Chapter 957: Wake Up
Compared with the city, life in the countryside has not been affected by much, because they can't afford anything.....
Therefore, there is no shortage of goods outside, and it has nothing to do with them whether the materials are tight or not.
Life is already at rock bottom, and it won't go any further.
In terms of food, the peasants' annual ration of 360 catties per person is still there, which is much better than the more than 100 catties in 60 years, so they are now living more easily than some people in the city.
There is no threat of food shortage, and there is no danger of being criticized.
The surplus people even have a little surplus food to exchange things with the people in the city.
Zhao Guoqing and Da Ben walked in the dark, getting closer and closer to the crowd in the distance, sporadic torches flickering, and a piece of green streaked through.
"Wait!" The big stupid spirit grabbed Zhao Guoqing, who was bored and walked forward, and threw himself on the ground by pressing him.
"Who's working?" Big Ben asked in a suppressed voice.
"Old peasant? Who else could it be? Zhao Guoqing was taken aback by his actions, and thought something was wrong, but when he heard him ask, it turned out to be this, and said angrily.
It's not the peasants who work in the fields, but the cadres?
"Open your dog's eyes and take a good look! Do peasants wear military uniforms? ”
Zhao Guoqing fixed his eyes at this time, and it was dark in the distance that he couldn't see clearly, but several people around the torch were wearing army green clothes, and as the team moved, the people who appeared behind were also army green.
This is not a peasant, this is a soldier! Workers' overalls are not of this color, except in the arsenal.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, this is a force that has gone to the countryside to help." Zhao Guoqing said.
He used to be a young master and knew more, but the big stupid from an ordinary family had never been exposed to these.
Hearing his words, Da Ben also remembered the rumors he had occasionally heard and breathed a sigh of relief.
Scared him to death, he thought he had broken into some covert operation.
But the two men did not get up and continued to walk. I know very well what I'm here for, it's an illegal business, so these people find out, and they can't be executed on the spot?
Doesn't make sense, but what if? When it's a mess, anything can happen. Even if they are not executed, the broken leg will be enough for them.
The two of them honestly lay in the dry ditch on the side of the road, and waited until the figure in the distance finished work and walked far away for a long time before climbing out.
"Why don't we go back today? Not all here. Zhao Guoqing said.
Da Ben thought about it but gritted his teeth: "Don't go back, keep going." The captain has been in a bad mood lately and can't change things... Take our anger out again..."That's almost the same effect as being caught by these people.
Jin Ming has been in a bad mood lately, and he has searched all the streets and alleys of the city, and he has not found the figure of Feng Yu, is he going back to his hometown again?
No, it's so troublesome to go out now, he asked Da Ben, Feng Hua's expression that day was like hanging out. She shouldn't have come all the way to the capital just to go shopping, there must be something.
If there is something, you have to stay, you have to have traces of life, and you should be discovered by him!
He's already begged his grandfather to tell his grandmother and sprinkle a lot of things, so that the team that has a decent relationship can help keep an eye on it.
Naturally, there was no news. This shouldn't be! The capital is so big! Feng Hua is so conspicuous, as long as she has appeared, she should be discovered.
Anyway, Jin Ming just didn't want to believe that Feng Hua, who had been waiting for a few years, passed by him.
So the recent face is so gloomy that you can wring out the water at any time.
Zhao Guoqing's body trembled when he thought about it, he was the last one in the Red Flag Team, or he was forced in, basically an outsider. Jin Ming is not good at being angry with others, and there is really no psychological burden on him.
"Then let's hurry up and change things, let's go back quickly." Zhao Guoqing urged the big stupid instead.
The two of them cautiously sneaked towards the village, and really went to the old customer's house.
It's still reliable to find old acquaintances, and it's very dangerous to develop new customers casually, who knows if the other party is a dead eye? Or a person who has no food left at home.
If they encounter this kind of person, they will not be good, and they will definitely be reported.
The old acquaintance's family lived in the only blue brick house in the village, and there were more than a dozen children in the family, but they were all small and couldn't eat much, but there was more food left.
The male owner is also bold and dares to exchange things with them.
"Woohoo, woohoo! Woof! Da Ben stood on the side of the tiled house and learned to bark a few times.
It's their code.
After a while, the west door opened, and a man walked out quickly.
"Hurry up, hurry up, today is not the time!" The man came to the wall and immediately whispered.
"What's wrong? Didn't those who served as soldiers go? Zhao Guoqing asked.
"The men are gone, but the women are staying, and there are three living in the next room! Hurry up, you guys won't change it today! ”
"Woman? What woman? Zhao Guoqing didn't react.
"Stupid! It must be the daughter-in-law of those officers! Big stupid scolded Zhao Guoqing.
The military wives who can accompany the army must be the daughters-in-law of officers. Because ordinary soldiers are not qualified to let their families accompany the army.
Due to different reasons, the conditions for accompanying the army are somewhat different in different places, but they are basically above the company level. The level of the troops stationed in Beijing should be raised by one notch, and only at the rank of the principal and deputy battalions can their families be allowed to accompany the army.
Hearing that the daughter-in-law of a senior official was living in the house, Da Ben hesitated. It's a crater, it's too dangerous.
"What are you afraid of! You've got the ink with us, so you've got something to change with us! Go back and get 20 catties of grain, and I'll give you money at the price last time. Zhao Guoqing said.
He was a little more bold at this time, he couldn't get anything, and he might be the one who was beaten! Even if he was stubborn, he had to get something.
When the things are in hand, they will run away, anyway, this fellow doesn't know the origin of their names, even if he is discovered, he can't report them.
The man looked back at the room to the east, and all three houses were quiet, and they should all be asleep.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! After saying that, he quickly went back to the house to get something.
The current market price is okay, two or three times that of the past few years, and of course it cannot be compared with 60 years ago.
But a pound of grain can also be sold for two or three catties, what a good thing! After this village, who knows if there is still this shop?
So hold up the bold and starve the cowardly, do it!
But the man was so excited that he didn't see a bowl next to the grain bag and touched the ground.
In the house of the blue brick house, it is also a green brick floor, the sound of the bowl falling to the ground is particularly crisp, and the sound of breaking is also very beautiful, and it is loud~
Lan Ying and Fang Fang in the East House both woke up. One is a light sleeper, the other has a bright ear.
"It's okay, someone broke a bowl in the next room, let's go back to sleep." Feng said.
It's not that I'm in the gangsters... The two of them were relieved, but they didn't sleep again.
Lan Ying got up: "I went to the toilet, and I drank too much oil tea noodles in that big vat at night." ”
