Chapter 658: Shopping
After listening to Li Xiaogang's analysis, Tian Qing couldn't help but have a picture in his mind, countless trucks, cars, and trains full of grain poured into S City from all directions across the country, and the grain completely submerged S City like a flood.
Tian Qing couldn't help but shudder fiercely. said: "Your worries are not unreasonable.
Nowadays, peasants have only one thought, that is, to immediately exchange the grain in their hands for money, and under such circumstances, it is indeed easy to lose their rationality.
But what can we do to get the food up without causing a stir? ”
Li Xiaogang said firmly: "I have thought about it, divide the entire S city into several districts, and acquire one district after another. There is a strict boundary between the two districts, and when Zone A buys, it will never accept grain from Zone B! When the time comes, ask the police to close the passage connecting the two districts, so that there will be no riots, and at the same time, there will be no backlog of grain due to too fast purchases. ”
Li Xiaogang's plan made Tian Qing's eyes light up, and he muttered: "Obediently, it seems that the whole city needs to be mobilized this time." I have to report to the municipal party committee to study and study, and try my best to find out a detailed and feasible implementation rules! But Mr. Li, there is another question, that is, your purchase price is 51 kilogram per piece, it will not change, right? ”
Li Xiaogang laughed and said, "It turns out that Director Tian is still worried about this? ”
Tian Qing smiled bitterly and said, "Don't worry, no!" Farmers care about this, and if they know that their own food is cheaper than what other people sell, they will not be able to sleep for days. The peasants can't sleep, and I, the director of the grain bureau, don't even have to think about sleeping! So in order for me to get a good night's sleep in the future, even if I am ashamed, I can only ask cheekily! ”
Li Xiaogang said with a smile: "Don't worry, this director!" I am also a farmer. Naturally, I don't want my peasant friends to suffer. A piece of five kilograms is a dead price, and it will not rise or fall! ”
Tian Qing's mouth immediately grinned, and he couldn't stop laughing.
He was happy for himself, and even more so for the peasants, yesterday he was worried about the grain that he couldn't get his hands on, but today he sold it at such a high price, Tian Qing couldn't help but feel like he was in a dream.
In addition to being excited, Tian Qing insisted on inviting Li Xiaogang to a light meal, and remembered that he would take Tian Rui to buy some things for school. Li Xiaogang finally politely declined, making Tian Qing seem not disappointed...... It was the old village chief who comforted him a few words to make him feel better.
Li Xiaogang and the old village chief took Tian Rui together and began to turn around the major shopping malls in the city.
Tian Rui seems to be a bird that has been released from its cage. I just feel that a qiē is all novel, like a curious baby looking around, and his eyes are a little overwhelmed.
Li Xiaogang was also born in the countryside, and when he saw Tian Rui, he immediately remembered the first time he entered the city, that feeling. Shock. Bewilderment, novelty. The excitement was mixed up and he still remembers it vividly.
Tian Rui is lucky. She got into college as she wished, and met herself before she was forced to drop out, but what about other children in the same situation as her. Wouldn't they be so lucky? Thinking of the rural areas across the country, I don't know how many peasant children are still facing the fate of dropping out of school because they can't make up the tuition fees, Li Xiaogang's heart is a little heavy.
According to a survey, the annual expenses of a city family to support a college student are about 50 percent of the family's annual income, but in a rural family, the ratio even reaches 300 percent.
Of course, at the beginning of the reform and opening up, under the call of the central government, the peasants gave up their own interests and supported the construction of the city regardless of the power of gains and losses.
Today's cities are rising from the ground and prospering, and the pockets of city residents are swelling day by day.
Now that it is time for the city to support the countryside and give back to the countryside, what is the expression of the people in the city? Li Xiaogang remembered the cold, contemptuous eyes when he threw himself at the peasants, and Li Xiaogang's heart was slightly chilled.
The three of them had been shopping for a long time, but Tian Rui didn't buy anything, and her expression was no longer as full of joy as when she first came, but her brows were tightly knit and a little more worried.
Li Xiaogang was a little puzzled, and began to observe Tian Rui, only to find that whenever she saw a commodity, Tian Rui would be eager to see its price first, and after seeing it, her brows would often wrinkle, think for a moment, then shake her head, and walk forward.
Li Xiaogang felt sour in his heart when he saw it, it turned out that this child was too expensive.
But the things in this shopping mall naturally can't be compared with the ones in the market, according to Tian Rui's like this, don't want to buy sincere things today.
"Tian Rui, what are you going to buy today, did you make a list?" Li Xiaogang asked with a smile.
Tian Rui nodded and said, "En." As she spoke, she handed Li Xiaogang a piece of paper in her hand that was about to be crumpled by her.
