Chapter 13 Pallet Trucks

It seems that it is really a catastrophe and there will be a blessing if you don't die, Liu Yong led Yingying to the side of the road and waited for the carriage to come.

Without waiting for Liu Yong to stop the car, the carriage stopped by itself, and it was a flatbed truck pulling goods. The driver was an old man, dressed in gray linen clothes. The old man looked at the gray-faced Liu Yong and Yingying and smiled, and the wrinkles of the ditch and the ditch bloomed like chrysanthemums on that swarthy face.

"Lang Jun, is this a ride?" The old man asked.

Liu Yong arched his hand like the ancients, and said in a low voice: "Exactly, the old man is bothered to give our uncle and nephew a ride." While saying, he was still boasting in his heart, "How is it?" I'm okay with the tone of the ancients! ”

"Oh, Lang Jun, where are you going?" The old man asked.

"It's going to Meizhou City." Liu Yong replied.

"Okay, I'm just going to the Lijia Village Market in front to buy some goods, so let's get in the car." The old man looked righteous.

"Uncle, I don't have any money for a car." Liu Yong's words were not said casually, this was a new consciousness in his mind. If according to him in later generations, since people have agreed, then they think that they are helping to do good deeds, and how much money is needed? Don't you know that there is no such thing as a free lunch? With a new consciousness in his head, he is not simple.

Sure enough, as soon as Liu Yong's words fell, the chrysanthemum on the old man's face suddenly turned into a cold ditch beam.

"No money?" The old man pouted, "Then what kind of car are you taking?" As he spoke, he raised his whip in his hand. The righteous energy just now drifted away like a skin through the water.

"Slow down, old man." Liu Yong hurriedly stopped, this was the first carriage he had seen in a day, and he didn't want to miss it like this.

The old man put away his horsewhip and smiled slightly, but his eyes looked at Liu Yong coldly. He saw that although Liu Yong and Yingying were covered with dust on their clothes, they were also silk clothes and satin pants, and they didn't look like they were owners with no money. So, he wanted to hear what Liu Yong had to say.

Liu Yongxiao asked, "Uncle, I heard you say that you are going to a market, right?" ”

"It's the Lijia Village Market." The old man reminded Liu Yong.

"Then there's money down there." Liu Yong laughed.

Seeing Liu Yong smiling very happily, he looked confident, which made the old man frown. He asked, "What, you have acquaintances in the Lijia Village Market?" ”

Liu Yong shook his head.

"And where do you go to get the money?" The old man looked Liu Yong up and down in surprise to see if he had any valuable goods on him, and deliberately looked at Liu Yong's five fingers to see if there was a ring or something, but he didn't find anything. He frowned again.

"Uncle, let me ask you, is the bazaar you said big?" Liu Yong asked.

"Well, it should be the largest in ten miles and eight villages." Although the old man replied, his face was unshaving.

"Okay, I'll ask the old man, how much does it cost to take your car to the market?" Liu Yong asked.

"It's a hundred and fifty dollars." The old man stretched out five fingers like dead branches.

"Okay, one hundred and fifty is one hundred and fifty, Yingying, let's get in the car." As he spoke, he carried Yingying into the carriage.

When the old man saw it, he quickly stretched out his arm to stop him, "Hey, who let you get in the car?" ”

"Uncle, didn't I agree to one hundred and fifty wen?" Liu Yong said on his lips, but he thought in his heart: "Why did you meet such an old money fan?" But it's okay, there's nothing wrong with liking money. I'm going to fight him. ”

"But what about the money?" The old man stretched out his hand in front of Liu Yong's eyes.

Liu Yong smiled and said, "Uncle, when you get to the market, I'll give you one hundred and fifty wen, a lot of money." ”

"Oh, do you want to take the car first and then give the money?" The old man retracted his hand and looked at Liu Yong with disdain.

Liu Yongdao: "Why not? Take a taxi with us......" He wanted to say that the taxi is paid only when he arrives at the place, but after thinking about it, he stopped talking when he said that the old man didn't understand.

"I don't have that rule, if you want to take the car, you have to take the money first, otherwise I'll leave." The old man didn't want to fight with Liu Yong anymore haha.

"Something else, uncle. I know you're afraid that I won't have any money to give you when I get there, but if you think about it, you can go with an empty car, and you will go with my uncle and nephew, even if I don't have any money to give you, you won't have any loss. But I'm not the one who pays the bills, and I promise to give you the money for the car. Even if you don't believe it, there's at least half a hope. That's a hundred and fifty dollars! Liu Yong also stretched out five fingers, in fact, he didn't know how much the one hundred and fifty yuan was. But his purpose was achieved, for the old man's sparse eyebrows furrowed and groaned.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Liu Yong and Yingying got into the car.

"Uncle, don't think about it, let's go, I promise to give you money." Liu Yong urged again, his purpose was very clear, that is, to let the old man not have too much time to think. The old man really hit the trick and said, "That's good, what you said, don't lie to me." ”

Liu Yong patted the old man's shoulder and smiled: "Well, I said, let's go, it's time to break up if you delay going to the market any longer." ”

"Hey, it's not, I'm going to talk around my tongue with you, ......" The old man was really a little anxious. The old horse raised his front hooves and trotted.

Seeing the anxious old man, Liu Yong smiled and shook his head, and then looked at Yingying, who was happily closing his mouth. You must know that at a young age, she has already had a strong resistance to walking after walking this day. At this time, when he got into the carriage, the child was naturally very happy.

Liu Yong asked her if she was hungry, and Yingying nodded with a smile on her face. At this time, the child really felt happy, and a pair of big eyes stared at Liu Yong deeply, and his eyes were full of worship and joy. Liu Yong untied the three grilled fish hanging on his waist, took out one and wiped the dust on it with grass for Yingying to eat. Eat one for yourself.

