Volume 1 The Market Chapter 3 The opening is auspicious
The heat is unbearable, the sun is three o'clock, and it is still hanging high, little brother, has already begun to live downstairs. Xiao Wu was sweating profusely and fanning his fan, and Shunzi was silently sorting out the seasonings.
"Brother Shunzi, do you think I want my brother to do this, can there be anyone? It's too early, it's so hot. Xiao Wu complained.
Junko said as she sorted it out, "Didn't you say that you should go to the park to deliver it? There are a lot of people over there, and it's still hot when you take it." ”
Li Xiang walked out of the unit door with a few bottles of beer in one hand and a meat box in the other: "No one eats by ourselves, the money is spent, let's finish the fire, drink it ourselves." After a while, the smell came out, and I cried greedily for the child next door. ”
Li Xiang dragged a small stool casually, crossed Erlang's legs, smoked a cigarette, looked at the empty green space downstairs outside, and thought silently in his heart.
In 04 years, the economy began to continue to rise, barbecue and other night markets began to slowly become popular, a little more popular area, the consumption capacity of the stalls is even higher than that of the big hotel, who can go to the restaurant every day, but in the era of skewers and five cents, idlers have nothing to eat a few skewers casually, drink a beer and chat.
The rise of the development zone has brought a large number of floating population, part-time workers and businessmen, all kinds of strange and mixed. Eat and drink,
It's noisy and noisy.
"This is the best of times!" Li Xiang thought silently.
"Taste it, it's all baked, eat it, or the charcoal will be wasted." Junko handed over a handful of small skewers.
"Half of it is extinguished, leave a little fire, let's slowly roast the flavor, eat and drink first, don't worry. Li Xiang comforted.
Xiao Wu ate the mutton skewers in his hand and muttered: "Yes, you haven't lost anything, with my pocket money, Brother Shunzi's strength, if you don't work, you will command." ”
"As long as you talk a lot, if you see that I am uncomfortable, stay away from me, you take a skewer and go to the outdoor pool in the park to eat, this will be no one else's stall, swimming consumes a lot, and you will be hungry after a while." Li Xiang commanded. "Junko, you just roast slowly, I'll go to the next door card room to take a look. ”
There is a card room at the bottom of the community, and usually the nearby idlers and uncles and aunts will gather together to play mahjong and play cards. Wang Laoliu, the owner of the card room, also made a statement nearby, and when he was young, he fought in a group and killed the opposite one, and squatted for 20 years. After coming out, he also mixed with some idle people in society, and shouted the sixth master when he met. I usually open a card room as a cover, and occasionally organize a gambling game inside. Collect money and pump water. If you have nothing to do, you can stay in the card room, and you can play cards when you lack people, and you are polite to everyone, and you have a harmless smiling tiger on your face.
Li Xiang took a bottle of cold beer, pinched a handful of skewers, and walked into the card room: "Sixth Master, are you busy?"
The sixth sat at the table next to the door, smoking a cigarette with his chest open, and squinting at the cards in the room. Hearing the voice, he turned his head and said with a smile, "Yo, college students are also coming to play two?"
"Come on, my skills are not good, our brother has a few barbecues, and I will send you something to eat." Li Xiang put the beer on the table and handed over the mutton skewers.
The sixth child took it with a smile, "Okay, you kid has filial piety, and you still think about me, it's better than Xiao Wu'er's little cub, what's the matter here, mention your sixth master." ”
The sixth man drank cold beer while nibbling on skewers: "You light a cigarette and smoke it yourself, it's okay for you little brothers to come and play." The neighborhood is familiar and familiar. ”
"Haha, you usually take care of us, and I want to trouble you now. Li Xiang laughed and continued: "I don't see that you have any cards to play, I want to see if you have any skewers, let's send some grilled." ”
"What's the matter, boy, I don't have any pocket money. Your uncle's big boss, if you don't go to the point, you have come to attack my idea. The sixth master asked with a smile after hearing this.
"No, Xiao Wu'er is not going to school anymore, and our brothers want to do some small business of their own. You can't always rely on your hometown!" Li Xiang handed over a cigarette to the sixth child.
The sixth man took a sip: "Okay, it's a big fart, come on." Slowly spit it out, squinting at Li Xiang through the smoke and continuing: "If you don't have any money, follow me, give me a part-time job, Xiao Wu won't go to school, you let him come over to help me serve the card game, I can't lose him, I like this little fat man." ”
"Okay, then I'll thank you for Xiao Wu'er first, and I'll ask him when I get back. We sold out of barbecue here, the guests ate it, and we cleaned it up for you, making sure not to mess with you. Li Xiang said happily.
"It's okay, you can do whatever you want, it's all your own people, it's not a problem. The sixth master said righteously: "Get out, go in and ask yourself, I won't give you Zhang Luo, you kid is in a hurry to go back, don't forget to ask Xiao Wu'er, if you can't find a job, come to me to help." ”
Li Xiang nodded in agreement, and shouted into the house: "Is there any barbecue, five cents and a bunch of !!"
