Lin Chuan vowed to take advantage of this opportunity of rebirth to let his whole family live a good life.
Today happens to be a big market day in the town.
Small vendors from all over the place and people coming to the market were bustling and lively.
It's just that materials in this era were still relatively scarce, and what was on the stalls was nothing more than firewood, rice, oil, and salt.
Lin Chuan was suddenly startled as he looked at it.
According to the memory of a previous life, on this day in 1985, a man named Zhao, who was selling trendy hairpins, was thrown into the river because he drank too much and pretended to be cool. This became public knowledge far and wide.
“Isn’t this an opportunity to make money?”
Lin Chuan immediately asked someone else about the time and was sure that the drunkard would appear from the south side of the town in ten minutes.
Having made up his mind, Lin Chuan immediately strode towards the south of the town.
Sure enough, I saw a thin man carrying a bag and not drunk but still walking towards me.
Lin Chuan stepped forward and greeted with a smile: "Isn't this Brother Zhao? Why are you here?"
Zhao Guofa's face was full of confusion, he didn't recognize him.
"Who are you……"
"You are such a noble and forgetful person. I am your distant relative. We even drank together. It's rare to see you here. Come on, I'll treat you to a drink!"
When Zhao Guofa heard that there was wine, he felt itchy in his heart.
However, as he weighed the bag on his back, a look of embarrassment appeared on his liver-colored face.
"No, brother, my cousin brought me some cards from the south. My wife asked me to sell them quickly. I'm waiting for money to eat at home!"
Lin Chuan looked disdainful and mocked: "Brother Zhao, are you still afraid of your wife? This is not like you. Let's do this. You can wholesale all these cards to me at once.
I'll sell it and you'll go drink it. You must try that knife-burning restaurant in town!"
The greed in Zhao Guofa's stomach was instantly aroused.
The smell of burning knives fills my mind.
He immediately put the bag on the ground and said carelessly: "Well, I'll save the money and buy it myself. These cards are wholesale for five cents each.
There are exactly over two hundred and thirty in this bag. If you give me ten dollars, I will wholesale them all to you!"
Lin Chuan immediately took out the crumpled ten yuan and slapped it happily into Zhao Guofa's hand.
Zhao Guofa took the money and rushed to the tavern without hesitation as if he was going to the battlefield.
Lin Chuan opened the bag with a smile and chuckled.
"The first pot of gold I earned after my rebirth came from you!"
Returning to the market, Lin Chuan found an open space with a relatively large passenger flow, picked up a broken cardboard box, and poured all the cards on it.
As the saying goes, 30% buying and selling, 70% shouting.
People of that era didn't know how to shout, but Lin Chuan did.
After clearing his throat, Lin Chuan shouted loudly.
"Take a walk and take a look. The latest fashionable hairpins have arrived. Women look better when they wear them, aunts become girls when they wear them, and children become cuter when they wear them. Don't miss it if you pass by!"
People of that era had never heard of such a cry, let alone such a fashionable thing as hairpins.
After a few calls, a lot of people gathered around.
Seeing the opportunity, Lin Chuan immediately picked up a black hairpin with a bow and put it on a little girl's head.
"Look, how beautiful, how beautiful, how fashionable!"
When the child's mother saw it, she liked it very much.
"Brother, how much does one cost?"
Lin Chuan smiled and said: "It's not expensive, only two cents each!"
"With two cents you can't buy something at a loss, nor can you be fooled, but you can buy something beautiful!"
In an era when a pound of pork costs 1.5 yuan, two cents is neither expensive nor cheap.
But Lin Chuan will yell.
A panic buying scene suddenly appeared.
"I want the red one, and the pink one with flowers!"
"Give me five, here's one dollar, keep it!"
"I want two, and I want to buy one for my mother. How beautiful it is!"
Lin Chuan yelled and collected money.
Two hundred and thirty-five cards were issued, and within an hour, only two were left.
But Lin Chuan didn't sell them anymore, so he kept the two most beautiful ones and sent them back to his wife and children.
Then count those 80 cents carefully, 46.6.
This is equivalent to the monthly salary of a worker in a big city.
After counting the cost of 10 yuan, the net profit is 36.6, which is an increase of 3.6 times.
Lin Chuan held the gun tightly, feeling full of emotions in his heart.
Thinking about my trillions of wealth in my previous life, I am not as excited as this 36.6.
Because this is the beginning of rebirth and the beginning of repairing all the regrets of the previous life.
Lin Chuan wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and immediately went to the grain store to buy two bags of flour and a bucket of oil.
I went to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought a notebook and pen, a small red schoolbag, and a pencil case.
In his previous life, he favored boys over girls, which caused so many years of harm to Wanyu.
Now that he is reborn, he must make up for his relationship with his daughter.
Later, Lin Chuan bought two more big carps.
In my previous life, my family was destroyed because of eating fish.
This time I still have to eat fish, but the fish I eat is my own fish, the fish I earned openly.
Passing by a stall, Lin Chuan bought Qin Mengying another bag of the cream she had always wanted.
Thinking about his previous life, he beat Qin Mengying all over her body because of a dime-a-bag of cream.
Every time he thought of this, he felt deeply guilty.
The sun sets in the west.
In the dilapidated and messy yard at the edge of the town.
Qin Mengying, carrying Zhouzhou on her back and pulling Wanyu with her, waited eagerly at the door, pacing back and forth, anxiously looking at the road at the door that extended her hopes and worries.
Every time there were footsteps, she would put her head out to see if Lin Chuan was back.
Qin Mengying regretted giving the ten yuan to Lin Chuan.
The children hadn't eaten all day, and Wanyu's hungry stomach was growling.
But there was still no sign of Lin Chuan. He must have gone drinking and gambling again with the only ten yuan the family had.
How are you going to live this day?
The female neighbors who passed by couldn't stand it anymore.
"Did your Lin Chuan go gambling again? Why didn't the sky thunder and kill him? Mengying, wait a minute. I still have a few corn cakes at home. I'll give them to the children first!"
Qin Mengying refused with tears in her eyes: "Sister-in-law Zhang, no need. I haven't returned the five kilograms of noodles I took from your house last time. How can I take your things again?"
Lin Chuan will be able to buy the noodles soon, and then I will make noodles for the children!"
Sister-in-law Zhang felt sorry for Qin Mengying from the bottom of her heart.
She gently held Qin Mengying's hand and persuaded softly: "Don't live with him. What's the point of living this life? Sun Danian from Zhendongtou has liked you for so many years.
Why don't you agree to go with him and just guard Lin Chuan, a useless, damned beast? What do you think?"
Qin Mengying's heart tightened. The last thing she wanted to hear was Sun Danian's name.
He just said helplessly: "If you marry a chicken, follow the chicken, if you marry a dog, follow the dog. How can I have the dignity to see someone else's birthday now?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhouzhou shouted in a sweet voice: "Dad, dad is back!"
