After half a minute, Cao Laoliu let go of Zhou Jiaxiang's hand, nodded to Liang Xiaobao, and said, "I think he's okay. If I teach him well, he should have a bright future."
"Okay! Brother Cao, I may have to wait a while before I come to your place. This kid's share..."
Before Liang Xiaobao could finish his words, Cao Laoliu's expression changed.
Cao Laoliu widened his eyes and cursed, "Liang Xiaobao, why don't you work with me and bring people here to entertain me? He's just a green hand who doesn't know anything. I have to spend a lot of effort to train him. When the time comes, the share of the profits will be recorded in your name. Aren't you happy?"
"Sixth brother, don't be angry. I didn't say I wouldn't follow you. I just came a month or two later." Liang Xiaobao said with a wry smile.
"There are many people who want to follow me and enjoy the good life. It's up to you whether you come or not." Cao Laoliu said proudly.
"Sixth brother, I'll do it as soon as possible. You know, Brother He has always valued me. If I leave right away, Brother He will definitely not be happy. He might even vent his anger on you, Brother Cao!" Liang Xiaobao looked like he was thinking about Cao Laoliu.
"Okay, I'll wait for you for a month at most. If you don't come in a month, you don't have to come anymore in the future." Cao Laoliu said unhappily.
"I got it, Brother Cao. Don't worry. I will definitely hand over everything here within a month." Liang Xiaobao promised, patting his chest.
"Take your brothers and get away from me. Don't delay my making money." Cao Laoliu then had a smile on his face.
After cursing with a smile, Cao Laoliu turned around and tried to get into the crowd again.
"Brother Cao, wait a minute." Liang Xiaobao grabbed Cao Laoliu's arm.
"What else do you want?" Cao Laoliu was impatient.
"I'll take my little brother to your home later. Can you take some time to teach me?" Liang Xiaobao asked with a smile on his face.
"One thirty in the afternoon, don't be late." Cao Laoliu waved his hand and without waiting for Liang Xiaobao to speak, he plunged into the crowd again.
Zhou Jiaxiang blinked.
He didn't understand a lot of what Liang Xiaobao and Cao Laoliu said.
The more Zhou Jiaxiang listened to the topic of division of profits and Brother He's, the more confused he became.
Zhou Jiaxiang only understood one sentence, that Cao Laoliu asked Liang Xiaobao to take him to his house at 1:30 in the afternoon, and Cao Laoliu wanted to teach him some skills.
After learning this skill, you can eat delicious fried cakes, right?
Zhou Jiaxiang couldn't help but lick his lips with his tongue.
"Boy, remember this? The Brother Cao just now will be our boss from now on. You should follow him and work hard." Liang Xiaobao patted Zhou Jiaxiang's shoulder and said.
Zhou Jiaxiang nodded.
Cao Laoliu said that if he followed him, he could eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks, so Zhou Jiaxiang also wanted to eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks.
"Let's go! It's still early, I'll take you to eat fried dough cakes." Liang Xiaobao patted Zhou Jiaxiang and walked forward.
Liang Xiaobao was afraid that Zhou Jiaxiang would run away.
There weren't many children in the town who didn't go to school. The few who did were all taken away by Cao Laoliu.
Cao Laoliu just said that Zhou Jiaxiang is a "good seedling". Liang Xiaobao plans to win over Zhou Jiaxiang so that Zhou Jiaxiang will be willing to "make money" for him in the future.
Besides, fried dough sticks are not expensive.
One pancake costs three cents, two cost five cents.
Liang Xiaobao himself was a little greedy.
"Brother, can you treat me to some wontons?" Zhou Jiaxiang asked, following behind Liang Xiaobao.
A bowl of wontons costs 20 cents and contains meat.
Zhou Jiaxiang hasn't eaten meat for more than a month.
There was no other way. Ding Ermei was stingy and couldn't afford to buy meat. She was hoping that Zhao Zhenzhu's parents would send some meat so that the Zhou family could have a good meal.
