The Era of Hard Work

Generally speaking, pickpockets more than ten years later, in terms of ferocity, are enough to give shoes to this era.

Lu Dong has the impression that last year or this year, the high school class teacher went to Quannan to study, and lost the bag on the bus. It is said that it was stolen at first, but after it was discovered later, three people snatched it from him abruptly.

No one dared to speak because there were knives.

It's not that Lu Dong is too cautious, but that the social security situation in this era is simply incomparable with what it will be four or five years later.

Otherwise, there will be no crackdown.

Encountering a pickpocket again is a high-probability event. If you are targeted and robbed by someone, should you resist or admit cowardice?

It is not advisable to bring a knife or something, and it is also very risky to oneself.

It seems that there is already a bank card at this time, and I have a vague impression that both Quannan and Qingzhao have ATMs of the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, but deposits are a bit troublesome, and it is really impossible to open a card and deposit it in time.

It's just a bit of a hassle.

Lu Dong cast his net in another place and dragged a few leeches up. Just as he was thinking about this, he saw a jujube tree outside the river embankment.

Have!

Don't talk about knives, even weapons are not something that good young people should consider!

As a preparatory advanced individual, we must have a positive ideological awareness.

Therefore, Lu Dong decided to temporarily keep some pets, such as dogs, cats, birds, turtles, mice, etc., are too vulgar!

To raise is to raise unusual, outstanding, and others dare not raise.

Lu Dong put down his fishing net, went to the jujube tree, and looked carefully for a while.

This wild tree, no one uses potion, there are so many itchy peppers!

This is the itching pepper that Lu Dong is interested in, and it is estimated that no one in the whole of Quannan keeps itching peppers as pets.

But this worm has bristly hairs all over its body, and the hairs are inherently poisonous. When it is touched, the redness, swelling and pain are mild, and it may hurt others or itself.

For example, if you find something to put in your trouser pocket, once it falls out, it will be a lot of fun.

Therefore, the selected pet cage must be tall.

Lu Dong thought of something good, went back to the triangular dam, and picked up the hard cigarette case that Lu Lanlan had thrown away.

Put the itchy hot peppers in it, and cover the box well, so that the bugs can't push it open, and the bristles can't penetrate it.

In addition, you can also take it out at any time to put itchy peppers... well, let it go.

It doesn't matter if you die, the dead tickle is still full of charm.

Lu Dong tried a hard cigarette case, the lid of which could be fastened. He ran to the poplar tree under the embankment, broke off a dead branch, and made it into temporary chopsticks. He went back to the sour jujube tree, and chose a few itchy hot peppers about two centimeters long. , Hold your breath carefully, and clip it into the hard cigarette case.

Throwing the stick into the river, picking two leaves and putting them in the box, and tightening the lid of the box, Lu Dong dared to breathe normally.

Not because of anything else, the bristles of itchy hot peppers are easy to fall off, blow it off and fall on your hands, and you need to put tape, soap, and toothpaste on it when you go back.

Not daring to put it directly into his trouser pocket, fearing that it might fall out, Lu Dong found a longer dog's tail grass, bundled it vertically and held it in his hand.

When it was getting dark, Hu Chunlan came to the river to ask Lu Dong to have dinner, and the two of them went back to the orchard with fishing net water bags and other things.

The catfish were kept in the large water tank in the orchard, and a total of five were caught, and one was given to Lu Lanlan, and the largest one was more than three and a half catties.

The other fish, the largest grass carp, Hu Chunlan planned to send to Lu Zhenlin, and the miscellaneous fish and Ga Ya took them back to the old street, and the neighbors gave some.

Over the years, the neighbors in the neighborhood have helped his family a lot.

Not to mention anything else, when there is a lot of work in the orchard, they will come to help if they call.

For example, Ruoyuan needs to apply insect repellent potion again. Lu Dong met someone on the old street in the past few days, and someone told him to let him know when the time came, and he would bring a sprayer to help.

