Haoran and his father were sitting in the yard, watching the red sun sinking in the sky and smelling the aroma of food wafting from the kitchen. A deep sense of warmth filled his heart. He had not experienced this kind of family warmth for a long time.
Experienced it.
"I can't afford to be hurt, I really can't afford to be hurt..." Suddenly, his cell phone rang.
"The words this girl sings are weird and I can't understand them." The father expressed his attitude towards his ring tone, obviously not interested in this trendy song.
"Ahem, I'll change it to "Three Auspicious Treasures" next time," Haoran laughed, stood up, walked aside, and answered the phone.
"Xiaoyun, why did you go offline so quickly?" He was a little strange. Logically speaking, the gang territory should have been upgraded to the castle at this time. The beautiful boss should be busy online. How could he have time to come down and give it to himself?
Telephone?
"System maintenance, 12 hours." Situ Muyun's voice came, sounding a little tired.
"Then you should have a good rest." Haoran said with concern, then he thought of another possibility: "By the way, is it because you called because you have some clues about something in the village?"
"How can it be so fast?" Xiaoyun said: "I was too busy just now, and I forgot to take care of some things before I went offline. I'm afraid something will happen, so I called you quickly to tell you."
"What's the matter? So urgent?" Haoran was puzzled.
"Xiaobai, when you are in Shaanxi, be careful of the Li family's gangsters." At the end of the day, Xiaoyun couldn't help but warn: "Sh City is a big city, they don't dare to mess around, and the security in the west is already chaotic.
, if the Li family wants someone to disappear out of thin air, it won’t be too difficult.”
"Disappeared out of thin air?" Haoran shuddered.
"Don't underestimate the Li family. Why don't you go back to SH City first? As for the formation of a team of production players, we can contact you by phone." Xiaoyun suggested: "After everything is ready, I will arrange for people to do the follow-up work.
.”
"No way? The Li family has a big business, so they would take action against a little person like me?" Haoran didn't believe in the viciousness of the Li family, but he couldn't think of any big reason that would make it worth the risk for the Li family.
Get rid of yourself?
"Don't underestimate your own power." Situ Muyun's voice on the phone sounded extremely cautious. She said, "I told you that the Li family has invested huge sums of money to enter the virtual industry, and Wuji is their first step.
During the game, we repeatedly opposed them
, they have suffered a lot of losses. Luo Tiancheng and I, they can't move for the time being; Qingqing and Bad Cowboy, on the one hand, keep a low profile, and on the other hand, they are also people with backgrounds, so they can't make a move. If they want to vent their anger, they can finally
It is possible that they will extend their black hands to you."
"Woof woof~" When Xiao Yun said this, the big black dog appeared in front of Haoran at some point and barked twice as if it was serious. The way it shook its head seemed to say: "Is she right?
wrong."
"Go, go, you know how to make fun of me!" Haoran kicked the black dog away, thinking to himself, why did you come here to join in the fun?
"Who are you talking about?" Xiaoyun was thousands of miles away, so naturally he couldn't see the mischievous dog here. On the other end of the phone, he heard what he had painstakingly said was called "blunting" by Haoran.
Suddenly the tone went up a notch.
"Xiaoyun, I didn't tell you..." Haoran suddenly realized something was wrong. While begging for mercy on the phone, he glared at Black Dog fiercely.
"Woof, woof~" The black dog licked the head on its tail and barked even more happily, as if to say: "It deserves it. Who told you to kick our ass?"
"You didn't talk about me, then who are you talking about?" Xiaoyun was obviously a little angry, but after a few seconds he couldn't help but care and said: "You should come back quickly. If the Li family finds you, you will really be in trouble!"
"Right now, my fellow villagers are almost being driven out to live on the streets. How can I leave like a normal person?" Haoran smiled bitterly and said, "Just wait a few more days."
"Safety is important!" Xiaoyun made a last-ditch effort.
"Li Tiannan is not here, so his second uncle must not be able to figure out who I am." Haoran said this, but he felt a little uneasy in his heart. He was not worried because he had many grudges with Li Tiannan, but regretted that he should not have been so quick-talking during the day.
He said he knew the second-generation ancestor of the Li family. If his second uncle really picked up the clues and found out that he was a big stumbling block for the Li family to enter the virtual industry, then the situation would be really bad.
"Then...you can stay for another three days, but be careful." Xiaoyun saw that he was determined not to, and it was not convenient to force him too much, so he had to remind him: "Li Tiannan is checking your identity recently, and Wang Meixi is here.
I am afraid……"
She understood the next words even if she didn't tell Haoran. After all, Wang Meixi had been her classmate for four years and knew a lot of information about him. It was not difficult to find out his birthplace.
"I will be careful. I will definitely come back in three days." Haoran said solemnly.
"Okay, I have something else to do, so I'll hang up the phone first. The system has 12 hours of maintenance time. You can make full use of this time and arrange what you want to do." Xiaoyun finally said.
"Thank you, I will do it." Haoran promised.
During dinner, my father still seemed unable to forget the scene that happened during the day. He looked very worried. Haoran wanted to comfort him, but couldn't think of what to say.
Although Situ Muyun promised to do his best to help, the power of the Li family cannot be underestimated. Even if everything goes well, the results may be seen in three or two days.
"Of course, dad, you ate too little tonight." Although the mother was also worried about things in the village, for a woman, her husband and son are more important than anything else. She saw her husband eating just a little bit.
She sighed while eating the food without knowing it, with an anxious look on her face.
"That's right, Dad. Try this, Mom's cooking is really mouth-watering." Haoran picked up a piece of chicken and put it in his father's bowl.
"Alas~" My father pushed away the rice bowl and sighed again, "Now we still have chicken to eat, but maybe in two months we won't even have a chicken coop to live in."
"Dad, don't say that, there will definitely be a way." Haoran comforted, but unexpectedly he caught a glimpse of his father's white hair trembling under the light that was not too bright, which made him feel a surge in his heart.
A sad feeling.
"Oh~" My father still sighed one after another.
"Father, let's eat first. I feel that even if my friend can't help, the government may not care about everyone's life and death and sell the land to the Li family." Haoran knew that his father had always had a negative attitude toward the government and the Communist Party.
I have a great good impression and can only comfort him from this aspect.
"Of course, you don't understand. Our village is too poor. We have always relied on government subsidies, otherwise running water and electricity would not be available." The father said, "The government is also suffering. There is no extra money to support this village.
people."
"We can start our own business!" Haoran said: "If we don't rely on the government, we won't be a drag on the business."
"It's easier said than done. Look, there are many older people in this village, and they can't do the physical work of going out to work." The father shook his head.
"I'm talking about starting my own business, not working for others!" Haoran said.
"What are you doing? Just like you, playing games every day? How about buying two pieces of equipment and selling them for money?" His father glared at him and said, "Do you want to tell everyone in the village to be as idle as you?"
"There is nothing wrong with being a professional gamer." Haoran was dissatisfied, and sighed in his heart. After all, his father was still dissatisfied with his job.
"Of course, it's not what mother said." My mother also intervened in the conversation. What she said was very pertinent and said: "Young people like you can just make money by playing games. Do you want older people to do it?"
Also spend all day in games?"
Mother's words made Haoran silent. Yes, the total number of young people in the village is only more than thirty. Most of the villagers are about the same age as their parents, or even older than him. They have worked hard all their lives, and most of them have nothing.
After going to school, how can they play online games if they don't even know a few big characters?
My father stopped eating and smoked cigarettes continuously. The frown on his forehead seemed to be getting deeper.
Haoran's eyes became uncomfortable. His eyes were scanning the room and suddenly fell on a circle of wood carvings on the cabinet.
"There is a way!" He exclaimed in surprise: "Don't everyone in our village have the skill of carving? Why not start a business with this?"
"Carving?" My father was stunned.
"Yes, young people can carve stone, and older people can do wood carving." Haoran said with bright eyes: "If you run the business well and open up sales, you will not only have enough food and clothing, but also make a lot of money."
"If you carve it out, someone has to buy it." My father didn't say no this time.
"Of course no one in poor rural areas will want these, but in big cities, there are many tourists." Haoran was full of confidence. He thought of the two stone lions erected in front of Situ Muyun's villa. He heard that they were the works of a certain master sculptor.
It’s worth hundreds of thousands!
Of course, he is not so crazy that he thinks that the works produced in his village can be compared with that master - even if the skills are comparable, how can he be famous? He is not a child anymore, and naturally knows that many famous people are famous.
Rich people only buy expensive things, not the right ones, and they should not be too idealistic in everything.
Despite this, Haoran is still confident that if the village's carving products are packaged and properly promoted, there will definitely be sales.
"If you really want to be able to do this, there is a way." Father nodded, looked at Haoran with a hint of approval in his eyes, and said: "Of course, you have been to a big city and have seen the world, this matter...
…”
"I'll find a way to open the factory." Haoran quickly answered and said, "But this organization of personnel may require you to take action."
"That's not a problem. I'll talk to the village chief soon and ask him to come forward and organize the good people in the village." The father agreed immediately.
"Then I'll go to the city tomorrow and apply to register an engraving factory." Haoran finished his meal and felt very good.
