Chapter 205 Little Money-Lovers
noon.
Zhang Jing and Zhao Yi brought the two little ones to the square.
"Master, look at the square now. It is much more lively than in previous years."
Zhang Jing and Zhao Yi walked side by side. The two little guys had already run to their favorite stalls and started enjoying their snacks.
"It's only these few days that we can set up stalls freely, how can it not be lively?"
Zhao Yi said as he looked at the densely packed small stalls in front of him.
Most of these people are those who have returned to the city from the countryside. There are no factories in their area to accept them, and they failed the college entrance examination. They cannot just stay at home and rely on their parents for support, so they all want to find something to do.
But in the general environment, there are only a few businesses that can be thought of, and the competition is extremely fierce. Compared with chefs, they do not have the skills, and compared with those who have been in the black market for a long time, they do not have as much experience as others.
Business is only good during the Chinese New Year period.
You have to keep an eye on your wallet when you go shopping now, as some fitters have already started working.
The magical power of the two fingers can take money from other people's pockets without anyone noticing.
Zhao Yi looked at the stalls in the square and shook his head slightly. No wonder he could make a lot of money by importing goods from the south. The current market was completely different from what those people said. Basically, there was no stall selling southern goods.
"I guess you're right here."
Zhao Yi was looking at the stalls around him when Li Chao came up to him and smiled.
"You brought your wife and children here to play."
Zhao Yi smiled.
"I brought you here because I guessed you were here. Otherwise, I would have wanted to go back to my hometown to see my parents."
Li Chao smiled.
"Didn't Uncle Li and his family come to celebrate the New Year this year?"
Zhao Yi asked doubtfully.
Li Dequan has only one son and one daughter, and both of them live in the area.
"The village is quite busy, and he can't get away from it, so my mother stayed with him in the village. I came to see you to ask if you want to go back together. It's a good opportunity to go to Zhangjia Village to pay New Year's greetings."
Li Chao smiled.
"Okay, when will you be back?"
Zhao Yi nodded and went back to the county town to visit his aunt.
"Let's go back together tomorrow morning. I've already made arrangements with Xiaofang and the others. We'll have someone to keep us company on the way back."
Li Chao said with a smile.
“What do you think of these stalls?”
Zhao Yi looked at Li Chao and asked.
“Not very good, they are all stalls that can’t possibly make any money.”
Li Chao shook his head and said.
"I was thinking that we could go to the south together to do some small business this year."
Zhao Yi said jokingly.
"Brother Yi, if it's just a matter of running two trips for you, I can do it, but forget about doing business."
Li Chao expressed his thoughts.
I can take leave to help Zhao Yi run one or two trips, but there is no need to consider giving up my current job and following Zhao Yi to do business.
Li Chao's monthly salary including benefits is almost 80 yuan, which is more than what a couple earns in many families. How could he give up his current good life to start a business?
The business has only started to show signs of success this year. If it is banned again, who can help me find a new job? So there is no need to think about it. Li Chao will never give up his current job.
As for Zhao Yi, he is different. He is a relatively special technician and has good connections in the region. Even if the business fails in the end, he can still get a job as a technical assistant. Even if it is not as good as his current formal job, it is still a good job.
It is true that Zhao Yi has done favors for his family. Li Chao can take out all the family savings and let Zhao Yi do business, but Li Chao will not give up his job and follow Zhao Yi.
At present, Zhao Yi does not dare to give up his job and follow Su Hong to the south. He just has this idea. Thinking of what the man who picked up rubbish with him in his previous life said, Zhao Yi is still a little tempted. Now is the opportunity to verify whether that man was bragging or not.
As for the department store, Zhao Yi plans to take a leave to go and take a look. It depends on when Su Hong will arrange someone to take him there.
In fact, this is what most people think now. Only a small number of people with a long-term vision are willing to give up their jobs to start a business. However, that was in the 1990s. In the 1980s, no one would give up their job to do business.
In the 1990s, most people had no choice but to catch up with the wave of layoffs.
Of course, the wave of layoffs also affected this region, and many factories began to lay off a large number of employees.
The term "going south to work" began to appear in people's mouths.
Zhang Jing didn't know what Zhao Yi was thinking. Su Hong just said that she wanted to go to the south and asked Zhao Yi and Zhang Jing to go there to see if there were any business opportunities. Zhang Jing didn't understand either.
However, Zhang Jing was still more interested in seeing what Su Hong was going to do.
After chatting with Li Chao for a while in the square, Zhao Yi and Zhang Jing returned home, took the prepared gifts to Li Mingzhu's house, and then to Director Tu's house.
Finally, they went to Wen Jing's home and Director Xu's home at the garment factory. After they had made all the necessary connections in the area, they slowly returned home.
Start preparing gifts for your parents.
"Li Chao came to ask us to go back together. Is he going to drive the truck back?"
Zhang Jing asked as she sorted out the gifts.
"Of course we have to take a car. If we drive a truck back home, there's no way the cab can accommodate so many people. The cargo box will be full of coal dust, and we'll all be miners by the time we get home."
Zhao Yi smiled.
Zhang Jing thought so too.
early morning.
After breakfast, the two little ones took the sugar paintings they bought at the square yesterday and prepared to go back and share them with their younger siblings.
Everyone gathered together, the little ones exchanged New Year gifts, and then rushed to the bus station.
When they arrived at the county town, everyone went their separate ways.
Li Chao and his friends are going back to Wangou Village.
Zhao Yi first visited his two aunts' homes.
As soon as they entered the door, the two little guys ran towards their aunt.
"Grandma, Grandpa."
The two little guys ran up and shouted happily.
"Good grandson, good granddaughter."
When the second aunt saw the two little guys, her face immediately lit up with smiles.
Zhao Xuanxuan pushed the candy in her hand aside and fed it to her aunt.
"Xuan girl, you are still thinking about your aunt's love of candy."
Second aunt Zhao Yu bent down gently and took the candy handed to her by Zhao Xuanxuan.
"I brought you a gift, too."
Zhao Peng hurriedly searched for the candy he had brought.
"My grandchildren are very filial. They all remember that my aunt liked to eat candy."
Zhao Yu patted the two little guys on the head gently, took out the red envelopes that he had prepared in his pocket and handed one to each of them.
Then he turned to look at Zhao Yi and Zhang Jing, and smiled and invited them to come in and sit down.
"Are your parents still in the area?"
Second aunt Zhao Yu asked.
"Still in the area, at Zhao Gang's home."
Zhao Yi nodded.
At this time, the two little guys were showing off the red envelopes they had just received to their uncle and aunt. Seeing the proud looks of the two little guys, they also took out the red envelopes they had prepared and handed them over.
They also receive a monthly allowance when they are in college, and if they save a little they can still save a few dollars a month.
"If you take our red envelope, you have to promise to get into college in the future."
The two of them looked at the two money-grubbers who were holding on to the red envelopes and said.
