Dashan Makes a Living 1984: Chapter 221 Met a Knife Holder in the Shop

  Chapter 221 217: I met a knife holder in the shop

  At the end of June, Wang Xiaomei came back from Lancheng.

   It was for her father-in-law for three years.

  The so-called three years refers to the third year after a person dies, and it can be considered an important date.

   After the death of an adult in Qingcheng, the first and third years are more important.

  The first year is called the first anniversary, and the three years are called the three years.

  The three years of many wealthy families are even as important as the funeral at the time of death, which is very ceremonial.

  Wang Xiaomei's husband's family is in Dong Yuan Town.

   Not very far from the prefab factory.

  She also brought back Wang Hongwei's physical condition, and learned that after the examination at the First People's Hospital of Lancheng, the doctor said that thanks to the timely delivery, the tumor was still benign, so she arranged for an operation.

   I will be discharged from the hospital in about half a month.

  The family members were relieved.

  Wang Tianxiao secretly asked about the cost, and said that it was enough for the time being, and there was not much to go without it.

  Wang Tianxiao told her that if there was any shortage, he would fill it up for the time being, and he would remit it to her when he came back, but Wang Xiaomei refused.

   Said that although she didn't go to work, her husband worked in the food bureau after all, so his income was relatively stable, and it was nothing to pay for his nephew's surgery.

   After all, Wang Tianxiao has already paid for the big head, and the rest is just to add something.

  Since Wang Tianren's child's accident, his wife has not been seen for a while, and he seems to have suddenly lost his mind, and has been insane all day long.

  Every morning, I don’t see anyone, and I come back at night.

  Zhang Yufeng hated him very much at first, scolding him whenever she saw him, but she simply didn't bother to pay attention to him afterwards.

   Everyone didn't know how he lived every day, but just watched his healthy body gradually thinning out.

  Already short, she gradually became thinner.

  Wang Xiaomei is the eldest sister. Even though Wang Tianren is like this, she still can't bear to see him continue to be decadent, and she really wants the brothers to help him.

  But the members of the Wang family have very personalities.

  After that kind of thing happened, no one wants to see Wang Tianren now, it's fine if he doesn't beat him up, who cares about his life or death.

  So, until Wang Xiaomei left, this matter was still not resolved.

  The custom here is like this. Once a daughter is married, she basically belongs to someone else's family, and there is no way to interfere with her natal family's affairs.

  Talk too much, and it may be annoying.

  She knew that in this family, the one who was really soft-hearted was Wang Tianxiao, but the relationship between Wang Tianxiao and Wang Tianren was so bad, and now that she had done so much, naturally she couldn't expect him to do more.

   When I had to leave, I told my mother specifically.

   As for the effect, I can't say for sure.

  Wang Tianxiao knew that Hongwei had undergone surgery and was recovering well, so he felt relieved.

  As for Wang Tianren's matter, although he didn't say too many sharp words in front of the eldest sister, he has already made clear his position.

  He could never forgive Wang Tianren.

  Although he is a brother, his life and death have nothing to do with him.

  Even if he died today, I probably wouldn't attend his funeral.

   This is all Wang Tianren's own choice. Now that he has reached this point, he has to bear the backlash.

  If everyone can be forgiven for doing wrong, then who will do good.

   It’s too paradoxical for everyone to do evil first, feel that they are not good enough, and then suddenly put down the butcher knife and ask others to forgive them.

  Things at home are gradually improving, and things outside are also progressing slowly.

  The road from Mijia Village to Yangziling has already started to be built. Because the construction team is relatively professional and not a grassroots team, the progress is quite rapid.

  In just over a week, the underground foundation has been dug out and the surrounding reinforcement has been done. Wang Tianxiao basically went to check it every day. He stepped on the foundation very seriously and beat the side walls, but he didn't find any major problems.

   It seems that Liu Mang is still trustworthy.

  According to this construction period, it will take about two months to complete the repair.

