Era: Started from raising livestock in the mountains

Chapter 176 Bringing my wife to the city again

When he walked into the store, Wang Zhou was lighting a fire in the yard. When he saw Lin Heng, he quickly said hello: "Brother Lin."

"Is there nothing going on in the store recently?" Lin Heng asked with a smile.

Wang Zhou shook his head: "Everything is as usual, except that there have been a lot fewer people selling goods recently, which is far different from the previous month."

With that said, he went over and brought the ledger to Lin Heng for inspection.

Lin Heng took a look, and thanks to his good memory after rebirth, he quickly made a rough calculation.

Fortunately, the fluctuations this month will not be huge, and the profits will not be much different from last month.

But starting next month, it is expected to plummet.

"My fireplace? Didn't you bring it with you?" Lin Heng asked.

"No movement." Wang Zhou shook his head.

Lin Heng nodded: "Then it will probably be delivered after a few days."

He asked wholesaler Li Guoqiang to buy him a fireplace, and he probably didn't want to deliver it to him alone.

After chatting for a while, Lin Heng saw Uncle Gao coming out of the room wearing a coat and walked over quickly.

Uncle Gao looked at him and said with a smile: "Xiao Lin, the leopard meat you sent last time is really useful. After eating it, I feel a little hot when I sleep these days, and my limbs have become stronger."

Lin Heng smiled and said, "As long as it works, I'll take you to the mountains for hunting when it snows again."

Uncle Gao nodded: "Okay, I happen to have itchy hands. You can get a carriage to pick me up when the time comes."

After playing here for a long time, Lin Heng went to the town to have a look. Lin Heng returned home at noon.

"Come back so soon?" Xiulan asked curiously.

Lin Heng nodded: "I went down mainly to see if the fireplace came, but the fireplace still didn't come.

You and Xiaoxia will go to town with me tomorrow. Let's buy some clothes while doing errands. "

He has three things to do when he goes down tomorrow: sell musk; arrange for Li Guoqiang to come up in advance to pull a batch of wire switches and light bulbs; and buy a set of winter clothes for Xiulan Xiaoxia and himself.

In fact, he recently wanted to register an agricultural company, but when he thought about a lot of things, he had to wait for a while.

Moreover, registering a company is more troublesome than going through the procedures for a self-employed business owner.

"Okay." Xiulan nodded in agreement.

In the afternoon, Lin Heng went to see the forest musk deer. The male forest musk deer didn't eat and drank two mouthfuls of water.

Lin Heng looked at it and thought it was caused by stress, and he should be fine in two days.

The female forest musk deer stopped roaring after mating. I gave her a bowl of corn mush and ate it very deliciously.

When his father came back from Hongfeng Mountain, Lin Heng told them about the incident and asked them if they had anything they could help buy.

"No, just don't buy randomly." Father Lin shook his head.

Mother Lin also advised: "Your father and I both have clothes, so save the money. There will be plenty of places to spend money in the future."

"Okay." Lin Heng spread his hands.

Li Shiwei said: "Lin Heng, please bring me two hairpins and hairpins."

His eldest brother Lin Yue also handed him twenty yuan to buy three pairs of cotton shoes for his three sons from the city.

"No problem." Lin Heng nodded.

The carriage was packed up in advance, and early the next morning, Lin Heng took his wife and daughter down in the carriage.

When they arrived in the town, they called Wang Zhou together.

Wang Zhou smiled and took the whip in his hand and said, "Brother Lin, you sit back and take care of the baby, and I'll drive the car."

"Okay." Lin Heng nodded and did not refuse.

Sitting in the back of the car, holding Xiaoxia in her arms.

He arrived in the city in two hours. He first went to the buying station to sell musk.

The current price of musk is 30 yuan per gram. Here he sells 34 grams for 1,020 yuan.

He didn't ask Jin Fuqiang to sell musk. When Lin musk grew in scale, he would directly sign an order with a pharmaceutical company, and the price would be higher.

"Let's go shopping for clothes." After coming out, Lin Heng looked at Xiulan and Xiaoxia and said.

"Okay!" Xiulan nodded.

Xiaoxia came to the city for the first time. She hugged Xiulan a little timidly and looked at the passers-by with her big eyes.

The cities in the 1980s were also very shabby, but they were still novel to rural people.

After driving the carriage to deposit the money, he went to the mall and asked Wang Zhou to look at the carriage. Lin Heng took Xiulan and her daughter into the mall.

“Wander slowly, don’t be in a hurry.”

Lin Heng took Xiulan and Xiaoxia to stroll around slowly.

"This sweater is good. Why don't you buy it for only six yuan?" Lin Heng said looking at a high-collared white women's sweater.

"Okay." Xiulan nodded. She thought this sweater was pretty good.

