Chapter 241: The Power of Knowledge
After the banquet.
It's a mess.
Liu Xing, who sent the guests away, picked up a broom and cleaned up the sanitation on the threshing floor.
Seeing this, several children, including melon seeds, Xiao Budian, Xiaodoudou, Lan Lan, and Zhao Jing, ran over to help.
Although they were busy and sweaty, each of them was very happy.
Because each of them has a bag full of all kinds of snacks.
In the kitchen, Zhou Qiuxiang brought a cup of herbal tea to Liu Xing's face, "Don't be busy, just let cumin do these tasks, you can rest first." ”
Liu Xing drank a lot of wine with the guests before.
At that time, she looked at the face of the guest and didn't say much.
But now that the banquet is over, it is better to let Liu Xing rest more, otherwise it will not be good to be tired.
"I'm fine. Liu Xing, who was sweeping the floor, straightened his waist: "Mom, you don't have to worry about me, let's go and accompany my grandmother and uncle's family!"
The other guests left, but the grandmother, the eldest uncle's family, and the second uncle's family couldn't leave.
It's not that they can't leave, but Zhoujia Village is far away from Saltpeter Village, and they have to stay overnight.
It would not be safe to walk back at night.
"Your dad is with them! Playing cards and bragging. Zhou Qiuxiang smiled when she heard this, and seeing that there were no other strangers around, she couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "You let Director Tian arrest General Uncle, don't you really plan to reform him, right?"
The reason why he asked like this was Zhi'er Mo Ruomu, he was sure that Liu Xing, this kid, was not well-intentioned.
Although it will not cause Zhou Xiaojun to go to prison, but the previous incident was so big, this pain is definitely indispensable.
"Mom, do you think Director Tian will take care of this in our family?" Liu Xing saw that he couldn't hide it, so he told the truth immediately: "Director Tian asked the police officers around him to take away the little uncle, and it is estimated that he will talk to him when he goes to the office, and then he will be sent back to Zhoujia Village." ”
"He also knew what I meant, that is, you can't let such people spoil the atmosphere of the banquet. Liu Xing sighed lightly: "As for transforming him, do you think that such a person who can't support the wall with mud can still be transformed?"
Seeing Liu Xing say this, Zhou Qiuxiang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief: "Actually, your brother-in-law's brain almost burned out when he was eight years old, although he got better later, but there are still sequelae, so sometimes you should understand more." ”
This burnout must refer to a condition within a high fever.
Liu Xing never knew this inside story.
He was slightly taken aback at first, and then shook his head: "I'll just say that my uncle's IQ is very problematic, it turns out that there is such an inside story in it!"
"Okay, let's not talk about that. Zhou Qiuxiang saw Liu Deshun, who was in charge of the kitchen, coming over, and hurriedly smiled and chatted about other topics: "You brought so many little guys over today, where are you going to let them sleep this night?"
There are many guests at home, and the beds are not enough.
If this snubbs them, I'm afraid that they will listen to gossip again when they go back tomorrow.
"You don't have to worry about this, I'll arrange it. Liu Xing didn't know the meaning of his mother's words, so he even expressed his position at the moment.
Because in his opinion, children are the best to serve.
Definitely not like an adult, who will get angry if he doesn't entertain well.
"That's good. Zhou Qiuxiang breathed a sigh of relief.
It's not that she's verbose, but that people are in contact, and it's often because of these little things that there are contradictions.
"Liu Xing," Liu Deshun, who approached, spoke with a smile at this time: "I have helped clean up all the things in the kitchen, do you see any other arrangements? If not, I will go home first, after all, you also know that I have to go to work at Hengshui Distillery tomorrow." ”
"It's gone, it's gone. Hearing this, Liu Xing hurriedly ran into the hall, and after a while, he came out, with three more good cigarettes in his hand, and handed them to Liu Deshun as soon as possible: "Uncle, I have worked hard for you today, you can take this cigarette and help distribute it to those helpers." ”
"I've had several cigarettes before. Liu Deshun was a little embarrassed.
"It's okay, you deserve this. After Liu Xing waited for Liu Deshun to put away the cigarettes, he took out another two hundred yuan and handed it over: "This is everyone's hard work, don't say anything, just accept it." ”
"You kid. Liu Deshun knew Liu Xing's temper, so he had to accept it after smiling.
Zhou Qiuxiang looked at it with a light smile on the side and didn't say anything.
Because of Liu Xing's generosity, that is her face.
"By the way, are you still used to working in Hengshui Distillery recently?" Liu Xing saw that the sun had not yet set, and asked casually.
"Habit, I'm okay with your fifth uncle, Director Li takes good care of us!" Liu Deshun said as he spoke, and his expression suddenly became solemn: "But I heard a very bad news, because of the previous incident with Director Zhang, Director Li may be demoted and retained, and it is said that the punishment has come down." ”
This Director Li undoubtedly refers to Li Dawei.
