"57 Heibei Road!"

During the summer vacation, Wu Ming found Neville's family according to the news he inquired. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

It was a shack area, surrounded by a small river filled with black, foul-smelling water, with a large amount of garbage floating on it, many shacks piled up in a mess, and a few crumbling concrete buildings.

Originally, Wu Ming thought that the area where he lived was the worst in the city, but now it seems that everything has to be compared.

Knocking on the somewhat shaky door, Wu Ming was not surprised to see a group of dirty imps, as well as rags, rags, old furniture, and so on.

"Is Neville here? I was his classmate. ”

Wu Ming tried his best to make his voice appear amiable.

"Brother, someone is looking for you!"

A girl with braids and two missing front teeth immediately shouted to a corner of the room.

"Huh?"

In that corner, a garbage heap of rags and old newspapers shook and Neville emerged from the middle.

His hair was messy, his eyes were red, and he obviously hadn't slept well.

"Ah, it's Steven!"

Seeing Wu Ming, Neville's originally somewhat sleepy face suddenly sobered up: "You came to me?" ”

He had confusion on his face.

Although they are all children of not very wealthy families, Steven lives in an apartment building, and the environment is much better than his own home, not to mention, he is also better at studying than himself, this time he is still the first in the grade, and he is just a failure!

Every time he saw Steven, he only remembered his own incompetence even more.

"You're looking for me?"

Although he usually has a good relationship with Steven, Neville just can't fit into Viddy's small circle, perhaps because he is too inferior, and unconsciously alienates everyone.

"Well, let's go out for a walk! I have something to tell you! ”

Wu Ming directly said what he meant.

"Good!"

Neville got up on the ground: "Fortunately, you came to me today, otherwise I would have entered the factory tomorrow and worked as an apprentice for Master John!" ”

Apprentices in this era were not good jobs, they were almost the personal slaves of the masters, they could be ordered to do anything, but they were not paid even a penny, the only thing they managed was the daily food, and the only hope of the apprentices was that they could learn a little bit of the craft from the master, so that they could come out and do things and receive a formal salary.

It's a pity, how can those masters be so generous? They all hide their unique skills densely, and they can't wait to use their apprenticeships for a lifetime.

The two walked out of the shack area and slowly walked away along the riverbank.

Neville was a little absent-minded, kicking the pebbles on the road from time to time, looking a little preoccupied.

And Wu Ming had a feeling of relief.

After leaving that area, the depression in his heart also decreased a lot.

Neville ...... I have something I want your help with! ”

After turning around, Wu Ming looked at the river, as well as the factories and chimneys not far away, and suddenly said.

"What's the matter? You said! ”

Neville touched his head, he didn't refuse at the beginning, when he was in the class, he was a more hard-working person, and he often took on much more work than himself, so he seemed very honest and easy to bully, of course, Wu Mingke never bullied him.

"I want to do a little business, how about you come and help me?"

Wu Ming stared into Neville's eyes.

"Open...... What are you kidding, how old are you? ”

I don't know why, I'm a year or two older than Steven, but when I see Steven at this time, Neville feels like a child.

"Hey! Neville...... You're going to be an apprentice tomorrow, and if you look at the early morning newsboys and milk-delivering workers all over the city, why do you still have this opinion? ”

"But...... But this is different! ”

Neville muttered.

One is purely selling labor and working for others, and the other is being your own boss, of course it is different.

After confirming that Wu Ming was not joking, Neville finally said, "Then what do you want to do?" What company to open? ”

"Are you kidding?"

At this time, Wu Ming instead stared at Neville with a playful gaze: "Do you think the people from the PCPD will agree to two imps who are less than fourteen years old to become the legal person of a company?" I'm ready to do some business, but it's just a small one......"

"I see!"

Neville let out a long sigh, he almost thought that Steven on the other side really had the idea of making a big business.

I don't know why, thinking of Steven's past deeds, he just thinks that the other party will succeed and become a great person in the future.

"Neville, now that the war is over and the economy is recovering, there are opportunities everywhere! As long as you take this ride, trust me, the money is still very profitable! ”

Wu Ming said in a demagogic tone: "You come and help me, I can give you a reward of 5 jiao shields to 1 gold yuan a day!" ”

"And get paid?"

Neville's eyes widened, and he thought that Wu Ming wanted him to do a day job.

"And, of course, don't you have a bunch of younger siblings? They can come and help me too! ”

Wu Ming blinked.

