Chapter 156 Mansion

The youngest Wang moved very skillfully, started the car, and turned onto the highway.

"Young maknae, where did this car come from?" Zhou Zhi asked, "How did you get this business?"

"The owner of a Xishui restaurant came to the restaurant for dinner. When he mentioned that there was a shortage of truck drivers, I had some skills, so I recommended him myself."

"Well, one dares to speak up, and the other dares to get out of the way."

"What do you mean?! I drove so well!"

"No matter how good you are at driving, you still can't withstand the 300-mile downhill climb from Xishui!"

"Eh? Cousin, how do you know?"

"I also know that overloading is normal in your industry. It's normal for me to double the load. It's easy to make money, but the brake pads need to be changed frequently! Even if the boss is reluctant, you have to pay for it yourself and check it before every trip...

…”

"It's that serious..."

"It's really that serious!" Zhou Zhi said a rare curse word, which frightened the girls behind him who were chatting and laughing just now into silence.

The girls' reaction also reflected on the youngest Wang, who was also frightened: "Yao...Cousin, don't be angry..."

"I'm not angry." Zhou Zhi calmed down: "Young man, think about it, this thing is pulling more than ten tons of coal and rushing down from Loushanguan. What if the brakes fail midway?"

"Don't think that I don't know the fuel-saving tricks that experienced drivers teach you, such as shifting into neutral, right? Saving fuel is great for a while, but it's troublesome when you need to brake."

"Money must not only be earned with a life, but money must be spent with a life! On that road, how many big cars are not scrapped every year?!"

"Okay, I'll check it out soon!"

This young cousin from my cousin's house in the city listened to his grandpa's singing about music from heaven and stars coming down to earth. He was also included in the movie theaters organized by the village a few years ago. He looked amazing on TV.

Now that Zhou Zhiyi is putting on a show, Wang Lao Ma immediately feels a lot of pressure.

In fact, Zhou Zhi is a little confused about how he and the Wang family in Baimi Township are cousins, but there is no doubt that his father has a very good relationship with the Wang family.

The tomb of Zhou Zhi's grandfather is right next to the vegetable field of the Wang family, and it is usually looked after by the fourth cousin of the Wang family. When he was a child, after hanging the grave during the Qingming Festival and Spring Festival, Zhou Zhi's family would rest at the fourth cousin's house and bother others for a few meals.

My fourth cousin's children's branch here needs Dad's help for something, and Dad is also very enthusiastic about helping.

Usually it was to find a part-time job for the children, to pay for the chemical fertilizers needed to grow rice every year, and to make some every year when sugar soap was in short supply.

There are also major holidays such as the Spring Festival and Dragon Boat Festival. The Wang family will go to the city to play and usually have meals at Zhou Zhi's house.

The first time we received the youngest Wangs, Zhou Zhi brought out a plate of White Rabbit toffees. When he turned around and looked back, he found that the plate was empty. Several children grabbed the candies and put them into their pockets.

Zhou Zhi was stunned.

So he went into the house and brought out a plate of marshmallows and a plate of nougat. He wanted to see how much the children's clothes pockets could hold.

Who would have thought that the little kid who snatched candy in his pocket back then would be as successful as he is now.

Wang Laoyao and Zhou Zhi didn't hide it, they even showed off a bit and said everything.

Now is the time when coal is in short supply. Pulling coal from Guizhou is an absolutely high salary. The boss pays fifty for pulling a truck, and also gives twenty for cigarettes, tea and meals. Of course, the premise is that an eight-ton truck pulls sixteen tons. It is crazy, even

Dare to pull more than 20 tons!

The three hundred miles from Xishui to Jiachuan, except for a few crazy people, usually make two trips in three or four days, and the harvest is six to seven hundred yuan a month, which is far more than most people in the county.

But there is a strange phenomenon, that is, among the first batch of high-income people in Jiachuan, very few people eventually become rich, while many people are disabled, divorced, and end up in poverty.

The truth is actually very simple, that is, things that are relatively easy to obtain are often easier to lose than to gain.

So Zhou Zhi's father got cancer again and told Wang Laoyao to save money and try to buy a shop in Baimi Xiangchang and open a restaurant like Wharf Chicken Soup.

We have also planned a development route and contracted food for the town government, post office, bank savings office and other institutions. It is not a big problem to earn tens of thousands a year.

I heard that the youngest Wang was one head and two older.

Fortunately, Baimi Township was not far away in the first place, and the cart quickly arrived at a farm town. Zhou Zhi and his friends got off the cart, and told Young Wang to say hello to his cousin and come back next time when he has time.

Look at him.

After saying goodbye to the youngest Wang who was in a hurry to inspect the car, Zhou Zhi and Mu Ruyun lifted the beater together, and Yang He led the way home.

I thought there were too many people and I didn't say hello in advance, so it would be better to buy some cooked food and go back first.

The first choice is of course the "Shao Lao", which is the cold braised pork with Sichuan characteristics; a pound of braised beef tendon, this sticky chili noodles is delicious; when I see a few pig trotters with front hooves, I want it; come again

A cold dish mixed with bamboo shoots, dried tofu, bean curd skin, green bamboo shoots and kelp.

There was really nothing to choose from in the butcher shop. There was a piece of milk-preserving meat and half a large intestine left, which Zhou Zhi also bought.

With everything ready, we walked down a stone path to the countryside and walked along the rice fields, woods, and hills in the countryside toward a mountain bay.

Behind the bay is a hill like a steamed bun, with rounded and soft lines, and a thick "wing" at each end. There is a stream in front of it. In the summer, the water in this stream was quite large, but now it is shallow and clear.

Many rocks are exposed at the bottom of the stream.

The scenery along the way is undemanding. In addition to the bamboo forests and flowering reeds beside the stream, there are also moss on the hills and short pines growing on them.

Follow the stone road along the creek, and after bypassing the first wing of the mountain bay, a beautiful countryside is revealed in front of everyone.

"Good Feng Shui!" Zhang Lu, who knew a little about it, couldn't help but praise it when he saw this place.

It is indeed good Feng Shui. Behind it are green hills like steamed buns, protected by a small hill on both sides. In front are streams and a large field bay, with several layers of terraced fields covering dozens of acres.

At the end of the terraces and under the green hills, a standard southern Sichuan folk house is located there.

"Wow! It's really a wealthy family!" Ye Xin had long heard Zhou Zhi bragging about Yang He's home. Now that she finally saw it, she felt that it was so famous that it was better to meet. This big house is really amazing.

Although the layout of the residential buildings is still the general layout of a double-sided open dam in southern Sichuan, it is different from ordinary residential buildings in that a large amount of stone is used for the foundation and waist walls, and the top is the old blue bricks from before liberation.

It was as big as two pieces now.

The exterior of the blue brick wall is covered with chalk, which has peeled off in some places over time. When the blue bricks are exposed, it gives it a more aged feel.

The Guangzhengtang has five bays and seven bays, and the side rooms on both sides have three bays and seven bays respectively, using the "double melon pillar" structure.

The roof is of a "hanging mountain type", made into a concave curved surface, with elegant and smooth lines, and is conducive to rainwater drainage.

The roof tiles are laid in the "cold tile" style, and the roof is "built with exposed roof", with overhanging eaves and protruding purlins, all of which are standard southern Sichuan style.

In addition to the architectural layout, the rest is a large number of decorations, flower windows, stone carvings, brick carvings, wood carvings, colored paints, and various traditional Chinese decorative styles, which can be seen here.
