Chapter 11: Eighteen Monsters

Section 1: Self-deprecation is not interesting

When passing by Haikou, Ma Linxi heard about the eighteen strange things in Hainan, but it was intermittent and never made up. He wrote down what he knew in detail in his notebook, which was not only an understanding of local customs and folk conditions, but also a capital to go back to brag to everyone in the future, and it was also a reserve for talking about it.

In fact, the so-called weirdness of some things is just rare and weird. As the saying goes, see more and know more, and see less and strange. The world is originally very large, and a person's knowledge will inevitably be limited to his own knowledge level, and even judge the unknown world based on his personal knowledge and experience. There is often a certain curiosity and yearning for events that are not known.

The eighteen monsters they are curious about and passed on by word of mouth are actually lonely and ignorant of Hainan customs and habits. For the locals, it is a normal behavior that has been passed down from generation to generation, and it has long been a customary habit. If someone is overly curious, asking the locals will cause unpleasantness. Don't talk about others, Marlinsi has also encountered it.

When the seedling pond was tidied up that day, everyone went back, and Xu Feng asked Ma Linxi to stay and measure the area of the seedling pond board, so as to accurately calculate the amount of valley fall.

The amount of grain drop in hybrid rice seed production is about 10 times less than that of conventional rice, and it is difficult to grasp it if it is not accurately calculated to each plate surface of the seedling pond during sowing.

When they were squatting by the seedling pond to settle accounts, Ke Meiying just came back from work, and they chatted by the seedling pond.

When he was talking very speculatively, Ma Linxi said unabashedly: "Hey, I heard that you have eighteen monsters in Hainan, can you tell me about it?"

Hearing Ma Linxi ask this, Ke Meiying's face immediately lost a smile, and after a while, she slowly asked, "Are you so curious?"

Ma Linxi was a little embarrassed, and complained to himself in his heart, they had known each other for a short time, and they didn't have a deep friendship, so he really regretted it.

Of course, Marlinsi didn't think of going deeper, for example, some of the issues that might involve the customs and habits of ethnic minorities and national pride.

However, he didn't have that consciousness at that time, but he regretted it a little, which made people unhappy. Because, in a corner of his heart, Ma Linxi still cares about Ke Meiying's feelings very much.

Ma Linxi hurriedly said, "I'm sorry. I don't mean anything else, I really don't know. ”

"What is there to know. You see it every day. Something is wrong. Ke Meiying squinted and said.

This sentence was so hard that Ma Linxi didn't know what to say.

At this moment, Xu Feng shouted from the front of the field: "Ma Linxi! Director Ji is looking for you." ”

"I see. That's it. Marlinsi said yes. He turned his head to Ke Meiying beside him and said, "Go back." Director Ji has something to do. That's what made Marlinsi step down.

Although Ke Meiying was a little unhappy about this incident at the time, she was also a straightforward person, and she didn't take it to heart at all. Later, when they met again, she was happily together as if nothing had happened.

Section 2 Eighteen Monsters (I)

What kind of monster is the eighteen monsters, Ma Linxi left a big question mark in his mind.

There are many things, the more you want to forget them, the more you can't forget them, and you often think about them. For the current Ma Linxi, the Hainan Eighteen Monsters are such a thing.

Some time ago, I was busy. Now, the seeds have been planted in the ground, and the rice planting will not be until 30 days later, when the Spring Festival has passed. During this time, it is also a relatively idle time, except for a few days before and after the emergence of sparrows, poultry, there is nothing else important, Ma Linxi thought about it again.

Ma Linxi has the habit of writing a diary, and she also wants to learn more about the customs and folklore here, tell her family, and let them share this eye-opening happiness with him. Several times, I wanted to ask Wang Changsong about this, he has an active brain, likes to be well-read and memorized, and is much stronger than Ma Linxi in this regard.

"There are eighteen monsters in Hainan, do you know?" asked Ma Linxi.

"I heard Xing Yiyou say it, and he doesn't remember it all. How much do you know? It's just fine, I'm panicking. ”

"Okay. I'll tell you. Wang Changsong readily agreed.

