innocent year

"Awake?"

Xu Minghai tilted his head in a daze, and saw Qiu Shi was looking at him while holding the chair beside the bed.Take a closer look, the wall clock on the wall is already close to 4:[-].Xu Minghai shook his head, he had been asleep for almost three hours.

"Thirsty?" Qiu Shi opened the mosquito net and poked his head in.

Xu Minghai nodded, then wiped the sweat off his forehead with his hand, and sat up slowly propped up on the bed.I didn't want to do half of the movement, and the whole person suddenly got stuck.He quickly crossed his legs in a difficult pose that would later be called "yoga".

Qiu Shi was immediately taken aback by this weird shape.

"what happened?"

"nothing."

Xu Minghai said he was fine, but in his heart he complained endlessly.At this moment, the cold and sticky feeling in the crotch is like crawling into a snake.There is really no reason for such an effect from a nap in the afternoon.

And the weird and meaningless conversation between the two continued.

"What's the matter?"

"It's really nothing!"

Although Xu Minghai can tell Qiushi the knowledge of physiology and hygiene in a fresh way, he is not thick-skinned enough to use himself as a teaching material.

Seeing Xu Minghai's uncharacteristic appearance, Qiushi felt guilty, so he stretched out his hand to touch his thigh.

"It's okay, why are you twisting like a twist?!"

"Fuck!" Xu Minghai suddenly pointed out the window and shouted, "Flying saucer!"

Taking advantage of Qiushi turning his head, Xu Minghai jumped off the bed immediately.Immediately, he showed the miraculous skill of Lingbo Weibu, ran all the way back to his hut and locked the door behind him.

He didn't care about the chasing soldiers outside who kept banging on the door and knocking on the glass, and quickly closed the curtains.Then Xu Minghai pulled off his trousers and looked down, tsk tsk, the fighting situation was brutal.

Now that he can't go to the yard to wash his underwear, he has to stuff the things under the mattress first.Then I changed everything that should be changed, looked around and felt that there was no problem before letting the person in.

"What are you doing?!" Qiu Shi was so anxious that he was sweating.He thought that Xu Minghai had really discovered something and planned to break up with him.

"I..." Xu Minghai was quick to wit, "I saved a fart just now! I didn't dare to let it in your room for fear of spoiling you, so I ran back to my room and let it go!"

But Qiushi clearly saw that the other party had changed into a pair of sweatpants.

"Take off your pants and fart?"

"..."

Xu Minghai thought to himself, why is this child so sharp?Fortunately, the physical evidence has been hidden, otherwise he would have to hold it in his hand and examine it carefully.

"Okay, little ancestor." Xu Minghai sighed for a long time, then turned Qiu Shi who was suspicious, and walked out in his arms, "Don't be so young that you always look like a little foot detective team." Is it alright? If things go on like this, are you going to compete with Aunt Qian for a job, or go to the police station and find Uncle Xiaoqier on the night shift?"

Qiu Shi was full of panic, and never dared to do anything wrong again.And when he finally understood what kind of embarrassment Xu Minghai experienced in that blue afternoon, it was already a few years later.

The days when you don't have to go to class to endorse always pass quickly.

Classmate Heng Ye was once a student and second time acquaintance, and he almost took the big courtyard as his home.He would come to Qiu Shi from time to time, in the name of learning and making progress together, but in fact he was looking for someone to eat snacks with, listen to popular songs, read comics, and chat and copy homework.

After getting along with each other slowly, Qiushi found that Hengye was a nice and smart person, and his poor study was purely due to laziness.On the other hand, Xu Minghai and Heng Ye got along very well in some aspects, and they often denounced the school and teachers in unison, thinking that those seemingly advanced knowledge would be useless in future life.In this way, Heng Ye inexplicably became a member of the courtyard, and the three of them often got together to play around.

Since Xu Minghai will be promoted to the third year of junior high school again, he will definitely not have as much free time as the second year of junior high school.So he took Qiu Shi and Heng Ye to many places during the vacation.

They went to the Summer Palace, where they ate snacks and rowed boats on Kunming Lake, which was covered with gold; , They specially ran to Prince Gong's Mansion, and listened to various unofficial histories of the corrupt official He Shen in the back garden.They also went to Houhai, Guozijian, Lama Temple, etc., and it can be said that every minute was spent wonderfully.

Occasionally they also go to the game arcade to play video games.At that time, "Street Fighter", as a fighting game, became popular all over the city as soon as it came out, attracting countless elementary and middle school birthdays.

As for the matter of fighting with virtual figurines on the electronic screen, Xu Minghai has always maintained a mocking attitude, thinking that it is just a child's addiction, and it is not exciting at all.

Heng Ye refused to accept it, and insisted on pulling Xu Minghai to PK

As a result, Qiu Shi witnessed the whole process of Heng Ye's 360-degree KO of Xu Minghai from the beginning, to being brutally abused by Xu Minghai.Finally, Heng Ye hugged Qiu Shi and cried bitterly, saying, your brother bullied me with my coins, he is not human.

