By the time everyone led the oxen and donkeys to the brigade headquarters, it was already dark.

After work, the members of the Chashan brigade heard the children talking about the buyers from the city. They rushed to the brigade headquarters one by one to find out what was going on. When they saw the materials piled up at the brigade door, they turned around and ran home.

They couldn't help but be excited. Usually, they would sell the little mountain goods they managed to save on their own backs.

In a mountainous area like Chashan Brigade, it is not easy to go to a market town. Not only is it a long journey over mountains and ridges, but even after traveling dozens of miles to go to the town, supply and marketing cooperatives often get reduced prices.

In order to get a few extra cents from the sales, the members often even travel dozens of kilometers to the county town to sell. The trip back and forth is really hard, and two pairs of straw sandals can be worn out.

The buyers who came to purchase not only gave them fair prices, but also saved them a lot of time. How could they not be enthusiastic?

They all ran home, took out the tea and mountain products produced in their own plots, and accumulated for several months, and ran to the brigade headquarters.

There was no reason for them not to run away, because the goods purchased by the previous buyers were limited and they would not accept them if they arrived late.

Li Wen was in pain and happiness at the same time. For no other reason, the members were so enthusiastic and all kinds of supplies were coming in endlessly.

When Li Wen came out of the breeding farm of the Chashan Brigade, he was about to go back home. Unexpectedly, the members who came out halfway surrounded him.

At first, Li Wen thought the community members in these mountainous areas were planning to rob him! The village cadre explained the misunderstanding.

Li Wen looked at the completely darkened sky, took out a few flashlights from his bag and asked the village cadres to shine them before continuing to purchase.

The Chashan Brigade is located deep in the mountains, so there is definitely no electricity. The only lighting facility in the village is kerosene lamps, which most homes do not have.

Many families go to the toilet in the dark at night, so there are a few fire pits in the elderly's room that can be used to light up the room at night.

The entire brigade has flashlights, that is, the brigade headquarters and the militia, and they are usually very valuable.

At this time, Li Wen's flashlight was like the warm sun in the cold winter, instantly making the members excited.

"This flashlight is too bright. Last time I went to the supply and marketing cooperative in town, my friend, a flashlight actually cost nine yuan. You need a ticket. If you don't have a ticket, they won't sell it." Someone in the crowd started talking.

own experience.

For a time, he attracted the envy of the surrounding members.

At this time, the little kids around the crowd kept jumping up to catch the little bugs in the spotlight, and they all had a great time playing.

Tonight's Chashan Brigade was as lively as the Chinese New Year.

I was busy until around eight o'clock in the evening and finished the shopping at noon. It wasn't that the members had a lot of stuff, the main thing was that it was too messy, and I had to constantly adjust and bargain with the members.

In the end, Li Wen got tired of the quarrel and offered a price. If the members were unwilling, he wouldn't accept it. The price he gave was originally very fair, and he couldn't be too kind.

The supplies for hundreds of households cost Li Wen more than 600 kilograms of food stamps, several flashlights, assorted daily necessities stamps, and of course more than 200 yuan.

The final result was a bumper harvest. Counting the materials collected by the brigade, there were 11 trucks of bare trucks, not counting the large livestock in the brigade.

As expected of the southern region, Li Wen also collected more than 20 old hens and a few old roosters that couldn't crow from the members' homes tonight.

"How about Li Buying stay in our brigade for one night, and I'll have someone help you transport it out tomorrow?" Secretary Liu said with a smile when he saw Li Wen looking at the supplies in front of him in a daze.

"It's better not to stay. I have made an appointment with someone. They will drive to pick me up on the side of the road at 10pm." Li Wen made up an excuse at random.

"It's already dark. There are so many things and it's hard to walk on the road!" Secretary Liu also had a headache looking at the supplies in front of him.

"Secretary Liu, I have replaced 8 flashlights for you today. Can you organize it so that everyone can help me pull the things to the road down the mountain?

I don’t want everyone’s help to be free, how about giving each person 50 cents?” Li Wen thought for a moment and said.

If Li Wen was alone, he could go back tomorrow. But he came with his unit. If he didn't go back at night, it would be difficult for Sun Lianying to explain.

When Secretary Liu heard that he would pay 50 cents for transporting goods, it would only cost less than ten miles of mountain road. This kind of money was earned.

I greeted the militia captain next to me and asked him to call the commune member who had changed his flashlight today.

After a while, more than twenty people came to the door of the brigade. Each car was assigned two people, one to pull it and one to light it.

The few remaining people led the oxen and donkeys.

"Set off!"

Secretary Liu was flashing a flashlight in front, and Li Wen followed behind on a tricycle.

It's actually not very dark at night. The moonlight shines on the ground at night, and it's actually quite bright.

Thinking that it was mostly downhill, everyone arrived at the bottom of the mountain in less than twenty minutes.

At the bottom of the mountain, Li Wen pulled Secretary Liu aside and whispered.

"Secretary Liu, this is twenty yuan. Part of it is the freight for everyone, and the rest is to thank you for your help today."

"Then thank you Li Buying!" Secretary Liu was not polite. After everyone divided it, there was only two yuan left.

"Li Purchasing, what should we do now? Shall we wait here?" After loading the money, Secretary Liu looked around and asked doubtfully.

"Let everyone unload everything! We will have dedicated people from our unit to load the goods in a while.

After unloading the goods, Secretary Liu, you can take everyone back together, I can just stay here and watch." Li Wen said with a smile.

"Is this okay?"

Secretary Liu looked at Li Wen doubtfully.

"No problem. You also know that the purchase price today is not low. I also have some selfish motives of my own." Li Wen finished his sentence.

They are all understanding people, and Secretary Liu knew Li Wen's plan instantly.

"Okay, I understand!"

"Everyone should unload the things and stack them neatly on the roadside. Li's purchasing unit will come to pick up the goods soon." Secretary Liu turned to the members and shouted.

"knew!"

In a short time, all kinds of wild products and tea were piled on the side of the road.

Li Wen took out a few packs of cigarettes from his pocket and asked Secretary Liu and the militia captain to disperse them.

"Li Purchasing, let's go back. Although wolves don't come down the mountain very often this season, you'd better be careful.

Oh! By the way, I hope you will continue to come to our tea mountain brigade to purchase next time."

Before leaving, Secretary Liu held Li Wen's hands tightly, hoping that Li Wenming would come to their brigade for purchasing next year.

Li Wen also nodded in agreement and asked the Chashan Brigade to save everything. He will come again in the second half of next year.

Li Wen used his mental energy to keep exploring, and after everyone in the Tea Mountain Brigade had gone away, he began to collect supplies on the ground.

After collecting all the supplies, Li Wen looked at his watch and saw that it was almost nine o'clock.

He looked in the right direction and ran back towards downtown Jinzhou.

The Chashan Brigade is nearly 30 kilometers away from Jinzhou City. This road is still not very easy to walk on mountain roads. The electric three-wheelers in the space are not as fast as Li Wen running!
