Return to 1983: Starting from hunting in the mountains

Chapter 25 Buying a Gun
  "Jiansheng, you haven't eaten yet since you came back from the county. You sit down and rest for a while, and I'll heat up the food." As soon as Lu Jiansheng sat down, Bai Ruoxi said quickly.

"Bai Ruoxi is such a virtuous wife!"

Lu Jiansheng sighed inwardly, then opened the sack hanging behind the pole and took out the kerosene lamp:
  "Ruoxi, it's dark in the kitchen this night. The kerosene lamp I just bought from the county can be used just right."

Lu Jiansheng handed Bai Ruoxi the kerosene and other supplies.

"Ah."

Bai Ruoxi nodded, feeling slightly happy as she took the kerosene lamp, and then went to the kitchen.

Lu Jiansheng felt much better after eating Bai Ruoxi's hot meal. He looked at the two milk dumplings who were happily eating sweets, and said to Bai Ruoxi beside him: "I'm going to Uncle Fugui's house, and I'll be back later. You're at home." Take the kids with you.”

Uncle Fugui is the village chief Liu Fugui. He is the richest man in Liuligouzi Village. Not only does his family raise a few old hens, but he also just caught a piglet. In this age when there is no fat in the belly, Liu Fugui can even earn 100 pounds in a month. Eat meat occasionally.

There is such a big gap between Liu Fugui and the villagers. In addition to being the village chief, he also served as the militia company commander before the production team was disbanded. He has some respect in the village. Liu Fugui helped introduce Lu Jiansheng to the ditch digging job. , but the help was not in vain. The whole family dug out two kilograms of white flour from between their teeth.

Bai Ruoxi nodded without asking why, and just asked Lu Jiansheng to come back soon.

"Tangtang, be good! Dad come back early, otherwise Tangtang will fall asleep."

"Woooooo~ Xixi doesn't dare!"

"Dad, I just came back from the county and I'm tired~ I need to have a good rest!"

The reason why Lu Jiansheng came to Liu Fugui was because he had served as a militia company commander and might have military guns in his hands.

Lu Jiansheng couldn't help but laugh. Liu Fugui, who was in his fifties and usually had a bald head and a fierce look, was afraid of the two little guys.

"Dad, why are you going to Grandpa Bald's house so late?"

When the two little guys heard that their father was going out again, and thought of their mother saying that their father was very tired, they acted like little adults.

"Why do you want to go with dad too?" Lu Jiansheng looked at the two little breast dumplings with a smile.

As soon as Lu Jiansheng came out of the house, he shrank from the cold weather. It was snowing heavily in the sky.

"Then you guys are at home and listen to mommy." Lu Jiansheng smiled and patted Tangtang Xixi's little head.

Guns are not a rare thing these days. As long as you have money, you can get them in wild enough ways, not to mention guns and grenades. But Lu Jiansheng doesn't even have enough money to buy an air gun, and there are no ways in this county.

"Dad, come back soon."

"Okay! Dad will be back soon."

When they heard that Lu Jiansheng was going to take them there, the two little guys shook their heads like rattles.

Lu Jiansheng went to the village chief Liu Fugui's house in the snow. He just came back and saw that Liu Fugui's house was still lit, so he probably hadn't fallen asleep yet.

The two little guys looked at him with big watery eyes, and then waved their little hands.

"Tangtang, I still want to accompany my mother!"

But this didn't bother him. If he wanted to buy a real gun at a low price, he could only start with people in his own village.

It can only be said that although there are many people with guns in Liuligouzi, they are basically homemade guns, most of which are single-barreled. The bullets are black powder, iron sand and fuses. The power of these guns is not much different from that of air guns. Lu Jiansheng is not too Rare.

You must know that although all members of the militia were soldiers in the past, there were differences between militiamen. Militiamen were divided into ordinary militiamen and basic militiamen. The two were different.
  For ordinary militiamen, you can become a militia until you reach age. For core militiamen, you must not only meet the age limit, but also "everything" must be qualified (such as good family status, etc.). In other words, each brigade can become a militia as long as it reaches age, but Each production team of the basic militia has only one platoon. The basic militia often participates in military training, which is almost the same as army training. They can even take their guns home.

Although the ordinary militiamen learned some militia knowledge, they had little training, and some of them had never even touched a gun. Moreover, each village had a quota for the basic militiamen. This fully shows the importance of the militia company commander at that time.

Lu Jiansheng came to the village chief Liu Fugui's home. Seeing that it was still lit, he quickly knocked on the door.

"Who is it! It's such a cold day, in the middle of the night."

Liu Fugui was lying on the kang with his head bare, and the kerosene lamp next to the dry smoke was shining brightly on his head. His wife next to him was about to fall asleep. When he heard the knock on the door outside, he reluctantly got up from the bed. Put on a coat.

Liu Fugui opened the door and was stunned when he saw the person outside the door clearly. Isn't this that boy Jiansheng? If you were looking for him in the middle of the night, you couldn't be asking him to help you intercede, right? He had heard someone say that Lu Jiansheng hadn't gone to work for several days! He immediately regretted why he got up and opened the door!
  "Jiansheng, why are you looking for me in the middle of the night? It wasn't my uncle who told you not to work hard. Now you regret it! But it's useless for you to look for me! Who is selling face to me, an old guy now?" Liu Fugui He immediately wanted to send Lu Jiansheng away.

Lu Jiansheng: "..."

"Uncle, you misunderstood, I came here to buy a gun from you!" Lu Jiansheng said straight to the point.

"Buy a gun? Jiansheng, stop joking. Why did you buy that thing? Besides, you have money? Stop making fun of me."

Liu Fugui quickly waved his hand.

"Uncle Fugui, what do you think this is??" Lu Jiansheng took out a big unity card from his arms.

Liu Fugui's eyes suddenly lit up: "Great unity!!"

Ten yuan is not a small amount. Although Liu Fugui does not lack these ten yuan, who thinks it is too little! Especially when the production team is disbanded, all property becomes personal.

"Come in! Come in! It's so cold outside."

Liu Fugui immediately pulled Lu Jiansheng closer to the room with a smile.

"You kid, if you want a gun, why don't you just make it yourself? You have to buy it from my uncle. I'm so embarrassed."

Liu Fugui didn't even ask where Lu Jiansheng's money came from, and ran into the house with a smile.

After a while, he took out three guns and threw them in front of Lu Jiansheng.

"It costs five yuan a handful, and three handfuls worth ten yuan are given to you. These are all made by my son."

"What a weird idea!"

It takes some time to make a native gun, but the cost is very low. Lu Jiansheng doesn't want this thing.

"Uncle Fugui, do you have a better gun?" Lu Jiansheng said.

"Better! But your ten yuan is not enough." Liu Fugui said and moved another wooden box from the house.

Liu Fugui opened the box,

Lu Jiansheng couldn't help but be delighted when he saw it. This turned out to be a Type 56 semi-automatic rifle.
  You must know that the five-six-half is a weapon trained by the basic militia during the production team period, but it is not available everywhere.

Weapons distribution is also localized. For example, the militiamen in coastal areas are better equipped with weapons. In Gwangju County, the basic militiamen in many villages are actually distributed with various models and calibers. They include old sleeves, Hanyang-made weapons, etc. , medium and formal, thirty-eight, fifty-fifty, five, six and half.

　I’m asking for advice, and by the way, what’s the right price to buy it from Liu Fugui!
