Huang Laosan knew a lot of people from all walks of life, so he was very efficient in reselling. His notoriety saved him a lot of trouble. In addition, he was cautious in his work now, and he sold a lot of goods at low prices, which he resold to others and also gave some of the profits.

This can be maintained temporarily, but I don't know how long it can last. There is never a shortage of ruthless people in the black zone. It seems necessary to arrange for him to recruit some "little brothers"!

How many people are powerful!

Zhao Dongchuan thought so while eating.

After a while, Zhao Dongchuan finished his meal without being disturbed.

I touched my belly and found it was about 7% full. That’s enough~ leave!

…………

The next day, New Year’s Day, is a holiday!

Zhao Dongchuan slept in for a rare time and missed his morning lessons.

On this day, he seemed to have returned to his days in Shanghai and became a lazy otaku, lazing in bed for the entire morning on weekends.

When I’m hungry, I take out the food that I have stored long ago from the storage ring. The time-stopping function of the space allows the food to still be steaming. It’s magical!

"What a pity, there are no takeout orders right now. Otherwise, I could register as a takeout deliveryman and use this space function to deliver food. I can definitely become a top-level takeout deliveryman!" Zhao Dongchuan muttered to himself, rubbing his full stomach. (System: Be a human being!!!)

After being so idle for the whole morning, Zhao Dongchuan jumped up!

After a quick wash, he changed into work clothes, combed his hair into a popular middle-parted style, and suddenly became a decent "writer", as if the lazy otaku just now was just an illusion!

He took out malted milk and canned fruit from a net bag in the space, as well as some loose biscuits, candies, etc., and when he had the four items in total, he went out.

I'm going to Jia Bing's house for dinner today, so I'll go there early to help out and bring some gifts as a token of my appreciation.

After hanging the stuff on the front of the bike, Zhao Dongchuan pushed the bike and got on it, and off we went! !

Arriving at Jia Bing's house familiarly, the little black dog "Baron" ran over happily, wagging his tail.

"Baron, you are quite smart. You came to meet me from a long distance!" Zhao Dongchuan squatted down, touched the dog's head, and said with a smile.

"Woof! Woof! Woof!" The little black dog "Baron" responded several times, as if to say, "If you don't practice what you preach, give me a bone!"

"Xiao Zhao, you're here! It's quite early!" Jia Bing heard the noise and came out.

"I came here early because I wanted to help!" Zhao Dongchuan stood up and said with a smile.

"Oh, let Xiao Zhao in quickly!" Shufen said as she walked, with her big belly.

"Sister Shufen!"

"My aunt's family is here today too. We can help you without any need to trouble you..." Shufen said.

Zhao Dongchuan followed Jia Bing and Sister Shufen into the house and saw a woman dressed like a farmer in her forties busy cooking in the kitchen.

There were three people sitting in the room - an older man, probably Shufen's uncle, and two little boys, probably his children.

"Aunt, uncle, this is Xiao Zhao, Lao Jia's colleague!"

Zhao Dongchuan greeted everyone, chatted for a while, and then left the inner room. There were more people inside, so he preferred to sit outside.

"Want a cigarette?" Jia Bing also followed him out, took out a pack of Daqianmen cigarettes and handed him a cigarette.

Zhao Dongchuan did not refuse. He took the cigarette, took out a lighter, lit it for Jia Bing first, and then lit his own.

"Marriage is like this. There will always be human relations. Her aunt came to take care of Shufen out of love. Her aunt's family came to celebrate the festival together. It's also human nature!"

"Marriage is an alliance between two families, and we can't avoid facing these things!" Jia Bing blew out a smoke ring.

"Teacher Jia, when did you become so sentimental?" Zhao Dongchuan said with a smile.

"Nothing, just some thoughts these days!" Jia Bing smoked a cigarette and said with a smile.

"Teacher Jia, if you have any problems, please tell me. I'm single anyway!"

“Okay, I won’t be polite then!

Cough~cough~cough!" Jia Bing took a deep breath and choked.

Zhao Dongchuan then went into the house with Jia Bing and started chatting with everyone. When he learned that Shufen's aunt's two children were currently in junior high school, he took out two notebooks from his bag and gave them to them, telling them to study hard.

Perhaps Zhao Dongchuan has developed a professional disease from teaching Sun Shaoping, and he always likes to persuade other people's children to study hard.

Aunt Shufen and uncle were of course very grateful. They had heard from Teacher Jia that Zhao Dongchuan was a great writer. The book given by a great writer was full of literary flavor, and it was always good for children to have some literary flavor.

Soon the food was ready. There were many people today and it was a festival, so Jia Bing had spent a lot of money. The table was filled with "hard dishes", including meat, vegetables, soup, and plenty of white flour buns.

My uncle and his family came from the countryside, and their eyes lit up when they saw these dishes. However, due to the occasion, as guests in someone else's home, they were naturally a little restrained. The two children were grown up and had a sense of shame, so they would not rush to grab the food. However, the movement of their Adam's apples in swallowing could not hide their inner desire!

Seeing this, Jia Bing did not hesitate, picked up the wine glass and said: "Happy New Year's Day, I wish you all the best!"

Zhao Dongchuan and the others also raised their glasses and drank together. Even the two children poured themselves small glasses of wine and toasted together. Sister Shufen also pretended to do the same and picked up the bowl and drank a sip of the soup to show her respect.

Then the meal started, and my aunt and her family immediately turned into eaters, eating voraciously.

Jia Bing watched with a smile and occasionally picked up some food for the two children.

Sister Shufen also touched her belly and started chatting and laughing with her sister-in-law.

We were chatting when fireworks were set off in the playground somewhere.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Exploded in the sky!

Suddenly the sky became colorful!

Fireworks are a rare commodity nowadays, and not everyone can get them.

All of a sudden, all the people around came out of their houses, holding their bowls, and watched the fireworks.

"Look at this direction, it seems to be the government compound!" Jia Bing said, standing at the door with a bowl in his hand.

"It's so beautiful!" Sister Shufen said admiringly while holding Jia Bing's arm.

"We'll buy some later and put them in the yard!" said Jia Bing.

Zhao Dongchuan looked at the fireworks and remained silent.

In this way, amidst the brilliant fireworks and the cheers of the crowd, New Year's Day passed...

…………

After New Year’s Day, it was the new calendar, January 1976, .

Zhao Dongchuan was sitting in his office, bending over his desk with a pen, writing and revising, trying constantly to recall and write down the poems, lyrics, novels, comics and other contents that he had some impression of. As his physical fitness continued to improve, the memories deep in his mind were also gradually becoming clearer. These were all precious materials that might be useful in the future.

At this time, Du Lili walked in with a complicated expression and shouted, "Xiao Zhao, Director Wang wants you to go to his office!"