"Is there chicken wings or not, the old lady is starving. ”
"There is something, there is meat, but there is no vegetarian, when the meat is top, you are full, and you are guaranteed to win a lot of money. There are also cold beers and cold drinks!" Li Xiang borrowed the donkey's shout from the slope.
"Come on, come on, bring me ten skewers. "Roast me two chicken wings!" "Roast twenty skewers, and two cold beers," replied the card player in the room.......
The sixth laughed and scolded: "You kid is running away from me, right, you sold all the special drinks!"
Li Xiang laughed with him: "Oh, I don't know, sixth master, look at what I did." "The sixth master has a drink, who wants me to hand it to you! Just give the drink money to the sixth master." Just barbecue for a while, I'll write it down and bring it to you later. Li Xiang took a few bottles of beer and drinks from the freezer and distributed them to everyone.
"Monkey cub is you, hurry up and go to you, I'll take care of it myself. The sixth smiled and waved at Li Xiang.
Li Xiang took the recorded list and walked back to the door of the garage in the courtyard. Xiaowujia is an old community, a family on the ground, said to be a garage, people who don't have a car use it as a storage room, it's very large. Junzi's barbecue grill is set up at the door of the garage, and there is a display cabinet that the second brother got from the unit in the garage, and drinks are placed. There are various drinks, beer, charcoal, and skewers against the wall. It's like a small storeroom.
Shunzi has already opened, and the people walking the baby in the community, enjoying the coolness, and coming over when they smell it. This will not yet arrive at the restaurant, everyone will eat a few strings of tooth sacrifices, or buy chicken wings for the child to satisfy their hunger.
"Okay, Junko, you're moving quite fast, look at this, this is an order from the card room outside. You hold on to the roast. If this list is completed, we will be able to deliver supper over there, and it will be enough for us to do it. Li Xiang said to Junko while helping to flip.
Junko looked at the list: "Okay, no problem, I'll go get the meat." If it's not bad today, let's move the freezer to the garage tomorrow and save trouble. ”
"Okay, you go first, I'll roast, go and come back quickly, you come back, I'll go to the pool and call Xiao Wu, let him come back quickly to help." ”
Opposite the community is a dirt mountain, is a public park, no charge, the area is not small, there is a dirt mountain behind the park, many people exercise in the morning every day. The main attraction is a large fountain and an outdoor pool. Many people run to play every summer, and spending money to swim in the city in this era is still a luxury for a far suburban county.
As soon as Li Xiang walked into the park, he saw a lot of people surrounded by chaos.
Walking in, Xiao Wu stood in the middle, and there were many people around.
"Magic show, magic show, watch it for free!" Xiao Wu shouted loudly: "Come, beauty, I'll teach you a move, cooperate!" "Cross your hands, yes, do it with me, everyone can do it, cross it, put your index finger against your nose." Xiao Wu stinking pretended: "Come, look at me, go you, I can open it." What's the matter, beauty, you can't open it, it's too tight to take you, come, I'll teach you again!"
The people below were laughing together, and Xiao Wu took the hand of the little beauty and took advantage of it. Li Xiang looked at Xiao Wu helplessly. This younger brother is a quasi-rich second generation, especially fun, not tall, more than 180 pounds, and has been learning traditional Chinese wrestling, weightlifting, and sprinting. That's really a flexible fat man, everything that plays, there is no one who is not proficient, as soon as he learns it, he can do classic little magic tricks in one hand, and he will perform everywhere to flirt with his sister by the way.
"Xiao Wu, let's go, something's wrong. Li Xiang shouted.
"Yo, my brother is here, I'm going to show you a big change today, and I finally have an assistant, I just called a few beauties to help, and I'm very shy. Xiao Wu said as he pulled Li Xiang over.
Li Xiang frowned and said, "Let's go, there's a job, don't have a convulsion." ”
Xiao Wu didn't listen: "Brother has finally got so many people, you squat, squat behind me, cooperate, I will publicize it." ”
Li Xiang didn't refuse when he heard this, and still squatted aside.
Xiao Wu looked at it and was happy in his heart: "I'm about to start magic, let's explain a few words to you first, we are not only a magic family, we are also a barbecue family." Xiao Wu pointed to the building across the road: "Do you see the opposite side, as soon as you enter the door, our buddy's own barbecue stall, I want to eat it, it's okay if you don't buy it, we can also send it to the park for everyone to eat!"
"You don't change into a living person, wait!" someone in the crowd coaxed.
"Right away, don't worry, everyone come to swim, you can stop by my house to have a look, order some food, tell me what time it will be delivered, I will be on time, and the goods will be paid on delivery." Xiao Wu continued to finish speaking: "The big change of living people will start immediately!"
Everyone looked at Xiao Wu in focus. Xiao Wu turned around, pointed at Li Xiang, learned an authentic Jinshi accent, and said: "Rank, look here, are you a living person with stool, and you are a little constipated!"
Before Li Xiang could react, Xiao Wu had already rushed away from the laughing crowd and ran in the direction of home. "Rub, I was fooled by this kid. ”
