【183】Play movie

Wu Daguang handed Li Tong the sachet embroidered by Sister Zhang: "This is all decades of craftsmanship, how do you look?"

Li Tong took the sachet and started to touch it, sighing: "It's really good. Craftsmanship is craftsmanship. No matter how good the machine is, it is not as good as craftsmanship."

"In one sentence, you can say it or not." Wu Daguang asked directly.

Li Tong nodded: "Is there any other way I can choose this craft?"

"You really want to catch it. In our place, women in every household can embroider, and this piece of embroidery is easy to solve." Wu Daguang said with a smile.

Afterwards, Wu Daguang greeted the stall owner one by one, led several designers to shop at the market, and then prepared to go back.

When they returned, they had to wait for the villagers to go back together. When they were waiting for the rest of the crowd, Wu Daguang saw a tractor from a distance. The truck behind the tractor was covered with a piece of cloth, and he looked at the things on it.

There was a bald man sitting in the front of the car holding a bowl of noodles. He couldn't remember who it was.

Wu Daguang patted Zhang Erlai who was eating candy: "Hey, look at the bald head, do we see him somewhere?"

Zhang Erlai looked up and looked indifferent: "There is a movie played in the town next door."

Wu Daguang wanted to ask something, but Zhang Erlai had already walked towards Liu Qi.

Wu Daguang shook his head helplessly, touched a few cigarettes in his pocket, and walked towards the bald head playing the movie.

The bald man just finished a bowl of noodles. For a man, a bowl of noodles is only enough to eat half a full meal. It is not easy to make some money these days, so you can save money no matter how you eat it home.

"Do you guys play a movie in the town tonight?" Wu Daguang asked on his own initiative.

The fat man was used to it, sitting on the tractor and was digesting: "I came back from the town next door, passed by here, wanted to watch a movie, wait for the New Year."

"We have to wait for the New Year."

"No, it's not the New Year."

"You're making a lot of money this night." Wu Daguang asked. In fact, playing movies can only be considered a side job, and it takes up a few hours in the evening to make money.

"Where, I can't starve to death. Now I have TV, and I can't make any money in this industry." The fat man is used to walking in several towns near him, so he can talk to anyone.

"To be honest, our village has never let go of a movie. I'm thinking about asking you to play the movie. I'm not here to tell you the price." Wu Daguang took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed over one.

The bald man was not vague. He took the cigarette and sat upright unconsciously.

"The old rule is fifteen yuan a night." The bald man made a bid, but he had to bargain anyway. It doesn't matter how much the price he said. What's important is that if he has a stupid old hat, he will bargain.

"How can you ask me to bargain? I'll ask you, I must be asking. I'm asking the villagers to watch a few movies in private. You can't kill me like this."

"How much did you say?"

Wu Daguang lowered his head and thought, and gestured with his hand a number eight.

"I'm going to lose all the money, I'm going to lose all the money."

"I'll give you eight or ten days, but I can't give you eighty. It's only three hours a day. You'll make eight dollars in three hours." This fat man is so slick. He can't raise such a fat man by relying on playing movies. He should have a main business. To put it bluntly, he can only make money by playing movies.

When the fat man heard that Wu Daguang was about to let him go for ten days, he moved his mind. It was almost autumn and his business was not good. He could not wait for business for most of the month. Even if he waited for business, it would be done in one or two days. Eighty yuan was enough for the New Year, and he could still buy a new dress for the family.

Wu Daguang saw the fat man in a daze and interrupted: "Hey, buddy, have you thought about it?"

The fat man came to his senses and pretended to be embarrassed: "Your price is too low. No matter who you ask for it, it's not the price. So, let's give in to each other, how about ten yuan?"

Wu Daguang shook his head: "Eight pieces, forget it if you can't."

Wu Daguang was about to give up and turned to the meeting.

one two three……

"Wait a minute, don't be anxious." The fat man jumped out of the car and took the initiative to catch up with Wu Daguang.

"What's wrong?" Wu Daguang pretended not to understand anything.

"Eighty is eighty, when will you go?"

Life is full of routines, and Wu Daguang's heart is pounding.

"If you don't live tonight, just tonight. If you put it for one night, I'll give you some money." Wu Daguang said.

"Sure, you are the employer, you have the final say, but you have to give me some deposit and insurance first."

Wu Daguang took out four dollars from his pocket and handed them over: "There is only so much in his pocket, does Xiawa Village know?"

"I know, there is a pork seller in your Xiawa Village who hangs his wife so much that she is angry. This matter has spread."

Wu Daguang didn't answer the conversation. He had participated in it indirectly, but he still didn't go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles.

"Okay, I'm determined. Just go and ask Wu Daguang in the village. Everyone in the village knows me."

When the bald man heard that it was Wu Daguang, his eyes widened: "You are Wu Daguang. I have heard that it is the one who sells pork. I heard that you are very righteous."

"That's all the past. I won't mention it anymore. After making an appointment, I'll leave first."

Chat with such a person and leave as long as he should, otherwise he can chat with you for three days and three nights.

We waited until the next episode, and the talented people were all together. A car of people returned to the village in a mighty way. On the way, we met a few people who took the bus.

When the villagers got off the bus at the entrance of the village, Wu Daguang took the initiative to greet him: "Everyone goes home and greet him. The movie will be played in our village at night. For ten consecutive days, everyone in the nearby family will also greet him."

In the village, it is rare to play movies. Some people do not hesitate to walk for a long time to watch a movie, but do nothing, just want a group of people to have fun.

In the afternoon, Zhang Erlai took a few college students around the village. Although the village is small, it is indeed a small village with hundreds of history. A grinding stone at the east end of the village has been built there. There are caves of different sizes. If you don’t have any scenery, you have to give a thumbs up.

In the evening, the bald man arrived as promised. Wu Daguang gave money and the village chief Zhang Baoshun arranged the book. It was a matter of giving the village a face. Which village nearby had to let the movie go? In the past, I had to travel to the town for a long time to watch a movie, and if you were far away, you had to drive a ox cart and stagger for a short while.

Before the opening of the movie, the villagers of Xiawa Village snatched the seats in front early, those who came early took the seats for those who came late, and those in the village left seats for relatives outside the village. The small Xiawa Village squeezed hundreds of villagers.

There was noisy before the screening, and everyone was talking about family matters. After the screening, there was no sound, and only the sound of the movie could be heard.

Wu Daguang and several college students were crowded in front, and the movie was halfway through. At a critical moment, Wu Daguang's elder brother rang out in a quiet atmosphere.

Wu Daguang took out his elder brother and saw that it was Wang Kun called. He stood up and shook his elder brother in his hands embarrassedly: "Sorry, there is a phone call."

"Daguang, please answer the phone quickly and don't delay serious matters." The village chief spoke.

Wu Daguang apologized to stay away from the crowd and answered the phone.
