Chapter 2 The World Cup is about to start

The International Trade City in Spring City is very large and covers everything, including clothing, mattresses, toys, hardware, etc. It takes an hour to go from start to finish.

The shops here are not only mainly engaged in wholesale and retail, but also retail. It is also a good place for shopping on weekends.

However, on weekday mornings, the flow of people in the Trade City is relatively small. After all, not many people like to go shopping early in the morning. Nowadays, most of the people who come to the Trade City are staff.

There is no need to have your temperature taken when entering or leaving the Trade City, and pedestrians do not have masks on their faces, which makes Zhou Dongsheng a little uncomfortable.

Xu Yun took Zhou Dongsheng to the two shops 1102-1103 on the third floor of the Textile District, took out the key and opened the rolling shutter.

Zhou Dongsheng opened the door, Xu Yun turned on the lights in the store, and it was open for business. Then each person took a broom to clean the store and that was it.

Xu Yun took out a ten-dollar bill from the counter and handed it to Zhou Dongsheng, "Dongsheng, go buy something for breakfast. I want custard buns with soy milk."

He looked like he was used to it, which showed that he frequently called on Zhou Dongsheng, and his identity as a tool was clearly revealed.

Zhou Dongsheng didn't have to vent his anger on a little girl. Even if he was reborn, he was just an eighteen-year-old nobody at the moment, and he happened to be hungry too.

"Well done, Sister Xu." Zhou Dongsheng took the money and walked out. He felt very happy to revisit his old place. His eighteen-year-old body was as light as flying, and his whole body seemed to have endless energy.

In a few steps, we walked to the small supermarket outside the Trade City to buy breakfast, 2 yuan of custard buns, 1 yuan of soy milk, 1 yuan of tea eggs, 2 yuan of meat buns...

After Zhou Dongsheng finished the purchase, he spent exactly 10 yuan. He took out the money from his pocket and handed it to the boss. He was still a little uncomfortable, but in the past two years, scan-code payment will be fully bloomed.

This also made Zhou Dongsheng sigh with emotion. Fortunately, it was not difficult to adapt in 2014, but it would have been a bit uncomfortable in 2004.

The most important thing is that my eight-year-old self couldn't do anything except study hard.

While thinking about it, he also played with the Apple 4th generation mobile phone in his hand. Zhou Dongsheng remembered that this was the first mobile phone he bought, and it was a second-hand product.

I bought it from a relative. Because the appearance of Tuhao Gold 5s made him eager to replace it with a new one, he sold the phone cheaply and spent a few hundred yuan.

After getting his dream smartphone, the first thing Zhou Dongsheng did was download Fruit Ninja and have a great time playing it.

Before that, he could only watch others play, and only occasionally had the chance to have sex.

Recalling this week, Dongsheng had a smile of reminiscence on his lips. Later, even if he used the latest 5G mobile phone, he would not be as happy as this second-hand mobile phone.

Although it was second-hand, Zhou Dongsheng cherished his beloved toy very much. However, the mobile phone was stolen after he did not stay with Zhou Dongsheng for a long time.

When he thought about this, Zhou Dongsheng was suddenly stunned, because his cell phone was stolen right here in the International Trade City.

A group of people pretended to enter the store to look at the goods, and they also brought a pregnant woman with them. The method was very clever. The person looking at the goods diverted their attention, and then the pregnant woman took the opportunity to take the mobile phone on the counter.

Not only Zhou Dongsheng's, but also the Samsung mobile phone that the boss Deng Bin had put on the counter to charge was also taken away.

The next day, the frustrated boss changed his money to a local tycoon, and he returned to the old age. He tossed and turned for many nights...

If we encounter this group of people again in this life, we must bring them to justice!

Zhou Dongsheng thought bitterly, returned to the store and handed the breakfast to Xu Yun, found a stool and sat at the door of the store, ate the tea eggs and meat buns in a few mouthfuls, and sipped the soy milk happily.

There were almost no guests in the leisurely morning, and Zhou Dongsheng was very happy and used his mobile phone to search for some information about the World Cup.

The 2014 World Cup will be held in Brazil. The opening ceremony will be held at 2:15 tomorrow morning, and the first game will not start until 4 o'clock, with Brazil playing Croatia.

At that time, the theme song "weareone" will be resounded all over the world, becoming one of the annual divine songs in the heat of the World Cup, and resounding throughout the streets and alleys of the Trade City.

Zhou Dongsheng knew nothing about the sport of football. He had never been exposed to this sport since he was a child. After all, finding a field to play football on was much more difficult than finding a backboard.

After doing a little homework and using the wifi in the store to download the regular sports betting software, everything is ready.

Although Zhou Dongsheng does not understand football and there are not many teams that can be named in the World Cup, it does not prevent him from using his foresight to make money.

