Chapter 624: One Small Fish for One Textbook
The two walked side by side and headed towards the car outside the door.
"Big brother (big pot)!" Fatty Wang, Chen Hao, and Chen Li shouted at the same time.
The guard took out a heavy square gasoline barrel filled with gasoline from the car.
The domestic production technology of plastics such as polyethylene has only been in operation for a short time and has not yet been used on a large scale in civilian areas. Gasoline barrels are made of precious metal materials.
Chen Li said, "Big Pot, shall we go shopping together?"
The little girl couldn't wait to stand up from the passenger seat, with an look on her face that said, "I'm ready to go shopping right away." She looked like a real rich girl.
The guard coughed twice and explained to Chen Li a little embarrassedly: "Um... Lili, I'm really sorry, I didn't bring any money when I went out today!"
Hearing this, Chen Li, who was originally full of joy, suddenly widened her eyes and tilted her head to look at the guard.
The dream was shattered, and the next second, he put his hands on his hips, ready to announce that he was breaking off relations with them.
Chen Feng quickly comforted her: "Lily, stop making trouble, we will go to your uncle's house to play later."
Before she finished speaking, Chen Li, who was heartbroken just now, suddenly stopped being angry, blinked her big watery eyes and asked, "Can we roast the bird and eat it then?"
"Uh, look."
"Chen Hao, come here and move things!" Zhou Qing shouted.
"Brother, hurry down and move the things!"
As soon as Chen Hao goes down, Chen Li can take over the driver's seat.
"Xiao Jie, I have a second car!"
Li Jie nodded frantically under the car: "Lily, can I come up and play?"
"No, everyone stay down there and don't go up." Chen Hao came over with the bag on his back.
"Chen Hao, put the things here." Chen Feng smiled and told Chen Hao to put the things down. Fatty Wang also helped and moved the rice out of the sack.
"Jiang Hongjun, stop playing football. Go ask everyone if anyone has old textbooks. If you have any, bring them out. A 4-liang fish can be exchanged for an old book, and an 8-liang fish can be exchanged for two. I will take them to the countryside and give them to my cousins."
Jiang Hongjun looked at the ball in his hand speechlessly. He was going to help move things, but Fatty Wang wouldn't let him.
"Okay, big brother!"
"Come on, everyone go to each courtyard and ask. The eldest brother wants to exchange fish for old textbooks. If you want to eat fish, take out your old textbooks."
Jiang Hongjun and several other boys from nearby courtyards immediately separated, one went to the back yard, and several went to other yards to inquire.
Even if you are reported for exchanging a fish for useless old textbooks, it is not illegal.
Chen Feng also lost a few cents!
But there is no way. The number of textbooks is limited, and it is impossible for every student in the remote mountainous schools in Beijing to have a book.
Although there are still picture books, novels, newspapers, etc. for sale in the city.
Li Yunlong scratched his head and said to the old man: "Is this child always so kind? It's easy to suffer losses!"
He came out of the Dabie Mountains and embarked on the road of revolution. He had seen too much suffering and knew very well that it was impossible to save everyone one by one!
The only way is to protect yourself first and then change the environment.
The old man smiled and said, "No matter how capable he is, he can do great good. He knows how to do it."
"Besides, they are from the Zhou family. The people in this village are all good and have always been very united. If we make friends with them now, maybe Dinghai and Fubo will be able to be of use in the future."
"It's a good idea to recycle old books and give them to children in the countryside." Li Yunlong took a sip of wine and asked, "How do those junk collection companies deal with old books?"
The old man was very taboo about this topic and shook his head, saying, "These things are not our business, so don't interfere."
Li Yunlong took a big gulp of wine.
He has an impulsive personality and always likes to take action when he sees something he doesn't like. If it weren't for this and the many demerits he received, he wouldn't have been promoted to the rank of major general!
After they had packed the rice, meat, etc., Jiang Hongjun and his group also arrived with a group of children, all of whom were students from a large courtyard nearby.
"Brother Chen, we don't want fish. Can you take us fishing next time?"
"Brother Chen, me too."
"Brother, I don't want anything."
Some of the children were originally Chen Hao's younger brothers, so they were very generous and didn't want the fish at all.
Some of them are not following Chen Hao, they just want to join the team.
There were also some smart ones who took a fancy to the haul that Jiang Hongjun and his men made while fishing with Chen Hao and wanted to get a piece of the pie.
"Okay, it's a deal, one book for one fish, that's the only condition!"
Chen Feng said to Chen Hao: "Remember all the names. Next time you catch a live fish, repay the debts one by one."
There were live fish in the tank, but Chen Feng didn't want them to know.
More than a hundred old textbooks were collected, covering different grades. Chen Feng was too lazy to sort them out and simply bought more than a hundred fish.
In addition, he also took out a large stack of cut blank straw paper from the study (space) and placed it in the car.
No books?
It’s simple, just let the adults help copy the books!
After installation, the space in the car became even smaller.
"Brother, this car is not big, can we fit all of us?" Fatty Wang looked at the remaining space in the car and felt a little worried.
"You don't have to go. Chen Hao, my little sister and I will go."
Chen Feng did not plan to take Fatty Wang and Hu Bayi with him. They were family members in the Chen family, but not in the Zhou family.
Some rules still need to be observed.
"Chen Feng, you have to drive steadily and don't damage the car." After Chen Feng and the other three got in the car, Li Yunlong kept chattering like an old lady.
Watching Chen Feng's quick and attentive attitude made her feel as reluctant as watching her own daughter getting married.
"Boom boom" the car started to move away along the alley after accelerating and pressing the clutch.
"It moved, it really moved, Brother Xiaofeng is so awesome!"
The eyes of a group of children were almost shining with admiration.
Being a driver is a high-paying profession. If a family has a driver, they will feel very proud when they go out and will not have to worry about finding a wife as there will be many people willing to marry them.
Many children dream of becoming a driver and being very powerful.
"Chen Hao, look ahead when driving. In an alley like this, the speed should be less than 30 mph. This way, if someone runs out in front of us, we can brake in time."
While driving, he also taught Chen Hao how to drive.
Chen Hao was unlucky. Chen Jianguo ran away and he lost a good teacher, so this matter fell on Chen Feng.
In fact, the old man wanted to borrow the car and let Chen Feng teach Chen Hao how to drive.
Chen Hao held his sister Chen Li in his arms, listening carefully in the passenger seat and watching Chen Feng's movements from time to time.
Drive out, get on the highway, and head towards Tianjin.
The car had a license plate from the military compound, so no one was so foolish as to jump out and rob it along the way.
Of course, it may also be because of the timely rain this year, which has led to a good harvest in the Hebei Plain, so people don’t have to take the risk of breaking the law.
