Chapter 1 The son wants to raise but does not wait
Bang dang, bang!
"Old man, whose glass was smashed?"
After two crisp sounds of glasses hitting the ground, rhythmic disco music came from next door.
“New life……
New life ……
New life……”
The familiar and long-ago Dutch warrior disco music woke Gu Yu up.
When I opened my eyes, I suddenly found myself lying on a table of eight immortals, and in the dim light, there was a copy of "Summer Vacation Homework for the Second Year of Junior High School" on the table, and a pencil case.
"Xiaoyu, if you're tired, go to bed early......"
He was greeted by an amiable smiling face, the short hair of the old man who spoke was like a layer of white frost, and although his big eyes had sunken deeply, he was still very attentive. The teeth in her mouth were about to be stripped off, her rough hands were crawling with earthworm-like blood vessels, and her weather-beaten face was full of wrinkles, as if recording her years of hard work.
"Grandma!"
Gu Yu involuntarily shouted at the old man.
The grandmother, who was pasting the cardboard box, looked at Gu Yu strangely and smiled: "Xiaoyu, why are you crying?" ”
At this time, Gu Yu looked up at the "1997" star wall calendar on the wall in a daze, and his eyes were full of tears.
My heart is full of excitement and excitement, a 40-year-old middle-aged uncle, who was reborn 25 years ago in the summer vacation of the second day of the Lunar New Year in 1997.
He clearly remembered that he was still attending the junior high school reunion in 2022 last night, and he fought a bottle of Louis XIII with his old classmate "Pheasant", got drunk, and then broke off......
After drinking a meal, you can be reborn, it's really outrageous!
"Xiaoyu, is the homework difficult?" It was Gu Xiande, the grandfather next to grandma Zheng Wenjuan, who was leaning on the radio, listening to Tian Lianyuan's long storytelling hookup "Yang Jiajiang", while helping his grandmother paste the cardboard box.
"It's not difficult, it's not difficult, I'll finish it right away."
Looking at the grandfather and grandmother in front of him, the tidal wave of memories in Gu Yu's mind suddenly surged.
Grandpa is a retired old worker, and grandma is a housewife with no job. His father is their only son, and he is a young man in the forest farm. A few years ago, my father was killed in a road building and blasting accident at a forest farm. Then my mother remarried and went to Shenzhen in the south with a man to work and earn a living......
After the family changed, Gu Yu first lived in the countryside with his grandfather and grandmother for a period of time.
Later, my grandmother fell ill, and my grandfather was a half-disabled old man, so I had to be taken back to the city by my grandfather and grandmother to live with the two elders......
Before his retirement, his work unit was a small collective factory in the street, and the efficiency was very poor, his monthly retirement salary was only more than 300 yuan, and it was still very difficult to support a family of three.
Especially a teenager like Gu Yu, who is in the second year of junior high school, has a good appetite, a large amount of food, and messy expenses such as tuition and miscellaneous fees, and cannot make ends meet.
Therefore, the two elders usually take a little manual work like pasting paper boxes from the street factory to subsidize the family.
Seeing the two old men in front of him still working so late in order to make a living and support themselves, Gu Yu felt very uncomfortable.
He still remembers that after graduating from junior high school and being admitted to a technical school, his grandfather and grandmother passed away one after another.
Later, he learned that his grandfather and grandmother were both diagnosed with malignant diseases a long time ago, but in order to save money and raise themselves, they were reluctant to go to the hospital to see a doctor, and secretly took some common medicines from him, resulting in missing the best time for surgery......
Thinking of this, looking at the two kind old men in front of him, Gu Yu couldn't help but burst into tears.
He began to regret that he had been stubborn at the beginning, that he had not studied well, and that he had failed to live up to their expectations.
I didn't go to a key middle school that year, and I couldn't enter a university to study and fulfill their dreams. I didn't make money early and did my filial piety, and I didn't take good care of them......
The so-called: the son wants to raise but the parent does not wait......
"Xiaoyu, what's wrong with you?" Grandpa and grandma noticed Gu Yu's abnormality, put down the work in their hands, looked at Gu Yu who was sobbing and exclaimed.
"It's okay, a bug flew into my eyes......" Gu Yu wiped away his tears.
"If you're done with your homework, go to bed early, right?"
