When the sky turned from pitch black to deep blue, the stars were still blinking.
Ning Weimin had already carried his big bag, got on the bus, and headed straight to the garbage dump in the eastern suburbs.
But it's different from every day in the past.
That day, when he smelled the stinky smell again and handed the watch to the "general" in public, it aroused unprecedented enthusiasm among the blind people.
Not for anything else, but mainly because no one thought that he could actually buy the watch.
To be honest, "General" didn't sleep well at all last night.
Despite his generous words, he was still very excited in his heart.
Ever since Ning Weimin left with the copper yesterday, he began to regret and worry.
It wasn't until I saw Ning Weimin again this morning that my heart felt at ease.
Of course, the scene that surprised him the most.
It must have been a dream come true, seeing with my own eyes the moment Ning Weimin took out his watch from his pocket.
Under the sunlight, the "Peacock" brand watch shone brightly, which almost made him faint.
He couldn't wait to take it in his hand, and then looked at it over and over again.
That's exciting.
I rubbed it and put it to my ear to listen to the sound. I was so happy that I was speechless.
It’s really more beautiful than if someone got a gold Rolex watch forty years later.
Only after Ning Weimin's reminder did he come to his senses and put the watch on his wrist solemnly.
It is conceivable that even he is like this, how can other blind people be so greedy?
Many "heroes" witnessed this swagger, and no one had the heart to work.
So all at once, Wuyang poured down from all the "hilltops".
They either surrounded the "general" enviously, asked what brand the watch was, and praised it endlessly.
Or he was pestering Ning Weimin to ask how much the watch cost and how he bought it.
Even the two blind men who asked him to bring daily necessities yesterday did not bother to check the quality of their own goods.
He kept pulling Ning Weimin and strongly demanded to buy them both a watch.
As a result, as soon as they started this initiative, there was almost a response.
Almost all the blind people were excited, making noises and clamoring, insisting on turning watch buying into a group participation activity.
There is no doubt that this is a great thing that Ning Weimin can only dream of!
He said in his heart that what Old Man Kang had predicted was really accurate.
This first business really had a demonstration effect and brought him new business.
But then again, it was great, but he really couldn't agree to it right away.
Because he knows very well that the harder something is to get, the more people want it.
If he wants to get more benefits from it, he must first whet the appetite of these bastards.
In addition, he also knew very well that the "general" might not be happy with this.
Because these days, people buy watches not just to tell the time, but also to satisfy their personal vanity.
"General" is the leader of the blind people and the first person to buy a watch.
Of course, you don’t want others to buy after you.
Then how can he show that he is different?
Therefore, if you want to do this business, you must first stretch yourself, and you must not offend the "general" because of it.
So... what should we do?
Hey, didn't Old Man Kang teach him yesterday that he must be seen as reliable?
From his own understanding, what the old man said about "something like that" was actually "pretending".
That is to say, "Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills."
who is he?
That's someone who has watched Stephen Chow's "The King of Comedy".
Of course, an actor has the basic qualities.
So I got into the performance state smoothly.
He deliberately pretended that he couldn't stand the blind liuzi's harassment, and with a bitter look on his face, he felt wronged on the way to the "general".
It probably means that the watch he bought for "General" actually cost ten yuan more than the official price in the store just because he didn't have industrial coupons.
Moreover, the amount of copper he took away yesterday was not that substantial, and the money given to him was less than expected.
This way, in order to buy this watch, he spent almost fifteen yuan on it.
Even though he was buying things for the "general", he was willing to do so without any hesitation.
But why should others want him to suffer such a big loss?
Besides, if everyone wants him to buy a watch, he can't afford the loss.
So he begged the "general" to "justice" for him.
Hey, the "general" definitely benefited from these words.
He also mistakenly thought that he had taken advantage of it, and was extremely happy.
So he kept patting Ning Weimin on the shoulder and told him not to worry.
But the blind people are all afraid of the interference of the "general" and are a little impatient.
Especially the two people who were the first to propose buying a watch just now couldn't wait to shout.
One took the initiative to make conditions for Ning Weimin.