When Liu Xing heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "This is a matter decided by the internal leaders of Hengshui Distillery, so don't worry about it, if Lao Li can be demoted casually, then it will not be Lao Li." ”
"No, it might be true this time. Liu Deshun cautiously glanced around, and said mysteriously: "Do you know why Liu Wanqiu didn't come to the banquet today? I saw her taking her son to work at Hengshui Distillery the morning before yesterday, and looking at the work clothes, it was still the management!"
"Huh?" Liu Xing froze.
And it is said that Liu Changsheng is also expected to be released, because the new director of the Zhong factory seems to be Liu Changsheng's classmate, the one who has a lot of backers in the city. Liu Deshun whispered another inside story.
Seeing that Liu Xing didn't believe it, Liu Deshun said: "Child, don't think of Hengshui leaders as well, it is said that before Secretary Yan, Director Li, and Director Zeng came to you for a banquet again, they had a special meeting to open a liquor direct wholesale store in the city, and the person in charge is very likely to be Liu Wanqiu, but the time is very tight, and it has not yet been implemented." ”
"Is this news reliable?" Zhou Qiuxiang couldn't help but ask.
If it is reliable, then the leaders of Hengshui Distillery are too inhuman.
This is a proper unloading and killing donkey, and he is putting on small shoes for Liu Xing!
"Even if it's reliable, it's not afraid. Liu Xing was not worried at all, but smiled.
Because if everyone can open a liquor direct wholesale store, wouldn't it be a waste of time for him to operate in the market for so long?
Besides, the leadership of Hengshui Distillery changes every day.
Sometimes it is not Secretary Yan, Li Dawei, and Zeng Dezhi who can have the final say.
In other words, Liu Deshun's superficial news seems to be very unfavorable to him, and it seems to be very passive to Li Dawei.
But in fact, if this is not the case, I am afraid that only they know.
According to him, according to the temperament of Li Dawei, an old fox.
I'm afraid that I'm going to make a drastic move to change the blood of Hengshui Distillery.
Otherwise, according to his understanding of Li Dawei, I am afraid that he will not release these news at all, let alone let Liu Deshun, a little minion, know.
And now let Liu Deshun tell him with this mouth, it is obvious that he is reminding him.
Recently, the Hengshui Distillery has not been peaceful.
It's better to run less to Hengshui Winery.
Thinking of this, Liu Xing smiled: "Uncle, you can tell me about this alone, but don't tell anyone else!"
"Got it. Liu Deshun saw that his daughter-in-law was calling him back, so he hurriedly said to Liu Xing, and then turned around and ran away.
Liu Xingmu sent Liu Deshun away, bent down and cleaned up again.
Zhou Qiuxiang saw the mess in the place, and hurriedly took a broom to help.
Because it was summer, I was soaked in a short time.
Liu Xing was the same, he originally wanted to blurt out and ask the melon seeds to go to the commissary to buy a few popsicles to relieve the heat, but the next second he realized that he almost said the wrong thing.
Because in the saltpeter village of '82, there was no commissary at all.
As for the popsicles, he remembered that they seemed to have appeared at the market in the old housing village in '85 or '88.
It's HY City, and it has to be in a large freezer.
And now in '82, if you want to eat popsicles, it's just a fool's dream.
This made Liu Xing a little crying and laughing.
Only then did he feel how backward this era was, and how backward the saltpeter village was.
Seeing that the children of Melon Seeds, Xiao Budian, Lan Lan, Zhao Jing, and Xiao Doudou did not have a single dry yarn on their bodies, and they were sweating one by one, he suddenly put down the broom in his hand, walked under the eaves and picked up a woven bag, and then pushed the bicycle out of the door.
"Where are you going, Xing Yanzi?" Zhou Qiuxiang couldn't help but ask.
"Go find something and be right back. Liu Xing replied, and soon wanted to disappear on the village road.
"This kid ......" Zhou Qiuxiang shook her head, and didn't bother to care, but bent down and continued to clean up.
......
Half an hour later, Liu Xing returned.
The rear rack of the bike has more than half a bag of bulging stuff.
Melon seeds and small ones thought they were eating, and hurriedly greeted them.
After finding out that it was a pile of broken stones, he quickly pouted and ran away.
Liu Xing looked at it and smiled: "What are the two little girls running, hurry up and come over to help, and wait for you to make something delicious to eat." ”
As soon as these words came out, not only melon seeds and Xiao Budian ran back, but even Xiao Doudou, Zhao Jing, and Lan Lan also ran over.
Zhou Qiuxiang also came over, she glanced at the stone in the woven bag, and couldn't help but shake her head: "What can you do with this saltpeter, this broken stone saltpeter village is all over the mountains, if you can, there will be no starvation in the saltpeter village." ”
"Mom, do we want to make a bet, what if I make something delicious?" Liu Xing teased.
"I'll give you a hundred dollars if you don't make it. Zhou Qiuxiang said with a smile.
It's all her own money anyway, so she doesn't care at all.
"Okay, you can get the money ready!" Liu Xing took the saltpeter from the woven bag on the back rack of the bicycle and walked to the kitchen.
