025. Presumptuous youth
The next day, as soon as the sky was bright, Guo Yongkun and the three left Qiantou Mountain together.
The brigade has a big phoenix that was purchased with public funds, and it is so angry that it will definitely kill the Ferrari and the like in the future, but unfortunately they can't drag three people, so they plan to hike to the commune first, and then try their luck to see if there is a passing big east wind.
Because many shops in Nanji are purchased in the morning.
It was late July, the hottest time of the year, even if there was only a trace of fish belly white on the horizon and the sun did not rise at all, but after walking down for two or three miles, I was still sweating.
At this time in previous years, the teams were always very busy, even at this point, the fields were full of people, because it was the season of early rice harvesting, and after harvesting early rice, they had to immediately plant the second crop of rice, which is commonly known as "double grabbing" in the south.
But this year is different, Guo Yongkun and the three of them walked all the way, and the figures they saw who came out of the morning work could be counted on one hand.
"Alas...... I don't know what kind of evil has been created, if the drought continues like this, the early rice will be defeated, and even the second crop rice will have to suffer, and it will not be planted!"
Walking on the dirt road in the countryside, looking at the scene in the fields on both sides, Zhao Dalong sighed.
"I said Brother Dalong, don't sigh. Li Youguang smiled and comforted, "Isn't it good that we can't be hungry now, and we still have meat to eat?"
"What if I finish eating?" Zhao Dalong was still worried.
"No, Hegui and a few of them are responsible for catching shrimp, don't they catch a few big pots every day, I heard them say that there are still a lot of them in the river, how can they be so easy to eat? Besides, don't those shrimp still have to lay cubs, a bunch of seeds, even Director Ye said that crayfish are easy to feed and have high fecundity, so don't worry about it." ”
When Li Youguang said this, he also looked at Guo Yongkun, as if he wanted to verify this crayfish expert, "Right, Brother Kun?"
But Guo Yongkun shook his head and said, "That's not right." ”
"Huh?"
Not to mention that Li Youguang looked confused, even Zhao Dalong was instantly alert and hurriedly asked, "Yongkun, what do you mean?"
After Guo Yongkun's eyes glanced at the two of them, he said: "Judging from the local crayfish stock, I will definitely not be able to eat it at present......
"Look, I'll just say don't worry about it. Li Youguang smiled instantly.
"Can I laugh when I'm done?"
"Oh, you go on, keep going ......"
"Although you can't finish eating, just like Xiaoguang said, it is still the peak breeding season for crayfish, but don't forget the weather, many animals have the habit of hibernating. ”
"This ......"
Guo Yongkun's words were finished, but Li Youguang suddenly couldn't laugh.
Zhao Dalong's expression was even more nervous, his heart was about to jump to his throat, and he hurriedly asked, "Yongkun, you mean that crayfish want to hibernate?"
"I don't really know if it hibernates, but I do know that once it gets cold, the crayfish will start burrowing and then burrow into the hole to protect themselves from the winter, and then ...... It's not easy to catch. ”
"Oh my God, this ...... What are you doing?!"
Zhao Dalong's black face instantly turned white with fright.
Even Li Youguang had a frightened expression on his face.
You must know that there is such a drought this year, they can still talk and laugh on weekdays, and they are completely supported by crayfish, if the crayfish are suddenly gone, they can't catch them......
As far as the rice tank at home bottoms out, I'm afraid I can't cry if I cry!
"Brother Kun, have you told the old branch secretary about this?"
Li Youguang was thinking at the moment, if this is the case, then he must hurry up and take precautions, otherwise he will have to wait until winter.
"Of course I said it, the commune knows it, but what's the use?"
Guo Yongkun spread his hands and said: "Now the whole commune is short of food, except for asking for help from above, there is almost no way, but the rations of tens of thousands of people are not a small amount, even if some are brought, God knows how long it can last, and whether it can fill everyone's stomachs." ”
"Oh my god!"
Li Youguang suddenly wailed, "Do you have to be hungry again, how can you live this day!"
This sad topic made the atmosphere a little heavy, and the three of them walked all the way to Sheep's Head Pass without saying a few words.
At this time, the sky is already bright, and in the Nanji trading market, many staff of supply and marketing cooperatives are busy opening shops, arranging for goods, or cleaning.
The three of them were lucky, and they happened to see a green-skinned liberation, which stopped outside the largest store in the market, which was a general store directly under the county supply and marketing cooperative.
Zhao Dalong didn't say a word, and walked over.
Several staff members were unloading the goods, a round-faced man with a white towel around his neck, and a pestle on the side, smoking a cigarette.
Undoubtedly the driver.
Otherwise, can you have this treatment?
Driver, a profession that is looked down upon by many people in the future, is the object of ordinary people's admiration these years, and he is respected wherever he goes, and he can always enjoy some special treatment.
"Big brother, are you going back to the county?"
Whether they know each other or not, they are all the masses of the people, and they must unite and love each other and help each other, and this is the distinctive characteristic of the old era.
And if you can help, people will basically not refuse.
Who hasn't learned the spirit of thunder yet?
