Chapter 208: Selling the Monkey
Qiao He looked at the back of Su Qingfeng and the others leaving, her eyes flickered slightly, and she frowned slightly, "I know the monkey...... Can it really be sold for money? ”
Since Ma Chenggong left, the last time he watched a movie in the village, he was torn by Ma Ligang's kid in front of him, and Qiao He's life as a widow has become more and more sad.
It was okay before, she still had at least a fig leaf on her.
But now...... Almost all the men in the village know that she is not a serious woman, and even with a group of second-rate and old widowers, they think about having a spring breeze with her every day, and those who are less timid also want to rub some oil.
Qiao He naturally didn't resist these, otherwise he wouldn't have successfully mixed with Ma in the first place.
But here's the problem......
These stinky men are all pickers who only go in and can't leave.
Where is Qiao He willing to suffer?
Seeing that the family's food stocks were slowly bottoming out, Qiao He finally couldn't help it.
Taking advantage of today's opportunity, I accidentally learned that the monkey can still be sold for money.
It's just that......
Qiao He looked at the one that fell to the ground, twisted his brows, and then quickly let go.
Who said she had to do it herself to get what she wanted?
As soon as he thought of Su Qingfeng's plastic bottle, full of monkeys, Qiao He's still charming face suddenly appeared with a smile of ambition.
……
After digging out the monkey in the dark overnight, when Su Qingfeng returned home, his already sleepy eyelids couldn't be raised.
It's just that even so, thinking of the fact that he had handled so many monkeys just now, Su Qingfeng was still a little embarrassed, and he only felt that his skin was itchy.
He was stunned, took a cold shower, and after wiping it clean, he casually put on a vest, lay on the kang, and let out a comfortable sigh.
The window was ajar, and the voices of the nearby could be heard, and occasionally the sound of frogs echoed one after another, and when Su Qingfeng fell asleep, he was in a daze, and there was only one thought......
Whose feet stink so much!
Tomorrow before going to bed, the group must be supervised to wash their feet!
……
Su Qingfeng was not woken up by the biological clock the next day.
Instead, he was woken up by a group of chirping cubs.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a plastic bottle attached to his face, and there were dense monkeys crawling on the wall of the plastic bottle.
No matter how bold Su Qingfeng was, when he saw this scene, he was completely sleepy from the impact of this picture, and his heart was pounding.
When he looked at it again, he found that it was a group of half-grown boys from the tiger head, looking at him with a smile, "Brother Qingfeng, go and sell the monkey." ”
Su Qingfeng wiped his thoughts, and after relieving himself, he said angrily, "Sell a ball, so many children, if I take them all to the town, if you lose a few, you will be fine, I will not have good fruits to eat." ”
Su Qingfeng wasn't really reluctant to take them to town, but he was suddenly woken up, and he inevitably had a little anger.
The tiger heads were not afraid of him, and continued to smile.
"Brother Qingfeng, we've all figured out what you said! The smaller ones, definitely can't go. Even if we were willing, the adults in the family would not agree. We all counted, and each of us caught a few. I was in charge of going to the town to sell the monkeys, and when I got the money, I divided the money according to the quantity. ”
Seeing that the tiger head was talking eloquently, Su Qingfeng couldn't help but have a little smile on his face.
Seeing the situation, the tiger head hit the snake more and more, and grinned, "Brother Qingfeng, it's okay, you give a word!" ”
Seeing this, Su Qingfeng couldn't help but speak, "You have arranged everything properly, where is my place to speak?" Then ...... Go! ”
"Yay!"
A group of children became excited and jubilant, Su Qingfeng looked at it, even if it was the New Year, they were not so happy.
He became more and more aware of how rare it was for most people in Sujia Village to have an extra income in addition to year-round work.
……
After breakfast, Su Yuantie looked at the back seat of the Phoenix brand bicycle with palpitations, and saw the tiger head happily sitting in the back seat, he opened his mouth and stopped talking.
But in the end, he chose to keep his mouth shut and didn't say anything.
To be honest, the moment I got on the bike, I was quite excited.
Especially when he saw the envious eyes of the little friends around him, the tiger head unconsciously straightened his chest, and he was even more proud than Su Qingfeng, the owner of the bicycle.
Su Qingfeng was holding a piece of cake in his mouth, and he was quite happy to see the expression of the tiger head.
He smiled and said, "Tiger head, you can put a hundred and twenty hearts, I will be a cyclist thief." ”
The tiger head "uh-huh" a few times and nodded frantically.
He has real trust in Su Qingfeng.
