Chapter 563: Vasno
After a few days, the relationship between John and Wuqi became harmonious and harmonious.
At the same time, not only John, but also Fluttershy becomes more and more cheerful and lively as she is told various novel stories. Although Fluttershy still looks so shocking, unlike before, Fluttershy no longer has sadness or unhappiness on her face, but only a smile, a happy smile.
Naturally, McClair is very happy that Wuqi can stay, although it has only been three years, but he is very satisfied to have Wuqi accompany Fluttershy for three years. And, with Wuqi by her side, Fluttershy becomes more cheerful and smiles, his mood gets better and better, and of course his relationship with Wuqi becomes closer.
Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, a week passed before I knew it. Compared with the past decades, a week's time is not worth mentioning for Meteor Village, but what all the villagers of Meteor Village didn't expect was that just one week of time would bring huge changes to the entire Meteor Village.
First of all, the villagers of Meteor Village welcomed a group of merchants from a small town in the far north. These merchants are different from the merchants who have come to trade in Meteor Village before, although they are all from the same city, their style is not like real merchants, but like some philanthropists who have both wealth and status and reputation.
The number of merchants was not much, only about twenty people, but each of them was very tall and strong, and his arms were as thick as the thighs of ordinary people. However, it is very strange that these people are five big and three thick, but their facial features are particularly exquisite, not only with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, but also with blonde hair and blue eyes, and they are rare handsome men at first glance.
If it weren't for these people who came here dressed as merchants, I'm afraid that all the villagers of Meteor Village would have thought that they had come to their village with nobles.
This is the first change that happened in Meteor Village during the week. Although the village is small, there are more than 20 guests from afar, which makes the whole village fall into a state of excitement.
The next thing that changed was the lives of the villagers. A week ago, both the village chief and the most ordinary children lived a very simple and simple life, except for work every day, rest, free time, at most with neighbors or friends to drink, chat, gamble a handful or two, there is no other way to entertain at all.
But when these northern merchants came to the village, everything changed. As soon as they came to the village, they took out all kinds of things for entertainment from the huge suitcases they brought with them and gave them to the villagers for free, and if the villagers could not use them, they would patiently teach them one by one, until they had completely taught everyone they wanted to learn, and then they would teach another person who wanted to learn.
The northern merchants were small in number, but they brought many forms of entertainment, ranging from basketball, football, and baseball for the village children to enjoy, as well as dancing, singing, and boxing for adults. In short, in almost just one week, the lifestyle of the villagers of Meteor Village has changed dramatically.
At night, when there was little firelight, the whole village would be immersed in a quiet and serene atmosphere, but now almost every house will be lit up at night, friends and neighbors will be gathered, or singing, or dancing, the atmosphere is no longer quiet, and the whole village becomes lively.
Of course, not all villagers can accept these changes. Although most of the villagers in Meteor Village are happy to accept these changes, there are still a small number of people who disagree with these changes. The McClair family and the village chief's family are representatives of the opposition.
However, if the change was only that, then the reasonable village chief and McClair would not have been so opposed to these northern merchants, and what really brought them together and resolutely resisted the northern merchants was the third change brought about by these people. ...,
Today, I, Vasno, on behalf of our small town in the north, would like to recommend a new thing to you, as long as we have this thing, no matter what we do, it will be much more convenient, and we will no longer have to go out to work on a hot day. As long as everyone stays at home, they can enjoy the fruits of their daily labor. ”
The man who spoke, named Vasno, was the leader of these more than twenty northern merchants, he was average-looking, and his appearance was not outstanding among the more than twenty merchants, but he had a pair of special eyes.
This eye is actually not too special, but it is much more slender than ordinary people, and if you look closely, it is more like two crooked gaps, but the gaze shot from these two gaps is different, particularly sharp, and people can't help but feel chills when they look at it.
Today is the seventh day since Vasno came to Meteor Village, and his words just now are a deliberate word of praise for the sake of what he has brought. Of course, these things he brought were the third changes he wanted to bring to Meteor Village.
