Seeing that these black car drivers were hesitant at first, Cheng Yu was determined to offer a high price. Things like renting a car were basically out of his scope. After all, where he was going, there was no mobile phone signal. Who knew when the navigation would arrive?
Does it work or not?
But now that someone is willing to send him there, that's the best. Besides, if you look carefully at the thin, dark man in front of you, his face still has a bit of childishness. Although his skin is rough, Cheng Yu can also guess that it is because he has been there for a long time.
Because of living in the mountains. Judging from his childishness, the person in front of me is probably no more than twenty years old.
"Oh? Are they not willing to go?" Cheng Yu was not in a hurry to leave. Anyway, the news from Xue Changyun was not reliable yet. Xue Zhenghao had to take the high-speed train to Nanning at night, and the transfer time to Fangchenggang was uncertain.
The thin, dark man mumbled and explained in very non-standard Mandarin: "The place you are going to is a very remote market town. To go there, you have to walk a lot of winding mountain roads. The winding mountain roads in our place are very difficult to walk, although they are only more than 60 meters long.
Kilometers, but you may not be able to get there in two hours. And you will definitely not be able to bring passengers back to that place. It takes four or five hours to go back and forth, which is no different from chartering a car."
"Haha, then why are you willing to go?"
"My home is in the mountains near that market town. I originally wanted to go back tomorrow to send some things and money to my family. Now that you are going there, it doesn't matter if I go back a day early. This way I can still make some money.
, I can save the fuel cost of a one-way trip tomorrow, so it’s still a good deal.”
When he said this, the thin dark man kept rubbing his hands, feeling very unconfident, for fear that Cheng Yu would doubt him.
Cheng Yu is not worried about someone robbing him halfway. Anyway, during the mission, the points are necessary to spend, and he doesn't care about redeeming one more martial arts.
"Then how much do you want?" Cheng Yu asked with a smile.
"It costs about seventy or eighty to get from here to that market town. How about you give me two hundred?" It seemed that he was afraid that Cheng Yu would find it too expensive. After all, for a normal 60-kilometer journey, the taxi meter only cost more than 100. Black and thin
The man hurriedly explained: "The mountain road is slow and the fuel consumption is relatively high. If you take the expressway in the city, it only costs forty or fifty yuan. I'm not lying to you. If you switch to other cars, they won't necessarily charge four hundred yuan."
I'm willing to run. If I hadn't been able to drop by home, I wouldn't have been able to offer you such a low price."
Cheng Yu smiled and nodded, saying, "Okay, get in the car."
The thin dark man smiled, and he led Cheng Yu diligently toward his car. When he passed by the group of black car drivers, he nodded and bowed to disperse a circle of cigarettes.
The car is a domestically produced SUV, which costs 70,000 to 80,000 yuan. It is definitely not as comfortable as a sedan. But it has a high chassis and is more suitable for walking on mountainous roads.
"Aren't you Han?" Cheng Yu asked casually as the car drove not far away.
"No, I'm from the Zhuang ethnic group."
Cheng Yu was slightly disappointed. He was originally thinking that he would not find someone from Yaozhai when he was looking for a car. After all, the driver also said that he lived near that market town.
"What do I call you?"
"Call me Ade. Oh, I'm twenty years old this year."
Cheng Yu smiled. He seemed to be a very honest ethnic minority brother. Before Cheng Yu could ask, he told his age by the way.
"You're only twenty years old. Have you read a book?"
"I've read it, but I'm stupid and stopped after junior high school. My family is also poor, but I'm too young. No one dared to accept me if I wanted to work in the city, so I helped out at home for two years. I was sixteen years old
I have been working in the dock since I entered the city, and I just bought a car this year.”
This Ade was as nervous as if he was introducing himself during an interview. Cheng Yu just asked casually, and he told everything in a straight-forward manner.
"You haven't even graduated from junior high school?"
"After finishing my first year of junior high school, I really couldn't continue studying. My father discussed it with the school, and the school agreed to keep my student status, and finally issued me a diploma. In fact, I didn't finish my studies. I was really too stupid and couldn't listen to anything.
Understand."
Cheng Yu let out a long sigh and said that education is compulsory, but in fact it is not that easy. People in these poor areas have men at home who are the labor force. They all want him to work early and make money, so they can barely be regarded as illiterate.
I can only recognize two thousand Chinese characters.
"Ade, have you had lunch?"
After hearing this, Ade was stunned and seemed to remember that he was still hungry. He said a little embarrassedly: "I haven't eaten yet. Sir, can I stop in front and go to the supermarket to buy some bread. I will eat it soon."
After that, let’s get on the road again?”
Cheng Yu waved his hand and said, "I haven't eaten either. You've been working hard driving. How can you just eat a piece of bread? Go find a restaurant ahead and I'll treat you to a meal."
"Then you don't want it, you don't want it. If you want to eat, you can eat it yourself. I'll just buy some bread."
"Let's find a restaurant to stop first." Cheng Yu didn't bother to say more, so he could just order the dishes and ask him to eat them together.
The reason why he wanted to invite Ade to dinner was that he knew that the other party had not eaten. He had to walk on the mountain road for two hours. How could he have energy if he was not full? Secondly, Cheng Yu also wanted to talk to Ade more, even though he was from the Zhuang ethnic group.
, it is unlikely that they are from that Yao Village, but since they are all near that market town, they may also know something about that Yao Village.
Especially after arriving at the market town, there was still a long way to go from the Yao village. There was a high probability that cars would not be able to drive in. Cheng Yu did not intend to drive there with such a big fanfare. Cheng Fu was there when he saw a car suddenly coming from the village.
