Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
Xishan County is named after the towering Taihang Mountains in the west.
Historically, Xishan County has been a poor place. Until the early 90s, Xishan County was still a national-level impoverished county - the land here was barren, there were few rocky people, and the crop yield was extremely low. Even some locally produced fruit crops such as walnuts, persimmons, dates, etc., are not bad to grow and harvest in the mountains, and the taste is quite good, but the roads are not passable, and transportation is a problem, let alone getting rich?
However, in just a few years, Xishan County has now become a well-known and wealthy county in Pingyang City, and even in the whole province.
Because, coal and iron ore have been found here!
Once upon a time, in this barren land where crops were planted by the sky for food, low yields or even extinction, who would have thought that it would be possible to dig coal as long as they dig down more than ten meters? Who would have thought that on those towering mountains all over the wilderness, a pile of rotten stones could be smelted into money by casually blowing down a pile of rotten stones?
In these years, who in Pingyang City dares to laugh at the people of Xishan County for "coming out to escape the famine and going home to famine"?
Because the people of Xishan County are rich!
This is something that almost everyone in Binh Duong City knows and must envy, envy and hate.
Those people in Xishan County who don't know how to read two liters of big characters, don't know how to read one when they fall down, and have lived a poor life in the mountains for many years and have never seen much of the world, and now they are so rich that they can't read or read when ordering food at the best restaurant in the city, and they haven't seen those various dishes, what should they do?
waved the menu and threw a sentence: "Don't bother that bird, I don't know what this is, and I don't know which one is good and which one is bad, just have one!" ”
They can take a bottle of red wine worth tens of thousands of yuan, drink it in one gulp like drinking water, and they can buy a bunch of luxury clothes directly after being ridiculed and looked down upon by the salesperson for buying clothes in the mall because they are vulgar, and then take cigarettes in public and burn the holes one by one, just to vent their anger and slap their faces!
They can buy a luxury car and see that the neighbor bought a different one and it's beautiful, then buy another one, and we have to have what others have!
They, spendthrift, are typical of the super-nouveau riche!
At the same time, they are also rapidly improving their shrewd business acumen, and giving full play to their shrewd and ruthless habits cultivated by the poor mountains and bad waters, unscrupulously squeezing out the money they earned one by one to squeeze out the money they earned and then drive them out of Xishan County, or join them under their command from the original decision-makers to become their executors, and then they dominate and monopolize the local mineral resources!
In recent years, on average, eight out of every ten luxury cars on the territory of Pingyang City were driven by Xishan people.
Some people even say that 80 percent of the deposits in all banks in Pingyang City are deposits from mine bosses in Xishan County.
Here in Xishan County, it is now truly Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.
Even Zhao Shangang, a cattle man who quickly and strongly rose in Jinzhou County and Pingyang City, and was thriving, can only stare at the huge and eye-popping fat in Xishan County and drool, but he does not dare to wade into the deep water of Xishan County. When being bewitched by others or malicious or well-intentioned, Zhao Shangang, who has not really seen the world, also said with great self-knowledge and foresight: "The strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, not to mention that compared with the strong dragons in Xishan County, I Zhao Shangang is a small snake at best, let's talk about it later." ”
In the afternoon, Xishan County was baked by the scorching sun.
Most of the originally majestic green peaks in the west have become bare with the roar of machinery, and their majestic stature is constantly shrinking.
The rapid deterioration of the environment has made the summer in Xishan County particularly hot in the past two years.
Today's county seat of Xishan County has wide streets and wide roads, and cars are weaving. High-rise buildings rising from the ground, beautiful new residential communities...... Let this poor county, which was not as good as ordinary towns in other places in the past, show a new look like a rebirth, and its prosperity is several times stronger than that of Pingyang City.
On the southern side of the newly built East Ring Road, there is a village that has not been demolished and retains the appearance of the former poverty.
Dilapidated tiled houses are scattered in an orderly manner across this barren land, and the narrow streets and alleys are full of potholes and uneven dirt roads.
Because of the rain that had just fallen last night, the streets were muddy and dirty. Only the trees planted on the streets and alleys in the courtyards of the houses are swaying with vitality in this hot summer, adding a little beauty to this dilapidated and impoverished village.
In the southwest corner of the village, there is a house that can still be seen in such a dilapidated and impoverished village.
The three main houses are all low tiled houses, and the dilapidated tiled roofs are covered with bricks and oilcloths pressed everywhere to keep out the rain and plug leaks. On the walls of each room, there are still small windows with old-fashioned wooden lattice pasted with window paper, and the main door is an old-fashioned wooden door with wooden lattice carvings on it, and the lower door frame is less than 1.7 meters high. The steps in front of the door are two shallow layers of red bricks, and the red bricks on the floor of the house have long been unable to see the color, nor can they see the brick joints, all of which are covered with thick dirt, and I don't know how many years of sweeping and stepping on it have had a graceful effect with bright light.
