No.576 Morning face is like jade, evening is like tide, late song.
Yangjia Town, a large town in Wang Jian's hometown county. Before the people moved out, there were probably more than 3,000 families living here, with a total population of about 15,000 people, covering an area of 15,000 acres.
These people, whose ancestors made a living by weaving bamboo slivers and raising fish, were about half of the more than 10,000 people who worked as carpenters before it was exploited here.
However, although it is true that there are many people who are craftsmen, there is never a collective plan, so they have been messing around, so they are still poor.
But although poor, as soon as you walk into the periphery of this town, the bamboo forest is pine, the stream is murmuring, and the scenery is a unique beauty. Yang Yue couldn't help but pick up a lot of wild fruits from the side of the road, and ate them with her head down all the way, feeling like a very nervous person at all, but like a female college student who came for an outing.
However, when this good scenery passed, Wang Jian was surprised by the scene that caught his eye, a large number of broken eaves and broken walls, and occasionally two old brick walls and blue brick houses that had not yet had time to be demolished, and there was no one, except for a large number of sparrows, who were overwhelmed by the sudden visitors.
"Third brother, this is Yangjia Town, because the traffic here is really inconvenient, so the county government spent a lot of effort to move us out of here to do a business of contempt. Ay...... It's all the fault of the lack of money. Liuliu walked under a big tree and patted the trunk: "This was originally a commissary, and when I was a child, I used to make soy sauce and vinegar and buy bubble gum here."
Wang Jian looked around: "I also feel quite familiar......
"Of course, the four villages and four towns in our county almost all look the same." Liuliu smiled: "Come on, third brother, I'll take you around."
After that, Liuliu took Wang Jian around this small place like a ghost town: "Here we are going to demolish him and use the money contracted from 100,000 acres of barren mountains to build a handicraft area, but do you know ......?"
As he spoke, Liuliu's eyes suddenly became sneaky, and he looked left and right, for fear that someone would say to Wang Jian: "Third brother." You don't know, it's quite evil here. ”
"How?" Wang Jian blinked: "How is the evil sect?"
"When the house is demolished, it is very smooth, but when you want to cut off the apricot, every time the interception is about to be completed, it will rain heavily, and it will rain at any time in spring, summer, autumn and winter. This stream will become an apricot, and if you want to divert it, don't even think about it. So later, some people said that the mountain god didn't let us do it, and then ...... Even the people who demolished the house could not be found, no one was willing to come, and there was no money to hire someone from outside to demolish it, so the project was put on hold until now. It's going to be more than a year. ”
Wang Jian touched his chin and snorted: "Can you keep that river?"
Liuliu shook his head, stood on a slightly higher step, and pointed to the distance: "There is a lake in front of it, the soil is not good, the bridge is impossible, and the flash flood will be washed away as soon as it rains." And it is surrounded by mountains on three sides and water on the other. Only this one can build a road to go out, and for so many years they have to take this five-mile dirt road when they come out and go in, which is dangerous and slow, efficient and low-cost, and the things in the mountains can't get out, and the things outside the mountains can't get out. ”
At this time, Yang Yue leaned over and whispered to Wang Jian: "You talk to him, I'll take a look around."
Wang Jian nodded: "Be careful."
"Rest assured. It's drizzling in the Amazon. ”
After she left, Liuliu took out a cigarette and saluted Wang Jian: "Third brother, you have also seen it, except for this, the environment here is absolutely nothing, such a beautiful place is really rare." Moreover, all kinds of medicinal materials can be produced on the mountain every year, and if someone is willing to invest in something else, they will definitely be able to make a lot of money. ”
Wang Jian touched his chin: "Take me on."
"Good Ratcha." Liuliu nodded and continued to walk forward with Wang Jian, from time to time to say what this place was and what it was. Turns out there's something here and so on.
