Home of Rebirth

Because of Xia Yue's coquettish obsession, Meng Huaiyuan finally gave up the idea of ​​going to the car wash, and started playing with them every day again. Basically, in the morning, Chen Ze and Chen Hui were lying on the bed pitifully with their homework. In the courtyard of Xia's family, Xia Yue was asked to help with homework. In the afternoon, the four of them went back to the martyrs' cemetery to pick cherries.

Xia Yue looked at these small cherries, which were bigger than soybeans, and put one in his mouth. It was quite sweet, but he knew that no one would eat these small cherries in the future. In the future, big cherries from the south would dominate the market.

It’s always like this. If there is a good one, no one will want the old one. The city is the same. In the next 20 years, the city will develop rapidly. a world.

Because in today's city, people are still in a place where they are satisfied with food and clothing.

At this time, when Xia Yue was frothing with worry about earning money, something big happened near his home.

It turns out that the Anhe River is the city's moat, and its source is in Anqiao District. It is not too close or far from Xia Yue's house. It takes more than 40 minutes to walk. There is a factory at the source of the Anhe River. For shampoo, at that time most of the factories in the city were still state-owned. For example, the place where Xia Laosan worked was a good state-owned job, but that factory was owned by an individual after a few years, and then it couldn’t work anymore. Moreover, he was unwilling to go bankrupt, so he continued to hold on to his last breath.

But this factory is personal, and the boss is from the south. It not only produces shampoo, but also soap, washing powder, and cream on weekdays. It supplies the entire city, ranging from Wanxing shopping mall to small grocery stores. People are willing to buy things, and they are local.

It may be because of the hot weather or something. The factory suddenly caught fire. These chemical products were willing to catch fire. Now the whole factory was burned. The fire was going to the sky, and there were not enough fire trucks. In the end, the army transferred a platoon to put out the fire.

The fire took away the lives of two people. After the incident, Xia Yue desperately recalled it. He vaguely remembered that there was a fire near his home when he was a child, but he couldn't remember clearly.

Chen Ze was the liveliest, he took this event as a show, and insisted on grabbing them to watch the scene together.

But they couldn't enter the scene, and by the time they could enter, everything was over, the crowd had already dispersed, and black ash was still floating in the air.

The black ash has been floating in Anqiao District for three days, and this fire has become the talk of people in Anqiao District throughout the summer vacation.

When Xia Yue entered the factory yard covering his mouth and nose, he saw the southern boss squatting on the ground and making a phone call. The big brother in his hand was a symbol of the rich in this era. He was still rich yesterday, but he Today, he has lost everything, and there are two lawsuits involving the lives of two people.

Xia Yue couldn't say anything, and he didn't have the position to comfort anyone. He could come in, but he saw a few big boxes in the yard outside, and there were some leftover shampoos in them. There were bottles and bags. There are also some scattered soaps.

"uncle……"

Xia Yue called out.

The man seemed to have just finished talking on the phone. He lowered his hands and looked up at him. His face was covered with sweat mixed with black dust in the air.

"Uncle, do you still sell these shampoos?" Xia Yue asked.

The man didn't say a word, he just reached out and picked out two bottles of shampoo that hadn't been burned by the fire, stuffed them into his arms, and said, "I don't need money anymore, just take it home."

"No, no, uncle, I mean if you don't sell these, can you sell them to me at a lower price?" Xia Yue put two bottles of shampoo in the box and said to him seriously.

But the man was in a hurry, and rushed out to yell at him: "Don't make trouble here, kid, I'm so annoyed to death now, hurry up!!!"

"I really want to buy it. Are you going to sell it or not?"

Xia Yue refused to leave, and in the end, to show that he was rich, he took out two 50 yuan bills from his pocket, which made the man's face slightly calm, and asked, "Did your lord ask you to come?"

"..." Xia Yue thought for a while, and could only nod his head: "Uncle, my family wants all these boxes from you, how much do you sell them for?"

The man glanced at the shampoo in the box. Although some of the bottles were not leaking, the plastic bottles had been burned and distorted. Such a big accident happened in his factory, and two people were burned to death. Waiting for a claim, the money he has earned in the past few years may not be enough. Originally thinking that the things here are over, he will go back to his hometown in the south and stop working here. He didn't want it at first, but now he sees someone wanting to buy it, and he is very impatient.

"Sell it for the money, don't you have a hundred, give it all to me, and you will move it all away"

Meng Huaiyuan borrowed these two 50 yuan bills, and Meng Huaiyuan really loved him. He had worked so hard for several days to earn money, and he would come whenever he wanted it.

Originally, he wanted to negotiate the price, but Xia Yue looked up at this man's disheveled face, and thought about it but didn't say anything.

When he went home, he called Meng Huaiyuan, Chen Ze, and Chen Hui, and the uncle who was in charge of buying vegetables at Qiaotou borrowed a donkey (note), paid the money with one hand and delivered the goods with the other, and moved all five or six large boxes to Meng Huaiyuan. The front room where Huaiyuan lived.

Because if he moved things to his own house, his mother would definitely have to ask, but Meng Huaiyuan was different, no one would know when the front door was closed, so Cheng Likui and Li Hongxia couldn't think of going to his nephew's room to take a look.

That night, Xia Yue was still staying in Meng Huaiyuan's place, and the two of them wiped the dirty plastic bottles with wet towels.

Meng Huaiyuan didn't know what he was going to do at first, but it was Xia Yue who explained to him that these shampoos were bought cheaply, and after they were cleaned, they would be resold at the night market tomorrow.
