Chapter 2 Living in the Moment
"Dada-da-da!" The turntable spun rapidly, and after a few seconds, it slowly stopped, Song Xing clenched his fists, and prayed vigorously for god-level collection, he was a person who had made a loan, and he knew what god-level collection meant, although he didn't know what kind of collection it was, but after all, he could recover it without a penny, no matter how much money he had, he was not afraid of being repaid.
"Tick!" After all, the turntable still didn't stop at the purple grid, but fortunately, it wasn't thank you for your participation and experience points, and the customer was selected for all attributes.
"What is customer attribution screening?" Song Xing thought for a moment and asked.
"But check the customer's moral character, the industry he is engaged in, the loan amount, the purpose of the loan, the ability to repay and the fortune!"
I rub it, this is awesome, Song Xing couldn't help but be speechless, although there were various lending institutions in his previous life, they never had the function of detecting the actual repayment ability of customers, otherwise, so many small loan companies would not have died.
Although this is a lottery, but after the system is upgraded, there will be a cliff of these functions, thinking about it, Song Xing couldn't help but be happy.
In the future, even if he struggles all his life, he is estimated to be just a house slave, thinking that in the near future, he will be the richest man in the village, then in the county, and then ...... I'm excited to fly!
"Brother, the meal is ready, what's wrong with you?" Coco cooked the meal, and saw Song Xing sweating nervously for a while, and looking happy for a while, she couldn't help but worry, could it be that she really burned her head with a fever in the past few days?
"Haha, it's okay, eat, eat!" Song Xing resisted the excitement in his heart, carefully sat on the small yellow stool, rolled up his sleeves and prepared to eat, but when he saw the two bowls of rice in front of him, he couldn't help but be stunned.
In front of him was porridge and wild vegetables, and the bowl of cocoa, except for a few grains of rice, was full of elm money.
Elm money, is the fruit that grows on the elm tree in April and May in spring, grows and is slightly smaller than the copper coin stringed together, edible, occasionally picked to eat, it does have some taste, but it is eaten as a meal for a long time, and there is no nutrition.
"Come, eat this bowl! You are growing your body, how can you eat elm money! Song Xing pushed the bowl in front of him to Coco, and Coco waved his hand again and again, stubbornly pushing the bowl over again.
"I'm a girl, I can eat enough with elm money, my brother has to eat more, and when I am full, I can study and test my fame!" When Coco talked about fame, his little face was full of longing.
Song Xing was a little sad and a little helpless, how could fame be so easy, besides, this fame in troubled times is useless at all, money is the king, but he can't explain it to his sister, and it is impossible to say that he came through time.
"Listen to my brother's words, you eat this bowl, and I will eat elm money, otherwise my brother won't study and take the test for fame!" Song Xing handed the dishes and chopsticks to Coco's hand and said without refusal.
As soon as he heard that Song Xing didn't study to test his fame, Coco panicked directly, seeing that tears were about to fall, Song Xing hurriedly said: "Don't worry, my brother won't eat Yuqian for a meal, and you won't either, let's eat this meal, and there will be vegetables and meat in the future!" ”
With the Qian Duoduo system, if he can't even solve the problem of food and clothing, it is estimated that his former host, Old Man Shen, will not be able to hold the coffin board.
"Well, as long as my brother is admitted to fame, our family's life will definitely be better!" In ancient times, children were precocious, and they were very sensible at the age of eight or nine, but children from poor families like Keke began to do odd jobs to earn money to support their families.
"Hehe, my brother will definitely make our family better!" Song Xing picked up the Yuqian rice and ate it with relish, not to mention, the Yuqian thing was rare in the countryside in later generations, and it was really a rare thing to eat a few bites occasionally.
"Huh?" Song Xing took a few bites and suddenly stopped, "Why don't you even have salt?" ”
The family is poor, and it is reasonable to have no oil, but it is difficult to understand without salt.
"The current salt is too expensive, it costs 300 Wen, we can't afford it, brother, it's all because Coco is useless, and we can't make money!" Speaking of this, Coco's eyes turned red again, full of self-blame and guilt.
"Ah, it's okay, it's okay, it's fragrant without salt!" Song Xing hurriedly comforted, but his heart was bitter, not eating salt for a long time would lead to various diseases, especially cocoa in the developing stage, after eating, it was only right to find money to buy some salt first.
This is a sad era, the Ming Dynasty itself gold and silver mines, copper ore is insufficient, coupled with a large amount of silver outflow, the implementation of a whip law, all taxes must be converted into silver to pay, resulting in a rise in silver, copper money exchange ratio has increased significantly, to the present, one or two silver is enough to exchange for 2000 Wen money, naturally leading to a shortage of copper money, and then the price of goods has risen, especially the indispensable coarse salt has risen to 300 Wen, which is comparable to the sky-high price!
Song Keke ate one bite at a time, for fear of sprinkling a grain of rice, and after eating, she didn't forget to add a clean bowl, for her, maybe this is the best meal, and then, she began to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and took them to wash, which is her daily routine.
