Volume Four, Hou Fengbaili, Chapter 58: Private Interview with Xue Xiangwei (2)

As soon as he thought of this, Xue Xiang could still watch quietly. After throwing the handlebars, he ran towards the hillside on the left. Before he could walk a few steps, he found that his feet were deeply trapped in the mud. It turned out that the soil was so soft that the child could still bear the weight. How could he be able to do this?

"Old Wang, Chaohui, don't come over, hurry up and call the children on the slope down, and be careful to be slow!"

When Wang Gang and Chu Zhaohui saw that Xue Xiang's legs had already fallen to the bends of their legs, they changed their color in horror and rushed towards him to save Xue Xiang, but Xue Xiang stopped him with a shout.

The two looked at each other and didn't know what to do. It was necessary to save the child, but if they got involved in County Mayor Xue, they were afraid of losing the official hat.

"Fuck by, hurry up and wait for my death!"

Xue Xiang scolded and pointed out the key points, and then the two of them ran towards the hillside.

"Children, come down quickly, enoki mushrooms, 20 cents per catty, 20 cents per catty, 20 cents per catty, out of date, no one is allowed to run away, no one is allowed to fall away, I don't want anything that has been lost or dispersed."

Xue Laosan opened his voice and shouted loudly. At this moment, he had already stood at the bottom of the slope, but his body was so dirty that he could not see the true appearance of the clothes.

It turned out that just now, Xue Laosan pulled up onions on the dry land and jumped up. Her left foot gently placed a sapling as thick as a finger. The saplings broke in response to the sound. Xue Laosan finally borrowed the force and fell horizontally in the air, falling on the slope, and immediately rolled down. In this way, her straw hat fell down, and the shirt and pants inside naturally could not be preserved.

If Xue Laosan's cry was thoughtful, he would not think about it for a while if he had not been a person with impetuous minds. Because Xue Laosan had to let the children fall down from the mountain obediently, and ensure that the speed was not fast, it was really difficult.

Because if Xue Laosanguang said that the mountain was about to collapse, everyone should come down quickly and don’t go fast. There will be two situations. First, the children will think that he is a liar and want to cheat everyone away. It is better to pick enoki mushrooms alone. Second, if the children believe it, in a hurry, they will fight for each other, so that they will surely slip away quickly. In this way, the movement will be big. Maybe the mudslide will be triggered immediately.

When Xue Laosan talks about grinding mushrooms, he is smart and much more secure. One is to lure it at a high price. He also adds that the children don’t listen to it. After all, even if the enoki mushrooms are taken to the supply and marketing cooperative, they only cost three or five cents a pound. Xue Xiang has increased several times, and the benefits lies. The people’s hearts are all the same, and children are no exception. Secondly, Xue Laosan adds them and doesn’t have to do anything that can be lost or scattered. This completely limits the speed of the children.

Sure enough, Xue Laosan stopped shouting like thunder. Twenty little heads on the hillside on the left deflected together. Xue Xiang took out a stack of banknotes from his pocket and shook the void. Now, a bunch of little maomao had no doubts. He picked up the small basket and walked down the slope, controlling the speed while protecting the basket, looking very serious.

Xue Xiang shouted loudly. Wang Gang and Chu Zhaohui, who were looking for the other slope, heard it naturally. They felt a sense of the same thing and then started to scream. In an instant, the children on the slope also walked down the slope step by step.

Looking at the surging and slow crowds on both sides, Xue Laosan felt a little relieved and stayed in fear for a while. The thirty or forty dolls finally gathered on the stone road, each holding baskets, and not yelling, but the meaning was very obvious, that was to ask Xue Xiang to fulfill his promise.

Xue Xiangzi would not lie to a group of children, and the small baskets in front of him were all half full. Even if they were full, the loose and light enoki mushrooms could not be two pounds. Xue Xiang swept a little a little, pointed out two great unity from the banknotes, held high, and smiled and said, "I have twenty yuan here. Not only do I buy your enoki mushrooms, but also buy you a truth. Then, you will break the 20 yuan in the town and divide it evenly. I will give you this enoki mushrooms again, but after I give it to you, I will not sell them anymore. I will keep them for myself, it will be very long."

Looking at the childish, simple little faces in front of him, covered in mud and ragged clothes, Xue Xiang's heart was already sore. The oldest was just about Xiao Yi, eleven or twelve years old, younger than the little guy, one or two years younger than the little guy, and his black hands were covered with yellow mud, and few dolls had shoes on their feet. At the moment, Xue Xiang said twenty yuan, but naturally he was not capable of giving more, but even if he gave thirty or fifty, what could it be? His responsibility was not to enrich one person and one household, but to enrich the people of the whole county, not to mention that this little money could not be rich in one person and one household.

"Thank you uncle, we only sell enoki mushrooms, not the truth. The teacher said that children should be honest, so we only tell the truth. Asking questions is not expensive, so we don't sell the truth."

The person who spoke was a little boy, his nose was so clear that he fell out. He said something and sucked it, his little face was full of seriousness.

Xue Xiang was sad and said, "Good kids, you are all good kids. Come on, kids, let's talk to you."

Although the two slopes are still far away from this gravel road, Xue Xiang is still worried that the mudslide will break out suddenly and violently, which will lead the children further away.

