Seventy Buddha Cannon Fodder

Gu Mingdong was holding a large bucket of pig food, which was used as an extra meal for a few big fat pigs at night. After more than half a year, the original little piglets have turned into big piglets, and the appearance of not having enough to eat makes people feel uncomfortable. like.

Every time when feeding pigs, Gu Mingdong felt that what he was feeding was not pigs, but walking braised pork.

Being grabbed by Zheng Tong and talking for a while, Gu Mingdong didn't understand why, so he asked, "When did I let you take the blame?"

Zheng Tong snorted and pointed at the field in Shanghe Village.

Gu Mingdong guessed something and raised his eyebrows slightly.

Zheng Tong stroked his beard, and put on a posture that was as expected: "You are lucky this time, the surname Hong made a mistake, and thought these were all written by the old man."

Gu Mingdong said with a smile: "Professor Hong is from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, he doesn't believe in science but in metaphysics?"

He was still wondering why Professor Hong gave up suddenly and left Shanghe Village without saying a word. The relationship problem was here.

For a while, Gu Mingdong felt funny in his heart, and felt that all this was too oolong, which made him dumbfounded.

Zheng Tong snorted coldly: "Although everyone is shouting to break the feudal superstition now, who can tell the truth about Fengshui, let alone what I saw with my own eyes when I was a child."

"He has been working on the production team for so long, but he can't figure out why. He either suspects that the knowledge he has learned is wrong, or relies on the results on mysterious things. It's not strange."

The most important thing is that Professor Hong had seen the power of Zheng Tong when he was a child, so there was such a big misunderstanding.

When Gu Mingdong heard this, he was relieved in his heart. He was really afraid that Professor Hong would keep pestering him, and then he would kill another carbine and bring a large number of people over to make a fuss that would not end.

Now it seems that he thinks too much. If Professor Hong sums up the cause of the abnormality in Shanghe Village to Zheng Tong, then he will never come here in the future, and maybe he can help cover it up.

This is a pleasant surprise.

Zheng Tong said again: "Brat, how long have you been studying, and what method did you use to increase the yield in the field?"

Gu Mingdong is not very interested in Fengshui. Although he occasionally asks him for advice, it is only half-baked so far.

Zheng Tong was also a farmer who had never farmed since he was a child. Before the production team had a good harvest, he was only happy. Before Professor Hong exposed it, Zheng Tong had no idea that there was Gu Mingdong's handwriting in the good harvest.

This is exactly what puzzled Zheng Tong. During the day, Zheng Tong deliberately went around the production team, and he didn't see the way out.

Could it be that in just a few years, this stinky boy has become better than blue?

If this is the case, Zheng Tong can only lament that Gu Mingdong was born at the wrong time, a good genius was buried and became a farmer.

Gu Mingdong raised his eyebrows, and asked with a smile: "Mr. Zheng, you are a master of Fengshui, can't even you see it?"

Zheng Tong pondered: "Shanghe Village is surrounded by mountains and rivers. If you look closely at the mountains and rivers, it is indeed a land of crouching tigers, hidden dragons, and long streams."

"It may be that our production team's feng shui is too good, so there will be a good harvest..."

Before Gu Mingdong finished speaking, Zheng Tong frowned and said, "But other than this time, I don't see anything special."

"To tell you the truth, after the Republic of China, the great clan prospered, and industrial production destroyed the mountains and rivers, so many ancient methods can no longer be accurate."

"I really can't see which Fengshui treasure point can have such a magical effect."

He looked at Gu Mingdong and said faintly: "Furthermore, if Feng Shui is really so powerful, throughout the ages, there will never be the tragedy of famine and starvation."

"So the old man is very curious, what did you do?"

Naturally, Gu Mingdong would not tell him the truth, and only said a plausible sentence: "Thank you for the relic, old man, it is so wonderful."

After speaking, he imitated Zheng Tong, maintaining an inscrutable smile, which made the latter puzzled.

When it came time, Gu Mingdong fed the pigs directly, and left without saying much.

