Era: Start as a buyer

Chapter 11 A good fortune

Yanzi, I'm leaving. Come visit me in the town when you have time. I promise to get you delicious food. Now that I have money, I can take you to restaurants in the city. But I haven't got a wife yet, so you have to give it to me. Washing clothes, my clothes are not clean.

Well, when the eggs are finished, I'll tell dad to go to town to see you.

Luo Cheng nodded and left. As for whether he should mainly ask Luo Yan to wash his clothes or go to a restaurant. This is an obvious thing. If you give him an egg to wash his clothes, the neighbor next door can wash him cleanly. There was no need to go to a restaurant, so Luo Cheng called his sister to visit him, mainly to help him wash clothes. He went to the restaurant because Luo Yan was his sister, which was different from wanting her to do the laundry.

After leaving Huangfengling, Luo Cheng went to the mountain where he had set up a trap. It was actually a big mountain. If he kept walking around in the mountain, he could walk around for several days. If you walk along the path in the mountains, it is of course easy to reach the top of the mountain.

First, I checked the traps. It would be unrealistic to think about catching wild birds every day, but I still had good luck today. The two rabbits are not very big. Now is the season for rabbits to breed and grow. It is easy to catch rabbits, but it is not easy to catch big rabbits.

After briefly handling the rabbit, Luo Cheng began to look for wild animals. There are many wild fruits in the mountains now, including peaches and plums. But wild fruits are not big, so you still have to look for them. To find mountain products and fruits, you have to go to the roadless forest to find them.

Soon Luo Cheng found a wild pepper tree that was already growing pepper. Zanthoxylum bungeanum fruits are also quite large and ready for picking. In fact, the best picking period is when they are more mature in another month. But if you pick up things in the mountains when you see them, these peppercorns will become more mature after being picked for a while.

There are thorns on the branches of Zanthoxylum bungeanum, so picking them is slow without tools. However, Luo Cheng didn't plan to pick them all, so he just chose the ones with larger grains. You can't just spend one day on one pepper tree. If you don't find others later, it's not a bad idea to come back and get more.

After walking around all morning, I found a few wild date trees, but now they have no fruits. I also saw a green peach in the peach tree, not big. Luo Cheng picked some. If you don’t pick them now, unless you keep an eye on them, if they are more mature and others don’t pick them, the animals will eat a lot.

In addition to peaches and pepper, Luo Cheng also picked some other fruits, many of which he couldn't name. There is a kind of fruit that is about the size of a thumb and tastes very good.

In fact, although there are a lot of them done, generally no one does it deliberately. The fruit has a lot of water and is not very hungry. Going up the mountain is a waste of energy. People who don't go up the mountain often, even if they don't have enough to eat by farming, don't come to the mountains to look for food. They just dig some wild vegetables. When villagers and people from the town go up the mountain, it is the season when mushrooms and bamboo shoots grow on the mountain. These are easy to find in large quantities.

By the time Luo Cheng came back from the mountain, the sun was almost setting. And when he found his mother waiting for him at his home, the main reason was that the matchmaking was just a formality, and the date was set directly. On June 28th of this month, he went to accountant Zhao's house to welcome the bride, which didn't take many days.

The days may be tight, today is already the 22nd, but June 28th is indeed a good day. In addition, a commune will be established in the town at the beginning of next month. Accountant Zhao plans to have Luo Cheng become his son-in-law before the end of the month, and then rely on his connections in the town to arrange for Luo Cheng to be a mountain ranger.

Moreover, it was originally planned that two tables would be enough, but Accountant Zhao wanted to invite the town leaders, so three tables were required. Knowing that Luo Cheng didn't have tables and chairs here, Accountant Zhao would go to the primary school in the town to borrow some. Moreover, the school in the town happened to be on holiday, so he could just send someone to get it then.

As for the venue, it's just here. There's one table in the room and two tables outside. No matter how shabby Luo Cheng's place was, there was no reason to set up a banquet at Accountant Zhao's place. In that case, it would be a walk-in.

Luo Cheng said he understood and asked if he would like to take some of the things collected from the mountain today. And his mother looked at what Luo Cheng had brought from the mountain. They were two small rabbits. Although the meat was meat, it was easy for hunters to get prey in this season, so they were too embarrassed to ask for it.

As for the wild fruits on the mountains, people in the mountains don't like them either. It would be okay if they could have these in winter. Seeing that Sichuan peppercorns are good, I got some Sichuan peppercorns and made them into powder, which is very good for barbecue.

In the end, Luo Cheng's mother took some Sichuan peppercorns and went back without saying anything about running the third table to help Luo Cheng. There is only one pheasant at the door. It’s not enough to cook three bowls of food. One more pheasant will be enough.

Ngee Ann City, National Security Department.

The matter here has come to an end. Fortunately, this German soldier was not allowed to escape. The letter on his body was of great help. I heard that this man was found and beaten to death by a villager.

Director, yes, that man is the son of an Orion. He was rewarded with a hundred yuan and some things. That kid was very brave and wanted to hide Zhang Dejun's pistol. He had an obvious gunshot wound on his arm. Fortunately, it was just a scrape of flesh. If it had been a little off and hit a bone, the boy's arm might have been crippled.

Well, no matter what, even if it was a coincidence, he still risked his life. And we didn't know that Zhang Dejun had such important clues at the beginning, so we only rewarded him with a hundred yuan, which is too little.

Director, we also hurriedly determined the character of the incident at that time, and promised the boy that there would be rewards. It was just that we were on a mission, and we didn't think of any rewards for him at the moment.

Hmm~~, let me think about it, even if this matter is over, I can't tell him the specific situation. It's better not to know some things, but his unintentional contribution is indeed not small. I think so, no matter how much things are given, At most, it's all nothing. What's more, the villages and towns are about to be collectivized, and Orion will be greatly affected. In this way, ask Lao Li to open a letter of introduction for him and give him a more suitable job in the city. The job will not be designated and let him Take your pick.”

That's not bad. He has a rural household registration. Giving him a job is better than anything else.

Yes, but compared to his contribution, we actually still have an advantage.

Director, you can't say that. That kid can only be regarded as a coincidence and not intentional. Otherwise, let Lao Dai come forward and take him to report it personally.

Okay, let's do it this way. This can be considered a blessing for that kid.

There are three children in Lao Zhang's family. The eldest is called Da Mao and the second is called Er Mao. What is the name of the third? Sanmao? Wrong, it’s called Sanmei. It’s not nice to call a girl Sanmao. They are all nicknames anyway, so you can call them whatever is convenient.

The water tank was filled by Lao Zhang, and Luo Cheng gave his children some wild peaches, which were a bit hard and not too sweet in taste. They were mainly refreshing to eat. Luo Cheng doesn't know the situation of wild peaches in other places. Anyway, the wild peaches here will not be very sweet even if they are more mature.
