Chapter 297 The Only Way Wei Guang did not directly answer Wei Xiaojian's question, but asked in return: "Do you still want to continue selling medicine to make money in the future?" "Of course I do!" Wei Xiaojian said seriously. His family was not good. His father was no longer around and his mother couldn't stand the poor life so she remarried early. There is only an elderly and frail grandmother and a younger sister who is about to go to junior high school at home. The burden of life fell on him, a fifteen-year-old boy. Collecting herbs is his only way to earn income! He doesn't want to lose his only income! "If you want to make money by selling medicine, don't ask so many questions. Just do what Uncle Guang says!" Wei Guang's expression looked very serious. Wei Xiaojian immediately knew that what Uncle Guang said was very important, so he nodded heavily: "Okay!"
"Go!" “Good class.” "Uncle Guang, I have to go. I'm going to buy some food to take home." "Okay, go ahead." After saying goodbye to Uncle Guang, Wei Xiaojian came to the shop at the entrance of the village. In addition to a shop, there was also a pork stall, both of which were run by the shop owner. There were two idle guys sitting in front of the store. When they saw Wei Xiaojian coming, they teased him, "Isn't this the kid from Weijia Village who has no parents? Are you here to buy something? Do you have money, haha." "The boss here doesn't have any leftovers to give you, haha!" Wei Xiaojian ignored the two of them. There is nothing to eat at his house. The shop owner is a middle-aged man. After hearing what the two idlers said, although he was staring at his phone, his eyes were always on Wei Xiaojian, fearing that he would steal something. However, Wei Xiaojian seemed unaware of this look, as his mind was now completely focused on the things he wanted to buy. He quickly picked out some necessary items, such as salt, oil, noodles, and some spareribs. My grandmother has been ill for a long time, and her health has deteriorated recently due to malnutrition. Now that he has a little money, he wants to buy some pork ribs soup for his grandmother to nourish her. He picked up a bottle of oil, a bag of salt, a small box of noodles, and two pieces of pork ribs. Take your stuff and check out. The boss was a middle-aged man. He looked strange when he saw Wei Xiaojian carrying so many things. How does this kid have the money to buy so many things? After counting the bill, he said expressionlessly, "Forty-five dollars in total." Hearing this, Wei Xiaojian was stunned. Forty-five dollars?
How could something that didn't look like much be so expensive? He only had thirty-five dollars, and now it was ten dollars more than he paid! "Boss, please calculate again. Is it correct?" The boss sneered: "I have been doing business since I was a teenager. It has been almost 30 years. Do you think I would make a mistake?" "The salt is two yuan, the oil is 12 yuan, the noodles are also 12 yuan a box, and the spare ribs are 19 yuan. I'll charge you 6 yuan, which is already after the discount." Upon hearing this, Wei Xiaojian looked embarrassed and perplexed. "What? Not enough money?" the boss said with disgust, "How much money do you have? If it's not enough, put the oil or noodles back." The idle man sitting there also laughed. "Kid, if you don't have money, don't take other people's things." "Look at your dirty hands. How can you sell the things you have taken to other bosses?" "If that doesn't work, kowtow twice, maybe the boss will let you buy on credit?" "Hahaha." However, the boss said coldly: "I don't sell on credit here, even if you kowtow to me!" Hearing this, the two idlers laughed even louder. The boy's face flushed. But the shop owner was still urging: "Do you have money? If not, put the things back!" Wei Xiaojian had thirty-five yuan in banknotes in his hand and was in a dilemma when he suddenly heard the roar of an engine coming from a distant intersection. The shop owner, the two idlers, and Wei Xiaojian couldn't help but look over there. I saw a huge off-road vehicle roaring over and stopped on the road in front of the store. Then a tall and well-dressed man got out of the car. The man glanced up and down the path, then walked towards the store. To the farmers in the mountains, this man's appearance and temperament were similar to the protagonist in a TV series! For a moment, several people forgot what was going on. Until the man came to the shop. "Got a cigarette, boss?" "Ah, yes, yes, yes." "Give me two boxes of Huazi." "Okay, okay." After realizing what was happening, the transaction was completed. Then, the boss remembered Wei Xiaojian in front of him. "Are you going to buy it or not? If you want to buy it, hurry up. If not, put it back." "I, I'll buy it, but I'm still short of ten dollars," Wei Xiaojian said timidly.
"Then if you put that side back, won't that be enough?" The boss calculated quickly. "But there is no one to eat at home. I want to get something to eat for grandma." "You can't do it without money!" said the shop owner. The man has already taken a few steps. After hearing the conversation between the two, he walked back and looked at Wei Xiaojian. Wei Xiaojian had never met people from big cities outside the countryside. When he was looked at by the handsome man in front of him, he was a little timid for a moment and didn't know what to say. The man turned around and asked the boss: "How much are these things in his hand?" "Oh, boss, that's 45 bucks in total." "Okay, I'll give it to you." After saying that, the man scanned his phone and the payment was successful quickly. "It's over." "Okay, okay." The shop owner was a little confused. But after giving the money, the man turned and left without even saying a word. Wei Xiaojian was also a little confused. He didn't expect that a stranger would be willing to pay 45 yuan for a stranger! 45 yuan is more than what he earns in a whole day! The man actually gave it to him directly without even saying a word to him. He reacted. I should have said thank you to him, but the man had already started the car and drove away. Until the vehicle disappeared from their sight. The shop owner then said to Wei Xiaojian: "Boy, you are really lucky today. Someone is willing to pay for you." At this time, the two idle men sitting at the door of the store also looked at Wei Xiaojian with envy. "You're so lucky, kid." “You don’t even have to pay.” "If I had known that the boss was so generous, I should have talked to him just now. Maybe I could have asked him to buy me two packs of Huazi cigarettes?" "You are just wishful thinking!" "But that boss is really rich. He actually smokes Chinese cigarettes! How extravagant!" "His car looks really big and impressive, it must be expensive, right?" "of course?"
Wei Xiaojian stared blankly at the direction the car left. At this moment, his heart was filled with gratitude towards the man. Although the two of them were in contact for less than half a minute, the man had left a deep impression on him, and he vowed to repay him if he had the chance. Only after the car disappeared from his sight did he slowly turn around and walk towards his home. This place is actually several hundred meters away from Weijia Village. Wei Xiaojian walked for about ten minutes and finally returned to the village. As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the village, he found that the huge off-road vehicle was parked at the entrance of Weijia Village! Is that big brother coming to Weijia Village?
