Chapter Eighty-Five: The Watch's Trouble!
In the morning, when Zhang Yuling left on errands, Momo locked the door and went out. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
At seven o'clock, Momo arrived at the agreed intersection, Wang Tiezhu and Zhao Damei arrived early, Wang Tiezhu saw Momo carrying the basket, hurriedly took it, and checked it with his hand, good guy, there are about thirty pounds.
Wang Tiezhu was very surprised: "It is worthy of being Qingbai's sister, and her strength is not small." ”
Momo laughed dryly, she didn't have that much strength, she was almost at the place to get out of the space, and she didn't walk a few steps.
Zhao Damei glanced at the basket, excited, these are all rice, if you use it well, you can exchange a lot of cornmeal, and affectionately pull Momo, "Let's go, the seafood is ready." ”
"Good. ”
On the way back, Wang Tiezhu carried the basket on his back, wanted to open his mouth several times, and finally endured it, Momo turned his head sideways and asked, "Company Commander Wang, is there anything wrong with you?"
Zhao Damei also looked over, Wang Tiezhu thought of the big family in the family, and finally opened his mouth, "That's the case, where we have cornmeal for rice here, one pound of rice for two and a half pounds of cornmeal, so I want to ask, how much rice do you still have in your hand? If so, can you sell me some?"
Momo was a little unsure and asked, "Is there a place to change cornmeal?"
Zhao Damei motioned to Momo to be quieter, lowered her voice and said, "Yes, but secretly, I have been there a few times secretly, and it is very safe." ”
Momo suppressed her excitement, wondering if she could exchange some of them, although the exchange rate was half a catty less than that of the black market, but who would make it safe here!
Momo calculated carefully, removing the thirty catties in the back basket, there were still two hundred and fifty catties of rice left in the space, but Momo didn't plan to change the cornmeal, she was taking out fifty catties of rice at the top of the sky, if it was too much, it would be suspicious.
Wang Tiezhu saw that Momo was silent, and knew that there was a play, so he was not in a hurry.
Momo thought about her words before she spoke, "There are still fifty catties, all of which I bought with foreign exchange tickets, and I planned to mail them home." ”
As soon as Momo said this, Wang Tiezhu and Zhao Damei secretly said in their hearts, no wonder there is so much rice, Wang Tiezhu doesn't have much money in his hand, and thought about it, "How about I average my ten catties according to the market price?"
Momo happily responded, "Yes, but I want to ask Company Commander Wang for help to help me replace all the forty catties of rice with cornmeal, and the matter is done, I will give you ten catties of cornmeal." ”
"Momo, if you say that, won't you slap me in the face? Qingbai and I are brothers, and we should help, but I can't ask for cornmeal. ”
Momo has always believed in his brother's clear accounting, and he can't refuse: "Commander Wang, you have to accept it, this is a matter of principle for me to be a man, and I have to pay anyone I find, so don't postpone it." ”
Wang Tiezhu thought of his parents who were tightening their belts at home, and he couldn't say anything if he refused.
The three of them chatted and walked quickly, and they arrived at the fishing village in an hour.
Zhao Damei introduced, "This is a small fishing village, a total of 30 households, all of them are good at fishing, look at the second one, it is my family." ”
Momo looked at the past, three mud and grass houses, the yard was very regular, the vegetable field was full of vegetables, and there were a lot of fish hanging under the eaves.
Zhao Damei had already ventilated with her family, and the family received Momo very warmly, beckoning Momo to drink water and eat wild fruits.
Momo thanked her with a smile, and Zhao Damei couldn't wait to pull Zhao's father, "Dad, where is the fish?"
Father Zhao smiled, "Don't worry, wait for dinner." ”
Zhao Damei also felt that she was too anxious, and smiled embarrassedly at Momo, Momo came out with a watch today, glanced at the watch, and it was only half past eight, "Uncle, it's still early before the time to eat, let's change it first, everyone is down-to-earth." ”
Father Zhao thought about it for a while, "Okay, the boss will go and bring the fish in." ”
Boss Zhao responded excitedly, "Hey"
Boss Zhao quickly brought in a large bag of fish, opened it and handed it to Momo, Zhao's father took out a dried fish, "These are all dried by our own hands, looking at the translucent meat, take it back and eat it with confidence." ”
Momo took it and looked at it, "It's really good, uncle, you say a price." ”
Father Zhao rubbed his hands, "It's convenient for us to fish in the sea, the price is lower, don't want a ticket, I'll give you one catty, eight cents." ”
Momo asked about the price of non-staple food, and the non-staple food store asked for a ticket of six cents a catty, Zhao's father saw the lowest price given by Wang Tiezhu on face, Momo became in love, "Then you weigh it, how many catties are in total." ”
"This is already weighed, and a bag of fish weighs fifty catties. ”
Momo thought about the squid in her heart, "Uncle, do you have any sun-dried squid here?"
Father Zhao hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, but it's not much, only about twenty catties." ”
Momo's eyes lit up, "Can you sell it to me?"
"Yes, of course you can, but the squid is not easy to catch, and the price is expensive, two yuan a catty. ”
"I'll take it all, you see what other seafood there is besides fish. ”
Zhao Damei got up when she heard this, "Yes, yes, wait a minute, I'll get it." ”
When I was an hour, Momo bought 50 catties of air-dried fish, 20 catties of dried squid, 10 catties of dried shrimp, 20 catties of processed kelp, and 3 catties of seaweed, which cost Momo a total of 83 quick money.
Zhao's father gave Momo the lowest price, and the rice brought by Momo did not come according to the black market, according to the Zhao family of one piece of five pounds, thirty catties for a total of forty-five, and Momo filled in another thirty-eight yuan.
The Zhao family got the money, they were very happy, they were busy for an hour, and it was almost time to eat, so they hurriedly went to cook, the noon dish was the original seafood, it was steamed, and the foam was eaten, and the seafood that was not polluted was so fresh.
When he was about to arrive in D City, Momo asked Wang Tiezhu to put the fish in the grass and thanked him: "Company Commander Wang, go back, my godmother will come to pick me up later." ”
"No, I'll have to wait until you leave. ”
Momo raised her wrist and handed the watch to Wang Tiezhu to see, "It's already three o'clock, don't you still have to go home, don't worry, I'm fine, I'm saying that it's almost time to the city." ”
Wang Tiezhu looked at the city not far away, and there was nothing uneasy, "Okay, I'll go back first, and I'll see you here tomorrow morning." ”
"Yes. ”
Momo didn't feel relieved to enter the space until Wang Tiezhu turned downhill and couldn't see it at all, turned around and left with the basket on his back.
Today's harvest is so rich, Momo walks a lot more happily, and when she thinks that there will be ninety pounds of cornmeal tomorrow, she can't help but jump twice.
When she got home, Zhang Yuling hadn't come back yet, and Momo took out all the dried fish she had changed, planning to give half to her godmother.
Wang Tiezhu walked halfway, looked at the sky and estimated the time, and then suddenly reacted, he had seen the watch Momo brought.
At that time, he was looking for the battalion commander for a meeting, and he happened to see the watch on the table, and now it was on Momo's wrist, did it mean that the battalion commander had taken down Lian Momo?
The battalion commander is amazing, has he succeeded quietly? Lian Qingbai's kid must know, it's really not interesting, he is the last one to know, no, when he returns to the army, he must write a letter to Lian Qingbai, they are still not brothers after all.
