Maybe it's because the golden gourd vitality has completely transformed Ping'an, and even his problem of lying in bed has been changed, or it may be driven by money, so as soon as the day dawns, Ping'an takes the initiative to get up, and after washing his face, he has to follow his second aunt Yuan Xiaoli to the vegetable market.

When he arrived at the market, his second uncle Yu Yong had already bought breakfast and was waiting for him, a bowl of steaming glutinous rice and pork knuckle rice, with some oil residue, peanuts, and green onions floating on it, which was fragrant and tempting.

"Auntie, the glutinous rice pork knuckle rice is so delicious, remember to buy me another bowl tomorrow. ”

As soon as these words came out, for the first time in Ping'an's life, he felt that his face was so thick and numb, how did I become so shameless, I really wanted to find a crack in the ground to hide.

"Okay, I'll buy it for you tomorrow. Be safe and obedient, go play by yourself, don't go far. ”

At this moment, it was the time when business was booming, where could Yuan Xiaoli take care of him, and responded casually, and was busy giving people change and weighing vegetables.

Yu Yong was even busier, and he didn't even have the time to smoke a cigarette, but after estimating that Yuan Xiaoyi might be going to the city, Yu Yong took Ping An to the bus station together.

It is said that it is a bus station, but in fact it is an open space, several walls, and only one entrance and exit, and there are all kinds of restaurants, noodle shops, noodle shops, powder shops and grocery stores on both sides, with people and cars and pedestrians.

After waiting for about ten minutes at the entrance and exit of the bus station, I finally saw a shuttle bus with a "Horse Washing" signboard hanging in front of the windshield.

The car has not stopped yet, Ping An has already seen his mother, maybe because he is too tired, or it may be the first time to do such a big business, Yuan Xiaoyi looked a little nervous, and there were beads of sweat on her forehead.

"Sister, didn't my brother come?" asked Yu Yong, staring at the already empty shuttle bus.

"No, he said he was too tired to come. Yuan Xiaoyi replied while carrying pork from the carriage and getting off the car, which was packed in urea bags, bag after bag, a full fifteen or sixteen bags, taking up a lot of space, at least eight or nine hundred catties.

"I don't think my brother is tired, but he can't get out of bed when he's drunk. Hey, he's lazy, it seems that he hasn't changed at all. After Yu Yong complained dissatisfiedly, he took the initiative to find the pallet truck that pulled the goods.

"Mom, how many catties of meat did you take? Ping An looked at the pork on the ground, and didn't care about the fact that Ping Zhongjing didn't come at all, he had already sworn to this father that he wouldn't care about him, and now his mind was full of making money and golden beans.

"More than eight hundred and twenty pounds. ”

"So much. Ping'an stuck out his tongue: "How much does it cost a catty?"

Yuan Xiaoyi hesitated for a moment, lowered her voice and said in his ear: "A piece of seven cents, your brother Wang and Uncle Liu also gave me three catties of pork leg meat for each pig, don't talk nonsense about this price." ”

"I'm not stupid, how can I talk nonsense. ”

Sure enough, the receiving price was lower than the retail price in the town, and it was a full three cents lower, which was far beyond Ping An's expectations. Soon, his eyes were attracted by a soft urea bag: "Mom, what is in it? It doesn't look like pork." ”

"It's pork belly, fat sausage, pork kidney, small intestine and pig brain, which are ordered by the restaurant owners. Yuan Xiaoyi replied casually, busy counting the number of bags, this is a cargo worth nearly two thousand yuan, and one bag is lost, which is dozens of hundreds of yuan.

Ping'an had a flash of inspiration in his head, and he caught a way to make money.

"Mom, can you not sell all these pork offal to the restaurant owner, give me some of it, and I will definitely make more money by selling it at my second aunt's stall." ”

When Ping An investigated the market price in the meat market yesterday, he noticed that pork offal was easier to sell, and the price was also high, with pork belly at least about three yuan per catty, two yuan and five cents a pair of pork loins, and pork liver and fat sausage also floating between this price range, and he immediately thought carefully about making a profit from it.

