Chapter 10: Let Go of the Girl
The mysterious woman's voice seemed to be still echoing in his mind, Meng He came to the street in a daze, looking at the famous snack imperial capital roast duck in the imperial capital of China, he had already asked on the way, he was in the imperial capital, Meng He was directly transferred to the city thousands of miles away from his academy by the mysterious woman.
Meng He has long been penniless, and even his mobile phone has fallen off on the road, if she sends Meng He back to his city, he can also find a roommate to borrow a mobile phone to call his grandfather to ask for living expenses, and he can also borrow some money from his roommate again, but the mysterious woman sent him directly to the imperial capital, where he is not familiar with life, and Meng He can only look at the roast duck and swallow spit.
It's not just that the woman in the cave is hungry, after all, according to the time, he hasn't eaten for most of the day, his daily eating time has been fixed, and the biological clock has long been remembered, once he misses a meal or eats later, his stomach will protest, not to mention that he is only seventeen years old this year, he is growing his body, and yesterday his body got the medicine of the I Ching marrow, although he didn't know this, but the body function remembered, and the nutrition he needed is now far beyond ordinary people.
Standing at the door of a storefront for a long time, the people in the store also found Meng and this beggar, don't blame others for misunderstanding, Meng He was wearing a stall, a certain lot of software on the fifteen yuan discount 1.28 also free shipping, plus just now he was lying on the ground for a while, his body has been stained with a lot of dust, but his face is still relatively clean, and he looks like he is sixteen or seventeen years old.
There is a story that says that there are two outsiders who are ready to go out to work, one is ready to go to the magic capital, and the other is ready to go to the imperial capital, but when they are waiting for the bus in the waiting hall, they both change their minds, because the people next to the table say that the people in the magic capital are shrewd, and the outsiders charge for directions, and the people in the imperial capital are simple.
The people who went to the magic capital thought that it was better to be the imperial capital, and they couldn't starve to death if they couldn't make money, but fortunately the car didn't arrive, otherwise they would have really fallen into the fire pit.
People who go to the imperial capital think, it's better to be in the magic capital, you can make money by leading people around, what else can't you earn? Fortunately, I haven't gotten in the car yet, otherwise I would have lost a chance to get rich.
So they met at the refund desk. It turned out that those who were going to the imperial capital got tickets to the magic capital, and those who went to the magic capital got tickets to the imperial capital.
The people who went to the imperial capital found that the imperial capital was really good, he had not done anything for more than a month after he first arrived here, and he was not hungry. Not only can you drink the water in the bank hall, but you can also eat the snacks that you are welcome to taste in the big shopping mall.
People who go to the magic capital find that the magic capital is really a city where you can make a fortune, you can make money by doing anything, you can make money by leading the way, you can make money by opening toilets, and you can make money by making a basin of cold water to wash your face. As long as you think of a way, you can make money with a little effort.
Relying on the feelings and knowledge of the villagers for the soil, the next day, he loaded ten pieces of soil containing sand and leaves at the construction site, and sold them to the Modu people who did not see the soil but loved flowers.
He made six trips to and from the outskirts of the city that day, netting fifty yuan. A year later, with "Flower Pot Soil", he actually had a small façade in the Great Demon Capital.
In the perennial walking of the streets and alleys, he made a new discovery: some shops have bright floors but dark signs, and when he inquired, he learned that the cleaning company was only responsible for washing the building and not responsible for washing the signboards.
He immediately seized the opportunity, bought a herringbone ladder, a bucket and a rag, and set up a small cleaning company to scrub the signs.
Today, his company has more than 150 workers and has grown from Shanghai to Hangzhou and Nanjing.
Not long ago, he took a train to the imperial capital to inspect the cleaning market, and at the imperial capital station, a man who picked up rags put his head into the soft sleeper car and asked him for an empty bottle, and when he handed the bottle, both of them were stunned, because five years ago, they had changed their tickets once.
This is an inspirational story, but also a philosophy of life, but also shows that the people of the imperial capital are simple, the owner of the store saw Meng He at the gate for a long time and refused to leave, and looked at the golden roast duck in the glass oven and swallowed his saliva and immediately took out a roast duck from the kitchen that ate a few bites, their roast duck here is always freshly baked, some customers have not eaten a few bites and have not packed away the store even if it will be used as employee benefits or to some scavengers outside, beggars, etc. will never be sold to other guests.
"Child, you're hungry, let's eat this for you. A boss dressed in ordinary looks walked out of the store, smiled at him kindly, and gave Meng He a roast duck and packed it in a bag, after all, Meng He was so dirty What should I do if I eat it with my hands?
In fact, according to the minds of ordinary people, Meng He is not like a beggar at all, and not many people believe it when he really begs, in the final analysis, this boss is too kind, if Meng He meets other shopkeepers, the result may be completely different.
