Reborn to Strive

Shi Zhen was neither angry nor surprised when he learned that Qian Qi had stolen the money.

He used to worry about getting money and starting his own business directly. In comparison, stealing some money is really nothing.

He raised money to help set up stalls, which has inherent problems in supervision.

Most people in the world are ordinary people, and it is easy to make mistakes without supervision.

Therefore, those who run small businesses and open small shops are generally husband and wife, otherwise it is easy to have financial problems.

When it comes to making money, most of the time, he sets up a stall in the town alone. He sells the things on the stall and collects the money.

At the beginning, he was able to avoid corruption. After a long time, with so much money in front of him, it is not surprising that he is tempted to take it.

Although Qian Qiqi called him master, he actually didn't teach Qian Qiqi anything. Later, the two became more and more busy, not to mention him, even Qian Qiqi didn't think about practicing martial arts anymore.

The young boy left his martial arts dream, and now he has become daily necessities for running around.

Shi Zhen asked Guan Baiyu to show him the account book.

The cooked food stall still earns 30 to [-] yuan a day, even if the cost is taken into account. Shi Zhen asked Guan Baiyu, "He used the money collected to buy some food, right?"

Guan Baiyu nodded, there was a lot of food in the town, and when he got money, he directly took the money he collected to buy food.

Shi Zhen smiled: "I plan to offer this stall to him."

Money is not a bad person, but people...

At the beginning, when the money was raised, he set up a stall for him, and if the family wanted meat, they bought it from him at the price, but after a long time, he would inevitably feel that it didn’t matter if he took some food or money from the stall.

"Brother, are you going to give him the stall? He looks like this..." Guan Baiyu had a problem with Qian Qiqi, his brother brought Qian Qiqi out, and he was so kind to Qian Qiqi, yet Qian Qiqi even betrayed his brother!

"It's all fair trade." Shi Zhendao, Qianqi also helped him, and Qianqi helped him look after the stall a few months ago, and also made him a lot of money.

Guan Baiyu was still a little unhappy, Shi Zhen comforted him when he saw this: "Don't worry, I can do other business in the future."

He has no unique skills, in fact, the food stall is destined not to last long.

The situation that "those who engage in atomic bombs are not as good as those who sell tea eggs" did exist in certain periods and places.

But there are too many people in this country, and everyone still wants to live a good life. Therefore, when any profitable business comes out, countless people will flock to it, and then divide the profits thinly.

Even if there is a tea egg seller who makes a lot of money in a certain period of time, his business will definitely be taken away by other tea egg sellers soon.

Haven't you seen some high-end products in later generations, such as self-balancing vehicles, since they started to be produced in China, have they become cheaper immediately?

Of course, if a small business owner is down-to-earth and willing to work hard, in this day and age, it is not a problem to earn more than ordinary wage earners.

If they bought a house early, their future life would be completely rewritten.

In this world, there are people like his sister who only think about spending money, and there are also people who enjoy saving money and like to buy a house after saving money.

He has seen some people who set up stalls or open shops to buy houses after making money, and bought several houses one after another when the house prices were not high... Before he died, the house prices in better neighborhoods in Changxi City were all over [-]. These people One can imagine how much money he has.

However, if these people do not expand their business, such as making it into a chain, then after more than 20 years, the competition will increase, and they will no longer be able to earn too much.

This is not the path Shi Zhen wants to take.

The two were talking, and the money arrived on a bicycle when they got up.

There was nothing unusual about Qian Qiqi's words and deeds. When he saw Shi Zhen, he still talked about his master.

There was nothing unusual on Shi Zhen's face. He made preparations and went to the town with Qian Qiqi.

After the stall was set up, and it was the busiest time in the morning, Shi Zhen got up and said to Qian, "Get up, I have something to discuss with you, it's about the cooked food stall."

Qian Qi was a little anxious when he heard the words, and looked at Shi Zhen uneasily.

He knew that Shi Zhen's family was here, and Shi Zhen suddenly told him this, did he want to let his family take care of the cooked food stall... Then what will he do in the future?

"Master, tell me." Qian got up and said.

Shi Zhendao: "It's like this. I probably won't set up a stall in the future. I will make fried skewers and rice ball stalls for my parents. If you want to continue to make this deli stall, you can take it down. When the time comes I'll tell you everything about the recipe, this stall is yours too, if you don't want to continue making it, then make it for my sister."

"I want to keep doing it!" Qian Qiqi said immediately.

