Chapter 4 Abandoned Factory
As the boat headed westward, the faint fragrance of lotus gradually became richer, but only the fragrance of lotus was smelled but no lotus shadows were seen.
When the small black-sailed boat crossed between two cliffs like knife-cut, the whole person's vision suddenly became cheerful. Behind the two cliffs, an endless lotus leaf pond appeared in front of a person and a dog.
"Oh! What a beautiful lotus pond." Dogzi couldn't help but say.
Yan Liang smiled and said, "There are a total of hundreds of acres of lotus flowers here. When the lotus roots are irritated in autumn, more than a thousand kilograms of lotus roots can be produced in a mu of ponds. These ponds can earn a lot of money for the village in a year."
The dog said, "No one has wrapped this pond?"
Yan Liang explained while rowing: "Some people want to buy it, but the village does not allow it. The village chief said that if the ponds here are just a fat family, the lotus and fish produced in these ponds belong to the whole village. After selling them, except for the village, the rest are divided by the heads, and each head can be divided into about 5,000 yuan. This is also a comfort for families who have not rented the ponds. Otherwise, the contradiction of renting the ponds will not be so big."
"This is a good idea." Dogzi nodded and replied, paused and asked again: "In such a large area of water, isn't you enough people?"
Yan Liang also said: "Most of the waters in this lake are owned by the village, and the country has also had policies in recent years, so it is not rented out. The only thing that is rented out is the ponds that were originally built by the swamp, which is of course not enough for everyone to rent."
As he said that, the boat had already sailed into the lotus pond. Yan Liang stopped the boat from time to time, reached out and picked the huge shower head off the stem, and threw it into the cabin.
As I walked along the way, I soon had about twenty lotus pods in the cabin. Each lotus pod was big, as big as a small bowl, and the small one was the size of an adult's palm. Each lotus pod also had at least twenty or thirty lotus pods on it, and it was rare to see a shrunk.
After picking the lotus pods, Yan Liang shook the boat through the lotus, turned along the foot of the mountain to the north, and soon arrived next to a crack in the mountain.
When the dog saw Yan Liang build the boat to the edge of the mountain, he asked, "Is there water here?"
Seeing Yan Liang reaching out and pointing, the dog jumped off the boat and went up the small stone steps. At the end was a small cave. There was only a square pond made of bluestone in the cave. The pool was not very large, about four meters long and two meters wide. As for how deep the pond was, the dog couldn't see it for a moment. The water inside was clear and there was only a big red crucian carp lying at the bottom of the water, motionless like a sculpture.
Yan Liang was carrying the iron bucket in his hand and came to the edge of the pool. He pressed the iron bucket into the pool and then picked it up and went back and forth to fetch water into the three large plastic buckets on the boat.
"Can the water here be drinkable?" asked the dog.
The dog looked at it and found that the water in the pool did not emerge from the bottom of the pool, but from the shore wall next to the pool.
Yan Liang said: "It is not only drinkable, but it is also quite sweet. Some experts have tested it. This water is better than the mineral water sold in ordinary supermarkets. The water in our village has been drinking this pond for hundreds of years, and we have never seen anyone poisoned it. But don't stick your mouth in and drink it, it's human drinking water."
"Do you think I'm a dog?" The dog was furious.
Yan Liang suppressed it with just one sentence: "How about turning you into a turtle and letting you be like that fish in it, and becoming a Dragon King in the Pond?"
The dog rolled his eyes and didn't want to pay attention to Yan Liang.
The strong Yan Liang traveled back and forth ten times and filled the three plastic buckets on the boat and covered the bucket lid. Yan Liang returned to the boat, greeted the dog and returned to the boat, and rocked the boat to prepare to go home.
After leaving the cliff of the lotus pond, the endless lake surface again occupied the sight of a person and a dog. At this moment, the sky was dark, and the road around the mountains and the village had already lit up lights. At this time, the lake surface was like a huge ink-splashing landscape painting, the mountains were hazy and the water was hazy, presenting a beautiful scenery that was completely different from the daytime.
“Where is that place?”
The dog had very little sight and soon found that there was a valley on the mountain wall. This valley was a bit strange because it was on the mountainside and was still a distance from the water surface. And you could vaguely see some long-shaped buildings. These buildings were definitely not residential houses, but they looked like old-fashioned factories in the 1950s and 1960s.
"Oh, there, it turned out to be an arsenal, but it was abandoned later," Yan Liang replied.
"Why is the arsenal built here?" Gouzi was puzzled, because he could tell at a glance that this place was not very convenient. It was surrounded by mountains on three sides and faced by lakes. What kind of factory would be built in this place.
Yan Liang said: "The product of the times. Shortly after the founding of the People's Republic of China, domestic factories were relocated, so a factory moved here."