The Zhao family’s money didn’t just come from the wind.
Since Zhao Qingshan and his sons knew two months ago that Zhao Zhenzhu shared the food sent by her parents' home with her husband's family, they sent less meat. This month, they didn't send any meat at all, and directly asked Zhao Zhenzhu and her sons to go back to her parents' home to eat.
Zhou Jiaxiang waited and waited, but for more than a month he didn't get to taste any meat.
Since Liang Xiaobao was willing to treat him, Zhou Jiaxiang of course wanted to eat something good.
"Boy, don't be so arrogant. A bowl of wonton costs 20 cents, which can buy six, seven, no, it seems like eight fried dough cakes. Forget it, it doesn't matter how many fried dough cakes you can buy with 20 cents. Anyway, I'm only treating you to one fried dough cake today."
Liang Xiaobao is not good at math and the more he calculates, the more confused he becomes.
He didn't know whether his calculation was correct or not, but he was reluctant to spend two cents to treat Zhou Jiaxiang to wontons.
"Okay, brother." Zhou Jiaxiang didn't dare to complain for fear of saying too much. Liang Xiaobao was not even willing to treat him to a fried pancake.
Supply and marketing cooperative, cloth counter.
Liang Xiaohe and Zhang Mei stood behind the counter, their faces filled with dark clouds.
They are really unlucky today. Market day is usually busier than usual, and today there were a few pieces of defective cloth that did not require cloth coupons. This is going to make both of them exhausted to death!
There was a crowd of people outside the counter, but inside, Liang Xiaohe and Zhang Mei moved slowly.
"Comrade, could you please hurry up? There are too many people here and it's too uncomfortable to squeeze in." An old lady was squeezed to the point of being staggered by others and couldn't help but urge.
"If you feel uncomfortable being squeezed, then don't come and join in the fun! Do I need you to teach me how to do things? Who do you think you are?" Liang Xiaohe slammed the scissors in his hand on the counter with a "snap" and said with a frown.
Liang Xiaohe's temper also depends on the person he's in.
If it was a cadre wearing a Zhongshan suit, Liang Xiaohe would definitely agree and then speed up.
The lady's clothes were half-new and had two patches on them. She was a stranger, so Liang Xiaohe concluded that she was an old country lady who came to the market.
Liang Xiaohe, a salesperson in a supply and marketing cooperative, was "taught a lesson" by an old country lady. He was definitely not convinced.
"Auntie, don't you see that we have been busy until now? Our hands are so tired that we can hardly lift them, and you are still urging us to hurry up. Even Zhou Baopi wouldn't order people around like you." Zhang Mei was also making sarcastic remarks.
"Comrade, I didn't order you around. I just asked if you could be a little faster. I've been standing here for ten minutes, and you two have only torn two pieces of cloth each." The old lady said with an apologetic smile.
"What's wrong with tearing two pieces of cloth in ten minutes? Normally, we can't even tear two pieces of cloth in a whole day." Liang Xiaohe rolled his eyes at the old lady.
"Comrade, there are so many people waiting today, it's different from usual times. Usually no one buys, so even if you sit behind the counter and take a nap, no one will rush you!" The old lady said in a serious tone, not knowing if she was stubborn or not.
The cloth counter of the supply and marketing cooperative is usually deserted except for the month before the Chinese New Year.
The salesperson either chats or knits sweaters at work every day and has a lot of free time.
Today, the place was so crowded because there was defective cloth for sale that did not require cloth coupons.
"This is our speed, we can't go any faster. If you want to wait, then wait. If you can't wait, don't buy it." Zhang Mei was also annoyed. She rolled her eyes at the old lady and said unhappily.
"You...what's your attitude?" The old lady's voice trembled with anger.
The old lady didn't understand. She just urged them. Why were these two sales clerks so aggressive?
