My 1979

No one would have thought that such a down-and-out person would become a millionaire in the future. However, with the development of the times, multi-millionaires are not uncommon. They rely on mountains and rivers, and the Huaihe River. Anyone from among shipowners can have a net worth of tens of millions.

"Let's talk while walking," Li He continued, "Why did you think of collecting rags?"

Liu Laosi groaned and said, "I once went to the county town to sell vegetables. I saw someone using a small iron claw to rummage through the garbage pool, so I followed him carefully. Just for a moment, I looked. I sold it for more than 2 yuan at the purchasing station. That's more than 60 yuan a month. I have worked so hard to grow vegetables for a season, but it is not worth his month of picking up rags. So, I won't sell vegetables. Now, learn to go into the county town every day to pick up rags."

"Then are you making any money?" Li He was still curious.

"We made money at first, but then we lost money." Liu Laosi said sheepishly.

Li He couldn't understand, "How can you lose money in this business without capital?"

"I went to the door of someone's factory and picked up an iron ring that no one wanted. But they said I was a thief. If I didn't pay compensation, they would send it to the police. The compensation was 50 yuan. I don't dare to go there now."

Li He thought that he was being blackmailed. This Liu Laosi was really honest, but there was nothing he could do about it. An honest farmer who was unfamiliar with the place and had no one to rely on, it was good to take the first step. He continued to ask, "Then you don't dare to go?"

Liu Laosi lowered his head, probably because he was really scared, "If you do it again, I won't be able to afford the compensation."

"Are you sure you can make money?" Li He asked deliberately. He has made waste products himself, and he knows very well whether waste products can make money.

"Of course you can. Used books, newspapers, scrap copper and iron can be sold to the collection station. If you have old appliances and furniture, you can sell them to the flea market. But these things are few and you have to try your luck."

Li He said, "Do you know what your problem is?"

Liu Laosi said, "I'm asking you because I don't know. I really want to do it, but I'm just afraid in case I get sent to the Public Security Bureau."

Li He said with a smile, "As the old saying goes, there are three gangs of heroes. You are alone and weak. If others don't block you, you will be ganged up on. You will be taken advantage of."

"Then I also know that I want to find someone to accompany me. Everyone knows that I have lost money and no one is willing."

"How about I let my youngest and Da Zhuang do it with you?" Li He felt that it was time for Li Long to go out and exercise. They were close to home in the county. He also said hello to He Jun and Bian Mei, what's going on? The county seat can also cover it. If you meet some hooligans, they are both extremely strong and strong, and it would be good if they don't offend others. How can anyone dare to recruit them?

Liu Laosi opened his mouth and couldn't believe his ears, "Seriously, they are having a good life, how embarrassing it is to follow me."

"If you work with three people, you won't be able to pick rags, but collect rags. You can also do some side jobs, such as sharpening kitchen knives and scissors, tying your hair and braids, and shaving your hair to drain the sewer. Can't you all do it?" Li He still said With the purpose of letting Li Long exercise, he should at least learn how to treat people and treat others. Whether he makes money or not is secondary.

"We can do it all, but collecting rags requires capital." Liu Laosi said in embarrassment.

"I'll pay for it." Li He said directly.

"I'm afraid this is not good." Liu Laosi didn't want to take advantage of Li He.

"Okay, let's just say it. There is only one thing. You are mature and can help me keep an eye on these two people. Tomorrow, no, the day after tomorrow, you come to my house the day after tomorrow, and you three can discuss it among yourselves." Li He did not. After giving Liu Laosi another chance to speak, he turned around and left. It was so cold that it was best to go home and get under the covers as soon as possible.

On the first day of the new year, Li Long and his wife went straight to their father-in-law's house with their two children in their arms. Li Mei and his wife also came back with their children.

With everyone gathered in this way, the family carried their things and went to Grandma and Uncle Hewan's place.

In previous years, Li Zhaokun rarely went. He was not welcomed anywhere, and he could only drink and drink. He found it boring even if he went there. But this year, for the first time, he also went and shaved his beard.

I went to my grandma's house first. There was not enough room for a few people in that thatched house. It was very cold in the house and there was no stove. The old lady lay on the bed without getting off the floor. She just kept politely asking everyone to sit on the edge of the bed. There was no place to sit in the house. Woolen cloth.

