Chapter 46: The Cannon Fodder Brother in the Chronicle

The fifteenth day of the first lunar month has passed in the blink of an eye, and the flavor of the new year in the village has gradually faded away.

Pei Hailin and Pei Jianglin are both going to school now. The two of them will take the college entrance examination this summer. Time is running out. Especially Pei Hailin, because he is with Sun Ningning and now wants to study hard to get into a school, so he rarely goes out to play after the year. Stay at home and read books all the time.

Pei Xinglin sat on the kang at home, counting the money in his hand. A total of 4,640 yuan, this is all the money he has.

At that time, his father passed away and did not leave him much money. Excluding expenses such as his father's funeral, the family only had more than 2,000 yuan left. He spent the past two years on food and drink because he was not satisfied with his situation. I didn’t work too hard, so I didn’t save more money.

The remaining two years' corn income is a small amount of one thousand yuan, plus another one thousand seven hundred yuan, which was earned in the ten days before this time.

Because I spent a fortune on shopping during the Chinese New Year, now I only have more than 4,000 yuan left.

In fact, these more than four thousand yuan are not a hindrance at all in the village. Every household only has this amount of money. If he goes to the county town to rent a house and open a shop, this money will be enough. He has learned about it himself and asked people, Houses in the county are not expensive either.

If you want to rent a shop, six hundred to one thousand a year is definitely enough, but the money is different and the location is different.

For example, a shop next to a school will definitely be more expensive, and a shop next to a bustling newly built shopping mall will also be a bit more expensive. However, if Pei Xinglin wants to do business, he must rent in a slightly more prosperous place.

The county now has two main roads, which are distributed in a 'well' shape. The vertical one is the commercial street of the county. Pei Xinglin wants to rent a shop at the corner of the horizontal line inserted into the vertical one. .

Last year, he conducted a careful on-site inspection and circled several suitable shops. One of them was on the second floor of the small shop. The first floor was a large shop. The second floor could be where he and Xiao Duoyue could rest. The place has a good atmosphere, and there is a kindergarten two kilometers away from the house. If Xiaotu wants to go to school later, it will be more convenient and close to him.

Pei Xinglin kept asking, but the annual rent for that shop was one thousand yuan, one thousand yuan, which can be said to be the annual income of rural people. However, that shop still has room to reduce the price, and I should be able to get it for 850 yuan.

There was also the decoration of the store. He saw the decoration of the provincial capital, with white putty walls, a place for hanging clothes in the back, and glass cabinets in the front. As soon as he signed the contract for the shop, he would have someone measure the cabinets and make the cabinets. This piece The matter can be handled in Bailiang Village. There are good cabinet makers in the village, and the speed is quite fast.

But, I have to be busy again.

"Brother, why are you unhappy?" Xiao Duoyue, who was drawing next to him, saw his brother stop writing and came over to touch him.

"Brother is fine, I was just thinking about something." Pei Xinglin held his brother in his arms.

"Brother will be away for a few days in the next two days, Xiaotu, okay?" Pei Xinglin nuzzled his brother's hair with his chin.

"Xiaotu, can't you go with your brother?" Pei Duoyue's eyes were a little disappointed when he heard his brother's words.

"My brother is busy this time. Xiaotu, please just wait for him at home, okay?" Pei Xinglin saw his brother's eyes and subconsciously covered them with his hands.

He wants to give his younger brother a good life, but every time he sees his younger brother's eyes, he doesn't want to leave Xiao Duoyue. This contradictory thought has taken root in his heart from some unknown time. Now, it hasn't He was already feeling uncomfortable if he left.

"Brother is going to purchase goods this time. After we finish it, we will go to the county seat. Xiao Duoyue, please wait for brother, okay?" Pei Xinglin said slowly, patting Xiao Duoyue's back gently.

As long as he goes to the provincial capital, his goal is only to reach the provincial capital.

He saw children living in the provincial capital. Their clothes were all clean. They were holding hands on the way to school. They were talking about the Children's Palace and cartoons. They were completely different from the children in the village. He saw the Chinese language books for children today, and there were parks, supermarkets, and children's palaces on them, which the children in the village had never heard of.

He wanted to give Xiao Duoyue that kind of life.

He stroked the child's hair again. Xiaotu relied on him so much. Xiaotu was also his most important brother, so he had to think about Xiaotu.

