I really just want to make money

Chapter 1

"Hey, Zhang Hua, it's your turn to speak, why are you dozing off!"

At the same time as urging sounds came from his ears, Zhang Hua felt someone pushing on his shoulders, and opened his eyes tiredly to look around.

There was a card table under the dim fluorescent lamp. People sat around the table. Everyone's face was livid or pale. Anyway, they were very tired. There were some scattered poker cards on the table, and two people also had Three cards, and two others have already folded.

Zhang Hua raised his hand and looked at his cards. Three Kings. After taking a deep breath, Zhang Hua threw the cards on the table and said, "I won't follow."

Everyone at the table showed surprise. Zhang Hua grabbed the 100-odd quick cash in front of him, got up and said, "Brothers, play slowly, brothers can't stand it anymore, go back to sleep!"

"Isn't that good?" A guy with a swollen face said, "You are the one calling to play cards, and now the brothers are getting excited, but you want to withdraw first?"

Zhang Hua smiled and said, "Then how do I fix it? I'll let you beat me up to vent my anger?"

Now no one spoke anymore, Zhang Hua took the money and walked out, looked up at the bleak moon in the sky, and murmured: "Winter of [-], what a memorable era."

Before Zhang Hua returned from rebirth, he was playing cards with some classmates just now, and also dozed off, but he did not expect to wake up and return to the winter of [-].

The reason why Zhang Hua fixed the time was because he still remembered the scene just now. The 120 yuan he sold to the sugar factory for two thousand catties of sugar cane was lost by him with a handful of three K.

At this point in time, Zhang Hua is a bum, who knows how to play cards after doing nothing all day long. The four people in his family only have three acres of land, and there is also a younger sister who is studying. Heart.

Thinking of this, Zhang Hua couldn't help but clenched his fists, and had to work hard to make money.

Zhang Hua returned to his home under the moonlight, and after knocking on the door, his father's voice came from inside, "Who is it!"

"Dad, I'm back!"

"Don't open the door for him, just let him freeze to death and let him go outside. I'm afraid I've lost all the money I got from selling sugar cane, otherwise how could I come back at this time!"

The voice of the little girl Zhang Qin sounded, with some resentment in her tone, some hatred for iron, and even a hint of crying in the end.

Zhang Hua smiled wryly, and shouted: "I didn't lose all, and I won two dollars. I won't play cards from now on."

"Can dogs be changed and eat shit?" Zhang Qin's sharp voice continued, "How many times have you said this?"

At this time, Zhang's father had already come out and opened the door, Zhang Hua passed the money to the old man after entering the house, and shouted to the back room: "I really won't play cards in the future, I will go out to work in a few days, work hard to earn some money, and save for your tuition! "

The room suddenly became quiet, mainly because Zhang Hua's change was too big, even if it was just a verbal talk, it still made people a little unbelievable.

Zhang Hua smiled, didn't explain anymore, went straight back to his room and fell asleep.

At breakfast the next day, Zhang Qin, who was fourteen or fifteen years old, kept looking at Zhang Hua, and finally said with strange eyes: "It seems to be a little different, Boss Zhang, how did you figure it out?"

"Boss Zhang is your name?" It was Zhang's mother who spoke, and she slapped her daughter on the back of the head, and then gave Zhang Hua a poached egg in Zhang Qin's angry eyes, and said with a smile on the corner of her mouth: "Hua Zi You're sensible now!"

Zhang Qin said with some disdain: "People in their twenties, it's too late to be sensible now, isn't it?"

"If you talk in such a sly way, I won't spend the money I earn?" Zhang Hua raised his eyebrows.

Zhang Qin curled her lips and said, "Cut, it's not rare, I will only be Amitabha if you don't cause trouble to my family."

Father Zhang put down the bowl and chopsticks, looked at Zhang Hua seriously, and asked, "Have you really thought about going out to work?"

Zhang Hua nodded and said, "Think about it, there are only a few acres of land at home, and people can only starve to death. It's better to go out and do something casually than at home!"

"Where are you going?"

Zhang Hua thought for a while and said, "Let's go to the south. There are many factories over there, so it's easy to find work. Don't most people in the village go to the south!"

The mountain city is a big city for exporting labor services, mainly because the per capita land is only about one mu, and Zhang Hua and the others have less than one mu of land here. If they can't eat well at home, they can only go out and work hard.

Father Zhang thought for a while and said, "The fare will be more than 100 yuan, plus the initial pocket expenses will cost at least two or three hundred yuan. Tomorrow, I will sell the big pig and add the money for selling sugar cane. Let’s take it together, Poor Family Rich Road.”

For this son who is idle at home and always goes out to play cards all day, Father Zhang has nothing to do with him. Now that he is willing to go out to work, Father Zhang naturally supports him, which is better than staying at home all the time.

Zhang Qin opened her mouth, but said nothing in the end.

Zhang Hua smiled and said: "It doesn't need that much, just enough for the fare. There are many fellow villagers there, so I won't starve to death. My family also needs money. Xiaoqin will have to pay school fees next year. Next year, seeds, pesticides, etc. , chemical fertilizers, etc. cannot be saved.”

In this era, agriculture is still subsidizing industry, so the burden on farmers is still very heavy. After being busy all year round, they can only make ends meet. It is basically impossible to save money.

Hearing what Zhang Hua said, Zhang Qin was really surprised. Zhang's mother smiled a little deeper, and gave Zhang Hua another poached egg.

"One is enough!" Zhang Hua said and put the poached egg into Zhang Qin's bowl, and said with a smile, "I'll eat it for you. I will get a good grade in the exam next year and try to go to the county to go to high school."

"I don't want to eat your saliva!" Zhang Qin took the poached egg back angrily, and said, "Don't spend more money to go to high school in the county? It's so far back and forth, and the fare is quite a lot."

Facing this big brother who seemed to mature overnight, Zhang Qin was somewhat uncomfortable.

"You don't need to worry about money. I will work to support you, your brother. When you are promising in the future, just return it to me."

"You should take care of yourself first. I heard that the south is very chaotic, and you still have a temporary residence permit. Don't find a job and be arrested for a few months."

"That's not true. There are so many fellow villagers over there. If you can't do it, you can find something to do on the construction site. Your brother and I still have strength."

Breakfast ended amidst the things surrounding part-time work. Zhang Hua and the others basically had nothing to do in winter except cutting sugar cane.

So after breakfast, Zhang Hua went to the town to get some half-scrap glass and came back. He made some glass boxes with bamboo frames and put them in the bamboo forest. He put half a bowl of fried rice in each glass box and harvested 20 pieces the next day. Multiple large rats.

Half a month later, Zhang Hua harvested more than 50 catties of dried rats. With more than 100 quick money and a sack of dried rats on his back, Zhang Hua set off under the eyes of his parents and younger sister.

After crossing the river by boat and staying up on the train for three days and three nights, Zhang Hua arrived in Yangcheng.

In this era, it is really difficult to ride the train. There are so many people that you can’t sleep at all. This was just a few years ago.

After getting off the car, the first thing Zhang Hua did was to call a tricycle to the nearest vegetable market.

Pork is only five yuan a catty now, but the dried mouse meat can be sold for more than ten yuan a catty, which is still the wholesale price, but you have to be able to speak Cantonese, so it is best to sell them separately.
