Reborn in the red years, I am farming in space

Chapter 623 Live in a local family
"Can't you live?!"

"This is the last few places. After you live in, I won't put people in it anymore. Young people, are you going to live in?"

This is the person in charge of the guest house asking Luo Xuan.

at the same time,

Behind Luo Xuan, there was also a questioning voice, "Can you guys live?"

When Zhang Xiaoli, and Peng Yong turned their heads to look: it was Xu Daliang and his classmates that they met on the long-distance bus.

I saw that they were also covered in snow and muddy water, their expressions were sluggish, and they were in a state of embarrassment.
"I can't stop."

Luo Xuan glanced at the thin figure who was waving towards him outside the registration room door of the guest house.

Then he said, "Xiaoli, Peng Yong, let's go."

Standing behind Xu Daliang, a female student said worriedly, "Student, you have to think about it, we have also found about 10 guest houses, and they are full everywhere."

"Fang Juan!"

Xu Daliang said with dissatisfaction, "Speak lightly and deeply. Don't talk nonsense."

This guy!
It was because they were afraid that Luo Xuan would agree to move in. In this case, they would have no place to stay
out the door of the guest house,

Peng Yong smiled faintly, "Xu Daliang is a man who speaks classic quotations, and what he speaks must be the popular catchphrase of a tall man.

It looks very righteous, and the performance is warm enough. But this person is definitely not worth dating. "

"It's often the guy who shouts loudly and has a high tone. Stay away from him. That's right."

Luo Xuan chuckled, "Human nature is the worst thing that can stand the test. No matter how good your normal communication is, once you encounter a conflict of interest, you can see a person's true face."

He waved to the thin figure who was hiding behind the telegraph pole, poking his head and looking in this direction.

"Kid, come here."

Luo Xuan smiled and said to the little boy, "You asked me to come out, what's the matter?"

From behind the telephone pole, the little boy looked around with a little panic.

Then, a little nervously, staring at the door of the guest house, he waved to Luo Xuan, "Come here, I dare not go there."

Luo Xuan stepped forward, "Tell me, how many people can live in your house?"

The little boy showed surprise, "How do you know, the erm is here to solicit business?"

Luo Xuan smiled slightly, "You don't know me. You saw me registering a room in the guest house, and then you wanted to call me out.

Besides soliciting business, you're not here to treat me to dinner, are you? "

"You can't talk about taking business!"

The torn padded jacket on the little boy was very thin, standing in the cold wind, he was shivering from head to toe.

But at this moment, the expression on the little boy's face was very serious, "I have to say stay overnight. If someone asks, just say you are my second uncle."

The little boy pointed at Zhang Xiaoli, "She is my second mirror. This big brother is my third father.

Remember, if anyone asks, you must say so. "

Zhang Xiaoli was puzzled, "What does this mean? And what are the three mirrors?"

The little boy replied, "The third mirror is the wife of the third uncle. Now the 'anti-private squad' is investigating closely.

If they see my house, take guests back privately, and carry out profitable business activities, it will be troublesome. "

"Oh, I see."

Zhang Xiaoli suddenly realized, "That's fine! If I meet someone who asks me, just say that I am your so what. The third mirror?"

Luo Xuan patted her, "It's really useless if you encounter that kind of thing.

You and I both have big bags and small bags, and we speak with foreign accents.Do you think you can fool the past? "

Peng Yong asked, "Then what should we do? It's so cold now, if we stand on the street all night, won't we be frozen into popsicles?"

Luo Xuan said, "Actually, it's not that difficult. I gave them 3 yuan in private. Can it be solved?"

this time,

It was the little boy's turn to be in trouble.

I saw him frowning, almost crying out loud, "Uh, if I take you home to spend the night, I can't make much money. If I give them another 3 yuan, I will lose it!"

"How can it be so suitable, just happen to meet them?"

Luo Xuan comforted the little boy, "Let's do this, in case we meet them. The 3 yuan will be mine, and we will pay for the overnight stay at your house."

Hearing this, the little boy laughed through his tears, "Okay, okay, don't go back on your word!"

Then under the leadership of the little boy,
Everyone walked through the streets and alleys with one foot deep and one foot shallow, until they came to an alley that was almost composed of cave dwellings.

The little boy turned his head to look behind him and observed carefully for a moment.

Then he took out the key, walked to a small courtyard, unlocked the lock on it, and led Luo Xuan and the others into the courtyard.

Into the small yard,
What came into view was a row of 3-hole kilns.

The yard is small, with dry yellow grass on the wall, shivering in the cold wind.

Although the yard is small,
But there are miscellaneous things piled up, but there are quite a lot: dilapidated wicker baskets, various pieces of paper picked up, and thin iron sheets from rusty cars.