After the preparations were completed, the only thing Zhou Dongsheng could do was to pray, praying that if he flaps his wings as a butterfly, he would not stir up a gust of wind in the tropical football kingdom, and the wind would be too strong and the ball would be blown away...

"Are you the boss or am I the boss? Next time you stay up so late again, just pack up your things and go back to your hometown." A cursing voice came from the corner of the street.

Zhou Dongsheng looked over and saw a group of people walking this way.

A tall, slim man with a height of 1.7 meters and a somewhat bookish look wearing glasses cursed, pointing at a boy who was half a head shorter and with a hint of unruliness on his face.

Next to her was a fat woman who was about 1.6 meters tall. Her dress was bulging and she was carrying a purple handbag.

The one wearing glasses is naturally the boss Deng Bin, the one being scolded is Qiu Zijian, Zhou Dongsheng’s brother in the upper bunk, and next to him is the proprietress Xu Lei, Xu Yun’s sister.

"Good morning, brother Bing, good morning, sister-in-law." Zhou Dongsheng said hello, while Xu Yun, who came out following the sound, snickered on the side.

Other people on the street have long been accustomed to it. They come here every two days. Even if you are not used to it, you are used to it.

"Look at Dongsheng, this is his attitude towards work. If your father hadn't asked me to ask for your help, I would have sent you back a long time ago." Deng Bin said angrily.

Qiu Zijian disagreed, "I don't have much work to do. Besides, there is nothing to do in the morning. I just sit in the store."

"You talk back? If I were your father, I would whip you right now." Deng Bin cursed again and walked into the store.

Qiu Zijian found a stool and sat aside. He looked like a pig who was not afraid of being scalded by boiling water. He took out a pack of cigarettes from his trouser pocket, skillfully took out one and lit it, puffing away the smoke in a particularly cool manner.

Seeing Zhou Dongsheng a little greedy, he subconsciously touched his trouser pocket and then remembered that he didn't have the habit of smoking now.

After thinking about it, I resisted the urge to have one. Every old smoker knows very well that smoking is harmful to others and to oneself.

But if you want to quit after being addicted, it is not as simple as saying. This thing is just like a craft job. Once you finish it, you want to quit. Every time, it will be the next time.

It's a rare chance to have another chance. Let's quit smoking first in this life and don't let down this young and healthy body again.

After lunch, Zhou Dongsheng and Qiu Zijian started to get busy, packing and packing the goods ordered by customers one by one, and pulling them to the parking lot on a pallet truck.

Zhou Dongsheng and Qiu Zijian then rode electric bicycles to transport these large and small packages to major logistics offices for delivery, and then went to warehouses to stock up and replenish the goods to stores.

It was all simple and tiring work. When I returned to the Trade City, the famous saxophone solo version of "Going Home" BGM was already playing in the Trade City.

When people shopping hear this song, they know it is about to close, and when people at work hear this song, they know it is time to get off work.

By the time the two of them returned to the store, Deng Bin had already pulled down the store's rolling shutter.

Sister-in-law Xu Lei and the two sisters stood aside playing with their mobile phones, listening to the sound effects and just running every day.

"You're back? We're going to Guozai's house for dinner tonight. You drive your electric car there and we'll go buy groceries." Deng Bin explained.

"Wait a minute, Brother Bing, I have something to tell you. I want to get two thousand yuan first." Only then did Zhou Dongsheng think of business.

"What are you taking the money for? Let your sister-in-law transfer it to you later." Deng Bin asked casually, but out of trust in Zhou Dongsheng, he agreed without saying a word.

After all, it was said that the money was taken, but it was actually Zhou Dongsheng's own salary, and it was just left here for him to keep for safekeeping.

"It's urgent." Zhou Dongsheng didn't explain and smiled shyly.

"Then I also want five hundred." Qiu Zijian also said excitedly.

"Where do you still have money? Think about how much you have spent. It's gone this month. Just wait until next month." Sister-in-law Xu Lei said angrily.

After saying that, the group of people turned around and walked towards the parking lot. Qiu Zijian was not annoyed and put his arm around Zhou Dongsheng's shoulders with a smile.

"Brother Sheng, why do you take so much money? Why don't you give me five hundred yuan and I'll pay you back next month?"

"No way, my money is of great use, let's go and have dinner at Brother Guo's place."

Of course, Zhou Dongsheng used the two thousand yuan to test the waters first. Of course, Zhou Dongsheng chose the regular sports lottery software.

From the regular sports betting software, Zhou Dongsheng already knew the odds of tonight's game.

If Brazil wins alone, it will be 3 times, if it is a draw, it will be 05 times, and if Croatia wins alone, it will be 14 times. After all, they are the host country, so the chance of an upset in the first game is low.

The odds of Brazil 3-1 Croatia are 2 times.