Wang Changsong said that these eighteen strange things are: the girl sleeps outside the door, the hat is used as the pot lid, the pig is outside the cow, the barefoot cow wears shoes, the egg is bundled and sold, the bamboo tube is made of tobacco bags, the man urins and squats down, the woman urinates and stands to solve it, holding the child and falling in love, the three stones support the pot table, the pig offal is sold as meat, the house is slowly built, the old lady climbs the tree faster than the monkey, the three leeches make the trouser belt, the three mice make a sack, the three flies make a bowl of vegetables, the three mosquitoes can get off the food, and the train is not as fast as the car.

As soon as Wang Changsong said this, Ma Linxi understood why Ke Meiying was very disgusted with him asking the Eighteen Monsters that day.

There is indeed a place where mainlanders are prejudiced and look down on the locals. Later, after careful observation and consultation with others, Ma Linxi basically figured out the entire content of the "Eighteen Monsters of Hainan". Of course, the content of these eighteen monsters, even in Hainan, varies from region to region and from era to era. This is because things are always evolving and changing, and the development of human society has never been static.

The girl slept outside the door.

This is a traditional custom of the local Li and other ethnic minorities. Not only in the mountainous areas of Hainan Island, but also in the countryside of Leizhou Peninsula and Zhanjiang across the sea, this custom used to exist. When the girls reach the age of fifteen or sixteen, they move to a shelter a little further from home.

The so-called "hut" is a simple hut made of wooden sticks and straw.

In the mountains, most of them are on the slopes of the few people, and there is a simple bed inside, and there is no home. It is in this quiet place that the girls fall in love with their sweethearts. Sometimes, they take turns talking to other boys, and it's just a private date for the two of them. If you take a step back and empathize, if you don't talk about it, how can you understand each other? This custom in Hainan has a long history. The same thing, in different places, will have different criteria for judgment and corresponding interpretation. In Marinsi's hometown, the house where women live alone is generally widows' homes, and if there are more men who go, people will privately give it a name, called "flirtatious shed". You know.

However, Hainan's "shed" is a place where young boys and girls are emotionally rippling, playing a role in looking forward to the appearance of their sweethearts, becoming a tryst place for provoking men, and a private home that can let young men and women release their passion and nurture love.

Some of the girls in this village also have "shelters", which are scattered next to the sugarcane fields on both sides of the Sand River. At first, Marlinsi thought it was a vigil for the sugar cane watchers, because there was only a simple bed in it, not even a futon. Later, I learned that it was the girls' "shed". One can imagine what will happen to the boys and girls who are in love with each other in this small world far away from the villages? The leaders of the breeding team were afraid that something would happen, so they also set an iron discipline for them, and no one was allowed to go to the "shant" to play in the "shed" for any reason or excuse at any time.

Of course, whoever really has the heart probably doesn't have the guts.

The hat is used as the lid of the pot.

Hainan Island is a tropical region with two seasons of rain and drought a year. During the rainy season from May to September, it rains every three or five places, sometimes almost every day, or even two or three thundershowers. If it is in the dry season, it rarely rains, but the direct sunlight is always hot and unpleasant. As a result, each person has a large hat, which is used for shelter from the wind and rain, but also for shade from the sun.

The pot on the stove of every household is almost no different from the hat, the only thing that can be distinguished more clearly is that it is buckled upside down on the top of the lid of the pot, and there is a small buckle, which can be easily picked up with your fingers. This slight difference is not easy for mainlanders who have just arrived in Hainan to notice for a while, and they think that they are using the hat as a pot lid. In fact, it was his own carelessness that took his eyes away.

The cows are at home, the pigs are outside.

In Ma Linxi's hometown of northern Jiangsu, pigs are bred in captivity. There are decent pig houses, which are generally built together with the toilet pits, with thatched pit houses in the middle, and pigsties on both sides, and pigs will not be released for free-range. In Hainan, pigs are basically free-range. The so-called basic is that there is a pig pen, but the door is not sealed, and you can enter and exit freely. In the suburbs of Haikou, including Qionghai, Qiongzhong, Sanya and other county towns and market towns that they passed by on their way from Haikou to Ledong, there are free-range pigs foraging on the streets.

