"Let's go have supper." Xu Erlong waved his hand and motioned for everyone to follow him.
During this time, he met a small business owner who set up a food stall in front of a chemical plant.
The other party is a factory worker, and his wife and children are from the countryside.
In order to provide some work for his wife and children, he also asked them to set up a food stall near the factory gate.
He goes against the other people's business methods and specializes in selling at night.
The workers work in three shifts. When they get off work at twelve o'clock, many of them are hungry. They eat a bowl of hot rice noodles at the factory gate or fold their hands. The feeling of satisfaction is indescribable.
Xu Erlong took Qian Ya and Yu Ping to this shop and sat down for a midnight snack.
It's not yet midnight, and the workers haven't gotten off work yet. There are not many people at the food stalls, only the steam rising from the big iron pots, bringing some fireworks to the autumn streets.
Xu Erlong, Qian Ya and Yu Ping sat down around a small square table.
"What do you want to eat?" The boss lady was wearing an apron and had a businessman's smile on her face.
Xu Erlong looked at Qian Yaya and Yu Ping.
"I want to copy my hands in threes and twos," Qian Ya said.
Yu Ping also said: "I'll also copy my hands in threes and twos."
Xu Erlong laughed: "You only know how to cheat?"
He asked the landlady: "Aside from hand noodles, rice noodles and noodles, what else is there to eat?"
"Some peanuts, some salted gourd beans." The landlady replied.
This kind of snack can be stored for a period of time and is always available. Some workers will want to drink two cups after get off work and serve it in case of emergencies.
Commonly known as drinking bean and bean wine, it refers to drinking with only some beans and the like.
"Okay, give us one as well. And three bottles of beer." Xu Erlong looked at the steaming pot over there again: "Bring us a plate of side dishes and bring it up."
The landlady was busy going, and her son came over with three bottles of beer, then turned back to look for an operation.
When you see missing teeth, why do you need surgery?
He picked up the beer bottle and put it to his mouth, intending to show everyone how to open the bottle with his teeth.
Xu Erlong looked at him speechlessly.
Is this because the teeth are not missing enough and you plan to lose a few more?
He stretched out his hand to stop the missing tooth, grabbed the beer bottle, and said with a smile: "Don't just take advantage of your youth and good teeth to bite random things."
Yu Ping followed God's lead and said, "Yes, two teeth are missing, so what else can you do?"
Unconvinced that he had missing teeth, he couldn't argue with Xu Erlong, so he had to stretch out his hand to scratch Yu Ping: "If you laugh again, huh, someday when I have money, I will get two gold teeth. The big gold teeth will blind you."
Eye."
Xu Erlong couldn't help but laugh, and seriously reminded Miss Tooth: "From now on, don't use your teeth to open bottle caps or anything like that. It's not good for your teeth. You may suffer from toothache in the future."
Missing Tooth looked at him: "Second brother, why are you nagging like an old woman? How do you know it's not good for your teeth? Will you have toothache in the future?"
Xu Erlong touched his cheek.
Can he say that he has experienced this?
When I was young, I thought it would be cool and handsome to open bottle caps with my teeth.
But when you get older, your teeth will gradually break, and various toothaches will follow, and it will be too late to regret.
Although dental implants were later developed, how can they be better than having your own original teeth?
The landlady came over with a smile, took the knife, and opened three bottles of beer.
The three of them drank Doudou wine and chatted casually.
Especially when it comes to the new leather shoe store that is about to open, Yu Ping and Qian Teeth cannot hold back their excitement.
Unexpectedly, just a month or two ago, they could only pull carts to deliver goods to the county. Later, they could only set up street stalls to sell school bags. Unexpectedly, so soon, they could also open a shop to sell leather shoes.
"Second brother, you must give me a pair of leather shoes, the kind with sharp points." After taking a few sips of beer, Miss Tooth began to make the request.
"Don't worry, I will give it to you without you having to tell me." Xu Erlong replied.
He even planned to give some small shares of the leather shoe store to the two of them.
However, thinking about the missing teeth and the fact that they were playing cards and losing money in the village, Xu Erlong thought about it and still wanted to remind them.
After all, gambling is something that many people are easily addicted to.
At first, everyone started playing around as a kid. After playing for a while, they got a taste of the high-intensity excitement of money coming and going, and they became addicted to it and couldn't stop playing.
Xu Erlong didn't want the two of them to get involved in this thing. When the time comes, no matter how big his fortune is, he won't be able to hold it back, and he may be dragged into the abyss.
"You guys had a lot of fun playing cards in the village today." Xu Erlong changed the topic to this topic.
"Oh, don't mention it, how can I be happy?" Miss Tooth complained: "During this period, I lost every day playing cards. I lost a few yuan a day, zero or even zero, and I lost dozens of yuan."
It's a few dozen dollars, equivalent to one or two months' income of an ordinary person.
Xu Erlong's tongue touched his cheek. He really wanted to hit someone, what should he do?
It was better for Yu Ping to be more sensible. Seeing that Xu Erlong's face was not good, he said to Qian Ya: "Don't play anymore."
"How can this work? I have lost so much and I still want to make up for it..." Qian Ya said.
Xu Erlong couldn't hold himself back and knocked the beer bottle heavily on the table.
The words behind the missing tooth stopped.
He turned to look at Xu Erlong: "Second brother..."
Xu Erlong sighed and said to Qian Ya: "Although small gambling is fun, it is not good to always think about playing cards to make money. This kind of mentality is not good. From now on, don't play cards again, let alone gamble money easily. Can you do it?"
Seeing Xu Erlong being so serious, I felt a little panicked because of his missing teeth.
We used to be friends who played and joked together and grew up together. Why is it that Xu Erlong's majesty is getting heavier and heavier now?
He said: "Okay, I won't play cards in the future."
Xu Erlong picked up the beer bottle, bumped it with Qian Ya and Yu Ping, and tried to slow down his tone: "You are my good friends, you can play whatever you want. But there are some bottom lines, I still say here, pornography, gambling and drugs,
I don’t want you to get contaminated with these things.”
"Definitely not." Qian Ya knew that Xu Erlong was angry, so he hurriedly tried to make amends: "I definitely won't, but what is this pornography and gambling drug?"
"You don't even know what it is, so what are you making blind promises about?" Yu Ping looked at him angrily.
Don’t blame me for missing my teeth and not understanding.
A poor boy from the countryside, for the past ten years or so, he has been working hard to fill his stomach, and no one has ever heard of pornography, gambling or drugs.
"Being a gangster, gambling, and smoking opium, do you understand this?" Xu Erlong changed his words.
After saying this, Qian Ya suddenly realized: "Second brother, don't worry, I can't act like a gangster. I'm going on a serious blind date now. If it's suitable, I'll get married."
Having said this, he blushed a little.
These days, I have made some money with Xu Erlong, and I am indeed a bit unassuming in the village with my missing teeth. I have made enough limelight.
