Reborn Craftsman

Chapter 7 Motorcycle

For Liu Xing, this is the experience of life. Although the experience accumulated over the past few decades is inconspicuous, it is enough for him to walk in the world.

"Do you want something else?" Seeing that the business was completed, the tall boss asked Liu Xing with a smile.

"Hmm..." Liu Xing glanced at the booth of the tall boss: "How do you sell ribs?"

"Two!" The tall boss replied.

"What?" Liu Xing thought he heard it wrong.

These ribs will be very expensive decades later, usually twice the price of pork belly, why are they only sold for two yuan after rebirth?

And judging by the quantity on the booth, not many people bought it at all.

"I know what's going on." Liu Xing laughed at himself. Most of the rural areas in 1993 still couldn't afford meat, and they only ate a meal during the Chinese New Year.

The ribs looked good, but they had a lot of bones. Normally, few villagers would buy them.

Just buy it, probably not a lot.

Because at this time, most farmers in the countryside liked to eat fatty meat. It was not until the living conditions gradually improved after 2000 that they liked to eat ribs and lean meat.

"Do you want ribs?" Seeing that Liu Xing was silent, the tall boss couldn't help asking.

"Give me a small piece!" Since the ribs are so cheap, Liu Xing will not let them go. If it is decades later, it will cost tens of dollars a catty.

"Excellent!" Boss Gao Ge hurriedly chopped up the selected ribs for Liu Xing, and put them in a bag: "Two catties and two taels, give me four yuan."

"Okay!" Liu Xing did not pay, but looked at a pile of bobs on the booth: "How do you sell this boss?"

Since the ribs are cheap, the price of the ribs should be even cheaper.

"Hey, I can't sell this. I usually take it home and feed it to the dogs. If you like it, you can give me a dollar!" The tall boss explained with a smile.

what?

Can't sell the ribs?
Usually feed the dog?
Liu Xing thought he heard wrong.

I remember that before rebirth, it was the same price as meat, and it was still a hot commodity.

But soon he came back to his senses without showing any signs of expression, and quickly took out five yuan and handed it to the tall boss, "Put it all together! My family has several domestic dogs, and I just took it back for them to eat."

"Excellent!" Seeing that a pile of bones could be sold for money, the tall boss quickly packed them up for Liu Xing happily, and quickly took the money. After checking the authenticity, he quickly put it away.

He was afraid that it would be bad if Liu Xing's parents came and asked him to refund the money.

Liu Xing saw this scene in his eyes and was happy in his heart. After saying goodbye to the tall boss, he put the pork belly, ribs, and ribs into a big plastic bag, and put them on the back rack of the bicycle. After tying it up, he picked up his sister who was snuggling at his feet and walked out of the market.

The big belly boss who looked down on him before looked at Liu Xing who was walking away, he regretted it to death, he said to the tall boss: "Baldy, you are fucking lucky today, you made such a big deal .”

"Then thank you for your concession!" The tall boss laughed loudly: "I can't figure it out, why did you say that he has no money?"

"I know that kid, he is a child of Liu Dageng's family in Qingshi Village!" The boss with a big belly rolled his eyes: "His family is very poor, I remember living in a dilapidated earth-brick house under Lianhua Mountain. It’s actually a huge sum of money with dozens of dollars!”

"You! A dog sees people as inferior!" The tall boss shook his head disapprovingly: "Do poor people have no money to buy meat? Don't forget, you didn't learn how to sell meat from Butcher Zhang, and you were so poor that you didn't even have pants. have to wear it."

"That's true!" The pot-bellied boss sneered.

……

"Brother, why did you buy so many bones today?" After walking out of the market, Little Peanut finally asked the doubt in his heart: "And it seems that our family only raises a little yellow dog?"

"That's just an excuse. You don't understand. Pork bone soup is delicious, especially pork ribs, which are even more delicious than braised pork!" Liu Xing explained while riding his bicycle slowly.

"I don't believe it!" Little Peanut shook his head.

In her eyes, what flavor can a bone have? How can it be as delicious as braised pork.

Liu Xing didn't want to say more, because he knew he couldn't explain clearly to Peanut.

The moment the braised pork ribs are on the table, Little Peanut will know what he said is true.

On the country road, there were quite a lot of villagers riding bicycles back. Liu Xing slowed down for fear of accidents.

For him, the safety of his sister is the most important thing.

"Brother, brother! Look, motorcycle!" Little Peanut suddenly shouted happily.

"Oh..." Liu Xing followed Xiao Peanut's field of vision, and saw a red Nanfang 125 motorcycle driving past behind him quickly. Blue smoke rumbled from the position of the chimney.

In Liu Xing's impression, Nanfang 125 motorcycles belonged to domestic vehicles. In 1993, there seemed to be more than 1 motorcycles.

Those who can afford this are either local tyrants or local households with ten thousand yuan.

To be honest, Liu Xing was a little envious, because he was obsessed with motorcycles since he was a child.

But by the time he was able to make money and afford it, motorcycles had been banned nationwide, and the Southern 125 motorcycle had withdrawn from the stage of history.

"It seems that I will work hard and try to buy my own motorcycle within a year!" Liu Xing vowed secretly in his heart. Seeing that it was getting late, he immediately got on the bicycle and walked towards home.

The harvest of today's trip is very great for him, and he also knows how to make money to overcome the difficulties at home.

As long as he works hard, he believes that life will definitely get better.

"Brother! Look at the reservoir, there seems to be a car accident!" Little Peanut tugged at Liu Xing's clothes in a low voice.

"Where is it?" Liu Xing frowned.

The reservoir that Peanut mentioned is the largest Dayushan reservoir in Qingshi Village. If there is a car accident, that would be terrible.

"It's a brand new motorcycle that went into the ditch, it's not a car accident!" Liu Xing patiently explained to Peanut.

The brand of this brand new motorcycle is Wuyang Honda. It is a real imported product, and it is absolutely impossible to get it without [-] to [-] yuan.

At this time, there were many villagers watching the excitement, some gossiping, and some wanted to help, the bustling was very lively.

Liu Xing pushed the bicycle closer and took a look. He wanted to leave directly, but his eyes widened in surprise in the next second. The owner of this Wuyang Honda motorcycle turned out to be the young woman who bought his dustpan before.

It seemed that no one was injured, but the fermented soybeans on the motorcycle shelf were scattered all over the floor.

"Hello! Do you need help?" Liu Xing thought for a while, then shouted at the young woman at the top of his voice.

"You know how to ride a motorcycle?" The young woman asked after hearing Liu Xing's shout.

Liu Xing really wanted to answer yes, but he dared not say it out loud.

After all, his family doesn't have a motorcycle. If he said yes, the villagers who watched the excitement and knew him well would die of laughter.

At the moment, he had to entrust his sister to an acquaintance, and then jumped into the ditch.
