Long Aotian, who is in the third grade of primary school

"me too."

Lala took her share of the cake and said casually, "The school is on holiday for a day, and my mother will take me back to the countryside to spend this Mid-Autumn Festival with everyone."

"So everyone spent time with their own families?"

Tang Yanli muttered, and took the last piece from Chen An...

"Eh? Student Chen An, your cake."

Tang Yanli, who thought she had no part, looked in surprise at Chen An, who was empty-handed.

"I can't stand greasy cream, just eat it."

Chen An looked at the cleanly divided cake with some emotion, and thought about the last time he ate the cake when he came back. It was a very long time ago. He cunningly ate all the fruits on the cake, and then pushed the cream and cake to my own mother.

"How is this possible."

Tang Yanli shook her head again and again, and pushed the cake in her hand to Chen An, but Chen An pushed it back.

"That's all I want."

As he spoke, Chen An grabbed a handful of the fifteen small candles that came with the cake.

"This stuff can't be eaten."

Tang Yanli thought for a while, then picked up the cake paper, divided the cake in two, and pushed the bigger one to Chen An, then stuffed the smaller one into her mouth, Chen An also didn't like it when she saw this. Can only accept.

"Gu..."

Looking at the finished cake in her hand, Luli could only lower her head unwillingly.

"Why do you suddenly feel like you've lost...?"

Heixia glanced at Lu Li who was feeling a bit lost for some reason in doubt, then looked at Chen An and asked in confusion: "Dark Lord, what do you want these candles for? If there is a need, I still have a hundred or so candles here." , are left over from eating cakes, you can take them as you like.”

"This is really a big help. I'm very short of money recently."

Chen An unceremoniously accepted the small candles that Heixia found out, and said casually: "I see that the northern elementary school where I am located has a lot of rich people recently, and I want to use these candles to make some small money from them."

"Wait!"

Heixia was startled and quickly warned: "Dark Lord, pay attention to your words, I know that being a righteous hero is hard work without salary, but you can't threaten elementary school students with pocket money by dropping wax. You!"

"Where do you want to go?"

Chen An said angrily: "I plan to use these candles to make lanterns and sell them to earn some pocket money!"

Tang Yanli's eyes lit up, and she quickly posted it over, bewitching, "Student Chen An, if you are short of money, I... I'll go, what are you doing!"

Holding a branch, Luli posed in a fencing style and said solemnly: "I'm thinking about whether I can use sword dancing to show off to help classmate Chen An attract guests, or else, you can be my practice object, I promise 'absolutely' You won't 'miss' and spit out the cake in your stomach."

Chapter 133

It wasn't until recently when Chen An opened the bottom of the bed, intending to find some pocket money for emergency use, that he realized that he had relied on the spirit of no desire and no desire in the past few years, ignoring the temptations of spicy noodles, shrimp crackers, chocolate, soda, etc. The pocket money that has been accumulated continuously, the whole '56 yuan and seventy-eight cents' has been squandered by him without restraint.

His mother, Chen Xuemei, would give him 'five yuan' as pocket money every week, which is his main source of income. He has been saving this money for the past few years, but ever since Luli broke into his life, A series of bizarre adventures followed, which made him dizzy.

Knights of the Ring, Dark Lord Sauron, Mice Love Rice, Black Eden, R'lyeh Text, Unsealed Succubus Christie Lilith, etc.;

In order to cope with these crises, he can only continue to buy batteries and BB bombs to arm himself, and these expenditures also continue to invest his already considerable "huge money" and squander it to a pitiful seventy-eight cents up.

Especially the Desert Eagle, which has been with him for a long time on his waist, makes him a little fond of it. As a five-dollar plastic pistol, it bears too many burdens that should not be borne. The life of the gun body has almost come to an end. Yes, it has to be replaced.

All of the above will cost money, and there are still 30 years before he is invincible at the age of 22. With such a long time span, Chen An does not know what thrilling adventures he will experience in the future, so it is still necessary to find a way Get him a sum of money to support the huge expenses in the future.

"It's such a big deal, why didn't you say it earlier."

Hei Xia clapped his hands and said, "I can directly..."

"Stop."

