Chapter 48 Is this repaying kindness with kindness?
Chen Hongjun was warming himself by the fire and was a little surprised when he saw Li Long coming in.
"Little comrade, it's you!" Chen Hongjun recognized Li Long and stood up with a smile, "I haven't seen you here for several days. What good things have you got today?"
When they were changing shifts, they heard their colleague Xu Lili say that there was a guy from the mountains who was selling deer antlers. She originally wanted to get it at a low price, but she didn’t expect that they knew the goods and wouldn’t sell them at a low price, so she had to raise the price to three yuan.
At that time, Chen Hongjun guessed that it was probably Li Long.
I just didn't expect that this young man didn't sell antlers according to his shift time. Was it because he was short of time or because he didn't have enough friendship?
"You are so kind." Li Long smiled and said, "I don't know if you will accept the things I brought today."
"Let's take a look." Chen Hongjun naturally It's not easy to make a guarantee either.
Li Long placed the jade he took from Yushanjiang on the counter.
“Stone?” Chen Hongjun frowned, took a closer look, and then asked in surprise:
"Are you...Mahe Jasper?"
"Yes, seed material." Li Long smiled, at least he knew the goods. If it was really a stone, he would just pick it up and walk away.
"Well...we really don't accept it here." Chen Hongjun shook his head, "We collect local products and medicinal materials. This jade is a good thing, but we don't accept it here."
"Then do you know where to collect it?" Li Long was a little disappointed, but he was not discouraged. This kind of good thing will only become more valuable the more you put it away. If he were not short of money and needed to buy something, he would just put the things at home and keep them for twenty or thirty years before taking them out.
"This... usually is collected by places that process handicrafts." Chen Hongjun reminded, "We are a small county and there is no such unit, even in Shicheng. If you want to find it, you can only go Wucheng.”
Li Long cupped his hands at the other party:
"Thank you! Then I won't bother you. Goodbye!"
"Okay, if you have any other medicinal materials like antlers, you can bring them over. I'll We won't give low prices here."
Li Long suddenly thought of the things in his car and what he had seen in novels before, and asked:
"Do you want to take away the wild boar belly? ”
This is also a medicinal material and is said to be good for treating stomach problems.
"Take it." Chen Hongjun was a little surprised, but thinking about the antlers Li Long brought last time, he guessed that the other party probably lived on the mountainside, and said with a smile:
"Take it, Depending on the size and year of the wild boar, they usually cost three to five yuan each. Do you have it with you now? "
Li Long is a little disappointed, it seems that these things still can't be sold for money. He pointed outside and said:
"There are two wild boars whose bellies haven't been picked out yet. It will take two days until I go back and clean up the pigs."
"What?" Chen Hongjun was a little surprised, "You got two wild boars? Are they real or fake?"
He collected things every day, but what he received were all finished products. He had seen a lot of antlers and antlers. , but I haven’t seen many red deer, let alone wild boars.
“Let’s see?” Li Long smiled. This time, it was his turn to teach others.
Chen Hongjun followed Li Long out. Li Long took off the wood and grass covering the wild boar. Chen Hongjun went over curiously and saw the tusks in the big wild boar's mouth at a glance.
“This wild boar is so big!” He had seen domestic pigs before, and this wild boar was really quite big in comparison.
"Well, it took three shots to kill him. It's very fierce."
"You wild boar... do you want to sell it? I want to buy some wild boar meat to try." Chen Hongjun asked on a whim.
"Then it hasn't been processed yet, and there's no way to start selling it." Li Long waved his hand, "I can't just cut a piece and sell it to you, right? Besides, this wild boar won't taste good if it's not processed well. To be honest, Chen Comrade, this meat is really not as delicious as pork.”
We will have to deal with him frequently in the future, and Li Long will not try to trick this person. "That's it." Chen Hongjun was a little disappointed, but his curiosity was still greater than his taste. He said:
"You go home and finish it, and bring it to me as a whole piece. I will buy it and try it. No. I’ve eaten it before and want to try it again.”
"Okay." Li Long agreed happily, "I'll bring it over in two days - you work on 135, right?"
"Yes, yes, then Don't forget to bring the wild boar belly."
"Okay." Li Long covered the wood and grass, tied the rope and led the horse away.
At this time, the Li family was in chaos.
Because the Lu family's sister-in-law came to the Li family and told Li Jianguo and Liang Yuemei that there was a rumor in the village that both Tao Dayong and Tao Daqiang had been arrested.
There are also rumors that Li Long was also caught selling things on the black market.
This scared Li Jianguo and Liang Yuemei!
The whole village knew about Gu Ermao's arrest. Tao Dayong's arrest had only just spread, and many people didn't know yet.
By the time Tao Daqiang returned home, the county had already called the township, and then transferred it to the team. Xu Chengjun angrily went to find Tao Jianshe, and happened to meet Tao Daqiang running back.
"Fifty yuan! Your Tao Dayong was caught and fined fifty yuan. Hurry up and collect the money. You and I can go get him! By the way, Daqiang, why did you come back?"
"Someone wearing an armband came over, and we ran away..." Tao Daqiang was still in shock, mumbling incomprehensibly.
Xu Chengjun didn't expect him either. Tao Daqiang himself had a low sense of presence and was stupid in the eyes of others. Both Tao Jianshe and Xu Chengjun thought he was lucky.
Tao Jianshe also dreamed of getting rich one day, but Xu Chengjun extinguished it with one sentence.
"How could he be caught?" Tao Jianshe muttered to himself in despair. Then the waiter of the Li family sold fish several times without being caught. How come he was caught when it was his turn?
"How can we have time to talk about this here again?" Xu Chengjun understood. He shouted loudly: "If you don't go, you still don't know what kind of beating your family Dayong will get!"
Tao Jianshe listened. , immediately got up and ran into the back room, took out a handful of loose money, and said with a sad face: "I only have more than eleven yuan..."< br>
"I have five yuan here." Tao Daqiang took out the money from the pocket of his cotton coat, "I'll borrow it..."
"Then you go and borrow it quickly, and I'll go find your sister-in-law. Dayong was arrested, and she has to tell her..."
Tao Daqiang came to Li's house and told Li Jianguo what happened.
"How much do you borrow?" Li Jianguo asked happily, "I still have twenty here."
He took twenty to Tao Daqiang. Tao Daqiang took the money, lowered his head, and had mixed feelings in his heart.
Many people in the team did not earn more than 20 yuan a year, but Li Jianguo took it out immediately.
He knew this was for the sake of his relationship with Li Long. And I just broke up with Li Long. Is it authentic to do this?
“Go home quickly.” Li Jianguo urged him, “Your dad should still be waiting for money to get your brother.”
Tao Daqiang returned home. After a while, Tao Jianshe came back. Looking at the twenty in Tao Daqiang's hand, he thought that he finally had enough.
Ma Chunhong only paid fifteen yuan, saying that was all the money she had.
Now, no money has been earned, both families have lost all their money, and they still owe twenty yuan!
When Xu Chengjun and Tao Jianshe went to the county to pick up people, the story of Tao Dayong's arrest was fermenting in the village, and more people were spreading the news that Li Long had also been arrested!
