Chapter Twenty-Six: It's Not Easy

After eating at the old branch secretary's house, Ye Lin was about to go out with the old branch secretary, and at this time, Ye Lin saw a basket of sweet potatoes at the gate of the courtyard, so he stopped.

"What's wrong?" Seeing Ye Lin stop, the old branch secretary asked.

"Old branch secretary, can you give me a few sweet potatoes, I can buy them. ”

"What to buy, isn't it just a few sweet potatoes? The old branch secretary shook his head, went over and took a few large sweet potatoes, and said, "Let's go, put it in the carriage in a while." ”

"Old branch secretary, if you need my help in the future, let someone go to the city to find me. After speaking, Ye Lin took out a pen and wrote an address to the old branch secretary, of course, the address of his house.

"Okay. The old branch secretary didn't read it, so he put it in his pocket, and it is estimated that he didn't take it seriously.

After leaving the courtyard, Ye Lin thought about one more thing to do, so he said to the old branch secretary: "Where does that uncle named Da Kui live?"

"What, you're looking for him?"

"Something. ”

"Okay, I'll take you there. ”

"No, you can go over and prepare first, I'll go myself. ”

Hearing Ye Lin say this, the old branch secretary nodded, and then shouted to a group of children who were playing, "Dog, come here." ”

A little boy ran over, wiped his nose and said, "Grandpa Zhishu, you call me." ”

"This little brother is going to your house, you show me the way. ”

It turned out that this little boy was a child of the uncle's family, and also, if not, the old branch secretary would not have called him.

"Go to my house. ”

"Yes, lead the way. ”

"Oh. ”

The little boy took Ye Lin to his house, and the old branch secretary also went to prepare, after knowing that the little boy was the uncle's son, Ye Lin had no intention of going, so when he was halfway there, Ye Lin stopped.

Pretended to open the box and took out a piece of meat from it, this piece of meat was sold to Ye Lin by the uncle, but this was only half of that piece of meat.

"I won't go to your house, you can take this piece of meat back. ”

Seeing Ye Lin hand over a piece of meat, the little girl's eyes lit up, but she still shook her head and said, "What are you doing for our meat?"

"Ask so much what to do, give it to you and you will take it, remember, take it home. Ye Lin stuffed the meat into the little boy's hand, and rode his bicycle to the pigsty.

There are no bicycles in the village, but there are carriages, and when Ye Lin came over, the old branch secretary had already arranged for someone to prepare the carriage, and was helping to tie up the pigs with a few young people, even if the three little pigs were wild boars, they were still small pigs.

A few young people and the old branch secretary tied up three times and divided by two, and in order to prevent the piglets from biting indiscriminately, even their mouths were tied.

After putting the three little wild boars on the carriage and putting Ye Lin's small bicycle and box on it, the old branch secretary said to Ye Lin: "He will send you to the city." The old branch secretary pointed to a young man and said.

"Hmm. ”

Ye Lin also took out thirty yuan from his pocket and handed it to the old branch secretary, when the money was in the old branch secretary's house, Ye Lin wanted to give it to him, but the old branch secretary didn't ask for it, and asked Ye Lin to give it in front of everyone.

"Okay, I'll take the money. ”

When Ye Lin got into the carriage, the young man said, "You sit down, we're about to go." ”

"Let's go, I'm seated. ”

"Drive. The young man threw his whip.

Whether it was in his previous life or in this life, Ye Lin had never been in a carriage, when he was watching TV in his previous life, he saw someone riding in a carriage, Ye Lin was still very envious, and now that he is on it, Ye Lin no longer has this feeling.

This carriage is really uncomfortable to sit on, it can be said that it is as uncomfortable as it is, the carriage has no shock absorption, it is completely to see the road, the road of this era, and it is also a rural road, you can imagine.

Just when Ye Lin felt that his buttocks were about to toss, the carriage finally came to the edge of the city, a few hundred meters away from Desheng Gate.

"Big brother, stop. ”

"Phew!" the young man stopped the carriage, turned his head and asked Ye Lin, "What's wrong?"

"The road from here is all right, just leave me here. ”

"But the old branch secretary asked me to send you to the city. ”

"No, besides, if you don't say who knows, just send it here. ”

"This ......" the young man thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay, then you be careful." ”

"Yes. ”

The young man helped Ye Lin unload the bicycle and the box first, Ye Lin went over and opened the lock on the box, and said to the young man: "You hand me the little pig, and I will put it in the box." ”

"Hmm. ”

The young man handed over one, and Ye Lin put one in the box, but it was actually put into the space, and after putting the three little pigs in, Ye Lin locked the box, stood up and said to the young man: "Big brother, go back, thank you." ”

"No, I don't. ”

The young man drove the carriage back, Ye Lin also left on a bicycle, he didn't go home, anyway, the little wild boar had been put into the pigsty in the space, and it was the same if he didn't go back now.

