I am a cripple in the Siheyuan. Who am I afraid of?

Chapter 56 You must drink slowly

After Song Wu's east wing was repaired, he ran to the new trust store and pulled back his mahogany cabinet. The old cabinet was simply used as a storage cabinet in the new small room.

Then I brought the gramophone back and placed it in the living room. The radio was also placed in the car repair shop. Now it rings every time, and before I knew it, I needed a sewing machine.

But he really didn't need that thing, so he wasn't in a hurry to buy it.

Yu Jie also brought back the small pottery bottles and 20 kilograms of liquor that Yu Jie had agreed to, and also got a wine jar from her that could hold more than ten kilograms, and moved them all into the small yard of the car repair shop. In the cellar.

This is where he will drink wine from now on.

Song Wu first washed and dried the small pottery wine bottles that he needed, and then filled ten bottles each of two and a half jin, and two or three bottles of one jin, and put them all in the space for later use.

Then he began to seize the time to study the pamphlet of Balingjiu and began to learn various knowledge related to medicinal materials.

He thought in his mind that he could start visiting major pharmacies and slowly prepare all the needed medicinal materials.

He was careful this time and was prepared to work harder. He visited all the pharmacies in the city and didn't ask for more from each one. At most, he chose one or two kinds of medicinal materials.

While waiting for the medicine to be prepared like this, no one would be able to figure out what medicine he had prepared.

He is not in a hurry when it comes to making wine. He can take his time and treat it as a hobby, learning, researching, and experimenting.

The most important thing now is that we can feel that the supply of supplies is becoming increasingly tight.

This situation reminded him of the more than 20 fish in the space, and if necessary, he could always find time to catch fish in the river ditch.

Therefore, he calculated that he could use fish and meat to go to the ghost market to exchange for some urgently needed supplies.

If you think about it, act on it.

Song Wu planned to use the more than 20 fish existing in the space to try it first.

After a trip, he didn't expect that some of his fish were really popular.

Although at first, some people questioned that his fish was not fresh and all of it was dead fish.

But when Song Wu pointed at the fish's eyes and said, "Look at the fish's eyes and they don't even turn their heads. It's obvious that they are all freshly caught fish."

In addition, there are only 20 fish, which are really popular, so although some people have doubts in their hearts, they don't care about it in the end.

Song Wu's fish can be exchanged in any way. You can use money or materials to directly exchange them. Of course, it is better to use various tickets.

He had more than 20 fish in total, and he finally traded out 20 fish, which took just over an hour.

The current situation on the market is that starting from May, the supply of pork in BJ City has become even tighter.

It turns out that each person can be issued three meat tickets every month. Although they are issued three taels of tickets, they can often only buy one tael of pork, but they still have tickets and meat.

But now there are only two per month, and often because of tight supply, you can’t buy pork even if you have a ticket.

This also created a situation where Song Wu had fish to trade, and the market rose accordingly.

His fish are basically exchanged for about 3 cents per catty.Calculated, each fish costs about 1 yuan for a large one, and 5 or 6 yuan for a smaller one.

If he only exchanged 20 fish for money, he would probably be able to get more than 30 yuan on average.

Of course he won't exchange everything for money. Some of the scarcer supplies are what he likes best.For example, someone gave him tea leaves in exchange for two fish.

Tea is really a rare thing nowadays.

Tea has now been classified as a second-class commodity. It is said that because of the need to grow food, many tea fields across the country have been converted into farmland, making tea increasingly rare in the market.Although drinking high-quality tea is not a problem, tea in an iron box like this is really valuable.

Song Wu walked around the ghost market. Whenever he saw someone selling eggs, grains or vegetables, he would try his best to buy them.If money can be used, he will try to use it.

Especially eggs.

Some time ago, eggs could still guarantee a pound of supply to one household per month, but I don’t know since when, eggs have gradually disappeared from the market. Now, let alone one pound of eggs to each household every month, they can supply two. One pound per month is already highly incense.

It had been a while since he'd been to the ghost market. This time he walked around in a circle and truly felt the increasingly urgent situation.

So, he decided to catch more fish every now and then, and try to make two more trips to the ghost market while ensuring safety. He visited the ghost markets in the east, west, south, and north cities, and returned with as many things as possible. , stored in his space for emergencies.

Nowadays, even BJ City's material transportation is already very tight. If you don't put more thought into it, it is estimated that various things will become more and more difficult to obtain in the future.

For many days, Song Wu was busy with this matter.

He becomes active at night, either going to the ghost market or going to the river to fish.During the day, I sometimes wander around the major pharmacies in the city.

Inadvertently, his shop began to close frequently, and the whole person seemed busy, making people feel that no one was often seen.