When I agreed to buy clothes with Lin Heng, I didn't show any pretense.

Even in the largest shopping mall in the city, the variety of clothes is still a bit difficult for Lin Heng to see.

He was not satisfied with the clothes that Xiulan thought were very good. The colors and styles of clothes in this era were too monotonous.

When he walked to a children's clothing store, Lin Heng's eyes suddenly lit up. He pointed at a set of cotton-padded jackets and said, "This is good, so I bought it for Xiaoxia."

He was pointing to a Northeastern large-flowered jacket with a large number of peonies printed on it.

"Let her try it on!" Xiulan said with a smile. This dress is indeed festive enough.

This red floral cotton-padded jacket is not the modern kind of vertical buttons, but the ancient kind of slanted buttons that go from the chin to the right chest and go down from the right waist.

And the buttons are also the same cloth buttons as before, which gives it a retro feel.

After putting it on Xiaoxia, she felt inexplicably festive and looked very cute, like a walking elf.

"Not bad, I just bought this set." Xiulan nodded.

"How much is this, boss?" Lin Heng turned his head and asked.

"This set is 15 yuan, I can give her a small flower hat." The female boss said with a smile.

"Give her a pair of gloves." Lin Heng bargained.

After talking about the price, Lin Heng successfully got a pair of woolen gloves for his daughter.

Then he bought her a pair of cotton shoes, and then picked clothes for Xiulan.

Lin Heng first bought two pairs of flesh-colored silk, which made Xiulan roll her eyes.

"This wool coat is not bad, what do you think?"

After searching for a while, Lin Heng found a good medium-length khaki wool coat.

Xiulan looked at the price tag and persuaded: "Don't, or I'll buy a cotton jacket, this dress is a bit expensive."

This wool coat actually costs 60 yuan. It looks good, but it's too expensive. She can't bear to spend so much money.

"Try it on and see." Lin Heng said with a smile.

"It must be good-looking. Your wife is so beautiful that she looks good in anything." The female salesperson next to her said with a smile.

Lin Heng asked Xiulan to change into the clothes. After putting them on, she looked much prettier.

"I'll buy it if you give me a scarf." Lin Heng said with a big wave of his hand.

"Okay, I'll pack it for you." The saleswoman's eyes lit up. Such a generous customer is rare.

In comparison, an ordinary scarf is nothing.

After walking out with the clothes, Xiulan was happy and helpless. She hugged Lin Heng's arm and said, "This is my New Year's clothes. I won't buy it during the New Year."

Lin Heng smiled and nodded, "That's fine. I'll buy you a cheaper cotton jacket."

Xiulan couldn't get away from him, and she didn't want to hit him, so she could only buy another red cotton jacket with white plum blossoms printed on it.

This time it was a normal vertical buttoned cotton jacket, and Xiulan felt elegant when she wore it.

Then she bought two pairs of cotton trousers, one pure black and one with small red roses.

As for shoes, she bought a pair of black cotton shoes and a pair of brown mid-calf boots for Xiulan.

"Are you happy now?" Xiulan pinched Lin Heng's hand and said with pursed lips.

The shoes and clothes bought for her and her daughter cost a total of 138 yuan, which was too extravagant.

"You said you wouldn't buy anything for the New Year, so you must buy something better." Lin Heng smiled and spread his hands.

"Well, I'll pick a set for you next." Xiulan looked at him and said.

Lin Heng loves black, so Xiulan bought him a black military coat and a navy blue cotton jacket.

He bought two pairs of solid-colored cotton pants, and Lin Heng picked a pair of brown woolen big-toed shoes and a pair of ordinary cotton shoes.

His set cost 102 yuan, which was not very expensive. After all, they were all cotton clothes, so they were not expensive.

Finally, he bought a pair of cotton shoes for his parents and Caiyun, and bought all the things that the family asked him to bring.

"It's too expensive. I still like the place you took me to for the first time." Xiulan shook her head and said when she walked out of the mall.

"Just be happy, enjoy more and don't think too much." Lin Heng pulled her and said with a smile.

This is the most upscale place in Taibai City, so the clothes are naturally not cheap.

But he was not satisfied. If it were not for the inconvenient transportation, he really wanted to take them to Ancheng to buy clothes.

"Of course I am happy, but I feel sorry for the money." Xiulan said softly. How could she not be happy when her beloved bought clothes for her? She was so happy.

After handing the things to Wang Zhou, Lin Heng took them to the Central Hospital for a full-body check-up.

"It's not necessary. Xiaoxia and I are fine." Xiulan pursed her lips and said.

Lin Heng shook his head and was very determined about this: "That won't work. We will know after the check-up. I will take you and your parents to the check-up every year in the future."

