Chapter 1076: Mixed Joy and Sorrow
Boss Liu is a middle-aged man of medium stature, quite fat, and has a sideways face. Hu Caigao greeted him and said, I've been waiting for you for a long time.
What are you looking for me? I'm looking for you for help. Boss Liu and Hu Caigao, who entered the house, talked to each other.
When Boss Liu knew Hu Caigao's intentions, he flatly refused, I have no money to borrow. Seeing that Boss Liu had no room for negotiation, Hu Caigao did what he needed and said, so be it! I have three rooms, which are much stronger than this low house, and I will sell you two rooms? Boss Liu pondered for a moment and said, sell two rooms, what price do you offer?
Two rooms are a total of 6,000 yuan. After Hu Caigao answered, Boss Liu bargained with him again, and finally finalized it with 4,000 yuan, but Boss Liu said that he would have to see the house tomorrow, Hu Caigao begged him to pay a little deposit first, at least 1,000 yuan, if he didn't like his house, the deposit would be refunded.
How can I have any cash? Tomorrow morning, wouldn't it be enough for you to pick up hundreds or thousands of duck eggs, and count them according to the real number, as a deposit to pay you? Boss Liu looked at the two baskets containing duck eggs in the corner of the wall and had a whim.
That's not going to work. I want cash to go to the hospital to treat patients. Hu Caigao said.
Boss Liu snorted him, why are you so stupid, isn't it money to transport duck eggs to the street and sell them? Hu Caigao was silent.
In the early morning of the next day, Hu Caigao came to Boss Liu again, and Boss Liu asked the third child to drive out a flock of ducks in a row of duck sheds, so that Hu Caigao could pick up duck eggs. Hu Caigao asked Boss Liu's two empty baskets, and picked up a total of 1,100 duck eggs in the duck shed, full of a load, when Hu Caigao was about to leave, Boss Liu told him to pick up the door of the house for the time being, he didn't understand the intention, and saw Boss Liu looking at his three houses up and down, left and right, and he understood, Boss Liu was looking at the house, he was afraid that it would not be right, and he would not sell his house, so he pointed to his house and boasted vigorously, the wall was blue brick to the top, and there were three high low houses where your Boss Liu lived.
Boss Liu is also a person who has seen the world, and thinks that Hu Caigao's asking price is not high, if he is in the city, he wants to sell two similar rooms, as little as tens of thousands, and as many as hundreds of thousands. Hu Caigao felt that the house was something that could not be contained, so he simply opened it and let Boss Liu go to the inner room to see, he looked at the wooden floor and said happily, if I bought it, I would live upstairs.
Because he was very satisfied, Boss Liu was also worried that Hu Caigao would regret it in the future, so he took out a pen and paper and wrote in the form of an agreement: Hu Caigao agreed to sell two of his three houses to Liu Dafa, a professional duck farmer, worth 4,000 yuan, which was offset by duck eggs, 1 yuan per duck egg, a total of 4,000 pieces.
When the two sides signed, Liu Dafa suddenly used a pen to add the word "east" in front of the "two rooms" in this sentence. Hu Caigao said, sell the two rooms in the west to you. Liu Dafa found a far-fetched reason to curb him, my name is Liu Dafa, the fortune of Fa, the east to the address of Muwang, Wangfa Wangfa, according to my heart. If I want to buy two rooms on the west side, I won't buy them.
Hu Caigao was worried about the urgent need to spend money to treat Hu Feng, so he had to acquiesce. Liu Dafa took a piece of paper and transcribed it, and then signed each other's copies for record.
Hu Caigao took Hu Caicai's truck again to transport a load of duck eggs to the city, got out of the car, he suddenly thought that these two baskets of duck eggs are also money, why not pick up the director of the inpatient department, and tell him to see how much medical expenses can be paid to Hu Feng, in case it doesn't work, and then pick the duck eggs to the bazaar wholesale to the egg sellers.
Hu Caigao followed this line of thought, carrying duck eggs across a few streets, and in front of him was the county hospital. He rested for a while, carefully picked the duck eggs from the first floor to the sixth floor, and when he approached the office of the director of the inpatient department, he happened to pass by the No. 7 ward where Hu Feng lived, he turned his neck to look at the door, why Hu Feng's hospital bed was empty.
Just when he was wondering, a tall woman who was the companion of the patient in the next bed asked him who he was looking for, and he asked, "Do you know where the patient on this bed has gone?"
The tall woman walked to the door and said with a solemn expression that the patient was gone, and it was a young man. Hu Caigao wanted to put the duck egg on his shoulder, but it seemed too late to put it, for fear of missing a word.
Hearing this, he refused to believe his ears, and said with some nervousness, it was a young man, what was wrong with him? The tall woman said, "At about 3 o'clock in the morning today, I was sleeping in a daze on the hospital bed next to me, and I was suddenly woken up by the cry of a child and a cub......
Hu Caigao hadn't finished listening, his eyes were hot, and tears poured out. At this time, he inquired about the nurses passing by, only to know that Hu Feng's body was placed in the morgue, although it was expected, his mood was very sad, and he picked the duck eggs downstairs, asked a person on the left, asked a person on the right, wanted to exchange the goods for money as soon as possible, but the passers-by did not talk to him, and the duck eggs naturally could not be sold, so he simply took the trouble to pick it up in the bazaar and "planted" it to a duck dealer.
Originally, according to the current price of duck eggs of 1 yuan, 1100 is 1100 yuan, but the duck dealer said that he had a lot of goods, not for the time being, Hu Caigao and found other duck dealers, did not want, and then found the duck dealer at the beginning, sorry, cut the price of 300 yuan, Hu Caigao only got 700 yuan, he carried the empty basket, and rushed to the county hospital to find the morgue, led in by a security guard of the hospital.
Seeing Hu Feng's body, Hu Caigao was even more sad, he wiped a handful of tears and asked the security guard, where is the deceased's mother?
They may have returned to their hometowns to call for someone, and the patient's body was stored in the morgue, and relatives had to pay for it. The security guard spoke in a serious manner.
I am his relative, I will pay how much money, and immediately call a car to transport his body. Hu Caigao immediately paid 150 yuan for the storage of the body, and then went to the street to call a farm truck to transport Hu Feng's body back to his hometown for burial.
Gong Lanying returned not to Linjiazhuang, where she lived, but rushed directly to Hujiazhuang to find Hu Caigao, and happened to meet Hu Caigao, who was transporting the goods back, only to know that Hu Caigao carried a load of duck eggs into the city with his truck. Gong Lanying was going to return to the county again, Hu Caicai sent her in a truck, and halfway through the car, she met the agricultural vehicle rented by Hu Caigao carrying Hu Feng's body as a hearse.
After Hu Feng's body was buried, Hu Caigao and Gong Lanzhen, who came to burn incense on paper, often met at the grave, and on the "last seventh" of 7749, someone in the village knew about their young romance and knew that the foundation of this relationship was still there, so they pulled the string and said, you can't be a young couple in the past, but now you can be an old partner!
In fact, they have long meant this. Hu Caigao didn't want to do it secretly like in the past, so he went to the civil affairs department with Gong Lanying to go through the marriage formalities, and since then they have become a legal couple.
Later, Hu Caigao simply sold another room to Liu Dafa, a professional duck farmer, and he lived in Gong Lanying's house in Linjiazhuang, enjoying his old age and spending his evening with her.