Until he arrived in front of a house that had not been demolished, Liuliu suddenly stopped, looked up, and then pouted and took a step back: "Third brother, this house is the house that is said to have burned many people to death back then, and the workers did not dare to demolish it, saying that this house is haunted."
"No one has lived in it for so many years?" Wang Jian looked at the only three-story manor with a yard in this town, although it was dark inside, but judging from the mottled tiles on the outside and the vermilion lacquer gate that was already half broken, this family should have been here at that time...... Or in the whole county, it is a big family that has no one for a while.
"Not to mention the people, when I was a child, I came here on an expedition and was beaten into a zebra by my father." Liuliu smiled stupidly: "Most of the filial piety in the town has a shadow on it, and no one passes by here during the day, and it is cold when you come over on dog days."
Wang Jian raised his eyebrows, walked over slowly, stretched out his hand and pushed open the half-broken door, and then walked in the dark hall.
He looked up and looked around, more than 20 years of desertion made this house no longer find the breath of the local tyrant of the past, there were crystal chandeliers hanging on the ceiling, fragments of furniture were scattered everywhere, the floor was dark and dirty, overgrown with weeds and fungi, all the glass in the room had long been gone, only the complete one was probably the small round mirror that had been yellowed on the wall embedded in the bathroom, and there was a hedgehog coughing sound in the shadows, which was really as terrible as a haunted house.
Wang Jian frowned and walked up the stairs that had no handrails, but he walked and walked...... Wang Jian suddenly paused, his mind began to spin, and then hallucinations began to appear in front of him at the same time.
At first, it was his ears that he heard the sound of children frolicking and the sound of cooking in the kitchen, and then the dark building began to brighten, and then the six six around him disappeared, replaced by a bright hall, where the bright sunlight penetrated through the bright glass window, and the hall was paved with a beautiful stall, and there was a long-haired dog on the stall.
A middle-aged man in a suit is reading a newspaper on a mahogany chair with his legs crossed, and a woman who can't see her face is cooking in the kitchen Ritz. And on the stairs the two filial piety are running up and down, the boy who is a little older, but frail, chases after the girl who is a little younger, crying and asking her to return something to him, while the little girl holds up a thing that she can't see clearly and proudly reports to the middle-aged man on the sofa that her brother is playing with girls' things.
"Hello? Feed? Hey, hey?"
A hurried chair shook Wang Jian out of the hallucination, and after he calmed down, he found that Yang Yue didn't know what was standing beside him, and frowned: "You have been standing motionless for half an hour, and you are still looking for me by Liuliu."
Wang Jian paused with a stern expression: "I'm hallucinating......"
"You. Gotta get a good rest today. ”
"No, no, no...... Not that hallucination. Wang Jian pointed here: "This was probably your home before."
Yang Yue was stunned for a moment, looked around, and then frowned: "I can only remember a little bit from the dream of Yixian...... I can't remember anything else, and all I can remember is the end of my house, which is now in ruins, how could I possibly remember. ”
And Liuliu was frightened just now, Wang Jian went upstairs to do well. Suddenly, the whole person seemed to be pressed to pause, standing there motionless, no matter how he called it, it was useless, and Liuliu was worried that he was evil, so he didn't dare to act rashly, so he could only hurry to find Yang Yue to come over.
"Third brother...... Third brother. Don't scare anyone, I'll just say it's evil. Liuliu's expression became nervous: "Third brother...... Let's rest for a while, it's not too early, come to my place for a meal. ”
Wang Jian actually felt dizzy after coming out of the hallucination, so he stopped being stubborn and reflexively followed Liuliu out of the house.
And after Yang Yue came out. After looking back a few times, she couldn't see her expression, but it could be seen from her complicated eyes that she actually had some impression of this room, but she just suppressed her feelings.
Wang Jian didn't speak, he instinctively felt that there must be something strange here, but before the specific situation was revealed, he didn't have the right to speak. So he just walked in front silently, and it wasn't until a few people came to Liuliu's door that he slowly said, "I have a feeling that this won't be easy."
