The house is also a fire kang, and the furnishings are just as simple, just a few kinds of wooden furniture. What caught the fat man's eye was a semiconductor on the table, and then there were two photo frames on the wall, inlaid with large and small black and white photos.

Sit down on a bench with a small coffee table in front of you. The eldest girl made a pot of tea, smothered for a few minutes, and then poured three cups.

"Hehe, you can drink tea here with my brother." Wang Sanpao picked up the teacup, regardless of the heat, and took a big sip. He has a straightforward temperament, not restrained at all, and on the way to the fat man heard him say that this man is one of his uncles and brothers.

The fat man picked up the teacup, sniffed it slightly under his nose, the fragrance was full, and then took a sip, the aroma was strong and vulgar, and he couldn't help but praise it.

In this era, there are no fakes, they are all real things, real goods.

The man didn't talk much, but mainly asked about life in the mountains, especially about the implementation of the household contract responsibility system for the production team.

Wang Sanpao didn't hide it at all: "Brother, now I have enough energy, the land is my own land, and I want to fight as much food as I want, who doesn't play with his life." ”

The fat man looked at the photo frame vigorously, there was a picture in it wearing a military uniform, full of heroic spirit, and the words "Commemoration of the Triumph of Resisting US Aggression and Aiding Korea" were written below, looking at the photo of the man when he was young, he couldn't help but be in awe: it turned out to be a combat hero to resist US aggression and aid Korea.

When I was a child, I was always influenced by my father, and the fat man admired the most was the volunteers who defeated the American devils. Whether it was the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression or the War of Liberation, there was no momentum to resist US aggression and aid Korea.

The other is a girl's, there are five or six from childhood to adulthood, and the fat man is fascinated by it, when he hears the man shout in a raised voice; "The imperial grain is so good, huh."

Immediately after that, the big girl's voice came: "Of course the imperial grain is good." ”

The fat man wondered in his heart: Why did it get on me, is it okay? So he hurriedly stood up and said modestly: "Hehe, in fact, I really don't have anything good." ”

After saying that, he saw that everyone else in the room was staring at him, and then laughed together, and the fat man couldn't help but be inexplicable, so he had to laugh along.

"I forgot that Xiao Huang's name is Huang Liang, I mean this girl, I have to ask me to find her a unit to eat imperial grain, eat iron rice bowls, misunderstanding." The man smiled and explained to the fat man.

The fat man finally understood, couldn't help touching the back of his head, and laughed a few times: "It's okay, it's me who is messing around." ”

was stirred up by the fat man, and the atmosphere gradually relaxed, although the fat man couldn't interject, but he didn't like it, and he squeaked and drank happily.

After drinking a sweat, the fat man decided that when he sold ginseng, he would definitely buy a few taels of tea.

After a while, it was dark, and the eldest girl turned on the electric light, and the room was bright. The fat man didn't think anything of it, but Wang Sanpao sighed repeatedly: "When will we be able to install electric lights in Tun." ”

After chatting for more than an hour, before leaving, the middle-aged woman went to the back room and took out a few tickets and handed them to the fat man: "Xiao Huang, this is pig money, don't be too little." ”

The fat man had a good impression of the family, and besides, the wild boar cubs came for nothing, so he pushed it off. Wang Sanpao took it: "If you take it, my brother can't have the reputation of accepting gifts casually." Even if I send him some mountain goods, I will give you the same money - forget it, I'll put it on for you first. ”

After saying that, he stuffed the money into his pocket, and the fat man couldn't go up and beg for nothing.

Walking out of the door, the fat man didn't remember at all, Wang Sanpao often went to the city to sell mountain goods, so he was quite familiar with the door, and led the way in front.

"Uncle Sanpao, is your old brother an official?" The fat man asked because of the problem of receiving gifts.

"Well, my old brother is terrible, he participated in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, he was a blocker, his marksmanship was more accurate than mine, I fought wild animals, and the people he killed were all American soldiers. * When he was imprisoned in the cowshed, he was rehabilitated the year before last, and now he is the secretary of our county. ”

"Secretary? The secretary of that department? ”

"Of course it'********."

The fat man felt that his brain was a little short-circuited, and he couldn't believe it anyway, the ordinary and shabby place just now was the ******** family, and he refused to arrange a job for his daughter.

