Chapter 69 The Golden Age ([-])

The team leader warmly invited Han Guishan to stay for dinner and overnight, and Han Guishan followed suit, and the two of them never talked about the goods in the snakeskin bag.

The villagers gathered around to watch, and they had seen enough of the excitement. Seeing that the salesman had been left behind by the brigade captain, they all dispersed.Those who went to the fields went to the fields, those who went home to do housework did housework, those who played in the mud continued to play in the mud, and Han Guishan was dragged to his house by the team leader to drink.

When it comes to drinking, each person takes a small cup, which can be finished in half a sip by visual inspection, and there is a small plate of peanuts that can be counted by the naked eye on the table.The team leader asked his wife and daughter-in-law to cook some delicious dishes in the kitchen, and then dragged Han Guishan into the house to argue.

"Where is the Korean shopkeeper from?" The captain ate a peanut and squinted his eyes so beautifully.

"I'm from Shencheng." Han Guishan said.

The captain was shocked, and sat upright: "It's not easy to come to our small place in Shencheng, it's not easy. Han peddler, what did you bring?"

"It's just some gadgets, nothing expensive." Han Guishan said, "Captain, I didn't seem to see a supply and marketing cooperative in the village just now. I came from the provincial capital. There is a department store in the provincial capital, and there is also a supply and marketing cooperative in County Y. , you guys..."

"Han Merchant, you are from a big city like Shencheng. Where have you ever been to a small place like ours? We are covered with mountain roads, and it is difficult for people to walk, let alone a car. Every year, we rely on people to carry out the food. The fields are all terraced fields. Hey, you don’t understand. There are no supply and marketing cooperatives in the seven or eight villages near us. The nearest supply and marketing cooperative has to walk for a day. I went to buy all the things I wanted to buy at one time, and the supply and marketing cooperative over there was always out of stock, hey..." The captain frowned as soon as he talked about the road, "We, in the deep mountains, can't die of starvation, and we can't die of hunger." With no money, girls from other places are unwilling to marry except in famine years, and they are all married in a few neighboring villages. My youngest son, hey..."

"By the way, Korean shopkeeper, how did you come here, from County X?"

"I came from county y," Han Guishan said.

"County Y? It's terrible, you have to walk for two or three days, the Korean shopkeeper. It's really hard. If you go to Anhe Brigade, you still have to walk for more than half a day. The road is difficult. Why don't you see... Han peddler, are you all the peddlers?" The team leader Tuqiong saw the dagger.

When the conversation got to this point, Han Guishan stopped hiding, opened the snakeskin bag, and showed the contents inside.

The team leader's eyes were straightened, and he felt that his hands were dirty and dare not touch them, so he couldn't help sighing: "Oh, this towel is so soft, and this toothbrush, from Shencheng, can be used for at least ten years. It looks very soft. Hey, this dress, what is this, what..."

"Sea soul shirt." Han Guishan said.

"Yes, yes, sea soul shirt! Only people in big cities wear it!" The team leader was amazed, "This cup, ouch, and pants, these pants, these are..."

"boot cut pant."

"It must be popular in big cities, right?" The team leader couldn't put it down because of Han Guishan Road's goods.

"Yes, it's the kind worn by celebrities in Hong Kong City." Han Guishan opened his eyes and said nonsense. Flared pants were popular a few years ago, and now they are already popular. Not to mention Shencheng, people in provincial cities don't think it's rare.

After looking at the goods, the captain was even more determined not to let Han Guishan go.

Han Guishan's goods are not available to the supply and marketing cooperatives. The only things that can be bought are toothbrushes and cups, but Han Guishan's toothbrush bristles are softer than those sold by the supply and marketing cooperatives, and the cups are more fashionable and beautiful than the enamel cups sold by the supply and marketing cooperatives.The enamel cups of the supply and marketing cooperative are very expensive, and only the team leader and the accountant have them in the whole village, and the villagers will look at them enviously when they drink water from them.

The more you compare it with the things from the supply and marketing cooperative, the more the captain thinks Han Guishan's things are better, and the less he dares to ask the price.

Can he afford such a good thing?
The captain hesitated.

"Which, Korean shopkeeper, this toothbrush, how do you sell the toothbrush?" The team leader didn't dare to ask about clothes and cups, which are expensive at first glance, and pointed at the toothbrush cautiously.

The team leader felt that if the price was the same as that of the supply and marketing cooperative, he would buy one for his youngest son and one for his wife. The toothbrush bristles of the supply and marketing cooperative were too hard, and the two of them would get their mouths bleeding when they accidentally brushed them.

"A dime." Han Guishan said, he bought these toothbrushes in Shencheng for less than 5 cents each.

A toothbrush in the provincial capital costs 7 cents, and a toothbrush in county y costs 8 cents. Han Guishan bet that the supply and marketing society near the barley production team, which is farther and farther than county y, sells it more expensive than county y.

The captain was moved.

The toothbrush of the supply and marketing cooperative costs 1 cent and 2 pieces.

"I want 2... No, I want 12!" The captain gritted his teeth and decided to buy one for everyone in the family, including his 2-year-old grandson.

"Towels cost 4 cents and 6 yuan, sea soul shirts cost 19 yuan, flared pants 23 yuan, enamel cups cost 4 yuan, and tin frogs cost 7 yuan and 3 yuan." Han Guishan compared the prices of the supply and marketing cooperatives in County Y, and began to quote.

The captain felt that he was going to be unable to breathe, he wanted everything, even a tin frog he had never heard of, and he didn't even know what it was, yet he wanted it too.

