Chapter 169 Extra - The Richest Man

The capital is more inclusive than Jiangcheng in the central part of China.

In the 1980s, there were many small vendors on the streets, and the urban management turned a blind eye.

"If you want to start a small business, you can come to the capital and try. We have a courtyard house, so you don't need to rent another house."

Xu Yao said to Xu Gang.

The courtyard is not far from her school, just seven or eight bus stops away.

She simply packed up her house when school started and stayed there for two nights. But when she heard from her neighbors that their house had been robbed, she didn't dare stay there again.

If Xu Gang did business in the capital, it would be a good opportunity for her, and she could move back home from the dormitory.

Of course he would rather do business than earning a salary of just over 20 years a month.

In the past, the money he earned in one day was equivalent to his monthly salary!

When I heard Xu Yao say that the policies in the capital were relaxed, I wished I could grow wings and fly there immediately.

Liu Mei was not as optimistic as they were and spoke worriedly.

"You forgot that Zhang Saner and his five brothers are still in jail.

I don't ask you to be rich and powerful, just live in peace and safety. ”

Xu Gang and Xu Yao looked at each other.

The former winked, and Xu Yao spoke.

"Mom, in the capital, if you get caught, you'll just be fined, not even detained.

But now I am doing business and I am one of the first people to try it out. The profits are huge and I think it is worth taking the risk.

Mom, my brother has gone to the capital. I’m worried about you staying in Jiangcheng alone, so you should go with him when the time comes. The job can be given to Yoko.

I don't live in school but at home. You can keep an eye on us when the time comes. If the situation doesn't go well, we won't do it anymore. ”

Liu Mei was somewhat tempted.

It was okay that Xu Yao was studying in another city, but she was really worried about them going into business.

If I go too, not only can the family reunite, but I can also keep an eye on them and cook for them.

Let’s decide on the business for now. As for whether to set up a stall or open breakfast, we’ll decide when we get there.

On the twenty-ninth.

Xu Yao helped Ji's mother with cooking. Xu Jiaan, who had grown a lot taller, was at Uncle Da's house, playing with Ji Chen and others.

There was a sudden noise outside.

Fang Yinzhang held his youngest son and called him Xu Yao, and Xu Yao subconsciously went next door to find He Yin.

Just as I turned a corner, I suddenly remembered that Deng Dawen was fired from the furniture factory, divorced He Yin and returned to his hometown.

Now He Yin has also returned to her parents' home.

"Are you missing He Yin?" Fang Yinzhang glanced at Xu Yao with a smile.

"She doesn't have time to think about you right now. She's probably hosting Han Gaoyi with her family."

"Han Gaoyi? Are they together?" Xu Yao was surprised.

"That's right. He followed me all the way from the county to the city, insisting on being Xiaoxu's stepfather. Xiaoxu also likes him. He Yin..."

Fang Yinzhang smiled mysteriously, "He said he wanted to observe him carefully, for fear that he would give up halfway.

The two families set a date and the wedding took place on the eighth day of the first lunar month. You are their matchmaker, and I was going to send you a letter.

Considering that you will be coming back for the New Year, they plan to come and pick you up for a drink in person. ”

"That's more like it. I thought she had forgotten me."

Xu Yao smiled and said that she would have to talk to Ji Changyu later and ask him not to reveal the fact that Han Gaoyi had pursued her.

Otherwise, it would cause trouble for He Yin.

"Xiao Xu, the old couple outside said that they are your uncle and aunt, go and take a look.

Do you want me to call Hengzi for you? ”

An old lady came back from outside carrying a plate of dumplings and said to Xu Yao.

The old couple looked like they were in dire straits, and it was possible that they were here to extort money.

She was afraid that Xu Yao, a weak woman, could not withstand their unreasonable demands.

"No, he's already here."

Just as Xu Yao was about to speak, she saw Ji Changyu, who had heard the noise, striding over.

He took Xu Yao's hand and they walked out side by side.

At the bottom of the steps at the door stood two elderly men with haggard faces and hunched backs.

They seemed afraid to see people and kept their heads down and staring at their toes.

Only after Xu Yao called out twice did they come to their senses and stare at her eagerly.

The hand that reached out to pull Xu Yao's clothes was stopped by Ji Changyu.

They had no choice but to put down their hands in embarrassment.

"Yaoyao, I'm your second uncle. I heard that you passed the exam and went to the capital. Have you seen Xiangxiang?"

