Chapter 12: All Rejoice
"Thirty yuan!" This time even Zhou Yuanchao couldn't help but be taken aback, you must know that in eighty-three years, a worker's monthly salary was only seventeen or eighteen yuan to twenty-two or three yuan, like in their post office, the average clerk's monthly salary was only twenty yuan, even he, the deputy director, all kinds of allowances together, a total of only twenty-five or six yuan, this child actually had to buy thirty yuan with one mouth. A monkey ticket costs eight cents, and thirty yuan is enough to buy nearly four hundred. For the Haizhuang Town Post Office, this is the amount of stamps in the past three or four days during the non-New Year's Festival.
"Are you buying it for the factory?" Zhou Yuanchao asked Fang Bin. Judging from their dress and temperament, these two people are definitely not farmers, and if they don't have this bit of eyesight, he won't be able to sit in the position of deputy director. If it is a public procurement, it is nothing. But in this Haizhuang town, the only one that can really be regarded as a factory is Qinxi Rolling Equipment Factory. However, Zhou Yuanchao has been here for more than half a year, and Qinxi Calendering Equipment Factory has not bought stamps here, and their stamps are delivered to the door by the county post office.
However, apart from public procurement, how could anyone buy so many stamps? Zhou Yuanchao was a little puzzled.
A wry smile appeared on Fang Bin's face, as soon as he heard Fang Mingyuan shouting for at least thirty yuan, he knew that this kid had hit his mind on himself. "Director Zhou, where did you come from, what kind of factory, for personal use. ”
"For personal use?" Zhou Yuanchao is even more strange, if nearly 400 stamps are used for personal use, they will not be used up for ten years, how can they buy so much.
"Uncle Zhou, when do you need to qualify for buying stamps?" Fang Mingyuan was now anxious, and he couldn't wait to put these monkey tickets in his pocket. Relying on the fact that he is just a child now, he is embarrassed to talk to some Zhou Yuanchao, so he urges in a series of ways. Zhou Yuanchao shook his head, this is really a strange thing every year, and this year it is my turn. He really saw such a child for the first time in his life. If you don't see it with your own eyes, who can believe that a six or seven-year-old child can actually talk to him in an adult voice.
Since Fang Mingyuan insisted on buying it, Zhou Yuanchao naturally had no reason not to sell. Moreover, the one-time purchase of a stamp of 30 yuan is also a serious amount of money for an individual in 83 years. It is not an exaggeration to receive Zhou Yuanchao personally. Zhou Yuanchao let Fang Bin and the others into his office. And the eldest sister Dong took another clerk to the warehouse to look for monkey tickets.
"Since you're going to buy so much, it's a bit out of place on the counter outside. Wait here, the stamps will be available soon. It's just that the weather is relatively hot, and I don't have anything good to entertain the two of you here, so let's drink saliva first. "In this day and age, there weren't any paper cups to use. Zhou Yuanchao could only wash his cup carefully, scald it with hot water, poured a glass of water, and handed it to Fang Bin.
"Uncle Zhou, you're welcome, we're down to business! It's done, can I invite you to eat popsicles?" Fang Mingyuan said with a smile. As long as things can be done, let alone inviting Zhou Yuanchao to eat a popsicle, or inviting everyone at the post office to eat a popsicle, Fang Mingyuan has no opinion. And Fang Mingyuan also realized that if this one was won over, he might be able to get monkey tickets from other post offices in Pingchuan County. This is the channel for him to buy monkey tickets in the future.
"This kid's mouth is so sweet!" Zhou Yuanchao praised with a smile, but this time, he didn't reach out to touch Fang Mingyuan's head.
"No, our family's treasure. My dad and my grandmother treat him like a little ancestor, and he is really afraid of falling in his hands, and he is afraid of melting in his mouth. Fang Bin said with a smug face.
Zhou Yuanchao smiled knowingly and said: "Haha, this is normal, the same is true of the torturer in my family, the old man is in great pain." However, if he can be as smart as your little nephew, I will treat him as a treasure!"
While speaking, Sister Dong had already walked in with the clerk holding a stack of stamps, and Fang Mingyuan immediately greeted him with a light in his eyes, full-page, four-square, single, all kinds of things. Together, there are nearly a thousand. Fang Mingyuan's heart immediately blossomed, this god treats himself well.