My mother makes a lot of money, and I have to make a little money myself, otherwise I can take money from my mother to buy golden beans and give them to the golden gourd to eat?

Seeing that Yuan Xiaoyi was silent, Ping An hurriedly said: "Mom, it's settled, our family's business, but I came up with an idea." Now that I'm grown up, I have to earn some pocket money for myself, and I can't keep asking you to give me money to spend!"

Yuan Xiaoyi hesitated slightly, then nodded in agreement. When she thought about it, she would give her son a few cents and a dollar to the sky, but she didn't notice that there was a golden light in Ping'an's cunning eyes, and she had her own little abacus in her heart.

The cart came, and it was a sturdy man in his thirties who pulled the cart, Yuan Xiaoyi made some requests to him, and then negotiated the price before starting to carry the pork to the cart.

Yuan Xiaoyi followed the nearest route to start the delivery and walked into the first restaurant.

People in ninety-seven years are usually very trustworthy, and the restaurant owner takes a general look at whether the pork is fresh or not, and then readily counts the accounts and gives money...... Then came the second, and then the third...... After delivering the restaurants near the bus station, let the cart owner go to the vegetable market.

Ping An watched one after another pig offal being taken away by the restaurant owner, and was so distressed that he clung to the urea bag containing the pig offal, and all he took away was his money.

"Mom, there are only five pork belly, five pairs of kidneys, and a few catties of fat intestines left, you may have to leave them for me to sell. Without waiting for Yuan Xiaoyi to agree, Ping An took down the urea bag containing pig offal from the board cart and placed it in a conspicuous place in the second aunt's vegetable stall.

"This kid is in the eye of money. Yuan Xiaoyi was in a good mood, only said a few words to him, and then went to deliver the goods.

"Ping'an, can you do it?" Yu Yong was a little worried, three yuan a pound of things, don't mess up the child and lose money.

"Isn't there a second uncle here, just give me the scales and recognize the money then. "Ping An guarded the pig offal, watched the people coming and going, and did not turn his head back to the tunnel.

"Be careful, don't steal anything. The second uncle said a few words and went to get busy with his own business.

Ping An didn't even respond, staring at everyone who walked in front of him, hoping that they would stop and buy his offal.

It's a pity that more than ten minutes passed, not to mention that someone bought it, and no one even asked.

Ping An is anxious, after all, he is a child, and as soon as his enthusiasm passes, he can't sit still.

"Little ghost, these pig offal are yours?" a woman in her forties took a fancy to a pork belly while carrying a cabbage.

"Yes, yes, it's all mine. Ping'an's eyes lit up, and he immediately replied, "Auntie, do you want a pork belly?"

"What price. ”

"Three dollars and two cents a catty, a full catty two, one or two less to lose a catty. Ping An learned the tone he learned from his second aunt, but he bit the price, and he was counting on these pig offals to make money to buy golden beans, and not a penny less.

"It's too expensive, it's only three yuan in the meat market. ”

"Auntie, the offal I sell is good, they are all raised by farmers, they are all cooked food, they are either artichoke or sweet potatoes, and I have never been fed a little pig feed. ”

Talking and talking, the people of Ping'an were not nervous, learning to speak to adults, and picked up the pork belly that the women fancied: "Auntie, look at this color, how red and tender it is, it is definitely not something that feed pigs can have, the price is naturally more expensive, but it is healthy to eat!"

"You clever little devil, listen to what you say, give me a scale. The woman listened to the music and said cheerfully.

"Okay. ”

Ping An excitedly took it and asked the second aunt to pass the scale, and then collected the money himself, feeling happy in his heart, this is what he earned.

With experience, coupled with Ping An and intelligence, the remaining offal was sold out in less than two hours.

With the money from selling pig offal, Ping An smirked, and when the second aunt was not paying attention, he secretly hid five yuan in his shoes, and after hesitating, he hid another two yuan.

