Chapter Twenty-Nine: There Are Thieves
The mountain bearer said that digging ginseng is not called digging, but lifting, which is enough to show his respect for ginseng, and also shows that the process of digging is careful.
Therefore, the process is very long, and a large ginseng tree often takes a day or even more time.
Zhou Tiantian found five ginseng, it is estimated that it is not small, Han Lixin has no time to go to work, and Zhenan Zhenhong has no experience, so only Old Man Han and Chang Yanzhe are the two of them who carry the ginseng, and this time is naturally very long.
By the evening, Old Man Han had just dug up one, and as for Chang Yanzhe, the ginseng on the stump had just revealed half of it.
Only one of the five ginseng trees was dug up, and everyone did not dare to be careless.
Han Lixin didn't go home from work, and led a few boys to build a shack in the forest at night, holding a shotgun and guarding it.
As soon as it was dawn in the morning, everyone began to move, and even the food was sent to the forest by Lily and Yanyan.
Originally, Han Lixin wanted to ask for leave, and the eldest and second eldest of the Han family also wanted to ask for leave, but Old Man Han didn't let him.
If you move the people like this, others will see that there is a problem, isn't it known to everyone who is making trouble?
There was no way, Han Lixin still went to work, and Han Liren and Han Liwei didn't dare to come to the mountain, anyway, they all felt like cat's paws.
Chang Yanzhe spent another whole day digging out the ginseng on the stake.
Good guy, that ginseng is as thick as Zhou Tiantian's arm, the main body has to be six or seven inches, the roots are more than a foot long, and the ginseng reed head alone is more than ten centimeters.
"Oh, it's terrible, this ginseng has to be at least seven or eight taels, or four or five hundred years.
Baby, definitely baby. Old Man Han looked at the big ginseng dug up by Chang Yanzhe and was amazed.
"Tiantian, this child is really blessed, you see that I brought out this tree today, and it is not small.
There are two more, we have to suffer a little sin tonight, keep it all night, and tomorrow they will all be carried out, and I will bring a letter to Uncle Tiantian to come up and escort you down the mountain. ”
Old Man Han looked at the mountain ginseng dug up, and became more and more cautious while being happy.
The two children met ginseng in the mountains, and it is estimated that they will not be able to hide it for a long time.
There are still others on the mountain, the Han family has been guarding the mountain for the past two days, and if they don't keep it, they will fall into the eyes of others.
So the old man had already told Han Lixin that he would let Han Liren and his son come up the mountain to live tomorrow night, and escort Zhou Tiantian and his party down the mountain the morning after tomorrow.
With the skills of the Han family, even if someone has bad intentions, they don't dare to make a mistake if they want to.
Old Man Han did not expect it badly, the people who guarded the garden together on the mountain, and indeed someone noticed the abnormality of the Han family.
On the third day after Zhou Tiantian discovered the mountain ginseng, some people went to Old Man Han's residence to inquire about the news, and some people secretly followed Zhou Lili and Zhou Yanyan, who delivered food, to see what the Han family was doing.
Fortunately, there are the four boys of the Han family, they are very shrewd, they patrol the forest respectively, intercept people halfway, and no one finds anything.
But even so, everyone was a little nervous, but fortunately, on the evening of the third day, the last two ginseng trees were also brought out.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, cut a sign in a nearby tree, and then carefully returned to the ginseng garden with the ginseng.
Han Liren led his son Han Zhensheng up the mountain in a car, and when the old man saw his eldest son and eldest grandson, he called the two of them to the house and talked carefully.
Han Liren's father and son were also shocked when they heard it, they just heard Han Liwei say that they had met ginseng on the mountain, but Han Liwei didn't know exactly what the situation was.
So at this time, when I heard the old man say that a total of five trees were found, and they were all very large, and the smallest one had to be four or five taels, the father and son were dumbfounded.
No wonder the old man would let them come up, these are all treasures, and they are also the roots and seedlings of trouble.
Everyone was on the mountain, and they didn't know if anyone was watching them secretly, so everyone was very cautious, and no one asked to see the ginseng or anything like that.
At night, everyone is lying in their clothes and is vigilant at all times.
Old man Han is old, and digging ginseng is a very physical and mental work, plus he stayed up for two nights in a row, so he couldn't stand it, and he didn't wait until midnight to fall asleep.
Chang Yanzhe and the boys of the Han family also stayed up a lot, they were quite energetic at first, but they couldn't stay up and fell asleep in the second half of the night.
Fortunately, Han Liren and the two were in good spirits, each holding a gun and sitting on the kang, keeping an eye on the movement outside.
There was nothing abnormal all night, and at about three o'clock in the morning, the east faintly flushed with fish belly white, the two of them stayed up all night and didn't close their eyes, at this time they finally breathed a sigh of relief and sat there napping.
Just when the two of them closed their eyes and stared, they suddenly heard someone talking loudly, "Someone is coming." ”
Han Liren and the two woke up as soon as they were excited, grabbed the gun and walked out, "Who is here?" Where? ”
At this time, they heard a panicked footsteps outside, and the two immediately chased them out, and saw two figures running away quickly.
When Han Liren saw that he couldn't catch up, he was a little angry, and he raised his gun and fired a shot into the sky.
At this moment, the people in the house were alarmed, and Old Man Han and the others were awakened from their sleep and rushed out in a hurry.
"Liren, what's going on?" The old man hurriedly asked.
"Dad, someone was outside our house just now, but fortunately I heard someone talking and woke me up.
There were two shadows, running towards that end. Han Liren pointed in the direction of the black shadow's escape.
"This person is very shrewd, and he chose it almost dawn, which is really a bit hanging." Han Liren was a little afraid.
At this time, people are most sleepy, and the vigilance is not so strong when it is almost dawn, if he is not awakened, I really don't know what the result will be.
"It must be the people on the mountain, those dogs are scattered, but I don't hear the dogs barking at this time, they are acquaintances."
Old Man Han sighed, "Let's make people watch, this matter needs to be considered in the long run, be careful." ”
No matter where you are, there are good people and bad people, and if you don't really encounter something, no one knows whether there are people or ghosts around you.
Let's take these seven or eight people in the field as an example, they usually look very good, and they also have special respect for Old Man Han.
But that's all superficial, and once you encounter huge benefits, your true face will be revealed.
"Well, it's going to have to be discussed." Han Liren's expression was also a little solemn.
"By the way, who was shouting just now? If it hadn't woken me up, I guess it would have been touched into the house. Han Liren suddenly remembered this and hurriedly asked.
Everyone behind him looked dazed, looked at each other and shook their heads, they all slept soundly, no one spoke.
"It's Tiantian, that child dreams and talks in his dreams." At this time, Mrs. Han came out of the house with a crying and laughing expression.
Everyone was collectively petrified, and after a long time, the old man came and said, "This baby is blessed." ”
