Chapter 53: Changes in the Pig Farm
Mu Zhen, who rushed home from school, was seen by her sharp-eyed younger brother as soon as she entered the door.
"Brother, why is your face swollen?" asked Mu Bao a little curiously.
"Where is it swollen?" Mu Zhen touched her face, which was still a little hot, and asked rhetorically pretending to be calm.
He also said that it was not swollen, but it was so red that it was bulging. Mu Bao pointed to Mu Zhen's face and said.
"Don't talk nonsense, just now I was walking with my head down and bumped into a tree!" Mu Zhen made up a nonsense to deceive Mu Bao.
Mu Baoxin thought it was true, and ran to the house and said to Xiuhua, who was chopping vegetables: "Mother, my brother hit a tree while walking!"
When Mu Zhen heard what Mu Bao said to her mother, she glanced at Mu Bao in the room with the white of her eyes, and felt a little unhappy, so she walked into her room by herself, took a book and lay down on the table to think about it.
Wheat harvest into the end, all the wheat has been done to the grain warehouse, summer planting immediately kicked off, in the countryside at that time, is the best node to burn wheat stubble, the sun sets, by the breeze, I don't know who lit the wheat stubble in the field, at the beginning is just a little flame, just as the spark of the stars can burn the plain, instantly the small flame becomes a big fireworm, the wind helps the fire, the fire helps the wind, and soon the big firefly becomes a long fire dragon, and suddenly the fire overwhelms the sunset in the west, and it looks like a moving flame mountain from a distance.
The people who were close suddenly found that the fire had spread over the field and rushed to the breeding pig farm near the wheat field, the pigs in the breeding pig farm began to boil, and the pigs in the pigsty close to the pig pen screamed, Lao Zhao, who was the first to find it, did not dare to slack off, he took a bamboo broom and beat the flames, while shouting: "There is a fire! There is a fire! Quickly put out the fire!" The people in the village also shouted.
Dozens of people shouted in unison, thousands of people ran out of the house with pots and buckets, everyone ran to the pig farm together, and the village suddenly became lively, some poured water on the fire, beat with brooms, and some people took shovels to sprinkle soil, and children joined in the fun, shouting and running to see Xihan.
The fire quickly subsided, and everyone noticed that the top of the nearest pigsty in the wheat field had burned to the point that there were a few horizontal wooden supports, and the pigs inside had been let out by Lao Zhao, and the pigs were saved, and the pigsty was gone.
The fire was extinguished, everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to say, at this time everyone noticed that the owner of the breeding pig farm was not at the scene of the firefighting, and some people were very strange: "Don't Tiancheng still know about the fire in his breeding farm?"
Wang Tianbiao, who has fast legs in the village, is Tiancheng's own brother, he quickly ran to Tiancheng's house to report the news, there was no one at home, Wang Tianbiao was very anxious and disappointed, where did Tiancheng go? At this time, he remembered Lao Zhao who fed the pigs, he came back to his senses and ran to the pig farm, Lao Zhao was looking for the sow that jumped out of the pigsty with people.
"Where did my brother's family go!" Wang Tianbiao asked Lao Zhao.
"I don't know, he only said that he went to his relatives! He didn't say when he would come back, he just asked me to take care of the pigsty!" Lao Zhao said very honestly.
Wang Tianbiao didn't say anything, he knew that it stands to reason that his brother would not go too far in this busy time, and it was very likely that he would go to his father-in-law's house. I guess I'm coming back soon.
Wang Tianbiao and everyone together to find the sow back to the circle, the people in the village in groups of threes and twos, the discussion began, some people feel that the risk of investing in the breeding pig farm is too great, some people propose, if so irresponsible, simply withdraw the shares.
After all, it was the sixteenth round of the fifteenth month, the moon rose, and someone in the village noticed that Tiancheng was back.
Tiancheng asked inexplicably, "What are you all doing here?"
Everyone was silent, and a person came out of the crowd, it was his brother Wang Tianbiao, who pulled Tiancheng into the house: "Your pigsty is on fire, everyone comes to you to talk about it, someone may want to withdraw shares!"
"What kind of fire did you lose? Just kidding, how could there be a fire?" asked the second monk Tiancheng Zhang, puzzled.
Tianbiao explained the origin of the matter in detail, and then looked at Tiancheng as if he was soliciting opinions.
"What a big deal this can be, and it doesn't cause much damage!" Tiancheng said lightly.
"Do you think it's not a big deal, there are already people in the village who want to withdraw their shares, it's not a big deal?" asked Tianbiao suspiciously.
Tiancheng didn't look at the skymark, and went out and said to the people standing in the courtyard: "I just learned about the fire, this fire is also burning, and there is not much loss, do you trust me? I dare not guarantee how much you can earn with me at the end of the year, but if there are people who want to withdraw their shares now, I can give them back, and you won't regret it then!"
The crowd was silent, and they suddenly had no idea about Tiancheng's statement, they stood in a daze for a few minutes, and some people began to sneak out of the crowd quietly, went out and went home, and the interested ones followed closely behind, and withdrew, only a few of the people who had just shouted for withdrawal were still standing there, and they didn't know what to say.
"If you have nothing to do, you can go into the house and sit, if you don't sit, you can go home and rest!" As soon as Tiancheng finished speaking, the last few people in the courtyard also quietly turned around and left.
Tiancheng went back to the house and kept pondering, no one could say whether this fire was good or bad, he didn't go to the pigsty immediately, he believed that Lao Zhao might be blaming himself there!
Tiancheng was thinking about it when footsteps sounded outside the gate again.
