51 Buying and selling
Zhao Lele regretted that it was useless, the money had already been spent. Her heart hurts on the one hand, and she has to deal with Aunt Zhang at the same time.
The bus jolted all the way to the suburbs, and she leaned drowsilyly on her seat, her head nodding down from time to time. If it weren't for the conductor who shouted out loud from time to time, she would have been able to fall asleep.
More than an hour later, the bus stopped on the side of the road and threw Zhao Lele and Zhang Damiang off the bus.
Zhao Lele looked around, there was not even a place to shelter from the wind and rain, and the so-called platform was just a simple small sign.
The desolate hillside and half-human-high weeds make people can't believe that this is actually the same as the dilapidated and dirty small village near the provincial capital, which makes Zhao Lele feel like returning to his hometown in an instant.
"Auntie, where is the construction site?" Zhao Lele looked around, and there was no trace of the construction site.
Aunt Zhang smiled kindly: "Oh, there is still a section to go, you follow me." ”
"Auntie, do you know where it is? Do you know the road? Zhao Lele remembered that in the car, Aunt Zhang said that she was illiterate and didn't know the road.
"I don't know the road, but my son said he could find it by walking down the road after getting out of the car." Aunt Zhang replied with a smile.
"Auntie, why do you need someone to help you find your way?" Zhao Lele had a feeling of being fooled.
"Sister, I don't know how to read, and I can't understand what the conductor said, you have to speak in your hometown, so I'm relieved." Aunt Zhang coaxed Zhao Lele over in a few words.
"Okay, now that I've gotten off the bus, can I go back?" Zhao Lele doesn't think that the only way can be wrong.
"Girl, please help, you will send the Buddha to the west, help people to the end, send me back again, in case I can't find my son, what should I do?"
Zhao Lele faced Aunt Zhang's bitter pleading, couldn't find the right words to refuse, and vaguely agreed to accompany her to find someone.
Seeing that the road was getting more and more desolate, Zhao Lele saw that there were fewer and fewer people, and couldn't help asking: "Auntie, how long will it take to arrive?" ”
"Don't worry, see that the hut in front of you is not there, and it will not be far after it."
Zhao Lele looked at the cabin in front of him and secretly complained in his heart.
The hut looks close, but I don't know how far it is, and it doesn't take an hour to walk over, but I'm afraid it will take half an hour.
Aunt Zhang is old, her legs and feet are not as fast as young people, and the two of them really walked for nearly an hour to reach the hut.
Zhao Lele sat on the big stone in front of the house to rest, and he really didn't want to continue walking until his feet hurt.
"Auntie, we are going further and further, is there really a construction site?" Zhao Lele asked again.
"Well, my son won't lie to me." Aunt Zhang muttered to herself.
Zhao Lele persuaded hopelessly: "Auntie, let's go back!" ”
"No, I must find ......" Aunt Zhang insisted on entering the mountain, and Zhao Lele could only accompany her.
Time is passing fast, and Zhao Lele can feel that the time is not early without a watch.
Now she and Aunt Zhang have changed positions, Aunt Zhang walked in front, and she stopped and followed helplessly.
"Auntie, how long is it left?" Zhao Lele was deflated again.
"Coming soon." Aunt Zhang was waiting for her at the turn.
Zhao Lele had to stand up and continue to hurry, she already regretted helping today, helping others was not an easy task.
After Zhao Lele turned the corner, he found that the road had come to an end, but there was no construction site, but there was a very large reservoir.
"Auntie, are we in the wrong place?" Zhao Lele refused to go any further.
Aunt Zhang looked back at her with a smile: "Hehe, that's right, this is it." ”
"But there's no construction site here."
"Well, there's no construction site, but it's right here." After Mrs. Zhang finished speaking, she turned her head to the house by the reservoir and shouted, "The guest has arrived."
There were two or three families scattered around the edge of the reservoir, and the moment they heard the sound, almost all of them ran out to greet them.
"How did you get there?" The person who asked was a middle-aged man with half-gray hair, and his bitter gourd face did not have a trace of coldness that made people afraid.
"You take a look at the goods first." Aunt Zhang did not answer the man's question.
Zhao Lele watched the two chatting inexplicably, and she felt that something was wrong. Aunt Zhang said that she couldn't understand Mandarin before, but what did she say just now?
Zhao Lele can confirm that Aunt Zhang spoke Mandarin just now, although it was a non-standard plastic Mandarin.
"Auntie, what is this place?" Zhao Lele could see that Aunt Zhang knew these villagers.
Aunt Zhang didn't answer her question, but asked the middle-aged man in the lead: "How is it?" Satisfied or dissatisfied? ”
The middle-aged man looked at Zhao Lele from head to toe before nodding: "Okay, how much?" ”
Aunt Zhang and other middle-aged men replied before they smiled and said to Zhao Lele: "Hehe, this is where you will live in the future." ”
"Auntie, what do you mean?" Zhao Lele was a little flustered, and she finally felt that something was wrong.
"Look, this girl is a college student, educated, young and beautiful, you have to get a good price." Aunt Zhang was not afraid of Zhao Lele running, and directly negotiated the price line with the middle-aged man in front of her.
No matter how stupid Zhao Lele is, she understands the meaning of this sentence, she doesn't have time to think about it, and she subconsciously pulls her legs and runs.
Aunt Zhang didn't blink, and as soon as the middle-aged man waved his hand, two young people followed and chased after him.
"Hehe, what evidence do you have for a college student? You can't just say a word about it. "Middle-aged men aren't stupid either.
"Hmph, if you look at this girl, you will know that she is a scholar, she has the school's badge on her, you don't have to search her body." Aunt Zhang inquired about Zhao Lele's affairs on the way.
"Really? I just need a guest baby, what about college students, the baby born is not the same. The middle-aged man rubbed his hands back and forth. He already believed eighty percent in his heart, but in front of Aunt Zhang, he had to pretend to be disgusted to lower the price.
"Of course, this female college student is different, and the babies born are a little smarter. If you want it, you can sell it to others. Aunt Zhang said this deliberately.
"Who do you want to sell people to? Can you walk out and still walk out with her? Just your old arms and legs. The middle-aged man glanced at Aunt Zhang contemptuously.
"I don't have that ability, but I have a partner, you don't think I'm going into the village alone, right? He followed far behind. "Aunt Zhang never fights unprepared battles.
"Then you make a bid." The middle-aged man thought of the last transaction with Aunt Zhang, and was afraid that he would have to find her to buy someone in the future, so he bowed his head first if he was very knowledgeable about current affairs.
"The price." Aunt Zhang stretched out a hand and turned it back and forth.
"What? How much do you want? Thousand? The middle-aged man's expressionless face finally showed an expression of surprise.
"Yes, a thousand." Aunt Zhang's lion opened her mouth.
"Why don't you go and grab it! A thousand? No way. The middle-aged man refused without thinking.
At this price, he can buy at least two yellow flower girls, so he won't be stupid to buy any female college students.