He can't be satisfied with the present. He should give Xiaotu a life of choice, instead of being like his parents. In the final analysis, it's about money and the environment.

"Xiao Duoyue, please bear with me a little longer. When my brother saves enough money, he will stay with Xiao Duoyue."

He had thought of everything. The village was still too small. Besides, Xiaotu had also reached the age of going to kindergarten. At this age, it is impossible for Xiaotu to go to kindergarten in the village.

Little Rabbit has such a good talent for painting, and he always felt that he should find a serious teacher to teach Little Rabbit.

He looked at his little brother in his arms and blinked. He had a fair and tender face, dark eyebrows and red lips, and he was full of energy. For such a child, he always felt that he should give his brother the best.

Seeing his brother's somewhat embarrassed look, Pei Duoyue grabbed his clothes and gave a pitiful hum.

------------------------

Two months from now, on March 29th, Pei Xinglin's shop will officially open.

"Why is it a women's clothing store? You are a man opening a women's clothing store." When

her grandson opened a store for the first time, Grandma Pei always came to see it. She thought her grandson was still selling wool, but she didn't expect that Pei Xinglin opened a women's clothing store.

There is a man in the store, how can he be so embarrassed to come in and buy it?

"Grandma, why do you still have old ideas? Why can't men open women's clothing stores? Before that, good tailor shops were all opened by men. Moreover, Xinglin is not a man, he is still young. "

Yes, grandma, there is no such thing now. Many women's clothing wholesale markets in big cities are run by men."

"Xinglin's clothes are so beautiful, so many people must come in to buy them. They are all Pengcheng clothes." "

Pei Hailin, Pei Xuan and Pei Qian sang in harmony, talking to his grandma while looking at Pei Xinglin's shop.

This store really shines in front of their eyes.

The wall of the store front is painted with milky yellow paint, which is bright and beautiful. There is a light wooden signboard that says 'Duoduo Clothing Store', and there are light bulbs modified by Pei Xinglin. Below, there are two large pieces of glass, with a layer of lace curtains hanging on the glass, which does not block the light but also provides the privacy of the store. People feel that this store is clean and high-end.

The walls of the store are also clean white, with hangers for clothes on them, both vertical and horizontal templates, which look both casual and high-end. Below is a glass display cabinet, which is divided into categories, some of which are wool, some of which are clothes, and there is also an area where girls' favorite headbands are placed. There is also

a place to try on clothes in the store, as well as a sofa and table. The sofa was also brought back by Pei Xinglin from the provincial capital. It is different from the wooden sofas in the village, but a sofa that is soft and thick enough to sink people into. The surface of the sofa is also made of warm The sofa cover made of yellow fabric looks very warm...

There are surprises everywhere. Pei Xuan and Pei Qian love this store.

"Why are you so good at choosing women's clothes? It's so beautiful. This dress is similar to the one worn by the female star I saw recently. She looked so good in it. I liked it very much at the time."

"The decoration of the store is also different from the stores in the county. It doesn't look like a store selling clothes. Instead, it looks like a coffee shop in a movie. It's so clean and high-end. I really want to come here after school."

"And those. The hairband is also very nice, it looks very elegant, just like the hairpins on the stars' heads in movies."

Pei Xinglin looked at Pei Xuan and Pei Qian's admiration and felt that he should have grasped the young girl's mind.

As for grandma's question, he was originally hesitant about whether to make women's clothing. After all, he is a boy, and it seemed that there were many inconveniences in opening a women's clothing store. However, when he was selling wool during the Chinese New Year, he didn't see any of the aunts not coming over because he was a boy.

Moreover, Pei Xinglin always feels that he has some talent in matching clothes. He always knows what kind of clothes are suitable for who. This time, he matched two sets of the clothes he picked out and wore them on the mannequins he bought. Many people have come in and asked.

The most important thing is that women's clothing is the industry that he has investigated and can make the most profit with his existing capital.

He wants to use his own vision to open up the market for women.

"By the way, where is Xiao Duoyue?" Zhang Chunhong looked at the clothes hanging on the wall for a long time and finally remembered Xiao Duoyue.

When Pei Xinglin came back from Pengcheng, he also asked them to pick two pieces. They happily chose the one they liked best, thinking that they had chosen the best one. But now, look at what Pei Xinglin hung on the wall. With the matching clothes, I feel like my clothes are ordinary again.

After admiring the beautiful clothes for a long time, Zhang Chunhong found that there were fewer people in the store.

"I sent Little Rabbit to my neighbor's grandma's house."

When talking about this topic, Pei Xinglin pursed his lips and answered somewhat reluctantly.

"What's going on? Why such an expression?" Zhang Chunhong laughed when she saw Pei Xinglin's look.

Although the store just opened today, Pei Xinglin and Pei Duoyue didn't just come here today. The second floor of the shop was also where the previous owners lived. Pei Xinglin slightly changed the layout, scrubbed it, and moved in with his younger brother.

However, some time ago, the store was being renovated, and he was afraid that someone would bump into his younger brother, so he sent the little boy to the home of Grandma Zhang in the yard.

Grandma Zhang was a teacher before and is now retired. However, because there are many dual-career workers in the city, she also helps take care of the children. While taking care of the children, she also teaches them how to read and write.

There are many children there, there are story books, you can draw, and there are also snacks made by Grandma Zhang. Now Xiao Duoyue is enjoying herself at Grandma Zhang's place. She is no longer the child who calls out for her brother every day!

"You two brothers are really interesting, and you are jealous of each other." Zhang Chunhong and the others laughed after listening to Pei Xinglin's words, "In the few days you left, oh, you didn't see Xiao Duoyue like that. She was also wilting every day. Yes, ask every day, when will my brother come back? "

"Now you are jealous of your brother again, you two hahaha" Pei Xinglin said nothing and let them laugh.

He thought that he was just not used to it. Xiao Duoyue was waiting for him at home every day, but now, the little guy is probably still having fun at his house.

In the afternoon, we caught the last train and everyone went home at four or five o'clock. Only Pei Xuan, Pei Qian, and Pei Yaolin were left in the store.

"Are you going to pick up Xiao Duoyue?" Pei Qian asked.

"Yeah."

"Then let's stay in the store. Your store is too comfortable, and this sofa is too comfortable. There is a table here, just perfect for doing homework."

"Yes, I will definitely call my classmates to come to you in the future. We can't afford clothes in the store, but we can still afford those little hair ties." Pei Qian walked around, lying on the counter, looking at the hair ties and scarves inside.

"Then you come more often. If you attract classmates, I will give you wages." Pei Xinglin also said with a smile.

However, his smiling face disappeared after he left the store, because he saw his younger brother holding a little girl who was more than half a head taller than him. She was Grandma Zhang's granddaughter.

Two little cubs, a little bit bigger, were jumping around and talking. They didn't know what they were talking about. Both of them were smiling.

"Little Rabbit." Pei Xinglin called his brother.

"Brother!" Pei Duoyue also saw his brother, holding the little girl and running over on her short legs.

"Why don't you two walk well? What should you do if you jump and fall?" Pei Xinglin squatted down, picked up his brother, and held the little girl with his other hand.

"Happy! Xiaotu is happy." Pei Duoyue bent his eyes, rubbed his smiling face with his little hands, and then rubbed his brother's big face, "Brother, will you always be in the store from now on?"

"Yes. "

Great, Xiaotu can look for his brother in the future." The little guy grabbed his brother's collar.

"Are you happy because of this?" Pei Xinglin left a little slowly because he was holding the little girl.

"Yes, brother, sister Xiaoling and I learned a dance. When he opens the store, Xiaotu will perform for him to celebrate~"

"So great?"

The two little guys laughed shyly when they heard Pei Xinglin's expression. .

...

Beihua County may not be big, but it's not small either. There are three high schools in the county. Recently, what the girls were talking about after class was the newly opened clothing store on Ning'an Street.

The decoration of the store makes people feel very warm, and the clothes inside are also dazzlingly beautiful. There are also many beautiful hair ties and hairpins to match the clothes.

The most important thing is that the owner of that clothing store is really handsome, and the owner's younger brother is also very cute.

"Although I was a little embarrassed at first, he is really good at matching clothes. The clothes he picked for me are more beautiful than the clothes I chose myself."

"You all go shopping for clothes. Am I the only one who goes to see the little girl?" How old is he?"

"So cute, but are you getting into trouble?"

"When?"
