild cow is in the county seat."

"Why didn't I look for it, at that time I was going to come to find the bull, and I thought that Shanghai was like Dujia Village, the east of the village shouted to the west and could be heard, but I didn't think of Shanghai and caught blind, I looked for several days, and the more than a dozen dollars on my body were also spent, and I wanted to go back, and I didn't even have the money to cross the river."

"And then?"

"Later, I thought, the big living people can't let the urine suffocate to death, I see others selling pears, so I go to help others carry the burden, selling, people are in a good mood, just reward me with a half of the nest, and when I am in a bad mood, kick me and tell me to get out, hehe!"

"That's it, I still haven't eaten a full meal for a long time, most of the time I drink water to get through, I sleep when I'm hungry, and I'm even more hungry when I wake up, Brother Xuan, you've never been hungry, I don't know how uncomfortable it feels, I'd rather be stabbed by someone else than experience that feeling again."

Through the glasses lenses without prescription, Du Yuesheng seemed to have some tears in his eyes, and he seemed to be afraid of being seen by others, so he turned his head slightly.

The three of them were a little tired from walking, so they found a tavern and asked for some food and sat down.

"And then you're going to sell pears yourself?"

Chen Xuan then asked, Chen Xuan didn't want to reveal other people's scars, he just wanted to know what his brother had experienced.

"Selling pears? How can it be so simple, I don't have a penny on me, and I have plucked up the courage to go on credit a few times, but no one has promised to give me credit, a fourteen or fifteen-year-old child who is not smart and full of tatters, who believes you. ”

The three of them touched a cup, and Du Yuesheng continued.

"Later, I saw that the warehouse where these pickers bought would pick some half-bad pears to feed the pigs or throw them away every day, but some of these pears were actually partially edible, so I stayed in the garbage dump or in the pig farm, and picked up these bad pears when others were not paying attention. That's where I lived! ”

Du Yuesheng pointed to a broken wooden bridge by the river outside the tavern, and the three of them had another drink.

"The pears were picked up, but this thing can't be sold, who would buy a rotten pear in a dirty and tattered dress? People who are so hungry that they don't like to eat fruit, the more they eat, the more hungry they get, and I have experience in this, so I peddled it for a few days and I knew that it would not work like this, so I ran to that house, oh, that's the family. ”

Du Yuesheng pointed to a house by the river.

"I went to his house and stole a clay basin and a knife, I washed the clay pot in the river, sharpened the knife on the stone until it was shining, washed the clothes on my body and hung them on the stones by the river, jumped into the river and took a bath honestly - it was so cold in the summer that year!"

Du Yuesheng sniffled carefully, and Chen and Sun also pretended not to see it, sometimes men need to talk instead of comfort and sympathy.

"So I peeled the pears I had picked up clean, and removed the bad parts, cut the pears into petals, each of which was the same size, and went to fetch well water, and soaked the pears in the well water of the tile pot, which was both beautiful and prevented from turning black."

Du Yuesheng's tone gradually increased.

"That's it, hehe, I ran to the dock and switched to the business of these dock workers, a penny and a watt pot, I can sell more than thirty wen on the first day, more than the people who carry the burden and walk the streets and alleys, and I don't need the cost, hehe!"

Du Yuesheng stood up and drank all the wine in the cup, with a twinkle in his eyes.

"I have to guard and pick rotten pears and sell them, I can't do it alone, but the most important thing on the beach is people, and now those boys with me are the ones who used to help me pick pears, I teach them how to peel pears, teach them how to sell, but I have rules!"

Du Yuesheng waved his hand vigorously, and the wine glass in his hand came out of his hand and fell far into the river.

"My rule is, you can wear tattered clothes, but you can't get dirty, and whoever gets dirty I'll out! This is the rule, my Du Yuesheng's rule! Who doesn't listen to who leaves, I myself have figured out a truth, people, how important this surface work is, so I used a month to earn money in addition to eating to buy a dress, I know that the scholar is respected so I made a set of scribe shirts, after wearing it, someone called me Mr. Xiao? Haha, little sir, last month I was still a rotten cub little red guy who broke down, Brother Xuan, they actually called me little sir! ”

Du Yuesheng grabbed Chen Xuande's arm, seemed to realize his gaffe in an instant, let go of his hand and sat down, and seemed to hold it in his heart for too long No one to talk to, after finishing speaking, his face was much calmer.

