Trivial Skin of Rebirth

Ye Jiawen went out with Xiang Qingtian carrying a big bag on his back, and came to the edge of People's Square, unfolded the bag, arranged things, and began to wait for people to patronize.Ye Jiawen hasn't come out to set up a stall for a while, and this time he brought out some sundries that he hadn't sold before, including bamboo dragonflies, T-shirts, parasols, fluorescent sticks left over from the concert, and three catties of strips. Good corn seeds were bought by Ye Jiawen from the vegetable market two days ago, at seventy cents a catty.

Xiang Qingtian fiddled with the corn seeds while stunned: "Why are these things sold here? Shouldn't they be sold in the vegetable market if they are not cooked?"

Ye Jiawen smiled and said, "You don't understand that." He took out a lot of small plastic bags the size of a palm from his bag, and distributed a dozen to Xiang Qingtian, "Use this to put corn seeds in a bag, don't If it’s too full, it’s almost enough, and we sell it in bags for [-] cents a bag.”

Xiang Qingtian fiddled with the small bag in disbelief: "This stuff sells for fifty cents? We only sell it for four or fifty cents a catty!"

"Well," Ye Jiawen nodded, "We have seven or eighty cents a catty." He pointed to the pigeons on the lawn not far away and said, "See that one, the peace pigeons, raised by the government, fly here Fly away, many people come to feed them every day. If the pigeons want to eat corn seeds, they will come to buy them, and they can sell them for fifty cents a bag.”

Xiang Qingyun packed the corn seeds in doubt.He filled the bag too much at the beginning, and almost broke the bag, so Ye Jiawen took him back and dumped it: "Don't be so full, you can hold three bags in these two bags. The one who buys corn is Feed the pigeons to try something new, don’t feed them if you’re tired, if you pack too much, they’ll throw it away.”

After the two of them filled more than twenty bags, Ye Jiawen stopped him from filling them: "Sell them first, and then fill them when they are sold out."

Because it was the weekend, and the weather was fine and the sun was bright, there were many people in People's Square, most of whom were parents with their children out for an outing, so there were many children who bought corn to feed pigeons, but there were also many people who sold corn , so their business is neither good nor bad.

It didn't take long for them to get oily from the sun.

Xiang Qingtian wiped off his sweat: "Brother Ye, this is the only business you're doing with my brother? When you go to a big city and finish college, that's all you do?"

Ye Jiawen said: "No, I used to work in the company just like your brother. So what if I went to college? These days, college students in cities are worthless. Eight out of ten are college students. , When you enter the company, you still have to look at the face of the boss, if you meet the boss who is an idiot, you are not smarter than him, and if you are excluded, you can only follow his stupid..."

This remark resonated with Xiang Qingtian, and he slapped his thigh: "That's right! Bosses are idiots! Damn, if you don't do anything every day, you know how to pee on people's heads! I won't do it before I come!" Said He also spat on the ground.Xiang Qingtian works as a copyist in a small company in the county seat. He has nothing to do. He uses a typewriter to type and read newspapers every day. His monthly salary is 800 yuan.Liu Sha thought he was worthless every day, so he resigned in a fit of anger, and planned to go to S City to make a lot of money.

Ye Jiawen snorted secretly, the boss is a fool, do you think you are not?Come on!There is still a smile on the face: "I really can't make a lot of money, 2000 yuan a month, look at it, it's a few hundred if I call it a few times, I don't like being idle, so I quit, come out and do it myself Do it, set up a stall to sell things, as long as you work hard, you can still make a little money. Setting up a stall during the day and going to buy some supper with Qingyun at night is hard work, but you can earn a few hundred dollars a month."

At this time, another seven or eight-year-old girl came to buy corn, holding five yuan in her hand, Ye Jiawen hurriedly picked up a bamboo dragonfly and said, "Buy a bamboo dragonfly, buy it together with the corn, I will give you the cheapest." , only three yuan~~" After speaking, he rubbed the stick, and the bamboo dragonfly flew into the sky.The little girl liked it, and she really bought bamboo dragonflies and corn.

Xiang Qingtian was very disgusted: "It's just one or two yuan, this is also called business!"

Ye Jiawen raised his sleeves and wiped his sweat: "There's no way, earning money is so hard, won't your brother tell you? He also works really hard. He goes to work during the day and goes out to sell supper at night. He can't even afford a house. You say it's just a rural area. If you want a wife in there, you have to have a house! You have already given birth to a son, and your brother doesn’t even have a wife.”

Xiang Qingtian looked away and did not speak.

