Uncle Feng returned to his house, his capital was lost, and he was afraid that it would be impossible to make a comeback in the future. He imagined that Widow Liu did not want to see him, and he felt very unhappy at this time, and even wanted to die.
Although he lost his capital, Uncle Feng was not discouraged. If he didn't succeed in his business and make a lot of money, what would be the point of being a human being? It was fine if he was not liked by others, but even Widow Liu stopped talking to him. Living like this in a deserted village was no fun at all.
No, we still have to do business. No, Uncle Feng got up before dawn, washed his face in a hurry, rushed out the door, took some money and sacks, and went up the mountain to buy pumpkins as before. , because in this remote place in a deserted village, the main income is only this pumpkin, and there is almost nothing else.
Over the next few days, Uncle Feng bought a lot of pumpkins and took a big boat to Lu Town. Soon after, he picked up the pumpkins on the street. Among the people coming and going, he couldn't stop shouting and wanted to take them away. All that money will be earned back. After that, when you have money, you can find an auspicious day, bring some gifts that are more valuable than your life, and go say something nice to Widow Liu, without fear that she will not agree to it.
The sky is very beautiful, clear and cloudless. Such a day is a good day for doing business and negotiating deals. Because the weather was very nice, there were a lot of people going out. Some girls were seen in the crowd. They had bright eyes and white teeth. Just one look at them would make them unforgettable for the rest of their lives.
But at this time, Uncle Feng didn't think about these things anymore. The only thing he cared about at this time was to get the business done. Otherwise, trying to win Widow Liu's favor and steal her heart was nothing more than a dream. . Such a large amount of pumpkins weighed at least two thousand kilograms. It was impossible to sell them all at once.
It's been a long time, but Uncle Feng still hasn't sold half of his pumpkins. By this time, all the other people's goods have been almost sold out. Only Uncle Feng's pumpkins are almost intact and not a single one has been sold. Lose. Uncle Feng kept shouting, and his mouth was almost bleeding. However, when people walked past him, they didn't look at him. Even if they did, they only glanced at him and showed no interest at all.
The place where Uncle Feng sells pumpkins is facing a shop. For some reason, when they see Uncle Feng, they immediately close the shop door. Other vendors also closed their doors one after another. Although the sun was still high and there were a lot of people, it was the prime time for doing business, but people still left in a hurry, as if something important had happened and they did not deal with it. One or two, this is inappropriate.
Uncle Feng was the only one left in the entire street in an instant. On the empty street, the wind was swimming gently, blowing a leaf from time to time, and the haggard leaves hanging on the trees also fluttered. They fell down and were scattered on the deserted streets, looking very sad.
The sun was hanging high in the sky, but the crowds of people on the street gradually dispersed. Some went to the pier, and some returned to their homes in cars. Of course, more people just hid in the shops. He refused to go out, as if he was afraid of something that would harm others. But Uncle Feng is not a harmful thing. Why do those people avoid me and refuse to see me, and even close their doors and stop doing business until dark?
Gradually, the whole town of Lu was almost empty. I was sitting alone by the pile of pumpkins. I didn’t know what to do. If I didn’t sell these pumpkins, if I lost money again, I might never be able to recover.
Uncle Feng has lost all his business, but he doesn't know what's wrong with him. Why are people so afraid of him? It was getting late, and it would be bad if we didn't go back now. Once the ship sailed, we couldn't transport these pumpkins back anyway.
There is no other way. Since there is no one left, we can only transport the goods back. Otherwise, what else can we do? However, Uncle Feng originally did not plan to transport these pumpkins back, because the freight was very expensive, and it would be impossible to make money after all this trouble.
By this time, Lu Zhen was in complete darkness, with no lights on, and it was difficult to distinguish east, west, north, and south. Such a large pile of pumpkins weighed two to three thousand kilograms. It was extremely difficult to transport these goods back alone. But there is no other way. It's not a problem if they don't transport it back. We can't take advantage of those who love to take advantage and let others pick it up in vain. This... thinking of this, Uncle Feng almost shed tears.
"If I had known there was no one in Lu Town, I wouldn't have come." Uncle Feng sighed sadly as he looked at the empty streets.
Under the faint moonlight, Uncle Feng carefully inspected his pumpkins. These are all good goods. How come no one wants them? At this moment, a gust of wind blew by, and among the flying dust, it was almost impossible to recognize the people on the other side.
At this time, several urban management officials appeared in front of Uncle Feng and started beating them randomly. It seemed that these damn pumpkins had polluted people's eyes and affected the appearance of the city. Otherwise, they would not have been beaten so badly. Uncle Feng's pumpkin rotted a lot in an instant, which made people feel very distressed, but they did not dare to say anything.
"Get out!" the city manager yelled.
