Chapter 224 Target Old Furniture(1/2)
"Hey! Little brother, why are you back?" The third sister quickly came over and asked Fang Yuan.
She thought that Fangyuan would have to wait at least until the afternoon to see her second sister off, but now she is back before noon.
"Brother Fangyuan."
Before Fangyuan could answer Third Sister's words, the little girl ran over and hugged Fangyuan's other arm.
"I came back after sending the second sister to school. Seeing that there was no one at home, I thought you were here." Fang Yuan said to the third sister.
"Oh! It was Wen Li who called me."
"Yeah!" Fang Yuan nodded.
Needless to say, Aunt Qin probably asked Wen Li to call Third Sister over for dinner after hearing from the little girl that Third Sister was the only one at home today.
Fangyuan was holding something in his hand, and he couldn't rub the little girl's head. He could only say to the little girl: "Let go first and let Brother Fangyuan put the things down."
"Yeah!" The little girl quickly let go of her hand.
"Grandpa and grandma, are you two still strong?" Fangyuan said to the two old people while putting down the things.
"Very well, I just haven't seen you for a while." Mr. Jin said with a smile.
"I've been quite busy these days, and I don't have time to see you two."
"It's okay, it's okay, come and sit."
Fangyuan was not polite and sat down next to the old man.
"Fang Yuan, come and drink some water." Aunt Qin came out of the house with two glasses of water.
"Thank you, Aunt Qin." Fangyuan quickly took the cup and said.
"This kid, what are you thanking?" After saying that, he handed another cup to the little fat man and said, "Come to Sanbao, drink some water."
"Thank you, aunt."
Seeing the pile of things on the ground, Aunt Qin asked: "Why did you two bring so many things here?"
"Let's have lunch today." Fang Yuan said with a smile.
"This child can't come to dinner without bringing something?"
"It's possible, but you see, both of us are carnivores. It won't taste good without meat." Fang Yuan pointed at the little fat man and said to herself.
Of course he was joking. In this era, no matter what, it is good to be full. Carnivores, even carnivores, can only eat grass.
"This child." Aunt Qin shook her head.
Even so, she still put those things away and went to clean them. Needless to say, she would eat these for lunch.
It's just that Fangyuan brought a lot, not to mention one meal, it would be impossible to finish it in two days.
At noon, the little girl’s family has improved their food, and it’s a big change. I’ve probably never had such a rich meal.
It's a pity that Director Jin is not here, and I don't know why the police station is so busy.
After finishing the meal, Fangyuan left with the third sister and the little fat man, and of course, the little girl followed.
This girl doesn't care about that much. It can be said that as long as Fang Yuan is, she will be there.
The weather at the end of August was still very hot, which is why Fangyuan ran home after eating. He came home to blow on the fan.
Fangyuan moved the recliner from the west room to the living room, got on the recliner, and said to the little fat man: "Turn on the fan."
"Okay boss."
Fangyuan did not buy this recliner, nor did he ask others to make it. It was a tumbler recliner that he made himself.
Let’s put it this way! After getting on it, just click when your feet are off the ground, and the recliner will keep shaking.
It can be said that it is as comfortable as it is comfortable. The third sister has been grinding on this recliner for a long time, but it is a pity that Fangyuan never gave it to her.
She can only go there and enjoy it when Fangyuan is not around.
Fangyuan also wanted to make another one, but there was no material left, and it was hard to find the material, otherwise it would have been hanging around.
"Boss, when will you let me lie on it and enjoy it?" The little fat man turned on the fan and walked to Fangyuan and said.
"Do you want to lie down?"
"Yeah!"
"Don't even think about it. With your size, I'm afraid you'll get crushed!"
"Hahaha!"
"Hahaha!"
When the third sister and the little girl heard what Fangyuan said, they both laughed.
This makes the little fat man very embarrassed. He has no choice but to make him too fat!
I don’t know what’s going on with this kid. Ordinarily, in this era when people don’t have enough to eat, there shouldn’t be such fat people, but this kid is an exception.
