Chapter 93

Tang Bao took out a dozen big and red peaches from the basket and put them on the watermelon vine. They were as fresh as if they had just been picked from the tree, and everyone who saw them were amazed.

Soon a middle-aged woman in a white shirt and black trousers came over with a basket, picked up one and sniffed it, and said happily: "We rarely see such a big peach here, how do you sell it?"

"Sell by the piece, fifty cents a piece." Tang Bao opened his mouth loudly wearing a big straw hat, making it impossible for anyone to see her appearance clearly. I don't care about wine, I want to sell watches or cigarettes.

Hearing the price, many people are discouraged.

The uncle who sold the watermelon muttered in surprise: "My darling, this peach is worth as much as a watermelon for me, who is willing to buy it!"

A watermelon only costs eight cents a catty, and a smaller watermelon only weighs five or six catties.

But no matter how big a peach is, it is estimated that it only weighs half a catty.

However, on the black market, you can buy whatever you like, and those who have no money and who are reluctant to buy things on the black market will not come to the black market to buy things.

Middle-aged women also think it is expensive, but thinking that his son has been sick these days, he likes this peach, and said in a low voice: "Sister, can you make it cheaper, four cents each, I'll buy two."

"To open a business, I'll sell it to you for luck!" Tang Bao accepted a piece of [-] cents, a piece of [-] cents and a piece of [-] cents, thinking that no matter how small a mosquito is, it's still meat. Earned half and half.

Although the peaches in Haishi are cheap, most of the fruits are delicate, transportation is a big problem, and there is also a shelf life, which makes it rare to see such a big peach here.

After the middle-aged woman left, another young girl also bought three at the same price. Others just looked at them and were reluctant to buy them.

Sitting under the shade of a tree, Tang Bao watched fewer and fewer people buying and selling in the black market, and reckoned that he might return without success.

But now that she is here, she is not in a hurry to go home. It takes more than an hour to go back and forth on the road, which is really inconvenient. She thinks that she must get a bicycle as soon as possible, so that it will be convenient to get out.

Of course, buying a new one is too eye-catching, just buy a second-hand one.

It was almost eleven o'clock, and Tang Bao also got up to pack the peaches and was about to go home, but a man in his forties called to him: "Lesbians, wait, do you have any more peaches?"

A big man came to buy fruit, which made Tang Bao subconsciously vigilant, and said in a low voice, "Yes, do you want it?"

The man nodded quickly: "Yes, how much do you have?"

"There are about twenty more!" Tang Bao opened the back basket to let him see: "It's very fresh, even if you give it away, it will be very face-saving."

The man is of medium height, with a fair face but a little thin. When looking at people with small eyes, he smiles and looks very friendly: "Peaches are good, where did you get them? Can you still have them tomorrow?"

This is obviously because Tang Bao is young and wants to talk to her.

Regarding the origin of these things, Tang Bao already had a countermeasure. He glanced around, and then showed off with a bit of pride: "Someone in my family is on the train. This is from Haishi. Is it not fresh?" ? But my side is the small head, and the big head is shot in Dongshan City."

"It's no wonder. My name is Hu Anhua, and I live in the town. No, it should be said to be the north alley in the city. If you have this fruit next time, send it to me."

Hu Anhua felt that he would be able to fool the little girl by himself, and the smile on his face became more kind: "I've saved you a lot of trouble, right? You must give me a cheaper price, or you won't be able to sell it and it will break." , that’s nothing to lose!”

He knows a lot of people, and it can be said that he has a wide range of friends. The leaders above, the workers below, and the gangsters outside all know a lot. As long as he has good things in his hand, they will definitely be sold quickly. Everyone knows that there are many ways in their hands.

Tang Bao thought to himself: It is said that there is no profiteering without business, and his abacus is too sophisticated.

Therefore, she said very stubbornly: "No, if I get less money back, my parents will beat me, and besides, I have to work when I go back, so I can keep playing here if I sell things. It’s okay if you don’t drop it, then it’s my turn to eat.”