The seventh team of Tangfeng stationed in the village, there are pigs running all over the village, they mix with chickens, ducks and dogs all day long, live in harmony, safe and sound, go out and enter the house in a good way, in the field, in the field, in front of the house and behind the house, very freely. They don't have to worry about being fed like pigs in captivity, and each family will put a broken pot in a conspicuous place to feed them. Pigs don't eat alone, chickens and ducks often come over to share, and sometimes, hungry dogs will also intervene to eat a few bites. As for the pigs, at most, they hum and often don't lift their heads. Some chickens are timid, clucking and flapping their wings to escape, and after a while, the more daring ones will brazenly join in for a good meal.

As for the cattle, they are all raised outside in Malinxi's hometown, and they do not have a house that can live in winter and cool in summer like pigs, but they just build a temporary shed in winter to chat to shelter from the wind and rain. Here, however, some families keep their cattle at home.

People are barefoot, and cows wear shoes.

The locals have the habit of playing barefoot, and both men and women, young and old, seem to find it uncomfortable to wear shoes, which is a burden.

When the men worked, they were barefoot, and they wanted to be neat. But women, barefoot, Marlinsi is a little indecent from the perspective of his hometown. Especially the elderly women, who may have never worn shoes in their lives, look a little miserable as if their feet are covered with a layer of dead tree bark. The most surprising thing is that some little girls, whose feet are pink and delicate, have long been covered with deep crepe lines because they rarely wear shoes, and there are black dirt embedded in them that cannot be washed, and those feet that have been through vicissitudes are far from their actual young age. Even girls like Ke Meiying and He Ruiying, who love beauty, wear plastic sandals, but rarely wear socks, and there are cracks on their heels. This is in stark contrast to the young women in their hometown, who hardly wear shoes barefoot. is incompatible with the three-inch golden lotus of ancient women.

Of course, there are also climatic factors, Hainan Island often rains, and most of the rice is grown in this area, so it is more convenient for daily life and labor to be barefoot.

On the contrary, cows wear shoes. Cattle are the main animal power for cultivating fields and cultivating land in Hainan, and they are also the main driving force for pulling goods. In the village, almost every family has an ox cart with a hoarding, which is used to pull fertilizer, transport rice, go to the street to catch the market, and even take the ox cart to visit relatives, which is not only a labor tool, but also a means of transportation. The cattle that pull the cart are basically fat and strong cattle. Although the strength of the ox is less than that of the buffalo, the fur is smooth and shiny, the appearance is good, and the legs and feet are flexible, and the walk is fast. Although the buffalo has the advantage of great strength, its legs and feet are slow, its walking is slow, and its fur is rarely shiny. So, people choose oxen to pull carts and buffalo to pull plows. The cattle pull the cart is fast, but Hainan is full of gravel roads, easy to wear out the soles of the feet, but can not be like a horse to nail an iron palm to it, so, to the cattle who pull the cart to make a special can be put on the feet to walk in the leather palm sheath, in order to protect the soles of the feet, this has the so-called "people are barefoot, cattle wear shoes" so-called a strange.

Eggs are sold in bundles.

When I was in the market, there were some members from the mountains who liked to bundle eggs into bundles and sell them whole. There were five eggs in a bundle, and there were ten eggs in a bundle of eight. Most of the eggs are bundled with a special grass stem, as thick as a thread, and several twisted together, as strong as a rope. Bundles of eggs are sold on the ground, a bit like rock sugar gourds without handles. The mountain people used the bundled eggs to sell for money or to exchange for daily necessities. There is a saying in the mainland that eggs cannot be put in one basket, which means to prevent breaking. Hainan people bundle up eggs, which solves the problem of easy breakage, and also facilitates the safe storage of buyers.

Bamboo tubes are used as tobacco pouches.

Shared hookahs made of bamboo tubes can be found everywhere. In front of shops, stations and docks, next to stalls, and in homes, there are people who smoke this kind of bamboo hookah.

This form of hookah should be a copy of the hookah of the old era.

Most of the hookah smokers are squatting on the ground, or sitting at the door, or sitting around the table. Sometimes when you finish drawing, you can draw it for someone else. Sometimes it's a bag of cigarettes, and several people take turns taking a puff or two. The feeling of deliciousness can be clearly seen from the expression of enjoyment that swallows the clouds and spits out the mist.