Zheng Tong, who was left behind, frowned, shook his head, and said, "It shouldn't be, how can relics have such a magical effect."

Looking at Gu Mingdong's back, Zheng Tong shook his head, without getting to the bottom of it, he muttered in his heart: "Could it be the ability of a different soul, and a different soul has this effect?"

Then he shook his head and denied it. If the supernatural ability has this ability, why since ancient times, all mysteries have to be killed when encountering a strange soul. Wouldn't it be more beneficial to keep it?

Little did he know that his unconstrained speculation was also approaching the truth in a disguised form.

Suddenly, Zheng Tong slapped his head: "I was fooled again, this brat didn't have a word of truth in his mouth."

After Professor Hong left, Shanghe Village returned to calm, and even Gu Jianguo heaved a sigh of relief.

In private, Gu Jianguo said to his eldest nephew: "Although Professor Hong speaks very kindly, he is a well-educated man. I always feel uncomfortable living at home."

At the end, he took out the method that Professor Hong asked for advice: "Can you see if these can be used?"

Gu Mingdong glanced at it, and knew that Professor Hong still had some skills, and Wu Wei also had knowledge, but his knowledge was brought in from abroad, and his experience had not been localized, so it was always somewhat inappropriate to use.

However, the valuable experience left by Professor Hong has been practiced locally and optimized again and again, and finally the most suitable method for China's land is selected.

"We will plant according to this new method next year." Gu Mingdong said.

Gu Jianguo smiled with satisfaction, and said in a low voice: "Professor Hong left a message before leaving, saying that Wu Wei, who was sent down to our production team, has some real skills in his belly, let me take care of it."

After finishing speaking, he glared at his elder nephew again: "Did you ask him about the methods you wrote before?"

Gu Mingdong nodded and admitted.

Gu Jianguo scolded: "You brat is too courageous. If someone else finds out about this, you won't be allowed to go online."

"Fortunately, the final result is good. If someone finds out, they can say good or bad."

Fortunately, this matter has been reported now, and no one will talk about it in the future.

Gu Jianguo sighed and said: "On the surface, they are still sent down, and they cannot be given special care, but they can distribute a little more food."

With Gu Jianguo's care, the four people living in the thatched cottage must have a much easier life in the future.

However, this matter still reminded Gu Mingdong that even though the supernatural ability is invisible and invisible to others, if he wants to change Shanghecun by relying on his supernatural ability, it will be a matter of time before he reveals his secrets.

It's okay to eat and drink at home. The larger the scope of influence, the easier it is to be discovered. Like this time, a large army was attracted. Fortunately, there was Zheng Tong, a cheating tool, and an oolong was fooled.

This era is far more sensitive and dangerous than Gu Mingdong thought.

Gu Mingdong never underestimated the power of the country, but the life in Shanghe Village was too leisurely, so that he gradually began to be careless.

He didn't want to be caught as an outlier. Before the popularization of hybrid rice, the optimization of grain varieties could only stay at the current level.

It was already autumn when Professor Hong left, but this year the autumn tigers are particularly fierce, and people are sweating profusely from the sun after autumn.

After work every day, after eating, it became the custom of Gu Ming's family to move a stool to sit under the eaves to enjoy the cool, and eat a big cold watermelon by the way.

There is no place to spend supernatural powers, Gu Mingdong has become more meticulous in packing his rations, not to mention the vegetable garden in the backyard, and even the taste of watermelon in the mountain stream has improved to a higher level.

A mouthful of iced watermelon is eaten, and the heat dissipates a lot.

Suddenly, Gu Laoer's bluffing voice came from outside: "Is there any watermelon, get me a piece."

Without Gu Mingdong getting up, Gu Liangchen ran into the house and came out with a big piece of watermelon: "Second Uncle, this is specially reserved for you."

The second brother Gu took it and just took a bite, and said with a smile: "Our Ah Chen is the most sensible."

Gu Liangxing stood up and asked, "Second Uncle, am I not sensible?"

"You, what you eat is not enough, what you do is not enough, do you want me to tell you?" Second brother Gu hit.

