Chapter 41: Visiting Old Subordinates
During this period, the people of Bingcheng were still relatively wealthy, and their income was not lower than that of Jingbei, and there were many large factories.
It didn't take long for a bunch of bones to be left, looking at the eldest sister with a frozen snot in front of him, and the disappointed crowd behind, Xiao Yuan's heart softened, "Help me take a look at the stall, I'll move another pig, and I'll send you some bones later." ”
The middle-aged woman nodded violently, thinking that she couldn't buy it, but she didn't expect that there was another one, and she still picked up bones for nothing, who would grab bones and knives?
He held a big pig in both hands again, so that the lard could not be stained on his clothes, so he didn't care what others thought, and told you that I have a lot of strength, and I dare to think about it myself, don't be like a few in Jingbei.
This eldest sister bought three catties of pork belly, and Xiao Yuan also gave her three big bones, so she was so happy that she took advantage of it.
It was close to half past six o'clock when the sale was out, the sky was already bright, and the number of people on the black market was increasing unabated, and it seemed that everyone was hungry, so they bought 200 catties of national food stamps.
When he was about to leave, he saw an old man squatting on the ground, with a white cloth in front of him and a gold jade ring on it.
Xiao Yuan relented again, this thing is at most a dozen grams, and unlike selling small yellow croaker, many people who sell rings are desperate.
On such a cold day, an old man sells rings, Xiao Yuan feels that he can buy it, and it will appreciate anyway.
"Uncle, how do you sell it?" Xiao Yuan asked.
"The small one is two dollars and two grams, and the big one is two cents cheaper, how much do you want?" The old man looked at him.
"Aren't you selling gold rings? How is it still big and small? Xiao Yuan asked curiously.
"Young people come for the first time, face sheng, forget it, it's not bad to look at you, tell you about it. This ring is worn by myself, the small one is a small yellow croaker, and the big one is a large yellow croaker. I also charge and sell, earn some tea fees, put rings know that you can't always put gold bars, right? The old man saw that he had sold two pigs in his car, so he told him.
It's my superficial uncle, and I'm pitiful, I'm richer than you every minute, and ten big yellow croakers are worth about the same as him.
"Yes, thank you uncle for your advice, I'll buy a small one, and I should pay the tuition." Xiao Yuan shook his head.
"Okay, the small one is 31.25 grams, a total of 68.75 yuan, I will also open a one, you can give me 68.6 yuan, just treat you to breakfast as an uncle." The old man smiled and pointed his left hand into the distance.
Xiao Yuan looked over curiously, walked over to a big man, came to the old man, and handed over a small yellow fish.
Amazing, this old man is definitely not simple, it should be a big player, Xiao Yuan observed, there are five or six strong men around, all of them are good hands, three short guns, and the strength is not small, I hope you don't mess with me best, otherwise I will take your nest away.
After the transaction was completed, the old man stuffed the money into his pocket at will, "Young man, I think you should have a channel to get meat, how about our transaction, I will exchange it for gold." ”
"Uncle, you also know, it's a wild boar, I'm not afraid to tell you, I organized people to go into the mountains yesterday to fight, and I also want to trade with you, but I can't guarantee that I can still hit it, next time I will come directly to you to sell it." Xiao Yuan said in his heart, do you want to eat fart, buddy wants to sell your turn.
"Okay, I'm here basically every day, come to me when I have the goods, and the price is absolutely fair. If I'm not here, you just say that you can find the sixth master. The old man said with a smile.
"Okay, got it." Xiao Yuan turned around and left, what bullshit Sixth Master, you dare to provoke me and make you a little Sixth Son.
Drove to the Daoxi State Hotel, fried dough sticks, soy milk, oil cakes, white porridge, roe deer meat vermicelli buns, quite complete.
Try the oil cakes, it tastes good, three oil cakes, a bowl of porridge, and 30 meat buns.
After eating, he drove away, this time he ran directly in the direction of Changbai Mountain, that is, 500 kilometers, it took longer to take the train, and the place he was going to was far away from the train.
His destination is Wusong County at the foot of Changbai Mountain, one is convenient to enter the mountain, and the second is that he has private affairs to do.
When he selected personnel, he also focused on his hunter background, with good physical strength and good skills, and he had a certain foundation, because he was born as a hunter himself.
The people without pine were all hunters, next to the famous mountains, it would not be difficult to think of it, he selected eleven people, eliminated two, and left nine soldiers.
