Chapter 40
The villagers were very surprised. After inquiring, they found out that they had relatives working in the railway bureau. They heard that Taoyuan Village was fun, and they were also very curious, so they came to take a look at the weekend.
Oh, this is the word of mouth. Immediately, the villagers greeted them enthusiastically and said: “Welcome, welcome to visit our Taoyuan Village, you are right here, there are many interesting places in our Taoyuan Village, you have to stay tonight. Can you stay overnight? You can stay at my house, which is cheap and clean, and only 80 cents a night, hehe.”
Another villager also squeezed in and said, “You can also stay at my house. My mother-in-law cooks very delicious food. Last time, the tourists praised us after they finished eating.”
When the other villagers saw it, they also wanted to bring tourists to their homes, and they wanted to make more money by entertaining tourists. They also wanted to make more money, and they were very active in trying to surround them. Suddenly, Feng Yimin’s voice came from behind: “What are you all doing around here? Don’t hurry up and unload the luggage for the guests and take them to the village to have a look. The guests will live in whatever house they like, and you are not allowed to rob them.”
The villagers made way, Feng Yimin walked up to the tourists and said, “I’m really sorry, the people in our village are more enthusiastic, didn’t they scare you? Welcome to our Taoyuan Village, several of them are from the provincial capital. come?”
These tourists are young couples with one or two little dolls by their side. The only man in his early thirties stood up and said, “You are the mayor of Yimin Village, right? I heard my old watch talk about you. My surname is Wang, Director Zhou is my relative, since you are all here, let’s go to your house.”
“Oh, so it’s Comrade Wang, hello, hello.” Feng Yimin heard that it was introduced by Director Zhou, and felt a little moved. Director Zhou was a man of righteousness, and he even helped him to publicize among his relatives. He laughed. He was very enthusiastic but said with some regret: “Comrade Wang, my house is not big, I can only spare two rooms at most, so many of you can’t live there, why don’t you go to other people’s houses to see? I dare to Make sure that the villagers’ homes are very clean, so don’t worry.”
The tourist surnamed Wang was also very cheerful. After discussing a few words with relatives and friends, he turned around and said, “Then I will trouble you, Yimin Village Chief, I will go to your house with my brother-in-law, and my friends will be troublesome. Folks, don’t worry, as long as we like it and the price is negotiable, let’s go.”
The villagers were very happy and helped them unload their luggage from the front of the bicycle. In fact, there was not much luggage, just one or two packages. These tourists should stay for a day or two. went into the village.
Although there is no preparation in advance, the alleys in the village are very clean. Since the tourists came last time, the villagers have realized the importance of hygiene. Think about it, if the village is dirty and messy, they will feel it when they see it. Annoyed, not to mention tourists. They pay attention to cleaning on weekdays, and even plant flowers in the front and back yards and even the walls. Now tourists enter the village and see those clean alleys and flowery farmhouses The yard, in their hearts, was a little satisfied at first, and when they went to the villagers’ house to see the room, they would be even more satisfied.
The rooms used by the villagers to entertain tourists are the largest and best rooms in the house, with the best orientation. On weekdays, the host’s family lives by themselves. When the tourists come, they remove the bedding and give them to them on the spot. Tourists bring in clean bedding and put them on again, and then clean the house. People are not so particular these days. They all know that urban people are tight in housing. These tourists’ houses in the provincial capital are not so big. Look So far I am satisfied.
Feng Yimin’s family doesn’t need to vacate the master room. His house is actually quite big, and there are several rooms in the main room, but he can’t pull all the tourists into his house, otherwise the people in the village should have an opinion. Comrade Wang and the two When the family came to the old Feng’s house, they all laughed and said that he was humble. They were not people who didn’t understand the world, and they all understood Feng Yimin’s concerns, so they didn’t say anything.
There are not many tourists this time, and the villagers also have some income, especially the old Feng family. Mrs. Feng took the opportunity to move the dried meat to the canteen for sale. Several tourists bought ten and eight catties. Song earned seventy or eighty dollars, and she happily counted the money and laughed from ear to ear.
Tourists are also very curious about the American ice drink machine. They look around and look around. This machine is not even in the provincial capital. They let their little dolls go up to take a photo with the machine, and they also bought a glass of ice soda to try. The taste is very delicious.
Comrade Wang’s son is about the same age as the big baby, and he said to the Feng family’s baby with admiration: “Your family is so nice. You can drink ice-cold water every day, and you can swim in the sea every day. I really envy you.”
Several dolls looked at him in confusion, what’s there to envy? Aren’t they all normal things?
Only Dawa said sensible: “There is nothing to envy, I also envy you city people. If you like it, just stay at my house for a few more days.”
This made several parents laugh, “This doll is really amazing, he can do business at such a young age, your Taoyuan Village has a beautiful scenery, and my uncle would like to live for a few more days, but it’s a pity that he has to go back. Go to work, and we will come again when there is a chance.”
