Chapter 46: Scrap Recycling Station
early morning.
As Zhao Yi walked out of the room, he met Zhao Laowu.
"Brother Yi, does your family still want me to help raise the pigs for a day?"
Zhao Laowu looked at Zhao Yi and asked somewhat embarrassedly.
"You kid want to eat my cakes, right?"
Zhao Yi smiled and immediately understood what Zhao Laowu was planning.
"It's just that my little nephew wants to eat some. Don't worry, I will definitely give him more pig grass than last time."
Zhao Laowu scratched his head and smiled.
"No, but you can sell me your wild boar meat. I'll pay 40 cents a pound."
Zhao Yi smiled.
"Brother Yi, don't be ridiculous. That's more than 100 kilograms of pork for more than 40 yuan."
Zhao Laowu looked at Zhao Yi and said.
"I'm not kidding. Just send it to me. I'll give you some cake tickets and you can go to the commune supply and marketing cooperative to buy them yourself."
Zhao Yi said with a smile.
"OK."
Zhao Laowu immediately nodded with a smile. He originally thought that he had no hope of finding a wife this year. Although there was so much wild boar meat at home, he didn't dare to show it off, especially since the matchmaker had to give wild boar meat to the bride.
How can I explain to others that so much wild boar meat was taken out at once? If I don't hand over the prey, I will be in big trouble.
By the time my eldest brother gives me some money, it will take at least the end of the year to save enough.
I didn't expect that Zhao Yi would actually spend money to buy wild boar meat, which made Zhao Laowu extremely happy.
After a while, Zhao Laowu brought all the pork from his home over, and Zhao Yi also borrowed a scale from the brigade headquarters.
"A total of eighty kilograms of pork, thirty-two dollars."
Zhao Yi looked at Zhao Laowu and said.
"I trust Brother Yi to do things."
Zhao Laowu happily took the money and the family left him more than ten pounds of it, and gave the pig stomach and intestines to Zhao Yi for free.
"Why did the boss buy so much meat again?"
Zhang Jing asked in confusion when she saw Zhao Yi take the pork to the kitchen and start marinating it.
Can those people in the city eat a lot of meat every day?
I am very happy to be able to have a meal in the village after ten days.
"Leave it here for now. Su Zhiqing might buy some. We can send the rest to the city and sell them for money."
Zhao Yi said with a smile.
Unexpectedly, Su Hong walked into Zhao Yi's house at this time.
“What would I buy?”
Su Hong looked at Zhang Jing puzzledly and asked.
"My boss said you might buy some wild boar meat, and he's busy in the kitchen right now."
Zhang Jing pointed to the kitchen and said.
When Su Hong heard this, she immediately became interested. She walked into the kitchen, saw the wooden basin full of pork, and immediately picked up a piece of pork with a smile.
"This pork is good. How much is it per pound? I really want to buy some."
"Su Zhiqing, if you buy it, I'll only charge you fifty cents per pound."
Zhao Yi took over the conversation.
"Okay, that's very loyal. I'll buy ten kilograms."
Su Hong took out five dollars and handed it to Zhao Yi. She weighed ten pounds of meat and put it in Zhao Yi's kitchen, waiting to come and get it in the evening. It was too conspicuous to carry pork to the cowshed in broad daylight.
night.
Su Hong came to the cowshed.
Everyone in the bullpen now has a rosy complexion and looks particularly energetic.
When Su Hong first came, these people looked sickly and looked like they would be blown down by the wind.
“Where’s the pork?”
Grandpa Su looked at his granddaughter who brought a piece of pork, which looked like it weighed at least seven or eight kilograms. It would be a lie to say he was unhappy. Although Su Hong had no shortage of meat to eat since she came here more than two months ago, she still had never had a proper meal of pork.
It was all fish, loach, and shrimp. Each person could only taste two pieces of the braised pork from the state-owned restaurant.
Since Su Hong was his granddaughter, he must eat the food with his wife first, but they were all wanderers in the world, and Grandpa Su never ate alone.
"Comrade Zhao gave it to me at 50 cents a pound, so I bought 10 pounds and brought it here for everyone to try."
Su Hong said with a smile.
"Comrade Xiao Zhao is a good person and takes good care of us. But we have no way to repay him."
When Mr. Su heard this, he immediately sighed.
"Grandpa, there's a chance."
Su Hong saw her old man sighing and hurried to comfort him.
"I don't know when I'll have another chance. I can't even protect myself right now, and I need your care."
The old man looked a little depressed when he said this.
It was not yet dawn.
Zhao Yi rushed to the city carrying the pork.
When it was time for lunch, Zhao Yi rushed to the supply and marketing cooperative.
"Comrade Xiao Zhao, it's quite early today."
Deng Min saw Zhao Yi and said with a smile.
"I'm worried that you guys don't have enough meat, so I sent you the meat I just received."
Zhao Yi said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, the eyes of several salesmen in the supply and marketing cooperative suddenly lit up.
The meat Zhao Yi sent last time was almost finished during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and some was given out as gifts, which was praised by relatives. I didn’t expect that Zhao Yi was so capable that he sent meat again not long ago.
Even if your family doesn’t need it for the time being, you can buy some and give them to relatives, so you won’t lose money anyway.
A bowl of noodles was ordered for Zhao Yi, and everyone took the pork to the warehouse and divided it up. Each person got more than ten pounds out of the 70 pounds of pork.
"Xiao Yi, there's a radio here. Do you want it?"
Director Peng looked at Zhao Yi and said with a smile.
"Director, I don't have a ticket."
Zhao Yi shook his head.
"No ticket is needed. This seems to be a radio that broke down during transportation. If you sell it to a customer and take it home, you can't make any sound. If you want it, take it back as a decoration."
Director Peng looked at Zhao Yi and said with a smile.
Nowadays, many people cannot afford a three-turn and one-ring set, but they will get them all for the sake of face when getting married, even if they have to borrow them.
Just go back the next day after your wedding.
Such decorations are very face-saving when placed at home.
"Thank you, Director. I will only charge you for 60 kilograms of pork. I won't charge you for your 10 kilograms."
Zhao Yi said happily.
There is no need to criticize the quality of today's electronic products. It must be that one of the circuits fell off during transportation. As long as it is reconnected, the sound will be available. However, there are very few maintenance personnel nowadays, and there are basically no such personnel in units like supply and marketing cooperatives. There may be some in department stores in big cities.
Zhao Yi only collected the money for 60 kilograms of pork, a total of 47.4 yuan.
After getting the money and putting the radio in the backpack, Zhao Yi rushed to the scrap recycling station.
I walked around the recycling station twice, but didn't see anything that looked like antiques. Most of them were waste newspapers and second-hand furniture.
And the price of second-hand furniture is not low.
Zhao Yi didn't find the scrap motor he wanted, so he had to choose some picture books. The price of picture books at the scrap recycling station was one cent more expensive than the original price.
You can buy a pound for three cents.
Zhang Jing likes to read picture books, so Zhao Yi will naturally buy more.
After buying a lot of various picture books, Zhao Yi hurried home with the basket on his back.
I originally thought I could buy some things I needed at the recycling station, but I didn't expect to find anything.
