While eating, Cheng Hao handed Lin Yuxun's clothes to Lin Yuxun: "Try it on."
Lin Yuxun is very thin. As long as the clothes are long enough, there is no need to worry that he won't be able to fit them. Shopping for clothes is still very simple. Cheng Hao chose a few styles according to his preferences.
He has always liked bright colors. When buying clothes, he chose bright red and yellow for Danny. When he came to Lin Yuxun, he restrained himself a bit, but he also chose beige clothes and wine red pants.
Because he didn't have enough money, Cheng Hao bought all the clothes and pants that were cheap, but even so, these were new clothes.
All these years, Lin Yuxun bought all his clothes from thrift stores. His father had bought him new clothes before, but those clothes were also dusty—his father thought black and gray clothes were durable. dirty.
It was the first time he saw such new and bright clothes.
Lin Yuxun held the clothes that still exuded the unique smell of new clothes, and stood there in a daze - can he wear such clothes
Cheng Hao said again: "Go and try it on."
Lin Yuxun took the clothes and went into the bedroom inside to change.
Cheng Hao saw it, and said to Danny: "I don't know if your brother looks good in this dress, alas... I don't look good in it at all."
As soon as Cheng Hao crossed over, he found that he had a good-looking body. He boasted about it at the time, but when he went shopping for clothes today, he was shocked.
He found that there are many clothes that he doesn't look good in, and the reason is very simple... He is dark.
A few days ago, he went out to exercise every afternoon. Every time he exercised, he was outdoors, and he got tanned after being exposed to the sun.
Those who watched the game yesterday were able to call "cute" to his black face, which is also very powerful.
But thinking about it again, even if he is black, he is still whiter than those black people, so he is actually okay
Cheng Hao said to Danny again: "Danny, you look so good now, don't look crooked in the future... If you don't look crooked, I think you will be able to fascinate little girls with just your face in the future .”
Danny didn't know what Cheng Hao was talking about at all. He looked at Cheng Hao and then at the bedroom door.
After changing his clothes, Lin Yuxun came out from inside.
Cheng Hao is a straight man with aesthetics, and his matching is actually a mess, and the material of the clothes he bought is not very good.
But wearing such clothes on Lin Yuxun seemed to make Lin Yuxun a different person.
The clothes Lin Yuxun wore before were all baggy, but the clothes Cheng Hao chose this time fit them very well. And Lin Yuxun, who is sixteen years old this year and is growing tall, also has a pair of long legs.
At this moment, Lin Yuxun didn't lower his head like he usually does outside, but raised his head, revealing a handsome face.
Cheng Hao said: "It's true that Buddha relies on gold clothes and people rely on clothes. You look so good after changing clothes!" Lin Yuxun and Danny's mother should be pretty, otherwise the two brothers' looks would not be so outstanding.
Lin Yuxun blushed, and felt that he was useless - as long as he thought that Cheng Hao bought the clothes because he was fighting someone, he felt that the clothes were too heavy for him to wear.
But it is impossible for him not to wear it.
Cheng Hao bought him clothes, if he didn't wear them, would Cheng Hao be unhappy
Lin Yuxun had all sorts of thoughts in his mind, but Cheng Hao started to call him out for dinner, and said, "Lin Yuxun, after a few days I have paid next week's salary, let's move to another place to live."
"Why?" Lin Yuxun asked: "It's very good here." The main reason is to save money here. Even with the current increase of two yuan, the weekly rent of Mr. Dampier's garage is only eight yuan. It was the cheapest place in the neighborhood, and if it wasn't for Aunt Beverly, he might not have been able to rent it.
The most important thing is that he can afford such a rent, if it is more expensive, he will not be able to afford it.
Cheng Hao said: "It's too unsafe here. When I came back from shopping today, there were people poking around outside. If possible, we'd better change our place of residence."
"But… "
"You don't have to worry about money, I can make money!" Cheng Hao smiled brightly at Lin Yuxun
Lin Yuxun didn't want him to make money at all.
He wanted Cheng Hao not to punch, but he logically didn't know about it... For a moment, his throat seemed to be blocked, making him speechless.
Cheng Hao said again: "I spent all my money today. I really shouldn't... We still have to save money in the future. At that time, we will move out of this community and find another community where you and Danny can go to school."
"I've grown up and don't need to go to school." Lin Yuxun said without thinking.
"You don't want to go to school?" Cheng Hao looked at Lin Yuxun in surprise.
Lin Yuxun said, "I don't want to go to school."
"Don't you want to make money? How can you make money without going to school?" Cheng Hao asked.
"I can make money now." Lin Yuxun said.
Cheng Hao looked at Lin Yuxun seriously: "Lin Yuxun, we need to have a good talk."
Cheng Hao felt that it was necessary for him to brainwash Lin Yuxun and make him change his current thinking.
He admits that some people in this world can achieve amazing success without reading, but it is not easy.
They may have caught the express train of the times. For example, in China during this period, there was a group of people who may not have much culture, but dared to work hard and quickly made a fortune.
