Chapter 46: Flood Control Walls

Ye Rong drove towards the town under the mountain, and Lin Wei shrank in the passenger seat, not daring to breathe.

After exiting Sangzhuang, follow the cement road for about two kilometers, and there is a fork in the straight road. At the ends of these two forks in the road, the shadow of the building can be faintly seen. Ye Rong looked around at the geographical location and could probably determine the names of these two villages, if so many years have passed, the names of the villages have not changed, they are "Chen Village" and "Shangao Village" respectively.

Nowadays, these two villages are also the appearance of the new socialist countryside, and they both belong to the Sangzhuang Brigade, and if Ye Rong wants to clean up the garbage in the future, it will also include the garbage of these two villages.

There are also several other villages on the beam of Zhongtiao Mountain, Ye Rong knows the name, which are "Yaoyuan Village", "Weijiazhuang", and so on.

The problem that Ye Rong is facing now is ...... At this fork in the road, which way down the hill is the right one?

He could only look at Lin Wei and asked, "Hey, which way is going down the mountain?" ”

Lin Wei clenched her collar, frightened, and didn't dare to say anything, only stretched out a finger and lightly pointed to the left......

The car continued down the hill.

"Hey, there's a fork in the road again!"

Pointing to the right......

Finally.

Under Lin Wei's guidance, Ye Rong successfully drove the car to the town.

Boy!

It is worthy of the market day, merchants from all over the world set up stalls on the street, and consumers from all over the world gather on the street.

It's simply crowded, busy, and hot.

Ye Rong was driving a tricycle, and as soon as the front wheel drove into the crowded street, he slammed into the brakes!

There are a lot of people on the streets, and I don't dare to drive......

Ye Rong's driving skills are not very standardized and correct after all, from an open-top tricycle to a high-end tricycle with a closed cab, the rearview mirror is not very good at observing, the field of vision is not wide, in the barren mountain old village, there are few people, I feel that I can still let go of the restraint to drive.

Suddenly coming to the overcrowded town, old men, children, women and children, riding electric cars, motorcycles, tricycles, cars, and passing heavy trucks, the sound of steam whistles is one after another, the sound is endless, and the shouts come from all directions......

For the safety of others, in order to avoid traffic jams and collisions, Ye Rong put up a reverse gear, parked the car on the side of the road at the entrance to the street, and got out of the car with Lin Wei.

The two of them walked faster on the street than others drove, which made Ye Rong feel how wise his choice was.

Ye Rong walked through the crowd......

The field of vision is dazzling, all kinds of vegetables, melons and fruits, daily necessities, clothes, toys, snacks, tools...... Dazzled.

There are various buildings, shops, hardware stores, electrical appliance stores, banks, mobile phone stores, grain and oil stores, supermarkets on both sides of the street...... There are too many things for the eye to take in.

Ye Rong was dazzled, the changes in the town in the past 66 years are even worse than in the countryside!

Before crossing, Ye Rongrong returned to his hometown, took the mountain path, and of course passed the township street. 66 years ago, it was just a dirt road, there were a few houses on the side of the road, there were not many people at all, the war had just ended, and the people in the chaos were scattered, and it was very desolate. In the middle of nowhere, the view is of course very open, and you can even see a temple on the hillside on the east side of the dirt road.

Sixty-six years later, the streets are lined with shops on the lowest two floors, and even seven or eight storey buildings...... I don't know how many times more prosperous!

After the prosperity, Ye Rong is more or less sad, the changes in the mountain village, at least there are traces to follow, you can still find the abandoned ruins of the year, and you can see the places full of memories.

And the changes in the township, the replacement of the old and the new, there is no trace, and the eyes are full of unfamiliar pictures, without even the slightest memory......

When Ye Rong walked through the gap between the buildings, he couldn't help but look at the hillside on the east side of the street, hoping to see a little familiar picture and resonate with the memories in his heart...... There will be an ancient temple......

However, Ye Rong didn't see the temple!

All you can see is a row of defensive walls made of large boulders that resemble low walls, blocking all view of the hillside behind the street......

"What is this?"

Ye Rong was a little shocked, it was like a fortification built during the Anti-Japanese War!

And it's very long, and at first glance it has a little taste of the Great Wall!

In the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the War of Liberation, there were no fortifications of such a scale here, and after the victory of the war, Ye Rong returned to his hometown, where there was still nothing.

At what point did it take a lot of effort to build such a thing? What is it for? Could it be that after liberation, there was still a war here?

"That's the flood wall...... Many years ago, during the flood relief, the flood wall was repaired to prevent the streets of the town from being washed away by floods, although the flood did not rush through at all, and the flood wall has not been used since it was repaired...... It's better to prevent problems before they happen......"

Ye Rong looked at Lin Wei in surprise, it was the first time she took the initiative to speak and help Ye Rong explain.

Ye Rong praised: "There is progress! Finally starting to speak? ”

Lin Wei still blushed, lowered her head, and quietly glanced around...... All around are looking at each other......

Watched!

The audience's eyes all fell on Ye Rong and Lin Wei.

But Ye Rong, a wild man with big nerves and super thick skin, didn't care about these gazes at all.

But Lin Wei cares!

It's so shy to be watched...... But Ye Rong kept standing and didn't leave, staring at the flood control wall in the distance, and asked what it was?

