Chapter 10: Rich

received a big ticket of 100 yuan, and Li Xian was very happy. After a rough weighing, the remaining walnut skins totaled forty catties, and he went on a business trip to buy five and one free, and he directly counted thirty catties.

After all, it is the last bag, which belongs to the out-and-out tail goods, and there is a lot of debris in it.

The girl didn't care about this, took the forty yuan she found, and made a request to go offline: "I can't carry it myself, you have to help me deliver it to the place." ”

"Yo, it depends on where you want to send it. Li Xian bundled the hundred-dollar bill with the other thick stacks, "It's too far for me to go." ”

The girl pointed to the east, "It's not far, do you know it?"

Li Xian knows this. A few days ago, while waiting for news from the newspaper, he was already almost all over the forestry bureau. The location of the dry rest house is located at the foot of Xiaowuhua Mountain on the east side of the Forestry Bureau, although the location is a bit off, but the height is still in the city.

The scenery over there is good, and it is surrounded by the Forest Engineering Hospital, which is a good place to retire. Many of the retired leaders of the Forestry Bureau are over there. Not only that, there is also a sanatorium inside the cadre rest house, and some elderly leaders of the provincial forest workers also come over from time to time.

On the way back to the Eight or Nine Forest Farm, I happened to pass by there. Li Xian was thinking about going home after work, so he agreed to catch up with the way.

Li Xian kindly invited the girl to take the car back, but in exchange for the latter's disgusted eyes: "No need, I'm here by bicycle." You go first, I'll follow. ”

Li Xian looked at the tricycle that was loyal and had completed the task perfectly, and sighed.

Sure enough, this grade is a little lower...... Moreover, how can the three wheels that clean up the river silt all year round and carry some rough work be clean?

With the unrestrained sound of three rounds of sudden bursts, it didn't take long for Li Xian to come to the Forestry Bureau's dry rest house.

Before I entered the compound, I saw paper money scattered at the door.

"Second brother...... This is a dead man, "Seeing this scene, Li Pi was a little stunned.

Li Xian is calm, the dry rest house is occupied by some elderly people, this kind of thing is not strange. Anyway, I was here to deliver something, and I wasn't going to go in, so I parked the car at the door of the dry rest house.

After a cigarette, the girl on the bicycle rushed over. Seeing Li Xian squatting on the edge of the three wheels and looking inside, he said, "Let's go, help me send it in." ”

Li Xian responded, put the small half bag of walnuts in the back bucket on the belt, told Li Pi to watch the car, and walked into the dry rest house with the girl.

After entering the courtyard, Li Xian saw the coffin parked inside. The mourning hall is very simple, although it is not sloppy, but it is still a little thin compared to the customs that have always been more valued. Inside the mourning hall, the coffin with vermilion paint wrapped in burrs was placed there. The coffin was not covered, presumably because the person was gone.

In the mourning hall, two middle-aged men were kneeling on the ground wearing heavy filial piety, sobbing in low voices.

"Girl...... This is?" Out of respect for the deceased, Li Xian bowed slightly when he walked through the mourning hall, and then asked the girl next to him.

It may be that Li Xian's behavior that is not quite in line with his outfit like a flower child won him two points of favor, and the girl's eyes warmed slightly, and said, "Grandpa Zhou, he died last night." None of them are local, and the mourning halls are all arranged by the dry rest center. Lung cancer...... It's been a painful time. ”

"Oh," Li Xian looked at the photo in front of the mourning hall and didn't say anything. But I found the reason why such a girl bought dozens of catties of walnut skin.

In the activity room of the dry rest house, more than a dozen old people were sitting there silently, looking at the deserted mourning hall in the courtyard with sad faces, chatting without a mouthful.

"Lao Zhou, this can be regarded as a relief, living is a sin. When Li Xian entered the door, he heard a neat old man with silver hair combing.

"Yes, it's a blessing to be gone. It is...... Hey, it was too sudden. Such a good-faced person, he didn't have time to prepare anything. ”

At this time, a voice like a bell said: "Prepare a bird, everything will rest with a kick on both legs, what can you do if the scenery is not beautiful?"

"Old Wu, you can't say that. Anyway, if I burp one day, I don't want people to burn it. An old man on crutches retorted.

"Old Han, your thinking is not materialistic!"

"You are materialistic, you go to the refining furnace by yourself. ”

"Grandpa Wu, Grandpa Han, why are you arguing again?" Seeing the two old men, I didn't give an inch, and the girl who brought Li Xian took two steps into the door, squinted her eyes and persuaded with a smile: "Okay, you can rest and see what I bought for you?"

Seeing her come in, a group of old men gathered around.

Li Xian put the walnut skin on the ground, and a group of old men saw the walnut skin in the bag and sighed again and again, saying that it was the first time they had seen such a neat and exquisite walnut skin. praised again and again "Zhiye, this child has a heart".

Looking at a group of old men pointing at the walnut skin, a girl named Zhiye, who didn't know what her surname was, walked to an old man's side, "Grandpa, you will divide this thing when you go back, you can soak in water and drink wine, the forest work newspaper said that this thing is anti-cancer." ”

The old man who had been sitting on a wicker chair looked like an old farmer, patted his granddaughter's hand, looked at Li Xian, who was covered in sweat and dust, and said, "This thing is not cheap now, is it?"

Wang Zhiye shook her head, "It's not much, it's only sixty for such a big bag." ”

The old man was stunned for a moment, then shook his head. He stared at Li Xian, "You sold this thing?"

Li Xian, who was already planning to leave, nodded.

The old man stood up and looked at the walnut skins in the bag, "There is almost no cost for such a bag of things. Young man, you've made a lot of money. ”

Faced with the old man's inquiry, Li Xian touched his nose. I said in my heart, you old man, why are you talking so much nonsense?

I thought so in my heart, but seeing that the girl named Zhiye was the face of one of his biggest customers in the past few springs, Li Xian smiled slightly and replied, "It's okay." ”

Then he turned and went out the door, leaving the old man holding back the second half of his words, and his chest was stuffy.

Back on the tricycle, Li Pi couldn't wait.

"Second brother, how much money have we made in the past few days?"

Every day, this kid has to ask again.

Li Xian closed the car door, took out the money from several pockets, and counted them together. As he continued to accumulate numbers, the excitement on Li Pi's face on the side became stronger.

"Hey, phew!"

There were too many gross tickets, and it was hard to lose, Li Xian spat and twisted the remaining pile, and finally came up with a number.

"Six thousand two hundred and three! Fourth, let's get rich!"