Some of them are born very well, have extensive knowledge and contacts, and use this to achieve success. These people have excellent family backgrounds, and of course they don't need to have a degree.
But it is difficult for Lin Yuxun to do this. He does not have a good family background, and the country they live in is not full of opportunities like China is now.
In the United States at this time, unless poor and uneducated people do jobs like boxing like him, it is too difficult to get ahead.
So what if Lin Yuxun is smart? If he has to work hard to make ends meet, does he have time to learn and change his life? He will just be mediocre all his life.
In his previous life, Cheng Hao didn't study much when he was young, he was all training. Later, when he got older, he calmed down and read a lot of books. He basically read bestsellers, and he just read them casually, but he still remembered a lot of content. For example, there was a book called "My Life at the Bottom", which impressed him deeply.
This book is written about the lives of the people at the bottom of the United States. The author of this book hides her identity and status to experience the life of the bottom class, and then finds that no matter how hard she tries, she can only struggle to maintain a basic life...
So what if Lin Yuxun is smarter? If he can't leave the community and receive a better education, how can he have the opportunity to show his talent
"If you keep working part-time, then after you pay the rent, food and other bills, you will never be able to save money, and you will always have to live the life you are now, no different from everyone around you. But if you If you can learn, you have the opportunity to change your destiny. You should know how high the income of doctors and lawyers is, and those who make investments, after they achieve the extreme, they can even bring down the economy of a small country.” Cheng Hao talked a lot to Lin Yuxun.
In his previous life, he was so focused on boxing that he didn't even know how to buy stocks, but he had heard of it for investment or Internet industry bosses, so he gave some examples at this time.
Cheng Hao said a lot, but Lin Yuxun kept his head down and didn't answer.
He knew what Cheng Hao said was right.
But he is more aware that studying requires a lot of money, and they have no money.
Cheng Hao had been thinking about himself, but Lin Yuxun didn't want to hear it anymore. He changed the subject: "Actually, it's very simple to change a house. There is still a vacant loft above this building, we can rent it."
"Still living here?" Cheng Hao hesitated.
"Mr. Dampier's rent is not expensive. The most important thing is that the attic is above the floor where Mr. Dampier lives, which is safer." Lin Yuxun whispered, talking about the situation of the attic.
After listening to Lin Yuxun's explanation, Cheng Hao also thought it was a good idea.
The building they live in occupies an area of about ninety square meters. It has three floors in total, and there is a low attic above the third floor. All of this belongs to Mr. Dampier.
Mr. Dampier didn't have a job. He lived on the third floor by himself. Then he divided the ground floor and the second floor into two parts and rented it out to four families.
The attic is connected to a small balcony. There are three rooms in total, and the rent is not low. The person who rented there before was just driven away by Mr. Dampier before Cheng Hao appeared because he could not pay the rent.
The fact that Mr. Dampier is so irritable these days has something to do with the fact that his attic has not been rented out... The rent for the attic is 15 yuan a week. Failure to rent it out means that his weekly income will be reduced by 15 yuan.
"After a few days, we'll rent the attic." Cheng Hao said.
At the beginning, he had a bad impression of Mr. Dampier, after all, Mr. Dampier was too fierce at that time.
But after finding out that everyone here was very irritable, he calmed down.
"I have money now." Lin Yuxun said, after thinking for a while, he went into the bedroom, and then fished out in several different places, took out a lot of money, and put all of it in front of Cheng Hao: " I have money, if you want to change the house, we can change it immediately, you don't have to work."
Lin Yu's act of hiding his belongings separately like a little mouse is cute... Cheng Hao counted the money.
A total of one hundred and fifty-seven yuan.
As soon as he finished counting, Lin Yuxun took out a few silver coins from the pocket of the clothes he had just changed. If they were put together, it would be one hundred and sixty yuan.
Converted into RMB before Cheng Hao crossed, it was about four to five thousand, which is the salary of an ordinary person for a month.
"Actually, I have a lot of money..." Lin Yuxun said, he knew that Cheng Hao thought he was poor, but in fact, he had saved some money.
Sometimes he would rather eat less and try to save money.
Cheng Hao: "..."
He just spent two hundred yuan in one go today, and he really didn't think that one hundred yuan was a lot...
However, if they have this money, they don't have to wait a few days before moving, they can move right now.
Cheng Hao said: "You are so amazing that you have saved so much money... I will go to Mr. Dampier and we will move right away."
"So fast?" Lin Yuxun was a little taken aback.
Cheng Hao patted Lin Yuxun's shoulder: "Xiaoxun, my brother will teach you one more thing. Whatever we want to do, we must do it right away. Only those with enough mobility can succeed."
Lin Yuxun was thoughtful, but Cheng Hao had already taken the money and went upstairs to knock on the door of Mr. Dampier's room.
Although the living conditions in the garage on the ground floor are not good, it is easy to rent out because of the cheap price. In contrast, it is not so easy to rent out the attic.
Mr. Dampier is very happy for Lin Yuxun and Cheng Hao to rent another place, but there is one thing that needs to be resolved first: "My door! You must change my door!"
The author has something to say:
