The 90-year-old Gyeongdu long-distance bus station is still so chaotic. Soliciting customers for small hotels, selling tea eggs and maps, driving taxis and beheading customers, all kinds of people are difficult to compare. Liu Zhuang only waited outside the station for more than ten minutes, and three or four groups of people came forward to talk. It was only when they heard Liu Zhuang's local accent that these people left in disdain.

Today, Liu Zhuang finally asked for a leave from Teacher Meng, and wanted to go back to the countryside with his parents to celebrate his grandmother's birthday. But when Liu Zhuang thought of the stack of solid materials in his schoolbag, he felt a little like crying.

Yan Qingliang is an extremely attentive person. So when she did the real yàn, she threw all her body and mind into the real yàn. However, science is not only as simple as lighting an alcohol lamp and shaking a flask, but also many things that record the steps of the real and count the real number of the real thing. And these chores are precisely the biggest basis for evaluating the value of the paper. After all, the real yàn that can be repeated is the real yàn that is valuable. Otherwise, what if you know if you are blinded or falsified?

And Yan Qingliang also hates these chores the most. Since she is quite attentive in the real yàn, she is always a little lost in recording the real yàn steps and the real yàn number jù. Originally, after each realization, Yan Qingliang always spent two or three times as much time sorting out these materials. But now with Liu Zhuang, the body worker, Yan Qingliang has been completely liberated.

So these days, Yan Qingliang uses Liu Zhuang quite easily. So when she heard that Liu Zhuang was going to ask for leave, she was very unhappy. So Yan Qingliang's little girl had a temper attack, so she asked Liu Zhuang to take home all the real yàn numbers of this week and let him sort them out. For Liu Zhuang's rest time, Yan Qingliang's aggressiveness is getting stronger and stronger.

Although he hated Yan Qingliang's Lafayette face, Liu Zhuang was also helpless, who made him accept a random task? So Brother Xiao Zhuang turned into a little Zhuangzi, and begged for perfection under the obscenity of Yan Qingliang, the Lafayette. However, Liu Zhuang also secretly swore in his heart: This matter is not over! It's not over!

……

"Strong!" Mother Li Wanfen greeted Liu Zhuang from afar.

Liu Zhuang hurriedly ran over and shouted, "Dad! Mother! ”

Liu Yinshan still maintained his father's majesty, and said concisely: "The ticket is bought." Hurry up and get in the car! ”

Li Wanfen doesn't care about her husband's attitude. When she saw her son, she smiled, and began to talk more: "In order not to delay your class, I can only buy a ticket for the last train." It's going to be eight or nine o'clock in the evening when you get to your grandmother's house. Strong! Drink saliva first? Don't hide! Why don't you eat a bun first to pad your hunger? ……”

Liu Zhuang's grandmother's home was in Dongli Village, Xiaowazi Township, Lingbei County, Qingang District Administration (later Qingang City). The reason why I want to introduce it in such detail is because Li Wanfen's household registration is still hanging there, and Liu Zhuang's household registration is also in this village.

From the place name, it can be known that Liu Zhuang's grandmother's house is in the mountainous area, so the road is quite hard. Liu Zhuang's family set off at three o'clock in the afternoon, and it was not until seven o'clock that they arrived at the Qingang bus station. After that, I changed to a long-distance bus, and it took more than an hour to arrive at Lingbei County.

After that, his brother-in-law Li Tiezheng, who was waiting at the county bus station, borrowed a walk-behind tractor and spent nearly an hour dragging Liu Zhuang's family to his grandmother's house.

After settling in, there was no word for the night. And Liu Zhuang got up early in the morning the next day, and he began to sort out the actual information.

……

Liu Zhuang stretched a big lazy waist, and he was full of a sense of accomplishment in his heart. With so much information, it can be sorted out in two hours, and it looks like I'm one step away from Superman.

Liu Zhuang was intoxicated in his heart, and his mother Li Wanfen walked into the house lightly. She held a bowl of noodles, put it in front of Liu Zhuang, and commanded lovingly: "Hurry up and have breakfast." Wait a while to go out and say hello to your grandma and uncle. ”

At this time, Liu Zhuang did feel a little hungry. He gulped down the noodles and took a sip of the soup from time to time.

This bowl of noodles is full of lard and sesame oil, covered with scrambled eggs, sprinkled with green onions, garlic sprouts, yellow and green colors, this color and fragrance make people salivate.

But while eating, Liu Zhuang's eyes couldn't help but straighten. He picked up one of the mushrooms in the noodles with his chopsticks and looked at it carefully, his expression becoming uncertain.

"Don't be picky!" Li Wanfen slapped Liu Zhuang on the shoulder with a smile, "The countryside is like this, and some stone mushrooms must be put in the scrambled eggs." Just now, Mom specially picked out some more eggs for you, but there will always be one or two left. ”

"Mom! It's okay! Stone mushrooms are also very fragrant, and I love to eat them. Liu Zhuang smiled at his mother, and then stuffed the stone mushroom in the chopsticks into his mouth.