Gu Liangxing was not angry either, and said with a puffy stomach: "Three aunts and four aunts have said that I am very much like your second uncle, and my younger brother is like my father. If you say that about you, then you will eat whatever you want and do whatever you want." no."

Gu Erdi laughed, and stretched out his hand to pinch his chubby cheek: "I don't know anything else, but your mouth is like mine, sharp."

Two or three bites settled a large piece of watermelon, Gu Erdi took out a ticket from his pocket, and slapped it on the table of the Eight Immortals: "Come and see what this is!"

Gu Liangxing tilted his head and read: "What kind of car..."

"Usually I told you to study hard and you don't read, are you dumbfounded now?" Second brother Gu cursed with a smile.

Gu Liangchen looked at it and exclaimed, "Bicycle ticket?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Mingdong also got up and came over to look, and even the Gu family sisters in the room also came out.

Even Gu Yun put her feet up and poked her head out to look at the table in surprise.

I saw Gu's second brother triumphant, and there was a red ticket with a white background on the table, which actually said one, and it was marked with a bicycle ticket for Daishan City.

Gu Mingdong was also a little surprised.

Before that, the second younger brother Gu and the third younger sister Gu both became workers and had to work in the town every day. It was too troublesome to walk back and forth on two legs, not to mention wasting time, and several pairs of these shoes were worn out.

Gu Mingdong thought at that time that it would be much more convenient to have a bicycle at home.

But after inquiring, I found out that bicycles are rare these days, and Sun Qiang's one was left by Yan Hai, and it was not Yan Hai's own, but the bicycle ticket allocated by his parents.

Units in the town sometimes only get a few bicycle tickets a year, usually only the leaders in the factory or model workers can be allocated, and others can only look at it greedily.

At this time, three revolutions and one sound have not yet become fashionable, and supplies are too scarce. If anyone has a bicycle, the effect will definitely be more sensational than driving a Ferrari in modern times.

At least the entire production team in Shanghe Village couldn't find one. Before Gu's second brother was injured, Sun Qiang felt sorry for his cousin and lent him the bicycle for a while, which led to a series of troubles.

So Gu Mingdong thought about it, and temporarily put the plan of buying a car on hold.

Even if he had a way to get the money and tickets, how could he explain it to the outside world? This cannot be fooled casually.

Who would have thought that Gu Mingnan would bring a big surprise today.

He said triumphantly, "Didn't expect me to get this?"

Gu Sanmei was also very surprised. She took the ticket and looked left and right, both surprised and happy: "It's not surprising that the transportation team can have bicycle tickets, but how could it be your turn?"

Gu Erdi was not happy: "Why can't it be my turn? I broke my arm for the collective."

"How long have you been in the transportation team, and it hasn't been a year since you became a full-time member. Even if you made outstanding contributions, it won't be your turn." Gu Sanmei said.

Nowadays, the factory likes to rank seniority based on seniority, good things depend on the length of service, such a big good thing as a bicycle ticket, how can it be the turn of a newcomer like Gu Laoer.

Gu Mingdong also felt strange, and asked, "How did you get here?"

Suddenly, he stared at his younger brother and asked, "Could it be that Master Qian gave it to you?"

After saying this, Gu Sanmei also looked at the second child, thinking in her heart that it is really possible, Master Qian is an old employee, and he must be able to get a number in terms of seniority, and maybe he will be able to get a bicycle ticket.

Thinking about it again, if the second child took someone else's bicycle ticket, wouldn't he sell himself for a ticket?

Gu Sanmei suddenly became entangled. Although the bicycle is good, it seems that it is not good to sell this stupid brother for the bicycle.

Gu Mingnan didn't know his younger sister's wild thoughts, so he said cheerfully, "It's really thanks to Master Qian."

Gu Mingdong couldn't help showing an indescribable expression: "The favor of a bicycle ticket is too great, you should return it."

Gu Mingnan asked strangely, "Why, I bought this with real money, so why should I pay it back?"

"Bought it?" Gu Mingdong was even more surprised.

