When Li Yang returned home, the second uncle came out with a bamboo basket, ready to go out to cut some water and grass for the old cattle, and when he saw Li Yang coming back empty-handed, he was stunned."
Yoko, didn't you go to repair the car, where's the car?"
Li Yang was thinking about how to tinker with the bicycle, and when he heard the words of the second uncle, he immediately grinned: "It's sold." ”The second uncle suddenly glared: "What, it's sold???
”Li Yang pulled two wooden stools and sat down: "Uncle, you put down the bamboo basket first, I have something to talk to you about." ”"What's the matter, standing and saying, I still have to mow the grass for the old cattle, feed it, and I have to go to Liujia Village in the afternoon to help Liu Erzi pull bricks."
Li Yang directly pulled the second uncle to squat and sit down: "Don't worry, I'll cut it later, I just came back from Uncle Li Quan, and his car shop recycles bicycles." ”The second uncle took out the hookah and took a few sips before saying, "What does this have to do with you?"
”"It's a big deal, uncle, think about it, there are such scrapped bicycles in the surrounding villages, if I buy these bicycles, wait for the tinkering to be done, and then sell them to Uncle Li Quan, the difference in price is several yuan, and if I am lucky to receive six or seven percent of the new bicycles, the difference is higher.""
What?
How many bucks?
”When Li Degao heard this, he clicked his mouth, and his eyes widened wider than a bull's eye.You must know that he is tired and tired, and there are only twenty or thirty yuan left in a month, and now Li Yang says that the price difference of one car is several yuan, which is very profitable.After pondering for a while, Li Degao said, "Yangzi, could this be your uncle making fun of you?"
”"Uncle, don't worry, don't you know Uncle Quan's personality?""
Nacheng, what do you want to do?""
I'd like to get a tricycle first."
Li Yang thought clearly, to buy these discarded bicycles, you have to have a three-wheeled bicycle."
How much does this cost?"
Li Yang thought for a while and said, "It should be around one hundred and twenty-three, I'll just ask Uncle Quan to weld one." ”"Nacheng, you wait."
The second uncle turned around and walked into the room as he spoke, and after a while, he came out with dozens of crumpled banknotes, which contained ten, five, and two "Yangzi, here are three hundred yuan, the money you get for the car, and the rest of the cost is not enough, you tell your uncle again, I have to mow the grass, and the old scalper has enough to work." ”The second uncle put down the money, picked up the bamboo basket and left.Li Yang took the money and originally wanted to stop the second uncle, but thinking of the tricycle, he had to let the second uncle mow the grass.After suffocating a cigarette, Li Yang directly got up and took the trail and walked to Li Quan's bicycle shop.Li Quan was disassembling the parts of the bicycle he had just purchased, and when he saw Li Yang coming back, he immediately put down the work in his hand."
Yoko, did you get the car and come back so soon?""
Uncle Quan, the matter of the car is temporarily slowing down, and now I have a business to talk to you."
Li Yang said and handed over a cigarette directly.After Li Quan took the cigarette, he suddenly showed his mouth full of big yellow teeth: "What are you polite to uncle, if you have something to say." ”"Uncle Quan, I want you to weld a tricycle for me.""
What do you want this thing for, pulling goods?"
Li Quan was stunned and then said: "Doesn't your second uncle have an ox cart, besides, the tricycle can't pull much goods." ”Li Yang also took out a cigarette and lit it with a smile: "No, Uncle Quan, you just have to help me get it, I'll give you how much money you have." ”Li Quan pointed not far away: "Don't get it, that one is ready-made, if you want it, you will be given a hundred yuan." ”Li Yang took a closer look at the tricycle, and it was in good condition, but the truck was too short to hold much goods."
Uncle Quan, that car card is too short, it can't hold many things, I want to weld a longer car card.""
I'll get you a piece of iron to weld, but you'll have to add five dollars.""
Cheng, Uncle Quan, I'm in a hurry, you can help me get it now."
Li Quan nodded and turned around and walked into the asphalt house, and after a few minutes, dragged out a welding machine.Li Yang was not idle, in order to get the tricycle as soon as possible, he started to work on the side.In order to prevent things from falling, a back door was welded behind the car truck, and the two of them worked for more than an hour before finally getting the car card right.After Li Yang rode and stepped on it, the weight was just right, such a big car truck should be able to pull six or seven hundred catties, which was enough to collect enough abandoned bicycles."
Uncle Quan, this is one hundred and five yuan, you count."
After Li Yang stopped the car, he immediately counted all the money to Li.Li Quan took the money and counted it, and then handed back the five yuan: "One hundred yuan is enough, you take the five yuan back, I have heard about you, Xiumei's mother-in-law is short-sighted, let's not take it to heart." ”"Uncle Quan, what can you do, you have to make money when you open the door to do business, and you have to give as much as you can negotiate."
Li Yang pushed the five yuan back, and then left on a tricycle.He is not a person who likes to take advantage of others, this car Li Quan did not make money at all, and if he changed to such a good tricycle in other places, he could at least sell it for more than 150 yuan.Li Quan received one hundred and five from him, partly because of his relationship with the village, and partly because of his sympathy element.If he takes the five yuan again, his conscience will not go.It was already early afternoon when the three-way car pedaled home, and the old cattle and wooden cart behind the house were no longer there, so it should be the second uncle who led them to pull the goods.Li Yang drank a few sips of porridge, and then measured the rice to cook dinner.As the sun set, the mooing voice of the old scalper came from afar, and the second uncle seemed to be in a good mood today, sitting on the scooter and singing mountain songs.The old scalper raised his head and hummed a few times from time to time, as if he was responding to the second uncle's song.The golden light stretched the figures of a man and an animal to the old age, and the smoke rose in the village, and everything seemed peaceful and calm.Li Yang prepared the meal, and in order to celebrate the beginning of the business, he specially bought a pound of pig's head meat and a pound of bulk rice wine, and also made a fish from the leftovers of the engagement banquet.Li Degao tied up the old ox, and brought a basket of aquatic plants and poured it into the cowshed, and then washed his hands and prepared to eat.When I turned around, I saw a tricycle parked next to me, and my eyes suddenly lit up."
Good guy, such a long car truck can pull at least six or seven hundred catties."
After a few laps around the tricycle, a smile appeared on Li Degao's face.Li Yang walked over and handed the hookah to Li Degao: "Uncle, let's do it, I got one hundred and five yuan." ”"One hundred and five?"
Li Degao took a few puffs of the hookah and said, "I earned it, if you take this car to the town and sell it, it will definitely be sold for more than one hundred and fifteen." ”Li Yang took out a cigarette and lit it, grinning and said: "I am reluctant to sell, this is my mother-in-law who makes money, and I can't sell my mother-in-law if I sell my house, let's go, uncle, let's eat." ”The meal was hot, and after Li Degao sat down, Li Yang immediately filled him with wine.The uncle and nephew were eating and chatting, and the old scalper behind the house mooed from time to time, as if they were also talking to the two.When the sky darkened, Li Degao drank too much, and then wiped his tears while smothering the hookah.said that he had no ability, sorry for Li Yang, he hadn't made any money for so many years, and he couldn't get a wife for Li Yang, and he was sorry for his eldest brother and sister-in-law.Li Yang knew in his heart that Huang Xiumei's matter, the second uncle was more worried than him.He was about to say comfort, but found that the second uncle was frowning, and the person was already asleep.
