The little bald man wanted to commit suicide by jumping into the river after losing more than one million yuan in stock trading. Tang Qing could not ignore it and had to rack his brains to find a way for him.
Tang Qing thought for more than ten minutes, and the People's Barber Shop was silent for more than ten minutes. Even Yingxin and Yingchun fell asleep peacefully.
"Little Baldy, let me ask you, who did you borrow the five hundred thousand banknotes from?"
"Contractor."
"Then are your stocks still there? Have you cut off your shares?"
"Master Jiujin, do you know how to trade stocks? You even know how to cut meat?"
"Stop talking nonsense, have you cut any flesh?"
"Not yet, but if the contractor asks me to pay him back, I can only cut off the flesh, but even if I cut off it, it won't be enough to pay him back."
"You asked him how many days he said he would pay him back when he borrowed it?"
"Half a year, it expires at the end of this month."
"oh."
Tang Qing began to fall into deep thought again, and the People's Barber Shop was silent again.
"What's the matter?"
"What's wrong with you guys?"
"No, if there is a situation, we'd better evacuate immediately!"
Carpenter Wang, Bao Wentan and Shibawei wandered into the People's Barber Shop. When they saw Tang Qing lowering his head in thought, the others were also silent and wanted to exit the People's Barber Shop.
"stop!"
"oh."
"good."
"Not moving."
Tang Qing shouted, "Wang Carpenter, please inquire." Shibapi stood at the door and did not dare to move any further.
"Come in and sit down!"
"oh."
"good."
"sit down."
Carpenter Wang, Bao Qiang, Shiba Pei and the other three sat down on the long benches in an orderly manner.
"Xiaoqiang's uncle, let me ask you, do you still plan to open a supermarket?"
Tang Qing and Yan Yue asked Shi Shiba.
"I'm reporting to Master Jiujin that I have completed the preliminary work. I will go get the business license tomorrow. I will start recruiting people the day after tomorrow and strive to have a trial opening next month."
Tang Qing was used to staring at him and razor-shaving him. Tang Qing was a little unaccustomed to treating him with such a good attitude. He thought there was some deceit in it and it was a prelude to punishing him. He straightened his back and answered loudly and respectfully.
"Very good, very good. Little bald head, can you listen to my arrangement?"
Tang Qing first nodded to Shiba Diai with satisfaction, then turned to the little bald man.
"Master Jiujin, as long as you can help me, I will obey your arrangements in everything."
"Master Jiujin, it is his blessing that you can arrange it for him. My daughter and I will be grateful to you forever."
When the little bald couple heard that Tang Qing was willing to help, their eyes shone with despair again.
"As long as you listen to my arrangements, does any of you have the mobile phone number of the contractor?"
Tang Qing glanced around at everyone in the People's Barber Shop, and his eyes rested on Auntie Shanghai.
"Master Jiujin, I don't have Yi's mobile phone number. I will never have anything to do with a chamber pot egg like Yi again. I will wholeheartedly live with the butcher. I will be content to raise Yingchun well from now on."
"Aunt Shanghai, don't worry, I didn't say anything."
"Tell Master Jiujin that I have the mobile phone number of the contractor."
Eighteen raised hands.
"You call the contractor's cell phone. I have something to tell him."
"OK!"
Shiba Diao took out her cell phone and contacted the foreman, then handed the cell phone to Tang Qing.
"You just press the hands-free button."
Tang Qing did not answer Shiba's cell phone.
"Master Jiujin, okay. Contractor, Master Jiujin wants to talk to you."
Shibatu pressed the hands-free button.
"Hello, big boss, are you busy?"
"Master Jiujin, you are not busy, you are just getting up."
"The big boss is the big boss, sleep until you wake up naturally."
"Master Jiujin, aren't you sleeping? It was almost dawn when we got home from the institute."
"As a barber, I have a good life like your big boss. I have to shave my head to earn tuition for my son."
"Master Jiujin, if you need money, just give me a call and I'll deliver it right away."
"Thank you, I really have something to tell you about money today."
"Master Jiujin, you say it, you say it."
"Did Little Baldy borrow half a million yuan from you?"
"That's right, they said it was a temporary turnaround and they would return it to me at the end of this month."
"I want to discuss with you whether we can give him a period of grace?"
