Chapter 360
the next day,
Li Lin went to the carpenter's shop first, and arranged some chores for Jin Qiang and the two of them. There were no tools to repair for the time being.

Just go directly to Jin Guangliang's house. He is a master, and the two of them dare not control him. As long as the farming work in the village is not delayed, Li Lin is actually very free.
Jin Guangliang's family lives in Jinjiawan, just across a small river from Tianjia Gelao, and it's only a few steps away.
Jin Guangliang had been waiting for Li Lin for a long time, and when he saw Li Lin coming to greet him warmly,

"Brother Yumin is here, sit down, sit down!" After speaking, he called his youngest son, Jin Sanchui, to pour water for Li Lin.

"Third son, hurry up and pour water for Uncle Yumin, you are so ignorant!"

Although Li Lin said no, Jin Sanchui went to pour water in a panic.

Jin Guangliang has three sons named Sledgehammer, Second Hammer and Third Hammer.

Jin Sanchui is the youngest to stay here, probably for Li Lin to help. After all, the coffin is a big piece, and the faster someone helps, the faster, and their family can save two more rations.

Li Lin didn't wait for Jin Sanchui to come over, and said directly to Jin Guangliang:
"Let's take a look at the wood first. If there is no problem with the wood, let's start working as soon as possible. After all, it belongs to a commune! I can't waste time!"

The Jin family father and son were very happy about what they said, and they quickly took Li Lin to the shed next to the pigsty to look at the wood.
Not to mention the broken ship still has three-point nails. Although the composition of Jin Guangliang’s family is not good, the wood left here is really good. It is a high-quality fir, which was cut in winter. At this time, the xylose content is less, and almost all of it is composed of plant fibers. No insects, no bacteria,

It should have been prepared when the Jin family was rich. When their family was under criticism, it is estimated that ordinary commune members were not interested in this, so they kept it. And there are quite a lot of them. Let alone a coffin, two more are enough. ,
Li Lin looked carefully up and down, nodded, and said:
"Okay, this wood is good, and it's good enough, so let's start!" He said, picking up tools and beckoning Jin Sanhammer to start working.
After working all morning, at noon, Jin Guangliang greeted Li Lin for dinner,
It was probably the first meal, and to show respect for Li Lin, I also prepared two white flour buns for Li Lin, and a plate of cabbage with a layer of oily flowers on it. It looked very appetizing, maybe It's a physical need. It's the first time Li Lin drools over white steamed buns, and it tastes extra sweet.
It's just a little too few, only two, but it's normal, white noodles in the countryside are too expensive these days.

Hei Momo is enough. There is no oil or water in the food these days, and everyone can eat it. It is said that Li Lin has never had enough food in Sun's house.
Not only Li Lin, but also the rest of the Sun family couldn’t get enough to eat. This time, Li Lin took the opportunity to finally eat seven or eight cents. Just seeing the Jin family feels distressed, but let the craftsmen eat enough. It's a rule, and they can't say anything. Li Lin is only seven or eight full, and he is actually showing mercy.

Li Lin didn't ask everyone to eat together. He deserved it. All craftsmen do it when they enter the house. It's strange if you are so happy to walk alone. Besides, he is really greedy for the white flour steamed buns Yes, it’s been so long, and I haven’t eaten it once...

In the next few days, Li Lin would go to the carpenter's shop of the commune to take a look first as usual. He would do the public work first, and then go to Jin Guangliang's house when he was done.

From the second day onwards, Li Lin's food became two yellow buns, which was superior to everyone in the Jin family. They were all poor people, so Li Lin naturally didn't say much.
Anyway, I try to help others to build and finish things as early as possible, and do my duty.

Li Lin didn't eat at home, and it was rare for everyone in the Sun family to eat two more black steamed buns. The whole family was happy and hoped that the days would be better.

……

On this day, Sun Yuhou was smoking at home, thinking about Li Lin's marriage while smoking. Li Lin is now skilled, and now he is going to find someone to help talk about the marriage. worry,

But even though I have skills, my family still doesn't have much money, and the dowry is still not available, so I'm worried.

At this time, Sun Yuting staggered in, walked straight to Sun Yuhou,
"Brother, I'm at home, what are you thinking?" He stretched out his hand and grabbed a handful of tobacco leaves from Sun Yuhou's cigarette pouch, and happily added them to his cigarette holder.
Although Sun Yuhou could not understand this second brother, he still said truthfully:
"Isn't our third brother not young anymore? I thought about telling him about my mother-in-law. Now he is a craftsman anyway, which is different from the past. Even though our family doesn't have many betrothal gifts, I think it should be fine. You Say it?"

