Era: Start as a buyer

The next day, which should be the second day of my era, the sun was already shining into the house through the window.

Actually it's still early, the sun comes out early now, but even though I don't have to go to the factory to work today. But we have to catch a shuttle bus. There is only one bus to the city in the morning and passes through Longjin Town. It sets off at around eight o'clock.

Luo Cheng first went out and closed the door, ran to the place where the buns were sold, and asked the bun seller for some oil paper. If he didn't give it for free, he could buy it with money. In the end, I spent a dime and bought a stack of oil paper. Those who sell steamed buns and pancakes specialize in wrapping things in this paper.

After buying the paper bag, I immediately went home and wrapped the meat, roast duck and peanuts in paper. As for the wine, I put it in two big gourds, which could not fit in one gourd. Toilet water is put into small gourds, and clothes are put into cloth bags.

In the end, in addition to the two gourds and cloth bags hanging on the body, other food wrapped in oil paper, as well as cantaloupe, egg, steamed buns and small gourds were packed in wooden barrels. The barrel has a handle and a lid. Close the lid, carry the barrel and you're ready to go.

This person is carrying a bucket and has something hanging on his body. Some neighbors who are already acquainted will naturally ask about it when they see it. Luo Cheng also directly said that he would go back to the town and pick up his wife to live here after returning in a few days. No one bothered to ask Luo Cheng what was in the barrel.

When I rushed to the station with my things, I bought a ticket and sat in the car waiting for more than half an hour before departure. The ticket price was more than 20 cents, and the ticket was given in a hand-torn small ticket, one cent, two cents, five cents, one cent, two cents. No matter how high the amount is, the ticket will be gone. At least for the ticket to the county below, 20 cents is enough.

The ticket must be kept well and can be returned to the unit for reimbursement.

After more than an hour's drive, Luo Cheng got off the bus at the intersection of the main road near Longjin Town. The shuttle bus driver had a watch and it was just past ten o'clock when he got here. As expected of a driver who is one of the Eight Great Members, he has a watch strap. Watches are actually not expensive for drivers, but you have to be able to get a watch ticket.

Watches, bicycles, sewing machines, and radios were all called three revolutions and one ring in this era. Everything is difficult for ordinary people to have. People in the capital's 49 cities are considered to have very good conditions for having these things. Changshi can only be regarded as a third-tier city, so these things are even harder to obtain.

It still takes ten minutes to walk from the intersection to where I live at the west end of the town. On the way back, Luo Cheng found that there were very few people on the roads in the town, just a few.

When I got home, the door was closed and ajar. In fact, Luo Cheng had no locks on the house in the town. This is not just him, many poor families cannot afford to buy locks. What's more, most people don't have anything valuable at home, and there are many families who don't say anything.

Luo Cheng still has rice and noodles at home, but if someone dares to steal it and reports it to the police, they will actually go to each house to investigate. If you get caught, stealing is no joke these days.

Some people say that Luo Cheng also stole things from other people's vegetable fields. But these days, there are subjective and objective things. Subjective stealing means going to someone's house and stealing. Luo Cheng's kind is not called stealing, because he doesn't avoid people, and he doesn't target anyone subjectively. Taking other people's food from the fields, and just a little bit, is called taking, not stealing.

Of course, if you take other people’s things for free, you just need to educate and criticize them. Taking a radish from someone's field is completely different from stealing a pound of rice from someone's house.

The house was clean and there was water in the water tank. Luo Cheng put the things away and got some water with a ladle. Then I went next door and found that there was no one in the neighbor Lao Zhang's family. Damn it, where are the people in this town?

After lying on the bed for a while, his daughter-in-law Zhao Qian was with the brigade, and she didn't know where the brigade in the commune worked. But when I think about farm work, I get up early and finish work early at noon. It was already ten o'clock when I got off the bus, and I would have to eat soon.

If you want to find your wife, you don't have to go to the fields to find her. You can just go to the collective canteen in the town and wait. So Luo Cheng got up and went out to the canteen again. When he arrived at the canteen, he realized where the people in the town had gone.

Many old people and children are walking around and playing around the canteen, waiting for the canteen to open. And Luo Cheng's appearance has also become the focus. It has long been heard that Luo Cheng, a second-rate boy in the town, is going to work in the city. Now Luo Cheng appears in the cafeteria wearing blue work clothes.

Unexpectedly, the second-rate guy who was once looked down upon by many people turned out to be a promising person in the town. In the past, many people in the town secretly said that Luo Cheng was just a bully in the town. In other words, they were all people in the town. Many people didn't care about him. He still acted like this after leaving the town. He might have been beaten to death.

He Luo Cheng's guess was correct. Not long after, the people who lived in the town and worked came to the canteen after work. Most of them didn't even go home and came directly here. I am not active in eating, have problems with my thinking, and do not think it is important to eat to fill my stomach.

Zhao Qian soon appeared in front of Luo Cheng, and Luo Cheng, who was wearing blue overalls, was quite conspicuous. When Zhao Qian saw Luo Cheng, she trotted all the way to his side. Her man was back.

In the days since Luo Cheng left, people kept joking with her that Luo Cheng used to be a second-rate man and now he went to work in the city. Maybe he won't come back and find a wife in the city to have a baby.

Zhao Qian was really afraid that something like this would happen. Although her father had said before that if Luo Cheng would do something like this, her father would take her to the city to find Luo Cheng and make trouble in his workplace. Anyway, I know that the place where Luo Cheng works is the Changshi Machinery Factory. I have never been there, but I will definitely find out about it when I get to Changshi.

There are many people near the cafeteria. In this era, even if a man and a woman are husband and wife, they will be laughed at if they hold hands.

Luo Cheng, come back and pull it. These are factory work clothes. They look really good.

Well, I have to do some errands in town when I come back this time. After staying for a few days, you will go to live with me in the city. You are still working as a temporary clerk. Don't do this job. You will eat later. Go and tell your father about this. Hey~, is it your father who is coming over?

We want to organize hunters to go hunting in the mountains. Now individual organizations alone are not enough. We need to wait for the nod from the leaders of the commune. This requires the commune leaders to nod and his cheap father-in-law, Accountant Zhao, to come forward. I originally thought about meeting my father-in-law after dinner. But just after chatting with my wife, I saw my father-in-law.

Dad~.

Zhao Qian looked in the direction Luo Cheng was pointing, and it was indeed her father coming to the cafeteria, so she immediately waved and shouted.

In fact, even without shouting, Accountant Zhao also saw Luo Cheng and his daughter, but he saw them at about the same time. Luo Cheng wore blue work clothes, which was very different from his previous image, so he didn't dare to confirm it immediately.