"Let's go, get there right. Melon Seed cheered and followed.
"Auntie, do you know what to do?" Xiao Bu followed curiously.
"I don't know. Melon Seed shook her head.
My brother had never done it for her before.
When Xiao Budian heard this, he hurriedly took Xiao Doudou, Zhao Jing, and Lan Lan into the kitchen first.
......
The kitchen door was closed by Liu Xing.
This made Zhou Qiuxiang, who originally wanted to join in the fun, a little helpless.
After resting for a while on the barn, I had to continue to clean up.
Liu Ye walked out with Liu Ziran and helped to clean up the tables and chairs.
After all, most of these tables and chairs are rented, and if they are not cleaned when they are transported away, they will be disliked by the owner.
Of course, it was definitely not the two of them who volunteered to help, but Liu Dazhao said a few words to the two of them, and they had to come out.
However, the two of them soon stopped what they were doing, not too hot, but attracted by the movement in the kitchen.
"Auntie, auntie, look, it's amazing!"
"Well, well, it really occurred that saltpeter still has such a use. ”
"Wow, that's cool! Brother, brother...... Is it so cool where we sleep tonight?"
"There must be, this is amazing, Brother Liu Xing, why is this happening!"
"Yes! Tell us about it. ”
"After the nest went back, I also played with saltpeter like this, and I was no longer afraid of the heat that night. ”
"Can you little guys stop a little, shut up for me, this saltpeter ice method, if you can understand it, can you still stand here and talk to me?"
"Brother, brother, just talk to the nest!"
"That's it, uncle, don't be stingy! When I learn, I won't be afraid of the heat. ”
"I also want to cool off my grandfather, he will be very uncomfortable in the summer!"
"My mom too, if she learns that she won't be able to sleep at night. ”
"My grandfather is not afraid of heat at all, but he sometimes stinks when he treats patients...... Then grandpa will never stink again. ”
......
Loud, giggling voices came from the kitchen.
It didn't stop for half an hour.
This made Liu Ye and Liu Ziran very curious, and the two of them wanted to run into the kitchen to take a look at the situation, but they were stopped by Zhou Qiuxiang: "Don't you go to Liu Xing, don't you see him alone with so many children, isn't it annoying enough?"
"Mom, can you tell me what saltpeter ice is?" asked Liu Ye curiously.
Liu Cumin was also a little curious.
"How do I know this, I haven't read as many books as you!" Zhou Qiuxiang saw that it was getting dark, and immediately urged: "Don't look at it, hurry up and clean up the tables, chairs and benches, and wait for the tractor to come, you can't let the driver wait." ”
"Okay!" Liu Ye had no choice but to continue to work with Liu Ziran.
Half an hour later.
Suddenly, there was a cheer from the kitchen: "Oh my God, it's done, it's done, I've seen the popsicle, brother, brother...... Can you eat this? Give me a taste, quick!
"Uncle, uncle, I want it too. "It's a small voice.
"You were argued, my brother made a lot of popsicles, there are about a dozen of them, and when they are ready, they will be enough for you to eat. Lan Lan was the oldest, and when she saw the commotion, she hurriedly maintained order.
"I don't care, I just want popsicles. "The melon seeds are actually coquettish in the kitchen.
This made Liu Ye and Liu Cumin a little unbearable.
Because at home, if melon seeds dare to be coquettish to them, they will definitely be beaten badly.
But Liu Xing is different, he is used to melon seeds every time.
If it goes on like this, that's okay.
But now that's not what they care about.
It's what they call popsicles.
Liu Cumin knows this word.
Because of the classmates in the eighth middle school, many of them have eaten.
And I also described the taste to him, but unfortunately in HY City, it seems that I haven't seen it sold yet.
Seeing that there was no sound in the kitchen, the two siblings hurriedly ran to the kitchen after glancing at each other.
However, there was no runway kitchen door, but the door was open.
Then I saw Liu Xing walking out with a basin of ice, and there were several cups in the ice.
The inside of the cup is also ice, but there are chopsticks stuck in it.
And melon seeds, Xiao Budian, Lan Lan, Xiao Doudou, and Zhao Jing are children, this is a person holding a round popsicle and adding it, the happy expression, and the intoxicated appearance made Liu Ye and Liu Cumin stunned.
"Second sister, this popsicle is so good, if you don't believe it, you can try it. The melon seeds sucked the popsicle, and the big eyes were full of satisfaction.
"Yes, second aunt, it tastes very good!" Xiao Budian said.
Seeing Liu Ye staring at the popsicle in her hand and drooling, she hurriedly ran away with Xiao Doudou, Zhao Jing, and Lan Lan.
After all, this popsicle was given to them by Liu Xing, so Liu Ye couldn't be allowed to snatch it.
The melon seeds also sensed that something was wrong, and after making a grimace at Liu Ye, they hurriedly ran away.
"Brother, do you have my share of this popsicle?" Liu Ye pointed to the few remaining popsicles in the basin.
"Absolutely. Liu Cumin didn't care so much, he stepped forward and picked up one and ran.
