"Niu Bi, I didn't expect your situation to be so difficult." Bai Jie said softly.
Niu Bi smiled: "Actually, I am much better off than Sister Bai at the beginning. At least I still have my parents, but at that time you could only rely on yourself, especially since you were a woman. I really don't know how many men were ashamed."
Bai Jie smiled slightly: "No! In fact, sister is also lucky."
"Luck is also part of ability!" Niu Bi sighed: "Even if you have luck, you can't succeed without ability. To be successful, ability and luck are indispensable."
Speaking of this, Niu Bi laughed: "Sister Bai, I am young, but I have experienced a lot of things. You must have suffered a lot to succeed. Many people stare at the success of others, but they don't know how much the successful people have paid for it. I won't envy you, because I also have grand ideals, and I will work hard for my ideals, but I admire you, because you work hard enough and succeed."
Bai Jie was a little surprised that Niu Bi could say such a thing at such a young age, but then she thought, isn't this justified!
"Okay! Then I'll offer you a cup of tea instead of wine. I hope my little brother can realize his dream and become a great man." Bai Jie smiled and picked up the teacup.
Niu Bi laughed and clinked glasses with Bai Jie: "Thank you for your kind words, Sister Bai. If I succeed in the future, I will never forget your encouragement today."
"You'll be dead if you forget." Bai Jie knocked on Niu Bi's head: "I'll smash your glass when the time comes."
Niu Bi chuckled: "Okay! But I won't give you this chance."
"That's more like it, cheers."
Although the two are 15 years apart in age, they seem to have no obstacles in chatting. Even their outlook on life and values are surprisingly similar, and they seem to have met too late.
"Little Niu brother..." At this point, Bai Jie changed her way of addressing Niu Bi and added some tea to Niu Bi: "Although there is a big age gap between us, I feel that I can talk to you very well. I have had very few friends to talk to in recent years. You should come to my place more often when you have time, otherwise I will be very unhappy."
Niu Bi smiled: "Okay! Since Sister Bai thinks highly of me, how can I not give Sister Bai face? I will definitely come often in the future."
"Then it's settled." Bai Jie smiled slightly and picked up the teacup: "Little Niu brother, sister will offer you another cup."
"Sister Bai is polite."
After drinking this cup of tea, it was almost eight o'clock, and Bai Jie also asked the last question: "Little Niu brother, since you killed the giant python, in addition to the snake meat and snake gall, there should be a snake skin Come on! Can you show it to me? If the snake skin is good, I will buy it at a high price. "
"Snake skin! Yes, I have it, but I didn't bring it here." Niu Bi saw Bai Jie's disappointment and smiled, "Do you have time this afternoon? I'll bring the snake skin to you to see."
"Yes!" Bai Jie smiled and said, "Then it's settled. Bring the snake skin to me this afternoon. If the snake skin is well preserved, I'll give you a high price."
"It's a deal." Niu Bi smiled. In fact, he could take out the snake skin right now, but after all, he hadn't received the money yet. Although he had a pleasant chat with Bai Jie, it was pleasant but money was money. He hadn't received 380,000 yet, so it was better to put the snake skin on hold. At the same time, Niu Bi also had to check the price of python skin online so that he would have an idea and not suffer a loss.
Seventeen-year-old Niu Bi has been working hard in society for two years. Naturally, he has the tact and caution that ordinary teenagers do not have. He can be impulsive, but not brainless. Occasionally, he suffers a little loss for greater benefits. This is Niu Bi's way of survival.
Just after eight o'clock, Niu Bi sat in Bai Jie's Porsche sports car, feeling the comfort of a luxury sports car, and secretly made up his mind: I will also drive a top sports car in the future.
At the Bank of China, Niu Bi showed his ID card and applied for a bank card. After seeing Niu Bi's ID card, Bai Jie realized that Niu Bi was not yet sixteen years old. How similar was she at the beginning. At the beginning, she was also less than sixteen years old, and she was alone in society. She suffered countless hardships and had a huge family business now.

"Is this fate?" Bai Jie felt closer to Niu Bi.
After getting the bank card, Bai Jie transferred 380,000 yuan to Niu Bi's account. When Niu Bi saw the actual amount of 380,000 yuan on his card, he was very excited. This was 380,000 yuan. If he was working as a loader, even if he didn't eat or drink, he would have to work for three or four years to earn so much money. But from the time he got the ring to now, it has only been a few days, and he has earned 380,000 yuan. And this is just the beginning. He will definitely be able to make more money in the future. When the time comes...
After saying goodbye to Bai Jie, Niu Bi hung the basket on the back seat of the car and rode his bicycle away from the snake restaurant. On the way, he found a place where no one was and put out the four dissected sheep from the inventory.
Today is Sunday. When I got home, Niu Xin and Ma Min were both there. When I saw Niu Bi coming back with a basket of mutton, Niu Xin immediately helped Niu Bi put the basket down and asked, "Why did you come back at this time? Have you eaten?"
