Chapter 1098 If you want to say this, I wont be sleepy anymore
The sun sets in the west.
While Mike was having a meeting, Lin Fan was already sitting at the barbecue stall with Mr. Zhang and Xingye.
In order not to attract attention, Lin Fan and the other three changed into casual clothes before leaving. Xingye also took off the black gauze covering her face, revealing her pure and sweet face.
Facts have proved that without military uniforms, the three of them did not attract attention. Sitting at the barbecue stall looked like a grandfather taking his grandchildren to eat and play.
The setting sun has gradually disappeared, leaving only the last ray of red light on the horizon, and the sky is painted with a dark blue curtain.
The city is gradually sinking into the night, with neon lights lighting up. Leisurely shop owners may be sitting in front of the door chatting, while busy bosses are soliciting customers.
School was over at the nearby elementary school, and a group of children were laughing and walking home with their friends under the direction of the teacher.
One parent was holding a dish in his right hand and holding his child in his left hand, asking what he had learned today.
Some couples drove away with their children in their cars, and some children could not move in front of the food stalls, handing over their precious pocket money.
The street lights are on, illuminating all kinds of things in the world.
Lin Fan watched all this quietly. These ordinary scenes were the best scenery for Lin Fan.
Xingye and Mr. Zhang didn't say anything, they just sat there and watched this scene.
"Here we come!" the owner of the barbecue restaurant interrupted the silence of everyone, and placed a large amount of fragrant barbecue on the table in front of Lin Fan.
The three of them came to their senses. Lin Fan took a skewer of grilled mammoth pork belly and chewed it slightly. The crispy pork belly exploded instantly, filling his mouth with fragrant oil.
"Eat less fatty food, it is not good for the cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases." Mr. Zhang was more health-conscious. He took a bunch of roasted corn and chewed it carefully. He squinted at the busy traffic in front of him and said with a smile: "To be honest, I am standing on the Great Steel Wall.
, when we were fighting sea beasts and gods, we still didn’t realize how great what we were doing was.”
"But when I am in this city, I see the lights of thousands of houses, the crowds of people, and the children playing."
"I suddenly felt that what we were doing was really meaningful."
Lin Fan also nodded, which revealed what was in his heart.
When we shout on the Great Steel Wall to protect our country and protect our country, and those who shout will be punished, it is just a stream of hot blood.
And after experiencing all this, standing in this city again, looking at the thousands of lights, that passion turned into a force from the heart.
"If one day, the coming of the gods really ends, I might also open a barbecue stall like this, and the stall name will be Shura Barbeque stall. Well, the Poseidon puppet doesn't need a salary, and it doesn't eat, drink or sleep.
If you're tired, you can wear strings all day long..." Lin Fan fantasized for a moment, then said: "Mr. Zhang, what about you? What are you going to do?"
"Me? I'm sixty-two this year, what else do you expect me to do?" Mr. Zhang was speechless, "Of course it's to retire and take care of my grandson at home!"
Lin Fan was stunned: "You have a child!"
"How new is it? I can't have children yet! In a few months, my grandson will be born!" Mr. Zhang looked confused and was stunned when he was asked.
Lin Fan suddenly remembered his parents. Speaking of which, the last time they met was half a year ago. The old couple took the time to visit the Great Steel Wall.
After that, more and more things happened, and there was no time to see each other.
Lin Fan took out his mobile phone and wanted to make a call, but suddenly he was stunned and stared blankly at an old man on the roadside.
"What's wrong?" Xingye noticed the change in Lin Fan's eyes.
Lin Fan looked strange and said, "I seem to have seen...my grandfather?"
"Ah? You can meet this?" Xingye turned around to look, but saw nothing, so he had to urge: "Hurry up and let grandpa come over and eat together!"
"But my grandfather has been missing for forty years." Lin Fan said with a confused look.
Xingye was stunned for a moment: "Have you been missing for forty years? Your grandfather? Did you meet him here?"
Lin Fan just wanted to take a closer look, but when a bus passed by, the old man who was standing on the roadside smiling at him had disappeared.
"Maybe I saw it wrong. I just glanced through the gap in the crowd for just a moment." Lin Fan then looked back and explained: "My grandfather did disappear. When my grandmother was just pregnant, he
Just disappeared."
"I've only seen him in old photos."
"The only impression I have of him is... there is a knife made of bones in the barn in my hometown. It was made by tying some broken bones together with a rough leather rope. My dad said that it was used by my grandfather for hunting in his early years.
Knife. I played with it when I was a child and sharpened it. I liked it very much, but later I lost it for no reason... I clearly remember that I put it in the warehouse. Now that I think about it, it must have been stolen by someone, but
Who stole such a bone-breaking knife?"
"Your grandfather is a hunter?" Xingye asked curiously. She had never heard Lin Fan talk about these things before.
