ordinary human life

"Huh? This is?"

Xiao Zhang glanced at He Sihai and Tao Zi behind Deng Dazhong, with a puzzled look on his face.

"This is my little brother He Sihai and his younger sister Taozi."

"This is the owner of the recycling station, Zhang Haitao."

Deng Dazhong introduced the two parties.

Then he pulled Zhang Haitao aside and muttered softly.

He Sihai tactfully did not interrupt, but carefully looked at the waste recycling station and stood up.

To him, this recycle bin is a treasure.

After a while, Zhang Haitao came over.

"Xiao He, right? Uncle Deng has already told me about you. If it were an ordinary person, I would definitely not agree. After all, I am a recycling bin, so there is no reason to sell it out.

But since it was introduced by Uncle Deng, then I must help. I will make an exception. If you come to see what you want in the future, just take it and sell it to you at the recovery price. If you can’t sell it, then sell it to me. Do you think this is feasible? "

"Okay, okay." He Sihai agreed hastily.

This is a good thing. Sell it at the scrap price, and return it if you can't sell it. This is a sure profit.

I didn't expect Deng Dazhong to lose face so much.

"Thank you Uncle Zhang, thank you Uncle Deng." He Sihai hurriedly expressed his thanks.

"Work hard and take good care of my sister." Deng Dazhong urged earnestly.

"Since you are Uncle Deng's friend, you don't have to be polite. Go and see for yourself, and take whatever you like." Zhang Haitao said with a smile.

"thanks, thanks."

With a grateful expression, He Sihai took Tao Zi and bowed to the two of them.

Then go straight to the direction of the pile of waste paper products.

Looking at the back of He Sihai pulling Taozi away.

Zhang Haitao turned to Deng Dazhong and said, "Uncle Deng, this kid looks honest, but he is actually shrewd. Don't be fooled."

"Hey, I'm an old man, what's the point of lying, I think he has a child with him, and he really has difficulties, so please help if you can." Deng Dazhong said quietly.

"Okay, since Uncle Deng said so, I won't say much." Zhang Haitao said.

"Not much to say, just weigh the waste in my car, I have to rush home to cook dinner."

"Uncle Deng, don't go back tonight, just eat at my place. I bought some beef at noon, and there is still a lot left. Let's have a drink in the evening." Zhang Haitao said while moving Deng Dazhong's tricycle down.

"This is not good." Deng Dazhong hesitated when he heard the words.

"What's so bad about that? Uncle Deng, you're going to be born for saying that." Zhang Haitao pretended to be angry.

"Okay, I'll stay and have a drink with your kid that night."

……

"Wow, so many paintings."

Tao Zi looked at the colorful picture book in front of her with excitement.

Nowadays people pay more and more attention to education.

So when the child was very young, he would buy a bunch of picture books.

But in fact, many of them went into the recycling bin without being turned over.

"Pick out which one you like."

He Sihai wasn't idle either, and started flipping through the pile of waste.

Taozi also pouted and pulled her little butt.

"Don't turn over the bottom one, just take the top one, be careful not to prick your hands." He Sihai warned.

He put on the gloves himself.

The kind of gloves on the construction site have glue on the palm, so they are very thick and don't worry about being pricked.

He Sihai originally wanted to get some old books and objects to sell.

Unexpectedly, after rummaging, there are still many calligraphy and paintings, copper coins, accessories, treasured souvenir books and so on.

Although He Sihai doesn't know calligraphy, painting and antiques.

But it doesn't matter, as long as the customer understands, it doesn't matter if he doesn't understand, He Sihai will say that he understands, and he is very confident in this.

So it was picked out.

After a while, it accumulated a lot.

……

Zhang Haitao helped Deng Dazhong finish weighing the waste, and glanced in He Sihai's direction.

Then he said to Deng Dazhong with a look of surprise: "Uncle Deng, this kid can do it."

It turned out that at this time He Sihai was no longer rummaging in the waste paper area, but picking in the unsorted area.

While he was pulling, the things he didn't like would not be thrown back, but piled aside.

Taozi helps to transport to the sorting area one after another.

Zhang Haitao was also surprised here, this kid knows how to behave.

The biggest job of the waste station is sorting. Zhang Haitao's waste station didn't hire anyone, just him and his wife. Sometimes Deng Dazhong would come to help.

Work is actually not easy. After a day, my back hurts.

Deng Dazhong was quite proud when he heard the words, "That's right, old man, I have poor eyesight. When you were young, I saw that you were promising. Look, you are now your own boss."

"Uncle Deng, I'm just a scrap collector, what kind of boss, and when you were young, you scolded me and Qiangzi a lot."

Deng Dazhong was stunned upon hearing this, and then fell silent.

Sitting aside, he picked up the mineral water bottle and took a big sip.

