Chapter 54: February 1996 Tianguang
February 1996 Tianguang
Luhe Village is still too remote. It is obvious that there are precious gems here, and the merchants on foot are not willing to bring their goods into the snow to trade in the harsh winter.
There are too few things produced in Luhe Village. The only thing that attracts the outside world is the rough gemstone. I pay attention to the number of gemstones sold each time, and it must not be too much. Otherwise, once it loses the scarcity of the gemstone itself, it will no longer be valuable. maintain.
The caravans won't be coming back this winter, but they'll definitely be back next spring, and I'm sure they'll bring more cargo. In the past, they would not bring good things to the remote Luhe Village. Now it is different. The villagers of Luhe Village are rich, and they will earn more by bringing good things.
I really look forward to someone willing to settle in Luhe Village. Although I know I can’t be in a hurry, I still hope to see that Luhe Village can attract more and more people. At least Luhe Village should have a store, and if possible, even more. There's a restaurant or a hotel...that's what I think it should look like.
It's hard to believe that I've been in this world for so long, and I haven't seen alcohol. I asked the clerk and he said that no one in town drinks the kind of dizzy drink I've described.
My concept of winemaking only stays at the stage of fermenting grains or fruits in airtight containers, but according to my understanding, I may have the opportunity to brew wine by checking the information.
Whether it is ginseng potato or wild fruit, as long as it can brew alcoholic beverages, some people should like it.
The rough gemstones in Luhe may allow greedy businessmen to get rid of water monsters, but it may not be enough to make Luhe Village attract more people and become a small town. I want to find a way for Luhe Village to make money for a long time. If Luhe Village can make wine, selling wine will be a good job.
The annoying thing is that fermenting wine requires yeast, and yeast is a living thing, and I can't bring it from another world, which is very embarrassing.
cough! Hope to use the original point method to successfully brew the bar.
As long as I am willing to pay my salary, the young people in the village are reluctant to stop working in the quarry. Most of the activities in this season have stopped in previous years, and everyone is ready to stay at home. This year, the young people in the village are particularly active. , in addition to being forced by me to run circles in the village to exercise, there are many people who go out to the village to hunt with the hunters with weapons, and the harvest is very rich.
My logging quarry and quarry are very promising. Before the recruitment of workers next spring, there are already many young people who want to work under me, especially those who have been working in the quarry during this period. They have already Tasting the sweetness from the generous salary, I am eager to keep this job going.
My parents told me not to bring things back from this world, but I still brought some of them as a habit. There were not many things to eat and drink, mainly gadgets brought by the traveling merchants from other places, which opened the eyes of my parents.
At breakfast in the morning, I showed my parents the gadgets I brought back.
Said to be gadgets, they are just some bizarre animal or plant specimens. They were originally alchemy materials that traders wanted to sell to witch doctors, or they were spices for cooking. I picked them out and sealed them in transparent crystals. , like amber.
The strange little beetles, the brightly colored thick leaves and the dried products of the little lizards gave my parents a lot of common sense of life in the opposite world. They heard me say that the people on the other side use the dried small lizards as a seasoning. When I frowned, no matter how I told them the soup was delicious, they wouldn't let me eat that kind of thing in the future.
The taxidermy is not popular, and the plant specimen is very popular with my dad. He put a few plant specimen crystals in my house, and it looks pretty good.
Originally, I also wanted to show them some jewelry with the characteristics of the opposite world, but the jewelry sold by the traveling merchants was a bit expensive, and it was not worth it. Even the stone beads with a particularly simple shape were worth a lot.
Due to the lack of high-quality tools, a simple task such as drilling a hole in a stone sometimes requires an adult to work hundreds of hours to complete. A necklace made of pale green jade-like stones is worth more than 30 gold coins. I really can't mention it. interest in collecting.
My parents were far less interested in those specimens than they were about Wang Jerry. They urged me to develop photos early in the morning. As soon as the photos came out, they rushed over to look at them, and they asked me what was inside.
With pictures, they can know my life on the other side.
My parents are very concerned about how Wang Jerry and I are. Winter is coming, do we eat well, dress warmly, sleep soundly, and whether Wang Jerry has been bitten by mosquitoes?
The photo of Wang Jerry's birthday made my parents especially like it, especially when I saw that the baby really wore the little clothes she made by herself, my mother was so happy, she kept telling me that she wanted to buy wool and knit a sweater for Wang Jerry by herself.
My dad is still very emotional. In his eyes, I am also a child. Now he is brave enough to be a father to take care of the children, which is much harder than when he took care of me at the beginning.
My dad also thought about it before, when I got married, he would help his son take care of his little grandson and granddaughter like most grandfathers here, but he never thought that he would never meet the first grandson.
My dad said that when I grow up, get married and have children of my own, he will help me pull it off. I told him that I was still young and didn't want to talk about such topics.
Today is the second day of the Chinese New Year. The weather is not very good. After the morning, the wind will pick up, and the yellow dust will pop up. Especially in our neighborhood, the sand and dust can hardly make people breathe well.
My dad's three relatives came to my house with cheap gifts in such bad weather. They didn't wear masks and coughed a lot along the way.
"Cough! Cough! I don't know why, there is so much dust today!" An uncle complained while shrinking his neck.
