Siheyuan: The farm in my mind is in your hands.
Chapter 204: 1 Investment Return in a Few Years
"The old man wanted to give me fifteen, but I asked for eighteen. Anyway, the money was all gone!"
After Bang Geng finished speaking, before anyone else could react, Jia Zhang sat down on the ground.
"Eighteen dollars! It's almost enough for our family's food expenses for a month. How come you spent it all?"
"Bang Geng, do you want to piss me off to death?! I only work for a little over twenty bucks a month!"
"You little bastard, your dad may not even make eighteen bucks by waiting for a month on a tricycle!"
The old Jia family members were about to collapse. It was only natural for the father to pay off his son's debts, but his family had just borrowed more than a hundred yuan to buy a tricycle. Where would they get the money to buy another wheel?
"It's the father's fault if he doesn't educate his child well. Dongxu, I think you have to settle this Banggeng issue.
Otherwise, if someone really wants to report the case, who of you should go to jail?"
Yan Bugui was the most educated person in the compound, and he also spoke up at this time, but he didn't expect that it was Banggeng who did the evil thing in the end.
Now Jia Dongxu should have enough motivation to pedal his tricycle!
"This... Uncle, you also know that I..."
Jia Dongxu was about to cry. He was heavily in debt now, so how could he have any extra money to pay for Banggeng’s mistake?
Qin Huairu didn't say anything. She worked very hard at the steel mill and only earned 27.5 yuan a month. After deducting the 4 yuan monthly food allowance, she was left with 23.5 yuan.
But this money is to feed a family of five...
Jia Zhang glanced at Yi Zhonghai and moved her lips, but she finally kept her words to herself. Yi Zhonghai had just said to make a big deal out of a small matter, but now he didn't say a word.
The old Jia family doesn't want to pay compensation, but the residents of the compound have something to say about it.
It's the same thing as stealing, so why should other children have to return the things and get beaten, but you, Jia Geng, don't have to take any responsibility?
There is no such thing in the world. If a prince breaks the law, he should be punished the same as the common people. What's more, Bang Geng is at most the 'prince' of the Jia family, and he has nothing to do with others.
"Uncle No. 1 and Uncle No. 2, please help me speak up. Where can I get the money to compensate Old Cai? I still have to pay interest every day!"
Dongxu now deeply regretted bringing Banggeng back. He thought that Banggeng was not a son at all, but a troublemaker!
But if he is left alone, and the child really grows up crooked, he will not be able to explain to the ancestors of the Jia family. More importantly, the crooked stick will most likely not be able to support him in his old age.
Dongxu was really sad!
"Dongxu, don't worry. Since it was really Banggeng's fault, just educate him well. He will still be a good kid when he grows up.
It’s better than him poking a hole in the sky and losing the entire Jia family to pay for it!”
Chen Jianghe couldn't stand seeing grown men crying, it was simply outrageous.
"Brother, I don't have that much money! Even if I don't eat pork noodles anymore, I can only save 30 cents a day. It will take me more than three months to save enough!"
Dongxu is an honest man. He confessed the fact that he was eating alone without waiting for others to question him.
Now Jia Zhang's face looked as ugly as if she had eaten a dead child. When her guess came true, she was the most pitiful one in the family.
"Oh my God! Lao Jia, did you hear that?..."
"Shut up! Jia Zhang, if you want to cry for a while, go back to your bed and cry.
Don't waste everyone's time. I have some important things to do right now and I don't have time to cooperate with you in the performance."
Chen Jianghe is still waiting to share the spoils with Lao Cai. Who would like to see Jia Zhang crying without any results?
"Oh, okay." When Jia Zhang found that no one sympathized with her, she stopped crying immediately.
The bad boy was right, leave the pain to the night, she couldn't be in a hurry.
"The only thing left now is how to get the wheels back. There are two options:
The first is that Dongxu directly compensates Lao Cai. Of course, the amount should be twenty or thirty. You two can discuss it.
The second is that Dongxu bought a new wheel for Lao Cai, which cost about 30 yuan. We car owners know the market price. "
Once the plan is given, all that remains is the debate between the pros and cons.
"I can also buy an old wheel to compensate Lao Cai! His wheel wasn't new in the first place."
Jia Dongxu finally found some comfort. Now that things had come to this, every dollar he could save counts. One dollar could buy three large bowls of meat noodles!
"I don't mind, as long as I can get my tricycle running again, I'll take anything.
Also, Jia Dongxu, the one I had was well maintained and is at least 80% new. You definitely can’t buy it for 20 yuan.
Your son was cheated, you can't ask me for the difference!"
Lao Cai was determined in his mind that the price could not be lower than twenty yuan, otherwise he would really lose money.
"The old man who repairs cars lives in a compound two blocks away. Who can run over there quickly?"
Chen Jianghe had found out where everyone else lived early in the morning because he didn't want to handle the case overnight because it was too troublesome.
It is also to prevent the night from being too long and too many dreams...
"I'll go there myself, brother, but I really have no money now, what should I do?"
Jia Dongxu volunteered to take care of his own affairs, and he would be a man again tomorrow!
"If you don't have money, ask your mother for it. Your mother must have saved a lot of money for her retirement over the years."
When Chen Jianghe said this, Jia Zhang became anxious. Why did he keep trying to get her back?
"Don't be like this, Chen Jianghe. I'm the worst off in the family. Why do you ask me for money?"
"You are Dongxu's biological mother. Someone else will have to take care of you in your old age. Who else can I find if not you?"
When Yi Zhonghai heard this, he thought it was a good deal as he could bribe Dongxu to provide for his retirement in the future with just thirty yuan.
But he can't be the first to speak about this matter, as it would seem like he is eager to give money to others.
Just as Yi Zhonghai was happily waiting for Dongxu to speak, Chen Jianghe spoke:
"Ms. Jia Zhang, you have always wanted to save some money for your retirement, and now is the perfect opportunity, you should take this opportunity to express your feelings.
You help my brother Dongxu pay this money, and then he and his wife will give you a few dollars a month for retirement, isn't that good?"
Chen Jianghe had no objection to letting Old Yi pay the money, but if that happened, Jia Zhang would not be kind to him.
The chain reaction would be that his supply of cloth shoes would probably be switched to Yi Zhonghai to benefit, which would be unacceptable, so Old Yi cannot be allowed to get involved in this matter.
"Ah? It seems like what you said makes sense."
Jia Zhang was tempted. An investment would yield returns of several decades, so it was a sure win!
“So how much do they give me every month?”
"Brothers should settle accounts clearly. Dongxu, Qin Huairu, you two should work out how much to give each month."
Qin Huairu, who had been standing on the periphery, didn't want to talk much when she heard that there was something going on with her and that she had to pay for it.
But she didn't want to use her own private money to help Banggeng fill the hole, so she had to go ahead with it.
"I have no experience in this, so let's hear what Dongxu has to say."
"I have even less experience, brother, how about you decide?"
This couple really has no experience in providing pension money to others.
If you say too much, they won't be willing to give it. If you say too little, I definitely won't be willing to give it. It's better to kick this hot ball away.
Isn’t this the role of a middleman? It gives both sides room to maneuver.
