Thinking of this put Wang Xiaohei in a difficult position. Now not only is he impoverished, but even the entire family cannot afford two thousand yuan.
What's the use of pretending to be full of knowledge? Although there are many ways to achieve uniforms in front of him, it is simply a dream to achieve a career with nothing.
At any time, economic fundamentals are the key factor.
Wang Xiaohei thought about it over and over again. When he finally saw a persimmon tree full of fruits behind the house, his eyes lit up.
"Yes, I can sell pickled persimmons." Wang Xiaohei suddenly had an idea.
Just do what he said, Wang Xiaohei brought a ladder, and then climbed up the tree along the ladder with the bamboo pole on his back.
Soon, Wang Xiaohei picked some persimmons.
After returning home, Wang Xiaohei washed the persimmons with ancient well water, and then soaked them according to the method in his memory.
It happened that Wang Dadian was going home to drink water and saw Wang Xiaohei picking persimmons, so he asked curiously: "Xiaohei, what are you doing picking so many persimmons? These persimmons are not ripe yet."
"Grandpa, you are back, I want to eat pickled persimmons." Wang Xiaohei responded with a smile.
"Okay, these persimmons are reserved for you to raise money for your tuition. Xiaohei, why did you pick so many of them at once? And you can't even eat them. Didn't you leave enough food for you?" Wang Dadian He said with obvious distress.
Wang Xiaohei hurriedly waved his hand and said: "No, Grandpa, I have eaten enough. I just want to make some persimmons to eat. I will treat these persimmons as if you sold them to me, and I will give you the money."
"Xiao Hei, I'm not asking you for money. If you want to eat, just let us know. You don't have to pick so many unripe persimmons at once. Besides, do you know how to soak persimmons?" Wang Dadian was a little angry. looked at Wang Xiaohei and asked.
In the minds of Wang Dadian and Yue Xiuli, Wang Xiaohei couldn't even cook rice, and couldn't even light a fire in a wood stove, so how could he possibly soak persimmons.
In order to prevent Wang Dadian from seeing the flaw, Wang Xiaohei could only lie that his teacher accidentally taught him how to soak persimmons when he was in school, so he wanted to come back and give it a try.
A week later, Wang Xiaohei took out all the persimmons he had soaked.
"Old Master, do you smell something like this?" Yue Xiuli put down the hoe in her hand and stood there, asking with some confusion.
"That's right, what is this fragrant thing about?" Wang Dadian also looked around.
Just when the two were confused, Wang Xiaohei brought the soaked persimmons in front of them.
"Grandpa and grandma, please sit down and have a rest. Eat a pickled persimmon first." Wang Xiaohei said.
After Wang Dadian and Yue Xiuli each received a persimmon, Yue Xiuli was the first to speak: "Which category of persimmons are you soaking? Xiao Hei, is this the persimmon you soaked?"
"Yes, grandma, eat it quickly. Is it delicious?" Wang Xiaohei responded with a smile.
Yue Xiuli took a bite with some worry.
"Which one is delicious? It's much more delicious than the persimmons we brewed in previous years."
"Really?" Wang Dadian looked at Yue Xiuli in disbelief.
Then, Wang Dadian couldn't wait to take a bite.
"The melon is indeed delicious, Xiaohei, where did you learn how to persimmon?" Wang Dadian asked.
"Grandpa, didn't I tell you everything? These were taught by the teacher." Wang Xiaohei explained.
"Xiao Hei, your task now is to study well and don't do other things." Wang Dadian said seriously.
"Oh." Wang Xiaohei replied somewhat unhappily.
After lunch, Wang Xiaohei took these persimmons and walked towards school early.
The school where Wang Xiaohei studies is in a rural town, and it takes about three hours to walk. At this time, Wang Xiaohei had already started living on campus, so he could only go home after school every Friday afternoon, and would go to school every Sunday afternoon.
The reason why Wang Xiaohei went to school early was because he wanted to take all these persimmons to the market to sell.
He carried the persimmons to the market entrance, and then carefully placed the persimmons out. Because I was rushing to the market today, there were many people on the street at this time.
After Wang Xiaohei quickly made preparations, he cleared his throat and shouted loudly: "Uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters, I promise you will not regret eating these sweet and crisp pickled persimmons. The quantity is limited, first come first served." "
"Two cents each, don't miss the opportunity when you pass by. You can't buy it with two cents and you won't suffer a loss or be cheated, but you can buy my delicious persimmons. Everyone come and take a look."
When Wang Xiaohei sees different people, he uses different selling techniques.
Along with Wang Xiaohei's deafening shouting, some people came in front of him. But everyone just looked at it, and no one was willing to buy it. Some people even said, "If this kid doesn't go to school, how can he come here to sell pickled persimmons?"
Wang Xiaohei has long turned a deaf ear to these.
Time passed by, and just when Wang Xiaohei was a little anxious, he suddenly saw a beautiful woman wearing rush velvet walking slowly, her leather shoes making a "clunking" sound on the stone road. It's crisp.
I saw that this person was dressed more fashionably, and he looked like he was relatively wealthy.
Wang Xiaohei immediately shouted: "We are selling persimmons. Big and crispy soaked persimmons. Men will gain strength after eating them, women will get in good shape after eating them, and couples will grow old together after eating them."
"Young man, what you are saying is a bit mysterious, isn't it? Isn't this just a soaked persimmon? And it has this effect? I don't believe it." A middle-aged man said with a smile.
"It's true. I don't believe it either. Don't be fooled."
…
"Everyone, don't believe me, my persimmon is no ordinary persimmon. Not only does it have the effects just mentioned, it can also beautify the skin and replenish qi and blood." Wang Xiaohei said with a smile.
"Young man, aren't you just an ordinary persimmon?" the fashionably dressed woman just happened to be passing by, so she joked.
"Sister, that's because you didn't eat my persimmon. This is no ordinary persimmon. It comes from high mountains, is full of nutrients, and uses an exclusive formula for soaking. It is guaranteed to be different from the persimmons you have eaten before. , as long as you eat my persimmon, I guarantee that you will be eighteen years old again." Wang Xiaohei said.
Wang Xiaohei used some modern sales pitches to make this woman happy in just a few words.
"Does your persimmon really have this effect?"
