80s.

The tide of the market economy has swept everyone, some people hold iron rice bowls and stick to the old-fashioned broken factories, holding a guaranteed salary of twenty or thirty yuan, and some people have resolutely embarked on the road to the south, hoping that in their minds, the development zone can be full of money.

The reality is that a few families are happy and a few are sad, and those who are bold and careful and lucky have indeed taken the ride of the times, made a fortune, and lived a good life.

But Meng Ran is not one of them.

The family is already so poor that they can't open the pot.

Meng Ran's father died of a work injury decades ago, and he only has an old lady who has been unable to take care of herself for nearly two years. The efficiency of the steel mill that I entered under my father's class is getting worse and worse, and the textile factory where my wife works is also on the verge of bankruptcy, and it will not be able to pay wages for five or six months.

He also had four children, the eldest fifteen years old and the youngest seven years old, all of whom were at school age.

As a man born and raised in the fifties, Meng Ran did not read much, barely finished primary school, but he deeply admired his teachers and dreamed of learning culture.

Therefore, even if many of his contemporaries let their children study secondary school, or simply join the work at sixteen or seventeen, and enter the factory as a worker to subsidize the family, he still gritted his yellow teeth and provided for the children to study.

Originally, it was also a dual-income family with Hemeimei, and he could live frugally, seeing that the boss was about to go to high school, the eldest immediately entered elementary school, a good factory, and suddenly said no, it won't work.

The family's livelihood, tuition fees, and heavy burdens are all on him.

The living can't let the urine suffocate to death, listening to the other people around describe the development and prosperity of the coastal area, and they can earn hundreds of ten yuan a day by setting up a stall on the side of the road, and they can work hard for a month, and they have to have the best factory benefits and the highest bonuses.

Meng Ran's heart was moved, and it happened that the factory issued a notice that he could voluntarily buy out the seniority and receive a sum of money, so he was the first to rush up and rushed to the Shenzhen market with the seniority money he received.

Developed cities are indeed different, the people who come and go on the street are wearing new clothes that he has never seen before, and the lavishly decorated Western restaurants discourage him just by hearing the price.

Business is prosperous, but what does all this have to do with Meng Ran? He has been a steel puller all his life, and he doesn't know anything about doing business, and he doesn't even know where to go for wholesale, cheap and high-quality.

With both eyes and a touch of darkness, with a single passion, reality will teach you to be a man.

The Shenzhen market is indeed full of money, but not everyone can pick up this money.

It costs more than 30 yuan to stay in a hotel for three days, and the meal is even more expensive than the sky, and the worst thing is that it costs two cents to even go to the toilet.

I couldn't find a way at all, the money in my hand flowed out like running water, and Meng Ran wanted to cry without tears.

No one knows how much people can do in times of despair.

Meng Ran spent the last penny he brought from home, and he didn't have the face to go home at all, so he began to take risks, relying on his muscular brute strength, specifically targeting men and women who came from the same place as him, had money, but had little social experience.

He has a simple face, and the hearts of people in that era are still simple, and he easily succeeded a few times, and the most difficult thing for him is the method of disposing of corpses.

The Shenzhen market is good, but there are too many people, and there are people everywhere.

He dragged the woven bag into the mountain with his back, once, twice, three times.

The quick money to make a living, and the mouth waiting for dinner at home can make people forget the consequences of breaking the law and committing crimes for a while.

But when you walk a lot at night, you will always encounter ghosts.

Meng Ran succeeded again, and when he was burying the corpse, he ran into someone.

The man's body was shrouded in black qi, and he couldn't see his face clearly, so he only leaned out slightly, as if he was a little curious about what Meng Ran was doing.

Killing people and throwing corpses are seen, who is not confused! Meng Ran sat on the ground, trembling like chaff, and his brain was blank.

Then he heard the man say, "You want money?" Asking for a lot of money? ”

The belongings that Meng Ran had just taken from the dead man were casually put into his trouser pockets, and now they were half-hidden and half-exposed, and they were being looked at by the man.

Meng Ran, who was still scared to death, suddenly became unafraid when he heard this. He has a cheap life, and every day he lives is earned, and what is more terrible than starving to death?

"Can you give me money?"

"Not bad."

"Do you want as much as you want?"

"Not bad."

Such a good thing? Meng Ranhu looked at the strange person in front of him suspiciously, and there was always an intuition that told him that it was dangerous.

"What do I need to do?" A person in his forties who no longer knows the truth that there is no free lunch in the world is a pure fool.

"I want your family."

Need?

Meng Ran's face changed, and he wanted to refuse.

He embarked on the road of no return, for the sake of the old mother who was about to stop taking medicine, and the children who were about to drop out of school.

What if they're all gone, and if he's rich?

"I don't want your mother's life. But only one of your children can be kept, and the rest will be mine. ”

"Who are you? Why should I believe you? ”

I have four children, the eldest is good at learning and sensible, the second is not so bright but the most friendly siblings, the third is a female doll, every day my father calls himself very affectionate, the fourth is still a little bean ding, very naughty, so that he can't help laughing out loud when he looks at it.

Before he knew it, he had begun to think very seriously about the strengths and weaknesses of his four children.

"I can give you wealth, and I can make your family rich and prosperous."

"Who the hell are you?"

"People? I'm not human. The figure in the black mist gradually became clear, it had human facial features, but the skin on its body was covered with dense scales.

It's like a snake!

The folk worship the four immortals, Meng Ran saw that the old man in the family had placed the god position, and he believed it more or less.

What's more, he wants to get ahead too much.

Relying on the money obtained from the robbery, he can only barely guarantee that he will not starve to death, how can he return to his hometown?

The despicable side of human nature is undoubtedly revealed at this time, he Meng Ran resigned and went south, how many colleagues and friends saw him off with the psychology of watching jokes, if he went home without anything, but there was still a place for him?

Rumors kill people, and spitting stars can drown him.

Now that he has embarked on the road of no return, with four lives in his body, he has no way to retreat, why not listen to the words of this snake demon, use the lives of three children, change the future, and not lose!

MD, it's done!

Meng Ran gritted his teeth, stomped his feet, bit his fingers, and pressed a bloody handprint on the snake demon's strange contract.

So the era of the Meng family opened, what did he do to make money, from the initial primitive accumulation to the present, the real estate business of the Meng Group is thriving, and the Meng family is full of flowers and cooking oil.

It's just that the heirs are too dead.

Whether Meng Ran regretted it before he died, I'm afraid only he knows.

He thought that all the snake demon wanted was the lives of his three children until the birth of his grandchildren......