  Wang Tianxiao roughly calculated, according to this speed, it will be repaired by the end of July and the beginning of August, and it should be able to catch up with the harvest of medicinal herbs.

   It is going well.

  The sheep of his mother-in-law’s family are gradually getting on the right track. What makes him even more excited is that among the bought Zhongwei goats, more than a dozen ewes are still producing milk and have not stopped.

  Dairy goats are the same as dairy cows, they are specially selected species, and the continuous milk production time will be longer.

  Sheep and human body mechanism are different.

  Once a ewe has given birth to a baby, as long as there is no human intervention and sufficient nutrition and water are maintained, it can continue to produce milk.

  As long as you express milk on time every day.

  Professional sheep farmers in later generations, especially those with a large number, all adopt artificial breeding, but in this era, they mainly rely on billy goats.

  It may be that these goats have already given birth to a litter, so there is no withdrawal from breast milk.

  Goat's milk and cow's milk are both animal milks, and both are more suitable for human consumption.

   But relatively speaking, cow's milk is used more frequently than goat's milk, not to say that cow's milk is more nutritious than goat's milk, but because the yield of cow's milk is higher than that of goat's milk.

  In order to promote goat milk, many advertisements in later generations are not accurate.

  Strictly speaking, both have their own advantages.

  The main advantage of milk is that it is rich in calcium, zinc, and high in protein, while goat milk is mainly carbohydrates, and some vitamins are higher in content.

   But why do some people say that goat milk is the closest to human breast milk?

  Because goat milk contains less casein, much more whey protein, and much smaller fat particles, so it is more suitable for children and the elderly.

  Therefore, it is not necessary to deliberately exaggerate the effect of goat milk, but there is still a market for targeted consumption.

  Especially many mothers have insufficient milk, so they can use goat milk as a supplement.

  In the first few days, only a few sheep in the mother-in-law’s family were producing milk, so they could still be digested by the family, but only a small amount was kept. But after a few days, not only the number of sheep producing milk has increased, but the family can no longer drink.

   As a result, goat milk accumulates more and more.

  When Wang Tianxiao passed by, he was a little confused when he saw a big pot of goat milk.

   It is true that he did not expect the goat milk to be produced so soon.

  One dairy goat can produce three to four catties of goat milk every day, and a dozen goats can produce forty to fifty catties of goat milk. After filling a tank for two days, the tank is already more than half full. Maybe it will be full tomorrow.

  If it goes on like this, I'm afraid it will be drained.

  Wang Tianxiao leaned over the mouth of the tank and smelled it, and felt that the smell was not right.

  He smiled wryly and said to the father-in-law who followed: "Uncle, throw away the milk in this tank, it is no longer usable."

   "Ah, it's only been out for a day or two."

   "It won't work for a day or two. It's summer, and things are perishable, let alone goat milk. Anyone who drinks this stuff will have diarrhea."

   "It's too wasteful, such white milk is all fed by grass."

  Wang Tianxiao could only smile wryly.

  Under his persuasion, the father-in-law still took out the milk and poured it under the cherry tree.

   It is impossible to drink, but it is no problem to use it as fertilizer for trees.

  After returning, he went to the sheep pen again, looked at the swollen places of the dairy goats, and thought to himself, it was not an option to go on like this.

   It hurts to watch.

  Since this is the case, the things that I originally planned to wait until the establishment of my own sheepfold will undoubtedly have to be done in advance.

  Leaving his mother-in-law's house, Wang Tianxiao rode directly to the city.

   Didn't look much, and came directly to the most prosperous elephant hotel.

  He is going to buy a store here.

   Start serving fresh milk.

   This is the development route that Wang Tianxiao had long thought of.

  He helped Zhang Wenyuan develop real estate, and he just wanted a share of it.

   As for himself, he is ready to develop agricultural products, breeding and medicine.

At present, there are already 2,000 mu of medicine fields for medicines, which can be temporarily used as a stepping stone to enter this industry, and gradually develop from two types to multiple types, from planting to production and processing, and the final goal is to see if the production of traditional Chinese medicine can be established. enterprise.

