Chapter 551 Making Money

Zhang Chi quickly put on his clothes and left the house, went outside to help his family clean up, complaining while cleaning up.

"Didn't I tell you that there is no need to work so late every day, and the family does not lack this little money. You see, I didn't come back until more than one o'clock today..."

Zhang Jiaren was in good spirits, and said with a smile, "What are you talking about? We're just staying here. Isn't it good to find a job that makes money? No matter what you think, we are quite satisfied anyway."

Said the old man looked back.

Zhang Youpeng, who was following behind, immediately nodded in agreement: "Yes, it's okay to stay at home all the time. It's lively and fulfilling when you get there, don't you think?"

Is the latter sentence a natural question to Zhang Youliang next to me?

Zhang Youliang responded with a smile, and then said to his nephew, "Seriously, Dachi, have you ever been this lively in all the years you've been here?"

Zhang Chi replied: "Not really, that is, the entrance of the restaurant may be crowded on Christmas morning, but there are really not so many people at other times."

Not to mention Amber, even if there are many people in Folsom, Folsom is still a small city. If it is in the country, it will be a township-level unit at most with this population.

Miao Guifang said: "What's the cost? I've already paid the tax. Hey, let alone the tax in the United States is really heavy."

After going around like this, I mixed another 15 yuan and got it.

Zhang Chi quickly said: "The money for air tickets is not worth it, you can keep what you earn, but if you want to get the money out, you have to pay taxes again."

"I have the money for the air ticket back home," Li Xiumei said with a smile.

Zhang Chi watched cheerfully.

How did Zhang Youpeng know, so he glanced at Li Xiumei next to him.

"A little more today, 3000 yuan!" Miao Guifang said.

He finished the soup, picked it up on a tray, and sent it to several elderly money fans in the living room.

"Okay, come on!"

From the first day to the fifteenth day of the new year, it was almost full every day. This kind of traffic, not to mention Zhang Chi and Zhang Youliang, shocked even the local white people who had lived here for hundreds of years.

Zhang Chi is not surprised by this at all, even a fool can see that the Spring Festival activities in Amber Town will definitely go on, not to mention anything else but so much traffic, if Americans who love to make money can Let it go that's weird.

The aunt gave Zhang Chi a five yuan with a smile.

So Zhang Jiaren walked towards the house.

Seeing grandma finished counting, Zhang Chi asked curiously, "Grandma, how much did you earn today?"

Zhang Jiaren looked around and asked with a puzzled look, "Why are you laughing?"

Li Xiumei said: "What is not returned, now it is not returned, it is our own."

"what!?"

Zhang Chi took five yuan, stretched out his hands, glanced at the light, flicked it with his hand, and finally put it back in his pocket.

As soon as I stretched out my hand, I was slapped by my grandma.

Li Xiumei said with a smile: "Dad, I didn't earn as much as you and Mom. After all the costs, we only made [-]. I just nodded."

Waiting for the soup to heat up and the water to boil, Zhang Chi added some easy-to-cook ingredients, then water starch, and more pepper, and this bowl of hot soup was ready.

Li Xiumei said: "We bought all the things, and what to pay back, they are our own things, so naturally we have to carry them into the house."

The three piles of bills are all about the same, because they are all in the snack business. Although it is good, it is impossible to make thousands of knives in one night. Take candied haws as an example, one is five dollars, and two thousand can only be sold for 1 yuan. , How long does it take to make two thousand candied haws.

Not to mention being confused, the atmosphere these days is quite good.

Zhang Chi also had to make fun of it.

Zhang Chi sat next to him, reaching out to help his grandma manage the money.

Zhang Youpeng said: "Is this enough money? The money earned in the entire [-] days is probably enough for one person's air ticket."

With a stern face, he hummed, and then said in an official tone: "Today's time is tight, the task is heavy, and some things have not been considered. Some things have been thought of, but the effect is not good. I am a little dissatisfied, but the result is still good Yes, the effect can be regarded as [-]%...well, about [-]%, but I didn't expect the response to be so good..."

Gu Ying said with a smile: "Auntie, a store here can be opened for two or three generations. For several generations, neighbors have friends, and there are usually no outsiders here. Whoever buys it, you can wear a mask or something. , Stop in their store, and they can call out their names. Also, there are generally no poor people here, as long as they are diligent, there will always be capable jobs. I am too lazy to go to the city.”

Zhang Chi laughed, and everyone followed suit.

Li Xiumei had set up a small stall before, and knew the hardships of setting up a small stall. It was really who would collect the money, and none of the scumbags came to take responsibility for the accident.

"I'll pay it back tomorrow, why are you carrying this thing into the house?" Zhang Chi was a little speechless, thinking that his old lady lived her life too carefully, and even carried a broken stove into the house.

"That's no wonder, how can we do without urban management? Is the city in chaos?" Miao Guifang suddenly realized.

