The weather is getting colder day by day, and winter has officially entered in a blink of an eye. More and more people are killing pigs, and Zheng Bajin receives more and more hams, but the salt has not dropped.
During this period, someone wanted to help him acquire it. However, he refused.
There is no shortage of radical figures at any time. Shili Village was no exception, but Zheng Bajin couldn't believe them. He had seen too many examples in his previous life.
Taking money from others to help him do business, it was okay at first, but then after making money, he started to drift around, using other people's capital to spend money and alcohol, and the result, as you can imagine, was harming others and himself.
On this day, Zheng Bajin discovered a young man in the fields outside the village.
He looks pretty and pleasant, but his hands are covered with calluses, which are incompatible with his face.
"Little brother, you don't seem to be from this village, why are you here?" Zheng Bajin suddenly became interested in him. When he saw him in the field, collecting firewood for barbecue, he didn't look like an ordinary wanderer, so he asked curiously. He asked, smoked a cigarette and handed it over.
"Thank you, I don't know how to smoke!" The man's politeness made Zheng Bajin stunned for a moment.
In Shili Village, there are very few people who can go to junior high school, and even fewer people are so polite.
"I am from Daqing Mountain." The man continued.
"Why are you here?" You know, Daqing Mountain is an alpine mountainous area, located on the other side of the mountain. Fifty miles away from Shili Village, you can't even grow corn. You can only grow some potatoes and buckwheat.
It is said that conditions there are difficult and many people want to marry in Shili Village...
The other party looked a little sad: "I just graduated from junior high school this year. Unexpectedly, something happened in my family. My father passed away suddenly. My brother and sister-in-law couldn't tolerate me. I came here to join my sister, but..."
At this point, he suddenly stopped talking, as if he couldn't bear to look back on the past.
Zheng Bajin understood a little bit. His sister must not regard him as a brother, otherwise, he wouldn't be so sad.
"Then, whose brother are you...?" Zheng Bajin didn't know how to ask.
"Her name is Zhang Xiao'e!"
Zheng Bajin: "..."
It turns out it's her, and it's human nature not to treat you as a brother. You just came out of school and haven't been involved in the matter yet. What can you do to help her?
"Then what are your plans now?" Zheng Bajin still asked curiously. As a young person, being able to support yourself is the way out.
"Well, I plan to warm up the fire first, and then think of other ways to see if there is anyone in this village who is willing to find a job?"
"That's right. If you want to work, you should go to the city. There are not many people in this village who can afford to hire small laborers." Zheng Bajin said with a half-smile.
"I've never been to the city, so I don't know what to do?" the other party said with a sigh.
"Then tell me, what will you do?"
"I used to be able to do laundry, cooking, and fetching water to feed the pigs at home! Otherwise, brother, I will follow you and just give you some wages for the day." The young man seemed to have suddenly found a savior, looking forward to it. He looked at Zheng Bajin.
"Okay, let's do this. You follow me first and pick the ham. If you can endure hardships and stand hard work, the world will not treat you badly." Zheng Bajin agreed. It was not that he sympathized with this person, but that he felt that this person seemed Still has some backbone.
The other party said happily: "Thank you, brother. By the way, my name is Zhang Xiaoyang. What's your surname, brother?"
"My surname is Zheng, my given name is Bajin!" Zheng Bajin's eyes couldn't help but light up when he heard the three words Zhang Xiaoyang. He suppressed the ecstasy in his heart and said calmly.
In the previous life, I had heard of this person.
It is said that if you can't survive at home, you go out to work.
Who would have thought that if you work hard and do things as you see fit, you would often see something that doesn't please you on the construction site and just do it all.
The contractor's boss took a fancy to him and heard that he was from the countryside and could endure hardships and stand hard work, so he asked him to take charge of the work and called people from his hometown to help.
He turned out to be very organized, leading dozens of brothers from his hometown to earn hundreds of thousands a year.
I have the ability, but it’s a pity that I have a long face.
The boss's wife actually fell in love with him.
He vowed to die and would not do anything to disgrace his boss.
The boss was so kind to him and showed him kindness.
However, how could the rich and powerful landlady let go of a man like him who was pretty and had some skills? She would try every means to let him come to her house in the name of the boss when he was not at home. Change light bulbs, repair water heaters, etc.
He also put medicine in his cup. He couldn't help it, and his brain didn't control his cerebellum.
Afterwards, he was very sad, as if he was the one who suffered the loss. More importantly, he felt sorry for his boss and killed himself directly.
The boss didn't know about it and thought it was a homicide. He was so sad that he lost his right assistant and reported it to the police in anger.
Finally, when the case was solved, it caused a sensation.
Major newspapers and periodicals made headlines, and the headlines were even more eye-catching. They were all shocking! The cause of Zhang Xiaoyang’s death is revealed, it turned out to be a murder of love!
The boss was also dumbfounded by this result.
To prevent thieves and thefts, it didn't even protect the person next to me.
There was a fire in his backyard. Naturally, he couldn't bear the blow. In anger, he sent his wife to the guillotine.
This time, it was even more shocking.
At that time, Zheng Bajin also saw this news and sympathized very much with this person named Zhang Xiaoyang. He also specially held an education and study session on work ethics and work style for employees, warning everyone that men must control their legs and female employees must control their legs. Shut up...
Rabbits are not allowed to eat grass near the nest! Once verified, they will all be fired without leaving any future trouble!
"Brother Zheng, what's wrong with you?" Zheng Bajing, who was a little lost and immersed in the memory of his past life, was brought back to reality by Zhang Xiaoyang.
I couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and secretly exclaimed: I can't believe it, I really can't believe that in this life, I, Zheng Bajin, was the one who changed his life and fate and saved Zhang Xiaoyang.
He said hurriedly: "Nothing? I was just thinking, brother, you are so pitiful and helpless. As long as you are willing, I will be your big brother from now on."
Zhang Xiaoyang naturally wanted what he wanted, and said happily: "It's great that I don't dislike you, big brother. From now on, you will be my big brother. As long as you say a word, brothers will never back down."
"Don't worry, you follow me, as long as you work hard, my brother will take you to delicious food and drink." Zheng Bajin smiled and led him to another village.
Now that he has sold part of the salt and coal, he has capital and can start working freely.
The village's business is far from meeting his needs and must expand outward.
Fortunately, now that I have money, this business is easy to do no matter where I go. According to the price of one yuan per pound, soon, the two of them only visited three or four houses and received eight hams. Each of them picked up four hams and went home. .
Zheng Bajin discovered that this young man was really hard-working, which was incompatible with his handsome face.
And Zhang Xiaoyang was also very clever. He only saw Zheng Bajin's operation once and he had a good idea.
However, he was a little confused and asked softly: "Why not put some effort on the scale? Wouldn't that make more money?"
As Zheng Bajin walked, he glanced at him and said softly: "Brother, we are people who are doing big things. We can't just think about this small profit and end up ruining our reputation. Besides, it's not easy for these ordinary people to grind their hands." It’s better not to cheat them out of their money, otherwise, you will feel guilty in the future!”
After hearing this, Zhang Xiaoyang looked ashamed and said, "Brother, I am too small. I must correct this bad idea."
Unexpectedly, Zheng Bajin was different from the unkind people mentioned in books. He was quite conscientious.
After hearing what he said, Zheng Bajin nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "From now on, I will let you go and let you do whatever you want!"
Zhang Xiaoyang: "???"