"You also know that I was the one who ran out to cook all kinds of food at the cooked food stall, how to buy them... If you want to buy this stall, give me [-]." Shi Zhen offered the price.

Qian got up and worked with Shi Zhen for a few months, and made a lot of money, but he usually had to spend, and the money in his hand was not even six hundred, so he was a little hesitant.

Shi Zhen said again: "Didn't you always call me Master? Now that you take down the stall, it's equivalent to learning a craft from me, and I'll pay you as well."

Qian Qi was a little hesitant at first, but when he heard what Shi Zhen said, he felt that it was nothing to spend 600 yuan to sell the stall.

The salary that Shi Zhen paid him in the past few months was more than six hundred!

And people in their village go to work as apprentices for others, but they don't pay them wages.

And in the future... Although he has to do more preparations, it will be a little tiring and troublesome, but he can ask his family members for help, can't he?

Even if he doesn't have enough money...he can borrow some money from his family.

The way of thinking about money now is different from before.

Seeing that he agreed, Shi Zhen was also very happy.

The preparation work required for cold salad is cumbersome and tiring. If he doesn't do this business, although he will earn less, he can relax a lot.

After handing over the fried skewers to his parents, he can completely free up his hands to do other things.

When Shi Zhen went to the town to set up a stall, Guan Baiyu took Shi Xinghuo to find Shi Zhen's parents.

When he passed by, he also brought some rice balls - the Shi family should like these.

Shi Xinghuo was very happy to learn that his uncle had come to Anshan Town, and talked a lot along the way.

Seeing this, Guan Baiyu chatted with him more, wanting to know how much he knew about Shi Zhen's business...and found that he hadn't paid much attention to Shi Zhen's business at all, and didn't know how much Shi Zhen made every day. Just relax.

It was seven o'clock in the morning when they arrived at the Shi family, and the Shi family hadn't woken up yet.

Guan Baiyu knocked on the door, and Zhao Meiyun opened the door, looking very tired.

"Auntie, I'm sorry, we're early."

"It's okay, I've woken up a long time ago, but I was a little tired from the journey and didn't want to get up." Zhao Meiyun said hastily.

"I'm very tired from traveling. Auntie, if you sleep in the afternoon, you should be able to recover." Guan Baiyu put the rice balls he brought on the table, "Auntie, my brother asked me to bring you breakfast. You can eat it while it's hot." eat."

"Hey! Why do you still buy us food? It costs a lot of money?" Zhao Meiyun was very embarrassed.

"This is something my brother sells at a stall, and it doesn't cost much." Guan Baiyu saw that the room was a bit messy, so he helped Zhao Meiyun tidy it up, put some straw into the coal stove to light it up, and then put in a few pieces of wood, Finally, put a briquette on it to ignite.

Zhao Meiyun was ashamed to ask Guan Baiyu to work, but there were some jobs... To be honest, she didn't know how to do them at all.

She stood by for a moment in embarrassment, then went upstairs to tell her daughters to go.

Shi Dalin also came out at this time, he greeted Guan Baiyu, then went to talk to Shi Xinghuo, and then took the biggest rice ball Guan Baiyu gave and ate it.

This rice ball is made of rice with lard and soy sauce, with a lot of ingredients in it, Shi Dalin bit into it, and was a little surprised.

This thing suits his appetite too much!

Shi Dalin ate very quickly, and when he was almost finished, Zhao Meiyun came down from upstairs with her three daughters.

Shi Dalin immediately pointed to the rice ball and said to Zhao Meiyun, "Eat it quickly, this is delicious."

Zhao Meiyun smiled at Guan Baiyu, took a rice ball to eat, and showed surprise after taking two bites.

Shi Ting started eating without being asked, chirping: "Wow, there are ham sausages in it! Hey, what is this?"

Guan Baiyu said: "This is fried dough sticks."

"Our fritters are not like this." Shi Ting said.

"It's made by continuing to fry the deep-fried dough sticks in the oil pan," Guan Baiyu said.

"The fritters are crispy and delicious!" Shi Ting's eyes narrowed.

Guan Baiyu smiled, seeing that the briquettes had been ignited, he filled the kettle with water and put it on top to boil water.

Shi Ting looked at the coal stove curiously again.

Someone in their school used a coal stove, but it was the first time she saw it up close.

Seeing this, Guan Baiyu told them how to use the coal stove, which the Shi family must learn.

Both Zhao Meiyun and Zhao Qiujuan listened carefully, but they couldn't understand some parts, so Zhao Qiujuan could only ask questions in her poor Mandarin.

