Be a charter woman in the chronology

Chapter 8 The first day of the charter woman

There were so many dates at home that Zhou Ying was happy at first, but within a few days she began to feel anxious.

Jujubes can't be kept at all, let alone put them in caves, even if they are sealed with buckets and sunk in a well to freeze, they will still go bad.

Zhou Ying was very worried. Seeing that the jujubes in the cellar had shriveled a lot, they would definitely go bad after a few days. Waste of food was the most deserving thing for a farmer to be struck by lightning.

After thinking and thinking, Zhou Ying finally decided to find time to dry the fruits, so as to survive.

Tong Siyu is also very worried, what worries her is that she has a jujube stone now, but where should she go to use spirit beads to give birth to dates, she has already saved nearly ten drops of psychic liquid in her small bamboo tube, and these days, nothing but water in the water tank at home Put a little in his mouth, sneakily pour a little into Tong Zhenguo's foot medicine, the rest is useless at all.

Not to mention the vegetable garden at home, Tong Zhenguo poured the remaining spiritual liquid into the ground after soaking his feet, which has caused the vegetables in the yard to grow crazily. The feudal superstition is so severe that I am afraid that I am going to go to the temple to make a wish.

After much deliberation, I decided to go to the back mountain to find a place with few people. Anyway, the upsurge of going up the mountain has faded a lot now, and the village has started to organize work again. The construction of the canal in the village is just the time for people.

Just do what you say, Tong Siyu took a small back bag and took the date stones and went out, ran to the mountain to find a place full of grass and trees with nothing to eat, where few people came, and took out the dates he had gnawed The core was dug a small pit and buried it, and watered it presumably with the diluted spirit liquid in a kettle.

The jujube core watered by the spiritual liquid seemed to sprout and take root twice as fast, and it grew to half a person's height in a short while. Tong Siyu continued to feed, and the jujube tree began to bloom and bear fruit in an instant. It didn't take long for a tree of red and bright jujubes appeared in front of her.

Tong Siyu happily kissed the kettle, picked a date and stuffed it into his mouth, it was so sweet!Much better than home.

The jujube trees on the small tree were quickly picked clean by Tong Siyu, not a single one was left, and he carried most of the jujubes on his back and walked home.

This half-backed date is not something to take home and eat, Tong Siyu is a woman who wants to make money, and whether she can eat meat during the Chinese New Year this year depends on whether the date can be sold.

Tong Siyu went home, put the sack into his room, found a bamboo basket that Tong Zhenguo had just woven, filled it with jujubes, covered it with a big leaf, and dug out his precious bamboo basket from under the pillow. He got a dime from his private house, and after arguing with Tong Zhenguo, he went out, got on a bullock cart and walked to the town.

The wobbly ox cart arrived in the town within a short time. Today is not the time to go to the market. There is very little traffic in the town, and the people who come and go are basically people who live in the town.

Tong Siyu was easy to be noticed by carrying a basket, so he simply pretended to be visiting relatives and asked a kind-looking aunt for directions: "Auntie, do you know where the transportation team's accommodation unit in our town is? It’s from Tong’s Village, this autumn I went up the mountain to pick some fruits to send to my dad to satisfy my gluttony, and my aunt also got some to try.” He grabbed a handful of dates and stuffed them into people’s hands.

"Oh, you girl, what an embarrassment you are." Even though the jujube in my hand didn't mean to be pushed out at all, she said with a smile on her face: "My surname is Qian, and you call me Qian." Auntie is good, you can see the place where the transportation team lives along this road to the end, then turn right."

Aunt Qian didn't hide her words when she got the benefits, and Tong Siyu was satisfied when she asked the way smoothly.

Saying goodbye to Aunt Qian, Tong Siyu headed to the employee unit under the sun. It is definitely not acceptable to sell on the street. I am afraid that if you do this, you will have to go to the bureau to rest if the goods are not sold. At that time, his father drove seven or eight yuan a month, not to mention that the wages must be raised now. Although he eats commodity food, he doesn't need a ticket for anything he buys now, and he definitely eats less fruit and the like.

Tong Siyu arrived at the place that Aunt Qian said, it was a row of one-story houses, and there was a big sign outside that said Transport Team.

Tong Siyu picked a door at random, stood outside and began to knock: "Is anyone there? It's too hot, can I ask for a bowl of water?" In this era, there is no mineral water, so she saw that asking for water Been several times.

"Someone, wait a minute." The speaker's voice was not young, like an old lady.

Soon the door opened, and it turned out to be an old woman with gray temples, followed by two soft little dolls: "Girl, come in for a drink of water, are you visiting relatives in such a hot day?"

"Hey, grandma, I have dates here, do you want to buy some? It's not expensive for three cents a catty." Tong Siyu asked in a low voice as he lifted the big leaves on his face to reveal the red dates inside.

"Come in and say," the old grandma glanced at Zao Zi, and calmly let Tong Siyu in.

Tong Siyu wiped off his sweat and laughed, "You have a family, look at this old lady's skillful appearance, it seems that people in the city are not living as comfortably as she thought.

