Chapter 13 Coincidence
After arriving home, the villagers saw a few cars entering the village, so they hurried out to have a look. Afterwards, the village head got out of the car and hurriedly said, "There are three cars of bricks and tiles in total. Anyone who goes up to help unload the bricks and tiles, everyone will have a car after unloading." 30 bucks."

After the villagers heard it, they saw that three carts of bricks would cost less than an hour, and they could earn 30 yuan, and there were more than a dozen people.

This is also because Zhao Long considered that people only provided bricks and did not help unload them, and the car was not an automatic carriage. When there was no other way, he discussed with the village chief and decided to do this.

In less than a while, more than a dozen people unloaded three cars of materials to the designated location of the old house.

Zhao Long also let the villagers get 30 yuan for everyone, and then handed out cigarettes for everyone to smoke. While smoking, they said happily: "College students are different. In the future, if there is anything that needs help, I will definitely return it." To come."

Zhao Long said to the village chief: "Village chief, do you think it is suitable to start work tomorrow?"

"Well, tomorrow is fine." The village head said

Afterwards, Zhao Long and his mother stayed at the village head to have dinner at home, because there was work tomorrow, the village head had dinner, chatted with Zhao Long briefly, and then left.

The mother said: "Dragon, this old house of yours can be repaired simply. You don't need to waste money on such major repairs. It is not easy for you to make money. Remember to save some money."

"Mom, it's okay. There are other reasons why I want to overhaul. You will know in the future." Zhao Long said

Seeing Zhao Long say this, my mother must have her own thoughts, so she didn't say anything else...
The next day, in the early morning, under the watchful eyes of the whole village, Zhao Long began to worship his ancestors in front of the old house. His mother grabbed a big rooster from his own house, and after bleeding, she handed Zhao Long three incense sticks and said: " Let the dragon begin"

Zhao Long nodded and knelt down on his knees, holding up the fragrance with both hands. First, he kowtowed three times. After three kowtows, Zhao Long felt his forehead burning. There is a saying in the village that the louder the kowtow, the more auspicious it will be in the future. , to show respect for ancestors.

Then Zhao Long stood up again, holding the slaughtered rooster in his hand, and began to circle the altar three times clockwise, which meant that he hoped that the ancestors would accept the tribute from the villagers. In front of the house gate, he put the chicken blood at the gate of the old house, knelt down on both knees, and knocked three times. After three knocks, Zhao Long felt a little dizzy. Then, he stood up, closed his eyes, and said silently: The ancestors are above, Zhao Long worships the ancestors today, bless the family and the village in the future, Zhao Long thanks.Then, tap three heads, which means the end of worship.As soon as Zhao Long stood up, he heard the crackling sound of firecrackers, which soon ended.

This means that the worship is completed, and firecrackers are set off at the end. There is a saying in the village: "After the worship, if the firecrackers are extinguished halfway through the sound, it means that the ancestors disagree, and the worship will be repeated. Until the firecrackers are all fired once Sex is over.

After the firecrackers sound, it means that the ancestors have eaten the tribute.Afterwards, the children started looting the tribute after the worship...

Afterwards, the old uncle and the others began to lead the staff under their hands to start construction. Although the wood was not available for the time being, Zhao Long still hoped to buy the wood back quickly. After the worship, he greeted the old uncle, the village chief, and his mother He rushed to the town immediately, and before he left, he dropped three packs of Yuxi cigarettes for the village chief and others to smoke at will.

After arriving in the town, Zhao Long asked people about the timber, and finally got the accurate quality and scale of a large timber factory near noon. Zhao Long used his mobile phone to locate it and found The place is a bit remote, so I decided to go to Zhao Che.

Zhao Long was looking for a car while operating his mobile phone, and accidentally bumped into someone, Zhao Long hurriedly raised his head to apologize, the person was about to speak, and Zhao Long seemed familiar, Zhao Long also looked at this well-dressed person, the two At the same time, people shouted 'Zhao Long,' 'Li Wei' in surprise.

Li Weixian said in surprise: "Zhao Long is really you, old classmate, haven't seen each other for several years."

Zhao Long also said happily: "Li Wei, we haven't seen each other for several years, what are you doing recently?"

When he was happy, Zhao Long recalled the scene in junior high school again. It was Zhao Long and Li Wei who were very good friends. After high school, they went to different cities for the exam, and then they couldn't contact each other for various reasons.

