Chapter seven hundred and eighteen relatives not spending money
Carefully bypassing Yilan County, the two of them sat on a sled and walked along the Songhua River for more than two days to arrive at Fujin.
"You might as well go back. Your banditry aura is easily seen, and it will be bad if it causes trouble. Go back and tell the third master what I said to him and let him think about it again." Qian Xiaobao said to Wei Gousheng.
"Okay, I don't want to enter Fujin Street either. Let's break up here. I'm going to Xinglonggang to meet Li Yanhui." Wei Gousheng said.
Now Fujin County is occupied by the army of the northern powers and the county government of the Red Party, but bandits often appear in large areas nearby.
The bandits are now waiting for the day when the troops of the great northern powers evacuate, which is when they counterattack and smash, loot and burn.
Qian Xiaobao left the sled to Wei Gousheng and walked into Fujin Street alone with his suitcase. When he was in the puppet Manchukuo, Qian Xiaobao had come to Fujin, but he had never entered Fujin at the Kwantung Army headquarters.
The family of Caizhu Zhang is a famous wealthy family on Fujin Street. Qian Xiaobao asked someone on the main street to inquire. The man pointed his hand at the east end of the town and said, "Go east, the courtyard next to the old temple is the one!"
Qian Xiaobao walked east with his suitcase and saw several soldiers from the northern powers wandering on the street. The Kwantung Army used Fu Jin as an important military stronghold, built a large number of military fortifications here, and stationed the 10th Division. Now the northern powers army also retained a regiment of troops here.
More than ten minutes later, Qian Xiaobao stood in front of a large courtyard set to the east of the town. He looked at the fence more than two meters high and the small cannon tower on the four corners of the wall.
This family must be very rich. In the words of bandits, this place is a hard kiln.
The door is open, and you can see from the door inside that the east and west wing rooms and the wide main rooms are all blue bricks and tile houses.
The yard was empty and there was no living thing to see.
Qian Xiaobao walked over the threshold and walked into the yard and heard the dull sound of pushing and grinding in the west wing. He walked to the door and saw two old men with their heads, faces and bodies in them.
Two wooden bars were inserted into the hole of the upper stone mill, and the two old men pressed the wooden bars against their stomachs and pushed them forward with force.
Place a large winch at the exit of the stone mill, and the ground flour and bran fall into it.
The reason why the two old men were covered in white was because the flour particles fell on their bodies.
"Uncle, does Zhang Cai advocate Zhang Houde live here?" Qian Xiaobao asked.
The two old men stopped pushing the mill and stared at Qian Xiaobao with their eyes. That was the only place where the two of them were black now.
"I am Zhang Houde, who are you?" the old man asked.
"I am your son Zhang Lixing's friend. I rushed back from Shanghai to see your two elders!" Qian Xiaobao replied.
He said as he took out a letter from the pocket of his clothes and handed it to the old man. The old man took the envelope with his trembling hands and opened it, pulling out the letter paper and a photo of his work.
That was taken by Zhang Lixing standing in front of Standard Chartered Bank on the Bund.
Another old man staggered over and snatched the photo and cried with tears.
When Qian Xiaobao heard the crying, he realized that this was an old lady. Could it be that this old lady was Zhang Lixing's mother? Why did such a rich rich man personally grind the face?
"Uncle, isn't there anyone at home to carry the labour? I saw that there was a gun tower on the wall, where did the gunners go?" Qian Xiaobao asked.
"Who has the heart to work at this time? The gunners have gone to the government security brigade. Liu Yanlai Commander Liu is now organizing the team. I have contributed all eight people and eight guns." The old man replied.
"Yes, the Chinese New Year is coming soon, and those who are carrying the work will go home for the New Year." Qian Xiaobao nodded and agreed.
The old man Zhang Houde lowered his head and said nothing when he heard Qian Xiaobao's words.
"It's good to practice hard in Shanghai? Have you ever married a wife? Do you have a child?" the old lady asked repeatedly.
"Where is written on the letter, you will know everything you read it." Qian Xiaobao said.
But Zhang Houde smiled and handed the letter to Qian Xiaobao.
Qian Xiaobao then realized that the old man was blind and could not read at all.
Qian Xiaobao took the letter and read the letter from Zou Zou written by Zhang Lixing and said, "You may not understand it. In short, everything is fine when he is there. He wants you to go to Shanghai with me to spend a few days and come back."
While talking, four or five young and strong young men walked into the yard, followed by two dogs behind them.
"Uncle!" shouted the young man walking in the front. The few people behind him said to Zhang Dehou.
"I've been running outside for a day and haven't cooked yet?" asked a young man.
"I just finished grinding the noodles and haven't had time to do it yet." The old lady said awkwardly.
"Cook, the children are all hungry." Zhang Dehou urged his wife and said.
