life struggle

As soon as Wu Xiaojun heard that there was something urgent, the moment Shao Yingying leaned back immediately appeared in front of his eyes, and he suddenly became nervous. Isn't today an auspicious day, when everything is inappropriate, what episode will happen, what bad things will happen, friendship dormitory I am afraid that the friendship between them will be difficult to maintain for a long time. The start is bad, the ominous omen may die halfway, or it may end without a problem. 【 】

Because the soft tissues of Shao Yingying's feet were contused, she and Liu Yunhui did not go up the mountain again, but had rested at the foot of the mountain and waited for the crowd. The others all climbed to the top of the mountain to enjoy the scenery of the temple, and returned to the mountain gate to gather.Everyone stood at the gate of the mountain. They didn't see Wu Xiaojun and Hu Lei, so Zhao Xiaozhou and Yan Gaofeng went to look for them separately.Zhao Xiaozhou followed the path when he came out, and went back directly to the Anwang Palace. He saw that Wu Xiaojun was closing his eyes tightly, clasping his hands together, praying very devoutly, and the inside of the palace was a very solemn and solemn place. Pulling Wu Xiaojun's clothes corner, he whispered to tell him to leave quickly.

Wu Xiaojun turned around, stared at Zhao Xiaozhou and asked eagerly, "What's going on, who had an accident again, and how is the situation?"

Seeing that Wu Xiaojun's eyes were wrong, Zhao Xiaozhou was very nervous. He pulled Xiaojun out of the hall and said with a smile on his face, "You are really scared by Shao Yingying's episode. You always think of the bad when you hear it, but it is not the case. In this way, everyone had a great time in the afternoon. Liu Youcai asked the big guys to take a group photo together. This trip was worthwhile and rewarding. It was a commemoration of the first friendship in the Friendship Dormitory. Let me come to you and hurry over , everyone else has been waiting anxiously."

Wu Xiaojun heaved a long sigh after hearing this, "You just said that there was something urgent, and I was so nervous, but at last it was safe and sound, and I felt more at ease. I'm afraid Shao Yingying and Liu Yunhui didn't come up, and there were not all the people." Wu Xiaojun paused After a while, I felt a little regretful, then thought about it, and then said, "But it doesn't matter, you might as well take a picture first, if the two of them don't go back to school early and are still waiting at the foot of the mountain, it won't be too late to go down and take a picture."

When the two returned to the mountain gate, all ten people were present. They invited a couple of tourists to take a few photos, and then they went down the mountain together.

Shao Yingying rested for a while, stood up, and tried to walk a few steps. Although there was a dull pain, it was not a serious problem. With the support of Liu Yunhui, she wobbled and walked down the mountain. Sit down and wait for the return of the large troops.Going down the mountain was not easy. Wu Xiaojun was worried and cautious, lest he accidentally step on the air and roll down, leaving his body covered in bruises and losing his body and soul. He saw Shao Yingying and Liu Yunhui sitting in front of the archway looking up, presumably When the situation is improving, a nostalgic heart will be much more at ease.

Everyone walked up to the front and formed a circle, asking about Shao Yingying's situation, and giving encouragement and comfort, which made Shao Yingying very embarrassed. She lowered her head and kept combing her short hair with her hands. With ruddy cheeks, she looked shy and cute, and kept saying, "It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay."

Seeing everyone chattering endlessly, Shao Yingying was ashamed and unable to resist, Wu Xiaojun said, "Everyone has arrived, it's not too early, the sun is about to set, let's hurry up and take a family photo here, and leave behind The beautiful moments in the Friendship Dormitory, opening a new door of hope together, and drawing a heavy stroke for the future life, it is the most meaningful chapter of our first visit to Pingxi and Ancient Hunting Park.”

