In the afternoon, Yang Qiu, Yang Dong and Gangzi, the three of them drove three four-wheeled vehicles and came to the door of Luo Yinshan's house in a majestic manner.

The four wheels are turned off and lined up, which is quite magnificent.

At this time, the grain had been beaten and packed into bags, and there were a dozen or so villagers standing in the courtyard, waiting to be loaded.

Yang Dong and Gangzi took out the scales, pulled out a few bags, and weighed them, each bag weighed about the same, around 160 catties.

Yang Qiu nodded, paid Luo Yinshan 1,250 yuan, and signaled that it was ready to be loaded.

The crowd rushed up, and in a short time fifty sacks of grain were loaded in three carts.

In fact, these grains can be easily pulled away on two or four wheels.

Yang Qiu insisted on "three armies at the same time", but in fact, he wanted to prove that he could compete with that boy Sanbiaozi.

What kind of character is Tong San Biaozi, that is the number of characters in Shicheng County.

But at this time, Yang Qiu does have the strength to compete with one of them.

In this way, three four-wheeled units, loaded with grain, drove to the town grain factory in a hurry.

…………

When he arrived at the gate of the big grain factory, Yang Qiu saw a long queue of grain sellers at the door.

When everyone saw this awesome four-wheeled man, their faces were full of surprise.

"This isn't the Tong family's convoy, where did the grain dealers come from?"

"Isn't this the Yang family brothers of Baiyin Village, the third and fourth!"

"It's amazing, it's a fortune. ”

“……”

For a time, the two brothers of the Yang family became the focus of everyone's discussion.

Everyone admired their evaluation.

Yang Qiu felt great relief in his heart, and at this moment he felt that he was the most dazzling star in the town.

The team slowly drove into the grain factory and stopped in front of the laboratory.

"Come out and test the water for me!"

Yang Qiu shouted at the top of his voice.

A short time later, a man with glasses came out of the laboratory.

Yang Qiu knew him, and this person was "Xiao Cheng"

"Xiao Cheng" is the name of Director Wu for this person, Lao Wu can be called, Yang Qiu can not be called.

"Director Cheng, the grain is here, and I am tired of asking the brothers in the laboratory to test the water for me......"

Director Cheng knew that Yang Qiu had an unusual relationship with Boss Wu, and he was the No. 2 grain seller in the town, so he was also very polite at the moment, and was busy leading Yang Qiu and others into his office to drink tea, unloading the car and inspecting the grain, and other manual work, all of which were taken care of by the workers.

Yang Qiu sat on the sofa, took a sip of tea, and asked:

"Director Cheng, why don't you see Director Wu today?"

"The factory director has gone to distribute grain, and it will take about a week to come back? But you don't have to worry, the factory director has already arranged everything before leaving, you just have to wait for the letter. ”

Director Cheng is also a cheerful person, and without waiting for Yang Qiu to ask, he said everything he wanted to know.

Yang Qiu had a bottom in his heart, so he didn't ask too much.

So the conversation changed and found a topic that didn't matter, and everyone in the room chatted together.

The tea was still warm, so someone came to tell me that the results of the water measurement came out, and the grain quality of these trucks of grain was very good, and eighteen water samples were measured.

The price of each bag is 30 yuan, a total of 1500 yuan.

Yang Qiu laughed.

It turned out that the bud rice building of Luo Yinshan's house, although the top cover was a little damaged, but the terrain of his house was high, and the bud rice building was at the tuyere, so the ventilation was very good, and the seeds were dry.

Yang Qiu, who is so clever and clever, is a natural good grain seller.

This resale, Yang Qiu earned more than 200 yuan.

But he knew that the result of eighteen water children was the result of the "green light" given by the laboratory technician.

Before leaving, Director Wu instructed everyone to give Yang Qiu the first order of business and make a good start.

In this way, Yang Qiu has the motivation to collect more good food for himself.

The truth that horses have no night grass and no fertilizer is simple and practical.

Yang Qiu was also shrewd, so he hurriedly went to the store to buy a cigarette and a box of drinks, and put them on the table in the laboratory.

Seeing this, the two young laboratory technicians half-pushed and half-accepted the things on the spot, and cordially sent Yang Qiu out of the gate of the grain factory.

