hunting in 1986

Chapter 72

The size of the Sanmazi is between that of a Sanbangzi and a tractor, and there is no problem in transporting goods.

In a small courtyard near Yanjing Railway Station.

The man in charge of purchasing selected more than a dozen bags of pine nuts, opened them, took out them, and inspected the goods.

"Well, no problem, let's get on the scale."

"Uncle Li, of course my friend's things are not bad." Qian Xiaojun was a little unhappy, and the other party wanted to inspect the goods as if he suspected that they were adulterated, and he felt a little embarrassed.

"Oh, it's all like this, don't think too much." Uncle Li patted Qian Xiaojun's arm, and then watched the other men move the three platform scales down.

Three bags of pine nuts were piled up and weighed once, and nine bags were weighed at a time, which was quite fast.

Niu Yuanyuan was very active in helping to keep the accounts. Sometimes, if she didn't see clearly, she would ask the workers to wait a while before lifting them away.

Wang Yuan is selling things, saying that the higher the price, the more disadvantaged he will be.

Uncle Li was helpless, after chatting, he already knew that the first-hand owner of these pine nuts was Wang Yuan, so he said with a smile: "Little comrade, your wife really knows how to live."

brush~
Niu Yuanyuan, who was counting the weight with her waist down, blushed instantly.

Wang Yuan quickly explained: "Haha, you misunderstood, we are friends, and I promised to sell pine nuts to buy her delicious food, so she will take care of it."

Niu Yuanyuan turned her head and glared at Wang Yuan, then continued to help keep the accounts, muttering while doing so:
"One weighs less than half a catty. It doesn't look like much, but hundreds of bags of pine nuts add up to a lot of money."

At noon, Zheng Lian went to a nearby restaurant to buy some food, such as pork buns, stewed noodles with tomatoes, and fried pork with cabbage.

Holding the bowl, Qian Xiaojun sat on a bag of pine nuts and ate noodles, chewing the noodles and teasing:
"Brother Lian, just eat this stuff while you're busy with your work? No, you have to order hard food and good wine!"

"It's tight at noon, so let's be wronged first. I'll be the host tonight! Let's go to Xidan to eat stewed lamb!"

Zheng Lian said proudly.He roughly estimated that he should be able to make a lot of money this time.

But this time I didn't pay much, so I just sent a telegram to get in touch, and then came back to refill the hands.

After eating, we continued to weigh, and finally finished weighing at almost three o'clock in the afternoon. After checking the account, there was no problem, and then Uncle Li took out a calculator.

Wang Yuan was stunned for a moment.

Uncle Li thought that Wang Yuan didn't know calculators, so he shook the calculator and explained: "It's very convenient to calculate with this thing, and you can get numbers quickly by adding, subtracting and subtracting."

"Well, let's do it."

Of course, Wang Yuan knew about calculators. In later generations, many schools would allow students to buy them, but they were not allowed to use them during exams, so teachers do not recommend using them in normal times.

In the end it's a waste of money.

The result was quickly calculated - 32178 catties, which is the weight after removing the bag.

Both Wang Yuan and Zheng Lian had no objection to the result, so the other party directly took money out of the purse:
"The price we negotiated before was 6 cents per catty, a total of 5 yuan."

"Yes, that's right."

郑廉心虚的看了王远一眼，涨了5分钱后他给王远的价格是5毛7分钱，和6毛5分钱还是有相当大的差距的。

After seeing Wang Yuan's normal expression, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then couldn't help feeling that Xiao Yuan is really a good person—many people would rather not make money themselves than let others make money, and see others make money from themselves. will be very angry.

Obviously Wang Yuan is not such a person.

The profit per catty was only 8 cents. Wang Yuan felt that Zheng Lian's profit was not as high as he had imagined. He thought the latter would earn at least 1 cents per catty.

After paying the money, the workers started to transport the pine nuts in a three-horse car. The quantity of pine nuts was so large that they needed to be transported many times.

Wang Yuan pulled Zheng Lian into the house, and soon the two of them also divided the money. Originally, Wang Yuan should have received 18341.46 yuan, but Zheng Lian directly donated the change to him, giving him 18350 yuan.

Instantly become a millionaire!
The shriveled wallet suddenly swelled up, Wang Yuan's heart sank, and his self-confidence instantly rose!

After leaving the house, Niu Yuanyuan came up with small steps: "How much money did you make? Tell me, how much did you make, tell me, I just helped you settle accounts."

"Not much, the cost is high."

"Liar!"

Asking everyone to wait for a while, Wang Yuan went directly to a yard on the east side of the alley to find the landlord, gave him a dozen catties of pine nuts, and told him not to renew the rent.

The landlord felt a little pity, but he nodded to express his understanding. He looked at the large bag of pine nuts in his hand and said:
"What is this? Little melon seeds?"