Two years ago, when I was an unsung hero, it was called madness, the rice in the field was ripe, and you were going to cut it the next day, but the next day you carried a sickle and went over to take a look, and you were directly confused.
Why?
Because the rice has already been cut, and it is even tied, it is waiting to be picked up.
"Three of you?"
The round-faced eldest brother looked at it, and looked embarrassed: "That can't sit down, at most you can take two of you." ”
"Squeeze. ”
Zhao Dalong said, pulling Li Youguang in front of him, "Big brother, look, just this kid, he is not thin, and he is not empty." ”
"It's not good to squeeze, you have to squeeze into my hand to affect the operation, and you are responsible for something?"
Zhao Dalong naturally didn't dare to take this responsibility, but fortunately, Guo Yongkun said at the right time: "It's okay big brother, I'll just stand in the fight." ”
"If you're not afraid of the wind, that's fine. ”
In this big summer, he is still afraid of this, Guo Yongkun naturally doesn't care, and even Li Youguang has booked his "next seat".
However, it took a while to unload the goods, and there happened to be a breakfast shop next to it, and the three of them didn't eat, so they planned to have an early morning.
Breakfast in this era is not rich, for example, this shop, with its bright state-run signboard, has only three varieties - steamed buns, fried dough sticks and clear soup noodles.
But the price is really cheap, and the real material is full.
There are two kinds of steamed bread, divided into fine powder and standard powder, one or two of fine powder is sold for four cents, and two taels of standard powder are sold for five cents and a half cent.
It also provides weighing services, and children are not bullied.
The fritters are all standard powder, five cents a piece, half a double.
Although the clear soup noodles are called clear soup, the soup is actually made of bones, plus two taels of snow-white noodles, and a handful of green green onions, which makes people drool.
Don't underestimate the bones, the price is cheap, as long as 1 mao 5 a catty, but under normal circumstances, it is not possible, and a purchase certificate issued by the orthopedic doctor of the hospital is required, which is the same as pork liver, which is a nutritious dish.
Therefore, the price of clear soup noodles is naturally more expensive, and a bowl costs eight cents.
This time, Li Youguang rushed to have a treat, Guo Yongkun would not be polite to him, just by virtue of his relationship with Xiaoguang...... Right.
Besides, he has a fart money, doesn't it cost money to pick up girls?
After Zhao Dalong pulled for a while, he couldn't twist it, so he had to give up. After all, he is not like Li Youguang, one person eats enough for the whole family and is not hungry, and there is a large family to feed.
But it was not for nothing, he gave out food stamps.
It can even be said that without him, Guo Yongkun and Li Youguang would not be able to eat this meal even if they were rich.
In the planned economy, everything has to be billed, and you have to pay the bills before you can eat.
The reason why there is this rule is because many people have money and no tickets.
That's not going to work.
And Zhao Dalong is just the opposite, as the third-in-command of the brigade, he can always get some fine food stamps, but unfortunately there is no money.
One person, a bowl of clear soup noodles, plus a fritter, a total of six cents, Li Youguang did not feel distressed when he ate it.
In his words, money, money, money, gone, earn again!
As always, he is heartless and heartless, Guo Yongkun occasionally sends a few dollars to his home, and he has been in the countryside for almost three years, and he has not sent a penny.
After the three of them finished eating, the goods over there were almost unloaded, and while there was still some time, they went into the store again.
Originally, I was going to go to the county to buy it, but seeing that there were a lot of things here, I simply didn't bother to delay the time.
I bought a pound of white sugar, a pound of brown sugar, a bag of fruit cakes, and two bags of salt and golden dates - these are all small heads, adding up to less than four yuan. The real big head is two tubes of malt cream, plus four bottles of canned oranges.
In the last checkout, eighteen yuan and five cents and seven, and Zhao Fumin gave eighteen yuan and six, which is not accurate.
About ten kilometers from the commune to the county, Guo Yongkun and Li Youguang stood in the car body, holding the back edge of the front of the car with their hands, facing the wind with their heads held high, and their hair was blown like the buddy who likes to gnaw people in the King of Fighters.
"Brother Kun, believe it or not, I can pee in the wind?"
"Believe in your sister...... I couldn't hold it back, so I said directly, go to the back of the car to solve it, anyway, there are few hairy people on the road. ”
Careful thinking was directly broken by Guo Yongkun, Li Youguang was not embarrassed, hehe smiled, walked slowly to the back of the car, and was untying his trouser belt, when a column of water suddenly erupted next to him.
"Haha...... Brother Kun, it turns out that you can't help it!"
"I've been waiting for you for a long time, you kid can really bear it. The main noodle soup is generous and delicious. ”
"Let's see who pees far!"
"Afraid of you?"
The two guys who were not ashamed and ashamed stood at the back of the car like this and competed, and they were indeed not discovered by anyone, and they never thought that they would usher in a headwind......
"Hahahaha......"
Guo Yongkun felt that his mouth was also a little wet, and after spitting, he looked to the side, and then quickly escaped, Li Youguang, who almost didn't laugh and cramped at the moment, was not depressed, and also laughed......
It's nice to be young!
