Chapter 70 Golden Age (4)
Han Guishan pretended not to notice what was happening outside, and continued to talk about Shencheng.
His voice was not loud, but it was enough to be heard by people outside.
"What did Mr. Han say?" The villager stretched his neck out of curiosity.
"What happened to him in Shencheng? The salesman Han is from Shencheng!" said the captain.
"Shenzhen City! Is it the Shenzhen City that is close to the port city and has a lot of money?" The villagers were shocked and sighed, "It's amazing! What is he selling!"
"They are all good things. The enamel cup is better-looking than the one from the supply and marketing cooperative, and it is two yuan cheaper! There is also a sea soul shirt. Didn't the accountant's daughter from the Shanliang Brigade buy one from the provincial capital? The one from the Korean salesman is better than the one from the supply and marketing cooperative." The ones she bought are pretty good.” The captain got the advantage and boasted about Han Guishan’s things.
"Her sea soul shirt cost more than 30 yuan. If I spent more than 30 yuan to buy a dress, my family would be incomparable to Northwest Wind this year." The villager's tone was full of envy.
"It doesn't cost more than thirty, just nineteen yuan, and bell-bottom pants. All the celebrities in Hong Kong City wear this. Twenty-three yuan. Isn't your third child getting married at the end of the year? Wearing that must be special." The captain said.
"It's too expensive. My eldest and second son must have objections." The villager said no, but his eyes betrayed him.
The two exchanged information at the door. The villagers found out what they wanted to know. They also heard that the captain was talking nonsense to Han Guishan. Okay, hurry home and share the information you heard with your family.
When the captain returned, Han Guishan's story had been told and everyone had finished their meal. The captain slapped his head and felt a little regretful. He was so bragging that he didn't even hear the story about Shencheng. That was Shencheng, a Shenzhen city that no one in their county had ever been to!
"Well, Mr. Han, you can stay here tonight. You can sleep in my third child's room. My third child is studying in the town. He is very promising and his grades are very good. The teachers at their school say he will definitely pass the exam. Go to the county high school!" the captain greeted, leading Han Guishan into the room.
Jiang Feng has already walked around the captain's house, and his third child's room is the best. It is very clean even if no one lives in it. The bed sheets and quilt covers are relatively new, and there are bookshelves and desks.
Han Guishan was tired for a day, so he wiped his body with water casually, soaked his feet and went to sleep.
Before going to bed, he did not forget to check the doors and windows to prevent any thief from stealing his snakeskin bag.
Han Guishan woke up early the next morning, but the villagers woke up earlier and waited for him to get up at the brigade leader's house without any complaints.
The same is true for supply and marketing cooperatives. If the door is not open, you have to wait. If there is no goods, it will be next time. Everyone is used to it.
Jiang Feng's scope of activities was limited. He spent one night figuring out all the places he could go. He listened to the villagers chatting outside. Although some people had strong accents and couldn't understand what they said, it didn't stop him from eating melons and watching the fun.
Last night, the villager went back and started to brag again. Then you brag and I brag. The whole village knows what Han Guishan sells and how much it costs. They also know that Han Guishan comes from Shenzhen and sells good things from big cities. .
The foreign wives in this production team are basically married from several nearby production teams. They are deeply afraid that Han Guishan will leave early in the morning to return to his parents' home without going to the production team where his parents' home is.
After Han Guishan got up, the villagers gathered around to buy goods. Even though they were mentally prepared, they still exclaimed in surprise when they saw Han Guishan laying out the things one by one.
"Oh oh oh, that's the Haihun shirt. I saw the salesperson wearing it when I went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy things last year!"
“This towel is so soft!”
"Shencheng's toothbrush is just different. The bristles are so soft, it will definitely not make your mouth full of blood."
"Wow, this..."
What each family wants to buy is discussed the night before, and it’s enough to satisfy your eye. Basically everyone buys toothbrushes, towels and enamel cups. The poorest families grit their teeth and buy a toothbrush to experience what a toothbrush from Shenzhen feels like. Six pieces of sea soul shirts were sold, and four pieces of trumpets were sold, all of which were bought by people who were getting married.
