After Chu Heng came out of the street office in low spirits, he simply collected himself and rode to the department store.
Although it is now approaching evening and the sun is not as fierce as it was at noon, the temperature is still very hot, almost the same as yesterday, windless and stuffy.
I don’t know when there will be heavy rain to extinguish this annoying heat.
Chu Heng regrets it now. If he had known that this summer would be like this, he should have stored more ice cubes in the warehouse!
He was walking at a fast speed, and when he was about to reach the department store, he suddenly met a big brother selling popsicles.
The old man was standing lazily in the shade on the street. There was a wheelbarrow next to him. He was holding a wooden block wrapped in a popsicle wrapper and banging on the wheel of the car, which was stuffed with cotton.
The big wooden box was covered with insulation materials, and he shouted with a broken voice: "Popsicles, beat the fire! Creamy ones, red bean ones, three points, five points, popsicles, beat the fire! Don't come to me for diarrhea!"
"
These are not hawkers, they are serious state-owned factory workers with high wages!
Chu Heng's eyes lit up when he saw it. If he didn't save ice cubes, it would be the same thing to save some popsicles. Isn't it just spending more money? What's wrong with that?
He rushed up and stopped in front of the old man selling popsicles. He asked with a smile: "Brother, how much do you have left?"
I went out to sell goods on such a hot day. My brother was a little angry. His eyelids drooped and he yelled at me: "Do you care how much is left? Can you still cover it all?"
Chu Heng had long been accustomed to their homely service attitude, and he didn't get angry with him. He still smiled and said to him: "Hey, you really said what you said, I intend to make things right for you."
The old man was stunned when he heard this and didn't believe it: "Are you kidding me?"
There are very few people with refrigerators these days, so why buy so many popsicles? Just melt them and drink sugar water!
"Who are you kidding? I bought it from the department store in front of me for people in my workplace."
Chu Heng started telling lies. As he spoke, he took out 20 yuan from his body and slapped it on the box. Finally, he pretended to feel in the bag, took a new cloth bag from the warehouse and handed it over, smiling: "
If you're tired, give me some points and put them all on. When you're done, you can go back early and save yourself the trouble of being out there."
"Hey, it's so fresh. I've been selling popsicles for so many years, but this is the first time I've seen you like this. Okay, wait a minute, I'll put it on for you." Seeing the cash, the old man had no reason not to believe it, so he hurriedly brought it.
Bu Dai counted it to him.
This old man was very nimble with his hands and feet. In half a cigarette, he put the remaining half of the box of popsicles into a cloth bag. He handed the bag over with a smile and said: "It's a total of thirteen dollars and sixty-two cents. Your vote
It’s too big and I can’t find it. Do you have any change on hand? If you don’t show me your work ID, I can go to your workplace to get it tomorrow.”
"Yes, yes, yes." Chu Heng didn't dare to let him go to the department store. He quickly took out his pocket and took out a stack of zero bills. He counted out three yuan and sixty-two cents and handed it to him. At the same time, he also took back ten yuan and finally carried it.
The bag filled with popsicles rushed out.
"I have to leave quickly. It will turn into ice water in a while. I'll see you later!"
"Hey, I met a buyer today." The popsicle seller who got off work early happily took out a cigarette and lit a cigarette, pushed it into the car and walked home. He was going to drink some to relieve his fatigue in the evening, and then he looked for the half-hidden guy in the south of the city.
The door is loosened and the muscles and bones are loosened.
Chu Heng ran into a nearby alley not long after walking, threw most of the bag of popsicles into the warehouse, and then went to the department store.
When he saw Guo Kai, the guy was selling goods.
It is worth mentioning that this grandson's temper has been much better since he got married. He is polite to everyone and has completely lost the attitude of the flat-headed brother he once had.
Alas, this marriage is a school for men.
Chu Heng saw that Guo Kai was busy, so he didn't bother him. He strolled to the food department for a walk. When he came back, he had a bag of yellow beer in his hand. This stuff was expensive at only 30 cents.
For one bottle, he bought ten bottles, which cost a total of three yuan. Most people really couldn't afford it.
At this time, Guo Kai's side was already very busy. The customers had already picked out their shoes and were issuing invoices and paying.
When Chu Heng saw this, he walked over with his bag in hand and said in respect: "Why are you still alive? Your wife hasn't given you medicine recently?"
"Fuck you! Your wife is throwing sticks outside!"
Not to be outdone, Guo Kai retorted and threw the written receipt and money along the wire above his head to the cashier. He glanced at the jingling bag in Chu Heng's hand and asked curiously: "I bought it."
WTF?"
"The beer I just bought." Chu Heng carefully put the bag on the ground, then took out the letter of introduction and the food book from the bag and put them on the counter. He said with a smile: "Open your eyes and see what this is.
"
Guo Kai took it over and took a look at it. He saw a blank letter of introduction and the food book of a man named Zhang Quan. He didn't understand what he was doing and asked doubtfully: "What do you mean?"
"What the hell, just a stick." Chu Heng suddenly rolled his eyes, pointed at two things and said: "This is for you. Just take the food book and use it. Don't worry about the rest. For the introduction letter, you can fill in Ge Erni's information later.
Come on, take it to the steel rolling mill tomorrow to find Director Li, and we will arrange a job for her then."
After hearing this, Guo Kai's eyes widened and his breathing became rapid. He looked at the thing in his hand in disbelief and said excitedly: "You...you are not confused by me, are you?"
"What do you think?" Chu Heng looked at him funny: "Let me tell you, I have been very tired for this matter, how can you thank me?"
"This..." Guo Kai was so excited that he couldn't control himself. He looked at the food book and then the letter of introduction. After a while, he took Chu Heng and said, "I don't know how to thank you. Come to my place tonight and let me know."
My wife will cook more dishes, and she must drink them well."
"Stop it, you don't drink. Why would I want to eat with you? Besides, my wife is going to make me noodles with soybean paste today. It tastes like mother's oil and soy sauce. You're going to make me delicacies from all over the world."
I won’t even change it!” Chu Heng broke away from his paw, picked up the beer and left.
After walking a few steps, he suddenly remembered his little housekeeper, and ran back quickly, telling Guo Kai: "Hey, if my wife asks about this beer, just say it was from you."
Guo Kai, who is also married, immediately understood. He patted his chest vigorously and promised: "If you have something you can't hide from me in the future, just push it on me. I will take full responsibility for it!"
"Enough brother!"
Chu Heng suddenly felt solemn. This promise is as heavy as a mountain!
The little help I did for him was nothing compared to this matter!