The two of them ate the charred grilled fish while admiring the splendor of the surrounding plains. Liu Yong's later life lived in the mountains, and the mountains were everywhere in his eyes, and such endless plains like the sea were new to him. At this time, the sky was already bright, the light blue sky seemed to be much clearer than in later generations, and the air seemed to be sweeter. After all, there was no industrial pollution in ancient times. When I thought that I was in the Song Dynasty nearly a thousand years ago, my heart set off infinite reverie. In the future, he will not only start a business here, but also marry a wife and have children here. When I think of the delicate and intimate beauty of the ancient beauties, my heart bubbles with beauty. In fact, he has also seen beauties, Li Xinniang and Yun'er are out-and-out ancient beauties. What's more, there is a little beauty sitting next to her. Looking at the fragrance of Xiao Yingying's food, Liu Yong couldn't help but touch her head.

Despite this, Liu Yong is still a little reluctant to live in the future, there are still things he cherishes, such as computers, the Internet, all kinds of entertainment, cars, planes, endless daily necessities, and the most important thing is that he is still a fan, and when he arrives here, he can no longer see the games of his favorite team.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel a little sad, but as soon as I saw this blue sky and breathed the sweet air, I got the full consciousness of my idol again. Think about it again, in this life and this life, you can still live the life of the ancients, and see what the world was like thousands of years ago, isn't this also a beautiful thing?

Liu Yong's face changed from melancholy to joy again, clicked, tore off a large piece of fish meat and chewed it fragrantly.

The old man who was driving the car couldn't help but swallow when he saw Liu Yong and Yingying eating fragrantly. Secretly saw that Liu Yong still had a grilled fish hanging from his waist, so he couldn't help but ask: "I said Lang Jun, I was in a hurry to leave in the morning and didn't eat, can you give me a grilled fish to eat too?" ”

Liu Yongdao: "Yes, of course I can." He untied the last of the grilled fish and handed it over. The old man reached out to pick it up with a smile on his face, and just as he was about to touch the grilled fish, Liu Yong suddenly retracted his hand. The old man's face turned red.

"What? You ......" The old man was so ashamed in his heart that he was incoherent.

"A hundred pennies." Liu Yong stretched out a finger.

"Ah, you are a robbery, and it is only more than fifty yuan to buy a three-pound live fish, and you seem to be less than a pound and it costs a hundred yuan?" The old man couldn't believe his ears.

Liu Yong didn't answer the old man, but he quickly calculated in his mind: "I remember that in my grandmother's village, I bought five yuan a pound of carp when I first caught it, and the three pounds of carp were fifteen yuan." The old man said that three catties and fifty cents are worth fifty cents, which means that fifteen yuan is worth fifty cents. In this way, a penny is what it looks like to three or four cents. Well, that's how it should be. If a penny is worth three cents, a thousand wen is consistent, and a tael of silver is always three hundred yuan. The cost of a car of one hundred and fifty yuan is only forty or fifty yuan, and it remains to be seen whether it is black or not. It seems that my estimate of the five hundred taels of silver is good, and it is really worth 150,000 yuan. Nima, earn 150,000 in half a year? Although he knew the value of a penny at this time, he also felt the weight of the task he had undertaken, and he couldn't help but feel a chill down his back. But, it's man-made, worried about a fart?

The old man looked at Liu Yong and pondered, thinking that he was going to reduce the price, so he waited. But he wanted a free breakfast. Just wait for Liu Yong to drop the price.

Liu Yong came back to his senses and said with a smile: "Uncle, this is a grilled fish, you can't compare it with raw fish." ”

"Then it doesn't have to be so expensive!" Old man said.

At this time, Xiao Yingying suddenly interjected: "It's delicious." "Come on, click your little mouth. The old man couldn't help but swallow again.

"And how much do you say?" Liu Yong asked.

The old man's cloudy eyes rolled in the whites of his cloudy eyes, and he said, "Ten cents." ”

Liu Yongyi pursed his lips and said, "Then I'll give it to you for nothing." He knew in his heart that the old man in front of him was an old money addict who was calculating, and even a penny of money would be taken into account. He wanted to eat grilled fish cheaply and earn money for the car.

Loving money is not a scandal, only by loving money will people create wealth and society will progress.

In addition, money can change people's lives and make people live with dignity. You just look at those who move bricks and do coolies, they don't earn much, and they don't have dignity to live in the world. Although some people say that everyone is equal, regardless of the level of work, but in the eyes of secular people, who does not envy those who go out in luxury cars and enter villas?

It's good to love money, but behavior like this old man is a bit excessive. Hehe, it's really strange, who are the people you see when you come to Da Song? I didn't expect this old man to be an old money fan. It seems that in this life you have to deal with money.

"Ten cents, how can it be considered a free gift?" The old man felt that the price of his own was already very high.

"Not for sale." Liu Yong wiped his eyes.

"If you don't sell it, you won't sell it." The old man turned his head angrily.

Liu Yong couldn't help but laugh. I thought to myself, "This old man is a little childish!" ”

"If you don't sell it, you won't sell it, what are you laughing at?" The old man's face was a little unbearable.

Liu Yong handed the fish in his hand in front of his eyes and said, "Let's eat it for you." The old man looked at the fish with his eyes and smelled the burnt fragrance with his nose, and said, "Aren't you not selling?" Liu Yongdao: "I don't sell it to you, I give it to you for free." After saying that, he put the fish in the old man's hand.

The old man took it sneeringly, and his face was already red.