After everyone stood still, Xue Xiang continued: "My question is very simple, why don't you go to school? I see that most of you wear red scarves around your neck, and they should be students. But now it's not time for the busy holiday, are you skipping school? Children, making money is important, but that's the matter of your parents. Your current task is to study. Only by studying well can you make more money."

Xue Laosan said naked that learning was to make money, and he didn't feel inappropriate in his heart. Because in his opinion, talking nonsense is far from the sincerity of the truth. He said that he would serve the motherland and give back to society. Now, the motherland and society made these babies climb mountains and pick mushrooms on rainy days. Could it be that Xue Xiang could still say it? He blushed when he thought about it.

"Uncle, we are not skipping school, but being kicked out by the teacher. We said we couldn't pay all the teaching funds and we were not allowed to attend class!" The answer was still the little boy just now.

"What teaching fund?" This time Xue Xiang didn't ask the children, but turned to look at Wang Gang and Chu Chaohui.

The two of them shook their heads in a daze, obviously they had never heard of such a charge.

"It's just to make up for the food expenses for the teacher. Our teacher said that the school could not pay the salary, so we asked each family to make some money first and buy rice for the teachers first, otherwise the teacher would starve to death. No one would go to class." The answer was that the tallest among the bunch of dolls was a little girl, and it looked like she was a little girl. She looked like a little girl in the Xia family. I don't know if she was in junior high school or elementary school.

"Children, which school do you all come from?"

“I’m from Zhougang Primary School”

“I’m from Haogou Primary School”

“I’m from Qiaokou Primary School”

“I’m from Chengguan Middle School”

“……………………”

After Xue Xiang asked, the children reported it out loud.

Listening to Tong Sheng's words, Xue Xiang's heart was boiling. At this moment, the ignorance in his heart was burning for 30,000 feet. If Cai Congding was in front of him, he would definitely slap him. Even if Cai Congding was not in front of him, Xue Laosan had already cursed his ancestors in his heart for eighteen generations.

Thinking about it, I think how pitiful Cai Congding said in front of Xue Laosan. Xue Laosan fought for no reason. He had a fight with Mao Youcai, and allocated the largest education fund since Xiaoshan County was established - a total of 50,000 yuan. Now, this bastard has left the teachers without money to eat and forced the children to dig mushrooms on the mountain. If a mudslide occurs, the one with the surname Cai will not be redeemed. Why don't Xue Laosan be furious?

"I'm greedy for money!" Xue Xiang was furious, but he still smiled on his face: "Okay. Children, hurry up and take a shower, pack your schoolbags, and pencil case, and you can go to school in the afternoon."

"Uncle, I'll give us thirty-nine. Although no one can get more than 50 cents per cent, it's still far from the money we have to pay. How can we go to school in the afternoon?" The little boy with a snot nose was very clever and he was considered to have a fortune in the blink of an eye.

Xue Xiang said, "Uncle said, I can't make a mistake. I'm not allowed to pick mushrooms again in the future. I have wrapped the mushrooms on the soil slopes on both sides. Okay, children, go back quickly." As he spoke, Xue Xiang handed the two bills to the tall girl, the only doll who signed up for middle school.

Seeing that the children finally got the money, they immediately jumped up in joy and chattered at Xue Xiang to thank him. The pair of black eyes were stuck to the two pieces of money, so they could not move them away.

The tall child bowed to Xue Xiang and said "Thank you uncle", and was surrounded by a group of children and ran towards the city gate.

"wrong!"

"not good!"

Xue Xiang and Chu Chaohui actually called out at the same time!

"Kids, wait, wait!"

Xue Laosan immediately shouted loudly to stop the dolls.

The children turned around and stared at the rich uncle with curiosity. There were also many strange people wondering if this uncle had figured it out and thought that he had given too much money and wanted to get back the money.

Xue Xiang took a few steps, and arrived in front of him, and said anxiously: "How many children are there in total who are here to pick mushrooms?"

"Thirty-nine, I said it just now." The little snot baby took his bare arms and walked around his nose, and finally wiped out the snot that had been in and out for a long time.

Xue Xiang's heart fell and said anxiously: "You can see wherever you have arrived. I just clicked it, and there are only thirty-eight. Look, who is missing."

It turned out that Xue Xiang and Chu Zhaohui shouted out at the same time, and they discovered that there were only thirty-eight dolls in front of them, one less than the thirty-nine ones mentioned by Snot.

"Oh no, it's because the little flower is gone. She must have picked it to Dulongpo. Erjiazi, I won't ask you to look at her. Looking at her, how can you promise to lose the person? Can Dulongpo go? Although there are more grinding mushrooms, it's high and steep. The Poison Dragon Pond is so deep below. If the little flower is planted, there is still a good idea. How can I live by calling me Second Aunt?"

The tall girl grabbed the snot baby's ear and started to scold.

The snot baby's ears were pulled long, and he grinned while grinning, "Xiaohua promised not to go. I have to bow my head when I pick the grinding mushrooms. I can't always look at her, otherwise what am I here? Okay, I'll go back to find her. You go to the town to share the money first."

The snot baby is only in his teens and looks very precocious and has a very manly responsibility.
