"How many?"

This time there was no "how much". Except for Zhao Jun, even the female employee was shocked.

Thirty-two hundred dollars!

In this day and age, in this mountain town, this is really a sky-high price.

Zhao Jun will go to work soon, and he works as a technician in the forest farm acceptance team, which only makes 46 yuan and 80 cents a month.

This three thousand and two is equivalent to Zhao Jun's salary for five or six years.

If you want to use this money to talk about your wife in the village, as long as no one cares about it, it won't be a problem to talk to him ten times.

Li Baoyu dropped the sack in his hand and grabbed Zhao Jun's arm.

At this time, many people had gathered around.

After the New Year, there are many people going up the mountain to sell clips and rackets, and there are also more people coming down the mountain to sell leather goods.

But how can those yellow leaves and gray bark be so valuable?

A pair of eyes fell on the lynx's skin, with different expressions.

Zhao Jun looked at the male employee and said, "More."

"Huh?" The male employee was stunned.

Zhao Jun looked at him and said, "Three thousand and five."

"Three thousand and five..." The male employee hesitated, looking embarrassed.

Zhao Jun pointed inside and said: "Why don't you call again and ask, three thousand and five, if it works, I will sell it to you."

The male employee didn't say anything, nor did he make another call. He just turned around and opened the drawer, took out three wads of money and placed them in front of Zhao Jun, and then took out most of the remaining wads.

This wad of money originally had one hundred cards, but I just pointed out eighteen to the bear bile seller.

The male employee picked out thirty-two more and threw them back into the drawer. He handed the remaining half a stack to Zhao Jun and said, "You have checked."

Zhao Jun took the money, kicked the sack beside his feet, and shouted: "Baoyu!"

"Brother." Li Baoyu looked at Zhao Jun dully.

This is a child who has never seen the world.

Zhao Jun pointed at the sack in front of his feet, and Li Baoyu realized what he was doing. He quickly picked up the sack, opened its mouth, and pulled out another lynx skin in front of everyone's extremely surprised eyes.

"I..." The male employees were stunned.

At this time, Zhao Jun was holding a sack roll under his left arm. The long thing rolled in the sack was unknown. He only used his right hand to unfold the lynx skin on the table, and then said to the male employee: "Measure it." .”

Peel off the skin, without the head, without the tail, and without the limbs below the elbow joint.

Therefore, although it was bitten by four dogs yesterday, this lynx skin only has a few flaws on its buttocks.

The male employee measured and looked at it, then said "Wait a moment" to Zhao Jun, and hurried to the back room.

This time, it took him a little longer. Zhao Jun asked Li Baoyu to put away the lynx skin first, so as not to delay others from selling things.

Zhao Jun, on the other hand, quickly checked the money. After checking it, and seeing that there was nothing wrong, I put it all in my shoulder bag.

When the male employee came back, he said to Zhao Jun: "Two thousand and five thousand."

"What?" Li Baoyu's eyes widened, a little unbelievable, but this time it was not because there was more, but because there was less.

That lynx skin can be sold for 3,500, but this one is a little worn, so it’s only 2,500?

Zhao Jun reached out to stop Li Baoyu and said to the male employee: "Three thousand!"

The male employee shook his head and said, "I'll give you an extra one hundred or two thousand sixty at most. If you agree, I'll take it. If you don't agree, you can take it back."

When Zhao Jun heard this, he thought for a while and said, "I'm selling you, please pay me."

The male employee turned around and took money from the drawer, first two wads, and then ordered sixty bills.

At this time, there were many people around, including leather sellers and people watching the excitement, but there was only one person in the center of everyone's vision, and that was Zhao Jun.

After Zhao Jun counted the money, he stuffed it into his shoulder pocket, shook his head at Li Baoyu, and then turned to leave.

But the male employee suddenly spoke and called Zhao Jun: "Little brother."

"Huh?" Zhao Jun turned to look at him.

The male employee raised his chin slightly and said, "What's under your arm?"

He thought Zhao Jun still had goods in hand.

Zhao Jun lowered his head and glanced at the sack rolled between himself, and said with a smile: "Pickaxe handle."

"Ah?" The male employee was startled when he heard this and asked in confusion: "What are you doing with it?"

"Self-defense." Zhao Jun said: "Selling it for so much money, can't I be more defensive?"

After saying that, Zhao Jun held the sack roll in one hand and covered his shoulder bag with the other, and walked out of the crowd.

As soon as he left the counter selling mountain products, Li Baoyu asked: "Brother, do you want to buy something to eat?"

"What are you buying? Hurry up and leave." Zhao Jun replied and strode out.

The two came on the street. Since they didn't have a car, they decided to walk all the way back.

But it was already past one o'clock in the afternoon, and Zhao Jun was also a little hungry. He thought that when he came last time, he bought some stove fruits and trough cakes to eat on the road. This time, he didn't buy anything. He had to keep walking back to the village. , I'm afraid the feeling of being hungry is not pleasant.

Happening to pass by a state-owned restaurant, Zhao Jun looked behind him, left and right, then grabbed Li Baoyu and said, "Let's go, Baoyu, let's go to a restaurant and have a meal."

"Okay!" Li Baoyu happily entered the restaurant with Zhao Jun. It was already past dinner time and there was no one eating in the restaurant.

Moreover, the boss and the waiter are both the same person, a man in his late fifties, wearing a white apron and a white chef's hat, sitting behind a table near the counter drinking tea.

Seeing the two of them coming in, he moved a little closer to the wall and said, "What do you want to eat? Just order."

Zhao Jun looked at the wall and saw a small blackboard hanging on the wall. On it were written four characters of today's dish, and below were two columns and three rows, a total of six dish names.

Braised carp, braised pork ribs, spicy and sour potato shreds, dried tofu, pot-wrapped pork, and braised pork.

There should be two more lines under these six dish names, but they should all be sold out by noon.

The two of them sat down on the left and right sides of the table under the blackboard, leaning forward and looking up at the blackboard above. Even though there were only six dish names, Li Baoyu looked at it for a long time.

"Baoyu, what are you eating?" Zhao Jun asked Li Baoyu.

Li Baoyu blurted out: "Dried tofu with sharp pepper!"

Zhao Jun suddenly became happy, "Can you order something tough?"

Li Baoyu smiled, stewed fish and braised pork ribs, they eat a lot of these two dishes, they are not rare. Not to mention the spicy and sour potato shreds.

As for dry tofu, it is considered a rarity nowadays, and it is not something you can eat casually.

Moreover, Northeastern people, especially Northeastern men, love soybean tofu and dry tofu.

At this point, Zhao Jun turned to look at the boss and said, "Dried tofu, braised pork, and steamed pork buns. What are the staple foods?"

“Rice and steamed beef dumplings.”

Zhao Jun said: "Two bowls of rice and a drawer of steamed dumplings."

"Wait!" The boss stood up and walked behind the counter. Inside was the kitchen. He went in to cook, leaving Zhao Jun and Li Baoyu outside.

"Baoyu, I'll give you the money when I get it back."

"Yeah." Li Baoyu kept nodding and asked in a low voice, "Brother, do we really not have to hand it in this time?"