Zhao Qiujuan has only read books for two years.

When Zhao Meiyun was kicked out of the house by her own father, she was in the second grade.

Her own father was not willing to pay her a tuition fee of only a few dollars, and when her mother was kicked out, it was even more impossible to pay her any more.

Of course she dropped out of school.

Half a year later, she remarried with her mother. Shi Dalin asked her if she wanted to continue studying, but her mother was too embarrassed to use Shi Dalin's money and wanted her to help with the work, so she stopped studying.

It was her younger sister who went to study with Shi Zhen.

But reading is not a fun thing. The primary school does not live on campus, and it takes a long time to walk back and forth on the mountain road every day. Her younger sister doesn't want to go, so she always finds reasons to be lazy. When she reaches the fourth grade of primary school, she simply doesn't sign up.

Shi Ting is an exception. Although her grades are not very good, she doesn't like to stay in the village, so she is happy to go to school with her children and never asks for leave unless there are special circumstances...

However, Zhao Qiujuan felt that she was so interested in reading, besides being able to play with others, there was another point that she could eat better when she went to study.

Zhao Meiyun prepares meals for Shi Ting to take to school, and always chooses some good ones for her, so as not to embarrass her at school.

Zhao Qiujuan also heard that Shi Zhen threatened Shi Ting, saying that if she didn't go to school, she wouldn't make new clothes for her, and asked her to wear her sisters' old clothes every day...

Shi Ting was obviously very afraid of this threat.

The raw coal stove needs to be practiced. After Guan Baiyu talked about it, he began to help with other tasks.

Seeing him like this, the Shi family had a better impression of him and started talking to him.

The big guys were chatting and packing up, and when it was almost done, Shi Zhen came pushing the stall.

Seeing the stall in Shi Zhen's hand, Shi Dalin hurriedly asked, "Did you go to set up the stall this morning?"

"En." Shi Zhen responded, and said, "Dad, I'll get up before four o'clock, and I'll sleep for a while... If you want to ask anything, you can ask Xiaoyu, or let Xiaoyu take you out for a stroll.

It was too hot, Shi Zhen was already covered in sweat after setting up a stall in the morning.

Although the courtyard of this house is small, there is a well inside. Shi Zhen came to the well, fetched water to wash himself and cool himself down, then put on a clean vest and shorts, and lay down on Shi Dalin's bed.

This bed is a bamboo bed, and there is no need for bedding in summer anyway, so there is no taboo.

Seeing that Shi Zhen fell asleep, everyone stopped talking for a while, and then Shi Ting asked: "Brother Bai Yu, how did my brother live the past few months?"

Guan Baiyu immediately said: "Brother, he had a very hard time a while ago."

Guan Baiyu always felt that Shi Zhen was working hard, but when Shi Zhen's family asked about it, he subconsciously... just added embellishments.

"I don't know much about my brother, but he said that when he first came here, he lived in the bridge hole. You all know how the bridge hole is. It was cold at that time, and the bridge hole was surrounded by wind, which almost made him freeze sick."

"Later, they rented a house, and they didn't have any bedding, so they could only lay a little more straw on the bed, and wrapped their clothes tightly to sleep."

"It's really hard to set up a stall. He wakes up before dawn every day and can't sleep until very late. Sometimes he starts to doze off if he doesn't pay attention during the day."

……

The more Guan Baiyu talked, the more he felt distressed, and if he could touch his emotions, he would naturally be able to touch others.

Shi Ting was in tears.

Shi Dalin and Zhao Meiyun also felt that Shi Zhen's life was too hard, luckily they came!

That's why Zhao Dongjuan was a little unhappy: "Then he called us here to let us follow him from dawn to dusk?"

Guan Baiyu made a note of Zhao Dongjuan in his heart without hesitation.

Shi Zhen woke up from a nap and was eating lunch.

Guan Baiyu cooked lunch with a gas stove.

Zhao Meiyun was very apprehensive, she felt that guests, especially men, should not be allowed to cook, but she doesn't know how to use a gas stove, so that's the only way to go.

It's too hot in summer, so there aren't as many vegetables in the fields as before, but now in Anshan Town, the vegetables that everyone eats the most are undoubtedly cowpeas and eggplants.

Guan Baiyu fried a large plate of eggplants, another large plate of cowpeas, chopped a duck and braised it in soy sauce, and added the marinated eggs and dried tofu, the meal was very rich.

After dinner, Shi Zhen took his family to buy clothes.

Guan Kai's mother is called Li Ahui, and everyone calls her "Ahui".