In order to leave the encirclement of onlookers as soon as possible, Lin Wei could only take the initiative to speak for the first time, help Ye Rong answer questions, and then quickly leave this place of right and wrong!

"We ...... Let's go. ”

Lin Wei spoke in a low voice, and at the end, she added, "You go and buy you a dress to change into, your return rate is too high...... And it's ugly, it's dirty. ”

Ye Rong looked around when he heard this, and sure enough, the villagers passing by were staring at him hard.

This old PLA uniform is still very attractive.

From time to time, onlookers whispered.

"It's not ugly!"

Ye Rong retorted: "This is the most righteous and proud military uniform!" I don't want to replace it! Clothes should be worn, a new year, an old year, and another three years for sewing and mending......"

Ye Rong didn't care about the onlookers and whispers of those passers-by, and led Lin Wei to stride forward.

Passing by an early stall, the two sat down, ate a few oil cakes, drank two bowls of tofu brain, and continued shopping......

Passing by a mobile phone store!

Ye Rong suddenly pulled Lin Wei to the store, and said as he walked: "Lin Wei, I want to buy a smartphone, you can help me choose a cheap and easy to use!" ”

"The copycat machine is cheap and easy to use...... Lin Wei didn't have a good airway.

"Then buy a copycat! The brand name of Shanzhai is really good, it feels a bit gangster and domineering! Ye Rong nodded in praise.

"......" Lin Wei was speechless...... It is obvious that Ye Rong has misunderstood the meaning of the word "cottage".

"By the way, is the cottage domestic?" Ye Rong added: "I want to buy domestic ones!" National pride must be strong, not foreign brands. ”

Lin Wei nodded, "It's domestic." "You're quite patriotic......"

"Buy!" Ye Rong finally clapped his head.

“……”

Lin Wei hesitated for a long time, carefully watched several mobile phones in the mobile phone store, carefully selected for Ye Rong, and finally did not choose a copycat mobile phone, but chose a very hard domestic mobile phone with a high cost-effective price of 900 yuan.

The reason why I didn't choose the cottage was that Lin Wei was too kind and couldn't bear to harm Ye Rong.

As a savage, it is not easy for Ye Rong to grow so big, and he doesn't understand the mobile phone, so don't pit him...... If it was Ye Yu who followed Ye Rong to shop today, maybe she would be pitted, Ye Yu, a little girl, has a lot of bad thoughts! almost took away all of Ye Rong's 23 silver dollars!

I bought a mobile phone, and then I got a mobile phone number.

Lin Wei knew that Ye Rong didn't have a hukou and no ID card, so she took out her ID card and helped him get a mobile phone number......

mobile phone number and phone charge, and spent 100 yuan on Ye Rong.

1000 yuan is gone.

But Ye Rong didn't care about money, when Lin Wei helped him put the mobile phone card into the mobile phone!

After turning on the phone, Ye Rong couldn't put it down with the newly bought mobile phone, poked the glowing screen with his fingers, and kept swiping up and down, left and right, feeling very magical and excited......

"Lin Wei, how do you dial the phone number?" Ye Rong was eager to make a phone call to experience the feeling of high-tech communication that was stronger than telegraph.

"This." Lin Wei helped click on the dial icon, and then the number field popped up......

Ye Rong immediately flipped out his sleeves, found Ye Yu's phone number on the sleeve, and dialed it number by number, "Lin Wei, why didn't you dial it?" ”

"After entering the number, there is also the click of the dial button, which is the button......"

Lin Wei helped to complete the operation, and then she was very curious, who was Ye Rong's number dialed? Why do you write your phone number on your sleeve? Could it be someone particularly close? Is it a girl? Of course, there will be no jealousy in my heart, at least Lin Wei will not admit it!

"I'm sorry......" Sure enough, a girl's voice came from the phone!

Ye Rong excitedly learned what others looked like when they called, pointed the phone to his ear, and shouted at the top of his voice, "Hey!!" Hey, hey----" Ye Rong shouted loudly, causing the clerks and customers in the mobile phone store to look sideways, Lin Wei tilted her head to the side, pretending not to know this wild man.

Ye Rong didn't care, and listened to the voice in the mobile phone...... "The phone you dialed is not in the service area for the time being, please dial again later......"

"Hello? Xiaoyu is me, why is it not in the service area? It's not the sound of light rain! ”

“……”

Lin Wei almost collapsed!

She understood, it should be Ye Yu's mobile phone number......

Ye Yu!!

I heard that Ye Rong and Ye Yu have a good relationship, it seems to be true. Of course she wasn't jealous, Lin Wei still wouldn't admit it.

She just glanced at Ye Rong, this bastard savage, Ye Yu was at least ten years younger than him, and he actually liked this kind of semi-developed little girl......

Ye Rong was still "hey, hey, hey" at his mobile phone.

And the phone has changed to English "Sorry, the_number_you_dialed_balbalbal......"

"How can there be bird talk?"

Ye Rong took the phone off his ear and looked at Lin Wei, waiting for an explanation......

"Maybe Ye Yu is in the back mountain, there is no signal, so he is not in the service area." Lin Wei guessed.

"Who is the girl who is talking in the phone with a sweet and beautiful voice now?" Ye Rong asked excitedly.

“……”

Lin Wei was speechless, "It's a robot!" ”
