The chief player of the film and television world

Chapter 162 Ah Zheng opened a shop

"Ah Zheng, your friends are here! Welcome!" Mother Zhong was folding clothes by the bed.

"Hello auntie!"

Ah Zheng pouted towards the sofa next to the dining table, motioned for the two of them, "Sit down, you can put your things on the bed, it's fine."

"Brother Zheng, you don't have a TV here. Does your son listen to the radio every day?" Lu Jiayao looked around, and the only entertainment device left was a radio.

Ah Zheng put down his son, forced a smile: "There used to be a TV."

As if he had said something wrong again, Lu Jiayao looked at Zhang Jin as if asking for help.

Zhang Jin quickly changed the subject and said, "Brother Zheng, what's your son's name?"

Ah Zheng patted his son's little head: "His name is Zhong Jiaquan, and he is the best of all."

"Brother Zheng, you didn't say it was a commendation, but I thought it was a family home." Lu Jiayao said.

It’s true that which pot can’t be opened and which pot can be lifted. As soon as I patched the east wall for you, you demolished the west wall for me. This teammate Zhang Jin was convinced. He said to Lu Jiayao: “Why don’t you wash the fruit?”

"Okay, Brother Zheng, I'll let you taste the fruits we sell." After Lu Jiayao finished speaking, he opened the fruit basket and took a few apples to the bathroom.

Zhang Jin opened the box of snacks he brought, took a few and shook them in his hand: "Xiao Jiaquan, come, uncle will give you something delicious."

Zhong Jiaquan happily took several packets of snacks, first gave them to grandma, then to father, and finally opened a packet by himself and ate with relish.

"Your son is really sensible."

"My mother taught me well, and I, as a father, didn't do much." Ah Zheng said, "Sit down, and I'll make dinner for you."

"Here, here comes a big, fragrant and sweet apple. Whoever sees it has a share. Brother Zheng, you take one too." Lu Jiayao handed it to Ah Zheng, and then put all the remaining apples on the dining table.

Ah Zheng took a bite of the apple, looked at the friends and son in the room with a smile, his eyes suddenly became moist.

It was an ordinary meal for Zhang Jin and Lu Jiayao, but it was a hearty dinner for Ah Zheng's family. After washing the dishes and cleaning up, the three of them went to the rooftop to have a chat.

Smoking is not allowed at home. There are a lot of things in the corridors, and clothes are drying, and it seems too narrow. Only the roof is open and not boring.

Ah Zheng lit a cigarette for himself, took a sip and played with one hand. The cigarette twirled back and forth on his fingers. He turned to look at Lu Jiayao: "Ah Yao, congratulations on your successful interview and your return to society."

"Thank you Brother Zheng. In fact, this time is mainly due to luck. The interviewer of that company was the supervisor of my previous company. He admired me very much, which is why it went so smoothly." Lu Jiayao said.

"That's also very good, it proves that you are capable." Ah Zheng said and looked at Zhang Jin again, "Ah Jin, what about you, what position has the police assigned to you?"

"I'm still resting for the time being. After the undercover investigation is over, I have to go through a series of reviews and evaluations before I can return to my post," Zhang Jin said.

"Don't worry, you will pass the trial if you haven't done anything bad."

"Brother Zheng, have you found a job yet?" Lu Jiayao asked.

"Not yet, I'm not like one of you who is capable and the other is an undercover agent. It's too difficult for a person like me with a serious record to find a job. When I applied for a cleaner, the other party didn't want me." Ah Zheng smiled wryly. Shake your head.

"Brother Zheng, don't be discouraged, you must move forward in life, there is no obstacle you can't overcome, this is what you taught me!" Lu Jiayao comforted.

"I'm not discouraged, I just feel a little sorry for my mother. After I was released from prison, I didn't improve the living conditions at home at all. I also had an extra mouth to eat. Every time I saw my mother go out behind my back to pick up scraps and sell them , I feel really sad." Ah Zheng took a sharp puff of cigarette, and forcibly suppressed his sore nose and tears.

"Brother Zheng, have you ever thought about starting your own business? You don't have to worry about your identity record if you do business by yourself. You are very popular and can speak well. If you open a convenience store, there must be many neighbors patronizing you." Zhang Jin said.

"Brother Zheng, Ah Jin is right! If you don't know how to open a shop, you can come to my house to learn, it's actually very simple."

Ah Zheng looked at the two of them, smiled lightly, and said, "I've thought about it too, but where do I get the capital? Let's say tens of thousands of dollars to open a convenience store, let alone tens of thousands now, I don't even have hundreds of dollars. Shall I borrow usury?"

"I can lend you." Zhang Jin said.

"Brother Zheng, I can also borrow you. Although it's not much, it may only be [-] to [-], but Ah Jin and I will help together. It should be no problem for you to open a convenience store." Lu Jiayao said.

Looking at the two of them, Ah Zheng was moved in his heart, but still shook his head: "Forget it, I haven't done this business before, if I lose money, wouldn't it be a waste of the capital you lent me."

"Brother Zheng, don't say such things when you treat us as friends!" Zhang Jin put his hand on the other's shoulder and said sincerely.

"Yeah, brother Zheng, you helped me so much in prison, I don't even know how to thank you. Now that you're out, let me help you too." Lu Jiayao also imitated Zhang Jin and put his hands on On Ah Zheng's shoulders, it seemed that he could transmit his strength to the other party in this way.

"I...Okay, I accept your proposal. Ajin, Ayao, thank you for helping me when I was in the most difficult time. I won't say much about the nasty words. I will remember this kindness forever!" Ah Zheng's eyes Wet, with a crying and laughing expression.

"How can there be no wine at a time like this, Brother Zheng, Ayao, you wait, I'll go down and buy some cans of beer."

"A few cans are enough, more than a dozen cans are about the same!"

"I drank more than a dozen cans by myself, and dozens of cans are almost the same! Hahaha!"

Zhang Jin pointed to the two bragging guys: "You guys said this yourself. When I buy it back, no one is allowed to leave if I can't finish drinking!"

So, that night, except for Zhang Jin, the other two got drunk.Lu Jiayao was left at Ah Zheng's house, one sleeping on the sofa and the other sleeping on a folding bed.

A few days later, Zhang Jin yelled at your mother more than 3000 times at home using his [extra actor] skills. He collected 2 Hong Kong dollars, took 8 out of it, and added Lu Jiayao's [-] yuan to make up [-] Hong Kong dollars. The [-] yuan was handed over to Ah Zheng, which was enough for him to open a normal convenience store, and it could also guarantee the family expenses for half a year.

Now Ah Zheng has a direction for the future and is full of energy. While learning how to run a convenience store with Lu's father, he is looking for a suitable store near his home.

After a month of hard work, Ah Zheng's convenience store finally officially opened, and many neighbors came to join him on the opening day.

Because he has received a lot of help from the neighbors in the neighborhood, Ah Zheng promised that all the neighbors in the neighborhood will get a [-]% discount when they come to his convenience store to buy things, and he immediately wins the favor of all the neighbors.People living in housing estates are not considered wealthy, so of course they can save as much as they can.

After Lu's father's suggestion, Ah Zheng also set up two mahjong tables at the entrance of the convenience store to attract some poker players to play cards. This will make the convenience store look more lively and popular, which is very helpful in attracting customers.

There were a lot of things to do when the store was just opened, Ah Zheng alone was too busy, and Zhong's mother had to take her grandson to cook, so Zhang Jin, who had nothing to do for the time being, often came to help.

He had just been helping for a few days when An SIR, who had been in the news all of a sudden, found him.
