Chapter 176 Taking his wife into the city again
When he walked into the store, Wang Zhou was lighting a fire in the yard. When he saw Lin Heng, he quickly greeted: "Brother Lin."
"There is nothing going on in the store. Recently?" Lin Heng asked with a smile.
Wang Zhou shook his head: "Everything is as usual, except that there have been a lot fewer people selling goods recently, which is far different from the previous month."
As he said that, he went over and brought the ledger. Check with Lin Heng.
Lin Heng took a look, and thanks to his good memory after rebirth, he quickly made a rough calculation.
Fortunately, the fluctuations this month will not be huge, and the profit will not be much different from last month.
But starting next month, it is expected to plummet.
"My fireplace? Didn't you bring it with you?" Lin Heng asked.
“No movement.” Wang Zhou shook his head.
Lin Heng nodded: "It will probably take a few days before it can be delivered."
He asked the wholesaler Li Guoqiang to buy him a fireplace. It is estimated that this person is not willing to give him one alone. trip.
After chatting for a while, Lin Heng saw Uncle Gao coming out of the room wearing a coat and walked over quickly.
Uncle Gao looked at him and said with a smile: "Xiao Lin, the leopard meat you sent last time is really useful. After eating it, I feel a little hot when sleeping these days, and my limbs also have strength."< br>
Lin Heng said with a smile: "As long as it works, when it snows again, I will take you to the mountains to hunt."
Uncle Gao nodded: "Okay, I happen to have a little itchy hands. You can get a carriage to pick me up then."
After playing here for a long time, Lin Heng went to the town to have a look. Lin Heng would return at noon. Got home.
“Come back so soon?” Xiulan asked curiously.
Lin Heng nodded: "I went down mainly to see if the fireplace came, but the fireplace still didn't come.
Tomorrow, you and Xiaoxia can go down to the city with me, and do some errands at the same time. Let’s buy some clothes.”
He has three things to do when he goes down tomorrow: sell musk; arrange for Li Guoqiang to come up in advance to pull a batch of wire switches and light bulbs; and buy a set of winter clothes for Xiulan Xiaoxia and himself.
Actually, he recently wanted to register an agricultural company, but when he thought about the many things to do, he had to wait for a while.
And registering a company is more troublesome than going through the procedures for a self-employed household.
"Okay." Xiulan nodded in agreement.
In the afternoon, Lin Heng went to see the forest musk deer. The male forest musk deer didn’t eat, so he drank two mouthfuls of water.
Lin Heng looked at it and thought it was caused by stress, and he should be fine in two days.
The female forest musk deer stopped roaring after mating. I gave it a bowl of corn mush and it ate very deliciously.
When his father came back from Hongfeng Mountain, Lin Heng told them about the incident and asked them if they had anything they could help buy.
“No, just don’t buy randomly.” Father Lin shook his head.
Mother Lin also advised: "Your father and I both have clothes, so save the money. There will be a lot of money to spend in the future."
"Okay." Lin Heng spread his hands.
Li Shiwei said: "Lin Heng, please bring me two hairpins and hairpins."
His elder brother Lin Yue also handed him twenty yuan and asked him to give it to him from the city. Buy three pairs of cotton shoes for his three sons.
"No problem." Lin Heng nodded.
The carriage was packed up in advance, and early the next morning, Lin Heng took his wife and daughter down in the carriage.
When they arrived in the town, they called Wang Zhou together.
Wang Zhou smiled and took the whip in his hand and said: "Brother Lin, you sit back and take care of the baby, and I will drive you."
"Okay." Lin Heng nodded, Didn't refuse either.
Sitting in the back of the carriage, holding Xiaoxia in her arms.
He arrived in the city in two hours. He first went to the buying station to sell musk.
The current price of musk is 30 yuan per gram. Here he sells 34 grams for 1,020 yuan.
He did not ask Jin Fuqiang to sell musk. When Lin musk grows in scale, he will directly sign an order with a pharmaceutical company, and the price will be higher.
“Let’s go buy clothes.” After coming out, Lin Heng looked at Xiulan and Xiaoxia and said.
"Okay!" Xiulan nodded.
When Xiaoxia came to the city for the first time, she hugged Xiulan a little timidly and looked at the passers-by with her big eyes.
The cities in the 1980s were also very shabby, but they were still novel to rural people.
I drove the carriage to deposit the money first, and then went to the mall, letting Wang Zhou watch the carriage. Lin Heng took Xiulan and her daughter into the mall.
“Wander slowly, don’t be in a hurry.”
Lin Heng took Xiulan and Xiaoxia to stroll slowly.
“This sweater is good. Why don’t you buy it for only six yuan?” Lin Heng said, looking at a high-necked white women’s sweater.
"Okay." Xiulan nodded. She thought this sweater was pretty good.