Broken foreign-leather iron barrels and waste stoves that others don’t want
Luo Xuan was even in a corner.Also saw a concrete pier!
The steel bars inside the concrete pier are exposed, like an octopus with teeth and claws
The few tattered wicker frames may have been picked up by the little boy to be used as firewood.

As for the abandoned iron sheet stove, it is very likely that it is a little boy who wants to remove the outer layer of iron sheet.

to sell for money.

In the corner of the small courtyard, there are still some dead tree trunks of different sizes piled up.

Come to think of it,

It was the fuel used by the family for cooking and heating the kang.

Although there are many coal mines in Saibei.

But ordinary people like the little boy who belong to urban resident registration and live in the city.

They are simply reluctant to spend money to buy coal and burn it back.

The big guys usually go to the mountains to pick up some dead branches; or pick up some rotten boards on the construction site.

Come back and chop wood for the fire.

The poorest inhabitants of towns.In fact, their lives may not be better than those poor households in the production team.
After all, living in the countryside, if there is no food to eat.

You can also go to your own private plot, pick up a handful of rotten vegetable leaves or something, and make do with it.
Wait until everyone enters the house.

There was no light in the cave dwelling, and it was so dark that people couldn't see the environment in the house clearly.

There is no light in the house, that's all.

But the temperature in this room is also very low.There is no way to give people that feeling of coming home.

Everyone only felt that the inside of the room was not much warmer than the outside.

Maybe this family,

They are reluctant to burn the stove too hot, but the minimum standard is to ensure that the stove will not be extinguished and will not freeze to death.

So much so that the temperature in the room is so low that it makes people feel a little stiff.

At the time when Luo Xuan and Zhang Xiaoli were a little dissatisfied with this.

In the cave dwelling inside, a woman's voice came out, "Dandan, are you back?"

The little boy nodded, "Ma'am, I brought back three guests."

Niangniang is in Saibei, which means grandma.

"呲-"

The little boy fumbled to strike a match, and lit the kerosene lamp in the outer cave.

This move brought

The woman in the back room complained: "Dandan, what are you lighting a match for? There is firewood in the stove, so you can come in with a kerosene lamp to borrow a fire, won't it be enough? Alas, another match was wasted."

In the dim light, the little boy stuck out his tongue, "I brought back 3 guests today... and they seem to be quite generous.

So when I was happy, I forgot about it.Hey ma'am, hasn't my sister come back yet? "

"not yet."

The woman fumbled to put on her clothes, and then lifted the curtain between the two cave dwellings.

Walked out slowly, "Did you draw the curtains tight?"

The little boy pointed to the window, "Don't worry, ma'am, I've covered it tightly with a sack. Make sure you can't see the lights in our house from the outside."

The woman looked at Luo Xuan and Zhang Xiaoli, and then asked, "Dandan, have you agreed on the price with the guests?"

The little boy shook his head, "Eh, I saw people from the anti-secret team walking around the street. I was scared, worried that I would run into Ma Da.

So after connecting with the guests, I took it home directly, before I had time to talk about it. "

The woman nodded, "Then you can talk to others quietly now! Don't dare to let people outside hear the sound in the room."

This guy was called Dandan by his grandma.

Luo Xuan still doesn't know his name.

Just because the word Dandan is very common here.

It is a family member, a nickname for one's younger generation; it is not even a nickname.

The little boy turned around,
Ask Luo Xuan for the price: "Uncle, if you stay at our house for one night, it costs 1 cents per person. Hot water is provided, but meals are ignored.

If you want to eat, it depends on what you want to eat.

Is it steamed yellow steamed buns, or is it made of glutinous rice balls?It depends on what you eat, and then we will talk about the price in detail. Uncle, what do you think? "

Luo Xuan put down his luggage.

Then he tapped the little boy lightly, "Boy, you are dishonest."

The little boy rubbed his head, "Why am I being dishonest? The guest house sees a lot of people, so the price has increased. It's more expensive than mine!"

previously,

The little boy was worried about meeting people from the anti-selfishness squad, and said that if they gave them 3 yuan, the little boy's family would have to pay.

From what he said, Luo Xuan could already hear it: the little boy went out to solicit customers to stay in his house in private.

Their psychological price will not exceed 1 yuan per person!

on the other hand:

If it exceeds 1 yuan per person, even if he encounters an anti-private team, the little boy is forced to hand over 3 yuan to the other party.

His family still makes money, so they won't lose money
Wait until Luo Xuan and Peng Yong put their luggage away.

Sitting on the edge of the Kang,
Luo Xuan said to the little boy, "Now you can honestly quote a price. Don't treat us like people who don't know the market."