Han Guishan gave a toothbrush as a gift to anyone who bought something worth more than 20 yuan. The villagers who got the free toothbrushes were all happy, and they didn't feel bad about spending more than half a year's income at once, as if they had gotten a huge bargain.
After every household had bought everything they wanted, Han Guishan was ready to leave for the next production brigade.
As soon as he expressed his intention to leave, Han Guishan was stopped by a man from his wife's natal family. He was explained by the villagers in various dialects before he understood.
Seeing that Han Guishan stayed behind, the villagers breathed a sigh of relief. There are seven or eight production teams nearby, large and small, and they are all in the mountains just like them. They are far apart. If Han Guishan misses one of them and happens to be the production team of his wife's mother-in-law's family, I am afraid that several family fights will break out in the village. war.
Han Guishan himself didn't expect that such an operation could be possible. He was a salesman and didn't have to walk around the streets. The buyers came to him on their own across dozens of miles of mountain roads.
In the evening, people from the nearby production team arrived.
In 1987, the villagers in the Shudi Mountains were not inferior to the Taobao girls in the 21st century when it came to buying things. In just four days, as villagers from the nearby production team arrived one after another, two large snakeskin bags in Han Guishan were sold. Once empty, even the tin frogs were sold out.
He also gave three tin frogs to the three children of the captain's family. The three children stopped playing in the mud and became kings of children every day with the tin frogs.
Han Guishan spent another day counting what the villagers in each production brigade wanted, and also asked about the location of the more remote production brigade in Shu before leaving.
When Han Guishan arrived, he was dragging two snakeskin bags, which were dusty and dirty, and when he left, he returned to the provincial capital with a bulging bag of banknotes of various denominations.
The captain sent his eldest son to take Han Guishan on a shortcut to the town. Although it was in the opposite direction to the provincial capital, it only took a whole day to walk to the nearest town. Then take a ride (tractor) from a fellow villager and take a few shuttle buses to reach the provincial capital. It takes a long time, but the walking time is short, which is relatively less painful.
Along the way, Jiang Feng was almost knocked apart by the tractor.
After several days of hard work, Han Guishan finally returned to the provincial capital. He went to the bank to exchange most of the cents into twenty-fifty dollars, which amounted to several thousand yuan. After exchanging money, he finally arrived at the state-owned hotel where Jiang Feng thought about day and night.
There was no sound in the store, and Wang Jing was still sitting in the store in a daze.
"You...you..." Han Guishan wanted to say hello to Wang Jing, but when he opened his mouth, he realized that he didn't know her name.
"You're back!" Wang Jing saw Han Guishan stand up suddenly and saw that his hands were empty. "You weren't robbed on the road, were you? Or did you lose your things in a ravine? Are you hungry? Do you want me?" Go get you a bun? ”
"I'm sold out," Han Guishan said.
"What?" Wang Jing was stunned.
"I sold out. According to what you said, I went to the production team in the mountains below Y County. They were all sold out. Thank you." After saying that, Han Guishan gave Wang Jing a standard 90° bow, " I...I’ll treat you to dinner.”
"Really?"
"Really! I'll treat you to whatever you want to eat!" Han Guishan's face turned red.
"Master Jiang is still at work today. Master Jiang's fish head with chopped pepper is the most delicious. Today we have a bighead carp weighing more than 4 pounds. Do you really want to treat me to it? You have to think carefully about this dish. It costs more than thirty yuan!" Wang Jing pretended to be serious.
"I'll treat you to whatever you want to eat, including three hundred yuan." Han Guishan said.
"Master Jiang, chop the pepper fish heads, use the biggest one!" Wang Jing shouted inwardly.
Jiang Feng was not interested in the two men and women outside who were developing flirtations. He was focused on Master Jiang. When he heard that Master Jiang was in the kitchen, he hurried inside.
In the back kitchen, Master Jiang was catching the largest fresh fish in the bucket, weighing more than 4 pounds, and putting it on the chopping board.
Picking up the stick and banging it, the fish fainted. Master Jiang put down the stick and picked up the kitchen knife. His arms were obviously very strong. With one cut, a perfect fish head was cut off.
The way he kills the fish without scraping its scales and disemboweling it first is definitely a member of the Jiang family!
