After rebirth, cute twins want dad to hug them
Chapter 89 Book (Additional chapters during holidays)
Su Bai nodded, walked over, and followed Su Mingrui's instructions. Everyone, big, medium and small, picked a handful each.
These days, every household needs a hoe.
The villagers are willing to spend money on food.
The biggest hoe costs five yuan a piece, and you can get one yuan off if you get old iron.
These three models of hoes cost five yuan, three yuan, and two yuan respectively.
The sizes are different and the uses are different.
The largest ones are basically used for land reclamation.
It is heavy and sharp, and can dig out some tough small tree roots with just one hoe.
The middle model is used for turning soil in fields.
The small one is used for digging holes to grow vegetables, which is light and labor-saving.
Su Bai picked three hoes.
After deducting three yuan, Su Bai took out ten yuan from his pocket and handed it to Zhang Blacksmith.
"Uncle Zhang, I'll give you the money."
Zhang Tiejiang quickly took it and saw that it was a great unity. He quickly said:
"I'll go inside and get the money to change for you. Just wait!"
As he spoke, the man walked inside.
Su Bai nodded, didn't say anything, and waited outside the door with a nylon bag.
Several villagers sat at the door smoking dry cigarettes and chatting with each other.
Su Bai leaned over and listened for a while.
I generally understand.
It seems that someone in the next village shot and killed a tiger on the mountain a few days ago.
He carried it to Qing'an County to hang red flowers and tie it with red cloth to receive the award.
The bonus is thirty yuan.
Much envied by everyone.
A few people were smoking dry cigarettes and blowing calf leather, when suddenly they heard someone shouting.
"Blacksmith Zhang! Blacksmith Zhang! Come out to collect things!"
The voice was high pitched.
The accent is from Qing'an County.
This sound immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Su Bai also looked sideways.
I found that someone was driving a donkey and pulling a cart, and the back was full of things.
"Oh! Why are you here, rag collector? You've been here for a few days to earn money from our blacksmith Zhang!"
"That's right! What are you collecting? Show us what good things there are in the city!"
"Don't tell me, we don't know how to use things that people in the city don't want! Why do we need those things!"
"..."
A group of people were chattering.
The rag collector came over with a smile, didn't say anything, and sat down directly on the pillar in front of the door.
"It's hard to make ends meet! It's windy, sun-drenched and rainy every day. It's hard!"
While waiting, the man was willing to chat with everyone and said cheerfully:
"I don't have a mother-in-law. If I had a mother-in-law, who would be willing to go out and suffer like this? I can't make a lot of money, and it's a thankless effort!"
He clicked his tongue twice, took out the dry tobacco, twisted a small ball of tobacco and stuffed it in, lit it, and took two pleasant puffs.
Su Bai stood outside.
He listened for a while and then subconsciously glanced at the donkey cart.
At this sight, he was stunned.
That donkey cart...
The piles stacked up look like books?
Su Bai put down the nylon bag in his hand and walked towards the donkey cart.
They are all yellowed books.
Put random codes on the donkey cart.
Some of the newer ones were tied up with hemp ropes, while the older ones were piled directly in the corner, scattered in various directions, with a thick layer of dust and fingerprints on them.
It was probably thrown here randomly.
Su Bai glanced at these books, his eyes getting brighter and brighter.
"Well, may I ask, are you selling these books?"
At this moment, Blacksmith Zhang came out.
He was walking towards Su Bai and handed him three yuan.
Hearing Su Bai's words, he turned to the rag collector and shouted -
"Hey! Qi Genqun, I'm calling you! Buy something!"
Qi Genqun, who was sitting on the ground, raised his head and glanced lazily this way.
Only then did Su Bai see his appearance clearly.
A blue overalls, stained with stains, the trousers underneath were mottled and stained, the legs of the trousers were rolled up, and there was mud in the gaps.
Wearing a pair of Jiefang shoes on his feet, he must have just come from another village. The soles are covered with a thick layer of yellow mud.
The exposed calves were dark and shiny.
I guess it hasn't been washed for a few days.
He was wearing a liberation hat with a crooked brim, and his teeth were yellowed by smoke when he smiled.
