Chapter 57： Used to be slow

Chapter 57 Once Slow

In the early morning of the next morning, Jiang Xiaobai took someone to check out, found Yichun, gave him the two cakes bought yesterday, and asked him to pass one to the office director.

The remaining portion was given to the aunt in the cafeteria during the morning meal.

"Okay, I wish you all the best." Yichun sent Jiang Xiaobai and others to the gate of Bayi Iron and Steel Plant.

"Thank you Brother Yi, goodbye." Jiang Xiaobai waved, and walked towards the station with people.

Li Siyan's mood was not very high along the way, because as soon as she arrived at the station, she would part ways with Jiang Xiaobai and return to the city.

"It's okay, it will take just over a month. We will see you in Jincheng, you will pick me up at the station." Jiang Xiaobai comforted Li Siyan as he walked.

"Well, when I will pick you up at the train station, you will wear a white shirt. I can find you at a glance..." Li Siyan looked at Jiang Xiaobai with a full face.

"Well, I wear a pink floral skirt when I go, and when you come to me, I will hold a sign with the words Jiang Xiaobai written on it."

"Well, write a little bit bigger, otherwise I have bad eyesight and can't see clearly..."

"Ok..." Soon everyone came to the bus station. Liu Aiguo led others to buy the bus tickets back to the county seat, while Jiang Xiaobai accompanied Li Siyan to buy the provincial bus tickets.

"Go to Longcheng, a ticket is 1 yuan." In fact, many people say that prices are cheap at this time, but people's income is also low.

So relatively speaking, prices are not much worse than later generations.

For the buses from the above party cities to the provincial cities, the fare is one yuan per ticket. At this time, one yuan is already a day's income for many people, and even more people can't reach one yuan a day.

Then the social innovation changed rapidly. The price of the ticket increased 70 times, and a ticket reached 70 yuan.

But relatively speaking, people's income is even higher. If the income reaches 70 yuan a day, basically everyone can achieve it.

"Okay, give me one." Jiang Xiaobai took a dollar out of his pocket and passed it into the ticket window. After a while, a ticket was handed out.

"The train will start soon. Go to the backyard and find the car by yourself." The ticket sales aunt left her words coldly. Then he turned around and chatted with the other conductors in the window.

Jiang Xiaobai and Li Siyan did not care about the attitude of the ticket seller. Anyway, this is the case at this time.

When Jiang Xiaobai and Li Siyan found the car, there were already quite a few people in the car, and the driver was starting the car.

The old bus made a "burst" sound, and black smoke was blowing from behind its buttocks.

"Xiaobai, my things in Jianhua Village. Almost packed. When you go back. Pack me up and send it to the post office in the town, and then send it to the address I gave you."

Li Siyan looked back at Jiang Xiaobai and told him.

"Okay, I'll take it down. If you go back and the money is not enough, call the town post office. When I go back, I will say hello, let people call me, and I will send you the money."

"Well, don't worry, this thousand dollars is too much, I don't need it..."

"Let's go, get in the car." The driver honked the horn in the car again, and Jiang Xiaobai said with a smile.

Li Siyan nodded, turned his head just about to get into the car, suddenly turned around, threw himself into Jiang Xiaobai’s arms, and hugged Jiang Xiaobai tightly.

"You must come, I am waiting for you." Li Siyan whispered in Jiang Xiaobai's ear.

Later, there was a poem called "Once Upon a Time Slow", in which there was a sentence: "In the past, the sun became slow, cars, horses, and mail were all slow, so I could only love one person in my life."

sounds very romantic, but in this era, you can experience more sorrow besides romance.

Every time there is a difference, because of the inconvenience of communication and transportation, goodbye is nowhere in sight.

"I know, I must go." Jiang Xiaobai nodded.

"Dididi." The bus made a urging sound again, and the two let go, and Li Siyan turned to the bus.

The bus drove away suddenly with black smoke. Jiang Xiaobai stood by the platform, watching Li Siyan with hot tears in his eyes and something in his mouth, looking at the window of the car, waving his hands vigorously.

Jiang Xiaobai also waved his hands vigorously, saying goodbye silently in his mouth.

The car has gradually gone, until it disappears from sight, time seems to be frozen at this moment.

The girl waved her hands, shed tears, and shouted goodbye words, accompanied by the bus and slowly went away until she disappeared.

Jiang Xiaobai never felt this way. It was a short-term separation, but it was heartbreaking.

When Liu Aiguo came to greet Jiang Xiaobai, Jiang Xiaobai came back to his senses.

On the bus back to the county seat, Jiang Xiaobai was still in a heavy mood. Looking at the changing scenery on both sides of the road outside the car window, his mood gradually came out of the price atmosphere.

When I returned to Zhangxuan County, it was already noon. This time I had time and I was not in a hurry. Jiang Xiaobai took everyone to the old Zhang’s small restaurant for dinner.

Looking at Jiang Xiaobai bringing so many people, Lao Zhang was stunned for a moment, and then he burst into laughter.

"Xiaobai is here, and there are not enough tables and chairs. I will borrow some more. You will get it first." Lao Zhang said with a smile, and after confessing to Jiang Xiaobai, he walked outside.

There are only two or three tables in his small restaurant, and there are not so many chairs. A dozen people can't sit down at all.

Soon Lao Zhang and a middle-aged woman returned with a table and chair.

"This is your sister-in-law, this is Jiang Xiaobai." Lao Zhang gave a brief introduction, and then asked: "Xiaobai, what do you eat?"

"Hello sister-in-law, Brother Zhang can simply make some. Whatever you can do, you can eat enough, you can watch it."

Jiang Xiaobai said casually with a smile.

"Okay." Lao Zhang nodded, his face full of excitement, Jiang Xiaobai and the other acquaintances who came to eat in the neighborhood were different.

Jiang Xiaobai has always been generous, and with so many people, he can make at least a few yuan, even more than a dozen yuan, after this meal.

It's not surprising that both Liu Aiguo and Wang Xiaojun have followed Jiang Xiaobai, but other people are talking about it. They didn't expect someone to open a small restaurant at this time.

You don’t need food stamps or anything for meals, just give money, but everyone understands the existence of the black market.

Lao Zhang’s craftsmanship is still good, a few simple side dishes, plus the fragrant rice, make everyone full.

A total of 24 yuan was spent at checkout, which is less than two yuan per person on average.

But this meal has already spent a month's expenses for an ordinary middle-class family.
