The story also starts when Li Changsheng graduated from university.

Li Changsheng is a rural person, and I heard that there is an elder brother above who just died, so his parents named him Changsheng, which has a lot of implications.

When I first heard the name Li Changsheng, it gave people the feeling of a middle-aged person, either it was the name of the last century, or it was the appearance of a fairy wind dao bone cultivator. It's hard to think of a college student in his early twenties, and he was teased many times when he applied for a job.

However, Li Changsheng's appearance was mediocre, and his grades were even more ordinary, and he was admitted to university because of the special recruitment of sports students, thinking that he could achieve something in sports, but the major he chose was still the BB machine repair and maintenance that was in the limelight at that time.

I finally graduated from college, but it was difficult to move forward because I didn't have a corresponding major. Who would have thought that when he was studying a major, BB machine was still a rare mobile communication tool, just a few years of rapid technology, all kinds of mobile communication equipment sprung up in an endless stream. All kinds of smartphones, computers, cars, and even watches can make calls. The rapid development of science and technology also caught Li Changsheng off guard.

All of the same majors have changed careers, and only Li Changsheng is a rural child who has no good development path. This month, I will do chores for the restaurant, and the mall security guard will be comfortable next month, Li Changsheng has a female classmate, Xiao Meng, who has been an alumnus from elementary school to university, maybe this is fate. Because Xiao Meng often helped him, he never starved to death.

It stands to reason that Xiao Meng's attitude towards Li Changsheng can be seen by everyone around him, only Li Changsheng, a fool, treats the relationship between men and women as a buddy, like a stone that can't be hot.

"Changsheng, your job is also unstable, why don't you start a business?" Xiao Meng and Li Changsheng chatted at the roadside barbecue stall at night.

"Start a business? Why do you want to forget it, you don't know me, I pay more than 3,000 wages a month, half of it is handed over by my family, and the rest is not enough for me to live, how can I be in the mood to start a business." "It's not that Li Changsheng hasn't thought about creating a career, but this society is like this, if you decide to do it, he will change the sky, just like his major, thinking about it is a wry smile.

"I know your difficulties, because of professional problems, you hide from your family to work, I know all this, but this is not a long-term solution"

Li Changsheng has been hiding from his family's work since graduation, telling his family that he has a decent job, and when he is more than 3,000 a month, his parents think that their children are promising. Indeed, in the internship of college students, an intern can only get a salary of 600 to 800, but Li Changsheng earns 3,000, and he works several jobs by himself, from early morning to midnight, and he is very able to endure hardships.

However, within a year of graduation, other people's salaries have risen scariably, and Li Changsheng still holds a fixed 3,000, which is inevitably a little lost. Thinking of this, Li Changsheng didn't speak.

"That's it, I've recently been optimistic about a small business, there is a stall in the night market on the pedestrian street to transfer it to see what can be done" Xiao Meng wholeheartedly guided Li Changsheng to start a business.

"Transfer, that shouldn't be a low cost, right?" I had an idea in mind, but I had to be realistic.

"Don't worry about this, the cost is mine, and we will divide the money equally" Xiao Meng laughed.

Since it is all said about this, there is no need to push back. That night, the two of them went to see the stalls and study small trades. Li Changsheng can count the number of times he has been to the night market on one hand, he has been poor since he was a child, and he saves money when he goes to school, he will not spend money if he is not needed, and he has no time to hang out.

Ten o'clock in the middle of the night is also the time when there are the most people, and the two of them are not in a hurry to look at the stalls one by one, thinking about what to do to make money. I turned around and found that I didn't know what to do. In the end, Xiao Meng proposed to start with the toys with the smallest cost.

The next day, Xiao Meng bought the stall, and the two of them wholesaled toys for hundreds of yuan, and the small business began.

"Mom, I want to play this" The first business was done, the toys are all small costs, and a profit is considerable when sold for three or two yuan to a dozen yuan.

From 6 o'clock in the evening to 1 o'clock in the morning, only a few toys were sold in the stall, and the net profit reached 600, not to mention how happy Li Changsheng was. Xiao Meng gave him 300, but he only took 200, "It's already beyond my budget, let's talk about it when the stall fee is earned" Xiao Meng didn't shirk, anyway, the food and drink when he came out of the stall were Xiao Meng's.

The next day, the two of them worked hard, and in less than half a month, Li Changsheng got 3,000, becoming more and more motivated, and he was even more obedient to Xiao Meng, which should be what Xiao Meng was willing to see.

In the night market that day, Li Changsheng was here by himself, and Xiao Meng went home.

The squid seller next to him didn't come, but an old man who told fortunes came to the night market, and it was the first time I saw it in the night market. When he was not busy, Li Changsheng smoked a cigarette and squatted on the side of the stall to greet the old man, but the old man also tilted his head to look at it and did not speak. It's boring to talk about yourself, and after a while, the old fortune teller next to me spoke, and I don't know if it's no business or idle boredom. "The young man is 20 this year. "Yes, uncle, are you Guigeng?" the old man smiled and did not answer.

"Young man, if you believe the old man, the old man will show you, how about free?" Sure enough, there is no business to spare.

"Uncle, everyone's divination is in the morning, are you allowed in the middle of the night?"

"The old man has been in the industry for more than 40 years, and he has never looked away, I don't believe you can ask a question about you casually to see if the old man can answer it" It seems that he has met the old fritters, or the old fritters of 40 years.

Before Li Changsheng could answer, he came to business. This busy left the fortune teller behind, although sometimes good and sometimes bad, he did earn more than his part-time job. In less than a month, he sent 4,000 yuan to his family, and the old couple was also happy to ask questions, and Li Changsheng explained that he had now left his previous unit to start a business with his friends, and he earned several times as much as before. The old couple laughed happily, saying that the ancestral tomb of the old Li family had produced such a promising son, and finally reluctantly hung up the phone and told Changsheng to be outside the body and not to patronize to make money. Li Changsheng promised to take care of himself one by one.

After hanging up the phone, I counted my income with satisfaction, and my eyes seemed to have turned into the shape of money.

In the morning, I went to buy goods with Xiao Meng and chatted about the old man who told the fortune next door, Xiao Meng smiled vigorously.

"Don't be fooled, there are so many liars now, I will wrap you in in a few words, and Aunt Zhang upstairs in my house has been deceived by tens of thousands" said with a scared expression.

"Can't you, right? I think the old man is okay, and he said that he wanted to show me for free, but I don't know what he will see," Li Changsheng pondered.

It was already evening when the two of them came back from picking and choosing, and they hurried to the night market to start their day's livelihood.

The fortune teller had already set up his stall and sat on the small bench, and saw Li Changsheng nodding with a smile. I didn't talk to Li Changsheng all night, just sat there and took a nap.

Just when Li Changsheng was closing the stall, the old man woke up, stretched his waist and prepared to leave, rolled up the rag with the clever calculation written on it, and said a word without replying

"Young man, there may be a big incident around you recently, believe that my old man will come to Xinhua Lane tomorrow morning to find me."

Li Changsheng and Xiao Meng looked dazed.