In the society of human relations, there are always coming and going.

There were fewer leeches than yesterday, and even the bait nests were brought into the net, and there were only about fifty leeches.

After dinner, Hu Chunlan went to the village, and Lu Dong waited until it was completely dark, turned on the flashlight, carried a bucket, and went into the fruit forest.

Compared to last night when we were up and down the tree and struggling to find them back and forth, tonight is really much easier. You just need to squat down, pick up the cicada monkeys one by one, and throw them into the bucket.

No cicada monkey can climb over the natural barrier of wide tape and climb to a high place.

This not only saves time and effort, but also greatly increases output.

However, for Cicada in the orchard, it can be called a bad move to cut off children and grandchildren.

These are not what Lu Dong thinks about, not to mention anything else, knowing it is a pest in the orchard.

Lu Dong didn't ask his old lady to help, and he caught it by himself all night. By twelve o'clock, he had gained a lot more than last night.

Knowing that he catches all the monkeys by himself, I generally have an impression that there are more than 600 monkeys.

Back in the old house, Lu Dong remembered something, and hung up the horizontal axis of his grandfather.

Of all the things that were sent to Zhengda, this was the only genuine one, but that Professor Liang boasted too much.

His grandfather's handwriting is quite famous in the village, but in Qingzhao County, his family name is unknown.

Lu Dong went to take a shower, and when he was rubbing the mud, he found that his hands were quite rough. He had been fishing and pulling nets for the past few days, and his hands had a lot of calluses.

After washing the clothes, I went back to the house to sleep. After a busy day, I almost fell asleep with my eyes closed.

At dawn, Lu Dong woke up on time, washed up and rode his bicycle to the chicken farm first, but today Uncle Tie and Auntie Tie didn't kill the chickens, because the broiler chickens from the chicken farm were about to be slaughtered.

This kind of thing can't be forced. Lu Dong went to the orchard to have breakfast, packed up his things and set off. Compared with yesterday, he had the same amount of money.

He brought his new pets with him.

It is absolutely impossible to have a trousers pocket, so Lu Dong put it in the outer interlayer of the handbag containing the leeches.

"Be careful on the road." Hu Chunlan warned.

Lu Dong stepped on his bicycle: "Understood."

Hu Chunlan warned again: "If anyone asks, just say go play in the city."

Traditional concepts are not easy to change, especially the older generation.

It was still very hot today, when Lu Dong came to Shilibao Market, he still went to the faucet to wash his face first, otherwise he would be covered with mud and sweat marks, and he would be ashamed to see others.

With yesterday’s transaction, Brother Niu’s side went relatively smoothly. Today’s price dropped slightly, with 14 yuan and 5 yuan per catty, more than 6 catties for Zhizhihou, and Lu Dong got 92 yuan.

Lu Dong was holding a black handbag and was about to leave, but Brother Niu called out: "Little brother, wait a minute!"

"What's wrong?" Lu Dong turned around.

Brother Niu went back to the house, then came out again, and threw a bottle of water to Lu Dong: "Drink on the way."

Lu Dong took it, it turned out to be bottled purified water, put it in a bag, and said, "Thanks, Brother Niu."

There are more goods sold, and the treatment is also upgraded? interesting.

"I'm leaving first, come back tomorrow."

Lu Dong picked up his handbag, left Shilipu Market just like yesterday, and walked to the platform to take a train.

When we came to the intersection near the platform, the light just turned green. Just as we were about to go forward, the roar of the motorcycle engine came, and someone behind reminded: "Be careful!"

Lu Dong's script did not go forward, let alone move forward at this moment.

The sound of the engine blasting the street like a will-o'-the-wisp roared past.

A black motorcycle that looked like a racing car was not far ahead, rushing past the vehicle before the green light.

This motorcycle seems to have been specially modified so that the sound can blow up the streets.

Running a red light! Hurt self and others.

Lu Dong turned his head and said politely, "Thank you."

