Chapter 5： Prepare

After Chen Xing finished saying this, Gu Lang, who was sitting opposite him, raised his head slowly and looked at him, and even Qiu Jiu next to him stopped cleaning up, revealing that Staring at him suspiciously.

Facing the questioning glances from the two, Chen Xing felt the pressure, he licked his dry lips, and said the plan he had planned on the way back, "I want to do A small business, but I don't have the capital right now."

Chen Xing felt embarrassed when he finished speaking, but as long as he thought that because he was not thick-skinned, he couldn't borrow or make money, let alone repay Gu Lang's money, he could only be hard With a scalp, he continued: "I promise, as soon as I make money, I will pay you back immediately."

Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing quietly, and when his face became more and more red, he slowly said, "How much money do you need?"

Chen Xing, who was ready to be rejected, raised his head when he heard Gu Lang answer him like this, his eyes were staring at Gu Lang, and excitedly said: "Half money. "

After finishing speaking, Chen Xing thought of what Qiu Jiu said to him this morning, the excited look on his face disappeared a lot, showing a little hesitation, and a little embarrassed: "If not so It doesn't matter how much, I can think of a way."

Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing, his eyes dimmed for a while, and he didn't know why he felt a little uncomfortable. He didn't wait for Chen Xing to continue, and said directly: "Okay."

Chen Xing was still thinking about what he was going to buy, a trolley, two wooden barrels, seasonings for cooking, and ingredients, thinking about how to get it to minimize the cost. Hearing Gu Lang's agreement suddenly, he looked up at Gu Lang with a look of disbelief in his eyes.

Gu Lang thought he didn't hear clearly, nodded lightly on the table, and repeated, "I can lend you this money." After a pause, he deliberately added, " But you have to pay it back as soon as possible, I am very poor!"

Chen Xing's eyes lit up again, watching Gu Lang nod desperately, "Well, I will pay it back as soon as possible, I will pay you back as soon as I make money, I promise!"

Seeing the smile that reappeared on Chen Xing's face, Gu Lang felt that the smiling Chen Xing was much more pleasing to the eye than the frustrated Chen Xing.

Chen Xing was excited for a while that he had borrowed the start-up capital for himself, and then saw Qiu Jiu who was cleaning the tableware and went out, thinking of what he was good at, and immediately said to Gu Lang: "If you think it's ok If so, let me cook the food in this family in the future!"

Hearing that Chen Xing himself made this request, Gu Lang became more and more satisfied, he nodded towards Chen Xing, and agreed with his proposal.

Gu Lang asked Chen Xing to sit here and wait for him, and he went back to get the money.

Seeing Gu Lang's back slowly leaving, Chen Xing felt that Gu Lang was really a good person! Not only did he take in himself, but he also lent himself money when he was in difficulty. After he made money, he would definitely improve Gu Lang's life.

Just as Chen Xingchang was thinking of a bright future, Gu Lang had come back with a worn-out purse.

When Gu Lang handed the money bag to Chen Xing, he always felt that Chen Xing looked at him strangely, but he didn't think much about it, he just thought he was too happy.

Chen Xing took the purse and thanked Gu Lang carefully. He didn't take a rest and went out with the purse.

Chen Xing first went to the place where the carpenters gathered, ready to buy large items such as trolleys and wooden barrels, and then took the rest of the money to buy the dishes to be made tomorrow.

Who knows that as soon as he passed, Chen Xing found that he still underestimated the price of handmade products here. If he wants to buy a new trolley and two wooden barrels, then he has no extra money went to buy groceries. But what would he do if he didn't have the raw materials to eat? Could he have to borrow it from Gu Lang again?

Just as Chen Xing was standing there in a dilemma, he suddenly saw the entrance of an old carpenter's shop on the corner, and there was a dilapidated wheelbarrow in the corner. It looks like it was abandoned there.

Chen Xing's eyes lit up, and he immediately walked over there. After confirming that the car was still usable except that it was shabby, he was polite to the old carpenter who was working in the door. asked, "Old man, is the old unicycle at the door for sale?"

Hearing Chen Xing's question, the old man who was working on the parts raised his head and looked at him. When he saw that the man who spoke out was a handsome brother, his serious expression also changed. Relax a bit.

The old carpenter put down the things in his hand and walked out. When he saw what Chen Xing was referring to, he frowned slightly and said hesitantly, "If you want to buy this car, I will Naturally, it's for sale. It's just that the car is old and may not be so convenient to use."

