Starting out as a drug dealer in 1988
Chapter 17 Provocation
As the saying goes: A prosperous family stays in their hometown, while a poor family moves to another place.
Zhao Wenhao has now taken the first step, but he does not have a systematic plan for the future.
He only knew that his family was poor and that he needed to step forward as soon as possible to shoulder the burden of his family's livelihood.
Paying off all foreign debts is the most urgent matter at the moment. As for other matters, we need to wait until we have sufficient capital before we can consider them thoroughly.
Besides, Zhao Wenhao had only been in this world for a few days and was unfamiliar with everything. Therefore, he needed to get out and take a good look at what the outside world was like!
"Hey, give me a copy of the newspaper."
Perhaps because he was bored, the man next to him picked up a newspaper placed beside him and then greeted Zhao Wenhao.
Forget it, don't argue with him.
Zhao Wenhao just looked up and glanced at the man, then continued to look at the document in his hand.
Half an hour later, Zhao Wenhao finished reading the newspaper in his hand. When he wanted to pick up another one, he remembered that the newspaper was in the man's hand.
"Change?" Zhao Wenhao handed over the newspaper in his hand and said in a low voice.
The man was reading the newspaper just to kill time, so he didn't say anything about Zhao Wenhao's request, and the newspaper originally belonged to Zhao Wenhao.
"You look young, but you're actually reading this kind of economic newspaper!" The man took the newspaper handed over by Zhao Wenhao and became curious.
Zhao Wenhao didn't have a good impression of this person, so he casually replied: "I just bought it casually. I bought it and then took a look."
After saying that, he took the newspaper from the man's hand and continued to read.
"There's something wrong with your brain." The man muttered and ignored Zhao Wenhao.
Zhao Wenhao snorted softly. There are quite a few self-righteous people in this world.
We just met by chance, and you had a bad attitude from the beginning, speaking harshly and looking down on me, Zhao Wenhao. So why do you ask me to answer your questions?
"Dear passengers, the train to Yangzhou is about to arrive. Please check your tickets!"
At 6:20, the announcer's pleasant voice came from the radio.
Zhao Wenhao stood up, stretched, picked up the carrying pole, put the two sacks on it, and prepared to walk towards the ticket gate.
He bought a seat ticket, so there was no need to rush.
Coincidentally, upon hearing the announcement, the young man standing nearby also stood up and hurried towards the ticket gate. As for greeting Zhao Wenhao, that was out of the question.
Zhao Wenhao shook his head and didn't ask for the newspaper he had already read. However, he felt a certain contempt for this man's character.
A newspaper only costs a few cents, so it doesn't matter if you take it.
But the two had never met before. From the initial arrogant attitude, to taking the other person's newspaper without permission, and then leaving without even saying goodbye, he just left.
Where does such a person get his confidence from?
"Make way, make way ahead!"
The train station was packed with people, most of them carrying bags, large and small. Like Zhao Wenhao, many were carrying sacks on shoulder poles.
A few minutes later, Zhao Wenhao finally squeezed into the carriage and found his seat.
The sack was quite large, so he could only try to keep it close to him to avoid being crushed by people passing by. This was his first business, so whether he could make money was still uncertain. But if there was a problem with the goods, that was his only remaining capital.
"Hey, it's you! Did you buy a seat ticket?"
Just as Zhao Wenhao sat down to take a short rest, a voice came from the side. It was the young man in a white shirt whom he had just met.
"Can't I buy a seat ticket?" Zhao Wenhao looked at him coldly, not giving him a good look at all.
The man in the shirt was a little embarrassed. He stroked his sleek hair and forced a smile. "Hey young man, let me make a deal. Give me your seat and I'll give you five dollars. What do you think?"
Five yuan was a few cents more expensive than the ticket price, which meant that the man in the shirt paid for the ticket for Zhao Wenhao.
If it were an ordinary person, he might have agreed. Unfortunately, the person he met was Zhao Wenhao, who he already disliked. How could he give up his seat for five yuan?
It takes more than eight hours to travel from Xuanzhou to Yangzhou, which means we will not arrive in Yangzhou until tomorrow morning.
Zhao Wenhao didn't want to suffer by standing like this all night.
"I don't think it's very good!" Zhao Wenhao directly rejected the request of the man in the shirt and ignored him.
Upon hearing this, the man in the shirt's face suddenly changed color: "You country bumpkin, you don't even look down on five dollars, you deserve to be poor all your life!"
This was the first time Zhao Wenhao encountered such a bizarre person, and he immediately retorted, "You city dweller, no wonder you can't even buy a seat. It turns out you have such a bad character. You deserve to stand all night."
"You!" The man in the shirt raised his arms and wanted to attack.
Zhao Wenhao would not tolerate him. He stood up with a whoosh and looked at him sharply, "If you dare, try it!"
The man in the shirt's face flushed red. Fighting was not his strong point. If he really fought with this peasant, who knows what would happen.
Just when he was in a dilemma, a middle-aged man sitting in the middle seat opposite Zhao Wenhao came to smooth things over. "My friend, I'll give you my seat. How about you give me five dollars?"
Of course the man in the shirt would love it. Money makes the world go round, and there are still people willing to earn those five dollars.
He provocatively took out his wallet from his briefcase, pulled out five dollars, and deliberately passed his hand with the money past Zhao Wenhao's eyes before handing it to the middle-aged man. He seemed to be mocking Zhao Wenhao for not even being able to earn these five dollars.
Zhao Wenhao was too lazy to pay attention to this self-righteous guy and just turned his head to look out the window.
The middle-aged man took the five dollars from the man in the shirt, happily gave up his seat, and stood by the aisle without going anywhere else.
Zhao Wenhao felt a little strange. Judging from the middle-aged man's clothes, he didn't look like someone who was short of five dollars. Why would he be willing to give up his seat and stand alone all night?
However, this is none of his business, as long as he is not provoked.
"Some people are born to be poor. A peasant like him insists on running to a big city. Do you really think you can become rich by going to a big city? You're dreaming!"
The man in the shirt who had just sat down didn't seem to have any intention of letting Zhao Wenhao go, and was still talking foul language.
Zhao Wenhao treated his words as if they were bullshit and didn't bother to argue with him anymore. This kind of person only had a few words to gain an advantage. If he really said it right, Zhao Wenhao would definitely beat the shit out of him.