Chen An rolled his eyes and interrupted: "I will not accept any assistance from you. Once this opening is opened, the nature of the alliance will change accordingly."

The black man who was stopped thought about it seriously, and then clapped his hands and said: "Since we can't directly help the money, then everyone should come and find a way to help our Dark Lord. It is said that three cobblers are better than Zhuge Liang. We have a full six elementary school students with great prospects here! If everyone brainstorms casually, it is still more than enough to top two Zhuge Liang."

"A few of us add up, it's not like one drags five, at most one Wuhou who can do 7K7K."

Chen An pouted, and didn't have any expectations for these elementary school students who wanted to help him make money. After all, making money is not something that elementary school students should think about at all.

"Maybe we can do some summer crafts!"

Hei Xia took the lead in giving a quick way to earn money, and he said with a look of anticipation: "I have long wanted to try various handicrafts! What kind of hard money is it that you earn with your own hands? Feeling, don't you want to know?"

"That's a good point, but it's not summer vacation or winter vacation, they won't pay primary school students."

Lala curled her lips and said: "If you really want to find a job that pays quickly, I know one that can help those elementary school students who have money but don't want to work hard to do their homework. Chen An should do it with your ability." It can be done easily, do you want to try it?"

"Help other elementary school students with their homework..."

Chen An shook his head boredly: "I don't like working for elementary school students, it always feels too weird."

Although it is possible to do to others what you don't want, transfer these disliked jobs to the succubus Lilith and enjoy the benefits, but Lilith's homework may not even be satisfactory to employers at the elementary school level.

"That...Chen An, if you don't mind..."

Luli took out her cute little bear wallet, and looked at Chen An eagerly, she had plenty of money, as long as Chen An asked, she would do as much as she wanted.

"I mind, really, really mind!"

Chen An looked at Lu Li with hands crossed and protested with embarrassment: "I really don't mind being raised, but I do mind your age! Let's talk about this kind of thing when we grow up!"

Luli withdrew her wallet regretfully, and then everyone looked at Dr moster, who seemed to be the most money-giver among all the elementary school students present.

Feeling the refreshing feeling of being the focus, Tang Yanli cleared her throat, stood up, raised her chest and said, "Ahem, I do know that there are many ways to make money the fastest, and there are almost no side effects, and there is no need to work hard to make money. , originally these methods are the secrets of Black Eden, and cannot be told to outsiders, but—Chen An is an exception."

Contrary to the surprised and expectant expressions of the others, Chen An waved his hands with a lack of interest and said, "You don't need to speak, I know it must be a very criminal idea, but let's hear how much punishment it is."

"First of all, it's the easiest one. Our primary school students earn a very good price difference by falsely declaring prices!"

Tang Yanli clenched her fists and excitedly said to Chen An: "For example, when the school just started, didn't the school ask to buy designated extracurricular tutoring books? The teacher would also ask the primary school students to ask their parents for fees ranging from 20 yuan to [-] yuan. Turn it over to the teacher, and we can make a big fuss about it at this time!"

Chen An looked at Tang Yanli with some subtle eyes, and she was really punished as he expected. Yanli, who didn't understand Chen An's eyes, wanted to continue talking excitedly.

"The teacher asks for 15 yuan for extra-curricular tutoring books, and we ask parents for [-] yuan! Generally speaking, careless parents will not find out, but we must be careful that if the asking price is too high, our parents may go to our classmates. Find out the price, and what is waiting for us is not preaching, but old Beijing cloth shoe hands beating pork!”

Luli, who was already stunned, weakly raised her hand and asked: "But our class has already bought extracurricular tutoring books, what should we do? Are you lying to your parents that you have to pay the fees in advance?"

"stupid!"

Tang Yanli put her hips on her hips and said, "You need to open your mind. This method can be applied not only to extracurricular tutoring books, but also to various things, such as telling your parents that you want to buy stationery for five yuan, but in fact the stationery is only one Two yuan, that's right, it's best to tell your parents about your recent good grades when you ask for money, so that adults will be much more refreshed when they pay, and they may even take the initiative to give more."

"..."

"..."

"..."

