The leisurely life of rebirth.

Fang Monan hung up the phone, and as soon as he turned around, he saw Mr. Lin standing not far away. 'Ho' startled her and patted her chest.

"Grandpa Lin stood behind him and kept silent. People who are scary will die."

"You'll still be afraid. The tone is really serious. It's 1000 million dollars." Mr. Lin looked at her inscrutablely.

"The emperor is not short of hungry soldiers, so of course we should give them some comfort." Now that he heard it, Fang Monan simply admitted that there would be more escorts in this way.

"You little ghost, I just heard about the Japanese stock market?" Mr. Lin knocked her on the head. Everyone has secrets, and he has a lot of secrets in his heart.As long as it doesn't hinder others, he doesn't care about other people's business, and he also wants to uncover the mystery himself. [

"Japan! It's okay, I'm just going to earn some pocket money.'" Fang Monan let go now, and the matter has nothing to hide now, it has exposed a lot, and now he has no scruples, so he simply said it generously .

"How do you earn some pocket money? You should earn all of it." Mr. Lin said angrily.

Fang Monan saw that he was no different from a robber. In fact, not only Mr. Lin, but almost all the old people in the same age group as him in the country, especially those who had been on the battlefield, fought against the Japanese, and even middle-aged people all hated the Japanese. Have a very strong sense of hatred, this kind of hatred is engraved in the bone, dissolved in the blood, that kind of old people have an unforgettable hatred for the Japanese, even in the 21st century, except for children who are ignorant , most people are still very hostile to Japan, but this emotion is not often revealed.

"It's not the time yet. There will be a bigger opportunity in a few years." Fang Monan said with a smile.

"Tell me about Japan in detail." Mr. Lin said anxiously, excited just thinking about earning little Japan's money.

"It's complicated to say, and I can't explain it clearly at the moment. If you really want to make it clear, I suggest you read more books on finance. Cheng Shigui sent a lot of these books, all of which are in original English." Fang Monan said.

"That's it! I'll read the book later, so tell me something first. I also know the basics of the stock market. It's just that it's been a long time, so I don't know how much I remember." Mr. Lin was a little disappointed, but he still wanted to get a general idea as soon as possible. .

When Fang Monan heard that he had a financial foundation, he said shallowly: "The Japanese economy is developing too fast, and there are already signs of being separated from the real economy, and there are also signs of a bubble economy. The whole of Japan is in an unprecedented period of prosperity. , the Japanese government attaches more importance to real estate and virtual property than to industry and major enterprises. Although the price of real estate is high, the stock market and property market are falsely prosperous, but that is only virtual. Once the price of real estate drops or there is a difference In this situation, the entire Japanese economy will fall into chaos and then collapse. I believe that by then, speculators, large and small, and even the US government will not give up this opportunity. Go back ten years." The corners of her mouth curled up and she smiled.

"You are really poisonous." Mr. Lin looked at her and said, "But I like it."

"Hmm! It's not that I'm poisonous, it's the US government that eats meat, and I just drink some soup along with it." Compared with the US government, she is already very benevolent.

Mr. Lin was silent. The economics and financial knowledge he learned when he was young has been thrown into the Pacific Ocean. If it was someone else, he would just laugh.If there is a shadow of the U.S. government, then there are many possibilities.If it can make this country or the small country that once caused the people of the country to suffer a big loss, the economy will go backwards.It was too late for him to be happy. Knowing that Fang Monan had a talent for business, it seemed that this was just a side dish. What shocked him even more was her views on finance and economy.It seemed that he also had to take a good look at books on economics and finance. In the days to come, they often discussed the Japanese economy through newspapers and magazines they sent.

After all, Mr. Lin is an aristocrat and an elite educated, so he understood everything quickly, "Actually, to put it bluntly, it's caused by the greed of human nature. It's like a carrot hanging in front of a donkey. You can see it, but you can't eat it."

My aunt accidentally saw that Mr. Lin was so obsessed with finance, and gradually became interested, but not now, when she is working hard in the college entrance examination, she must focus on other things.However, this also indirectly affected her application for university entrance exams. In Fang Monan's view, learning and applying are two different things.This is a personal wish, and she can't interfere.

************************

Grandma is always frowning these days, Fang Monan asked: "Grandma, what are you thinking? You always frown."

Grandma said: "The money has dropped a bit these days, I'm wondering if I should do some other tricks."

"Oh! Are there many people following the trend?" Fang Monan raised his eyebrows and asked.

"It's not following the trend! You know that the people in the county obviously have some spare money, and they all want to eat some good things, such as pastry pancakes, fried glutinous rice dumplings, fried vegetable corners, fried sugar cakes, deep-fried dough sticks, etc., but they took away many of us. I lost a lot of customers." Grandma muttered.

