Catch the Mountain 1985

Chapter 219 Three Rings and One Boom
"Dad, Chunming, I'm back." Zhang Peng walked in pushing his bicycle. Dahuang and the others also waggled their tails when they saw Zhang Peng. Dahuang wanted to pounce on him, but was rejected by Zhang Peng's ruthless feet.

"You're back. Xiaomei's family is very nice." Zhang Tiejun stood in the yard and asked Zhang Peng.

"Everything is fine, dad, where is my mom?" Zhang Peng asked.

"I'm in the backyard with your aunt. I'm looking at the piglets we raise. I want to kill them together tomorrow, and then invite everyone to come over and eat the pig meat," Zhang Tiejun said with a smile.

"Oh, that's great. We can also eat pig-killing vegetables this year," Zhang Peng said with a smile.

"Yes, second brother, should we leave now, or should you take a break later?" Zhao Chunming said to Zhang Peng.

"Let's go now. If we finish this early, we can come back early," Zhang Peng said.

"Okay, second brother, please wait for me for a while. I'll go push the car." Zhao Chunming nodded when he heard Zhang Peng's words, and then said.

Zhao Chunming then took his puppies back to the yard and tied them up. After entering the house for a while, he dressed up and pushed his bicycle out. After Zhang Peng greeted Zhang Tiejun, he was already waiting for him at the entrance of the yard. .

"Let's go, second brother." Zhao Chunming got on the car and greeted Zhang Peng.

After this period of training, Zhao Chunming is now able to ride a bicycle proficiently. After all, it is not suitable for riding a bicycle at home. After several bumps, he has successfully learned it.

Because we were driving forward into the wind, we kept our heads down and didn't speak during the whole journey. When we spoke, we choked on the wind. It was easy to get cold and have a stomachache. When we arrived in the city, it was almost two o'clock in the afternoon, but in the market The place is still bustling with people, because it’s the Chinese New Year, and the gatherings will definitely continue in the past few days, and both adults and children are beaming with joy.

Zhang Peng and the two pushed the car with difficulty as they walked inside. They did not dare to leave the car outside. Even if it was locked, it could easily be stolen. Who knows in this crowded place? Who does what.

Ringing the car bell, the two of them walked hard to the stall selling firecrackers. There were not many people in front of the stall at this time. They looked at the firecrackers on the stall with curiosity, wondering if there were any new tricks.

"Little brother, let's see what you want to buy?" The uncle selling firecrackers saw the two people pushing the cart and knew that they were capable, so he quickly stepped forward to greet them.

"Uncle, what good firecrackers are there? We don't need small whips first, we want to set off huge ones during the New Year," Zhao Chunming said.

"Oh, there are so many of these. The best-selling one is the hardcover earth red one with 1000 rings. Why don't you buy one?" the uncle recommended with a smile.

"Is there anything else? The sound is going to be loud." Zhao Chunming looked at it and felt unsatisfied, then asked.

"Ah? Isn't this okay?" The uncle was stunned when he heard Zhao Chunming's words, and then said.

"We want something loud. It needs to be loud enough during the Chinese New Year, right?" Zhao Chunming said with a smile.

"Haha, that's true. If you go to someone else's place, I don't know, but you're here and I'm here. I have something new, wait until I bring it out to you." The uncle looked confused when he saw Zhao Chunming. With a satisfied expression, he said quickly.

Then the uncle pulled out a large plate of firecrackers from under the stall, and put them together regularly. It was obvious that the firecrackers would be thicker than Dadihong, and then there was a marlezi at another section. There was no packaging, just with hemp rope. It is tied up and supported by a round paper shell of the same size underneath.

Seeing the thing that the uncle took out, Zhang Peng and Zhao Chunming's eyes lit up. Zhang Peng was thinking in his heart, is there such a thing now?
"Uncle, what is this?" Zhao Chunming and Zhang Peng leaned the car against the stall to see if it would affect people's walking, and then approached and said.

"Hey, this just came out. I finally got it through shopping. We call it three rings and one bang." This is a good thing. I have tried it, and the sound is amazing. . . . "The uncle said with a smile.

"Great, I want this. It should be loud when you look at it. Are these big ones Marezi?" Zhao Chunming said excitedly.

"Well, stay away from this thing when you put it on. After it is lit, there will be a small firecracker sound at first, and after a while it will make a loud noise. Then you will know why it is called "three rings and one bang", hahaha. ..." The uncle laughed and said to Zhao Chunming and Zhang Peng.

"Okay, that's it. How much does it cost?" Zhao Chunming asked. "I don't sell this at a high price. I won't bargain for four yuan for a plate." The uncle also said when he heard that he wanted it.

"It's so expensive. How much does this Dadi Hong cost?" When Zhao Chunming heard the price, he also felt a little expensive.

"Little brother, you can't be so nagging. Think about this 1000-ring Dadihong. I still have to sell it for two yuan and a half. This thing is much louder than Dadihong, and it has Mare seeds on it. You Are you saying so?" The uncle also explained quickly.

"That's a bit expensive. We both want it, why can't it be cheaper?" Zhao Chunming followed the uncle to discuss the price.

"Well, this is a new thing. I can't sell it cheaply. I'll make the other ones cheaper for you. Isn't it just right?" The uncle thought for a while and said.

"Okay, Chunming, let's do that," Zhang Peng said quickly when he saw that Zhao Chunming wanted to negotiate the price.

What Zhang Peng thought was that now they were not short of money and they were able to support their families, so that was almost enough.

"Uncle, please bring us eight plates," Zhang Peng said to the uncle.

When the uncle heard that Zhang Peng wanted eight sets at once, he was also stunned by this move. Then he agreed with a smile, then squatted down and pulled the firecrackers out from under the stall.

"Is this enough for each of our families?" Zhang Peng turned to Zhao Chunming and asked.

"Ah? Why did you buy so much? Where are the others?" Zhao Chunming was also stunned for a moment, and then asked.

"It's not much. Let's put two sets together on the [-]th night, and then put one set on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month. At other times, we can just buy some earth red." Zhang Peng explained.

"Oh, that's okay, that's enough," Zhao Chunming thought for a while and said.

"Little brother, what else do you want to tell uncle? I have everything. Do you have children at home? Why don't you buy some cannonballs for your children?" When the uncle saw this move, he knew that the family was in good condition, and he promoted it enthusiastically.

"What is cannon throwing?" Zhao Chunming asked curiously when he heard this new term.

"This is new. You can't find it anywhere else. It's just a box of small firecrackers, ten in a box. These small firecrackers don't need to be lit. They can go off when thrown on the ground. They are not too powerful. They are just for the children at home. "Play," the uncle explained with a smile.

"How much does a box cost?" Zhao Chunming asked with interest.

"How about fifty cents? How many boxes would you like?" the uncle asked.

"Bring me two boxes, I'll try it first to see if it's fun," Zhao Chunming said to the uncle.

"Second brother, are you coming?" Zhao Chunming turned to Zhang Peng again.

"How can these two boxes at home be enough? Give me ten boxes. How much does it cost for two kicks and marlezi?" Zhang Peng asked

"One and a half cents for two kicks and one cent for marlezi. How much do you want?" The uncle said happily after hearing Zhang Peng's words.

"One hundred kickers and fifty marlezi," Zhang Peng thought for a while and said.

"Second brother, why do you want so much?" Zhao Chunming quickly stopped Zhang Peng, saying there was so much and it was unnecessary.