The courtyard was still dirt, and only a path less than half a meter wide was paved with red bricks, which led crookedly from the main house to the courtyard gate.
In the northwest corner of the yard is a more modest hut, probably a kitchen, right?
In the northeast corner, there is an open-air, simple adobe toilet, which is dug in a pit, put two buckets in it, and countless flies buzz around and inside the stinking toilet.
The adobe courtyard wall is only one meter and five meters high, and the wall is skewed and mottled and falling off, and it is impossible to say that a heavy rain and a wind can destroy it one day.
Courtyard Gate......
There is no courtyard gate, and there is a two-meter-wide opening between the adobe walls facing the door of the house, which is the courtyard gate.
If it is said that it is dilapidated and unbearable, it is not uncommon in this village, then the architectural layout style of this small dilapidated house is definitely a strange - the three rooms of the main house are not like most people who sit north and face south, nor do they seem to have to sit west and face east and west due to various reasons such as terrain, but it is very rare to sit south and face north. The problem is that this small courtyard faces the road in the north, south and west, and it shouldn't have been built like this.
I really don't know what the head of the household thought in the first place.
Qian Ming, a people's teacher at the No. 1 High School in Jinzhou County, was squatting on a mottled and old stone mill outside the courtyard gate, which had been buried in the soil for I don't know how many years, was smoking a cigarette with an anxious and depressed expression. Fortunately, a luxuriant jujube tree with the thickness of a bowl next to it shaded the sun and cast patches of green shade, so that he would not be exposed to the sun.
This is Gong Hu's home.
Qian Ming never thought that Gong Hu, who was recognized by Su Chunfeng as a very high cultivation in Xishan County, would not be able to defeat Gong Hu, whose living conditions were so poor that they could not be so unbearable. He couldn't even imagine how the tiger-like mother-in-law in this family endured living with Gong Hu for most of her life?
So much so that Qian Ming had a trace of the idea of no longer practicing magic and becoming a warlock......
It's not a human life!
Qian Ming inquired all the way to find Gong Hu's house at more than ten o'clock in the morning.
The woman in the house, who claimed to be Gong Hu's mother-in-law, who was tall and tall and had a bear's waist, told him that Gong Hu had gone out to run errands and would come back at noon. Originally, Gong Hu's wife politely invited Qian Ming to sit down in the house and drink saliva and wait, but Qian Ming was really embarrassed to sit and wait at home, and the environment in the house was also poor, there was no decent chair in the mess, and Qian Ming was not embarrassed to sit on the kang in the stranger's house, so he had to stay outside on the stone mill that was barely clean and a little shaded.
Until now, I haven't even eaten lunch.
Gong Hu hasn't come back yet.
But this gave Qian Mingxin a glimmer of hope, maybe Gong Hu went out to run errands today, it was because Wang Qimin came to him, right?
Just as he was waiting for a little sleepy and began to nap, there was a sound of muddy water being crushed in the distance.
Following the prestige, I saw that on the street to the east, which was blocked by half of the houses, a black and atmospheric Mercedes-Benz car, pitifully turning in the narrow potholes and mud, slowly driving towards this side, and the beautiful body was splashed with muddy water.
"It's a bad car, what are you doing in this place...... Qian Ming muttered.
Unexpectedly, the Mercedes-Benz sedan stopped when it arrived at the door of Gong Hu's house.
The rear door on the right side of the car opens.
A middle-aged man who looked to be forty-seven or eighteen years old, with rough and dark skin, was the first to get out of the car.
The man was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt, black trousers and black leather shoes, a thick gold chain around his neck, a gold watch on his wrists, and a large gold ring set with diamonds on each of his hands. As soon as he got out of the car, he completely ignored the mud and dirt on the street, crackled and stepped on the muddy water to quickly detour to this side, pushed away the driver who got out of the car and was about to help open the door, and then opened the door himself, nodded politely and said: "Master Gong, I'm home, please, please ......."
As the door opened, a thick cloud of smoke came out of the car.
Gong Hu, who was holding a copper cigarette stick in his hand, got out of the car with a smile. He wore a white vest with a few holes, large trousers sewn from coarse cloth with patches, and a pair of low-quality blue plastic slippers that were worn through the heels. His lewd and ugly cheeks were flushed, his eyes were dazzled, and he was drunkenly allowed by the nouveau riche boss to help him walk into the dilapidated and miserable courtyard, and said, "Oh, that's so polite......"
"It should be, it should be." The big boss had a smile on his face.