Liu Youcai chose the location, prepared the camera, shouted left and right, and greeted everyone, "Okay, please turn your backs to the archway, women in front of men and behind, stand with raglan shoulders, and keep your eyes on me." Wu Xiaojun's words not only stood for Shao Yingying Relieve the tension, relieve the nervous and shy heart, and focus everyone in front of the camera.Shao Yingying looked much better, stood up and walked straight into the queue, standing between Liu Xiaoxia and Liu Yunhui.

Liu Youcai turned around and saw a middle-aged woman approaching with a smile, and said with a smile, "Sister, please take a picture of us. Thank you." The middle-aged woman agreed, and took the camera with both hands, "Okay, I'll look at you Students who are full of vigor and freedom are really enviable." Liu Youcai handed the camera to the middle-aged woman, and put his hands on Yang Shuli's shoulders mischievously.

The middle-aged woman looked at the formation, pointed to Wu Xiaojun and said, "You are tall and uncoordinated standing at the side of the team. Change positions with the boy next to you. Don't be too nervous and serious, be natural and relaxed." A little bit, a little lively. Okay, that's it. Look at me, and say 'Eggplant'"

Although Wu Xiaojun wanted to stand back and forth with Shao Yingying in his heart, the more he thought about it, the more nervous he felt, the more he couldn't move closer, so he had to stand by the side of the team.By mistake, the photographer clicked instead. Wu Xiaojun was delighted, and stood behind Shao Yingying, not daring to get close, keeping a visible distance, looking very unnatural, with his mouth tensed and his expression very serious. After being prompted, lean forward slightly, relax your facial expression, and straighten your posture.

I saw the shutter flash, and a "click" left a permanent memory.

Everyone was giggling, chatting and laughing happily, beaming with joy and joy, and sang along the way: Tomorrow will be better... Sing out your enthusiasm, stretch out your hands, let me embrace your dream, let me have your sincere face, let our smiles be full of joy. The pride of youth, devout prayers for tomorrow,... let us look forward to a better tomorrow.

Gradually, it was nightfall, and the lights were first lit, radiant.On both sides of Gufeng Road is the largest night market in Pingxi. There are many stalls, some selling snacks, needles, thread brains and other gadgets, some selling books and newspapers, and bicycle repairers. There are many stalls around each stall. There are many people, people come and go, there is an endless stream, so it is very lively.People naturally dispersed in twos and threes, walked around and looked around, and stopped to pick out favorite stalls.In front of a bookstall, many men and women gathered around to select books and bargain with the stall owner, and the business was quite good.Wu Xiaojun leaned down and found that most of them were popular novels and biographies of famous historical figures. He picked a few books and flipped through them. He picked up a set of Er Yuehe's imperial novel "Kangxi the Great" and asked, "Boss, How much is this set of books?"

The stall owner said politely, "A complete set of four books costs 15 yuan. The books are pretty good. They are very popular now and the price is not expensive. Let's buy a set."

Wu Xiaojun said, "Look, these are all pirated books. The quality of the paper is poor, and the printing is not good. Would it be cheaper, how about ten yuan?"

The stall owner said, "It's more than half of the original price. This price is low enough. Let's add some more. The minimum price is 12 yuan."

Wu Xiaojun thought to himself, it is more than three times lower than the genuine edition, even if it is sold for ten yuan, there is still a profit to be made, it seems that there is still a lot of room for the price of this pirated book, he pondered for a while, and put down the book gently, "I'm sorry, Boss, let me think about it and buy it another day."

At night, Wu Xiaojun tossed and turned, unable to sleep. He was always thinking about a problem. The current book prices are really high, and it has become a luxury for ordinary people to buy and read books. This has given birth to the existence of pirated books, and the business is booming.Although the paper quality of pirated books is poor, the fonts are not clear, typos often appear, and sometimes there are missing prints, etc., but the price is several times or even ten times cheaper than genuine books, and it does not affect the overall reading.For some children from rural areas who are eager to study, buying pirated books can greatly reduce economic expenses, and it is a good choice to compress the funds within the range they can afford.That being the case, why don't I also go to the wholesaler to investigate and understand the purchase price. If the profit margin is relatively large, I can also take time off to start a business selling pirated books, earn a small amount of money to supplement living expenses, and buy a few books to read. Look, it can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