"It's not melon seeds, it's pine nuts, which grow on pine trees."

"This thing grows on the pine tree?" The owner of the house gave Wang Yuan a glance: "You young man is fooling the old man. Aren't there pine trees on the top of the grave? Why haven't I seen this thing growing on any pine tree?" Son."

Wang Yuan felt that the old man was quite funny, and said with a smile:
"There are also several types of pine trees. Chinese pine, white-bark pine, and sylvestris pine can't do it. Korean pine can grow big pine nuts. These are the pine nuts of red pine. Come on, sir, I'm leaving. It's cold outside. Go back to the house too."

The landlord was very happy to get so many pine nuts for nothing, so he sent him directly to the gate.

……

The pine nuts had been sold out, so everyone left the alley and took a stroll in the street. After seeing the old newsstand by the roadside, Wang Yuan went in and bought some magazines, newspapers, and pretending that they didn't need money.

"Xiao Yuan, why are you buying so much?"

"It's too boring in the countryside. When you have nothing to do, turn over and use it as a way to pass the time."

I bought some more books while passing by the bookstore, and sent them back to the hotel, and everyone took the tram to Xidan directly.

buzzing~
The white tram with red stripes is running on the street, enjoying the scenery along the way, and occasionally you can see a few white people walking on the street, it seems that they are tourists coming to China.

By the time they got off the bus near Xidan, it was already past 5 o'clock, and the lights of the shops on the roadside were turned on one by one.

"Come on, turn right ahead and you'll find the mutton restaurant." Qian Xiaojun seemed to come here often, and led a few people inside.

Niu Yuanyuan looked at the shops and stalls, feeling very novel: "After dinner, let's take a stroll."

After entering the restaurant, a gust of hot air rushed over. Qian Xiaojun yelled, "The amount is for 5 people, serve it quickly", and soon the delicious stewed lamb was served.

It was steaming hot, with a wafting aroma. In addition, there were some side dishes and steamed buns. Zheng Lian went inside and brought out a bottle of Maotai wine and several large bowls.

"How much is Moutai?"

"More than 100... Cough cough, drink it and it's over, the money is a bastard, let's make money after it's gone!"

Five people sat at the pale yellow dining table, and quickly started eating while drinking. The pine nuts sold for a lot of money. It's also a good mood to come to play.

So there was a great atmosphere around the table, a really rare and wonderful time in this cold winter.

Since the unplanned release of the price of Moutai, the price of Moutai has also started to skyrocket, more than 100 yuan a bottle, what a terrible price.

Wang Yuan suspects that those who can afford this drink are speculators. Otherwise, workers or farmers, how many wages can afford this drink?

The mutton tasted very good, and it was the first time for Wang Yuan to eat mutton after such a long time.

Niu Yuanyuan didn't drink, just sat on the side and ate food quietly, then turned her beautiful eyes on Wang Yuan, Qian Xiaojun, Zheng Lian, Li Hang and others, listening to their chat.

Qian Xiaojun drank a little too much, and his voice became louder:
"There are flying dragons in the Northeast. I heard it's delicious. Brother Lian, have you tried it yet?"

"Yes, I went up the mountain with them on the farm and shot the flying dragon once, and the flying dragon was completely shattered in one shot."

"Is it delicious?"

"It's delicious, it's really delicious, but it's too small for a few people to eat it in one bite."

"It's not interesting, let's get some and come back and eat with the brothers." Qian Xiaojun touched the bowls with Wang Yuan, and then drank it down. He asked Wang Yuan, Li Hang and Niu Yuanyuan, but all three I ate dragons.

"I'm the only one who has never eaten at this table!?"

"Sit down, sit down, what are you doing standing up? Don't be crazy about drinking, you ruined a good bottle of Moutai."

After eating, Qian Xiaojun went to Maozi, and the cold wind blew the wine and woke up most of them.

Everyone walked along the street from south to north. There were a lot of shops on both sides of the street, and there were also some stalls in the surrounding small alleys, which was quite prosperous.

The northwest corner of the intersection was very lively. Couples of young men and women came in and out with smiles on their faces. Wang Yuan took a look and found that it was a wedding gift shop.

Through the glass window, you can see the bright red quilt, quilt cover, sheets, as well as thermos, enamel cups, small basins and so on.

Zheng Lian said: "Xiaoyuan, you seem to be getting married? Why don't you go in and have a look?"

"Then go in and have a look."

Wang Yuan and the others walked in, only Niu Yuanyuan was stunned as if struck by lightning. She didn't know what was wrong with her, but she felt a little sour and aggrieved.

Counting the time on the train, we have only been together for a little over a day. Is it like this?If the other party wants to get married, get married, isn't that normal?

"Come in Yuanyuan, why don't you just stand around and gawk?"

Li Hang turned around and called her, and she followed in in a daze.
