Live in nanjing, the capital city, editing manuscripts, sitting in his office all day immersed in papers, I haven't seen for years unicycle this fellow villager often use the human vehicle.After the founding of the People's Republic of China, my father went from a poor orphan to a social businessman in the north of the country, pushing the wheelbarrow to the village to sell the goods to the peasants.From then on, he and the unicycle became undissoluble.I don't know how the vehicle of the unicycle used to be more popular in China than it is now.But it did give the people of the day a great deal of convenience in carrying cargo, with its light, nimble, and applicable features.The unicycle, unlike the two-wheeled flatboard, is fitted with A rubber wheel under the a-frame and A three-point balance between the two legs of A man while he walks.When pushing a car, you must on the two handlebar with a cloth tied on a one inch wide charged or discarded motor belt over his shoulder as a lift loop, so can reduce the bearing force of two arms.It is said that powerful people use wheelbarrows to carry heavy loads!In the mid - 1950 - s, the state to private businessmen, rural set up the supply and marketing cooperatives, father was incorporated into the tissue, in a remote town of the region of salesroom, did a shop assistant.In the early stage of the start-up, the supply and marketing agency transferred all the goods by the wheelbarrow.Hard entrepreneurship, hone his perseverance, bears hardships and stands hard work at that time he was thirty years old, pushing up the unicycle body as light as yan, aid, and s, often praised by leadership.Later, the supply and marketing agency further organized some small vendors, and established cooperative stores.The director of the supply and marketing association arranged his father to be the head of the leading group in the store.Followed by a national political movement, the father is a pragmatic businessman, he is not good at play for the pioneer to political and cope, thought can't keep up with the trend of The Times ", had to resign from the post of team leader and was sent to a shop the shop to do the assistant, even the SMC can't go back.He and an old lee, who is over ten years older than him, worked as colleagues at a storefront and were in love with each other.As a young man, the father did all the hard work that came into town.Every three or five days he was going to the town for a shipment.For the depart early in the morning, mother father some Fried eggs, Fried poured break the eggs into the pan fry a few times, sprinkled with sugar and then turn over a few times, it is a bowl of yellow, oil with frangipani, sweet and delicious, to add my father's physical fitness.The father, who had been unsuccessful in the operation, fell ill and was not as strong as before.After breakfast, not yet to work, Lao li came from the neighboring village, and my father held my hand and said, "son, go, help me the unicycle."I hurried to the shop.He squeeze with two hands on the first car wheels, check the tire pressure, picked up a pump on the door a few gas, gas mouth squash with the hand again and see no matter, just push the car to the door, with difficulty will be filled with eggs, castor beans and other agricultural products boxes on the move.Because the wheelbarrow was easy to side down, my father instructed me to stand by the side of the car to help the car.After each side, he tied a few boxes of boxes with a rope and then put the other side.When everything was ready, he turned to me and said, "study hard at home, and listen to your mother."Car will loop to shoulder a set, his hands clenched handlebar, bow, astride on supporting the unicycle, painfully in pit concave uneven country dirt road, step by step to more than ten miles away in town...Then I stood by the side of the road and watched my father fade away.On the way, the father was pleased to meet some of the villagers to bring him to town.And in the evening, when his father wore an evening when the car back into a wide variety of goods, folks around the counter as soon as the fresh, ask "accounting" Chen and meet sometimes will pay money to buy something.At that time, the villagers referred to the "accountant" as the "accountant" for the people who paid for the public works.S is "accounting" to the countryside to send letters postman is "accounting", even visited sell pork "accounting", I heard a canteen cook cooks in the enterprise is on the way home fellow villager called "accounting".Yes, accounting is the amount of money, so people are so envious of the wages!And there are many people who get paid to jump the dragon gate, unable to find the north, high up, see the old people in the past love to ignore, as if a superior.But my father has never been so friendly with the villagers.Sixties and seventies, it is lack of goods period, father with his good popularity, each time to replenish onr's stock, in the town will make some matches, white sugar, kerosene, soap, smoke from item back, fine wine, take turns to ZhongXiangQin use.
