Since he was sick and stayed at home, Zhao Zhengzhi found that life at home was getting harder and harder.

Three children are going to school.

After planting a mu of three parts of the land at home, I paid the public grains, and the remaining three melons and two dates could not last for two months.

Every time I push the mill, I grind it again and again. The mill almost burst into flames, and I almost had to stop the mill from being driven out before I was willing to finish it, but I still couldn't add much dark flour.

Every time I go to the market to sell bran, the person who buys bran shook his head when he saw it, saying that it was his bran, and there was no trace of flour inside. It was so clean that even pigs couldn't eat it.

No food, no drink, no money.

All the children have to go to school.

Zhao Zhengzhi felt that he was going to be forced to death.

The most difficult time is the beginning of school twice a year. The three children line up in a row by size and look at him eagerly. Even though he wrapped his head with a quilt, his three pairs of eyes were still swaying in front of him.

Next to him was his wife sighing helplessly.

He always endured it and endured it again and again, but finally he had no choice but to get up, count the money left by pitiful Baba, and then went to the houses of the neighbors to ask, and to make up enough money for the children to go to school.

But when the children took the money, he fell into helplessness again.

This is the truth of life.

Many people are often manifested by incompetence, and the same is true for pain.

If you lack abilities and realize this, you will suffer.

If you lack ability and don’t realize this, you are angry.

Zhao Zhengzhi has both aspects.

Sometimes he feels that he is not capable enough, so that his family and children cannot live a good life.

Sometimes he is angry at this society. Why does a person like him who is dedicated and diligent in life have a hard time?

However, the good thing about Zhao Zhengzhi is that he is never willing to give up.

I kept complaining and felt so angry, but I still tried my best to make my life better.

Doing business is one of his important ways.

Zhao Zhengzhi's first business was selling watermelons.

Originally, the peach trees at home had some peaches and couldn't finish them.

He picked some and went to the market to sell it, selling some money to subsidize his family income.

As a result, when selling peaches, there was a watermelon seller next to him. After observation, he found that the fineness and moistness of the watermelon seller was pretty good.

If it is better, he can earn several hundred yuan a day, but he can earn several hundred yuan a year of farming.

He calculated that if he earned a few hundred yuan a day, how much money would he earn in a year? The children would have the money to study, eat, and repair houses at home.

So, after discussing with his wife, he took out a little bit of money from the box, borrowed another 200 yuan from someone else, and finally raised 500 yuan.

There was no electric tricycle at home, so he used a flatbed cart instead.

Anyway, as long as people are hardworking, the cart can still be used.

However, the more full the ideal, the more skinny the reality is.

He wholesales three thousand kilograms of watermelon from a melon vendor who wholesales watermelon in a next-door county. When the dealer left, he started selling it with great enthusiasm and found that at least half of the melons were raw melon seeds.

Kill one raw melon, kill another raw melon.

In the end, he had no confidence in killing himself. Looking at the cart of melons, he seemed to see a flood of beasts.

This experience of selling watermelons cost him two or three hundred yuan. It made his already poor life worse and his life was even more difficult.

Moreover, through this business, I understand one thing. For the business industry, if you don’t understand, don’t join in the fun. People will never make money from the industry they are not familiar with.

He doesn't know how to choose watermelons, so he doesn't want to sell watermelons.

Otherwise, you will suffer a loss.

With the experience of failing to sell melons for the first time, Comrade Lao Zhao no longer sells fruits.

In addition to being afraid of raw melons and egg seeds, they are also prone to being rubbed with fruits.

Doing small businesses in rural areas is different from those in cities.

Most of the people in the city are very polite and reserved.

But there are many people in the village, you say they are simple, but sometimes they are so simple that they don’t understand the worldly ways, which makes people feel a little uncomfortable.

For example, take advantage of small gains.

Not like people in the city, there are not many acquaintances.

If you stand in the market in the countryside, you can at least know more than half of the people.

If you sell fruits, especially some small fruits, many people will come and take one to eat, and sometimes they have to take a few with their children.

Even if someone doesn't take it, if you happen to have a good relationship with them, then taking the initiative to give it a few will naturally be a normal relationship.

Not to mention, there are relatives.

That rural man doesn’t have one or two hundred relatives.

As a result, after selling this day, the majority of the gifts account for.

It doesn’t matter if the fruit is grown or picked by yourself, but if it is obtained from wholesale, it will be a waste of costs.

Zhao Zhengzhi is a face-loving person.

As long as he is an acquaintance, he says he will let others try it.

As a result, after all the trouble, he sold a piece of fruit, but basically didn't make much money. He was just happy that the children at home had all kinds of rotten fruits that they could not finish every day.

After learning from the pain, Zhao Zhengzhi had a new idea.

Selling vegetables.

Since the fruits are too much loss, isn’t it enough to sell vegetables?

Others can’t go to the stall to get some chili today and cucumber tomorrow.

So every day before dawn, he went to the vegetable wholesale market more than ten miles away to wholesale vegetables. Before dawn, he returned to the town and occupied a good position.

At first, I only sold some common vegetables such as chili and eggplant. Later, I saw that the business was pretty good. I suddenly increased my confidence. I directly wholesale half a truck of onions, which were thousands of kilograms.

It turned out that the onion was so spicy that it was not a variety that people in Qingcheng liked to have cold dishes. The cold dishes were so spicy that they couldn't eat them.

It's completely impossible to sell.

So the old Zhao family had to sell it slowly and consume it slowly.

The children found that they ate onions for almost every meal.

Cold sauce is also onion, and noodles are also onion, so I almost vomited the onion.

After the vegetable selling business lasted for a while, Zhao Zhengzhi's legs hurt so much that he couldn't drag the cart to the market, but finally he had no choice but to stop.

After all, it’s not a lot to make a little money.

He was quite satisfied and felt that at least it was much better than staying at home and doing nothing.

After stopping selling vegetables, Zhao Zhengzhi began to fall in love with the egg-selling business again.

This is also a coincidence.

Zhao Zhengzhi has a few hens at home and lays eggs almost every day. If he eats the eggs at the market, he can exchange them for oil, salt, sauce and vinegar that you can use for a week.

It is the main source of family income.

One time, Zhao Zhengzhi took the eggs to the market for sale, but was quickly taken away by a vendor.

Because of other things, he did not leave the egg market quickly. He accidentally discovered that the egg dealer took away his egg for 30 cents and sold it to the teacher in the town for 50 cents.

It seems to be said, what kind of local egg is this.

Zhao Zhengzhi always felt that it was bad to say that people were not good, and it meant to curse people.

But he found that the teacher in the middle school was very happy to hear that it was a native egg, and he said that he wanted it was a native egg.

This surprised Zhao Zhengzhi.

He was surprised, but he regretted it a little.

If he sells 30 eggs directly to that teacher, wouldn’t it be possible to sell them for an extra 6 yuan?

You can eat six bowls of glutinous noodles for 6 yuan.

It was really a big loss to be made by the dealer.

Zhao Zhengzhi observed in the market for a long time and had the idea of ​​selling eggs again.

He is a very action-packed person, and he does whatever he wants.

When I got home that day, I put out two big baskets at home, and added a beam in the middle to put them on the back seat of the bicycle. Then I rode my bike to the county to collect local eggs the next day.

At the beginning, his skills were very unfamiliar and he often collected some eggs that were about to expire. Some rural old ladies saved the eggs for too long and even put them out of order.
