Hearing Hong Tao's greeting, these people took it upon themselves to order food before dinner. But they were dumbfounded again, the last time Hong Tao came back from Canada, he lived with Liu Xiaomei, which made them a little puzzled, this time he came back from Africa and brought back a short-haired and blue-eyed temperament beauty, originally planned to toss Hong Tao well, but was mixed by Pan again.

"I said Hong Tao, your private life is too messy, how old are you? It's time to find a daughter-in-law to live a down-to-earth life, by the way, there is another thing to tell you, that kid Gao Ming has expanded your fishing tackle shop, you ask him for specific things. The tall fat man took the lead in slipping away with a lot of gifts from himself, and walked at the door to educate Hong Tao a few words, and also revealed a major good news.

"Brother Hong, this idea was given to me by my uncle, their wall was empty and empty, so I built two more rooms in it, the door is still so big, but the inside is twice as big, I redecorated it again, and I didn't discuss it with you, I wanted to discuss it, but I couldn't get through when I called you, so I made my own opinion." Gao Ming held a pair of elephant feet made of leather stools that Hong Tao bought for him and his girlfriend, and explained the crime like Hong Tao.

"You are in charge of this, you are also the owner of the fishing tackle shop, it's good, you are better than me, this fishing tackle shop will depend on you in the future, don't expect me, I will give you some bait at most, and you can do the work yourself." Although Hong Tao hasn't seen what the fishing tackle shop is like, who is not happy that his shop has expanded.

The people are gone, and the gifts are almost gone. Hong Tao still has to think about how to spend this Spring Festival. Now he is alone in this small courtyard, and Sam and his wife have already taken advantage of the holiday to run back to the United States, even if Pan and Yerong are called over to celebrate the festival together, Hong Tao is not very willing. These two don't even have a basic concept of the Spring Festival, and they have a feeling of P for the festival.

In previous years, Hong Tao went to his grandmother's house for the Spring Festival, where there were 2 uncles and several aunts, plus their families, everyone spent the festival together and was very lively, and at least 2 tables had to be opened to play mahjong, and from the first to the fifth day of the new year. Relatives and friends who come to pay New Year's greetings are continuous. It's almost time to open a flowing water seat, this is the atmosphere of the New Year.

As for the Spring Festival in a few years, Hong Tao plans to go to his grandmother's house to spend it, as for these two foreigners. Take it with you, too. Anyway, it's a matter of adding two pairs of chopsticks. It's a big deal that Hong Tao buys more New Year's goods and makes up for the two of them together.

When Hong Tao told Pan and Yerong about this decision, Pan was not very opposed. I just asked Hong Tao's grandmother about the approximate size of the Spring Festival dinner, and then I thought about what kind of clothes to wear and what kind of jewelry to bring. Ye Rong had no opinion, he never resisted this opportunity to eat and drink for nothing, but just asked Hong Tao to promise again not to pour him liquor.

In order to make the Chinese New Year's Eve a little more colorful, Hong Tao decided to make some blood this year, buy more firecrackers, and don't go to rub the firecrackers that his uncles and aunts bought for their children every year. However, Hong Tao didn't plan to let Pan and Yerong be idle, although they were guests, they still had to make some effort when it was time to contribute, as for what they could do, Hong Tao had already thought about it.

Early the next morning, Hong Tao drove Pan and Yerong on the road, from his house all the way to the southwest, from Dujiakan to the Jingshi Expressway, and went straight to Zhuozhou to kill. If you want to ask Hong Tao, why are you going? The answer is very simple, go and smuggle some fireworks into Beijing!

Fireworks! Or smuggling!? This is a must, Beijing has banned fireworks and firecrackers for several years, and Hong Tao can't remember exactly what the ban began that year, anyway, he has reservations about this ban. The experts say how many people are injured every year because of fireworks, how much money is wasted every year, and how much air is polluted every year. In Hong Tao's opinion, these reasons for banning are all Nima's farts! None of them are reliable.

