If you want to say where is the most complete place to buy flowers, birds, fish and insects in Beijing, it has to be said that it is located opposite the children's activity center of the Guanyuan Market. It has undergone several changes, and the location has been changing in a small range, and the scale and shape are also different in different eras.

There are all kinds of gadgets here, most of which are old gadgets in the capital, such as gnats, crickets, pigeons, goldfish, tropical fish, fishing gear, flowers and plants, bonsai, ornaments, jade seals, stamps and coins, etc., both real and fake, good and bad.

In addition, there are some stalls selling peanuts, eggs, and dried fruits, and they are buying goods while secretly using money to buy food stamps, and a pound of food stamps in the city can be exchanged for about two or three cents. What did they do with the food stamps they bought? Most of them were sold to those who went to Beijing to work, but there was no food ration here, which was also a crime at the time, but very few people caught it, and they couldn't control it.

Hong Tao often came here to hang out in his previous life, he loves to eat Hami apricots here, and he loves the tropical fish here. Every time he comes, he will buy a few, and then keep them in cans and bottles, and put them in the desk, who dares to touch his desk, it must be a beating, for a long time, when the classmates are cleaning, they all bypass his seat in the corner.

In this life, Hong Tao didn't have the interest to continue to raise tropical fish in the desk, because it was too worrying and tiring, and it was also a kind of torture for tropical fish. No wonder the two deaths in the first three days were all forced to die! Therefore, in this life, Hong Tao plans to compensate for them, and he has already given up to the glass factory with a glass roof in his small courtyard. Two three-meter-long large fish tanks were glued out of the sandwich glass used as a glass curtain wall, and a shelf was welded with angle steel outside, one was placed in the main house of his small courtyard, and the other was placed in the office of the new Lido, which was considered to buy two houses for these tropical fish, and there was no need to squeeze them in cans and bottles.

What do you keep in such a big tank? Arowana, maps, and other large tropical fish. At this time, it is not common in the market, and Hong Tao, a tropical fish such as peacock and red arrow, does not like it very much, so it is simple. There are 200 traffic lights in each tank, and then a rockery in it, hey, flickering. It's pretty impressive to look at. So Hong Tao is here today. Not only do you have to buy some goldfish and vines, but you also have to touch a batch of traffic lights to go back.

But Hong Tao doesn't have to touch it himself, he has an acquaintance here, who is it? It's that Xia Baibei, that old man! Since he got back a truckload of sapphires for Hong Tao, he has not been running around the country like crazy as before, but has rented a counter here, and has set up stalls here in spring, summer and autumn. Selling jade, seal materials and the like, whether to make money or not Hong Tao is not clear. Anyway, it's pretty down-to-earth.

But every year when the weather is cold, he doesn't go out of the stall, but goes to Yunnan with his luggage, which is a month or two, and before the Spring Festival, he appears on the second floor with a big suitcase, and gets a bunch of rough stones back for Hong Tao. However, the price of these rough stones is no longer 151 catties, but 300 yuan a catty, because the third brother said that his brother and several brothers-in-law exchanged salt and cloth from Myanmar, and the cost is high. And there are also Hong Kong and Taiwan businessmen who have begun to pay attention to this thing, the price is getting higher and higher, once the window is opened, the green is left, are left by the locals, and they are not willing to take it lightly, only these light colors or impure colors can be made.

Three hundred is three hundred, Hong Tao remembers that in the later generations, everyone is not playing with Mancui, but planting water, as long as the water is good, it is worth money, as for whether you have color or no color, whether it is green or pink, it also matters, but the impact on the price does not seem to be too big. Whether this is the case or not, Hong Tao really doesn't know, he didn't care much about this thing in his previous life, but if he buys a rough stone that is sure to be jadeite for three hundred yuan, he shouldn't lose money.

"What are you playing with? I heard my uncle say, you still play with crickets, do you need me to go to Shandong to touch a few crickets for you?" After the third child saw Hong Tao, he was like a hungry wolf seeing a pleasant goat, and his eyes shimmered green.

"You'd better rest, I'm not calling this a play, it's a waste, what's good, what's bad, I can't tell the difference, it's just a mallet! You don't have to worry about my mallet. But the mallet is the mallet, we can't let people be blinded, I don't know anyone here, I know the third you, then don't bother others, or can you help me Zhang Luo Zhang Luo?" Hong Tao automatically filtered the green light in the third child's eyes, and then handed him a small cigar, and roughly explained his intentions.

