Chapter 3 Toad

Zhang Wanru rode a bicycle to the most prosperous small commodity street in the city, she had already made up her mind, she had to do business. Relying on working in an insurance company to earn a salary of 1,500 yuan a month, he is not even allowed to support his family, and he has to pay kindergarten fees for his two children. The most important thing is that more than 30,000 yuan of foreign debt has been pulled down over the years.

Although his parents were helping him, his two older brothers quietly gave him one or two hundred yuan a month. The food that came was not very comfortable to eat. You still have to rely on yourself to be strong.

She drove all the way, observed all the way.

Many factory workers are now being laid off more and more. There are some idle people walking on the streets. Seeing them coming and going in a hurry, they are all in the same mind as themselves. In order to find a way out of life, you must not only eat well, but also eat well.

When passing by the dormitory compound in the third district, I saw that some storerooms of more than ten square meters in front of the building were also converted into small shops, selling trinkets, snacks, clothes, vegetables, and so on.

In order to attract customers, a tape recorder is also placed in front of the store, and pop music is played.

At this time, a shop selling cassette tapes was playing Teresa Teng's "Sweet Honey". Her voice sounded in the air like a brass bell and a song of a warbler, and it also entered the ears and hearts of those who passed by;

You smile sweetly, like flowers blooming in the spring breeze,

Open in the spring breeze.

Where is it

Where have I seen you

Your smile is so familiar

I can't remember it for a moment

Ah, in a dream in a dream, in a dream in a dream I have seen you

How sweet a smile is

It's you, you're you

It's you who dreamed of------

This song is like a warm sunshine penetrating the heavy haze that has accumulated in Zhang Wanru's heart, making her feel more energetic, and the fighting spirit in her heart is gradually growing. In the future, I have to have a spring breeze smile, and I have to have a sweet mood.

When she came to the small commodity wholesale street in the city, she saw that business was booming here, and all kinds of supplies in life were available. Those who bought and sold, all with golden light in their eyes, and all of them bargained for the greatest profit. All kinds of smiles are also for the purpose of completing a transaction service.

In this endless flow of people, the loud and loud voices returned to the sky, and the smell of money could be tasted everywhere.

It is nothing more than the saying of the ancients: "The bustle of the world is for profit; The world is all for profit".

People all over the world are busy and busy, and the bustling competition is nothing more than for their own interests and fame. Since they all live in this red dust, no one is exempt from vulgarity.

Well! Then who are you polite to? Joining the tide of this era is. And you have to run faster than others, smile brighter than others, have a lotus tongue more than others, have a fragrant mouth, and have more perseverance and fighting spirit.

Whenever she saw a door with a large number of customers, Zhang Wanru would stop and watch for a while.

In front of a hula hoop store that sells children to play, I saw dozens of people waiting to pay and pick up the goods.

The boss is a couple, the proprietress is not tall, she has a very happy smile, her face is not unusual, but his clever mouth is not ordinary.

I heard a woman ask her, "Boss, are you selling cheaply here?" Seven dollars a piece, or the wholesale price. I asked for a hundred at a time, and I sold them at the market, and each one earned only a dollar, sometimes only a few cents. I'm always picking up the goods from you, so you have to see something, right? ”

"Hey! Big sister, I earn less than you, and I only earn five cents each. Don't look at such a big pomp and circumstance that I have laid out, and the working capital is tens of thousands. We are laid-off workers, and our families are all waiting for dinner, and it is not easy for us to work hard to earn this small profit. Can't let us lose money and make money, right? ”

The proprietress is really a lotus flower, her small eyes are shrewd and cunning, and her sweet smile is full of happiness of making a fortune.

Choked on the customer's ability to answer. I thought, if you can't make a profit, you can't afford to be early, and if you don't make money, can you still be considered a trader?

Zhang Wanru walked around the market for more than an hour, went to the adjacent vegetable market, and bought a pound of pork, celery, leeks, tofu, eggplant and cauliflower. Then she rode her bicycle home, and when she rode up a steep slope, she was so tired and sweaty that she really had no strength.

She got out of the car, parked it, and sat down on the steps in front of a luxuriously furnished jewelry store.

After she sat down, she took out a handkerchief from her pocket and wiped the sweat from her forehead, still thinking about the woman who sold hula hoops.

I thought to myself, in my last life, I took the insoles made by the women in the village to the market to sell, although I was ugly, but the insoles I sold were of good quality and color. I can earn dozens of yuan a day, which is to keep up with the wages of the workers who go to work for a day.

Zhang Wanru recalled that when she started a small business in her previous life, three people walked out of the jewelry store, and one of them walked down the steps and turned her head to look at Zhang Wanru who was wiping her sweat. A playful smile immediately appeared on his face.

Just listen to his sound like a male duck, which came into Zhang Wanru's ears.

"Hey! Isn't this Little Pepper Zhang Wanru? Hehe, I heard that you came back from the ghost gate. It seems that the two of us are still very close. What do you think? Is it sitting here waiting for me. ”

Zhang Wanru followed the voice and looked over. A slightly chubby body, each only about 1.7 meters, was looking at her with a cheap smile.