"Yes." Niu Bi wiped his sweat and said, "Dad, Mom, if you don't go to work today, help me at the meat stall. Business was good yesterday, so I got four sheep today."
"Okay."
Niu Xin and Ma Min didn't see it yesterday, but as soon as the meat stall was set up today, more than a dozen housewives rushed over. The hot scene scared them silly.
How...it's so hot?
"Xiao Niu, it's still 35 today, right? You can't raise the price! Otherwise, I'll never let you go!" A middle-aged aunt said fiercely.
"Haha, don't worry, auntie! It's still 35 today, fair to everyone, but I won't give anything away. I've kept some sheep's feet and sheep's brains for drinking! If you want, you can buy them with money, I'll give you a discount."
"Okay, 35 is fine, give me five pounds." The mutton here at Niu Bi is really too cheap, and the people who bought meat yesterday went home to cook and found that the mutton sold by Niu Bi was very delicious, much more tender than the mutton in other places, which also brought more repeat customers to Niu Bi, so in less than one morning, the four whole sheep were sold out, even the sheep's feet, sheep's brains, sheep's bones and so on were bought.
The family of three returned home and calculated today's income. Today, the four sheep sold a total of more than 6,000, and Niu Bi said that the four sheep cost a total of 4,500 yuan, that is, in one morning, Niu Bi earned more than 1,500 yuan.
After hearing about today's income, Niu Xin and Ma Min were so excited that they trembled all over. More than 1,500 yuan was their income for half a month, but Niu Bi earned it in less than one morning.
Surprised, excited, and crying with joy.
Ma Min wiped her tears and said, "Okay, okay, our Bibi has made money, and our family can finally live a good life in the future."
Niu Xin also had tears in his eyes, took a deep breath, patted Niu Bi's shoulder, and said nothing.
Seeing his parents so happy and excited, Niu Bi smiled and said, "Dad, Mom, don't worry! Good days are not far away from us."
"Yeah, not far away..." Ma Min wiped her tears and laughed, "Bibi, if the business is so good every day in the future, Mom will not go to work and stay at home to help you sell meat."
"That's good!" Niu Bi said, "Mom, you will go to the factory tomorrow and buy out your seniority directly. In the future, you will help me sell meat at home. Dad, you too, our whole family will work together. Our meat is good and cheap, and there will definitely be many repeat customers. In the future, we can make tens of thousands of dollars a month by selling meat, which is much better than working."
Niu Xin thought about it and shook his head, "It's only been two days since I started selling meat. A good moment does not mean a good life. Let's wait and see!"
A failed life made Niu Xin develop a cautious character, and he did not have the so-called ambition. He was stable and would not rush forward for the sake of temporary benefits. With such a character, he was destined to not do big things, but he would not suffer big losses either. He was very mediocre.
"Then you go to work and let my mother help me. By the way, I want to buy a small truck. It takes too much time to ride a bicycle to transport meat every day, and I don't transport much. If I have a small truck, I can transport more meat every day, and I can earn more." Niu Bi said his plan while the iron was hot.
"This..." Niu Xin and Ma Min were a little hesitant. Although cars are getting cheaper and cheaper now, an ordinary small truck can be bought for 70,000 or 80,000 yuan, but the family's savings are only 100,000 yuan. If they are used to buy a small truck, there will be little savings left. For ordinary poor people like them, they don't want to take this risk.
Parents' hesitation was expected. Niu Bi said lightly: "Dad, Mom, I have something else to tell you."
Niu Xin and Ma Min looked up and looked at Niu Bi.
Niu Bi knocked on the table: "I want to move out."
"What?" Niu Xin and Ma Min were shocked. Ma Min immediately asked: "Bibi, what did you say? You want to move out? Why?"
Although Niu Xin didn't ask, there was also a question on his face.
"I can't stand the environment in the slums, you all know this. I have my own ideals, I want to make a living on my own, so I want to rent a house in the city, and then I will set up a meat stall in the city. If you and my dad want to move out and live with me, then we can work together outside. If you don't want to move out, then I will provide you with goods every day, and you and my dad will sell meat here. The two meat stalls should make more money." Niu Bi said.
After listening to Niu Bi's explanation, Niu Xin and Ma Min were speechless. Obviously, Niu Xin and Ma Min did not want to leave the slums for the time being. Although the environment here is a bit worse, after all, they have lived here for decades and have feelings for it.
Ma Min said worriedly: "But Bibi, you are alone outside, and no one is taking care of you..."
"It seems that you don't want to go out with me." Niu Bi smiled: "Mom, don't worry, I plan to take Aunt Wu and Yuyan with me this time. With them taking care of me, you should be able to rest assured!"
"Your Aunt Wu and Yuyan are going too?" Niu Xin and Ma Min were a little surprised, but not surprised. Niu Xin frowned: "Have you discussed it?"
"I talked to Yuyan last night and she agreed. Originally, I wanted to rent a three-bedroom, two-living-room apartment for our two families to live together. If you don't want to go, you can only let Yuyan and Aunt Wu go with me." Niu Bi said.
