Chapter 384: Buying Firecrackers

While a few people were talking, they heard someone shouting at the door of their house. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"Zhiyuan's family, hurry up to the brigade compound, the firecracker seller is here!"

When Cheng Man heard this, he raised his voice and replied: "Sister-in-law Chen, you wait, I'll come here, let's go together!"

As he spoke, he took the money from the back room, arranged for Lin Wei and Cheng Man, and then hurriedly walked out.

As soon as she saw Cheng Man come out, Sister-in-law Chen pulled her and trotted up.

In the past, Wangshan Village only bought a few firecrackers to listen to the sound of the New Year, which meant that it was the New Year. This year's autumn harvest, they have a bumper harvest in Wangshan Village, and everyone wants to buy a firecracker to celebrate the New Year.

Who knew that in the middle of the month, when I went to the supply and marketing cooperatives to buy firecrackers, the firecrackers sold there were still the same as in previous years, they were all disassembled and sold one by one. A penny for a red cannonskin, a penny for a white cannonskin. Later, the people of Wangshan Village gave it to the supply and marketing cooperative, and the people there agreed to put in a few firecrackers. However, there is also a condition, that is, half of the money must be paid first.

Firecrackers are unlike anything else. If nothing else, just take its storage, which is troublesome enough. First, you can't see the tide, and the cannon will be dumb when the tide comes. Second, you can't see the fire, if you really encounter an open flame, it is estimated that the supply and marketing cooperatives will be destroyed. There is a third one, that is, ordinary people only have food and clothing, who wants to buy these pastime gadgets!

Take 10,000 steps back, if they say to buy it, and in the end they don't buy it, will they have to digest these things by themselves?

Therefore, the people of the supply and marketing cooperatives came up with such an idea, everyone wants to buy firecrackers, they should register first, and then pay a deposit first. Later, according to statistics, there were more people in Wangshan Village who bought firecrackers, so they said that they had entered the firecrackers, and they went to the brigade compound to wait for everyone. One hand to hand over the rest of the money, the other hand to firecrackers. By the way, I will tell you about safety knowledge.

In recent years, there are not many white cannon skins, and most of them are red cannon skins. During the New Year, three cannons were placed on the door and three on the door opener, and a few were also ordered in the cemetery when they went to the grave on Chinese New Year's Eve, so that the ancestors knew that their descendants had come to see them.

In short, in previous years, during the Chinese New Year, each household would buy at most a dozen firecrackers for preparation.

It is precisely because of this that when they go to the grave on Chinese New Year's Eve, some half-old children pestered to go, so that parents could show mercy and let them also light a good one.

As for the door cannon and the door opener, these little children didn't even think about it. The Chinese New Year is a major event of the year, and setting off firecrackers is something that the male owner who is the head of the family can do.

"Sister-in-law Chen, you also booked?"

Cheng Man took Chen's sister-in-law's arm and said with a smile: "How many hangings have you booked?"

Firecrackers are not only a symbol of the New Year, but also carry an indefinite expectation for the coming year, so this year, if you have some ideas, you will not follow the example of previous years, just buy a few.

As soon as Cheng Man's words fell, Sister-in-law Chen laughed, "We bought two hangers, and the red cannon skin ones are all 100 rings." ”

The red cannonball skin is two pennies, and a hundred rings are five cents.

Two skewers, that's more than a pound of meat!

"Sister-in-law Chen, this money, but if you hear the ring, it's gone, don't you feel distressed?" Cheng Man looked at the team compound in sight, and teased with a smile, "Why don't you buy more hangings?"

"Those are all ancestors, we will be able to count the courtesy, no matter how much, they are not picky. Sister-in-law Chen laughed heartily twice, "In addition to buying two firecrackers for this hundred rings, we also bought a few cents to scatter, which is enough for this time!"

Put a few on Chinese New Year's Eve and the first day of the new year, and put a few more when the fifth day of the new year breaks five, and this year, it will be alive together.

Sister-in-law Chen glanced at Cheng Man with a smile, "You still ask me, why don't you tell me about yourself, how much did your family buy?"

Without waiting for Cheng Man to say, he opened his mouth again, "This year, your two children were admitted to college, the child's father recovered well, and he also separated from his in-laws.

This year, it is estimated that the most nourishing one is their Lin family.

"Bought four hangings. Cheng Man has nothing to hide, "This year is indeed time to celebrate." ”

In addition to these, the family's accounts have been paid off, and the sewing machine that the girl said she was looking for had been told in advance to others, and everything was going in a comfortable direction, and buying a few firecrackers to make her heart bright and bright, nothing bad.

"By the way, I heard that our town is going to open a social food processing factory, and it was your daughter's money, is there such a thing? Don't bluff me, the mayor and the people from the Revolutionary Committee went to your house last night!"

Sister-in-law Chen said with some emotion, "If I really recruit workers, do you think I will succeed?"

Cheng Man remembered what his daughter said, and smiled when she heard this, "Sister-in-law Chen, we can't run a factory personally, right? So, this recruitment, when the time comes, it depends on what the mayor says, if the conditions are met, regardless of men and women, they can enter the factory. ”

Can it still be like this?

"You can't meddle with your own money?"

Sister-in-law Chen looked at Cheng Man, and felt a little uncomfortable. In the past, neither of them was better than the other, but it was only less than half a year, and the pockets of other people's money were so deep. Coupled with the two college students in the family, it is estimated that they will only be able to blush in the future.

"Yes, even I don't know if I can enter the factory. My child's father was injured, needless to say, he definitely won't be able to enter the factory. ”

Cheng Man didn't mind telling her this, the villagers, what they could say, it was not interesting to hide it.

After all, we still have to meet in the future.

Sister-in-law Chen believed it a little, Cheng Man is a person, and she never says anything about shadowless. Since she said so, it is estimated that the recruitment of workers in the factory is really not the master.

For a while, I was a little embarrassed.

Fortunately, they had already arrived at the gate of the brigade's compound, and the two of them lined up behind the line.

There are two tables at the door of the brigade compound, and in front of one table sits a staff member of the supply and marketing cooperative, holding a pen and paper, and shouting someone's name from time to time. On a table there were disassembled firecrackers on the right, and on the left were stacks of tall hanging firecrackers, and a man stood behind the table.

The division of labor between the two is clear, the villagers are orderly, and there is no chaos.

Except for a few boys in the village lying on the ground crying and shouting for cannons, it was quite harmonious.

The child is not stupid, and he knows that the adult will definitely not disassemble this hanging cannon, so he can only use sprinkling and rolling to buy a penny cannon to play with.