After haggling for a while, the old grandma bought a ten-cent jujube, and after Tong Siyu gave one away, she enthusiastically pointed out a family who loves jujubes, and told her that if there were fresh fruits in the future, she would still buy them. home.

The fruit is really easy to sell. Tong Siyu sold the basket short within a few trips. After all, he had a huge sum of [-] cents. He patted the money-making pocket. Except for the round-trip fare, there is no cost at all, and the net profit is [-] cents. You must know that people's daily wages are only four to five cents a day.

Tong Siyu passed the state-run restaurant on his way home, and it was already three or four o'clock in the afternoon. There was no one eating in the restaurant, only two people who looked like waiters were resting on the table.

Touching the money in his pocket, Tong Siyu thought about it or forgot it, bear with it for a while, and then go to the restaurant to buy meat buns when he has a dollar, buy four of them, and take home one for each person!

In the next few days, Tong Siyu secretly bought a basket of jujubes at work as usual, not only on the transportation team side, but also on the residential building side. Buy it for a dime.

It's a pity that after running like this, it soon reached saturation. People who have already bought dates have relieved their cravings. Except for the special favorites, they rarely spend money to buy them again. Tong Siyu's reselling business is about to slow down. state.

Tong Siyu was not surprised by this, these days she was not only shopping, but also inquiring about news, most of the reselling in the town was on the black market, today she deliberately brought only a few catties of dates, and when they were sold out, she would I left the basket at the house of the aunt I knew, and went to the black market according to the news I found out.

The black market is at the westernmost part of the town, and the people living there are all part-time workers in the town. The turnover of people is not as good as other places. In terms of the development of the town, the west side is far worse than the east side. They are all on the east side, and the houses on the west side look quite dilapidated.

Tong Siyu walked all the way, and didn't see any suspicious people in the black market at all. After walking around a few times, someone came to the door by himself.

"Girl, what are you doing here?" The speaker looked dirty in a torn shirt, and on his head was a black melon hat sewn by himself.

"You are the third master Sun, right?" Tong Siyu was not afraid at all when he saw someone coming. Isn't this the third master Sun that Aunt Zou's family said. Many goods in the black market come from him.

"Yo, I know a lot." Third Master Sun lifted his hat up, his eyes were brilliant and said, "Whatever you want to buy, as long as you can tell the starting price, I can get it for you."

Tong Siyu took out [-] cents and gave it to the third master, and said in a low voice: "Third master, I don't want to buy something, I want to sell something", before he finished speaking, the third master Sun pushed the money into Tong Siyu's hand Turn around and leave.

"Run! The policeman is here." After Sanye Sun said, he scurried around like a loach and soon disappeared.

"stop!"

Tong Siyu didn't dare to turn her head back, so she ran away with her feet up. She has been buying dates for the past few days, and if she appeared in the black market today, she would not be able to explain it clearly.

Tong Siyu was running out of breath, but the police behind her were like tarsus maggots who couldn't get rid of her, and she was not familiar with the west side, so she was about to be caught up, if she was caught, it would be the end of the game .

Tong Siyu felt 1 regrets that he shouldn't be too aggressive, sweating profusely.

"Come on, hurry up!" Suddenly a short male voice sounded.

Tong Siyu was desperate and suddenly heard a familiar voice, looked up to see if it was Lu Jici, and ran after him if he didn't think about anything else.

At first glance, Lu Jici was very familiar with the area to the west, and the route he ran was full of copied paths, and he had to pass through other people's yards from time to time. Tong Siyu could keep up with his own Hold on hard.

Finally, when Tong Siyu was about to exhaust himself, Lu Jici stopped in a dark alley. There was a black dilapidated house in the alley. He opened the door and walked in.

Now Tong Siyu couldn't care about whether it was proper or not to be polite, so he just followed in, and then he saw the embarrassing Third Master Sun.

"Mr. Sun, you... you've screwed me to death!" Tong Siyu sat on a ponytail and gasped for breath, jumping out word by word.

"Sister, I'm really sorry, conditioned reflex." Third Master Sun stroked his bare head shortly.

"Drink water", Lu Jici brought a bowl of water to Tong Siyu with a cold face.

"Thank you", Tong Siyu thanked in a low voice, took the water but couldn't help thinking in his mind, how did this guy manage to run for so long without blushing.

"Little Brother Lu, do you know each other? It's not like the water has washed into the Dragon King Temple. If I had known earlier that it was all from my family, I would have run away with my sister." Sun Sanye had a heart of gossip under his shrewd appearance.

"Same village", after Lu Jici said one sentence, he refused to say it again.

Mr. Sun nodded to show he understood, but he kept complaining in his heart. If it was just the same village, you could take others far away and bring them back to their lair. He is a bit older, but he is not those old antiques. Fashionable free love.

If Tong Siyu knew what he was thinking under the serious surface, he would definitely vomit three liters of blood, but it's a pity that at this time, she is so tired that her soul is flying out of the air.

"By the way, girl, you just told me what you want to sell?" Third Master Sun finally remembered the business.