Different is different, the fat man sighed again, such cadres are real servants of the people.

Back at the big car shop, the residence is a large board shop, with men on the left and women on the right, separated by a curtain in the middle. Most of the residents have already laid down, but they have not slept, lying on their pillows and chatting.

Only the little guy Qiqi fell asleep, his little face flushed with sleep, and he turned his head and made gestures. The fat man put her arms and legs back in place, only to realize that the little one was still holding something in his hand.

When you break it open, you can see that it is two shiny horseshoe nails. The fat man shook his head and tucked her under the pillow.

Before he took off his clothes, the fat man went to sleep on the kang, pressed the wooden box under the pillow, and in a swirling smoke mixed with the smell of his feet, the fat man soon fell asleep with his arms.

After breakfast, the group was led by the boss of the car to kill the local products purchase department, because it was the busy agricultural season, there were few people in the purchase department, an old clerk squatted on the ground to pick pig bristles, and a young girl was pulling an abacus at the counter, and another male clerk was greeting a customer who sold skins.

There is a lot of space in the acquisition department, but there are not many goods, and it is estimated that they will be dumped to the warehouse while collecting.

"What does it smell like?" Xiao Qiqi wrinkled his little nose and muttered, the local product acquisition department was filled with a smell of sulfur and saltpeter, all of which were used to process skins.

The old clerk raised his head when he heard the sound, immediately straightened his waist, and smiled heartily: "Wang Sanpao, Boss Li, rare and rare." As he spoke, he looked at them, and saw that Wang Sanpao was only carrying a pigskin, and his eyes showed disappointment.

The customer who sold the skin also came over and had a few words with Wang Sanpao, all of which were hunting matters, and it seemed that he was also a frequent round-up.

The old clerk unfolded the wild boar skin, and finally showed a smile on his face: "It's a big skin, there is no injury at all, brother of the three guns, your marksmanship has improved." ”

"Yes-" Wang Sanpao was about to show off the fat man's exploits, but when he saw the fat man waving his hand, he swallowed back what he wanted to say, and said: "Old Wangtou, take a good look, don't deliberately press and wait, this skin must be enough for first-class goods." ”

The old clerk squinted, turned back and forth on several people, and then smiled, and straightened his beard with his hands: "What else is good, don't ambush me." ”

"You old fox, little yellow, take out the mallet for him." The car boss scolded with a smile.

The fat man held the wooden box in his hand, and with a thought, he brought out the two old ginseng trees. Then unfold the box, take out the ginseng and carefully place it on the counter.

The old clerk took out his reading glasses from his jacket pocket, and then lay on the counter to study, and the other two clerks also came over, and the hunter who sold the leather was very envious, and he chirped: "These two mallets are old enough, and we haven't had mallets for several years on the mountain." ”

The old clerk took off his reading glasses, his cheeks were a little red, and his eyes were full of anger: "Who dug this mallet, the roots are broken, and the long hands are gone!" ”

"Don't be angry, grandpa, I dug it." Qiqi knows how to respect the old man very well, and he talks to the old man pitifully with his little face up.

Bang, the reading glasses in the old clerk's hand fell to the ground, but fortunately there was the wild boar skin in front of it, and the lenses were not broken after two times on it.

"Old Wangtou, are you dumbfounded, give me an estimate, what price can you sell?" The car owner blinked and picked up his glasses from the pigskin.

"How about this first-class product in good condition, and the other tree being second-class?" The old clerk is finally back to normal.

The fat man didn't know how to do it at all, so he had to look at the other two companions. Wang Sanpao and the car boss nodded together, which seemed to be fairer.

The old clerk took out a small yellow scale, which was only the size of a palm, very delicate, and then put two mallets over the scales.

Then the female clerk with two pigtails crackled for a while, and quoted the price crisply: "A total of four hundred and fifty-five yuan." ”

"Yikes!" Except for the fat man and Qiqi, everyone else exclaimed, even the female clerk who settled the accounts herself. Kiki mainly has not established values yet, and the fat man does not have a very specific understanding of the current currency.

More than 400 yuan, that is, the oldest clerk, a year's salary is less than this amount.