Wu Xiaojun made up his mind, went to many book dealers, got a general grasp of the basic situation, and sent a letter to Qin Meixiang to let him know about the market situation in Xiangzhou. The reply he got made Wu Xiaojun even more excited, "Xiaojun , There are still a lot of students who buy pirated books here, mainly because the price is cheap. Anyway, it is not a reference book. After reading it once and being happy, it is thrown away. There is no need to spend a lot of money to buy genuine books. In fact, some of our students are doing it. , the effect is pretty good, the business is okay, you can do it with confidence, you will definitely not lose money, I can buy you some less goods first, as your initial start-up capital and source of goods, and wait for your good news. Earn money, Don’t forget to treat me as a guest when you go home during the Spring Festival.”

Wu Xiaojun focused on the market, how to do it, and where to do it.I bought [-] books from a bookseller for the first time, such as "Revolution of Learning", "Longing for Passion", contemporary "Jin Ping Mei", "Letter from Zeng Guofan's Family", Jia Pingwa's "Abandoned Capital", Yu Qiuyu's "Cultural Journey", "Corridor "Bridge Last Dream", "The Encyclopedia of Thick Black Studies" and so on, each of which is not much in number, as a kind of touchstone to explore the way.

On Saturday, everything was ready, and after dinner early, I borrowed a bicycle from fellow villager Wang Ping, brought books to the Gufeng Night Market, and found a place where there was no one to set up a stall, and spread out plastic paper to put the books.Unexpectedly, as soon as the books were laid out on the floor, a woman in her 50s who was pushing a cart and selling clothes came over, stopped the car, began to unload her clothes, and said loudly, "Young man, you just came here, this is my place. You can't put it here, you move to another place quickly, don't affect my business."

Wu Xiaojun was a little puzzled, this place belongs to everyone, whoever wants to use it can use it, how can it be called yours, "Auntie, I'm afraid it's not right to say that this is your place, after all, I came here first, why not?" Can drive me away."

"Young man, let me tell you, this place is managed by someone. We all have fixed stalls, and we have to pay the booth fee to the urban management every month. If you don't buy a booth in advance, you are a mobile vendor. The urban management will collect things and fine you." If you want to buy at the night market, you can go to both ends. Generally, the urban management does not accept things, and you can set up a street stall by paying two yuan for sanitation. It is not easy for you to look like a student. I just ignored him so much, he was sent away long ago, well, I won’t tell you.”

There are so many things to pay attention to when selling small things, it seems that this is not enough here, Wu Xiaojun had to put away the stall and walked back and forth twice, and finally settled down at the end of the northern section on the right side of the night market, which is not bad, there is no urban management Sanitation fees are required, and there are no other vendors to catch up. I sold it steadily all night, and the harvest was good. I sold 30 books, and I earned back the capital by only 170 yuan. Wu Xiaojun opened for the first time, and it was a success, and the harvest was not small. .In the following week, according to the types and quantities of books purchased by customers, he constantly adjusted and supplemented them, especially books suitable for young people and students, which were the most popular, and many people gathered around to read them every night , The cost of [-] yuan has been recovered, a net loss of [-] books, all the money sold is a net profit.

On this day, the books issued by Qin Meixiang have also arrived, there are more than 200 copies, written by famous authors such as Qiong Yao, Luo Lan, Liang Yusheng, etc., all suitable for young people to read, Wu Xiaojun was overjoyed and came to the night market happily , Neatly arrange the books.Because it was still early, I sat on the floor and picked up a book to read. At this time, a middle-aged man came from nowhere, looked familiar, gloomy, expressionless, and said, "Young man, what you sell is Pirated books are illegal. People in the industrial and commercial and cultural departments are now very strict. Once discovered, they will be confiscated and fined, or sent to the police station for detention. I advise you not to sell them here anymore. , hurry up, so as not to cause trouble for the upper body."
