Rebirth: the fiery age of Mori Gong's children

Chapter 79
The gazes of Zhou Mingyuan and his wife, following their daughter's finger, looked at Sheng Xiping who was coming across.

The young man in front of him was quite tall, with thick eyebrows, big eyes and regular facial features.

Although he was wearing a set of half-worn blue work clothes, there was no dirt, and he was quite a neat and tidy person.

The young man has a tall and straight figure, short hair, and bright eyes. He is quite attractive at first glance, and he makes a good first impression.

Zhou Mingyuan and his wife looked at it, nodded slightly, and said nothing else, it was quite pleasing to the eye at first glance.

"Hello, Uncle Zhou and Aunt Zhou." Sheng Xiping came forward with a smile and greeted Zhou Mingyuan and his wife.

"Hey, hey, good, good, all good.

Xiao Sheng, I have to thank you for reminding you that there is no more firewood at home, so I brought a carload of firewood all the way. "

Wang Chunxiu looked at the young man in front of him and thought it was okay.

She looks good, but the key is to handle things well. She has only just gotten married, so she can always think about the Zhou family.

Wang Chunxiu had seen the big cart of firewood, and it was estimated to be at least ten feet long.

It would cost a lot of money to buy it elsewhere.

The young man has a heart, how can the couple be ungrateful?

At this time, Chen Weiguo and others also came to say hello, calling Zhou Mingyuan and his wife Uncle and Aunt.

Zhou Mingyuan and his wife were so happy that they beamed.

"Oh, look, there is no firewood in this house, and so many of you have to be called to help.

I'm going home for lunch today, my aunt will make some delicious treats for you. "

Chen Weiguo and the others were not polite, and responded directly.

There is still a big cart of firewood waiting over there, and it is getting late, how can I stand here and chat all the time?
Quickly unload and load the car, and transport it home, otherwise it will be a problem for anyone to look at it here.

So, everyone exchanged a few simple greetings, and then went to unload and load the car.

Zhou Mingyuan and his wife enlisted the help of three or four apprentices from the machine repair shop, together with Sheng Xiping and others, so they just unloaded one side and loaded the other end on the car.

Chen Weiguo and the others knew it well, they knew that they were loading firewood for Sheng Xiping's wife's house, and this big cart was fully loaded, with no empty space at all.

The Great Liberation that Zhou Mingyuan borrowed from Donggang Forest Farm was only half loaded in a truck.

"Uncle Zhou, how about this, you two go back with the car first, take care of the house, we will wait here.

When the car comes back in a while, we will pack the next car and send it home. "

Sheng Xiping saw that the big car was already full, so he told Zhou Mingyuan to ask the couple to take the car back first.

This side has not been unloaded yet, so I can't leave people. He just leads people to take care of it here.

"Oh, that's okay, that's okay, let's lead the car back first.

Xiao Sheng, Xiao Gao, take a break first, don't be too busy. "

Zhou Mingyuan took a look and saw that this car was loaded with a lot of firewood. The firewood was even with the uprights of the car. No matter how high it was, it would be dangerous.

So, Zhou Mingyuan hurriedly nodded and called everyone to rest.

"Come on, here's soda, bread and so on.

You came down very early in the morning, and you probably haven't eaten well, so let's take a bite first.

After a while we are done with work, go home for dinner. "

The bread was specially ordered by Wang Chunxiu from Qiliang Store yesterday, and it was taken this morning as soon as it was made.

A box of soda was brought from the store and brought over by the car.

There are so many people helping with the work, and the Zhou family is not that stingy, so they must treat them well.

At this time, bread and soda are good things, and most people can't eat them.

"Thank you uncle, thank you aunt."

Everyone was busy loading the car, and they were indeed tired and thirsty. The big guys were not polite, and each went to get a bottle of soda to drink.

Here, Zhou Mingyuan, father and son and several apprentices climbed onto the roof of the car and sat, while Wang Chunxiu, Zhou Qinglan, and Tang Fengying, three women, squeezed into the cab of the car.

They went back to Zhou's house to unload the car first, and Zhou Mingyuan would bring someone over later.

The car drove away, and Sheng Xiping and the others found a place to sit down and rest.

After a while, Sheng Xiping stood up, "Brothers, sit down first, I'll go to the purchasing station over there."

He remembered that the second and third child asked him to help sell copper, and it happened to be free at the moment, so hurry up and sell it.

Otherwise, if those things are dead and dead, he can't carry them back to Zhou's house, right?

"Xiping, what are you doing at the buying station?"

Gao Haining and the others found it strange that the Gastrodia elata and other medicinal materials they harvested in the mountains could be sold directly to the purchase station attached to the forest farm store, and no one would carry things all the way down to sell.

Sheng Xiping went to the Mori Railway Buying Station, what did he want to sell?
"Don't mention it, the second and third child in our family insist on selling the copper belts they saved."

Sheng Xiping smiled helplessly, he agreed, and the copper was brought, so he had to go and have a look.

If you can sell it, just sell it, don't care how much you exchange it back, as long as the two give up.

"Oops, I remembered, we have copper in our house too.

It was last year and this year, the school let my younger brother knock them off from the scrap iron they picked up.

Let's go, I'll go with you, and inquire about the price along the way, and when I come down again, I'll also bring down my copper and sell it. "

When Wang Jianshe heard this, he stood up.

Others actually have copper in their homes, but there is still half a carload of firewood unloaded here, so they can't all leave and leave unattended.

So the others didn't move. Anyway, how much is it selling for? Sheng Xiping will find out when he comes back later.

Sheng Xiping dug out two packs of scrap copper from his back basket, which weighed about six or seven catties, and walked out of the forest railway station with them. Sure enough, there was a buying station not far from the roadside.

The two entered the purchase station, and there were not many people inside. The two salesmen stood behind the counter, ignoring them with cold faces.

"Comrade, I would like to ask, do you accept scrap copper here? How much is it per catty?"

Sheng Xiping stepped forward and asked politely.

The person at the counter didn't even raise his head, "Come on, look at the blackboard over there for the price."

There was some impatience in that voice.

When Wang Jianshe saw this, he became angry. Isn't this person's attitude too arrogant?

He was just about to go over to argue with someone, but Sheng Xiping grabbed him.

"Don't make trouble, this is not a store in our forest farm, everyone is familiar with it.

We don't know each other well, so we just sold our stuff and left. "

Normally, service with a smile is not popular these days, let alone what the customer is God.

He is an employee of a public unit and has an iron rice bowl.

Even if you don't get a piece of copper, you still get a salary. It's normal to ignore people, so don't worry about it.

Wang Jianshe was stopped by Sheng Xiping, but at least he didn't lose his temper. The two turned their heads and looked at the wall next to them.

There is a blackboard hanging on the wall over there, with yellow paint drawn horizontally and vertically on the grid, and the catalog and price of the purchase station are written in the grid.

Sheng Xiping took a closer look, good guy, brass costs 12 yuan a catty, and copper costs [-] yuan a catty.

To be honest, when Sheng Xiping saw the price, he really took a deep breath.

He knew that copper was valuable, but it was still too expensive for such a price.

But it's understandable when you think about it. Now that construction is going on everywhere, copper is still in short supply, and the price is naturally high.
