The history of the miser's struggle

Chapter 42

? "The fat man asked timidly.

Yang Jian couldn't tell what it was like in his heart. Someone was expelled from school, and it was because of them.If he could do it all over again, he would notify the counselor as soon as the chairman knew about it.Ignoring it and letting it develop to the worst result, there is more or less a vengeful mentality, although at the moment he also feels that it is a bit too much, but after all, not everything can be repeated.

"I turned 18 last month, so let's celebrate my birthday." Yang Jian casually made an excuse.

Fatty's attention was diverted in an instant, and he shouted, "Really? You didn't notify us? It's really embarrassing."

"It's nothing special, and everyone is busy preparing for the exam." Yang Jian, who slightly lowered his eyes and said these words, seemed really embarrassed.

"To celebrate your birthday, you must have a cake." Zhuo Xiaofan laughed heartily.

38. New business opportunities...

Ever since Lin Jianan took Yang Jian there once, Yang Jian has fallen in love with this hot pot restaurant. Whenever he has the opportunity to eat out, he will definitely come here. The quality and price are really good value.

This shop seems to have been open for many years. The owner is a healthy old man. Yang Jian has heard Lin Jianan call him Old Wang, but when he asked, Lin Jianan didn't know his name.When the store is free, they talk to Lao Wang, and Lao Wang is willing to chat a little more, telling them whether the hot pot is good or not depends on the base and dipping sauce, but how to do it is a commercial secret and it is impossible disclosed to others.It's not that Lao Wang is boasting. There is really no hot pot restaurant in this area with a radius of tens of miles that tastes better than this place.

The three of them came to eat with the mentality of wanting to relax, and the fat man ordered a dozen beers as soon as they sat down.Zhuo Xiaofan looked at Yang Jian, and said with a smile, "Fatty, if you order like that, Yang Jian will feel sorry for you to death."

Although the fat man is a jealous person, he is also a person who is easy to soften his heart, because the aquatic man's affairs are a little depressed. At this time, he slapped the table and said boldly, "Today must have a good drink, at worst, I will invite you."

Yang Jian smiled embarrassedly and said, "It's okay, I can afford it."

At this time, a waiter who came with a beer box came to their table, smiled at Yang Jian, put down the beer, and said hello, "Mr. Yang, long time no see."

Yang Jian took a closer look, and it turned out to be Xu Ziyi.

The fat man laughed loudly, "Mr. Yang, I met a student on this occasion."

Zhuo Xiaofan glared at him and said, "Why are you drunk before you drink?" This kind of occasion is obviously not a good occasion, Yang Jian is a teacher who is going to drink heavily, and Xu Ziyi is a student who dropped out of school to work.

Yang Jian looked at Xu Ziyi again. Although he was tall and big, he was still childish, and calluses had already been polished on his hands, which was in great contrast to the thin skin and tender flesh in the make-up class before.

Yang Jian instantly regretted her original impulse. Is it really right to help such a young child run away from home?But he dismissed this idea in an instant, because the old Wang who was at the side suddenly said, "This kid is really good, he can calculate quickly, and he is willing to endure hardships. If you want to keep it, you can keep it."

Because it was Yang Jian who introduced Xu Ziyi, I was relieved to hear this, but this hot pot restaurant is a small workshop restaurant after all, it's okay for a temporary transition, but it's not an option in the long run.

"Well, thank you Teacher Yang. Uncle Wang is very kind to me, at least much better than my mother." Xu Ziyi suddenly became a little childish when facing someone he was familiar with and believed to be trustworthy.

Yang Jian didn't know how to comfort him, so she just smiled and asked casually, "Has she ever looked for you?" It's not far from home, and if you want to find it, you can't find it.

"Where does she have time to look for me?" The child said angrily, "I went back to see her secretly once, but there was no one at home, so I went to my father. Sure enough, I saw my mother beating that woman at the door of the building. My father hid By the upstairs window, I only know that I smoke and dare not come down, I don’t think she will suffer for a while, so I just let her go and come back by myself.”

Xu Ziyi didn't seem to have said these words to anyone else, Fatty, Zhuo Xiaofan and Old Wang beside him were a little dazed.I don't know why this child only trusts Yang Jian, but because of his self-esteem, he doesn't want to bother others. Although he has Yang Jian's mobile phone, he hasn't called much. When he saw him at this time, he was afraid that he would not find him after a while, so he hurried I'm done talking.

"It's better for him to stay here than to go back to his own home." The fat man sighed and said.

"I'm going to get busy first." Xu Ziyi looked at Yang Jian again, turned and left with his head down.

Yang Jian wanted to hold him back, but because she was only a student and couldn't help him and didn't know what to say, for the first time she hated herself for being helpless.

The atmosphere was a bit depressing, Zhuo Xiaofan opened a bottle of wine and filled it up for several people, he raised his eyes inadvertently, and saw a few young and beautiful girls walking in from the door, the small shop suddenly felt like it was shining brightly.

