[Rebirth] King of Theater

Chapter 14 Al: Money is optional, but I don't want to lose you!

Al and Luke recruited a few more later, all the unsupervised kids from the ghetto who roamed the streets all day.

But to Luke's delight, Al clearly values ​​himself more than these newly recruited kids.

When he brought Luke into the business, he paid and worked hard, and he took pains to explain all the links of the whole thing clearly.

But for these children, at the beginning, Al didn't seem to have the patience to explain them one by one. Instead, his attitude was more inclined to an employment relationship. He paid a few cents a day as a salary, and occasionally he performed particularly well. A dollar or two will be rewarded.

But for children in the slums, this level of treatment is enough.

Except for a few rebels, most children cherish this opportunity very much.

As for the "betrayal" that Luke was worried about at the beginning, he obviously thought too much.

This is like the part-time employees in the company. Even after working for many years, they have already understood clearly how the boss operates and makes money, but there may not be one out of ten who wants to start their own business.

What's more, most of the children in the slums have no education and their brains are not so flexible.

Compared to relying on the less intelligent to do it alone after betrayal, they are more accustomed to obeying orders, so as to obtain a stable income from drought and flood.

After a while, the "new employees" gradually entered the right track, and after being familiar with the model of reselling theater tickets...

Al then calculated that it was time to move on to the next step.

He needs some money!

This amount of money may not be that much, but it must be able to buy a large number of theater tickets in a short period of time, creating a false "they have monopolized the market" money.

As a result, loan shark Ben Foreman ushered in his little client again.

After a few months, Al finally got a little fatter, and there was some flesh on his face. His facial features, which were once skinny and almost invisible, gradually returned to their normal state.Although due to her young age and lack of growth, she can't see anything for the time being, only a somewhat delicate outline can be vaguely seen. It will probably take a few years for a complete change to take place.

However, this does not mean that he is now mediocre and unremarkable.

In fact, no matter who it is, his eyes can leave an incomparably deep impression on people just by looking at them, because those eyes are dark green, and when the night is dark, the transparent glass carries the pain. Aijiu is as mysterious as absinthe, so when he looks at someone seriously, his rapt gaze is very contagious, as if it has the same psychedelic and exciting qualities as absinthe.

Therefore, when Mrs. Foreman saw him, she couldn't help holding his little hand, and what she said sounded a bit exaggerated, but it might have been sincere: "Oh my God, come quickly!" Look at the child, it's so beautiful, I almost don't recognize it."

Al couldn't help showing a surprised expression.

He obviously never paid much attention to the changes in himself, and he still regarded himself as that ugly and thin street beggar.

"It's Little Al!" At this time, Mr. Foreman also came out when he heard his wife's voice.

He didn't look like a creditor at all, and he looked cheerful as if he saw a relative's child coming to visit, and welcomed him happily: "You came by coincidence, I happen to have fruit candies and small cakes here. "

Under the extremely warm hospitality of the two couples, Al was at a loss.

After about ten minutes, he struggled to turn the topic back to the main topic, first repaid the previous 100 yuan loan with interest, and then raised the matter of investment.

Mr. Foreman was again startled by the child.

His mouth was wide open, and he asked after a while: "Do you want to borrow 5000 yuan this time?"

"It's not borrowing, but I want to ask you to invest." Al tried to explain seriously with a straight face.

He knew that 5000 yuan was not a small amount of money for Ben Foreman, a patient from his previous life, but it was actually not a huge amount of money that he couldn't afford.But he can't rely on the other party's good intentions to make random requests, so he has made sufficient preparations, such as a ledger that clearly records all recent transactions, a business plan, and a detailed market research form... …

At this time, most people borrow money based on their own reputation (that's why they attach great importance to integrity).

It was the first time for Mr. Foreman to come into contact with such a formal model, and he was a little confused for a while.

But despite this, people are still instinctively wary of unfamiliar areas.

Even after Al revealed his plan in full and explained in detail what the 5000 yuan was mainly used for, Mr. Foreman still hesitantly flipped through the stack of neatly handwritten papers, expressing apology: " Al, I believe you! But this...sorry, I need to think about it."

This time Mrs Foreman did not interrupt.

This is not a business of tens or hundreds. After all, 5000 yuan is not a small amount.

