"Come, sit in the store." The proprietress hurriedly invited.

Zhang Zhen nodded, put the bicycle aside and opened the protection, he didn't want anyone to move his chariot in a careless way.

The supermarket is not big, with two rows of shelves on the wall in the middle, all of which are mainly daily groceries.

"You must not have remembered my name, my name is Hua Ling, you should be two years older than me, I will call you Brother Zhen." The proprietress brought the kettle to make tea with a grateful smile, she didn't expect that she originally wanted to help this seemingly down-and-out young man out of good intentions, but she didn't think that it was the lucky star that helped her a lot today.

Zhang Zhen sat at the small table a little embarrassed, it was true that he didn't remember the name of the boss lady yesterday, and said with a smile: "Boss, I'm really sorry for what happened yesterday, and I'm afraid I won't be able to do this job, please don't be angry." ”

Hua Ling said with a smile: "What did Brother Zhen say, I explained the bill of goods for the appointment, people are very good and not angry, Brother Zhen helped me but I don't know how to repay it, I'll give you an IOU first." ”

"No...... No, your store is here, I'm afraid that if you run away, the person who owes me money will pay me back, so I don't need it recently, just pay it back slowly when you have the balance. Zhang Zhen listened to a mouthful of Brother Zhen's heart was crispy, this boss lady is so sweet, although she doesn't care much about whether the other party will repay the money, but she has to go down the scene, and directly said that she doesn't need to change it, but this kindness to help others makes people feel uneasy.

"The IOU still has to be paid, and my father said that the clearer the account, the more valuable the favor can be." Hua Ling took a pen and paper and wrote seriously on the table, looked up and said, "Brother Zhen has no opinion on the interest of 2 cents, right?" ”

"Huh?" Zhang Zhen was stunned and hurriedly said: "It's too high, I can't make a few dollars in the bank, I don't care about interest, I don't need to write it." ”

The moment he saw Hua Ling being bullied, he was destined to help, first, the road was uneven, and second, if there was no Hua Ling, he would not have been able to buy this bicycle just right, so he must help, but he is not very familiar with Hua Ling, and it is no good to give it away directly.

"That's one and a half cents, everyone is 2 cents for re-lending, I will borrow five thousand yuan for half a month from Boss Gao, and Brother Zhen will already take a lot of care for me by taking one and a half cents." Hua Ling wrote as she spoke, although she could see that she was tired from debts and some things, but she always had a determined confident smile on her face.

Zhang Zhen drank tea and didn't say much about the interest, Hua Ling insisted on writing it to him, and in the end it was his business, and he easily got almost 100,000 yuan when he came back for the first time, and now tens of thousands of yuan can only be regarded as a piece of cake for him, looking at the dazzling shelves, he is full of expectations for entering the end of the world again.

"Brother Zhen, can you see it?" Hua Ling handed the IOU to Zhang Zhen respectfully with both hands.

Zhang Zhen put down the teacup and took it and looked at it and put it in his pocket, but I have to say that Hua Ling's words are really good-looking, and there is a conciseness and atmosphere in the neat and tidy show, people say that a person's character can be seen from a person's words, and now it feels really interesting, although I don't know why Hua Ling owes debts, but a weak woman dares to use usury and can be calm and calm when threatened.

"You don't have to worry about money, I don't think I'll need it for a while, you do a good job first."

Hua Ling nodded gratefully: "Thank you Brother Zhen for your help, it's not early, or I'll treat Brother Zhen to a meal." ”

Zhang Zhen also felt that his stomach was empty, and said with a smile: "You are alone in this store, you don't have to close the door when you go out to eat, something happened today, if you close the door, it may not give everyone a good impression." ”

Hua Ling hesitated, if it was really closed before dark, the people around her really thought that something had happened to her store, and the recent business would not be good, so she thought for a while and said, "Or ...... Or Brother Zhen will eat in my store, I can make a hot pot, the store is quite rich in ingredients. ”

"Hot pot, hot pot is good, then it will trouble the proprietress then." Zhang Zhen listened to the hot pot drooling and drooled, thinking of Shelley's desire for food and Hu Hai's importance to a piece of biscuit, he suddenly had a trace of great anticipation for food.

Hua Ling was afraid that Zhang Zhen would not be satisfied, but she didn't expect to agree immediately, and she was busy preparing happily, and the two of them ate hot pot with an induction cooker on the small table next to the cash register.

"I'll wash my hands and help." Zhang Zhen stood up and said.

Hua Ling looked for ingredients on the shelves and said, "Well, if you go inside, it's the kitchen, just take a bowl and chopsticks." ”

Zhang Zhen walked around the corner, pushed open the half-covered door and found that there was a kitchen on one side and a bedroom on the other, and looked into the bedroom, there was only a single bed, a dresser, and a wardrobe, which looked very simple, simple and a little bit less like a girl's room.

"It seems that the conditions of this boss lady are very difficult, next time you get money, you have to find a way to help, after all, everything has a chance, if it wasn't for the boss lady willing to use him, this bike would not have been encountered."

"Boss, this shop is not small, why are you alone all the time?" Zhang Zhen put down the dishes and chopsticks, opened the hot pot, and prepared the soup sauce.

