Siheyuan: Cao Liang's rise

night.

Cao Liang and a few others were drinking and reminiscing in the yard.

"Master Cao, I offer you a toast."

Xiao Wu raised his glass, Cao Liang drank it, and then Xiao Wu said with emotion: "Master Cao, I am only a few years older than you, but looking at your appearance, if I tell people you are my son, people will believe it."

Gangzi agreed: "Brother Xiaowu is right. The brothers are all old, but he is still as young as ever."

"Xiao Wu, my senior brother just took advantage of me, and you are trying to do the same to me?"

Cao Liang said dissatisfiedly.

But I felt a little lost.

Gangzi is right, the brothers are all old.

There is also his wife Meng Xiaoxing. Although she still has charm, there are already some wrinkles at the corners of her eyes.

Cao Liang didn’t know if he would always be like this.

Others envied him, but he himself couldn't be happy.

"What's the matter?"

Xiao Wu looked at Chi Hu.

Chi Hu recounted what happened today when Cao Lianggang came.

Suddenly, Lao Hei and Xiao Wu both burst into laughter.

Over the years, several people have listened to Cao Liang's advice and started their own families.

Lao Hei already has two daughters.

Xiaowu has only one son.

Chi Hu also has a son and a daughter.

My daughter is only three years old.

The women and children over there each got one.

After three rounds of drinking.

The women and children have gone back to rest.

It’s time to get to the point.

Chi Hu said: "Liangzi, you come now, isn't it time?"

After these words were spoken, Xiaowu and Laohei also looked at Cao Liang.

They all remembered what Cao Liang had said.

And now they have to support their families, so they definitely need to make money.

"Well, it's almost time to get started."

Cao Liang said, "Brother, don't tell me you haven't made any moves in these years."

"Uh... nothing, just a little fight. You know, we have to eat too."

Chi Hu said embarrassedly.

"pretty good."

Cao Liang smiled and said, "But it is indeed a minor fight."

Chi Hu said excitedly: "Liangzi, are you planning to do something big? Don't forget your buddies!"

"That's right, Master Cao, don't forget I'm here." Xiao Wu echoed.

Lao Hei also nodded.

“This is why I came here this time.”

Cao Liang asked, "Brother, there should be a lot of goods from Hong Kong flowing into Shanglu in the past two years?"

Chi Hu was also a man of quick thinking. Hearing this, he said, "Liangzi, are you planning to buy goods in Shanglu and sell them in Sijiu City? But is it possible to do business in Sijiu City now?"

"Not yet, there's still some time to go, but in less than two years, things will change."

Cao Liang shook his head.

"What I mean is that even at that time, this method can only be regarded as a third-hand method. Although there is profit to be made, it will not be much."

Chi Hu and others nodded repeatedly.

Those people took the goods from Xiangjiang and brought them back to Shanglu, and then took them from Shanglu to Sijiucheng, so it was already the third hand.

The profit will not be much.

Chi Hu was surprised and asked, "Liangzi, are you planning to go directly to Hong Kong to get the goods?"

Xiao Wu frowned and said, "But we don't know anyone in Hong Kong, this is not going to be easy!"

“This is also the purpose of my visit this time.”

Cao Liang asked, "Brother, can you get a certificate to go to Hong Kong?"

"can."

Chi Hu said proudly: "I haven't spent all these years in Shanglu in vain. The key is what happens next."

"That depends on you, brothers."

Cao Liang said: "I will give you a few goals. If you can get them, you will definitely make a lot of money in the future."

Chi Hu and his companions had no doubt about Cao Liang's words. After all, he was the one who saved them.

If Cao Liang had not asked them to leave Sijiu City, they would have been arrested.

Besides, Cao Liang’s predictions were all verified several times.

"Liangzi, aren't you going with us?"

Chi Hu was a little unsure.

After all, that was Hong Kong, and they had never been there.

Cao Liang shook his head. "I still have a job and can't leave. I'll resign in two years."

"Okay then! Let's go take a look first."

Then Cao Liang wrote something to Chi Hu.

The next day, Cao Liang set out back to Sijiu City.

As soon as I returned to the courtyard, I met Dabao.

"Dad, you're back!"

Dabao greeted him, but his eyes were looking at Cao Liang's bag.

Cao Liang laughed and scolded: "I think you want a gift?"

Hey!

Dabao laughed and said, "Dad, you will definitely bring some souvenirs when you go to Shanglu. Even if it's not for me, it will definitely be for my aunt."

"You're indispensable. Let's talk about it when we get back."

"Hey, Dad, let me help you carry your things."

Dabao is ten years old now.

However, because of his bad luck, he has never been to school, so Cao Liang and Yaya usually teach him.

But now that the ten-year storm has passed, schools should resume classes.

I'll send him there when the time comes.

The level of questions doesn't need to be too high, but at least you have to be literate.

But Dabao is still very sensible and there is no need to worry about him.

"Mom, Dad is back."

Dabao shouted as he ran.

Meng Xiaoxing walked out of the house with a big belly. It seemed that she was already seven or eight months pregnant.

Meng Xiaoxing saw Cao Liang coming back and said with a smile, "You're back! Are you hungry? I'll make you some noodles."

"No, I'm not hungry. Besides, you're pregnant now. If mom knew, she would definitely blame me."

Cao Liang shook his head quickly.

Dabao is already ten years old, but Cao Liang has always refused to have a second child.

Cao Liang ignored the family members’ urging many times.

In the end, it was Meng Xiaoxing who spoke up and Cao Liang agreed.

I estimate that in another month, Dabao’s younger brother or sister will be born.

"It's not as serious as you say. Never mind. It's time to get ready for dinner. I'll go help mom."

...

At dinner time.

Cao Liang and Dabao kept picking up food for Meng Xiaoxing, and Meng Xiaoxing always had a smile on her face.

But Chen Huilan always had a gloomy face.

He glared at his second son and youngest daughter from time to time.

Two people produce acupuncture.

Yaya said depressedly: "Mom, can you please stop glaring at us? The food doesn't taste good anymore."

"You think I do?"

Chen Huilan pointed at Yaya and cursed, "Look at you, you're already 23 years old and you still haven't found a partner. What, do you want to live alone for the rest of your life?"

puff~

Cao Xiaoming couldn't help laughing out loud.

Chen Huilan exploded immediately, "What are you laughing at? I haven't said anything about you yet, have I? You are already 28 years old and still single. Do you want to learn from the silly Zhu in the middle school?"

Cao Xiaoming shrank his neck and ate quietly without saying a word.

Yaya, however, was not afraid because she had her elder brother and sister-in-law around. She pouted and said, "It's not that I don't want to find someone, I just want to find someone who knows how to care for others like my elder brother does."

Meng Xiaoxing joked, "It may be difficult for you, Yaya. You can't find a brother like yours even if you search the entire city. I was lucky to meet him."

Hearing this, Yaya said disdainfully: "Sister-in-law, please stop talking. I'm almost full if you keep talking."

Dabao was puzzled and asked, "Aunt, you haven't eaten much yet, how come you are full?"

"You go eat."

Yaya glared at Dabao fiercely.

Hahaha!

The whole family laughed.
