Chapter 62 Arrive at Linyang

ps: Crazy, when I updated, I forgot to click on the release page, and I have been wondering why I updated today but no one paid attention to me...

……………………

The two of them collected 1,600 yuan from Datou Sun and Widow Wang alone, which is a huge sum of money in this era.

Moreover, in a few days, they will have to trade grain with Xinglin Village, and there will be a fortune at that time.

Although I don't know how much food the whole village can ask for, but I think the amount will not be small, otherwise the old village chief will not be able to say anything and will not send the letter early the next morning.

There must be many people in the village who want to buy food.

Only the more families in Xinglin Village need food, the greater the workload of statistics and the slower the village chief's letter.

With the 1,600 yuan and the money to sell food in the future, the two of them will not be short of money in recent years. Gu Shinian was not willing to take risks, nor did he look down on these small transactions that came together on the road, the details and the safety of them.

Due to the family education, Yunshang also does not have much desire for money. He will not be like many people, whose eyelids are so shallow that he will not miss any opportunity to make money.

Even at this time, there were more than a dozen identical military bags piled up in her space.

Neither of them were moved, and the man was inevitably a little frustrated, and carefully looked at the clothes of the two again.

This look shows the problem.

The little girl was wearing a red and white fine plaid cotton jacket, the color was not conspicuous, but upon closer inspection, the fabric was slippery than the best muslin on the market. He also wore leather shoes for children that were rarely seen on the market, with fur linings. It was estimated that they were either imported from the Friendship Store or made by a craftsman at home.

These two children look like they are in a good family!

I just don't know why such a good family background, why would I take a hard seat car, and there are no adults around...

Gu Shinian didn't ignore the person's scrutinizing eyes, stretched out his hand and pressed Yunshang into his arms, took out a folded square blanket from the military bag, put it on Yunshang, and looked straight at the other party and said:

"Comrade, do you have anything else to do?"

Seeing Gu Shinian pretending to be unwilling to talk more, the man smiled and lowered his voice again:

"Little comrade, my surname is He, you can call me Uncle He. That's right, my boy is going to junior high school this year, and seeing someone else carrying an old military bag makes his eyes green with greed.

I'm not thinking that you have two military bags, I just want to exchange one with you. If you don't want to, Uncle He can't force you. If you want, I can pay for the ticket, or if you have other needs , you can also mention to me..."

Yun Chang scratched Gu Shinian's waist, and when he lowered his head, he silently said two words: "Seed."

Gu Shinian reacted instantly, raised his head and asked, "Do you have any seeds?"

"what?"

The man was stunned, only to hear Gu Shinian ask again, "Do you have any seeds? Grain, vegetables, beans, any kind of seeds will do. If there are, I will exchange them for you with a military bag."

"Little comrade, do you know me?"

Seeing the surprised look on Gu Shinian's face, the man stretched his brows and smiled for the first time, "Little comrade, I'm working at the seed station, you're too accurate in looking at people."

This time, not only Gu Shinian was stunned, but even Yun Chang was stunned.

She just thought that this man was talking too much, and wanted to dismiss him casually, but she didn't expect to ask the right person.

"Uncle He, you said you work at the seed station?"

Gu Shinian was pleasantly surprised, and even changed his name, but he knew better than anyone how much Yun Chang wanted to find food seeds.

After some conversation, the two knew that this person was called He Weiyang. He was the head of a seed station in an area below Anxi Province. This time, he went to Linyang City to collect debts for their seed station.

Yes, it is debt collection.

Two months ago, Linyang Seed Station, through the leadership, urgently seconded a batch of wheat seeds from their Seed Station, and he has not paid them back. He just went to ask for the money for these wheat seeds.

Knowing that Yunshang and Gu Shinian were also going to Linyang, He Weiyang knew that there was hope for the replacement of military bags:

"Little comrade, now the seed station can only find the leftover wheat seeds that were planted in October. If you need them, I will find a way to help you find a few kilograms. How about exchanging the wheat seeds for a military bag for you?"

Gu Shinian thought for a while, nodded in response, made an appointment with He Weiyang at the location of the transaction in Linyang City, stopped talking, and grabbed Yunshang to let her rest in his arms.

And He Weiyang didn't return to his seat, so he sat on the seat opposite the two in the posture of a protector for one night.

...

The train arrived in Linyang at ten o'clock in the morning. After separating from He Weiyang, Gu Shinian took Yunshang to a guest house near the train station and walked in.

Entering the main entrance of the guest house is the counter. Behind it sits a girl with big braids. She is very curious when she sees a half-year-old child leading the little girl in.

Especially when the little girl came in with a piece of fruit candy in her mouth, when she saw her checking the letter of introduction, she quickly peeled the candy and stuffed it into her hand, and smiled sweetly and praised her for her beauty. The waiter was only amused. .

This little girl is so cute!

"Little sister, who are you here to see a doctor?"

Yun Chang quickly patted her belly, "Here, I'm not comfortable here, it will hurt."

Anyway, it's not up to her to decide whether her stomach hurts or not, as long as she can fool people.

Gu Shinian's face turned dark listening next to him, and the girl started running the train with her mouth full again. She wanted to say that he was not feeling well.

The waiter has been working in the hostel for a long time, and he has seen more than ten-year-old children supporting a family business, but he is not suspicious.

"Little comrade, we have a Datong shop on the first floor. It's cheap, but the train station is crowded with people. It's not clean, and I can't sleep well at night. There is a double room on the second floor, which is cleaner and cleaner than the Datong shop. How many floors do you and your sister live on..."

"Live on the second floor."

The waiter's reminder was so obvious that Gu Shinian couldn't hear it, and besides, he didn't plan to live in Datong.

"Then 206, here's the key,"

The waiter said and gave Gu Shinian a key with a wooden sign the size of a finger on it, with the number 206 written on it.

Yunshang was staying in a guest house for the first time. Seeing that the wooden canopy bed in the room was very novel, when Gu Shinian changed the sheets, he quickly climbed up and rolled around.

"Second brother Gu, do you think Uncle Yun has arrived home? I don't know if grandpa will beat him."

"No, just say a few words to him, and wait until you receive the telegram."

The two of them sat on the train all night and felt tired long ago. After tidying up the room and washing in a hurry, I closed the door and entered the space together, preparing to take advantage of the time difference between the space and the outside to take a good rest.

At the same time, Yun Erchuan, who had been most spoken by Mr. Yun at the most, was holding his head and was about to be driven crazy.