"Brother Xuan, do you look down on me?"

Chen Xuan looked at Du Yuesheng seriously.

"Brother, I admire you, really, I admire you! If I were in your shoes, I couldn't have done you so well. ”

Chen Xuan really admires that a fourteen-year-old child, who can do this, who can demand anything from him, and who dares to demand anything from him?

Without any experience, without any capital, living a precarious life, it is no exaggeration to say that Du Yuesheng is a genius, a marketing genius without a teacher! Even Chen Xuan, who has been passively exposed to all kinds of business information in the 21st century, does not dare to say that he can do this.

Chen Xuan picked up the wine glass, the two of them touched it and drank it all, the hot wine stimulated the taste buds, and the throat whistled, unable to say that it was not enjoyable, and then there was another glass.

"You use the food you get from feeding the pigs to sell to other people, so you're still a bad devil liar!"

Sun Zhiheng said coldly.

"Poof! Ahem, ahem, ahem! ”

Chen Xuan had wine spurting out of his mouth, and a wine mist appeared in front of him, Du Yuesheng was even more miserable, maybe he choked into his nose, and all the snot and tears came at once, but the dull one was swept away.

Later, many people saw that Du Yuesheng made money in this way, and they also learned to do it, so Du Yuesheng became the ancestor of selling fruit plates.

His reputation was also beaten out in this way, and then he was favored by Chen Shichang, the old man of the Green Gang, and he worshiped under his door, and Chen Shichang recommended Du Yuesheng to the Huang Mansion of the Qing Gang boss Huang Jinrong.

Du Yuesheng is very good at squandering money and getting into trouble, and he was favored by Huang Jinrong's wife Lin Guisheng and wanted him to manage the casino 'Gongxing Club' in the French Concession, which led to today's conflict with the surname Wu.

"What about the bull? What has Manniu done in the past few years? ”

Waiting for Du Yuesheng to come over, Chen Xuan asked again.

"What do I have to say, I've been fooling around like this for the past few years."

Sun Zhiheng said nonchalantly.

"This kid is not very famous in the Tao now."

Du Yuesheng took over.

"Now who doesn't know that Manniu is one of the 'safflower sticks' in Shanghai, and he is famous for asking for money and collecting money for others."

Chen Xuan stared at Sun Zhiheng deadly, Sun Zhiheng first looked a little indifferent, and gradually his heart became weak, and he lowered his head and didn't dare to look at Chen Xuan's eyes.

"If Uncle Sun is still here," Chen Xuan paused and said:

"He can beat you to death! Are you short of money? ”

Sun Zhiheng glanced at Chen Xuan quickly, and quickly lowered his head.

Chen Xuan knew that Sun Zhiheng's father was a traditional martial artist, and he regarded martial arts as more important than life, and never bullied others because of his own skills, let alone do such a pickled thing as collecting debts on behalf of others.

"Didn't I see the bad guys getting around outside, and I could also lighten some of the burden on the family?"

Sun Zhiheng muttered.

"Bang!"

Chen Xuan slapped the table, and the wine and food on the table thumped.

"Is the family short for you to eat or short for you to drink? Can I use you to lighten the load? If you don't have anything to do, you have already burned high incense at home, and you are not allowed to do those bad things in the future, otherwise you will be careful of your skin! ”

Sun Zhiheng saw that Chen Xuan was angry, and he didn't dare to talk back, buried his head lower, compared to Du Yuesheng, Sun Zhiheng is more like a sixteen or seventeen-year-old child, it is conceivable that if Du Yuesheng did not have to take care of him openly and secretly, Sun Zhiheng is afraid that he would have been on the street long ago, and his skills are good? How good can you be faster than a gun?

"Thank you, Ah Sheng!"

Chen Xuan picked up his wine glass and touched it with Du Yuesheng.

"A family doesn't speak two words!"

Du Yuesheng also knew what Chen Xuan was talking about.