The stone mushroom mentioned here is just a folk name in the Qingang area, and it is not the same kind of mushroom as the scientific name of the stone mushroom. Moreover, stone mushrooms are also a general term for mushrooms in the nearby mountains, and if you subdivide them, they can actually be divided into nearly ten subcategories.

And in this era, the stone mushrooms here are not worth anything at all, and they are all over the mountains. When farmers here go up the mountain to chop firewood and collect pigweed, they often bring down a large handful and put it in the vegetables to fill it up. Although Liu Zhuang's brother-in-law Li Tiezheng also has a head and face in the village, the conditions at home are just like that, so when scrambling eggs, it is inevitable to put some stone mushrooms.

But Liu Zhuang knows that with the construction of roads in the province, the villagers here have gradually opened their eyes. A few years later, due to the delicious taste of the mushrooms and the resemblance to the mushrooms such as truffles that are popular in the West, the mushrooms were discovered by some overseas food suppliers.

After that, there was a series of hype, advertising, and packaging. Those Japanese and Hong Kong food suppliers buy shiitake mushrooms here at the price of cabbage, and then supply some high-end restaurants in Japan and Southeast Asia at a sky-high price of more than 100 times, making a lot of money.

Of course, this golden age only lasted for a year or two, and because of the indiscriminate harvesting, the wild stone mushrooms were quickly picked. Strangely, this stone mushroom grows in a few townships in Lingbei County, but not in other areas.

Then, it entered the stage of artificial breeding. With the hot sale of wild stone mushrooms, the Provincial Academy of Agricultural Sciences organized experts to conduct breeding research, and finally successfully developed an artificial breeding method.

With the popularization of large-scale farming, the stone mushroom and its processing industry have become the pillar industry of Lingbei County. Although the price of mushrooms has plummeted because of artificial breeding, the success rate of mushroom farming is relatively low, so from the perspective of income, this is still a very lucrative industry.

And Liu Zhuang suddenly saw this business opportunity, and he remembered his task one. After that, his thoughts were self-evident.

However, in order to make money from stone mushrooms, there is a problem that needs to be solved - to contact food suppliers in Japan and Hong Kong. But where did Liu Zhuang get such connections now?

So Liu Zhuang was a little restless, and he had a sense of anxiety about entering Baoshan and returning empty. In the end, Liu Zhuang made up his mind: no matter what he does, when he goes back, he will ask his uncle to get some stone mushrooms, and find a way to try to sell them in the provincial capital. Even if it doesn't work, it won't be wasted, so you can always eat it at home.

But no matter what, Liu Zhuang returned to his hometown this time to visit relatives. So after eating noodles, Liu Zhuang, accompanied by his parents, began to visit the elders.

"It's strong! It's so big, I heard that I was admitted to Shannan University, and I have a chance. ”

"I'm about to graduate! I will definitely be able to work in the area! Last time, we had a college student in our county, and it was very rare in the county. ”

"What a college student, that's a college student. We are strong and strong, but we are college students at Shannan University. The region may not be able to stay, maybe it can stay in the provincial capital, and it may even be possible to work in the capital. ”

……

The praise of relatives made Liu Yinshan and his wife happy. And Liu Zhuang laughed so much that his cheeks hurt. After finally finishing the entertainment, Liu Zhuang went out of the courtyard to relax.

"Xiao Zhuang, you're here too."

As soon as he got out of the courtyard, Liu Zhuang heard someone shouting. Liu Zhuang looked back and saw a young man in his early twenties, wearing a military uniform with epaulettes and armbands removed, standing behind him. That was Liu Zhuang's childhood playmate Li Chengguo.

When Liu Zhuang was young, Liu Zhuang's parents always sent him to his grandmother's house every summer, so Liu Zhuang and Li Chengguo did a lot of fishing and shrimp fishing.

"Grasshopper!" Liu Zhuang hugged Li Chengguo affectionately, and then joked: "You want to call me Fourth Uncle!" Be polite! ”

In terms of generation, Liu Zhuang is indeed a generation older than Li Chengguo. But how could Li Chengguo tolerate such a fact? So he broke free of Liu Zhuang's embrace, pouted and said, "Pull it down!" I'm working to support my family, so it's better than you who are still studying and using your parents! ”

Liu Zhuang knew that although Li Dongguo was not a few years older than himself, he joined the army as soon as he graduated from high school and had just been demobilized and returned home last year. However, demobilized soldiers in rural areas are not assigned jobs. So Liu Zhuang asked curiously, "What?" Where did you work? ”

When it comes to work, Li Dongguo is a little proud. He said complacently: "It's the agricultural machinery factory in the township." I heard that I learned to drive in the army, so my uncle (Liu Zhuang's uncle) helped me and introduced me to the factory to drive. ”

Liu Zhuang knew that the agricultural machinery factory was a small township enterprise established by borrowing money from the Alloy Association when the township enterprises were hot. However, this agricultural machinery factory has no technology, and it can't open the road, due to inconvenient transportation, labor and other costs are not cheap. So in the next few years, this agricultural machinery factory will not be able to do it.

But in any case, as a farmer facing the loess with his back to the sky, it is also a matter of celebration to have the opportunity to enter the factory and eat a salary, so Liu Zhuang is sincerely happy for Li Dongguo.
