59 years after its opening, people are still in Nanluoguxiang

After buying the comic book, he went to the candy counter.

There was still a long queue at the candy counter.

As the largest commercial center in the country, the daily customer flow here is very large.

On the counter, a familiar face of Chen Feng was weighing and settling accounts quickly.

‘He has been transferred here now? ’

Zhang Binggui, a candy salesman in the department store, specially developed a method of fast checkout to reduce the waiting time, and thus became the protagonist of Bing Xin’s novel.

He later became a famous national model worker, and after his death, a bronze statue was erected in front of the department store.

Leader Chen wrote an inscription for him, “A ball of fire” spirit shines on China.

Chen Feng recognized Zhang Binggui by the bronze statue.

He muttered to himself and took out the comic book he had just bought to look through it.

A little kid behind him stood on tiptoe and stretched his neck to peek.

Chen Feng smiled and put the little book down.

"Thank you, uncle."

The little boy was very polite, but he mistook his height for his age, which hurt Chen Feng's kindness a little.

After reading half of the comic book, Chen Feng came to the counter.

"Uncle Zhang, give me a pound, a little of everything."

Chen Feng took the ticket and money and handed it to Zhang Binggui at the counter.

"Little comrade, do you know me?"

Zhang Binggui said happily while weighing the candy enthusiastically and quickly.

Not long ago, he was transferred from the pastry counter to the candy counter according to work needs.

For an idealist like him who is dedicated to serving the people, being remembered by customers is a very honorable thing.

Chen Feng smiled and said, "You are a model worker in our Sijiu City. My father told me to learn from you."

Zhang Binggui was a model worker in Sijiu City in 1957. In 1978, he was awarded the title of special salesperson by Sijiu City. In 1979, he was awarded the title of national model worker.

It was from this candy counter that he started as a hard-working salesperson and gradually mastered the amazing "one-grab-accurate" hand-feel weighing and "one-mouth-clear" mental arithmetic skills.

The number of people served exceeded millions!

"Haha, I dare not do that. I am just a salesperson, just like everyone else."

"One pound of sugar, please keep it."

"Thank you, uncle."

Chen Feng carried the bag and quickly left the counter.

He left the department store and walked to an empty corner, taking out the fish bucket and fishing rod in the space.

He walked home with his things.

"Oh my god, another full bucket of fish, amazing!"

An old lady sitting at the entrance of the alley stretched her neck to take a look, and suddenly couldn't sit still and shouted loudly.

Chen Feng did this on purpose, not wanting them to know that he could fish, maybe someone would report him if he ate something good at home in the future.

Although they wouldn't have too much trouble as military dependents.

But it's also annoying if the Public Security Bureau and the Street Office talk to you every day.

"Xiao Feng, let me see."

"Oh my god, there are so many loaches, you're going to get rich."

"I heard from Sha Zhu that you roasted loaches with Xifeng wine yesterday, and you're living a comfortable life."

A group of unemployed aunties who were guarding the alley talked to each other.

Chen Feng smiled and said, "It's because there is no food."

"If I had food at home, I would go to school now."

"Going to school is important. If you pass the technical secondary school or high school entrance exam, it will be much better than going fishing."

"Yes, Xiaofeng, studying is important. Don't delay your homework."

Chen Feng nodded and got out of their encirclement.

"Oh, I forgot to ask him where he caught the loach."

As soon as Chen Feng entered the door, his keen sense of smell smelled the aroma of seasonings wafting from the kitchen.

Walking to the kitchen, he saw that Sha Zhu had indeed left work early and was making seasonings.

"Zhu Zi, you came back early, did you say hello to your superiors?"

Sha Zhu smiled and said, "I said I would cook for your grandfather today, and they dared not give me face?"

Take a look at the fish bucket and the bag of crabs in Chen Feng's hand.

"What's in the bag?"

Chen Feng put down the fish bucket and took out the crabs inside.

"Here."

Sha Zhu sighed: "I really don't know where you got so many crabs. Your father is lucky. He will not go hungry in the future with you."

Chen Feng asked: "Zhu Zi, do you want two kilograms of loach or one yuan?"

Sha Zhu said as a matter of course: "You are talking nonsense. I definitely want loach. This thing is delicious when eaten with wine!"

"What's the use of money?"

Money is still a little useful, although not much.

Qing

The steamed crabs were not yet cooked, but Chen Hao and He Yushui could not concentrate on reading. Like Chen Li, they lined up, leaning against the kitchen wall, and looked at the steam from the steamer.

After Chen Feng and Sha Zhu finished talking, the little girl could not wait to look at his chest.

There was something inside.

"Big pot!"

"What are you doing?" Chen Feng looked at the three of them and asked curiously.

"We are competing to see who can stand longer. Whoever loses will have to take out two crab claws for the winner." Chen Hao replied.

"You are so boring."

Chen Feng took out the candy in his chest, took out three, and gave one to each person.

"Thank you, big brother."

"Thank you, brother Feng."

"Big pot, you are so nice!"

The little girl had a candy in her mouth. She wanted to hug him, but when she saw the two big ones, her body stopped moving again.

Chen Feng smiled and took out the comic book and deliberately placed it next to the stove.

"I bought the books and put them here. Whoever likes them can take them first."

"Forget it, I give up."

He Yushui immediately stepped forward and picked a book to kill time.

Chen Hao looked at the little girl, and the little girl also looked up at her second brother.

"Little sister, you give up."

"No, I want to eat."

Chen Hao glanced at the colorful cover, hesitated, and gave in.

"Then how about we make peace?"

"No!" The little girl said firmly.

After standing for a few minutes, Chen Hao gave up.

"You win."

Rushed forward and wanted to take both comic books away, but was slapped on the back of his hand by He Yushui.

"You are a brother, you should give in to your sister."

"That's right, Haozi, people can't be greedy." Sha Zhu said beside him.

Chen Hao took one and gave the remaining one to the complacent little girl.

"Big pot, I win!"

Chen Feng held the little girl in his arms, sitting in the kitchen, holding a comic book, telling her the story.

"Second child, put the candy away for grandma."

"Oh, okay."

Chen Hao carried the candy bag and obediently sent it to the old man's room.

Although this guy is greedy, he has one advantage, that is, he is obedient and dare not mess around.

The old man lay on the bed and waved to Chen Hao who came in.

"Did your eldest brother buy it?"

"Yes, grandpa, my eldest brother also caught a lot of loaches and crabs." Chen Hao answered respectfully. "We can eat loaches again tonight."

"Silly grandson, are you celebrating the New Year every day?"

The old man shook his head.

Pick up a candy and put it in his mouth.

"Give it to your grandmother, and tell your brother Zhuzi that it is enough to just cook crabs, and the loaches should be exchanged for food."

The old man murmured: "With food at home, there is no need to worry. Food is better than loaches."
