More than half an hour passed in the blink of an eye.

It was slightly dark, and a man in his forties and fifties walked in from outside the courtyard.

At first, He Xiao didn't care.

When the man walked to the south room, took out the key from his pocket and opened the door, He Xiao reacted.

"You're Teacher Zhao, right?"

"My surname is Zhao, who are you?" The man looked back at He Xiao a little puzzled.

"Mr. Zhao, I heard that you have a house to sell in the east of Qingyun Hutong?"

"You're here for the house, huh? Let's go inside. ”

The man opened the door and beckoned He Xiao in.

Without a hurry to talk, the man picked up the thermos and poured He Xiao a glass of water, and then the two sat down.

"Teacher Zhao, don't bother."

He Xiao said as he looked inside the room.

This house is very simple, it is the inverted house of the courtyard, and it does not see the sunlight all day long, which is the worst location in the courtyard.

He scanned the room, and there was nothing expensive on his face.

Compared to the shop at the corner of the street, the conditions here are poor enough.

"Five thousand."

"What? Five thousand? You're saying the house costs five thousand? ”

He Xiao was stunned, he didn't expect the middle-aged man to be so happy.

5,000 yuan, half a million yuan, buy a house facing the street, it is not expensive to say that it is expensive, and it is not cheap to say that it is cheap.

According to the speed at which his video hall makes money, he can earn it back in three months, and he can accept this price.

However, he still habitually cut the price, "Five thousand is too expensive, Mr. Zhao, how about four thousand?" ”

"Little comrade, that's my ancestral shop, if I didn't have to leave, I was really reluctant to sell it, five thousand can't be changed, and it must be cash."

Teacher Zhao spoke resolutely.

"Five Thousand ......"

He Xiao thought about it and simply nodded directly.

He could see that Mr. Zhao on the other side was not a businessman, and there was no need for ink for a few hundred yuan.

"Yes, 5,000 is 5,000, you prepare the house book, tomorrow we will go to the housing authority to change the name, and I will give you the money tomorrow, what do you think?"

“……”

This time it was the middle-aged man's turn to be stunned.

There are not many people who can come up with 5,000 yuan at a time, and he thought that the house would take a few months to sell, but he didn't expect someone to come to the door as soon as it was sold.

"Comrade, may I ask you what your name is?"

"Oh, my name is He Xiao."

"Okay, Xiao He, I sold the house, you can come to me tomorrow."

The middle-aged man is also a happy lord, so he agreed directly.

……

On the way back, He Xiao was very happy, 5,000 yuan to buy a shop, it was really worth it.

An ordinary worker, who saves for ten years without eating or drinking.

With a salary of ten years, you can buy a set of shops in the third ring road of the capital, if this is left to future generations, who will believe it.

That is, in this era, the units are divided into houses, and the house prices are not high.

He estimated that with 10,000 yuan, he would be able to buy a small courtyard house.

It seems that before returning to Xiangjiang, he has to look for a few sets, otherwise he will definitely regret it later.

Taking advantage of the fact that the management is not strict now, he bought a few sets of courtyard houses, decorated them well, smashed them, built them, and when he came to the capital in the future, there would be no shortage of places to live.

……

"Mom, why are there so many squid today? Don't want money for squid in the vegetable market? ”

"Yes, Mom, you might as well buy pork to eat, squid is not satisfying."

"Eat you two, where did you get all this nonsense? If you hadn't been touched and couldn't be sold, you wouldn't have been able to eat the squid. ”

As soon as He Xiao entered the hospital, he happened to meet the Jia family and an uncle for dinner.

He turned his head to see a porcelain plate on the stone table, full of coriander squid rolls he had just tasted.

Well, it's not a waste, he doesn't even know what to say.

Seeing that the dish he had just eaten had entered other people's mouths, he always felt a little panicked.

"It's hypocritical, it's hypocritical......"

Shaking his head, He Xiao parked the motorcycle and went directly into the house.

"Hmph."

Qin Huairu turned his head and scolded He Xiao in his heart, blaming this little brute.

Otherwise, these plates of squid would not have gone unsold.

"Silly Zhu, after work tomorrow, you come back quickly."

"What's wrong? Tell me something? ”

"I asked my mother to go to the vegetable market in the afternoon to buy squid, and you can come back early tomorrow to cook."

Qin Huairu touched the four yuan and six cents in his pocket, and was very excited in his heart.

Don't think it's too little, you must know that there are still five plates of squid on the table that have not been sold, and if they do, it will be five yuan.

The cost of four dollars is squid, selling for nine dollars, and making a net profit of five dollars.

Five dollars a day, fifty dollars in ten days, and one hundred and five dollars in a month.

Hey, two hours of work, earning more than the wages of a rolling mill, oops, that's a good deal.

The more Qin Huairu thought about it, the more excited she became, and it didn't take much effort, she could do this job.

On the other side, the stupid pillar was also quite excited.

The main reason is that his daughter-in-law is willing to buy him ingredients, and he is worried about this.

It's not enough to just look at the recipes on TV, but you can't do it.

"Then don't just buy squid, buy a few more big yellow croaker tomorrow, and I'll study other dishes."

"Okay, then buy squid and big yellow croaker."

Qin Huairu didn't think about it, and directly agreed, anyway, they all sell for the same money, maybe the big yellow croaker can be sold for a little more expensive.

Taking a deep breath, she was out of the way, took out ten yuan from her pocket, and handed it directly to Jia Zhang.

"Mom, don't forget, I'll go to the vegetable market in the afternoon to buy it."

……

At twelve o'clock in the morning, He Xiao drove away the people watching TV and was about to go to sleep when he heard the door ring.

When I opened the door, I saw Silly Zhu standing outside the door with a bunch of videotapes.

Seeing that the door was open, the stupid pillar was about to squeeze into the room, and He Xiao hurriedly stopped him.

"You're not going to read the recipe again, are you? If you don't sleep, can you have pity on me, I still have to sleep. ”

Originally, the video hall was until twelve o'clock, and his sleep was not very good.

Well, now the stupid pillar won't even let him sleep peacefully in the second half of the night.

"Forehead ......"

was said by his son, Silly Zhu was a little embarrassed, and it was indeed a little bad to come to his son's room to watch TV in the middle of the night.

But the bag of things in his arms can't see the light.

During the day, he was afraid that he would leak the news.

"He Xiao, on the last night, if I don't finish it, I really can't sleep well, so you just let me finish it."

"Ugh."

He Xiao sighed, he looked at the videotape, thought about it and said, "That's it, after you finish watching it, how about letting me go and record a copy?" ”

"He Xiao, although I picked up this thing, I still can't see the light, I don't feel at ease if you go to get it."

"Hey, then I'll give it to my mother directly and let her rerecord it, don't you worry?"

"That's okay, I'll give it to Xiao'e directly when the time comes, you go to sleep."

Silly Zhu said to his son, then walked to the TV and got busy.

He saw that his son had shown the tape several times, and now he would show it himself.