Liu Ye did not do this time, but looked at Liu Xing with a blank look.
"Don't look at it! We all have a share, but there may not be any relatives inside, because the kitchen is only so big, and it can't make so many popsicles. Liu Xing smiled and picked up a popsicle and handed it to Liu Ye, seeing Zhou Qiuxiang looking at it with a light smile on the side, he walked over.
"Mom, eat popsicles. Liu Xing handed the basin to Zhou Qiuxiang.
There were only two of them, apparently one for each person.
Zhou Qiuxiang picked up one of them and tasted it shallowly, and her eyes lit up in an instant: "You put mung beans and rock candy?"
"yes, otherwise what's the taste of just eating ice? Liu Xinglian nodded: "Actually, the tools are too simple, if there is a mold for making popsicles, it is not a problem to make dozens of popsicles at one time." ”
"Brother, who did you learn this from?" Liu Ye on the side couldn't help but ask.
"It's in the book, do you need to learn from anyone?" Liu Xing said perfunctorily after a moment's stunned.
"It's in the book?" Liu Ye was stunned.
"Absolutely. Liu Xing said affirmatively.
"You weren't paying attention to your studies. Zhou Qiuxiang glanced at Liu Ye: "If you read it, how can you not even know the knowledge of saltpeter ice." ”
"No, Mom......" Liu Ye still wanted to explain, but Zhou Qiuxiang went into the kitchen to check how Liu Xing used saltpeter to make ice.
After a while, he came out, with frustration on his face, and after handing Liu Xing a hundred yuan, he said, "Xing Yanzi, I am willing to gamble and lose, but can you tell me how this saltpeter ice making is done?"
"I want to learn too. Liu Ye happily raised his right hand.
"Then you come with me. Liu Xing smiled and walked into the kitchen after taking it away.
......
I slept until 10 a.m.
When I woke up, Zhou Xiaoniu's family and Gongsun Jiao were already gone.
This made Liu Xing a little embarrassed, but he didn't think much about it, but went into the kitchen to wash.
In the kitchen, Liu Ye was studying saltpeter ice making with Liu Ziran, but after studying for more than two hours, he still had no clue.
Liu Xing smiled at this scene, and didn't bother with it, after all, saltpeter ice making looks simple, but there are still some key points that must be mastered.
It's like making matches, and many people can understand how they are made at a glance.
But give you a dollar, can you make it?
Even if it's a hundred, I'm afraid it won't work.
It's not a matter of IQ, it's a matter of low eyesight.
However, Liu Ye and Liu Ziran have a heart of specialization, which is a good thing, not a bad thing.
Seeing that there were still some wild vegetables in the woven bag in the kitchen, I picked it up and chopped it under the eaves.
When he was done, he mixed it with rice bran, lifted it in a bucket, and walked towards the cattle pen.
He was so busy forgetting to feed the black calf last night, and he can't forget it today.
Otherwise, the black calf will go hungry.
To his surprise, at the door of the bullpen, Liu Dazhao was already feeding the black calves, which were a large number of sweet potato vines.
Seeing Liu Xing coming, he smiled and greeted him: "Are you going to the market today?"
"If you don't go, you can't do it!" Liu Xing replied.
If you don't go, the shoe store and the liquor direct wholesale store will be fine, but there are more than 1,000 live pigs in the six greenhouses, and I am afraid that there will be chaos.
Because without him, surely no one will feed it.
After all, there are more than 1,000 pigs, and the cost of that meal is dozens of dollars.
This is still for the purpose of being full, if you eat well, I am afraid that one meal will cost hundreds.
So we had to rush to the market and solve the problem of pig food.
This is not a joke, because the sake lees shipped from Hengshui Distillery last time are only afraid that they will be eaten long ago, and the most important thing is that this sake lees cannot be eaten more, and must be mixed with other foods, such as wild vegetables, rice bran, etc., otherwise after ten days and half a month, these pigs will definitely be finished.
When Liu Dazhao heard this, he didn't bother with it, but asked: "Now that the heavy rain has stopped, and our family has some money in hand, should we buy bricks and other building materials to build a red brick house?"
"Yes, you can go to Chaoyang Brick Factory to buy red bricks, I believe that Brother Xie will give you a discount. Liu Xing nodded approvingly: "But this time you can't be sloppy in building a red brick house." ”
"How do you say that?" Liu Dazhao was confused.
It's impossible to build a red brick house for your own family!
Liu Xingdao: "Then let me ask you, how are you going to build this red brick house?"
"It's built in the style of the original adobe house!" Liu Dazhao blurted out, without thinking much about it.
"Huh...... Then you might as well not build it. Liu Xing couldn't help but laugh.
The style of the adobe house, that is the architectural style of the Republic of China era, if it is built, I am afraid that I will be laughed off.
"Then what do you mean, how should I build it?" asked Liu Dazhao with his hands outstretched.
"I'll give you the drawings in a few days, you go buy building materials first!" Liu Xing thought for a while: "And when approving the homestead, it takes a little more approval, there should be no problem with so many people in our family, right?"
