Chapter 13 Possession of more than fifty dollars
Shen Lin collected electrical appliances in the past two days, and he also received three radios, but he didn't expect to encounter such a good thing.
"Big brother, your color TV is also going to be sold." Shen Lin handed a cigarette to the middle-aged man beside him and asked with a smile.
The middle-aged man shook his head and said, "This color TV has been broken for three or four years, and I have found several repair masters, but they have not been repaired." â
"In the end, our leaders found a master from our TV factory, but the master didn't find anything wrong."
"Thrown into this warehouse until now, if you want to remove the copper wire inside, you can take it. But the price can't be lower. â
The middle-aged man's words made Shen Lin stunned for a moment, he looked carefully at the color TV, and suddenly understood why this color TV couldn't be repaired by a few masters.
This is a color TV imported from abroad,In some places,There is a big difference between it and a domestic color TVă
If you can't understand the manual, you can't repair it, but it's normal.
"Big brother, look at this color TV, how about I give three yuan?" Shen Lin hesitated for a moment and offered a price that he thought was quite reasonable.
"Okay, three is three." The middle-aged man silently thought about it in his heart, and then said to Shen Lin happily.
Shen Lin suppressed the joy in his heart, you must know that this color TV was a rare object at that time, even if you have money, you may not be able to buy it.
Shen Lin, who was full of joy, packed up the waste newspapers and cardboard boxes in the warehouse non-stop, and then pulled the things and walked towards the scrap collection station.
The fat man at the scrap yard was already an acquaintance of Shen Lin at this time. In the past two days, Shen Lin not only gave the fat man a cigarette every time he came, but also stuffed the fat man with two boxes of good cigarettes.
Looking at Shen Lin who was full of loads, the fat man smiled and said: "Shen Lin, you are really rich this time, look at the things in your car, tsk, you have to earn five yuan this time." â
Shen Lin handed the fat man a cigarette and said, "Hey, I also rely on the sky to eat, it's all based on luck." If it weren't for the support of my uncle's friends, this mission would not have been my turn. â
"Hey, in four or five days to pack up the inventory, I won't have a good life!"
The fat man took the cigarette handed over by Shen Lin, and the smile on his face became brighter and brighter: "Shen Lin, with your uncle's support, you are still afraid of lack of work!" â
Speaking of this, he glanced at the color TV in Shen Lin's car and said, "Yo, you have received this big color TV?" You're amazing! â
"It cost three yuan, and I'm going to pull it to the house as an ornament, even if I can't see it, someone in the family will have face." Shen Lin looked like he wanted to hold up the scene.
The fat man's eyes flashed with a hint of relentlessness. This kid has a good uncle is enviable, but this pattern, this vision, is a little smaller.
"Alright, you go get the money." The fat man handed Shen Lin two receipts.
Shen Lin, who was already familiar with the business here, took the list to get the money, and the fat man looked at Shen Lin's back and scolded in his mouth: "This kid is really lucky, he earns more than ten yuan a day, and if he comes for a month, he will almost catch up with my salary for a year." â
"Why don't I have such a good uncle!"
On a July day, the child's face changes when it is said.
It was obviously a bright sun, but in a blink of an eye, a cloud covered the sky, and the raindrops the size of beans kept falling crackling.
Shen Lin, who had collected another cart of old newspapers, was pulling the car to the acquisition station at this time, and when the rain fell, he pulled the car and hurriedly ran under the eaves of the roadside.
That is, in the time of a few steps, dense raindrops, have fallen rapidly. At this time, Shen Lin didn't care about hiding from the rain first, after he put the flatbed truck away, he quickly picked up two bundles of newspapers and rushed towards the eaves.
If the newspaper is drenched too much, it will perish, and it will not sell at a good price.
So, the people who sheltered from the rain saw a young man in a vest, rushing into the rain again and again, moving bundles of waste paper under the eaves.
In three minutes, Shen Lin moved all the newspapers under the eaves, but at this time, his body was completely soaked, not to mention, the sweat and rain on his face could no longer be distinguished, and he was tired and panting.
Even so, Shen Lin didn't dare to delay, he quickly rushed over and moved down the old color TV that was covered with thin plastic sheeting.
After completing all this, Shen Lin breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at the flatbed truck that was drenched in the heavy rain, and his heart became more and more urgent.
The three-wheeled one with the top must be made as soon as possible.
The rain came and went quickly, that is, in half an hour, the pouring rain stopped silently, and the sky after the clouds showed the sun again.
The weather was a lot cooler all of a sudden, but there was a lot of stagnant water in the potholed streets, Shen Lin was wearing shorts, and he was not afraid of wading in the water, but the red star rubber shoes under his feet slid a step away.
Most of the people who took shelter from the rain dispersed one after another, and Shen Lin also began to load newspapers and color TVs on the flatbed truck. Even though he was young and strong, this was another trip to move down, and it still made him feel a pain in his arm.
Stepping on rubber shoes and wading in the water with one foot deep and one foot shallow, Shen Lin almost fell to the ground several times. Despite his caution, a layer of skin was rubbed off his arm by the handlebar.
Usually more than ten minutes away, Shen Lin had to walk for half an hour to get to the scrap yard.
"Xiao Shen, why are you here on this rainy day?" Liu Fatzi was drinking tea leisurely, and when he saw Shen Lin, a smile appeared on his face.
Shen Lin touched his pocket and hurriedly handed the box of Ximei cigarettes he had just bought to Liu Fatzi. This Ximei cigarette is a box of two or three cents, and in the county, even ordinary workers will not smoke such expensive cigarettes.
And Shen Lin has been stuffing Liu Fatzi with a box of Ximei cigarettes since the second day after selling scrap products basically every day.
"Brother Liu, the things are in the car, if I don't send them to you, I have no place to put them."
Skillfully taking the cigarette handed by Shen Lin, the smile on Fat Liu's face became more easy-going, he glanced at Shen Lin's car and said, "Xiao Shen, according to our rules here, we don't accept things on rainy days." â
"However, since you have already come, Brother Liu can't let you come for nothing, so let's move things over."
Shen Lin also knows the rules of the scrap station very well, and knows that there is no such thing as what Liu Fatzi said.
But when Liu Fatzi said this, he couldn't refute it, so he could only smile and say, "Thank you, Brother Liu." â
Swapping the full car of scrap for banknotes, Shen Lin waved his hand and said goodbye to Liu Fatzi. Because of the rain today, Shen Lin didn't earn as much as yesterday, but the money in his hands now added up to fifty yuan.
Fifty dollars is worth a month's salary for a skilled worker!
Compared with the money he earned today, Shen Lin was even happier that this time he not only received an old color TV, but also received a radio that was in good condition and did not seem to have any major problems.
Taking advantage of the fact that the butcher shop was not closed, Shen Lin bought a pound of fat meat with the meat ticket he begged for this morning, and he could refine some lard when he went home, and the stir-fried vegetables were also delicious.
