After leaving the factory gate, Lin Yuhang subconsciously walked to the nearby bus stop, and soon the bus came.

He got on the bus, took out his monthly ticket and greeted the conductor. After doing this, he realized how he got on this bus?

Maybe it’s because Lin Yuhang usually runs back and forth between Factory No. 3 and Factory No. 8. This bus is heading towards Factory No. 8. When he saw the bus coming at the station just now, Lin Yuhang subconsciously got on it without even thinking about it.

It was only after I opened it that I came back to my senses.

He smiled wryly and shook his head. He was really a little stupid. Such a thing would actually happen.

But let's take it easy. Now that he's in the car, Lin Yuhang can't jump out of the window again, right? Anyway, he's just going out for a walk to relax, so he can just take this car for a stroll.

It was not the rush hour for commuting, and the bus was relatively empty. There was an empty seat next to the banana chair in the middle of the bus, and Lin Yuhang walked straight over and sat down.

Today's buses are very different from the buses of later generations. Most of them are "dragon" buses. Speaking of this type of bus, it is much longer than the buses of later generations. It is divided into two sections, front and rear, with the middle section

The turntable is connected by a hinge, and there is a bench on the left and right. These two benches look a bit like bananas, so people call these two chairs "banana chairs".

There are gaps on both sides and behind the banana chair, where the front and rear carriages are connected. It's fine when the bus goes straight, but once the bus turns, the gaps will become very large due to the operation of the turntable and hinges.

The big one can jump directly from the gap to the bottom of the car.

From this point of view, such buses are not very safe while driving. This is why Julong buses were gradually replaced by new buses in the mid-to-late 1990s. But nowadays, such buses

It is a common feature of all cities, and the dragon bus can carry more passengers. In this era of inconvenient transportation, only this kind of bus can withstand people's daily needs.

After sitting for two stops, Lin Yuhang's heart gradually calmed down. He looked out of the left front window at the scenery passing by. The cool breeze blowing from the gap behind him hit his back sometimes and sometimes not.

For a moment, Lin Yuhang thought of his career in the army. Lin Yuhang, who had just joined the army as a new recruit, and his comrades left Yanjing by train. Their train carriage was not an ordinary train carriage, it was the kind that was loaded with cargo.

car.

There were no tables and chairs in the carriage. Everyone was sitting on the floor. The door of the carriage was also half-open for ventilation. The train roared away, and gusts of wind blew from the crack of the half-open door. Lin Yuhang was as excited as everyone else.

The upcoming military camp is full of curiosity and yearning.

At that time, Lin Yuhang was lucky. He was closer to the carriage. He could see the scenery passing by the crack in the door. Just like now, he looked outside and felt the cool breeze coming from the pavement. But now the wind came from

Just behind.

So many years have passed, and the new soldier of that year became a combat hero after experiencing the flames of war, and became a cadre of a state-owned enterprise because of his injuries. However, Lin Yuhang, who took off his military uniform, still missed the military camp and those things in his heart.

A comrade who stays with you day and night.

Especially those fallen comrades on the battlefield, Lin Yuhang still remembers them and their tall figures who fought until the last moment.

But the strange thing is that their appearance has gradually become blurred as time goes by. Even if Lin Yuhang tries hard to recall, the appearances carved deep in his heart always feel a little different from what he remembers. This makes Lin Yuhang's feelings about

Very dissatisfied with myself.

Lin Yuhang once felt that he would always remember their appearance, even to the last moment of his life. But now he only remembers their names, but their appearance is blurred, and the blurred appearance seems to contain all of them.

Lin Yuhang didn't like this feeling because people's faces blended together, because it was not what he wanted, but he had no choice but to accept it.

"Perhaps, I need to find time to see them, and I will remember them when I see them..." Lin Yuhang said silently to himself. After finishing the work at hand, and when the company is on track, he must invite

After a long vacation, I went back to the place where my comrades rested, to see them, light a cigarette for them, offer them a glass of wine, and talk to them.

His thoughts drifted into the distance, and Lin Yuhang was slightly in a trance. It wasn't until the bus arrived at another stop and the sound of the door opening on his left sounded that Lin Yuhang came back to his senses.

Several people came up to this station, including men and women, old and young. Among them, an old man and a child who looked to be only five or six years old came from the middle door.

The old man was quite old and was wearing a pair of washed-out work clothes that turned white. The words "Safety Production" were printed on the left chest of the work clothes. There was also a line of small words below, which should be the name of the unit. However, because the work clothes were a bit old and had been washed many times,

Because of this, this line of text has been blurred and cannot be seen clearly.

The child is a little boy, wearing corduroy clothes and trousers, and a hand-knitted yellow woolen hat on his head. The child looks lively and cute, and should be in the middle or upper class of a kindergarten.

Because no one got off at this stop, and more people got on than at the previous two stops, there were no empty seats on the bus. Seeing the elderly and children getting on the bus, Lin Yuhang took the initiative to stand up and waved them to sit in his seat.

"Thank you, comrade." The old man smiled and thanked Lin Yuhang, and the little boy also said crisply: "Thank you, uncle."

The seating space of the banana chair is relatively large. The old man and the child happened to sit in the empty seat given by Lin Yuhang. As soon as they sat down, the car started.

Lin Yuhang smiled and said you're welcome, stood aside and stretched out his hand to hold the fixed pole, and continued to look out the window. At this time, the little boy and the old man were talking.

"Grandpa, when are you going to buy me lollipops? I told you last time, how many days has it been?" the little boy raised his head and said to the old man.

"Haha, buy, buy, buy. Grandpa promised to buy it, but I haven't seen these lollipops sold in food stores these days. Why don't grandpa buy you a stirrup candy later? Candy?