Once, the classic proposition composition "Helping others is fun" appeared in the Chinese summer homework book. Qiu Shi said that he almost vomited and helped the old lady cross the road.Xu Minghai had an idea and said, let's go and help our godfather, it's a good thing and a good person, and by the way, we can get addicted to selling goods.

This proposal was strongly supported by Heng Ye. He said that his childhood dream was to be a salesperson, and he felt that he had a special face.

The three hit it off immediately, and took a car directly from the entrance of the alley to Longfu Building.

Speaking of the boundary where the building is located, as early as the Ming and Qing Dynasties, it was a prosperous Fengshui treasure in the capital.Today, it is a comprehensive commercial building of more than 1 square meters—it is one of the four major shopping malls in Beijing together with Wangfujing Department Store, Xidan Shopping Center and Dong'an Market.

There was little business on Monday, and Chen Lei was not busy in the store alone.Seeing a few children suddenly parachuting over and eager to help, he complied with the market economy and promised to give them a "commission" as long as the goods were sold.

The stimulation of money made Xu Minghai immediately lose his original intention of "learning from Lei Feng to do good deeds" to Java.He rolled up his arms and sleeves, rushed to the door and started yelling loudly.Seeing this, Heng Ye was unwilling to stay behind others, so he followed suit and howled, making passers-by cover their ears.

Qiushi got tired after following along for a while, so he just sat aside and watched them shouting about Hong Kong products and American products one after another, don't miss them when you pass by.

It's a pity that after shouting for a long time, none of the customers came.In the end, Chen Lei ran on and said, Xiao Hai, don't you always brag about yourself to your godfather and respond to everyone, are you Xiao Ma in Xicheng District?Why is there no show when it comes to the festival?

Now, Heng Ye also had doubts about Xu Minghai.He said, brother, what's the matter with you?Don't you claim that apart from studying, you have nothing to do?

Even Qiu Shi, who has always supported Xu Minghai unconditionally, said, why don't we help the old lady cross the road?

After learning from the painful experience, Xu Minghai carefully analyzed his current disadvantages, his own advantages, external opportunities and threats, etc., and then showed an extremely impressive talent in business.

Without further ado, he directly changed into a T-shirt with graffiti and English letters printed on it in Chen Lei's shop, as well as a pair of water-polish blue high-waisted flared trousers, and Heng Ye's sunglasses.Then it started to swing from the street to the end of the street, swaggering through the city like a peacock.

Since no one paid any attention to him at the first time, Xu Minghai arranged for Heng Ye and Qiu Shi to be "children".Let the two of them follow behind their buttocks, and kept asking loudly anxiously: "Brother, you are an overseas student! These clothes are so cool! Brother, where did you buy these jeans? They are very expensive!"

After a long time, I actually fooled a few young people who blindly follow the trend and catch up with fashion trends.In the end, Chen Lei paid them a commission of 10 yuan as promised, and drove them away with a smile.

That day, they used the "commission" of "helping others" to eat the most expensive one at that time. Legend has it that it was "Baxi" from San Francisco.Qiushi will always remember the wonderful taste of the ice cream wrapped in crispy biscuit crumbs, so that he likes to eat this brand of ice cream even after he grew up.

From then on, Xu Minghai seemed to be passionate about selling clothes, and he dragged Qiu Shi and Heng Ye to find Chen Lei when he had nothing to do.Although he is not good at mathematics, but he has a very quick mind when calculating accounts, as if he has a calculator in his mouth.

When the summer vacation was coming to an end, Chen Lei no longer felt that he was too idle to make trouble.He began to teach Xu Minghai seriously what knitting, woven, denim, and wool are, and told him that satin, sequins, patent leather and other reflective materials are the most popular in the market now.In addition, Chen Lei also explained to Xu Minghai the ebb and flow relationship among price, sales volume and profit in a very easy-to-understand manner.

And when Chen Lei was going to take the exam, he would not design various calculation questions and application questions like a teacher, but directly acted as customers of all ages and put forward various requirements.

Qiu Shi has seen Xu Minghai in class and doing homework, and it can be said that those who see it are sad, and those who hear it cry.But he didn't expect that when he encountered the knowledge he was interested in, he would suddenly become a study committee member and actor. He would draw inferences from one example and often get praise.

On the other hand, Qiu Shi and Heng Ye could only sit next to each other and act as mascots throughout the whole process, applauding their acting skills.

As for the question raised by Xu Minghai, whether selling clothes can make a lot of money.Chen Lei said with a smile that there are too many factors that affect success, and both the right time, the right place and the right people are indispensable.But from his personal experience, at least the next 20 years will definitely be the booming 20 years of China's garment industry.

Twenty years later, when Qiushi was walking in the World Trade Center, Oriental Plaza, Blue Harbor and other places, he still clearly remembered the firm tone of Chen Lei when he said this, and the look of Xu Minghai hanging on.And Heng Ye—he had already fallen asleep with his mouth open while leaning on the pile of clothes.

Qiu Shi still remembers that the sky in Beijing was particularly blue in those years.The cars on the Second Ring Road can still run unimpeded; there are only a handful of luxury hotels and high-end office buildings; no matter how popular the parks and scenic spots are, there is no need to queue up, but the Longfu Building is full of people every weekend.