The chimney is made of an arm-thick bamboo tube, which opens the knuckle at the bottom, and makes a gap in about one-third of the lower part, inserting a finger-thick and slender pipe, which is about 45 degrees angle to the bamboo tube, and is used to load tobacco. Half a tube of water is filled into a thick bamboo tube, and the height is just above the cigarette holder on stilts, so as not to overflow. The principle is that by absorbing the air in the bamboo tube, the lit tobacco flavor is filtered through the cigarette holder and the water in the bamboo tube after increasing the pressure, and the smoke in the gaseous state will produce bubbles when it is filtered in the water, so it makes a sound.

The tobacco is brown and pressed into cubes, and the smoker only needs to gently break a small piece, slowly twist and loosen, and then put it on without hurry, and not a single piece of tobacco will fall. The mouth is tightly attached to the mouth of the bamboo tube so that it cannot leak, and then light the tobacco and inhale leisurely. While smoking, the water in the chimney "coo, coo", and the water-filtered smoke is inhaled into the mouth.

Smoking this kind of cigarette requires considerable skill, to hold back a lot of energy, but not to inhale violently, the weight is all in the control of mind and luck, that intoxication, that selflessness, that enjoyment, is really fluttering like a fairy. It not only opened the eyes of mainlanders like Ma Linxi, but also made those addicted gentlemen addicted to smoking.

Out of curiosity, Ma Linxi also smoked a few times, either because he didn't have enough strength to smoke the cigarette, or he used too much force to suck all the filtered water in the bamboo tube into his mouth.

In many public places, there are also public bamboo pipes at the door, which really opened their eyes, who can say that this method of smoking is not strange?

Section 3 Eighteen Monsters (Medium)

The man peed and squatted down.

This is also a strange phenomenon discovered by the mainland breeding team, and on several occasions, Ma Linxi also bumped into it.

Not all men in Hainan urinate like this. Most of the men who have this habit are ethnic minorities who have lived in the mountains for a long time. As for why they squatted down, no one could say why. It wasn't until today, thirty or forty years later, that Marlinsi stumbled upon a piece of news in the newspaper that a man squatting to urinate is good for urination and is a health care method. God knows, did they see the man squatting and urinating for this purpose?

Incredibly, in contrast to men squatting down to relieve themselves, women sometimes urinate standing up.

Woman pee standing unraveled.

According to thousands of years of Chinese tradition, women always squat to relieve their hands. Even today, in the 21st century, society has opened up and people's ideas have become trendy, and in some cities in the mainland, there are urinals in public toilets where women can urinate standing up. However, such a urinal also has a special design, which is in line with the characteristics of women's organs, convenient and hygienic, despite this, there are very few actual users. However, at the end of the seventies of the last century, Ma Linxi really bumped into the scene of Hainan women standing and urinating.

As soon as I set foot on the magical land of Hainan, someone mentioned the saying that women urinate and stand up to solve the strange phenomenon here. Privately, everyone is curious.

According to eyewitnesses, not all women will stand for relief, only those elderly women from closed mountainous areas will do it occasionally, usually in crowded places. If that's the case, isn't it wetting the crotch of the pants? It's okay, these women who live in the depths of the mountains on their anniversaries wear homespun tube skirts that they weave themselves, tied around their waists like a bottomless pocket. Hainan has no winter all year round, and the heat is unbearable, so these women do not wear underwear. When no one is looking, the skirt is flipped up, squatting down and it's over. Even if there are people, they don't seem to care, the corners, under the trees, and in the sugar cane fields are all places that can be solved. In the bazaar, people come and go, often crowded, and when they can't hold it back, they stand upright on the spot, and let the urine flow down their legs silently.

They went to the market and saw some women standing still in the market of Banpo commune, with burdens on their shoulders. Curious, Wang Changsong touched Ma Linxi and whispered quietly, "Look ahead." ”

Ma Linxi looked over and saw an elderly woman with her back to them, wrapped in a black headscarf and wearing a black tube skirt, with a pool of water stains under her feet that were slowly spreading. I thought to myself, no wonder the bazaar was smuggling, it turned out to be like this, it was the work of women.

After the gathering, there were no more people, and there were stalls of tide maps on the ground. At this point, Marlinsi was relieved.

Fall in love with a child.

In ethnic minority areas such as the Li nationality, it is said that there is a long-standing custom of trial marriage. In the local traditional customs, if a woman does not have the ability to have children, no matter how beautiful she looks, it is also the greatest unfilial piety. As a result, the idea of having more sons and more blessings and passing on the family to the next generation is more deeply rooted than that of our Han people. It was under the influence of this concept that the custom of girls going to the hut to spend the night at the age of thirteen or fourteen came into being. Unmarried cohabitation, husband and children, and then officially hold a wedding ceremony.