Sugar is also delicious, and you can even stir it up."

"No! I want a lollipop!" The little boy said angrily: "Grandpa didn't mean what he said. He clearly said it was a lollipop, but now it has become a stir-fry candy. I want a lollipop, not a stir-fry one."

Candy, the kind of lollipop that the chubby boy in our class ate last time was red in color, round in size, and had a stick at the back. He licked it and ate it. It was so sweet!"

"But grandpa can't buy it. I didn't see it for sale." The old man was a little confused.

"I know where it is! I know!" The little boy hurriedly raised his hand and said: "Little Fatty told me that his dad bought it at the Friendship Store. There are many flavors, including peach, pear, and apple.

By the way, there is also orange flavor. The plastic candy wrappers on the outside are so beautiful and colorful! Grandpa, please buy one for me. I promise you that as long as you buy it for me, I... I will listen to you in everything.

!”

The old man nodded repeatedly with a smile and agreed. But while the little boy cheered happily, the old man's brows frowned slightly.

The old man at the Friendship Store knew that this was not a place for ordinary people to go. The foreign exchange coupons spent there were not ordinary banknotes. How could he, a retired worker, get the foreign exchange coupons?

But since I promised my grandson, this matter must be done. Besides, a lollipop shouldn't be expensive. Asking someone to help bring one will be considered as granting the child's wish.

Lin Yuhang didn't pay much attention to what the old man and the child said at first, but after listening for a while, Lin Yuhang was a little dazed. Suddenly, an idea flashed in his head, and he seemed to have thought of something, and he was lost in thought for a moment.

After regaining consciousness, the car had arrived at the stop again. Lin Yuhang hurriedly raised his head and looked outside, and then got out of the car in three steps and two steps. After getting off the car, Lin Yuhang identified the direction below without saying a word.

I walked towards the opposite side, caught another bus at the opposite bus stop, and got off the bus near the Friendship Store half an hour later.

When he arrived near the Friendship Store, before he could find the door and open it, a young man wearing microphones came up to him and asked secretly in a low voice: "Brother, do you have foreign exchange? Do you want to exchange foreign exchange?"

No need to guess, this young man is commonly known as a scalper, also called a piling model in Shanghai, and a "trailing man" in Yanjing.

When it comes to the title of "traitor", it is really vivid. To transfer things (tickets) from one hand to another person's hand, isn't doing such a job a "traitor"?

Lin Yuhang had never been in contact with the boss before. This was the first time he met the boss, so he subconsciously looked at him curiously.

"Brother, do you want to exchange or exchange?" the boss asked again.

"I don't have any foreign exchange." Lin Yuhang laughed.

"Then it's time to exchange. What kind of exchange do you want? U.S. dollars? Marks? Pounds? Japanese yen? Or foreign exchange certificates? I have whatever you want to exchange for. I can tell you the price. If you want to exchange more, we can further discuss it." The young man said.

The old man lowered his voice and said to Lin Yuhang.

"How do you exchange foreign exchange certificates?" Lin Yuhang asked after thinking for a while.

"1.3:1, what's the price? How much do you want to exchange for?"

"So high?" Lin Yuhang was very surprised, 1.3:1, which means that one yuan of foreign exchange coupons would be exchanged for one yuan and thirty cents of RMB. This ratio was really beyond his expectation.

"Brother, how can this be considered high? It rose to 1.35:1 not long ago. It has fallen a bit in the past few days, but you see, the price will go back up after New Year's Day. There is no way. Who wouldn't want to during the New Year?

Want to buy some good things for your family? Don’t you have to rely on foreign exchange coupons to buy good things at the Friendship Store? It won’t work if the price doesn’t rise.”

Lin Yuhang was speechless. This was the first time he had come into contact with this. He really didn’t know what was going on here. But looking at the expression on this young man’s face, it didn’t look like he was trying to fool him. According to this man, he didn’t do this in a day or two, even if he didn’t do it in a day or two.

There are also rules when it comes to being a dealer. If there are no rules in this business and you raise prices randomly, you won't have to do it anymore.

Lin Yuhang touched his pocket and thought for a moment, then said to the dealer: "To tell you the truth, I came here first to check out the market today, so I didn't bring much money with me. So, do me a favor.

If you can help me with this, I will exchange 50 yuan of foreign exchange coupons today. Let’s make friends. I will come to you directly next time I come over.”

The young businessman was stunned, and first asked Lin Yuhang what kind of help he wanted. Lin Yuhang stretched out his hand and pointed toward the Friendship Store: "It's not a big deal. You can find a way to take me inside to have a look. I'll do it first for you today."

Exchange this for 50, and I’ll see you next time I come back.”

Although 50 yuan in foreign exchange coupons is not too much, the ratio of foreign exchange coupons purchased by a bad guy is around 1.2, and there are some as low as 1.1, which means that for one yuan, he can earn at least about 10 cents. 50 yuan is a profit of 5 yuan, and this is at least

Yes, if you are lucky and meet a foreigner who doesn't know anything when exchanging foreign exchange certificates, and you can exchange the foreign exchange certificates at a one-to-one ratio, the profit will be even higher.

After thinking about it in his mind, the young businessman immediately agreed. Then Lin Yuhang took out the money and counted the bills and exchanged them for 50 yuan of foreign exchange coupons in his hand. After the exchange was completed, the young businessman winked at Lin Yuhang and said with a smile.

He headed towards the Friendship Store.

When he arrived at the door, he asked Lin Yuhang to wait. The young man went straight over and handed the person at the door a cigarette, said hello and said a few words, and then pointed in the direction of Lin Yuhang. The other person hesitated for a moment.