Glancing at the silent crowd, she seemed to be affected by the atmosphere, and Tang Yanli lowered her voice, and said in a weak tone: "Another way is to ask your parents to let them give you money and say that you want to eat outside. Eat breakfast, but this method requires parents to have a higher degree of affection for themselves. If parents are willing to give it, they can embezzle the breakfast money to other places. When they are hungry, they can go home and eat something else. It’s the fastest and easiest way to get money that I know of.”

"..."

Chen An, who didn't know what to say, could only sigh, and patted Tang Yanli's shoulder: "As expected of you, the real punishment, you will be judged more and more in the future, and you are really the savior of the wicked, I don't know How can you rest assured?"

These tricks that Tang Yanli was obviously tired of when she was a primary school student were also carried forward by adults in the workplace. I don't know how many people got a free private room and a pair of beautiful silver bracelets after playing with them.

It seems that I have to pay close attention to this disturbing pair of ponytails in the future, otherwise, let alone living in a big villa as a friend, I might have to go to prison to visit her.

"Actually, I also have a way to make money, but my method is rather old-fashioned."

Pava scratched his head, and said to Chen An: "We can collect waste together, the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming, this is a reunion day, in order to comfort those family members who can never be reunited, people in our area will burn some" Paper money' We can buy the leftover 'paper ash' at a lower price and then sell it to the recycling station at a relatively high price, earning the difference."

"As expected of you, Pava, you have a solid idea."

Chen An's eyes lit up slightly: "The people in the waste recycling station are willing to pay a very good price for the layer of tin foil on the paper money. If we each have a sack, and then walk around the streets to collect the paper ashes, we should be able to earn enough. Reserve funds for the next few adventures."

Pava scratched the back of his head a little happy and a little embarrassed.

"Wait a minute, recycled paper ashes walking around the streets? Chen An, don't you have to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival?"

Luli asked puzzledly: "If you want to buy a large amount of paper ashes, you can only run out on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, and then walk around the streets to find people to ask for it? Otherwise, the paper ashes may be bought by other people's houses the next day." The child got there first."

"Emmm, the Mid-Autumn Festival in my family is a bit special."

Chen An rubbed his chin, thinking back to the Mid-Autumn Festival in previous years, he and his mother spent it together. Compared with the lively reunion in other families, the Mid-Autumn Festival between the two of them was indeed a bit chilly, but because of this, he had enough More time to go out and run outside.

"Well, this collection of ashes can be taken into consideration, but this is what I'm going to do now."

After looking left and right for a while, Chen An found two ordinary A4 papers from the table on one side, and under the doubtful eyes of his friends, he folded the A4 papers in half, then in half, and continued to fold them into 8 equal parts. Fold it in half into 16 equal parts, then change the direction and fold it into 16 equal parts again, then fold it obliquely several times, do the same with the other A4 paper, and then use double-sided tape to connect the two folded papers together Together, finally unfold...

Under his skillful weaving, a small lantern the size of two fists appeared in front of the friends.

"Then, light the little candles that come with this birthday cake."

After Chen An lit the small candle of the cake with a lighter, he tilted the candle slightly so that the melted wax dripped into the bottom of the small lantern, and then pressed the small candle into the unsolidified wax to make it stand Get up and fasten at the point of the little lantern.

Seeing the little lantern lit up in front of her, Luli took out the little bear purse with bright eyes again. Although this lantern looks ordinary, it was made by classmate Chen An, and it would cost dozens of yuan to buy it. Take it down.

"Are you going to sell this kind of paper lanterns that look cold...very ordinary?"

Heixia looked at Chen An hesitantly.

"That's right, this is a business opportunity I just found recently."

Chen An stroked his chin and said, "We have a tradition of chasing the moon. On the night of Mid-Autumn Festival, a group of parents will take their children to the street and parade in the direction of the moon. Those children will definitely need this kind of cuteness." Where's the little lantern of love?"

"You are right, but not only you thought of it, but also those peddlers."

Heixia shook his head and said: "And their lanterns are bigger, brighter, and more fashionable than yours, and some of them can even sing. Everyone will only buy theirs."

"Ha, of course I've considered that."

