Chapter 025: The Pine Nut Business
In front of Guhe Railway Station, it is the most prosperous and lively place in Guhe City at night, and the railway traffic of Guhe extends in all directions, and it is the intersection of Liaogu Line, Gusong Line, Lingu Line, and Guping Line Railway. There are many restaurants and inns in front of the station, which are open day and night, receiving tourists from all directions, and the square in front of the station is a large number of vendors selling grilled fish, tea eggs and various foods, and at the same time, a large number of hooligans and ruffians and idle unemployed people are gathered.
As soon as it got dark, it began to be lively, Xiao Yuanhang and Jiang Shan came to the station by scooter and found a relatively clean grilled fish stall and sat down. At first, Jiang Shan was a little disagreeing to come to the front of the station, saying that the front station was too chaotic, but Xiao Yuanhang didn't have this feeling, he often came back from the car in the middle of the night to eat in front of the station, everyone was familiar, and he didn't have to worry about anything at all.
Xiao Yuanhang asked about the price, and it was the same as the memory of his previous life, grilled fish for 3 dimes a piece, tea eggs for 2 dimes a piece, beer for 1 yuan a bottle, and 3 dimes for returning the bottle was removed, which was 7 dimes a bottle. So he asked for 4 grilled fish, 6 tea eggs and two bottles of beer, the tea eggs were boiled in advance, put on the stove to heat, he picked 6 darker colors, so that the boiling time is longer, and the salt can go in. Back in the seat, he and Jiang Shan ate tea eggs to fill their hungry stomachs first, and the grilled fish had to be freshly baked, and they had to wait for a while.
At this time, Furukawa didn't have kebabs or anything, and the barbecue was limited to grilled fish. The fish is dried mentai fish, soaked in water until soft, and then brushed with seasonings such as butter chili noodles and shishi, which is very delicious. Xiao Yuanhang had a deep memory of grilled fish in his previous life, and he proposed to come here to eat grilled fish when he was interested.
The steaming and fragrant grilled fish was brought up, Xiao Yuanhang carefully tore off one and tasted it, the same taste as in the memory of his previous life, excitedly opened the beer, poured it for Jiang Shan and himself, the two touched their glasses, and after each took a sip of beer, they began to deal with the grilled fish. This is the first time he has eaten grilled fish since he was reborn, and it feels very fragrant, and he will destroy one in a short time!
Looking up at Jiang Shan, who hadn't even eaten half of it, Xiao Yuanhang explained a little embarrassedly: "I haven't eaten grilled fish for a long time, and I feel very fragrant today!" ”
Jiang Shan didn't know that Xiao Yuanhang was lamenting that the past life and this life were so far away, he just thought that he hadn't eaten grilled fish for a while, smiled and said: "Me too, I haven't eaten grilled fish for about a year, I remember that the last time I started school last summer was last summer, I went to Binhai and ate one while waiting for the train at the station!" ”
"Ha, then eat more!" Xiao Yuanhang said and turned to the stall owner and said, "Boss, bring me two more grilled fish!" ”
"Okay!" The boss just didn't have much money on the stall when he met a big customer like Xiao Yuanhang, he was very excited, and happily agreed, and quickly took two soaked dried fish, brushed the seasoning and put it on the oven, and a strong green smoke rose with a "zila" sound.
Before Jiang Shan could stop it, the grilled fish had already been put on the oven. I had to say to Xiao Yuanhang: "You want you to eat, I can't eat so much!" ”
Xiao Yuanhang smiled and said, "No problem, I have a good appetite today!" ”
At this time, there are not many people in the square in front of the station, and it is the peak at about 10 o'clock in the evening, so there are not many customers on the stall, and it is sparse, Xiao Yuanhang came with Jiang Shan after all, he feels that this is good, and it is more quiet.
"Second brother, why did you come here to eat grilled fish?" Wang Dahai took a few little brothers and walked over from a small restaurant in front of the station, and saw Xiao Yuanhang and Jiang Shan sitting here eating grilled fish at a glance, and walked a few steps forward to say hello.
