Chapter 44 Shopping in the county

1．

The preparations for the "Art Specialty Class for the Third Year of Junior High School" led by the spring are progressing smoothly.

A total of 23 students were enrolled in the six classes of the junior high school and three levels, and thirteen students were selected from them after a simple examination in the spring.

These thirteen students became the first batch of students in the spring "Art Specialty Class", and Xiangxing from Chen Haiping's class was also included.

This art specialty class in the spring is still a new thing in Hushan Town, no one has done it before, and Spring is the first person in Hushan Town to "eat crabs".

Students and parents don't know what the art specialty class is, let alone what they can learn and what they can do when they enter the specialty class. There are also some parents who are ingrained in their minds that learning to paint is not a proper job, so they prevent their children from signing up.

Through the registration of the "Art Specialty Class", I saw the backwardness of the thoughts and concepts of the people in my hometown in the spring. This kind of spiritual poverty is more terrible than material poverty, and material poverty can be slowly improved through hands and hard work, but ideological backwardness and spiritual poverty can only be slowly changed through continuous study, knowledge, and education from generation to generation.

Spring is a highly educated people's teacher, shouldering the sacred duty of teaching and educating people, and this incident made him understand that the road he has to take in the future may be very long, very long.

Song Xiuwen called and called Spring to go to the county seat to buy the materials needed to build the studio, and in the spring, he asked Li Ze for a leave and went to the logistics office to find Song Xiuwen.

Song Xiuwen didn't let Accountant Wang and the bookkeeper follow, saying that there was no one in the back office, so he asked Accountant Wang and them to sit at home.

Received an advance of 3,000 yuan from Accountant Wang, and Song Xiuwen took the spring to a rented "Black Panther" four-wheeled agricultural vehicle.

The owner of a restaurant in the town was driving, known as "Lao Liu", which is also the only taxi in Hushan Town, and the car needs to be booked in advance, and Song Xiuwen told Boss Liu three days ago.

Song Xiuwen sat in the front passenger seat, and Spring sat alone in the back seat.

This is the first time I have taken a taxi in the spring, and everything feels very novel, touching this and moving that, which provoked Song Xiuwen's laughter.

The car arrived at the county seat, and under the command of the spring, it drove directly to the trade wholesale market.

3．

The county's wholesale trade market sells all kinds of goods, and the things are much cheaper than those in the street shops.

When I go to school in the spring, I often take the bus here to wander around and buy some cheap and necessary school or daily necessities.

According to his own list, in the spring, he went door-to-door to buy various items and bargain prices, Song Xiuwen followed behind to pay, and the driver Lao Liu led the sellers to carry things to the car one by one.

Sketching tables, painting benches, easels, drawing boards, spotlights, various interlinings, sunshade curtains, various pencils, erasers, gouache paints, all kinds of pencils, etc., in the spring, it took nearly two hours to buy all the shops selling art supplies in the wholesale market.

Song Xiuwen followed behind Spring with a briefcase, her chubby face was full of oil, and she was tired and panting.

In the process of Song Xiuwen's payment, Spring found a problem, that is, Song Xiuwen asked for a blank ** in each store, and only filled in the number of purchased items, but did not fill in the unit price and total amount.

The first time I came out in the spring to buy supplies for the school, I thought it should be just that, so I didn't ask anything.

4．

By the time it was close to 12 o'clock in the afternoon, all the items to be purchased at the wholesale market had been loaded into the car.

Lao Liu started the car and asked Song Xiuwen where he was going.

Before Song Xiuwen could speak, he interjected in the spring, saying that there were still a few students short of gypsum for sketching, which was not sold on the market, and there was a gypsum factory in Nanguan, the county seat, that was sold.

Song Xiuwen ignored Spring, interrupted him, and directed Lao Liu to a hotel near the market.

Entering the hotel, Song Xiuwen ordered a table full of good dishes, two bottles of liquor, and three boxes of cigarettes.

Anyway, with Song Xiuwen here, he didn't bother to worry about it in the spring, and everything was tossed with Song Xiuwen.

The three of them gathered around drinking, smoking, and gossiping.

It didn't take long for the two bottles of liquor to bottom out, and Song Xiuwen had to put another bottle on it, but was stopped by spring.

Lao Liu's family also runs a restaurant, it seems that he has been tested by alcohol for a long time, he drank more than seven taels, he didn't even blush, he couldn't see any alcohol at all, he looked at the spring and Song Xiuwen with a smile, and he didn't speak.

As soon as she opened her mouth to stop her, Song Xiuwen couldn't get off the stage in front of Lao Liu, and her fat face turned a little purple after drinking, and she could see that she was obviously unhappy in her heart.

In the spring, I had no choice but to give another bottle of half-catty liquor.

Song Xiuwen took it, opened it, and didn't pour a drop into the spring cup, and drank it separately from Lao Liu.

In the spring, I am happy to drink a little less, and I don't care, and I eat food with peace of mind.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Spring helped the drunk Song Xiuwen to the car.

Song Xiuwen's fat body was stuck in the co-pilot's seat, and his head was resting on the back of the seat.

Before Lao Liu started the car, Song Xiuwen was already snoring.

In the spring, I had to direct Lao Liu to drive to the gypsum factory in Nanguan.

When he arrived at the gypsum factory, Lao Liu parked the car at the gate of the factory, and entered the factory alone in the spring.

After choosing the plaster static object that needs to be bought, negotiating the price, I went to the car in the spring and woke up Song Xiuwen, who was sleeping soundly.

Song Xiuwen rubbed her red eyes and awkwardly got out of the car.

Standing on the side of the road and stretching, Song Xiuwen poured a soak of urine under the tree at the entrance of the gypsum factory, and then entered the factory with the briefcase to pay in the spring.
