Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 1984, it's time for the Chinese New Year

In the cold wind, the teams returning to their hometowns are sweating profusely, each carrying a heavy burden, with nostalgia for their hometown and the motivation to go home, and they continue to take firm steps Go to your hometown.

Such scenes happened in all parts of Sichuan. The roads leading to Chengdu are full of pedestrians, all of whom are returning home. Everyone brings heavy salutes and New Year’s goods, and rushes back to their hometown despite hardships and wind and cold. hometown.

The annual Spring Festival is the most important and grand day for Ming people, and no matter what, they have to go home and reunite with their families.

Time is passing by slowly, the distance is constantly shortening, and when everyone is getting closer to home, not only is the whole body not tired, but they are getting more and more excited and excited.

When they saw the familiar scene, they were all very excited, as if the fatigue of the whole body had disappeared, and the pace quickened, wishing to return to their home immediately.

Here in Weijia Village.

The four brothers of the Wei family rode their bicycles back to the village early.

"Hi, sir~"

"Hi aunt~"

"Hello Third Uncle, Hello Fourth Aunt~"

When meeting acquaintances, it is natural to say hello.

"Hey, Wei Tie, Wei Huo, are you back?"

When the villagers saw it, they quickly asked questions, and after a lot of careful research, the four Jian brothers all dressed like dogs, and even their daughters-in-law were all dressed up in fancy dresses. It's completely different, and looks much prettier.

When they saw the bicycles the four were riding, they also asked curiously.

"What is this?"

"This is a bicycle, use it to drive, it's very fast."

"Really, do you need a lot of money?"

"That's 25 taels of silver!"

"My dear, 25 taels of silver, it's too expensive, it's made of gold, why so expensive?"

The villagers couldn't help but exclaimed when they heard it.

For the people living in the village, they don't see a few copper plates throughout the year, let alone a lot of silver. The 25 taels of silver is simply a sky-high price.

"It's okay, the main reason is that the journey home is quite long, and the walking is too tiring, so I bought a bicycle and hurried on the road."

"By the way, Tie Wazi, Kuguazi, and Manzitou are all behind. They have already arrived in the town and will be home soon. They have all made a lot of money this year, and each of them has made at least a few dollars. Ten taels of silver are all ready to build a new house."

The Wei Tie brothers also replied with a smile.

"Really?"

"They all made money too?"

Upon hearing this, the villagers immediately asked in surprise.

"Of course, they all followed me on the construction site. I don't know how much money I took. I sent them all, and I brought back a lot of good things for you."

Wei Tie said with a smile.

"That's great."

"I really want to thank you for taking everyone to make a fortune."

"You don't have to thank me, you don't have to thank me, it's all earned by my own hard work and sweat."

The four brothers who returned to the village early also quickly became the focus of the village, and a large number of villagers soon gathered in the newly built new house.

People looked at the four brothers with envious eyes, and then the parents asked short questions.

"The houses in the city are worth 600 taels of silver? How long will it take to earn so much silver?"

"It won't take long, your lame head has earned almost the same amount this year, and he can buy a house in the city after working for a few years. He has already said that when he returns home this time, he will turn over the old house first. Build a new house like mine, and buy a house in the city in two years."

"Earn this amount?"

"What about the third child?"

"San Wazi also has this number, the wages are about the same, and they all work hard. They work hard, so naturally they won't treat us badly."

"Let me just say, if he's just as idle and unprogressive as before, I'll beat him to death."

"Third Uncle, Sanwazi is diligent now, and he is the most active in doing things. I think it is mainly because he didn't have much motivation and enthusiasm to do things at home before. You, now hurry up and find a matchmaker to tell him about the marriage. Before the New Year The daughter-in-law is married, and next year they can go to work together in the city. In the textile factory in this city, the female workers can earn 4 taels of silver a month, and some are diligent and can even earn 5 taels or 6 taels of silver."

"Really? Can this woman also go to the city to work?"

"Of course, women can also make money, not a lot."

"Brother Wei Tie, can you take me out next year?"

"You, you are still too young. You are only twelve years old. You are too young. You should read more books at home."

"Wei Tie, look at me, if I go to work in the city at my age, will anyone ask for it? It's enough to have two or three taels of silver. It doesn't matter if it's tired or dirty."

