Although Huo Qingjin and Lu Zhiye are about the same age, Huo Qingjin has more experience.
There are many things that he needs to think about for a while before he can figure them out.
Lu Zhiye nodded slightly: "Indeed, those who can come to the platform to sell things have paid.
Everyone is in a hurry to sell their things, who wants to carry them back?
If we buy all his peaches, they'll just make people jealous.
Look at the people on the platform. Even though we only bought one basket, they all had bad intentions.
Buying too much will only be a disaster for the old man.
It is always like this. When you don’t have the ability, a large amount of money or food will be a disaster.”
Huo Qingjin nodded thoughtfully, and Huo Jianguo also realized that his actions just now were a bit impulsive.
A trace of bitterness flashed across his face. He was actually not as insightful as Lu Zhiye, who was several years younger than him.
Everything they did was seen by Lu Mingde.
Lu Mingde looked at Lu Zhiye with satisfaction. Some people may not understand this truth even in their entire lives.
This kid is just like Brother Lu. Although he is young, he has such a long-term vision.
The old man sold baskets of peaches, and wrinkles appeared on his dark face.
Looking at the girl's chapped lips next to him, he wiped the peach twice with the hem of his clothes and handed the bruised peach to the little girl.
"Eat quickly."
Huo Qingjin held his chin and watched the scene, and asked Lu Zhiye in confusion: "Look at this little girl, how come she seems to have never eaten a peach?
This is different from what I imagined. In Hong Kong, many restaurant owners have children who eat the food prepared by the chefs. "
There was a hint of compassion in Lu Zhiye's eyes: "The development situation here is different from that of Hong Kong.
In many remote mountainous areas, people can't even get enough food.
The peaches they grow are basically grown in their own yards.
I usually can’t bear to eat it, I just want to exchange it for money.
Only those that have been eaten by birds, are rotten, or have fallen to the ground will be peeled and given to family members to eat.”
Huo Qingjin looked at the little girl in astonishment. These scenes had a huge impact on him.
It made him feel an inexplicable feeling in his heart.
His eyes just met the little girl's, and the little girl saw him sitting together with Lu Zhiye and others.
He smiled gratefully at Huo Qingjin.
For a moment, Huo Qingjin seemed to have found the meaning of life.
He clenched his fingers, trying to catch the fleeting thoughts in his mind.
But he was interrupted by Huo Jianguo's words: "I see there are other snacks for sale on the platform.
Would you like to try some? I'll go down and buy some."
Huo Qingjin shook his head and grinned: "Second Uncle, can I go down with you?"
Huo Jianguo was a little embarrassed, but looking at his nephew's ingratiating smile, he swallowed back the words of rejection.
In another private room, Huo's mother and eldest sister-in-law of the Huo family were also looking outside curiously.
When seeing Huo Qingjin and Huo Jianguo getting off the train, Huo's eldest sister-in-law was a little anxious: "Mom, there are so many people coming and going on this platform, is it okay for Qingjin to get off?"
As she spoke, she stood up and tried to go out.
Mother Huo quickly pulled her back and said, "Ah Jing, sometimes you have to let go.
Besides, we all know Xiaojin's physical condition, so we should just follow her wishes while she is still alive."
Huo's mother's words made the eldest sister-in-law of the Huo family tremble and tears were about to burst out.
But when she saw the smile on her son's face, she forced herself to hold back her tears.
When I looked up again, Huo Qingjin had already walked up with several things wrapped in oil paper.
"Grandma, Mom, look what I bought on the platform?
I heard that these mutton sesame cakes are the only ones around here.
Look at the pastry, come and try it and see how it tastes."
He stuffed the oil paper bag into the hands of Huo's mother and Huo's eldest sister-in-law.
The eldest sister-in-law of the Huo family turned her back, wiped her tears with her sleeve, and said with a smile: "Then I have to taste it carefully.
This local specialty cannot be found in Hong Kong.”
Huo Qingjin looked excited and looked at the two elders with anticipation.
They also gave a thumbs up out of respect.
Huo Qingjin was overjoyed and hurriedly took the other oil paper bag and walked towards Lu Zhiye.
"Uncle Lu, my second uncle went to the other side to buy something. Come and try this mutton sesame cake.
I bought some more. The meals we had these two days were all sent by the old man over there.
It is only right that we should return the favor.
So I bought some more.”
Lu Zhiye opened the oil paper package and saw the chopped mutton inside. He exclaimed.
Putting so much meat in it is not cheap.
He picked up three oil-paper bags and walked towards Lu Mingde's box.
He didn't give it to Lu Mingde, but stuffed it into Li Da's hand at the door: "I bought it on the platform. The little guy feels a little guilty about eating your food all the time.
I brought it up specially for you. See if the old man can eat it. If not, just eat it.
Also, don’t bring us lunch boxes for the next few days.
Did you see those little foreigners?
We paid for the peaches, and in exchange, they paid for all our meals.
So I won’t bother you any more.”
Li Da didn't dare to agree to this rashly. Just as he was about to say that he would go and ask Lu Mingde, he saw Lu Zhiye turned around and left.
With no other options, he could only carry his things and walk into the box.
Lu Mingde heard clearly what had just happened and shook his head helplessly.
"Then do as he says. I can't finish this mutton biscuit. Break off a small half for me, and you can handle the rest."
He is old and can't eat too much greasy and meaty food, otherwise his stomach can't take it.
Li Da quickly and carefully broke off a small half of the pancake and handed it to Lu Mingde.
He didn't dare eat the remaining half.
On the other side, Charles saw Lu Zhiye and the others holding mutton biscuits and eating them with relish.
I couldn't help swallowing my saliva. These people were eating so happily, the food must have tasted good.
He touched the foreign currency in his hand and his face was full of worry.
I should have exchanged for some universal currency first.
At this moment, he saw the young translator girl also coming up with an oil-paper bag.
His eyes lit up, and he quickly waved to the girl: "Madam, can you exchange some universal coins with me?
Or buy me a few of this thing you have in your hand."
The translator girl was not one to suffer a loss. She rolled her eyes and asked to exchange foreign currency at an equal price.
Charles didn't care and nodded in agreement.
The little girl took out 50 yuan directly from her bag.
If you exchange 50 foreign currencies on the black market, the price can be 10 times higher.
This time I can make a fortune...
