Chapter 544. Zhao Jun: Dad, have you never seen money?
Conditions are not good these days. It is very common for brothers and sisters to wear clothes that are too small for the second child, and for the second child to wear small clothes for the third child.
When an old man passes away, he wears a shroud, which is what Northeastern people call old clothes. The other clothes of the old man are also left to his family.
Because life was hard, people at this time were not afraid of so many things. It would be nice to have clothes to wear.
Li Baoyu’s father, Mr. Li, has bought one new piece of clothing in his whole life, which is the Chinese tunic suit that Li Ruhai is holding.
Old man Li has only worn this dress a few times in his life, and it was always for important occasions, such as Li Dayong's wedding.
After Mr. Li left, these clothes were passed to Li Dayong.
Therefore, for Li Dayong, this dress is not only precious, but also has commemorative significance.
So Li Dayong cherished it very much and kept it in the cabinet for collection, hoping to keep it until Li Baoyu got married.
There is no other way. He, Li Dayong, is a returned worker who wears a Chinese tunic suit and goes up the mountain to move wood. That is a bit outrageous.
But just such a piece of clothing, which has special meaning to the Li family, was dug out by Li Ruhai and he had to wear it to work tomorrow. Those who knew that he was going to the forest farm to guard the gate, but those who didn't know thought that he was going to be the director of the forest farm.

But at this time, Li Baoyu really didn't dare to mess with Li Ruhai. He was about to go to bed. What if he made this child cry and kept saying "uh uh", and Li Baoyu, who was in the same room with him, couldn't sleep?
Thinking of this, Li Baoyu could only give a tactful reminder and said: "Are these clothes too big for you?"
"It's okay!" Li Ruhai put the clothes on his arms, got off the kang, and said, "I asked my mother to change it for me."
These days, every family has to sew and mend, and every woman is good at needlework.
If the sleeves of the clothes are long, roll them up so that the threads are stretched twice. As the child grows, slowly put the long sleeves out. As for the fat body, you can also tuck in part of it, and all the stitches are on the inside, so it looks good from the outside.
Can't tell.
Li Ruhai got off the kang with his clothes and happily went to the opposite room.
When they went to the next room, Li Ruhai told her request. Jin Xiaomei glanced at Li Dayong. Seeing that Li Dayong didn't say anything, Jin Xiaomei said, "Leave it there. Mom will change it for you later."
This year, the Li family's life has gotten better. Otherwise, even if Li Ruhai howled all night, Li Dayong would not have given him this dress.
Just like that, Li Ruhai went back to the house to sleep on the kang. He wanted to have a good sleep and be energetic enough to go up the mountain the next day.
The next day, Li Ruhai got up from the kang at half past four. When he came out of the room just now, he saw a piece of clothing draped on a stool in the outer room.
Li Ruhai showed off his clothes, and it turned out to be the Chinese tunic suit. He put it on the outside, not too big, not too small, just right.
This is what a mother knows about her child's clothing size.
After getting dressed, Li Ruhai opened the door and left the house. He was going to go around the village and share his good news with his fellow villagers. While making them happy for him, he also said to his aunts and aunts, "Don't worry."
If they can't see themselves for a day, it's time to miss them.
When Li Ruhai came out of Li's courtyard, he caught up with Zhao Jun who also came out of the house. Zhao Jun got up to go to the toilet. As soon as he came out of the courtyard, he saw Li Ruhai who looked like a human and a dog.
Zhao Jun rubbed his eyes subconsciously and asked: "Ruhai, what are you going to do?"
In Zhao Jun's impression, if any family even has children dressed like this, it must be a happy event when smoke comes out of the ancestor's grave.
But what kind of happy event can the Li family have? Li Baoyu got married on the same day as himself, both after the new year.
"Brother, you don't know yet, right?" Li Ruhai walked in front of Zhao Jun in a few steps and said with a raised face: "I will go to work at the forest farm in a moment."
"I know about this." Zhao Jun looked Li Ruhai up and down and asked as if he was guessing: "Is that why you are dressed like this?"
"Yeah!" Li Ruhai said with a smile: "Brother, let me tell you..."
"Stop talking to me." Zhao Jun didn't want to hear what he was saying. He was mainly anxious, so he interrupted Li Ruhai and said, "Just do whatever you have to do. I'm in a hurry to go to the latrine."
Li Ruhai's smile froze instantly. Zhao Jun was the first person he met after coming out of home. He wanted to share his joy with Zhao Jun, but he was met with indifference and disregard. This made Li Ruhai feel that today was a bad start, so he used
Speaking of Northeastern dialect, it’s not a good start here.
But Li Ruhai is a free and easy person. Since he can't defeat Zhao Jun, he should leave quickly. After thinking about this clearly, Li Ruhai calmed down his mood, held his head high, held his little hands behind his back, and walked to another place with square steps. After taking two steps,
He turned his head, looked at Zhao Jun who was crawling into the latrine, and muttered: "A lazy donkey will urinate a lot."
"What the hell?" Zhao Jun vaguely heard Li Ruhai seem to speak, but when he turned around, he saw Li Ruhai leaving in a hurry.