…………

This single transaction gave Yang Qiu integrity.

Sitting at home, there is no need to queue up to sell grain in person, the price given is higher than that given by the grain factory, and the grain farmers from Shimiao Village to Baiyin Village all took the initiative to go to Yang Qiu to sell grain.

Yang Qiu's business is getting more and more prosperous, and he is so busy every day that he hardly cares about eating.

In the past two months, Yang Qiu was unstoppable and made a lot of money.

When it came to the end of the year, the grain factory closed its pants.

Yang Qiu gave Yang Dong and Gangzi 1,000 yuan each, gave them an annual leave, and went to work after the eighth day of the next lunar month.

Yang Dong and Gangzi took the pile of money and dropped their jaws in shock.

They couldn't believe their eyes, they didn't arrive in two months, and they made a net profit of a thousand dollars.

This is almost the income that farmers can earn in a year's hard work!

On the last day of 1989, I remember it snowing.

The Yang family is always at the eldest brother Yang Chun's house for the New Year's Eve.

The Yang family is a big family, adults and children, gathered together, the lights are colorful, and it is very lively.

Yang Dong led many children, ran to the yard and set off the firecrackers, and everyone sat around a big kang table, eating vegetables and drinking wine.

The children took turns singing songs, and Hachiro, who was more than two months old, also blinked his big black eyes and looked at his brothers and sisters stupidly and sang loudly.

What a year, the last year of reunion.

…………

The business of a grain dealer is busy all year round.

Two months before the year, one month after the year.

Yang Qiu is bold and careful, and has excellent vision, in the past three months, he has collected all the good food in his region and made a lot of money.

In the blink of an eye, it was April of the 1990 Gregorian calendar.

In the northeast in April, the willows are plucked, the rivers are civilized, and the hens begin to lay eggs.

"Open the river of fish, eggs of chickens. ”

It is a delicacy that has been passed down by mouth in the Tohoku region.

After the beginning of spring, Yang Qiu had no food to harvest, he had completely quit gambling, and stayed at home with his wife and children all day long.

…………

This day, Yang Qiu will never forget.

April 20th.

The 25th day of the third month of the lunar calendar.

Gu Yu......

Tomorrow is Xiaofang's birthday, Yang Qiu greeted the Yang family and made an appointment to come to his house tomorrow to celebrate Xiaofang's birthday.

When I came to my eldest brother Yang Chun's house, I saw that my eldest brother was pouring something out of the warehouse.

When he approached, Yang Qiu saw Yang Chun standing in the courtyard, holding a slender black cloth pocket in his right hand, and holding a feather duster in his left hand, squinting his eyes, and knocking back and forth on the cloth pocket with the duster.

Countless flying dust came out of the cloth pocket, and with the help of the wind fanned by the feather duster, it flew and swirled in the air.

"Ahem, ahem...... Autumn is coming, stay away, the ash is too big. ”

Yang Chun didn't wait for Yang Qiu to come closer, and hurriedly reminded.

"Oh, big brother, your brother and sister have a birthday tomorrow, go to my house in the afternoon to get together, let's have an afternoon meal together. ”

Yang Qiu stopped and said with a smile.

"Oh, okay, I just took two fish to stew, and the fish in season are fat, so delicious!"

Yang Chun was wrapped in flying dust, turned his face sideways, and said.

"Ah, big brother...... Are you going fishing?"

Yang Qiu suddenly realized that he was very familiar with this black pocket, and only then did he remember that this was the "equipment" of the eldest brother's fishing.

Yang Chun is an expert fisherman, and every year in the spring, he will go to the reservoir to fish almost frantically.

Even when he was plowing and farming, he often farmed during the day and fished at night.

He can always catch a lot of fish, and then early in the morning, take them to Jisheng Town to sell.

"Well, I'll go again in the afternoon and fish for the night!"

Yang Chun put the black pocket on the ground, squatted down, and began to fill the pocket with fishing tools.

Yang Qiu suddenly became interested, anyway, he was staying at home, so it was better to go out for a walk.

"Big brother, I'll go with you, let's be companions. ”

Yang Qiu said.

Yang Chun hesitated for a moment and said:

"Where are you going, it's cold in the second half of the night, and you're sinned......"

