Chapter 73 Scrap Yard
Walking to the street, you looked at the time, it was only ten o'clock in the morning, this point for lunch was too early, and I had to wait until the afternoon to get the shuttle bus back.
Youyou remembered that in the novel, the protagonist would go to the scrap collection station to find treasures, so he said to his grandmother: "Grandma, let's go to the county scrap collection station to have a look." ”
Grandma asked: "What are you doing there, this is not a Zhang Ji, there is your Shengnan concubine there." ”
"Don't I have a lot of scrap copper here, let's go sell it, and by the way, let's go in and have a look." ”
Finding a place where no one was around, Yoyo took out a bicycle and a bag of scrap copper. Someone inquired about the location of the acquisition station, and the two of them rode there.
The county's waste collection station in the northwest corner of the city is a large courtyard of more than 30 acres, which is classified and piled up with various waste products, and some of them are covered with canvas sheds.
There are three stores next to the door of the courtyard, and there is a desk and a big pound outside the store. Two staff members, one sitting behind a desk and one weighing.
There are not many people who come here to hand in the scrap, and it looks like it should be the residents of the county seat, and they sell the scrap at home.
The two stood aside and waited for the others to weigh in. The staff saw that grandma was struggling to move, so they came over to help. Hearing that my grandmother said it was scrap copper, I asked curiously, "You received it?"
"My family opened a consignment point, and I brought it to the city today. ”
After the weigh, the staff opened a note and handed it to grandma, "Old comrade, you can use the car to push things into the warehouse, and you have to go inside to get the money." ”
The staff helped grandma push the bicycle into the back warehouse. The warehouse is so big, a row of more than a dozen Chase rooms, the roof is made of steel beams, there are more than ten meters. The double doors were wide enough to drive into a car.
It is full of water-sensitive and more valuable things, waste paper, scrap copper, hair and other items are sorted and placed. Unlike in the commune, there is the most waste paper here, and more than half of the warehouse is piled up.
Yoyo ran to the waste paper pile, and there were stacks of books thrown everywhere, not to mention that there were really many books and thread-bound books. It seems that the time travel novel is not all apocryphal.
When Grandma saw Youyou like that, she guessed her thoughts and said to the staff: "Comrade, it's not easy for me to open a consignment point, you have a lot of waste newspapers here, can I pick some back to be used as wrapping paper? ”
"Okay, go pick and remember, don't mess around. The staff walked out.
There were only two of them left in the warehouse, and Yoyo immediately began to act, and when he saw all kinds of famous books, he collected them in the space, line-bound books, old books with cloth wrappers, and all kinds of calligraphy and paintings, whether they were masterpieces or not, were also included. Not to mention, after a while, I found more than a dozen "Fu books".
There are so many books here, and there are a lot of them in the leisurely space, and there is no shortage in the storeroom. But Yoyo didn't dare to accept it, and it would be bad if someone found out.
Grandma picked up a lot of neatly stacked newspapers, put them in a sack, and walked out shouting. Yoyo originally wanted to see the scrap copper, but it was too late.
According to the staff's instructions, in a window next to it, grandma handed in the slip and received the money from the sale of scrap copper.
When I arrived at the door, my grandmother poured out the newspaper and weighed it on the pound, more than forty pounds. A pound of waste paper costs two cents, only more than eight cents.
"Auntie, there are a lot of new books in it, why are they waste?"
"Those are all reactionary books picked out by the libraries of various units, old and new. Auntie enthusiastically explained to her.
When you listen to it, stars pop out of your eyes, reactionary books are good, they are basically famous books, and you have to find a way to buy these books.
Grandma said happily: "It's still so cheap, I only bought more than 30 pieces of wrapping paper for one dollar, and it is not as strong as the newspaper." ”
"Then you'll buy it when you're out of it. "The staff helped my grandmother to load the sacks.
Grandma tied the sack to the back seat of the car, handed them two dollars, and rode away without waiting for them to refuse.
