Chapter 73: "Eating Meat and Drinking Soup" (Seeking Follow-up)
Xu Deyong took off his skates and looked at the feet of the flat-headed young man and said, "Dude, your feet should be about the same size as mine, you wear and play first, and I'll talk to them." ”
The flat-headed young man subconsciously took it and said, "Oh, thank you......." ”
Xu Deyong got up and walked out with Gangzi and the others.
Gangzi lowered his head and said with a smile: "Master Yong, a few of them rushed into you and your friends blindly, what do you say, do you ask for wine at night, how to drink what you say." ”
Xu Deyong said lightly: "Drinking will be exempted, and such a thing will collapse in the future, that is, you didn't really take advantage, believe it or not, if I hadn't beaten you that day, and stopped you, that big Su Niu casually found a relationship and said, you have to go to labor reform if you don't eat guns." ”
When Yuyan and the others heard this, cold sweat broke out on their foreheads.
"Poof!"
Gangzi kicked on Yuyan again, and said with a calm face: "Don't thank Brother Yong for his fight and righteousness." ”
Yuyan hurriedly bowed his head and said, "Master Xie Yong, if you still don't get angry, you can fight a few more times." ”
Several other people also hurriedly apologized.
Zhang Sanhou glanced at each other, craned his neck and looked at his toes without speaking.
Xu Deyong said: "Come on, they are all raised by my mother's father, and in the future, I will do embarrassing things and find something serious to do." ”
"Yes, yes, we listen to Yongye."
……
Gangzi waited for them to be trained, then rubbed his hands and said: "Yongye, the board car you said before, I already have eyebrows, you can let me for a few more days, and promise to give you a change without spending a penny." ”
Xu Deyong smiled and said: "Now you don't want to buy and sell, you can exchange it, but you can't let people say what is not." ”
Gangzi nodded and said, "Don't worry, I guarantee that there will be no problems at all." ”
Xu Deyong stretched his waist and said: "Cheng, anyway, if there is a problem at that time, I will look for you, and if you can't find it, you will go to your master." ”
Gangzi: "......"
Xu Deyong turned around and went back after speaking, and he had to pay two cents for this one out and one in.
He was about to pay the money, and the gangzi who came over had already paid the money.
Xu Deyong glanced at him, and saw that he was the only one following, so he said, "What, what's the matter?" ”
Gangzi smiled and said, "It's okay, come in and have fun." ”
Xu Deyong didn't pay attention to him, sat on the wooden chair and waited, and soon the flat-headed young man came over with his wooden skates, took them off and said with a smile: "Hey, buddy, your skates are really good, much better than our earth skates." ”
Xu Deyong smiled and said: "You lift, you get what you pay for, and it is not as comfortable as professional skates." ”
The flat-headed young man said: "Dude, let's be honest, we can't afford to buy professional skates, we want to pool the money to ask you to make a pair of such wooden skates, you rely on craftsmanship to eat, you say a price." ”
Gangzi on the side couldn't help but prick up his ears when he heard this.
Xu Deyong glanced at him and said, "Go to the side." ”
Gangzi smiled and walked away.
This young man should be a high school or technical secondary school student, Xu Deyong narrowed his eyes and said: "Dude, you are a learned high-achieving student at first glance, if I sell you wooden skates, it won't be speculation, right?" ”
The flat-headed young man was stunned for a moment and said, "What kind of speculation are you relying on your craft to eat?" ”
In order to seek usurious profits, hoarding (i.e., speculation), playing with prices, and disrupting the market (i.e., inverting).
At this time, the definition of "speculation" was not as strict as it was later, and it was only the resale of bulk materials controlled by the state, such as grain, cloth, steel, etc., that would be arrested on the charge of "speculation".
The policymakers originally intended that the "method of ration distribution" was only a "temporary measure" and should be abolished when the supply of commodities was sufficient.
However, due to the high economic situation, the situation of tight supply and material shortages in various markets has not really improved, and the situation has been even worse in the "difficult period" of the following three years.
As a result, for almost the entire period of the planned economy, most commodities were to be supplied in rations by ticket.
In fact, in recent years, the state has been discussing "how to use the free market", and although the free market has fluctuated, it has always been legal, semi-legal, and illegal, and has been vaguely existing, and in fact a pattern has formed in which the planned price with an absolute advantage and a very weak market price coexist.
Many people may not know that from the second half of '56 to the summer of '57 in less than a year, after the state completed the socialist transformation, it briefly opened up the rural free market and carried out an exploration and practice in the field of circulation.
