Autumn in Lindu is very short, hot for a few days after entering September, and then the weather turns cooler at a rate visible to the naked eye.

Wang Yuan rode his bicycle and drove quickly on the dirt road in the mountains and forests, and occasionally he could meet an ox cart walking slowly towards the city.

The big scalper walked very slowly, with its tail flicking gently to drive away the gadfly, and the old farmer sat next to the wheel in a straw hat and occasionally waved his whip.

Wang Yuan knew that some buses were running very slowly, and he felt that this bullock cart could be compared with the bus.

"Uncle, why are you going?"

"I'll go to the township." The old farmer looked at Wang Yuan with a smile on his face, probably thinking about who Wang Yuan was.

Well, Wang Yuan didn't know him either.

As he walked all the way to the state-run store in the city, he was tired and panting.

The male employee of the state-run store knew him and said with a smile: "Little brother, do you want to buy something or sell something?"

He remembered that Wang Yuan had sold bear bile and ginseng with adults, and he was very impressed, because there were very few rural people who came to sell things in the state-run stores in the city.

Most rural people do not go to the city.

"Comrade, I'll buy ginseng."

Wang Yuan took out a ginseng bun from the back basket, and in the ginseng bun was the five-leaf ginseng, he was very well prepared, and suppressed his excitement to hear what price the other party could give.

Untie the red rope and open the birch bark and moss-wrapped ginseng buns, revealing a skinny ginseng plant.

The ginseng whiskers are more than 70 centimeters long, and the smell of earth comes to the face.

"It's ...... Five Leaves!? Little brother, wait a minute, I'll call our supervisor. ”

The supervisor is a middle-aged woman, there is a mole on the corner of her mouth, and she was also surprised when she saw this five-leaf ginseng tree.

"It weighs 2.1 taels, because it is five leaves, so it is much more expensive than four leaves, but the form is average......" The female supervisor looked at Wang Yuan as she spoke, and finally said slowly:

"2,600 yuan, how about the little brother, I'll invoice you."

"Don't Don't ......"

"What's the matter, 2,600 yuan is too little?"

The female supervisor was very unhappy in an instant, if she could collect this ginseng, she felt that Vice Mayor Liu, who was also in charge of the state-run store, should also look down on herself.

"It's not too little, it's that I'm going to go home and discuss it with my family." Wang Yuan hurriedly took back the ginseng, wrapped the ginseng buns and walked out.

"Hey~ little brother, don't go, fresh ginseng is very easy to spoil, and once it is broken, it will be worthless...... How about adding another 200 yuan to you, 2800 yuan......"

It's a pity that Wang Yuan still walked out of the state-run store with a resolute attitude.

"The employees of the state-run stores are all regular workers, so that's the owner, and the arrogant ones are now taking the initiative to raise prices?" Wang Yuan felt a little strange.

It's just that he still feels that the prices given by the state-run stores are low.

He didn't know how much the ginseng was worth, but with the impression in his heart, he felt that the price of things purchased by the state-run store was always lower than the market price.

For example: the state-run store buys the flying dragon, 4 yuan per piece.

Li Hang bought his flying dragon for 50 yuan per dragon.

It is true that there is a reason why Li Hang's family is a terminal consumer and his family is not bad for money, but Wang Yuan does not think that Li Hang is a fool.

The price of 50 yuan/flying dragon was proposed by Li Hang.

In 1986, there was already a talk of "market price", and in 1984 the State Council approved the means of industrial production, and the excess part could be sold at a price increase of less than 20%.

Last year, in 1985, the State Council abolished the 20% mark-up and sold the excess at market prices.

In the past, there was a "plan" for logging in the forest farm, and the price was almost fixed, but now the "exceeding" wood began to have a fixed price, and completely followed the market price - the price of pine began to soar, which Wang Yuan personally felt.

The purchase price of the state-run store is the "planned" price, not the market price, and Wang Yuan feels that it is a loss to sell things at the planned price now.

"Ginseng is not in a hurry to sell, this thing is too difficult to find, it is good to find a few more buyers and ask more...... Okay, let's go to Li Hang's house for a while. ”

Wang Yuan felt that he had very few friends, and he didn't know so much about this era, he was not a person of this era in his previous life, but fortunately he still had a space, and the space helped him a lot.

Taking out two big mandarin fish, Wang Yuan rode to Li Hang's house, and the doorman accepted a box of cigarettes from him before, and now he is much more enthusiastic.

Knock knock~

After coming upstairs, he knocked on the door directly, squeak~ Li Hang opened the door.

"Yuanzi, are you here? Come in. ”

"Hey~ I brought two big mandarin fish."

"Oh, I haven't eaten mandarin fish in a while."

Li Hang was very happy, took the two mandarin fish to the kitchen, let Wang Yuan sit on the sofa, and then opened the refrigerator to bring him ice cream to eat.

Wang Yuan has been here several times, and each time the two of them will chat for a while, Li Hang found that Wang Yuan is very different from other ordinary young people, for example, Wang Yuan is very optimistic about the future of Shenzhen.

Li Hang's father has been to Shenzhen, but his opinion of the latter is not very good, or rather hesitant, Li Hang himself is very interested in Shenzhen, and his thinking is more or less influenced by his father.

Not to mention rural people, many urban people are confused about Shenzhen, but Wang Yuan is very optimistic about Shenzhen, and some of what he said is quite reasonable.

"Aren't your parents home?"

"yes, my parents went to the mines."

Li Hang gave the fish money to Wang Yuan, but the latter was not polite and put it away directly.

Li Hang's father has a coal mine in Hegang and is an authentic mine owner.

Is private coal mining allowed in this era? Wang Yuan didn't understand, whether it was completely private, or joint, affiliated, collective-owned, etc., Wang Yuan didn't quite understand.

In this era, there are not so many entertainment activities, many people like to read newspapers to pass the time, and after reading the old newspapers, you can wrap things, origami airplanes, paste wall cracks, paste windows, and so on.

Li Hang's family also has a lot of newspapers, and while watching TV, eating ice cream, and chatting about the content of the newspaper, Li Hang found that Wang Yuan has his own opinions on many things in the newspaper, rather than being confused.

"By the way, I also brought a wild ginseng, help me contact to see if I can find a buyer, and I will invite you to eat after selling ginseng!" Wang Yuan said with a smile.

"Wild ginseng? Let me see. ”

"It's in this steamed bun."

Wang Yuan opened the ginseng bun. Looking at the wild ginseng, Li Hang muttered: "It's so small, it's much smaller than the ginseng planted, and the wild ginseng is so small?"

"There are also big ones, seven taels are ginseng and eight taels are treasures, but there are too few wild ginseng for the big ones." Wang Yuan closed the ginseng bun again and carefully tied it with a red rope.

Li Hang agreed to help find a buyer, and then Wang Yuan played at Li Hang's house for a while, and then rode away.

After buying some fried cakes, old-fashioned chicken cakes, stove fruits and 5 catties of pork on the way, Wang Yuan rode his bicycle home.

It was already afternoon when he got home.

The little girl was squatting on the ground to watch the chicks, and when she saw Wang Yuan, she immediately ran over with her little short legs: "Second brother!!"

"I bought you fried cakes, you can eat them."

"Uh-huh, hehe~ Second brother, you're so nice." The little girl is very happy when she has delicious food.

Touching the little girl's head, Wang Yuan walked into the house, and let him be at his house with Grandma Man, and she was here to be a matchmaker and introduced a big girl to Wang Yuan.

"Huh? Blind date? I ........."

Wang Yuan stood in the back room, looking at his parents, grandparents, and grandmothers in the house, and was instantly stunned on the spot.
