Chapter 66: Bleakness (II)

PS: Ask, push, recommend, vote, thank you.

……

The little girl looked very happy, and although she could only choose one pair of pants, she was already satisfied, "I want these pants." ”

The little girl was referring to a pair of black trousers, and the old man picked them up, looked at them carefully, picked up the other same trousers, looked at them, and chose one that she thought was very good.

Then, she chose another pair of pants for her grandson, gave Guo 30 yuan, and Guo went to find her 5 yuan.

The old man's patriarchal concept is not something that Guo can dispel with a few words, but it is already the best result to persuade her to buy a pair of pants for this poor little girl.

Guo Qu was very happy, because when he helped this little girl, he also sold an extra pair of pants, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

The old man and the little girl turned around and left, Guo went to look up, there were still vegetable leaves in their backs, they should have come to sell vegetables.

Put the thirty yuan in his hand into the canvas bag, and then sit on the stool, continue to wait for the customer to come to the door, this morning he is not killed or sold, after all, one night, his hoarse voice yesterday can not be completely good, he has to use his throat to the most critical time.

Then apart from the old man and her granddaughter, there were no more customers to buy clothes.

Sitting on a stool, when there is nothing to do, it will be boring, as long as it is bored, the sleepy bug will come, and no matter how you rush it, you can't get rid of it.

Guo Qu began to doze off in a daze, his jaw began to weakly contact his chest, and then he fell asleep.

The stall is placed here, and under normal circumstances, no one dares to steal anything, after all, it is sunny in broad daylight, coupled with a group of people who are not as cold-blooded as later generations, these reasons are combined, so that Guo Qu dares to sleep with confidence.

When the time came to half past eleven, Guo Qu woke up in a daze, hurriedly stood up and walked a few steps, his legs were numb due to sitting for a long time, and after walking a few steps, the blood on his legs began to circulate, and it was relieved a lot.

Coughed and tried his throat, and found that it was not as good as yesterday, he was a little disappointed, the loudspeakers of the vendors on the left and right had already begun to play the recorded words on a loop, this was Guo Qu's "enemy", an enemy he couldn't beat.

He also wanted to buy one of these speakers, but there was no such thing as a sale in the county, so he had to wait until the next time he went to the red city to buy it.

As a result, his voice will probably be hoarse for the next few days.

"Fifteen, fifteen, fifteen, the quality is guaranteed, if you don't believe it, you can come and have a look!"

"You can't buy fifteen yuan, and you can't buy it. ”

"This is the first time I've set up a stall here, the price is discounted, fifteen yuan a piece, two pieces only twenty-five, three pieces thirty-five, if you buy four pieces, I only charge you forty yuan!"

……

The effect of selling is still there, but the effect is not as great as the horn, from twelve o'clock to three o'clock in the afternoon, the time when the most people rush to the market, there are only five or six people to buy clothing, and there are not many sold, only about a dozen.

After three o'clock, Guo Qu, who had been setting up a stall on the street, obviously felt that the flow of people had decreased, and there were fewer people, so the business naturally went downhill.

Sitting back on the stool, Guo Qu pinched his neck with his hands, and he clearly felt as if there was a fire burning in his throat.

It took up more than four hours, and at this time my legs were also weak and I felt a little swollen. However, these are minor problems, and there is still a long time to come, and it is not easy to compromise on laziness.

From three o'clock to six o'clock in the afternoon, only one person patronized Guo's stall and bought two clothes and one trouser.

Today's harvest is not big, selling eight pieces of clothes and three pairs of pants, the harvest is one hundred and forty-five, and the net profit is about a hundred yuan.

After six o'clock, Guo Qu's uncle drove a yellow label car to pick him up, folded the clothes and put them in a big pocket, put on the body of the yellow label car, folded the sheets, took the stool, sat on the seat of looking for someone to weld, and the car started slowly.

Halfway to the road, the car stopped, there was a small pile of waste on the side of the road, this is the waste that has not been pulled, his father did sit on the stone next to the waste, looked at the waste, saw the yellow label car coming, and hurriedly got up.

After the car stopped, Guo Qu's clothes and other items were taken out, and then the three of them began to load the waste into the car, and finally put the bag containing the clothing on the waste products, and then fixed them with ropes, this time Guo went to drive.

His uncle is still a little unfamiliar with the performance of the car, driving very slowly, at this time it is getting dark, it is not good to drive slowly.

The car drove in the direction of Sanyuan Township, the tires pressed on the small stones, due to the heavy weight of the car plus waste and people, the stones were squeezed into the air, and then hit other stones on the road, making a "click" sound.

Because it was like this all the way, the noise was very loud, so the three of them didn't chat at all, if they wanted to chat, then the usual voice was not good, they had to shout loudly to hear, but after a tired day, who had the energy to shout?

Back on the street of Sanyuanxiang, the car first stopped at the house where Guo went to his father's house before, put the clothes, bed sheets and benches into the wooden house, and then drove the car to the supply and marketing cooperative, got off the scrap products, locked the car, closed the room door, locked the big iron door, opened the small iron door, and the three of them went home hungry.

Along the way, the three of them talked about collecting scrap, although Guo Qu is not involved in collecting scrap, but it is still okay to be a "staff officer".

And some troublesome things must be done by Guo to make suggestions.

For example, the people who collect waste in Huaxi Township have heard the rumors and have taken the same measures as Wu Dashun at the beginning, and the waste in Huaxi Township is very difficult to collect.

Guo Qu came up with an idea, every day in the future, he would go to which township to set up a stall, his father and uncle would go where to collect the waste, no need to go to the street to collect it, just send Guo Qu to the street in the morning, and pick him up before nightfall.

This has two advantages, one is that it is convenient for Guo to go, after all, the two towns are seven or eight kilometers away from each other, and there must be a means of transportation.

Second, going can effectively avoid peers, Guo Qu's father and uncle go to other towns to collect waste, which is equivalent to "invaders" and is easy to be resisted by "defenders". In this way, there is nowhere to collect a day, and conflicts can be avoided to a large extent.

As I got closer to home, it was getting darker and darker, and I couldn't see the way clearly, so I finally returned home.

Because Guo Qu and the three of them have been talking, so before they arrived at the house, the sound was the first to reach the girl's ears, she opened the door excitedly and ran out, but the feet were mixed with stones, and she fell to the ground with a plop, Guo Qu and the three were so frightened that they hurriedly ran over to pick up the girl and check whether she had fallen.

Maybe it was a sudden fall that frightened the girl, or maybe it really hurt, the girl cried loudly, that grievance, it was really sad for the listener, smelling tears.

Seeing that there was no fall, Guo Qu breathed a sigh of relief, held the girl in his arms, patted her back and comforted her silently.
