He saw Zhao Fang riding a bicycle and parked in front of him.
Bai Hao stretched out his hand and punched Zhao Fang: "They're all on the bicycle."
Zhao Fang patted his bicycle seat: "I picked it up from the scrap heap. I repaired it and it's okay, but I don't have money to buy a brake lever. The front and rear brakes cost four and a half yuan in total, and four pairs of brake pads are included. What are you doing here?
?”
"No, let's see if there are any sewing tickets."
Zhao Fang rolled his eyes at the young man: "How much do you want?"
"eighteen."
"Get out of here as far as you can. If you are scalping votes here in the woods, every one of you counts. I have never seen your face. But no one in this area dares to ask us for eighteen, so you should get out of here."
"Zhao Fang looked at the money in this man's hand again and asked, "What's going on with this money?"
"Money to change, money to change."
Zhao Fang grabbed it and was about to drive people away when the young man immediately said: "On the 11th, I just picked up the goods from the store in the Textile City."
Zhao Fang then asked Bai Hao: "Do you really want it?"
Bai Hao said: "Eleven is a conscientious price. Eighteen is not a shady price. I heard my sister mentioned that she sold the sewing ticket at home for 14 yuan. She was still scalping it.
Take it away, not sell it directly."
After saying that, Bai Hao stretched out: "Speaking of which, I don't think there is any use for having a sewing machine at home, but other people have them at home, and I feel that I should have one at home. I met it now, so I asked a few questions.
Let’s talk about it later.” After Bai Hao finished speaking, he gave the ticket seller a cigarette and waved his hand: “Let’s go, see you later.”
Zhao Fang pushed the bicycle and walked quickly for a few steps.
After the two of them walked away, Zhao Fang said to Bai Hao: "Daqiao came to me just now and gave me seventy-five yuan. You said you gave him seven hundred yuan."
Bai Hao replied: "Daqiao said he was borrowing it and would pay it back to me slowly over the course of a few years. I didn't want to, but I was afraid of hurting Daqiao's face, so I let him go. I just wandered around and didn't think of anything.
It's something that allows Daqiao to make some money. If Daqiao and his partner want to get married, they will probably be starved, but if it is delayed for a long time, it is always not a good thing."
"That's right. When I was working last year, my father said that all the money in the house was empty. I didn't even dare to think about a TV set. I just had a sewing machine, a bicycle, a radio, plus furniture and so on. I didn't know how to spend a thousand yuan, so I didn't know how to spend it.
Already."
Hearing what Zhao Fang said, Bai Hao stopped and said, "Zhao Fang, I went around Yangcheng and made a lot of money."
Zhao Fang shook his head. He knew what Bai Hao was going to say, and was about to persuade Bai Hao to give up his idea. Lu Qiao had already asked Bai Hao to do such a big favor, and he would definitely not let Bai Hao pay to help him get married and settle down again.
Zhao Fang was about to say something when he heard someone shouting from a distance.
The two of them looked back and saw that it was Li Qiang. He was walking this way at a trot.
Zhao Fang immediately said: "Don't mention your making money again."
Seeing Li Qiang running up to him, he gasped and asked, "What are you talking about?" Zhao Fang frowned. Also, Haozi, your coat is beautiful. I heard that you went to Yangcheng. This dress was bought in Yangcheng. It's so beautiful.
How much did it cost?”
Bai Hao smiled: "I just told Zhao Fang that I got a pack of good cigarettes in Yangcheng. I promise you won't recognize it, but he doesn't believe it."
Zhao Fang also followed these words and continued: "Of course I don't believe it. There is a boy in our courtyard who collects cigarette boxes. I have seen him a lot."
Bai Hao took out his cigarettes and handed one to Zhao Fang: "Here's one."
Zhao Fang took a look at the cigarette case and found that he really didn't recognize it.
Li Qiang also grabbed one and bit it in his mouth.
