Hello, 1983

In the early 1980s, in the Spring City of Northeast China, there was a flower that was hyped up to a sky-high price, and that was Clivia.

At that time, a pot of flowers was fired for more than 10,000 yuan, or even more than 100,000 yuan. Can you believe this?

That was the 1980s, when households with 10,000 yuan were still extremely scarce. A county did not necessarily have a household with 10,000 yuan.

There is even a Hong Kong businessman who drives an imported car and wants to exchange for a pot of top-quality Clivia. Can you believe this?

But the truth is that crazy.

Liu Qingshan clearly remembers that it wasn't until 1985 when the provincial newspaper published three editorials in a row, which cooled the incident and completely subsided.

Clivia has also lost the high economic value that people imposed on it and returned to the origin of flowers.

Although it is only 1983, the price of Clivia has not climbed to the sky, but the price is already in a state of rising.

If you go to Spring City with two small pots of Clivia?

Thinking about it later, after it was disclosed in the newspaper, my mother heard about it, and she talked about it for a long time. She missed an opportunity to make a fortune and was sorry for the wealth left by her father.

However, when Liu Qingshan talked about his thoughts, no one in the family believed it.

First, the eldest sister made a gesture to pull his ears: "Qingshan, where did you hear this, how can you hear that wind is rain?"

Liu Qingshan hurriedly got behind his grandmother and avoided the eldest sister's clutches: "Listen to what the school teacher said!"

In this family, the teacher's words are still very useful, because Liu Zijun, who has passed away, used to be a teacher.

"A pot of flowers is worth so much money, impossible, definitely impossible!"

Grandpa also shook his head.

On the other hand, Lin Zhi said with anticipation, "Could it be Zijun, who blesses us in another world and knows our family's current difficulties, so he left this wealth early?"

This time, no one spoke, and everyone felt that there might be a divine will in the dark.

As a result, Liu Yinfeng muttered, breaking the silence: "How does this gentleman say in English?"

"Clivia!"

Liu Qingshan replied smoothly, and then added: "I-love-Clivia, Clivia-more-love-in-the-breeze!"

"what does it mean?"

Liu Yinfeng frowned, as if she didn't understand.

"I love Junzhilan, and I love Junzi's style even more!"

This time, even Grandpa twisted his sparse gray beard and nodded.

Isn't that what he meant when he named his son Zijun?

"Brother, you really speak English!"

Liu Yinfeng suddenly jumped over and grabbed Liu Qingshan's arm tightly, her delicate face flushed with excitement.

Liu Qingshan couldn't help but grinned and shouted: "Second sister, it hurts, you hurt me!"

Only then did Liu Yinfeng let go, only to see several nail prints on her brother's arm, she couldn't help feeling distressed, and rubbed gently with her hands.

"Sister was so excited just now, brother, why do you speak English so well?"

The rest of the people also looked over with exploratory expressions.

Liu Qingshan blinked: "The professor Wang who was sent to Jiapigou before, you remember, I learned from him."

"Pharaoh, it's been several years since he was rehabilitated. He's an international student, and he's drunk foreign ink."

At that time, my grandfather and Professor Wang got along very well, and inadvertently helped my grandson to lie.

Liu Yinfeng smiled brightly, like a blooming flower: "Brother, hurry into the house and teach sister English. All right, you will tutor sister in the future, and I will definitely be admitted to university next year!"

Everyone's faces also showed gratifying smiles, only Liu Qingshan smacked his lips: Have you all gone astray?

I said just now that I exchanged Clivia for money, why did I go to learn English?

Don't delay this!

...

Whoa whoa!

In the early morning, with the loud rooster crowing, Liu Qingshan had already carried a pole and came back from the edge of the well carrying water.

In the past, it was the eldest sister who carried the water, but now, Liu Qingshan felt that, as the only man in the family, he should undertake this task.

When I filled the water tank, I was sweating profusely, and my shoulders were burning hot.

After breakfast, Liu Qingshan and his party set off, and of course the destination was Spring City.

"Qingshan, take care of grandpa on the way." The elder sister urged.

"The letter of introduction is ready, don't forget to change the letter of introduction when you arrive at the commune."

The second sister is usually a stuffy gourd, and this will also start to nag.

Lin Zhi was also a little worried, pulling her son and saying, "Qingshan, you must look after the money and food stamps in your pocket!"

"Don't worry, Mom, it's guaranteed not to be lost."

Liu Qingshan patted the bottom of his thigh and replied with a full mouth.

Last night, Lin Zhi sewed 30 yuan and 10 catties of food stamps onto her pants.

I also have all the belongings of my grandfather's house, but they are all inside.

"Brother, come back early!" The fourth little brother also waved his little hand.

"Be obedient, brother, come back and buy you delicious food and toffee!" Liu Qingshan pushed up the bicycle, and behind the car sat his grandfather Liu Shikui.

Behind them are Datou and Erbiao, each of them carrying a small flower basket, which is tightly covered.

