Return home.

It's already mid-morning.

"Mom and Dad, eldest brother took me to pay off the debt. We no longer owe Ba Leizi money." Chen Xiaomei shouted excitedly when she saw her parents.

"All paid off? Okay, okay, little sister, no one will force you to get married anymore."

After hearing the news, Chen Dazhu and his wife were so excited that they could hardly contain themselves.

Zhao Huaihua even shed a few tears.

The debt they owed was like a huge mountain, weighing them down and suffocating them.

His face was also lost.

Now, the biggest debt, and the debt that made them most fearful, has finally been paid off.

What's left is the village's debt.

You can pay it back slowly, at least no one will force me to use my little sister to pay off the debt.

Seeing his family members as excited as if they had won a five-million-dollar prize, Chen Meng felt a trace of guilt in his heart, "Mom and Dad, it's all my fault. If I hadn't been such a jerk before, my family wouldn't owe so much money. You guys

I won’t be worried...but don’t worry, I will be able to pay off all the debts in a short time.”

"Son, what is in the past is in the past. As long as you don't be like before in the future, our family's life will be prosperous." Zhao Huaihua said, wiping her tears.

"Mom, don't worry. Brother has improved now. If he doesn't earn a few hundred yuan someday, he can not only pay off the debt, but also get you a beautiful daughter-in-law... Let me tell you, there is

There is a tailor named Liu Ye. He is very beautiful, and he also likes his brother..." The younger sister was so happy that she forgot about everything and told Liu Ye directly.

Chen Dazhu and his wife's eyes lit up when they heard this. Tailors are craftsmen. No matter what time of the day, they will never be hungry.

I was about to ask.

Chen Meng's face darkened, "Little sister, what nonsense are you talking about? You don't even know what time it is. Are you going to stop catching crayfish?"

I saw my elder brother was angry.

Chen Xiaomei stuck out her tongue guiltily, "Stop talking and go catch the shrimps, otherwise it will be too late."

"It's almost noon, is it too late? How about your dad and I help you catch him." Zhao Huaihua offered to help. Her son paid off Ba Laizi's money, and she was happy.

"No, Mom, it's too hot. You and Dad are old, so rest at home. My little sister and I can go."

Chen Meng took his little sister out of the house.

now.

It's the hottest time of summer.

It was only about ten o'clock in the morning.

The sun is already extremely hot.

After walking a few steps, Chen Meng was so hot that he started to sweat.

There weren't many people working in the fields. They probably all went home to escape the heat.

I still have to work hard to catch shrimps... Chen Meng sighed, "Little sister, I didn't ask you to collect shrimps in Murakami yesterday, what did you do?"

"Brother, I confiscated it...My parents didn't agree and were reluctant to spend money, so they helped me catch it." Chen Xiaomei said sarcastically.

"If you give up, you will gain. You must learn to obtain the highest efficiency at the lowest cost... Let's go, I will take you to collect the shrimps today." Chen Meng said.

"Brother, actually, you are just lazy." The younger sister pursed her lips and smiled.

Snap!!

Chen Meng knocked on the little girl's head and said fiercely, "If you see through it, don't tell it. Brothers and sisters don't have to do anything to tell it. From now on, talk less and learn more."

The little girl rubbed her head, tears welled up in her eyes, and wrinkled her nose, you are just lazy...

Come to the small store.

There are already many villagers enjoying the cool under the big locust tree.

When they saw the two brothers and sisters coming, they immediately stopped talking and looked at them one after another, their eyes full of fear, contempt and ridicule.

The fat aunt was even more nervous, "What are you doing here?"

"Pay back the money."

Chen Meng took out 200 yuan and handed it to the fat aunt, "Take it."

this……

When the fat aunt received the money, she couldn't believe it. She had owed the 200 yuan for two years and she didn't even plan to ask for it.

Seeing that Chen Meng took the initiative to pay back the money, other creditors looked at Chen Meng eagerly.

After repaying Ba Leizi 5,000 yuan, Chen Meng now only had a thousand yuan left. He also paid Fat Aunt 200 yuan. The remaining money was not enough for any family to pay back. He quickly said, "Everyone, I will give you the remaining money."

I'll pay you back in a few days... I'm here today to collect shrimps. They cost five cents each. Each household can only collect ten kilograms. If you want a big one, first come, first served."

"Really?" The villagers didn't seem to believe it.

Ever since Zhang Mazi brought people to collect shrimps once and the villagers made a fortune, no one has collected shrimps anymore.

The villagers are still regretting that they have lost a way to make money.

"Limited to 200 pounds, first come, first served." Chen Meng took out 200 yuan and handed it to the fat aunt, "Please, please change it into change for me..."

Just for a moment.

Chen Meng took out 400 yuan from his pocket.

400 yuan is not much, it is just over a month’s average salary, and every household can afford it.

But no one would carry a month's salary with them. The villagers would be considered rich if they carried about ten yuan with them.

Suddenly.

No one doubts Chen Meng's financial resources anymore.

They all got up and rushed to catch the shrimps.

"Brother, why does one family only charge 10 pounds? Isn't it much easier to collect enough at once?" the younger sister asked doubtfully.

"With 200 kilograms of shrimp, if one family receives 10 kilograms, it can take care of 20 families. It can also give them an extra hundred yuan in income a month. This is already a lot of money."

Chen Meng glanced at the fat aunt who was listening carefully, and lowered his voice and said, "Didn't I tell you before that our family has a bad reputation in the village because of me? We need to extend our kindness so that everyone will be grateful to us.

It’s better than having one person be grateful.”

"Brother, you are so cunning." The little girl pursed her lips and snickered.

After a while.

Villagers who caught shrimps flocked to the place.

As Chen Meng expected, there are always some people who are dishonest, and some even grab thirty or forty pounds.

Greedy.

Chen Meng sneered, "Each household only charges 10 pounds, I don't want any more."

"We've caught them all, but whoever is being taken is not taken." A villager yelled, squeezing forward in shock, and lifted thirty kilograms of shrimps directly in front of Chen Meng, as if Chen Meng couldn't help but accept them.

"I won't accept any of your shrimps," Chen Meng said calmly.

"Why? Uncle Xingxing worked so hard to catch it. How can you just say you don't want it?"

"Just because the money is mine, I can take it from whomever I want..."

Chen Meng sneered, and when he saw what the other party was going to say, his eyes became fierce, "It's shameless, right? I'll just take you in and make money by yourself. What will the other villagers do? Today I took you thirty

Jin, if you dare to catch three hundred pounds tomorrow, you guys

Do you think you can’t catch enough shrimps? Look at how many people on the roadside threw away last time Zhang Mazi came to collect shrimps. One family only collected 10 kilograms. Whoever caught more shrimps should put them back honestly. They can catch them again tomorrow.

Otherwise, it will only be your own money that is wasted..."

"Chen Meng is right, those who eat alone will have sons without buttocks."

Together, the villagers drove away the villager who squeezed in.

What Chen Meng wanted was this effect. Some things needed to be changed subtly, and he immediately said loudly, "Line up, don't mess up, and put the shrimp back if you didn't receive it today, and give priority to purchasing it tomorrow to ensure that everyone can make money."

"

That's fair.