Hainan has a hot climate, and all living things develop quickly and have a short life cycle. The same is true for people, girls develop relatively earlier than mainlanders, and girls who are thirteen or fourteen years old are about the same as sixteen or seventeen years old in the mainland.

Three stones as a pot table.

In their hometown of northern Jiangsu in Marinxi, the pot stove is a very particular place, and for a slightly more prosperous family, the pot stove is built in a kitchen separate from the residence.

In Hainan, the vast majority of rural households they saw were cooking, sleeping, and storing grain in the same room, without even symbolic shelter. In the depths of the impoverished mountains, there are people who don't even build pots and stoves, and iron pots are set on three stones, and wood and branches are burned, and the whole house is blackened.

Pork offal is sold as meat.

In Ma Linxi's hometown, pork is sold separately from pork belly, liver, intestines, lungs and other internal organs, sewerage, and pig blood. When I go home to eat, I also burn the stomach and intestines separately, and it is rare for people to buy two at the same time, and it is rare to hear of mixed cooking.

But here it is different, pig heads, pig sewer and offal are all mixed with meat and sold. If you cut two catties of pork, then you have to chop a piece of pig's head, a piece of pig's claw, or a pig's tail, a piece of intestines, and a piece of pig's blood. If you want to buy a whole pig's head, or a pork belly, I'm sorry, the shopkeeper doesn't do it, this is people's rules, but also customs, no one will change.

The house was built slowly.

Banpo is very special to build a house here, unlike Ma Linxi's hometown to build a house, first prepare enough materials, bricks, sand, lime, wood, etc.

As for other people's procedures, it's the opposite of theirs. Anyway, get the foundation of the house first, and then build it slowly. Some people have a roof foundation that has nothing but stones or bricks, and maybe the money to buy other materials is not ready. Some people's houses, the wall is half a person high, just stop there, this stop, it seems that it is not ten days and a half months, a year and a half, because the walls are covered with moss. Some people's houses have all the beams up, but there are only two or three purlins missing, and they are temporarily resting. It is common to see lime-burning earthen kilns outside the village. It is to choose a vacant land, a layer of wood, a layer of limestone, and then a layer of wood, pile it like a haystack, light a fire, from the bottom to the top slowly without open flames, a month or two to burn a kiln of lime, not in a hurry at all. Some three- and two-room houses, like some major national projects, cannot be won without three or five years. This kind of practice of buying some building materials when you have money and building a little when you have time is a bit like saving money and saving money in the bank, doing what you can. Actually, there's nothing wrong with that.

Section 4 Eighteen Monsters (II)

The old lady climbs trees faster than monkeys.

This strange thing is really the unique style of Hainan Island. Now, with the development of the tourism industry, this stunt has become one of the featured items of Hainan tours.

Marlinsi: At the time, it seemed a little incredible. Most coconut trees are as tall as several floors, and the trunks are generally as thick as two people hugging each other, and at the roots, a man can't hug them. It is really difficult for people to climb up and pick coconuts. But for the locals, it's a piece of cake and a common thing. Seven or eight-year-old children, both men and women, climb trees and pick coconuts. Many old ladies, despite their hunched walks, can climb up the tree, and their hands and feet are as nimble as monkeys, and in the blink of an eye, they reach the top of the tree. Of course, this kung fu is also practiced day after day and year after year for a lifetime, and it is with you for life from childhood.

Three leeches as trouser belts.

In Hainan Island's Gouhe Gangli, rice seedling fields, and even in many low-lying wetlands, there are countless leeches.

Not only are these leeches incredibly numerous, but they are also very large. On the weeds and in the shallow water, there are habitats and hiding places for leeches. In the calm ditch, if there is a slight movement, there will be leeches floating out of nowhere. Sometimes, when the cattle grazing in the ditch come ashore, they have a patch on their legs, and it takes a lot of effort for the herders to remove them, and the legs are often stained with blood.

People must not be able to withstand their bites. When people go to work in deep water fields, they have to wear special waterproof socks. These leeches are as thick as a thumb, and if they are straightened by holding their heads and tails, they are more than a foot long, and the length of the three leeches connected must be more than the length of the trouser belt.