"Come on!"
He placed the finished cigarette on the ground and knocked it.
Get up and walk this way.
"There isn't much iron today, look!"
Qi Genqun stood on tiptoe and pulled a nylon belt from the top of the high-riding donkey cart.
The iron objects inside collided, making a clanging sound.
These days, collecting rags basically involves walking through the streets.
Qi Genqun is in his early forties.
I started collecting rags when I was in my twenties.
This job is disgraceful, dirty and sloppy.
No little girl wants to be with him.
After dragging it until now, it will be like this for the rest of my life.
He collects rags and basically walks around villages where no one goes.
Collect everything.
Those villages were isolated and had no blacksmith shops, so the rotten ironware could only be sold.
Qi Genqun collected them and sold them to the blacksmith shop. He then went to the county town to collect some junk items from the county town, sorted them out himself, repaired them and sold them to the village.
In short, it is also a job of buying and selling.
But I don’t make much money, so I just make ends meet.
In addition, there is no mother-in-law at home, and she is slovenly and dirty. Many people are afraid when they see her.
Blacksmith Zhang reached out to take the nylon bag from Qi Genqun, picked it up, and said, "Okay, I'll calculate the money for you later."
He said, pointing to Su Bai, "This is the youngest son of Su Laosan in our village. He is very capable!"
"He wanted to buy something just now. I don't know what he wanted to buy. Just ask."
This is considered an introduction.
Su Bai smiled and handed over a cigarette.
"Uncle Qi."
he shouted.
Qi Genqun was stunned.
On the contrary, I felt a little at a loss.
Having been looked down upon by others all his life, he never expected to be respectfully called uncle by a young junior.
"You're not an uncle, why are you so polite?"
Qi Genqun grinned and rubbed his hands again, "I can't get used to smoking that stuff, as long as I have dry cigarettes!"
Su Bai just smiled and still raised his hand, "Take one and try it."
Only then did Qi Genqun take over.
The palms were covered with cracks, and the rough lines were filled with black mud.
He shrank back in embarrassment, took the cigarette, hung it on his ear, and wiped it on his body.
Su Bai said: "Uncle, are these books?"
Qi Genqun glanced at the donkey cart.
"Yes, the ones collected by other villages are all left behind by the educated youth from previous years."
Qi Genqun explained:
"This thing is too heavy. Those educated youths from the city have to go back. They can't take these things back, so they will all be thrown in the village."
"I'll collect it along the way. I can collect a lot for just a dime!"
"Sell it to the teachers in the city. You can sell a little, and sell the rest as scrap to barely earn some hard-earned money!"
Su Bai understood.
When the craze for educated youths to return home a few years ago started, a large number of educated youths packed their things almost overnight.
Returning home lightly, returning home like an arrow.
Forget books.
Even some of the more valuable things that cannot be taken back can only be thrown here.
New Year's Day is coming soon. I wish all readers a Happy New Year in advance! There will be more updates tomorrow~
With the new year and new atmosphere, I would like to recommend a few new books from my friends for readers to read when they have time.
First of all, I would like to recommend a fast-paced fantasy novel "The Empress of Destiny is still a pitiful little girl, so I'll cut her off":
I have become a cannon fodder by reading fantasy novels. I can see the character aura and past experiences of the characters in the book! Is the protagonist a child of luck? Then cut off the opportunity! Catch him plucking wool! Is the future Empress of Destiny still a little beggar? Abduct directly! Develop from scratch!
"On a blind date for a brother, the female CEO dragged me to get the certificate": Lying flat and useless, I became the "shield" used by my college roommate to deal with the family's pressure to get married! I went on a blind date on behalf of my brother, pretending to be a man trying to persuade him to leave the blind date, but the female CEO actually dragged me to get the certificate? !
"A Traditional Chinese Medicine Doctor Becomes a School Doctor, and a Crispy College Student Died on the Spot": Born in a family of traditional Chinese medicine, he accidentally traveled through time and became a school doctor, and all his patients were crispy college students? Are you already 20 years old? A Chinese medicine doctor said: "Don't watch the movie, the male college student died on the spot!"
