fish street dad

"Little young man, I think you are also a water demon who just came ashore, right? It's normal if you don't know how to build a stove. In this way, the old man Hu who boils water in my shop can build a pot stove. If you want, give him twenty A copper plate, go back and dig up the yellow mud, I will ask him to build it for you in the afternoon, and he will be free in the afternoon." The boss probably thought that Bai Chunsheng was a big customer, and probably wanted to give the big iron pot in the store to him. After selling it, he sincerely suggested.

"Then I would like to thank the boss. In this way, I will take back the things I bought first, and then I will dig some yellow mud and go home. After an hour, I will ask Mr. Hu to help me build a pot and stove. I live behind the house on the street. The house with the old locust tree is the last room on the right hand side of the entrance.”

Bai Chunsheng spent almost one-third of the copper coins he exchanged at the grocery store. The most expensive thing was the iron pot, and then there were some necessities for daily life, such as brooms, gourd ladles, bamboo chopsticks, soup I wanted to buy salt, but I was told that I had to go to another official store to buy salt, and that no matter whether I bought salt or an iron pot, I had to register with my real name in the store.

Because he couldn't produce the household registration booklet when registering, the boss was embarrassed, and temporarily withheld the pot from Bai Chunsheng.

"Young man, I didn't expect that you didn't have a household registration certificate. This is not acceptable! You must have a household registration certificate to sell things like salt and iron."

Bai Chunsheng was dumbfounded.

Unexpectedly, the two yuan a pack of unlimited salt in the canteen downstairs in later generations has become a state-controlled commodity here?Do you have to have a household registration booklet to buy?

God knows where he can get a household registration booklet as a monster?

Bai Chunsheng looked expectantly at the kind boss.

Grocery store owner: "..."

In order to sell the pot, the shop owner also worked hard!

"How about this, I'll have someone take you to the dock office. I have an acquaintance who is in charge there. You can save hundreds of copper coins by asking them to do the household registration booklet instead of going directly to the Yamen." , The shop owner called his youngest son out from behind, and asked him to take Bai Chunsheng to the wharf public house to find his "cousin" and help the customer get a household registration booklet.

Bai Chunsheng was also ashamed to let the child go for nothing, so he hurriedly bought a bag of candy from the grocery store and handed it to the child. The child took the candy with a smile, and talked to Bai Chunsheng about "uncle" while eating.

It was only then that Bai Chunsheng realized that it turned out that the first time he went ashore to pay the "protection fee" was the public house, and the role of the child at the pier was really great.

To put it simply, this public housing is similar to their community service center in later generations. Generally, trivial matters related to the public can be handled there. Because the relationship between the public housing and the yamen is good, ordinary people like to go there, although there is a procedure , but it is cheaper and worry-free than going directly to the yamen, and the yamen is happy to leave these trivial matters to the public house.

This time, Bai Chunsheng was lucky. He didn't meet the vicious Wang Dalang. Perhaps it was because the child who brought him had a sweet mouth. After exchanging greetings with the child, the "cousin" asked Bai Chunsheng to take out three hundred. Tongban, after roughly asking about Bai Chunsheng's birthplace and real body, he took out a household registration booklet with a dark blue cover from the cabinet, filled out the information for him, and agreed that he could come to pick up the household registration booklet by this time tomorrow afternoon.

This is already a very fast speed.

Bai Chunsheng knew that there was no other way. Fortunately, the pot could be installed after the stove was built tomorrow, and the salt could not be bought for the time being. At worst, he would buy it outside to make do with a few meals. Thanks to the manager, he quietly stuffed twenty After the copper coins passed, Bai Chunsheng followed the child back to the grocery store, bought all the leftovers, and borrowed the store's donkey cart to take them back.

When I got home and put away my things, I remembered that I still had a lot of things to buy at home, so I decided not to rush to return the donkey cart. From time to time, I bought a few packets of maltose from the grocery store, and gave one packet to the store as a thank-you gift for borrowing a car. After returning home, I went door-to-door to the neighbors in the yard.

After the matter of borrowing the bucket last night, Bai Chunsheng understood a truth. This is not the world he used to live in. If you don’t want to cook, you can take out food, and if you don’t want to go out, you can shop online. If you want to live well here, you can rely on him alone. People can't do it.Just like last night, if Shang Qiulu hadn't lent him a bucket and fetched water for him, he might not even have had to drink his saliva last night.

After being busy for a long time, Bai Chunsheng didn't care about eating. On the way back from the second trip, he hurriedly bought two sesame seed cakes at the side of the road and put them in his arms. It's blocked, I can't wait to plunge into the water to have a good time!

