Chapter 43 Worth over 100 million, come back to help Dad sell potatoes
The next morning, Chen Fan said hello to Chen Meng,
Then continue on your way.
At around three o'clock in the afternoon, the two finally returned to Tongcheng County.
Chen Fan's hometown is not far from the county seat, only three or four kilometers away.
Although every village is now connected to roads, there are no buses to the villages.
Chen Fan asked Su Ruzhen to find a hotel in the county to stay in and wait for news from him at any time.
Then he hailed a motorcycle and drove home.
"Fan University is back."
The motorcycle driver is also from the same village, his name is Er Mazi.
When he was in his thirties, he didn't go out to work, so he opened a canteen at the intersection of the county town and the village.
While selling things, I also deliver goods to customers.
Sitting on Er Mazi's motorcycle, Chen Fan paid attention to everything in front of him.
Tongcheng is still the same Tongcheng, but he is no longer the Chen Fan he used to be.
The feeling of coming back this time is very different, and I have a different feeling in my heart than before.
The fields beside the road are overgrown with thatch, and the former farmland has long been abandoned.
Nowadays, very few people are farming. Young people have gone out to work or moved into the city.
Only the lonely old people are left.
Back in the village, Chen Fan paid fifteen yuan and Er Mazi turned around and went back.
Chen Fan came to the door of his house with his bag on his back, "Dad, Mom——"
My mother heard the sound and came out of the house, "Chen Fan, are you back?"
Chen Fan put the bag home and asked, "Where's Dad?"
"He went to the county seat today."
"Oh, what about my sister?"
"Your sister went to a classmate's house and hasn't come back yet."
Looking at everything at home, Chen Fan had a lot of thoughts in his heart.
The family's house is still the old adobe house. Although it has two floors, it is extremely old.
Everyone has built small villas. The floors in Chen Fan's house are all dirt, and they haven't even put cement on them.
Chen Fan looked at his family's poor family environment and wondered how to talk to his parents.
After a while, there was a sound of car horns at the door.
Chen Fan walked out and saw that it was his sister Chen Juan who had returned in a classmate's car.
Four male and female classmates came back with her.
The male classmate parked a 50% new Hyundai on the side of the road and showed off the key in his hand.
Seeing this, my mother quickly called out to several of Chen Juan’s classmates.
"Brother, are you back?"
Three classmates also sat at the door. Mom poured tea and brought out some melon seeds.
The male classmate who was driving put the car keys on the table and asked Chen Fan, "How did you get in? Did you walk?"
"Why don't you tell us in advance so we can pick you up."
Chen Fan said no, I'll take a motorcycle.
"oh!"
"Your place is a bit remote and there are no buses."
"It's much more convenient over there. Almost every household has a private car."
The girl next to me said, "How can I compare with your village?"
"Your village is relatively wealthy in the county."
The other two boys also responded, "That's right, it's good for him. Even if he doesn't get into college, he will do better than others in the future."
Chen Fan had no intention of chatting with these little brats and went back to his room.
He came to the back of the yard, where pigs, chickens and ducks were raised.
The environment is particularly bad and there are many mosquitoes.
Now Chen Fan only has one thought in his mind: how to make his parents accept this reality?
In other words, let them move to the city.
It was almost five o'clock, and Lao Chen came back from the county town on his bicycle.
It happened that several of Chen Juan's classmates also left. Chen Fan took Lao Chen's bag and said, "Dad, why did you come back?"
Lao Chen was a little happy to see his son, "You're back? I'm going to the county town with me tomorrow to sell potatoes."
Chen Fan nodded repeatedly, "Good."
When the mother saw that her son was back, she specially killed a chicken. In the evening, the family was busy and happily eating.
Chen Fan asked tentatively, "Mom, Dad, our house is too old, and the ecological environment is also poor. Why don't you rent a shop in the city and start a small business like them?"
“Maybe I’ll have the opportunity to buy a house in the city in the future.”
When Lao Chen heard this, he frowned and said, "In the future, you can buy a house in the city by yourself. We two old guys will live here."
Mom also said, "Yes, when you graduate from college, your family will try to find a way to help you make a down payment."
"Girls nowadays won't get married if they don't have a house in the city."
After saying that, she glanced at Chen Juan and said, "You have to work hard, don't even fail to pass the college entrance examination."
"Those who are studying together should focus on their studies."
Chen Juan didn't speak, because she knew her mother liked to nag.
Chen Fan looked at her classmates today and said, "I also think you should study hard. Now is not the time for you to play."
"Even if you want to fall in love now, you will definitely regret it when you grow up."
Chen Juan looked at her brother in surprise, why did his opinion suddenly change?
Chen Fan ignored her look and explained to her.
He took the bowls on the table as an example, "Your current life circle, classmates, and friends circle are like this bowl of vegetables."
"Your eyes must be on this bowl of vegetables now."
"Only if you jump into this circle will you have a chance to see chicken."
"Don't look at me like that. According to your brother's knowledge over the years, there are levels between people."
"Their understanding, knowledge, vision, and circles are different, and these people are at different levels."
"For example, if I were in a rural area, my goals and dreams in life would be to marry a wife, have a child, and continue the life of my ancestors, facing the earth with their backs to the sky."
"But if I enter a higher circle, my goal in life may be to open a company, do a career, and become a useful person to the motherland and society."
"Don't you envy those career elites and domineering CEOs on TV?"
"You also have to work hard to reach their level."
"Only when girls are high-end and exquisite can they make those who are not as good as you feel ashamed."
"When your level is higher, your life will be different."
Chen Juan curled her lips and said she couldn't understand.
Old Chen couldn't understand either. Chen Fan's words were too profound.
His request was very simple, as long as Chen Juan passed the college entrance examination and did not stay in the countryside in the future.
As for the rest, he couldn't help. All he could do was send his children here.
The rest depends on their own destiny and abilities.
The next day, Chen Fan and Lao Chen went to sell potatoes early in the morning.
Chen Fan thought there was a lot, but when dad took it out, it was only over three hundred kilograms.
It seems that they are still working in the same way as before. The father and son borrowed a trailer and took the potatoes to the county town to sell them at the door of the vegetable market.
With this model, how much money can the father and son make in a day?
Chen Fan shook his head and called Su Ruzhen on the pretext of going to the toilet.
The sun was a bit strong today. Lao Chen stood in the sun, wiping his sweat, waiting for almost an hour, but not a single potato was sold.
Chen Fan didn't know where he was running and was about to get angry when a brand new Touareg drove over.
A very good-looking girl got out of the car. Her figure and dress were just like those from a big city.
She looked at the photos on her phone and then at the middle-aged man in front of her, "Uncle, how do you sell potatoes?"
