Chapter 4 4: Yan Bugui’s envy

Zhou Wenliang kicked his fat butt and scolded him with a smile: "Be honest, if you scare the fish away I will throw you into the river to feed the fish."

Fat Dan'er touched his butt and chuckled: "Aren't I happy? I can catch so many fish this time. I dare not even think about it. I can wake up laughing even in my dreams at night."

"You're so happy, look at how angry you are, go and pull some willow sticks over and use them for skewering fish later."

"Okay, I'll pull it..." Fatty slapped his butt and ran to the big willow tree in the farmland to gather branches.

The wicker is tough and suitable for stringing fish gills.

In the afternoon, the two of them were each carrying seven or eight big fish. To be honest, they couldn't carry them any more.

A bucket of river shrimps are all finger-long. There are so many river shrimps in the river, but no one eats them.

What a waste of natural resources!

The fat man is also wrapped in a fishing net, holding a fish in his left hand and a bucket in his right hand, which is very sexy.

As we approached Dongzhimen, we saw the railway station in front of the train station and the goods yard on the right. Inside, we could see busy workers unloading goods from the train, and those carrying large bags were sweating profusely.

He actually saw Yan Jiecheng inside!

The hard work is really the hard work of the Yan family.

The Dongzhimen Gate Tower is still there, next to the railway track. Several children were lying on the railway track listening to it, and a child with a runny nose nearby was cheering.

The children suddenly turned over and started running again, shouting:

"The train is coming, the train is coming..."

Seeing several children running and hiding in excitement, Zhou Wenliang burst into laughter.

Zhou Wenliang also has memories of lying on the rails and listening to the movement of the rails. If a train is coming, the rails will make a "clanging" sound. The louder the sound, the closer the train is.

There is also a jingle that goes, "When making braised noodles, just use garlic. There is a train station outside the city. The train station is connected on three sides, and there is a big clock inside. The big clock is ringing, and the train is coming, blocking both sides."

I don’t know who made it up, but it’s pretty easy to read.

This railway station has a long history. In 1909, after the Beijing-Zhangjiakou Railway was completed and opened to traffic, railway stations were built in Qianmen, Guang'anmen, Xizhimen and other places. It was first a passenger station, which made it easier for people to travel. Later, people reported that the urban area

The transportation of food, construction materials, and coal is still inconvenient.

In early 1914, Beiyang decided to build a city-circuit railway in order to solve the transportation problem of grain and coal in the capital.

With a total length of 12.6 kilometers, the train runs around Beijing.

From Xizhimen Station, follow the city wall along the wasteland between the city wall and the moat, pass through Deshengmen, Andingmen, Dongzhimen, and Chaoyangmen to Dongbianmen and connect with the Beijing-Shenyang Railway, then go west through Chongwenmen to Zhengyangmen Station.

Beijing’s coal and grain supply all depends on this railway around Beijing.

"Cough cough cough~" While Zhou Wenliang was deep in thought, a train roared past, blowing up a burst of dust and making him cough.

"Ahem, let's go, let's go." Zhou Wenliang couldn't hold his nose, so he rushed through the dust and passed Dongzhimen.

At this time, Dongzhimen was the city gate tower above, and the gate tower, arrow tower and barbican were being built and demolished for the city-circling railway.

Now there is still a city gate tower, but in 1969, all the city gate towers were demolished, so the name of the place was lost.

It is a pity that the nine city gates with a glorious history were demolished. Although it was for economic development, the cultural heritage was gone, and it was meaningless whether there would be traffic jams in the city or not.

Later, he regretted it and built a new city wall on the original site according to the design of the ancient city wall.

It is said that it is easy to dismantle but difficult to rebuild.

The reconstruction is also a fake full of modern craftsmanship, and the historical sedimentation cannot be repaired.

Besides, if the city gates are demolished, will Sijiucheng still be called Sijiucheng?

That jingle: "Inner Nine Outer Seven Emperors City Four, Nine Gates Eight o'clock and one o'clock."

What to say next?

Zhou Wenliang shook his head and secretly thought it was a pity.

After passing Dongzhimen, you will find Dongzhimen Inner Street, which will be Gugui Street in the future. Go straight to Beixinqiao.

At this time, the road was wide and straight, trolleybus No. 7 was running slowly on the street, and pedestrians were walking leisurely on the street.

Zhou Wenliang felt comfortable when he saw it, and he didn't expect that in the future, the roads would be crowded, high-rise buildings, traffic jams wherever he went, pedestrians with their heads down playing with their mobile phones, and walking in a hurry.

Just as Zhou Wenliang was looking at the various life scenes in the inner street, an old woman next to him came over and asked in a low voice: "Hey, kid, do you sell this fish?"

He and the fat man looked at each other, and Zhou Wenliang nodded: "Sell, how many do you want?"

"How much does one cost?"

Zhou Wenliang glanced around and whispered: "It depends on whether you want a big one or a small one. The big one weighs six pounds and the small one weighs a little more than one pound. I'll give you fifty cents for one pound."

Now pork is 7.80 cents per catty, fat meat is 90 cents, and meat stamps are required, and fish is 3 cents per pound, but they require stamps, but he doesn’t want them, and they give more.

Because I couldn't weigh it, I didn't bother to weigh it.

The old aunt saw that there were many people on the street and pointed to the street next to her. The two of them followed her to the wall on the side of the road.

The old aunt negotiated the price, Zhou Wenliang bargained with her, and the fat man watched from the side.

In the end, the old lady bought two pieces, one weighing four kilograms and one weighing more than one kilogram, and she paid 3 yuan for them.

Zhou Wenliang took the money and looked at it. No one saw it and he breathed a sigh of relief.

If you are caught, you are speculating. If you go in, you will be locked up for a few months.

"Here, half for each person." Zhou Wenliang gave the fat man a dollar and a half.

The fat man put down the bucket, wiped his hands on his body, and said coyly: "Liangzi, forget it, I don't want the money, these are all the fish you caught, just give me two fish to satisfy my greed.

"

Zhou Wenliang couldn't help laughing: "If you don't want it, don't say I won't give it to you. Then I won't give you the money. Don't regret it."

The fat man started chirping and acting coyly, like a big insect.

Zhou Wenliang was completely defeated by him and directly put the money in his hand, "Looking at your potential, leave quickly."

"Hehe." The fat man immediately became excited. He took the bucket and fish and chased Zhou Wenliang away. He said happily: "Liangzi, I think this will work. It's much better than sifting sand. Otherwise, we have to go fishing every day."

Go fish, selling fish is so profitable!"

"What do you think." Zhou Wenliang also needed money, but was too embarrassed to ask Zhou's mother for it, so he considered Fatty's suggestion.

"Ryoko, each of us will take home a big fish later, and we will go out to the pigeon market to sell the rest tonight. How do you feel?"

"Hey, that's good. You think fast! That's it. We've decided to take action tonight. Let's go explore the road first."

"Then it's settled..."

The two discussed the details, and when they got home, they hid the fish. There happened to be a large, half-broken water tank in an abandoned courtyard next to them, and the fish was placed in it.

When I returned home, I was carrying a big black fish weighing more than four kilograms.

This bucket of river shrimp was divided at my doorstep.

"Ryoko, where did you get such a big fish?"

Yan Bugui came over to watch them divide the river shrimps, staring at the two big fish, and his eyes almost fell out of envy.

Fatty is proud: "We caught him."

"How is that possible? You can catch me again and try again."

Yan Bugui said he didn't believe it. He was an expert in fishing and would do these business without capital whenever he had time. The Yan family wanted to improve their food, so they relied on fishing.