Chen An raised his index finger: "My Ping'an small lanterns are priced at two yuan each. Compared with those lanterns that cost seven or eight yuan or more than ten yuan, the main focus is on the cost-effectiveness of killing hawkers."

"Two dollars each?"

Lala frowned and said, "Can you recover the cost? A lantern needs at least two sheets of A4 paper. Even if there are relatively low-quality A4 papers, two sheets will cost 3 or 4 cents, right? Even if you don't count Labor costs, in addition to candles, glue, thread, handles for lanterns, etc.”

"Yes, but even so, I still make a lot of money. The candles are sponsored by Heixia. I can ask Teacher Baihe for the paper. She can give me a bunch of useless waste paper from school, and then use these papers to make Make a paper tube, connect the paper tube and the lantern with a thread, and then it becomes a small lantern that can be sold.”

Chen An snapped his fingers, and said affirmatively: "From now on, I just need to set up a small stall in a place with a lot of traffic near the elementary school, and I can open it to earn him a pocket money for future adventures."

"I didn't expect that the leftover candles in my family could help so much."

Heixia scratched the back of his head, showing a naive smile, causing Luli to stand up anxiously, and said to Chen An: "Student Chen An, I have a lot of leftover candles at home, I'll give them to you right away." Go get it!"

Seeing Luli rushing out in a hurry, Chen An shrugged and said, "Then I'll go first too, I have to rush home to fold the lanterns."

"I'm in a hurry, too."

Tang Yanli stood up with twinkling eyes, biting Luli's back tightly, and hurriedly left the alliance.

Although her family doesn't look at birthdays when they eat cakes, she doesn't like to eat cakes. There are no cake candles that can be used at home.

But she is rich!You can wrap all the paper lanterns directly, and I am not afraid that Chen An will be distressed because there is no business.

Seeing that everyone was contributing money and efforts to make suggestions for their own business, Chen An accepted the goodwill with a smile. In fact, it was not illegal, and he knew a few easier ways to make money, and the easiest one was Sell ​​scrap iron.

The demand for "iron" in the scrap recycling station is very high, and there are quite a lot of scrap "iron" scattered on the streets, but the scrap iron that is easy to get has already been picked up, and the remaining scrap iron is not unavailable to elementary school students It's just that you can't take it away at all.

However, restrictions do not exist for him who owns Lilith and Celestial Beast, and even looking at the whole world, there is no iron that he cannot take away.

It's just that no matter whether Lilith or Tiannv Beast is asked to do this kind of thing, it makes him feel reckless, so after much deliberation, it is better to decide to sell lanterns.

"Very wise choice."

Lala who caught up from behind looked at Chen An hesitantly and said, "Whether it's the sacred plan or the purple bracelet, it's best not to use it casually, it's too attractive to adults ...you never know what kind of dirty tricks those grown-ups will resort to because of their desire to keep it for themselves."

"I think so too, but I will use it without hesitation when it's time to use it."

Chen An chuckled and said, "I still have a little confidence in protecting these two."

"Your confidence, as always, makes my eyes seriously ill."

La La shook her head and said: "But put these things aside, what I care about is what you said about the Mid-Autumn Festival being special; because my Mid-Autumn Festival is also very special, it's obviously a day of reunion, but my father I will be caught and taken to the research institute to be studied, and only my mother and I will go back to my grandpa's house for the holiday... Is it the same for you?"

"Emmm, my situation is worse than yours."

Chen An shrugged and said: "I follow my mother's surname, and I don't have any grandparents. I only have grandparents but I have never met my grandpa. My grandma will be taken to the big city by my son during the Mid-Autumn Festival." The Mid-Autumn Festival is here, so in previous years, I spent the festivals with my mother, just the two of us."

"Then why don't you follow...uh..."

Lala subconsciously covered her mouth.

"Actually, I don't know why my mother disagrees with grandma and goes to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival with her older brother or younger brother."

Chen An yawned, waved his hands in boredom and said, "Although I don't know, I can guess something. I guess it's because my 'grandpa' couldn't accept that his daughter had a 'wild species' who didn't know where. Mom has a stubborn personality and doesn't want to reveal what irresponsible scumbag made me, so she was kicked out of the house by my grandfather."