Zhao Jun didn't care too much about it and just shook his head secretly in his heart. He also had a Chinese tunic suit. This whole village was full of people. I'm afraid even the village chief Zhao Guofeng didn't wear something like this.
As for the entire Yongan Forestry Farm, except for general meetings, only the secretary and a few farm directors would wear this.
Zhao Jun squatted in the hut for a while. When he came out, he lowered his head to tie his pants and walked slowly home. Suddenly he felt something was wrong. When he looked up, he saw Zhao Youcai standing in front of him.
"Oh, dad." Zhao Jun said: "What are you doing here? You don't make any sound."
"Smash it!" Zhao Youcai smiled and said, "I'm waiting for you."
After hearing what he said, Zhao Jun curled his lips and said, "Dad, why do you always block me outside the toilet?"
Zhao Youcai chuckled and said, "This guy is easy to talk to."
When Zhao Jun heard this, he couldn't help but frowned. It was convenient to talk here. Last time he was here, Zhao Youcai blackmailed him fifty yuan.
Suddenly, Zhao Jun felt something was wrong and asked Zhao Youcai: "Dad, what's wrong with you? Why are your eyes so red?"
At this time, Zhao Youcai's eyes were bloodshot and there were heavy dark circles.

Zhao Youcai came to Zhao Jun, took his arm and asked: "Son, do you know what it means to go into battle as a father-son soldier?"
Even though Zhao Jun was uneducated, he knew the meaning of this sentence, but what he couldn't figure out was what Zhao Youcai wanted to do.
Based on this old boy's consistent behavior, Zhao Jun guessed that Zhao Youcai was looking for him for money.
In this case, Zhao Jun said in a sloppy manner: "Father and son are going into battle? Dad, who are you going to fight? Who has offended you? Let's call Baoyu, Jiechen, and I, Uncle Li, let's fight him."

"What are you talking about!" Zhao Youcai patted Zhao Jun on the arm and said, "Who dares to mess with your dad? Dad is asking you, do you know what it means to keep the wealth from others?"
"Huh?" Zhao Jun was startled, looked back at the hut, and then said to Zhao Youcai: "Dad, do you want me to pull it into our back garden? Aren't we already building a shed?"
"What are you talking about?" Hearing Zhao Jun's words, Zhao Youcai felt disgusted and said angrily: "Who told you this?"
Zhao Jun looked innocent and said: "Dad, what are you going to do?"
"Dad is telling you..." Zhao Youcai glanced left and right, then whispered to Zhao Jun: "When you make money, you can bring dad with you. When the time comes, can't we get an extra share when we go there?"
?"
"Ah!" Zhao Junzuo suddenly realized. When Zhao Youcai saw this, he thought that this kid had enlightened, and then a smile appeared on his old face.
But at this moment, Zhao Jun said: "Dad, please take a leave. You will ride with us in a car to Yongxing. We will catch the roe deer. You have a share."
The smile on Zhao Youcai's face froze, and he immediately looked at Zhao Jun with murderous eyes.
Zhao Jun was stunned and said: "Dad, what are you going to do?"
Zhao Youcai glared at Zhao Jun, but thinking that he had to rely on this guy to make a fortune, he patiently asked Zhao Jun: "Where is the old man you mentioned last night?"
Zhao Jun heard this and said with a smile: "Dad, why are you asking? Are you going to take the mallet secretly while I'm not at home?"
"Go to the other side!" Zhao Youcai said angrily: "Is your father like that? Let me ask you, where can you be sure?"
Zhao Youcai almost memorized that passage yesterday. He couldn't sleep at night, so he lay on the kang and pondered over it.
Then the more he thought about it, the more energetic he became, and the more energetic he became, the less likely he was to fall asleep. Finally, in the morning, when he heard some noise coming from the room opposite, he got up from the bed, put on his clothes and chased him out.
That night, Zhao Youcai figured it out. The Shen Gang would definitely not build a shack near Laotunzi, but it wouldn't be too far away either.
But it is surrounded by mountains on both sides, so searching blindly is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Moreover, in this season, the grass and trees are withering, the ginseng seeds have fallen, and there are no red hammers in sight. For ordinary people, if they want to pick up a mallet in the mountains, it will be harder than climbing to the sky.
Therefore, even if Zhao Youcai knew where the old man was, he would not go there by himself.
However, Zhao Youcai also knew that his son was capable of holding a big mallet in spring. Since he could read that paragraph to himself yesterday, it must have deep meaning.
Suddenly, Zhao Youcai looked at the familiar scenes around him and couldn't help but think of something.
Just last time, I stopped Zhao Jun outside this toilet and blackmailed him for fifty yuan... No, it was the time to seek justice for myself. This kid once asked me about the blind man in Yongsheng Tunpang.
p>
Zhao Youcai knew that the old Pang family had been the leader of the mountain rangers since Blind Pang's father's generation. When it came to Blind Pang, he was also the leader of the ginseng team, and he was the leader who could organize more than ten people to release the mountains together.
