The new book period can't be changed more, but if the rules of the new book are reached, I will cash it out as soon as possible, I hope you understand. )

Here is the text:

……

To be honest, collecting waste is not to make money by picking up wild things, but it is better to be safe and long-term.

The number of wild things that are clamped will decrease, and one day there will be no clips. Imagine that the forest area remains the same, but there are fewer wild animals, and the wild animals have been caught many times, and they become difficult to catch.

The last wild boar, it took Guo to get it for more than a month, what about the next one?

Two months, three months, or six months?

Moreover, if it continues to be clamped, it will seriously damage the food chain, causing more wild animals without natural predators, and then sharply decreasing, and eventually there will be more pests, and the food of the common people will be harmed......

Although these things happen very slowly, often in a cycle of several years, Guo Qu doesn't want to do it, although after doing it, if there is a large-scale pest disaster, no one knows that the cause is him, but he can't help it in his conscience.

Many people may not believe it, for example, there are many snakes in the countryside of Guizhou Province, and many people will catch snakes when they see them, either stew soup and eat them, or sell them, and some of them are used to make medicinal wine, and the final result is that there are more rats and the food at home cannot be put away.

Then, the common people went to buy rat poison to medicine the rats, and the dead rats were eaten by the snakes, and the snakes were also poisoned.

The consequence of this is that in a short period of time there are fewer rats, but in less than a month, the rats have skyrocketed by three or four times! Because the rats have a seven-day reproductive cycle.

Therefore, what the ancestors said about "axe gold enters the mountains and forests at the right time" is very reasonable.

Straight to the point.

Today's work, today's work.

As soon as he got home, Guo Qu kept carrying his pocket, as well as a small scale, carrying a back pocket, leading the girl, and asking from door to door in the village if there was any waste to sell.

In those days, every family basically had books, because no matter how poor they were, their children would still go to school, even though most of them only went to the first or second grade of primary school, and then dropped out of school and stayed at home, and when they reached adulthood, they would go out to work.

When you go to school, there must be books at home, but for ordinary people, many books are unwilling to sell, and they would rather rot at home than sell!

At this time, it is necessary to persuade them, because the book is rotten at home, and it is better to sell it, and a few cents are counted.

Although he had pockets and scales, he knew that it would be impossible to receive many books this afternoon, but it would be nice to receive scrap metal.

With such a mentality, there is no urgency.

In the whole village, there are 50 or 60 households, and each family must have at least two or three catties of books, right? In this way, there are at least 180 catties of books, and as for scrap iron, rotten aluminum basins, copper wires, and other metals, each family still has one or two catties.

If you want to say the source of these things, in fact, it is the hoe, the basin, the line on the engine and the like, uh, the copper may be less, a few taels are still there, and when the village is electrified, it is estimated that there will be more.

"Second aunt, do you have any scrap to sell? I'm starting to collect scrap now. Guo went to find a random one, knocked on the door, and said after the door opened.

"You melon baby, you learn to collect waste at such a young age, or ask your grandfather to send you to school!"

This sounds a little uncomfortable for Guo Qu, maybe he stayed in the city for a long time in his previous life, and he is not used to the style of rural people who "speak roughly", but he also knows that there is nothing wrong with what the second aunt said, and rural people have not read many books, so the words and sentences used in the reprimand are naturally very rough.

However, this roughness is more rustic, and people who are used to hearing it can hear the mixed care.

"Second aunt, let's talk about reading later, you don't know the situation of my family. I'm really here to collect scrap today, do you still have scrap iron, aluminum, and old books in your house?"

The woman glanced at Guo Qu, "Forget it, I won't say anything, there are still waste products at home, but it's just ......"

"For those who collect waste on the street, I will give four cents for old books, and I will give five cents if they are more than 100 catties. ”

The latter sentence is equivalent to not saying it, because many people don't have a hundred catties of books at home. However, Guo Qu later realized that he still underestimated the villager's ability to settle accounts.

"As for iron, I collect seven cents on the street, and I collect eight cents. Eight cents on Aluminum Street, nine cents for me. As for copper, I'll take a pound of it!"

Although this will cause dissatisfaction among peers, Guo Qu must do so.

There are two reasons, one is that the price is higher, that is, the price is higher than others, and it is easy to receive more scrap.

The second is that the price is too the street, he is a little unaccustomed to it, and it is nothing if he does not enter this line. It is even more uncomfortable to think of the scrap products that the old man sold at a low price in the past.

"Is it true?"

"Ouch, my second aunt, I don't believe I can ask tomorrow, tomorrow is the day of the show, by the way, I will know?"

"yes, then I'll ask tomorrow. ”

Friendship is friendship, business is business, and the villagers are still very open.

Next, I changed to the next one, I also didn't want to sell, and I wanted to sell it until I asked the price tomorrow before deciding.

Guo went naturally to show understanding, and then pulled the girl to the next house.

……

"Sir's grandson, come to my house, I have a few pounds of iron here, and some books. ”

It was a middle-aged man from the village who spoke, about forty years old, and the old man taught him when he was a child, and he was still called Mr. at that time, and he developed a liking, so it was passed down.

"Third Uncle Huang, what's the matter, don't you ask the price?" Guo Qu joked.

"What do you ask, I only sold some scrap iron last month, and the price is not as high as yours. ”

After speaking, Uncle Huang went back to the house and took out the scrap iron and put it on the ground at will.

When Guo went to see this, he first put the iron in a snakeskin bag, and then weighed it.

"Third Uncle Huang, twelve catties and six taels, go to one or two skins, is it twelve catties and a half?"

"Okay!" Third Uncle Huang glanced at Guo Qu and said with a smile.

He was satisfied at the time, there were more than one or two snakeskin pockets, Guo Qu deliberately let him take advantage, how could he not see it?

"Okay, that's ten bucks. ”

Guo went to put down the snakeskin bag, then took out two pieces of five from his pocket and handed them over, "Third uncle, you count." ”

"A few farts, just two pieces of money, and the third uncle is not dazzled. ”

Guo went to smile and said, "Yes, yes, yes." Then I'll go, if there is any waste in the future, tell me, and I'll come to collect it. ”

"Okay!"

Guo Qu's conversation with Uncle Huang was naturally seen by several villagers, who did not choose to wait and see, and directly took out scrap iron and other waste products. Guo Qu also packed a big bag.

Then he couldn't move away, so he had to call his grandfather loudly on the spot. The old man carried it several times with his back pocket before he finished it.

Scrap iron in the countryside is actually just that: broken stoves and pots that can't be repaired, hoes, firewood knives, sickles, etc., which can not be welded many times.

It is only this thing that cannot be used, and what cannot be repaired, and the villagers will sell it as scrap iron.