He put all the plastic bottles in a nylon bag that he had specially found, and then hugged Su Qingfeng's waist and sat firmly.
Call~
A gust of wind blew.
Su Qingfeng was like stepping on hot wheels, stepping on the dew, and rushed to the town.
The tiger's mouth opened wide, allowing the cool breeze to pour into his mouth, trying to make a sound, but he couldn't say anything at all.
Su Qingfeng is not bad at driving.
It's the driving skills are too good!
The bike was crushed on a dirty road, and at times, it was so bumpy that it almost flew up.
Riding all the way down, the tiger head wanted to cry without tears, only to feel that his buttocks were broken into eighteen petals.
finally came to the acquisition station, and the tiger head hurriedly lined up at the end of the line.
The staff of the acquisition station looked lazy, and when they were acquiring, the tone was not very good.
Tiger Head didn't think it was anything before, but when it was his turn to sell it himself, he still couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Especially when the staff of this acquisition station is not very good.
He looked around, and Su Qingfeng didn't know where he had gone.
He became more and more anxious in his heart, and when he looked around, no one seemed to think that he was going to come to the acquisition station to sell the monkey.
Tiger Head felt more and more apprehensive.
When it was his turn, Rao was the most daring child in the village, but after all, he was at this age, and when he was excited, he stumbled when he spoke.
"Here...... Collect and collect ......"
The staff at the acquisition station were a little impatient, and just when they wanted to say something, they saw Su Qingfeng pushing a bicycle over.
The man looked at it for a while, and found that the bicycle was actually a Phoenix brand!
Look at Su Qingfeng again, although he is not wearing a Mao suit, his clothes are half-new, there is no whitishness, and there are no patches.
His face changed, and suddenly turned from gloomy to sunny, and when he looked at the tiger's head, his tone softened a lot.
"What do you sell?"
Seeing the smile on the staff's face, Tiger Head couldn't help but feel relieved.
Coupled with Su Qingfeng standing beside him, he returned to his usual boldness, and his words became much more fluent.
"I have a monkey here, do you take it here?"
The staff looked at him in surprise, obviously not expecting that there were still people who knew that the monkey could be sold for money.
His tone was more gentle, "Take." A pound of three cents. ”
When the tiger head heard this price, his eyes subconsciously widened.
A pound of three cents?!
They can catch about three catties in one night, doesn't this mean that they alone can earn nearly a dime a night!
And now in the countryside, a strong laborer only earns a dime by doing a whole day's work, doesn't this mean that they can be comparable to a strong laborer as a small child!
A dime a day, a dollar for ten days.
For two months in the summer, it's six dollars!
If the whole family goes out at night, maybe they will earn more.
After getting the money, the tiger head still looked like a dream.
Seeing him like this, Su Qingfeng poured cold water on him in order to avoid this kid's hot head.
"This catches the monkey's money, and it's not so easy to make. If you think about it, there are so many people in the village and the knowledge on the mountain, maybe there will be people from the neighboring villages who will come to catch them. ”
"Besides, the acquisition station in the town can't be so known all at once. Got it...... Make some quick money at most. If you kid delays studying because of this, I won't take you next time. ”
As soon as he heard that Su Qingfeng still had a way to make money, the tiger head quickly came to his senses.
And he swore an oath.
"Brother! You're my brother! Don't worry, when I go back, I'll let that group of cubs know your good ......."
What are these words......
It was as if he was leaving......
Su Qingfeng silently complained in his heart.
The two of them walked forward, Su Qingfeng had already told Hutou and his grandmother that when he got off work, he would take this kid back.
This kid is not very old, and he still has such a "huge amount of money" in his pocket, Su Qingfeng is not worried that he will go back alone.
If he didn't have that much money, Su Qingfeng would have run away with him.
Rural baby.
Especially the male baby.
Rough raising.
Not so much detailed.
Just when he walked into a corner alley, Su Qingfeng's footsteps involuntarily stopped.
He saw a familiar figure.
"Brother Guo, you can borrow me this time. I swear, I'll pay you back next month. Yesterday...... I was just one step away from it, and I turned it over. I've been lucky lately, and I'll pay you back next month even with interest. ”
Su Qingfeng looked at He Qianqian's side face, and was in a trance for a while, almost unable to recognize him.
Compared with He Qianjian, who combed his big back and always squinted at people in his memory, he was unkempt and unkempt, and Su Qingfeng seemed to be able to smell the smell of his body even if he was not close to him.
