Rebirth: My 80s

Chapter 161 A poor family
A week later.

The courtyard house Li Jiankun bought for seven and a half dresses was completely emptied.

His beautiful knife, international students from the Eighth Campus, buy clothes at 8090 Department Store. According to the official exchange rate of 1.4962, he gives them about 1.5, which is 750 US dollars, or [-] RMB.

Unfortunately, these days there is little information and people are not very good at fussing about it. Not many people have tried this foreign currency exchange channel.

The international students in the Eighth Campus stayed in the ivory tower and had no idea.

You said this business was done...

Xiao Wang, who was quite unhappy at first, was very happy.

"Jiankun, you said 500 US dollars, how long can they use it if they get it from the United States?"

"Wouldn't even take a day."

"Isn't it?"

"The money earned there is US dollars, and the money spent is also US dollars. Think about it, if you go to a place thousands of miles away, do you have to arrange food and accommodation, and do you need to purchase daily necessities? Can you afford a month's salary?"

"what!"

Xiao Wangle couldn't do it.

The two of them were sitting under the eaves of the house in the north. They had just paid the final payment and swept the couple named He out. They had obtained the house deed and purchase contract, and the house had nothing to do with them anymore.

"So even if they arrive in the United States, their lives will not be easy?"

"That woman is envious of the wages and bourgeois life in the United States. She is too blind and too optimistic. After these few days of contact, do you think she has figured out how to make a living in the past? What do you think she can do?"

"The words are all about her age. As for now, an old woman in her forties should not be able to speak foreign languages. I don't think she can find a good job." Xiao Wang thought.

Li Jiankun nodded, "After all the savings are used up, it's nothing more than washing dishes and sweeping the streets. Dirty and tiring work that foreigners don't have to do. They think that going abroad is too beautiful. After all, her son is still here." In the ivory tower, the information fed back is too misleading, and if someone is not good enough, his parents can be tricked to death."

Xiao Wang clicked his tongue, "Is it so serious?"

"Let me tell you a story. I saw it not long ago."

Xiao Wang held his cheek and listened attentively.

Li Jiankun explained: "There was a 27-year-old Chinese youth who had an argument with a white father and son in a bar in Detroit, um, a city in the United States. The father and son beat him to death with a baseball bat. , what do you think the result is?"

Xiao Wang said without hesitation: "Kill someone to pay for your life!"

Li Jiankun shook his head, "No, they were convicted of misdemeanors and released in court."

Xiao Wang screamed strangely, with a look of disbelief on his face. He beat someone to death in full view of everyone. How could he be given a light sentence?Still released in court?

Faced with his doubts, Li Jiankun still gave the same answer, that is, a light sentence.

This is a real thing, but it happened in 1982. At that time, there was a lot of commotion in the beautiful country. The Asian community across the United States organized demonstrations for several years, called the "Goren Chen" case.

But eggs are useless.

The killers and his son still haven't spent a day in jail.

The father and son didn't even have a background, they were just laid-off workers at the Detroit Automobile Manufacturing Plant.

Li Jiankun sighed and said: "As the saying goes, a golden nest or a silver nest is not as good as your own doghouse. Some people always can't figure it out."

Xiao Wang was shocked and thought of the He family, but he couldn't feel any sympathy.

Should!
Then he laughed and said: "This will be our doghouse in the capital from now on."

Li Jiankun smiled, "It's a bit smelly. We need to find someone to clean it up. In addition, Shanhe, we also need to find someone to look after the house. We can't see anyone all day long. From now on, all the antiques will be kept here. Who can move them out?" have no idea."

Xiao Wang heard something interesting and asked: "What do you think?"

Li Jiankun pursed his lips outside the courtyard.

It was Xiaolong who pulled them here today. This boy was very observant and was always waiting at the entrance of the courtyard.

Li Jiankun believes that his parents are also responsible people.He has indeed been thinking about this for two days. Xiaolong's surname is Liang, yes, he has the same name as the second-hand rose.The three members of the Liang family lived in a large courtyard and rented a side room.

Xiao Wang was so excited that he shouted outside the hospital: "Xiao Long!"

"Hey, here we come."

After Li Jiankun exchanged glances with Xiao Wang, he did not state his intention directly. He looked at Xiaolong and said with a smile: "This hospital has been vacated, and we plan to find someone to take care of the sanitation. You are from this area, can you help find some people? "

"What are you looking for? My house is right in front. My parents are busy anyway, so I can just ask them to come over and do it."

Xiaolong has always wanted to find an opportunity to repay these two for their care, and he finally got the chance.

Li Jiankun said nothing more, nodded and said: "Then I'll trouble you."

"No trouble, no trouble."

That day, Xiaolong went home and talked about the matter with his parents. The Liang family didn't say anything about it. They were neighbors from now on, and they still took care of their son like this. They shouldn't shirk away from even the smallest things, either emotionally or rationally.

The next day, the Liang family entered the hospital and started busy.

I worked hard for three whole days, mopping the floor, cleaning the windows, using my own long hair, and tidying up the courtyard to an almost spotless condition, inside and outside, from top to bottom.

It takes more care than tidying up your own home.

Li Jiankun and Xiao Wang came to hang out and saw everything.

Today, the two came to the courtyard again. The Liang family was no longer there, so Li Jiankun called Xiaolong in.

"Xiaolong, go back and call your parents over."

Xiaolong hesitated and said, "Brother Kun, don't do this. We can't charge you for such a trivial matter."

Li Jiankun burst into laughter, "When did I say I wanted to pay?"

This made Xiaolong feel awkward.

"I have something to do with your parents, so hurry up."

Xiaolong then rushed back. The Liang family was only a few steps away. After a while, the family of three walked into the yard together.

Father Liang is a man with rough and dark skin. He is in his forties, and his face is already covered with ravines. At first glance, he looks quite strong, but mainly because of his big frame, he is a good worker.

Liang Ma's face was sallow, and she was in poor health due to illness. She rarely went out and was quite thin, as if she could be blown over by a gust of wind.

There was no mazaar in the courtyard, so Li Jiankun managed to invite them to sit down. He stood up and said, "Uncle Liang, Aunt Chen, you have worked hard these days."

Both of them had an honest and honest character, and they waved their hands repeatedly to express that it didn't matter.

"I came to see you two today because I have something to discuss with you.

"I must have told you that Xiaolong has also told you that we mainly put some old items bought from this hospital. My brother Xiao Wang has this hobby. A single item is not valuable, but it can't stand the large quantity, and this guy can buy it with all his heart. , there will definitely be more and more in the future.”

Xiao Wang curled his lips, blaming me, but he understood, so he just said it.

Li Jiankun said calmly: "Both of us are the kind of people who don't care much about family affairs. There is usually no one in the courtyard, so we are still a little worried.

"So I would like to invite your family to live in this courtyard. There are many rooms anyway. Uncle Liang will help look after the house, and Aunt Chen will help cook a meal and so on.

"I'll give you two a salary of 50 yuan per month. What do you think?"

Hey!
After hearing these words, all three members of the Liang family were stunned.

Xiaolong was the first to smooth it out. His whole body was shaking and his eyes were red with excitement. If he couldn't keep it straight, he would kneel down and kowtow twice.

Mother Liang was a little out of breath, and her heart couldn't bear it. She felt that the happiness came too suddenly, she covered her mouth tightly and shed tears.

She has been a dragster all her life, since she was a child. When has she ever earned a salary?
Not to mention fifty, she would do it for five dollars!