"I told Township Chief Xie yesterday at the banquet, and he said that there is no need to go through the formalities to approve the homestead now, as long as you have money, you can just build it. "*** replied.
This is the truth, Liu Xing knows a little bit of the inside story.
And he also knows that after two years, that is, eighty-four years, I am afraid that it will not be so simple to approve the homestead.
The reason for this is that there are more people building red brick houses, and many farmers have built red brick houses in farmland without law.
This was naturally not allowed in the agrarian era of the 80s.
Therefore, the higher-level leaders issued instructions that the homestead for the construction of red brick houses in rural areas must be approved.
Otherwise, it will be dealt with as an illegal construction.
In this way, the construction of red brick houses is the norm, but there is also a problem.
That is the position of managing the homestead, which has become one of the fattest errands.
If many villagers want to approve a homestead, they have to smoke and drink well.
Otherwise, don't even think about it.
This is not a joke or a sarcasm of anyone.
Because when his family built a red brick house before his rebirth, it seemed to be 88 or 90 years, Liu Xing can't remember it clearly, anyway, it was just a sentence, he was stuck when he applied for a homestead.
In the end, Liu Dazhao had no choice, so he took Zhou Qiuxiang to insert seedlings for a week for the township cadres who managed the approval of the homestead, and finally went through the formalities.
Thinking of this, Liu Xingna shook his head, and seeing that Liu Dazhao was still waiting for his reply, he hurriedly came back to his senses: "Since you don't need to go through the formalities to approve the homestead, then you can build a few more red brick houses." ”
"You're talking about ease, money!" Liu Dazhao said.
"You don't have enough on hand, I'll give it. Liu Xing came to the side of the bullpen with the bucket, and then handed it to the black calf: "I think so, but you don't need to approve the base, then build three red brick houses, one for you and your mother, one for me, and one for Liu Ye." ”
"As for the melon seeds and the second sister, if they want to marry in the future, it doesn't matter. After a pause, Liu Xing added.
"Liu Ye is still so young, what kind of red brick house to build for him!" Liu Dazhao disagreed: "Besides, this kid is unreliable at first glance, why should we arrange it for him." ”
"It's another thing if it's unreliable, if the approval of homesteads is very strict, or if the building materials have risen, don't regret it. Liu Xing couldn't help but remind.
In the early eighties, prices were the lowest.
And then it's skyrocketing every year at a geometric rate.
really waited until Liu Ye grew up and was building a red brick house.
That's not a question of money, I'm afraid that a lot of problems will follow.
He had encountered it before he was reborn, so he didn't want Liu Ye to repeat the mistakes of the past.
Because no matter what, Liu Ye is his own brother, and it is impossible for him to ignore some important things.
When Liu Dazhao saw Liu Xing say this, he had to nod in agreement: "Okay then! I'll do as you say, I know that your kid won't do foolish things now, but he's going to rob him recently, so I can't ask anyone to help me do things!"
"Then let's go and invite someone after the double robbery!"
"Yes. Liu Dazhao nodded in agreement.
"As for the money, I'll wait until after the double robbery, I'll give you 10,000 yuan first, it's not enough. Liu Xing said.
"You kid, I really can't stand this breath. Liu Dazhao shook his head when he heard this, and after reaching out and patting Liu Xing's shoulder, he left directly.
The reason why I say this is that I was hit.
Because he contracted Shiniu Mountain to work tirelessly for more than two months, he finally earned a few thousand yuan.
And Liu Xing made a move of 10,000, isn't this taking money as money?
......
Wait for the black calf to finish eating the rice bran and wild vegetables in the bucket.
Liu Xing took it out and came to the door of the kitchen: "Melon seeds, don't you order it...... Don't hide, you guys, you have to go back to the market. ”
"Brother, I didn't hide, I wanted just popsicles. Melon seeds ran out of the kitchen with a look of anticipation.
"Yes, yes, my uncle is making popsicles! Melon Seed walked out and said.
Lan Lan, Xiao Doudou, and Zhao Jing also poked their heads out of the kitchen door, and they all showed expressions of not wanting to leave.
Clearly, they were impressed by the deliciousness of the popsicles.
Liu Xing shook his head when he saw this scene: "Liu Ye's kid can make any popsicles, his methods are not right, if you don't want to go, then wait! Don't blame me for not reminding you." ”
After saying this, he went into the hall and took out a pair of bamboo baskets, tied them to the back of the black calf, and began to put on his shoes.
Guazi thought that Liu Xing was angry, so he hurriedly ran over and hugged Liu Xing's right leg: "Brother, can't Wo go to the market with you? ”
"Okay. Liu Xing replied helplessly.
It's all to blame for his cheap hands, otherwise there are so many things about melon seeds.
Of course, he also knew that if the melon seeds were unwilling to return to the market, he was afraid that Xiao Budian, Zhao Jing, Xiao Doudou, and Lan Lan would not want to leave, so he had to agree first.
Of course, making popsicles is not difficult for him.
