小學一年級·討價還價外傳(2010 Another Bargain)
2010-07-07
車停在玩具反斗城(Toys R Us)門口,娃兒坐在裡面進退兩難——手頭僅有$10.5,可《星球大戰·原力釋放》遊戲光盤要20塊大洋。老天爺也來攪和:小暑剛至,華氏102o ─105o /攝氏38.9o ─40.6o 的熱浪把心潮起伏的娃兒烘烤得六神無主。媽媽出了個主意——退掉剛買的《星球大戰•克隆戰爭》,加上小金盒裡的鈔票,換新遊戲綽綽有餘。可娃兒不折不扣:這不成了“狗熊掰玉米棒子”嗎?撿一個必得丟一個?
娃兒從記憶中悟出一着:“媽媽,您能不能像從前一樣?”“不勞而獲?”媽媽打趣。“您先替我墊上?”“ 透支未來所得?”“ 這樣”,他解釋道:“才能立刻買下遊戲光盤!”“怎麼攢足積蓄還清借款?”“我保證每天多讀一本書!”“可你前一天讀書掙的錢,常常第二天就花個精光。”媽媽翻出舊帳。暑假伊始,媽媽便提交了實驗計劃:讀一本小小說得1塊錢,講出情節再加一毛,複述故事追加一毛——少讀少得,多讀多得,絕不封頂;但早晨若讓媽媽幫忙着裝,穿衣服扣一塊、穿襪子扣兩毛——小懶小罰,大懶大罰,嚴懲不貸。
“我怎樣才能擁有這個遊戲呢?”娃兒還在嘀咕。而我坐在駕駛座上,看他為了一張光盤在10塊錢 與20塊錢 之間盤算、討價、承諾、被翻舊帳、重新盤算——七歲的經濟學,就這樣在空調嗡嗡作響的車廂里開始了。錢對他意味着什麼?是靠“有錢能使鬼推磨”的神力刺激他負薪掛角?還是依“今朝有酒今朝醉”的天性任他雲捲雲舒?我猜都不是。他正在學習的,不是錢的價值,而是“想要”與“得到”之間那段必須由自己走完的距離。那段距離里,有閱讀、有積累、有放棄、有等待——而那張光盤,不過是這段旅程的第一張路標。後來他真的攢夠了錢,買了那張光盤。當他捧着小金盒走向收銀台時,我忽然明白:那20塊錢里,藏着遠比遊戲更珍貴的東西——是他第一次完整地走完一條從“想要”到“得到”的路。而這條路,他以後還要走很多很多次。
