After several people had lunch, they went to rest.

He Hui felt strange when she saw Jia Yi pushing the bicycle.

"Why are you pushing the bicycle? Why don't you take a break?"

"No, I'm going out for a while and I'll be back in a moment."

He Hui asked puzzledly.

"What's the matter? It's noon and the weather is so hot. You have to go out."

"You'll know when I get back. You can go and sleep for a while. I'll leave first."

…

"Old man, it's rare that you are at home today."

As soon as Jia Yi entered the hall, he saw Mr. Cheng on the recliner. He was blowing the electric fan comfortably. When he heard Jia Yi's words, he just glanced at him and said nothing.

Jia Yi was puzzled, what was wrong with Mr. Cheng? Could it be that he was old and it was summer again, so he was lethargic...

"Old man, what are you..."

"Hmph, you can see me every day when you come here."

At this time, Mrs. He came over and explained.

"Xiao Yi, don't pay attention to him. This old man has reached the age of retirement this year. He is upset now."

"Oh, that's how it is."

Jia Yi can also understand that although he has never experienced it, he knows that it is very painful for a person to change the habits he has developed for many years, but it will get better after a while.

But if Mr. Cheng really retires, can his business continue, and can he still live in peace?…

There are more and more questions in Jia Yi's mind, but now is not a good time to ask, so he can only bury the questions deeply in his heart for the time being.

"Let's wait until we find a suitable opportunity to ask again!"

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit dull, Mrs. He quickly stepped forward to guide the conversation.

"Xiao Yi, I heard from Xiaohui that you went to Tianjin a while ago? How is Tianjin over there?"

"Yes, Grandma He, I went there and just came back yesterday. Tianjin is close to the sea. The products in the sea are still very rich. Like the expensive seafood we sell here, you can buy it for just a few cents over there.

.”

Mrs. He was very surprised.

"Really? No, the prices at supply and marketing cooperatives should be about the same."

Mr. Cheng finally couldn't help but speak.

"Old lady, you haven't heard yet. What this guy is talking about is the price of private transactions. Moreover, there is a lot of seafood there and there is no shipping fee. The price is naturally much lower than that of the supply and marketing cooperative."

Mr. Cheng stood up and stretched his muscles.

"Boy, tell me why you came to my place today."

"Well, I brought some specialties back from Tianjin for you to try."

Jia Yi said and handed over the gift.

"I want to see what good things you brought here. Pastries, dried fish, these two jars contain..."

The couple opened the bag and took a look. Mr. Cheng took out everything in the same manner.

"This is shrimp paste, made by fishermen on the seaside."

As soon as Mr. Cheng heard this, he opened a can, dipped his finger into it and tasted it. He closed his eyes and tasted it carefully. After a long time, he opened his eyes and said with emotion.

"Well, that's right, it tastes like this, it's authentic."

"Old man, you have eaten before..."

Mr. Cheng put down his things and said slowly.

"Of course I've eaten it. I used to rely on it for meals, but I haven't eaten it for a long time."

Mrs. He took the things to the warehouse. Mr. Cheng looked at Jia Yi and said seriously.

"Okay, let's get down to business!"

"Old man, what do you mean?"

He glanced at Jia Yi, his tone full of confidence.

"I don't know you yet, tell me, how many goods do you have now?"

Jia Yi: "?!"

"Wondering how I knew?"

Jia Yi nodded.

He said proudly.

"I don't know you well yet. You have stayed in Tianjin for such a long time. If you don't get anything, will you come back?"

Jia Yi scratched his head in embarrassment. Unexpectedly, he understood himself quite well. It was so difficult to be a human being.

"Hey, I got a lot of things."

"Okay, I want them all."

He just slapped the table and decided that as long as it was food, he would never have too much.

Jia Yi was speechless. It was like this again. Why were they so angry?

Jia Yi was stunned for a long time before he spoke.

"Old man, you have to think about it!"

"What have you thought about?"

"Old man, I have a lot of goods, but are you sure you can handle them all?"

Mr. Cheng was silent. Now it is not like before. He is about to retire and has become leisurely. Will there be so many people giving him face?

He leaned on crutches and thought for a while before asking Jia Yi to help himself, then turned around and went to make a phone call.

Jia Yi did not rush, and took the newspaper on the table to kill time. He opened the newspaper. Most of it was about encouraging labor, model workers, politics, etc. These had nothing to do with Jia Yi. As for what he wanted to find about current affairs.

There is very little content, and it is all news that everyone knows.

Putting down the newspaper helplessly, Jia Yi was now confused as to whether he should remind Mr. Cheng to pay attention.

"Boy, I want as much as I have. Don't worry, I promise there will be no problem."

"Well, since the old man is confident, it's settled."

Next, Jia Yi told the old man the specific quantity of the goods. In fact, in his eyes, it was really not much, and it was not enough for them to share.

We negotiated the price and finally decided to trade tomorrow afternoon.

"Boy, why are you leaving in such a hurry? It's so hot outside."

At the gate of the courtyard, Mr. Cheng saw Jia Yi off.

"There's something wrong. By the way, old man, please pay more attention recently. I always feel that something is going to happen, something big is going to happen."

Jia Yi hesitated for a long time and decided to say something.

Mr. Cheng's heart sank when he was told by Jia Yi. Recently, he had felt that something was wrong in the atmosphere. There were even some abnormalities in the army, but he couldn't find out what was going on. He was troubled by this now.

"Boy, do you know something?"

"What can I know? It just feels wrong. In short, old man, you have to be careful these days. Even if you want to investigate something, it is best to do it secretly. Don't make it public."

Jia Yi had already walked away, but Mr. Cheng was still standing at the door, leaning on his cane and lost in thought.

Jia Yi's reminder made his hair stand on end. In this current situation, what is the real big deal?

Moreover, judging from Jia Yi's words, this matter is very dangerous. If the other party discovers it, his life will be in danger.

Thinking of this, he could no longer feel at ease.

I hurriedly ran to the house and started making phone calls.

He picked up the phone and suddenly didn't know what to say. Is the phone safe?

He thought for a moment, then made a few calls to some of the people he trusted most, and made an appointment with them to come over for dinner tonight. He didn't say anything else on the phone except this.

…

When Jia Yi came back, they were already sitting in the hall and playing.

"Brother, why did you go?"

"Look at the back."

"Wow, watermelon. It's still ice cold."

Xiaodang ran over, picked up a big watermelon and ran back to the hall. Huaihua also came out and picked up another one. She just wanted to hug it in too.

"Put this in the cellar. One is enough for the few of us."

Sophora japonica suddenly had a grimace on her face.

"Ah, if I had known I wouldn't have come out. It's so hot."

"What are you mumbling about? Go quickly or we won't wait for you."

Jia Yi said that he didn't care about her and went straight to the kitchen to get a knife.

Sophora japonica reluctantly sent the watermelon into the cellar, and when she came back, Jia Yi had just cut it.

"Brother, watermelon is delicious."

Xiaoxin's eyes were filled with laughter. Eating iced watermelon in summer is a kind of enjoyment. It is refreshing and relieves the heat. After eating it, the whole person feels comfortable.
