A good time for farming through the ages

Chapter 59 [059] Neighbor uncle

What this person said is not unreasonable. Food prices are soaring now. A dime or two is expensive, but at least there is still some food in it. It has been a long time since the child ate millet porridge for a while before. Time has run out.

After thinking about it for a while, Zhuo Dajun bought corn buns for one yuan, two for ten cents, and twenty for one yuan, plus the two that the person said earlier, a total of 22. The hot corn buns were given in a cloth bag. He pretended to give it to him, smelling the delicious food, he swallowed a few times, but finally he was not willing to eat one.

Six yuan was spent and one yuan was spent, and there was still five yuan left. With the five yuan, he was about to walk home with his bamboo basket on his back when he was suddenly stopped by an old man.

"Oh, fellow townsman, comrade, weren't you the kind person who went to our family courtyard that day?"

Zhuo Dajun was walking with his head down, when he suddenly heard someone greet him, and when he looked up, the other party enthusiastically pulled his arm, as if he was afraid that he would leave.

He frowned slightly, apparently unable to remember who this person was, the old man hurriedly said.

"Did you forget? You didn't save Lao Zhao and his wife in Wenbo Road's Family Court? You brought your little girl with you at that time!"

Zhuo Dajun patted his head suddenly: "Aha, so it's you, uncle. What a coincidence, I ran into you here."

"Yeah, yeah, what a coincidence, you don't know, Lao Zhao and his wife have been looking for you all the time, you told me the name of your village the other day, but I'm old, my memory is not good, so I was stunned I didn’t remember, by the way, which village are you from?”

"Master, are Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Zhao all right?"

"Oh, your aunt has been discharged from the hospital, and now the old man has been taken to live in the city by his son, and he was still thinking about you as a benefactor before he left!"

Zhuo Dajun waved his hand, "It's nothing more than a little effort, sir, you are being polite, so what, I have to hurry, so I want to leave, let's talk!"

Unexpectedly, the neighbor uncle held his arm and refused to let him go: "No, you must leave a name or address, or I will not be able to explain it."

"Oh man, it's really not that exaggerated. I'm just passing by. Anyone who sees me will stretch their hands. Don't talk about how great I am. Okay, it's getting late, I really have to go back and get it for my daughter. Wotou is eating, goodbye!"

Zhuo Dajun was so strong that he pulled off the old man's arm violently, and then left without looking back, making the old man very angry.

"You're stubborn, this is a good thing, why don't you take it to heart at all!"

It just so happened that this scene was seen by the buyer just now, but the buyer was still a relative of the uncle's family, so the ins and outs of the matter became clear after asking three times and not asking twice.

"Uncle, there is another matter. Oh, that's a coincidence. I know where this man lives. It's in Ximu Village below us. His name is Zhuo Dajun, and he's a carpenter. No, he just fished some freshwater fish. Our restaurant sells it!"

Zhuo Dajun of Ximu Village?The neighbor uncle carefully wrote down these two important points, and then said to the buyer.

"Come on, get your aunt a bowl of braised pork to take away. She just likes your braised pork. No, we have a visitor today and asked me to come here to buy it."

"Okay, uncle, just wait, I'll serve it to you right away."

"Well, here, this is one yuan and eighty cents, our relatives belong to relatives, what should be done."

This price is definitely not available in normal times, which is also the reason for the price increase during the famine year. A piece of buckwheat was sold at a high price of [-] yuan. How can this be affordable by ordinary people?Even these retired cadres only have occasional visitors at home, so they are willing to eat once, how can they be willing to eat it at ordinary times!
