028: This matter can only succeed and not fail

"Brother, where are we going?"

Although it was already summer, when the sky was bright and the fog was heavy, Zhang Lianzi felt a little cold and couldn't help but squeeze her brother Zhang Yingda's hand.

Zhang Yingda reassured, "We'll know when we get there."

Since he left home yesterday, he has not thought about going back. According to the temper of his father and his mother, there will definitely be a good beating when he goes back, and he will not be able to protect his sister. Fortunately, he hid the money elsewhere, otherwise the two brothers and sisters will now

People's situation will only get worse.

Zhou Ahfa kicked the stones on the roadside as he walked, "Ada, can your method really make money?"

“You’ll know after you try it.”

Although Zhang Yingda said this, there was a fierceness in his eyes, and he could only succeed and not fail in this matter.

Zhou Afa glanced at Zhang Yingda's downcast eyebrows and knew that Zhang Yingda's stubbornness was at fault again. Anyway, as an orphan, he had no other place to go. He might be able to make a living by hanging out with his good brothers.

Zhang Yingda had already made up his mind. He did not choose the village closest to the city, but chose a remote village. This was the name of the place he got from the vegetable seller yesterday. Now he can only fumble to find it.

When I was hungry on the way, I drank mountain spring water until I couldn't bear it anymore. Then I took out the dry food I had brought with me and carefully gave a little to my sister and Zhou Afa. The remaining dry food was packed and ready for lunch.

Zhou Afa did not dislike it and swallowed it in big mouthfuls.

Zhang Lianzi ate it in small bites, reluctant to finish it all at once.

But time was very tight, so Zhang Yingda took her sister and continued on her way without waiting for her to finish eating.

In the summer, it dawned very early. After asking several men who drove the oxcarts, I arrived at the village called Huaihua Village.

At this time, the three of them were panting from exhaustion. Zhang Yingda did not dare to rest for too long, so he left his sister in the care of Zhou Afa, while he walked towards the big tree in the village where people were already gathering.

"Where did this young boy come from?" An old man saw him and asked curiously.

Zhang Yingda smiled and said hello to the old people, trying to make a good impression first, and then said the reason for his visit, "Grandpas, I'm here to collect the vegetables."

"Collecting vegetables?"

Hearing this new term, several old people looked at each other, seeming to understand but not quite understanding.

Seeing that they were confused, Zhang Yingda knelt down and explained, "Grandpas, you see your village is at least more than an hour away from the city. Usually you grow more vegetables than you can eat, so you take them to the city to sell them.

It takes a lot of time to go back and forth, doesn't it delay the farm work? Besides, even if you go to the city to sell, you don't have much vegetables to sell alone, and you can't make much money either, so why not sell all the vegetables?

Sell ​​it to me? You will save your labor and time, and I will make some hard money and sell the vegetables to the city..."

This statement is quite new, but if you think about it carefully, it seems to make sense. Several old people were moved at the moment. However, some people saw that Zhang Yingda was so young. How could they believe his words?

One of the old men pulled Zhang Yingda in front of him, "Young man, are you serious?"

When Zhang Yingda saw that he was interested, he hurriedly patted his chest and said, "Of course it's true, can I still lie to you?"

"Then how much can you pay for it?" Someone came over and asked with concern.

"Then it depends on how your food looks." Zhang Yingda didn't say how much it would cost.

He lay in the ruined temple last night. He didn't sleep much all night. He was just wondering about this matter. How should he ask and how should he answer? Countless changes had already happened in his heart, so it didn't seem unfamiliar to deal with it now.

.

This made the old man who looked down upon him faintly change his mind.

The old man who asked the question first got up and pulled Zhang Yingda forward, "Let's take a look at my food."

"Okay."

Zhang Yingda responded cheerfully, and then called to her sister and Zhou Afa on the other side to follow them quickly.

The old man who pulled him away first saw a little girl and immediately frowned, but didn't say much.

When Zhang Yingda saw this, he was actually complaining in his heart, but he didn't show it at all.

As he walked, he secretly observed the Sophora Flower Village. In fact, the land for growing vegetables in the village was limited. Each household could not grow much. Most of the land was used to grow food. Look at the growth of the rice.

Very gratifying.

Unlike Zhang Yingda who was busy in the vegetable field, Chang Xi slept until midnight.

As soon as she got up and freshened up, she saw Aunt Luo already smiling and waiting aside, "Good morning, Aunt Luo."

"Greetings to Mrs. Chang." Aunt Luo smiled and saluted.

"Mommy, there is no need to be so polite," Corporal Chang Xi Lixian helped Mama Luo up, "Have you finished handing over all the previous errands?"

Aunt Luo was very satisfied with Chang Xi's attitude, but she said with a humble face, "Mrs. Chang Chang has forgotten it. We finished it last night. From now on, we will just wait for Mrs. Chang to send us."

She knew very well what Chang Xi wanted her to do, and learning rules was just a lie, so she didn't want to rely on her old age to show off.

Aunt Zhong reminded her privately to be careful with Chang Xi and not to be taken advantage of by her, but she thought, if she was useless, why would Chang Xi want her?

The most important thing for a person is to have self-awareness.

"Don't worry, I will notify grandma when necessary." Chang Xi said with a smile, "But I'm afraid I need grandma to take care of things outside."