Although Sun Yuting was a little dissatisfied that Li Lin didn't build anything for himself, he was still a brother after all. Hearing this, he took a puff of cigarette and said:

"What Big Brother said is also reasonable. It is indeed what it should be. The third child is a craftsman, which is different from the past. There must be girls who are willing. Big Brother, do you have any candidates?"

"Where do I have it? I don't have to worry about it! Hey, I'm so worried!" Sun Yuhou also frowned and took a puff of cigarette, suddenly his eyes lit up and asked:
"By the way, Yuting, isn't your Fengyi the women's director of our village? She often holds meetings in eight villages and knows a lot of people. Go back and ask Fengyi to see if she knows anyone.

Our third brother is also a craftsman at any rate, so we can't introduce someone who is too bad, otherwise we will feel sorry for our father who died early! "

Sun Yuting nodded repeatedly when he heard it. This is the reason. Now that our Sun family has a craftsman, we really need to find a better mother-in-law.

There are only three girls in his own family, and they will get married sooner or later, so they are useless.
Although the elder brother's family has two male children, he still feels a little thin. It is better for the third younger brother to have more male children, so that the old grandson's family can be regarded as a big family in the Tian family in the future. a,
Maybe a few years later, this Shuangshui Village will be up to Sun Yuting. Thinking of this, Sun Yuting suddenly felt that this was a major event related to his future, and immediately said firmly:
"Success, big brother, leave this matter to me and Feng Yi, don't worry, Feng Yi also knows a lot of old women! I must say good things to my third brother!"

After speaking, he stood up immediately and was about to leave. This is a big deal, but he caught a glimpse of a few new benches in the yard from the corner of his eye, and stopped in his tracks.

I thought to myself, if I introduce my mother-in-law and aunt to the third child, it is not too much to ask for something. Besides, this is from my own home, so I smiled at Sun Yuhou and said:
"Brother, I've taken these benches. The kids are all grown up, and there's no place to sit!" When I saw a new steamer, I picked it up.
"Hey, big brother, I'm going back then, don't worry, the matter of the third child is on my shoulders!" After saying that, he slipped away happily.

Sun Yuhou had nothing to do with this second brother, he could only lament that he had such a younger brother.

……

In the blink of an eye, on the weekend, Li Lin took the five yuan big heads he had earned from the Jin family, and took a closer look. Most of them were ordinary versions from the tenth year of the Republic of China.

There is one special one, it was cast in the third year of the Republic of China, and it is a coarse-haired version. Yuan Datou's hair is thicker, with a wavy hairstyle, and the Jiahe knot does not form a crisscross "8" knot flower. On the right is a bunch of Jiahe knot. The band forms an irregular circle.

This one is relatively rare, although it is not the most valuable in Yuan Datou, but it is quite good,
Now this thing is not worth much. Although Li Lin doesn't know how to identify it, the chance of it being fake is not high. At this time, no one will be free to fake this thing.

So this one needs to be kept well, and the others should be dealt with as soon as possible to exchange for some money or rations.
It's still early in the morning, so Li Lin walked directly to the outside of the village. He didn't go to the Shigejie Commune. Although it is the superior commune of their Shuangshui Village, there is actually nothing there.
It is not as prosperous as Mijia Town in Linxian County. Mijia Town is similar to a small county town. It basically has all the county towns. It is only about [-] miles away from Shuangshui Village.

Therefore, the members of Shuangshui Village basically go to Mijia Town for shopping, and they will not go to Yuanxi County.

……

Most of the commune members do not have bicycles these days, and they basically walk on the 11th road, and Li Lin is no exception.

After walking for more than two hours, I arrived at the commercial street in Mijia Town.

Although it is called a commercial street, it looks dilapidated and dilapidated. It can be seen that no one is resting at all, but there are many shops and people. Today is just the weekend, and Mijia Town is the only town with a prosperous commercial atmosphere. More people come to buy,

However, Li Lin's goal is not here for the time being. He has to go to the black market in front of the commercial street to see if he can sell Yuan Datou. If he can't, he doesn't plan to keep it.
The commercial street in the black market is not far away, just two streets away. There are not as many people here as there are in the commercial street, but they are not too few, but most of them are silent, which is quite different from the bustling commercial street next door.
Most of the people carried a carrying basket, and they were all wrapped tightly. Everyone was very vigilant, as if they were thieves, but yes, in a sense, they were all 'thieves' now!

Li Lin walked around with Yuan Datou, showing his face from time to time, but no one cared about it at all.