Speaking of hurting people, mountaineering, swimming, paddling, and other sports that are also entertainment did not hurt and kill people that year, why didn't those sports be banned? In many foreign regions, there are also folk activities such as bull running festivals, bullfights, and cheese grabbing, and they are not banned!

Speaking of waste, the Christmas parade is not wasteful? National Day Parade Wasted No? Or are they all banned?

Talking about pollution is even more nonsense, because the officials' cars are dispatched a few times less, and they have to burn less oil every year, and if they want to reduce pollution, they must first reduce it, and only then can they get the people.

However, even though there is already this ban, Hong Tao himself does not have the ability to overturn it, and not only ban, but also ban the sale of fireworks, and only allow state-designated businesses to sell. The fireworks they sell are not only very expensive, but also very bad.

So where to get those cheap and good quality fireworks? The answer is simple: Hebei!

Beijing is banned, Hebei Province is not banned, and all kinds of firecrackers and fireworks are sold in those towns and cities close to Beijing, and every year in the first lunar month, there will be many roadside vendors in these places to sell these things to Beijingers passing by.

However, Hong Tao went a little late, and generally went to those places at least half a month in advance to purchase, and then stored at home. If it is too close to the Spring Festival to purchase, it will be a bit dangerous to transport back to Beijing, because at this time, there will be checkpoints on every highway into Beijing to inspect the vehicles entering Beijing, and if the owner is found to have hidden fireworks, he will be fined or administratively detained.

However, this little problem is still difficult for Hong Tao, if it were him, he would definitely not take this risk, but now it is different, he has two talismans: Pan and Yerong! With the two of them, the chances of success are still very high, as for what if they are really caught? Then you can only spend money to support the relationship, there is no absolute in everything in China, the law is like a monkey band, those who have the ability to loosen it, and those who are not able will be strangled to death by it!

As for whether Pan and Yeron will be in danger? 100% no, the Chinese now respect foreigners more than their own people, although not as good as the late Qing Dynasty served foreign adults, but in a few more years of development will be about the same. And the two of them don't understand a word of Chinese, even if they are discovered, Hong Tao can excuse them, they belong to the blinded innocent masses.

With this concept, Hong Tao ran all the way to Zhuozhou with a wicked smile, and randomly found a merchant who bought firecrackers, and then bought 100 fireworks bombs, 50 10 flash thunders, and 200 of the largest two kicks, and then picked some milder fireworks until the trunk was full.

After finishing these, Hong Tao didn't stay any longer, and even Pan's request to go to the market was rudely refused, and drove directly to Fangyi Road. Compared with highways, ordinary roads also have inspection cards, but they are relatively looser.

When the car passed Doudian, Hong Tao lied that he had a little headache, and fooled Ye Rong into the driver's seat, and he drove it, Pan sat in the passenger seat, and Hong Tao sat in the back seat. Sure enough, less than a kilometer away from the Fifth Ring Road, Hong Tao and they encountered a road inspection, when their car followed the traffic in front of them to the roadblock, the police in charge of the inspection saw that the car and the car were two foreigners, and then looked at the two Land Rover off-road vehicles with Hebei license plates, and even the interest in the inspection was gone, waved his hand, and let go.

"Yerong, we were used by him, he must have done something bad, and if he didn't do it well, he broke the law, so he used us as a shield." Shortly after the checkpoint, Pan spoke, and although she was speaking to Yeron, her eyes were on Hong Tao.

"Don't listen to her, you saw it, we just bought some fireworks, is it illegal in the Netherlands? I just don't want them to roll around in my car to let you drive. Hong Tao said righteous words, and he did not admit Pan's accusations against him.

"It shouldn't be illegal, right? It's better for you to drive, although I have an international driver's license, but I don't know if China needs to go through other procedures. Ye Rong confused Hong Tao and Pan, he felt that whoever said it had a little truth, and he couldn't tell the difference. (To be continued......)
