Reborn in 1985: From Selling Braised Duck to Becoming the World's Richest Man

Seeing Liang Ming's confident demeanor, Liang Min and his wife exchanged a glance and nodded.

Early the next morning.

After Liang Ming got up, he glanced into his sister's room and found that Liang Jing had already gotten up, washed up, and was studying in her room.

The college entrance examination is just around the corner, and the middle school in the township has given its senior students a holiday early, allowing them to rest at home for two days.

While it's called a break, many senior high school students actually use these last two days to cram and review all the knowledge points that might be on the test.

Even though they know that this kind of review is not very effective.

After all, I've memorized all the knowledge points from three years of high school.

There's no point in cramming for the last two days.

"Son, your dad and I are going to work. Xiaojing is in your care now."

"Breakfast is ready and it's in the pot."

At this moment, Liang Min and Li Lan came out of the house, and Li Lan whispered to Liang Ming.

"Mom, I see."

Liang Ming nodded in agreement.

After Liang Min and her husband rode their bicycles out to work at the candy processing factory in the village, Liang Ming also arrived at his sister's door and knocked.

"Xiaojing, Mom has made breakfast. Come out and eat first."

Soon, Liang Jing's voice came from inside the room:

"Brother, you eat by yourself. I'll memorize some English words first, and then I'll eat."

“Little sister, people need food to survive. If you don’t eat enough, how can you memorize things? Your brain won’t get any nutrition, and it won’t remember anything,” Liang Ming said when he saw this.

The people in the room were silent for a while.

A few seconds later, the door to the room was opened.

When Liang Ming saw his younger sister Liang Jing walk out with messy hair, dark circles under her eyes, and pale lips, he was startled.

"Xiaojing, how many hours of sleep did you get last night?" Liang Ming asked anxiously.

"About three or four hours..." Liang Jing said uncertainly upon hearing this.

Her mind is a little hazy now.

Upon hearing this, Liang Ming did not hesitate at all. After pulling his sister out of the house, he immediately locked the door with the lock.

Upon seeing Liang Ming's actions, Liang Jing's face showed a hint of panic, and she said:

"Brother, what are you doing? Why did you lock my door?"

"If you do this, how am I supposed to go back and study after I finish breakfast?"

"That's exactly what I want—to prevent you from studying," Liang Ming said earnestly.

She only sleeps two or three hours a day. If her younger sister studies for two more days, she might collapse when she enters the college entrance examination hall.

"Brother, I'm about to take the college entrance exam. How can I not study?"

Hearing her brother's words, Liang Jing looked nervous and said anxiously.

"Xiaojing, you've reviewed the key points from your three years of high school many times. I believe you've mastered them."

"And your monthly exam results over this period have proven this point."

"What you should do now is to rest well, let your body recover to its peak condition, and take the college entrance examination with good luck."

Liang Ming looked at Liang Jing and said seriously.

Hearing her elder brother's words, Liang Jing hesitated for a moment.

She still wanted to study hard.

Seeing that her older brother was unwilling to open the door for her, she thought for a moment and could only feign surrender:

"Brother, even if you want me to rest, you have to let me go back to my room and rest in bed."

"Open the door for me."

Liang Ming knew exactly what his sister was thinking, and refused without hesitation: "No way. You go and eat breakfast. I'm not letting you into the house again today."

Upon hearing this, Liang Jing wanted to say something more.

Liang Ming interrupted, "Don't think I don't know what you're thinking. If I open the door for you, you'll definitely lock yourself in the room and continue reading."

Seeing that her older brother had seen through her thoughts, Liang Jing smiled helplessly and had no choice but to obediently eat her breakfast.

While the two siblings were having breakfast in the yard, they heard several footsteps outside.

Immediately afterwards, Liang Ming saw Jiwa, Gou Dan, and Ama walk in from outside the yard, carrying large and small bags of things.

"Chicken Kid, Dog Egg, Mom, what brings you here?"

After seeing the three of them, Liang Ming smiled and asked:

"Have you had breakfast yet? Sit down and have something to eat?"

Upon hearing this, the three children said in unison, "We've already eaten breakfast."

"Isn't the Dragon Boat Festival coming up soon? We made some zongzi at home, and we brought some for you and Liang Jing."

Upon hearing this, Liang Jing, who was eating breakfast, showed a curious expression and said:

"Give me a rice dumpling?"

Seeing Liang Jing's puzzled expression, Jiwa waved the tall rice dumpling in his hand and explained with a smile:

"Good luck, good luck! This is naturally a wish for you, little sister, to pass the college entrance examination and get into your ideal university."

Upon hearing this, Liang Jing smiled and accepted the zongzi, saying, "Brother Chicken, Brother Dog Egg, Brother Ama, thank you for your blessings."

"I will definitely get into university!"

“Little sister, once you get into university, our Liangjia Village will have produced its first college student,” Ama said.

"Yes, I heard that if you get into university, you're guaranteed a job after graduation. If you go to a good university, you can even get a job in a government agency."

Dog Egg also sighed.

"Who knows, maybe our village will produce a high-ranking official someday?"

Hearing what Chicken Baby, Dog Egg, and Ama said, Liang Jing blushed slightly.

When she gets into university, not only her parents and older brother, but even the villagers will be happy and proud of her.

"Alright, the college entrance exam is the day after tomorrow. Let's not talk about studying or the exam today."

Liang Ming interrupted their conversation and said to the group of kids, "Chicken Kids":

"It's perfect that you're all here. After breakfast, let's go out and have some fun. Xiaojing has been under a lot of pressure from her studies these past few days, so I need to help her relax."

Hearing Liang Ming's words, the three kids exchanged glances and said without hesitation:

"Great, it's been a long time since we've gotten together to hang out."

"The weather's nice today, how about we go to the beach?"

"Shall we buy some ingredients and build a kiln by the sea?"

Liang Ming also thought that the idea of ​​"chicken baby" was good.

The group immediately agreed and began preparations for going to the beach.

"Since we're going to the beach, we need to prepare some food. Chicken Boy, go to the village and buy some snacks!" Liang Ming said.

"No problem," the kid nodded in agreement.

"Dog Egg, you go with Chicken Boy and bring back a box of glass-bottled Coke," Liang Ming said, turning to Dog Egg.

“No problem, Brother Liang Ming.” Gou Dan nodded in agreement.

“Ama, come with me to the market and we’ll buy two slaughtered chickens, eggs, sweet potatoes, and seasoning for roasted chicken.”

Liang Ming turned to look at Ama again and said.

“Okay!” Ama nodded in agreement.

As he spoke, Liang Ming prepared to take out some money from his pocket and ask the kids to buy the materials.

Seeing this, the kids looked puzzled: "Brother Liang Ming, what are you doing?"

"I'm asking you to come with me and my sister to the beach, I can't let you spend money..." Liang Ming said.

Upon hearing this, the kids quickly said:

"Brother Liang Ming, if you say that, you don't consider us brothers anymore!"

"Exactly, how can we possibly charge you for this small amount of groceries?"

"If you consider us brothers, take the money back!"

Seeing the determination of the group, Liang Ming gave an awkward smile and took the money back.

"Alright, since you've put it that way, I won't stand on ceremony with you."

After agreeing on the plan, the group split up and went to the countryside to buy ingredients.

After buying snacks, drinks, and ingredients for the roasted chicken, the group headed straight to the beach.

Liangjia Village is right next to the seaside. As soon as Liang Ming went out, he encountered a group of children from the village.

As soon as they heard that Uncle Liang Ming and his group were going to roast chickens by the sea, they all begged to go.