"Has grandma thought about how to improve it?" Fang Monan asked. [

"Here, Nannan, I have some ideas that are not perfect, so you can refer to them when you tell them." Grandma's eyes lit up when she thought of her granddaughter's intelligence.Seeing her nodding, she said, "Your grandma and I have no other skills, but we have two skills in making pasta, and green onion pancakes with mung bean noodles are even better."

A flash of light flashed in Fang Monan's eyes, it seemed that grandma really got into it with all her heart, and knew to start with what she was good at, rather than blindly following the trend. "That's a good idea, but grandma, are you busy?"

"Why can't you be too busy? Now your grandma Liang and my aunt can do it! Except for me sending steamed buns, selling steamed buns, and steaming steamed buns. The two of them can make it up." Grandma said again: "I'm too busy ? Seeing Qian grow wings and fly away, my heart aches!"

Pancakes, Fang Monan thought of the famous snack pancakes. She said the practice of pancakes based on her grandma’s pancakes, “Eggs, fried dough sticks or crispy “guo grate”, served with noodle sauce, chopped green onion, Chili (optional) is used as a condiment, which tastes salty and fragrant."

"This is fine! It's best to serve as breakfast to satisfy your hunger and provide sufficient nutrition." Grandma clapped her fingers and said, "The market price of an egg is about [-] cents. If you go to Dachengzi for wholesale, it will definitely be cheaper. You still don't want fried dough sticks. , otherwise the cost is too high, the price will be high, and it will be miserable if it cannot be sold. Let’s spread all the pancakes, and the rest of the side dishes can be made by ourselves.”

"Actually, there is no need for Da Chengzi's family. The eggs on the farm and in the space are almost overflowing. If we rely on our family to eat alone, when will it be a head." Fang Monan said. "It doesn't matter, grandma makes two kinds, and the price is different. It's [-] cents with fried dough sticks, and [-] cents without fried dough sticks."

"Mmm! Mmmm! I'll prepare, prepare, and try tomorrow." Grandma said that the wind is like rain, so she just did it. "Nannan, you need me to prepare the noodle sauce, side dishes, peppers and so on."

"Yeah! Got it." Fang Monan said happily.

Once the pancake fruit comes out, it is very popular!More than 50 sets were sold on the first day, and more than 40 sets of pancakes without fried dough sticks were sold.After gaining fame and stabilizing, it can sell more than 100 sets a day on average!Every morning, grandma stood at the door of her house and worked until nine or ten o'clock in the morning.However, the work of steaming steamed buns in the morning had to be handed over to the grandmother of the Liang family and the aunt of the family, but their salary was raised to 30 per month by grandma, and then another person was hired at 20 per month.

It is said that in June, the face of a child changes in thousands, like the most naughty child, laughing and sticking out his tongue to make all kinds of strange appearances, pouting and frowning to make people cute, and being irritable and furious at other times, the changes are so impressive. Can't keep up with the beat.As soon as I said that, this immediately changed.The sky was clear just now, but now, son Kung Fu, for a moment, dark clouds covered, "click" lightning flashed with white light, like waving a sharp sword; the thunder made a rumbling sound, I really wanted to beat drums in the air.The world suddenly changed from day to night.

Fang Monan and Mr. Lin had just sipped tea and played chess at the grape arbor. Watching the world change their faces, they hurriedly packed up their things and went into the house.Immediately afterwards, soybean-sized raindrops fell one after another. "Tick, tick..." The sound became louder and louder, "Wow...

The barren hills in the distance are already full of fruit trees and have grown lushly. At this time, in the rain and fog, people can enjoy watching flowers in the fog. The air is filled with the aroma of melons and fruits and the fresh air of soil.Instead of the vicissitudes of winter and the depression of autumn, it is replaced by the green that represents life.

June's baby face, no matter how hurried he comes and goes, how fast he changes, thinking about it, it is the one that makes me groan the most.Enjoying the coolness and comfort of early summer, one has to endure the changes in June. This kind of happiness and instant separation is the real and ordinary life.

After several months of continuous repairs, the farm is no longer what it was at the beginning.The original ten bungalows were directly added with one floor.The six rooms on the first floor were simply decorated by Fang Monan. In fact, they were just a heated kang, some furniture was added to the room, and more bookshelves were installed.The second floor is for those who stayed behind on the farm, mainly Fang Monan and the others came here to escape the summer heat. Grandma and mother stayed in the old house, and grandma couldn't let go of her business.