And to be honest, he also likes to eat it, after all, a mung bean popsicle on this hot day is very cool.
Seeing that Liu Xing agreed, Guazi hurriedly cheered, and after telling the good news to Xiao Budian, Zhao Jing, Xiao Doudou, and Lan Lan in the kitchen, he hurriedly helped to load the shoes.
Liu Xing saw that it was almost over, so he didn't continue.
After all, there are a lot of people carrying the black calves this time, and they can't add more weight.
Seeing that there was nothing to explain, he immediately stretched out his hand and hugged the melon seeds, Xiao Budian, Zhao Jing, Lan Lan, and Xiaodoudou on the back of the cow, and then shouted to the side house: "Dad, Mom, I'm going to the market." ”
"Wait, wait!" Zhou Qiuxiang ran out of the side house, carrying several cigarettes in her hand: "You take these to the market to give the vendors who gave them money, although this person didn't come, we can't be people." ”
"Mom, you can rest assured, I went to the market, and I will invite them to dinner, as for tobacco and alcohol, it must be indispensable. After saying this, Liu Xing took the black calf and went on the road.
"This kid ......" Zhou Qiuxiang smiled, turned around and went back to the side room with a cigarette to busy with him.
......
When I came to the bazaar.
It was already past twelve o'clock.
Just in time for Liu Dongju's lunch.
Liu Xing was not polite, and after taking the children to eat, he sent everything back.
After all, he really didn't have time to spend with these naughty ghosts.
As for the popsicles that I promised to melon seeds, I naturally had to wait until I had time to get them.
At the door of the shoe store, Zhou Ziqiang and Wang Haiying were already saying goodbye to Zhou Min and Zhou Shan with their shotguns and baggage.
Zhao Peony was also on the side, he was a little unbearable when he saw this scene, seeing that Zhou Shan, a stunned man, couldn't speak, he blurted out at the moment: "Dad, Mom, when you are done robbing you are coming to the market, I will take you to have a good shopping when the time comes." ”
As soon as these words came out, Zhou Shan was stunned.
But Wang Haiying and Zhou Ziqiang were ecstatic and agreed.
Among them, Wang Haiying's tears of joy came out: "I like your mother's voice very much, and I will call it like this in the future, and I, in this life, also recognize you as a daughter-in-law." ”
"Hmm," Zhao Peony lowered her head shyly.
"Hahaha......" Zhou Ziqiang raised his head and laughed, and after reaching out and patting Zhou Shan's shoulder, he turned around and limped away with Wang Haiying.
This scene made Liu Xing, who came back, see it, and he chased after him after him in a daze: "Second uncle, you wait a minute." ”
"What's wrong?" Zhou Ziqiang turned his head repeatedly.
Wang Haiying was also a little curious.
"Since you're here, why don't you take a look at your foot injury?" Liu Xing proposed.
Doctor Jiang is in the bazaar, and this is a good opportunity.
If you miss it, you won't know when it will be next time.
As soon as these words came out, Zhou Ziqiang was stunned, and after coming back to his senses, he said, "Can he still cure my leg?"
The battle with the wild boar almost killed him.
To be alive is already a gift from heaven to him.
"Can it be cured, can't you just go and see?" Liu Xing pulled Zhou Ziqiang and walked towards the clinic on the side.
Seeing this, Wang Haiying hurriedly followed behind happily.
Only then did she know that she had not hurt Liu Xing's child in vain before.
This is all understood, and the gratitude is reciprocated.
Zhou Shan, Zhou Min, and Zhao Peony at the door of the shoe store saw this scene, and after glancing at each other, they hurriedly followed behind.
......
Inside the clinic.
Overcrowded.
Liu Xing didn't bother with it.
Instead, he took Zhou Ziqiang and went straight to the side house where Doctor Jiang was.
Seeing that Doctor Jiang was taking the pulse of an old woman, he stood aside and waited quietly.
Wang Haiying, Zhou Shan, Zhou Min, and Zhou Peony, who followed in, also waited silently.
After a while, Divine Doctor Jiang looked up at Liu Xing, with a faint smile in his eyes: "What is the matter with you! ”
"My second uncle's leg is lame, you can see if you can be cured. When Liu Xing heard this, he hurriedly said what he meant.
"Good!"
"Come and sit down. Doctor Jiang knew Zhou Ziqiang, and beckoned with a smile.
"Hey!" Zhou Ziqiang, who was a little nervous, hurriedly sat opposite Doctor Jiang, and lifted his trouser legs for the first time.
Divine Doctor Jiang picked it up and carefully pinched it twice: "Your injury was serious enough at that time! It is really a miracle that you can recover to this extent." ”
Dr. Li from Zhoujia Village said the same. Zhou Ziqiang echoed.
"Has your leg been limping since you could walk?" Doctor Jiang put down Zhou Ziqiang's leg and then stroked his beard and asked.
"Well, I've gotten used to it all these years. Zhou Ziqiang replied.
But having said that, he has mixed feelings in his heart.
