Chapter 251 Passion
Fan Chun and his group took a bus back to Shanyang County, and then rode bicycles back to Wangou Village.
The group of five people riding bicycles became the most beautiful scenery along the way.
Bicycles are common in the area, but in Shanyang County, except for workers, many people do not have bicycles, let alone places like communes and brigades.
Several people riding bicycles looked as proud as if they were the tractor drivers of the brigade.
As soon as he returned to the village, a group of people surrounded him, took his old father's bicycle, and each one of them smiled happier than the other.
In the past, I had to go to Zhao Laowu or Liu Qi’s house to borrow it, but now I have it at home.
"What's going on?"
Li Dequan looked at Fan Chun and his group and asked.
At this time, everyone in the village gathered into a circle. Although there were fewer wolves now, it was still dangerous to travel at night, so the television became the most important issue that the villagers wanted to solve.
Li Dequan was definitely not asking them about their bicycles, but whether Zhao Yi could sell them a TV.
When the village wanted to buy a television, Zhao Laoshi said that televisions were only sold to workers.
Li Dequan asked Zhao Laoshi whether Zhao Yan was a worker, and whether your son-in-law Chen Yan was a worker, and where did the TV come from? It couldn't be stolen.
Everyone then became interested and prepared to pool their money to buy one.
"Zhao Yi agreed to sell us a TV set for only 595 yuan. We can exchange it for pork. Of course, we can also pay for it. But we need to solve the problem of electricity ourselves."
Fan Chun said with a smile.
"So what are you waiting for? Use these sticks as electric poles and plant them all the way to the commune and tie an electric line back, otherwise these little guys in the village won't be able to stay here."
Li Dequan pointed to the wood on the open space in the team headquarters and said.
After hearing this, everyone immediately started working. They went to the team headquarters to get tools and began to plant electric poles towards the village entrance.
The female worker stayed at the team headquarters waiting for Wu Lan to calculate how much money a family would need to pay to buy a TV. In fact, each of the more than 200 families only needed a few dollars.
"Old carpenter, you are here with your son to make chairs, the kind of chairs used in the area, the kind that can seat ten people in a row.
There are many people in our village, so one TV is definitely not enough. We have to buy three. Ask whoever you need help with. ”
Li Dequan thought for a while and said.
Li Dequan knew that televisions were liked not only by children but adults as well, so the wires pulled this time would be enough to supply the televisions. The team now had three empty rooms, which would be used as projection rooms in the village.
After finishing work, every household can come and watch TV, which is not only convenient but also promotes communication among everyone.
Everyone in Wangou Village was working busily, waiting to buy a TV once the work was done.
At this time, everyone's enthusiasm for television was very high.
Li Dequan's family has no shortage of televisions to watch. Whenever the two elders want to watch TV, they can go to their son's house in the area. Li Chao had already asked Li Dequan to ask the commune for a replacement, but Li Dequan is not the kind of person who can sit idle.
There were not many acquaintances there when I got there, and there was nothing to do all day except visiting the park and the square. It would be better to be in Wangou Village where I could participate in all kinds of events, big and small, and there were many acquaintances in the village who were free, and we could drink and chat for hours together.
area.
Zhao Yi was looking at his apprentice Xu Chao at this time.
"Master, can you be my gift-tender?"
Xu Chao looked at Zhao Yi a little embarrassedly and asked.
"Do you think I am someone who can speak in four words?"
Zhao Yi looked at Xu Chao helplessly and asked.
“No.”
Xu Chao responded with a smile.
"You are not the one who invites me. Go wherever you want and don't delay my business."
Zhao Yi rolled his eyes at his silly disciple and waved his hand.
Mr. Yali needs to say a lot of words, and people with thin skin are too embarrassed to say them at all, not to mention that Zhao Yi doesn't know what he needs to say. Although he has seen such a scene, it doesn't mean that he can say it in front of so many people.
"Master's wife, look at my master."
Xu Chao looked at Zhang Jing and complained.
"Don't say your master is thin-skinned. Even if he is thick-skinned, he has never presided over such an event. You are here to embarrass your master sincerely, right?"
Zhang Jing smiled.
After putting down the wedding invitation, Xu Chao rode away on his bicycle embarrassedly.
Zhang Jing and Zhao Yi looked at each other helplessly.
"You little bastard, you have new problems every day, and you come up with new ideas every now and then. You are as naughty as your son."
Zhang Jing looked at Zhao Yi and smiled.
"I don't bother with him."
Zhao Yi smiled and shook his head. This bastard thought he was omnipotent, as if he could do everything.
"How much this time?"
Zhang Jing looked at Zhao Yi and asked.
The wedding of one's own apprentice is definitely different from that of outsiders. In addition, Xu Chao sends quite a few gifts every year during the holidays, so it would not do to give too little.
"Ten bucks."
Zhao Yi said without even thinking.
"I think so."
Zhang Jing nodded.
Zhao Yi and Zhang Jing were chatting at this time.
"Xiao Yi."
At this time, Zhang Fusheng came over.
"dad."
Zhang Jing and Zhao Yi stood up and greeted them.
"I heard that Wangou Village wants to buy a TV set. Is this true?"
Zhang Fusheng looked at Zhao Yi and asked.
"have no idea."
Zhao Yi shook his head. Fan Chun did ask how much the TV cost, but he didn't say he would definitely buy it. Besides, there was no electricity in the village, and there was no place to put it even if he bought it.
"I saw that the wooden sticks from Wangou Village were planted near the commune. When I asked around, I learned that they were going to bring electric wires back to the village. The village wanted to buy a TV set, so the people in my village asked me to ask where they could buy the TV set.
As soon as we started chatting, he said that he was from your place and that people in the village also wanted to buy one. ”
Zhang Fusheng looked at Zhao Yi and said.
Zhangjia Village is similar to Wangou Village. Both are villages with side businesses. Now the lives of the two villages are similar, and they are the same distance from the commune. Since Wangou Village wants to buy a TV, they certainly don't want to fall behind.
What's more, if it is a group purchase, each family cannot afford much.
We also knew that it was Zhang Fusheng's son-in-law who was selling the TV. He had acquaintances there and the price should be the same, so the task naturally fell on Zhang Fusheng.
"If there is electricity, I can buy one."
Zhao Yi nodded.
"Wangou Village is not just buying one, they're buying three. There are many children in the village, not to mention adults who want to watch it, so all the vacant houses in the team headquarters have to be used as projection rooms."
Zhang Fusheng explained.
After hearing this, Zhao Yi realized that the current Wangou Village was not the Wangou Village in his memory.
"Zhangjia Village also wants to buy three?"
Zhao Yi then asked again.
"Our village has less population than Wangou Village, so two units will be enough."
Zhang Fusheng waved his hand.
"You can come and buy it whenever you want. No ticket is needed. The price is the same as in Wangou Village."
Zhao Yi smiled.
Zhang Jing made a cup of malted milk and brought over a can of food.
"Dad, eat something first."
Zhang Jing handed over the thing in her hand.
"You two are really wasteful. Eating two boiled eggs in sugar water is a big deal. This must cost a lot of money."
Zhang Fusheng said while looking at the can.
Every month, Zhang Jing would ask Zhang Xiang to bring some back home. Zhang Fusheng also inquired about the prices of canned food. Every time he received the food, he was reluctant to eat it and gave it to his grandchildren in the county town.
