Chapter 453: A Veteran of the Vietnam War?

453

This is an old M1 Garand rifle with a capacity of eight rounds, high reliability, high shooting accuracy, and easy disassembly and cleaning. During World War II, it was the main infantry weapon of the American army.

The famous American general George Patton described it as "the greatest combat weapon ever seen."

Now this old gun is obviously old enough to be exhibited in museums, and the years have left many indelible marks on its body, just looking at the gripped traces on the handle, you can know that this old gun has accompanied his owner for I don't know how many days and nights.

"Could it be that Nguyen Mei Zhao's father is a veteran of the Vietnam War?"

Just when Liu Xinghao was shaking his mind, Ah Ming, this kid, finally came back.

He pushed open the door and sat down at the table, picked up the bowl and drank the bowl of soup first.

"There are no rules, Brother Xinghao hasn't eaten yet, why did you eat it yourself?" Seeing that her brother's forehead was covered with sweat, Ruan Meizhao hurriedly took a towel to wipe his sweat. She takes care of this younger brother very well.

Ah Ming's face turned red, and he hurriedly explained to Liu Xinghao: "I'm sorry, Brother Xinghao, I'm also thirsty, just now I went to pass the word for Village Chief Ding, and the whole village ran all over again, but I was tired." Ah Ming now obeyed Ruan Meizhao's words, and immediately shrunk his neck and looked at Liu Xinghao with an innocent face. In front of Liu Xinghao, he was obviously still a little jealous.

"Spread the word, what is the word?" Liu Xinghao didn't care, came to the table and sat down, and picked up the chopsticks. "Come, talk while eating. ”

The village chief said that tomorrow morning there will be important things to discuss with everyone under the big locust tree at the entrance of the village, and each family should choose a representative to participate. Ah Ming took the towel and wiped his sweat, and handed the empty soup bowl to his sister again.

"This Ding Zhaokun, the new official wants to shake his majesty. Who picked him up today? Have you seen that white Land Rover before?"

Ah Ming and Ruan Mei Zhao both shook their heads, and it was the first time they had seen the Land Rover.

"By the way, Brother Xinghao! When I met the village chief just now, I saw that he was holding a bag in his hand, which was heavy, and I didn't know what it contained. Armin gulped down his meal, muttering about what he had just seen.

"What kind of bag?"

Ah Ming put down his rice bowl and gestured with his hand: "It's about the size of a basin, boxy, black bag." ”

As soon as he heard this, Liu Xinghao had already guessed most of the plot, and couldn't help but sneer: "Hehe, such a big bag? Village Chief Ding has made a windfall this time! I want to see what kind of moth this Village Chief Ding will conjure up tomorrow morning!"

After Ding Zhaokun was picked up bizarrely, he suddenly returned to Wangbei Village with a bag. This strange behavior, the discerning person will not guess what is in the bag. The person who can use such a big deal to win over the head of a small mountain village, hehe, if you think about it, there should only be Chapo. Anyway, this village chief Ding got this windfall today, and it is estimated that he should be so happy that he can't sleep, right?

…………

In fact, this time he was really guessed by Liu Xinghao, saying that after Ding Zhaokun returned home, he was happy and surprised, he felt unsafe wherever he put the bag of money, he was afraid of being bitten by rats under the bed, and he was afraid that someone would steal it when he put it in the cabinet. In the end, he pressed under his pillow, didn't dare to sleep all night, and stayed up until dawn with his eyes open.

After the rooster crowed three times, Ding Zhaokun finally got a little tired, but before he could sleep for a while, he was disturbed by the noise coming from the yard.

When I opened my eyes, I saw that the sky outside was already bright. Ding Zhaokun hurriedly got up from the bed and rushed to the courtyard to take a look, it turned out that Ah Si had already gotten up and inadvertently stepped on a food bowl for feeding chickens in the courtyard.

"Dad, you're up. Ah Si took the initiative to say hello to his father.

"Can I not get up, you jingle early in the morning, and tell me how to sleep!" Ding Zhaokun didn't close his eyes all night, and after squinting for a while, he was woken up by Ah Si, and his temper was naturally very bad.

He reprimanded Ah Si without a head and a brain, and closed the door of his room.

Seeing his father's abnormal behavior, Ah Si asked puzzledly, "Dad, why are you closing the door in broad daylight?"

"You don't care, don't go anywhere today, just guard the door for me here, do you understand?" Thinking about what he said last night, he was going to the village entrance to hold a meeting for everyone, Ding Zhaokun couldn't take the money box with him. Suddenly put so much money in the family, it is not okay to have no one to take care of the house.

When I came to the entrance of the village, I saw that a lot of villagers had gathered under the big locust tree. This is the first time that Ding Zhaokun has convened a meeting of the people in the village since he took office, and everyone has given him enough face, originally it was said that a family only needs to come to one person, but as a result, many families are all out of the family, and they all want to come and hear what important things Ding Zhaokun has to inform everyone.

When he came to the big locust tree, Ding Zhaokun raised his legs and stood on a stool, and suddenly stood a lot taller than everyone else. He glanced around the crowd and saw Huo Jingui and Liu Xinghao standing on the periphery, and felt a little uneasy in his heart. Everyone else is so confused, it's these two people who are the hardest to do!

But since they have already arrived here, they have to be dealt with if they are difficult! Ding Zhaokun cleared his throat and said loudly in the posture of a village chief:

"Folks, please be quiet, let me say a few words. This year, the crops in our village are growing very well, and in a few days, it will be time to harvest. We farmers are all counting on the land under our feet to eat, and people can rest all year round, but this land cannot be left idle. So today, I, Ding Laohan, have called everyone here, not for anything else, but to brainstorm with you and discuss our planting plan for the next season. ”

"Hey, I thought it was something important, but it turned out to be this ......"

"What's there to discuss? In the past, it wasn't always the old village chief who told us to plant something, so we planted what we planted. ”

"That's right, since Village Chief Ding is now in charge, then you can make an idea, should we grow potatoes or corn?"

The villagers are talking about everything, but obviously there are few backbones, and everyone is looking at Village Chief Ding to speak.

This situation is exactly the same as Ding Zhaokun expected, he waved his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and then continued: "Whether this is planting potatoes or corn, I don't think it's interesting." Not to mention that there is not much money, you have to wait in the field all day long. I have a proposal, let's grow something that makes a lot of money and doesn't have to take care of it, what do you think?"