It's just that two were sacrificed, three were injured, two were lifted, and two were discharged and went home, and I wanted to visit them this time.
The road basically did not stop, hungry to eat buns, the car ran out of gas, simply changed to a Gil heavy truck, at half past one o'clock in the afternoon into the county, the county is not much place, went around to find his destination.
"Hello, I'm looking for Li Dahu, is he there? I am his comrade-in-arms. Xiao Yuan went to the guard's room and handed over a cigarette.
"It should be there, I didn't see him go out, what do you call him?" The doorman is optimistic about the cigarettes, and he also knows that people are not simple, and the drivers of the big cars in this era have a lot of oil and water, not to mention the high salary, and the goods are very good.
"My name is Xiao Yuan, as soon as you say that he should know." Xiao Yuan said politely.
It didn't take long for a young man to run out of the courtyard, wearing a Type 55 uniform, a white shirt, and blue pants.
"Company commander, it's really you, why are you here?" Li Dahu shouted in surprise.
"Why, I can't come? You're a good boy! Xiao Yuan looked at his former subordinates and was also very happy.
"Eat with a mouthful of food, how can you compare with the company commander, you have changed jobs?" Li Dahu hurriedly saluted the cigarette, and at a glance, he knew that he was not in the army.
"Yes, I received your letter in the hospital this year, and at that time, I had just finished the operation, so I reported that I had changed jobs, and now I am working in the unit, so I won't look for you." Xiao Yuan took the cigarette and explained with a smile.
"Why don't you tell us, last time Lao Huang asked about the company commander, let's go in and drink tea, it's cold outside." Li Dahu hurriedly greeted.
"I won't go in, can you ask for a leave, let's go find them to get together." Xiao Yuan waved his hand, what are you doing in there, you are a small soldier and you don't have an office, so it's not convenient to chat.
"No problem, it just snowed heavily a few days ago, and it was freezing to death, and it's nothing, company commander, you wait for me, I'll call them by the way, Lao Zhang, the pillars are all in the countryside." Li Dahu hurriedly said.
"The county seat, let's meet first, and then drive to see the two of them." Xiao Yuan waved his hand and asked him to get in touch.
It didn't take long for Li Dahu to come out on a half-used bicycle, get out of the car and stop, "Company commander, you follow me, I asked them to ask for leave to go to my house." ”
"Okay, you lead the way." Xiao Yuan got into the car and started and followed behind Li Dahu.
Li Dahu knew that the big truck he was driving walked along the main road, and it took about ten minutes to stop at the gate of a small courtyard, which was considered the east of the county.
"Company commander, this is my house, come into the house for tea." Li Dahu said enthusiastically.
Xiao Yuan locked the car door and followed behind Li Dahu, there should be someone at home, and the door was not locked.
The courtyard is not large, with the appearance of half an acre of land, three earthen wall halls, and two simple houses made of wood on the east side, which should be kitchens or something.
"Xiaomei, I'm here, my old company commander is here." Li Dahu shouted when he entered the courtyard.
Soon, a little woman opened the door of the hall, "Master, why don't you say it in advance, the chief is coming in, it's cold outside." Zhou Xiaomei glared at her husband, there was not enough food at home, and there was no quilt, how could she entertain her?
"Okay, this is my brother and sister, you are still in the Northern Dynasty when you get married, and it took a long time to receive a letter from Dahu." Xiao Yuan greeted with a smile.
"Chief, I've always heard him mention you, but I didn't expect you to come to see us." Zhou Xiaomei politely greeted the guests into the house, but she could only go to the kang.
Xiao Yuan entered the house and saw that two children on the kang were looking at him curiously, a four or five-year-old girl and a one- or two-year-old boy.
"Big Tiger, this is a girl and a son, it's okay, you kid, you have both children and daughters. Come, eat sugar, take it, Uncle gave it. Xiao Yuan took out a handful of White Rabbit toffee from his pocket.
The little girl was quite sensible, and looked at the adult, "Come on, the uncle will give you nothing." Li Dahu looked at his daughter's longing eyes, and he didn't need to be polite to the company commander.
"Company commander, sit on the kang to warm up." Li Dahu greeted Xiao Yuan.
"No, we'll just sit on a stool, it's not cold in the house, we're smoking until the kids." Xiao Yuan waved his hand, walked to a stool and sat down.