Li Xiaogang took it and took a look, and what was written on it were some of the most commonly used things, each of which was indispensable in life.
Li Xiaogang smiled and said, "Rui Rui, it's not good for you to buy anything aimlessly. Let's go, now big brother will help you buy it! ”
After speaking, he didn't care whether Rui Ruitong agreed or not, and strode forward.
First came to a store to buy bags, Li Xiaogang swept his eyes, swept a pink pulley bag, and pointed to the shopkeeper and said, "I'll buy that!" ”
"Don't, that's too expensive......" Tian Rui swept the price of the suitcase, all the money on her body was not enough to pay for this box, and immediately subconsciously stopped Li Xiaogang and said: "My mother said, you don't need to buy one with wheels, just buy a sturdy one that can be carried!" ”
Li Xiaogang said: "You are a girl, and you bring so many things, how will you get to school when the time comes?" You don't have to worry about money, since my brother said to buy it for you, you don't have to pay a penny. ”
"How's that going to work? You bought our family's rice and gave me so much money, which already makes us very grateful, we can't let you break the bank any more......" Tian Rui was extremely sensible, and the words he said were even more heartwarming.
Such a good girl, if she lived in the city, she would definitely be the pearl of the family's palm, but in the countryside, looking at Tian Rui's simple clothes, and then looking at the shopkeeper beside her, when her eyes swept to Tian Rui, she unconsciously swept through the contempt in the depths of her eyes, Li Xiaogang's heart was faintly painful.
"Ruirui, there is a little secret between us now, and we need to keep it together, would you like to?" Li Xiaogang looked at Tian Rui and said very seriously.
Tian Rui nodded in a daze, and asked with confusion, "What little secret?" ”
Li Xiaogang shook the list in his hand and said: "I will buy all the things on this list today, as a gift I gave you to celebrate your admission to college, but you are not allowed to let your mother know, put away the money your mother gave you, and when you get to school, buy something you like to eat, like to use, as pocket money, okay?" ”
If you want to say that Tian Rui is not moved by Li Xiaogang's mentions, it is fake.
The word pocket money has always belonged only to urban children, and peasant children do not talk about pocket money, even the necessary expenses need to be very difficult to get.
Seeing Tian Rui's eyes flashing with excitement, Li Xiaogang smiled and said, "Then it's decided!" Hehe...... "Li Xiaogang doesn't know why, he has a strong urge to take care of Tian Rui, and always wants to give her all the best things.
Every time he thinks about it, Li Xiaogang feels that he may want to have a sister too much, or he sees the shadow of his past from Tian Rui's body. Shopping is joyful, especially when you put aside the shackles of money.
Tian Rui is like a happy flower butterfly in the shopping mall, running around, making Li Xiaogang and the old village chief look at each other and smile bitterly, if there is still a little similarity between the girls in the city and the girls in the countryside, it should be that they both have the same ability to make gay men desperate for shopping.
Fortunately, the things were almost bought, Li Xiaogang stuffed all the things into the beautiful pink bag one by one, and while dragging it, he looked at Tian Rui, who was walking in front of him, laughing constantly, and a huge sense of satisfaction surged in his heart.
At this moment, Tian Rui suddenly stopped, and Li Xiaogang noticed that something seemed to be going on in front of him, and a large crowd of people had gathered.
It's really sad to see the bad roots of being busy and not afraid of big things, and even a pure and immaculate child like Tian Rui can't avoid it.
Li Xiaogang sighed and posted it too.
Tian Rui, who suddenly heard it, exclaimed from the crowd, "Zhao Qian, why are you!?" ”
As soon as Li Xiaogang heard Tian Rui's voice, he immediately realized what was happening, and immediately handed the box to the old village chief, and then regardless of the dissatisfied shouts of the onlookers, he pulled away from the crowd and squeezed to the core.
Li Xiaogang stared at it and saw that Tian Rui was about to reach out to pull a girl of her age who was kneeling on the ground.
The girls in the south really deserve the good name of Xiuling, first a Tian Rui, and then a Zhao Qian, all of them are the kind of condensed natural aura, although they are still young, but they have already shown a beautiful little beauty. In front of Zhao Qian, there was a paper shell full of big characters.
Li Xiaogang read it carefully, and he couldn't help but feel an inexplicable sadness in his heart, this is another poor rural female college student who is willing to give up her dignity for tuition.
The father ran away from home irresponsibly, leaving only the mother with schizophrenia, and the girl in front of her had to take on the responsibility of the family with her immature shoulders, and at the same time she could be admitted to university.
Li Xiaogang suddenly felt that his poor childhood was nothing compared to her. (To be continued.) (。 ))