", why can't I come here and eat grilled fish!" Xiao Yuanhang saw Wang Dahai staring at the grilled fish in his hand with a greedy face, and scolded with a smile. …,
"No, no! Second brother, I didn't mean that, I mean to say, the second brother is so in the mood to eat grilled fish! Wang Dahai hurriedly explained with a shy face.
Xiao Yuanhang glanced at Wang Dahai and said, "Okay, don't play tricks with me here, sit down, you want to eat whatever you want!" ”
"Hehe, you're welcome!" Wang Dahai sat next to Xiao Yuanhang, turned his head and said to the stall owner: "Bring me two grilled fish and a bottle of beer!" ”
The four little brothers who came with him stood aside and didn't dare to come over, and the second brother was also familiar with them, but the second brother didn't say to invite them, and they could only watch from there, smelling the aroma of the grilled fish, their throats flashed, and their saliva could only be swallowed in their stomachs!
Xiao Yuanhang beckoned to them and said, "Big country, you all come here, one person, one grilled fish, one bottle of beer, go and ask for it yourself!" ”
"Second Brother Xie Lu!" When the big country and others heard it, they immediately ran over happily, nodded and thanked them, and beckoned the stall owner to give them grilled fish and beer, the stall owner is not familiar with Xiao Yuanhang, but it does not mean that he is not familiar with Wang Dahai and others who often haunt the station, and he knows that these people are people who stretch out their hands when they say they fight, and they can't be provoked at all, so they are more and more polite, and the grilled fish is picked and given!
Xiao Yuanhang asked: "Dahai, why did you come to the station so early, I remember that you all came here to play at 10 o'clock in the evening?" ”
Wang Dahai said: "Lao Wu asked me to help him take the station, now there are fewer and fewer people from the ditch to bring pine seeds, he is afraid that he will not be able to receive the goods, so I asked me to bring a few brothers to help, promised to give us some money, we have nothing to do at home, so we came early." ”
"How come there are special ones with pine seeds?" Furukawa is the largest kernel processing and distribution center in the three eastern provinces, and there are many people who have made a fortune from the nut business, and at this time the climate has been formed, and Japanese merchants mainly import nuts from Furukawa, mainly pine nuts and pecan kernels. Therefore, the pine seed business of Guhe is very active, Xiao Yuanhang is very aware of the development of the nut industry, and when he heard Wang Dahai's words, he asked with great interest.
Wang Dahai said: "According to Lao Wu and me, the price of pine seeds in the Guhe market has now reached 5 yuan 5 or 6 per catty, and the price is still rising, while the pine seeds in Linquan are only more than 3 yuan a catty, but the forestry and border control there are very strict, and there is no formal formalities to transport them at all." So there are special people who take the train to this side to bring pine seeds to earn money, the fifth basically comes to the station every day to buy pine seeds from these people, and then changes hands to make money, from their hands to take 1 pound can earn more than 1 yuan! ”
He took a sip of beer and said: "I don't know how this news was known by the people of the Furukawa Forestry Bureau, they send people to the station every day to intercept these people, and once they are caught, they will confiscate them unceremoniously." After suffering a few big losses, these people did not dare to come again. But there are still brave people, they choose to take the train to Guhe at night, and at this time there are few people from the Forestry Bureau to check here, and sometimes they don't come at all. However, there are many people who come to pick up the station, and the fifth child is afraid that he will not be able to receive it, so he asked me to bring my brothers to help him! ”
"Oh!" Xiao Yuanhang nodded thoughtfully after hearing this. In his previous life, Xiao Yuanhang had not been in contact with the nut business, and he didn't know much about this line, and he didn't know that the road from Linquan to Guhe was only more than 600 kilometers, and the difference in the price of pine seeds was so big, you should know that 2 yuan was almost enough for an ordinary person's family to spend a day's living expenses, and this was only the difference in the price of 1 pound of pine seeds!
Looks like I'm going to have to do some research on the pine seed business......