Rural people generally have this mentality. They are afraid to go to the hospital because they feel sorry for the money. But sometimes it is easy to delay a minor illness into a major illness.

Lin Heng explained these reasons to Xiulan, and she understood them, and went to the hospital with Lin Heng.

After a round of examinations at the Central Hospital, the results showed that the three were very healthy, and Xiulan's blood sugar was slightly low.

Xiaoxia also fed her an oral polio vaccine, which can prevent the occurrence of polio very well.

After leaving the hospital, Xiaoxia was still lying in Lin Heng's arms, her eyes were red, and she had a candy in her mouth.

"Bad~" Xiaoxia said angrily, pointing in the direction of the hospital.

She was crying in pain when she had her blood drawn for a test just now.

"Yeah, they are bad~" Lin Heng agreed with a smile. She hadn't heard Xiaoxia cry so loudly for a long time, it was really a bit funny.

Xiulan looked at the watch and said, "What else do you have to do next? It's almost one o'clock."

Lin Heng thought for a while and said, "Let's go eat first, and then go shopping in the afternoon and leave."

They found Wang Zhou to meet up, and the four of them ate cold noodles and vegetable sandwiches together.

After eating, they found Li Chengguo in the afternoon. When he saw Lin Heng, he smiled and greeted him, "Boss Lin, why did you come down in person?"

"Take my wife and daughter to buy some things and go to the hospital for a check-up, and talk about something by the way." Lin Heng said casually.

"You two are a perfect match, and the girl is pretty, come in and sit down." Li Chengguo said with a smile, he was still a little surprised by Xiulan's appearance.

Xiulan simply drew her eyebrows and put on lipstick, but her regular facial features, face shape, and fair skin made her kill 90% of women in seconds.

"No need for that, I'll leave after I finish talking about things."

Lin Heng shook his head and asked again: "Did you buy my fireplace?"

"I bought it, come with me." Li Chengguo led the three people into the warehouse.

Several beautiful black fireplaces are placed here, each in a different shape.

"You said you wanted a rectangular one, I'm going to pull this up for you." Li Chengguo pointed at one of them and said.

Lin Heng lifted it up, this black fireplace must be at least 150 kilograms, plus the chimney, it must be 200 to 300 kilograms.

What satisfied him most about this fireplace was that he could watch the fire. The lid was inlaid with high-temperature resistant crystal, and he could still watch the fire through the crystal after closing the lid.

In fact, many families built their own fireplaces with bricks. He chose to buy one to watch the fire and to keep smoke out of the house.

The kind of fireplaces built by themselves will have smoke coming out, but this one is made of steel and is fully enclosed, so there is no such problem.

"How much is this?" Lin Heng asked, he was still satisfied with the thing.

Li Guocheng said, "One hundred yuan. This high-temperature resistant crystal is valuable. Otherwise, you can take this furnace for sixty yuan. I really didn't make a penny from this furnace that we have cooperated with for a long time."

Lin Heng was quite satisfied with the price. Then he took out the list of goods and handed it to him: "Our village has electricity. We need to buy some wires, switches and light bulbs. You can get me a batch according to the list and pull it up tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

"That's no problem. Leave it to me. I'll send it up to you tomorrow." Li Chengguo grinned and agreed.

After finishing here, Lin Heng chatted for a few words and went home.

He didn't go to Ge Qingshan's place. He took his wife and children with him today. Let's talk about it next time. There is nothing to teach. Bows and arrows require a lot of practice, and there are actually not many skills.

When the few people returned to Hongfeng Village, the sky was so dark that they could barely see their fingers.

When they got home, they quickly made a fire. It was so cold that they almost froze to death.

The next morning, Lin Heng gave them the things he brought with him.

"You have clothes, but you don't have shoes." Lin Heng handed the cotton shoes to his parents and sister.

"Thank you, second brother!" Caiyun grinned.

Lin's father and mother were also very happy. They really needed a pair of good cotton shoes.

"Thank you, son~" Lin's father was not polite.

Lin's mother tried it on her feet, and her face was full of love.

"Like it." Lin Heng grinned. He knew that his parents were this kind of people. They didn't want to say anything when they needed it, and didn't want to spend money indiscriminately.

Lin's father looked at him and said, "Red Maple Mountain is expected to be completed tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. Have you thought about what to do next?"

Lin Heng nodded: "I have thought about it, and I will arrange it when the time comes."

"It's okay if you think about it. You can't have no work to do. You pay a lot of money a day."

Lin Heng nodded and chatted for a few more words. Lin's mother prepared to make vermicelli tomorrow and asked everyone to help.

At noon, Lin Heng couldn't wait to drive the carriage to the town. He wanted to take his fireplace home and install it quickly. There was no fireplace in the bedroom, and it was too cold at night.