"Can't we give you more copper? I'll give you five more catties, no, six more catties..."
Another begged "General".
"Brother, how can we compare with you? I didn't say that I wanted to take advantage of this kid. Don't listen to his nonsense..."
With that said, he opened the "Beihai" brand cigarettes that Ning Weimin had just bought and gave a full box to "General".
Just like that, Ning Weimin did a little trick and made everyone spin around.
Instead of stopping the matter, the "general" took the initiative to mediate between the two parties.
However, the price of the watch has been driven up due to the impatience of the blind people.
So Ning Weimin got what he wanted.
When he returned that day, not counting his own output, he took away a full fifty kilograms of picked copper.
You don’t need to do detailed calculations to know that you will definitely earn more from this business today than you did yesterday.
And this is just a watch.
There were more than a dozen people waiting in line at the back.
So even if he had to face the blank stares from the conductor and passengers again, Ning Weimin didn't care at all.
Even on the bus, I thought about how I would be able to earn a hundred yuan a day for a long time in the future.
And this one hundred yuan a day can be converted into a full page of monkey tickets.
He felt as happy as if he had drunk alcohol.
What happened to rag picking?
A thousand rivers return to the sea, as long as you can make money.
The form of labor is useless, the key lies in the value of labor!
Hey, just by me, with little effort and some scrap metal, we can earn several months' wages of ordinary people in one day.
Who looks down on whom?
If I really include the monkey ticket I bought, I would have earned over 20 million in the future in one day!
Hey, it’s like a legend to say the least. Even I admire myself!
Ning Weimin was so proud that he hummed a tune and returned home happily.
When I got off the bus, I was impatient to go home and wanted to tell Master about my success again today.
He didn't know where he got the strength from, but he didn't even take a break and just took the copper back to the scrapyard.
After selling out the copper, he turned around and ran to the trust store.
This time I spent 70 yuan to buy an old Pearl brand watch.
Then he took the medicine according to the prescription and sent it to the "morning clock" to have the watchmaker help refurbish it.
Next, I went to the post office to buy stamps.
But so far, it's a little different from yesterday.
Because Ning Weimin didn't buy anything else to eat or drink. Instead, he took advantage of the time when his watch was being refurbished and went home directly.
For no other reason than because I sold twenty yuan more today and my consumption method can be upgraded.
He wanted to invite Kang Shude to go to a restaurant with him and celebrate.
Needless to say, when Ning Weimin saw Kang Shude, he started to talk about everything that happened that day.
After placing the purchased stamps in the small box made of camphor wood, he said with a smile that he would not eat at home that night and would eat outside.
Unexpectedly, it was a good thing, but Kang Shude shook his head and said that he was burning buns, and taught him that a good life should not be passed away in just one meal.
I'm quite worried that he won't be able to stop spending money lavishly.
I'm afraid that in addition to buying monkey tickets, he will also have the problem of being drunk today.
Fortunately, Ning Weimin was good at coaxing people and quickly issued a statement, so this matter did not really ruin the fun.
"Master, why don't we just do this as a routine? This is my intention, just to make up for a more formal apprenticeship banquet."
"Yesterday's meal was really miserable. If I sent you away with pig head meat and Laobaigan, I would be so embarrassed when I think about it in the future. At the very least, I have to treat you to a roast duck."
"Hey, I've thought about it. Don't be in a hurry to come back when you're full and drunk. I'll take you to take a bath when you feel better. Let's make a pot of tea and talk about the past together.
Son."
"As for tomorrow, let's live as we are, okay? Don't worry, it's just a meal, I won't turn into a dandy..."
In this way, when Kang Shude thought about it, the craftsmanship of the famous store was really tempting, and he really wanted to take a bath.
I no longer persisted.
"Forget it, it's rare that you have such a heart, so I'll give you some face today. It's for good luck, 'Ju De Quan'. It's fate that we, father and son, are together."
The people of Ningwei were happy.
"Yes, Master, let me lead the way and let's walk."
This is called, roast duck, I have been thinking about you day and night, and today my wish came true.