   It can also be regarded as promoting Chinese medicine.

  In the breeding industry, he plans to start with sheep, which has the least risk and is the easiest to achieve results.

   Wait for the number of sheep to stabilize to two or three thousand, and then concentrate on developing other types such as deer and wild boar.

  Backed against the Meridian Ridge Mountain, the rich resources are his biggest reliance, and many wastelands near the mountain are not developed yet, if necessary, they can be contracted at the least cost.

   This is also a kind of information gap.

  Everyone has just been allocated their own land, and they have no idea about contracting a lot of public property.

  As for those village cadres, even township cadres, many people also have little knowledge, and naturally they don't realize that the land will be valuable, so they will contract it out at a very cheap price, which happens to be taken advantage of by Wang Tianxiao.

  He has no money and energy now, otherwise he would not only contract the wasteland next to the third team, but also go to Mijia Village, Xialiu Village, and even Zhaojia Village next door to contract.

  Anyway, it is wasteland, which is used to grow alfalfa or grass, which are good things for raising livestock.

  Wang Tianxiao always felt a sense of urgency after returning to this world.

  He himself couldn't say why.

   He was always in a hurry and wanted to push things forward quickly, as if someone was chasing him with a whip behind him.

   It just confirms the lyrics: Where did the time go.

  He couldn't live a leisurely and carefree life.

   Every second of leisure is like a waste of time.

  Wang Tianxiao has thought about this for a long time. If he wants to raise sheep, there must be only two ways: mutton and goat milk.

   Mutton seems to be eaten by many people, but it cannot be industrialized.

   That is, it cannot become bigger and stronger.

  He has no way to make mutton into a brand that can be delivered to all parts of the country.

  People eat mutton, mostly because they like freshly killed sheep.

  Although it can be eaten after freezing, it still lacks some flavor.

   But goat milk is different.

  Goat milk can not only provide fresh milk, but also can be made into milk powder.

  In fact, for many people, there is no difference between goat milk and cow's milk. The reason why people are used to eating milk powder is that the production of milk powder is higher, so the price is relatively relatively low.

  Once a habit is formed, it is very difficult to break it.

  However, if goat milk is directly put into everyone's mouth before everyone likes milk, or even before milk appears, then people will gradually get used to goat milk, and there will be no such thing as milk.

  Many times, the reason why a product appears is probably not because users need it, but because merchants only sell this type of product, and users are gradually domesticated.

  Others can, why can't he.

  At least he will still supply goods with conscience, and will not be short of weight and cheat users.

  Elephant Hotel is basically in the city center, named because there is an elephant sculpture in the city center.

  Before Zhang Wenyuan got up at the Wenyuan Hotel, the Elephant Hotel was the best hotel in Qingcheng. People from outside came to Qingcheng to do business, or the government entertained guests, and they would arrange to stay in the Elephant Hotel.

  Even now, the business of the hotel is still very good.

   Surrounding the Elephant Hotel, the core area of ​​the city is formed around it. The flow of people is very large, and it is the first choice for doing business.

  Wang Tianxiao has been optimistic about this place for a long time. He originally planned to wait until after the autumn harvest, when his own herbs are sold, and he will have money, and then he will buy the shop.

   It's too late to see now.

   Just go ahead and talk about the price.

   This is a wholesale match shop.

  Matches were really important in the early years, because people needed matches whether they were lighting lamps or lighting fires.

   Therefore, the consumption is very large.

  But with the increasing popularity of electric lights, people use a lot less matches, and lighters came out later, which robbed some of the match market.

   It turned out that this shop was bustling, but now it has become deserted.

  When Wang Tianxiao entered, a middle-aged man was sleeping on a recliner with a white towel or handkerchief covering his face. He might have slept too soundly. Wang Tianxiao entered, but he didn't even notice.

   "Excuse me." Wang Tianxiao shouted while standing at the door.

  The man still didn't move.

  The shop seemed very quiet.

  It is in stark contrast to the busy city outside.

