But it was these people who seized the opportunity given by the times and became the first group of people in the whole country to get rich.

Gu Qing was slightly stunned.

She didn't expect Gu Guozhang to ask such a question, "Dad, why are you asking this?" ”

Gu Guozhang coughed a little uncomfortably, and said: "It's nothing, it's just that there are more and more people who are setting up stalls and doing business on the street now, I heard that some people are bold, and they even went to places like Shenhai in Guangzhou Province to dump things and sell them back, and they made a lot of money as soon as they turned their hands, you ...... What do you think? ”

Before Gu Qing could speak, Yang Xiuyun spoke.

"I can't see it!" Yang Xiuyun frowned, "Don't forget what happened to those speculative people in the past few years, it's only been a few years, you look at what kind of people are those self-employed now, second-rate people who don't have jobs, and labor prisoners who came out of prison, how many of them are serious!" ”

What Yang Xiuyun said is the general impression of self-employed people at this time.

Gu Guozhang's lips moved, but he didn't speak.

Gu Qing saw something at this time, probably, what did her father think?

But......

Gu Qing carefully recalled that Gu Guozhang went early in his previous life, but the efficiency of the furniture factory where he worked had been very good in recent years, until there were more and more private furniture stones, which were impacted, and only then did he catch up with the wave of layoffs in the nineties.

Gu Guozhang is a very respected master in the furniture factory because of his good skills, it stands to reason that he should be very comfortable in the furniture factory, why did he suddenly have such an idea?

Although he was puzzled, Gu Qing still said with great certainty: "Mom, you are wrong, since our country has allowed some people to get rich first, they will definitely not go back, don't think that those self-employed people are serious, as long as they don't steal or rob, and make money with their own hands, then there is no shame, now everyone thinks that holding an iron rice bowl is serious, and looking down on these people who do business by themselves, maybe they will have to envy the dead in a few years!" ”

Yang Xiuyun was still a little unconvinced, "How can that?" There are no such people in our village, but there is a second-rate person in the next village, who wears a pair of pants like a broom all day long, just a pair of jeans, isn't this the pants worn by foreign cowherds? It's okay to wear such clothes, and he still buys low and sells high all day long, and he doesn't know how much money he makes, but his father feels ashamed, so he chases him with a burning stick and beats him! ”

Gu Qing couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.

Broom-like pants?

Pants worn by foreign cattle herders?

I guess that's bell bottoms and jeans.

In the late '70s and early '80s, bell bottoms and jeans began to become popular among young people in China, and in the eyes of the older ones, they were undoubtedly deviant, and there were even cases of schools refusing to admit students who wore jeans.

This shows how society reacted to these new things at that time.

Gu Qing shook his head: "Mom, the pants you said are the same as the broom, they are bell bottoms, and ah, jeans are not pants worn by foreign cowherds." ”

"It doesn't matter what kind of pants they are, they're not good anyway." Yang Xiuyun muttered.

Gu Qing was a little helpless.

Yang Xiuyun's attitude is actually the attitude of many people in this era.

It is no wonder that in the past ten years, the people living in this land have experienced too much suffering, and even people dare not accept new things easily, let alone take another step forward.

Thinking about future generations, those who make money in business can be said to be envied, and the contrast is undoubtedly huge.

But......

It's not right to look down on self-employed people now, and the social atmosphere of all the people who look at money in later generations is not necessarily right, it can only be said that they are all characteristics of the times.

Gu Qing knew that Yang Xiuyun's thoughts had long been ingrained, and it was not a matter of time to want to change, so she didn't think that this would persuade Yang Xiuyun.

She turned her head to look at Gu Guozhang: "Dad, I don't think there's any shame in being a self-employed person, they all rely on their own hands to eat, and the workers in the factory will not be more noble than the self-employed." ”

Gu Guozhang was stunned.

He thought, has the girl already guessed something?

But how could this be, he still didn't say anything!

Before Gu Guozhang could speak, Yang Xiuyun smiled and said: "It's none of our family's business to be disgraced and noble, your father is fine in the factory now." ”

Gu Qing blinked and didn't say much.

As for Gu Guozhang, he thought that his idea was still immature, and it was just an idea at present, so it was better to wait until he was sure and then tell his family, so he also smiled and did not speak.

That's how the topic was raised.

At this moment of speaking, Gu Qing had already finished eating a bowl of porridge and two steamed buns, as well as half a plate of tomato scrambled eggs.

Putting away the dishes and chopsticks, she patted her stomach that was a little overwhelmed, and glanced into the yard, "Dad, Mom, where are the little white people?" ”

Hearing Gu Qing ask about Gu Bai, Yang Xiuyun said a little angrily: "This stinky boy, I don't know where Ye is after breakfast early in the morning, it's been more than ten days since the summer vacation, and I haven't seen him do his homework, and when the time comes, the teacher won't sign him up, I see how he cries!" ”

Gu Bai should be in the second year of junior high school at the beginning of the next semester.

Gu Qing couldn't help but snicker.

As he was talking, Gu Bai came back from outside sweating profusely.

He listened to Yang Xiuyun's previous words, and when he entered the house, he first picked up the enamel cup and drank most of the cold boiled water, and then said with some dissatisfaction: "Mom, when did you see that I couldn't report because I didn't finish my homework?" ”

Gu Guozhang and Gu Qing laughed beside them.

Yang Xiuyun glared at Gu Bai: "Even if you don't, you don't know that you took your sister's previous textbook and prepared for the next semester's class?" When you can study like your sister, I won't worry about you! ”

was compared to Gu Qing, and Gu Bai immediately shrank to the side.

Gu Qingda has always been a child of other people's families in everyone's mouth since he started going to school, and Gu Bai, others are also smart, but they have never been able to settle down to study, work hard, and their grades will go up, and then relax for a while, and then they will come down again, just up and down.

"Mom," Gu Qing smiled and glanced at Gu Bai, "Otherwise, anyway, now that it's a holiday, I also have time, so let Xiao Bai Tiantian read and study with me, and keep his grades up." ”