Yang Yue snorted: "I also have a feeling that I can't speak."
"Third brother...... Don't think about it yet, just take a break. "Liuliu is palpitating, that place is an absolute forbidden area for this piece of dolls, and although he has a good education. But in the end, he was born in the countryside, so this traditional superstition is still a little bit, so he took a mugwort and handed it to Wang Jian and Yang Yue: "Sweep it." Sweep it. ”
After walking into the house, Liuliu welcomed Wang Jian and Yang Yue to the sofa, then brewed two cups of local local tea, and then walked into the inner room: "Daughter-in-law, let's see who is coming!"
After a while, a girl came out of the house, this girl Wang Jian recognized at a glance, this good guy...... Liuliu, this kid is terrible, he actually deceived the teacher who had just graduated from the normal school who was substitute in Wang Jian High School.
"Hey...... This is not ......" Wang Jian's substitute teacher patted his head: "I remember, Wang Jian, right."
Wang Jian scratched his forehead: "I have to call you Teacher Zou or I have to call you Liuliu Sister-in-law......
"Don't listen to him, what should you call it, Liuliu is older than me." Teacher Zou covered his mouth and smiled, although he was not very beautiful, but he was still quite temperamental: "You guys sit down, Liuliu said that there was a guest today, but I didn't expect it to be you, I'll go and give you a meal."
After she turned to leave, Liu Liu Chao Wang Jian raised his eyebrows: "Third brother, what did you say at that time."
"I forgot ......"
"I remember, at that time, you said, if I have the ability, I will marry Mr. Zou home." Liuliu smiled: "Look, I succeeded."
"Six-six...... Wait. It's a little embarrassing, but I really don't think about you. ”
Liuliu was a little embarrassed, but smiled in a blink of an eye: "Then you will be a freshman in high school, I have repeated two terms in my senior year of high school, old oil, ouch, this is a tragedy in the world."
Wang Jian scratched his head: "This is ...... I seem to have a little impression, at that time, it seemed that you stopped Teacher Zou and asked her to kiss you, and said that if you didn't kiss, she wouldn't let her get off work, she called in a hurry, and then I went up and bumped into it. ”
"yes...... I was the same year as her, and then I went to college, so I hooked up with her. I just got married last year, and I have to thank you. ”
Wang Jian laughed and slapped Liuliu on the shoulder: "You can be enough."
Liuliu glanced at Yang Yue, who was reading the album due to occupational illness next to him: "What about me, your daughter-in-law is much more beautiful than my family."
Wang Jian narrowed his eyes and smiled: "This is not a daughter-in-law, my daughter-in-law is this."
After speaking, Wang Jian opened his wallet and asked Liuliu to take a look at the photo of himself and Tianren. This suddenly made Liuliu's eyes pop out: "I'm afraid I didn't find a star, right?"
"Ordinary people, ordinary people, are also teachers."
While they were chatting about their daily routines, the iron door outside clanged, followed by a coughing sound. Then an old man walked slowly into the house with a hoe on his shoulder.
"Yo, Liuliu, there's a guest."
"Dad!" Liuliu stood up and shouted: "This is Wang Jian, third brother Wang."
"Oh...... I know this kid, that's a fight every day. Liuliu's father took out a pack of cheap cigarettes and handed one to Wang Jian: "How is the kid now?"
Wang Jian's face was about to turn red, his notoriety ...... I really don't know when it will be cleaned, but after all, people are elders. I could only answer: "It's okay, it's okay, fool."
"No, Dad, the third brother is amazing now, and he is coming back this time to invest in the construction of our hometown."
"That's right, what's the matter of fighting all the time." The old man slapped his thigh: "This person can't forget his roots." Do you really want to invest? How much do you invest?"
Wang Jian touched his head: "I have about two billion spare money in my hands." I'm going to ......"
