After listening to Lin Fan's words, Zheng Sheng fell into deep thought.
Lin Fan didn't say anything more, and continued to shout: "There are rags for sale, there are rags for sale--"
After a while, Zheng Sheng seemed to have figured it out. A calm expression appeared on his face, and he began to shout: "There are rags for sale, there are rags for sale--"
"A rag collector, I have some rags in my house, let me sell them to you." When passing by an alley, an aunt opened the door and said to Lin Fan and Zheng Sheng.
"Okay." Lin Fan stopped the car and followed the aunt into the yard, followed by Zheng Sheng.
Ten minutes later, Lin Fan and Zheng Sheng came out again.
Zheng Sheng was carrying a large roll of waste paper, and Lin Fan was holding a bowl from a folk kiln in the Qing Dynasty.
"Do you understand?" Lin Fan asked with a smile.
"Understood." Zheng Sheng nodded. He knew that Lin Fan did not really collect rags, but collected old objects under the guise of collecting rags.
Then Zheng Sheng said with some embarrassment: "But there is no salary in this business, and I have no capital."
"Don't you get paid when you work in a material recycling company? And if you receive something good and sell it to me, are you afraid that you will have no money?" Lin Fan said.
The name "Material Recycling Company" sounds good, but in fact it is just a large garbage recycling station. You can get paid by working there, and the work content is similar to what Lin Fan is doing now.
It's just that Lin Fan doesn't like the salary, and he doesn't have time to do this every day.
Although there are stains on Zheng Sheng's file, people won't dislike him when he works in a materials recycling company.
"It's okay to work in a material recycling company, but I can't bear to sell the good stuff I receive," Zheng Sheng said.
"I asked you why you are so stupid. Even if you work in a material recycling company, you can collect as many old objects as you want with that salary. If you just sell a few to me, you will have more money to collect old objects." Lin Fan said seriously.
The deceitful way.
"There's no risk in this matter, it's just some old stuff."
When Zheng Sheng thought about it, it seemed like this.
"This can be considered a job, with wages and extra income. When you can open a store like me, you can also set up one like a material recycling company. Then you can take back some old items and renovate them and sell them.
If you go out, you can still make money."
"You have to learn to draw inferences when doing things. You have to look at what everyone is lacking now. It's a market economy now, and many people in Sijiu City are not very wealthy. You get some old items, such as old furniture, old dishes, old electrical appliances, etc.
, then business will naturally pick up,”
Only then did Zheng Sheng understand Lin Fan's good intentions, and he was very moved in his heart and said, "Brother Fan, I understand, and I will do it seriously."
This idea of collecting rags is very profitable in this era, but many people are not willing to put down their dignity.
Many people in later generations became rich by collecting rags, and this business can last for a long time.
Especially in the second-hand market, the profits can be huge by refurbishing the recycled old things and then selling them.
As time goes by, many outsiders will gather in Sijiucheng.
These people left their hometowns and came to Sijiucheng just to seek development and make money.
I was certainly not rich when I first came here, so when choosing things, I tried to choose something cheap.
The second-hand market in Zhengsheng can play a big role. Although the things here are old, they are cheap.
Therefore, as long as Zheng Sheng can do it well, he will definitely be able to do it, and it cannot be underestimated.
"Okay, just take note of it. I'll go back first. Remember what I said. This business has great potential."
After speaking, Lin Fan went back after giving some instructions to Zheng Sheng.
...
On this day, after Lin Fan came out of the store, carrying some braised vegetables in his hand, he went to the courtyard to visit the uncle and aunt.
Not long after Lin Fan entered the courtyard, another man and a woman came to the courtyard. The man was Liu Haizhong's second son Liu Guangtian, and the woman was Liu Guangtian's daughter-in-law.
Liu Guangtian's daughter-in-law looked at the two temporary houses built in front of Liu Haizhong's house and said in shock: "Don't tell me, the area of these two temporary houses is no smaller than your original house."
Liu Guangtian was also a little puzzled and said: "This earthquake actually shook out a house."
"You have worked in the factory for ten years before living in a shabby house. Your parents and your mother live in four houses." Liu Guangtian's daughter-in-law said, with greed in her eyes.
