Walking into the town, the scene in front of you is even more amazing!
I saw people selling things on both sides of the not very wide street. There were two long rows, and you couldn't see the sides at a glance.
There are many people selling things, and even more people buying things. At a glance, they are all densely packed with people.
It is not difficult to understand. Going to the market is the biggest event of the year. At this time, people from the surrounding villages will come.
In addition to the fact that everyone likes to join in the fun, more importantly, there are only a few days in a year that allow people to buy and sell certain things freely.
For ordinary people, trading livestock and poultry and purchasing daily necessities all depend on the market.
Especially as the New Year is approaching in the past few days, every household is buying new year's goods, and there are even more people going to the market.
So much so that the whole town was really crowded with people. You squeezed me, I squeezed you, and they rubbed each other's shoulders.
To be honest, Zhou Yang regretted bringing Li Youwei here after seeing this scene. What would happen if something went wrong?
But now that he's here, he can't spoil everyone's interest.
After all, except for Li Youwei, her parents and Bao'er were full of expectations for this market trip.
At that moment, Zhou Yang handed Baoer to his father, while he concentrated on protecting Li Youwei.
As for Fan Debiao, he has to guard against others.
The market in the town is really down-to-earth. Most people spread a torn oilcloth or a torn sack on the ground, which is considered a stall.
Only those selling more expensive items, such as clothes, cloth and various foods, would use wooden boards to set up a small stall.
As for the goods for sale, they are relatively simple. There are various handicrafts, such as baskets, baskets, home-made shoes, insoles, dog skin hats, etc. There are many kinds of things and a dazzling array.
But most of all are the various agricultural and sideline products grown by the family, such as radishes, potatoes, bean sprouts, tofu, as well as the chickens and ducks raised by the family and the various eggs they lay.
Although there are strict restrictions on the sale of agricultural and sideline products by ordinary people, if you want to sell them, you have to go to the supply and marketing cooperative for unified purchasing and marketing!
But everyone knows that the prices sold to supply and marketing cooperatives are kept very low. If they can still survive, most of them will save their things until the market.
Generally speaking, you can usually get more money here!
Li Youwei was in high spirits, and she was also familiar with the big markets in the town. She pulled Zhou Yang through various stalls.
When I encounter something I like, I will also ask about the price.
If you really like it, you can even negotiate the price with someone.
At this time, Zhou Yang would thoughtfully offer money when they were about to talk, while Fan Debiao would carry the things.
After a while, the hands of Fan Debiao and his mother Ye Lifang were full of various things, including small gadgets handmade by ordinary people and free-range chickens and ducks in the countryside.
The only advantage of a large collection like this is that the products have relatively high circulation, and most items are free of charge.
That’s right, no votes required!
After all, what you are selling is not an industrial product. It is unrealistic for you to ask for an industrial coupon when you sell a hand-woven bamboo basket!
But this is not absolute. For example, all kinds of fabrics will require tickets, but the ones sold in the market are either home-made homespun cloths, or defective products from textile factories in the city. Not to mention the cheap prices, cloth tickets It also requires very little.
Although there may be problems with the colors or other problems, for ordinary people, who cares?
Zhou Yang and others walked forward from the stall on the left, and then returned from the right after walking to the end.
When the circle was completed, it was already two hours later!
At this time, except for Li Youwei, everyone else's hands were full of things, including Bao'er.
The little girl is holding a candied haws of sugar in her left hand and a "Candy Boy" in her right hand. She also has a few pieces of sesame candy wrapped in brown paper in her pocket. She is very happy.
Seeing that it was almost noon, Zhou Yang immediately asked to go home!
Although Li Youwei still had some unfinished thoughts, she still nodded obediently.
In this way, Zhou Yang and others carried all kinds of messy things and headed outside the town to meet Liu Yunlong.
Then, the group of people drove the carriage back to Babaoliang Village!
...
When I got home, it was already past one in the afternoon.
After unloading the things on the car, Zhou Yang asked Fan Debiao to stay at home and slaughter the seven or eight chickens and ducks he bought, while he took Liu Yunlong to the livestock shed to return the car.
By the way, I will send the brown sugar and white sugar I bought back to my old house.
When I came to the old house, I smelled the smell of fried things as soon as I entered the yard. When I entered the door, I saw that the cabinets in the house were filled with twists and twists.
"When did you come back? Have you eaten?"
The father-in-law asked while squatting by the stove, smoking a dry pipe.
Zhou Yang immediately said: "I just came back and haven't eaten the food yet. I'll go back and cook it later!"
"What are you doing? This isn't some dry stuff that was blown up. Let's take some back to make up for it!"
As he spoke, the father-in-law put a few twists and leaves in an enamel basin for Zhou Yang, and then took a bowl and filled a large bowl of sugar-coated eggs.
Zhou Yang was not polite and immediately said with a smile: "It seems there is no need to make lunch!"
The mother-in-law said while busy: "Dry food cannot replace rice. It's okay to eat less, but eating too much will cause heartburn!"
"I know, mother!"
Then Zhou Yang said again: "Dad, I have to go to the livestock shed to return the car, so I'll leave first!"
"OK!"
Then Zhou Yang took the enamel basin and left the old house!
However, Zhou Yang had just returned from the livestock shed and before he entered the door, he saw Tan Shiqing standing in his yard with a worried look on his face.
Seeing Zhou Yang come in, Tan Shiqing immediately came over and said: "Captain Zhou, two cars of people came from the brigade headquarters, saying they are looking for you!"
Zhou Yang knew that there was a high probability that the people from the engineering team that Mr. Nie mentioned were here, and he immediately said: "Okay, you go back first, I will be there right away!"
"OK!"
After Tan Shiqing left, Zhou Yang brought the fried food he had brought back from his old house into the house, letting Li Youwei and her parents have a bite to eat at noon.
Then, he took Liu Yunlong to the brigade headquarters!
As for Fan Debiao, continue to stay at home and kill his chickens and ducks!
Arriving at the brigade headquarters, Zhou Yang saw two large trucks and two jeeps parked in the yard at a glance.
However, these cars carry ordinary license plates, not military license plates.
In addition, through the glass of the brigade office, Zhou Yang saw that there were many people standing inside. There were educated youth members who were watching TV, and there were also many unfamiliar faces that he had never seen before.
A large group of people filled up the seemingly large office!
After seeing Zhou Yang, a middle-aged man in his late thirties walked out of the office immediately and strode over to greet him.
After arriving in front of Zhou Yang, the other party first looked behind him and found that he was already some distance away from the office. He immediately lowered his voice and said:
"Hello, Comrade Zhou Yang, I am Qiao Weiguo, deputy commander-in-chief of the Engineering Department. I have come to report to you on the order of Mr. Nie."
"Hello, I'm Zhou Yang, welcome to Babaoliang Village!"
Qiao Weiguo said again: "According to Mr. Nie's explanation, we are here in the name of the College of Agriculture and Animal Husbandry this time. Everyone is wearing casual clothes, and the vehicles do not have military license plates. When the time comes, Comrade Zhou Yang will introduce us to the villagers. You spilled the beans!"
"Understood! Then let's go in and talk!"
"OK!"
Afterwards, Zhou Yang led Qiao Weiguo towards the brigade office!