"Multi-...... How much?" Liuliu was also frightened: "Third brother, you say it again......"
"Two billion ......" Wang Jian was also blinded: "My share dividends...... There are also my father's previous dividends, but many of them have been invested, and there are only so many left. ”
And Yang Yue turned her head coldly at this time, and glanced at Wang Jian strangely: "Make it clear, US dollars."
Liuliu's eyes burst out, and he couldn't speak: "Really...... True...... Really?"
"Really...... Wang Jian nodded: "I actually ...... I don't have any idea about money. Anyway, it's needed here. I'll just vote. ”
"Individual or company?"
"Personally...... It's too much trouble to go to the company. Wang Jian nodded: "Anyway...... It's useless to keep this money. ”
Wang Jian is really not pretending to be forced, he inherited the shares of the old carpenter, and naturally inherited his share dividends, so many years of accumulation, Wang Jian opened the account and looked, almost not scared to pee, the s symbol represents the dollar, and Wang Jian counted the zero at the back more than a dozen times. However, under the coercion and temptation of Xiaojin. He took out a large part of the investment in the nut wall and angel funds, so the rest ...... He's going to go all over to his hometown, anyway, money isn't a problem for him at all now.
"Third brother, you really didn't lie to me?" Liuliu's face was flushed.
"When have I ever lied to someone, if not enough...... I'll go to the board meeting again and mobilize a little more. ”
"Enough...... That's enough...... I thought you were going to invest tens of millions. Tens of millions are enough......"
Wang Jian shook his head: "Since you want to do it, why don't you do it bigger, so that the villagers can live a good life, in fact, it can be regarded as a contribution to the hometown."
And after he finished speaking. Then he said to Liuliu's father, who was sitting there counting how many zeros were two billion: "Sixth uncle, that one ...... I came this time for another purpose, I just want to learn about the fire in Yangjia Town more than 20 years ago. ”
When Liuliu's father heard this, his face suddenly changed: "It's miserable...... What a miserable one! ”
"How?" Yang Yue also came up: "What's so miserable?"
"A family, locked in the house and burned alive!" Father Liuliu took a deep breath: "The fire will get up at once, and it's too late to even save it!"
The information revealed from his words made Yang Yue and Wang Jian stunned at the same time, and Yang Yue frowned: "Locked at home?"
"Yes, it's locked, I was the captain of the militia at the time, and when I rushed over to save it, it took a lot of effort to get the lock open, but it was too late. They were burned to death. ”
Wang Jian was silent for a while, and raised his chin: "Can you say it from the beginning?"
Liuliu's father nodded: "At that time, Liuliu was just three or four years old, and I was just thirty years old. Living in Yangjia Town, I studied for a few years, and I was a little educated, so they asked me to be the captain of the militia, and then they saw that I was working well, so they made me a ...... of the village committee."
"Dad...... Don't start with that, go back a bit. ”
"Oh, got it." Liuliu's father changed his tone: "One day, two people came to Yangjia Town, saying that they were people from Yangjia Town, and now they are back to build their hometown, and they are overseas Chinese...... As for where it is, I don't know, it seems to be what or what Nanyang where. ”
Yang Yue accosted: "Malaysia."
"Yes, yes, that's it." Liuliu's father slapped his thigh: "Later, they really paid a lot of money, it seems that there is a million, to build roads for the county government." Then the county government built a house for them in order to reward them, and that is the one. But...... I don't look at them like businessmen. ”
"What does that look like?" Yang Yue was stunned: "What do you think it looks like?"
"It's like a hero on TV! I've seen that man practice at home, a 200-pound iron lump, two in one hand! Liuliu's father recalled: "Then they brought two children over, a boy and a girl, I think it was his doll."
"And then!" Yang Yue asked nervously, "Then what happened?"
"Don't worry, don't worry...... If I think about it, it's been a long time, and I can't remember. ”――