Al wasn't disappointed either.

On the contrary, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Of course, this is what it should be. To be honest, Mr. Foreman, your kindness to me is too great, too great. The life of our family depends on you at the beginning. I survived with a loan of 100 yuan. You don’t owe me anything for this incident alone, but I should be grateful to you for the rest of my life!”

"As for this time, it's because I don't know what's good and what's wrong. A poor boy in a slum, who is dishonestly living in poverty and living a peaceful life with his family, wants to have some crazy idea of ​​making a lot of money, relying on your kindness If you really feel sorry for me, or if you just promise to give me the money because I am still a child, then I will be too ashamed. Even if I get the money, I will have a bad conscience .”

Mr. Foreman was overwhelmed.

He used to lend money to so many people, although most of them would thank him, but occasionally they would come across people who thought he didn't borrow enough money, or would be full of swear words because he didn't borrow money, and vice versa. The white-eyed wolf who accused him of hypocrisy.

For this reason, he is often troubled.

God knows, he is really a very kind and kind man!

The reason why I don't lend money to those people is mostly because those people have bad conduct, or bad gamblers, or good liars, or lazy people who are idle and do not do their jobs...

However, some outsiders could not see the good deeds he had done, but only stared at his "mistake of not lending money", and decided that he was a fake charity.

This has been said a lot, and it inevitably affected him a little bit. He thought for a moment in confusion: "Could it be that I did something wrong? Otherwise, why would they hate me so much?"

Until now!

Al's words spoke directly to his heart, which made him feel comfortable, without any burden.

Sure enough, those who spoke ill of him were ignorant bastards.

A decent person worth dealing with should be as grateful as Al is.

For this reason, he was full of tenderness, and even had an inexplicable thought of "this child is so caring and gentle! Even if my wife and I give birth another day, I'm afraid it won't be better than him".

At this time, Al said again: "I just want to ask you one thing now."

Mr. Foreman was emotionally agitated. After hearing this, he almost agreed directly. Fortunately, his sanity did not drop completely: "Say it."

Al said sincerely: "Even if you think the risk is too high and you don't want to invest in me after thinking about it, please don't feel awkward about it, or just annoy me. I'll bring a small gift over for the new year and holidays." When I visit you, if you and your wife shut me out because of this matter, then I will really break my heart. Money is very important, but I really don't want to lose my best benefactor because of money. The best friend, and the most respectable elder, that's not worth it."

Ah!

By God!

Listen, what a boy!

What a child!

Mrs. Foreman couldn't help looking at her husband several times.

Although he didn't really say anything out loud, that expression probably said everything.

However, this is far from the end.

The child pursed his lips, the tips of his ears were slightly red, hesitating for a few seconds, he looked very embarrassed, but he held on, his green eyes shone with anticipation, and said the next words full of sincerity: "If you are magnanimous, you are really not angry with me, and you are willing to agree to the presumptuous request I just made. Then, for the sake of me being a child, please don't be too cold, just give me a hug, My benefactor, my elder, my friend!"

Fatal blow!

Mr. Foreman shuddered.

Then, immediately, with tears in his eyes, he pounced on him, opened his arms, and hugged the small, painful child tightly in his arms.

----------

When Al comes back with a check for 5000 yuan...

Luke is probably the same as his grandma, he no longer treats him as a human being, and just wants to confess him as a god.

"What do you think, Luke? Let's have a big fight?"

"I can see it."

"Then have you learned what I taught you before? Can you handle it?"

"No problem at all! If I'm clumsy and accidentally do something wrong that hinders you, you can let Lei Gong kill me!"

The author has something to say:

Forgot to say, this article is all characters single arrow Al.If some readers don't like Al's character at the beginning, they can basically click the cross, because the more they read, the more incomprehensible and troubled they will be about "why all the characters love him".

PS. Don’t worry, this is the last few chapters mainly about scalpers.

PS. Al didn't catch Mr. Foreman's sheep for wool, but because he was sure to lead the other party to make money. Besides, he could only believe that borrowing money from Mr. Foreman would not be cheated.

Finally, Jinjiang Literature and the author wish dear readers and friends: have a safe and happy Spring Festival holiday!At the same time, we warmly remind everyone to wash hands frequently, wear masks, ventilate more, and gather less.
