When the migrant workers first arrived, there were many things that were missing, and the things in the consignment points were sold quickly, especially the goods such as porcelain jars, flashlights, towels, cigarettes, and matches.

Although Yoyo smuggled out some of the mall, he didn't dare to be too obvious at first. In four or five days, grandma had to go to the commune supply and marketing cooperatives to buy goods.

Yoyo took the opportunity to encourage grandpa not to work in the vegetable garden and help grandma sell goods at home. "The embankment will be completed in two months, so you can be so busy every day, and one day your grandma can't be busy, I will help at home for a day or two. ”

Youyou thought to herself, won't you be so busy every day in the future. You have to be a treasure connoisseur for me, how can I set sail without your old Taobao business.

My uncle sent a donkey cart to the team, and my grandmother handed over two hundred eggs and some scrap products, and a cart full of goods.

The food station is south of Zhangji Bazaar, and the bus stop is next to the food station. The eggs in the food station are collected by the catty, at 0.75 yuan per catty. 12-13 pounds of chai eggs, 5 cents per pound, a pound is up to 0.65 yuan, a pound of eggs can earn 0.10 yuan, and the profit of collecting eggs has really reached 15%.

The people in Shimiao Village heard about it and began to come to Grandma's consignment point. Now the goods are the national unified price, of course, where is convenient to go, the stone temple is far away from the Xiangyang consignment store, almost five miles.

What's more, grandma buys many types of waste products, and the price is reasonable. In order to attract people to take out the old things at home, grandma collects a variety of things, and the rarer the things, the better the price.

Many old people are tossing and looking for things from the past at home, some copper locks and copper incense burners have been brought over, and grandma will always give more money after weighing the catty. Since my grandmother opened a sales agency, the old man who pushed the cart has never been here.

The transaction volume of the big village of more than 2,000 people is still considerable, and in three or four days, Grandma Kung Fu collected more than 2,000 eggs, which were sold at a high price of 200 yuan per kilogram in her own mall.

The brown sugar rationed by the supply and marketing cooperatives was bought up in two days. In this era, sugar stamps were implemented in the cities, and the distribution points were distributed according to the population in the rural areas.

Whoever has a child will say hello to the consignment point in advance, and deliberately leave two catties after the arrival. The rest of the limited supply, each person is only allowed to buy half a catty, until sold out. Yoyo took ten catties and twenty catties from the mall, and kept the goods uninterrupted.

Nylon socks and liberation shoes, these two things are bought by migrant workers, and the rations are sold out quickly, so Yoyo ordered a batch in the mall.

Nylon socks are less than 0.5 yuan per pair in the mall, but they are rare in this era, and the national price is six or seven yuan, and they are often out of stock. The reason is that it is strong and wearable, and a pair of socks can be worn for a year or two.

Nowadays, most people wear shoes barefoot, and men work barefoot to save shoes and go barefoot on the ground. The socks I wear in winter are also made by myself, but when I go out, my relatives still wear double-bought foreign (cotton) socks. In order to wear them for more time, I bought new socks and took control of the soles first.

There are several jokes about foreign socks.

One: Wang Hai's socks can't be mentioned.

There is a person in the nearby Wanghai Village who often accompanies the villagers. On the second day of the Lunar New Year one year, I helped people accompany new customers, and I was so energetic to wear socks when I went out, I pulled the bottom of the socks and the help open. There is only this pair of socks at home, so I have no choice but to stuff the sock tube in my shoes and make do with it.

But my heart has not been stable, I am afraid that my socks will be exposed, and I ended up sitting in the position of a new guest. It is customary here that a new son-in-law must sit at the head of the first year when he goes to his father-in-law's house to show his respect for the newlyweds.

The person next to him saw it and proposed to change seats, and he absentmindedly replied: "The same, the same." After a while, he himself realized that he was wrong, and bowed his head in shame. Helplessly lifted the socks, and lifted the socks, and the people who had been paying attention to him couldn't help laughing when they saw it. Since then, "Wang Hai's socks can't be lifted" has become people's mantra.

Second: sesame oil, foreign socks

Nylon socks are loved by young women because of their bright color and non-fading, and some people deliberately pull their trouser legs high in order to show off their new socks.

This joke is widely circulated, saying that there is a guy who sells sesame oil, and when he sees a young woman pulling up her trouser leg and revealing a white and tender calf on her new socks, he patronizes it, and the cry in his mouth unconsciously becomes: "Sesame oil, foreign socks".

The nylon socks and liberation shoes ordered by Yoyo in the mall are the same as those of this era, but the quality is much better. The consignment point in Hantun Village sold good things, and it soon spread all over the country.

Grandma gave a pair of nylon socks to the adults and children of her uncle's family, saying that she took advantage of the opportunity to supply more and her family wore a pair, and the consignment point in the village may not supply it in the future.

My uncle and grandmother wanted to give money, but my grandmother refused, and announced grandly: "In the future, all the things used at home will be taken from our point, and we can't buy them elsewhere. ”

"In it, just do what our sister said, and come to the house to get it if you don't have any money to buy it. "Uncle and grandfather didn't treat their family as an outsider at all.

On Saturdays, the school is closed in the afternoon. In those days, the school week was a day and a half, Saturday afternoon and Sunday were a full day.

After breakfast, the second grandmother was busy preparing the warp. In the courtyard, two wooden stakes were planted one zhang apart, and a wooden stick was erected on top of it, and many "warp circles" (glass circles) were tied to the wooden sticks. The bottom of the wooden frame is full of threads, and a row of wooden pegs is wedged at each end next to the wooden frame, and the two rows of wooden pegs are one foot eight apart.

After lunch, my mother began to warp. First pull out the threads on the strings, wear a "warp loop" each, and then tie each thread into a bunch and tie it to the wooden peg at one end. Walking back and forth with the thread, when you reach the other end, you will hand the thread to the hanger and hang it on the wooden peg.

Mom and Osmanthus ran the warp back and forth, the second grandmother and Guixiang hung pegs at both ends, and had to look at the threads on the wind, and quickly poured out some on the more winds.

Yoyo and his younger brother followed closely to make trouble, hooking the threads hanging on the stake with their hands, pushing down the standing rope, or running back and forth behind his mother. After being chased away for a while, he came back, and spent the afternoon circling around the warp stalls.

Angry, my mother raised her hand and put it down several times, but it didn't really hit them. Youyou thought to herself, such an original skill performance is much more professional than in the farmhouse, so you can't open your eyes.

You sisters are really like Didi, you are still little kids, and they follow you back and forth to make trouble. Sister is busy videotaping, such a precious video material, the price of later generations is outrageously high.

The four of them were too busy to finish until it was almost dark. Plastering a black mark on the wooden peg counts as a hook, and then wraps the threads into a large ball of thread.