Li Lin couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. This place really doesn't seem like there is anyone who accepts Yuan Datou. After all, it is a small place. There are almost no people who are willing to accept this stuff. Most of them are for food. The purpose of what they do these days It's clear, just to get enough to eat,

There are no organizers in this black market, it is just a small market spontaneously formed near the commercial street of Mijia Town, the government also turns a blind eye to it, occasionally cracking down on it when necessary, and then slowly recovering after the crackdown ,
Seeing that there was no hope, Li Lin was just about to leave when a small eye stopped him,
"Brother, are you going to sell Yuan Datou, hehe, I just saw you take it out!"

Hearing this, Li Lin looked the little eyes up and down. He was dressed in tatters, and he really didn't look like a rich man, but he still said:
"Why do you want to buy it? At what price?"

Seeing Li Lin sizing him up with small eyes, he didn't take it seriously, and said with a smile:

"That's natural. The credit union charges four yuan, and I receive five yuan! Only this one has no semicolon! I only charge Yuan Datou in the entire black market!"

Li Lin thought that this is a capable person, and after thinking about it, he suddenly asked:

"You often go to Huangyuan!" Huangyuan is a regional city, where there are many people with culture and strength, there must be someone who accepts Yuan Datou, and the price must be very different.

The little eyes opened their mouths and said:
"Of course..." As he said that, he immediately shut his mouth and said vigilantly: "Why do you ask this, I will tell you if you like it or not!" Then he turned around and wanted to leave.

Li Lin quickly pulled his little eyes,
"Don't be busy, don't be busy, I'll sell you, I'm just asking!" He didn't want to go to Huangyuan because of this. I don’t know, I don’t know where I am. I can’t find out if I don’t know the locals. He was planning to go to the credit union.
Small eyes saw that Li Lin took out four big Yuan heads, first carefully looked at them, and then picked them up one by one and blew them. Hearing the familiar sound, he happily took out 20 yuan and handed it to Li Lin.

"Here you are, money and goods are settled!"

Li Lin took the money and said with a smile:
"What's your name, brother? When are you usually here? How can I find you in the future?" This small eye is also considered a capable person in this period, and there is no harm in getting acquainted.
Seeing that the transaction was successful and he could make another fortune, Xiaoyan was also in a good mood, but he was more cautious in speaking, and after thinking about it, he said:
"You can just call me Heizi. I will be here on the second Sunday of every month. If you have something to sell, you can come to me!"

Li Lin didn't expect to get online with him once, and the future will be long, so he nodded, and prepared to take the newly warm money to buy some white noodles or something, or else he would have to eat black noodles every day when he returned home. fed up,

"Then there will be Yuan Datou in the future, and I'm here to find you!"

The two broke up amicably, and Li Lin exchanged [-] catties of white noodles and [-] catties of millet noodles from other people. Because food stamps are not required in the black market, the price is a little higher than outside.

A catty of white flour is [-] cents and [-] cents, but here it costs a little over [-] cents a catty, twenty catties of white flour costs more than four yuan, and broomcorn noodles are even cheaper.
In fact, he could still buy some more, but he couldn’t take them back. Carrying about fifty catties for thirty miles, even if he was in a strong body, was quite tiring.

At first, I was thinking about buying some meat, but later I saw that there was no more. He came a little late, and they were all sold out.
At this time, it was already past noon, and Li Lin's stomach was growling with hunger.
So I hurried to the commercial street in Mijia Town and ate two bowls of oil-splashed noodles. The hot oil was poured on the spicy noodles, and Li Lin was so greedy that his mouth was watering. This was probably the best meal he had after crossing. up.

Thinking of this, Li Lin lamented that the conditions of this trip were poor while eating the noodles. When would he be happy because of a bowl of oily noodles!
……

Although Li Lin was not particularly tired with a weight of fifty catties on his back, he still walked around and took a break from time to time.
I walked for more than two hours when I came here, and it took about three hours to go back.
When walking to the fork in Shuangshui Village and Guanzi Village,
Li Lin saw that it was still early, so he turned to Guanzi Village to see his hard-fated niece Sun Lanhua,

It's just that he was a bit late in crossing, otherwise he would definitely prevent Sun Lanhua from marrying that bum Wang Manyin,
Now thinking about the life of this eldest niece, I really feel distressed. The second-rate husband on the stall has not enough food and clothing every day, and he has two dolls with him!

Their Sun family is miserable enough, and they often help Sun Lanhua, so one can imagine what kind of life Sun Lanhua lives.