Chen Xing was a little hesitant to hear him say this, but he soon made up his mind and looked at the old carpenter and said embarrassedly: "The main reason is that I have no extra money, so I can only buy an old one. It still works, I want it."

The old man didn't say anything more after hearing his words, he removed the sundries, took out the wheelbarrow below, pushed it in front of Chen Xing, and said to him: "This thing It was originally eliminated, if you want it, I will give you fifty cents."

Chen Xing asked just now, if it is a brand new unicycle that costs 300 cents, now this one is a bit old but still usable, as long as 50 cents is what he earned. He nodded and agreed immediately.

The old carpenter looked at the happy Chen Xing, was silent for a moment, and asked him to wait after receiving his money.

Chen Xing was a little unclear, so he watched the old carpenter first enter the house and take out a bunch of tools, and then he beat the old wheelbarrow for a long time, and helped him repair some shabby places .

After finishing all this, the old carpenter gave the wheelbarrow to Chen Xing and said to him: "Okay, you can push it away now."

Chen Xing pushed it and felt that the wheelbarrow was better and stronger than before. Knowing that the old carpenter was kind to help him, he sincerely thanked him, "Thank you!"

The old carpenter looked at Chen Xing, who was smiling brightly, and waved his hand gently, indicating that he didn't need to thank him.

Having his own wheelbarrow, Chen Xing bought two more wooden barrels that just fit on both sides of the wheelbarrow, and used the extra money to buy an extra wooden barrel the size of which can be placed on the barrel The basin, and then happily pushed the cart away from here to the direction of the vegetable market.

On the way to the vegetable market, Chen Xing also bought the seasonings he needed in the grocery store. But soon he cheered up again, as long as the things he made were sold, it would be a matter of time before he would return.

Chen Xing went to the vegetable market and went straight to the tofu stall he was optimistic about. Since he wanted to buy a large quantity, he needed fresh ones, so he negotiated the price with the stall owner as soon as he went there, and Asked if it could be delivered to your door.

After learning the quantity Chen Xing wanted and negotiating the price, the stall owner readily agreed to Chen Xing's request for delivery. It's just that when Chen Xing mentioned his address, the face of the tofu stall owner started to look weird.

Chen Xing was keenly aware of the boss's mistake, looked at him a little strangely and asked, "What's wrong, is there any problem?"

The stall owner looked at Chen Xing's puzzled expression and asked with some fear: "How does your brother live in that kind of place?"

Chen Xing only thought that what he asked was strange, how could he not live in that kind of place, so he also asked directly.

The stall owner looked at him with a complicated expression, and asked in a strange tone: "Do you know who lived there before?"

Chen Xing looked at the performance of the stall owner, his doubts deepened, and asked uncertainly: "Isn't it Gu family?"

The stall owner patted his thigh excitedly when he heard his answer, "Yes, it's the Gu family! Since you know that the Gu family lived there before, how dare you live there Are you here from out of town?"

Chen Xing hesitated for a while, not sure if he was from other places, but nodded.

Seeing that he nodded, the stall owner became more and more excited, "Then you must have been fooled by the person who rented it to you. Back then, dozens of people in the Gu family died overnight. Listen to me. It is said that blood is everywhere, everyone thinks that place is unlucky, and they always walk around there."

Hearing what he said, Chen Xing's face showed an unbelievable expression. Looking at the excited stall owner, he also understood why he was reluctant to go there, but understanding came from understanding, he himself I can't come here to buy again, it's too time-consuming.

So, Chen Xing looked at the excited stall owner and discussed with him: "Boss, don't worry, I live in it and it's fine right now, and it's not a terrible place. If you Afraid, put this tofu outside the gate and I will move it in by myself."

Seeing Chen Xing's unmoved expression, the stall owner hesitated for a while, and finally nodded and agreed to his proposal.

In the yard, after putting those seasonings in the kitchen and putting them away, they started to boil water to prepare to scald and wash the newly bought utensils.

This busy work has been busy for a long time. After he has boiled the hot water, he sees Qiu Jiu, who came here at some unknown time, sneaking into the yard. At this time, he is surrounded by his new purchase looking at something, with a strange look on his face.

Chen Xing looked at him curiously and asked with a smile, "What are you looking at?"

Qiu Jiu raised her eyes and looked at him with a little curiosity in her eyes. She pointed to the pile of strange things and asked, "What are you going to buy these things for?"

Chen Xing looked at his curious eyes, curled the corners of his lips, and said cheerfully: "Wait tomorrow, tomorrow you can see my new food, I promise you will like it too. ."
