Chapter Twelve, Big Rooster
Not long after walking out of the factory, I met Xu Damao again.
"Jimin, what kind of book are you holding?"
"Notebook."
"Oh." Xu Damao suddenly lost interest, his life was only interested in two things: women and stupid pillars.
For women, he is not true love, but stupid, he is true love.
I'm not interested, but it's not a big kid on a rainy day, and I'm idle anyway, so I chatted a few times.
Halfway through, I just met the second uncle, the first uncle and others, and the chat team was even larger.
From Xu Damao's mouth, all the courtyard neighbors also knew that Zhou Jimin wanted to take the electrician certificate.
There is nothing you don't know about the electrician's certificate when you work in a rolling mill.
After all, there is still a notice to recruit electricians at the street office.
New China, which is the same age as Zhou Ji, is now lacking in everything, and talent is the most scarce.
In many places in the countryside and rural areas, many people still don't know what electricity is, and people in the city can't tell what electricity is.
Not to mention an electrician's certificate.
Therefore, everyone heard that Zhou Jimin was going to take the electrician certificate, some supported and praised him, some envied him, and some thought he was so ambitious.
Uncle Yi thinks so, he thinks that Zhou Jimin is an unnecessary hairy boy in junior high school, and he knows the knowledge of an electrician.
If you can get an electrician's certificate by reading a few books, it will be all over the street.
Many unemployed young people in the capital have junior and senior high school degrees, Yan Jiecheng in the front yard, and Liu Guangfu in the backyard have quietly taken the exam, but they have not passed the exam.
Relying on the old man and selling the old, relying on his status as a seventh-level worker, he couldn't help but preach.
Seeing that the other party was talking more and more, Zhou Jimin couldn't help it:
"Uncle Yi, as an elder, you don't encourage us juniors to be motivated, why do you still say frustrating words? Now that this is a new society, I am doing my little bit to make a small contribution to building our country well, am I wrong? Worth your excitement? ”
"I didn't stop you from taking the test, I just suggested that you study more and precipitate." Uncle Yi regretted that his mouth was fast, so he hurriedly played sloppy:
"Hey, why are you still in a hurry?"
"Why do you see that I'm in a hurry? Am I not reading a book? ”
"Young man." Uncle Yi couldn't hold his face, shook his head, and took a step first.
"Cut, what's wrong with the young man? I didn't eat your rice. Zhou Jimin muttered to the other party's back, so that he was not used to the other party.
Seeing that the first uncle was deflated, the second uncle was quite happy.
"Zhou Jimin, can you really pass the electrician certificate exam?"
"No, second uncle, you're also here to make trouble, aren't you? Who can guarantee it? Zhou Jimin is not sure, even if he is completely sure, but he can't be too full of words, and it is easy to say.
"Don't get me wrong." The second uncle hurriedly stopped and said:
"Isn't this to ask if you have confidence, if you have confidence, I want to ask you what book you read, and I will recommend it to you Brother Guangfu when I go back."
The second grandfather's family who lives in the backyard has a total of three sons, and the eldest son is Liu Guangfu.
In the second uncle's family, the eldest son is biological, and Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangdang are the two younger ones, and they are beaten and scolded every day, as if they are not biological.
It's a pity that in the original TV series, none of the sons of the second uncle's family are filial.
The saying that a stick makes a filial son is not true.
"Oh, these are all notes I copied in the library, Brother Guangfu can go to the library to find them by himself."
Pouting, Zhou Jimin didn't say anything else.
Back in the courtyard, meat is naturally indispensable for dinner.
Just like at noon, when I cooked, I kicked my younger siblings out of the kitchen and went next door to do their homework.
And he himself closes the door, cooks the food in the warehouse space, and then brings it out.
In this way, it can be regarded as avoiding the risk of being smelled by neighbors.
This is not entirely guaranteed, but it is better to avoid it.
"Big brother, do you want to take the electrician certificate? What is an electrician's certificate? ”
While eating, the little goldfish asked.
Immediately attracted Zhou Shuqing's attention.
As soon as he heard this, Zhou Jimin knew that this matter was estimated to spread throughout the courtyard.
That is, Zhou Shuqing and a few of them are doing their homework, so it is better to be well-informed about the little goldfish playing outside.
After a brief explanation, Zhou Jimin suddenly said to the little goldfish:
"From tonight onwards, you can start reading with your fourth brother, Xiaoqing, after dinner, you will give her your previous first-grade books."
"Little goldfish, in the future, you have to ensure that you have an hour of study time every day, just read the book, write again and again, and memorize the multiplication formula table by the way."
"Huh?"
Zhou Shumin, who was inexplicably suffering, suddenly became bitter on her little face.
You shouldn't have talked too much just now, look, big brother is angry, right?
Looking at her expression, Zhou Jimin and they were all happy.
There was nothing to say all night, and early the next morning, Zhou Jimin got up early and went to the pigeon market.
The pigeon market in the early morning is the most lively.
However, everyone is cautious.
Unlike during the day, the early hours of the morning are the easiest time to be caught in one go.
Therefore, most of the time, everyone puts the East XZ that needs to be sold not far from the pigeon market, and when the real trade is needed, they will leave the pigeon market to complete the transaction.
"Uncle, what are you selling?"
Seeing an old man with a feather in front of him, Zhou Jimin suddenly became a little greedy.
"A big rooster of six pounds, four cents a pound."
Compared to the old hen that can lay eggs, the price of a large rooster is very cheap.
Compared with the three cents of pork, four cents a pound, it is still a bit expensive.
However, compared to spicy chicken, large plate chicken, roast chicken, coconut chicken and other delicacies, Zhou Jimin can still accept this price.
Immediately, he followed the old man out of the pigeon market, walked for nearly a mile, and came across a dilapidated courtyard, and then stopped.
A teenage girl nervously guarded the goods, and when she saw her grandfather coming, she stood up happily.
In total, there are three large roosters, two hares and a large goose.
After a little closer inspection, Zhou Jimin found that something was wrong.
Those three big roosters don't look like they are domesticated, these long tails, this is the prey, right?
Moreover, the six catties that the old man just said turned out to be three for a total of six catties.
Pheasants generally weigh about one or two catties, although some can grow to three or four catties, but they are relatively rare.
So, that goose is also hunting?
From the old man's mouth, it undoubtedly confirmed Zhou Jimin's speculation.
However, the goose is really not wild, but domestic.
After completing the transaction, Zhou Jimin said to the old man: "Can you hunt wild boars?" If I can, can I go hunting in the hills near your village? ”
Next year is a special time, so he will have to find a way to store some meat.
