    "Don't you have another egg? Just buy it after you finish eating."

    Ji Wei's answer was light, but Aunt Zhou's heart jumped fiercely, and she bit her teeth and said: "What you said is light, you have to go to the street to ask for money when you run out of money, which of those neighbors see you don't I hate it so much."

    "Auntie didn't say it just now. Someone must want this cake to be sold on the street. Since I have a serious business to do, of course I won't do those disgusting things again." Ji Wei said seriously after stretching.

    According to his calculations, this cake filling is simple to make and the cost is not high. In the street market, a steamed bun costs one cent, and a cake with eggs is sold for three cents. An egg costs one to two cents, and his price is a lot cheaper.

    However, selling cakes is only an expedient measure. There is no technical content in cakes, and it will take a long time to sell them on the street. There must be countless followers. When he earns the first start-up capital, he can also let go of his hands and feet and do some good things that are not seen in this era.

    At that time, why worry about no money?

    Ji Wei's little abacus clapped, but Aunt Zhou and Liu Yimian looked at each other.

    She said she didn't think it would work. How do you know that Ji Wei has really changed a person, and plans to change his ways and become a new person.

    "Husband, is what you said true?" Even if she was as timid as Liu Yimian, she couldn't help but take a step forward and ask again.

    "As soon as a man says a word, it's hard to chase after a horse! What are you doing to deceive you?"

    Ji Wei rubbed his eyebrows with a headache, "It's just..."

    Aunt Zhou asked loudly, "Just what?"

    It's just that he doesn't charge protection fees. Where does this money come from?

    Human beings are alive, and they cannot be killed by problems. At night, Ji Wei found a solution.

    When the original owner, the old lady, passed away, a jade bracelet was removed from her hand. The water head is good, because it is worn on the body all the year round, it is smooth and round. She said that it was a family heirloom of Ji's family and that it would be passed on to her daughter-in-law. But when she was going, she would first entrust it to the original owner, then put it under the box, and then take it out after her wife was taken.

    The original owner was never forced to run out of mountains and rivers, and it was a big deal to go to the street to ask for money if he had no money in his pocket, but he forgot the bracelet and never had any crooked thoughts.

    Ji Wei rummaged through the box to find it, and couldn't help apologizing in his heart. Wrapping the bracelet in silk cloth, the next morning, went straight to the only pawnshop in town. However, with the intention of redemption, live it up. The price was much lower, only 2 taels of silver were taken, and after a year, the bracelets were returned to the pawnshop without 3 taels of silver to redeem.

    When Ji Wei came back from the town, the first thing he did was turn to Carpenter Li's house in the alley, and planned to ask him to make a cart so that he could do business on the street.

    However, when he appeared at Carpenter Li's house early in the morning, Carpenter Li, who was sawing wood with one foot on Xiao Wuzi, pulled his face down and scolded, "What are you doing here again!"

    It can't be blamed on Carpenter Li, who told him to live at the entrance of the alley, and he would pass by every time the original owner came home. The words that came out of the original owner's mouth were unpleasant, and they often came into the house to take advantage.

    Li Carpenter is a man who does physical work. He is thick and stout, so he didn't need to be afraid of him. But once there was a conflict with the original owner, the original owner couldn't take it well, so he ran to find a few brothers to come over and threaten Li Mujiang. His daughter-in-law and daughter were frightened to death. From then on, Li Mujiang did not dare to fight against the original owner, but his face was always ugly and he was reluctant.

    "Uncle Li, I want to ask you for help with something."

    Carpenter Li said bluntly, "Who is your uncle, I don't dare to be!"

    Ji Wei also knew that the original owner's previous impression was very bad, and he didn't want to change his mind all at once, but he didn't want to delay the sale. After all, he could sell a jade bracelet once, but he didn't have a second jade bracelet to sell to himself.

    The matter of stalling must be put on the agenda, the sooner the better.

    "I want to ask you to help me make a cart, the kind that the street vendors push." ​​Ji Wei gestured, for fear that Carpenter Li wouldn't understand, "There must be a place down there to accommodate the stove, and there must be hot things on it. Wheels, you have to push them with your hands, Uncle Li, can you understand what I mean?"

    Li Carpenter's price is fair, he is easy to talk to, and his business is not bad on weekdays. People in the neighborhood came to him with everything, and he also made several carts from vendors on the street.

    Hearing Ji Wei's words, he immediately understood, but he was still a little puzzled.

    "What do you want this for?" Carpenter Li thought for a moment, and couldn't help but mocked, "Could it be that you still want to learn from others to do business?"

    "Uncle, you are so smart." Ji Wei smiled.

    He didn't hear what Li Mujiang said, but it was convenient to do more entanglement here. It was useless to entangle, and he didn't understand it.

    Li Mujiang buried his head and continued to do the work at hand, and after a long while he said in a sullen voice: "If you really want to do business well, then I will do it for you for nothing. I am afraid that you will go to the street and use a different method to scare others to ask for money. Ji family boy, feel your conscience, are you worthy of your underground parents?"

    Hearing the movement outside, Li Carpenter's wife and daughter hid behind the door and probed here. But Ji Weiyi looked at them, and was so frightened that he retreated into the room and didn't dare to look at him. If the original owner hadn't threatened them at the beginning, how could it be like this.

    Ji Wei was embarrassed by this stare, counted twenty copper plates from his belt, and put his head on the small table full of tools, "Uncle Li, these twenty pennies are the deposit, wait for you to do it. Well, I'll pay the rest. One hundred cents, do you see enough?"

    Although there are not many copper plates, this is the first time in history.

    Li Mujiang couldn't help but glanced at it a little more, and he felt a little strange, "Are you serious?"

    Ji Wei looked at him sincerely, "Uncle Li, I want to live a good life."

    After waiting for a long time, Li Mujiang did not speak.

    Just when Ji Wei thought that the other party would not agree to him and was planning to find another way out, Li Mujiang finally spoke.

    "I will do the cart, and you can take the money back, but you are not allowed to come to my house in the future. You are not welcome here." Li Mujiang didn't look up after he finished speaking. Various looks.

    Carpenter Li doesn't care whether Ji Wei really wants to reform himself or not, and really wants to live a good life. He just hopes that Ji Wei won't disturb his life again. For this purpose, it's okay to make him a cart for nothing.
