Rebirth to create happiness

Chapter 18 20 Popcorn

When I got home after watching the movie, my father and mother hadn't come back yet. Zhao Zhizhi was a little strange. They usually went to bed very early at night.But Zhizhi had something on her mind, so she let go after a bit of entanglement.

Zhao Chenggang wanted to take a shower and sleep, but was mysteriously held back by Zhao Zhizhi.

"What's the matter?" Zhao Cheng was a little strange, but he hoped that Fangfang had something to convey to his old sister, so he stood still.

"Brother, did you find that Sister Fangfang treats you well today?" Zhao Zhizhi decided to use Xiao Fangfang as the talker. Who told her brother to do this?

"It's okay!" Zhao Cheng blushed a little, but after thinking about it, he found that Fangfang was very friendly to him today, as the old sister said.

"Then you said, do you want Sister Fangfang to look at you differently in the future?" Zhao Zhizhi was honest and seductive.

"Of course it's good." Zhao Cheng was very happy when he remembered that Fangfang would always smile at him and talk to him gently in the future.

"Brother, in fact, I told Sister Fangfang that you invited me tonight's movie." Seeing the effect gradually appearing, Zhao Zhizhi hurriedly confessed.

"Ah???" Zhao Cheng said in surprise and joy: "Then... Did Fangfang not care? Did she object? What else did she say?"

"No, because I told Sister Fangfang that you made some money by doing business with others, so we invited us to watch a movie. I told her that the money you earned was not wasted, so that you would not waste it yourself." Zhao Zhizhi explained.

"Ah??? Then... then... since when did I start a business with someone? And why did I waste money?" Zhao Cheng was puzzled, and also a little frustrated, my stupid old girl!I don't even know how to say a few good words for myself.

"Our corn business!" How stupid!Zhao Zhizhi almost covered her forehead.Although my elder brother is a bit lazy, he never brags or lies. This is a very good quality and is worth keeping.Zhizhi secretly thought.

"Oh! So it's the green corn business! Although it's a little small, it's barely a business!" Zhao Cheng nodded, and after thinking about it, he felt wrong, and said, "But that's your business! Mr. Sister! If Fangfang knows that it’s your business and I’m just running errands for you, she will definitely think we lied to her.” Zhao Cheng wailed.

"Look at how promising you are!" Zhao Zhizhi curled her lips and said, "Then you won't make these things real! Besides, I mean you're doing business with someone, but I didn't say who it is. Don't I, Zhao Zhizhi Is it human?"

That's true.Zhao Cheng nodded. After thinking about it, he still felt something was wrong, but he couldn't tell.

"Brother, I have a very good business right now, I wonder if you are interested?" Zhao Zhizhi's eyes lit up.

"Really? Do you make a lot of money?" Zhao Cheng's eyes lit up, but then darkened again: "I'm about to take the college entrance examination soon, and my mother definitely doesn't agree with us messing around. Besides, I only have a few dozen yuan. What can I do?" Zhao Cheng's face collapsed when he thought about going to school all day.

Zhao Cheng didn't realize that he had changed his opinion of Zhizhi unintentionally.In the past, Zhao Zhizhi was dark and thin, and she didn't like to talk, so people often ignored her existence.Now Zhao Zhizhi, although still dark and thin in appearance, has a strong aura that makes it difficult for people to ignore it.

"Brother, do you know that every girl has a hero complex, and Sister Fangfang is no exception." Zhao Zhizhi decided to help Zhao Cheng brainwash.

"What? What hero complex?" Zhao Cheng didn't understand.Zhao Cheng usually doesn't like to read books, and of course he doesn't like to read prose books, so he lacks a little romance.

Zhao Zhizhi looked at Zhao Cheng with contempt, and with his emotional intelligence, he still wanted to pursue Xiao Fangfang, no wonder he would be bloody in his previous life.After thinking about it, he decided to reform Zhao Cheng.Zhizhi went on to say: "Hero complex...it means worshiping capable people. Think about it...doesn't every girl hope that her boyfriend or husband is capable? People, just like boys want their girlfriends to be beautiful."

Zhao Cheng reviewed his own cognition and nodded.Of course boys hope to find a beautiful girl to be their girlfriend, just like Fangfang.If Fangfang becomes his girlfriend, take her out to show her buddies how to save face.Zhao Cheng's imagination was running wild.

"If you give a perfect score of [-], brother, your appearance can pass the test, and you can even reach [-]. But your connotation..." Zhao Zhizhi took a serious look at Zhao Cheng, and then said : "Judging now, at most five points, and these five points are given to you because of dad's face."

"Ah???" Zhao Cheng was stunned, why did he still have such a strange scoring method, and then smiled gratifiedly and said, "Sister, at least my brother has a score of 75, so it's a pass, right?"

"Hey!" Zhao Zhizhi burst out laughing, "Brother, you can't count like this. If you divide the sum of the two items by two, your total score is only 37 points, which is far behind."

"Ah??? That...that...that's just your nonsense, and there's no real evaluation method." Zhao Cheng felt that he couldn't hold back his face.