It is said that it is born from the heart, Su Qingfeng doesn't know if it's an illusion, when he looks at He Qianqian's face, he always feels that his facial features now have an indescribable sense of obscenity, and even with his demeanor, he is hunched over.
Brother Guo in the entrance of He Qian, holding a loose cigarette between his fingertips, slowly swallowed the clouds and spit out the fog.
Seeing He Qianqian like this, he patted He Qianqian's cheek with a smile, "Brother Qianqian, I haven't seen you for so many days, why are you mixed up like this?" Why are you still calling my brother? Didn't you have a little Guo at the beginning, and you were very happy? ”
He Qianqian was patted on the cheek, and there was a flash of humiliation in his eyes, but in the end, he just smiled and continued to speak with a shy face:
"Didn't you have long eyes before...... Brother Guo, look, this borrowing money ......"
Brother Guo took the last puff of the cigarette, then threw the cigarette butt and crushed it with a duct shoe, and then smiled, "He Qianqian, have you ever heard of a sentence?" ”
He Qianqian was at a loss.
Brother Guo smiled again, "Borrowing urgency is not borrowing poverty." How much do I want to lend money to a gambler like you, and then let you always owe me money and be my uncle? ”
After speaking, Guo Sheng turned around and left directly.
The moment he turned around, he also saw Su Qingfeng's footed figure, he was stunned at first, and then as if he recognized Su Qingfeng, he glanced back at He Qianqian, revealing an interesting smile.
Immediately, he smiled and nodded at Su Qingfeng, and then left.
He Qianjin seemed to be aware of it, and when he looked at it from afar, he happened to see Su Qingfeng's indifferent gaze.
At this moment, he subconsciously compared Su Qingfeng's state with his own state.
In an instant, his face turned red.
He Qianjin walked briskly towards the outside of the alley almost at a running speed, and during the walk, Su Qingfeng also saw his unsuitable adhesive shoes.
What about the original leather shoes?
It's not going to be used as gambling money, is it?
……
State-run hotel.
When Su Qingfeng came in, he also brought a bottle of monkey.
Lin Mingliang was from the city, and when he saw this thing, he was so frightened that his hairs stood on end.
Yu Hai looked at this and smiled.
"This is a monkey, right? I heard that it is fried in oil, and it should be quite delicious. ”
Although Lin Mingliang didn't like Yu Hai very much, he didn't want to make it too ugly, and when he saw that Yu Hai had the heart to talk, although he was reluctant, he still took care of it.
He frowned, looking at the dense insects, and had a feeling of fear, and rushed straight to the Heavenly Spirit Gai.
"This thing is really edible?!"
Su Qingfeng had already unscrewed the cap of the bottle and began to clean up.
"If you can eat it, you will know if you try it."
Seeing that Lin Mingliang didn't move, Yu Hai wanted to pat himself on the back, so he came to Su Qingfeng's vicinity and began to deal with the monkey.
This forced Lin Mingming's reflex out.
Yu Hai can be a vegetable washer, why can't he?!
Though...... He used to be just a vegetable washer.
If you say, at first, Lin Mingliang still had some doubts about whether this thing could be delicious.
But when the aroma of frying came out, Lin Mingming's heart, which was originally determined not to eat, gradually wavered.
Su Qingfeng was still there to persuade: "Pinch the head and remove the tail, the middle is full of meat, this thing has a higher protein content than meat, you really don't eat it?" ”
Lin Mingliang tried to restrain Harazi, but still shook his head.
What is protein or not, anyway, he doesn't understand, he would rather eat beef and pork.
Insects, where can they be delicious?
However, just when the temptation of Lin Mingliang was about to fail, a bearded man walked in outside the state-run hotel.
That man is surprisingly tall in this era, Su Qingfeng estimated that he was about 1.9 meters tall, and he was unbelievable in the seventies when there was a shortage of materials, and he didn't know what he ate to grow up with.
Chen Meilan dared to shout, "The hotel hasn't reached its business hours yet." ”
The bearded man poked out the window, pointed to the small blackboard next to him, and smiled, "Your blackboard, it's not written, and there is a monkey to eat today." ”
A few people in the back kitchen glanced at each other, and suddenly felt that the person who came was not good.
Between the electric light and stone fire, Su Qingfeng's mind turned sharply, and he subconsciously picked up the dishes and chopsticks:
"Taste?"
Because I really can't find out the price of the monkey, according to the day's work of strong laborers is converted into 1 cent, an ordinary person, catch 300 in a night, about 100 pounds and 100 pieces, so the price is 3 (changed) cents per catty. If there is a real price, the babies can leave a message, and I will change it immediately after seeing it
