The old man was very happy.

Riding his bicycle alone to his grandpa's house, Chen Feng only dared to talk to the old man, because the old man was obviously courageous and did not treat him as a child.

If it were his parents, don't even think about it.

But the old man had full confidence in him.

Of course, this was also caused by the different times.

During the Republic of China, children aged seven or eight worked, and children aged thirteen or fourteen got married and took charge of the family, and they were under the pressure of life early.

Unlike now and in later generations, teenagers are in the happy period of windy season, rainy season, and flower season.

'Don't be afraid of a flat tire! '

Riding a bicycle to Wangfujing, I found a state-owned store that specializes in selling wheels and repairing bicycles.

"Uncle, give me three Forever brand wheels."

The salesman was a man, sitting on a stool reading a novel, and he was a little indifferent. He said without raising his head: "New ones are 28, and old ones are 16."

"Give me two new ones."

Chen Feng counted the money in his pocket and took out 56 yuan.

Since he had a space, he decided to put one more as a backup.

It's better to be safe than sorry.

If luck fluctuates and two of them break halfway, they can be replaced in time.

The salesman looked up and counted the money twice, fearing that he would make a mistake.

It's quite troublesome to count one or two dimes.

"Okay, take it yourself."

Chen Feng went up and randomly selected two brand new wheels, put them on the back seat of the car, tied them with ropes, and moved to a deserted place to put them directly into the space.

Then he went to get a letter of introduction.

In those days, there were no ID cards, and official control was very strict, so a letter of introduction was required (equivalent to an ID card).

Farmers who want to go to the county town must first get a letter of introduction from the village brigade, then go to the commune to get a stamp, and finally go to the county to do business.

Conversely, if the county goes to the countryside, they also need to get relevant certificates.

The Chen family went to Zhoujiagou, Tianjin before, because Chen Jianguo had connections and asked the police station and the street office to get stamps.

Without a letter of introduction, once they go out and are suspected by the militia in the village halfway, they can be directly sent to the public security bureau.

Normally, Chen Feng does not have a work permit, a letter of introduction, etc., and frequently goes to the countryside and the mountains privately. If he is caught, he can only admit his bad luck and wait for his family to take him back.

In order to avoid trouble, he still went through the process.

The Chen family has connections, whether it is the police station or the street office, the staff directly gave him a letter of introduction without asking.

Before leaving, the staff of the police station and the street office privately thanked him for the two pheasant eggs he sent.

"Xiao Feng, wait a minute."

When he left the street office, Deputy Director Wang caught up with him from behind.

"What's the matter, Director Wang?"

"What Director? Don't call me that. Call me Auntie Wang."

"Auntie, I'm not calling you that. My grandfather said that you will become a director sooner or later."

"Haha, I'm thanking your grandfather for his good words. But you're not one yet, so you can't call me that."

Deputy Director Wang asked, "I heard that you came to get a letter of introduction to Tianjin. Are you going to go fishing there?"

"Yes!"

Chen Feng knew what she was thinking, but he deliberately asked, "Auntie, do you have anything for me to bring to your relatives there?"

"I don't have any relatives there. I just want to ask if you can sell some of the fish you brought back to the street office."

The deputy director of the street office looked around and whispered, "Auntie, please help me. I have a friend who likes to eat stonehead fish. Please ask the fishermen if they have any. If they do, please help me change one."

She took out a dozen national food coupons and wanted to give them to Chen Feng.

National food coupons are rare because they are used throughout the country. The price in the ghost market is several times that of local food coupons.

But Chen Feng didn't want to buy food.

Now the rice, sweet potatoes and potatoes of the Chen family were all "taken" back by him in the name of exchange, so there was no shortage of food.

"Auntie, I have a ticket. How about this? I'll come to exchange with you when I find a fish."

"Okay, you have to keep the fish well. It's best to keep it alive. If it's dead, it's best to die on the same day. I want a fresh one." Deputy Director Wang added.

Are you pickier than me?

"Don't worry, it's guaranteed to be fresh."

Chen Feng smiled and nodded, not knowing that once the stonehead fish leaves the sea and leaves the water pressure, its blood vessels will rupture and die soon.

In other words, there is no living stonehead fish after it is caught.

Deputy Director Wang naturally didn't know this.

Stonehead fish, also known as yellow croaker, is now abundant in the sea, but Sijiu City is not on the seashore, so if you want to eat live fish, you need some skills.

There is an ear in the future

The names that are familiar to everyone are large yellow croaker and small yellow croaker!

The upper part of the body is yellowish brown, the lower part is golden yellow, and there are many luminous small particles on the body. Because it can make a sound when it comes out of the water, glows at night, and has a stone like a chess piece in its head, it is called stonehead fish.

Stonehead fish is a traditional economic fish in China. It was once known as China's four major seafoods along with hairtail and squid, and is found in the waters of the western Pacific Ocean.

Yellow croakers are not big. The largest wild large yellow croaker caught is only more than 7 kilograms.

Now there are a lot of fish caught in my country's waters. Large yellow croakers are still popular, but small yellow croakers are almost ignored.

The annual output of Zhoushan Fishery once reached 30,000 tons of small yellow croakers. In the 1970s, a kilogram of small yellow croakers cost only 20 cents.

When the economy improved in the 1980s and 1990s, the nutritional value of small yellow croakers was discovered. Coupled with the declining wild catch, the price of wild yellow croakers increased a thousand times.

In 1985, the price of large yellow croaker was raised to 210 yuan. After 2000, wild large yellow croaker cost tens of thousands of yuan per kilogram, and small yellow croaker cost hundreds of yuan per kilogram.

After saying goodbye to the street office, Chen Feng rode his bicycle directly, leaving Sijiucheng all the way and rushing to Tianjin at high speed.

Tired at noon, he picked up some dry firewood in the wild woods by the roadside, ignited the coal balls, and roasted a chicken.

"Stop the car."

Chen Feng looked at the roadside, and the bushes and trees blocked his view.

But the sound of the truck engine and the previous singing of "By the Butterfly Spring" showed that a dozen people were passing by here in a truck.

"By the Butterfly Spring" is the movie episode of "Five Golden Flowers", which has been popular all over the country recently.

Chen Hao learned this song in school, and he often showed it off at home, creating noise pollution with Chen Li.

In less than a minute, a woman in military uniform entered the woods from the roadside, looked around, and walked a few steps inside, only ten meters away from where Chen Feng was.

However, Chen Feng was sitting on the grass, hidden by the bushes, so the other party didn't see him.

Similarly, Chen Feng couldn't see the other party's face clearly, and could only tell the gender from their conversation.

"It can't be——"

Chen Feng hesitated for a few seconds and thought it would be better to stand up.

Men can be romantic, but they can't be vulgar!

"Ahem!"

The sudden cough startled the other party.

"Who!"

"Hello, I'm roasting pheasants here, so how about you change places?"

Chen Feng raised the roasted chicken in his hand, wanting to prove his words, and his eyes stayed on her hand.

It was a gun!

Then he looked at her face, with short hair to her shoulders, delicate features, clear contours, eyebrows as light as smoke, and red lips reflecting the sun. It was simply a masterpiece carefully carved by God. .

Another beauty!

Old man, I want to grow up!