Hua Ling took the meat from the freezer and said with a smile: "This store was originally my father's, I just graduated from college a few days ago, my father was sick and was hospitalized, I had to come over to help run it, some time ago my father couldn't open it after surgery, so the former employees were also dismissed." ”

"Oh, it must have been hard lately." Zhang Zhen brought a box of canned beer and came over to open it.

Hua Ling was busy mixing the soup and smiled: "It's okay, my mother can take care of my father, I just need to take care of the store." ”

Zhang Zhen nodded, he already knew about Hua Ling's affairs, it seems that it is not too difficult to get gold back from the end of the world and sell it for money, and there is a lot of windfall by relying on this for the time being, and when he has no money, he desperately wants to work hard to make money, but now he suddenly doesn't know what to arrange with money for a while, maybe helping Hua Ling is one of them.

The two chatted while eating, Hua Ling is a very suitable person to chat with, she knows what to say, she will not ask some inappropriate questions, and she will not make the scene embarrassing, in short, it makes people feel very comfortable.

It gives Zhang Zhen a feeling that is different from the simple hot pot husk between classmates and friends, but a bit like a friend but closer to relatives, but there is no feeling that some things will be restrained when relatives are together.

After eating and drinking for nearly an hour, Zhang Zhen was full of wine and food, looked at the sky and said, "I have to go home, but I have to buy some food and drink from your store." ”

"Well, you can take whatever you want, I'll clean up the table first." Hua Ling always had a quiet smile on her face when she spoke.

Zhang Zhen nodded, took two bags to the shelves to find something, this time to buy all the food brought to the end of the world, the value of beef is very high, but the bagged ones have a production date or something may cause some trouble in the end times, and it is better to be a little secret before you don't know much about time and space.

He sets his sights on food in boxes and glass jars that can be easily peeled off, and there are small processing factories that make foods like pickled fish and sell them in glass jars like canned fruit, which is a good place to take with him.

In addition, I took some better food, some of which I wanted to eat at home, and some of which I gave to Shelley's father and daughter, so that the father and daughter did not have to worry too much, and of course they had to eat better.

I wanted to get a case of beer and a case of mineral water, but I found that the bicycle couldn't hold so many things, so I had to carry a case of beer and strap it to the back seat.

"The money is on the table, call me if you have something, and I will reply to you when it is convenient."

"Brother Zhen, the money is gone...... " When Hua Ling came out with the money, Zhang Zhen had already ridden away on his bicycle, and the five hundred yuan was still surplus even if the hot pot and the broken beer outside the door were counted, Hua Ling couldn't help but look at this strange and kind man a few more times.

Riding a car, Zhang Zhen suddenly felt very happy and happy, being rich is different, you can help others at will, and do whatever you want, although I feel that I feel very low when I directly use a pen to describe myself, but it is indeed such a feeling now, Hua Ling's voice and brother Zhen thought that his heart was about to melt.

"Zhang Zhen, it's time to pay the rent."

Zhang Zhenfang laboriously pushed the bicycle into the corridor and met the landlord, who dared to love this guy has been guarding, carrying the bicycle to the aisle: "I'll give it to you later." ”

"Zhang Zhen, don't make excuses, hurry up and give it, otherwise you will move out, otherwise some people will rent it!" When the landlord saw that Zhang Zhen was about to move a broken bicycle into the house, he hurriedly ran forward and said: "You have a sick brain, my room decoration has cost hundreds of thousands, what do you mean by moving a garbage bicycle inside?!" ”

"Let it go!" Zhang Zhen found that the bicycle was pulled and turned around and glared at the landlord with an annoyed face.

When the landlord saw Zhang Zhen's eyes about to kill, and the mace hanging on the handlebar, he instantly panicked, let go of his hand and stepped back in a panic: "I heard about you, if you don't want to make trouble with me, otherwise I will call the police." ”

Zhang Zhen looked at the snarky and marketable Xie Ding landlord with a bang, grabbed a wad of money from his pocket and threw it over: "Get out of Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu's house has not expired, these are enough until the end of the year, you come here again, don't blame Lao Tzu for being unkind!" ”

The landlord looked at the money that had been spilled on the ground and hurriedly squatted down to pick it up, but his eyes were looking at Zhang Zhen with trepidation, the little white-collar worker who was weak and kind enough to let him raise the rent was gone, and the person in front of him was simply fierce, watching the door being slammed shut, he hurriedly picked up all the money and rolled out of the apartment.

"Ma, if it weren't for the urgency of time, Lao Tzu would have changed the house immediately." Zhang Zhen is really fed up with this landlord, there is still half a month before the expiration, like a hungry ghost who comes to urge him every day.

"Nope! Lao Tzu wants to buy a house! ”

Zhang Zhen turned on the TV and tore off the fire in his belly of beer, and the good mood of the day made a landlord lose it, if he was in the last days, he would directly knock it with a mace.

It also reminded him that this broken apartment is enough to live in, and the second is that it is indeed inconvenient, not to mention that it is inconvenient to enter and exit, and it is not very convenient to act in the downtown area, so it is better to hide it or try to hide it.

The next step, maybe it's time to get money to buy a house, this money is probably not a small amount, then in the last days, you need to stay for a few days, recuperate and prepare.