Three rats and a sack.

Some of the rats on Hainan Island can be regarded as real rats. They are huge, numerous, and have fierce teeth.

The current dormitory in Marlinsi is a former warehouse, with concrete floors and stone walls, and is said to be very sturdy. However, there are rat holes everywhere, some of which are as thick as the mouth of a bowl.

Every night, the dormitory becomes a world of rats, scurrying around on the beams and running around on the ground, like a lively rat family party. Even during the day, rats often swagger around the dormitory. Rats with heads and tails more than a foot long can often be bumped into. In the warehouses where the grain is stacked, some of the rats are the size of kittens. In the sugarcane fields, ditches, and rice fields, rats are often seen.

The most eye-opening thing is that in front of the stalls selling rat poison in the market, the rats who have been made into specimens are like kittens and dogs.

It is an exaggeration to say that it is three rats and a sack. The size and number of rats in Hainan are truly worthy of the name.

Three flies in a bowl of dishes.

There are many flies and big flies, which are rarely seen on the mainland, especially in the meat and seafood stalls in the bazaars, and in some small restaurants that are not very hygienic, it is simply a world of flies. And they're all fat, green-headed flies. It's disgusting to watch, but there's nothing I can do. Many drugs do not seem to have a special effect on them either. Perhaps, they are too numerous and large, and they are often culled, and the live mouth left by luck from the drug has enhanced their resistance to pesticides in the breeding from generation to generation, and the fly killers have a limited effect on them, so they don't need to lose weight or diet at all, what they need is to eat and drink violently, reproduce quickly, and increase their bodies in the process of evolution.

Three mosquitoes are also a dish.

This means that mosquitoes are big, numerous, and ruthless. The kind of flower mosquito, which is an inch long, flies like a helicopter, and the sound of "woo woo woo" will not only kill people, but also disturb you from resting.

People with skin allergies, if they are stung, will immediately swell up like a wasp sting, itchy and painful, several times more hateful than flies. Sleep with a mosquito net at night, so you can be safe and sound.

The most hateful thing is to urinate at night, and next to the grass with a dark moon and high wind, it is a gathering place for flowers and mosquitoes. In addition, flower mosquitoes have a specific recognition function for human body odor. It's similar to human beings "smelling and knowing women". If you can't pee for a long time, and you don't get it right, it's going to sneak up on you. In case you are stung by it, you lie on the bed and itch, it is to relieve the pain, but in the middle of the night, three scratches and two scratches, the itching is temporarily stopped, but the child is excited, and it is strange that you are not tossed half to death.

Trains are not as fast as cars.

Judging from the national map, the railways on Hainan Island are a small inch long. The actual distance is less than 100 kilometers from Sanya to Huangliu. In addition to freight trains, there are also two passenger green trains on the other side. In the morning, it will drive from Huangliu to Sanya, and in the afternoon, it will drive from Sanya to the Yellow Sea. Almost all the villages and market towns along the line have stops.

The feeling to Ma Linxi is that it has just slowed down for a few minutes, and it is a small station. Some of the small stations are two old houses and two cement signs with the station name and direction.

The railway line runs more or less parallel to the inner side of the coastline along the road line, so sitting in a car feels like a race against a train. Run, run, and the train fell right behind the ass of the car. This is because buses don't have as many stops as trains.

Section 5 Favorite Fascination

Just as Ma Linxi and Wang Changsong were talking very happily, Xing Yiyou walked towards them from the threshing floor with a big grin, and said loudly as he walked: "What's the matter, look at you so happy." ”

"Yo, big hair. Why do you have time to come to us?" Ma Linxi smiled at Xing Yiyou.

"It's okay, play with the waves. Xing Yiyou slammed a big hand on Wang Changsong's shoulder.

"Oops. It hurts me to death. Da Mao is really useless, and he picks a soft nose to pinch it. Wang Changsong hurriedly stepped back.

"Why, the chiefs aren't there?" asked Marinthi.

"In. One no less. Xing Yiyou said.

"Then why are you fooling?" asked Wang Changsong.

"Business. Xing Yiyou deliberately pretended to be mysterious.

"Bullshit. Why? Isn't there a chance to meet Accountant Gao?" Wang Changsong said, with some ill intentions.

