Li He rode the motorcycle to Skinny Monkey's house with the young man to get the bike back.
Skinny Monkey's parents were quite friendly and insisted on keeping the bike for dinner. Li He thanked them and declined.
There was no harm without comparison. After riding the motorcycle, he realized how boring it was to ride a bike. Although he didn't feel anything for the motorcycle at first, he didn't feel like riding a bike anymore after riding it.
Li He glanced at the lame young man. "Is there a problem with the bike?"
The young man's name was Lu Bo. He wasn't exactly a young man, he was almost 30 years old. However, Li He looked at everyone as young because of his age.
At the age of thirty, he was a bachelor with a slight limp. He didn't have a job, so he couldn't find a wife. Fortunately, he was quite practical. Skinny Monkey wanted to help him out for the sake of his cousin. This year, he managed to set up a stall on Xiushui Street.
"My left leg … I can't exert any strength." Lu Bo was a little troubled.
"Sorry … I didn't notice," Li He said hurriedly. He placed the bike on the back seat of the motorcycle. "Can you sit on it and hold it? I might need some strength."
"That's not a problem. I have strong hands. Not many people are my match in arm wrestling," Lu Bo said excitedly.
Some of the alleys were narrow and he had to stop halfway. He had to slow down when he met people, so he slowly made his way home.
When he passed by Old Man Zhang's house, Old Man Zhang was standing at the doorstep in a daze. When he saw Li He nod at him, he looked at Li He and said, "You even managed to get in with your kick?"
Li He said, "I lent it to my friend for fun. You're getting married soon, why aren't you happy? This time, it's the cabbage. "
It was said that when a daughter got married, the parents would feel sad as if the cabbage they painstakingly planted was taken away by a pig. Old Man Zhang felt that way. He looked at his son-in-law with displeasure every day.
However, when it was his son's turn to get a girlfriend, he was coaxed by his mother-in-law every day. He was so happy that he didn't even go home. This made Old Man Zhang even angrier.
Old Man Zhang looked up at the sky at a 45 ° angle and said, "I don't know if the cabbage is there or not, but the pig that I've been raising for more than 20 years is definitely gone."
Li He laughed. He sped up and went straight home.
The threshold was quite high, and it took a lot of effort for him and Lu Bo to lift it up. Li He thought about using a wooden plank as a cushion to push it up.
However, he didn't have to worry about it. In the evening, He Fang had already found a wooden plank to pad the slope.
When Li He woke up from his nap, He Fang was riding the motorcycle around the yard, and the two dogs were following behind.
Li He jumped in fright. "You'll suffer a loss if you fall. How dare you ride recklessly?"
He Fang was obviously not happy to hear that. He deliberately accelerated the accelerator and rushed forward. He slammed on the front brake and made a beautiful 90-degree tail swing.
After finishing this series of actions, she even deliberately raised her head at Li He with a proud expression.
Li He hurriedly followed, "You're trying to scare me to death."
"What is this? I can even drive a tractor, how can I not be able to deal with this thing? "
"That's different. It has four wheels, so it's stable. No matter what, you won't overturn it. These two wheels, if you don't pay attention, you'll fall." Li He obviously didn't agree with He Fang's words.
"Then I didn't see you fall," He Fang said and entered the house without looking back. There was a big difference between a man and a woman when they were angry. A man was like setting off firecrackers, it would explode at the slightest touch, and once it exploded, it would disappear into thin air. When a woman was angry, it was like a point card. Every time, she would act as if nothing had happened, but she would accumulate resentment. Once she had enough points, it might turn into a nuclear bomb.
Li He was muddle-headed. Was there a need to be so angry?
On the day He Fang reported in, Li He still rode the motorcycle to send He Fang to the school gate.
"I'm not going in, you can go in by yourself."
"Okay, if you can't take it, go to a restaurant and have a sumptuous meal. I've also told Fu Xia to come back often," He Fang instructed in detail.
"I'm not an idiot, I know. I'll be back in a few days, there's a cafeteria to eat."
Although it wasn't the start of school yet, many students from other places had arrived.
They pointed at Li He's motorcycle out of curiosity. It wasn't a "seduction artifact".
These were arrogant geniuses who had one foot in the elite clubs of China.
So what if you were rich, people would at most treat you as a nouveau riche.
No matter how much you doubted your education, you had to admit that education was a shortcut to the top of the pyramid.
For example, a good education could at least determine the gaze of a mother-in-law.
Another example was that a famous scientist's research certificate from Jinkela University in America was worth more than a research certificate from a remote university in China.
After He Fang left, Li He had nothing to do for the next few days. He continued on the path of eating and waiting for death.
Old Man Lee was nowhere to be seen. In the beginning, he just ate and drank at Shoushan, but now he would sleep there when he drank too much.
Only Li He was left to guard the empty house.
On the night of the big yellow dog's delivery, Old Man Lee came back on time and added a mattress in the kennel.
People who didn't know better would think that he was a veterinarian.
When he woke up in the morning, the first thing Li He did was to look at the kennel. He carefully opened it and counted, there were actually six puppies.
There were black, yellow, and brown puppies, and they were all very happy to see Li He.
When Li Aijun came over, Li He said, "Aren't you busy in the shop?"
"It's alright, I'm just here to discuss something with you. I'm not sure."
"Say it, don't be shy, I don't feel comfortable looking at you." Li He poured another cup of tea for Li Aijun.
"I want to run a collective business with the street."
"Is that your idea, or is someone looking for you?"
"It's my own idea. There's a tailor shop next door, and now it's a collective business. I bought the equipment and expanded it into a clothing factory. Even the state-run shops are buying from there, and the business is very good." Li Aijun couldn't hide his envy.
Li He didn't object to this kind of business model. He even considered this kind of business model in the past, but he was a lazy person, and he didn't like to argue with others. Even if the scale was small, and it was frightening, he still wanted to control the whole situation.
He didn't support Li Aijun's idea. Although as a local resident, he had many advantages compared to an outsider like him, once he hung the sign of a collective business, it wasn't that easy to remove it. "You're the hen that laid the golden eggs, how can you give it to someone else? Although you're doing it as an individual now, there are a lot of business restrictions. But sooner or later, the country will open up a variety of business models and encourage them. My suggestion is for you to do it steadily for a year, and then we'll talk about it. "
Li Aijun said, "I've really thought about it for a few nights. Although I'm giving the collective a share, I'll be earning more if the scale is bigger. Also, I've seen the shoe-making equipment. Once I start working, I can produce at least a hundred and fifty pairs of shoes a day. How much would I earn then? "
There were some things that Li He couldn't say. It would be meaningless if he said it out loud. "The collective business is decided by the collective, but it doesn't necessarily depend on you, Li Aijun."
Li Aijun was stunned. He didn't think about this.