At this moment, Vasno was standing on an artificially constructed high platform, and on his left and right were standing the remaining twenty or so merchants. The businessmen gathered in a square shape, all smiling at the villagers of Meteor Village who were watching under the stands, and behind them, a huge curtain was covering the center of the stands.
The curtain bulged high, and it was obvious that there was a large object inside, but it was so firmly covered by the curtain that it was impossible to see what was inside.
"What the hell is Vasno?"
"Yes! Vasno, don't sell it. Lift the cloth and let's see what's there. ”
"Vasno! ”
At this moment, the eager voices of the villagers sounded under the stands, Vasno nodded slightly, smiled mysteriously at the villagers, and finally turned to the center of the stands, pinched a corner of the curtain, and then, in an instant, the huge curtain was lifted, revealing the true face of the thing inside, which turned out to be a machine.
It was the first time that the villagers under the stands saw a machine that only a small town could have, and although they were curious, they were also a little disappointed. The reason is very simple, they don't know what this thing is for.
Vasno saw the villagers' thoughts at a glance, and without waiting for everyone to ask, he smiled slightly and explained loudly: "I know that everyone must think that this thing is nothing special. But don't underestimate it. Don't look at it as big and bulky, but it can bring everyone the most needed thing, water.
I'm sure some of you have been to our town before? It's called a machine, and it has a special name, it's called a well digger. The power is wind and coal, as long as there is wind one day, or the raw materials left over from digging coal are added to it, and it is ignited, it can be operated and a well can be dug for everyone. ”
Vasno explained in detail, and during the explanation, he kept a smile on his face and his eyes were full of confidence. Such a remote and poor small village, as long as you finish the role of this machine, it can cause a huge response.
But what he didn't expect was that almost as soon as he finished speaking, he heard the undisguised ridicule of the villagers.
"Dig a well? Vasno, this machine is useless to us. The water in our village was brought back by McClair from deep in the mountains. I don't need this machine of yours at all. ”
"Yes. This machine is so bulky, it must be complicated to operate. Our village is not very short of water and does not need it. ”
"Vasno, do you have any other good things? We really don't need this machine. If you have one, show it to us. ”
"That's right. Let's change things, we don't have much interest in this machine. ”...,
As soon as these words came out, Vasno was stunned for a moment, and the reaction of the villagers was far beyond his expectations, which surprised him.
The next moment, a whole row of cold sweat immediately oozed from Vasno's forehead, and his expression instantly became extremely embarrassed, but after thinking about it, it was only embarrassing for a moment, the corners of his mouth were raised, and his smile was restored, and he nodded to the villagers under the stands, and said proudly: "Please be quiet for a while!"
Don't be so hasty to refuse me. Don't be impatient, don't be impatient. I still haven't finished speaking, if you really don't like my machine, then when I'm done, it's not too late to refuse, right?"
As soon as these words came out, the stands were indeed quiet for a while, but the expressions of the villagers did not change, and they were still particularly repulsed by Vasno's machine.
Seeing this, Vasno was not angry, but sneered slightly, and then showed a kind smile again, coughed lightly, and said slowly: "Everyone is right just now. I know that you are not short of water. But I wonder if you've ever thought about it from a different perspective? If McCle encounters an accident, what will happen to everyone's water problem?"
At this point, Vasno deliberately paused and did not continue, but quietly observed the villagers in the audience, until he saw that many villagers in the audience had embarrassed expressions on their faces, and then he spoke again and said proudly: "I think everyone should have thought about it just now, right? I specially recommend this machine to everyone, just for this."
Of course, I'm not cursing McClair, I'm just not afraid of 10,000, just in case. Since it is a deep mountain, the road must be very difficult.
If Myclair accidentally falls down from the mountains, won't everyone's water supply become a problem? So, my machine was born for this. If everyone can buy one, and everyone has one, then if something happens to McClair, won't everyone have to worry and worry?"
As soon as these words came out, the attitudes of the villagers who were still repulsive to the well digging machine in the audience really changed. At the same time, the faces of the villagers were no longer bored, but their eyes became hotter than ever. Obviously, they all agreed with Vasno.
