13. Go to the city and sell flying dragons

Wild rabbits are mostly diurnal and nocturnal, and they drill holes when they encounter them, and they are very alert, and it is very difficult for humans to catch.

If there are more carnivores in the mountains and forests, and the hares live in a harsh environment, then most of the hares are very thin and have no fat. And if there are few carnivores in the mountains and forests, then the hares are mostly fat.

The nearby forests are close to the villages, hunters are frequent, and there are few large carnivores, so the wild rabbits in the vicinity are very fat.

Carrying the fat hare down the mountain, Wang Yuan was in a good mood and hummed all the way.

When he walked into the village with the hound, he saw Wang Shuai, who had had a holiday with him, walking on the right, carrying two dead flying dragons in his hands.

The flying dragon is the "flower-tailed chicken", which is a kind of walking chicken, which does not look too flamboyant in color because of its chubby coat, but the meat quality is indeed excellent.

"Hey! Wang Yuan, did you catch a rabbit? I caught two wyverns, envy, right? Wang Shuai was happy, with a full face.

Wang Yuan also laughed for a moment, groaned slightly, and said as he walked: "Sell me your flying dragon, and I'll give you a high price."

"Huh?" Wang Shuai was stunned: "Really? Are you going to buy a Wyvern? ”

"yes, 1 yuan per piece, how about it?"

In 1986, the purchasing power of 1 yuan was still quite amazing, equivalent to half a day's wages for many people, and it was close to the price of 1 pound of lean meat.

The flying dragon is not big, even counting the hair, blood, bones, and internal organs, I am afraid it weighs less than 1 catty.

Wang Shuai himself is also very poor, and his parents are also in charge of his family's home, so he is also very moved, but he still said:

"1 yuan / piece is too low, this thing is very difficult to catch, at least 1.5 yuan / piece!"

Wang Yuan was sure in his heart that Wang Shuai really didn't know the purchase price of the state-owned stores in the city.

In 1986, many rural people almost never went to the city, let alone the city, not even to the county seat, but at most to the countryside.

"1.5 dollars is too high......"

The price was cut again, and the final price was set at 1.3 yuan per piece.

"Okay, let's give the money, two for 2.6 yuan." Wang Shuai licked his lips and seemed to have begun to figure out how to spend the money after getting it.

"Hmm...... I owe it first, and I'll give you the money tomorrow. Wang Yuan stretched out his hand to pick up the two flying dragons.

"You...... What the hell are you empty gloves wolf cub? Want to trick me? There are no doors. Wang Shuai was angry, and instantly retracted the two flying dragons.

"Don't scold the street, you will be beaten if you scold the street...... What else do you not believe in my character? Forget it, I'll go home and give you Qiu money, you wait here and don't move. ”

Wang Yuan took the big wolf dog and ran home quickly.

Wang's mother is collecting shoe soles in the house, Wang's father is chopping wood in the courtyard, and the little girl is watching the spiders build webs in the courtyard.

Wang Yuan ran home and stuffed the rabbit to Wang's father, and then ran into the house to ask Wang's mother for money, and the family's financial power was still in the hands of Wang's mother.

The little girl squatted in the corner of the wall and didn't see Wang Yuan, but when she turned around to look for it, she found the hare in Wang's father's arms, and her eyes lit up instantly.

Inside the house.

Wang Yuan told Wang's mother about the matter, and then said:

"In the city, two flying dragons can be sold for 8 yuan, but now they only need to spend 2.6 yuan to buy them from Wang Shuai, and they can earn 5.4 yuan when they change hands! I can buy several catties of pork. ”

"Okay, I'll get you the money."

Wang's mother was stunned, she also knew that the matter was urgent, so she hurriedly opened the small wooden door of the kang qin, reached in and touched it for a while, took out a small can and bottle, and counted 2.6 yuan to Wang Yuan.

Wang Yuan took the money and ran out.

"Second brother, what are you doing? I'll go too! ”

The little girl wanted to chase Wang Yuan, but her legs were too short, so she ran a few steps and went back to see the rabbit.

Pay the money with one hand, and hand over the chicken with the other.

Wang Yuan carried two flying dragons home, these two flying dragons are less than a catty, the largest one is probably only 7 taels, and the smallest is only about 6 taels.

However, the state-run stores are collected on a case-by-case basis, and he doesn't care if it's lighter.

Seeing Wang Yuan happily go home, Wang Shuai's head was still a little dizzy, he looked at the 2.6 yuan in his hand, and muttered: "How can you feel like being pitted?"

Back home.

Mom and Dad, and the two younger sisters all gathered around.

The two dead dragons were placed on the ground, looking small, and Mother Wang asked, "Is this thing really that valuable?" Xiaoyuan, you can't be mistaken, right? Your grandfather caught it last year, and you went to eat it at the time. ”

After saying a word, Wang's mother looked at Wang's father.

Father Wang also went to the city before, obviously she was asking Father Wang for confirmation.

"Ahem, I didn't pay attention to the price list at the time." Father Wang's face was pale.

"Of course it's true, I'm going to the city to sell these two flying dragons, the weather is hot, and it may deteriorate after a long time." Wang Yuandao.

In fact...... He didn't want to ask his parents to get money, because if he found his parents to get money, he was afraid that the money he earned would have to be handed over.

But who let him have no money himself, it is much better to give money to his parents than not to make money.

"Okay, I'll steam the buns, let's bring a few buns."

Mother Wang found a piece of straw paper, put 3 meat buns and some cooked bear meat on it, then wrapped the straw paper and put it in a bamboo basket, and put the two flying dragons in it.

There are two iron hooks on the side of the bamboo basket, and the iron hooks can just be hung on the back seat of the bicycle, Wang Yuan's family does not have a bicycle, so he can only go to his grandfather's house and push his grandfather's bicycle over.

"Mom and Dad, I'm leaving, you guys go back to dinner."

"Slow down on the road."

Saying goodbye to his parents, Wang Yuan rode away on a bicycle.

Slowly out of the village, the sun was hot, the cicadas were bursting, Wang Yuan's forehead was covered with sweat, and he rode for more than an hour, tired, thirsty and hungry, so he stopped under a big tree on the side of the road.

He went to the creek not far away and drank some water, then sat in the shade under the tree, took out the rice that his mother had wrapped for him, and ate it in a big gulp.

My mother was worried that he wouldn't be able to eat enough, so there was a lot of bear meat in the straw paper bag, about a pound in weight, fragrant and spicy, and the taste was very good.

"There's still a bun and a few pieces of bear meat left, put them away first, and I don't know if I can rush back in the evening."

Wang Yuan wrapped the straw paper and put it back in the basket, went to the river to drink a few sips of water, washed his face, and then rested under the tree.

After resting for about 10 minutes, Wang Yuan rode his bicycle and continued to set off.

"This era is too bitter, such a long distance, riding a bicycle on the big day, forget it, ride quickly, and strive to get to the city as soon as possible."

Wang Yuan pedaled quickly, and the bicycle instantly flew up, and the wind was quite cool, and it felt a little comfortable.

After a long time, he finally arrived in the city, and went straight to the state-run store without resting.

Suddenly.

Just as he passed by an intersection, two groups of people suddenly rushed out one after the other, the people in front were running, and the people behind were chasing with wooden sticks, chains, and watermelon knives.
