Excerpt from "Lao Gang's Autobiography" -

Hello everyone! I am Lao Gang, specializing in casting sewers for many years, please contact my agent if you have business. Lao Bo told me many times that the "cast" in the sewer was written incorrectly, and he said that you always write "cast sewer" everywhere, and people think you are going to commit suicide. But the advertising slogans in our industry have always been like this, making life feel like death.

You know, business has always been difficult, and we don't blame it, right?

Some friends may ask, is it still good to be an agent for casting sewers? Lao Bo is my friend, who usually sends some books and periodicals and express delivery to people to spread spiritual and material civilization. He works for other people, unlike me who has a career of his own. So in order to promote him, I hired him with no basic salary.

The old man's specialty is storytelling, which is different from me. I'm in business, such as throwing sewers, repairing range hoods, and changing window screens......

Uh, does that sound familiar to you? It's definitely not Henanese! I've come across a lot of strange things in my career, and if you like it, I'll tell you about it slowly.

That day, Lao Bo told me that in the last century in Linzi's Heyatou Village, there was a merchant who walked the streets and alleys, and the nature of his work was similar to mine, and he hoped that I would understand the income level and business scope of the merchant, and see if I could learn a little experience and lengthen our industrial chain.

In line with the actual situation of having nothing to do, as well as the beautiful vision of career development, Lao Gang and the two ran to Yatou Village of Linzi River. The gate of Heyatou Village, all made of white marble, is quite spectacular, surrounded by high-definition surveillance, Lao Gang and the two of them stood at the entrance of the village on a motorcycle, almost losing the courage to serve the villagers.

One by one, "Lao Gang's Autobiography" is over. It is normal for autobiography to hit the street so quickly.

Excerpt from "Old Bore's Diary" -

Tonight, I opened the newspaper again, it was really unbelievable, in 1964, there was a major event in the village of Yatou on the Linzi River, more than 600 dead horses were found for the first time, and these horses all pointed to one person - Qi Jinggong. In the pit of the horses, except for the horses, there was not a single burial item, and the only copper bell was accidentally trampled during the excavation in 1971.

Qi Jinggong's tomb was later excavated and found to be an empty tomb, which is said to have been stolen long ago. In that year, a major change occurred in the Qi State - Tian was the generation of Qi, and Tian Heng killed Qi Jinggong's grandson Qi Jiangong, which caused Confucius's anger, and Confucius bathed and changed his clothes and asked to enter the palace to ask Lu Aigong to send troops to attack Qi. But he was rejected by Lu Aigong. Some people who study Qi culture found that the minister of Qi at that time believed that the name of the country could not be faked, so he transported the important weapon of Qi out of Linzi, hoping to help Jiang Qi restore the country. But Jiang Qi's national fortunes have been exhausted, and Tian Qi is like the sky, and he has become the Seven Heroes of the Warring States. These famous artifacts were lost outside Linzi.

I pondered that the most mysterious place around Linzi is Boshan - Qinglong Mountain, Baihu Mountain, Phoenix Mountain, Black Mountain, the four sacred mountains, interlocking, like a natural labyrinth, as if guarding a treasure. To uncover the secrets of the small city of Boshan, you must go to the Linzi Martyrdom Pit. It is the source of all secrets, and all the answers should be found.

At two o'clock in the afternoon that day, Lao Gang rode Haojue 125 with Lao Bo and got on National Highway 309. This is also a way to no way, the old boring electric three-wheeled can't run long distances. Lao Gang once solemnly promised to Lao Bo that when his career became bigger, he would buy a Wuling Hongguang and sell it to Lao Bo at a discount of 125, and if his career became bigger, he would change it to BMW and sell Wuling Hongguang to Lao Bo at a discount. (That's how the old electric tricycle was purchased.) ）

About an hour later, the two men found Heyatou Village. At the entrance of the village, Lao Gang stopped an old man who was enjoying the shade. "Old man, I'll ask you about something. In the past, there was a merchant here who walked the streets, I don't know if you have any impressions? ”

"A merchant walking the streets? Do you want to buy something? Now we have a supermarket in our village......"

Lao Bo hurriedly stopped the old man's words, "That's right, old man, we are here to inspect the project, is there anyone in your village whose sewer is blocked, we can come to help cast the sewer." ”

"Is it free to cast the sewer? It's not free, no, no, no, we all vote in person. ”

Lao Gang understands the mentality of being anxious to start business, but if you don't chat like this, you open your mouth and let the old people spend money, which is unfilial. The way to turn family affection into serving the people is to pay attention to filial piety first, so you can't raise money, you have to be closer than your son. When we enter the house, you can't run away, and then increase the price layer by layer. For example, you don't need money to cast sewers, but you are charged a small amount of material fees, and if you are given the tools to cast sewers, other people's homes will not be able to use them, and they can be left directly in your home, so that you can use them at any time in the future. But this tool costs about two or three hundred yuan, which can be cheaper, so let's charge a cost price of 150, and this money is not enough for our cost.

