Chapter 726: The Shopkeeper

A few of us discussed it for a while. Pan Donghan still thinks it's better not to go!

Uncle Sun maintained a neutral attitude. Sun Hanhan is a little worried. She was worried that Chu Qingqing was arrested by the people in Shangxi Village, maybe she wrote me this letter to ask me for help!

Pan Donghan couldn't help but complain.

"Even if you get caught, what can you do! She's a murderer, she's just a murderer, and if something happens, something will happen!"

I shook my head.

"After all, it's a girl, and she should save someone's life!"

Sun Hanhan nodded desperately.

"Yes! It's supposed to save the lives of other girls!"

Uncle Sun said next to him.

"Decide for yourselves, I'm an old bone anyway! I definitely don't want to go into the mountains. I'm alone at home guarding the shop, and if you go, you can go by yourself!"

I said, "Uncle Sun, don't worry, I didn't want to take you with me.

Hanhan can't go either, Hanhan is a girl after all. In a place like Upper West Village, the group of people were red-eyed when they saw women. It's too dangerous for girls to go up the mountain, and they will definitely not be released by the people in the village! I want Brother Pan to accompany me.

The two of us are not afraid of any danger, so even if we go to Shangxi Village, nothing will happen.

I know over there in Upper West Village, and I've heard that they have a lot of wild pears on the mountain. Then every household in those villagers would string the pears and dry them into dried pears.

There are also some small traders and hawkers who will enter the village to collect these dried pears and apricots. When I was in the market, those small merchants and vendors sold it, and the price of a pound was not cheap. But the taste is really good, sweet and sour, it's really delicious. It's really not good, after the two of us go up the mountain, we will go up the mountain to collect dried pears! By the way, buy more, wholesale some cheap ones, and usually use them as desserts!"

Pan Donghan listened to my words and sighed helplessly.

"Alas! Speaking of the sky, you just want to go up the mountain. I just want to go over and see the woman named Chu Qingqing. Go if you want, I'll be with you!"

Early the next morning, Brother Pan and I set off from the longevity shop. Kaminishi Village is not far from us at all, because the road is difficult to walk in the mountains. First I sat in a passenger car for more than an hour, then changed to a tractor, and finally sat in a donkey cart for a while, even so, Brother Pan and I climbed the mountain road for more than two hours. I finally walked into Upper West Village.

Walking into the village, the poverty here is simply beyond our imagination. I can't imagine that this is a northern city, and this is the periphery of the eastern city.

The poverty of Upper West Village is like a dry loess slope with a lack of water! I even feel that the life of the people here is simply the life of the people of the previous era. Even my grandparents wouldn't have had such a hard time when they were young!

The houses of every family are very dilapidated, and there are no blue brick houses, just ordinary mud houses. There was not a single woman in sight in the whole village, all men were outside.

The clothes worn by those men were all patched, and they were all unkempt, and they always felt that they smelled!

We had just entered the village, and all the men in the village looked at me and Lao Pan with strange eyes.

At the entrance of the village, there is a particularly dilapidated shop.

This shop is also the only luxurious place in the village. net

Walking into the small shop, the things in it are even less pitiful. Not even ice cream for 5 cents. Some are at most two cents Xiaoice sticks, or they are large popsicles frozen out of their own household sugar water. Such a thing can even be called ice cream!

The owner of the shop is also a man. When I entered the store, it was in tatters, and I didn't know what to buy.

I asked, "Is there any smoke?"

The boss looked me up and down.

"Yes, dry tobacco or cigarettes?"

"Cigarettes!" I say.

The boss said, "Did you deliver the goods from the bottom of the mountain, or did you receive the goods? Most of us here buy dry tobacco, and we can smoke it for more than ten days for one dollar!

Cigarettes are expensive, and people in the village don't buy them. So we don't have many small stores, I have a soft red tower mountain here, you can take 80 yuan!"

The price is really not expensive! I paid for cigarettes and asked the owner of the shop about it.

"We're up the hill to receive the goods! Harvest the dried pears. I don't have the money, so I'm going to give you an affordable price.

It's just that I don't know the people in the village, and I don't know which one to put away! What's more, I won't be able to go down the mountain for the past two days, and I don't know where I live!"

When the owner of the shop heard this, he must have been a flexible man, about 40 years old, and although he was dressed in tatters, at least he did not smell on his body.

The boss smiled at me.

"It turned out that they came down from the mountain to receive the goods! If you want to receive it, I can help you. But you've got to do me something!"

I thought about it for a long time.

"How much?" I understand this truth, although money is a bastard, it is easy to use everywhere.

The shopkeeper didn't have a lion's mouth, and probably regarded us as the ones who collected dried pears, so he knew that we didn't have much oil and water on us, and we couldn't slaughter us.

"Well, give me 50 dollars! I'll let you stay at my house for two days, and then I'll take you from house to house to collect dried pears!"

Damn! 50 yuan, are the villagers in this village so rustic? What is 50 yuan for? To be honest, it's just three catties of dried pears at the bottom of the mountain!

I asked Pan Donghan to take out 500 and give it to the owner of the commissary.

"Big brother, I think you're a very real person! I'm not someone who wants to keep my eyes hidden. I'll give you more, you have to let us eat and live well for the next two days. To tell you the truth, this brother of mine is a delicate man! If his life is too bad, he is afraid that he will not be able to stand it, and he will probably go down the mountain noisily tomorrow!"

When the owner of the shop heard this, he nodded again and again.

"No problem! I'll borrow meat in a while, and I'll fry you in oil at night. Make sure you eat and drink well!"

Oh my god, the people in this village even have to borrow meat for dinner!