  Wang Tianxiao thought, if this was put in the wild, people would think it was a dead body.

   Only when a person dies and is placed in a coffin, will the face be covered with a white paper.

   "Hi, I'm here to see the store."

  He raised his voice this time.

  The man finally moved.

  He stretched out his hand to remove the white cloth on his face, raised his head and looked at Wang Tianxiao backwards, then sat up and turned around and asked, "Thirty thousand."

"What?"

   "Aren't you going to buy a store, the price is 30,000 yuan."

  Wang Tianxiao smiled, walked to him, and sat down on the small bench next to him, "Brother, I'm not joking, I really want to buy your shop, please give me a good price."

   "It's too expensive, then go to another place to see."

   "Brother, look, our shop is about 30 to 40 square meters in total, and it hasn't been well decorated. Thirty thousand is really too expensive. One square meter is worth one thousand."

  The middle-aged man froze for a moment, and waved his hand: "What about 2,300 yuan, it's a one-off price, 30,000 yuan, if you want it, I'll sell it to you, if you don't want it, just go to the back door, just turn around and leave."

  Yo, still a stubborn temper.

  Wang Tianxiao is not in a hurry.

   It’s about business, that’s how it is, he asks the price, and he pays the money himself.

   "Brother, look, our store is really not big..."

   "What nonsense are you talking about? It doesn't matter. I'm the shop. I'll buy it now. I won't bargain with you. If you don't want it, don't disturb my sleep."

  Emotions are really a one-off price.

  Wang Tianxiao was in a bit of a dilemma. It wasn't that he didn't have 30,000 yuan, and it wasn't that this shop really lost money after buying 30,000 yuan.

  According to the later housing prices, this place is really expensive, and the back of this store can sell for at least more than one million.

   But the problem is that the price he sells now is indeed a bit high.

  Under normal circumstances, its price is about 15,000 to 20,000.

   Just when he was in a dilemma, two young men suddenly came in at the door, and they looked like ordinary people in their clothes.

  After the two came in, they saw the owner on the chair at a glance, walked over, and pulled the owner up from his seat, "Boss Wu, do you still have the heart to sleep?"

   "You really have a big heart."

  At first, Wang Tianxiao was sitting next to the shopkeeper, but the two young men grabbed the shopkeeper by the collar and dragged him out, their legs naturally hit Wang Tianxiao.

   But he didn't get up to see what was going on.

  Don't look at the shopkeeper being very rude to him, but when he saw the two young men, he immediately changed his tone, "You two brothers, I'm already thinking of a way, let's give it a few days."

"Snapped!"

  Being cold, the shopkeeper was slapped on the head.

   "It's a shame for you, isn't it, a few days of grace, why don't you say a few years of grace. It's a few days, you count the days with me?"

"That's right, it's been a **** few times, I think you just don't want to pay back. Well, according to the old rules, we don't need money. One finger is three thousand, and you happen to have ten fingers. I'll chop them off and take them away." How about two cleansing?"

   "No, just give me a few more days, just a few days..."

   "About your mother!"

  The young man didn't give the shopkeeper a chance, and suddenly pulled out a machete with the same end from his arms, "Come, hold his hand."

   "Okay." Another young man came over and grabbed the owner's hand.

   "Don't...don't, it's not like I won't pay it back, give me another chance."

   "Opportunity, how many opportunities have I given you, but you are useless," the young man pulled his hand away, and pressed against the edge of the chair, waiting for his companion to strike the knife.

"ah!!"

   Before the knife fell, the shopkeeper screamed desperately in fright.

"etc."

  Wang Tianxiao couldn't stand it anymore.

  I still want to sell goat milk here, if it is blood-stained, how can I use it.

   And he really didn't want the shopkeeper to be hurt like this.

Too cruel.

  Actually, when two punk-like people came in, they noticed Wang Tianxiao standing on the side.

  But Wang Tianxiao doesn't look badly dressed, he is tall and strong, he doesn't look like the kind of person who can handle it easily.

