Not to mention that Cheng Zhenghong jumped like thunder after discovering the heavy losses, and slapped the heavy solid wood table next to him to the slap. (The fastest update speed is on the Aishang Novel Network biquge.info)
The next day, Ye Quan packed his luggage and set out on the journey back to his hometown.
In addition to personal items and various gifts, there was also a 6-seater assault inflatable boat and a Mercury brand outboard motor, the assault boat was made of aluminum alloy base, and the outboard engine was 15 horsepower, which cost him more than 6,000 yuan and 14,000 yuan respectively.
Jiang Shiyu was also in the car, and after arriving at the destination, he drove the pickup back to Yue'an City, Taoyuan Village is actually not far from Yue'an City, at most half a day's journey, but the road is difficult, and the two set off after breakfast.
Yuyang County is the northernmost area of Nanling Province, bordering Xiangjiang Province, belonging to the subtropical monsoon climate, the four seasons are distinct, the lowest temperature is minus five or six degrees, and the highest temperature reaches 39 degrees.
After entering the territory of Yuyang County, Jiang Shiyu, who was sitting in the passenger seat, saw the beautiful mountains and rivers along the way, and the scenery was beautiful, so he couldn't help but praise again and again, and said: "It's really raised in the deep boudoir, I live in Yue'an, which is half a day away, and I don't know that the scenery here is so beautiful?" ”
Ye Quan smiled and said, "Yue'an City itself is a world-famous tourist city, and the eyes of people who come here to travel are attracted to it, besides, the traffic restrictions are too great. ”
Jiang Shiyu nodded when he heard this.
After passing the county seat of Yuyang, the road is bumpy, bending over a mountain and a ridge.
However, no matter how bad the road condition is, it is better to pave a thin layer of asphalt, when the pickup truck passed through Pingjiang Township, and drove in the direction of Taoyuan Village, it really faced the test, only allowing a small car to pass through the dirt road with countless large potholes and small potholes, but also fortunately, the off-road performance of the pickup truck is very good, and the general car with a low chassis really does not dare to drive in casually, Ye Quan had to give up the driver's seat to the more experienced Jiang Shiyu.
After driving for more than half an hour, the two finally stopped at a ferry by the Pingjiang River, Ye Quan got out of the car, looked at the familiar scenery in front of him, couldn't help but feel comfortable, pointed to a mountain peak shaped like a saddle on the opposite side and said: "After crossing the river, and then turning over that mountain is my hometown." ”
Jiang Shiyu saw that there was a dense peach forest on the hillside on the opposite bank, although it had passed the Mid-Autumn Festival, but he could still see some bright red peaches on some branches, he could imagine the beautiful scenery of peach blossoms blooming all over the mountains and fields when spring came, and said with a smile: "There is really some taste of peach blossom source." ”
Ye Quan smiled: "Maybe it is influenced by Tao Yuanming's "Peach Blossom Spring", the people in the village like to plant some peach trees on the periphery of the village. ”
Along the way, the two chatted a lot, Jiang Shiyu also learned about Ye Quan's purpose of returning to his hometown, he was very puzzled by this, he has been helping in the ornamental fish shop these days, and he also understands the value and turnover of the ornamental fish in the store.
The Pingjiang River runs through the whole Yuyang County, the widest place is not more than 300 meters, there are five bridges and more than 20 ferries in the county, the ferries used are non-motorized, and the wide river is supported by bamboo poles; If the river is narrower, a thick steel wire will be pulled on both sides of the river, and the boat will be pulled across the river by pulling the wire when crossing the river.
Taoyuan Ferry used to use self-built wooden boats, and now the county government is equipped with iron-hulled boats, ** meters long, three meters wide, no cabin, just laid with wooden boards, the shell is painted with red paint, and two three-meter-high wooden piles are erected on one side of the boat, which are blocked on the steel wire.
Hearing the sound of the motor of the car, two people walked out of the cabin by the ferry, one was a middle-aged man in his fifties, with a thin figure and a natural bitter face.
The other was a young man of twenty-four or five years old, with inch hair and only a vest on his upper body, revealing a body of dark and strong muscles.
"Uncle Mingqing, Xinlong." Ye Quan said hello.
Ye Mingqing is the keeper of Taoyuan Village, in addition to the 600 yuan salary given by the government every month, he usually relies on a bamboo raft and seven or eight cormorants to catch some river fish for sale.
Ye Xinlong is two years younger than Ye Quan, when he was a child in Ye Quan, he was his best cadre, like a fart, he followed Ye Quan up the mountain to catch birds all day long, and went down to the river to catch fish, but Ye Xinlong stayed at home after graduating from middle school to farm, raised a pond of fish, did not go out to work, the two have always been in contact, this time they came to the ferry to pick him up.
"College student, I heard Xinlong say that you want to come back to live?" Ye Mingqing asked.
"yes."
Ye Mingqing shook his head and said, "I don't understand, the young people are desperately running to the city now, why did you, a college student, turn back?" ”
Ye Mingchang's family in Taoyuan Village, in the eyes of the people, are all promising people, Ye Mingchang graduated from high school, and self-taught mechanical maintenance for two years, in the countryside at that time can be called a high degree of education, and later entered the state-owned machinery factory, picked up the iron rice bowl, and took the family to live in the city, which is considered to be jumping out of the farm.
And Ye Quan is also one of the very few college students in the village, in Ye Mingqing's opinion, it is very good to be able to come back to worship his ancestors during the Qingming Festival every year.
Ye Xinlong said: "Uncle Mingqing, didn't I tell you?" , Brother Ye Quan is coming back to start a business? Be your own boss? It's not that he won't go back to the city. ”
Ye Mingqing was still puzzled when he heard this, and said: "In the village, you are either farming or farming, what kind of boss can you be?" ”
Ye Quan said with a smile: "It's really farming, and when the vegetable greenhouse is covered, you will understand." ”
The four of them carried their luggage onto the ferry, Ye Quan left two bottles of wine and a cigarette for Ye Mingqing, put them in the cabin, and said to Jiang Shiyu: "Go to the house for a meal and then go, it can be regarded as knowing the way." ”
The two sides of the river are full of large and small pebbles, and then there is the tall revetment forest, the source of the Pingjiang River comes from the deep mountains, the water quality is very clear, and the pebbles and clumps of aquatic plants at the bottom of the river can be seen at a depth of more than three meters.
The river surface of Taoyuan Ferry is about 100 meters, because there is a bend downstream, the water flow is very slow, pulling the tightrope, and it stops at the ferry on the opposite bank in less than three minutes.
There is a carriage parked at the ferry, holding a blue horse, although Taoyuan Village is located in the mountains, but there has been a custom of raising horses since ancient times.
After carrying the luggage into the carriage, Ye Quan and Jiang Shiyu sat down, Ye Xinlong raised the whip, threw the whip, and the carriage began to move forward, passing through the peach forest at the foot of Ma'anshan Mountain, walking for about a mile, and a piece of continent that looked like a small grassland appeared, with more than a dozen cows and a few horses scattered on it, leisurely gnawing on the green grass.
This is a bend of the Pingjiang River, after thousands of years of erosion, formed a sandbar with a width of hundreds of acres, because the terrain is too low, it must be flooded several times in summer every year, so it can not be used for farming, it is overgrown with all kinds of wild grasses, and can only be used to raise cattle and horses.
At this time, Taoyuan Village has come into everyone's eyes, more than 200 families are scattered at the foot of Zhushan, the village is full of tall trees, and those blue bricks and purple tiles of the houses look looming.