After a while, Xiang Qingtian got bored, so he planned to go out for a walk by himself.He said to Ye Jiawen: "Brother Ye, give me some money, I'll go shopping."

Ye Jiawen squinted at him: "You didn't bring any money?"

Xiang Qingtian sneered: "I forgot to bring it."

Ye Jiawen took out five yuan from his pocket and handed it to him.Xiang Qingtian was obviously not very happy, and looked at the five yuan with disgust, Ye Jiawen deliberately ignored his face: Damn, people in their twenties are going to be fathers, and there is no shame in asking people for money ?

Said to Qingtian: "Brother Ye, give me more."

Ye Jiawen took out a messy handful of change tickets from his pocket: "That's all, I just collected them. What are you buying, five yuan is not enough? Don't wander around, be careful not to get lost!"

Xiang Qingtian had no choice but to roll his eyes, took the five yuan and left.He went shopping for almost an hour before returning. When he came back, he held a popsicle in his left hand and two grilled sausages in his right.Ye Jiawen thought that at least one sausage was bought for himself, but Xiang Qingtian ate both sausages after eating the popsicles, and Ye Jiawen didn't expect that at all.

After a while, Ye Jiawen went to the toilet, and when he came back, he saw an old man with a child standing in front of the booth talking to Xiang Qingtian, Xiang Qingtian looked lazy and indifferent, but the old and the young Left without buying anything.Ye Jiawen was angry and funny, pretended not to see it, and said nothing when he came back.

Xiang Qingtian fiddled with the corn seeds and asked, "Don't you do anything else? How much money can you make!"

Ye Jiawen said leisurely: "Actually, your brother and I don't just do this. This thing has a small cost and a big profit, but it's hard work, and the business is not good. In fact, we also do fertilizer business, which makes money, but the risk is high."

"Oh?" Xiang Qingtian regained some energy.

"A while ago, I bought a batch of chemical fertilizers for 3 yuan and sold them for [-] yuan."

"Fifteen thousand! You've earned so much!" Xiang Qingtian's eyes immediately widened.

Ye Jiawen said: "But doing business requires costs. I don't know where your brother has hidden his money all these years. I can see that he is quite economical and has saved a lot of money. His monthly salary is more than 2000, excluding food and drink. Sarah, how can I save four to five hundred yuan a month? I partnered with him, and he took out 2000 yuan, saying that there was only so much. I don’t know if he was stingy and refused to take it out. I don’t have that much money. , I went to borrow [-] from usury, with a monthly interest of [-]."

"Ah? Five thousand a month's interest?!" Xiang Qingtian exclaimed.

Ye Jiawen took out a four-yuan soft red plum from his pocket, took one out and handed it to him, and took out one himself, and said while lighting the fire, "That's how the market is, otherwise it's called usury. We want to earn this If you don’t have any money, you will get a piece of their pie.”

Xiang Qingtian took a puff of cigarette: "Then you also earned [-] yuan."

Ye Jiawen smiled wryly: "What are you earning? That's why I said that doing business is risky. The person who received the goods has not given me the money since they took the goods. I don't know where they are. After a while, I plan to go to his hometown to find someone. Your brother and I owe usury money now, and if we add another month, it will cost us [-] more interest, and it’s almost two months now, if we drag it on, we won’t be able to earn a penny, and we will lose interest money!”

Shout out to Qingtian.

Ye Jiawen flicked the cigarette ash, wiped off the oil on his forehead, and said deeply: "This thing can still make money, the main reason is that we don't have enough capital now." Turning to Qingtian. "Do you want to join the gang? You are brother Xiang Qingyun, and we will make a fortune together in the future!"

His eyes wandered towards the blue sky, hesitating and saying nothing.

Ye Jiawen said: "It's very easy for you to join the gang. Can you take out [-] yuan for emergency? As long as I can repay the usury and stop them from continuing to make interest, I will let go of my heart now. By now When I get the money, I'll share three thousand interest with you! How about it, don't lose money!"

Xiang Qingtian smiled dryly: "Brother Ye, how can I have so much money!"

Ye Jiawen took another two puffs of low-priced and low-quality cigarettes, and sighed sadly: "How good is this! Brother, let me tell you the truth, can you find a way to borrow this money? Help me out, I'm really in a hurry now, those loan sharks People are not easy to get along with! I’m your boss, if you can help me advance the 3 yuan first, then I will share with your brother... [-] yuan for you? As soon as I get the payment, I will pay you back immediately !"

Xiang Qingtian was frightened by him, and hurriedly said: "Brother Ye! I really don't have that much money, 3 yuan, how can I have so much! I have never seen so much money in my life!"