Because since he was lame, everyone in Zhoujia Village called him Zhou lame, and no one was calling his name.
"You're not in a good habit. Doctor Jiang turned his head to look at Liu Xing: "Come here, I'll whisper a few words to you." ”
"Oh. Liu Xing hurriedly did so.
Seeing this, the other people in the house hurriedly walked out.
Even Zhou Ziqiang is no exception.
After Doctor Jiang and the others left, he asked Qinglian to see that the door was closed, and then said seriously: "I checked the old injury for you just now, and found that it did not affect his walking at all, and his muscles, bones, skin and flesh were the same as normal people. ”
"Then why are you limping?" Liu Xing was confused.
If you were like a normal person, how could this be!
"It's said that it's a habit, and your second uncle is used to limping. Doctor Jiang stroked his beard and smiled: "Isn't there such a sentence? The country is easy to change, and the nature is difficult to change, and it is difficult to change this habit." ”
"Huh?" Liu Xing was stunned when he heard this.
It's not that I don't believe Doctor Jiang's words, but I think it's too unbelievable!
"Don't believe it, if you want to cure your second uncle's lameness, then you must also injure his other foot, so that the lame leg is not lazy, only in this way can walking return to normal. Doctor Jiang sighed lightly: "But I can't do this thing, I will be scolded by pointing at my backbone if I do it, so I ......"
Speaking of which, Doctor Jiang didn't say anything.
How could Liu Xing not know the meaning of Doctor Jiang's words, he smiled bitterly.
Because of this 'bad guy', he can't do it well!
In case this injured the second uncle's leg and did not cure the lame leg, I am afraid that it will cause a big misunderstanding.
Just when he didn't know what to do, Doctor Jiang gave him a proposal: "Actually, your second uncle's limping is not a big problem at all, compared to other patients, he is much better, so let everything be fate! Maybe one day, he can get rid of this bad habit." ”
"Yes. Liu Xing nodded.
"That's nothing else, you go out!" Doctor Jiang waved his hand.
"Okay, but you have to take it easy, don't tire yourself. Liu Xing said with concern.
"Got it. Doctor Jiang said with impatience, but there was a faint smile on his face.
"Gone. Liu Xing turned around and walked out of the side room.
Entrance to the clinic.
Zhou Ziqiang's family is waiting.
Seeing Liu Xing coming out, he hurriedly surrounded him.
Among them, Wang Haiying said: "How is it, what did Doctor Jiang say?"
"Yes, can my father's leg injury be completely healed?" Zhou Min asked.
"Yes, but it's difficult, there are too many people in the clinic at the moment, and I'm still waiting for the busy double rush to say. Liu Xing said perfunctorily.
For this result, Zhou Ziqiang was not disappointed at all, he said with a smile: "What else can I treat for this leg, anyway, I can't walk." ”
"Let's go, daughter-in-law, let's go home. After saying this, Zhou Ziqiang took Wang Haiying and walked towards the street of the market.
Liu Xing was stunned and chased after him: "Second uncle, wait a minute." ”
"What else do you have to do? Zhou Ziqiang was a little impatient.
Because if you don't leave, you won't be able to take a ride back to Liao Village later.
If you can't get a ride, you have to walk to Zhoujia Village, which is tiring enough.
"I want to say that in fact, your leg injury has already healed, this is what Grandpa Jiang told me, and he also said that the reason why you walk with a limp is because you are used to it. After hesitating for a moment, Liu Xing still told the inside story.
Because he felt that there was no need to hide Zhou Ziqiang, after all, everyone was a relative.
"What does Doctor Jiang mean that my leg can't be cured?" Zhou Zhiqiang couldn't help but ask.
"No, he wants me to bruise your other good leg, so that you can be healed. Liu Xing replied with a smile.
"Stop. Zhou Ziqiang glanced at Liu Xing, turned around and left with Wang Haiying, who was holding back a smile.
But before he could go two meters away, his face changed.
There was a teenager riding a bicycle and crashing into him at a fast speed.
"Brake quickly!"
"Brakes!!"
Zhou Ziqiang was so frightened that he shouted.
Wang Haiying was also frightened.
Seeing that the bicycle was about to crash, he hurriedly pulled Zhou Ziqiang and jumped into the canal on the side.
There was a pop, but the bike dodged.
But the two of them have become soup chickens.
Fortunately, it's summer and it's not cold in the canal.
After Zhou Ziqiang climbed out of the canal, he pointed at the young man who was far away and was ready to scold.
But the next second, his brow furrowed, as for the reason, it was because both of his legs had been cut by the rubble in the canal, and he was bleeding at this time.
This walk actually hurts a lot.
Wang Haiying is fine.
He saw that Zhou Ziqiang's injury was not light, and he even said: "Don't say anything, hurry up and go to the clinic to bandage it." ”
"Hmm," Zhou Zhiqiang hurriedly took the lead and walked towards the clinic.
Liu Xing and Wang Haiying were originally going to help Zhou Ziqiang.
But when they looked at Zhou Ziqiang's walking posture, they were dumbfounded.