It's a pity that he has already made an appointment with someone to build the stove, and now he has to dig the mud immediately. He is no stranger to this job. As an upstart with money and leisure, Bai Chunsheng doesn't have any bad habits, but he likes it very much. Do some handicrafts, enroll in classes, play pottery, do woodworking, and even learn baking for a while, because I heard from friends that there are so many beauties in the baking class!

It wasn’t until the class started that he realized that what Jiyou said was true. There are indeed many beauties in the baking class, but most of them are married... unmarried people buy desserts for their boyfriends, who would do it themselves? ?There are only married housewives who spend money to learn how to bake and make healthy desserts without additives in order to feed their children a healthy diet.

The yellow mud is easy to find. After leaving the town, there are obviously a few potholes that have been dug by the river beach. From the cross-sectional view, it is the yellow mud commonly used by ordinary people to build walls and stoves. This kind of mud is more viscous and plastic than Ordinary mud is good, but it takes a lot of effort to dig it out. Fortunately, Bai Chunsheng doesn't need much, he just needs to dig enough mud for the stove.He borrowed a wooden shovel specially for digging mud from the grocery store, and picked out two baskets full, and two trips back and forth were almost enough.I didn't feel it when I picked it, but now I relax, I suddenly feel a burning pain in the shoulder position, no need to look, the skin must be broken.

Although this body is strong, but the skin is very delicate, probably the skin of the water monster is relatively delicate, right?It turns red when rubbed.He carried the dozens of kilograms of mud on his shoulders. Although there was a shoulder pole to help share the pressure, his skin was rubbed uncomfortably. There were wet things sticking to his clothes, and nine out of ten the skin was bleeding.

However, before he had time to enter the house to take off his clothes and check, the old man Hu who promised to help him build the stove came.

Old man Hu was wearing a shabby old sheepskin jacket, the outer layer of which was already worn out. His gray hair was casually tied into a bun on his head, pinned by two tree branches, his eyes were drooping, and he spoke in his voice. There was a heavy twilight: "Where is the stove?"

"Oh! Here! I've dug up all the yellow mud, do you think it's enough? I'll dig it up if it's not enough!"

Old man Hu raised his eyelids to look at the pile of mud, slowly put down a sack on his shoulders, took out tools from it, and ordered: "Go and pull some hay, there is only mud, the stove It doesn't fit well."

Bai Chunsheng hurriedly took a sack and went out to collect hay.

You can't find hay in the town, so you have to go outside the town to find it. When you leave the town, go to the place where the mud was dug just now. There is a lot of hay by the river. Pulling out the weeds a little bit by hand, it is inevitable that the palms of the hands will be burned and painful.

Resisting the pain caused by the withered grass on his palms, Bai Chunsheng quickly pulled out half a bag of hay, his legs and feet were numb from squatting, his head was dizzy from the sun, he simply dropped the sack, sat down on the ground, and stared blankly. Staring blankly at the surging river.

He didn't know why he suddenly came to this strange world. Maybe it was just a dream. When he woke up, he was still sleeping on the big comfortable bed in his single apartment. All kinds of snacks, if you don’t want to go out, you can order takeaway, and if your mother comes to inspect, you can ask a part-time worker to make a surprise cleaning...

I used to take everything for granted in life, but now it seems that it is so precious!

Sudden tears blurred his vision.

He misses home, misses his mother who dislikes him but actually thinks about him everywhere, misses his father who is obsessed with fishing but always leaves the best fish he catches for his son to eat, misses him complaining about his mess The grandma who spends money, but always gives him pocket money desperately when he leaves home...

In a blur, he seemed to see his father sitting on the shore fishing with a serious face... No!That's not dad!That is--

Wang Dalang!

Bai Chunsheng didn't know what was wrong with him, but when he saw Wang Dalang, he felt a little flustered.He was well-behaved and sweet-mouthed since he was a child, and none of his relatives and friends disliked him. Therefore, he was particularly impressed by Wang Dalang who exuded strong malice towards him when they first met, ahem~ He has never met him before. How could he not be moved by his well-behaved and harmless appearance~

Wang Dalang was squatting on the river beach, picking fish and shrimp from a pile of aquatic plants.

Bai Chunsheng knew that these aquatic plants were all fallen from fishing nets by fishermen.

There are many fishing boats on the Qingshui River. These fishing boats pull their nets along the river every day to catch fish. When a net is pulled up, the big and valuable fish are picked out, and the aquatic plants and sundries in the net are dumped into the river at will. Some were washed to the bank along the river, and slapped on the bank in groups, like a fluffy hedgehog.

There was a small bamboo basket at Wang Dalang's feet. He fished out the aquatic plants and carefully pushed them aside with branches. When he saw the bigger edible fish and shrimps, he picked them out and threw them into the bamboo basket, and threw the smaller ones back into the water. .

"I didn't expect this villain to be a caring person." Bai Chunsheng murmured in his heart.