"Mary, they're still so young, what can they do?"

Neville was confused.

"Although they are all imps, the ordinary pick-and-pick job should still be enough to do it, right? Anyway, with their age, no factory will want them now, so they might as well come out and help me do something! ”

Wu Ming pointed to the huge garbage hills on the outskirts of the city and said, "Your place of work is there!" ”

"Huh?!"

……

Wu Ming returned home in a happy mood, remembering Neville's face at that time, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth when he finally agreed.

"Hi Steven, where have you been today?"

Mrs. Stirling was busy in the kitchen, and suddenly leaned out and said, "Your father has found you a job as an intern, working as a purchasing apprentice in a trading company, and you are paid 5 guilders a day......

The currency system of the Golden Oak Kingdom is also yuan, jiao, and cents, although the money used now is paper money, but if you go to any bank, you can exchange for gold, so the gold content is very high, it is called gold yuan, and one gold dollar is equal to ten horned shields.

It's just that Wu Ming just used this salary to tempt Neville to work for him, and now other companies are doing the same to him, and he really has a sense of retribution.

"I don't want to go!"

Wu Ming refused directly.

"Huh?"

The sound in the kitchen stopped, and Mrs. Stirling came out and looked at Wu Ming: "Little Steven, what's wrong with you?" Do you know how rare this opportunity is? If it weren't for your good studies, Mr. Katewing wouldn't have agreed......"

In her impression, Steven has always been very sensible and obedient, but she didn't expect to refuse the family's arrangement today.

Is it puberty coming?' ’

Mrs. Stirling began to be worried, but unexpectedly, Wu Ming took out a note directly from his trouser pocket, and the number on it shocked Mrs. Stirling.

"10 gold yuan?"

She exclaimed, "How do you have so much money?" ”

"I've started to make money, I have an idea, I'm going to use the summer vacation to practice, I should have an income of more than 5 gold yuan a day, so ......"

Wu Ming originally didn't have so much money, but fortunately, there is still an upright gambling and betting industry in this world.

The gambling industry, in particular, is almost a poor man's spiritual opium, and it is even more legal in the Kingdom of Golden Oaks.

And Wu Ming just has a little pocket money, and after saving it, he can carry out a few small 'speculations'.

Of course, with his current strength, if he wants to perceive the fate line in the dark and get a series of numbers for the lottery, it is not as difficult as robbing the bank directly.

Fortunately, there are many ways to gamble, and there are the simplest scratch prizes, and he has mental perspective......

After a few small tests, Wu Ming immediately made a fortune, and now he has three digits in his pocket, which is the first pot of gold he is ready to start his career.

It's not that you can't get more, but you can say that you are lucky at one time, and a few times in a row, it's really incredible.

Moreover, the more money you get from gambling, the more dangers you bring.

With his strength so far, these are the limits.

"What are you going to do?"

Sure enough, Mrs. Stirling didn't mention anything about the apprenticeship anymore, but stared at Wu Ming with some bright eyes.

"Confidential!"

Although he knew that he would definitely not be able to hide it in the future, Wu Ming still behaved like a little adult, which made Mrs. Stirling cry and laugh: "You little guy, ......"

At the dinner table in the evening, Mrs. Stirling and her husband exchanged a look very tacitly, and with the wisdom of an adult, they were silent, in fact, eighty percent of them were going to start secretly following Steven tomorrow to see what the hell Steven was up to.

Wu Ming knew it, but he still pretended to know nothing and buried his head in eating.

……

"Hey, Neville!"

"Hi Steven!"

Neville rubbed his hands together, "As you asked, we had a busy day and got these!" ”

He took Wu Ming to a 'secret base' outside the garbage mountain in the suburbs, which was actually a large abandoned shack with a pungent smell and several piles of garbage piled aside.

"Well, good, here's your reward for today!"

Wu Ming took out a few 5-jiao shield bills, and a child stuffed one in his hand.

"No, no, that's too much......"

Although Neville said this, he unconsciously exerted force in his hands, and the other brothers and sisters were not as squirming as he was, and directly cheered and stuffed the money into his pocket.

"You guys did a great job, continue tomorrow!"

Wu Ming sent away Neville's group, looked at a few piles of waste paper and metal components, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Do resource recycling?" Are you kidding? With this employment salary and meager rate of return, it is certain to lose money! ”