I agreed to buy clothes with Lin Heng without any pretense.
Even in the largest shopping mall in the city, the variety of clothes is still a bit difficult for Lin Heng to see.
Xiulan felt that he was not satisfied with even the very nice clothes. The colors and styles of clothes in this era were too monotonous.
Walking to a children's clothing store, Lin Heng's eyes suddenly lit up. He pointed at a set of cotton-padded jackets and said, "This is good, so I bought it for Xiaoxia."
He was pointing to a Northeastern large-flowered jacket with a large number of peonies printed on it.
“Let her try it on!” Xiulan said with a smile, this dress is indeed festive enough.
This red floral cotton-padded jacket is not the modern kind of vertical buttoning, but the ancient kind of slanting buttons, which are slanted from the chin to the right chest and down from the right waist.
And the buttons are also the same cloth buttons as before, which has a very retro feel.
After putting it on Xiaoxia, she felt inexplicably festive and looked very cute, like a walking elf.
"Not bad, I just bought this set." Xiulan nodded.
"How much is this, boss?" Lin Heng turned around and asked.
“This set costs 15 yuan, and I can give her a little flower hat.” The female boss said with a smile.
"Give me another pair of gloves." Lin Heng counter-offered.
After negotiating the price, Lin Heng successfully got a pair of woolen gloves for his daughter.
Then he bought her a pair of cotton shoes, and then picked out clothes for Xiulan.
Lin Heng first bought two pairs of pork shreds, which made Xiulan roll her eyes.
“This wool coat is pretty good, what do you think?”
After searching for a while, Lin Heng found a pretty good mid-length khaki wool coat.
Xiulan looked at the price on the tag and said, "No, I'd better buy a cotton-padded jacket. This clothes is a bit expensive."
This wool coat actually cost sixty yuan. It looked good, but it was too expensive and she was reluctant to spend it.
"You put it on and take a look before talking." Lin Heng said with a smile.
"It must look good. Your wife is so beautiful and looks good in anything she wears." The saleswoman next to her said with a smile.
Lin Heng asked Xiulan to change into it. When she put on this dress, she looked much more beautiful. "I'll buy it if you give me a scarf." Lin Heng said with a big wave of his hand.
"Okay, I'll put it up for you." The saleswoman's eyes lit up. It's rare to see such a generous customer.
An ordinary scarf is nothing in comparison.
Coming out with the clothes, Xiulan was happy and helpless. She hugged Lin Heng’s arm and said, "These are my clothes for the New Year. I won’t buy them for the New Year."
Lin Heng smiled and nodded: "That's okay. I'll buy you a cheaper cotton-padded jacket."
Xiulan couldn't resist him and beat him without giving up, so she could only buy another one with a white Plum blossom red cotton jacket.
This time it was a normal cotton-padded jacket with vertical buttons, giving Xiulan a sober and elegant feel.
Then I bought two pairs of cotton pants, one pure black and one with small red roses.
As for shoes, I bought Xiulan a pair of black cotton shoes and a pair of brown mid-calf boots.
"Are you happy now?" Xiulan squeezed Lin Heng's hand and pursed her lips.
The shoes and clothes bought for her and her daughter cost a total of one hundred and thirty-eight yuan, which was too luxurious.
"You said you won't buy anything during the New Year, so you must buy something better." Lin Heng said with a smile and spread his hands.
"Okay, then I will choose a set for you." Xiulan looked at him and said.
Lin Heng loves black, so Xiulan bought him a black military coat and a navy blue cotton-padded jacket.
I bought two pairs of cotton pants in a solid color. For shoes, Lin Heng chose a pair of brown woolen big-toe shoes and a pair of ordinary cotton shoes.
His set costs one hundred and two yuan, which is not very expensive. After all, they are all cotton clothes, so they are not much more expensive.
Finally, I bought a pair of cotton shoes for my parents and Caiyun, as well as all the things I had brought with me at home.
"It's too expensive. I still like the place you took me to for the first time." Xiulan shook her head and said as she walked out of the mall.
"As long as you are happy, enjoy it more and don't think too much." Lin Heng pulled her and said with a smile.
This is the most upscale place in Taibai City, and the clothes are naturally not cheap.
But he is actually not satisfied. If the transportation was not inconvenient now, he would really like to take them to Ancheng to buy clothes.
"Of course I'm happy, I just feel bad about the money." Xiulan said softly. She was so happy that the person she loved the most bought her clothes.
After handing the things to Wang Zhou to look at, Lin Heng took their mother and daughter to the central hospital for a full-body examination.
"It's not necessary, Xiaoxia and I are both fine." Xiulan pursed her lips and said.
Lin Heng shook his head and was very determined about this: "That's not possible. We will know after a checkup. I will take you and your parents for checkups every year in the future."
