The next day was the day of the rush, Guo went to fantasize about catching the badger pig last night, so he got up from the bed neatly early in the morning, took the girl, called grandpa, and the three of them ran up the mountain.

However, perhaps two badger pigs were recruited, which alerted the other badger pigs a lot, so there was no harvest at all.

When I got home, I had breakfast early, and then I took the girl to the market (to catch the market).

The five-day rush is naturally very lively, because there are many buyers and sellers.

Guo went to take Xiaojing's hand and led her through the crowd, and when she walked a hundred meters away, it took five or six minutes to buy the stall of iron clips last time, which shows how crowded the street is!

This time he wants to buy bigger clips, especially the ones that are specially designed to grip wild boars! Five clips for wild boars, that's his current idea.

When the boss saw Guo coming, he felt a little familiar, and after thinking about it carefully, he remembered that it was the customer who rushed to the venue last time, so a smile appeared on his face.

"What is the little brother going to buy this time?"

Guo looked around the goods on his stall, and finally fixed his eyes on a steel clip with a diameter of 40 centimeters, and then said, "I want to buy this kind of clip!"

The businessmen of this era are still good, and the stalls are locals, so Guo went to buy a clip, and he was still a little uneasy to persuade, "Children, this thing can eat people, don't buy it indiscriminately!"

"It's okay, my grandfather will come in a while, and I mainly buy it for him. "To be honest, Guo didn't bring too much money with him, especially on this rush day, because there was a lot of money, it would bulge in his pocket, and then he just walked on the street and waited for a few minutes to find out...... The money is gone!

The folk customs of this era are still very simple, but no matter how simple the era is, there will be pickpockets, because they are poor.

This is a backward mountainous area in Guizhou Province, and the rally is only a five-day rush day, which is naturally a "working day" for pickpockets.

In order to prevent the money from being stolen, he put most of the money in the girl's pockets, and there were two boiled potatoes on the money, so he didn't believe that those pickpockets could think of this!

Think about it, too, who would put money in the pocket of a two-year-old?

"Boss, can you demonstrate, this big clamp looks a little scary. ”

"Okay. ”

To demonstrate, it is true that the business scope of the owner of the stall here is something like that, so I agreed without even thinking about it.

In this way, Guo Qu broke away from the crowd, walked to the empty space behind the stall, and then squatted on the ground, quietly watching the boss demonstrate the mechanism of this steel clamp with a diameter of 40 centimeters.

The boss made a lot of effort to break open the closed "mouth" of the clip, then stepped on the broken one with two feet, took away the saw-like teeth, buckled the trigger mechanism to the key point, put the mechanism on a small iron plate with a diameter of four or five centimeters, and then slowly relaxed.

At this time, the boss's face is extremely serious, because this is the most dangerous time. Just imagine, when his legs are removed, there is no steel clamp mouth pressed by his weight, if the trap card is not stuck properly, then the boss is not crippled but also seriously injured!

Fortunately, when the mechanism was stuck just now, it was stuck well, but there was no accident, and after the boss's legs left the steel clamp, it lay there quietly, not moving.

"You must be careful when you put it, you have to make sure many times that the mechanism is stuck or not, if it is not stuck, then your feet can't leave the clamp mouth, you must remember what I said, otherwise it can clip people's thighs! This kind of thing has happened several times, you think about it yourself. ”

After speaking, after the owner of the stall walked two or three meters away from the steel clamp, he picked up a stone and threw it accurately on the small iron plate of four or five centimeters that triggered the mechanism.

Click!

Boom!

Guo Qu was startled, and the girl was even more frightened and buried her head on Guo Qu's shoulder.

Guo Qu could see clearly just now that when the iron clamp was triggered by the stone, the open mouth instantly had a huge bite force due to the action of the spring.

This bite force conducts a small part to the ground, making the steel clip fly up one meter high, coupled with the moment the clamp's mouth closes, the sparks emitted by the sawtooth colliding with each other, this scene directly frightened Guo Qu.

It's really terrible, if this is caught in his little arms and legs, then it will be gone in a puff? At most, there is still a layer of skin, and the flesh and blood are blurred......

But the thought of this thing being able to clip off the wild boar's legs, and then a lot of money, and then be able to eat white rice every day, and then the girl has wheat poop to eat every day, and then ......

Thinking of this, this powerful steel clamp is no longer terrifying in his heart, but seems a little cute.

"Boss, how much is it?" Guo Qu looked at the iron clip with bright eyes, and the hidden light in his eyes made the boss feel a little crazy.

"Five dollars a piece, if you buy five, you can't give twenty-five dollars a penny. ”

"So expensive, then I'll buy five, can you give me a few more big chains?" Guo Qu said as he looked at the boss with innocent eyes.

"No, but if you buy five chains, I can give you an extra clip. ”

"Huh?"

"Well, I'll sell this kind of iron chain for six dollars a piece. The boss took out a broom-thick iron chain from the snakeskin bag, showed it to Guo, and said.

If you want to clamp the wild boar, this thing should not be difficult, it is rare that after the clamp, you can trap the wild boar, that ordinary rope or iron chain will definitely not work, how can you have this broom thick iron chain.

In this way, Guo went to calculate, "Five iron chains, then you have to pay thirty yuan, and if you buy five iron chains, you will get an iron clip, then he also needs to buy four iron clips, so it will cost twenty, then a total of fifty yuan!"

That's more than my grandfather's salary for half a year's work! Guo went to tell the boss what he had just calculated, and then said, "Can I only give forty yuan? I really can't afford fifty, and besides, if I buy it, I may not be able to catch a wild boar, and if I can't catch it, I will lose a lot? If this price is not good, I will not buy it." ”

The boss was amazed at the arithmetic of the ten-year-old boy in front of him at this time, in this era, he could calculate so carefully, especially in remote areas, that is the existence of genius.

However, after listening to Guo Qu's last sentence, the shock in his eyes immediately dissipated, this kid wants me to bleed heavily, but, seeing the kid dressed like this, it is estimated that he really can't take out so much money, he hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Alas, count me at a loss, forty-five yuan, if you want it, then take it!"

"Then I want it. Knowing that I can cut the price to forty-five, it is really not easy, and if you want to continue to cut, it is even more impossible.

"But boss, you have to wait, wait for my grandfather to pay the bill, I don't dare to bring so much money with me. ”

"Huh?"

"You don't have to worry, I'll wait here for my grandfather to come, I'll buy it, you put the chains and clips in snakeskin pockets first, and we'll carry them away when we're done." ”