And he is getting fatter and fatter. According to his fat method, it is estimated that it is impossible for him to eat all the food in his family.
But he is so fat. He is less than 1.3 meters tall and weighs at least 130 kilograms.
What is the concept of one hundred and thirty pounds? This is the weight of an adult who is not very fat.
But how much flesh actually grew on the body of one of his children? It’s terrifying to think about it. Anyway, Fangyuan definitely doesn’t want this kind of flesh.
"Okay, let's go make a pot of tea." Fangyuan said to the little fat man.
"Okay boss, but boss, what kind of tea do you want to drink?"
"Green tea! It would be more comfortable to drink some green tea today."
"Okay, just wait, I'll go take a dip right now." After the little fat man said that, he went to pick up the thermos bottle.
"Brother, is Second Sister's school big?" Third Sister walked up to Fangyuan and asked.
"Yeah! It's quite big, almost twice as big as our school."
"Ah! So big?"
In fact, the Woolen Mill Primary School is quite large because there are many employees in the Woolen Mill, and there are very few children of Woolen Mill employees who do not go to school.
Let’s put it this way! There are more students in a Woolen Mill Primary School than in Qinghe Commune. Think about the concept.
You have to know how many people there are in the wool spinning factory. Even the retired employees and their families are only over 30,000.
And the entire Qinghe Commune, all people added together, has at least 100,000 people.
It is conceivable how many people do not go to school. There is no way. It is difficult for a working family to provide for several children to go to school, let alone farmers who earn work points.
"It's not bad, mainly because there are many people living on campus, so there are more houses."
Hearing what Fangyuan said, the third sister nodded and said, "That's right, our school doesn't need to live on campus."
For the next period of time, Fangyuan lived a very comfortable life, going to the pigeon market every day to buy some chickens and rabbits.
It’s the same fifty chickens and fifty rabbits every day, but the price is not as high as before.
For example, rabbits used to cost twenty yuan each, but now they can only be sold for five yuan. This is because of the lack of food.
Otherwise, you can't even sell one for five yuan, and you don't know if Fangyuan is shooting yourself in the foot.
After all, this is all because of himself. If he hadn't brought back so much pork and made all the butcher shops in the imperial capital start supplying pork again, how could it be so low?
But Fangyuan has no regrets, because the rabbits and chickens in the space are limited after all. Even if a rabbit is sold for 20 yuan, how much can it be sold for?
The most important thing is that you can’t sell much in one day!
A rabbit weighs seven to eight pounds and costs five yuan, which is cheaper than coarse and fine grains.
It's just that this thing can't be compared with grain. A rabbit only weighs more than five kilograms of meat.
It may not even be enough to feed a family, but the coarse and fine grains bought for five yuan are enough to feed the family for two days.
This is when there are no food stamps, which is why they sell for five yuan each instead of selling for twenty yuan each before, and they sell so fast.
To put it bluntly, the people who come to him to buy chickens and rabbits are still rich people, and those people don’t care how much you sell them for.
It will be 1962 soon. In 1962, especially after the summer harvest, the ration will increase.
Not to mention rabbits and chickens, even food cannot be sold at a high price.
Now Fangyuan sells chickens and rabbits not only at the pigeon market outside Deshengmen, but also at four pigeon markets.
The weather is getting colder, and winter is about to enter. It will only be about two months until 1962.
Although Fangyuan goes out every day during this period, she has been thinking about what to do next.
To be honest, selling rabbits and chickens every day is not a long-term solution at all. If this continues, something will happen sooner or later.
And he is not short of money now, so Fangyuan decided not to sell it for the time being.
Fangyuan is a restless person. If he doesn’t sell chickens and rabbits anymore, he should do something else! So Fangyuan decided to focus on old furniture.
To be honest, what Fangyuan wants to buy most is a house, but the sale and purchase of houses is now prohibited.
Let’s put it this way! Even if you spend money to buy a house, as long as the person who sells the house sues you, not only will you not get the house, but you will also lose your money, and you will even have to go to jail.