Ye Jiawen sighed: "I won't force you, think about it carefully, go back and discuss it with your siblings, your brother and I are in difficulties now, as long as we overcome this difficulty, we can make a fortune with you in the future!" And hugged him affectionately on the shoulder.I sneered in my heart: How did you send the borrowed money?Just ask him to borrow money before he asks you to borrow money!

Xiang Qingtian had no choice but to perfunctory: "I'll go back and discuss it with Liu Sha, but we really don't have so much money!"

Squatting in People's Square for an afternoon, I sold two catties of corn seeds and a few parasols, earning a total of more than forty yuan.Xiang Qingtian and Ye Jiawen carried another big bag back.For dinner, Xiang Qingyun was the host, invited a group of people to eat in the restaurant, and ate some home-cooked food for about [-] yuan. It was done for nothing in the afternoon, and he paid dozens of yuan.

At night, Ye Jiawen and Xiang Qingyun were going to sell Mala Tang again, Ye Jiawen secretly asked Xiang Qingtian if he wanted to go and see, but Xiang Qingtian repeatedly refused, saying that Liu Sha was not feeling well and wanted to stay and take care of him, so he didn't follow.It turned out that the business was very good that night, and they could earn almost 200 yuan. Ye Jiawen and Xiang Qingyun happily closed the stall and went back.

The next day Liu Sha sent Xiang Qingtian to find Xiang Qingyun, and asked about the usury owed on the sidelines, but she didn't say that Ye Jiawen asked them to borrow money, for fear that Xiang Qingyun would come to borrow money if he thought they had money.Xiang Qingyun was very surprised, and admitted it more euphemistically, but he is a person who has the blessings and enjoys the hardships of himself. In turn, he comforted Xiang Qingtian, saying that it is all right, and he will definitely be able to pay back, but it will be difficult for a while to let them Don't worry about him.

Afterwards, Xiang Qingyun found Ye Jiawen and asked him why he told his younger siblings about it. Ye Jiawen said innocently: "Your brother said that he wanted to do business with us, and asked me what to do to get money quickly, so I just passed this matter on." I told him. In fact, I just wanted to tell him that doing business is quite risky, and this is just an example.”

At night, Xiang Qingyun pestered Ye Jiawen to make out, but Ye Jiawen refused.In his previous life, he was beaten twice by Xiang Qingyun's father. Once he was forced to come out of the closet, which brought endless troubles in the future. The second time he became impotent, which left a great trauma in his heart, so in this life, he can't say anything. no!It seems that Xiang Qingyun's father is right outside the door, thinking of this, the slightest bit of sex is gone.

Xiang Qingyun was extremely helpless: "My parents are not here, they won't come at such a late hour, can't you touch it twice?"

Ye Jiawen said firmly: "No! Don't even think about it! Don't even mention it!"

Xiang Qingyun had no choice but to go to the toilet to solve the problem.

Two days later, at around five o'clock in the afternoon, Ye Jiawen came back from the stall and saw a taxi passing by at a corner. With his good eyesight, he saw at a glance that the people sitting in the car were Xiang Qingtian and Liu Sha. The direction is to where they live.Ye Jiawen still remembers such a thing happened at this time in his previous life. Xiang Qingtian took his wife to Pudong for a stroll, and when they came back, they called a taxi. The fare cost nearly a hundred, so they went downstairs to ask Xiang Qingyun to pay for the car. money.Ye Jiawen felt angry when he thought of this, and he slowed down his pace of going home, thinking that he might see that annoying pair of guys when he went back, and he didn't even want to go home.

Before taking two steps, Xiang Qingyun's voice suddenly came from behind, and Xiang Qingyun ran over with his bag: "Jiawen, you just came back?" He said and took the burden from Ye Jiawen's body.

Ye Jiawen was stunned: "You just got off work?"

Xiang Qingyun said: "Yes, let's go home together."

Ye Jiawen was overjoyed: That means there is no one at home now!He hurriedly said to Qingyun: "It's just right to meet you, let's not go back, let's go, you accompany me to Xia Xiaoxin's place, I want to give this bag to him. Malatang's car is still in his place !" After finishing speaking, he asked him falsely, "Is your parents coming tonight? Do you have anything to do tonight? If nothing else, let's have dinner with Xiaoxin. After eating, go to the stall!"

Xiang Qingyun said: "My parents are in the hotel today, and they didn't say they want to come. But you don't want to go back and put something?"

Ye Jiawen looked at the briefcase in his hand: "I don't have anything to put. You just have a few things, you want to go back?"

Xiang Qingyun thought for a while and said, "Forget it, let's go directly."
