Summer to winter, today's tattered Hou'er has become famous in several nearby alleys.

This fame comes from his craftsmanship, and now in this year, the emphasis is on the new three years, the old three years, and the sewing and mending for another three years.

This is true not only for clothes, but also for all the big and small items in life. Not to mention the bicycle, a bicycle in this year is comparable to a luxury car in later generations, and few people throw it away directly when it is broken. Although Hou Dalin's scrap collection station also received a few cars, there was no way to see those rotten ones, and they really lost the value of maintenance.

But even so, Hou Dalin didn't let it go, he still "rubbed" it again and put it in his repair shop.

These bikes look like they're all new, but there's no problem with riding them. But it has been placed in front of the door for more than a month, and not a single one has been sold.

It's not that others dislike these cars that are too broken, the main reason is that Hou Dalin can't give people a certificate, and if he can't open a certificate, he can't get a steel seal, if such a car is found, it will be a treat with stealing.

This is also because he has no experience, and when he knew that he received it, he asked the other party to bring the certificate of stamping together, and it was worth giving a few more dollars for this.

But he is not in a hurry, and he is not making a fortune from this.

In these two months, what really made him rich was the parts. For example, if you repair a bicycle and change it, the new one will cost more than 30, and the old one will probably be between 15 and 20. Zhao Ye relied on his own ability to process a few wheels, and with the inner and outer tires coming in from the parts factory, one could earn more than a dozen yuan. If the other party is willing to ask for a new one, then it will earn more.

Due to his low manual fees, all kinds of accessories are basically the original price or even lower, and his fame has been played out.

The people who patronize his business the most are those who ride three-wheelers, whether they are delivering goods or pulling people, who like to come to him to repair their cars.

Not only can you repair your car here, but you can also collect scrap by the way. These professional "rentals" have already tasted the sweetness here, as long as he collects it here, these people will help him collect it when they walk the streets and alleys. Although you may not be able to buy a few dollars, it adds up to a lot, and occasionally with good luck, you can catch up with Hou Dalin to offset them with materials.

The supplies to offset are good things, such as eggs and fish. If you have a big item, you might be able to get a rabbit or something.

On this day, Hou Dalin wore a cotton coat and continued to sit at the door of his house waiting for business. He drank tea and listened to the radio, and from time to time he threw a few pieces of chopping wood into the stove next to him to make the fire in the stove stronger.

Just as he was about to dream, the curtain of the door was suddenly lifted.

Entered, a man and two women, both dressed in clean and new military uniforms. In these days, wearing military uniforms is a trend, but it does not mean that they are soldiers. The difference is simply whether there is a collar badge or not.

"Please, do you have anything you want to repair?" Hou Dalin said the lines skillfully, and the smile on his face was multi-stylized.

"Well, I want to fix my watch, can you fix it?" One of the three girls asked.

"What kind of watch? In the case of watches, it is estimated that it will take a little effort, mainly to see that the parts are not complete. When Hou Dalin saw that the other party wanted to repair the watch, he knew that these were all rich masters. These days, watches are a luxury.

"Oh, it's not a watch, it's a watch." The girl took out a small horseshoe watch from her army-green satchel and put it on Hou Dalin's table.

"Oh, it's a horseshoe watch, it can be repaired. What's wrong? ”

"If you don't go accurately, you stop when you go. We walked to several places where we repaired the watch, and all of them said that they couldn't fix it. You can help me take a look. "The girl speaks softly, and it sounds like a delicate and feminine feeling. Even though it's winter, you can feel like the temperature around you has risen by a few degrees.

"I'll take it apart first, are you sure you're going to fix it?" Hou Dalin took the horseshoe watch, signaled to the other party, and was ready to do it.

"Well, you can fix it."

"Okay." As he spoke, Hou Dalin took out the tool box for repairing the watch from the drawer, took out the tools and began to get started.

The horseshoe watch was opened, and it could be seen from the parts inside that this watch was indeed some years old. However, it is precisely because of this that some parts of the interior have a thick layer of oil sludge.

"Girl, you went to someone else's shop, did they tell you if any part was broken?"

"Well, it's a clockwork problem, and the gears aren't good." The girl replied very quickly.

Hou Dalin didn't look up, and continued to disassemble the things in his hand, and after he completely disassembled them, he found that the problem seemed to be a little different from what the other party said.

The clockwork is indeed a little old, but the sludge on the gears is still very even, especially in a few screw parts, and there are no traces of movement. Other watch repair masters have such great ability? You don't need to take it apart to see that the gears are not good?

"Girl, this watch can be repaired, but there are a lot of things that need to be replaced. If you replace it, it will probably cost more than 30 yuan, do you think you still repair it? ”

"So expensive? More than thirty, I am afraid that I don't need to add a few dollars to buy a new one. Can it be cheaper? ”

"Is this still expensive? That's it, I haven't told you about the labor fee, just the cost of parts, you have to pay this amount. ”

"Well, I can't fix it. Big brother, do you recycle here? When the girl asked this, her voice became a little trembling. I don't know if it's distressing or nervous.

"What? Want to sell? How much are you going to sell? ”

"Two, twenty lines?"

"Girl, it's a bad watch, and if you want to sell it, it's not a watch, it's a rag. In my case, the rags aren't worth that much. ”

"Oh, you can't say that, this watch, you can repair it and sell it to others, who doesn't know this. Aren't the bicycles at the door the ones you collect and sell? We're going to be twenty, really not much. At this time, another woman who came with her began to beat the side drum. And the man never spoke, and he didn't even pull down the scarf that covered most of his face.

"Hehe, I really can't take twenty. We are a regular unit, and there is a set price for receiving things. ”

"Then you say, how much can you give?"

"Fifteen, this also depends on the fact that you are a girl, and I don't want you to run for nothing, this is the maximum number within my rights. Do you add it up? ”

This time, without waiting for the two girls to speak, the man suppressed his voice and said, "Okay, just fifteen." ”