Director Wang really did what he said when he recommended the quota for Song Wu. The information was submitted and now it has been approved. He is just waiting for him to take a preliminary examination in early June.The arranged preliminary examination does not affect his attendance at night school. It only allows the teachers in the school to refer to Song Wu's current actual level so that he can arrange appropriate courses.

Song Wu had a plan in mind. He wanted to learn electronic and electrical related technologies.

On a smaller scale, if you have time, you can play with electronic components. It will definitely be of great use in repairing household appliances such as radios and televisions in the future.

Going even further, until he traveled back in time, electronic and electrical technology was the leading technology. Although he didn't understand it, he had seen it and used it. At least his thinking and vision were much broader than those of this era. If If you learn the technology and study it slowly, you might be able to launch a satellite.

In short, this is a technical field worthy of his investment and in line with his pursuit of a stable life.

This time, the Hongqi Night School recommended to him by Director Wang was also an opportunity.

When the time comes, he will inquire carefully to see if there are any relevant courses. Even if there are not, he should try his best to learn some basic knowledge that can be used nearby.Then you can find a few books and study by yourself first.

After you have a certain foundation, you can go shopping for a set of tools for repairing electrical appliances. By then, you should be able to get started easily by combining book knowledge with practice.

Calculating the time, the next nearly ten years would be enough for him to accumulate knowledge to a certain level and hone his skills to a certain height.

Then when he let go, it would be the time for Song Wu to show off his skills.

Therefore, although the current period and the next period of time are difficult, it is also a rare opportunity for him to have the energy to slowly accumulate.

After all, it doesn’t matter how smart or diligent you are, as long as you can keep making progress when others stop or even move back, that will be your greatest success.

Song Wu couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this is really a prosperous era!

He can also learn from Zhu Yuanzhang's strategy back then.The saying "Build walls high, accumulate grain widely, and become king slowly", Song Wu felt that in this era, it was completely applicable to him to always be wary of himself.

In other words, "Store more supplies and lay a solid foundation. Be patient and endure loneliness. Always be vigilant and wait for the opportunity."

……

Song Wu now had the Eight Spirit Wine packaged, and after finding a moment, he first sent half a catty to Director Niu.

When he first sent it to Director Niu, he didn't care. He also disliked Song Wu for interrupting the rhythm of his work.He took the wine casually, waved his hand and urged Song Wu to leave quickly.

However, he didn't expect that he would come to the door again the next day.

This time, Director Niu's whole attitude changed drastically. Not only did he lose the control of his elders, he even started to act like brothers.

"Song Wu, I didn't expect that the wine you gave me was so strong. After drinking it, I was very energetic and efficient at work. When I analyzed the case, I felt that my mind was spinning very fast. In order for me to be able to A better job, see if you can get more, I wouldn’t be too much if I get one weighing 10 pounds and 8 pounds.”

Song Wu just smiled and didn't answer.

What kind of work is particularly exciting? You're a liar, right?After drinking, are you still thinking about work? "

He laughed secretly in his heart.

"Director Niu, no, Uncle Niu. Think about it, how much of such good wine can I have? My dad left some for me, won't I use it to honor you? Now, I am learning to brew it, and when I finish brewing it, I will let you try it first."

The bull's eyes widened. "Don't think I don't understand. It takes time to brew medicinal wine. You just brewed it. How effective can it be? Take out some more wine in your hand."

In the end, after all the hard talk, Director Niu was able to grind away another half of the catty.

"Uncle Niu, you must drink slowly. One cup at a time is enough." Song Wu couldn't help but remind him, "If you finish your drink, I really don't have any more. When my aunt comes to trouble you, I will also no way."

Director Niu had already walked to the door. Hearing Song Wu's last words, his feet almost softened and he fell to the ground.

Song Wu also inquired and found the home of Director Zheng of the original steel rolling mill.

This time he came to bring a fish and half a catty of wine.

Director Zheng did not go home to rest, but was transferred to the steel mill. Although he was still in charge of logistics work, his power was much greater than that in the steel rolling mill.

Song Wu came here carrying fish, so there was nothing embarrassing about being in time for dinner.

Director Zheng's husband and wife are at home, and their children have all gotten married and moved out.

He didn't have any reaction to the fish Song Wu was holding, but he suddenly became interested when he looked at the delicate little wine bottle in his hand.

"What kind of wine is this? Have you never seen packaging like this?" He was experienced in wine. He had drunk both good and loose wines, but he had never seen anything like this in Song Wu's hand.

Song Wu took advantage of Director Zheng's wife to go to the kitchen to cook and said to him: "Uncle Zheng, this is good stuff. You will know after you try it."

Director Zheng unscrewed the bottle cap and smelled it, "Oh, it's medicinal wine!"

The two looked at each other and smiled knowingly. "That's right, you're pretty good at it. How's your car repair shop doing?"
