Chapter 5: Snowfield Forest and Sea Ganggangzi Battalion
Soon, the three of them carried large bags and small bags, as well as a black and white TV set sponsored by Big Golden Tooth, all of which were gifts for the villagers, all of which were candied fruits, toffee, canned food, chocolate, tea and the like, which could not be eaten in the mountains, and the rest of the money was exchanged for national food stamps on the black market.
Get on the green train to Inner Mongolia and run all the way to the northeast.
"Hey! I said fatty, you're still energetic! Hu Bayi saw that Wang Fatzi was reading hard along the way with an archaeological book that he had bought from the big gold tooth, not to mention how high his energy was.
"The so-called do a line of love, love a line of dedication." Wang Fatzi kept his eyes on the book, and shook his head.
However, his answer got both of them to look at each other, no one knows more about Wang Fatzi than them, and likes everything, except that he doesn't like to study, and he didn't graduate from junior high school.
I had heard that the green train in the 70s and 80s was very slow, but I didn't expect it to be so slow, the three of them sat for two days and two nights, and after arriving at the station, they took a tractor for another day, rested in a small hotel for one night, and only carried their things into the mountains the next day.
"Oops, no! I can't walk anymore! "The three of them have to carry a weight of about seventy or eighty pounds, and they are still walking on a mountain road, which is extremely physically demanding, and it is only half a day, and the fat man can't walk.
Hu Bayi was not used to him, so he kicked him in the ass and said, "Where is this?" A day and a night on the road! Hurry up. ”
"If I knew I wouldn't have brought so many things!" Wang Fatzi complained as he walked, but he didn't say anything to throw away, things are very precious in this era, and wasting food is not only shameful, but even criticized.
"Old Hu, fat man, there seems to be a donkey cart behind us." Qin Luo's eyesight was excellent, and he inadvertently saw a donkey pulling a wooden cart slowly coming far behind them.
Since there is a car, let's try to catch it, in case it can be hit, it can save a lot of effort, so the three of them rested on the side of the road while waiting for the donkey cart to slowly approach.
The donkey cart approached, and I saw that the driver was an old man in his sixties, and there was only a girl in the car who was eighteen or nineteen years old, with delicate looks and eyes, and more importantly, they were both somewhat familiar.
"Are you ...... Hu, Chubby and Brother Luo, right? The old man looked at them, hesitated, and asked uncertainly, after all, they hadn't seen each other for more than ten years, although they felt that the two people in front of them were familiar, but they couldn't remember who they were for a while.
"Old Uncle Luo...... You are Uncle Luo! The thing in the hand of the fat man fell to the ground unconsciously, walked quickly to the old man, and said excitedly, obviously he recognized the old man who was driving the car.
After a conversation, both sides evoked memories of the past, not to mention how cordial the tone was, although this era was backward, but the feelings between people were the strongest, no different from relatives.
Sitting on the donkey cart, the speed is much faster than before, and it used to take a day and a night, but now you can enter the village almost after the sun sets, and you don't have to spend the night in the wilderness.
Chatting all the way, I learned from Uncle Luo that the girl in front of me was the accountant of their village, and she went to the county seat to do business this time, and she happened to meet them when she came back.
"Wear the forest sea, praise the snow field ......!"
Walking through this section of the mountain road, the vision in front of you suddenly opened, the lush coniferous forest nearby, the snow-capped snow-capped mountains in the distance bordered by the blue sky, a magnificent scenery unique to Inner Mongolia came into view, Wang Fatzi did not feel tired, and sang mountain songs.
As soon as the donkey cart entered the village, the news of their return spread instantly, and the men, women and children of the whole village came out of their homes, surrounded them in one go, asking long and short questions, the enthusiasm was so high that people were moved, and the corners of the eyes of Lao Hu and the fat man were faintly glittering.
"Brother Bayi, Fat Brother ......!" A clear voice came from the courtyard, it was Yanzi who ran out with her pair of children, holding their hands excitedly, tears couldn't help but stay, and said, "You have been gone for so many years, why don't you know that you will come back?" I miss you guys! ”
"Aren't we coming back?" Wang Fatzi is also very sad, how many decades can there be in life, the teenage girl is already the mother of two children, and the world has changed.
"Little brother, do you still know to come back?" When Yanzi saw Qin Luo, she couldn't avoid suspicion, so she hugged him in her arms and choked up: "Don't you recognize me as a sister?" ”
Compared with Lao Hu and Wang Fatzi, he is about the same age as Yanzi, Yanzi is a few months older than him, because he is young, so he is the most favored, at the beginning Yanzi's family really raised him as his own son, especially after learning that his parents died, and even wanted him to pass directly to Yanzi's family, but he later refused.
At this time, the old branch secretary walked out tremblingly under the support of several people, and the old hand stopped the three of them, and said in an excited voice: "Okay! Good! Good! The chairman's child is back! ”
When they first came to cut the line, the one who cared about them the most was the old branch secretary, and after they got into trouble, the old branch secretary helped them wipe their buttocks, and he also had the deepest feelings for the old branch secretary.
Walking into the fence yard, a few more women and children came out to welcome, but only the middle-aged man was missing, Lao Hu asked curiously.
"They were all hired by the archaeological team to work." Yanzi explained to them that during the Tangshan earthquake, Niuxin Mountain was cracked, and the tomb of Empress Dowager Xiao was shaken out, and the national archaeological team came here to conduct a protective investigation.
The three of them glanced at each other, and an ominous premonition hit their hearts, there was an archaeological team coming, and they had to weigh and weigh if they wanted to dig graves, and if they didn't get it right, all the previous investment would be wasted.
But the more he was afraid, the more he came, when Hu Bayi proposed to collect the "vegetable jar" used to pickle pickles in the backyard of Yanzi's house, he was told that these antiques were taken away by the archaeological team in the name of handing over to the state a month ago, and only a few tickets were subsidized.
And the old branch secretary has the highest consciousness, no one is left, and all of them are handed in.
They could never have imagined that their ambitions came all the way from Beijing, intending to fight against the water, but they were poured cold water.
Lao Hu and Wang Fatzi were worried, even if a large pot of game made by the swallow was eaten in their mouths, it didn't taste good, and they went back to sleep after drinking a few cups with the old branch secretary.
On the contrary, it was Qin Luo, who enjoyed the enthusiasm of the old branch secretary's family very much, but he didn't care too much about whether he could receive antiques, no matter how he said it, he couldn't starve to death with his ability, and there was a way to get money later, but as a result, more than half of the pheasant, hare, and roe deer meat entered his stomach, not to mention how full he was.
"I said Chief of Staff Qin, aren't you worried, what can we do in the future?" Seeing that he was extremely relaxed from beginning to end, Wang Fatzi asked unwillingly.
"What to do? Cold! Qin Luo pulled the quilt and slept with his head covered, he was tired from the rush in the past few days, and now he is full of food and drink, so he will sleep first.
"That's right! Cold! ”
Wang Fatzi looked at Hu Bayi, but he didn't expect Hu Bayi, like Qin Luo, to sleep with his head covered, leaving Wang Fatzi there alone in a daze.
"Hey! I say......! ”