They are going to send Liu Qingshan to the commune, and then push the bike back.

As for Gao Wenxue, this guy is stunned now. If anyone pulls him out of the manuscript, he has to be anxious.

"Qingshan, you must be careful when you go out!"

Behind him, there was a warning from his mother, and the mother was worried. This is true.

She didn't know that this son of hers, from all over the world, traveled almost all over the country, but it was not the first time he went out.

From Jiapigou to the commune, the nearly 20-mile road is full of potholes and dirt roads.

When encountering a good place to go, Liu Qingshan rides for a while; when it is too bumpy, he pushes for a while, and when he is tired, he waits for the little brothers behind.

It's not that he is light-hearted and dominates the bicycle, but the two little friends in the back really don't know how to ride a bicycle, and they can push the cart into the ditch.

Grandpa was still sitting in the car, and Liu Qingshan was worried about handing over the bicycle to them.

It took nearly two hours to reach Qingshan Commune. The road was replaced by a gravel road, and the buildings on both sides of the road were also made of bricks and tiles.

These are some of the main units of the commune: health centers, food stations, horse stations, purchasing departments, etc. Of course, the most popular supply and marketing cooperatives are also indispensable.

There are slogans written or printed on the walls everywhere: Supply and marketing cooperatives of course write "guarantee supply", while health centers say "family planning is everyone's responsibility."

Liu Qingshan didn't understand: everyone is responsible, and how old is the little baby?

The slogan on the wall of the commune courtyard is the most eye-catching. It is carved with cement, and then painted with white ash.

Liu Qingshan entered through the gate next to the slogan, and then replaced the letter of introduction issued by the village with the official letter of introduction from the commune.

These days, if there is no letter of introduction, it is absolutely impossible to do anything.

No one pays attention to you when you eat, and ignores you when you live in a restaurant. How can you live, right?

As for the reason, of course, it can't be to go to Spring City to buy flowers, then people won't bloom for you at all. Therefore, I can only pull my grandfather out: treat the eyes.

Moreover, Liu Qingshan really planned to do so. In any case, he had to think of a way to perform cataract surgery on his grandfather. In this life, he could no longer let his grandfather continue to be blind.

After opening the letter of introduction, it was noon, and Liu Qingshan bought four big white steamed buns in the canteen of the commune: five cents plus two taels of food stamps.

After spending another 12 cents, a large bowl of egg soup came up. Liu Qingshan gave grandpa a bowl first, and the rest was divided among the three brothers.

One bowl of soup and one steamed bun is enough for the old man, and the rest are half-sized children, who eat the master of the dead old man.

It’s good to eat a meal of steamed buns with white flour during the New Year’s Eve. This is not enough, so if you have free bowels, let’s make up the count with the stick pancakes you brought.

Liu Qingshan took a bite of the big steamed bun, which was soft and chewy, with the fragrance of the fermented flour, and a slight sweetness after chewing it carefully.

You say, why can't you taste this flavor later?

It cost a total of 32 cents and 8 taels of food stamps, and the four of them were well fed.

After leaving the cafeteria, Da Tou and Er Biaozi happily pushed the car back, while Liu Qingshan and grandfather waited for the bus under the shade of the trees on the side of the road.

It's only one day, so don't miss it.

Finally, when the bus came and got on the bus to buy a ticket, the female conductor saw that Liu Qingshan was still carrying a burden and hung two flower baskets, and she shouted: "Put the things on the pack shelf above the car!"

In this era, the service attitude of the service industry is generally not very good.

By the way, the buses at the moment are all on the roof outside, UU reading www. uukanshu.com has shelves for loading.

When passengers pick up and place goods, they have to climb up from a small ladder at the back of the car. After the goods are put away, they are finally covered with a large net made of rope.

The flower basket contains treasures, how can it be placed on the roof of the car, what if it falls off?

Liu Qingshan smiled and said almost: "Sister, you look so handsome, if you don't stare, you will look better."

Pu Chi, the female conductor was amused by him, waved her hand, and told him to get on the bus.

It seems that when going out, mouth desserts are still necessary.

It was bumpy and bumpy all the way, swaying to the county.

Through the car window, Liu Qingshan looked at this unfamiliar but familiar small county: there were no high-rise buildings, and the tallest building was only four floors.

Pedestrians on the road are also mostly riding bicycles, with a pocket hanging from the handlebars, and their faces are peaceful and content.

This is the characteristic of this era. The rhythm of life has not yet picked up. Although people's lives are difficult and simple, they are enjoyable.

If you only talk about the happiness index, it is estimated that people at this time are the highest.

In this era, the gap between people is really not very big.

Liu Qingshan didn't figure out any quick and easy way to make money.

Even his original plan to sell vegetables in the county town was a little shaken, because when he passed the vegetable market, he unexpectedly discovered that it was very prosperous, and it was not his turn to be the first bird.

In the past two years, the policy above has been loosened, so people who have been holding back hard for a long time have erupted with unprecedented enthusiasm. A great era of rapid development is coming.
