Chapter 21 Buying Books

Chapter 21 Buying Books
Do it, do it, what the hell is the point of doing it? The fish are all in my space!
Now, of course, I have to go do it, um, go and have fun with my girlfriend!
Uh, it seems a bit early! It was only a little after two in the afternoon, and Ran Qiuye was probably still in class, and she was the head teacher.

When I think about delivering fish to the factory tomorrow, delivery is still a problem. It seems I will need a cart to help me deliver it!
Thinking about these things, I rode my bike around the street and finally found a few people pulling carts near a pub. We agreed to transport the goods for the next day.

Afterwards, Lin Hao went to Xinhua Bookstore to buy some books.

Riding a bike on the road and looking at the street scenes of this era, I have a special feeling, as if since I came to this era, I have never taken a good look at what this era should look like.

I saw people riding bicycles and walking on the road. From time to time, a car passed by. There was also a tram coming slowly towards us.

This was the first time that Lin Hao saw this old-fashioned tram. He only saw three windows on the upper part of the front windshield, and two large words "Peace" were written on the lower part, with a headlight in the middle of the two words.

Hey, why doesn’t the other car have the word “peace” on it, and the model of the car is also different? I don’t know why, and Lin Hao can’t find out because he has arrived at the Xinhua Bookstore.

At the entrance of the bookstore, most people were carrying canvas bags and going in and out of the Xinhua Bookstore. Looking at the endless stream of people, Lin Hao had a bad feeling!

really!

As soon as I entered the bookstore, I saw that it was crowded with people, even more lively than their cafeteria. Upon closer inspection, I saw that there were many more people reading books than buying books.

Walking into the Xinhua Bookstore of this era, a strange feeling lingers in my heart. There are so many ways to acquire knowledge in later generations, but in this era, the channels for acquiring knowledge are either from school or by reading books in bookstores.

Xinhua Bookstore is a knowledge gathering area second only to the school. When Lin Hao saw these people, it was like they were swimming in the ocean of knowledge, diligently absorbing useful knowledge.

This shows how strong the Chinese people’s desire for knowledge is. Of course, it may also be because this is the capital city!

Lin Hao walked slowly among the bookshelves and looked at them casually. This one is "Chinese Workers, I think the last few words should be blocked out after they are written out", this one is "Revolutionary Documents", this one is "Songs of Democracy", and this one is "Lei Feng's Diary".

Ha, I found you. "Knowledge Handbook of Agricultural and Sideline Production" Lin Hao took the book from the bookshelf.

The purpose of coming here is for this book. If you want to farm, but you don’t even understand the growth cycle and growth environment of crops, then what’s the point of farming?

I flipped through this book and found that it has a very important origin. The first edition was published in July 1964, led by the army and compiled by the Quartermaster Department of the General Logistics Department.

He took the book in his hand and continued searching, and soon found another book.

"Main Mass Fisheries in the Yellow Sea and Bohai Sea and Their Technological Improvements", first edition in 1956, with the Chinese character "国" in its title, Mass Fisheries Department of the Ministry of Fisheries.

I just feel that the name is weird, but as long as I can learn something, I don’t care whether it’s weird or not.

When I walked to the door, there were two sales clerks, one was registering and issuing tickets, and the other was collecting money for the books.

After leaving Xinhua Bookstore, Lin Hao came to the gate of the elementary school with two books. He did not go in, but found a place at the gate and started reading.

Learning knowledge can indeed make time seem shorter. The noisy children, big and small, at the door went home one by one. Lin Hao naturally couldn't concentrate on reading and put the book away.

Suddenly I found that there was someone next to me!

"Oh! You scared me to death!" Lin Hao was startled by the person standing next to him. It turned out that Ran Qiuye had been standing next to him without him knowing when. So he asked, "How long have you been standing here?"

"It was a while ago. When school was over, I was seeing off students at the gate. I saw someone reading a book from afar. I was very curious, so I came over to take a look!"