Zhou Shan, Zhou Min, and Zhao Peony at the door of the clinic also widened their eyes.
Because......
Zhou Ziqiang walked with a limp, although he was a little embarrassed, but he was no different from a normal person.
"This Jiang Divine Doctor is really a veritable Divine Doctor!" Wang Haiying couldn't help but exclaim after coming back to his senses.
"Hmm," Liu Xing nodded.
Hurriedly took Wang Haiying into the clinic.
......
After Zhou Ziqiang bandaged it briefly in the clinic, he took Wang Haiying away.
If you don't go, you can't go, because time doesn't allow it.
Of course, before leaving, I must thank Doctor Jiang.
Because no matter what, his lame leg problem was cured by Dr. Jiang.
Although I didn't use a penny of medicine, I didn't do it.
But he firmly believed that it was healed by Jiang Shen.
Liu Xing also thought so, and sent Zhou Ziqiang and Wang Haiying away.
I started to get busy with my own business.
He first went to the greenhouse to see more than a thousand pigs.
Seeing that everything was fine, I went to the department store again.
Because it was afternoon, there weren't many people who came to the department store to buy anything.
As for his liquor wholesale store, there is no one.
However, Nai Xinru and Wang Kunlun were not idle, but wiped the glass of the counter.
Even if it was bright enough, they didn't stop.
Liu Xing smiled when he saw this scene: "How is today's business?"
"Only one hundred and eighty cases have been sold, and there are fifty cases that are out of stock now!" Nai Xinru took out the account book, and his face was solemn: "I called Secretary Yan of Hengshui Distillery before and asked him to urge the warehouse to deliver goods, but his old man said that he had officially retired and would no longer care about the affairs of Hengshui Distillery." ”
"Huh, what do you mean by that?" Liu Xing was taken aback when he heard this.
At this time, Secretary Yan is retiring, which is very abnormal!
"I didn't know, but later I called Director Zeng again, and he said that he was preparing for other things and didn't have time. Nai Xinru handed the account book to Liu Xing: "I thought that Hengshui Distillery had been very busy recently, so I didn't think much about it, until an hour ago, Director Zhong called me, and I knew that the leadership of Hengshui Distillery had changed blood." ”
"Director Zhong?"
"What did he tell you?"
Liu Xing frowned slightly.
It seems that what Liu Deshun told him yesterday evening was not groundless.
Everything is true!
He said that in the future, he would wholesale and sell Hengshui Laobaigan to Hengshui Distillery, and the price could not be nine yuan according to the previous one, but the price must be raised to fifteen yuan, and the money must be given first. Nai Xin was afraid that Liu Xing would be angry, so he bit his lip and whispered the inside story.
"Huh...... Then we won't sell the wine of Hengshui Distillery. Liu Xing couldn't help but smile when he heard this, with a faint smile on his face.
The reason why this director Zhong dared to speak like this was undoubtedly preparing to build his own liquor direct wholesale store, which was not a random speculation, because Liu Deshun had already told him in advance last night.
This seems to be robbing his business, but it is actually a brain-dead act.
Because the liquor direct wholesale store can be so easy to open, it is not called a liquor direct wholesale store.
Now he finally knows why Secretary Yan and Zeng Dezhi avoided talking about it, saying that they were very busy or retired, and they definitely didn't want to be troubled by him.
Because it was said before, HY can only be his liquor direct wholesale store.
It's only been a few days, and I'm actually thinking about plagiarism.
Sure enough, it was unloading the mill and killing the donkey, and there was no good thing.
However, he believes that Secretary Yan and Zeng Dezhi have some unavoidable hardships.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have started his liquor direct wholesale store so quickly.
"That's right," Liu Xing, who thought of this, even looked at Nai Xinru: "What about Li Dawei! Is he retired now?"
"He didn't, he was still the director of Hengshui Distillery, but he had no right to ask us about the business of Hengshui Laobai, and he handed it over to Director Zhong, no, it was Deputy Director Zhong. "The heart is like a reply.
"That's it!" Liu Xing pondered for a moment: "Then don't care about him, you just do your own thing, after all, no matter what, we earned money in one day yesterday that other people can earn for several years." ”
"Yes. Naixin nodded.
That's the only thing to be happy about today.
"But if we don't cooperate with Hengshui Distillery, then there will be no liquor to sell!" After a pause, Nai Xinru expressed the worry in his heart.
"There will be, and there will be many. Liu Xing smiled mysteriously: "If it's okay in the afternoon, let's help go and see the pigs in the greenhouse, let's make money in the east and the west can't be bright, understand?"
"Yes. Nai Xin smiled.
"Then you're busy, I'll go find Nie Quan for something. After saying this, Liu Xing left with his hands behind his back.
"Is there something wrong with Nie Quan?" Nai scratched his head suspiciously.
In her opinion, Nie Quan is a carpenter, what is there to find.
"Could it be that there is any plan to make money?" Thinking of this, Nai Xinru hurriedly explained that Wang Kunlun on the side saw the counter, and she herself quietly followed.