"Hmm."
The summer homework in the second year of junior high school was not difficult, and Gu Yu completed it quickly.
On a July night, it's cool with the windows open in the small attic.
But lying in the canvas mosquito net, Gu Yu couldn't sleep at all.
SUDDENLY REBORN BACK TO 1997, IF IT'S RIGHT, I REMEMBER THAT JACK IS STILL TRAINING IN THE CAPITAL THIS YEAR, LIU QIANGDONG IS STILL OPENING A SMALL COUNTER IN ZHONGGUANCUN, JIA YOUTING IS STILL DREAMING, AND LUO YONGHAO IS STILL DOING "INVERTED MASTER......
At present, the Internet in China has just emerged, and China will join the WTO in four years......
I am only 16 years old now, and my future self is full of opportunities!
The future is great, but what can I do now?
At the beginning, Gu Yu's mind was a mess, and he didn't have a clue.
Soon, he gradually had some ideas: in his previous life, he was admitted to a technical school to study electrical appliances, and after graduation, he worked as a mechanic in a factory. Later, he speculated in stocks and played futures, and after losing all his money, he learned from the pain and returned to the county to open an electrical appliance store, and started the business of electrical repair and recycling of old electrical appliances, which used to be quite good......
After being reborn, I probably only have the skill of electrical repair.
His first thought was to set up a street stall to repair electrical appliances and earn some money for his craft.
But repairing electrical appliances requires a soldering iron, a soldering gun, solder, a multimeter, banana water, alcohol, rosin, and a large and small screwdriver...... And so on, I don't know how much these tools cost at the moment?
Early the next morning, Gu Yu took the No. 2 bus to the hardware and electrical appliance store in the city center to inquire about the prices of these tools.
After some inquiry, it will cost at least 200 yuan to complete these tools.
This made Gu Yu a little difficult, his grandfather's retirement salary was only 300 yuan a month, and he had to bear the daily expenses of a family of three and daily expenses such as seeing a doctor and taking medicine, which was already stretched, and he didn't want to ask his grandparents for this money.
But it's impossible for you to run to the street empty-handed and set up a stall to help people fix electrical appliances, right?
After the No. 2 bus gets off at Xihe Street Station, it is opposite the bustling Xihe Farmers' Market.
Today, the Xihe Farmers' Market is still a semi-open-air market, with more than half of the vendors selling a variety of fresh vegetables, fruits and aquatic products along the street.
Gu Yu was about to go home through the farmers' market, and just halfway through, he suddenly heard someone on the side shouting to him: "Brother Yu!" ”
Gu Yu looked sideways, "Pheasant!" It was Zhao Dashan who shouted him.
After the release of "The Man of the Troubled Boy in the Rivers and Lakes" in the mainland last year, it became all the rage. Zhao Dashan, who looked a bit like Chen Xiaochun, was given a loud nickname "pheasant" by Gu Yu.
"Brother Yu, buy some aquatic products and go back to honor and honor your grandparents?" Zhao Dashan stood in front of his family's aquatic shop and joked.
Zhao Dashan's parents are also educated youths who cut the queue in the frontier, but they returned to the city early. After returning, the couple opened a fish shop at the Xihe Farmers' Market.
It is said that this aquatic product is very profitable, and Zhao Dashan earned the first pot of gold in the aquatic product shop back then. In his previous life, this guy didn't know what shit luck he encountered, and he actually became one of the members of the stock market death squad, a private equity boss, worth more than 100 million.
Zhao Dashan's aquatic product shop mainly sells freshwater products, including river shrimp, crucian carp, grass carp, herring, loach, yellow eel and so on.
Seeing these freshwater products, Gu Yu suddenly had an inspiration and asked, "Pheasant, among these aquatic products in your family, what variety is the most expensive?" ”
"The most expensive one is the wild yellow eel, which now costs 15 yuan a catty. It is said that this thing aphrodisiacs, spleen, liver and kidneys, how about two catties? ”
"Hehe, let's get down to business, if I can get an authentic wild rhubarb eel, how much money can your family collect?"
Zhao Dashan didn't know how to answer for a while, and looked at his mother Li Zhaodi on the side.
"Xiaoyu, our purchase price is 8 yuan, if you have authentic wild yellow eel, we will give you this price as well!"
