Era: 1979 From mountain man to richest man

Chapter 186 Preparations before the Earthquake

While Song Chaoyang was cooking, Dong Qiushi was also chatting animatedly with Professor Qian and his wife.

Even the "Gourd Little King Kong" in my hand seems to be no longer fragrant now.

The reason is that there are actually two professors here who have not returned to the city.

You must know that they started returning to the city more than two years ago, and there are people in their editorial department who have returned to the city from the countryside.

And their academic qualifications are far lower than these two.

This made Dong Qiushi interested.

You can read the book later. After the story of these two people passed through this village, there would be no such store.

Dong Qiushi's curiosity exploded at this moment.

Professor Qian and his wife were also curious about the changes in the city. They could only read about many things in newspapers.

He was very curious.

Dong Qiushi still has some hero worship in his heart because of his work.

At this time, the gas lamp was lit in the Tang house of the Song family. This lamp, similar in shape to a horse lantern, was given to Qin Rou as a dowry. When lit, it was brighter than ordinary white woven lamps.

So he asked Professor Qian and his wife about Song Chaoyang's situation.

He believed that Song Chaoyang definitely deserved his respect.

Under the light of the gas lamp, many dishes exuded an attractive oily sheen.

The kerosene lamp that was still bright before seemed to have lost its original luster in front of it.

He suddenly became curious about Song Chaoyang.

But this also brought the relationship between the two people closer.

So they started talking about picking them up from Song Chaoyang's house and bringing them back here.

Of course not in the same issue.

The Song family was also very lively tonight.

Chickens, ducks, fish, eels, frogs.

As long as these two return to the city and there are no problems with their political review, they should be reused soon.

After hearing what he said, Professor Qian and his wife said that they should go back soon.

But after listening to what Professor Qian said about Song Chaoyang's heroic deeds, he no longer regarded Song Chaoyang as an excellent writer.

Dong Qiushi didn't expect that Song Chaoyang would still play such a role in this matter.

So the three of them chatted endlessly, and each found the information they wanted to know in each other.

Dong Qiushi didn't drink much, so he just raised his glass to show off his feelings.

……

After chatting for a long time, I discovered that Dong Qiushi and Professor Qian’s wife were in the same elementary school.

This is a brave man, a somewhat legendary man.

He took over all these ingredients and made several hard dishes.

Professor Qian and his wife talked about what Song Chaoyang had done in the past few months, from helping the village grab water to rescuing people and killing tigers at night. Dong Qiushi was stunned for a moment.

"Welcome Comrade Lao Dong to our Qingsong Bay, let me toast you first!" Song Chaoyang picked up the wine glass, stood up and toasted Dong Qiushi with a glass of wine.

This large table was made by Qin Rou, Xu Cuiping, and most of the dishes were made by Song Chaoyang.

Especially how he made his fortune.

Song Chaoyang has contacted Professor Qian's friends, and everything is running smoothly now. After it is completed, not only can they go back, but people like them in this village can also go back to the city.

This time a city dweller from Shanghai came, and now they have too many questions to ask.

As the sun sets in the mountain col, the valley in Qingsong Bay gradually falls into darkness, with only the stars in the sky shining faintly.

Seeing Song Chaoyang toasting him, Dong Qiushi stood up directly, picked up the wine glass with both hands, held it very low, and drank the light wine in one gulp.

Professor Qian and his wife played a big role in this matter and knew a lot.

This thing has rarely been seen before, but this time it was used and hung in the main room of the Song family, directly lighting up the entire room.

Even Song Chaoyang felt that this was a good thing. Before the village had no electricity, it could be used for lighting to achieve the effect of incandescent lamps.

Even in later generations when graduate students are everywhere, it will be considered.

Professors are in short supply across the country these days.

This is respect.

When people look directly into their eyes, they feel stung by the light.

The age difference between the two people lies here.

In the end, Dong Qiushi took the initiative to express his willingness to go back and help them move around and help them get back to the city.

There were fourteen people in total, filling the Song family's large round table.

The things Song Chaoyang did made him a hero in his eyes.

While chatting with Professor Qian and his wife, Song Chaoyang's image continued to rise in Dong Qiushi's mind.

Keep rising.

He thinks he doesn't have this ability.

Totally impossible.

