"Why are you so slow?" Liu Yuanhe waited for his son at the gate of the vegetable market in the county seat for almost an hour before waiting.

Liu Qingshan stopped the car, and while unloading the goods, he said: "Hey, isn't it a long way, and with so many things on board, I definitely can't drive too fast." Dad, you sell it here, and I'll go to another vegetable market to sell it. ”

Liu Yuanhe was a little worried: "Will this work?"

"It works, don't worry, it's not a problem for us to sell more than 100 catties of yams by ourselves. After Liu Qingshan comforted his father, he greeted the uncles and aunts next to him, "Uncle, aunt, this is my father, today we came out to sell yams together, he has not seen anything in the world, and I trouble you to take care of it more." ”

A few vendors immediately smiled and said, "No problem." ”

"I didn't expect your dad to be so young. ”

"No wonder you look so handsome, your daring is inherited from your father. ”

Hearing this, Liu Yuanhe's old face suddenly smiled, and he was overjoyed.

Seeing him like that, Liu Qingshan didn't bother to hit him, and after explaining some important things, he drove a motorcycle and pulled a sack of yams to another vegetable market.

Before leaving, Liu Yuanhe deliberately provoked: "Let's compete and see who sells out first." ”

Liu Qingshan didn't reply to him directly, but just explained: "I don't care when you sell it, you have to sell it at a price of twenty yuan a catty." ”

The other vegetable market is a little far from the central square, at the other end of the county, about two or three kilometers away from the central vegetable market.

This is the second largest vegetable market in the county.

There are also a few smaller markets in other places that are less crowded.

Probably because few mountain people dig wild yams this season, Liu Qingshan soon welcomed his first customer as soon as he opened his yam at the entrance of the second largest vegetable market.

After that, other customers also kept asking for prices.

However, the price of this yam is indeed a little higher, and the flow of people in this market is less than that of the central vegetable market, so after selling it in one morning, most of the yam was sold.

After lunch, it took a while to sell all the yams.

Liu Qingshan thought that the first time my father came to the county seat to sell, it was estimated that it was not so smooth, and it was estimated that there were still some yams that had not been sold. So I quickly cleaned up the stall and rode back to the entrance of the central vegetable market.

But strangely, there was no trace of my father at the entrance of the vegetable market.

"Uncle, where is my dad?" Liu Qingshan glanced at the door of the vegetable market several times but didn't see his father, and he couldn't help but be a little puzzled.

"Your father?" the fat uncle who sold vegetables stopped what he was doing and said with a strange expression, "Didn't your father come to you after selling yams?"

"Looking for me?" Liu Qingshan frowned, "No, I didn't see him, when did his yams run out?"

"It was sold out before noon. The fat uncle recalled, "At that time, a person came and bought all of your father's yams at once, but the man said that he didn't have so much money on him and wanted to pay your father with WeChat, but your father said that he didn't have WeChat." In the end, the two discussed, and your father took the yam and left with the man, saying that they were going to get the money together. ”

"yes. The aunt who sold vegetables also came over, "At that time, your father still had fifty or sixty catties of yam left, and the man was all over at once." We also said your dad was lucky. Why, he didn't come to you after selling yams?"

"Nope. Liu Qingshan felt a little anxious in his heart.

Although it is said that my father also has a primary school diploma and can know a few words, after all, he has been in the mountains for so long, where will he know the world outside.

And he, Liu Qingshan, has lived for so long, and the most terrifying thing he has encountered is being bullied by the contractor and washing his hair room, but this does not mean that there are no more terrifying things in this world.

For example, what kind of human trafficking and organ theft are mentioned on the Internet, but every time you encounter one, it is enough to crush a family.

Liu Qingshan looked around anxiously, but still didn't see his father, so he asked anxiously: "At that time, did the person who bought the yam say where to take my father to get the money?"

"No, I don't. "Uncle Fat is sure. Because he was closest to the two of them, he heard the words of the two very clearly, and indeed he only said to get the money, but did not say where to get the money.

"If I had gone to get the money, I would have gotten it a long time ago. The aunt lowered her head slightly, and she was also worried, "It's been a few hours, even if you go to the suburbs to get money, you can walk back." ”

"yes. The other vendors also came over and hurried along.

Liu Qingshan was really anxious now, and he didn't know what to do for a while.

"Oh, don't be in a hurry, call your dad. The fat uncle said.

Liu Qingshan's eyes lit up, and then he hurriedly took out his mobile phone and called his father.

But the strange thing is that he made three or four calls in a row, but his father didn't answer.

"Got through, didn't pick up. Liu Qingshan looked at his mobile phone, so anxious that sweat broke out.

"Don't worry, you go look for it first, your dad is such a big person, he is strong, and he may not have an accident. Auntie comforted.

"Yes, yes, you go looking for it first, go to the pedestrian street, maybe your dad goes shopping. The fat uncle said as he took out his mobile phone, "You tell me your phone number again, if your dad comes back, I will call you, your dad doesn't answer the phone, and it is possible that he lost his phone." ”

"It makes sense, maybe your dad went to dinner, and it was possible that he rested and fell asleep at the place where he ate. ”

This kind of thing can often be seen.

Some old men often eat noodles in some noodle shops and lie on the table to rest, and this rest accidentally falls asleep. As long as the business is not busy, the people in the powder shop will not rush people.

Liu Qingshan felt that there was some reason, so he quickly put down the motorcycle and ran towards the pedestrian street.

The pedestrian street is just across the street from the entrance to the market, just across the road.

Although it is a pedestrian street, the street is not very long. Three 100-meter-long streets are connected end to end and form a triangle. On both sides of the street are a variety of shops, as well as a few vendors selling snacks and small owners who make mobile phone films.

Liu Qingshan felt that there was still some truth in the words of his uncles and aunts. Dad hasn't been to the county seat for so long, and since he has come, maybe he will go shopping here on the pedestrian street and buy some clothes and shoes.

Besides, didn't he always want to buy a smart phone? Today, he sold more than 100 catties of yams, how can he have more than 2,000 yuan, maybe he is carrying the money to buy a mobile phone.

Thinking like this, Liu Qingshan hurriedly went to a store selling mobile phones next to him.
