Reborn 92's Business Tycoon

Chapter 73: No Fair

After waiting for a while and seeing that no one was coming, Feng Zhenchang, wearing a straw hat in the hot sun, rode his bike around the university town, shouting from time to time, 'Roasted chestnuts are ready! Fragrant and sweet roasted chestnuts are ready!'

They make several rounds of the university town every day and are now very familiar with the area.

Mei Qiuping follows behind, introducing the schools they have just passed to Feng Yiping. At the end, she asks Feng Yiping, 'What school do you want to go to in the future?'

They have now been painted by Feng Yiping, and naturally think that their son will definitely get into university.

'Of course I'll go to the most famous one!' Feng Yiping says to his mother with a smile.

'Haha, yes, definitely the most famous one,' Feng Zhenchang overstated.

By almost 12 o'clock, they had slowly wandered around, selling a total of more than 7 jin. Feng Zhenchang still parked the tricycle under the big tree, while Feng Yiping and his mother went back to their place to make lunch.

At noon, after they had finished eating, they took the food to Feng Zhenchang again, and then continued to wander around the university town in the afternoon. It was not until after dark that the family hurried back to their place.

When they arrived at their place of residence, it was already past eight again. After another round of busyness, it was past ten again when Feng Yiping finished washing up and went to bed.

Every day was like this, and Feng Yiping could see why Feng Zhenchang looked even thinner than before. Mei Qiuping, who had originally been a bit overweight, had also lost a lot of weight. It was really not easy for them to get through the day like this.

Not to mention anything else, Feng Zhenchang drinks at least two bottles of water a day, so you can imagine how much sweat he produces in a day.

Back home, he could rest during the slack season, go to bed at 8 or 9 pm, and get up at 6 or 7 am. Now, he has to go to the market every day, stays busy until after 10 pm, gets up at 5 am, and can't eat well during the day. He is also in a foreign land, and there are no people to visit. Overall, it is really not as easy as farming at home.

Of course, this is Feng Yiping's view. For Feng Zhenchang and the others, they don't think about whether it's hard or not. Now at least a few tens of dollars come in every day, and this kind of life gives people hope.

After a few days, everything else was fine, except that Feng Yiping was lacking sleep. Many times, once the tricycle stopped, he would find a place to take a nap for a little while, which made Mei Qiuping feel sad. The day at the end of the month happened to be a Sunday, so they let Feng Yiping sleep in the morning and not get up until noon, when they would bring him lunch.

He slept so soundly that when Feng Yiping woke up, he didn't know what time it was. To commemorate the first time he slept until he naturally woke up after being reborn, he decided to stay in bed for a few more minutes.

Apart from the clanging of the train, it was very quiet. The people renting rooms in the surrounding buildings seemed to be away from home, all going about their daily lives.

He heard someone shouting in the alley, 'Sharpening scissors and cleavers', and looked at the clock. It was almost ten o'clock, so he jumped out of bed.

It's really quite strange. The state has set many national standards and enforced them, but many of them have had little effect. However, in some areas, no standards have been set at all, and the country is surprisingly uniform.

For example, in the knife-sharpening trade, no matter where you go, everyone shouts the same thing, 'Sharpen scissors and knives,' which is surprisingly uniform.

Of course, this may have something to do with Liu Huan singing the song 'The Old Knife Sharpener' at the 1989 Spring Festival Gala.

Feng Yiping took the food and finally found Feng Zhenchang and the others near the Polytechnic University. There was not much business, and they were about to leave.

They praised Feng Yiping's cooking while eating, and there was no need to worry about Feng Yiping going hungry when he moved out next semester.

Just kidding, Feng Yiping is not at all like his father Feng Zhenchang. After getting married, Feng Yiping has been very respectful of his wife, and has done a lot of the shopping, cooking and washing up. The home-cooked meals he makes taste pretty good.

'Let's stay at the University of Finance and Economics for a few days,' Feng Yiping suggests to his parents.

'Why? Is there something going on there?'

'No, I just want to go in and study.'

That's a good enough reason. 'Okay, we'll spend the afternoon there.'

When you are at school, you may not realise that if your grades are better than someone else's, then you are better than them. You won't suddenly find a classmate who has suddenly become very diligent and who has chosen their subjects carefully, and whose grades are actually better than yours.

But when we leave school and grow up, we will understand more and more that the so-called 'fairness' is really a myth.

You work hard, you fight hard, you struggle, but often, you will helplessly discover that what you have done is actually not as good as other people's luck.

Let's not talk about other things, just talk about what's around you.

You have a colleague who, one day, perhaps on a whim, picked up the rubbish in the office corridor and was spotted by a superior or company leader. Without your knowledge, they left a good impression on the leader, and since then, he, whose abilities and motivation are far inferior to yours, has been promoted all the way up the ranks. Now, you can only look up to him, and when he sees you, it's a cordial reception.

Perhaps a colleague whose family background was not as good as yours was forced by his girlfriend's mother to buy a house. His whole family scrimped and saved and sold their valuables to buy the house. However, within a year of getting the house, its value had increased by more than 20%. To this day, his house has increased in value several times and is his most successful investment. The increase in value alone is equivalent to the salary you have worked so hard to earn over decades.

Maybe you and a colleague both speculate in stocks, and you rack your brains every day, doing all kinds of analysis, but after half a year the returns are just enough to pay for your child's formula. He, on the other hand, doesn't even bother to check the market, but is lucky enough to get a subscription to a popular IPO. After the ban is lifted, the profits he makes from cashing out are more than your hard-earned income from working like a horse for an entire year.

Maybe you have a friend who is inferior to you in looks, knowledge and ability, and to this day, he has never even held a girl's hand. But suddenly one day, the urban village where his family lives was demolished, and his family's self-built house was exchanged for two commercial housing units, not to mention an additional compensation of tens of millions of cash. As a result, next, one after another of the goddesses that you could only secretly drool over in the past immediately pounced on him like moths to a flame.

There are also other things. For example, you are presenting a prototype to an important customer, and if this deal goes through, your income this year will double that of last year. So you choose the prototype carefully, debug it repeatedly to make sure there are no problems, and then when you get there, you turn it on and it won't even start. And the problem can't be fixed quickly...

So all hopes are dashed immediately.