"What's wrong with her?" Xu Yao asked calmly.

“We borrowed money from relatives and friends to raise money for her to go to the capital to meet her classmates.

'When she got there, she said she was having a hard time and hadn't found her feet, so we sent her money again.

Those people wanted to pay back the money, so we went to look for her again. She said that she didn’t get into college and her classmate’s uncle also fell from power.

How could he, a high-ranking official, fall just like that? If you meet her, tell her to pay the money back immediately, otherwise we will go to Kyoto to find her! ”

Xu Xiangbei said angrily.

Xu Yao looked strange, "Is her classmate's uncle surnamed Liang?"

"Do you know him?" Sun Yanfang nodded fiercely, looking at Xu Yao eagerly, "He has the same surname as my uncle, Liang Yuming!"

Xu Yao smiled slowly.

"I was wondering why I was tricked at the beginning of the school year. It turns out that Xianglan was the one who was playing a trick on me."

Xu Xiangbei, "Then you should tell us her whereabouts, and we will deal with her!"

"Although I really want to see her get into trouble, I really don't know where she is." Xu Yao replied truthfully.

Sun Yanfang and Xu Xiangbei got their address from Xu Qiang and finally found them.

They were naturally unwilling to return empty-handed, but when Ji Changyu told them to get out, they did not dare to stay any longer and left in shame.

No one took Xu Lanxiang seriously. On New Year's Eve, the whole family went to the cinema to watch the movie directed by Ji Yanyu.

She played the tragic second female lead in the revolutionary romance film, had a lot of scenes, and her acting was very natural.

The moment she died, many people in the cinema cried.

Ji Yanyu also cried and used the back of Xu Jiaan's hand to wipe her tears.

"Sister-in-law, my performance was so touching that I cried to death."

Xu Yao, "..."

After leaving the cinema, Ji's mother wiped the tears from her eyes and listened to the discussion around her about Ji Yanyu's role.

A proud smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "I didn't expect that you are not good at studying, but you have some talent in acting."

Ji Yanyu clenched his fist.

hateful!

She is not good at studying! !

It's just a little bit inferior to the monsters at home!

On the eighth day of the first lunar month, Ji Changyu and Xu Yao attended the wedding of He Yin and Han Gaoyi.

As soon as the ninth day of the first lunar month arrived, the two of them became busy.

Xu Gang passed the work to Qian Shengyang, and the family went to the capital.

Liu Mei is a good cook and she set up a stall in front of the courtyard to sell breakfast.

At first, Liu Mei was very nervous, fearing that someone would overturn their business.

After realizing that no one cared, my greatest pleasure every day was counting money.

Who could have imagined at the beginning that a stall with mediocre business could earn one or two hundred yuan a day.

When Xu Yao was a junior, Ji Changyu was finally transferred to the capital and lived in a courtyard house.

"Brother, do you dare to do something big?"

Xu Gang was shocked and asked, "Going to Yangcheng?"

He had long noticed that some of the brave neighbors around him would disappear for a while from time to time.

When he came back, he had permed hair, wore a floral shirt and bell-bottom pants, and drove a car, looking very luxurious.

He invited his close friends to have a drink and learned that they had gone to Guangzhou to make a fortune, and he had been eager to make some moves.

Just when I was worrying about how to convince Liu Mei, Xu Yao brought it up first.

Xu Yao smiled and nodded.

"We go to Yangcheng to buy goods and bring them back to our hometown to sell. There are more and more small vendors in our hometown, and the people have money in their hands.

Didn’t Yoko say that the textile factory owed wages? I might as well quit my job and go to Guangzhou with you. You two can take care of each other. ”

Xu Gang nodded with shining eyes. He didn't want to do it alone, but planned to get his friends in the capital to join him.

Compared with the friends he met later, he trusted Qian Shengyang, with whom he grew up, more.

Qian Shengyang encountered some obstacles.

Cheng Aizhen was pregnant with her second child and felt that the textile factory’s difficulties were only temporary and would soon get better.

I was afraid that he would lose both his wife and his army.

"Now that Xiaobao is born, there will be one more mouth to feed in the family. My salary is so low, and I can't bear to let you three suffer.

Aunt Liu Mei’s cooking skills aren’t particularly good, but if she sets up a stall there, she can make as much in one day as we do in a year. That’s easy money, right?

