Shen Lin looked up and saw this young man wearing a gray tunic suit with a patch on the cuffs, looking at him with a hint of expectation.
This young man's clothes didn't fit him at first glance. They seemed a bit too big.
Combined with the patches on the clothes, Shen Lin's first judgment was that the clothes did not belong to the young man in front of him at all.
Wearing clothes that were not his own, and looking polite yet a little timid, Shen Lin quickly determined the identity of this person.
This is a college student from a rural area.
"What's the matter with you?" Shen Lin asked with a smile on his face.
"Boss, I see you've been very busy all day. Do you need any help? I... I'm a college student who has just been admitted. This is my school badge. I... I only need 50 cents a day."
When the young man talks about money, his face turns red.
If he had no other choice, he would not be shameless enough to look for work. In fact, when he came from home, it was difficult for his family to give him more support.
After reporting in, he only had a few dollars left in his hand.
Although the school gives me meal stamps, so eating is not a big problem, but I still need to buy a toothbrush and a towel.
"What's your name?" Shen Lin said with a smile.
"My name is Lu Dongsheng, and the sun is rising slowly." The young man rubbed his hands and said with a hint of embarrassment.
Looking at the uneasy young man, Shen Lin suddenly smiled and said, "Has your Sheng been born before?"
The young man was stunned for a moment. He did not expect that this small boss, who was about the same grade as himself, would actually know about his name change when he was talking to him.
"Yes, when I was in junior high school, I felt that the name of someone born in winter was not good, so I changed the name of my birth name to "rising". Lu Dongsheng said this with a trace of blush on his face.
Shen Lin smiled and said, "Do you have classes these days?"
"No, the main thing is to get familiar with the school. I heard that classes will not officially begin until September." Lu Dongsheng raised his head and said.
Shen Lin waved to Lu Dongsheng and said, "Well, I'm going to set up stalls in different schools these days. If you are sure you have time, you can follow me."
"Salary? I'll give you one yuan a day."
Lu Dongsheng was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that he only had a salary of fifty cents, but the young man in front of him would actually give him one yuan.
"Thank you, boss." Lu Dongsheng hurried over to help Shen Lin pack his things.
Looking at this sensible young man with a hint of inferiority complex, Shen Lin smiled and said nothing.
He needs manpower now, and if Lu Dongsheng can take the initiative to find him, he will naturally be willing to help.
As for the salary of one yuan, it was actually quite a lot. After all, the salary of formal workers at that time was only thirty or forty yuan a month.
With the help of Lu Dongsheng, Shen Lin quickly packed up his things. After he made an appointment with Lu Dongsheng for a meeting tomorrow, he pedaled a tricycle and drove towards the market with a puff of black smoke. go.
While the market has not yet cleared up, Shen Lin wants to stock up on the goods to be sold tomorrow.
They were all regular customers who had already negotiated with each other. Shen Lin was very familiar with the business and had all the goods ready before dark.
When Shen Lin pulled the two large buckets of goods into the yard where he lived, it was already completely dark, and the workers working in various factories also returned home in twos and threes.
When going up the stairs, Shen Lin kept saying hello to his neighbors and was still in good spirits. But when he sat on the stool at home, he felt a huge fatigue coming over him quickly, and his upper and lower eyelids were even more tired. A quick fight.
Shen Lin, who was interested in cooking, comforted himself by saying that he would take a break to cook. However, when he was awakened by the sound of cooking in the kitchen, not only was he covered with a small blanket, but the only table fan in the house was also on him. The wind was blowing gently not far away.
Shen Lin stood up and found Lu Xiaorong cooking in the kitchen.
"Xiao Rong, go and have a rest. I'll fry this dish." As Shen Lin spoke, he walked into the kitchen.
Lu Xiaorong looked at Shen Lin, who looked a little haggard under the dim light, and said softly: "It's almost done. Wash your hands. After I cook this dish, we'll eat."
When Lu Xiaorong said this, Shen Lin felt that his stomach was growling. Although the sesame seed cakes with beef at noon were more quenching his hunger, he had already digested these things after an afternoon of busy work.
Stir-fried rapeseed with oil residue, two cut salted goose eggs, white noodle soup and a few steamed buns from yesterday made Shen Lin feel like his stomach was rebelling.
"I was so busy today that I forgot to go to the market to buy some good vegetables." Shen Lin picked up a piece of rapeseed.
The rape itself is tender enough, and it tastes better after being stir-fried with lard and oil residue. Shen Lin took a bite and felt an explosion in his heart.
Lu Xiaorong said: "This is already good, what else should I buy? Shen Lin, let me tell you, we can't be too extravagant when it comes to food."
Although Shen Lin would smile when he heard about other things, but when it came to eating, he would never do what Lu Xiaorong said.
If you don't eat well, aren't you looking for trouble for yourself? What's more, after this era, it is not easy to eat pure natural things.
"Okay, I understand." Shen Lin's agreement was without any sincerity.
Lu Xiaorong took two bites of the food and asked casually: "How is your business today?"
"It should be pretty good. I sold out all the stuff I brought. I was just too busy at the time and forgot how much money I made." When Shen Lin said this, he suddenly thought that when he was dozing off, he felt as if he had forgotten something.
Now that I think about it, I forgot to count the money I earned today.
Lu Xiaorong said: "Just wait and count."
After the two of them had eaten, Shen Lin insisted on washing the dishes by himself. Although Lu Xiaorong also insisted on washing the dishes by himself, Shen Lin took the lead in the end.
After washing the dishes and walking out of the kitchen, Shen Lin saw Lu Xiaorong reading a book. He didn't say much and took out a bag with a red five-star printed on it from the house.
"What are you doing with the bag?" Lu Xiaorong looked at the bulging bag and asked in confusion.
Shen Lin did not speak, but dumped his bag towards the small dining table. There was a crash and a pile of colorful bills fell on the table.
There was also a pile of steel coins that jumped rapidly on the table, and a few steel coins even fell directly under the table.
Lu Xiaorong's eyes widened!
She had lived for more than 20 years, and this was the first time she saw so much money. At this time, her first feeling was that everything in front of her was not real.
Your home is not a bank, so how can you have so much money?
"This...where did this come from?" Lu Xiaorong felt that when she said these words again, her voice was trembling a little, and her tongue was a little dry.
Shen Lin was also shocked by the small mountain-sized pile of money. Although he had been stuffing money into his parcel, he did not expect that when the money he earned poured out, it would be so astonishing.
Looking at Lu Xiaorong who looked surprised and disbelieving, Shen Lin took a breath and said: "These are all earned today. In fact, they are not much. Most of them are small notes of one or two yuan."
Just as Shen Lin was talking, several ten-dollar bills were suddenly blown out of the money pile by the wind.
"Let's count first, how much is this, right?" Shen Lin quickly changed the subject without waiting for Lu Xiaorong to speak.