So Ye Lin rode his bicycle to Fuchengmen, and now it was past noon, and he was going to the pigeon market over there.

If it was someone else, he just made trouble at Fuchengmen yesterday, and he wouldn't go anywhere today, but Ye Lin is no one else, he is Ye Lin, so he came.

There are a lot fewer people here in Fuchengmen today than yesterday, too, this is normal, yesterday here was just thrown by the red armband once, and there is no talent normal today.

Ye Lin set up the stall and began to sell.

"Little brother, were you okay yesterday?" asked a young man.

"It's okay! What can it do?"

"Also, if something happened you wouldn't be here today. ”

The young man was also there yesterday, but he was not caught by the red armband, but he saw Ye Lin walking with those red armbands from a distance, and thought that Ye Lin was also caught by the red armbands.

Of course, young people think more, originally the people in Pigeon City thought that Ye Lin's identity was not ordinary, yesterday Ye Lin was arrested by the red armband, and today he came here again, which is even more revealing.

"Little comrade, do you collect food tickets here?"

"I'm sorry, but I don't charge for the food ticket. ”

Yes, Ye Lin collects any other tickets here, but he doesn't charge vegetable tickets, because vegetable tickets are not worth anything at all, and there is no difference between buying tomatoes for five cents and a pound and Chinese cabbage for one penny and two pounds, and you have to use a pound of vegetable tickets to buy a pound.

In this case, who will spend money to buy food tickets, besides, there is a ration of food, but there is basically no ration of food, and everyone has a lot of food tickets every month, and it can be said that more than 90% of the people can't use it up.

"Do you charge the meat ticket?"

"Meat tickets are charged, and a pound of meat tickets is four cents and five cents. ”

"I have two pounds. ”

After Ye Lin paid the money and put away the meat ticket, the young man next to him came over and said, "Yes! ”

"What can you do, just two catties of meat tickets. ”

If before today, if he received a meat ticket, Ye Lin's first thought was to keep it, but now, when he sees the meat ticket again, Ye Lin will treat it as a business, because he no longer needs a meat ticket.

"Bring me a chicken. ”

"Okay, a piece of five. ”

"Give you money. Ye Lin took the money and took a chicken from the box and handed it over.

"Little comrade, do you have a national food stamp here?"

"Yes, how much?"

"One hundred pounds. ”

"So much?"

"Well, no?"

"Yes, two cents and five pounds. ”

During this period of time, Ye Lin received not food stamps, of course, he also received a lot of other stamps, but there were not as many food stamps, especially the national food stamps, Ye Lin received about 500 catties.

"Yes. ”

Ye Lin took out a hundred catties of national food stamps, and the other party gave twenty-five yuan, one catty of national food stamps was two cents and two cents when it was collected, and it was sold for two cents and five cents, and one catty earned three cents, which didn't look like much, but one hundred catties was three yuan.

My mother worked hard for a month, and her salary was only forty-two yuan and five, and the average daily salary was less than one and a half yuan, and she easily earned three yuan, so what was there to dissatisfaction with.

So Ye Lin is very content.

"I want a carp. A middle-aged woman came over and pointed to the carp on the stall.

"A piece of five. ”

The middle-aged woman handed the money to Ye Lin, who put it away and took out a carp from the box below for the middle-aged woman.

"Little brother, find out, you have the best business here. ”

"Well, normal. Ye Lin nodded.

For Ye Lin, he didn't know what politeness was, and the young man was very helpless, but he also had to accept this reality, who let Ye Lin sell all the goods in demand.

Chickens, ducks, fish eggs and white noodles are the same, and these are in demand in any place, not to mention that this is just a pigeon market, even in the supply and marketing cooperatives, these are in short supply.

By about five o'clock in the afternoon, Ye Lin bought a total of more than 160 yuan, and the red armband came to pick it up once yesterday, which still has an impact here, of course, this more than 160 yuan is not counted as the purchase and sale of various tickets.

This more than 160 yuan is the money from selling the things in the space, and if you add all kinds of tickets, you have to calculate it at all, because there are tickets sold and tickets received, and a lot of such things happen in one afternoon.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Ye Lin said to the young man next to him: "The time is almost up, I'll go first." ”

"Okay, you go, I'll wait a while. ”

The young man also did a few orders of business this afternoon, but they were all small orders, but even so, the young man made at least two yuan in an afternoon, which is much better than going to work, no wonder he came to do this.

But earning is earning more, but doing this is not stable at work, although the work earns less, but the salary will be paid every month, and it is not the same to buy and sell, this is risky, in case of being caught by the red armband, all will be confiscated.

It is likely that the hard work of a few months will be gone, and the cost will be lost, and it is not easy to do anything anyway.
