Due to the sparsely populated area of Xiushui East Street, there is only one small restaurant selling fried cakes and noodles nearby, so everyone eats quickly.

In just over half an hour, Ning Weimin and Luo Guangliang had already taken turns to fill their stomachs.

By this time, the sun had turned completely westward, and it was about to go down.

The color of the sun also changed from golden yellow to orange red, gilding the capital with a faint red light.

The situation in the market has also changed, that is, the number of people has decreased at a visible rate.

You must know that in the capital of this era, a phenomenon of black and white has always existed distinctly.

That is, there are crowds of people queuing everywhere during the day, and when night just falls, they immediately disappear and become sparsely populated.

Only the dim street lamps confirm the bleakness and loneliness of the city at night.

It's no different here.

So almost as soon as the workers dispersed, the vendors who poured their produce began to close their stalls.

No matter how much or how little they earned, most people went home with the results of this two-hour or two.

Although there were some other breeds of vendors during this period, they came here again.

For example, those who sell insoles and socks, those who sell needles and threads, and those who sell flashlights, batteries, umbrellas, and other haberdashery......

These people occupy the place where the agricultural products have receded like successors.

But there are only a few stalls.

And their goods are scarce and even more inferior.

At a glance, you can see that almost none of these people are professional hawkers.

It is purely forced by life that he has no choice, so he will sneak here to "fish" after work after work during the day.

For example, they can barely be counted as peers with Ning Weimin, and there are only two who sell clothes.

One is a stall set up by a middle-aged woman in her 40s with a bag and skin.

There is only one kind of thing sold, and that is the style of flat-legged underwear.

Pink, green, black, blue, gray, striped, striated, small-flowered......

The color is colorful, but fat and fat, there is no distinction between men and women, it should be all big pants sewn by herself.

And this eldest sister obviously didn't do it for long.

Not to mention that she was embarrassed to shout, she didn't even dare to look up at people.

Totally amateur within amateur.

Another middle-aged man of thirty-seven or eighteen is clearly a veteran with ease.

This is evident only from the fact that he is the only one of the many vendors who hangs his clothes on homemade iron racks.

And the most prominent feature of his goods is the green color.

This master sells all military uniforms, both tops and bottoms, but there are only a dozen pieces in total.

In addition, there are more than a dozen pairs of rubber-soled liberation shoes hanging on the iron frame.

If you estimate it, the total assets are about two or three hundred yuan.

This is already considered the big name among the vendors here.

In short, when the chaos recedes, all the people who should leave are gone.

There are only six or seven vendors still setting up stalls on this street.

They were compared with Ning Weimin's luxury motorcade.

It makes it even more obvious that the sales group of six tricycles is like an unfashionable giant beast.

So about five minutes later, the middle-aged man who sold military uniforms, probably couldn't bear his curiosity, finally walked up to a tricycle and came to talk.

"Brother, why are you running here to set up a stall?"

The middle-aged man took the initiative to hand a cigarette to "Xiao Tao", who was in charge of the car.

It's a pity that the "red tassel gun" in his hand is too much, and "Xiao Tao" glanced at the cigarette in the middle-aged man's hand, and then squinted and waved his hand to refuse.

"What's the matter? We can't come?"

"No, no, of course I can. ”

The middle-aged man didn't care if he was bored, he looked at "Xiao Tao", and a smile showing kindness floated again.

"How do you say that? Here, there are no people at night, in fact, there are not many people during the day, and the excitement is just a moment after work. I see that you have so many cars and so many goods, why do you have to come here to sell them?

As he spoke, he shook his head disapprovingly.

You must know that this "Xiao Tao" is actually one of the three people who bet with Ning Weimin.

Don't look at him if he can endure the light business, he has been walking with Ning Weimin and talking kindly, and now he is still here honestly.

But that was not because he had a good temper, but because he served Luo Guangliang, the eldest brother, and also got the benefits of Ning Weimin.

There is a saying that he is young and vigorous, and this "Xiao Tao" is the most fierce fighting enthusiast among Luo Guangliang's brothers.

As soon as he heard this, he thought that the middle-aged man was ridiculing himself, where could he stand it?

Immediately, it exploded like a lit firecracker!

"Grandson, where to smoke! Don't be nosy, and if you talk cheaply, Lao Tzu will smash your stall!"

Okay, a few words were thrown out, and the middle-aged man almost didn't hit his head.

The master was trembling with anger.

He never thought that he would meet a Sanqingzi who didn't know whether he was good or bad.

However, this shouting and scolding was quite loud, and Ning Weimin and Luo Guangliang also noticed it.

When Luo Guangliang stopped "Xiao Tao" from causing trouble, Ning Weimin also hurried over to appease the middle-aged man.

"Brother, don't be surprised, our business is not good today, my friend is on fire, come and smoke a cigarette, I ......will compensate you for him."

Seeing that Ning Weimin handed over the peony, he apologized politely.

The middle-aged man was half annoyed, and he took it a little embarrassed.

"I don't mean anything else, just ask...... It's okay, it's okay, forget it, I'm also troublesome......"

He wanted to leave, but Ning Weimin wanted to inquire about the situation here, so he took out a Langsheng lighter from his pocket.

He bought it at the Friendship Store and spent more than a hundred.

"Brother, there is no business anyway, let's talk for a while. Come, I'll give you a ......."

The sound of "ding" and the crisp clamshell sound attracted the attention of middle-aged people.

The master had never seen such a high-level thing, his eyes were full of surprise, and he turned his head uncontrollably with a cigarette in his mouth.

"This brother, you are not an ordinary person. That...... Whatever you want to ask, just say it. ”

The middle-aged man took a puff of his cigarette after speaking.

I don't know if such a good taste of cigarettes is good in itself, or because it is the first time he has enjoyed a cigarette roll lit with an imported lighter, and it has the bonus of psychological effect.

Anyway, it seems that he knows that he is about to flip, so he naturally knows everything.

"Haven't asked your brother for your surname?"

"Don't be expensive, my surname is Lian, and my name is Lian Changhai. I've been selling military uniforms here. Because of this, the people who often come to set up stalls here call me 'company commander', and you can call me that. ”

"Your nickname is so loud that it's hard to remember. Did you really become a soldier?"

"No, no, I thought about it at the beginning, but I didn't pass the physical examination. I asked my friends to get all these clothes. ”

"Oh, so do you set up a stall here every day, and what time do you come?"

"I'll come when I have time, almost every night. From six or seven o'clock to ten o'clock in the evening. Sundays can only come all day. Don't we still have to go to work? That's all. ”

"How's business going here that night? Is it really that bad?"

"It's not bad, it depends on what you think. Some factory workers and embassy workers leave work late. Wait patiently, there will always be an opening. Sell one or two pieces and make a little money. It's better than eating dead wages, otherwise why would we come? But you have so many goods, this is ......."

"Let's not talk about this, brother, I just want to ask you, how are foreigners here? Isn't there a diplomatic apartment behind this wall? I've been waiting for a long time now, and I don't think I've seen a foreigner yet?"

"Ahh It seems that dinner is late in the embassy area, and you can see it when you wait until half past seven or eight o'clock...... But...... But they don't understand words, they never look at our stuff...... Besides, their money is not the same as ours. It's useless for you to hold it in your hand, where can you spend it?"

Looking at the warm-hearted "company commander" eldest brother, he looked at himself with an idiot's eyes.

And such a painstaking detailed explanation.

Ning Weimin was really happy, and he almost didn't laugh out loud.

This cigarette is not in vain!