Now suddenly seeing each other is even more enthusiastic...

Li Wei said: "I'm doing fruit wholesale business in city A now, how about you? Why are you in this remote place? I remember your hometown is in a mountainous area. Could it be here?" Li Wei asked

"It would be great if I could be in this town. My home is in the mountains, and there is still a long way to go. This place is in our town. Am I going to repair my old house? I've been busy for a few days, and today I'm here to buy For wood, I just asked about the specific place, and this is the place you see." Zhao Long said and then positioned the phone for Li Wei to see
"By the way, why did you come to our town? Is your business here? Or what's going on?" Zhao Long questioned
Li Wei sighed impatiently when he heard Zhao Long's question...

Seeing that Li Wei seemed to be in trouble, Zhao Long hurriedly asked again: "Old classmate, what's the matter, tell me and see if I can help you, what's wrong? Are you so worried?"

Li Wei said to Zhao Long: "Old classmate, you don't know. The last month has made me anxious. I'm not in the fruit wholesale business. My mother is always reluctant to throw away the leftovers. There is no way, he always washes and eats casually, and doesn’t listen to what he says, so I let him eat it. After a long time, he suddenly fell ill one day. Later, he went to the hospital for an examination and found out that too much food had accumulated in his body. The hospital has been continuing to treat the pesticide residues on many fruits. However, this is already a small amount and a short time. Because it is a slight pesticide residue, the hospital has no way to do it. It can only let the mother not Eat these fruits again." Zhao Long nodded to Li Wei to continue.

Li Wei handed Zhao Long a cigarette, lit it, took a sharp puff and continued: "The doctor also said that the nutritional value of fruit is very high. If you can buy fruit that is not contaminated with pesticides, you can give it to your mother every day. On the contrary, It can make my mother recover quickly, but now, which fruit has no pesticides on the market, I can’t find it in the city, I was anxious, so I ran to the mountain village, hoping to find fruits without pesticides, no matter how expensive I am I will buy it. I ran many places, but I couldn’t find it. I was worried, and I ran into you.”

Zhao Long was smoking a cigarette and did not speak. Seeing Zhao Long's expression seemed to be thinking about something, Li Wei hurriedly asked, "Old classmate, do you know where it is?!"

Zhao Long then said: "There are a few peach trees behind my old house. They are all green fruits without pesticides. However, there are not many of them. Many of them are full of insects. A few days ago, I took my sister to pick them. How many?"

Li Wei's eyes were red with excitement when he heard that his old classmate's house was there, and he hurriedly said: "Anyway, one thing is one thing, then I will go back to your house with you right now. Sell ​​me all the fruits."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Long hurriedly said: "What are you selling? You can pick it up and eat it. Be polite to me."

"That won't work. If there are a lot of them, how can I take them all? I'll just give you a price." Li Wei said

Knowing that there are not many peaches on the peach tree at home, Zhao Long jokingly said: "If there are many, you can pay the price yourself. I told you there are not many, and there are still many that are infested with insects. You can figure it out."

"That's good, that's good, don't you want to buy wood? Let's go, I'll buy it with you. If you buy it, go back quickly." Li Wei hurriedly urged Zhao Long to buy wood...
Zhao Long shook his head helplessly, and took a taxi with Li Wei to the wood wholesale factory. After arriving at the place, Zhao Long handed over the specific specifications and quantities written by the old uncle to the wood boss.After looking at it, the boss hurriedly said: "There are several kinds of specifications, but the quantity of this kind of specification is not enough. Why don't you buy the others first, and I will work overtime tonight and deliver them to you in person tomorrow morning." How was it?"

Zhao Long thought for a while and said: "Well, the boss will trouble you. I don't know how much it costs. The boss is also a real person. Give us a real price, and we don't have to waste our time."

Seeing that Zhao Long could come up with specific specifications, the wood boss knew in his heart that he should have a price in his heart, so he said very honestly: "We are all solid wood with high quality. You buy a lot, and most of them are It’s in stock, so how about you give 6? Including shipping costs.”

Seeing that the price that Zhao Long told the old man was basically the same, he readily nodded in agreement, and then the wood boss asked Zhao Long for the specific address, and he would come to deliver the remaining wood tomorrow, and then Zhao Long and Li Wei followed the wood boss The truck arranged to deliver the wood took some of the wood and rushed back to Zhaojia Village.