The terrain here is slightly higher, far away from crowds, and the temperature is naturally a few degrees lower than the county town.The most important thing is that I forgot how hot steamed buns are in summer.So Fang Monan, Mr. Lin, Auntie, and Mobei came to live on the farm.My aunt rides a bicycle to school. After leaving the farm, the terrain is flat and there are few people. Her fastest speed is only 10 minutes. After the weather is cold, she moves back.

In front of the house, two grapes moved out from the space, and they had already covered the shelf. The sunlight shone through the dense layers of branches and leaves, and the ground was covered with light spots the size of copper coins.The grapes are full of grapes, one is the size of a peanut, and it is green.A stone table and a stone bench are placed under the shelf, and a chess board is engraved on the stone table.There is also a rocking chair of the old man beside the stone table. The ground is paved with cobblestones, which can be walked on to activate the blood vessels.In front of and behind the house, some mosquito-repelling flowers and plants were planted. Fang Monan also made some mosquito coils for his father. With the mosquito coils, at least he will not be bitten by mosquitoes at night, so he can rest naturally.The mosquito-repellent incense dad came back and took a lot, and distributed it to the road workers.Since the road was built, my father has been at the construction site for food and lodging.Fang Monan and the others are enjoying their leisurely life now, so naturally they will not change it for a thousand dollars.

Mr. Lin suggested that my aunt decided to take the college entrance examination this year. She has good academic performance and is also older.Because she has to do a lot of exercises every day for the college entrance examination, and the teacher took the books she finished with a sea of ​​questions to do for the whole class. But the headmaster was very happy, and finally he felt elated, this is another story.

The days flew by, and it was July in a blink of an eye. God gave me face. During the two days of my aunt's exam, it was rainy and not too hot.Qi Qiushi even asked for leave to accompany the exam, but he didn't dare to stand outside the exam room because he was afraid of putting pressure on his aunt;Auntie breathed a sigh of relief after leaving the examination room, it was finally over.Seeing her coming back, grandma didn't dare to ask how she did in the exam, and looked at her cautiously, but Fang Monan could tell from her expression that she should have done well in the exam.

"Mom, you don't need to be so uneasy. I did well in the exam. It was very simple. I have done similar exercises." The aunt said in a relaxed tone. "It's the composition that makes me feel uneasy."

"Oh! Is there something wrong with the composition (because of the writing, the composition of the college entrance examination does not match the one in 83)?" Mr. Lin asked.

"The advantages and disadvantages of reform and opening up." Auntie's eyes were a little dark, but they recovered in the blink of an eye. Anyway, the exam is over, so it's useless to think so much. "I guess the impact they wrote is more positive, and what I wrote is There are many negatives. It’s really uncomfortable to be the opposite of others.” She was a little apprehensive, not knowing whether it was right to do so, so she desperately searched for the back to make up for the uncertainty of the composition.

At that time, they discussed that what my aunt herself said was positive, such as solving food and clothing, becoming rich, and connecting with international standards, etc., but Nan Nan, a little girl, approved it.It turns out that there are many negative effects.Even the side effects brought about by the reform and opening up are not actually brought about by the reform and opening up, but the side effects brought about by the history of China in the past 200 years in modern times.Most people think that all good things are learned from outside, and in the end, as long as they come from outside, they must be good.He also emphasized not to drop the price in front of foreign capital. They are businessmen and put their interests first, not philanthropists.The huge market of Huaxia makes them salivate, and they want to come here. At this stage, they are afraid of repeated policy, and when they observe enough, they will flock to it.We must sit firmly on the Diaoyutai, and do not sacrifice long-term development for some immediate interests, in short, a lot.My aunt nodded straightly, so it's better not to reform. [

But Nannan said: That's not good, everything has two sides, for example, if you open the door to circulate the air, flies will fly in; if it is completely closed, neither the flies nor the fresh air can come in.Here "cons" and "benefits" are directly proportional, and fresh air and flies are inseparable.According to the conventional way of thinking, it seems that only the pros and cons can be weighed.And the door has to be opened, so you have to learn the ability to fight flies and improve your own ability. "So that's how it is!" Fang Monan said, he said a lot and complained a lot at that time, but now he can't remember clearly. "Auntie, don't worry, no one will know the result until the end, just relax and wait!"

My aunt spent two weeks waiting anxiously, but it was Mr. Lin who knew her score in advance through his relationship.I actually passed the admission score of Peking University, and I still got full marks in English and Mathematics, but unfortunately, my aunt was a bit conservative when she applied for volunteering.So the first choice is a university in the province, and the second is Peking University.In any case, she had something to learn, and she was so excited that she didn't know what to do.The whole family was also happy around, only one person felt a bit lonely, that was my future uncle, because the farther my aunt went, the slimmer his chances were.