"You don't know, my mother left this house to my eldest brother. My eldest brother is working out of town now and is trying to transfer to Sijiu City recently." Liu Guangtian said, with a tone of dissatisfaction with the second uncle and the second aunt. What a good thing.
They all only thought about their eldest son, not him and Liu Guangfu.
"Your eldest brother's family lives in four rooms?" Liu Guangtian's wife asked.
"My parents are not..."
As Liu Guangtian spoke, he understood the meaning of his wife's words and nodded: "I understand. What you mean is that my parents are older, right?"
"Yeah." Liu Guangtian's wife nodded.
"Okay, I know what to do." Liu Guangtian said.
At this time, the second uncle and the second aunt came back, and the second aunt was carrying a vegetable basket in her hand.
"Dad, Mom."
Liu Guangtian watched the two people coming and said hello with a smile.
"snort."
Liu Haizhong snorted coldly, put his hands behind his back, ignored the two of them, and walked directly into the room.
The second aunt saw Liu Guangtian coming back with his wife. Although she had a straight face, she still said to them: "You are here, come in quickly."
"Okay, Mom." Liu Guangtian said with a smile.
Entering the house, Liu Guangtian hurriedly poured water into Liu Haizhong, but Liu Haizhong ignored him, which made him a little embarrassed.
The second aunt didn't say anything, she just sat there quietly.
Liu Guangtian said with an embarrassed look: "Mom, I'm in the same situation as my dad. I just stepped down from that leadership position."
"I originally thought that our work unit could allocate a house, but that didn't work out later. Even the existing houses were seized by power in the past."
"So the factory decided to let me move out immediately. I had no place to go, so I thought about moving back with my wife and children tomorrow."
When the second aunt heard that Liu Guangtian was moving back with his wife and children, she was a little interested, but Liu Haizhong snorted coldly: "Don't listen to his farts. If you want to move back, there's no way."
When Liu Guangtian heard Liu Haizhong say this, his face became a little uglier, and he said: "No, what do you mean? Why is it impossible? You can't be so partial. It's not certain whether my eldest brother can come back?"
"Besides, I won't crowd you, I can just live in the temporary building outside."
Hearing what Liu Guangtian said, Liu Haizhong sneered: "What did you say at the beginning? When you got married, you said you never wanted to enter this family again in your life."
Liu Guangtian frowned and said: "Why are you arguing with me like this? It was then and now. Besides, you are both over sixty now. Can you do it without someone around to take care of you?"
At this time, Liu Guangfu also came back with his wife.
"Second brother."
Liu Guangfu put down the salute in his hand and said to Liu Guangtian with a smile: "My parents don't need you to take care of them. My team will be here soon. I will move back today."
When the second aunt heard Liu Guangfu say this, she was surprised and said: "Guangfu, what are you doing?"
Liu Guangfu said with a smile: "Didn't I have time to discuss it with you two elders? I barged in and had a falling out with my mother-in-law and parents. They didn't want me to live there, and I was too lazy to serve them."
"No, my wife and I have decided to abandon the dark side and join the bright side. We will go directly to my parents and be responsible for taking care of you until we leave this world."
Liu Guangfu's daughter-in-law even pinched the second aunt's shoulders diligently, but she was thrown away by the second aunt.
Liu Haizhong said angrily: "I can't die yet, so I don't need you to serve me."
Liu Guangtian said with an ugly expression: "Comrade Liu Guangfu, it's not your turn in terms of seniority. Why are you making trouble here? Didn't you see that I'm back?"
"The purpose of my coming back is to take care of and be filial to my parents."
When Liu Guangfu heard this, he said with a disdainful smile: "Second brother, I said you have no chance, and your parents don't like you."
"Why do you say that my parents don't like me? What's the matter, do they still like you?" Liu Guangtian suddenly became angry and shouted loudly.
Liu Haizhong had a headache due to the quarrel between the two brothers Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu, so he rubbed his eyebrows.
"I'm not as good as my elder brother, but I'm better than you. How about letting your parents make the decision?" Liu Guangfu chuckled.