He was his classmate in high school, Liu Lingyun. This guy relies on his father to be the deputy mayor, and he is arrogant every day. When he was at school, he constantly harassed himself and gave himself the nickname Pepper.

After failing the college entrance examination, he opened a construction company by himself. Now Ru not only bought a car, but also wore five people and six people, and there was no shortage of followers around him.

Although he has been married and had children a long time ago, he still constantly harasses himself. Especially in the past two years, he is a villain who takes advantage of people's danger.

Zhang Wanru squinted at him, then leaned sideways, and looked straight behind him.

Seeing Zhang Wanru's expression, Liu Lingyun turned around and glanced behind him, and asked strangely, "What are you looking at?" ”

Zhang Wanru pursed her lips and said lightly, "Your crocodile tail is exposed again." Don't use your dirty little bit of careful thinking with me, stay where it's cool. ”

Liu Lingyun smiled wickedly, glanced at the people around him, and said indifferently: "I think you are very cool here." ”

After speaking, he walked straight forward, sat next to Zhang Wanru, and whispered in her ear: "Follow me, I will spoil you to the sky." Give you 5,000 yuan a month to support your family. How about staying with me for at least 10 nights a month? ”

Zhang Wanru looked at his hateful face for three seconds as if she was looking at an idiot, and then asked with a straight face, "Have you ever heard a sentence?" 'The toad lies on the face of the foot, does not bite the diaphragm'. You're the toad. ”

Liu Lingyun immediately changed his face and said viciously: "Damn!" This young master, Yushu is in the wind, everyone loves him, and the flowers bloom, why did he become a toad in front of you? What are you? Haven't you heard people say that you are a dead star, a disaster star? Ben Dashao doesn't care about these things, it's already giving you face, and you still don't know how to lift up. ”

Zhang Wanru laughed angrily and said coldly: "Then you can go to other woods to shop for flowers." It doesn't matter what star I am? It's none of your business. If you want to be self-renowned, you can roll as far as you want. ”

When Liu Lingyun heard this, he immediately turned his face, stood up, and said viciously: "You go and see, you can't escape from the palm of my hand in this life, sooner or later, one day, I will let you lie under me obediently." ”

Zhang Wanru said unceremoniously: "You toad will never become a frog." ”

After watching Liu Lingyun throw out a vicious word, he left angrily.

Zhang Wanru was also so angry that she felt bored. This bastard, relying on the power of his Lao Tzu, really regards himself as a character. In fact, his father has not been able to mention it all these years, and it is his father who is acting as a demon.

She calmed the anger in her heart, got up too, and walked to the bike, thinking, fuck, the mood that was just getting up, and let this big man smash again. I glanced back at the store I had just sat in, Daxin Jewelry Store.

suddenly remembered the pair of jade bracelets that my mother gave me when I got married. I thought to myself, maybe it could be worth a few dollars, no matter what business I wanted to do, I couldn't do anything without money in my hands. Let's find out later.

It was already half past eleven when I got home, and my mother-in-law picked up the two children from kindergarten.

Yuchen and Yulu saw their mother come back, happily gathered around her, talking about interesting things in the kindergarten.

Wanru looked at her two children, both of whom were already six years old, and looked thin and weak, and stopped them in her arms. He said to his mother-in-law: "Mom, I bought some pork, you can stir-fry the vegetables first, and we will eat leek pork dumplings in the evening to improve the food." ”

The mother-in-law agreed and went into the kitchen, and when the two children heard that they were going to eat dumplings, their mouths were drooling, and their happy eyes were shining.

After dinner, Zhang Wanru took her two children to her parents' house.

My parents were eating, and in addition to the steamed buns, there was a plate of pickles and a plate of fried bean sprouts with tofu skin, as well as two bowls of corn paste.

Wanru knew that her parents' money had been taken out to treat herself. There is also a lot of foreign debt. I felt a pang of sourness in my heart. Originally, I wanted to ask for more money with my parents and go to the night market to do some small business at night, but I couldn't open my mouth at this time.

Said weakly: "Mom and Dad, I'm all right, I'll go to work tomorrow." ”

Mother Zhang Cuiping hurriedly stood up, took out 200 yuan from the drawer of the coffee table and put it in front of Wanru, and said, "My body is still very weak, so I will rest at home for a few more days." Buy some nutritional supplements, so that you don't have to rush to work again. If you have me and your father, you won't be hungry. ”

Zhang Wanru's eyes were full of tears, and she didn't say anything. Put the money straight into your pocket.

Father Zhang Fakui said: "When you are better, take time to go to Lihua Food Processing Factory, I told their boss that at the end of each month, you will sort out the accounts for them and report to the tax bureau." You will be paid $800 a month. It will not affect your normal work. ”

Wang Cuiping also hurriedly said: "Yes, your father said that their accounts are very simple, and it is not appropriate to hire an accountant for a long time." I'm only busy for one or two days a month. Earn a little bit, and you can also subsidize the family. ”

Zhang Wanru didn't want to refute her father's kindness, and said, "Okay." This situation exists in such small factories, please find a few more, I will definitely be able to do a good job for them. ”

Seeing that his father didn't answer, he wanted to mention that he wanted to do some small business, but he didn't dare to say it. After sitting for a while, he left with the child.