Sister Yao is the president of the student union of a prestigious university. She only went to junior high school. If anyone sees her and doesn’t give her a thumbs up, her decisions are always right!

Besides, Brother Gangzi is with me, and they are all smart people. I won’t suffer any loss if I follow smart people. ”

He covered all aspects, so Cheng Aizhen had fewer concerns and decided to let him give it a try.

As it turned out, her decision was not wrong.

Xu Gang and Qian Shengyang made 12,000 yuan just by trading goods when they came back from Yangcheng.

They made little effort to sell them; the goods were sold out as soon as they arrived.

Qian Shengyang invested a small proportion of the money, so even if he only earned 20%, he still made 2,400 yuan.

They invested all the money they earned into purchasing goods and then brought them back to sell.

The money kept rolling like a snowball.

When I counted the accounts at the end of the year, I found that I had earned more than 800,000 yuan.

In an era when a person with a net worth of 10,000 yuan is something to brag about, you can imagine how shocking it is to have more than 800,000 yuan.

Xu Yao and Ji Changyu had seen the world and were very calm, while Liu Mei and Xu Gang were very excited.

After calming down a little, Xu Gang said.

"It's hard work for us to run around like this, and we don't earn the most. I want to buy a clothing factory and do production myself.

I know quite a few bosses in Guangzhou. As long as the clothes look nice, they will sell well even if the quality is a little bit worse.

It's just that I have no experience in managing a factory, and I'm afraid that my subordinates will fool me and mess up the factory. ”

Looking at his expression, Xu Yao knew that he had made his decision and just needed some support from his family.

So I encouraged him, "If you want to do it, just go for it! I have some connections, and I can ask students majoring in design to design the style for you."

Since you have no experience, you can choose a clothing factory with a larger scale. Their system does not need to be changed much, making it easier for you to manage.

Don't worry about the money, I can invest in you. Also, I want to buy some land to build a hotel, but it’s not convenient for me to show up in person, so I’ll put it in your name and you can manage it. ”

Xu Yao and Ji Changyu are on the same path, so it would be inappropriate for them to go into business together.

And Xu Gang is someone she can completely trust.

"That's fine with me, but the land prices have gone up a lot, where are you going to get that much money?"

This is not a price increase. Land will be more expensive in the future.

Xu Yao thought.

He said truthfully, "These are all the family fortunes left by Changyu's ancestors. Anyway, you don't have to worry about the money. Let's talk about the field trip."

The two men discussed it and took the train south in a swift and decisive manner.

At the train station, Xu Yao felt a gaze fixed on her, and she looked in the direction of the gaze in confusion.

All I saw was the back of a fat woman who was holding a child and had some difficulty walking.

Maybe I saw it wrongly, she just turned around.

Two figures rushed over, held the woman tightly, and punched her continuously.

"You're a slut who's been abandoned by a man, you cripple, where are you going?"

"We spent so much money on you, don't even think about not paying it back!"

Xu Xiangbei grabbed Xu Lanxiang's hair, kicked the child away, slapped Xu Lanxiang so hard that she fainted, and dragged her all the way to the train.

“Honestly, I found a good man for you. He’s a little old, but his son is promising.

I don't know where he got his fortune from, but he gave us 5,000 yuan as a betrothal gift in one go. As long as you take good care of his father, he will give you extra pocket money every month. What a wonderful thing. ”

Xu Lanxiang listened numbly, looking at Xu Yao, who was in high spirits, across the window.

When he looked at his broken leg again, tears suddenly fell like rain.

If she hadn't focused on marrying Liang Yuming that year, she could have been admitted to university.

Even if she only gets into a junior college, anything that happens to the Liang family won't have much impact on her.

Maybe I can be as glorious as Xu Yao.

Instead of being like this now, with a broken body, marrying an old man whose half body is buried in the ground...

"What are you looking at?" Xu Gang asked.

Xu Yao retracted her gaze and said with a smile, "I wasn't looking at anything. I was just thinking about how lucky I am."

She didn't even have to dirty her hands, Xu Lanxiang finished herself off.

As for Ji Changyu's current level, even Ji Peng, who has returned from further studies, cannot catch up with him.

She and An An have both escaped the tragic ending of the original plot, and their lives will get better and better.

In an instant, Xu Yao felt the anger swirling in her heart suddenly dissipate.

The sun is shining brightly overhead.
