Siheyuan: Walking the Path of Qin Huairu

Big Eyes fell out of favor because of the thief in the house. Except for Li'er and Kunkun, the adults all looked down on him.

Watchdog, watchdog, if you can't guard the gate, you are not a good dog.

Recently, the food quality of Big Eyes has declined. Yingzi angrily said to it: "People can't even get enough to eat, you dog, you are lucky to not starve to death."

Fortunately, Li'er would occasionally leave some delicious food for it.

Li'er sat on a small stool and said, "Big Eyes, dance for me and I'll give you some meat."

Big Eyes cried "woo woo woo" and looked very aggrieved. But there was no food in his stomach, so he had to twist his butt to walk around for food.

KunKun clapped his hands and said, "Little butt, wiggling. Little butt, so round."

After the performance, Lier said, "Keep bowing to the young master again."

Big Eyes bent his front hooves, knelt on the ground, and slowly lowered his proud head.

Li'er was happy, so he threw a piece of meat bone to it. Kunkun stretched out his little hand, stroked Da'er's head, and watched it enjoy the food. He praised: "Da'er, great."

Xu Huizhen warned it: "Big Eyes, stay at home and don't sneak out, or you will be stewed and eaten as dog meat."

Da Yaner stared at me with his big dog eyes pitifully. His owner didn't love him anymore. This life is too hard, really too hard. I will never accept other people's feeding in the future. One misstep will lead to eternal regret.

He Yuzhu was still in charge of buying seafood. He sent his apprentice Shuanzi back to prepare seafood. Shuanzi was very happy. He hadn't been home for a long time and missed home very much. What a wonderful thing it was to have a paid vacation!

He Yuzhu counted out 800 yuan, handed it to him, and said, "This 800 yuan is a deposit. Take it back and ask your father to prepare seafood. Anything is fine. We are not picky. If your village doesn't have enough, go to the nearby villages to collect it. If you have enough for two trucks, call me and I will take the car to transport it. Let's keep the price as it is. If not, you can raise it a little bit. It's not easy for fishermen either."

Feng Dashuan cried, "Master, I have never seen so much money before! What if I lose it on the train? You should take it with you when you go."

He Yuzhu: "Without a deposit, can your father receive the goods from the sea?"

Feng Dashuan: "Why not? You underestimate my father's influence in the surrounding villages. The surrounding fishing villages all learned to grow kelp from our village. I owe him a big favor."

He Yuzhu: "Then bring 300 yuan. Money makes things easier. Keep it close to you and be careful not to lose it."

Feng Dashuan had a bitter face: "Okay."

Four days later, Feng Dashuan called and said the goods were ready, and asked He Yuzhu to take three vehicles to transport them.

With the experience of the previous trip to Inner Mongolia, the security department rushed to join the armed escort. Those who were selected went home to apply for a lot of money, packed their clothes, and some prepared sacks and prepared to go to Tianjin to buy seafood, buying whatever they liked to eat.

Xu Huizhen was going to go with them this time, so Kunkun asked Han Qingqiu to take care of him at home and left him some milk powder and milk tofu.

KunKun is almost two years old. In later times, children of this age would have been weaned, but in this era, children would be breastfed for a longer time. Xu Huizhen followed the local customs and had not yet weaned him.

He had agreed with his cheap uncle in advance to prepare seafood for him, the more the better. He used the excuse that he was preparing New Year's goods for the Daqianmen neighborhood committee and the handicraft factory.

She just wanted to use the space to resell seafood and make some extra money for herself.

By the way, bring some food to my cousin's husband. I guess they will be even more short of food in this year of disaster.

We set out in the morning and had a smooth journey. We arrived at Shawang Village in the afternoon without any accidents. Compared with Inner Mongolia, going to Tianjin is safer. First, the distance is short, and second, the road is not so remote.

This time they were purchasing on behalf of the steel mill, without being sneaky. After some pleasantries, He Yuzhu and Chen Bin were responsible for counting the quantity of goods.

Feng Dashuan suggested taking the others to see the sea, as many of them had never seen the sea.

Although Tianjin is not far from Beijing, the transportation is inconvenient in this era. Most people don't travel if they have nothing to do. The main reason is that they can't afford to travel, even if they are poor. Wouldn't it be nice to buy some food with that money and let the family have something good?

How does the song go: I want to go to Guilin, I want to go to Guilin, but when I have time I have no money!

When you have enough food and clothing, you will think about sex. You have to solve the problem of food and clothing first before you can think about other things.

Secretary Feng Dahai is now very good at this operation. The seafood is prepared in different categories. The dried seafood is packed in sacks, and the fresh seafood is frozen into rectangular blocks for easy transportation. Shellfish are also packed in baskets, and each package is weighed and has a uniform weight for easy measurement.

Chen Bin's heart was beating fast when he saw these seafood. These days, nothing is more exciting than eating. He Yuzhu's is a little better, but as a chef, he also smiles when he sees the ingredients. There's nothing he can do about it. It's an occupational disease.

It is not necessary to weigh every piece, just randomly select a few and check. Chen Bin picked a few pieces at random and weighed them. The fishermen were very loyal and sincere in order to have a long-term business.

Dried kelp is 3 cents per pound, dried shrimp skin is 5 cents per pound, large shrimps are cents per pound, large sea bream is cents per pound, hairtail is cents per pound, Spanish mackerel is cents per pound, and small miscellaneous fish and shrimps mixed together are cents per pound.

This price was set by Xu Huizhen, which was about 50% higher than the previous price. The bottom line is that it cannot be completely exposed, otherwise how can it be operated in the future. Moreover, it is a time of famine, so it is reasonable to increase the price a little.

In return, Secretary Feng decided to send a batch of seafood to Xu Huizhen. As the village secretary, he understood this principle.

Chen Bin was very satisfied with the price. It was cheap, too cheap. You couldn't buy it even if you had money in Beijing.

After counting the quantity and calculating the price, it was getting late. He Yuzhu decided to stay in the village for one night and leave for Beijing tomorrow morning.

As for those who went to the beach, when they got there, they saw the vast sea. At the end of their vision, the blue sea and the blue sky merged into one, boundless and magnificent.

Seabirds fly freely over the sea, sometimes screaming, sometimes diving, and sometimes spreading their wings, each showing off their superb flying skills.

Everyone was shocked by the scene before them, and someone shouted excitedly: "Ocean, I love you!"

Some shouted: "The horse has four legs. The sea is full of water!" This sentence is made up by the author. This joke probably didn't exist in that era, haha.

The howling cold wind couldn't stop everyone's passion, and the coconut breeze couldn't stop it, absolutely couldn't stop it.

Everyone was freezing and happy. Some followed the ups and downs of the sea, jumping around like children, chasing the rhythm of the sea.

Some people see shells on the beach and pick them up excitedly, preparing to take them home as toys for their children, and by the way, tell their children about their pride in having seen the sea.

As a result, someone accidentally picked up a live conch and excitedly asked Feng Dashuan: "Shuanzi, take a look, is this edible?" Please forgive him for never having eaten it before.

Feng Dashuan: "Yes, you can. Come, I will teach you how to go fishing. Let my mother cook seafood for you in the evening. You can eat as much as you want until you don't want to eat anymore."