"Yes, my house is usually very clean, there is never any dust, I don't know what happened today, the wind picked up in the morning, and a layer of dust fell on the house not long after, you see the air is dirty..." my dad greeted Relatives sat and frowned when they saw the thick dust on the furniture at home. It was rare for my family to come to relatives, so it was so dusty that I couldn't see it.
I only told my parents that I can control stones and glass to change shape, but I never said that I can control air and dust. My dad may find it strange, but he has no doubts about me.
"Cough cough! Cough-cough-cough!" The uncle who wore glasses and a leather jacket coughed so badly that he could hardly breathe. He had difficulty breathing, and every time he inhaled, he seemed to feel countless dust rushing towards him. His nostrils and mouth were drilled, and he felt like his entire lungs were about to be filled with dust.
Another uncle could not stop coughing: "Cough cough! Drink—depressed!" He spat out a mouthful of thick sputum on the ground. The sputum was almost gray-brown with blood streaks in it. He took a deep breath and coughed. Even more powerful.
"Cough cough, Wang San, we are here today... cough cough, we want to borrow from you... cough cough! cough—" The third uncle struggled to explain his purpose.
My dad patted the three cousins on the back anxiously: "Brother, are you all right? There is a lot of dust today, do you want to drink some water?"
"No, we are... cough cough! cough cough..." struggling to think The face of the talking uncle was already purple-gray due to lack of oxygen, and his whole body was dizzy.
The three uncles were in such a bad state that they helped each other to the hospital before they finished speaking. I guess they had a hunch that if they continued to stay at my house and insist on borrowing money, they might not be able to return home alive.
Inhaling a large amount of dust at one time will cause a great burden on the lungs, but it will not cause people to suffer from pneumoconiosis. After all, the lungs also have a certain self-purification ability, but if the three uncles are ignorant and insist on coming to my house three or five times, Then I'm afraid it's hard to eat New Year's Eve dinner, I don't mind going to give a gift to their family's white affairs.
Not long after the three uncles left, the second aunt and the second uncle also came. They still had a bad cough. First, they praised my dad, saying that he had looked down on my dad before, and then he said with tears that his family has had a lot of life in recent years. How sad, crying and coughing, almost dying.
My dad was also very sad to hear it, and shed tears with my second aunt, but my second aunt and second uncle just coughed desperately and didn't ask him anything, which made my dad feel a little lost. My dad helped the second aunt and the second uncle. After a long time, the weather didn't improve, so I could only send the second aunt and uncle who were in ill health away.
In the evening, I came to my aunt's family, still coughing. After complimenting my dad a few words, the whole family kept coughing. The coughing sound was like a symphony. It almost sounded like coughing out my lungs. My dad only fainted. Hearing something like "borrowing money", he asked my aunt if she wanted to borrow money. The aunt's family coughed violently and nodded desperately, but the aunt's family didn't say how much and how to borrow it, because the aunt's cough was too severe and dizzy. After that, the family members hurriedly carried her to the hospital.
On the third and fourth day of the new year, my relatives also came to my house. In previous years, I never saw anyone visiting my house to pay New Year's greetings, but this year it was so lively that the people who came here had some coughs, but it meant that I just wanted to give my dad a New Year's greeting, and There are other things to leave soon, and the cough is much lighter. After drinking a cup of tea and chatting with my dad for a few words, I said goodbye and left, which made my dad feel quite happy.
The relatives who came to my house in the following time had more or less coughs. Most of the relatives only coughed a few times due to the dust after entering the door, and then returned to normal quickly, but there were also more sensitive ones. The whole sentence was incomplete, and in the end, his face was pale and he covered his chest and left, which is really quite terrifying.
My parents are not stupid. The same thing happened so many times. I realized that I was playing tricks. My dad was very unhappy that I was messing with his relatives, but he also understood that I was doing it for him. , I pretended to be stupid, and he stopped trying to dissuade me.
In short, the first month passed smoothly. The funny thing is that my dad is still in pain. He said sourly, "If you are poor, you will be alone, and if you are successful, you will help the world." He used to have no money, and everyone looked down on him. Relatives want his help, but our family has nothing, no wonder relatives look down on him.
Having said all that, who doesn't know how careful he is? I really admire those relatives who can train my dad like a puppy. Even if he is starving to death, if he finds a piece of meat and bones, he wants to bring it back to them to eat. It doesn't matter whether his wife and children are hungry or not.
I made it very clear to my dad that as long as his relatives borrowed money from him, they would suffer from a very incurable disease. This disease is generally more common among workers in coal mines, cement plants and caves. See, after getting it, there is almost no cure, only painful and helpless waiting for death.
My dad didn't know about pneumoconiosis at all, and it was only after my popular science that he knew how terrible it was. He was shocked when he heard that I was going to deal with his relatives, and he called me vicious and inhuman on the spot.
I told him that as long as he didn't take our family's money to "benefit the world", no one would be hurt, otherwise those relatives were killed by him, and he was the one who knew he had a knife in his hand and stabbed it human murderer.
I'm not being reasonable. My dad can't do anything about me at all, so I'll just say it straight. The good days are not earned by his rotten canteen. The big deal is that I will take my mother to move out. Without me, the canteen will only make money. Can barely support him alone, he is still the poor dog before, let's see if his dear relatives will continue to despise him.
My dad was very sad. He was drunk at home drinking beer, crying that his wife and son didn't understand him, and he was wronged.