Accountant Gao is the liaison of the Longhai team, after graduating from high school last year, the brigade adjusted the accounting of the production team, she took the position of the original accountant, and the person went to the brigade as an accounting counselor. It is said that Gao also has a social background, and when he left the school, he took office directly.

Gao Accountant's name is Gao Xiaojing, and people are often called positions. She is very good-looking and popular, so no one calls her by name. Xing Yiyou came to Hainan last year, when there were only a few people in the breeding team, and they rented Gao Xiaojing's house, although they did not eat in the same pot, they lived under the same roof for half a year, and it was inevitable that there would be a trace of friendship. In everyone's opinion, it is normal for him to have frequent contact with Gao Xiaojing. Xing is also in charge of the external liaison affairs of the breeding team, nominally in their technical service group, but in fact rarely does the work of the group, serving the three leaders all day long, a bit like a secretary, this is his official job. Gao Xiaojing is said to have gone to Ledong County to visit relatives in the past few days, otherwise, they will always have nothing to do together. Whoever sees it is a little greedy. He is a veteran player, and he is next to the leader of the breeding team, and the leader trusts him.

"No, it's true. Xing Yiyou said seriously.

"Oh. Malinsi looked at him suspiciously.

"I'm going to Banpo tomorrow to print. See what you're going to print?" Xing Yiyou said, pulling out his notebook.

The printing that Xing Yiyou said is to print on sweatshirts, vests, and towels. The vast majority of people who come to Hainan Island to breed are the first time, and perhaps the last. In this way, everyone wants to bring something souvenir back, and even though it has only been a short time and the day of return is early, everyone still feels that time flies quickly and it is necessary to prepare early. Otherwise, the month before leaving is a busy season, so how can you have the opportunity to prepare.

Printing on undershirts, vests, towels, and pillowcases is the most popular and fashionable.

The way of printing and the style are also very particular. Some are printed on the front of undershirts, vests, some on the chest, some on the end of a towel, and some on the entire pillowcase. The word is also big and small, the most exquisite, is with Hainan scenery woodcut pattern color, enamel jar, bowl, basin on the lacquer words, that is more expensive.

As soon as they set foot on Hainan Island, Ma Linxi they saw that there were old breeders wearing printed undershirts, these people are often very public, they see Ma Linxi they are greedy, and also hope that they will wear such undershirts as soon as possible, it is best to have red and blue colors, both Hainan scenery, and printed with "Hainan Island souvenir", or the words of the breeding team of a certain province, so much scenery.

This day has finally come.

"How do you do it?" asked Wang Changsong.

"Print a sweatshirt or vest first. Only two pieces are allowed to be printed per person. Xing Yiyou said.

"Can't you print more?" asked Marinthi. He wanted to print a few more pieces and go back so he could give them away.

"No, I can't. Director Ji said. Only two pieces are allowed. Xing Yiyou said.

"Shall we pay for it ourselves?" asked Wang Changsong.

"No, it doesn't. Unless you go to the half-slope print yourself. What size do you wear?" Xing Yiyou asked.

Ma Linxi has seen the printing on Banpo Street, and there are two small printing shops. Because there are too many breeding team members pouring into the island at once, the business is very good, and they can't be busy at all, and they don't do three or five small businesses, they are all contacted by the breeding team, unless you have more than ten pieces, then you have to wait for ten days and a half months. What's more, undershirts and vests are often out of stock, and the supply and marketing cooperatives do not sell them. Only when someone goes to Sanya in the future and asks them to buy it on their behalf. At the moment, the only thing left is to meet the requirements of the breeding team.

"I'll print two undershirts. Wang Changsong said.

"How many centimeters to wear. Xing Yiyou didn't raise his head, his eyes staring at the notebook.

"One hundred and five, one hundred and one. Wang Changsong paused: "Bring one for my brother." ”

"What about you? Xing Yiyou turned to Ma Linxi.

"Two vests, both 90 centimeters. Malinsi said. I thought to myself, bring one for the third brother.

"Hey, do you want to print towels and tea jars?" asked Wang Changsong.

"It's beautiful to think about. These two pieces are not insured. The undershirt has to be bought in Sanya. Xing Yiyou said.

"When will it be printed?" asked Marinthi.

"At least for a month, I don't know. Xing Yiyou closed the notebook and walked away without looking back.