"Uncle, how much money do you have on you?" Fang Mingyuan said unceremoniously.
"What are you doing?" Fang Bin covered his wallet and said with a wary expression. Since Fang Bin made money in small business, the two have often teased each other like this, and today Fang Bin did it reflexively.
"Rob, don't move! Raise your hands all! Men stand on the left, women stand on the right, no men and no women stand in the middle!" Fang Mingyuan suddenly remembered the joke he had seen in the future, and couldn't help but shout out.
The "......" office immediately turned the sky upside down. Everyone laughed forward and backwards, the teacup in Fang Bin's hand shook like duckweed in the wind, and half of the cup of water contributed to the ground. Zhou Yuanchao covered his stomach and sat on the chair smiling and slapped his thighs. The two of them were also smiling from ear to ear, only Fang Mingyuan stared at the stamps in their hands as if they were facing a great enemy, for fear of a mistake. Then he still has to cry to death, how can he remember to play at this time!
"Hahahaha, this kid...... Even men and women know it!" Zhou Yuanchao gasped a little, laughing a little too much, and his little stomach hurt a little.
Fang Bin coughed dryly twice, and then he could barely hold back a smile and said, "You kid, where did you learn this, it's a mess." ”
He rummaged through his pocket, took out all the money in it, and stuffed it all to Fang Mingyuan. "Take it all, take it all, save you from thinking about it all day, it's good that I didn't drink water just now, otherwise I wouldn't have choked. In the future, don't talk nonsense while I'm drinking water and eating. ”
Fang Mingyuan counted it, and there were twenty-three yuan, seven corners and eight points. He took the piggy bank out of his bosom and poured out all the money inside. "Uncle Zhou, you order a little, I will buy all this money for monkey tickets. Buy the full page first, if the money is not enough, you will have to connect the four directions, and when it is not enough, you will have a single piece!" After saying that, he thought about it again, took out three cents from the money, and put it back in his pocket.
It didn't take long for Zhou Yuanchao and Sister Dong to calculate the number of stamps Fang Mingyuan deserved, and then specially found a bag, put these stamps in it, and handed them to Fang Bin. Fang Mingyuan looked at the table, there were still a lot, his eyes rolled, and he pulled Zhou Yuanchao's hand and said coquettishly: "Uncle Zhou, can you help me keep these stamps, I'll go back and scrape together money to buy them, okay?"
Zhou Yuanchao groaned slightly, this requirement is nothing, ordinary people buy stamps are to send letters, only care about the value, will not care about what is bought. There are many other stamps in the warehouse, and it doesn't matter if these monkey stamps are not sold for the time being. What's more, Fang Bin and the others bought stamps of nearly fifty yuan, which is also a big customer, and he can still call the shots at this cheap. And for Fang Mingyuan, he likes it from the bottom of his heart now, so he happily agreed to help Fang Mingyuan save it until the end of the year. Fang Mingyuan was so happy that he was jumping and jumping, there were still almost five months before the end of the year, and he believed that he would be able to scrape together enough money to buy all these monkey tickets.
Zhou Yuanchao kept sending the two out of the post office before returning to the office. But within three minutes, Fang Mingyuan's little head came in through the crack in the door, and Zhou Yuanchao asked with a smile, "Little friend, what's the matter?"
Fang Mingyuan walked in with his hands behind his back, and walked in front of Zhou Yuanchao, only then did he suddenly put a popsicle in Zhou Yuanchao's hand, and then turned around and ran. By the time Zhou Yuanchao reacted and chased him out, Fang Mingyuan and Fang Bin had already gone away. When he turned around, he saw that the clerk in the post office was each holding a popsicle.
"Zhou, take it, the young man just said that people can't be untrustworthy, since the kid said that he wanted to invite everyone to popsicles, then he must do it. Sister Dong sighed, "This family's tutoring is really good, whether it is adults or children, it is really polite." ”
Zhou Yuanchao nodded, looked at the popsicle in his hand that had melted a little, took a bite hard, and said secretly in his heart: "Little guy, I remember you!"