"I said Hong Tao, you still called me the third uncle last year, so now you have changed to the third uncle? Shouldn't we be more and more affectionate, and I didn't offend you, right?" The third child was not used to smoking cigars, and he almost choked to death when he inhaled a cigarette, so he began to look for evil stubble.

"If you continue to be one hundred and fifty thousand pounds, I still call you uncle, you are three hundred and one pounds, doubled, I don't call you eldest nephew, it's good. Let's not say who we are, it's all things that recognize money and don't recognize people, so let's talk about it as equals, don't go to the second master's side! In fact, the second master used to talk to me about buddies, don't believe you ask him to go, so you won't lose anything, right?" Hong Tao doesn't hate this pure money string, but he definitely doesn't like it, so he doesn't want to eat a little loss, and if he doesn't take advantage, he is already a loss.

"Then you still call me grandson, as long as you raise the price to five hundred yuan a catty, you call me grandson in front of people outside, I have to agree crisply, what do you think?" Hong Tao is thick-skinned, and the third child has no face at all.

"Why don't I call you grandpa, and you will find me a hundred pounds of stone in the future? I can't afford to raise such an expensive grandson as you, stop talking nonsense, get me fish, you can pay the money, I didn't bring the money." "Hong Tao has taken advantage of enough, he doesn't want to continue to fight and play, he is very busy now, and the songs prepared for Tan Jing are still waiting to find someone to perfect them, and with this kung fu, it is better for him to go back and rub a few stones than to grind his teeth here.

"Why do you pay for fish!" The third child was not happy, and he didn't move.

"Then next time you come back with a stone, I will adjust the scale, and weigh you less than ten catties and eight catties, and you can figure out the cost-effective ...... yourself" Hong Tao didn't bring no money today, mainly as soon as he saw the third child, he remembered the hundreds of thousands of yuan he took from him, how to think about it and how to feel wronged.

"Cheng, count you ruthless! Go, what kind of fish do you buy?" The third child quickly picked up the fake inkstone on the counter and smashed it on Hong Tao's head, but thinking of the small money, he still endured it, turned out from behind the counter, and walked towards the stall selling fish with Hong Tao.

With the help of the third child, Hong Tao quickly managed 400 traffic lights, 10 palm-sized goldfish, and a four-year-old vine that had already borne fruit. In addition to the grapevines, he can't take these things today, because the quantity he wants is a bit large, which is a big deal, and the stall doesn't have so much stock, and they also go to Tianjin to buy the goods, so they have to wait for two days before these fish can arrive in Beijing, and they will naturally contact Hong Tao and send them to him at that time.

"I said third uncle, you stare at this stall all day long, so who is watching your son?" Bai took advantage of the third one thousand yuan, Hong Tao was in a good mood, and the third one was promoted to the third uncle's rank again.

"It's not easy, find a nanny!" The third child looked at Hong Tao very vigilantly, he was wondering why this scourge didn't leave, didn't he hold back other bad ideas.

"Babysitter!?oh...... I said, why don't you go out now, it turns out that there is a nanny, there is a nanny to do during the day, and you are a nanny when there is no work at night, hahahaha, third uncle, you are busy, I'm leaving, I'll find a little nanny to try!" Hong Tao listened to the third child's words, was stunned for a moment, and then seemed to understand the inside story, patted the third child's shoulder, and left with a smile, but the surrounding stall owners looked at the third child's expression a little like that.

Chongwenmen Triangle!

This place name has a special meaning in the capital of the ** decade, the scientific name is hired worker, and the vernacular is called looking for a nanny. The triangle is talking about the topography here, here is a very complex intersection, the north is the street leading to Dongdan, the west is the street leading to the front door, the south is the street leading to the Temple of Heaven, the east is two streets, the upper one is leading to the square in front of the Beijing station, and the lower is leading to the Dongbian Gate. Five streets meet here, but the east side is cut into pieces, and an irregular roundabout appears in the middle, which is a bit triangular, so it is called a triangle.

Because it is very close to Beijing Railway Station, and it is a dense crowd and convenient intersection, so the people who enter Beijing to work are too lazy to go farther, and simply gather on the roadside here, waiting for someone to hire themselves, every day from early morning to evening, hundreds of people will gather on the northeast corner of this intersection, a large area of black pressure, once someone stops on the side of the road to ask about employment prices and other questions, a bunch of people will hula around and scramble to sell themselves.

I'm sorry, at that time, there were no such institutions that kept their hair and no one to organize these people who went to the city to work, everyone was self-organized, the employer and the employee negotiated the price themselves, and then there was no contract. However, this practice only lasted for a few years, and after everyone's eyes were confused by money, this natural transaction model was not very suitable. (To be continued!)
