Chapter Forty-Nine: Everyone Wants to Be the Lord
Walking on the dirt road home, a pair of feet were frozen like ice cubes, and Xu Fugui's heart was full of pain.
Half of the harvest of Lao Tzu's hard-earned land has to be handed over!
Ryuji ......
You're really damned!
Xu Fugui gritted his teeth, and could only keep recalling in his heart the desperate appearance of Ryuuji when he was shot.
When I got home, Xu's mother was preparing for the evening's meal, and Changgen was burning the fire, and Lai Shun helped to help.
"Dad, I'll tell you something."
After talking about Long Er's rent collection, Father Xu let out a long sigh after listening to it, "Feng Shui takes turns, and I have collected the rent for a lifetime, and when I am old, I actually have to pay rent to others." ”
He glanced at the sweet potatoes and potatoes piled up in the corner of the wall with some distress, "The grain will not be sold, ask your mother to take some copper coins, and send them to Long Er and Master Long tomorrow." ”
The family's money is all on Xu's mother, and every time Xu Fugui comes back from the county, he gives the silver dollars and copper coins to Xu's mother.
It's not that Mother Xu has a strong desire to control, it's just that he doesn't care about money, he wants to buy anything he sees, and he won't bargain.
Of course, he has the capital to do business, and when he needs to use the money, Xu's mother will not ask much.
The matter of collecting rent was thus determined.
Father Xu looked at the fire in the stove, covered his mouth and coughed twice, and suddenly said, "Fugui, come here." ”
Xu Fugui walked over and sat beside him, patted him on the back, and said with a big grin: "Dad, listen to your son." ”
"You brute." Father Xu scolded with a smile, then put away his smile and asked seriously, "Do you have the courage to make your business bigger?" ”
Xu Fugui blinked, "Dad, what do you mean?" ”
Father Xu coughed again and spit out a mouthful of thick phlegm, "If you want to earn back the Xu family's family business, you must not rely on farming alone, and the ancestors of my Xu family did not rely on farming to build this huge family business." ”
"Since you have done the lo-mei business, let's just become bigger, you can't be a landlord, you can be a big boss."
"Although my father is not a landlord anymore, the connections left behind are still there, and it is not difficult to make the lo-mei business bigger, it depends on whether you have the courage to do so."
"Dad is old, I don't have the heart, I don't have the ability, your mother is right, I was not born to be a businessman." Father Xu said calmly.
Xu Fugui looked at the high-spirited Father Xu, and was slightly abrupt, since the family property was lost, Father Xu had never spoken so vigorously.
It can be seen that losing the Xu family's family business is like a thorn in his heart, bleeding all the time.
If he had the opportunity, he would definitely do everything he could to earn back the Xu family's family business.
The lo-mei business is this opportunity.
Xu Fugui was silent, he had to admit that the emaciated camel was bigger than the horse, and although his Xu family was down, as long as there was a chance, he could get up quickly.
With Xu's father's connections and resources, it is definitely an easy thing to make the lo-mei business bigger.
When the lo-mei business earns enough capital, it can be used to develop other businesses, whether it is to continue business or buy land, you can make a lot of money.
However, Xu Fugui shook his head, "Dad, I don't have this ability, and I don't want to be big." ”
Xu Fugui knew that he had a few catties and a few taels, and it was hard enough to run a lo-mei stall, and he really couldn't do anything about it.
Even if you can learn slowly in business, it is not a good thing for business to grow bigger, otherwise you will wait to be liquidated by Xintu.
Survive the past few years smoothly, and wait for social stability to slowly seek development.
The best way out is to become a worker, preferably a worker in a large unit, which is the most stable and safest.
"Why not?? Xu's father's beard blew up, and he asked with an incredulous glare.
Xu Fugui couldn't speak, he couldn't tell what would happen in a few years, it is estimated that Xu's father not only wouldn't believe it, but would also suspect that he had hysteria.
Father Xu looked at him with hatred, "Fugui, you are still young and you don't understand, Dad's connections, others may still remember the old love for a short time, help us with both hands." ”
"If it takes a long time, no one else will look at us twice."
Xu Fugui nodded helplessly, "Dad, I know this reason, but I have my own news, and it's not a good thing to have more money." ”
Father Xu laughed angrily, "No matter what kind of world it is, it's always right to be rich, and you can believe the words of your fox friends and dogs?" They are the last to see the people around them get rich. ”
"It's not those fox friends and dog friends, it's my friends in the north, and besides, your son really doesn't have the ability to do big business, so he is busy with such a lo-mei stall."
Father Xu snorted coldly and turned his head, "Brute, don't be next to me, get out of the way." ”
Xu Fugui got up silently and helped Xu's mother choose vegetables.
Tonight I ate leftovers from noon, and the washed sweet potatoes were not peeled and cut into strips on the surface of the rice, and then steamed and mixed as a staple food.
In addition, there is a dish and a soup, fried shredded potatoes, and a bowl of cauliflower soup with a little peanut oil added to it, which can be regarded as a good food.
It's not like before, not to mention the dishes, there is not even white rice, and it is sweet potatoes every day.
When the meal was served, Xu's father ate two bites hastily, bent over and coughed twice, and said as always: "I'll go outside for a walk." ”
Xu Fugui gulped the rice in the bowl into his mouth, got up vaguely and said, "Dad, I'll accompany you." ”
"You don't have to accompany me every time, you don't get old to this point."
"Hehe, I want to go out for a walk too."
"Fugui, when you're full, go out for a walk, just eat a bowl is enough." Xu Mu said.
Father Xu stepped on cloth shoes, his hands behind his back, and his posture was like that of a landlord, although he was wearing a rough black coat.
"Mother, you eat slowly."
Xu Fugui picked up the melon skin hat and put it on his head and chased him out.
Although Father Xu usually looks normal, Xu Fugui is still not at ease, for fear that he will hide something in his heart and accidentally have an accident.
In the evening, Xujia Village is the most lively time of the day, the chickens and dogs are crowing, the adults are scolding, and the wisps of cooking smoke rise from the chimney.
The two passed by the courtyard of someone else's house, and most of the people in the village greeted them warmly and invited them to come in and finish eating.
Although it is a polite word, you can still feel their simplicity.
"Fugui." Father Xu, who was walking in front, suddenly spoke.
"Huh?"
"No one in the village calls me lord anymore."
Xu Fugui smiled, "You're not a master again." ”
Father Xu sighed deeply, "Yes, I'm not a master anymore, and you're not a young master anymore." ”
Xu Fugui was very happy, "What's so good about being a young master." ”
Father Xu gave him a strange look, "I'm afraid you're not suffering from hysteria, who doesn't want to be a master and a young master?" ”
Indeed, before the establishment of the new rabbit, no one would think that being rich was a bad thing, everyone hated the landlord, and everyone wanted the landlord......