Gu Mingnan explained: "Yeah, a master in our transportation team was lucky and got a bicycle ticket this time, but he felt that the bicycle was too expensive and he didn't use it much, so he wanted to sell it for money."

"Master Qian knew that I always wanted a bicycle, so he helped me talk about it, and finally it was settled."

After finishing speaking, Gu Mingnan touched his nose in embarrassment, and said in a low voice, "This ticket costs 100 yuan."

"100 yuan?!" Gu Sanmei screamed, glaring at the second child, thinking that it would be better to sell him.

Gu Mingnan quickly said, "I didn't think the opportunity was rare, so I bought it."

She also looked at her elder brother flatteringly: "Brother, I don't have enough money on me. I spent all the salary you asked me to keep, and I paid it in advance for two months to make up for it."

Gu Mingnan was a temporary worker before, and he only got 12 yuan a month, and he paid five yuan to his family every month, and he still had seven yuan left.

After becoming a full-time employee years ago, Gu Mingnan's salary has risen to 22 yuan, which is considered a high-paying job these days. After all, it is like Gu Sanmei's recycle bin. It was only [-] yuan when she was not a full-time employee, but only [-] yuan after she became a full-time employee. The gap is huge.

Gu Mingnan thinks that he is a man, and it is his joint responsibility to make money to support his family, so he insists that his salary has increased, and he will give more to the family. He will hand over ten yuan a month and keep 12 yuan for himself.

But he also learned from his elder brother, spending money a bit extravagantly. Since he went to the transportation team, he has to cut a piece of meat every once in a while and buy some sweets and snacks to take home, so there are actually not many that can be saved. Gu Sanmei saved a lot.

This time he bought a bicycle ticket and spent all his savings, and even apologized to the transportation team for two months' wages.

When Gu Sanmei heard this, her heart was bleeding: "It's so expensive! If you have a ticket, you have to spend money to buy a car. I heard that a car costs 150 yuan, so the total cost of this bicycle is [-] yuan?"

The price of each brand of bicycle is different, but basically it is between 120-150, and the price is not low.

Gu Simei's eyes straightened up when she heard this: "This is too expensive, 250 yuan, which is enough for our family to eat and drink for more than a year."

The most money the twins have ever taken is the New Year's money, a dime, and their eyes widen in shock.

Gu Mingnan's smile froze: "I, I forgot to buy a ticket and have to buy a car."

"Why don't you forget about yourself?" Gu Sanmei said angrily.

Gu Mingnan scratched his hair, and asked again: "Then why don't I go and ask if I can get a refund? In fact, it's okay to walk to work, and we don't usually use bicycles much."

It's too extravagant to exchange two hundred and five for a car.

"A bicycle can be used for many years, it is a hard currency, and it is very tight."

Gu Mingdong said: "Bicycle tickets are hard to come by. It will be difficult to meet someone who is willing to sell them next time. You can still get them out of a hundred and five households. If you buy a car at that time, it will be convenient for the two of you to commute."

Gu Mingxi raised his head and asked: "Brother, really buy it, it costs two hundred and fifty."

At the thought of the number two hundred and five, she bleeds with distress.

Gu Simei is also distressed, but she hasn't started to make money yet, and she has no right to say whether to buy or not, so she just keeps her mouth shut and watches her brothers and sisters discuss.

Gu Mingdong said with a smile: "I originally thought about building a house in the next year, but now I bought a car. Our house will not be able to be built for a while, so we have to save more, but our house is still enough to live in, and we can wait another year." Not too late."

Unexpectedly, Gu Mingxi thought for a while, got up and went into the house, and then came out with a handkerchief in his hand: "Brother, use my money to buy a car. I usually spend a lot with my second child, so I shouldn't let you spend it." money."

She thought from the bottom of her heart that her eldest brother and the children were in the production team, so she and her second child must use this car, so she couldn't ask her elder brother to pay for it.

Besides, Ah Xing and Ah Chen are already growing up, so they can't live in the same house with their elder brother all the time. If they don't build a house, how will their nephews marry their wives in the future.

When I opened the veil, there were bits and pieces of money on it, and the total amount was 120 yuan.

