In fact, Xu Xiangyang didn’t know that at this time, even if you have money, you can’t buy food.
Although food on the black market is a bit more expensive, their wages are still enough to afford it.
Instead of feeling sorry for money, it is better to fill your stomach. After all, money can be earned, but if you don’t have enough food to eat, it will be difficult to make money.
When I returned to the small courtyard, there was no one there, even Qian Wenqing had gone out to work.
I took a look at the warehouse and found it was completely empty. Even the things that were hard to sell had been taken out.
The goods unloaded yesterday are not here. I guess they will close early today and will not go to replenish the stock.
Xu Xiangyang had reminded Qian Wenqing before that he should try not to go to that small courtyard during the day. Who knew if someone would be watching him?
Once people find out about this, the losses will be huge.
Of course, Xu Xiangyang doesn’t care about goods worth thousands of dollars, as long as they are not wasted.
It's better not to waste something than to have someone steal it and sell it or eat it.
He hated seeing food being wasted the most; it made him feel sad.
These days no one can get enough to eat, and even if they do, the food isn’t good enough. It’s better not to waste things that can save lives.
After waiting for a long time, he sat in a chair thinking about something when he heard someone knocking on the door.
Xu Xiangyang sat up straight and suddenly felt very strange. There was a small window on the gate, which was locked. As long as it was opened, the bolt of the gate could be opened.
If Qian Wenqing and the others came back, they would definitely not knock on the door, but would open it themselves.
After all, they didn't dare ask him to run errands to open the door, so the person knocking on the door shouldn't be one of their own, so who could it be?
Xu Xiangyang walked out and looked through the small hole. There was an old acquaintance standing outside the door.
He thought about it and decided to open the door. After all, knocking on the door meant he had found the place. There was no point in pretending that no one was there.
"Brother Xu." Lin Min had an embarrassed look on his face and his body was shaking a little.
It seems that she should resist.
If you are resisting, why do you come and knock on the door?
Xu Xiangyang was very puzzled and asked, "Well, what's the matter?"
Ever since Xiaolin's incident, he hasn't seen the brother and sister again.
Now that he's here, I really can't guess what he's here for.
Lin Min took a deep breath, as if he was making a big decision.
"Brother Xu, I want to work with you!" she said, her face turning red.
Maybe it was because of what happened last time that he felt embarrassed to come and ask for help.
"What can you do?" Xu Xiangyang frowned and said, "Besides, your brother's previous decision means that we will no longer have any contact in the future. There is no need for that."
It’s not that he doesn’t feel sorry for her, but this matter is unforgivable. Those thousand kilograms of white flour seem to be swaying in front of him.
That's food, how can you bear to waste it?
Can't forgive.
Lin Min blushed, but she had no intention of leaving. She whispered, "Brother Xu, I'm so sorry. My brother already knows he's wrong. You can consider hiring me. I haven't done anything wrong. I've always worked hard. I don't ask for anything else. Just give me ten yuan a month."
I can do any dirty or tiring work and won't complain about it. Would you consider it?"
After saying so many things, she didn't even utter the word "please".
Xu Xiangyang frowned and looked her up and down. Her clothes were patched with many patches and were completely different from her previous clothes.
And he seems to have lost a bit of weight. How did that happen? It's only been a short time.
He asked, "Your brother has been here for quite some time. He must have made at least fifteen thousand, if not two thousand, right? How did you become like this? Why do you still need to work?"
Logically speaking, even if Xiao Lin went to work somewhere else, he wouldn't let Lin Min become like this. He could live a good life for two years by using his savings.
How come it's only been a short time and it's already like this? If you don't know, you might think it was a refugee from somewhere.
Lin Min had a complicated expression and bit her lip as she said, "My brother's money was taken away by his family, and he's still building a house for someone at home."
There was a hint of sarcasm in her tone. They became beggars because of their "family", and now they are back to being beggars.
"Then why aren't you over there?" Xu Xiangyang asked puzzledly, "Your brother is here, so he won't let you go hungry, right?"
Lin Min smiled when she heard this, a bitter smile. "My brother meant I was married off to another place, but they actually tricked me out and wanted to sell me to someone from out of town. I escaped, but I never went back."
The life she lived during this period was like a nightmare, a nightmare that she would never forget.
Fortunately, I escaped, otherwise...
However, she hadn't eaten for several days and had been drinking water to fill her stomach. She really couldn't hold on any longer.
If I hadn't thought of coming here, I would have died in some corner long ago.
Xu Xiangyang felt that the way she spoke did not sound fake, and the girl was indeed too weak.
Thinking that this kid had worked hard here before, he didn't defend him when Xiaolin got into trouble, but just left.
He sighed and said, "Come in, let's not talk about work for now."
He had to make things clear first, otherwise he wouldn't be able to take responsibility if anything happened later.
Lin Min was not happy, but just relieved that she had a place to stay for a while.
After entering the door, Xu Xiangyang brought her some egg cakes and poured her a large glass of water.
"I haven't cooked yet, so just have a bite." It's okay to put the food on the table and let the child eat his fill.
After all, he had done things with her before, so he couldn't just watch this girl starve to death at the door, could he?
They are all unfortunate children. If Xiao Lin hadn't done anything stupid, Lin Min would probably still be working here happily every day.
One person's decision also affects others.
He felt that Xiao Lin felt sorry for Lin Min, but he also hurt Lin Min.
How stupid...
Yeah, who is a normal person who can do those things?
Even if you are kicked out, you can still take the money back to support your parents.
Tsk tsk tsk…
Xu Xiangyang looked at Lin Min who was wolfing down her food and quickly said, "Eat slowly, or you'll choke."
Lin Min's tears flowed down her cheeks, and she kept chewing and swallowing.
"Thank you... Thank you, Brother Xu..." She said crying with something stuffed in her mouth.
Lin Min was really scared. She felt like she was about to starve to death, but she didn't die.
If Xu Xiangyang didn't open the door today, she probably wouldn't even have the strength to leave.
She would feel ashamed if she died here!
Xu Xiangyang felt bad when he saw her pitiful appearance.
He had no feelings since childhood and rarely felt pity for others. After all, there were too many pitiful people in this world who all needed pity, so how could he take care of them?
Therefore, as long as it does not harm his own interests, he will help.
Giving someone a piece of bread will prevent them from starving to death, and that's the best we can do.
But Lin Min’s current condition cannot be solved by a few egg cakes.
If she leaves this door, she might starve to death in a few days.
