Erni led Huzi and Sanwa out of the scrap yard, holding the 1.2 yuan they had just received.
Tiger plucked a branch from the tree and played with it in his hand.
"Making money is so hard!"
Sanwa grinned, "I have capital to sell ice cream again! Can you give me two yuan so I can go buy some ice cream to sell!"
Erni said, "Now that the weather isn't so hot, selling ice cream definitely won't be as easy as before."
Sanwa said, "I'll earn whatever I can, as long as I don't lose money! Besides, I'm well-known at the train station, everyone knows me, and they all like me."
Looking at the adorable, chubby-cheeked third child, Erni took out some money from her pocket.
"Then remember, if you can't sell them, don't cry, bring them back for us to eat!"
Sanwa took the money. "Okay, Sister Ni!"
Sanwa took the money and left, leaving Erni and Huzi behind.
Tiger, "What are we going to do to make money next?"
Erni didn't know how to make money and was very worried.
Just then, a few people passed by with newspapers in their hands.
"Wow, this is the first time I've ever seen such a high-profile search for someone! Newspapers, radio, and a huge reward—are they looking for gold?"
"Who knows! I haven't heard anything, otherwise I would definitely go and collect the money!"
"Who says otherwise! It would be absolutely exhilarating to earn that money!"
They left amidst their chatter, and Erni watched their retreating figures.
Tiger picked up a newspaper from the ground. "They just threw it away. It's so new, and it's today's newspaper. What a waste."
Erni looked at the newspaper he had unfolded, which contained information about searching for relatives. She didn't know many words.
"Tang Juan, Fan Shan!"
Tiger: "Our grandpa's name is Fan Shan, and our grandma's name is Juan Zi, right?"
Erni frowned. These two names seemed to be her grandparents, and their approximate ages were also written on them.
"Could it be a relative of Grandpa?"
"Should we go over and ask?" Tiger said.
Erni folded the newspaper neatly. "When we get back, I'll subtly ask him about it. Grandpa's physical and emotional state shouldn't fluctuate too much right now. You forgot, the doctor repeatedly told us this when he was discharged."
Tiger scratched his head. "Then how are you going to ask?"
Erni said, "Just ask Grandpa if he has any living relatives. He must be a rich man to spend so much money to find someone."
Tiger's eyes lit up instantly. "If he's a rich man, does that mean Grandpa is saved?"
Erni: "It's hard to say. What if it's for revenge?"
Tiger's mouth dropped open. He was amazed at Erni's eloquence. He had been in a good mood, but suddenly a bucket of cold water was poured over him.
"Did I not think things through, or did you think things through completely?"
"So you'll have to learn from me." Erni looked around. "Let's see where we can find work, even just odd jobs."
Tiger: "We're so small, what kind of work can we do?"
Erni saw people working in a courtyard not far away; autumn had arrived, and they were harvesting vegetables. So she grabbed Hu Zi and immediately ran over, asking the people inside through the gate…
Do you need someone to do the work?
The old woman looked up and saw two thin, bony children. Their shabby clothes clearly indicated that they were from a poor family.
He put down the cabbage in his hand, "But there's not much pay, I can give you the cabbage..."
Erni looked at the cabbage on the ground, thinking that taking it home would add to her dishes, so she nodded in agreement.
Then the old woman opened the door and let the two children in to help with the work, out of compassion.
For such a young child to be out making a living, it's likely that the adults in his family are either sick or deceased.

Sanwa arrived at the train station but couldn't find the person who regularly wholesaled ice cream. He found it strange, but that didn't stop him from doing business. Instead, he found another person to wholesale some ice cream, even though it was a bit more expensive.
He thought it was already very good if he could earn 50 cents after selling everything.
So he would hawk his ice cream along the way, shouting, "Ice cream, ice cream, delicious ice cream, sweet, delicious, and sour!"
"Men who eat this will become rich, and women who eat it will become beautiful!"
"It will make children smarter!"
This little girl has such a sweet tongue, everyone likes her, and then the ice cream sold out one after another.
As more and more people got off the train, he could only stand on the edge.
Fu Yi walked out of the train station. He wasn't very familiar with the area, but the small, run-down city looked pretty good.
Ma Chao followed closely behind, with two other undercover agents in his wake.
Fu Yi: "Let's go get something to eat first. I haven't had a decent meal in ages. Can we have some meat today?"
Ma Chao thought of the funds. Although the amount was generous, he didn't want to treat the guy to a meal. If he didn't give him a meal, he was afraid it would arouse the guy's suspicion.
"How about this! Let's go get some meat pies!"
"Fine, I guess!" Fu Yi thought to himself that his pockets were empty, and cursed the woman in his mind again. She was a complete nuisance who had spent all his money.
After they left.
Gu Lingxiao led his men out, but since he had met Fu Yi before, he could only follow behind.
"Uncle! It's you!" Sanwa ran over, carrying his bag in both hands.
Gu Lingxiao saw the familiar child, "Selling ice cream again."
“Yes!” Sanwa noticed that his uncle was accompanied by several men this time, and their expressionless faces made them seem unapproachable.
Gu Lingxiao took out some money from his pocket. "Let me see how much I have. I'll buy it all."
Sanwa was so happy he couldn't stop smiling. "There are 15 left, give me 1.7 yuan!"
Gu Lingxiao gave the child all the few coins he had.