However, this time the results were not very good, and in the end, the free market was almost closed again.
This topic will be brought up a little bit later, and it should be able to say, well, it should be .......
Straight to the point!
The flat-headed young man briefly explained the current situation to Xu Deyong, and Xu Deyong immediately relieved himself, at least he had been fine for the past two years.
Okay, I'm afraid to eat by myself!
Get it up!
Seeing Xu Deyong's eyes shining, the flat-headed young man blinked and said, "That ......, your price should not be too much higher than the value of the thing itself, otherwise...... Well....... ”
Xu Deyong's eyes narrowed and said, "Then buddy, how much should my craft be worth?" The price you say, if it suits me, I'll make you a pair, if it's a waste of time...... ”
Xu Deyong kicked the ball back again.
The flat-headed young man thought for a while and said, "Is it the price?" The ice blades you said before are three pieces and eight ......, and the wood and hemp rope are not worth a few dollars, your craftsmanship ...... Two bucks? ”
Xu Deyong said lightly: "What do you mean to spend five yuan to make a pair of skates like mine!" ”
"Can't you?" The flat-headed young man licked his lips and said.
Xu Deyong thought for a while and said: "Yes, you should make a friend's friendship price, but all the materials need to be brought by yourself, I only charge you two yuan for manual fees, you are a cultural person, I will not talk about the cost of design knowledge." Of course, you can also find someone else to do it according to the gourd painting scoop, and I don't force it. ”
The flat-headed young man suddenly hesitated when he heard this, and said after a moment's silence: "I'll go and discuss it with my classmates." ”
"Feel free." Xu Deyong said noncommittally.
The flat-headed young man left to discuss with his classmates, and Gangzi leaned over with an iodine face and said: "Hey, Master Yong, you made these skates, the craftsmanship is really not good, if this thing is not expensive, there should be some market near these ice rinks in Sijiu City." ”
Xu Deyong said lazily: "You look like you have no brains, you didn't think you still have a little vision, since you see the market, you can find someone to do it yourself." ”
The corners of Gangzi's mouth twitched, and he said with a smile: "Guarding your great god, don't I have eyes and beads when I look for others!" ”
Xu Deyong closed his eyes and tapped his fingers on the chair, and said lightly: "What do you want to do?" ”
Gangzi immediately said: "You eat meat, and our brothers can drink soup with you, anyway, it's also a stroll when you're idle." ”
Xu Deyong pondered for a moment and said: "Who wants to drink soup if there is meat to eat, not to mention that the ice blades are made by a blacksmith, just make a pair of wooden shoes, and you can find someone to make it yourself." ”
Gangzi these people say that they are not good to listen to are the gangsters, the thieves of chickens and dogs, although they are not Meng Weijun, but they may not be used in the future.
A stick in one hand, a radish in the other!
Gangzi arched his hand and said: "Master Yong, this means to give us a way to make money, and when you look back, you will have a filial piety." ”
Xu Deyong said: "Besides, the wood of wooden shoes must find moderate hardwood, such as elm, locust wood, basswood, and ash." ”
"Iron birch is forgotten, that thing can carry bullets, and the hardness is twice as hard as ordinary steel, and Dasu used to make bearings!"
Gangzi: "......"
Suddenly I felt a little lonely.
Xu Deyong handed him the drawings of skates and skates: "Take them to the staff officer myself, and I'll come over tomorrow afternoon to get them." ”
"Master Xie Yong!" Gangzi clenched his fists and bowed deeply.
At this time, the flat-headed young man came over after deliberation and said, "Okay, we can prepare the materials ourselves, and how about handing them over to you in this place after school tomorrow afternoon?" ”
Xu Deyong nodded and said, "Okay, but the pattern of the wooden shoes is only engraved with four five-pointed stars on both sides." ”
The flat-headed young man glanced at the dragon-shaped pattern on Xu Deyong's wooden skates and said, "Can't it be the same as you?" ”
Xu Deyong said: "Chiseling is very time-consuming, don't talk about this pattern if you add money, you can customize any pattern you want." ”
Flat-headed youth: "......"
The corners of his mouth twitched: "More money? ”
Xu Deyong said: "According to the complexity of the pattern, this dragon needs three hairs. ”
The flat-headed young man said: "Then forget it, just follow what you say." ”
The other party said goodbye and left.
"Personal?" Gangzi admired thoughtfully: "Master Yong, you still have ideas, thank you for your guidance." ”