Liu Guangtian immediately looked at Liu Haizhong and the second aunt, and asked: "Dad, Mom, tell me, which one of us do you like?"
Liu Haizhong slammed the table angrily and roared: "I don't want any of them, get out of here."
Hearing what Liu Haizhong said, Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu were both a little dissatisfied. They were Liu Haizhong's sons after all, so how could they treat their own sons like this?
Liu Guangtian said coldly: "Dad, since we were little, we have asked you to give me a beating every now and then. Until I went to work, you said you would give me a big slap on my ear, and you and I would look at each other.
Did you give it back?"
"Do you dare?" Liu Haizhong said disdainfully.
"I don't dare, of course I don't dare, because I couldn't beat you at that time, now you try to touch me." Liu Guangtian pointed at Liu Haizhong's nose and yelled.
The second aunt quickly stood up, grabbed Liu Guangtian's clothes and said, "Guangtian, why did you say such disrespectful words to your father?"
"You have nothing to do with what I say." Liu Guangtian immediately shook the second aunt away.
Liu Guangfu's daughter-in-law hurriedly pulled Liu Guangfu and said: "Guangfu, Guangtian is not filial, hurry up."
Liu Guangfu immediately understood what his wife meant, pointed at Liu Guangtian and said, "Second brother, how can you treat our mother like this?"
After saying that, he rushed over and gave Liu Guangtian a big slap on the ear.
"You dare to hit me."
Liu Guangtian became furious and kicked Liu Guangfu. Their wives also rushed to help, and the four of them fought directly.
Liu Haizhong saw this scene and had no intention of breaking up the fight. He went up and kicked Liu Guangtian. However, he was old after all, so the kick failed to do anything to Liu Guangtian. Instead, he fell to the ground.
"Old man, old man."
The second aunt saw Liu Haizhong fall and hurriedly ran to Liu Haizhong, but Liu Haizhong had already passed out. She cried and shouted: "You two bastards, stop fighting, come and see your father."
However, Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu ignored it at all and continued to fight there.
Such a loud movement alerted everyone else in the courtyard.
Lin Fan and others were chatting and heard the noise.
"It's the second uncle's house, there seems to be a fight." He Yuzhu was outside, and he heard it most clearly, and he immediately ran towards the backyard.
Lin Fan originally didn't want to pay attention, but He Yuzhu had already ran over, so he couldn't ignore it and followed him.
When Lin Fan and He Yuzhu arrived at Liu Haizhong's house, many people were already watching, but they were just watching the show and had no intention of going up to stop them.
The first uncle arrived a little earlier than Lin Fan and He Yuzhu, and shouted at Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu: "Why are you two fighting? Didn't you see that your father has passed out?"
Hearing the uncle's scolding, Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu also stopped, but they had no intention of helping Liu Haizhong.
"Xiaofan, your car is outside, help take the second uncle to the hospital." The first uncle said.
"Although Liu Haizhong is not a thing, after all, people's lives are at stake, and I have to save them. But you have to let them bring the money. I can't send them to the hospital. In the end, I have to pay for their medical expenses." Lin Fan
said.
Once the medical expenses are paid, you will definitely not be able to get them back.
Although Lin Fan did not lack the money, he did not want to take advantage of Liu Haizhong's family.
The first man looked at Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu and scolded: "What are you doing standing still? Go get the money quickly."
"I have no money." Liu Guangtian refused directly. He would definitely not pay for this money.
"I don't have any money either." Liu Guangfu also said.
"Why did Lao Liu give birth to two of you bastard sons?" The first man cursed angrily. If he had such a son, he would definitely slap him to death.
"The old man is dying. I'm going to get the money. Please help me send him to the hospital." The second aunt cried loudly. Liu Haizhong was her god. If Liu Haizhong died, her sky would collapse.
.
The first man then looked at He Yuzhu and said, "Zhuzhu, come here and help me get Lao Liu into the car."
"Okay." He Yuzhu nodded, and then he and Mr. He went over to help.
"Sister-in-law, we can't eat today. Let's get together some other time." Lin Fan said to Qin Huairu who was coming from behind.
"No problem." Qin Huairu nodded.