After saying that, Zhang Dehou took Qian Xiaobao into the main room.
The two of them walked into the house and sat down. Qian Xiaobao asked, "What are these people doing?"
"It's all my fault, and I have been in charge of it here for several years." Zhang Dehou said.
"No need to keep young and strong people, why are you two old people grinding noodles?" Qian Xiaobao asked strangely.
Zhang Dehou replied in silence for a while: "Now the county town is rumored that it is about to divide the land. How can these people still have the heart to do their own work? They are all waiting to divide the land and do their own things."
Qian Xiaobao then understood the meaning of Zhang Dehou saying that he had no intention of working.
"It's good that you two old men are old, so I'll go to Shanghai with me and live a life with my son!" Qian Xiaobao said.
But Zhang Dehou lowered his head and sighed: "The family's property is saved by the third generation of the Zhang family who went to the fifth day of the morning to save money in the middle of the night. How can I just throw it away? Besides, what can I do when I arrive in Shanghai? I feel uncomfortable if I don't work for a day!"
"Old slut!" Qian Xiaobao cursed in his heart.
Two big pots cook together, and the rice will be ready soon, sorghum rice and sauerkraut stew frozen tofu.
Five people worked here, plus the old man and Qian Xiaobao, a total of eight people sat around the table.
"No oil star at all! Uncle, it's the Chinese New Year, let's kill the New Year pig today." Zhang Dehou's nephew complained.
Zhang Dehou's muscles on his face were so angry that he trembled. He wanted to slap the table and curse people, but he forced himself to suppress the anger in his heart. He used to lend him a courage and dared not talk to him like this!
"Tomorrow, kill it tomorrow." Zhang Dehou said.
From tomorrow on, I can eat meat every day, and several young people have become active.
"I heard you are here to pick up my uncle and aunt to Shanghai? How is Brother Lixing doing in Shanghai?" Zhang Dehou's nephew asked.
"Of course I'm doing it. I live in a small western-style building and take a car when I go in and out!" Qian Xiaobao said.
When the old man and the old lady heard others praise their son, the old man and his face immediately became bright, but several young people, including Zhang Dehou's nephew, just laughed dryly, which was considered support. Perhaps only when they heard that Zhang Lixing was unlucky outside would they be truly happy.
After dinner, Qian Xiaobao started to do the work of two old men, but he got rid of his mouth and the two old men just refused to go to Shanghai with him.
The old man and the old lady seemed to have grown up with the land and could not be separated at all.
At night, Qian Xiaobao walked into the yard alone, and two dogs guarding the house looked at him vigilantly. During the day, the young man took them out when he went out to play.
There were a few people laughing in the east wing room. Qian Xiaobao pushed open the door and saw five people gathered together playing dice.
"It's good to have no home and no job, free! Do whatever you want and be unrestrained. If you marry a wife in the future, you won't have the best life you are now." Qian Xiaobao said.
"Who doesn't want to marry a wife? But I don't have money. When I divide the land, house, bedding, clothes, mules, horses and animals in the future, I will marry my wife immediately!" Zhang Houde's nephew said with anticipation.
Qian Xiaobao was stunned for a moment and seemed to understand something.
"Brother, I heard you came from a big place. Tell us what's going on?" another young man said.
Qian Xiaobao suddenly became energetic. He cleared his throat and said, "There are so many things to do! The women there are wearing clothes and their arms are exposed outside!"
He pointed his fingers at the thighs near his butts and said, "It's here! The women there are forked from here, and their entire thighs are exposed!"
Several young men looked at Qian Xiaobao's thighs and imagined the graceful figures of the women on the beach, saliva flowed out.
"I feel bad! My brother, I see such a woman on the street every day?" Zhang Dehou's nephew asked with a swallow.
"He's not just looking at it." Qian Xiaobao replied.
The eyes of several young people immediately flashed with thief light. Not only did they look at it, but what else could they do?
Qian Xiaobao deliberately lowered his voice and whispered: "I tell you, don't spread it!"
The young man nodded desperately as if he had been cast by magic.
"Brother, don't worry, if we say it, this is it!" After saying this, Zhang Dehou's nephew stretched out his right hand and compared it to a turtle.
"Okay, I'll tell you quietly that Zhang Lixing is in Shanghai. There are not only Chinese women, but also many blond and blue-eyed foreign women. It won't take long to give birth to two strings (mixed-race children)!" Qian Xiaobao said.
Several young people who grew up had never heard such a novelty as they did tonight, and they all opened their mouths and stared at Qian Xiaobao with their eyes wide open.
"Do you know what the second currant is like? Think about what happens if the sticky corn and stupid corn are planted together? What happens if the donkey and horse are together?" Qian Xiaobao said at the end.
Several young men nodded suddenly with enlightenment under the vivid teaching of biology professor Qian Xiaobao!
