The next day, the weather was fine.
After breakfast, Chen Wang began to pack up and prepare to go to town to sell goods.
In addition, he asked his wife and mother-in-law to think about what was missing at home and write a note so he could buy it.
I haven't been to town for a while, and now that I have a little one at home, the things I need to keep on hand have increased a lot.
For example, diapers, milk powder, clothes, toiletries, etc. for little ones.
"Awang, are you done? Let's go!!"
Chen Dazhuang's voice was heard from outside.
"Brother, Da Zhuang is here, hurry up!"
The little girl also started shouting loudly.
Chen Wang took the note from his wife and put it in his pocket. He picked up the medicine basket on the ground and put it on his back. He said, "Then I'll go."
Lin Xiuqin smiled and nodded.
When I walked out of the room, I saw that my mother-in-law had tied a sack to the back seat of the bicycle.
It was filled with bear meat.
We had quite a bit of mutton at home, as well as some wild boar meat we had hunted a few days ago, so we had no shortage of meat.
Only 20 to 30 kilograms of black bear meat were left, and the rest was put into this sack, which he took to the town to sell for money.
After saying hello to his mother-in-law, Chen Wang pushed his bicycle out the door.
"Brother, please buy me some stove fruit."
The little girl was playing with a few dogs in the yard. When she saw him come out, she hurriedly called out.
"knew!"
Chen Wang smiled and agreed.
The little girl doesn’t like to eat candy very much now, and she seldom buys various snacks from the store, but she still likes fruit.
When I pushed my bicycle out of the yard, I saw Chen Dazhuang already waiting outside.
"Here, put this in your medicine basket."
Chen Dazhuang was holding a small can, which contained half a bottle of dark brown granular substances.
That’s right, it’s the musk kernel formed by drying and crushing the hairy musk.
After putting the cans into the medicine basket, the two of them got on their bikes and set off.
"You're not going to take that bear meat to sell? Can you finish it?"
"I sent one hind leg to Alan's house, and the rest was pickled with salt, smoked and eaten slowly. It won't sell for much money."
"All right!"
Chen Wang turned his head and looked at the sack behind him and said nothing.
Originally he didn't want to sell it and suggested sending some meat to the Lin family, but his mother-in-law refused, saying that the distance was too far and she had to stay and take care of her for a month or so.
…
…
It was already past nine o'clock when the two arrived in town.
"Awang, how about I sell your bear meat for you, and you go to the purchasing station to sell it."
Chen Dazhuang made a suggestion.
"Why don't you come with me to the purchasing station? I think we can make a lot of money this time."
"It's okay. You and I don't believe it yet. I can't help much if I go. We might as well split up!"
"All right!"
So the two men stopped the car, and Chen Wang untied the sack on the back seat and tied it to his bicycle.
"Then I'll go to the purchasing station. I'll find you at the market when I'm done."
"Uh-huh."
“Let’s go!”
The two of them got on their bicycles again and headed off in different directions.
Soon, Chen Wang arrived at the purchasing station.
Park your bike and lock it with a chain.
Bicycles are considered valuable items these days and can be easily stolen.
Due to the recent crackdown, the town’s public security is much better than in previous years, but we still need to be careful.
There were a lot of people in the purchasing station. Chen Wang glanced around and soon his eyes fell on Xu Meijuan who was busy over there.
A middle-aged man was bargaining with her over some animal skins.
Chen Wang didn't go over directly. He watched the transaction over there being completed before he walked over.
"Xiao Xu!"
“Awang!!”
When Xu Meijuan looked up and saw Chen Wang, she was immediately surprised.
"Long time no see!"
Chen Wang smiled and said.
"It's been a while since we last met. Where have you been lately? Are you still selling crayfish?"
Xu Meijuan asked in surprise.
She knew that Chen Wang and his partner went to the city to sell crayfish.
In the past two months, Chen Wang has hardly come to the town, and naturally has not seen Xu Meijuan.
"It's no longer for sale. My wife is giving birth and I'm at home with her!"
Chen Wang replied with a smile.
"Oh, yeah, your wife gave birth? A son or a daughter?"
"He's a brat!"
"Congratulations!"
"Thanks!"
"Is your yard ready? I'll come over to play and see the little guy during my holidays."
"You're definitely welcome anytime!"
Chen Wang smiled and nodded.
"What treasure did you bring today?"
Xu Meijuan looked at the medicine basket he was carrying.
Chen Wang smiled and asked directly, "Is Master Wang here? Take me to see him. I haven't seen him for a long time."
"Good boy, it's really a treasure!"
Xu Meijuan looked surprised and waved her hand, saying, "Come on, I'll take you to the back to find Master Wang."
Chen Wang responded and followed.
Under the gazes from all around, the two went to the backyard.
"Who is that young man? Why was he taken to see Master Wang like this?"
A customer who was buying goods asked the female employee curiously.
People who often come here to sell goods know that Master Wang is the director of this purchasing station. Only when there are some valuable items and the employees are reluctant to give a price will they go to the back to ask Master Wang to come over.
"I only know that she used to come here often to sell things and had a good relationship with Sister Juan."
The female employee shrugged.
…
…
Master Wang was lying on a lounge chair, basking in the sun comfortably.
"Master Wang, you are so comfortable!"