Bai Hao took out the lighter, flicked it and then drew a stroke on Zhao Fang's sleeve. The flame came out and lit the cigarette for Zhao Fang. Zhao Fang took a sip and closed his eyes to taste it.
"Good, good smoke."
Li Qiang's eyes warmed to Bai Hao's lighter. Bai Hao threw the lighter directly to Li Qiang: "It's for adding kerosene. I have a small box of flint at home. I'll give it to you another day." Li Qiang took the lighter and liked it so much that he waved it around.
He quickly hid aside: "Don't, my clothes will be ruined if they stick to the fire."
Li Qiang asked the question just now: "This coat is really beautiful. How much did it cost? I bought it in Yangcheng. If I have one and meet the person my family told me about, I will definitely get it."
"Yes." Bai Hao hesitated for a moment, then looked at Zhao Fang again, he was really hesitant, and finally said: "I didn't buy this in Yangcheng, I bought it in Xiangjiang, it's more than five hundred... US dollars
."
Li Qiang froze on the spot instantly.
He wanted to borrow it to wear.
But this sounds like, even if it is more than 500 Xia national coins, it is still his salary for a year.
Very embarrassing.
But Zhao Fang laughed: "You are really not afraid of the cold if you wear such thin clothes."
"Well, it's a bit cold." Bai Hao was not actually cold, he just followed Zhao Fang's words and said so.
Next, there was nothing to say. When they arrived at the cafeteria, Zhao Fang ran to order. Bai Hao could not order. Zhao Fang was afraid that Bai Hao would order too much. Zhao Fang ordered four dishes, two meat and two vegetarian dishes, plus one
A pot of crucian carp and tofu soup cost a total of one yuan and eighty-five cents, plus two kilograms of food stamps.
Then there was a bottle of wine, which cost 70 cents. It was very ordinary liquor.
Before the food was served, Lu Qiao ran to get four empty glasses and poured hot water for everyone. These days, it's good if the waiter doesn't shame you. You dare to ask the waiter to clean the table and pour water for you. It's obviously
Asking for a beating.
Therefore, you have to do it yourself when picking up dishes, pouring water, and holding chopsticks.
The chopsticks, bowls, and water glasses were all placed, and the four of them sat down. Li Qiang reached out and asked Bai Hao for a cigarette: "Take another one of your good cigarettes, and give it to Daqiao to try, so that Daqiao can also see what he has never seen before.
of smoke.”
Bai Hao put the cigarette on the table and was about to hand it to Lu Qiao. Li Qiang put the cigarette into his pocket: "I see you still have a pack in your pocket. This half pack belongs to me." He took the cigarette away and said,
Li Qiang continued: "Today I gave our team leader all the good words before I ran out to eat with you, Haozi. I have been working overtime these days. If I don't work overtime, I will lose 85 cents in overtime pay and 50 cents in bonus. But
What a big loss.”
Although he only smoked four cigarettes from that pack, Bai Hao didn't mind.
Li Qiang is not a bad person, but he is very strict at home and has to hand over his salary, so he will quickly lend a hand if he can take advantage. When something really happens, he is also very loyal.
Although Bai Hao didn't mind, Zhao Fang grabbed the cigarette and took out a handful directly from the cigarette case, which made Li Qiang feel bad: "Zhao Fang, you are so cruel."
Zhao Fang gave half of the cigarette to Lu Qiao and then asked: "Haozi, what kind of cigarette is this? Is it expensive?"
"It's not sold on the market. A leader gave it to me. I heard it costs seven or eight yuan a pack."
After Bai Hao finished speaking, Li Qiang, who was about to light a cigarette, quickly stuffed the cigarette back into the cigarette case: "This is amazing, one cigarette is almost as valuable as a pack of golden monkeys, it's really so expensive."
"Well, really, this is the only pack I have." After Bai Hao finished speaking, he took out a pack of sheep from his pocket and placed it on the table.