  So he ignored it, with the attitude of not violating the water in the well.

   Now that Wang Tianxiao has spoken, they can't pretend they didn't hear it.

  The man holding the knife looked gloomy, and raised the knife to point at Wang Tianxiao, "Which onion are you, what are you talking about? What's the matter, are you going to show him off?"

   "Are you tired of working?" Another person also sneered.

  Wang Tianxiao smiled slightly.

"Two brothers, can you not do anything for now. You are looking for his shopkeeper only because of money. You can talk about money. What if you really cut off your fingers? You can't even fry half a plate of stir-fried vegetables, and you don't like cold salad. few."

   "What the fuck?"

   "Well, don't worry, let's talk about another solution. I want to ask, why and how much does the shopkeeper owe you?"

   "What's the matter? You want to help him pay back the money?"

  The young gangster became a little interested. He took a look at Wang Tianxiao and felt that Wang Tianxiao looked a bit like a rich man.

   "Let's take a look first, so, what kind of debt is it?"

   "Don't worry about this, you just need to know that he owes us 30,000 yuan, if you really want to help him pay it back, just give me 30,000 yuan."

"Wait, wait, if you really want to solve the problem, let's talk about it. I don't think your boss really wants you to take a few fingers back. If you still have this attitude, then I will leave now , you can do whatever you want."

  The two young gangsters were stunned and looked at each other. The one with the knife briefly explained the reason.

  Wang Tianxiao was indifferent after hearing this.

   Sure enough, it was a gambling debt.

   This kind of thing is very common no matter what era, when people with a little money are targeted, those people can always find some way to make people fall for it.

   Obviously this shopkeeper is the victim.

  After listening to the brief introduction, Wang Tianxiao walked over and said to the young man holding the knife, "Can you come out, let's talk about something."

   "What are you talking about, you can't do it here?"

   "I think it's better to go out, just outside the door."

   The gangster hesitated, put the knife back into his arms, and followed Wang Tianxiao to the door.

  Outside the car, people are coming and going.

   The gangster put a cigarette in his mouth, lit it, took a puff, and asked arrogantly: "What do you want to say, hurry up."

  Wang Tianxiao said with a smile: "Did you know that the public security has severely cracked down on your behavior recently?"

"You just want to tell me this?" The gangster sneered, "What's the matter, can they really catch me, not to mention, even if they catch me, they can be locked up for a few days, we are not alone I advise you to take care of things if you have the ability, and leave if you don’t have the ability, so as not to get ashes that shouldn’t get on your ass.”

   "Do you know Wang Tianzhong?" Wang Tianxiao asked suddenly.

  Hearing this name, the gangster was taken aback, his face obviously a little unnatural.

   "What are you talking about him for?"

   "Oh, he's my brother."

   "?"

  The young gangster was stunned, looking at Wang Tianxiao's eyes, full of ignorant doubts, he really wanted to ask Wang Tianxiao, why are you telling me this, but he didn't dare to say it.

  No matter how powerful the gangster is, he will not confront the police head-on and have conflicts unless it is absolutely necessary.

  If the public security forces are mobilized, all gangsters will be paper tigers.

  Wang Tianzhong's name is definitely not an ordinary name in the hearts of gangsters in Qingcheng.

  The deputy director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau in charge of criminal investigation is almost a sharp sword hanging over the heads of these punks.

   Just watch him fall down at any time.

  So, no matter how courageous they are, they dare not resist directly.

  But the problem is...

  Right now, this person just said it casually, whether he was using Wang Tianzhong's banner to make up for it. In fact, he has nothing to do with Wang Tianzhong.

   "You don't believe me, do you want us to go to the Public Security Bureau and ask?" Wang Tianxiao was not in a hurry, and asked with a smile, very politely.

   "Why are you telling me this, and what are you thinking? Don't you care about the consequences if you intervene in this kind of thing?"

  Although the young man was a little shy, he still tried his best to maintain a certain power, and he was unwilling to simply bow his head.
