Separated from Qiu Shilin's horsepower, Zhang Xingming walked home with twist flowers and Dadongzi. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Coming out of the grain station is the non-staple food store, and the non-staple food building is the department store, which is the center of Guobao, and even the police station on the front and back and left and right add up to two acres of land, and then all the shops around these stores are residential buildings.
The top of the shop is the auxiliary road from the Shen Dan Line Highway to the concentrator, also called the factory road, which is built by the factory, and this road is the free market at this time, and all the people who sell things are concentrated on this road, because this road is the road with the most commuting workers.
The intersection is a row of four or five tin sheds, the first one is the largest, it is opened by the Hou Fang's house, the two sides of the street are fully equipped with large glass windows, selling some daily necessities, the back few are much smaller, one is using a scrapped bus shell, the small window head can not stick in, only sell some non-staple food.
This place is a crossroads, and it is also the only crossroads in Guobao until now, and the business has been concentrated here until now.
With Shen Dan Highway as the boundary, here are shops and grocery stores, free markets, the road is full of restaurants, four or five large and small ones, the largest one is state-owned, large collective trading, the rest are private, are all iron sheds, can put three or four tables in it, the environment is very poor, very simple, but in this era it makes many people envious, look at people, open a restaurant, in fact, the people come to the restaurant to eat very little, who can be willing to spend this money, are people in the society or people in the unit will have nothing to do with a drink, the former drinks face, the latter drinks other people's moneyγ
A few vegetable sellers stood behind the cart in coats and stamped their feet, covering thick masks, Zhang Xingming and Da Dongzi walked over, and the vegetable sellers raised their hands and took off their masks to greet them: "What are you visiting today?"
This is the habitual thinking, at that time, there were really few families who were willing to buy vegetables to eat, big sauerkraut stewed potatoes and put some pork belly, a winter to eat, this is still the living conditions at this time, the original meat is not there, and those who can put some lard are counted as first-class families.
Zhang Xingming looked at these vegetable sellers and sighed a little in his heart, in the previous life, there were mothers and brothers standing in the snow and stomping their feet at this time, and the hardships were really indescribable.
These vegetable sellers are basically rural households around Guobao, and when they can do business, they have an extra way to live, setting up a small stall to sell a few vests and a few pairs of mille-feuille soles and farm shoes, selling some wool in spring and autumn, and selling vegetables and braised meat in winter.
The farmers in the Northeast are not easy to live, there is only one season of farming, starting from June and July, it can support until September, and then there is nothing in the field, there is no penny of income, how much can a few acres of land be paid for three months?
Some people who knew Zhang Xingming shouted from afar: "Erming, do you want to buy vegetables?"
The resentful person who spoke first looked back at the shouting person, and the bad mouth didn't squeak, people know acquaintances, and they can't pick it out, if they don't know the hard shouting person, they will have to fight.
"Hey, second brother, are you also out to sell vegetables? Don't you make tofu?" Zhang Xingming turned around and walked to the front of this stall, this person's name is Liu Er, no one knows the specific name, they all shouted like this, and his daughter-in-law also called him like this.
The two of them came out of the mountains, originally wanting to come to their relatives, but when they came to see that their relatives were not as good as his family, the industrial households at that time were really not as good as the rural life. The two didn't want to go back to the mountains, so they set up a tofu stall in Guobao, and at that time making tofu was not a craft, and people in the countryside would make it.
Who knew that the first time I entered the beans, I was deceived, and the water I entered was all beans, and the tofu made had no oil, and it was as unpalatable as bean dregs, and hundreds of dollars were thrown into the water.
The two of them were crying at the tofu stall, and they happened to be met by their father, who was a warm-hearted person, so he asked a few words, and as a result, he lent these two people who had never known each other 500 yuan, and the two of them climbed out of the pit and started business.
At that time, there were a lot of beans on the market, and even appeared in the grain station, which pitted many people.
The so-called eye-eyed beans are a round hole with a diameter of one millimeter on the top of each soybean grain, which is the oil extraction technology of Little Japan, which does not damage the beans and cannot be seen if you are not careful, but 90% of the oil in the soybeans has been pumped away.
At that time, the various technologies of small Japan were like myths and legends in the eyes of the Japanese people.
At that time, in Dandong and Dalian, there were many Japanese ships docked for many years, all of them were processing ships, like this eye bean is the product of these processing ships, the Chinese exchange soybeans for soybean oil, and small Japan earns the difference from it, and then sell these squeezed soybeans, make a profit, and then exchange the squeezed oil for beans, and the cycle repeats.
There are also processing steel, domestic coils sent over, for small Japanese rolling plates, and then the mine will exchange the high-priced rolling plates back to the equipment, sometimes the factory standard of Benxi Iron and Steel has not been polished off, he is directly processed with the coil you sent, but the quality is better than yours, this is the technology of grinding, no one has a temper to earn money.
After borrowing money, Liu Er often led his daughter-in-law to Zhang Xingming's house at night, and the relationship between people was everywhere, and they were very warm and had a good relationship.
"Aunt Zhang, have they come back? It's too far to move, and it's hard to get around. Liu Er smiled and talked to Zhang Xingming.
Zhang Xingming shook his head and said: "No, two days ago, Brother Dasheng got married and came back for a while, and he couldn't stay in the second place, and he went back in the second place, and he usually had nothing to do, my brother and younger brother both went to school, how could my mother have time to run here, and my father also went to the city." β
Liu Er said: "Your family is getting more and more presentable these days, when will I go to the city with your sister Xiang to see your mother, it's good over there?"
Zhang Xingming looked at the green vegetable samples on the stall and said: "That's it, it's different where to live, it's more convenient than the South Tomb, you can go when you have time, there are many houses over there, and you can take the children to stay for a few days, my mother must be happy, there are too few relatives and friends over there, and there are no neighbors, a little lonely." β
Liu Er said: "If you want to think about it, how can you have kung fu, isn't it money to go for a day? I can't hold back this thing, and it will rot in a few days, I can't go anywhere now, I can't go home to see my father, what do you want to eat? I'll bring it to you." β
Zhang Xingming turned his head and asked Dadong: "What do you want to eat?"
Dadong looked at it and said, "Kidney beans, leeks are fine, cauliflower is delicious, what else?"
Liu Er said: "This is a meat pepper, it's not spicy, how can we have a spicy pepper, it's not easy to sell, and few people can eat spicy." β
Zhang Xingming said: "Okay, let's have the same thing, kidney beans, leeks, cauliflower, peppers, eggplant and garlic sprouts, the same amount as two parts, tofu also some, there is no cabbage? β
Liu Er said the same thing, he also knew that Zhang Xingming was not short of these money, and he didn't pretend to say that he didn't want money.
