The agricultural reclamation company and the agricultural cooperatives are not the same system, but there is no difference between the two in terms of commerce, and the company's stores are also called supply and marketing cooperatives.

The area of the 42nd Company's shop is not large, and it is not as large as two-thirds of the area of the supply and marketing cooperatives of the Jiangwei Brigade, because the shops inside are piled up and look very messy because of the area.

Two salespeople, a man and a woman, are chatting.

The man is in his forties, and the woman is in her twenties.

These two people Wan Feng still know.

The man is even the manager of the 42nd Supply and Marketing Cooperative, his surname is Tang, and everyone calls him Manager Tang.

The woman is the daughter of the company's maintenance company commander, surnamed Liu, as for what it is called, Wan Feng forgot.

Manager Tang has six daughters in his family, and he has no sons, and he is a tragic figure.

In the eighty-five years, the county foreign trade did not know which country to buy the mountain red, a dime and a half a catty.

At that time, this purchase price was enough to make people fall into a state of madness, and all of a sudden everyone went crazy, and the worthless mountain red that used to be all over the mountains became fragrant and sweet.

But there are standards for people's acquisitions, and small ones don't need to.

The mountains here are red, because there are children picking disasters all year round, and the reason for the disaster is very small, and the largest is the size of a finger.

These crazy people paid attention to Maozi.

There is a long strip of Jiangxin Island on the Maozi side of the center between Sijitun and Dalinzi, which is an uninhabited island.

Because there is no one in trouble all year round, the size of the mountain red is a little unusual, and the size is not inferior to the hawthorn.

When fishermen fishing on the river went to the island to pick, people's crazy eyes shifted to this island in the middle of the river.

In the later period, these people even had a record of going to the Maozi territory on the other side to pick them.

At this time, those boats fishing in the river started to trade ferrymen to pick mountain red on Jiangxin Island, and each person went back and forth for one dollar, and the thing was one dollar.

The boat is a wooden boat with a length of five or six meters, with two pulps on board, and people sit upside down on the boat to pull the pulp forward.

The people on the Longjiang River call this kind of boat very small, which means very small.

At that time, there were four of the four in the riverside, and there were 42 in the big forest, and at this time, all of them did not fish, and they transported people back and forth to Jiangxin Island to pick mountain red.

At that time, fish cost two or three cents a pound, a dime, and a boat may not be able to earn ten or eight yuan a day's fish, so it is much easier to send people back and forth to make money.

Send two trips a day, even if it is a boat to send five people, it is ten yuan for a round trip, and it is twenty yuan for ten people.

Some people with great intentions sent three boats of people over, which was 30 yuan, which was much better than fishing.

So every day in those days, dozens of people gathered on the riverside to run back and forth in boats.

Manager Tang and his family also joined the army of picking red in the mountains, and the two of them went to Jiangxin Island to pick 100 catties of mountain red a day.

In addition to the boat fare of three yuan back and forth, there are still more than a dozen yuan left.

That's when tragedy struck.

From the riverside to Jiangxin Island, this half of the river has a nickname called Da Girlgou.

A few years ago, when a boatload of female intellectuals took a boat back to the youth point at night, they were detained in the river because of the overload, and seven of the nine people on board died.

Since then, there has been a taboo for those who fish in this popular boat, and no more than seven people can be fished on one boat.

But on this day, I don't know if the boat boss was obsessed with money, or the person on the boat lost his mind, there were exactly nine people on the boat for Manager Tang's two people.

When I went, something happened, and the boat overturned in the center of the tributary.

A boatload of nine people did not survive.

Manager Tang and his family died for money, leaving behind five or six daughters in the family.

Wan Feng's eyes were very strange when he looked at Manager Tang now, and the people of the Forty-second Company would not have thought that the two of them would go west together in a few years except him.

He thought to himself whether to remind them in the future.

Things may not necessarily develop like this, maybe they will avoid any changes when the time comes, after all, Wan Feng has seen the changes now, and many people he never knew have appeared.

Isn't that a change!

Let's wait until eighty-five years, it's still a few years away, and even if there is no change, it's not too late to remind them when the time comes.

Manager Tang and the girl surnamed Liu didn't take it seriously when they saw the two children coming in, and continued their story.

"Sister, what do you want to buy? ”

"I'm going to buy a new stationery box, a new book and a new pen. ”

Wan Feng was very happy to hear this request, his sister is asking to be motivated, but she doesn't even seem to have graduated from middle school!

Wan Fang picked out a tin stationery box that she thought looked the best on the face and bought a dozen new flowerskin pencils.

The pencil pen has small flowers and grasses, kittens and puppies, which is much better than the grass pencils used before.

"What else to buy?"

The next step is to buy food, Wan Fang's eyes looked at the non-staple food counter for a long time, as if the big brother had bought everything in the store.

What I didn't buy was bread and fruit hard candy.

Wan Fang glanced at it for a long time and pointed her finger at a can of apples.

The eldest brother came back this time to buy canned yellow peaches, not apples.

"Except for the canned peaches, take a bottle of the rest of the canned fruits. Wan Feng said to the people at the counter.

In fact, there are not many things, white pears in sugar water, grapes in sugar water, apples in sugar water, gone.

"Take two more boxes of luncheon meat, a bottle of canned pork. ”

Since you can't buy pork, wouldn't it be okay for us to buy canned pork?

Luncheon meat is a flat tin box with a key-like thing on it, and the lid can be opened by turning it around and twisting it.

These things cost nearly six bucks in total.

Wan Fang hugged her notebooks and stationery boxes.

Wan Feng put the canned luncheon meat in his pocket and walked out of the store with four bottles of canned food, in fact, the things were not finished yet, he still wanted to buy a few bottles of beer for Lao Tzu, he saw that there was beer for sale in the store.

But they couldn't hold so many things without their pockets.

Come back and buy a few more beers.

When I got home, my mother was squatting in front of the door and squeezing fish, and the fish she caught was filled with a whole pot.

"Your dad has fished all his life and doesn't catch as many fish as your brother and you in one morning, he's such a waste. "My mother probably forgot that she was going to beat my sister just now, and her face was already happy.

This is the upper outline of the line, and the fish and waste wood are still linked.

glanced at the canned food in Wan Feng's arms, but didn't say anything.

Wan Feng was listening to the tape recorder in the house, but the sound of the tape recorder was a little slow and very unpleasant.

This is a phenomenon that only occurs when the battery is dead.

Wan Feng put down the canned food and took a cloth bag and came to the supply and marketing cooperatives again.

Bought six bottles of beer and an electrical socket plus a few meters of wire.

When I got home, I pulled down the switch, took a wire out of the switch, connected it to the socket, and finally nailed the socket to the wall.

Close the knife switch, plug in the power cord of the tape recorder, and listen to the tape recorder again this time without batteries.
