Chapter 119: Dream (2)
Walking out of the courtyard, neither of them spoke, and walked straight to the front.
The time in the countryside is still relatively leisurely, especially during the Chinese New Year, when there is nothing to do, three or five friends sit together in the sun and chat, which is also a very good leisure. And in this process, some news will naturally be passed on slowly.
"You know what? A big thing happened last night! In front of a courtyard, several people were gathering, and one of them said mysteriously.
"What's the big deal, let's talk about it!" No matter what it is, it's so boring to be idle anyway, and it's good to have some things to do.
"You don't know, a strange thing happened yesterday on the side of Jiazhuang, and the grove of Jia's second family was burned down overnight!" The middle-aged man said with a little smugness. After all, when talking about things, being able to know inside information is still very face-saving for him.
"Hey, what's this, isn't it just that when I set off fireworks last night, I accidentally burned his grove, I already knew!" Seeing the middle-aged man so proud, a person on the side couldn't help but say directly.
"yes, that's a big deal, we've known it for a long time!" On the other hand, other people couldn't help but echo it, and it would be quite difficult for the countryside to hide something. Even if it is a matter far away from them, overnight, the message will still be transmitted everywhere, not to mention that now that there is a telephone, the message will naturally be transmitted faster. So what happened in the grove over there in Jiazhuang, they already knew.
"You know what, who said that the grove was accidentally burned when fireworks were set off, and things inside are not that simple!" The middle-aged man who spoke at the beginning was obviously a little unhappy that he was demolished like this, but soon, he still collected his emotions a little and continued.
He didn't just want to talk about the grove, he wanted to say what he knew now.
"Oh, what else is there, it's not fireworks, is there anyone who can't set it on fire!" The person who spoke just now continues to dismantle the stage, no matter where it is, if one person wants to say something, there will always be another person who will come to dismantle the stage. Whether it's because it's not pleasing to the eye or just boring, anyway, such a law exists everywhere, and it is naturally the same now.
"Cut, who said it was arson, this is much more serious than arson!"
When the middle-aged man said this, he attracted the interest of others. After all, it's boring now, and the more mysterious things are, the more they can attract their attention.
"Second Chen, don't pretend to be mysterious, hurry up and tell me, what's going on in the grove?" Someone said.
"yes, let's talk about it!"
Seeing that it attracted the attention of other people also whetted the appetite of many people. Chen Lao Er began to say: "You don't know, that grove was not burned casually, but someone put a bomb in it!" ”
"Bombs?" When Chen Lao Er said this, the attention of the others was all attracted.
Jia Zhuang was not far away from them, and if it was just a simple fire, they didn't care, after all, they were still a little far away. But if it's a bomb, then the threat to them is a bit bigger. After all, if you can drop bombs in the grove, then it is inevitable that these bombs will be thrown around them, so their spirits are also raised.
"Well, it's a bomb! You don't know, the grove of Jia Lao'er's house doesn't look like it was burned. A friend of mine told me that when he entered the grove this morning, it was full of potholes, as if it had been blown up by a bomb, and the whole ground had been plowed several layers, as would be the case with a normal arson! Chen Lao Er said proudly, and looked at the people who dismantled the stage at the beginning.
When Chen Lao Er said this, the people around him didn't say anything. After all, they are all rural people, and they have all seen fires. If it was just a fire, it was normal for the trees to burn, but the ground had been ploughed off a layer, and it was obviously not a fire.
"Bombs? Chen Lao Er, you can really blow it, Jiazhuang is only a few miles away from us, if there is really a bomb, we will not feel it last night. And it's still so calm today? Those police probably have already turned our place into a fight. At first, the person who demolished the stage said angrily.
As soon as he said this, everyone else reacted. This is indeed the truth, first of all, I did not feel too much shock. If you want to blow up the ground into a big crater, then the amount of explosives will definitely not be less, and if you detonate it together, you can feel it even here......
However, last night, except for the fireworks, everything was normal, and there was not much explosion at all, which is not true at all.
And, more importantly, if someone really bombs the grove, then this incident will be even more feared not only by ordinary people, but also by the police. Because if there is really a fatal case, then they don't want to have a good New Year.
