At the railway station in Bangye County, Li Xian was already sweating profusely.

The train station is a small bungalow with oil drums burning inside, and a narrow passage is separated by several railings, and the conductor sits on the high ticket gate, and there is an old attendant with a long bamboo pole wrapped in a red cloth around his head.

In the long queue, Li Xianzheng was puzzled by the role of this bamboo pole, and was stabbed in the back by the bamboo pole.

"Hey, what's the matter? It's your turn, take two steps forward. ”

The bamboo pole was like Zhao Zilong's spear in the old servant's hand, and immediately after stabbing Li Xian, it hit the chest of a woman behind him.

"It's not you, what are you squeezing forward?"

That's what you do!

Unable to complain about this terrible service attitude, Li Xian endured his anger and bought a ticket with Chen Shulin.

The long platform diluted the people in the small bungalow, but when he got on the train, Li Xian felt the real sourness.

In the crowded carriage, the smell of cigarette bag oil, stinky feet, sweat and heavy urine in the toilet were mixed together, which made Li Xian, who had just gotten on the train, smoke his back directly.

There weren't many people in the cramped carriage, but large bags of luggage were piled up everywhere, and the luggage racks were full. Under the seats, there is simply no place to stay in the aisle.

Piles of people gathered together, some held green onions and dried tofu and drank noisily, some held children and peed directly on the ground, and some simply took mahjong to get together and start drying, attracting a group of people around.

The flight attendant took a broom and swept the melon seed skin and garbage on the ground, and scolded the woman who peed on the child. Outside the window, vendors hold baskets of tea, eggs, and dried tofu rolls and bang on the windows to sell.

After getting used to the smell in the car, Li Xian found that Chen Shulin had gone to find a seat as if nothing had happened. Obviously, Chen Shulin has long been accustomed to this kind of scene that Li Xian has never seen before.

Asking the two old men who were barefoot entrenched in their seats to leave, Chen Shulin exhaled.

"Damn, there's no one on this train in winter!"

But you have to sit even if you don't have one.

The green train stopped as soon as it saw the station, and it took more than seven hours to walk and rest. It wasn't until it was dark outside, and Li Xian, who didn't know how many naps, finally heard the shouts of the flight attendants beside him.

"The people who slept were in good spirits, and they arrived at the station in Harbin! ”

Only then did Li Xian wake up Chen Shulin, who was already snoring from sleep, took his bag, got up, walked to the aisle, and waited in line to get off the bus.

Seeing the scenery outside through the car window, Li Xian had mixed feelings. More than 20 years later, the bungalow and the small second floor in front of the pit station have been completely abandoned and dilapidated.

But at this time, they still flickered their lights, and occasionally they could be seen gathering inside, eating dinner with the roar of the train.

"Ahead is the Harbin ...... that I have been absent from for many years"

Thinking about the short college career he spent in this city, Li Xian couldn't help but hum.

Only he knows that this has been a long time, and it is really many years.

……

That night, Li Xian and Chen Shulin spent the night at the state-run hotel next to the station. Early the next morning, the two took a blue-skinned three-wheeled taxi to the Tholong Street Farmers' Market.

Standing at the entrance of Tholong Street, which was covered with big signs on a white background with red letters written on a white background, "No smoking, fines for violators", "Great Cadres and Four Modernizations, Revitalization of China", "Do a good job in food hygiene, refuse to enter from the mouth", Li Xian was shocked.

It's all about people!

It is said to be a farmers' market, but in fact, sheds are erected on both sides of a street, one next to the other, stretching for more than two miles. At this time, it was only nine o'clock in the morning, and the aisle less than three meters wide was already overcrowded.

The shouting and bargaining of merchants came and went, and it was as lively as a temple fair.

Parting the crowd like a carp crossing the river, Li Xian and Chen Shulin squeezed in. It didn't take long to find a grocery stall with toilet paper wholesale.

When the stall owner wearing a blue smock and a white sleeve that had changed color finished dealing with a purchase, Li Xian came up with a smile.

"Hello eldest sister, I am the director of Sina Paper of Bangye Forestry Bureau, I see that you have a lot of types of toilet paper, and we are also making toilet paper ...... now."

Originally, the stall owner saw that Li Xian was dressed quite well, with a three-point smile on his face. But as soon as he heard that Li Xian was here to sell toilet paper, his face changed directly.

"What brand is Sina Premium? I haven't heard of it. We only sell three brands: Prancing Horse, Dahui and Guosheng. We don't sell miscellaneous brands of paper. ”

After speaking, he ignored Li Xian and beckoned the patron who entered the shed.

was splashed with a basin of cold water in his face, and Li Xian slowed down for a while before he recovered.

On the side, Chen Shulin did not forget to gloat: "I said factory director, this is the provincial capital, do you think Sina Superior is now known throughout the country?"

Li Xian glared at him, and he didn't get out of the shed, just watching the stall owner sell there. Several of the customers are from Twin Cities and seem to be regular customers. In a few minutes, more than 1,500 packs of Dahui toilet paper were ordered at this booth.

Looking at the extremely unnatural pink, the color that seemed to have been sunburned for a summer, and the thick paper like the skin of a sixty-year-old lady, Li Xian felt quite a dog in his heart.

"Sister, how did you get this toilet paper?" he pulled the stall owner again.

"Seven cents and five days, fifty mention! What, little brother, do you want to go back to study and study on the hour?" Seeing that Li Xian hadn't left yet, the stall owner was stimulated.

Looking at the mention of Dahui paper, which was only ten volumes, Li Xian smiled and shook his head.

The heart said that just this paper Lao Tzu can make with his eyes closed!

Learn your grandma's legs!

With Chen Shulin, Li Xian immediately walked out of the shed.

In the following time, the two of them walked through several sheds that wholesaled rolling paper, but the situation was similar to the first one. Hearing that Li Xian was just the director of a small paper mill under the Forestry Bureau, everyone lost interest. A stall owner with many customers in the shed also scolded a few words, and Chen Shulin almost didn't have anything to do with him.

Standing in the aisle, crowded by the crowd like floating leaves, Li Xian pinched his waist and sighed as he looked at the long Thocage Street.

"Fuck, there's no way to go on like this!"

On the side, Chen Shulin also snorted: "It's not a shame, it's a shame that you don't allow dogs to be raised, otherwise everyone would have let the dogs bite just now." ”

Li Xian glared at him, "When you're out of the house, you don't know how to converge and converge your temper?"

"How can this be converged? It's been like this for a lifetime, what's the love!"

Remembering that he was kicked out just now, Chen Shulin, who was getting up, pushed away the person who stepped on his foot next to him, "Grass, are you blind?"

"Hey, who are you scolding, old **?" The person who was pushed by him was anxious, and turned around and grabbed his fist. Just as he was about to swing down, he saw Li Xian who was blocking in front of Chen Shulin.

"Hey, it's you?!"

The man's fist froze.

Li Xian was also stunned, and looked the man up and down, happy.

"Coincidentally, why are you here?"
