Reborn in the 1980s to run to a better life

Chapter 278 Liu Dayi

Liu Dayi smiled heartily, "I am Jianguo's comrade-in-arms, named Liu Dayi. He sent me a telegram yesterday, saying that you guys should let me come and pick you up this morning, and he also told you to help me when you want to rent a store. For a moment, don't let you be deceived, hahaha"

"Hello Brother Liu!" Zhang Yongsheng hurried forward to shake hands.

A group of people left the train station, Liu Dayi took them on the bus, "Let's go to my place for a rest and have a meal later, let's see if there are any arrangements."

Zhang Yongsheng asked curiously: "Is Brother Liu also from the provincial capital?"

Liu Dayi shook his head, "No, my hometown is in a small valley on the side of Jiujiang. I used to be poor and had no choice but to enlist in the army. Later, by chance, I made a small fortune. When I came back, I set up a small shop in the provincial capital. Sell ​​early, the business is okay, I just bought a house here last year to take over my wife and children from my hometown."

"Hey! That's great! A family is better than anything else." Zhang Yongsheng sighed, "It's helpless like me. There are two young students in my hometown, and I really can't take it with me."

Liu Dayi looked at Zhang Linlin, and asked curiously, "Is this the eldest girl of your family?"

Zhang Yongsheng nodded, "My eldest daughter didn't go to school after graduating from elementary school, so I brought it here this time to help me."

"It's pretty good. My family has two brats. The eldest is eighteen. He graduated from junior high school and doesn't study. If he insists on imitating me and enlisting in the army, he can go if he wants to. I can't stop him. The younger one, fifteen, is still studying. I'll give him We've moved to the provincial capital." Liu Dayi roughly talked about the situation at home.

The bus bumped into the urban area, and the cement road was easy to walk a lot. After getting off the bus, the group had to call two tricycles to pick them up.

It was already afternoon when we got back to Liu Dayi's house.

Liu Dayi's daughter-in-law is Xu Fen, a typical rural woman who regards her husband as her god. Liu Dayi does whatever she says, doesn't have her own ideas, and doesn't refute them. She is very enthusiastic about Zhang Yongsheng's family and prepares meals unambiguously. , quite satisfactory.

Zhang Yongsheng's family felt embarrassed instead.

Liu Dayi asked them to sit down, and when everyone was full, Zhang Yongsheng looked at the sky outside, feeling a little anxious, "Brother Liu, where is the busiest place in the city? There are more people living there?"

"That's a lot! If you want to talk about the excitement, except for the city center, there are all districts, streets and alleys, and there is no shortage of people anywhere. I haven't asked you what you plan to open a store to sell?" Liu Dayi looked at it suspiciously. Zhang Yongsheng.

Zhang Yongsheng hesitated and said: "We want to sell seafood, it is best to open a store near the vegetable market. Besides seafood, we can also sell other things, as long as there are many people."

"That's easy! My house is a vegetable market street. Come and see it tomorrow morning. There are stalls selling vegetables on both sides of the street. I sell groceries. As long as they don't sell groceries at my door, people want to set up I have no objection either, you can still attract some guests for me! Hahaha" Liu Dayi looked like the kind of open-minded person who doesn't like to care about anything.

It's no wonder that with such a temperament, Wen Jianguo and Wen Jianguo became good brothers.

Zhang Yongsheng hurriedly asked: "Brother Liu, are there any shops on this street for rent?"

"I have to ask you about this. We are an old street here, and it has only become lively in the past two years. When I bought this store, it was quite deserted. I thought, anyway, we sell groceries, as long as As long as there are many people, it doesn’t matter if the street is hot or not, later more people opened shops and stalls, and it became a vegetable market all of a sudden.”

After Liu Dayi finished speaking, he turned around and went out to ask door to door. There are many people living here, and not every family has a shop.

After asking around, Liu Dayi really asked about two families, both of which are from better-off families, separated, and the old man guards the old house alone, lonely and deserted.

"The rent they ask for is not much, but they can only rent the hall in front to you to open a shop, and the house in the back will still be lived in. I haven't heard about the whole rent yet, and I guess I'll ask in the next two days." Liu Dayi said.

Zhang Yongsheng was very grateful, "Brother Liu, I'm sorry, we will look for it by ourselves tomorrow, and we still have to rent a house."

If possible, he would like to rent the house tonight, after all, it is not convenient to live in someone else's house.

At this time, Xu Fen, who had been silent all this time, spoke. She spoke the local dialect, which Zhang Yongsheng's family could not understand.

Liu Dayi translated, "My daughter-in-law said that there is a house for rent in Lane [-], and she can show you there."

"That's a good relationship! Shall we go now?" Zhang Yongsheng pretended to get up.

Liu Dayi and his wife led him there, and they came back after about half an hour.

Zhang Yongsheng happily said to Huang Suzhen's mother and daughter, "Let's go! Take your luggage. We'll live there at night. I've already paid the rent."

"So fast? How much do you pay?" Huang Suzhen's eyes widened in shock, and she quickly carried all her luggage on her back.

Zhang Yongsheng also carried two large woven bags, and said: "Three months, five yuan a month, the place is not big, one room, and a kitchen less than ten square meters, let's make do with it, if the business is successful Go down and change when the time comes."

Huang Suzhen was relieved when she heard that the rent was five yuan a month, which was much lower than she thought.

There were still people living in the house before, it was very clean and there was no need to tidy it up.

After Liu Dayi left, Zhang Yongsheng said to them: "The landlord lives behind a wall. Originally, the house was a whole set, separated by separate families. They rented out this place because they couldn't use it for the time being. I don't think there are many people here. Few, most of them are dual-employees. If we sell seafood, the business should be OK.

But we can't just do this business. I've thought about it. I'll sell seafood, and you and Linlin will sell clothes. Even if I don't make money here, you should make money there. "

Clothes can be stored, unlike seafood, which is expensive and may be thrown into the hands if it cannot be sold.

The next day, Zhang Yongsheng called Wen Jianguo and asked him to send the goods over first, and take his time with the store, even if he couldn't find it, he could set up a stall and earn some money first.

At the same time, he also started to move around the provincial capital, first to find out the environment here, so that he could make further plans.

Liu Dayi saw that Zhang Yongsheng was very organized, so he gave him a high-level look, and said to Xu Fen when he went to bed at night: "They just arrived here, and it's hard to talk to them. If you have time, you can walk around with Zhang brother and wife. , help me."

Xu Fen gave her man a strange look, "Your comrade's relative, why are you so caring?"

Liu Dayi said depressingly: "Didn't you see Brother Zhang's eldest daughter? If our eldest son hadn't joined the army, he should be getting married by now. Don't plan for him sooner!"

Xu Fen was stunned for a moment, and murmured: "Then you can find a local one too!"

From the bottom of her heart, she still wanted to find a daughter-in-law from their side, at least with no barriers to communication and similar taste in food.