Then he looked at He Sihai, who was picking at the garbage dump, and said, "If Qiangzi is still there, my grandson will be as old as him, right?"

"Uncle Deng."

"Okay, it's okay, it's been so many years, let's have a good drink in the evening." Deng Dazhong said with a smile.

"For sure, when I let Karen come back, I'll bring some of your favorite pork head meat."

"That's a good relationship." Deng Dazhong said happily.

Chapter 23 Battery Cars

"A lot of things, quite complicated." Zhang Haitao glanced at the things in front of him, a little surprised.

He thought why Sihai only picked out some old books and set up a second-hand bookstall or something.

But now there is almost everything here, toys, radios, daily necessities, etc., but they are all old things.

"This is an old thing, I'm selling it for my feelings." He Sihai said with a simple smile.

"Yeah, I haven't seen this thing for many years."

Zhang Haitao picked up an old-fashioned kerosene lamp, but he really didn't care about it usually.

Hearing what He Sihai said now, memories rushed to his face.

But this is just a flash in his mind, and he is not a sentimental person himself.

So he put down the kerosene lamp in his hand and said, "I'll weigh paper and metal products for you. As for the others, I won't charge you."

"Thank you, Uncle Zhang." He Sihai hurriedly thanked him.

"You're welcome, I mainly see that you are not bad." Zhang Haitao said while getting on the scale.

"Xiao He, with so many things, where do you live and how do you plan to get them back? You can't get a car here." Deng Dazhong suddenly said beside him.

"I live in Erli Street City Village, but it doesn't matter, I can carry it with a big bag." He Sihai said nonchalantly.

What he lacks most is strength.

"But you still have a doll with you."

Deng Dazhong looked at Taozi who was squatting beside him and flipping through picture books.

"It's okay, I'll hold her." He Sihai said.

"It's so far away, you have to carry something on your back and hold a doll in your arms, can you do it?" Deng Dazhong was surprised.

"I'm young and I don't lack strength." He Sihai smiled.

"Boy, you are really in good health."

He discovered it when he came by bike just now.

"Of course, working on a construction site requires strength."

"It's 113 yuan in total, you can give me a hundred."

The paper products don't cost much, mainly the scrap copper and rotten iron that He Sihai chooses, and the price is not cheap.

"Okay, thank you, Uncle Zhang." He Sihai hurriedly took out 100 yuan and handed it over.

"This pile of things is not light." Zhang Haitao said, he also heard what Deng Dazhong said just now.

Although it's only about a hundred dollars, it's mainly because it's cheap.

"It's okay, Uncle Zhang, I will find a way to get it back."

"Come with me." Zhang Hai waved to him, and then walked towards the back of the house.

He Sihai hurriedly pulled Taozi to follow.

Deng Dazhong was a little stunned, thought for a while and followed.

I saw that the back of the house was full of things, but it was covered with a rain cloth.

Zhang Haitao lifted the rain cloth.

He Sihai was surprised to find that there were not only bicycles, battery cars, but also motorcycles inside.

"These are all broken and collected. I have nothing to do to save them up again. Except for the old ones, they are not much different from the new ones. You pick one, and I will sell it to you at a lower price." Zhang Haitao said.

"Really, how much is this battery car?"

He Sihai pointed to a battery car that was probably new.

In fact, he has wanted to buy one for a long time, but he has never been willing to part with it. A second-hand one costs at least six or seven hundred.

No matter how cheap it is, either there is a problem that it cannot be ridden, or it is stolen.

"I will give you 100 yuan, but the battery is old. If you want to replace it with a new one, you can add another [-] yuan." Zhang Haitao said.

"So cheap?" He Sihai was shocked.

It is inevitable that there will be some doubts in my heart.

"For Uncle Deng's sake, I don't make money from you, but only charge a battery. If you have any problems, you can come to me and I will give you a warranty." Zhang Haitao glanced at Deng Dazhong who followed behind and said.

"You boy, thank you Xiao Zhang. Xiao Zhang used to do repairs, so he likes to tinker with these things. The quality is guaranteed to be fine for you." Zhang Dazhong said with a smile after listening.

He Sihai thought about it and decided to buy one without hesitation.

And he decided to change a new battery. Although 300 yuan is not a small amount for him, it is actually not much.

And he really needs it. In the past, he was alone and could go anywhere with a pair of legs, but now that he has Taozi, it is much more convenient to have a battery car.

"That's fine, thank you Uncle Zhang, please help me choose one and replace it with a new battery." He Sihai said.

"You kid." Zhang Haitao shook his head amusedly.

Because He Sihai said this, the subtext was to help him get one of good quality.

"Didn't you like this one? Just this one. I thought it had a new shell and the best accessories inside. It was originally intended to be sold to Cai Ziming." Zhang Haitao said.

He Sihai didn't know who Cai Ziming he was talking about.