Even if a man doesn't want to come, his wife and children have to pull him over.

"What the hell..." Zhang Jiaren became impatient when he heard this, thinking that he had just paid taxes, why would he have to pay after I took the money away.

"On the news, we read zero-yuan purchases all day long. Why didn't we see a zero-yuan purchase for half a month?" Miao Guifang suddenly didn't know how to remember this, and asked Zhang Chi curiously. .

"The rented things still have to be returned, don't do it like this, it's very troublesome to do it here." Zhang Chi would be wrong, thinking that his mother wanted to hack other people's stove.

Since the things were not to be returned, Zhang Chi had no choice but to pull these things to the warehouse together with the snow crawlers below, unloaded the horses and sent the horses back to the stables.

"I'm not laughing, I'm not laughing, old man, you should go back to the house early, don't freeze when it's so cold, I was working just now, now I'm cold if I'm not busy." Miao Guifang pushed his wife.

Gu Ying didn't know what to say now, so she thought for a while and said, "There is no urban management here, and these things are under the police's control."

"Don't do it, put the things that are easy to freeze in the house, and throw these iron guys directly outside, the activities are over tomorrow, what are you doing with them?"

Zhang Jiaren is still pretending at this time.

Zhang Chi saw that his mother was still working on his own small stove, so he said something.

"Did you get rid of the cost?" Zhang Chi asked.

Zhang Chi felt a little unbelievable: "Why do we buy it? If you throw it in the corner next year, it will be rusted and unusable by the end of the year. This thing will take a long time to use, and it will break if you don't use it."

In fact, including Zhang Chi, I haven’t counted it. Christmas is celebrated here, and there are too many activities. People in many places are not very good. In fact, it is because there are so many places that the tourists are scattered.

"How much did you earn today?" Zhang Jiaren asked his son Zhang Youpeng.

When Zhang Chi returned to the house, he found a group of money fans counting money in the living room. Fortunately, the coffee table at home was big enough to hold three piles of scattered bills.

This kind of money-related matter didn't want him, so Zhang Chi had no choice but to go back to the kitchen and turn on the fire to reheat the half-full soup in the original pot.

Zhang Chi couldn't help but laugh.

"Aunt, uncle, your soup".

Grandma took a piece of five yuan, stuffed it into Zhang Chi's hand, and said like coaxing a child: "Go and play, don't make trouble!"

Made himself a bowl of soup, and sat on the sofa in the living room. Zhang Chi sipped the soup while watching the elders count their money.

The money is big or small, the elders first divide them into several categories, and then start counting according to the number.

Li Xiumei was unhappy: "Aren't these things money?"

Li Xiumei said: "What's the point, we won't be able to come next year. We asked, the town will hold such an event next year, and the scene will be bigger. Your grandfather is already a consultant for next year's Spring Festival event... ".

Li Xiumei continued: "It's almost the same. You haven't set up a stall before. You'll know it once you have set up a stall. Once you pay the messy money, it's better to save trouble here. At that time, there will be a red hoop and a red sleeve on the left. A security guard can reach out and ask you for a pack of cigarettes.”

What's more, the town of Amber really has its own characteristics. Generally speaking, what do most Americans think when they watch Chinese New Year these years?It's just a group of people playing lions and dragon dances. There are very few activities such as flower boats that they can join in. Even in small places, people don't have much knowledge, so they were fooled by Amber's group.

"Then we are similar, don't listen to your mother's nonsense, all our costs are only about two thousand and eight."

I have to say that the event in Amber Town is pretty good. Although it is not as good as the Spring Festival celebrations in domestic towns, this is in the United States, not in domestic towns.

puff!

"How can you still go to the city, and the city management doesn't care?" Miao Guifang was a little disbelieving.

"Thank you for the reward!"

"I help".

Everyone thinks why there are so many people all of a sudden.

Zhang Chi said dumbfoundedly: "Zero yuan purchases are also divided into places. In some weekly laws, there are regulations that those with less than a certain amount will not be prosecuted. This is not the case here. If you rob things and you are directly shot by others, you will be shot." It deserves it, so there are only thieves here, and there are no zero yuan purchases."

This is considered to have Chinese characteristics. In this way, even if you don’t come on the first day, and don’t come on the second day, and on the third day, if you hear friends who have come say it’s fun, can he still not come?

As for the Chinese New Year activities held in Amber Town, one is that there are not many decent festivals in the United States from January to the beginning of February. Americans are very curious and love to join in the fun. Don’t you hear that there are such activities here? , just come over.

"Can I not pay it?" Li Xiumei was even more reluctant: "Just say that we spent the money here."

Zhang Chi said: "It's not impossible, but this matter is troublesome. There is no need for this, because this little tax money will give others a handle."

You can not pay this thing, and you may not be found out, but once you are found out, it is a big deal. Taxation has never been a trivial matter in the United States.

At this time, Gu Ying also opened her mouth to agree with her nephew's words.
