Chapter Fifty-Nine: Catching Up with the Market (I)
Liu Pengcheng didn't go home this weekend.
I was drunk and dizzy at Mr. Dong's house, and I was called out by Dakai to eat mutton skewers at night, so I had to go to my grandmother's house to see the two old people on Sunday, and I only went back on Monday morning.
Liu Pengcheng had just gone up to the second floor when he saw Teacher Dong coming out of Sister Na's office.
Teacher Dong said: "Go get the gun, the handcuffs, go to Xiao Wang's to get the trolley, and then follow me." ”
Ten minutes later, Liu Pengcheng started the 212 jeep with a local license plate and asked Mr. Dong: "Mr. Dong, where are we going?" ”
Teacher Dong took out a folding fan, fanned it a few times coquettishly, and said with a smile: "Take you to see the world." Dawang Baoxiang knows how to go? ”
That township and Daqingshan are exactly two directions, bordering the north coast. However, Liu Pengcheng had been there a few times in his previous life and barely knew the way. He said: "I probably know, I guess I have to ask for directions halfway." ”
Teacher Dong said: "Then let's go, just ask for directions, and don't drop the scale if you say a few good words." ”
When there is no village-to-village project, the road in Dawangbaoxiang is very difficult to walk, asked the road twice, and it took an hour to get to the Dawangbaoxiang police station.
Only the deputy director of the police station was on duty with two joint defense officers, and the rest were not there.
When they were on the way, Liu Pengcheng had already asked why they came here.
Go to market.
Rushing to the market has become a part of the life of the residents of Shanbian County, especially the farmers. There are historical reasons for this. Shanbian County is a mountainous county, which makes it very difficult for ordinary people to buy things. Before the liberation, when there was no concentrated road construction, some villages had to walk for two days if they wanted to enter the city.
But there are merchants. But how many goods can the merchant bring? Not to mention that the villages along the way have almost bought all the good things, and when they reach the villages deep in the mountains, they will be left with the rest left.
The mountain side is actually not poor. The mountains are full of good things, animal furs, medicinal herbs, mountain mushrooms, fungus, etc. are all valuable. The merchant can also collect those things on his behalf, but the price he pays is about the same as giving it for free. It's understandable, after all, people have to make money.
As a result, people are left with only one choice, which is to go to the market.
Every place has a market day. Some townships are every five and ten. Some townships are every two and eight and so on.
Every day of the market, the villagers around the market have to get up early and put on decent clothes. I will choose all kinds of mountain goods that have been carefully concocted again. Then talk to your family about what you have to buy. You're good to go.
When I arrived at the big set, I found the merchant who bought the mountain goods, and after bargaining, the mountain goods soaked in the hard work of the mountain people became the eldest son and the banknotes in my pocket.
buy two taels of phoenixes for my dad to dry; Give the old lady an ebony hairpin; buy paper books for the little ones in the family; Then bring a piece of sugar syrup sweet mouth to the little girl at home; This piece of flower cloth is also good, buy it for the child's mother and make a skirt like the city people, it is guaranteed to look good!
This is the market of the mountain people, and it is also the day of the mountain people!
But I don't know when it started, the big set also changed its taste, "week shoes", "worship pants" and other fake and shoddy goods were surrounded and suppressed in the city so that there was no place to hide, so they ran to the big set of people in the mountains. There are also those who are short of catties and short two, and the shoddy ones are all aimed at the big set. The industrial and commercial organizations in the county have made several surprise inspections in a row to inspect the quality of commodities in large quantities, and they have been severely punished if they are caught.
There are also criminals who are also eyeing Daji. Thieves, liars, and even kidnappers have all appeared on the big set. Last year, a group of criminals actually put baccarat on the stall and set up a gamble publicly! Is this when there are no police in the mountains?
Teacher Dong and Liu Pengcheng were strolling around the big set in Dawang Baoxiang. Stuff is really cheap.
Liu Pengcheng spent fifteen yuan to buy six small hunting traps to hunt pheasants, rabbits, lynxes and other small animals. I tried it with a twig and it was very sensitive. I want to put it on the mountain behind my grandmother's house. Mr. Dong didn't buy anything.
At noon, Mr. Dong took Liu Pengcheng to find a steamed dumpling stall and sit down. This one is really distinctive, the dumplings are freshly packed, and the fillings are freshly made. The most distinctive feature is the mackerel filling, where guests can see the chef picking off the mackerel meat and chopping it into a velvet and serving it in the three fresh fillings.
It tastes really good!
In addition to the mackerel dumplings with three fresh fillings, I also ordered a plate of mixed fish with sauce and a stewed tofu with white clams. Teacher Dong asked for a bowl of small roast and drank it slowly. Liu Pengcheng asked for a bottle of orange soda, which was produced in Beibin City.
This Dawangbao Township is very interesting, it takes more than an hour to drive from the mountain side county, but if you drive from Beibin City, it can be reached in less than 40 minutes.
Teacher Dong took a few sips of wine and said, "Do you know why Daji is so stopping?" ”
Liu Pengcheng also felt that the security of this big set was really good. Could it be that there is a story here?
Teacher Dong said: "Last autumn, in this big set, Lao Wang took his so-called "special intelligence" to capture a gang of abductors, capturing seven traffickers at a time, rescuing two children and three women. ”
Teacher Dong took another sip of wine and continued: "Lao Wang also drank at that time. He ordered all seven traffickers to be hung upside down from a tree in front of the market before the police cars arrived. ”
Liu Pengcheng looked over, and there was a huge willow tree that was four or five stories high.
Teacher Dong said: "Since then, the security here has been much better, but Lao Wang was punished for this matter. ”
Liu Pengcheng always felt that Mr. Dong had something to say, so he touched his wine bowl with a soda and said, "Mr. Dong, if you have anything to say, just say it directly, I know I'm young, I wish someone reminded me." ”
Teacher Dong smiled and said, "I, ah, spent the second half of my life in the Public Security Bureau, and the first half of my life in school. I've seen people who are smarter than you, and I've seen people who are braver than you. Unfortunately, none of them succeeded. Lao Wang is actually a good policeman. I still remember the first time I went on a mission with him. ”
Teacher Dong said: "The police from other places came directly, and the good daughters of other people were sold to our mountains. So we went to the rescue, the people were found, they didn't let them take away, and the old foreign cannons were brought out!
I still remember Lao Wang pulling his shirt, patting his chest and saying, shoot, shoot here, you shoot me, and you will take it back! If you don't dare to shoot, I'll take them away, and I'll go back to study compensation for you!
In fact, how dare this family shoot with the police, the most important reason is that they spend too much money and are in debt, so they don't know how to do it. Lao Wang handed over the steps, and he went down.
At that time, I thought, Lao Wang is really a good policeman! How did he become like this, do you know? ”
Liu Pengcheng thought for a while and said, "Because of greed!" ”
Lao Dong shook his head: "Who is not greedy? If it is announced tomorrow that all wages will be raised by one level, will you see if there are any unhappy ones? I'm telling you, it's because he's so bold! Being a man who looks down on others, who can't think of the rules when doing things, if he doesn't finish, he will be finished! ”
Liu Pengcheng was still thinking about what Teacher Dong said, and Teacher Dong suddenly said: "Xiaoliu, it seems that we are lucky to come to work!" ”
