Chapter VI Sorting
As long as he wanted, the middle-aged man was very punctual, and when he went in, he had an empty satchel, and when he came out again, there was a clanging noise.
"Thank you, Lao Zheng."
"Okay, let's go, I'm going to go over and throw two packs of cigarettes to our leader."
"I'll bring you a few more packs next time."
"That's a good feeling." Lao Zheng grinned when he heard it, he was not polite at all.
"Cheng, next time I come over, I'll bring more, I'm leaving."
This man is also simply, he is a bicycle repairer, and he has been cooperating with Lao Zheng for two years, and he has saved a lot of money by digging for some old parts, and it is nothing to give two more packs of cigarettes.
After he left, Lao Zheng locked the door, and then slowly walked towards the stationmaster's office.
If people give face, they should not see it, but he can't really be that people don't see it, and what should be given must be meaningful, otherwise he will be too ignorant and live to a dog at an age.
In the office, Li Heng leaned on the quilt on the bed and flipped through the newspaper.
In the first few years, I was bored at night, there was no entertainment, and when there was only one person, I could only read books and flip through the newspapers to pass the time.
Otherwise, why do you think there are so many children in every family, and they are not idle.
"Knock Knock"
"Erheng, have you slept?"
"No, come in, the door is unlocked." Hearing Lao Zheng's voice, Li Heng sat up one by one.
Forty minutes, ok.
I don't know how long it was before, but at least I'm still sensible today.
Pushing open the door, Lao Zheng slowly walked in.
"It's nothing, I just want to ask if you still play chess?" As he spoke, he put his hand on the desk seemingly unintentionally, and two packs of cigarettes appeared there.
"No, it's nine o'clock, wash and sleep, I've worked all day today, and I'm a little tired."
"Okay, I'll go over and pack up the chessboard, and we'll continue tomorrow night."
"No problem."
Watching Lao Zheng walk out of the office and close the door with his hand, Li Heng glanced at the two boxes of cigarettes on the desk and smiled silently.
Is he rare?
Not at all, not to mention this half-cent cigarette, even Huazi with a filter is not uncommon.
He didn't smoke much in this life, and the cigarette he smoked when he played chess just now was the first cigarette today.
I can say this, but you can't give it.
After washing up on the sink table outside and sitting back on the bed, Li Heng took out the envelope containing the compensation money that he had received from the office today from the warehouse he was carrying.
There are not many things in the warehouse, and he has not caught any good things in the army all these years, but when he cleaned up the house during the day, he turned over a lot of treasures.
One is the watch I brought in my hand, which I got on the other side of the river in May-1.
It's a IWC watch, it seems to be a pilot's, the watch is not bad, at least it's accurate.
In addition, there were two guns, M1911A1, and a bunch of bullets, and at that time he thought that this gun was very easy to use, and the blocking ability was particularly strong.
Then there is a black three-edged military thorn and a dagger.
Then there is the allowance issued to the army, and there is nowhere to spend it, so they have all been saved, plus the discharge fee, a total of more than 2,000 yuan, counting the 1,000 compensation he received today, he now has a total of more than 3,000 and nearly 4,000 yuan, and he can be regarded as a small rich.
There are also a few tickets specially given by the leader when he left the army, a cotton coat ticket, this is a treasure, even if he has been in the army, he also knows that this kind of ticket is rare in the locality.
There are also ten one-pound meat tickets, and the leader gave him his teeth with a gurgling sound.
In the end, there is a five-pound cotton ticket, and when it is over, all his belongings are here.
Oh, and a futon.
However, when he cleaned up the house today, he did dig out a lot of good things, all of which were left by his father.
His father may not have thought that these things he had worked so hard to save would almost be cheaper than others, but fortunately, Director Wang of the office was a kind person.
Li Heng took out all the things in the warehouse, put away the guns and bullets again, and looked down at the things that were turned out of the house today, slightly stunned.
Especially the yellowed black and white photo, which is also the only photo of the family of four, and the only one left by his mother.
"Alas," he sighed, tucked the photo into the envelope that had just contained the money, and took it back to the warehouse.
Reaching out and opening a small wooden box, it contained a passbook, a few tickets, a few pieces of gold jewelry, and two large yellow croakers.
He knew some of these jewelry, some of which were said to have been bought by his father when he married his mother, and a few of which were his mother's dowry.
The two big yellow croakers were brought out from home when they went to Sijiu City, and they brought a total of three and used up one.
There are only three tickets, which are three-pound meat tickets, which should be what his father wants to keep for the New Year.
There is a lot of money in the passbook, and maybe after the younger brother works, he will also hand over the salary he earns to his father for safekeeping, totaling more than 1,900 yuan.
I guess it's been a lot of time, right? Li Heng looked at the amount of money on the passbook and smiled slightly, laughing and laughing, tears blurred his eyes.
It was the first time he shed tears since he heard the news of his father's accident with his brother.
He knew that he was determined to be a soldier and hurt the old man's heart, but he was still silently saving money for himself to marry his daughter-in-law, and he was trying to fulfill his promise to his wife before he died.
Li Heng raised his hand to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes, put the passbook back into the wooden box, and put it into the warehouse.
He sat on the bed for a moment, and then poured out all the tickets in the last envelope.
Hey, there's a lot of tickets.
Meat tickets, sugar tickets, bicycle tickets, and radio tickets, huh? How about two bike tickets?
Oh, yes, it should be that the government gave compensation to one of them, and the school gave another one.
Now it's good, the bike is in hand!
There are also cloth tickets, watch tickets, and even a ticket for a floor fan.
It's all in short supply, and now it's completely out of nowhere.
However, when he thought that these things were bought by his father and younger brother with their lives, he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
"Alas~" The two lives together are not as much as the sighs of today's day.
After everything was put into the warehouse, he fell on his back on the bed, thinking about nothing, and just lay there emptying his brain.