"It's okay, it's not interesting at home, I'll just wear more clothes at night. ”

Yang Qiu said eagerly.

"Okay, come to my house at half past five in the afternoon, let's go to the Crescent Spring Reservoir. ”

Yang Chun lowered his head to sort out his tools and did not raise his eyes to look at Yang Qiu.

Yang Qiu saw that his eldest brother was busy, so he stopped making trouble, and excitedly went home to look for the big padded jacket he had taken off, happy like a child......

…………

When the two brothers came to the Crescent Spring Reservoir, it was already late and the sun was dark.

Yang Chun handed Yang Qiu a fishing rod, and Yang Qiu followed the example of his eldest brother, hooking and bait, looking like him.

When you catch a fish, time flies.

In the blink of an eye, it was late at night, and the moon hung like a hook in the western sky.

It is also strange to say that Yang Chun's hook frequently catches fish, but Yang Qiu's drifter floats motionless in the water......

"Don't play anymore, it's not fun, this fish also bullies novices, it's not interesting. ”

Yang Qiu was angry, threw down the fishing rod, straightened up, and stretched his waist......

With the help of the light of the headlamp, he raised his eyes to see that the crescent spring reservoir at night was surprisingly quiet.

Yang Chun seemed to have entered the realm of selflessness, ignoring Yang Qiu at all.

A cold wind blew......

Yang Qiu subconsciously wrapped his cotton clothes tightly.

Although the upper body is not cold, the lower body is too cold to stand.

It turned out that Yang Qiu was too excited and forgot to wear cotton pants, and at this moment, he was only wearing a pair of autumn pants in his single pants, how could he not be cold at midnight in early spring.

"Big brother, did you bring anything else to keep out the cold, I have frozen legs. ”

Yang Qiu stretched out his hand and tapped Yang Chun's back and said.

"Oh, bring it, there's a blanket in the black pocket, and a cotton coat, go get it yourself." ”

Yang Chun came back to his senses and replied.

When Yang Qiu heard this, he hurriedly walked to the black pocket.

"Woo ......" opened the zipper of the pocket.

Sure enough, a cotton coat was neatly stacked inside.

"It's very fashionable like this, with a checkered, I can't see that the eldest brother is very ......"

Yang Qiuwu muttered to himself......

Suddenly, Yang Qiu stopped talking as if he had been stuck in his throat by a fish bone.

I saw that his eyes widened, staring directly at the black pocket in front of him, and he couldn't stop trembling......

The sense of shock and despair, like two hammers of a thousand catties, violently slammed Yang Qiu's body and mind.

Yang Qiu only felt that it was difficult to breathe, and his body seemed to be smashed into the dirt by the sledgehammer.

A dazzling yellow light suddenly shone on Yang Qiu's face......

Yang Qiu suddenly woke up to the fact that this was the eldest brother Yang Chun, looking at him.

"Autumn ...... Akiko, what's wrong with you......"

Yang Chun asked nervously.

"It's okay, big brother, it's not easy to get your hands cold. ”

Yang Qiu replied calmly.

"Tell you to wear more clothes, you don't listen, or you go home first, it will be colder in the second half of the night, you little body, you can't bear it!"

Yang Chun's tone softened a lot and said.

"Good...... Big brother, I'll go first......"

After Yang Qiu finished speaking, he got up and left quickly.

Yang Qiu looked at the shadow he projected on the ground, and said in his heart:

"Hold on a little longer......"

"Hold on a little longer......"

"Gotta hold up a little longer......"

Finally, the light behind him disappeared......

Yang Chun finally stopped looking at himself.

"Puff ......"

Yang Qiu's feet were weak, he collapsed to the ground, covered his mouth with his hands, and cried.

Ji San'er died violently in front of his house, and he was never scared to cry.

Jin Wei's knife was on his neck, and he didn't cry.

There have been so many dangers in City B, and he has never cried.

But this time, Yang Qiu cried sadly and cried so much that he broke his bowels......

Why

Why you......

Why on that coat,

There are and those you have picked up,

Exactly the same button wow!!

The cold wind was blowing, Yang Qiu slowly got up, trembling, and walked towards the dark night of soul devouring......
