Borrowing a Train, To Start Doing Business

the next day.

At five o'clock, Jiang Zhou had already woken up.

He barely slept at all.

The wound was painful all night, when finally the drowsiness came to him in the early hours of the morning, the Rooster began crowing.

When it sounded for the second time, Jiang Zhou immediately got up from the bed.

The sky began to slowly clear the land.

He walked into the kitchen, lit a fire, and prepared to cook porridge for his wife and son with the rest of the rice yesterday.

However, what he did not expect was that the old wooden door opened before he lit a fire.

As soon as he looked up, he found Liu Mengli standing at the door with Chloe and Zoe

Both of his children are clearly still sleepy.

Chloe and Zoe yawned, and each held Liu Mengli's hand.

Jiang Zhou was stunned.

“It's only five o'clock, why are you guys up?”

“They woke up alone.”

Liu Mengli paused for a moment, and said, “Last night they were, hearing you say you were going to the district this morning, and they woke up early when the chickens were crowing, and insisted on coming with you ."

He thought for a moment, and added, "Me and the kids aren't doing anything at home either. If I go with you I can help."

Chloe's yawning.

Zoe was sleepy until she lowered her little head.

It was clearly her mother who woke them up! !

However, at first the two brothers were really sleepy.

But when they saw that Jiang Zhou was leaving, they immediately woke up.

The two ran towards Jiangzhou, grinning widely and smiling adorablely, their soft hair rubbed into Jiangzhou's hands.

“Dad, Chloe also wants to go to the county town!”

“Zoe, also want to go, eat, pancake, ahh, enaaakk~”

how could Jiang Zhou resist his two children.

He sighed.

I don't want to rub the heads of her two children.

“Good.”

Jiang Zhou had no choice but to stand up and say to Liu Mengli, “You and the children wait here for a while. I'll take back the mugwort and bamboo shoots, and borrow a wooden carriage!"

Seeing Liu Mengli agree to it

Jiang Zhou immediately stood up, clapped his hands, and walked out of the house.

Liu Mengli immediately went to help his two children ready to be ready.

JiangZhou first went to Mount Brigatte and brought back the mugwort leaves and bamboo shoots that fell at the foot of the mountain last night.

Then, he walked over to Jiang Changbao's house located in front of the village and knocked on its door.

It's almost light now.

People in rural areas go to bed early at night and wake up early.

Especially in the morning, the weather is cool and best suited for work.

Therefore, when Jiang Zhou knocked on the door, Jiang Changbao was already awake.

Hearing the knock on the door, Jiang Changbao smoked his dry cigarette and was a little confused.

Who comes to visit this early in the morning?

Does he not work? !

Jiang Changbao opened the door.

However, when he clearly saw the person standing outside the door, he almost choked on his cigarette!

"uhuk! Jiang Laosan's son? Why are you here?!"

The face of Jiang Zhou who had not worked all year looked very smooth.

He was a famous unemployed man in the village.

As the village chief, Jiang Changbao, of course, recognized him immediately.

However, he actually did not have a good impression of Jiang Zhou, just as he was about to expel him, Jiang Zhou spoke first.

“Uncle, I'm looking for you because there's interest!”

As descendants of the same family.

Jiang Zhou indeed should call him uncle.

However, Jiang Changbao was also reluctant.

He felt that if he agreed, nothing good would happen!

Jiang Changbao's expression turned ugly.

After smoking a cigarette, he finally answered.

“What's up?”

“Don't uncle have a wooden train?”

This guy!

Jiang Changbao choked again by the puff of dry smoke and nearly choked to death!

this bastard!

How dare Jiangzhou want my wooden carriage!

Jiangzhou is famous for its bad nature and

Jiang Changbao knew, without waiting for Jiang Zhou to react, Jiang Changbao was about to close the door!

"No no! I don't have a wooden car here! If it is worthless! "Just

Only the door can't be closed.

Jiang Changbao looked again

It turned out that Jiang Zhou was holding the door with his feet?

Then he smiled.

“Uncle, I've seen it, Isn't your wooden train located on the page!”

Jiang Zhou's eyes were sharp.

With just a glance, he could see the carriage leaning under the fragrant olive tree.

The wooden train looks fine!

Jiang Changbao What a crime has he committed!

Then he rubbed his hand.

Jiang Changbao knew that his wagon was already the target of Jiang Zhou.

With a sad face, he stopped smoking, and was about to convince Jiangzhou that his wooden carriage was worthless, besides that he also had to use the wooden carriage to pull things.

In the end, I saw Jiang Zhou stretch out his hand with a laugh, and pull out something from his pocket.

"Uncle, can you sell me your wooden carriage? Otherwise, you can lend it to me for a day, and I will pay the rent! "

Jiang Zhou held a stack in his hand.

At a glance, he saw there seemed to be a piece of money worth Rp. 20,000

Great guy!

At least in his hand there are more than Rp.20,000? !

Jiang Changbao's eyes widened!

His first reaction was whether Jiangzhou went to steal it, but as soon as these words were spoken, he remembered that this boy was eyeing his wooden carriage!

“If you want to buy it, pay me Rp. 6,000 and I'll sell it to you!”

Jiang Changbao gritted his teeth and opened the price directly.

To be honest if you calculate the raw materials and labor costs of this wooden train, it costs at least Rp. 8,000 to Rp. 10,000

But Jiang Changbao was a woodworker, so he could save money.