"Okay." Uncle Feng didn't dare to say anything. Otherwise, he would probably die if he offended these urban management officials.
One of the urban management officials was holding a knife and kept hacking at Uncle Feng's pumpkins. It seemed that these things were all junk. Once people eat them, they will either have diarrhea or be poisoned. Otherwise, urban management would not be like this.
"Damn it, now that you're here, people won't dare to stay here and sell things." One of the urban management officials yelled.
"But I don't know why," said Uncle Feng. "I didn't scare them. They closed the store themselves. What does it have to do with me?"
"You're still talking too much!" Another strong urban management officer came up with a pole and chopped it directly on Uncle Feng's waist. At that place, there was an eczema that had not healed for many years. At this time, the impact of the pole was very severe. of pain.
Uncle Feng covered his waist, not daring to say anything at this time. Otherwise, he might incur more terrible revenge, and even kill himself. I had no choice but to pick up those pumpkins while covering my waist and put them into my own basket. The other pumpkins had to be hurriedly moved to some dark places, otherwise, the city management said, they would be smashed.
Facing such a group of wolf-like urban management officers alone, Uncle Feng was too busy. He only grabbed a basket of pumpkins, and the others were all destroyed and looked rotten. It was very uncomfortable to see. , Uncle Feng shook his head, and he didn’t want those pumpkins anymore.
Carrying a load of pumpkins, Uncle Feng limped along. There was really no one left in Lu Zhen at this time. If he had known it would be like this, he would not have come. Well, now, after spending so much money, this is really a huge loss.
Uncle Feng arrived at the pier soon after carrying a load of pumpkins. Fortunately, the ship had not sailed yet and he was ready to get on board. Otherwise, his waist would be broken and it would be impossible to carry the load of pumpkins back.
Seeing Uncle Feng carrying a load of pumpkins off the pier, the boat boss set off the boat. He clearly saw that Uncle Feng had appeared, but he didn't want to do his business, so he ordered the boat to sail. Uncle Feng stood in the open space with a sense of loss. At this moment, he saw the engine of the big ship. Soon after, it disappeared from his sight and hurried back to the deserted village.
Uncle Feng could only sit on the pier, feeling the cold wind blowing, not knowing what to do. If he walked back, it would be a long way, so he might not be able to do it. In addition, the sore on his waist was open and bleeding, so he couldn't take it back no matter what.
Just then, I saw the big ship coming back again. Ganqing realized it because of my conscience and felt that I shouldn't leave it alone. Otherwise, why would it have come back again? The big ship was moored at the pier, and a woman jumped out. It was Widow Liu. After hurriedly jumping ashore, she searched for a while on the pier. Soon after, she took a small and beautiful bag of her own. , got back on the ship.
Uncle Feng also wanted to get on the big ship. When he saw the big ship coming back, he quickly picked up the cargo and stood tremblingly at the bow, waiting to climb onto the big ship. But at this time, the boss of the boat climbed out of the cabin. Without even looking at Uncle Feng, he came over with a bamboo pole and pushed the boat open. Uncle Feng stood on the pier in a daze, watching the ship leave. For a moment, he really didn't know what was going on. Isn't there any money to give him?
Uncle Feng didn't want those pumpkins anymore and placed them on the street. He left at this time, crossed the river, and walked slowly forward along the ancient road in the deserted village. After walking for a while, I felt a little tired and felt very sleepy, so I sat down and lay on a clean stone, wanting to enjoy the moonlight.
At this moment, I saw that on the streets of Luzhen, people were coming and going in an instant, the lights were bright, and there was singing and dancing, which was very lively. At this moment, I thought of my load of pumpkins. If I sell them, I can recover some of the cost, right?
With this in mind, Uncle Feng crossed the river again. At this time, he saw that his pumpkin had become someone else's. The man was very tall. At a glance, he knew that he was definitely not an ordinary person. He originally wanted to ask for it. My own pumpkin, after thinking about it, I decided to forget it. The big man's pumpkins were all sold out in an instant, and even the broken basket containing the pumpkins was sold.
"This..." Uncle Feng was speechless for a moment, but he had no choice but to say nothing.
Uncle Feng touched the sore on his waist and found blood on his hand. He did not dare to stop at this time, so he swam across the river and along the ancient road, and soon returned to his house. As soon as he entered the house, it began to rain heavily, and the heavy rain was a bit strange. If it had rained earlier, he would not have gone to Lu Town. If he had not gone to Lu Town, he would not have suffered such a huge loss. .
After closing the door, Uncle Feng lay on the dilapidated bed, listening to the sound of rain outside, feeling confused. At this point in life, he could only resign himself to his fate. At this time, I heard Widow Liu's voice, and she seemed to be following someone as she walked through the door of her house in a hurry. Soon after, she disappeared somewhere.