"Master Jiujin, my little secretary just heard from my sister that the little bald man is going to commit suicide by jumping off the East Bridge? Is this true?"
"Yes, didn't I drag him to the People's Barber Shop?"
"Oh, is it because he owes too much debt and can't pay it off? Is he going to commit suicide by jumping off the East Bridge?"
"He does owe a lot of debt, and it was due to stock trading. But don't worry, he will definitely pay you back. He just needs you to give him some time. When the time comes, the interest will be calculated according to the bank's standards. I will guarantee it."
"Master Jiujin, do whatever you say, I will listen to you."
"Then come to the People's Barber Shop when you are free. I will ask the little bald man to write a new IOU for you, and I will guarantee your signature."
"Master Jiujin, I told you that I will listen to you in everything."
"That's good, thank you. By the way, would you like me to tell the little secretary to save you from embarrassment?"
"Master Jiujin, I have no objection. Whatever you say will be done, we can rest assured."
The little secretary's voice came from the mobile phone.
"Okay, thank you then. I'll hang up now."
Tang Qing signaled Shibazui to turn off his phone with his eyes.
"Grandma, what a bear. Is this little secretary looking too closely at the foreman? She even made a phone call and was listening. If I were the foreman, I would have kicked her long ago. I am so rich, how can I find a woman to pay her back?
Isn’t it easy?”
"It's easy! It's easy! Do you want to kick me too?"
As soon as Shibapi finished speaking, his eldest cousin came over and grabbed his ears.
"Wife, my dear wife, I mean the contractor. How could I kick you if you are so good? Can you be gentler? It hurts me, it hurts a lot."
Shiba was busy urinating and begging for mercy.
"He deserves it! Cousin, let him go first. I have something to tell you two."
Tang Qing was amused in his heart. One thing is good for another, Shiba Pei really needs someone like his eldest cousin to discipline him.
"Master Jiu Jin, tell me, Shiba Diao and I promise to obey you just like the foreman and secretary."
"Yes, yes, we all listen to you."
The eldest cousin let go of her hand and rubbed her ears vigorously.
"What are you talking about? Let me ask you, your supermarket is recruiting people, can I introduce two people to you?"
Tang Qing tentatively asked Shiba.
"Yes, yes, yes, one hundred, ten thousand, yes!"
Eighteen urine nods like pounding garlic.
"You are not talking seriously. You are talking to Master Jiujin. One hundred people can do it, ten thousand people can do it. Do we need a hundred people to open a supermarket? Do we need ten thousand people?"
The eldest cousin's big hands grabbed Shiba Di's ears again.
"Let him go. I don't have any intention of introducing anyone into your supermarket. Just treat it as if I didn't."
Tang Qing heard something in his cousin's words, turned around and asked Auntie Shanghai and Shagu:
"Is the business going well with Pig Killer and Da Mao?"
"Master Jiujin, there is no need to be secretive here. The small business of Butcher and Da Mao is just for supporting the family."
"That's right, Hungry Family Da Mao and the pig butcher are just selling some meat, it's not much of a business at all. Hungry Family is worried about whether the tuition will be enough when Yingxin grows up."
Auntie Shanghai and Sha Gu hurriedly explained that Sha Gu was even "hungry".
"Yes, I understand. Do you want to eat lunch at your own home or go to my parents' place?"
Tang Qing stopped asking and changed the topic.
"Ala, I'm going back to eat. I'm going to change Yingchun's diaper."
A Shanghai aunt picked up Yingchun and walked out of the People's Barber Shop.
"I'm hungry too, and I need to change diapers to welcome the new year."
The silly aunt followed the Shanghai aunt out of the People's Barber Shop.
"We have to go back to eat too. There are a lot of leftovers."
The eldest cousin pulled up Shiba and walked out.
"Then I'll go back to eat, see you Master Jiujin."
Carpenter Wang put his hands behind his back and stepped out of the People's Barber Shop.
"Master Jiujin, then I'll go back to eat."
Bao Wenwen stood up and wanted to leave.
"Wait a minute, I have something to tell you."
"oh."
Bao Wenwen stood there waiting for Tang Qing to give him instructions.
Tang Qing looked at the bag and looked at the bald couple. There was a sour taste in his heart and he almost shed tears.