"Xiao Fan, let's go." He Yuzhu had already carried the second uncle on his back.
"Auntie, come with us." Lin Fan was about to leave. When he saw Auntie, he suddenly remembered something and said.
"Am I going too?" The eldest mother was a little confused.
"I'll explain to you later. Send the bangs over first." Lin Fan said.
"Okay." The eldest mother nodded.
He Yuzhu carried Liu Haizhong on his back to the car. The first man, the first mother and the second aunt also got on the car. Including Lin Fan, there were six people in total. Although it was a bit crowded, they could still fit in the car.
The car drove very fast, and in less than ten minutes, we arrived at the hospital.
He Yuzhu carried the second uncle on his back and went in. The second aunt followed closely. The first uncle and the first aunt also wanted to follow, but were stopped by Lin Fan.
"Master, mom, don't worry. I know some medical skills. Liu Haizhong just fainted from anger. He can recover after staying in the hospital for at most two days." Lin Fan said.
"Auntie, I suggest you get a heart check-up."
"Should I go for a check-up?" the eldest mother asked.
"If you trust me, go check it out. It won't cost much anyway."
Lin Fan said that he remembered that in the original work, the eldest mother died of a heart attack. The eldest mother was quite a nice person, and it would be a good thing if he could save her life.
After hearing this, the eldest mother did not speak, but looked at the eldest uncle, waiting for him to make a decision.
"Anyway, we have already come to the hospital, so let's go and get checked." The uncle said. Seeing that Lin Fan was so serious about what he said, he had better go get checked. Even if there was nothing wrong, he could feel at ease.
"Yeah." The eldest mother nodded.
After the first uncle and the first aunt went for a check-up, Lin Fan didn't wait here and rode back directly.
Several days passed in the blink of an eye.
Yi Zhonghaijia.
The aunt drank a bowl of cooled Chinese medicine. The bitter taste of the Chinese medicine made her frown. After finishing the drink, she took a mouthful of sugar and the bitter taste in her mouth slowly faded away.
"Thanks to Xiaofan this time, otherwise I might leave one day." The eldest mother said with some fear. Xiaofan asked her to go for a check-up that day, and it was found that she had a heart disease. However, this disease cannot be cured, and she can only
Adjust slowly.
"Find an opportunity to thank him properly." The first man said.
"I want to thank him properly and invite him to my house for a meal someday." The aunt said. Seeing the uncle holding a piece of paper and reading it, she couldn't help but ask: "What are you looking at?"
?”
"This is a folk remedy for headaches. When I went to get the medicine today, I asked Lao Litou. This folk prescription happened to cure Lao Liu's disease, so I grabbed a pair of medicine for him and sent it to him later.
" said the old man.
"He had just been discharged from the hospital. When he saw Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu occupying the two temporary rooms, he was so angry that he lay down on the bed." The eldest mother sighed.
"He asked for it. I told him and Lao Yan a long time ago not to take advantage. You said it's hard for others to tell how much land they occupy in the courtyard. But I followed their example. Now the front yard and the back yard have become
What's it like?" the old man said.
"It's a good thing that the old Yan family didn't make any noise because of the house." The eldest mother said.
"What's the fuss about in their family? Their family tradition is all about scheming. Whoever plots against whom will suffer the consequences will come back again next time." said the uncle.
"We don't have children. If we had children, we would definitely not be like them." The eldest mother said.
"Then who would you like to score? The children of Zhuzi's family and the four children of Xiaofan's family are very good." The first man said.
"I think so. Their children are very polite and call me every time they see me." When the eldest mother mentioned several children, a smile appeared on her face.
"Yes, out of all the children in the hospital, the children from Zhuzi and Xiaofan's families are the most lovable." The first man nodded, agreeing with what the first mother said.
"Of the people in the hospital, the only ones we can count on in the future are Zhu Zhu and Huai Ru."
The eldest mother smiled, then suddenly remembered something, and said, "Yes, Xiaofan was heartbroken by the people in the yard, and he probably won't come back."
The first man nodded slightly, and then said: "I'm going to give this headache medicine to Old Liu."
"Come back early for dinner." The eldest mother said.