She likes to be pretty, has a good eye, and the styles of clothes she buys are very good. The shop just opened above the vegetable market, and the business is very good.

Because she got a divorce and found a man ten years younger, and some people even came here admiringly, and after being told by her, they bought clothes from her shop.

Before Shi Zhen went to pick up his parents, he specifically went to her and asked her to bring in some clothes suitable for his family, and now he came directly to get them.

He doesn't want to bargain with others, it's the easiest way to buy clothes.

Before Li Ahhui opened the store, she found the source of goods. Her clothes were all purchased from the provincial capital. Not only were they beautiful, but they were also cheap.

There is a big market over there, which has all kinds of clothes. Although she sells women's clothes only suitable for young girls, according to what Shi Zhen said, she bought all the clothes for the Shi family.

Shi Zhen knew that Shi Dalin and Zhao Meiyun had just come here and couldn't accept clothes that were too trendy, so he chose common styles for them, three sets each.

As for the three sisters, he also prepared three sets of clothes for them, including one dress, two T-shirts, one pair of shorts, and one pair of trousers.

This is also a style that does not go wrong, and it looks ordinary.

But these are new clothes after all, and they look much better than their previous clothes!

Shi Ting and Zhao Qiujuan took their clothes and couldn't put them down.

Shi Zhen said to Shi Ting again: "Tingting, I promised you to buy you a dress before, you can choose another one here."

Shi Ting jumped up on the spot to pick out clothes, while Li Ahui gave her advice.

Shi Ting has never seen the market before, so she doesn't know how to choose, she just likes bright colors.

But she is a little dark now, and it would be a disaster if she wore it.

In the end, Li Ahui chose a dress with a white top and a black bottom. The upper body of this dress is in the style of a short-sleeved shirt, which looks a bit like a school uniform. After wearing it, she looks youthful and beautiful.

"She has more than us, it's not fair." Zhao Dongjuan was dissatisfied.

Shi Zhen has been annoyed by Zhao Dongjuan for a long time these days, now that he pays for clothes, Zhao Dongjuan is still not satisfied, he finally said: "She is my own sister, don't say it's just one more set, even if it's ten more sets, It has nothing to do with you."

Zhao Dongjuan's expression changed, and she looked at Shi Zhen angrily.

Zhao Meiyun and Zhao Qiujuan were also taken aback and rushed to pull Zhao Dongjuan.

They don't understand, these days are getting better every day, and Shi Zhen wants to take them to live in such a good place... Dongjuan, why is she unhappy, why is she making trouble?

For the sake of the rest of the family, Shi Zhen didn't say much.

In her previous life, Zhao Dongjuan didn't do anything particularly excessive, but it was annoying enough.

He had drawn a clear line with this person in his previous life, and in this life...he will never talk to him again.

There was a little conflict when buying clothes, but the atmosphere became better after that.

That night, Shi Dalin and Zhao Meiyun followed Shi Zhen to set up a fried skewer stall.

Shi Ting also went with her. She wanted to have a look around the town, and also...she went, so she could eat a few fried skewers, right?

Shi Ting did eat fried skewers, and Shi Zhen asked Guan Baiyu to show her around and buy her some other food.

After all, in two days, she will not have such a good life.

When Shi Zhen was selling fried skewers, Shi Dalin and Zhao Meiyun stood beside them, and they both studied very seriously.

In fact, the technical content of fried skewers is not high. For them, the biggest problem is that they cannot understand the words of the customers.

Fortunately, they have heard a lot, and they will definitely know what the things they sell are called. In addition, they sell fried skewers, and they basically collect money first before cooking, so it is not easy to make mistakes.

Shi Zhen believed that they could definitely do it.

When they learn it, the two of them can set up a stall for a whole day, and they will definitely make more money than he just set up a stall at night.

Shi Zhen continued to work until ten o'clock in the evening before going back with Guan Baiyu.

On the way back, Shi Zhen told Guan Baiyu that he wanted to pay for the cooked food stall.

Knowing that he was willing to spend [-] yuan to buy a cooked food stall, Guan Baiyu didn't think it would be a bad thing to sell the stall.

Without this stall, Shi Zhen can relax a lot... Now that they are not short of money, Shi Zhen doesn't need to be so busy.

Thinking of this, Guan Baiyu said again: "Brother, those knives, chopping boards, etc., can't be given to him for nothing...you can let him buy them!"

When Shi Zhen heard Guan Baiyu's words, he immediately laughed: "Okay."

"Ask for the original price!"

"Ah."