He tried his best to save money to buy golden beans to feed the golden gourd, and now he finally saved the first money, even if it is still far from the goal of golden beans, but Ping An has already seen the second vitality.

Not long after he sold out, his mother also ran out of goods, and the mother and son didn't dare to count how much they made in the vegetable market, so they packed up and hurried to the second aunt's house.

After entering the house and closing the door, my mother took out all the money, unfolded it one by one, counted it several times, and counted it several times, after confirming today's income, she was shocked.

"Mom, Mom, how much money did you make today?" Ping An looked at the thick stack of money in his mother's hand, and his mouth opened with a smile.

"With the money you made from selling offal, and the money you have to pay back to Brother Wang, we have made a total of five hundred and seventeen yuan and eight cents. Yuan Xiaoyi said dumbly, as if she couldn't believe that she had earned more than 500 yuan a day.

Bumper!

Ping'an's little heart beat violently in his chest, more than five hundred yuan, he could buy several grams of golden beans, but he preferred to see his mother's joy and satisfied smile after making money.

Money must be earned, golden beans must be bought, and the mother must be filial.

However, it is definitely not possible to ask him to hand over the seven yuan he has in his private possession, and his mother can earn more than herself.

With huge profits in front of them, the mother and son duo burst out with greater enthusiasm for the pork business and anticipation for the future.

Yuan Xiaoyi hurriedly packed up and headed to the next township to catch the market.

This time, with a thirst for money, peace also went.

So, in the past ten days before the start of school, their mother and son can be seen on the streets and alleys of the county and on the streets of ten miles and eight townships.

When he was tired of delivering goods, Ping An climbed on the cart to take a rest, and his mother helped the cart owner push the cart in the back.

When I was thirsty when I walked, I drank the spring water in the mountains in the countryside, and when I was hungry, a few steamed buns, a bowl of noodles, the portion was sufficient, and it was full.

In order to live and achieve the goal, the mother and son started with more than 100 yuan given by their second aunt, and in just over ten days, they earned a huge amount of money for the family.

More than 7,800 yuan, no, it is more than 8,000 yuan, and Ping An has already hidden more than 100 yuan.

In the past ten days, Ping An has only seen Ping Zhongjing twice, this unreliable father does not care whether the business of the mother and son is a loss or a profit, and follows some idlers in the town and former fox friends and dog friends all day long, either playing cards or drinking and eating meat, drunk and dreaming of death.

"Mom, we make so much money, can't we let Dad know, he is used to being lavish, and people love to gamble, and our family can't afford his consumption. ”

Yuan Xiaoyi naturally knew that Ping Zhongjing was unreliable, twelve years ago when she was pregnant with her son and was about to give birth, Ping Zhongjing dared to take the money of the supply and marketing cooperatives to go out to play in the mountains and rivers without permission, she knew that there was nothing in this world that he couldn't do.

The mother and son quickly reached an agreement on the article "fire prevention, theft prevention, and peace and loyalty".

decided to deposit the money in the credit union, and the passbook would be placed in the second aunt's house, so as not to give Ping Zhongjing a chance to take advantage of.

On February 20, Ping An accompanied his mother to the township for the last time to collect pork and sell it in the city, and while the adults were not paying attention, he sneaked out to buy a golden bean weighing nearly two grams with all his private money in a pawn gold shop near the vegetable market.

When Ping An took the golden beans from the hands of the gold shop boss, the golden gourd, which had been silent in his body for half a month, trembled again, and appeared in his heart, exuding a wonderful aura.

Ping An felt the abnormal energy, clear thinking, and bright vision all over his body, and his sense of hearing and smell all improved a lot.

The world around him was once again renewed, and all kinds of mysterious feelings filled his heart.

At this moment, Ping An felt that the half month of effort was worth it.

Because, the golden gourd gave him more returns, which cannot be estimated, and he will benefit for life.