The dog naturally knew it. It was not that it knew it but that it was a witness of human history. He nodded his head after hearing this: "Oh, I know this, Soviet Defense Minister Grechko, and that Cuikov."
"Later, the factory was moved out slowly, but there were no people, but the factory building, including a mountain fortification, remained," Yan Liang said again.
Many young people don’t know this history now, but the villagers in Yan Liang’s hometown remember it. As long as the building is there, this history will be constantly mentioned by the elders.
The small black-sailed boat was flying over the lake and passed by the abandoned factory. After stopping the boat for a few minutes, Yan Liang then set off the oar again and drove towards the village.
When he returned to the village, he first sent two buckets of water from the boat to his uncle's house. After returning home, Yan Liang refused his grandfather's help alone and moved a large bucket of water into the kitchen at home.
After a trip, I was sweating profusely, took a shower casually, and returned to the room and lie back on the bed and started to continue to sift my phone.
The dog was lying beside Yan Liang's bed, as if he was sleeping, but a holographic image of the factory building and fortifications just now appeared in his mind. Soon, small dots fell on this holographic image.
"Hey, I think..."
The dog was about to talk to Yan Liang, but he found that his new owner had fallen asleep happily while snoring.
The dog was helpless and got up and stood on the bed, stretching out a dog's head to look at his new owner, sighing: "You really have no ambitions!"
Yan Liang didn't hear the dog's sigh. Now he was dreaming of marrying a wife. He was dressed as a man dressed in a tall horse, holding a big red silk in his hand. The other end of the silk was held in the hand of a graceful girl wearing a phoenix crown and a robe. After three bows, Yan Liang picked up the red scale pole and lifted the bride's veil.
The bride was so beautiful that she looked like Gao Yuanyuan at first glance, and then Zeng Li at second glance. She looked carefully and found that she looked like Taylor Swift. She wanted to see what she looked like, but suddenly a tingling sound broke Yan Liang's dream.
Opening his eyes, sitting up, mechanically reaching out and pressing the alarm clock, Yan Liang found that his bride was gone, and his 24k pure silk was still in his small room.
After getting up in a daze, going downstairs to wash up, Yan Liang changed his clothes, pinched some tea leaves into his big tea jar, soaked it in hot water, and took the dog out and boarded the black-sailed boat.
Ah~!
While rowing and yawning, the small black-sailed boat sailed towards the dock.
Before four o'clock, the boat arrived at the dock, and the dock also showed a different scene from yesterday. When I came back yesterday afternoon, I was deserted, but now it was as lively as a vegetable market.
Two tall street lights illuminated the entire factory like daytime. There were dozens of people, twenty or thirty refrigerated trucks of all sizes, all crowded next to the dock. The dock was filled with boats of all sizes, and boxes of aquatic products were transported from boats of all sizes and scaled onto the car.
As soon as the ship stopped, Yan Liang seemed to be full of electricity, and he was completely gone from the drowsiness he had just now. He jumped off the ship and joined the loading and unloading army.
After a while, Yan Liang took off his shirt and carried baskets of fish into the car like others.
The cars parked on the dock drove away one by one.
At this time, an iron-shelled ship, about twice as big as an ordinary black-sailed ship, sailed into the dock and leaned against the east side of the dock.
"Third brother!"
Yan Liang then followed the cable thrown by the middle-aged man on the boat and skillfully tied the cable to the iron bolt on the dock.
The one who came was Yan Liang's third brother Yan Rusong.
After the boat was tied up, Yan Liang drove his refrigerated truck over with a trot and aimed the carriage at the dock.
The men on the dock quickly loaded the goods with Yan Liang and Yan Rusong. In less than ten minutes, they all put all the lobster baskets on the iron ship into the refrigeration truck.
Yan Rusong thanked the villagers first. Everyone came here like this. No matter who comes from the goods, they will be in charge of them. There is no need to do anything about money or not. If you help me and I help you, everyone's goods will be fast, which will make it convenient for others and save yourself time. Otherwise, if two or three people are allowed to get on a car, even if the car is dawn, the car may not be gone.
Yan Rusong thanked him a lot, after dissipating half of the cigarette, he gave Yan Liang a list: "This is the goods you want to deliver today, please be careful on the way."
Yan Liang nodded: "I understand."
"The shrimps for your friend have also been packed. I specially picked them all," Yan Rusong said.
"Brother Xie San" Yan Liang smiled and put the order in his pocket, then turned around and called the dog into the car.
"Hey, why did Xiaoliang bring a black dog today?"
Yan Rusong touched his head, but he didn't have time to think about these chores. Once the goods were unloaded, he had to return to the lobster pond. It was the season for shrimp to be produced. If there was a little mistake, the efforts of the year would be in vain.