There are so many bombs, it is not a trivial matter to detonate them anywhere, and it would be really strange if the police and leaders above did not pursue them frantically.
Just like in the past, when a wanted criminal was tracked, not only would the police come to the door every day to inquire, but there would also be a special wanted warrant, and the entire village was searched several times, even if it was a dog hole. This is just a wanted criminal, and if it were a bomb, the police in the entire city would have to go crazy.
But none of this means that nothing has happened. Everything last night was just an accident, and no one set fire to it, and no one was bored with bombs to blow up the grove.
"That's it, it's still a bomb, Chen Er, it won't be you who crashed with your fart last night!" Thinking about it like this, the people on the side couldn't help but joke.
On the one hand, there is all kinds of evidence that there will be no bombs, and on the other hand, they are not comforting themselves. Bombs are more terrible weapons than pistols, and if they are really in someone's hands, they are a huge threat to their lives.
It's as simple as people living at the grassroots level, they just want peace, even if it's just an illusion. But when things don't come to their heads, they will choose the best idea and not think about things so scary.
It's like a bomb now, if someone could make a bomb and use it at will, then their quiet life would be shattered. None of this is what they want to see, so compare it to the possible 'truth'. They also want to choose a lie.
Of course, because they are just ordinary people, they will not imagine that the truth is not as terrifying as they imagined, but it is much more dangerous than the truth they imagined.
Others naturally thought the same way, so when they heard that someone was taking the lead, others couldn't help but joke: "I think it looks like it's Chen Lao Er who used his fart to collapse!" ”
"Haha......"
When they said this, everyone laughed too. The atmosphere is no longer as solemn as it was just now!
"But as soon as the grove catches fire like this, Jia Lao Er will die of sadness. After planting for so long, all the fires were burned, and this time it was a miserable loss! Someone said with emotion.
This is the case with groves in the countryside, which are generally contracted out. What you plant, then these are yours. The same is true of trees, which are planted by themselves, then they are their own.
Of course, there is no way around it. Because Yueji City was so poor at the beginning, even if it wanted to plant some trees, there was no way to do it. Why? Because even if the saplings are planted, they will be pulled out by others the next day, or even that night.
Why? Of course, if you take it out and sell it, a small sapling is actually not valuable, but in the eyes of the poor and crazy people in Yueji City, a small sapling that can be exchanged for money is a pretty good thing. So every time a small sapling is planted, it will be dug up directly.
In this way, it is impossible for the entire Moon Season City to have trees at all. Even if you find someone to take care of it, after all, no matter who it is, it is not one person who has to deal with it, but millions of citizens in the entire Yueji City. It is said that the people's war is the most terrible, and the war of the little sapling is naturally the same.
If you're not careful, the sapling will be gone. And such a thing, even if it is caught, it is useless. Because it's not valuable, it's only a matter of a few days if it's caught, and it can't even be closed, but it's just about being released after some education.
After all, there are not one or two people who steal small saplings, almost most of them have done it, and whether the law is not responsible for the public is here, it is also something that must be considered. So in this way, the cultivation of small seedlings has fallen into a bottleneck.
And the peasants have the command of the peasants, and the leaders naturally have the command of the leaders.
For example, contract out all the saplings. How to contract?
The original saplings had nothing to do with the farmers, so no one felt pain in the hearts of the people whether they were uprooted or killed. But what if those little saplings were made to those farmers? For example, if you sell the saplings to them for a small fee, and the trees that grow up belong to the farmers themselves, they must be purchased at the market price if they want to use them.
Not to mention, in this way, the small saplings are also guaranteed to survive. After all, small saplings are not valuable, but large trees are quite valuable, as long as you wait a year or two, you will be guaranteed an income, which is still very cost-effective.
As a result, greening was carried out and the policy of making the grove a farmer remained unchanged. So now that the grove is burning, the biggest loss is Jia Lao Er, who planted them.
"What's the loss, Trois-Rivières said, because they set off fireworks to burn down the grove. So no matter how big or small, all of them will be compensated according to double the market price, so this time, Jia Lao Er has made a lot of money! Someone inevitably said sourly.
"How so? That Jia Lao Er has indeed made a lot of money! I don't know when, the topic led to speculation about how much Jia Lao Er could earn. (To be continued.) )