Although the notice has not yet been handed in, the continuous enthusiasm of the courtyard is no less than the heat of the sun outside.Dad rushed back immediately after hearing the news, and he was also very excited. The education resources in big cities are abundant, and it is much easier to get into college than in small county towns in this era.At this time, most counties and villages are still in the stage of literacy, and if there is a college student in the family, it is not a top university, but it is commendable.

College students in this period, including distribution, household registration also settled with the university. In the 80s, every college student could be assigned a good job after graduation. People in that era were hardworking and simple.Even at this time, high school graduates and junior high school graduates can find jobs and earn money to support their families.In those days, it was easy to find a job, and it was not difficult to earn money. Only with a little economic acumen could one achieve a great career and become a business elite.

Scarcity is the most precious thing, college students are still a scarce resource, they are hot and sweet, and work units are vying for them, unlike later generations, when college students are flooded, turtles are no longer popular.Unless you are from a top university in the world.

After hearing about it, all the neighbors who came here came to congratulate grandma. Unexpectedly, the uncle's family, who seldom visited the door, all came.

The eldest aunt has no other skills but forgetfulness, so when she came in, she just said congratulations.He stretched out his hand and patted his son and daughters, "Congratulations! Xiaoyan, you have been admitted to university. Learn more from your sister-in-law, so that your mother can also be admitted to university, so that your mother can also be beautiful." I hate them, but I don't want to speak coldly to them on my happy day, and nod to her, which is regarded as a greeting. Now is the moment when the spring breeze is proud, so I don't care about those old sesame seeds and rotten millet, and I don't want to affect my own. good mood.

"Tongxi, Tongxi, haven't you two also been promoted?" The aunt said in a neutral tone.

In the past few days, my uncle and his wife have mixed joys and sorrows. The joy is that both of them have been promoted to a higher level in the textile factory. It's even more unpleasant to hear my aunt's words. In fact, it's just their superfluous thoughts.This may be the speaker's intention, and it sounds intentional.

Forget it, compared to those old women in the logistics, Xiaoyan's words are more pleasant.Those people in the logistics spoke even worse behind her back, mocking her for having shallow eyelids, and now that she wants to please her mother-in-law, I'm afraid no one cares about it.Even if she went to please her mother-in-law now, they would all feel ashamed for her.If it wasn't for the factory leaders who valued her mother-in-law's family's power, it would be their turn to take over.Forget it, not much to say, it's worth it now, no matter what the reason is, it's because both of them have been promoted and their salaries are good, so I can only comfort myself like this.

"Hehe..." They smiled awkwardly. The uncle gave the aunt 100 yuan in front of everyone. After she saw it, she glanced at the sister-in-law next to him with a hint of sarcasm and said, "Have you asked the leader for instructions?" , I wouldn’t dare to take it without it.”

"Look! What Xiaoyan said is right. My sister-in-law has nothing to give you when you are admitted to university. The 100 yuan is just a little favor from us." The auntie smiled brightly like a flower, and her heart hurts!This is four months' salary, and it's gone.

"At the end of the day, our family is not short of money now. If we want to collect this money, we will honor our mother as a son. I don't dare to take it. Don't go around and say that I have no heart at the end." The aunt was very rude. , directly name her not to.

In the end, my uncle handed over the money to my grandma, which was considered a one-off, and it was much better than taking it back again.

They simply said some polite words, and they left. As soon as they walked out of the gate, the aunt's face darkened, "Go home and study hard, especially you kid, don't play around, if you can't study, you have to You look good!" She continued: "Going to college is the only way out of your predicament." She understands this point clearly, but the children need to work hard.However, with her high-pressure mother, she really forced the children to study in order to win a sigh of relief. Compared with the previous life, they were all admitted to college, but the world has changed since the big cousin graduated from college.

Seeing them disappear behind the screen wall, my aunt and grandma are very tired. The official notice has not been received yet, and they are all so chaotic. I don't know how hectic it will be.

"Otherwise, let's go out and have fun." Fang Monan said, let my aunt see the outside world and broaden her horizons. Don't think that everything will be fine if you are admitted to university, and there is still a long way to go.The most important thing is to take the future little uncle with me to solve their future development path.

At present, everyone at home thinks it is feasible, but when grandma comes here, she doesn't want to let go of the steamed bun shop in her hand. Now it is developing rapidly, making the business better, and she doesn't want to delay earning money because of playing.

In the end, my mother said that she would help to look after it. There were not many things in the bureau during the summer vacation, and she promised to take care of it. Then she took the still hesitant grandma on the train to the provincial capital.Picking up my little uncle, who was living in a drowsy state, jumped up happily when he heard their intentions. After asking for leave, he took the train south and went to Shanghai first.
