Chapter 90: The Commissary
Gu Cancan wants to take down this storefront, not purely to make money, she saw that after her grandparents came here from their hometown, there was no entertainment, and there was no object to chat with, grandpa fiddled with those vegetables and a few fruit trees in the yard every day, but how long can this work last? Grandma does housework every day, and then she watches TV to kill the time, and her parents and their siblings usually go to school and don't communicate much with the elderly after school.
Thinking of this, Gu Cancan couldn't wait to slap himself, he was almost luckier than everyone in the world, he was reborn and returned once (although the gender has changed weirdly), but he didn't cherish it enough, he was usually busy with his own affairs, and rarely accompanied his grandparents. Do you have to wait until the situation of the son who wants to raise but does not wait for the family to regret it?
Thinking of this, she couldn't sit still and went to find her grandparents. Gu Cancan followed the sound to the kitchen, and saw that the little grandmother was busy cooking and stir-frying, and saw that the grandmother was cutting vegetables quickly, and the kitchen knife was flying up and down in her hand.
Gu Cancan was afraid of scaring his grandmother, so he didn't make a sound, looked at it with affection, quietly left the kitchen, and listened to the sound of chopping vegetables without kitchen knives, so he shouted softly, "Grandma." ”
Grandma's answer came from the kitchen, "Hey, Nill is back?" ”
"Well, grandma, I'm back, where's the stir-fry?" Gu Cancan said loudly as he walked over.
Grandma smiled kindly and said, "Grandma made your favorite scrambled eggs with persimmons and sour and hot shredded potatoes." "Persimmons are tomatoes, that's what the older generation calls them.
Gu Cancan stretched out his head to look over, the scrambled eggs with tomatoes had been prepared, and the shredded potatoes had just been cut and had not been fried yet.
She smiled and said to her grandmother, "Grandma, I'll fry it." ”
"Where do you know how to stir-fry, grandma will be ready in a while." How can grandma be willing to let her granddaughter stir-fry.
Gu Cancan leaned on the kitchen door frame, watched his grandmother stir-fry, and suddenly asked, "Grandma, are you annoyed at home?" ”
"Huh?" Grandma looked up at Gu Cancan in surprise and said, "Nier, what's wrong with you?" ”
Gu Cancan pursed his lips and smiled, and said, "I also suddenly remembered, grandma, you and grandpa stay at home every day, and you have nothing to do, how boring it is for no one to pull around." ”
"Hey, what's so interesting about this," feeling the care of her granddaughter, the grandmother smiled happily: "In the past, there was not enough food and clothing, and there was endless work, but at home at this time, there is air conditioning in summer and heating in winter, and eating and sleeping well every day is a fairy-like day, don't say it's boring." As he spoke, he poured the potatoes into the pot that had just been refined, and suddenly there was a "stinging lala" sound, bubbling white gas, and grandma put salt on her hands and feet to stir-fry, and then covered the pot and simmered for a while.
Gu Cancan looked at Grandma's movements, pondered and said, "Grandma, I mean you and Grandpa will always be bored when they stay at home every day, what do you say if you open a commissary?" ”
Grandma looked at her granddaughter in surprise and said, "Open a commissary? ”
"yes, open a commissary." Gu Cancan knew that her grandmother was not used to talking about supermarkets, so she simply followed her habit and called it a commissary, "It's the brilliant lamp at the east crossroads, his store is not going to do it, I think let's rent it and open a commissary, you and my grandfather open a store, there is something to do, grandma, what do you think?" ”
"That's not good, your grandfather can't read a single word, let him work, how can he do business." Grandpa's status in grandma's heart is worrying.
Gu Cancan grinned and said, "Then grandma, you are in charge of the house and let grandpa work." Grandma, haven't you taught yourself a lot of words, and if you can write and count, you will definitely be able to do it. ”
Grandma Gu was born in the old society, how could she have the opportunity to go to school and read and write, but Grandma Gu is really that kind of very smart person, after the liberation, she went to night school for a few days and self-study, Grandma Gu can almost recognize all the common words. She almost never forgets it, listening to the commentary when she was young, and listening to it once can give others a complete retelling; The children's songs and stories that her parents told her when she was a child still remembers them clearly when she is old, and she can still tell them to Gu Cancan and Gu Yujiong.
Hearing Gu Cancan say this, grandma was obviously a little tempted, she ate well and dressed well at her son's house, but it was indeed a little boring. She asked Gu Cancan, "Nier, is your dad going to rent it out?" ”
Gu Cancan hadn't told Gu Wei about it yet, but when he heard his grandmother ask, he said, "Grandma, this is my idea, and I haven't told my dad yet." But I think Dad should support it. I'm going to call my dad. ”
Gu Wei was pitted six million or slowly spread the word, he borrowed more than one million from relatives and friends, and now that this matter has spread, Gu Wei is also mentally prepared for the creditors to come to ask for accounts, but he didn't expect the creditors to come yet, and one of his classmates, Dong Xingang, came to the door first.
Dong Xingang is Gu Wei's junior high school and high school classmates, and the relationship between the two is quite good. The family conditions of no one would be good, but the Dong family was particularly poor at that time, and Gu Wei was older than him and took good care of Dong Xingang. After graduating from high school, Dong Xin just enlisted in the army as a soldier, and after returning from the army, he opened a cement prefabricated panel factory and made a fortune.
When Gu Wei borrowed money to invest in building a factory, Dong Xingang raised money to invest in building a small cement factory because the cement prefabricated panel factory had reached the profit ceiling, he was more short of money than Gu Wei, and planned to borrow money from Gu Wei.
Now Gu Wei's investment has failed and lost 6 million, but Dong Xingang's cement factory is doing prosperous business and making money.
Dong Xingang heard about Gu Wei some time ago, and took the initiative to come to Gu Wei and offered to lend Gu Wei 1 million, and the interest would be calculated according to the bank's interest. This is charcoal in the snow, Gu Wei was extremely moved.
Besides, relatives and friends knew that Gu Wei had been deceived by millions, in addition to Li Zhiqiang, there were still a few people who came to the door, some people came to understand the situation, and learned that Gu Wei was really defrauded of such a large sum of money, and relieved him not to despair, their money was not in a hurry to pay it back slowly, but some were worried that Gu Wei would collapse, and strongly demanded to repay the money as soon as possible.
Gu Wei understands the feelings of the friend who asks for the money back, after all, no one's money is blown by the wind, he has the one million that Dong Xin just lent in his hand, and he happily repaid the part that asked for the repayment first.
It is gratifying that the relatives of the Gu family came to comfort and persuade after learning that Gu Wei had been deceived, and none of them explicitly asked for the money to be repaid. Gu Wei begged his relatives to keep it secret from Grandpa Gu, and he must not let the old man know, so until now, Grandpa Gu and Grandma Gu still don't know about the changes in the family.
Gu Cancan called Gu Wei and told Gu Wei that Li Wei was going to transfer the store, and told Gu Wei what she thought.