Looking at it, he found that the person who reminded him had seen it before. On the bus yesterday, the short-haired woman with black-rimmed glasses reminded him that the West Market was here.

The short-haired woman nodded her chin with a mole: "You're welcome."

She passed Lu Dong, carrying her satchel, and walked towards the bus platform.

Lu Dong also walked over there.

When we came to the platform, there were many people waiting for the train, and the platform was not big, so Lu Dong could only stand behind.

The short-haired woman is also here. She glanced at Lu Dong, probably remembering meeting her yesterday, and asked casually, "Still going to the West Market?"

She is also from the countryside, so she doesn't dislike Lu Dong.

Lu Dong replied, "Go to the West Market."

The short-haired woman looked at Lu Dong slightly, and her eyes fell on his handbag: "Business?"

Lu Dong thought for a while: "Go sell things."

When the bus came, the crowd swarmed up, while Lu Dong and the short-haired woman fell behind again.

During the morning rush hour, there were a lot of people in the car, and when Lu Dong got on the car, there were already a lot of people behind the car, so he had to stand near the exit door.

The bus moved, swayed, swayed back and forth.

At this moment, the short-haired woman squeezed over from the front. Lu Dong saw her struggling to grasp the handrail, so he moved back a little to make room for her.

"Thank you." The short-haired woman nodded slightly to Lu Dong again. .

Lu Dong smiled back and said nothing. In the hot summer, the bus is like a can of sardines.

When this train passed the science and technology market and the central hospital, a large number of people got off the bus, but there were fewer people on the bus, and the degree of congestion was slightly less.

Someone pushed in from the front and stood next to the short-haired woman.

Lu Dong glanced subconsciously, and immediately looked away.

The man was impressive, yesterday's short pickpocket.

Remember he has a partner...

Lu Dong lowered his head slightly, not wanting the short pickpocket to notice him, and subconsciously stood in front of him with the bag in his hand.

The short pickpocket didn't pay attention to him at all, and obviously had no impression of him.

The bus came to a platform again, some people got off and some people got on the bus, bumping into people was unavoidable.

Lu Dong was touched and turned around. Because of his height advantage, he happened to see the short pickpocket standing lazily, but actually staring at the short-haired woman's bag.

Although there is no hands-on, it seems that the goal has been determined.

Lu Dong remembered that the short-haired woman called on her cell phone yesterday, and if she had a cell phone with her, it must be in her bag.

In an instant, two voices popped out of Lu Dong's mind, one voice told him to mind his own business and not ask for trouble; the other voice reminded him twice before and after the short-haired woman.

Yesterday, the short-haired woman reminded him that the West Market was here.

Today, the short-haired woman reminded him that the motorcycle ahead ran a red light.

This is genuine kindness.

If it's a stranger who doesn't matter, forget it...

There were a lot of people getting out of the car, and there was a bit of space in the back, so Lu Dong said to the short-haired woman, "Sister, there is a lot of space in the back, let's go to the back."

The short-haired woman was stunned for a moment, and the two of them just exchanged a few words, it seems that they are not familiar with each other, right? But she has accumulated a wealth of social experience in her profession, so she nodded immediately: "OK."

She was the first to walk to the back.

Lu Dong purposely squeezed his body sideways, and the black handbag fell on the side next to the short pickpocket. If anything happened, a bag could hit someone in the face, and the bugs inside would probably crawl out.

The bus can be turned into a biochemical attack site.

The short pickpocket took a step towards Lu Dong, and with a foreign accent that was barely audible, he warned sinisterly: "Be smart!" His hands in his trouser pockets were turned outward, revealing a copper-colored knife handle: "Otherwise, I will You bleed!"

Lu Dong didn't speak, just stared at him, but didn't mess around, and retreated step by step into the rear compartment.

Probably because Lu Dong was tall and strong, the short pickpocket also felt the pressure, so he turned around and squeezed to the other side.