Li He saw that the old lady was clearly out of sorts and asked the old man, "Grandma, what's going on?"

The old man took Li Zhaokun's cigarette and sighed, "I ate too much last night. I caught a cold and have a stomachache. I've prescribed some medicine. Just take it and you'll be fine."

"Didn't you send her to the hospital?" Li He knew that the old lady couldn't survive for a few more years. Maybe she didn't pay much attention to the usual minor illnesses, otherwise she wouldn't have left so early. The old man was in poor health. When he had a stomachache, his body couldn't help but feel exhausted.

"I was about to go to your uncle to discuss it. Before I went, you guys came." The old man took out a puff of smoke.

Li He would give money to the two old people every year when he came back. Including what Wang Yulan gave, it was estimated to be seven or eight hundred. Eighty percent of the money was given to his two sons. Otherwise, if they were sent to the hospital, there would be no need to discuss with the sons.

He didn't continue talking and went out. He turned around and looked at the leaky thatched house. He really wanted to tear it down and build a new house for the two old people.

The two old people are really going to be blamed. Where can he put the respect of his two uncles? Where can Xizi put the respect of his grandsons? The most important thing is that the two old people will never live in the house, and they can still blame Li He. superior.

Even if he wants to send the old man to the hospital now, he still has to find his uncle to come forward. After all, everyone's surname is Wang, and his surname is Li. If he just sends the old man to the hospital regardless of whether he wants to go or not, his two uncles He can curse all eight generations of his ancestors.

When his second uncle Wang Yuguo saw Li He coming, he was very enthusiastic. This nephew helped him so much and he knew etiquette. Besides, he is now a member of the public family. It is honorable to serve the public family's meals and to be friends with relatives. "Er He, it's cold outside. Come in and I’ll make you a cup of tea to warm your hands.”

Xizi was coaxing the child to sleep in the room. She was very happy when she saw Li He coming, "Sit down, cousin. We'll be here at noon. Let's have some drinks."

Li He thought about how to turn around and talk about grandma, so he smiled and said, "Don't be busy, I just came from grandma, and I think the old lady's stomach is a bit annoying."

Wang Yuguo said, "I'm going to check it out later, and then go to the clinic to give her medicine. She's getting older, and her body can't withstand the damage."

When Li He saw that Wang Yuguo didn't mention going to the hospital, he smiled and said, "Why don't you go to the commune hospital? It's not that far away."

Wang Yuguo has Wang Yuguo's difficulties. He also wants to send his mother to the hospital, but the boss doesn't say anything and he has no money. At this time, the second aunt answered, "You are old, the weather is freezing, the road is not easy to walk, your grandma will suffer, I just want to wait for the weather to clear up and send her to the hospital."

Li He looked at the little guy lying on the bed and said with a smile, "Uncle, this kid is really smart and looks like Xizi. I didn't get to drink the full moon wine. This money is for the kid as a gift from me."

After speaking, he directly handed a wad of money to Wang Yuguo.

Wang Yuguo was stunned and felt that the thickness of the money was several hundred.

Fortunately, he was not stupid, and he finally came to his senses. How could he give so much gift money? Ordinarily, this money should be given directly to Xizi, so how could he give it to him.

His nephew asked him to take the money to send the old man to the hospital under the guise of giving money to the child. He thought it was wrong and wanted to give it to Li He, "Er He, you don't need so much."

Li He smiled and said, "It's okay, just give the child a little thought."

Wang Yuguo said, "Then you sit here for a while and I'll go see the old lady. I'm still a little worried."

Li He didn't tell the truth, so Wang Yuguo didn't tell the truth either. He pointed out the truth but didn't tell the truth, that's all.

At that moment, without consulting the boss of the Wang family, he found a donkey cart, stuffed the old lady with quilts, and sent her to the hospital.

Wang Yulan and Li Mei were worried, so they went to the commune hospital.

At noon, the second aunt was cooking. She was very polite to Li and his brothers and sisters. She gritted her teeth and fried the bacon at home, and put in several heads of cabbage, which was enough for a big basin. After simmering a few more pieces of tofu, it looks better on the table.

Brothers Li He, Li Zhaokun, Yang Xuewen and Xizi just drank some wine and ate some food. They didn't delay after the meal and went back with the fourth and fifth children.