Hu Anhua looked at Tang Bao who was talking more and more excited, and felt that she wanted to turn the world upside down.

If his daughter is like her, he will starve her a few times before saying, if she doesn't get a house for three days, this girl who can't live a life will marry into whichever family she will marry, whichever family will be unlucky.

Tang Bao looked at him and asked straightforwardly: "Do you still want to buy peaches that are not cheap?"

"Buy it, I want it!" Hu Anhua was so angry with this stupid girl that he almost vomited blood, but he didn't want to lose her way, so he smiled stiffly: "I don't have enough money, follow me back to get it? Please have lunch."

He didn't believe it, and he had nothing to do with this little girl.

Tang Bao nodded and left with him.

In broad daylight, she was not afraid of him playing tricks, even if he wanted to do something, he would be hunting wild geese all day long, but let the geese peck at his eyes.

Although Hu Anhua likes to make money, he really doesn't have any shameful intentions. He also thinks that Tang Bao, a silly girl, is too vigilant. Instead, he reminds her to pay attention to safety or something.

He also rode a Phoenix bicycle, and said in a measured manner: "My daughter is older than you, just call me uncle, and I will take you away."

Sitting on the back rack of the car, Tang Bao listened to him riding the bike, and didn't forget to nag about safety issues all the way. On the contrary, he liked him a little more, and felt a little embarrassed that he had teased him earlier.

This is Tang Bao's first visit to North Hutong.

There are green brick and tile houses on both sides, and a narrow stone road in the middle. It is estimated that only three people can walk side by side, which looks very quiet. Unfortunately, the messy wires above the head spoil the beauty.

Hu Ninghua's driving skills are very good. He smiled and greeted acquaintances on the road. He stopped the car at the end and found that the wooden door was closed. He rang the bicycle bell and said, "Lily, open the door."

No one in there should answer.

Hu Anhua could only take out the key, open the door and go in, and greeted her: "In the future, if you have good things, just send them here. When I'm not around, it's rare."

Tang Bao found out that his location is very good. Although there are only two rooms in his house, it is also a detached courtyard. There is a street not far in front, and people can see people coming and going here.

Hu Anhua carefully put the peaches in the back basket into the bamboo basket, and there were 21 in total. He went inside and brought eight yuan and fifty cents, and said with a smile: "here, the money is collected, and the extra dime will be given to you. You go to buy white noodle steamed buns, next time you have to remember to send something good!"

The dime of feelings has sent me away, fortunately, I am still thinking about what delicious food he will take me for lunch!

This man is comparable to an iron rooster.

After Hu Anhua finished speaking, he saw that Tang Bao was still there, and looked at her suspiciously: "Why, can't you find the way out?"

After he finished speaking, he saw his son coming in from the outside, frowned and said, "Where did you and your sister go, and there is no one left at home."

Hu Xiaobing's appearance was printed in the same mold as his father, wearing big underpants and a white vest on top, and said with a playful smile: "Dad, my sister and I went to have lunch. Hungry soldiers, you can't be too stingy!"

Hu Anhua didn't admit that he was stingy, he frowned and pointed at Tang Bao: "Then you send her back."

"No, I also want to ask Uncle, how do you collect cigarettes and watches? My dad went to Haishi earlier and brought back a lot. If the price is right, then we can cooperate for a long time."

Tang Bao didn't want to be dismissed by him, and felt that if he accepted it, even if he made less money, it would be better than going to the black market every day to bask in the sun and wind.

Hu Anhua changed his face in an instant, and smiled at Tang Bao: "Hurry up and sit inside, it's a hot day, I'll pour you a glass of water!"

Hu Xiaobing hadn't noticed Tang Bao whose head was half covered by a big straw hat, and when he heard her words, he wanted to scoff at her, but because of her dusty appearance, she also wanted watches and cigarettes.

But he also knows who his father is.

His heart was also moved, he wanted to get a watch to please Aizhen, he really wanted to marry her, and the two of them had already been in secret, but when the two families agreed on the ceremony, they couldn't agree, now he heard It was rumored that Aizhen wanted to marry a fool.