In fact, this tool is sold for one or twenty yuan, but if you say it bluntly, I charge 150 yuan for labor, the old people will be unhappy, and if they are unhappy, they will not want to give money, and labor is not worth it in their eyes. These old people have been working for nothing since they were children, and they never think that labor is worth anything, but you say that this thing is high-tech, polymer, and high-nano, which is definitely more than 150 yuan, he not only believes it, but also thinks that he has made a lot of money.

Besides, a man like Lao Gang who is five big and three rough enters your house, and the old people are generally very polite.

Lao Gang criticized Lao Bo's impatient and aggressive attitude, emphasized the business experience of this industry, and then the two of them changed to an old man to inquire.

Fortunately, there is no shortage of old men in the village, and it will take time to find more than a dozen. At the head of Heyatou Village, there are many old men who enjoy the shade here.

To get back to the point, according to the old people in the village, there was a merchant who bought daily necessities, miscellaneous goods, matches and needlework. His whereabouts are uncertain, I don't know when he came, it was the Japanese pseudo-period at that time, and now he can remember the point alive, how can he be seventy or eighty years old. Even if there is an impression, it is estimated that it is not reliable. "I remember one thing, it seems that I am a Boshan person, and I listen to the mantra is almost the same, always saying, 'old call, old call'. At that time, we often bought some needles and threads, matches, and other necessities with him. It doesn't cost a few bucks, and sometimes it doesn't cost much. The old man said that at that time, there were many horse bones in the local area, which are the horse bones in the current martyrdom pit, and they can be exchanged for matches directly.

Lao Gang knew that the horse pit could be a local treasure, and the development of tourism depended on this pile of horse bones. Why did this merchant change his horse bones back then? This question aroused Lao Gang's interest. The profession of a rural merchant is similar to repairing window screens and throwing sewers, in that they walk between different groups of people and earn a small return through their own labor to support their families. The difference is that the merchant is in the countryside, and Lao Gang is in the city.

What does a merchant want from a horse?

In the same way, if a person who throws the sewer and throws it into the sewer, he doesn't ask you for money, but he hits a dog food bowl in front of your house, will this cause you to be suspicious and vigilant?

The most worrying point is that the merchant exchanged groceries for horse bones, which did not arouse any vigilance from the people of Heyatou Village. On the contrary, everyone thinks it's a good thing. Therefore, people continue to dig up horse bones to make deals with merchants.

Lao Gang suddenly remembered the Japanese spy that the local media had reported - Shimazaki Yuji, he once came to Linzi to shoot the festival of filial piety, Linzi City at that time is now Qidu Town, which is not far from the martyrdom pit.

Those Japanese spies, they often disguised themselves as merchants and walked around the land of China, sometimes to explore intelligence, sometimes to draw maps of dangerous passes, and sometimes to collect precious cultural relics scattered among the people!

Could this merchant be the Japanese spy Yakuharu Shimazaki back then? Did Yashiharu Shimazaki learn his Chinese dialect in the Boshan area? So with a bit of a Boshan accent? It's an interesting clue.

In 1929, Shimazaki Yuji photographed the festival in Linzi City, which is now Qidu Town, not far from that place to Heyatou Village.

Lao Bo told Lao Gang that there are many records about Japanese spies, and we know that at that time, China and Japan were in a state of war, and ordinary civilians often turned into spies. This also depends on the mentality of the civilian, if the mentality is more extreme, it is easy to develop into a spy. But in a state of war, it is easy for everyone's mood to become extreme.

"You mean to say that everybody is a spy?" Lao Gang thought that Lao Bo was joking.

"Of course, who do you think is immune to this situation?" "Hurry up, there's a stick in front of us, let's go see what we can take home." ”

In many cases, petty theft is something that spies often do. Lao Gang and the two have no bottom line, which is what the locals often call thief bones. A thief's bones mean that he is a thief from the bones.

In fact, Lao Gang has been thinking about why Lao Bo encouraged himself to come to Linzi and run dozens of kilometers on a motorcycle, of course, not to invest in sewers and open up new businesses. He also knew that horse bones were relics, but they couldn't be sold for money now.

"You must not have come here to see the girl when you ran so far, right?" Lao Gang thinks that the girls in Heyatou Village are not so attractive.

"Of course, you kid hurry up and help break a few sticks, and we'll go home and cook and eat." Lao Bo said that he studied some information and found that some people bought horse bones here during the Anti-Japanese War, and he felt that there was a lot of article in it. Of course, Lao Bo also hid a joint with Lao Gang, he knew that there was a national treasure involved, but he couldn't tell Lao Gang for the time being, after talking about it, not only would he not expand his thinking, but he couldn't make Lao Gang turn his head and call out. By then, it'll be full of treasure hunters.