"Fourth grandpa, I'm afraid it's hard to find something to do at your age. It's better to enjoy the happiness at home and let the young people go out and earn more."

"Come on, come on, guys, try this raisin, it's a raisin from the Western Regions."

In the home of the Wei family brothers, everyone was eating melon seeds and raisins and chatting constantly.

In the afternoon and evening, the people who went out to work in Weijia Village finally arrived in Weijia Village, and all of a sudden, the whole Weijia Village became very lively.

Everyone gathered around these migrant workers and asked questions curiously. Someone in the family went out to work and was very happy to see their son come back.

Especially when they saw a large number of new year's goods they brought back, they laughed from ear to ear.

Then they quietly asked about this year's harvest, and after getting affirmation, they all smiled and raised their heads high, as if they wanted to vent out the anger that had been suppressed in their hearts for many years.

The whole village was full of smiles, and it was also full of everyone's voices.

"My third child is doing well this year. Seeing that he looks like a dog now, I want to see who is saying that he is not good enough. This year, I must make a good marriage with him."

"Isn't it? Look at San Wazi's body, he looks just like Brother Young Master."

"The lame head is not bad, there are so many things brought back."

"It's okay, it's okay~"

Everyone was very happy. After worrying about it for a year, they were finally happy to see their relatives earn a lot of money back safely.

As for those who did not go to the city to work with Wei Tie, all of them had red eyes, envy and hatred in their hearts, and hated themselves for not going out to work with Wei Tie at the beginning of the year. They shouted.

Look at those people, they are the focus of attention wherever they go, and look at myself, I can only curl up uselessly, being scolded by my parents and wife at home, completely forgetting that I wanted to go out at the beginning of the year, They are against it too.

Those who went out to work, all turned over, and clamored to demolish the old house and build a new one when they returned home, and they all walked around, for fear that others would not know that they had made money.

"After the new year, I will also go out to work, and I won't come back until I make money!"

Many people have secretly made up their minds that if they don't go out to work, it seems that they won't be able to do it.

The income of staying at home and farming is too low. It can only be said that you can’t die of hunger, but if you want to have a lot of money in your hands to build a new house, marry a wife, buy new clothes, and buy things like them, that’s too much. Difficult.

The income gap is too great, and more and more people want to go out.

Last year, everyone thought that the money in the city was not so profitable. This time, dozens of people in the village went out to earn money. Everyone finally believed that money can be made in the city. When you get rich, when you get rich.

When you are still a pauper, you will naturally follow suit.

On the other side, Xiong Yazi's Xiongjia Village.

In Xiongjia Village, only Xiong Yazi and his wife went out to work this year. The others are still the same as before, farming in their hometown and living exactly the same life for thousands of years.

When Xiong Yazi returned to the village with a heavy burden, he wore brand new clothes and shoes, and brought home a load of New Year’s goods. Xiong Yazi’s children wore new clothes, new shoes, and their pockets were filled with snacks brought back from Chengdu. Immediately, the children in the whole village were extremely envious.

As for the adults, they also came to Xiong Yazi's house one after another, and the parents asked short questions, and it sounded like they were playing.

"Xiong Yazi, you have earned a lot of money this year, right?"

"It's not much, it's not much, it's just a meal~"

Xiong Yazi is very spirited and knows how to be modest.

"How much silver can you make a month?"

"It's just a few taels of silver."

But soon he also exposed his income from other aspects. There is no way, everyone is like this, good face, strong vanity.

"A few taels of silver a month, don't we need dozens of taels of silver this year?"

When the many villagers heard this, they were all stunned. Is the money in this city so easy to earn?
Does this feel like picking up money?

"It's okay, it's okay, I've made some money, but it's also very tiring. They are all working on the construction site and swearing."

"It's not tiring. Farming at home is just as tiring."

"Xiong, can you take me outside after the Chinese New Year?"

"Yeah, yeah, take your cousin out together, don't say how much you earn, it's enough to earn more than a dozen taels of silver this year, and you'll have money to build a new house."

"That's right, let's take the big guys out together, they are all from the same village."

"Let's talk about it after the Chinese New Year. When the Chinese New Year is over, let's see if there are still people from my cousin."

Xiong Yazi is putting on a fork, while Yang Dawa on the other side is challenging the heavy burden and dares to go to Yangjiaba, his home. The rugged mountain road makes him happier and happier as he walks, and he can't wait to get home soon.