Another thing he fears.

If he didn't sell it, how would Jiang Zhou, this brat, steal it.?

do not Rp. 6,000

Even Rp.600 also he will not get it!

"Good! Thank you, uncle! "

Jiang zhou spoke while taking out Rp.6,000, from the pile of money in his hand and handing it to Jiang Changbao.

then he walked to the courtyard, and went with the wooden carriage.

Jiang Changbao, Should he cry or laugh?

………………

While pulling the cart, he placed two large nylon bags filled with mugwort and a bamboo basket on it.

When Jiang Zhou returned home, Liu Mengli and Chloe, Zoe had just finished taking a bath.

It's only about 5:30 now

Jiang Zhou brought Chloe and Zoe aboard the carriage and was about to let Liu Mengli ride as well.

Jiangzhou instead looked at Liu Mengli's slightly embarrassed face and he looked at Jiang Zhou in annoyance.

“If I ride instead of unreasonable?”

He pursed his lips and said, “I walk alone.”

Jiang Zhou did not insist.

Now he wrapped the rope in front of the cart on his shoulder.

With a strong pull, the wagon moved.

In the distance, a new sun showed his face.

The air is fresh and clean.

The four of them pulled a wooden carriage and walked towards the city of Qing'an.

………………

06:30 o'clock.

Jiang Zhou and Liu Mengli finally arrived in Qing'an County with Chloe and Zoe.

They returned to the flats in the mining area.

After yesterday's sale, word of mouth spread, and in just one day, everyone already knew that there would be a man selling mugwort leaves here this morning.

The mugwort leaves look fresh due to the glint of dewdrops.

The new mugwort leaves are very good if made rice cakes.

Hence.

When Jiang Zhou had just parked the trolley and took down Chloe and Zoe, several middle-aged women came from a distance.

Everyone brought a vegetable basket.

They looked at Jiangzhou from afar.

"Oh! You really came early in the morning!"

"Let's see! Let me see! Did you pluck fresh mugwort leaves here?!"

"Are there wild vegetables? Today is festival day, I want to buy some vegetables to eat, My husband loves these vegetables!"

.......

A group of people came.

Chloe and Zoe who had never seen so many people before, and she was so frightened that she hid behind Jiangzhou.

One of them poked out a black head, silently taking out a part of their head from behind Jiang Zhou.

The two children blinked at the sight of several middle-aged aunts wearing modern clothes.

"Oh! Are these your children? They're twins

! So sweet!"

"Truely carefree and beautiful! It's just a little skinny, what's up with them? Choose to eat, right?"

"You must immediately give them plenty of food, although difficulties should not let children also difficulties!"

...

A few aunts came and patted Chloe and Zoe's little heads one by one.

The two children were getting used to it and felt they had no evil intentions, so they came out from behind JiangZhou's back in shame.

“Come, eat candy!”

An old woman took out two sweets from her pocket.

the candy is colorful, it is colorful candy.

The two children had never eaten this kind of candy before, and their hands shrank, neither of them daring to lend a hand to pick it up.

Jiangzhou smiled and said: "It's candy, it's delicious, Chloe and Zoe can take it, but have to thank you."

Hearing Jiangzhou's words, Chloe and Zoe took it one by one.

The two sisters said in small voices "Thank you, aunty~"

The child's cute voice made the aunt smile with a big smile.

"Ouch! Good boy, they're so adorable "

He reached out his hand and touched the faces of the two children, and then asked Jiangzhou to wrap the mugwort leaves for him.

“Do not talk about anything else, give me one kilogram!”

Jiangzhou didn't have scales, so he basically measured the weight using his hands.

yesterday it was like that selling it.

In his previous life, he obtained his fortune as a small merchant, Jiangzhou's two hands were more accurate than scales.

All the women who bought the mugwort leaves yesterday were in disbelief, so they weighed it back at home.

Weight conforms!

Hence.

The women who had come to buy mugwort leaves again today saw Jiangzhou pick it up with their hands, but no one said what.

"Today I'll rush home to celebrate today's festival, I'll give you a little more! heart of this festival, the most important thing is excitement! "

Jiang Zhou said with a smile.

While speaking, he lowered the mouth of the nylon bag with his hands, exposing the fresh and green wormwood inside.

There were drops of crystal-clear dew hanging on it.

Emitting the unique aroma of mugwort leaves.

Mugwort leaves are a good thing!

Mugwort can be used to make rice cakes, or it can also be dried and soaked in water.

For women who give birth, carry out postpartum puerperium, and women who are coming months.

Soaking in the mugwort leaf water that's in the smoke, that's best.

Especially this wild mugwort.

For women who live in the city, they really like it.

Nowadays people who buy there want one and a half kilograms, some want two kilograms.

In the cart, half of the nylon bag had been empty in the blink of an eye.

Liu Mengli stood behind her husband and son

Actually was.

Today he said he wanted to help today, but he had one important goal.

He wanted to ascertain whether the money Jiang Zhou made was actually in the can by doing business or not.

And now.

All doubts are gone.

The burden hanging on Liu Mengli's heart finally disappeared as well.

Watching Jiang Zhou do business skillfully.

He even spoke familiarly with these women.

Liu Mengli had an unreal feeling of walking on clouds.

Somebody's...

Could it change so quickly overnight?

Or is.

this was only Jiangzhou's pleasure for a moment, and wanted to try something new?

liu Mengli's mind was in a mess.
