Chapter 156: Fruit Growers

I was amazed to hear Da Fei say that someone had really found gold.

I turned over to him and whispered, "You read it wrong, how can it be?" ”

Da Fei looked proud and said:

"That must be good, brother, when did I do a loss-making business, if there was no gold in the river, I didn't just flatten that grandson and keep him for the New Year?"

I always thought that panning for gold in this river was a joke, even if I saw the golden river with my own eyes, I thought it was wrong, but Da Fei said that he saw the golden pimple with his own eyes! This surprised me a bit!

Da Fei regards wealth as his life, not to mention anything else, he should not be wrong if it is gold, but after thinking about it, I still feel that it is wrong, looking at Da Fei's glowing eyes and asking:

"Tell me, how big are the gold lumps you see the fellow scooping up?"

Da Fei came to his senses and simply sat up. Stretch out your right hand and give me a thumbs up.

"It's such a big piece of a fingernail!"

I glanced at it and blurted out in surprise:

"Such a big piece?"

"That's still fake, I saw that fellow pick it out of the dirt and put it in his pocket."

I thought for a moment and shook my head:

"No, that big river of local tyrants is shining with gold, even if there is gold, it is all gold dust, think about it, if it is such a large lump of gold, it is all sunk into the bottom of the mud and sand, how can the river have a color?"

Da Fei listened to my words, arched his legs and shouted disappreciably:

"You don't care what color the river is, as long as there is gold in the river!" I'll find out what's going on tomorrow when I go shopping for another day! ”

After speaking, I was just about to lie down, but I pulled the collar and lifted it up.

"Da Fei, you are so confused, your uncle and xylophone are still locked up in the cellar!"

Da Fei saw that I was angry, and said disappreliably:

"Ahem, I'm worried about them too, but doesn't that person's words don't count, what can we do?"

Seeing that I hadn't spoken for a long time, he came over again and persuaded him for a while:

"Brother, don't worry, there are radishes in the cellar, and no one will die of hunger in a day or two, tomorrow we will go and help him finish the gold, if he goes back on his word, we will tie him up, come hard!"

Now that the dart is lost, I still expect the fat village chief Liu Xigui to help, I have to ask for help, and I don't know what misunderstanding there is in the middle, and it is definitely the last helpless move to hurt people.

I sighed, and in the end I could only reluctantly take one step at a time, I only hope that the man can speak and count this time, after all, successfully rescuing Hu Badao is the most important thing at the moment!

Early the next morning, Da Fei and I were still nesting in the cowshed, and we were woken up by a crisp cough.

When I opened my eyes, it was the man with a towel on his forehead, somehow, today he was very energetic, with a smile on his face, his forehead was reflective, and the whole person was full of energy.

When he woke up, he threw over a bag of flatbread from the dustpan.

"Let's eat!"

The two of us were not polite, sat up, took out the flatbread and nibbled on it.

"Big brother, why are you here so early today? Today's gold panning has changed the time? ”

The man grinned, threw the dustpan away, and sat down beside the two of us.

"Isn't it afraid that you will be hungry, the freshly baked green onion cake will be sent to you to eat a hot one!"

Da Fei smiled when he heard this:

"Big brother, I didn't ask you yesterday, how did you get the results, did you find gold?"

I sat on the right side of the man, chewing flatbread in my mouth, and deliberately paid attention to his expression, I noticed that when Da Fei mentioned the word "gold", his face was obviously stiff, but he returned to normal in an instant, and responded with a smile:

"How can it be so easy to shop? Didn't find it, didn't find it! ”

I continued to ask:

"Oh, the river is shining, I thought it was gold to catch a handful, why is it so difficult to find, so has anyone in your village found gold over the years?"

The man waved his hand: "Then there must be, someone must have found gold, otherwise who would want to spend so much money...."

Halfway through his words, the man suddenly realized that something was wrong and stopped abruptly.

I glanced at Da Fei inexplicably, and the man also felt that he was talking a little too much, so he stood up and patted the floating ash on his body:

"Okay, you two take a rest after eating, I have to go back and prepare, come back in the afternoon!" After saying that, I got up and was about to leave.

I chewed the flatbread in my mouth and quickly stopped:

"Big brother! Well, my brothers and I will help you find gold for another afternoon today, and you will have to tell us which cellar the gang is kept in! ”

The man smiled, and changed back to his fake and honest appearance.

"Well, as long as you work hard this afternoon, if you really help me find gold, I will not only tell you where they are held, but I will also help you release them!"

After saying this, the man did not look back, and walked straight down the hill.

Looking at his distant back, Da Fei nudged me and said:

"Dude, do you notice anything different about this kid today?"

"How obvious, get up early in the morning to bring us flatbread, and when I saw him talking just now, my happy mouth was about to grin to the root of my ears."

Da Fei laughed, pointed to the man's back and said:

"yes, look at him, the aisles are windy! It's about to float. ”

"You say, what happy thing can he be happy about being like this?"

Da Fei tore a piece of flatbread and threw it into his mouth, rolled his eyes, and said:

"I guess, this kid found gold yesterday!"

I was stunned when I heard this, and was just about to speak, when Da Fei Shen asked me again:

"Did you find anything different about everyone after yesterday's gold panning?"

What's different, I thought about it and shook my head:

"It's no different, what do you mean?"

"Hey" Da Fei laughed and said:

"Yesterday we finished panning for gold, and the first thing most people did was to take off their masks!"

I didn't really pay attention to this little detail at the time, and looking back now, I don't remember it at all.

Everyone wore a big mask to cover their faces before work, for fear that they would be recognized if they found gold, and if they returned empty-handed, they would naturally have nothing to take off the mask, I was thinking along this line of thought....

Da Fei blurted out:

"The fellow who found gold next to me ran away in a hurry wearing a mask after the end, I took a cursory glance at the time, except for him and the two of us who didn't take off their masks yesterday, and then this thief!"

Listening to Da Fei say this, I feel that there is some truth. This man is insidious and cunning, if there is no great good thing, how can he be so kind to send us a big cake?

"Da Fei, you said that since their village really has a river that can pan for gold, why is the living standard of the villagers still so poor?"

With that, I climbed up a low wall of the cowshed, pointed to the distance, and continued:

"There's gold in the river, who the still farms, but look at the crops!"

Da Fei was stopped by me for a while, and followed me to climb to the low wall and stand and look into the distance.

"Yes, relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, relying on the sea to eat the sea, this village is next to a local tyrant Jin River, why are you still so poor!"

The two of us were pondering in a daze, when we suddenly heard someone behind us scolding:

"Okay, you two fruit thieves!!"

I turned my head in surprise and saw a young man behind me, holding a dung fork in his hand, angrily pointing at me and Da Fei and spitting out the kernels on the ground.
