Chapter 71 Sixties Chronicle 31
That day, the bicycle ticket Feng Wu gave Li Shuyi was exchanged for an easy job.
At the team headquarters, I learned how to weave and repair fishing nets from local fishermen. Because fishing boats are often out at sea, the rate of damage and replacement of fishing nets is high, and a large number of fishing nets are needed for fishing.
This job is easy. You don't have to stay on the sea every day exposed to the wind and sun. The only difference is that the growth rate is not high, only six centimeters a day.
Feng Wu didn't care about these few centimeters. Li Shuyi's body was not suitable for long-term hard work. Now that he was young, no major problems could be seen. When he got older, various complications would appear in his body.
Without any worries, he stayed in the fishing village for another two days. The vacation time was tight, so Feng Wu said goodbye to his aunt and left the small fishing village with his luggage on his back without waiting for his two cousins who went out to sea to come back.
The enthusiastic sister Hong Ying provided Fengwu with a donkey cart service from the fishing village to the county town.
When I arrived at the county town, I spent two cents to take a shabby bus heading to the city. The bus shook all the way to the city.
After buying the earliest train ticket back to Beijing, Feng Wu had lunch at a state-owned restaurant near the train station with a few hours left, and also packed a portion of fragrant braised pork.
The chef of this state-owned restaurant has good skills, especially the braised pork, which is fat but not greasy and lean but not dry, and melts in your mouth.
Feng Wu never thought that he would be so greedy for meat.
In recent years, the country has been in a difficult period, with food shortages everywhere. On his way from the north, Feng Wu has seen many hungry people collapsing on the roadside.
If she sees something, she can give some food to save lives, but how many people are starving to death in places she can't see?
Thinking of the farm warehouse full of food and looking at the big bowl of braised pork with rich oil and red sauce in the lunch box, Feng Wu still felt a little uncomfortable.
She is not a person who cares about the country and the people, and she has no sense of selfless dedication.
Forget it, since she has a problem in her heart, she is not the type to escape.
"System, check how much grain is in stock on the farm now?"
The system inexplicably sensed the host's low mood and did not dare to joke with the host. It immediately threw away the book in its hand and jumped into the farmer's interface.
Projecting the amount of all the food and fruits on the farm into the host's sea of consciousness, "Host, this food looks like a lot, but it's just a drop in the bucket if we spread it across the country."
The host alone cannot turn the tide. This is not the host's responsibility. There is no need to take on too much. It is just a task. Fulfilling the wishes of the task target and getting points are the fundamental reasons why they appear in this world.
I hope the host doesn't put the cart before the horse and let his character be affected by a small world mission, otherwise it would be counterproductive.
"I only do what I can. The development of the times cannot be influenced by an individual. As long as I have a clear conscience, that's all I need."
After deciding what to do next, Feng Wu no longer had the idea of walking around to kill time. He found a chair at the train station to sit down and rest, but his consciousness sank into the farm.
The tens of thousands of yuan previously deposited into the farm system were now almost gone, and purchasing large quantities of seeds required real money. The food grown on the farm could not be used as seeds, so if I wanted to continue farming on the farm, I had to spend real money.
She still had to go to the black market to find Brother Zhou to get some money, otherwise this super farm would dare to strike her.
When they got off the train, the people of Fengwu were already standing on the land of Jingshi. After not seeing it for a few months, Jingshi seemed to have not changed much, except for the snow all over the streets.
The old house in Jingshi was confiscated, and Feng Wu had to move out of the temporary rented house early. He found a guesthouse to put his luggage, and without waiting for dark, Feng Wu went directly to the black market.
During the day, many people from Beijing passed by the alleys wearing cotton jackets, hats and carrying baskets.
Feng Wu was carrying a cross-body bag and kept his eyes fixed on the road. As soon as he turned into another alley, he heard footsteps following him.
Just as I was about to turn around, someone approached me familiarly, "Hey, girl, do you want a scarf? It's a good item that just arrived..."
Feng Wu: “…No need.”
"Hey, girl, if you don't want a scarf, I have other things, floral cloth, hairbands, and lotion. I have everything you want!" The man with bubble eyes sounded a little arrogant.
"Do you have white rice, flour, eggs and pork?" Feng Wu also wanted to see the strength of his competitor.
Know yourself and your enemy, and you will never be defeated in a hundred battles.
The man with swollen eyes after waiting all night: "..." If he had these, he wouldn't have to stay up late at night to solicit business. If his family was able to make ends meet, he wouldn't have to steal the girls' things and sell them!
I thought I could find a sucker to sell some things for some money, but I didn’t realize that he didn’t have what the person wanted to buy?
He also wants white rice, flour, eggs and pork!
Ignoring the man with a conflicted look on his face, she was still anxious to go inside and look for someone!
It was the first time for Feng Wu to come to the black market during the day, so he didn't feel the urgency of the middle of the night. He knocked on the gate gently and heard people talking in low voices inside.
The voice sounded familiar. After making sure that he was in the right place, Feng Wu knocked on the door again, and this time the knocks were obviously in a regular pattern.
Three short and one long.
After a while, the door was opened from the inside. When the man inside saw Feng Wu's familiar face, his eyes suddenly lit up. "It's you, sister! I finally got you back. Brother Zhou's neck has grown two centimeters longer waiting for you."
Feng Wu: "...I left earlier because of something. Is your brother Zhou here?"
When the visitor heard that the girl had come all the way to see his brother Zhou, his eyes lit up even more. It was not because of any gossip, but because the God of Wealth had come to bring them wealth again.
"Here, here, Brother Zhou has been here these days. Hey, Brother Zhou, Brother Zhou, our sister is here!" The man shouted excitedly towards the closed door.
Feng Wu, who was sitting in the main hall, was stared at by four or five men, but her expression remained calm.
Brother Zhou coughed lightly, and the younger brother beside him immediately asked with great tact: "Sister, drink some water to moisten your throat. It's a rare occasion for you to come here. Let's go to the state-owned restaurant for dinner later."
"Yes, yes, we have done business several times, but I haven't treated you to a meal yet?" Brother Zhou agreed.
A few people who were completely unfamiliar with Feng Wu pulled him aside and chatted awkwardly for a long time, but in the end they didn't get to the point. Feng Wu drank half a glass of water, put the glass down, and took the initiative to speak, "I have the food, it depends on how much you can eat."
Several people didn't think the girl was joking. Judging from the previous pleasant cooperation, the girl was not the kind of person who boasted.
After pondering for a while, Brother Zhou felt that the money he had prepared was far from enough, but he could only afford this much. Thinking of a big brother he had met recently, that person's influence was not comparable to his small business.
"Sister, I'll give you an answer tonight. I have to make some preparations."
If Brother Zhou could finish it all by himself, she wouldn't bother looking for anyone else. "Okay, I'll come over again tonight. Oh, I have another batch of meat this time, do you want it?"
When he heard that there was meat, Brother Zhou couldn't help swallowing. Even if he could eat meat once or twice a month, what man doesn't like to eat meat!
"Yes! The supply of meat in the supply and marketing cooperative is very low right now, and you may not be able to buy it even if you have a ticket. Alas, in these famine years, where is there any extra food to feed the livestock?"