The car will definitely become suspicious, and even using the disguise technique won't work. So I'm afraid I have to find a local guide and switch to a vehicle that is convenient for walking on the mountain trails in order to get in smoothly. No matter what, Ade can give some help
Provide some information.
Ade quickly found a restaurant and stopped. When Cheng Yu got off the car, he asked him to go in with him. Ade refused. In the end, Cheng Yu said that you are not afraid that I will find someone else's car after I eat.
He shyly followed Cheng Yu into the hotel.
After ordering four dishes, Cheng Yu asked Ade to eat together. Ade gritted his teeth and finally picked up the bowl quickly.
After taking two bites, Ade said, "Sir, just give me one hundred and fifty."
Judging from the way he gritted his teeth, it seemed that he had made a lot of determination before saying this.
In response to this, Cheng Yu just smiled and did not insist. Anyway, as long as this Ade had no bad intentions, Cheng Yu had no intention of giving him only two hundred when he got there. He would definitely give him more.
After finishing lunch, the two returned to the car and continued on their way. Cheng Yu kept asking about the market town and Yao Village.
Ade didn't know much about that Yao village, but after all, it was surrounded by villagers near the market town. Before going to the city to work, he often picked up his family's crops and went to the market town to exchange money, so he would naturally deal with the people of the Yao village.
From Ade's description, Cheng Yu probably knew that there were more than a hundred people in that Yao village, but almost all the young people had gone to the city, and some even went to Vietnam to work. Those who stayed in the village, except for the elderly,
Women, children, and even unmarried young women are also working outside. It can be said that in the entire Yao Village, apart from underage children, there are almost no young people under the age of forty.
"Are you making good money working in the city?" Cheng Yu asked again, "But seeing as you can afford a car after working for more than three years, your income should be okay. Why not just bring your parents to the city, even if it's
What about renting a house to live in?”
"My father and mother are old and have no work to do when they go to the city. It is very difficult for me and my two brothers to support me. My two brothers have both married their mothers-in-law and have children. My father and mother are in the village.
Here, I can do some work by myself and help take care of the children. The children here are very wild and run around outside all day long. However, there are no outsiders near the village, so I don’t worry about their safety. But if we enter
How dare you let your children run around in the city? Parents will definitely watch them all day long. It is not that no one has tried it before, but no one has ever been able to survive two years. Not only can they not survive, but they have also lost their previous life.
All the savings I had were gone. No one dared to try it anymore. My car was a second-hand car that I bought for more than 20,000 yuan. If it weren’t for the copper ring dug out of the soil at home, it would have cost 10,000 yuan.
, my two elder brothers each gave me some money, and it was impossible to afford it. However, after I got a car, I earned more than moving goods at the dock, and I could often come back to deliver goods to my parents.
Order something."
That's what Ade is like. As long as Cheng Yu asks a casual question, he will take the initiative to say a long list of things behind him. Although Mandarin is very awkward and makes Cheng Yu have a hard time listening, this mode of speaking by himself without asking him more is quite satisfactory.
Just what Cheng Yu wanted.
"That Yao village used to be very powerful. It is said that it was moved from Wuzhou. But that happened hundreds of years ago, and I don't know much about it. I just heard from the old people in the market town that the Yao village was
The ancestors of the village also gave birth to a queen. I don’t know whether it is true or not. The old people said that there were more than 3,000 people in the Yao village before liberation, and it was considered the largest Yao village here. Even the village of the Zhuang ethnic group was
There were few that were bigger than them. But at that time, many young people in the village went out to fight, and they never came back. I don’t know if they were dead or something. Slowly, there were fewer and fewer people in the village.
.It wasn’t until the past ten or twenty years that things got a little better.”
Cheng Yu listened and made secret calculations in his mind.
It seems that Cheng Fu is really here for the crown, but it is obvious that the crown is no longer in Yao Village. The news from Xue Zhenghao should not be wrong. No matter whether this underground auction is in Fangchenggang or real
Like Xue Changyun said, he was in Vietnam, but he was no longer in the village long ago. In that case, Cheng Fu's information was not accurate, otherwise there would be no need for him to come to this Yao village.
Cheng Fu's system seems a bit weak. He doesn't even know that Hou Guan is not in the village?
Cheng Yu suddenly felt that something was wrong. Even if Cheng Fu's system was just a weakened version of the Divine Digging System, even if it was only one-tenth of the ability, he shouldn't know the true whereabouts of Hou Guan, right?
Could it be said that Cheng Fu's goal is not to win the title, but is only related to this Yao village?
"Speaking of which, a big incident happened in that Yao village!" Ade was still chatting with Cheng Yu.
Cheng Yu came to his senses and asked casually: "What big thing? What big thing can happen to a village with more than a hundred people?"
"I also heard from the old people in the town. They said that there was a sacred object in that Yao village, but they couldn't tell what kind of sacred object it was. They only said that it was something given to them by the queen of the ancestors of the Yao people.
The ancestral hall used to be kept in the village, under the personal care of the clan leader, and people had to pay their respects during every year and festival. But it was about ten years ago, when I was in the third grade. It was almost ten years ago that it was said that the sacred objects were made out of thin air.
disappeared. The door of the ancestral hall was well locked, but the sacred objects disappeared, leaving only the chassis on which the sacred objects were placed. But even though there was only a chassis left, the Yao people still regarded it as
It’s like a sacred object, you still have to worship it during holidays.”
Cheng Yu suddenly realized that the train ride was worth it.
The back crown is missing, but the base is still there.