However, after taking this sip of strong wine, Dong Qiushi felt that his head was a little heavy.

His face was also as hot as if it was on fire.

"Come on, come on, eat some food and take your time." Song Chaoyang saw that Dong Qiushi opened his mouth a few times but still didn't say anything. He knew that this man was already drunk after just two ounces of wine.

He quickly put a chopstick of meat into his bowl.

Then he asked others to use their chopsticks.

After Dong Qiushi took two bites, his eyelids began to tremble and his tongue became stiff.

"I can't do it anymore, the alcohol content is too high..." After Dong Qiushi said this, he poured back.

Fortunately, Song Chaoyang had quick eyes and quick hands and held his back.

"Ang..." He opened his mouth, closed his eyes, and started to snore.

The other people at the table couldn't stand this scene.

Originally, this banquet table was prepared for him, but this guy just drank two ounces of wine at the beginning and fell straight away.

If you don’t know how to drink, tell me earlier!
"Editor Dong! Old Dong?" Song Chaoyang shook this person and confirmed that he was fine. He was just drunk and fell asleep. He greeted the others and asked them to continue.

Then he helped Editor Dong to lie down on the bed.

The second brother also came to help at this time, hugged Dong Qiushi directly, and followed Song Chaoyang to send him to the room prepared for him.

"Prepare a bucket here to prevent this person from vomiting on the ground later."

"In addition, I went to the kitchen to simmer chicken soup for him, and woke up in the middle of the night so that he could drink some."

Song Chaoyang looked at Dong Qiushi who was snoring loudly on the bed, and said helplessly to his second brother.

The second brother nodded and went to get the bucket.

Song Chaoyang went to the kitchen and left a clay pot of chicken soup for Lao Dong alone.

After doing all this, the two brothers returned to the dining table in the main room.

At this moment, the table of guests from the Song family officially started dinner.

While eating, Song Chaoyang did not forget to remind Qin Wanshan about the affairs in Yangjiagou, so as not to suffer a loss at night.

Of course, in order to attract Qin Wanshan's attention, he directly said that he heard people from Yangjiagou talking about mobilizing to harvest the millet in Qingsong Bay at night. As expected, Qin Wanshan suddenly took it seriously and stopped drinking the wine that had been poured.

He finished his meal faster than the others, and then went out to inform the young adults in the brigade that one or two people from each family would come out in the evening to prepare for a fight with the people in Yangjiagou.

Qin Tie, who came back with Song Chaoyang, was a little confused. Aren't they two together most of the time today?

When did Song Chaoyang hear this?

Did you hear it yesterday?

Or did you hear it from somewhere else after coming back today?

But it's not easy to ask. Qin Tie still believes that Song Chaoyang will not lie to his father to stay up late.

Moreover, Yangjiagou had already mentioned this after killing the tiger last time.

This is also the time when the crime happened.

So it shouldn't be a problem to be on the defensive.

This is called preparing for a rainy day, and Song Chaoyang seems to have done it many times.

On the other side, Song Chaoyang thought that there would be an earthquake tonight, so he asked his father and mother whether they wanted to sleep in the old house tonight.

The rooms and beds in the new home are actually enough.

But his father Song Shouyi is still willing to sleep in the old house sometimes, because that place has some special meaning to him.

It's just that the earthen wall is crumbling, and it is indeed a dilapidated building.

After asking about it, my father really planned to go there to sleep, but since Song Chaoyang just said that Yangjiagou was coming to steal the grain, he didn't go.

No one knows whether there will be a fight at that time.

There is a little distance between here and there, so if he really starts to take action, he can go over and hold up the scene.

Song Chaoyang was relieved a lot when he heard this.

In the precognitive dream, the place where the earthquake occurred was deep in the mountains. Relatively speaking, it was relatively far away.

As long as you don't go to dangerous buildings, there's really no need to worry.

As for the others, Song Chaoyang could only hope that they would stay awake tonight and not sleep too much.

When the earthquake wave comes, you can run out of the room.

I believe that if Qin Wanshan goes out to inform and prevent Yangjiagou from stealing millet, people will not really sleep too much at night.

As for the cement and red brick houses they have here, there is nothing to worry about.

After finishing dinner and clearing away the dishes, Song Chaoyang said to Cao Wei:

"By the way, you can sleep in Song Yu's room tonight. It's quite late now and you have to walk at night when you go back."

