Chapter 76: After beating the old one, here comes an even older one.
After Xu Heye left, the other students went home soon, leaving only a few like-minded male classmates who had not left.
Liu Yang curiously asked Wang Cai, "Wang Cai, do you really have Andy Lau's 'As Tears Go By'? I really want to see this movie, but unfortunately I haven't been able to see it yet."
"Of course!" Wang Cai raised his neck, his face beaming with pride. "Not to mention Andy Lau's 'As Tears Go By', Chow Yun-fat's 'A Better Tomorrow' and 'A Lang's Story', I can even get the recently released 'The Taoist Priest'."
"Can you get the movie 'Chicken and Duck Talk' that was released last year, Wang Cai? I want to watch this movie." Another boy, Lin Zizhuang, asked.
"no problem!"
"What about 'School Storm'?"
"No big deal."
"Wang Cai, you're amazing. You have so many movies. Can you get any disc?"
"Of course." Liu Yang and Lin Zizhuang's envious eyes made Wang Cai very proud. He lowered his voice and said mysteriously, "Let me tell you, besides these Hong Kong movies, I have some more special discs..."
"Special disc?"
"Yes," Wang Cai nodded. "Compared to these movies, these special films are much better sellers. People who buy them don't even bargain."
"What is that?" Liu Yang asked.
Wang Cai shook his head. "That's hard to say. But if you want to see it, I can take you to the music store near the school. There's a CD player there, and you can borrow the owner's CD player for a fee."
"Can I borrow the boss's CD player? Does it cost money?"
"It's not expensive, only three dollars an hour."
Lin Zizhuang opened his mouth wide. Three yuan for an hour isn't expensive? A movie should be at least two hours long, so it would cost six yuan to watch it all, right?
Six dollars is his living expenses for two days!
He looked at Wang Cai. This kid used to be as stingy as him, but now he was willing to spend six dollars to lend them a CD player to treat them to a movie. How much money did he make during the summer vacation?
Lin Zizhuang was a little moved.
"Thank you very much, Wang Cai, you are so generous."
"So when are we going?"
Wang Cai thought for a moment and said, "We don't have classes today anyway, so why don't we go home for lunch? I'll treat you guys to a meal outside. Afterwards, we can go straight to the movies. I have a lot of movies!"
"That's embarrassing. You treated us to a DVD and even asked you to treat us to a meal."
"A meal is nothing. I have money!" Wang Cai said, "Let me tell you, I can treat you to a meal and watch a movie now because I earn it myself."
"Is it really that profitable?" Liu Yang was also a little tempted.
"Really?" Wang Cai opened his schoolbag and pulled out a disc. "This is a disc of 'Uncle Zombie'. The original version costs twenty yuan, but you can only buy it from me for half that. But do you know how much it costs me to buy a disc like this?"
"How much?"
Wang Cai raised five fingers and gestured, "Five dollars!"
Liu Yang opened his mouth wide, "Earn double?"
"That's because I only bought a small amount of discs! Those who buy more can get the price even lower!"
"Wouldn't that make more money?"
"Yeah." Wang Cai shrugged. "They specialize in selling this and spend a lot of time on it. I only sold it during the summer vacation. Now that school has started, I guess I'll sell even less."
“Who did you sell them to?”
Wang Cai looked at Liu Yang and asked, "You want to sell it too?"
"I'm just curious."
"It's not shameful to want to sell. You can buy the goods from me. I will give them to you at the original price." Of course not, he can lower the purchase price.
"Really?" Liu Yang said excitedly, then added a little embarrassedly, "I just want to earn some pocket money."
"I understand." Wang Cai patted Liu Yang's shoulder. "I tell you, this disc is really easy to sell. As long as it's cheaper than the original, there will be many people willing to buy it."
He looked at Lin Zizhuang again: "If you want to wholesale some discs to sell, you can also come to me."
After that, he said, "Let's go, let's go eat, and then we'll go watch some DVDs."
A few hours later, the three of them came out of the video store with red faces, as if they had opened the door to a new world.
Wang was a little proud: "How is it? Exciting!"
It’s a pity that they can only watch.
If - Wang Cai didn't know what he was thinking about, but a hint of ill intent flashed in his eyes.
A few hours ago, Xu Heye had just left the school gate when she saw Wang Sumei looking around at the school gate. She frowned. Wang Sumei was really stubborn. She couldn't find her in Zhangshu Lane, but she actually chased her all the way to school.
Xu Heye originally wanted to avoid people and slip away quietly, but after thinking about it, she decided to go over.
"Grandma Wang, what do you want to talk to me about?"
A hint of disgust flashed across Wang Sumei's eyes, but when she turned to face Xu Heye, it quickly turned into a kind smile.
"He Ye, your grandpa and I have been married for more than ten years. You can call me grandma. As for me, I only have your second uncle as a son, and no daughter. In my heart, you are no different from my own granddaughter."
Xu Heye: “…”
She suddenly felt a little sick.
How could Wang Sumei have the nerve to say such things? She treated him like her own granddaughter. If your own granddaughter came to your home, would you try every possible means to drive her away?
"Grandma Wang, if you have something to say, just tell me. I'm in a hurry to go home. It's so hot, I don't have time to accompany you here to bask in the sun."
A hint of coldness flashed in Wang Sumei's eyes. What an impolite bastard. He doesn't even understand the simplest principle of respecting elders.
Xu Heye watched her face change color coldly, thinking it would be better if she couldn't bear it and left in anger. Unexpectedly, Wang Sumei endured it and continued with a smile: "Heye, I came to you to discuss this housing problem. Our old Dong family's house is not spacious, but I discussed it with your grandfather, and if we clean it up, we can still squeeze out a place for you to live. You see, why don't you move back in? It will save you from paying rent."
A hint of sarcasm flashed in Xu Heye's eyes. You know, it was less than half a year ago that the Dong family had a family war in order to prevent Xu Heye from staying in the Dong family.
Xu Heye refused directly: "Grandma Wang, no need. I'm used to living alone, so I won't bother your family."
"Don't bother me, don't bother me," Wang Sumei said hurriedly. "Your grandfather, your two uncles, and I would love for you to come home and live here. Besides, it's not safe for you to live alone out there."
When your grandpa learned that a psychopathic killer had appeared in the alley where you rented, he was so worried he couldn't sleep all night. After much deliberation, we decided that even if we have to live a little more cramped, it's safer to live with our elders."
Safety?
It's so funny. Why didn't you think that it's unsafe for a little girl to rent a house alone when you wanted to kick her out?
Too lazy to talk to Wang Sumei anymore, Xu Heye directly used her ultimate move: "Grandma Wang, it's impossible for us to move back home.
You know, my mom spent a lot of money decorating the rental house so that I could live comfortably. If I move out now, all that money will be wasted!
Besides, I signed an agreement with the landlord that my deposit won't be returned if I terminate the lease temporarily. Adding the two together, I'm losing hundreds of dollars. Look, if you can compensate me for these losses, I'll move back in with you."
As soon as Xu Heye finished speaking, Wang Sumei's face fell. She had wanted Xu Heye to move back because she was worried about the rent she paid to the Lian family, as well as the living expenses Dong Taohua and Xu Hui gave her. Now that she hadn't gotten a penny, asking her to pay hundreds of yuan out of her own pocket was just a pipe dream.
Xu Heye looked at Wang Sumei's cold face, sneered, and got on the bus.
But she didn't expect that after beating the old one, an even older one would come. The next day, it was Old Dong who came instead.
