Triple-threat superstar An Zhixia, while wearing stilettos and having fun at her best friend's supermarket, fell and transmigrated into a bullied female supporting character – a young educate...
Chapter 436: Ambitious
According to Ai Zhuojia's idea, no matter whether her group completed the task or not, as long as they found the next task location, they could easily catch up with the first-ranked guest group.
The young man was about 16 or 17 years old, tall and big, a typical Victorian, New South Wales man, with a high nose bridge, big eyes and curly hair. He smiled cheerfully and brightly, following the Fang family of six like a dog-skin plaster.
Ai Zhuojia was afraid that the Fang family would have evil intentions and abandon her son, so she sent her eldest daughter to follow them. There were only two cameras anyway, and unless the Fang family was really operating behind the scenes, her family would be able to find the next clue without any effort.
An Zhixia raised her eyebrows when she saw this, and walked leisurely with the children on the pedestrian street. The streets were no less bustling than the shopping malls, and although it was Saturday, there were still many tourists coming and going.
Their lack of money prevents them from buying the fashionable and beautiful clothes, stationery, classics, etc. hanging in the shops, but that does not stop them from enjoying the sight of the audience behind the camera.
It was still very hot at four o'clock in the afternoon. They bought cream popsicles for six cents each and sat in a row on the steps.
Fang Qingyun looked at the older brother and sister who were looking at her family with embarrassment, "Big brother and sister, I'm sorry, this is the money my younger brother worked very hard to earn. He is a good person in every way, but he doesn't like to be taken advantage of.
If you feel hot, go to the shops to cool down. The fourth floor of Quanyechang is quite cool. "
Ai Zhuojia's eldest son scratched his head in embarrassment, "I'm not hot, it's much hotter where we are. I just followed you to broaden my horizons so that I don't have to go back to Victoria and be asked about my knowledge."
The little girl hugged her chest and snorted, "You mainlanders are stingy. You are nothing like us Victorians, who are so warm and hospitable. It's just a few cents worth of popsicles, what's there to brag about! I, I don't even care!"
Although she said so, her eyes were fixed on the popsicles in everyone's hands. Wei City is located in the northwest of Xiahua. The environment is harsh all year round. The economic and agricultural development are relatively backward, and people's living conditions are still quite primitive.
So their family of eight only depended on their mother's monthly salary of 20 yuan and their father's 200 yuan from growing fruits and raising cattle and sheep. The money seemed a lot, but the prices in Victoria were also high, and more than 400 yuan was equivalent to 200 yuan in the inland.
All the expenses for buying clothes, shoes, medicine, vegetables, meat, rice, flour, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, etc. are paid from here. On average, each person can share more than two yuan a month.
She could only share a popsicle with her brothers and sisters when her mother got her salary once a year. It was only the most ordinary sweet kind, and she had never tasted what a cream popsicle tasted like.
This time, the two of them were able to get the chance to record the show, and they put all their efforts into competing for first place, just to change their lives. They came to Kyoto, stayed in a clean and tidy hotel, ate steamed buns and meat with big mouthfuls, as if they were in heaven.
Having seen the prosperous scene, the little girl didn't know if she would have to spend the rest of her life guarding these memories when she returned home. The more she thought about it, the more she felt wronged. We were all human beings, so why were others clean and beautiful, while she had rough skin, pale face and thin body.
She doesn't want a life that's too good, but at least she should have enough food and clothes, go to school, and have the ability to fly out of Victoria, right?
Tears fell to the ground in strings, and Fang Qingyun was so scared that she immediately comforted her and said, "Big sister, I, I was just joking with you, don't cry. I, I'll ask my brother to buy you another one?"
“I don’t want to!” The little girl was a little upset. She had a strong sense of self-esteem. She shook her head and said bitterly, “You guys are just better at reincarnation than me! If I could go to school, I would definitely pass the imperial examination and come to Kyoto to study. After graduating from university and getting a job, I could eat cream popsicles every day. I could even buy two each time, eat one and throw one away. No, I’d treat someone to one!”
An Zhixia chuckled and said, "You are quite ambitious, little girl. In that case, you should go back and help your parents complete the task. There will be rewards for the first place in each issue, but there will also be big prizes for the top three who make it to the last issue.
As long as you work hard, no matter whether you can win the grand prize or not, I will help you convince your mother to let you go to school, how about that?
We are waiting for you in Kyoto."
The little girl Toyihan asked with sparkling eyes: "Auntie Xiaoan, are you telling the truth? Can you really convince my mother?" But then she said dejectedly: "But Auntie Xiaoan, even if you convince my mother, our family doesn't have that much money to send me to school."
An Zhixia touched her forehead and said, "How can you not have money? The simplest things in the world can be solved with money. Now that the country's economy is open, there are business opportunities everywhere. The fruits and vegetables produced in your Wei City are among the most delicious in the country.
However, many people in the mainland do not have the opportunity to taste it. As transportation becomes more and more developed in the future, the fruits and vegetables from Victoria will definitely be transported to every city!
And your roasted lamb is also very delicious. Wool can also be woven into many objects.
Besides, inconvenient transportation is also a business opportunity. If the goods from outside are brought to the local area, wouldn’t it be possible to sell as many as possible?”
Tuoyihan blinked his big eyes and opened his mouth involuntarily: "Auntie Xiaoan, from what you said, money is really easy to make?"
"Of course," she pointed to Quanyechang, "the things here are cheap and regular. You can buy some and take them back. Add some hard-earned money to the transportation fee, and you will definitely be able to earn back the tuition."
"But I have no money," Toihan said dejectedly, pursing his lips.
"Can you dance?" An Zhixia pushed the little girl to a more open place and asked.
"Yes, we people in Wei City especially like dancing and singing," Toyhan nodded.
"Then you should start making money now," An Zhixia took off the hat on her brother Alimu's head and put it on the ground. She then went to a store to borrow a basin of ten cents and put it in Alimu's hand.
"Try it. Just use these as your dap (hand drums) and play the voice for your sister. When you make money later, remember to pay me back the rent for the basins."
Alimu patted the plastic basin a few times, nodded with a smile and said, "It's okay." Then he began to pat it in a very rhythmic manner.
Fang Gexin squinted her eyes and smiled, then leaned close to Toyihan's ear and whispered something.
After hearing this, Toyihan gritted his teeth and nodded vigorously, "Don't worry, if I make money, I will definitely return it to you three times!"
After she finished speaking, she swung her body, like a butterfly dancing to the drum beats. The delicate and tall girl, dancing in an exotic style, quickly attracted a wave of tourists.
Fang Gexin and the others each took a penny and threw it into their hats one by one.