"Come here, come here." Zhuo Xiaofan quickly stood up and greeted them.

The fat man was dumbfounded, "Is this okay?"

"What's wrong with my own girlfriend." When Yang Jian spoke at the end, she could see clearly that these were Zhuo Xiaofan's girlfriend Yuan Yin and the girls in her dormitory, including the legend. Zhong Yang Jian's prospective girlfriend, Yu Xinxin.

Yang Jian suddenly felt a little dizzy, and then remembered Zhuo Xiaofan's weird smile when he said that he was going out for dinner.

Yu Xinxin was wearing a T-shirt, denim skirt and canvas shoes, with a ponytail and a cake in her hand.When she saw Yang Jian, she took the initiative to smile and sat beside Yang Jian, while the fat man became envious and jealous.

"Why are you here?" Yang Jian asked in pretended surprise.

Yu Xinxin was generous, smiled and said, "Why, you don't want me to come?"

"No." Yang Jian smiled bitterly.

"This kid is too rude, ignore him." Zhuo Xiaofan pulled Yuan Yin beside him, the two exchanged winks, Yuan Yin quickly took the cake and put it on the table.

"Boy, thank you, and thank you all sisters." Yang Jian finally got on the road, and made a circle with his fists in his arms, which immediately attracted a burst of ridicule.

Yuan Yin really acted like a big sister, and reprimanded, "You're still a big sister, aren't you too good at pretending to be cute? Xinxin put a lot of thought into this cake, because Xiaofan called temporarily, and it was too late to make it She thinks this one is not fresh and that one is not good-looking, so she finally picked it out. Are you satisfied with it?"

How dare Yang Jian say that she is dissatisfied?Yu Xinxin didn't ask for anything, but just treated him better. The pressure around her and her own guilt made Yang Jian's expression a little unnatural.

To hide his embarrassment, Yang Jian raised his glass and said, "Thank you, brothers and sisters." Then he drank it down with his head raised.

I haven't eaten much food, and several rounds of wine have passed.Yang Jian was still an innocent boy at this time, and he couldn't keep his expression and heart beating after a few drinks, so his cheeks were slightly red at this moment.

The fat man also drank a lot. He patted Yang Jian on the shoulder and said, "Brother, you see that you are so proud of yourself, and everything is going well in love and school. What are you worrying about?"

"Do you think the aquatic man deserved what he deserved?" Yang Jian asked suddenly.

The fat man also suddenly got stuck.

Yang Jian sighed, and continued, "There is also that child, I always feel responsible for him."

Yuan Yin's ears were sharp, she turned around and asked Zhuo Xiaofan, "Which child?"

Zhuo Xiaofan briefly explained the matter, and the girls' eyes began to turn red.Yuan Yin wiped the corner of her eyes and said, "Then we have to find a way, otherwise the child is too pitiful." At the age of 15, he was supposed to be ready to enter high school, but dropped out of school because of busy livelihood and family worries.

"Are there no other relatives?" Yu Xinxin asked in a low voice.

Yang Jian shook his head, "It seems not."

"Fortunately, the boss seems to take good care of him, let him be an apprentice here, and he will have the opportunity to study further in the future, right?" Zhuo Xiaofan comforted Yuan Yin beside him.

Yang Jian had taught Xu Ziyi as a tutor, so he naturally knew about his situation.In addition to a large drop in homework, Xu Ziyi's original grades were not very good. It was only because he knew how to work hard that he managed to maintain an upper-middle level.Such children can now work in hot pot restaurants, but where is the future?

Yu Xinxin thought for a while, and then said, "You don't have to study. Now that you're a boss with primary school education, there are more people who graduated from college and work part-time. Everyone has their own destiny. Yang Jian, don't think too much."

The fat man quickly expressed his support, "Being a boss makes more money than working part-time."

"But how many years does it take to save enough money to be a boss?" Zhuo Xiaofan sighed, "Why do you feel the pressure of graduation all of a sudden? Let's talk about it after four years of playing."

Yuan Yin pinched him, expressing her dissatisfaction with such useless remarks.

They discussed like this, but they reminded Yang Jian. Yang Jian made up his mind and said while thinking, "Being a boss or something seems to be a way out."

Yu Xinxin burst out laughing, "You're just a kid, not a few years older than others, and you want to be the boss?"

Yang Jian ignored her and continued to analyze in a low voice, "Look, there are less than ten tables in this store now, and there is basically no decoration cost. Twenty to thirty thousand is enough for materials and equipment, plus various documents and half a year's rent. You can open a small hot pot restaurant with [-] to [-] yuan. The cost can be recovered in half a year at the worst."

"and then?"

Yang Jian looked back at the shop owner over the counter, and asked loudly, "Boss, do you still want to open a branch?"

The time is between lunch and dinner, there are not many customers in the shop, old man Wang is lying on his stomach