"1 yuan 2?"

The little boy tentatively said, "In our house, you can sleep well.

If you are in a guest house, you can only sit on it for one night. "

Luo Xuan stared at him, "We'll talk after we think about it."

The little boy blushed, "Uncle, how about you make an offer?"

Luo Xuan glared at him, "Usually, when the county is full of tourists, you will pay me how much you pay for going out to solicit customers.

Don't make me go out, find someone from the anti-private team. "

"Don't don't."

The old woman said, "It's not easy for you to go out. My mother died early. His father went to the coal mine to suffer, and he only came back for a few days during the New Year's Eve all year round."

"How about it, it's still the market price, 8 cents per person."

The old woman is actually young, she is only in her early 40s this year.

But already has a 7-year-old grandson and a 6-year-old granddaughter.

I just heard her say, "The kang in our outhouse can usually sleep 5 people. Tonight, I guess I can't sleep enough."
Our family charges you 8 cents per person, and let you sleep stretched out, comrade, do you think it will work? "

"Row."

Luo Xuan took out the money, "Look, Auntie, can you get us something to eat? I'll give you extra money."

The woman carefully accepted the 2 yuan and 4 cents that Luo Xuan handed over.

Then ask what to eat?
Luo Xuan thought for a while, "Steamed rice, stewed mutton. Get Hengshan mutton."

"what?!"

The woman and the little boy exclaimed in unison, "These are the things that the officials in the city can only afford occasionally. How can we afford them?"

Luo Xuan took out 10 yuan and handed it over.

"Go and think of a way."

The old woman took the money, "It's just that the E family hasn't bought rice or mutton for a few years, so it's a little bit expensive."

Luo Xuan asked her, is the money enough?
The woman nodded, "It's definitely enough. It's just how much money will be spent in the end, I can't figure it out."

Luo Xuan smiled slightly, "There's no need to give change, you can just spend according to the money. We don't eat much, and the rice and meat left in the end belong to your family."

According to the woman's thoughts:
She was going to ask them, for example, what to eat.

If the cost is 2 yuan, then the woman will ask Luo Xuan to give her 5 cents for the charcoal fire and hard work.

Unexpected!
Now that Luo Xuan made a move, he actually gave her 10 yuan!

A full 10 yuan!
The price of polished rice at the grain station is 1 cents per catty.

Even if the woman didn't use her own food book or food stamps, she went directly to the frog market to buy them.

Or move it to the neighbor's house, and the rice will not exceed 3 cents per catty.

For the remaining money, go to the frog market to buy local mutton, which costs 9 cents per catty.

If you go to the food station store, you can buy mutton with meat tickets, and it only costs 5 cents per catty.

Even if Luo Xuan and the others are good eaters, they have a lot of appetite.

The old woman went to buy rice and mutton, and calculated according to the highest price: she bought 5 catties of rice and 5 catties of mutton.

It should be enough for them to have a good meal, right?
Calculate like this,
The total money spent was actually only 6 yuan and 5 cents.

For this meal, the old woman can earn 3 yuan 4 cents!

not to mention,
The old lady also knows that the people from the south of the family do not eat as much as the Saibei people.

Three people eat 3 catties of mutton, which can be eaten in one meal.

This is not surprising.

But with 5 catties of rice, there is still a little left, right?

If calculated in this way,
For this meal, the money earned by the old woman will not be less than 4 yuan
Ah, it's beautiful just thinking about it!
The woman couldn't help but put on her ragged jacket and went out to collect rice and mutton.

The little boy hurried to light the fire.

This kind of kang in Saibei is connected with the stove.

That is to say, when cooking, the fireworks in the chimney will go along the aisle in the kang road.

Thus,
When the rice is cooked, the kang is also heated up.

"Uncle, just now I asked you for 1 yuan and 2 cents for the accommodation, but you didn't even give me 8 cents."

The little boy was boiling water,
He asked Luo Xuan, "But when you paid my mother for food, why were you so generous?"

Luo Xuan smiled and said, "You boy, I heard from me earlier that if you meet someone who opposes selfishness, I will pay the 3 yuan for you.

You little guy, seeing that I am generous, you started to raise the price for me. "

Luo Xuan said, "The reason why I don't want to give so much money is because I don't want to get used to your problem!"

"And let your mother go to buy rice and mutton, and I'm willing to give her some more money, that's out of love.

I don't want you to charge me more for my accommodation. This is my duty. "

After listening, the little boy sat on the stool and thought about it.

at this time
There was only a light knock at the courtyard door.

Then the kiln door was pushed open, and a heartbreakingly thin girl with snot and tears on her face, who had been frozen into ice, walked in first.