Sure enough, the next moment, the audience immediately set off a craze for buying well digging machines in an instant. "I'm going to buy it, I'm going to buy it, I'm going to buy it!" and so on, and the villagers all squeezed their heads to the stands, and for a while, the crowd was surging and the atmosphere was enthusiastic.
That night, just one day, Vasno sold out all the well digging rigs he had brought from the small northern town, and there was not even one left. Looking at the room with the magical spring water that the villagers used to exchange with the well digger, buckets after buckets were piled up in front of him, and Vasno's face immediately flashed a smug smile.
At the same time, he couldn't help but sneer and thought to himself: So much magical water. If you bring it back to the city, you will definitely be able to sell it for a good price. Those well digging machines were old goods that were about to break down, and I didn't expect them to be sold out in a day. Meteor Village, as rumored, are all ignorant idiots. Haha......ha
Thinking about it, after reaching the end, Vasno couldn't help but laugh proudly. However, at this moment, a knock on the door suddenly came from outside the door, and Vasno hurriedly restrained his smile and asked softly, "Who?"
"It's me. A young man's voice came from outside the door.
Hearing this, Vasno nodded slightly, "Come in." ”
When the man heard this, he immediately pushed the door open and entered.
However, after he came in, he did not immediately look at Vasno, but glanced at the mountains of magical spring water piled up in the corner of the room, and the corners of his mouth twitched, and there was also a slight hint of pride, and then he whispered: "Boss, you are really smart. I went to exchange that kind of rag for such precious spring water. Now, when we go back, we will definitely be rich. ”...,
Hearing this, the smug look on Vasno's face suddenly became thicker, but he didn't nod in agreement with the other party's meaning, but snorted in a low voice, and said in the same slight voice: "What is this." This water is magical, and when I first saw it in the small town, I thought it was incredible, and the price must be very high. But compared to the gems here, it's far from perfect. ”
"Boss, you mean the mine where McClair works?"
"Yes. If we can buy that mine, then we're real...... Alas...... Unfortunately, the mine has always been in McClair's hands. His reputation in the village is too high...... "Vasno wanted to continue, but he turned his head to look at his subordinates, but immediately came back to his senses, changed the topic, and asked seriously: "By the way, it's so late, what are you looking for me for?"
"Oh. Someone meets you. ”
"Who?"
"A woman. ”
"Woman, woman here?"
"Yes. ”
"Nope. I hate women! ”
"Boss, I've got it. Driven away once, she came again, she came three days ago. ”
"Three days?"
"Yes. She came every day for the past three days, and she came once when I drove away. ”
"Then why does she want to see me? Have you asked?"
"Asked. She seems to have heard from one of us three days ago that the boss was rich. I asked some other villagers here, and they said that this woman likes to gamble, but she owes a lot of debt like her husband, so she came here to ask you to borrow money. ”
"Borrow money, blow her away! Damn, don't you know that I hate it when people talk about borrowing money?"
Zhilu said. Top dog. ”
"Zhilu Dao, you still said that you still want to bring her here, this kind of woman, you can deal with it yourself, don't come to ask me in the future. ”
"Boss, there's one more thing I haven't said. ”
"What's the matter?"
"I inquired again, and the woman was said to have her husband dead. And his husband did not die of natural causes, he was killed. ”
"What does this have to do with me?"
"Yes, it doesn't matter. But it has something to do with one person. The man who killed her husband was McClair. The reason is not too clear, but I heard from the villagers that he was suddenly killed by McClair in front of all the villagers that day. The villagers deduced that he had deliberately tripped over McClair's daughter, which is why he was killed. ”
"Something to do with McClair?" Hearing this, Vasno's face suddenly flashed a faint hint of coldness, and then, after he secretly sneered, he was no longer tired of his subordinates being disturbed in the middle of the night, but gently patted his subordinates' shoulders and smiled with satisfaction: "You did a good job." Bring that woman in. ”
"Yes. ”