Song Xing grabbed the cocoa with some distress and was frozen and swollen in winter, and the swelling had not subsided in the spring and said, "Let me come, your hands can't work!" ”
"No, my brother has to study to test his fame, so your hands can't touch these! After eating, you go to rest, I'll go out and do odd jobs to make money! I haven't been there for two days, I don't know if Wang Po will take me there! "Coco is a little worried, she has been busy taking care of her brother in the past two days, delaying her work, who knows if people will deduct her wages, you must know that she can earn ten copper plates a month, how much can she buy some rice, if this errand is lost, she and her brother's life will be lost.
Immediately, she hurriedly cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, in her opinion, her brother is a showman, sooner or later he will get ahead, and he can't do these rough jobs, this is all evil and harmful.
At the age of eight or nine years old, he should be carefree, chasing innocence, and when he was coquettish in the arms of his parents, Coco still had to make money to support the family and take care of housework, and Song Xing, who was over twenty years old, actually studied and tested his fame at home with peace of mind.
"Brother, I want to talk to you about something!" Coco finished washing the dishes and chopsticks very quickly, hesitated for a moment, and said in a slurred manner.
"Wang Po said before, let me go to the grain chief's house as a child daughter-in-law, I will give a few hundred dollars, and I can also save food, I think, with these hundreds of dollars, you can buy some salt, you can also buy some rice, in the future, I will continue to work in the grain chief's house, Wang Po promised me, I can continue to work in the grain chief's house, there are three dollars a month, and I can also bring back the leftover meals at their house, so that although the life is hard, at least you can concentrate on studying!"
After listening to this, Song Xing's nose was sour, even though the future generations were not good, but he also had food and clothing, he had never felt such warmth, and he almost shed tears.
Coco sacrificed his future for him, he could see that Coco hesitated, this matter has been said by the princess for a long time, Coco has not agreed, she is reluctant to brother, she feels that she can feed, but today he said that there is no salt in the meal, even if he prevaricated, but Coco still saw it in his eyes, in order to make himself eat better, Coco resolutely went to be a child daughter-in-law to others!!
Song Xing used to be a complete nerd, just caring about gaining fame, but he wasn't, he didn't allow Coco to do this, and he didn't need to feed! As a man who will become the richest man in the near future, how can he let his sister be wronged.
Being a child daughter-in-law to others, although Coco sounds good, is it that easy? Not to mention giving three cents a month, and taking leftovers back like this, such nonsense, it is estimated that the five hundred cents is a cover, and it is common to be beaten and scolded.
Although Coco is diligent and honest, and her heart is also kind, she can take care of housework at a young age, but after all, she is not deeply involved in the world and is easy to trust others!
"Brother is not the elder brother of the past, in the future, you don't have to worry about things at home, you just care about playing!" Song Xing looked at his skinny sister and said seriously.
"But my brother 、、、、" Indeed, Coco could see that her brother's eyes were very different from before, but that didn't mean she didn't have to work hard.
"Hehe, don't talk about it, let's go, go to my uncle's house with my brother!" Song Xing took Coco's hand and walked towards the uncle's house, and the grievances between his family and the uncle's family should also be said.
"Brother, let's not go!" Coco was a little timid in her eyes, her leg was bitten by her cousin's dog when she went to pick elm money.
Song Xing didn't speak, just pulled Coco forward, it should be them, he will get it back sooner or later!
Out of the door, walked forward through a barren grass path, is the stone road, most of the families in the village live here, and their so-called home, in fact, when the grandfather was alive, the family put sundries in a warehouse, and then a simple transformation, after the death of the parents, was driven here by the uncle's family.
After walking along the stone road, they arrived at the house of Uncle Song Ping, which was also their original home.
This is a fairly good courtyard, with a hall, east and west wings, a kitchen and a daughter's room, and they originally lived in the west wing.
"Oops, the nerd is still alive, what? Borrowing salt again? We will throw salt into the stinking ditch, and we will not lend it to you poor ghosts! Before the Song Xing brothers and sisters entered the door, they met their cousin Song Chao who went out.
Song Dynasty, with an ugly face, perverse nature, and a character of bullying the soft and afraid of the hard, when he saw the Song Xing brothers and sisters, he naturally didn't have a good face, rolled up his sleeves, and beat people with a posture, so frightened that Coco hurriedly hid behind Song Xing.
"Tsk, our big showman, he didn't die? Why, I still want to come and ask for the family property, believe it or not, this time I will let you lie in that broken house forever, by the way, I forgot to tell you, this elm tree in front of the door does not allow your brothers and sisters to steal elm money, otherwise, isn't it as simple as letting the dog bite, how can Cocoa, the scar is healed? Then, Song Xian, who heard the voice, also walked out.
This sharp-beaked monkey has cheeks, slanted eyes and crooked mouth, and at first glance he is a tricky and mean person, and Coco was bitten by his dog before.
"Thanks to the blessings of the two cousins, I am very good, in addition, I advise the two of you, it is better to spit it out after eating someone else's, otherwise you will have to pay the price! It's going to be miserable! Song Xing looked at Song Chao coldly, and after saying it word by word, he left with Coco, the two brothers didn't dare to move.
