The car staggered to a stop at the library, and after the two got out of the car, they first ate a bowl of knife-cut noodles at a nearby restaurant, and then walked slowly towards the agreed place at almost two o'clock.

He Weiyang stood at the entrance of the alley next to the library, stomping his feet while poking his head out to look at the door of the library from time to time.

Seeing Gu Shinian coming over with Yunshang from a distance, He Weiyang immediately greeted him, greeted him with a smile, and looked at the military bag on Gu Shinian's body, "Comrade Gu Xiao, you are here!" I'm worried you won't have time to come over today. ”

"Uncle He, I'm sorry, I'm going out late, so I'll make you wait a little longer."

"It's not too late, it's not too late, it's me who came early."

It was still a few minutes before two o'clock, and it was indeed early for the sun.

Gu Shinian glanced at the big leather bag that He Weiyang was sandwiched under his arm, bulging, it was estimated that it contained a lot of seeds, and he tacitly accelerated under his feet, and followed He Weiyang to stand at the mouth of the alley.

"Comrade Gu Xiao, there are not a few catties of wheat seeds left at the Linyang Seed Station, I just found five catties of vegetable seeds, how about I post you for some more money?"

If the wheat seeds are not planted in the ground, that is, ordinary wheat with a little fuller grains, which can only produce eight taels of semolina flour per catty, or seven taels of rich and strong flour, and it can be sold for less than one dollar on the black market.

And the brand-new military bag used by the soldiers, even if it is sold for ten yuan, some people rush to buy it, He Weiyang has already decided that Gu Shinian is a child in the compound, but he doesn't have the courage to fool him casually.

Gu Shinian nodded, took the 5 yuan handed over by He Weiyang, as well as the vegetable seeds wrapped in old newspapers, opened it and took a look, and found that there were many types of seeds, red, black, and green, which were as big as eggs.

"Comrade Gu Xiao, these vegetable seeds have been put for a long time, and the germination rate may not be very high, when planting, remember to put a few more seeds in a nest."

He Weiyang's voice was a little embarrassed, Gu Shinian smiled, wrapped the seeds and handed them to Yunsheng, and thanked He Weiyang in his mouth, "Thank you, Uncle He, this vegetable seed was given to me for free, how can I dislike it." ”

As he spoke, he took out a brand-new military bag from his bag and handed it to He Weiyang, "Uncle He, I was carrying a military bag a little old before, so I asked my family to get you a new one, are you satisfied with it?" ”

He Weiyang took the military bag happily, looked at it back and forth, folded it carefully, and grinned politely to Gu Shinian, "Hey! Isn't it all the same for the new and the old! The new army bag is also forbidden for my family to carry the boy's back! ”

After the transaction was completed, He Weiyang quickly left with his shriveled leather bag. Gu Shinian found a corner to avoid people, asked Yunshang to put the wheat seeds into the space, and then used his hands to cover the red moles in the corners of Yunsheng's eyes, and finally filled the bag with a few catties of rice, two handfuls of noodles, and walked to the drama school not far away with Yunsheng.

"Second Brother Gu, why are we going to the drama school to sell things?"

Yunshang couldn't understand what Gu Shinian thought, just this little thing in the bag could be sold for a few yuan, and he was guilty of doing speculative things with fear?

"Fool, we're not here to sell things." Seeing Yunshang looking at him with blank eyes, Gu Shinian smiled again, "Good, you'll know tomorrow." ”

The Linxi Provincial Opera School has been established for less than five years, and the school is not large, with not many students and teachers. In addition to providing single dormitories for teachers, the school does not have the ability to divide rooms for teachers, and naturally there is no so-called compound for employees' families.

Gu Shinian stopped at the school gate with Yunshang, hugged the bulging military bag in his arms, felt out a small section of twist and gnawed on it without a bite, and looked up from time to time to observe the students or teachers entering and leaving the school gate.

Soon someone stopped beside the two, Yunshang looked up and saw that the other party was an honest-looking middle-aged man, wearing a pair of black-framed glasses, wearing a white-washed, patched Zhongshan suit, and was staring closely at the twist flower on Gu Shinian's hand that was less than a palm long.

"Comrade, what's the matter with you?"

The man swallowed his saliva, looked around, lowered his voice and quietly asked Gu Shinian, "Little comrade, do you sell the twist flowers in your hand?" ”

"Not for sale!"

Gu Shinian glanced at the man and looked away, pulled Yunshang back a few steps, and continued to look at the teachers and students who came and went.

The man's face was full of disappointment, and he reluctantly glanced at the twist flower on Gu Shinian's hand, lowered his head and walked into the school.

After that, two groups of people who wanted to buy the twist flowers in Gu Shinian's hands came one after another, but he firmly refused.

It wasn't until four o'clock in the afternoon that a woman in her forties, about forty years old, pushing a bicycle, who was emaciated, but had a straight waist, stopped beside them.

Gu Shinian glanced at the person who came, and saw that the other party was wearing a neat bun on the back of his head, wearing a well-fitting cadre suit, which was cleanly washed and not patched, and he was still wearing a pair of new leather shoes on his feet.

The most important thing is that the woman's eyes are very lively,

Seeing this clearly, Gu Shinian not only did not retreat, but slowly put the leftovers in his hand back into his bag, looked up and asked, "Comrade, is there something wrong with you?" ”

The woman didn't miss the white rice and white noodles that were exposed when Gu Shinian opened the backpack, her already lively eyes suddenly lit up, her hand holding the handle of the bicycle tightened slightly, she half-pressed her body on the bicycle, and asked eagerly, "Little comrade, do you sell the rice in your bag?" ”

"Auntie, are you a teacher at the drama school?" Gu Shinian asked first.

The woman was stunned for a moment, nodded slightly, and hurriedly asked, "I'm a teacher at the drama school, little comrade, how do you sell the rice and noodles in your bag?" How many are there? ”

Gu Shinian still didn't answer the woman's question, and continued to ask unhurriedly, "Then do you know anyone in the city hospital?" ”

The woman was stunned for a moment, and looked at Gu Shinian in a daze, as if she couldn't understand the connection between the two questions before and after.

"Little comrade, are you sick with someone in your family, or does someone want to go to drama school? If I go to drama school, I can still help you, but if you go to the city hospital, then I can't help, I don't know the doctor in the city hospital. ”

"But......" The other party slowly straightened up, with a look of determination on his face, "I have a friend who knows the doctor from the military hospital, if you sell me all the rice and white noodles, I can try to help you match." ”

Just try to match, the other party does not guarantee whether it is successful, and even after the transaction is completed, the other party does not guarantee whether the other party will match.

What a living pan indeed!

Gu Shinian was amused in his heart, and greeted the woman's smiling face and said, "Comrade, I don't sell the things in my bag." ”

"What?" The woman's face was full of astonishment, almost thinking that she had misheard.

Gu Shinian smiled and continued, "But the things in my bag can be given to you!" ”