"Brother, listen to me first." Zhao Zhizhi stopped teasing him, and continued: "The most attractive time for a man is when he is working, and the most attractive time is when he is successful in his career. It was Sister Fangfang who told me. Sister Fangfang said that the man she likes may not be pretty enough, but he must be considerate and capable.” Zhao Zhizhi is not lying, Xiao Fangfang was chasing her in Zhao Cheng in her previous life. At that time, she did say such things to Zhao Zhizhi, explaining to Zhizhi why she didn't like Zhao Cheng.

at work?Well, Zhao Cheng does not doubt that he will definitely have a job in the future, but when his career is successful, Zhao Cheng feels that he may not have such a time in his life.Many children in the city will take over from their father or mother when they grow up. Even in their compound, there are a few children who have not been admitted to college when they grow up. Basically, their father or mother will continue to operate. Worked in government agencies.As for the type of boys Zhizhi said that Fangfang likes boys, Zhao Cheng never doubted that the old girl would lie. It is obvious to all that Zhao Zhizhi and Xiao Fangfang are often together.

It turns out that Fangfang likes capable boys!No wonder he doesn't pay much attention to me, Zhao Cheng sighed.

"Brother, do you want to have a successful career one day?" Zhao Zhizhi kissed him like a witch.

"Me??" Zhao Cheng glanced at himself suspiciously, and found that his heart was still longing for success.

"Brother, for this business, if we can successfully manufacture the machine, the money we can earn will be..." Zhao Zhizhi made a gesture of counting money, successfully attracting Zhao Cheng.

Since the corn business, Zhao Chengcheng chose to believe in his old sister.Zhizhi said that she can make a lot of money even if she can make money, but now Zhizhi is saying that she will definitely make money. What a beautiful "money" scene it should be!But soon after the Chinese New Year, the college entrance examination will be held. Although based on my own academic performance, the college entrance examination is just a companion for the exam.But for my mother, the college entrance examination is a very important thing.Without the support of my parents, I only have a few dozen dollars, so what kind of business can I do.Hey. . . . . . !Nothing is impossible without money!Zhao Cheng was lost.I used to think about playing like crazy all day long, and when I had a little money, I bought artillery and so on.

Although the 40 yuan on my body is not too small, it is the first time I have so much wealth when I grow up. This is all earned by my sister. I followed my sister to send corn for a few days, and Zhao Chengcai knew the money. The fastest thing is to do business. My parents have worked for more than ten years, and their salary is only two hundred yuan a month. My sister took me to sell corn for seven or eight days, earning at least 300 yuan.

"You don't have to worry about other things, you just think about whether you want to do it or not." Zhao Zhizhi didn't give up, and always wanted to pull her brother into her chariot.

"I want to do it." Zhao Cheng thought for a while, and felt that he was really interested in doing business.My academic performance is not good enough, and I will definitely find a job after graduating from high school.

"Okay then, come to my room." Zhao Zhizhi decided to let go and have a big fight with her brother.

Zhao Cheng entered Zhizhi's room for the first time, and found that the place where the old girl lived was really narrow, except for a bed, there was only room for a desk.Unlike my own room, not to mention spacious, it is also transparent from north to south.For the first time, Zhao Cheng felt a little sorry for his old sister in his heart.

Zhizhi didn't pay attention to Zhao Cheng's mood, and sat down at the desk as soon as she entered the room, took out a blank sheet of paper from the drawer, and started drawing seriously.She didn't study art systematically, and the lines she drew were not very straight at the beginning, but gradually she found the feeling, the more she drew, the better she got.

"Can you find someone to make such a machine?" Zhao Zhizhi drew a model of the machine, which is the popcorn machine of later generations.

There was also popcorn in the 80s, but it was popped by some special craftsmen pulling the machine to the doorstep during the holidays.An iron bump with a round belly, with a pressure measuring device.Put the dry corn kernels into the iron lump, seal the opening tightly, and burn the fire underneath. When the pressure inside the iron lump reaches a certain level, turn off the fire, open the lid, and the popcorn will be popped with a "bang".

It's a pity that the popcorn popped by such a machine has a bit of an iron smell and is a bit hard, which is not very delicious.Zhao Zhizhi's painting is a popcorn machine in the 21st century, a must-have equipment at the entrance of a movie theater. The popcorn that pops is sweet, fluffy and delicious, and it is a girl's favorite snack.

"My sister, the blueprint of the machine needs to be drawn with parameters. It just looks like this. I don't know what material to use to make it?" Zhao Cheng looked at the blueprint seriously and said to Zhizhi.Zhao Cheng is naturally interested in mechanical things, and he can basically understand Zhizhi's drawings.But Zhizhi didn't draw the parameters, so he couldn't be sure of his guess.

"This is a popcorn machine. It's just a sketch right now. If you can make it, I'll give you the complete drawing later." Zhao Zhizhi said seriously.

"Well, I'll go find Yu Wenhao tomorrow morning. His father works in a machinery factory, so he should be able to make it." Zhao Cheng said seriously after thinking about it.Seeing the seriousness of the old girl's work, and thinking about Fangfang's requirements for her boyfriend, he felt that he should be more proactive and diligent in order to win Fangfang's favor.