Gastric juice burned Meng Ji's stomach and made him even more hungry, although he did not directly take the roast duck handed over by the boss, the cheap one is not subject to the food that comes from the mouth, although the boss has no other meaning, but since he was a child, he grew up in a poor environment, he often heard his grandfather's teachings in vain, although he often got help from the neighbors when he was a child, but every time his grandfather asked him to do things first, and then get paid, every time he got help, he would do his best to help the other party do things and seek comfort in his heart, just like a certain text he once studied。
"Thank you, uncle, but I can't ask for your roast duck for nothing, otherwise I'll help you wipe the table, sweep the floor, wash the dishes, and change the roast duck first?" Meng He forcibly endured the feeling of hunger and looked away from the roast duck, he couldn't guarantee that he would be able to go back as soon as possible, and there would be some accidents or something, after all, the mysterious woman didn't know where to watch him, and it was still unknown whether Meng He could go home or continue to go to school before he fed her, and it was better to pay off the debt immediately.
In addition, he was still a little afraid of the mysterious woman, even if she was as beautiful as a fairy, but she was as cunning as a fox, and he was very suspicious that the man knew that he was penniless so that he could deliberately send himself far away so that he could find food for her with peace of mind, but she still underestimated herself, and I would rather go back than compromise.
The boss was stunned when he heard this, he had also rescued many waste pickers, and even went to the orphanage to volunteer every month, but he really hadn't seen someone with such a personality as Meng Ji, which couldn't help but make him a little curious.
Meng Ji's gaze still slid over the roast duck from time to time, but his eyes were very firm, he seemed to be a person with strong self-control, and he was not as thin as the yellow face of an ordinary scavenger, he looked more like an ordinary person who was suddenly killed.
At this time, just after the meal, there are no customers in the store, because the remote area is here to eat are all old customers who know the boss's skills, there are a lot of leftovers on the table, the store is a primary school apprentice except for himself and his wife, and he has not had time to clean up these garbage.
"Okay, you help clean up the hot roast duck I'll give you. "The salary of an hourly worker is more expensive than that of roast duck, and he is not willing to take advantage of a victim, if he is really asked to work for the store, this roast duck that is left over from other people's food will not be able to do it at all.
"Thank you, boss, but I have one more request, do you have any rice at home?" Meng He said with a little blush, after all, he still likes to eat normal food, how can he eat roast duck if he is so hungry.
Looking at Meng Ji's appearance, the boss smiled knowingly, "Don't worry, there are many kitchens, but your body is too dirty, let's go to the bathroom and take a shower first!"
Meng Ji's face turned even redder, and he could only ask the location of the cleaning hand and rushed in, five minutes later, Meng Ji, who had cleaned himself and was wearing the clothes provided by the store, walked out, fortunately, it was the height of summer, a short shirt and shorts were enough, and he didn't pick clothes to wear.
After taking a shower, he was relaxed, and there was nothing unusual except that his stomach was hungrier.
"Yo, that's a handsome young man. The proprietress saw the new Meng Ji's eyes lit up and praised her, she also learned about Meng Ji's situation from the boss and appreciated it. "Why don't you eat something first, how uncomfortable is it to be hungry?"
The proprietress is also a middle-aged woman, time has left traces of vicissitudes on her face, she looks older at the age of thirty or forty, but she is very husband and wife standing with the boss.
"No, Auntie, I'm very fast, and it won't take long. Since Meng Ji is a child of a poor family, he is naturally proficient in washing dishes, sweeping the floor, cooking, folding quilts, doing farm work, washing clothes, etc., after all, the children of the poor are in charge of the house early, not to mention that he has been dependent on his grandfather since he was a child, and only by learning these can he reduce the burden on the family.
However, I heard from the neighbors that my grandfather is not an ordinary person, he has the ability to appreciate treasures and see treasures, and he is often hired to palm his eyes but never collects money, just eats a meal.
In addition, he never picks up leaks, and when he sees real treasures, he will say it clearly, but he has a lot of contacts, and the private middle school that Meng He is studying now is his grandfather looking for someone to help, but because of this character, he has a poor family situation now.
But he never blamed his grandfather, no matter how he didn't let himself go hungry and froze, and gave himself such a learning environment, taught him all kinds of life principles, and he admired this man from the bottom of his heart.
After washing the dishes in the kitchen, Meng He came out to clean up the garbage in the store, sweep the floor, wipe the table or something, and put some leftovers in another bucket to do all this, and he was satisfied and ready to go back to the kitchen to eat, at this time there was a noisy sound outside, and he faintly heard a woman's shout, Meng He immediately returned and ran outside.
Grandpa taught him that a man should stand up to the sky, and it should be incumbent on him to meet someone who needs help, only in this way is a good man, but he needs to do things within his ability, and he can't make himself bankrupt in order to help others.
Looking at the location where the voice came from, Meng He saw several gangster men surrounding a woman, and took a closer look at Tong Xiaoke, who had just been knocked down by him, and saw that the situation was stopped by the gangsters, thinking of his grandfather's teachings and his sudden increase in strength, Meng He immediately yelled.
"Let go of that girl. ”