Although the house at the Educated Youth Point is not a dilapidated house, it is an adobe house after all, and there is a hill behind them. Who knows if it will roll down during an earthquake.

It was better to be careful, so Song Chaoyang asked Cao Wei to stay at home.

"The dog at home hasn't been fed yet." Cao Wei was packing the remaining soup and water, planning to take it back to feed the dog.

There is also a mountain dog left by Kong Yun.

Song Chaoyang thought for a while and said to Cao Wei:

"Let me go. The dogs here haven't been fed yet. You prepare food and I'll bring it directly to the dogs."

Hearing what Song Chaoyang said, Cao Wei found it difficult to refuse.

And to be honest, it was either that I had not slept in the Song Chaoyang family's new house before, or during the time when tigers were out and about, the Song Chaoyang family was indeed more comfortable to sleep in than the educated youth.

After agreeing, she gave the key to Song Chaoyang.

Anyway, the mountain dog over there won't bite Song Chaoyang. Although the little thing recognizes the person, it is still quite familiar with Song Chaoyang.

Song Chaoyang then went out directly with a flashlight.

When I arrived at the educated youth point, I happened to see several male educated youths coming back from outside with flashlights. When they saw Song Chaoyang opening the gate of the female educated youth courtyard, they deliberately shot him with a flashlight.

After finding out it was Song Chaoyang, they said hello and then went back.

During this period of time, the male educated youths have also become accustomed to the existence of Song Chaoyang. This man is more capable than them. He has done so many things, and they ask themselves that they must not be able to do it.

As for a translation job, they are not capable of it.

"Maybe Yangjiagou will come to harvest the millet in the fields at night, and there might be a fight. If you are willing to help, sleep lightly at night." Song Chaoyang couldn't help but remind them.

After hearing Song Chaoyang's words, several male educated youths looked at each other.

Then one of the people who seemed to be the leader said:
"I understand. If we hear any noise at night, we will come out to help."

"The village doesn't let us work and gives us food. We really should help with this."

After finishing speaking, others nodded.

After Song Chaoyang heard this, he didn't say much.

I did everything I could.

And the advance dream never said it was dangerous here.

Opening the gate of Cao Wei's yard, she called the "little red" mountain dog inside.

The other party immediately came out wagging his tail.

This dog has grown up a lot in such a long time, and it looks a little more agile as it gets bigger.

There was no need for Song Chaoyang to be tied up at all, he just followed Song Chaoyang and walked out of the door.

This dog Cao Wei is better fed than Song Chaoyang's family. It seems to be bigger and its fur is smooth and smooth.

"Let's go to my house." Song Chaoyang pointed in the direction of his home.

Gouzi ran directly in front of him. After running a few steps, he looked back to see if Song Chaoyang had followed.

At the same time, he looked around alertly, casting his gaze into the distant mountains and forests from time to time.

In those dark mountain forests, there are strange roars of wild beasts from time to time. The locals are not surprised, but this dog is extremely alert.

Nice dog.

Although from a hunter's point of view, it is not as good as the other one, its quality is not low either.

It seems that you can still increase its upper limit through diet and training.

After returning home, the dog immediately relaxed and started playing with Song Chaoyang's dog.

Cao Wei also prepared food for the dogs at this time and "slurped" at them.

The two dogs ran over instantly and started feasting.

Just when Song Chaoyang was about to read a book, his wife Xu Cuiping found him:
"Third brother, I forgot something to tell you."

"Huh?" Song Chaoyang turned back to look at my mother.

My mother said to him:
"After you left this morning, a classmate of yours came and said that he had made an appointment to hold a class reunion in the county seat next Sunday..."

After she finished speaking, she recalled it again before saying:
"Let's meet at the gate of the previous school at 11 noon on Sunday."

"Yes, this is the time."

"I was so busy today that I forgot about it."

Song Chaoyang nodded, he knew it when he had precognitive dreams before.

He responded to my mother:
"Oh, that's good to know."

Then Song Chaoyang returned to his study room, lit candles and prepared to read.

There was something going on tonight, and he knew that he might not be able to have his premonition dream, so he simply stayed up late reading and waited until the earthquake passed before going to sleep and getting up later tomorrow.