While speaking, Ran Qiuye's face was filled with a sweet smile. She was naturally happy about Lin Hao's arrival.

"Then you won't go back to school!" Lin Hao asked.

"No!"

"Come on, let's go eat first!"

"Okay! But isn't it too wasteful?" Ran Qiuye was a little worried that Lin Hao might not be able to afford eating in restaurants for a long time.

"Don't worry, my family is very wealthy!" Lin Hao said nonchalantly.

After eating, let's go to the courtyard, the main gate.

Qin Huairu saw from afar that Sha Zhu was holding more than ten kilograms of corn flour in his hands, so she hurried to meet him.

"Sister Qin, take this corn flour. I have something else to do, so I'll go back first!" Without waiting for Qin Huairu to speak, he prepared to go home.

"Hey~ Why are you in such a hurry? Talk to me!" Qin Huairu said quickly when she saw Sha Zhu was about to leave.

"No, Sister Qin, I really have something to do!" Sha Zhu had an important matter to discuss with the third uncle, and he was very anxious.

"I have something to talk to you about. Is your problem urgent or out of control?" Qin Huairu said angrily.

"Okay, then you speak first!" Sha Zhu said helplessly.

Qin Huairu saw that Sha Zhu might have something to do, so she asked directly: "Sha Zhu, let me ask you, how many kilograms of fish does Lin Hao want to sell to the factory?"

"It's almost two thousand kilograms, what's the matter!" said Sha Zhu.

"When the fish is delivered, talk to Lin Hao and ask if you can get a few back?" Qin Huairu thought of the children who were always hungry, especially after eating the fish the day before yesterday.

"Okay, I'll talk to him about it when the time comes, but whether it will work or not depends on what Lin Hao says." Sha Zhu said, but at the same time he had some questions in his mind:
"Hey, why don't you just tell him directly? Why let me say it!"

Qin Huairu said to Sha Zhu in a flattering way: "He asked you to help him! He must give you face! Besides, he and I have nothing to do with each other, so of course you have to go."

"Okay, go and do your thing. By the way, what's the matter?" Qin Huairu asked.

"I'll go find the third uncle first and talk to you when I come back." Sha Zhu said, and walked quickly to the front yard.

When Jia Zhang saw Qin Huairu coming back, she asked hurriedly, "Did Shazhu agree?"

"He agreed. He said he would ask Lin Hao to try, but I don't know if Lin Hao would agree." Qin Huairu said.

"You know what, this kid Lin Hao, who usually keeps quiet, actually has some abilities!" Jia Zhang glanced at Qin Huairu and started to make up her mind.

"Who says it's not true? First he bought a bicycle, then he renovated his house, and now he caught so many fish!"

Qin Huairu also felt emotional. She had never realized before that Lin Hao was so capable. Otherwise, she should have introduced Jingru to him before, so that she would have one more person to help her.

At this time, Bang Geng, who was doing his homework, heard Qin Huairu talking about fish and asked quickly, "Mom, can we eat fish again?"

"You haven't even started yet, so hurry up and do your homework!" Qin Huairu said.

Three-year-old Huaihua licked her lips and said in a cute voice, "Mom, I want to eat fish!"

Qin Huairu picked up Huaihua and comforted her, "Be good, we'll eat white flour buns today, and we'll eat fish in two days!"

Xiao Dang said after this: "Mom, I thought about it too!"

"Hurry up and do your homework, because if we really have fish to eat, you guys will be indispensable!"

When Jia Zhang heard Qin Huairu say that she wanted to eat white flour buns, she wondered if Qin Huairu had done something shameful.

I hurriedly asked, "Mantou, where did you get the white flour mantou?"

"I cheated it from Xu Damao." Qin Huairu thought about it and didn't care. It was not the first time that she cheated him.

Jia Zhang curled her lips but said nothing. She picked up the steamed bun and started eating it.