"A total of one hundred and twelve. If it's not enough, I'll ask if I can advance my salary. If not, I'll borrow it from my elder brother first, and then pay it back when my salary is paid next month."

Gu Mingnan exclaimed in surprise: "Third brother, I didn't expect you to be so rich. How could you have so much money?"

"I'm not like you, I know how to spend all day long." Not only does Gu Sanmei not spend money randomly, but she can save up a penny or two of the money she occasionally finds in the trash, and the little things make more money. This huge sum of 120 yuan.

This is all her savings.

Gu Mingnan, who earned a lot and spent a lot, and finally owed the transportation team wages, felt that he was despised.

Gu Mingdong didn't expect his younger sister to take out all his savings. He knew that Gu Sanmei was the one who valued money the most in the family because of her upbringing environment, and she usually took her salary seriously.

Feeling warm in his heart, Gu Mingdong still chose to refuse.

"Keep your money on your own. Whether you want to study by yourself in the future or use it as a dowry, I still have money here."

He paused: "You have been working for almost two years, and the money you pay to your family every month adds up to more than two hundred, which is enough to buy a car."

Gu Sanmei shook her head and refused: "Brother, the purpose of buying a car is for us to go to work. Besides, we pay the money every month, but the whole family has to eat and drink, and the fourth sister and the children have to go to school. It all costs money."

Gu Sanmei values ​​money, but she knows in her heart how her current comfortable life came about, not to mention that after they go to work, her eldest brother is only willing to accept five yuan a month, and let them keep the rest.

Not to mention the countryside, even in the city, there are very few girls who go to work who can earn their own wages.

Based on this point, Gu Sanmei also knew that her eldest brother was really kind to them and would never let them suffer.

Big brother treats them well, so they can't be white-eyed wolves, and Gu Sanmei is even more unwilling to let big brother suffer.

Gu Mingnan also said: "If it wasn't for the elder brother's help to find a way, we wouldn't be able to go to the city to work as workers."

The second brother Gu thought to himself, if the money is not enough, he will pay in advance for a few more months, the left and right tickets are what he wants to buy, and the elder brother can't let his family's money be emptied.

Gu Sanmei stuffed the money: "Brother, if you don't take it, you won't treat us as relatives."

Gu Simei only knew that she nodded in agreement beside her, and secretly decided in her heart that when she was able to go to work and earn money in the future, she had to pay money to her family, otherwise she would be too ignorant.

Gu Mingdong saw that they didn't have the slightest embarrassment, and they sincerely took out the money, so he also smiled: "Okay, younger brothers and sisters can make money, and I, the eldest brother, can enjoy your blessings."

Gu Mingnan laughed and said: "Eldest brother is like a father, so the eldest brother is our own father, and we have to honor you."

Gu Sanmei said again: "Besides, we all have jobs now, so we can save money slowly."

Gu Mingdong looked at the money in the handkerchief, and said with a smile: "With these, it is enough to build a house."

Seeing Gu Mingdong accept the money, Gu Erdi and Gu Sanmei both laughed, happier than they got their salary.

When they heard about buying a car and building a house, the eyes of the children lit up.

Gu Mingdong said with a smile: "Buy a bicycle first, and build a new house when the farm is slack at the end of the year."

Upon hearing this, Gu Mingnan immediately became excited: "I've inquired about it. On the first day of every month, the supply and marketing cooperative in the town only sells bicycles. If you miss it, you have to wait another month."

Gu Mingdong made a decisive decision: "Then let's go tomorrow."

It just so happened that the next day was number one. Looking at the excited children, he added: "Everyone go together and pick a bicycle and come back."

The twins immediately cheered excitedly.

Gu Mingnan carefully put away the bicycle ticket. When he was dreaming that night, he dreamed that he had bought a tall and mighty bicycle and rode it on the country trails. He was envied.

Early the next morning, Gu Mingdong was woken up by the excited twins.

The family ate a absent-minded breakfast, and went out excitedly at dawn.

As a result, when they went to the supply and marketing cooperative to see it, the Gu family was dumbfounded.
