In front of a store in Ximen Market, Yongfang County, a group of people were arguing, "We agreed to settle the bill today, why hasn't your boss come yet?"

"Please forgive me. I promised to settle the bill today. I will definitely come."

The store employee was so anxious that he tried to call the compound where Zhuang Guoliang rented a house, but no one answered.

"Hey, stop fighting. I've checked and there's no one at the Zhuang family's house.

It's strange that the door was open and everything was missing. Could it be that he ran away with the debt?"

The old man in the telephone booth muttered, "These days, there are so many people going into business, is it that easy to do business?

Young people quit their jobs one after another, dreaming of getting rich overnight. How impetuous! "

"Hey, hey, hey, wait a minute, I see that Zhuang."

"Hey! Zhuang Guoliang! Here's your phone number!"

Zhuang Guoliang pretended not to hear anything and walked upstairs vigorously. When he reached the door, he found it was ajar.

The room, which was originally filled with furniture, was now in a mess, with only a few pieces of discarded newspapers and a lame stool lying on top.

The sofa, TV, radio and large wardrobe in the house are all gone!

Zhuang Guoliang couldn't believe it. He went into the house and searched around, but found nothing.

That bitch Zhang 녉 Hui ran away?

She took all her savings, her gold, and all the valuables in the house and ran away?

Oh my God, Zhuang Guoliang yelled as if to vent his anger. If he didn't vent some of the anger in his chest, he felt that he would explode on the spot.

His eyes fell on the fence outside. It was the fifth floor. Would he die a quick death if he jumped down?

"Hey, Xiaozhuang! Your store called you and asked you to come over quickly. They said a bunch of people are waiting for you there."

The boss of the telephone booth poked his head outside the door, interrupting Zhuang Guoliang's sudden thoughts.

Zhuang Guoliang wiped his face vigorously and followed the old man in silence.

"Is this door unlocked?"

"Is it still necessary to lock it? There are only four walls left in the house."

When Zhuang Guoliang was about to die, he actually developed a sense of humor.

"Zhuang, actually I saw your lover, no, that woman moving this morning.

This person has reached a desperate situation. Don't dwell on it. Think more about the concerns. You have children, right? How old are they?"

The old man followed Zhuang Guoliang upstairs and watched him collapse and scream in the house, looking so crazy that he seemed like a demon.

I encouraged him with the belief that saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda.

Although he looked down on Zhuang Guoliang, he heard that the woman living with him was his best friend, a typical man who abandoned his wife and children and lost his moral character as soon as he got a little money.

But it would be so unlucky to die in their compound, as his family lives in the building opposite!

"I see, Master. Thank you."

For the first time, Zhuang Guoliang thought of Zhuang Xiaoyu. Since he went to the city to do business, Xiaoyu said she wanted to come with him but was rejected by him. The father and daughter rarely saw each other once a year.

At first, we were short of money and couldn't afford to rent a house. Later, Zhang 녉hui moved in, and it was inconvenient for 께yu to come again.

Besides, Zhuang Xiaoyu still had to go to school, so he stayed in the countryside and let Jiang Hongmei take care of him. He would give her some living expenses regularly and have them send back.

Ever since Xiaobao died, he had always wanted a boy, but no matter how many women he found, he had no children.

Zhuang Guoliang smiled bitterly. He didn't expect that now, Xiao Yu was the only bloodline left in his family.

The eldest master is right. I still have children. I have to leave a way out for them.

He hurried to the market and found the only employee in the store, along with a large group of villagers who came to supply the store, talking to a man.

"How about you follow me from now on? I will double whatever Zhuang Guoliang gives you."

"As for you, we are all from the same village, so I want to tell you something honest.

I want to put Zhuang Guoqing's words here. If you sell the goods to me, the price I give you will definitely not be lower than that of Zhuang Guoliang.

And I can guarantee that we will deliver the goods in exchange for the money. I will never withhold your hard-earned money like Zhuang Guoliang did."

"This... National Day, you're not kidding me, are you?"

"Uncle, what do you want to do? Let me tell you, I have a way. I have a friend who drives a truck and specializes in collecting mountain products from our mountains and selling them outside.

Wild yams, mushrooms, fruits, medicinal herbs, game, whatever it was, he wanted them all.

If you catch any, feel free to bring them to me and I will take them all."

Zhuang Lao Da came over, distributed cigarettes to the people in the circle, and struck a match to light cigarettes for people, and said in a low voice, "My uncles and brothers, I know that you have a verbal agreement with Zhuang Lao Si.

But this agreement is not written in black and white. If you don't do it, what can Zhuang Lao Si do?"

"Zhuang Guoqing, if Zhuang Laosi finds out about what you're doing, it'll be a mess for you two brothers, right?"

Boss Zhuang waved his hands, his eyes full of hatred, "Then don't worry about it. It was Zhuang Guoliang who breached the contract first. You sold the goods, but he didn't pay you as agreed.

He has no money, but you can give it to him.

We all have to support our families, so we can't starve several mouths at home just for a little bit of friendship.

Don’t you think so?

“Yes, yes, yes!”

"What Guoqing said makes sense!"

"That's fine. We'll deliver the goods to you when we get them in the village."

"We have a team of dried fruits to sell to you!"

"Okay, uncles, let's treat everyone to a meal today.

It's so cold, let's drink some wine to warm ourselves up."

“Let’s go…”

Boss Zhuang called his friends and dragged them outside, where he met Zhuang Guoliang's eyes.

He was not afraid at all, but bumped into Zhuang Guoliang fiercely, "Excuse me!"

Zhuang Guoliang twisted his arm and said, "Boss, don't go too far!"

"Hey, isn't this our boss Zhuang? Long time no see, how did you end up in such a mess?"

Since the two brothers of the Zhuang family were released, because Daya was almost sent to be a child bride, and Zhuang Guoliang ignored the children, the brothers of the Zhuang family completely married Zhuang Guoliang.

Zhuang Guoliang started a mountain goods business, and the eldest and second Zhuang followed suit.

They bought whatever goods Zhuang Guoliang bought. Whenever Zhuang Guoliang did something wrong, they would try to poach his suppliers.

"Don't be so arrogant. Do you still act like a big brother?"

"Zhuang Guoliang, you have the nerve to say that you and the second brother took all the blame on us. Please take care of the children when you come.

Why are you doing this? The children can't even have a hot meal in the middle of winter.

The second child's family was very hungry and cried on the kang only two days after he was born.

"My dear, you were almost sold. Don't tell me you don't know or can't see. Are you blind?"