He doesn't care what frogs cost 3 yuan and 3, but they are frogs from Shencheng, maybe the frogs in Shencheng are sold for 3 yuan and 3!

The team leader felt that he needed to discuss it with his wife, after all, it was always his wife who took care of the money in the family.

"Well, Korean shopkeeper, you eat peanuts, eat peanuts, I'll make it easier for you." The team leader chose to urinate.

Jiang Feng didn't believe that he was going to the latrine like this and followed him.

The captain closed the door and ran to the kitchen.

The wife of the team leader was instructing the two daughters-in-law to wash vegetables and light the fire. The rare smell of meat was exuding from the pot. Seeing the team leader coming, he asked, "Aren't you staying with the shopkeeper in the house? It's not time for dinner yet, by the way, What does the peddler sell? Brown sugar? Cloth? Do you have scissors?"

The two daughters-in-law secretly pricked up their ears and listened.

"What kind of brown sugar cloth? Don't the supply and marketing cooperatives have it? You want to get the boss to walk two steps to buy it? The Korean shopkeeper came from Shencheng. I saw that they are all good things, big cities. Popular ones, clothes, trousers, toothbrush towels, those soft ones, and enamel cups, which are two yuan cheaper than the supply and marketing cooperatives and look better!" The team leader hurriedly said, "Then what kind of flared pants, in big cities Popular! Isn’t the third child going to the county to go to high school? Didn’t we say to buy him a pair of leather shoes at the beginning? The leather shoes of the supply and marketing cooperative cost 35 yuan, and the bell-bottom pants only cost 23 yuan. Isn’t it more fashionable to wear than leather shoes? The youngest, we will have a kiss next year, buy her a sea soul shirt, and my in-laws will not dare to bully her."

"Buy another enamel cup for the eldest and second child, as well as towels, toothbrushes, and for the daughter-in-law." The captain's wife looked at the two daughters-in-law calmly.

"Here... ok, that's it. I'll ask if there are any other frogs there. Hey, what's in this pot?" The team leader originally wanted to say that the two sons and one family would be fine with one towel. The daughter-in-law immediately changed her mind.

"Bacon, the second child, you go kill a chicken! Treat the shopkeeper well and let him come back next year. You'd better bring a candle. The kerosene lamp is too stinky to your eyes. It would be great if you could bring a sewing machine."

"Also the sewing machine, the road iron bumps in our place can be knocked off, how could there be a sewing machine. Don't worry, when the third child is successful in the future, we will be able to go to the town, maybe even the county, At that time, I didn’t want to buy anything.” The team leader comforted.

"Dad." The eldest daughter-in-law, who had been silent all this time, said, "Can you talk to the shopkeeper and ask him to bring some floral cloth next time."

"Yes, yes, there is also a thermos bottle. When I went back to my mother's house, my sister-in-law said that the thermos bottle is very useful." The second daughter-in-law followed suit.

"The second one, you kill the chicken for me, and return the thermos bottle. You can't drink cold water to death. It's so expensive. You, you go and accompany the peddler. Our village hasn't been to the peddler for more than ten years. If he can We come here every year, and we don’t have to spend more than ten days traveling to the town or the county to buy things.” The team leader’s wife gave orders.

After receiving the order, the captain went back to his room and continued to play Tai Chi with Han Guishan.

As soon as he entered the room, the team leader smiled and said, "Han peddler, my daughter will be married next year, and I want to buy her a dress with a more western style. You sea soul shirt, see if you can... "

"Captain, my price is already very cheap, maybe even the county can't sell it, my journey..."

"I know, but this, you can also see that we are poor, and we can buy a lot of cloth with 19 yuan. Look, can you, this..."

The two began to complain to each other, practicing Tai Chi.

One wants to bargain, and the other is determined not to.

Jiang Feng stared at it in a daze.

This mountain road, and the function of consecrating the head?

When Han Guishan was selling goods in the provincial capital a few days ago, he still opened his mouth and said "Ma'am, this is a defective product I bought from the factory", but now he really looks like a street peddler.

Jiang Feng couldn't help but sigh, a boss is a boss, this kind of inhuman learning ability is really beyond the reach of ordinary people.

The two of them behaved miserably like this, interspersed with chatting, until dinner time.Han Guishan finally gave in and was willing to sell the sea soul shirt to the team leader for 18 yuan and 2 cents, and he could also give him 2 toothbrushes, but only the team leader, and no one else could decide.

The team leader happily greeted Han Guishan to eat.

He will never know that these outdated Haihun shirts were bought by Han Guishan for 10 yuan and 3 cents.

The dinner was quite sumptuous, with big white rice, stewed old hen, roasted bacon with potatoes, fried wild vegetables and sweet potatoes with taro. Judging from the performance of the captain's two grandsons and a granddaughter, it was definitely a rare gluttonous feast.

"Han Merchant, what does Shencheng look like?" As soon as the captain's eldest son said this, everyone at the table looked at Han Guishan in unison. I took it back.

Han Guishan began to tell everyone about Shencheng.

Different from what he talked to Wang Jing before, Han Guishan chose the best ones to talk about this time.Foreign hotels, department stores, cars, elevators, TVs, ships, records, poster CDs, etc., these people who have never been out of the county town and deep in the mountains all their lives are stunned and yearning.

I didn't even eat the meal, and I was fascinated by it.

Before he finished speaking, someone came to the door.

It was one of the onlookers at the entrance of the village this morning.

"Captain, is the Korean peddler here?" The villagers put their hands in their pockets, approached the captain with a smile and asked in a low voice, "Do you know what the Korean peddler sells?"

Jiang Feng noticed that Han Guishan glanced outside the door and smiled.