Tourists have visited Taoyuan Village in person, and found that it is just as recommended by relatives. The food is good and the accommodation is good. The villagers are very simple and enthusiastic. The most important thing is that the scenery is first-class, which makes them reluctant to go back.
No matter how reluctant the tourists are, they have to leave. The people in the city are not free at all. When they come, they only bring one or two packages. The little dried fish at home, the dolls were carrying fresh peaches in their hands and a big coconut in their arms. Comrade Wang even bought a small basket of fresh crabs, which he planned to bring back to his mother-in-law.
The people in the village sent them to the intersection of the mountain and saw them riding their bicycles far away before walking back to the village with a smile on their faces. The village chief really found a way for them to make money. I heard that there are still tourists coming for a while. They have to tidy up the house quickly, and wait for the tourists to come and make a lot of money.
At noon on this day, the sun was shining in the sky, and the earth was scorching hot. The people in the village stayed at home and took a nap. Suddenly they heard a loud noise from outside, as if all the little children in the village were shouting. , is there something wrong? Are there still tourists coming? The villagers quickly got up from the beds, walked out of the house and looked around, they saw a blue Da Jiefang parked at the entrance of the village, and the little dolls in the village were surrounded by it and looked at it strangely.
Oh, this is really lively, the villagers are all interested, and they rushed to the entrance of the village in a hurry. We all know each other. Isn’t this the old man Feng and the old man Zhang in the village?
The villagers were all shocked, and stammered pointing at the big liberation car: “Old old village chief, did you buy this car? Oh my God, why are you so powerful? This is us. It’s the first time in the village! Oh, tsk tsk, how much did you pay for this car, old village chief? I’m afraid it will cost tens of thousands, right?”
The old man Feng also just got out of the car, and he was not even breathing when he heard the villagers howling here. Selling me is not worth the money of this car. This is the car that my uncle Shitou and I hired from outside. The driver went to the back to use the toilet. You have to be careful, don’t break it for me. If it breaks a little bit, your family won’t be able to pay enough.”
The villagers were all stunned. The car was not cheap, but it couldn’t be damaged. They wished they were far away from the car. On the canvas outside, you can clearly see what good things are hidden inside. The two old men of the Feng family and Zhang family disappeared for more than half a month, and they brought back such a car. They must be doing something else. Maybe this is the way their family makes money. Thinking of this, the villagers all have fiery eyes, and they refuse to leave.
Old Man Feng closed his eyes and knew what they were thinking. He took the ice soda handed over by his old wife and drank it, wiping the corners of his mouth indiscriminately and said, “Aren’t you too hot? Spread out a little, this car There’s nothing unusual about the items on the store. Don’t I have a canteen in my house? These are all the goods I bought. I guess I’m too busy today, so the canteen won’t be entertaining them later. When the goods are ready at my house tomorrow, you can come again. Come on, let’s go.”
Of course the villagers refused to leave. They wished they would turn into ants and get into the car and take a good look. They saw the driver walking out of the coconut grove at the back. He was short and stocky, wearing shorts and a flowered shirt. Fat, wearing a large gold chain around his neck that can blind people, he looks like he is in his thirties, and he looks a little fierce.
The villagers were all attracted by his thick gold chain. I’m darling, how much is this big gold chain worth? This driver can not only afford the Great Liberation, but also wear such a thick gold chain. Tsk tsk, the old man was rich, and he didn’t know where he was from. He heard the driver and old man Feng talking awkward Mandarin, and the babble was similar to bird chirping. Before they could react to the words “qian” and “go back”, Old Man Feng had already finished talking to the driver, and Old Man Zhang went around to the back and lifted the canvas.
The villagers hurriedly opened their eyes to look, but found that the truck was full of big yellow boxes, packed tightly and could not see anything. The three brothers of the village head and Accountant Zhang all went up to move the goods. The driver and The two old men followed suit below, and the villagers hurried over to help. Good guy, those boxes are quite heavy, and now they are even more curious, itchy as if scratched by a cat.
The good-looking villagers came up to inquire with a smile: “Old village chief, don’t betray us. What the **** are you in these boxes, you take them out to give us some insight, how about it?”
“Not so good, what do you think you are in a hurry? When the canteen opens tomorrow, don’t you know?” Seeing that the boxes were all moved into the canteen, Old Man Feng settled the bill for the driver and watched him back up and leave. Only then did he stand at the door of the canteen with a smile and said, “Fellow folks, the house is too messy, so I won’t entertain you for now. You must remember to come and join us tomorrow.”
“Don’t, old village chief, I’ll just…” Before the villagers could finish their words, they were shut by the old man Feng with a bang. Let’s see, they must come tomorrow to take a good look at the secrets of the old Feng family.