Thinking of this, Zhao Youcai looked at Zhao Jun with burning eyes.
"Dad." Zhao Jun also looked around and saw no one around, so he said to Zhao Youcai: "When I come back from Yongxing, it will be the Mid-Autumn Festival by then. One day we will go up the mountain to take care of the old village.
I’m getting up.”
"This..." Zhao Youcai couldn't believe his ears for a moment, and said excitedly: "This, is this true?"
Zhao Youcai didn't expect that happiness came so suddenly.
"Really!" Zhao Jun opened his arms, put his arms around Zhao Youcai's shoulders, and whispered: "Dad, don't tell anyone else. When the time comes, we will be the ones to take this old man, and no one else will take it."<
/p>
When Zhao Youcai heard this, he frowned, then straightened his eyebrows. He took a step forward suddenly, got out of Zhao Jun's arms, turned around and said in surprise: "Is it Dachengzi?"
Zhao Youcai knows that his son is definitely not a wealthy person. If you don't believe it, just ask Li Baoyu, Zhang Yuanmin and Xie Chen.
Among these three people, Jie Chen has been with Zhao Jun for the shortest time, but he has saved thousands of dollars even with a stick and bear bile.
As for Zhang Yuanmin, his family is almost worth 10,000 yuan. As for Li Baoyu, let alone that.
Then, the only one who can make Zhao Jun say, "It's just us and me, no one else will take it" is the legendary Dagenzi!
An old fortress is not necessarily a big fortress. But a big fortress must be an old fortress, and it is an old fortress whose shipments are priceless.
If you look at this kind of big farm in the mountains, it means that the mountain god is biased. Whoever can get it must not bring anyone with a foreign surname, and can only go with his father, son and brothers.
This is a rule passed down from the elders, but Zhao Youcai knows that saying this is just to add a layer of superstition to a certain truth.
The fundamental reason is that this kind of wealth must not be exposed to the public.
It used to be said: Mountain wealth cannot be enjoyed exclusively.
At first glance, the two seem contradictory. But even if it is a windfall, even if it is 10,000 yuan, it will not matter if you share it with your relatives and friends, two or three thousand yuan with your family, and even if it is passed on.
But what if it’s one hundred thousand?
What about two hundred thousand?
A family is divided into 40,000 and 50,000 yuan. If this spreads, it will easily attract desperadoes.
Li Dayong, Li Baoyu are reliable, Zhang Yuanmin, and Jie Chen are also reliable. But they also have their own flesh and blood relatives. If they want to truly keep the secret, they have to hide it from everyone.
Therefore, after knowing the clues about this old man, Zhao Jun planned to go alone with Zhao Youcai and his son.
Even if the old village is very big, it doesn't matter.
It was 1992 when Zhao Jun met Pang Xiazi's family at the sandwich post between the two Lin classes of 61 and 62.
Today is September 27, 1987, the fifth day of the eighth lunar month, which is still early in 1992.
Therefore, Zhao Jun planned to find an opportunity to take Zhao Youcai up there after he came back. In this autumn season, no one would have thought that his father and son were going to release mountains.
When you get there, scout the mountainous terrain to see if there are any old signs. If there are any, determine the location of the old village and destroy the old signs.
Zhao Jun never abides by those old rules, just like when he took ginseng from the mountains twice, he didn't leave any signs of death after taking it.
This is a habit he developed in his previous life. In the mountains of the Far East of the Rakshasa Kingdom, who is leaving a sign of old age?
Moreover, don’t mention the Mountain God to Zhao Jun, the boss. Even if the Mountain God comes, if he dares to sneer, Zhao Jun will destroy it with a semi-automatic.
So, Zhao Jun pulled Zhao Youcai to the foot of the wall, looked around carefully, and then whispered: "Dad, remember, you can't tell anyone. When the time comes, let us go, don't talk about this number..."
."
When he said the last three words, Zhao Jun stretched out a slap and flashed it in front of Zhao Youcai's eyes.
Zhao Youcai's eyes lit up and he said in surprise: "Five thousand?"
When Zhao Jun heard this, he put his hand down and said with a smile: "Dad, have you never seen money?"
Zhao Youcai promised that if Zhao Jun dared to talk to him like this in normal times, he would have to make Zhao Jun know what a fist as big as a sandbag is.
But at this moment, Zhao Youcai's lips trembled with excitement, and he murmured: "Five...five...fifty thousand?"
Zhao Jun is right, Lao Zhao has never seen so much money.
Zhao Jun nodded and said: "Just a little more!"
"Son!" Zhao Youcai's big hands were like vise-like grips on Zhao Jun's wrists, and he said, "When the job is done, can you give dad a hundred yuan?"
"Dad, please let go first, Dad." Zhao Jun was afraid of causing trouble for Zhao Youcai, so he hurriedly advised: "This is easy to talk about, but now I have something I want to entrust to you. When I am not at home these days,
You have to do something for me."
Zhao Youcai let go of Zhao Jun's wrist, slapped his chest with his backhand, and said: "Son, don't worry, no matter what the task is, Dad will complete it!"
