Chapter 105 Going to the market
He Lai threw five and caught a comb and a toothbrush. After getting a feel for it, He Lai started aiming for the thermos.
I saw the circles flying to the farthest point, each time just a little bit short, and the five were gone in no time.
"Boss, ten more." He Lai took out another 2000 yuan.
The boss immediately took the money, gave the ring, and gave the contents of the box to Wu Juan.
Wu Juan wanted to ask He Lai to stop playing, but she didn't want to spoil her son's fun.
At that moment, He Lai flew out in four circles and hit the thermos directly, with the last one stopping abruptly at the mouth of the bottle.
"I got it right, I got it right." He Lai said happily.
"This one doesn't count, it doesn't count, you can only throw them away one by one." The boss was anxious. This thermos bottle is worth a lot of money!
"Why not let it go? Boss, do you want to shirk your responsibility? Why didn't you say you couldn't throw more?" He Lai was sure that it wouldn't be let go.
The boss saw that something was wrong and thought that the signboard might fall here. There seemed to be a lot of people standing behind He Lai, looking at him. The ring tossers were also looking at him.
I could only obediently hand the thermos to He Lai.
"My little brother gives it to you. You all have seen it. I gave it to you. But you all can only put it one by one in the future. If you put more in the future, it will not count. Everyone remember this."
The boss quickly added, thinking of writing it down later.
He Lai gave the thermos to Wu Juan, and Yu Shui couldn't put the thermos on himself, so he returned the remaining five to He Lai.
He Lai still aimed at the remaining thermos.
Every time I was just a little short, it was painful. He Lai was very angry and continued to do it. He had to believe it.
Finally I won this time. The boss looked constipated. He lost two and probably lost money today.
He Lai took the thermos and gave the remaining three circles to Xiaohu.
Wu Juan also smiled as she looked at the two thermoses. Her eldest son was amazing.
Several people continued to move forward.
Soon I saw that both sides of the street in front of me were full of food vendors. "Luosheng - melon seeds - mint candy -", "Momo - rolls - sugar-coated corners -", "hot hairy taro just out of the pot -" all kinds of hawking sounds came one after another.
He Lai quickly took Wu Juan and others to take a look.
"Boss, give me 5 pounds each of peanuts, melon seeds, and mints." He Lai immediately took out the money.
When the boss heard this, he quickly went to the scale, packed the goods in bags and took out the money. He was so fast, as if he was afraid that the woman behind the child would object.
"Brother Xiaohu, please help me get my things."
"No problem, just put them all in my backpack." Xiao Huzi also carried a backpack like Wu Juan.
Several people continued to move forward.
"Let's have the spicy pepper soup full of gluten..." "Let's have some porridge with Sanzi..."
It’s so enjoyable to listen to these words. The long tones are so pleasant!
He Lai and others sat down at the mutton soup stall.
"Boss, three bowls of mutton soup and two bowls of meatball soup."
"I'm so tired. I'll be there soon."
I saw the boss wearing a long apron standing behind the soup pot, cutting the meat, serving the food in bowls, mixing the soup and adding seasonings, all in one go.
Soon five bowls of soup were served and He Lai quickly paid.
Little Hu stole a glance at Wu Juan. It seemed that Wu Juan was also used to her son's extravagant spending.
Wu Juan thought that she had earned two thermos bottles today, which were worth 60,000 or 70,000 yuan, so she could spend some of it.
They all started drinking very quickly, and it must be said that the content was really rich!
"beat……"
He Lai covered his mouth and subconsciously wanted to pack a portion, but fortunately he didn't say it out loud.
After drinking, He Lai and others walked forward and saw Grandpa He and others listening to storytelling.
He Lai went up and gently pulled Grandpa He. When the old man saw that it was He Lai, he quickly pulled him over.
"You bought a lot of things, why did you buy two thermos?" Grandpa He saw the things in the backpack.
"Grandpa, this was caught by Xiao Laizi in a trap!" Xiao Huzi said excitedly.
"Really? Grandpa's little Lai is really amazing. Come and listen to grandpa for a while. He tells a very interesting story." Grandpa He protected He Lai with both hands and started listening again.
Others also looked at the things in Wu Juan and Xiao Hu's baskets. They were amazed. They couldn't compare. They spent money lavishly. They only bought some necessities.
Soon, "If you want to know what happens next, please listen to the following explanation." After the storyteller finished speaking, many of the listeners left in a hurry because they all knew that they would have to pay.
He Lai also laughed when he saw it. This storyteller must be very unreasonable, trying to make money from the hard-earned money of the rural people.
Look at Mr. He. The old man probably gave 200 just to save his face, which was the limit.
Everyone left the storytelling place and went to the front to buy some cloth.
Then we discussed it and prepared to go back.
He Lai said that he had crowded, seen, listened, eaten, drank, and spent money, and the rally was over.
He Lai felt that this rural market was pretty good, except for the fear at the beginning.
This gathering was very pleasant, exciting and enjoyable. I will come back to visit next time I have the chance.
When they got home, Old Mrs. He also learned that He Lai had won two thermos bottles, and she was very happy.
Boil water and cook quickly.
He Lai and Yu Shui lay on the kang, exhausted. They had walked too much. He Lai thought that he had been slacking off recently and needed to exercise more.
It takes more than half an hour to walk to the town. If the big tiger hadn't carried a lot of rain, it would have been very difficult.
"Yushui, do you still want to go shopping?"
"Come on, brother, can't you buy a bicycle?" Yu Shui asked.
He Lai was stunned by the rain. "Ah...yes, if you don't buy it now, it will be too late. You need a ticket!"
I'm planning to buy one.
"Brother Lai, why are you silent? Did Yu Shui say something wrong?"
Yu Shui didn't know what was wrong when she saw He Lai stopped talking.
"Ah...Oh, gosh, I was lost in thought just now." He Lai came back to his senses.
"Listen to Yushui, let's go buy a bicycle." He Lai said to Yushui.
……
Dinner table
"Well, Grandpa, why don't we buy a bicycle!"
He Lai put down his bowl and chopsticks and proposed to his grandfather with anticipation.
"Why buy that thing? You can't eat it, and you can't drink it." Mr. He refused bluntly. He didn't want to buy it because it was too expensive.
After hearing his grandfather's answer, He Lai was not discouraged, but patiently explained.
"With a bicycle, Brother Dahu and his friends can get to town faster! It's too far to walk there. Brother Dahu's body can't handle carrying fish every time.
And if I come back for the New Year, wouldn’t it be convenient to go to town with a bicycle?”
After hearing what his grandson said, Mr. He couldn't help but fall into deep thought. He thought, Dahu and his friends have to go to town every few days. Carrying such heavy fish is really too far to walk. If they have a bicycle, it will be much more convenient.
Thinking of this, Mr. He nodded and agreed with He Lai's idea.
"Okay, I'll go discuss it with your uncle." After saying that, Mr. He didn't even have time to eat, and hurried out to discuss the matter with his two sons.
Not long after, Mr. He got the money and decided to buy a bicycle tomorrow.
He Lai saw that it was so simple, but in fact, the eldest uncle's family and the second uncle's family were also tired. It was indeed a bit tiring to carry the fish to the town.
I made a lot of money selling fish, and if I split the profits among several families, I could afford to buy a bicycle.
Anyway, you buy it for your own use, and it will be much easier for your younger generations to find wives with a bicycle.
The next day, early in the morning, Grandpa He took his second uncle He Xin and Da Hu to the town after fishing.