Rural people generally have this kind of mentality. They are worried about money and dare not go to the hospital. But sometimes it is easy to turn a minor illness into a serious one.
When Lin Heng explained these principles to Xiulan, she understood and went to the hospital with Lin Heng.
After a check-up at the central hospital, the results were that all three of them were healthy, but Xiulan's blood sugar was slightly low.
Xiaoxia also gave oral polio vaccine, which can very effectively prevent the occurrence of polio.
After leaving the hospital, Xiaoxia was still lying in Lin Heng's arms, her eyes were red and she had a toffee in her mouth.
"Bad~" Xiaoxia said angrily, pointing in the direction of the hospital.
She was crying in pain just after a blood test was taken.
"Well, they are bad~" Lin Heng agreed with a smile. She hadn't heard Xiaoxia cry so loudly for a long time, which was really funny.
Xiulan looked at her watch and said, "What else should we do next? It'll be one o'clock soon."
Lin Heng thought for a while and said, "Let's go have a meal first. In the afternoon I went to buy something and left.”
Meet up with Wang Zhou and the four of them had cold skin and vegetable steamed buns together.
After dinner, I went to find Li Chengguo in the afternoon. When he saw Lin Heng, he quickly greeted with a smile: "Boss Lin, why did you come down here in person?"
"Take my wife and daughter to buy some things and go to the hospital for a test." Check, let me tell you something by the way." Lin Heng said casually.
"You two are a perfect match, and the girl is also pretty. Come and sit in the room quickly." Li Chengguo said with a smile, he was still a little surprised by Xiulan's appearance.
Xiulan simply put on eyebrows and put on lipstick, but her regular facial features, face shape, and fair skin made her instantly kill 90% of women.
“That’s no need, I’ll leave as soon as I finish talking.”
Lin Heng shook his head and asked again: "Did you buy my fireplace?"
"I bought it, you come with me." Li Chengguo led the three of them into the warehouse.
Several beautiful black fireplaces are placed here, with different shapes.
"You said you wanted a rectangular one, I'm going to pull this one up for you." Li Chengguo pointed to one of them and said.
Lin Heng lifted it up. The black fireplace must weigh at least one hundred and fifty kilograms, plus the two to three hundred kilograms for the chimney.
What satisfied him most about this fireplace was that he could watch the fire. The lid was inlaid with high-temperature-resistant crystal. After closing the lid, he could still watch the fire through the crystal.
In fact, many people build their own fireplaces with bricks. He chose to buy one to watch the fire and one to prevent smoke from leaving the room.
The kind of fireplace you built yourself will have smoke coming out. This kind of fireplace is made of steel and is fully enclosed, so there is no such problem.
"How much does it cost?" Lin Heng asked, he was still satisfied with the stuff.
Li Guocheng said: "One hundred yuan, this high-temperature-resistant crystal is worth money, otherwise you can take this stove for sixty yuan. I really haven't made a penny from this stove that we have cooperated with for a long time."< br>
Lin Heng was quite satisfied with the price, and then took out the list of goods and handed it to him: "Our village has electricity, and we need to buy some wire switches and light bulbs. You can get a batch for me according to the list and bring it up tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."
"That's no problem. Leave it with me and deliver it to you tomorrow." Li Chengguo grinned and agreed.
After things were done here, Lin Heng chatted for a few words and then went home.
He didn't go to Ge Qingshan. He took his wife and children with him today. Let's wait until next time. Mainly, there is nothing to teach. Bows and arrows require a lot of practice, and there are not many skills.
When a few people returned to Hongfeng Village, the sky was so dark that they could barely see their fingers clearly.
I quickly lit a fire when I got home, it was so cold that I almost froze to death.
Early the next morning, Lin Heng gave them the things he brought with him.
"You have clothes, but you don't have shoes." Lin Heng handed the cotton shoes to his parents and sister.
“Thank you, second brother!” Caiyun grinned.
Father and Mrs. Lin are also very happy. They really need a pair of good cotton shoes.
"Thank you son~" Father Lin was not polite either.
Mother Lin put it on her feet and tried it on, the expression on her face was full of love.
"As long as you like it." Lin Heng grinned. He knew that his parents were this kind of people. They didn't want to talk about anything they lacked, and they didn't want to spend money randomly.
Father Lin looked at him and said: "The Hongfeng Mountain side is expected to be completed tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. Have you thought about what to do next?"
Lin Heng nodded: "I want to do it. Okay, I will arrange it when the time comes.”
"Just think about it. You can't have no work. I'll give you a lot of money in one day."
Lin Heng nodded and chatted for a few more words. Mother Lin was going to make vermicelli tomorrow and asked everyone to help.
At noon, Lin Heng couldn't wait to drive the carriage to the town. He wanted to take his fireplace home and install it quickly. There was no fireplace in the bedroom and it was too cold at night.
