When Luo Meiyun returned home that evening, she greeted her with a smile: "Fu Sanjun is a reliable person. How could you not trust him to do the work?"

"That's really good. They've got a thousand tricycles. I want to learn from Beijing and make sure everyone has work, keeping the whole city busy. They've also got individual business licenses up and running, so we can buy groceries right at our doorsteps in the future."

Zhou Zhonghai regained his former domineering aura.

"Really? That's too fast."

"Soon? By the end of this year, I want to see Huailin, as vibrant as Beijing. Ordinary people can earn money as long as they are willing to put in the effort."

Qiaoqiao, who was helping Hu Xiaomei cook in the kitchen, heard this and had an idea. She then went to the living room.

"Dad, can I...can I go through the back door?" Qiaoqiao stammered.

"What, are you going to drive a tricycle?"

"No, it wasn't me, it was my classmate Xiaoqi. Could you get her third brother a tricycle and a business license?" Qiaoqiao stammered.

"Is that the classmate from a family with seven children, so poor that they had to scavenge vegetables to get into university?"

"Yes, Xiaoqi's eldest and second eldest brothers have five children, making a total of thirteen people. They can't even get enough to eat with cornbread. After I taught her how to sell kimchi, her family's situation improved a little. If we can give her a tricycle and a business license, her third brother can use it to haul goods, and the kimchi business won't be lost."

"It's really not easy. Since Qiaoqiao has asked, Dad is determined to pull strings. The tricycle and the individual business license are originally intended for unemployed young people with urban household registration. Let's get one for him. But the tricycle costs 160 yuan each, so we can't skimp on the price."

"Of course, of course, he can pay me back when he earns money. Thank you, Dad."

Qiaoqiao was overjoyed. With the tricycle, Xiaoqi's family's quality of life would be elevated to a whole new level.

"What are you thanking me for? Dad doesn't embezzle or accept bribes, but the back doors will still be opened where they should. How well they do it is up to them. Yao Xing did a good job. After taking over the disinfection plant, he looked for work everywhere. I heard that they took over the disinfection work at the city's kindergartens."

Zhou Zhonghai likes to help people, and he hopes that those he has helped will become successful.

For example, Yang Zheng, Zhao Jintao, and Yao Xing are all promising students.

"Yao Xing is really hardworking and resilient. He's lost weight since taking over the disinfection plant."

"Young people need to be diligent in their studies. By the end of the year, the government departments and major public facilities will be responsible for disinfection work."

"Really? Dad, you're so kind."

"No need to praise him. If we don't hand it over to Yao Xing, we'll have to hand it over to other disinfection plants. As long as he does a good job, that's fine."

"I want to tell Yao Xing this good news. He's extremely anxious, afraid he won't be able to pay back the money he owes."

"A disinfection factory just does traditional business, so it shouldn't be unable to earn 30,000 yuan."

"Yes, then I'm relieved."

"What are you worried about?"

"Dad, you forgot, of the 30,000 yuan you raised, 10,000 yuan was from us. If he can't make it, then I won't get my money back," Qiaoqiao explained.

"Haha, are you anxious too?"

"A little bit, hehe, that's the hard-earned money Wenhui made from giving speeches all over the place."

"You, your little brain thinks even more than Zhou Xiaowei's. Hey, where's Xiaowei?" Zhou Zhonghai looked everywhere for Xiaowei.

"He and his dad are watching Little Yellow in the backyard. They said Little Yellow had puppies and they want to give you one so you won't be sad anymore," Luo Meiyun replied.

"Yes, Xiaowei is a very honest kid. He's a good kid and more insightful than me."

"What insightful things can a child under two years old say?"

"Haha, I can't tell you, but he's right anyway."

Xiaoqi's family was in an uproar. Xiaoqi's mother fried all five eggs that were used for changing kerosene, and served them with chives in a big bowl.

"Third brother, tomorrow take the letter of introduction to the Municipal Employment Office. The tricycle will cost 160 yuan. Our family doesn't have that much money. Write an IOU first, and we'll pay you back when we've collected the money."

"Now that we have a tricycle, you won't have to borrow the team's cart anymore. And don't lose the individual business license, it's more important than your university diploma. With it, we can set up a stall at the entrance of the residential area and sell kimchi. I'll go sell it with you on Sunday," Xiaoqi said happily.

"Okay, I'll definitely handle it properly." Xiao Liu carefully put the letter of introduction into his pocket.

"Oh right, we need to get a certificate from the brigade. Yang Qiao said that only unemployed youths with urban household registration can apply for tricycles and business licenses, which has been a great help to us."

"Your classmate is a real benefactor to our family. It's a pity we don't have anything decent to offer, otherwise we would have thanked him properly."

Looking at her impoverished home, Xiaoqi's mother really didn't know how to thank Yang Qiao.

"Mother, we can't thank you enough. We will remember this kindness in our hearts."

Even if you gave all your possessions to Yang Qiao, she might not care.

This family is so poor that all that's left is its people.

With a business license, a person can earn money, which is also a form of wealth.

"Xiao Qi, the farm work is almost finished, and my sister-in-law and I will have some time. Why don't we go with Xiao Liu to sell kimchi? If we have more stalls, we can sell more, right?"

"Sister-in-law, running a stall is hard work too."

"What's so hard about it? My sister-in-law is capable of enduring hardship."

"Okay, once we get the business license, Third Brother, remember to ask if we can set up stalls in several different locations."

"Okay, Manager Zhang said he'd recommend two more cafeterias to us. Xiao Qi, should we buy a few more jars?"

"Forget it, let's wait until the wasteland at home is cleared out. The vegetables we've gathered won't be enough to supply the market."

"Little Seven, the radishes have already been planted in one plot of land," the eldest brother said hurriedly.

"One plot of land isn't enough for two jars, let's talk about it later."

The Gao family got busy because one business license could only be displayed in one place. Xiao Liu took his sister-in-law to the designated entrance of the residential area, and then went to the vegetable base with his second sister-in-law to pick vegetables. In the evening, the whole family went home together.

On the first day, the older sister-in-law sold more than half a jar of pickled vegetables. On her way home, she couldn't hide her joy and said, "I sold them for two cents a bowl, and filled them to the brim. I made more than seven dollars for more than half a jar. So, a jar should sell for at least ten dollars."

"No, sister-in-law, we usually only sell a jar for three yuan."

"Think about it, a bowlful doesn't hold as much as a bottle, right? And it's only two cents a bowl. It's so easy to make money off city people."

Xiao Liu was riding his bike, with his two sisters-in-law pushing it from behind. There were only three of them on the country road. The eldest sister-in-law kept her voice down, as if afraid that others would hear her.

"So, we're going to be rich!" Second Sister-in-law was also very excited.

"Once the commercial market is built, we'll rent a storefront and earn even more," Xiao Liu said loudly.

"You silly boy, why are you speaking so loudly? Don't let outsiders hear you."

"There are no outsiders here, just the three of us."

"You can't be loud about it, don't you understand the saying 'don't flaunt your wealth'?" Second Sister-in-law complained.

"Seven yuan a day, plus the delivery to the canteen, that's about three hundred yuan a month, sister-in-law. Our family works all year round, and at the end of the year, we don't even have three hundred yuan left."

"That's right, our family is lucky, we met a benefactor."

The older sister-in-law's face wrinkled from smiling. She made seven yuan and eighty cents, and secretly hid fifty cents in her pants.

Nobody's stupid. With such a large family, they should always keep a few cents so they can buy their mother a pound of peach shortbread when they visit her parents' home later.