"Well, he is a hunter. My grandma also said before she was alive that my grandpa often went into the mountains to hunt and would disappear for several months. He would come home every now and then for a few days. When he came back, he would smell of blood and bring a big bag of fur and meat with him. Later.
When my grandma was pregnant, my grandpa said he was going to hunt a big game. After giving grandma some nutrition, he completely disappeared." Lin Fan said, "I have also seen photos of him, he has a very strong physique."
"About forty years old, before I met my grandma, he was an old bachelor," Lin Fan recalled the photo, "but he was very manly, with a scar on his face, and a burly body, like a bear."
"Although he is a bit old and his temples are all white, his eyes are very firm. The photo is blurry, but his eyes... can even be said to be violent."
"It should be because he has been hunting all year round, and he can even feel murderous. At first glance, he is a very difficult man to mess with. But my grandma said that he has a warm smile and is very polite in dealing with others. He just seems to be a little mentally ill.
Occasionally he can be arrogant, but as long as he goes hunting in the mountains once and comes back, he will be fine."
Lin Fan recalled the photo in his memory and the old man in his forties who was wearing a leather jacket and was a bit old but unusually burly. He felt more and more similar.
"Maybe I'm overthinking it. Even if he is still alive, after forty years, he would be over eighty years old." Lin Fan shook his head.
The more Xingye listened, the more curious she became: "Do you still have the photos?"
"No more." Lin Fan recalled: "It seems that when I was seven or eight years old, someone suddenly came to investigate the disappearance case. After asking about it, they took the photos away."
"That's a pity, otherwise I would also like to see it." Xingye felt a little regretful.
Seeing that the topic was getting a bit heavy, Lin Fan quickly changed the topic and praised the boss, who came over holding another handful of skewers: "Boss, your craftsmanship is really good."
"Hey, look at what you said, how many years has it been open!" The boss laughed, "I'm telling you, you are here today, and in a few days, you won't be able to eat anything you want!"
"Is it going to go bankrupt?" Lin Fan was stunned.
"Curse me, right?" the boss complained. Seeing that Lin Fan didn't really mean it, he pointed to the Changbai Mountains not far away: "Have you seen that? In a few days, construction of the Great Wall of the North will begin there.
,do you know?"
"I know..." Lin Fanxin said that not only did I know, but I even proposed it, and asked curiously: "Then you quit this barbecue stall?"
"You know a hammer!" the boss cursed, then smiled: "This is a big project! Let me tell you, by then, 50 to 60 million soldiers will come to build it, and various construction teams will also come!"
"Even if they have a canteen, who wouldn't want to have some midnight snacks and barbeque every now and then?"
"Moreover, there is a huge shortage of manpower in Daxia right now. The wages for soldiers and construction teams are extremely high! Even the recruitment of workers now costs more than 10,000 yuan a month!"
"What is this? This is a high-quality customer!"
"Who is still doing barbecue here? I will sell barbecue under the Great Wall in the north. I will make more money! On the one hand, I can make money while standing, and I can still help the soldiers solve their daily needs. This can be regarded as a contribution to the country!
"
The boss was so happy with what he said that he pinched his waist and pointed at the country: "I tell you, the pattern must be big! The construction of the Great Wall in the North is not only to defend against enemies. Do you know how good this thing is for the people? How useful it is for the economy.
?"
"Brick and tile factories, construction workers, metallurgical factories, not to mention how good their business is now! The clothing industry and all kinds of messy industries have also taken off."
"Let's talk about something related to ordinary people. For the construction of the Great Steel Wall, they are short of manpower. The wages they give are low, so the workers are unwilling to go. We can't all blame the workers for their contribution to the country.
."
"The same goes for soldiers. They are risking their lives to fight against the gods. Therefore, they have to pay a high salary, at least more than 10,000 yuan a month!"
"With so many people, they need to eat and drink. The soldiers must not just eat in the canteen every day. There must also be barbecues, food stalls, and milk tea!"
"Wouldn't this boost the economy? And not only the wages of soldiers and workers have increased, but think about it, the bosses are also making money because they are recruiting workers with high salaries. Do they also need to increase their wages?"
"If we don't increase wages, we might as well go to the Great Steel Wall to lift bricks! So even ordinary people have money!"
"For example, I have a cousin who was building the Great Steel Wall in the east last year. He bought milk tea directly from the milk tea shop in the city, and then took it directly to the Great Steel Wall and sold it to the soldiers. He paid ten yuan per cup.
Sold for thirteen dollars."
"The result is a thousand cups a day and a profit of three thousand a day! Good guy, I can build a house in one year! The soldiers are very happy, the milk tea shop is also very happy, and my cousin is also very happy, win-win-win-win!"
"I heard from my cousin that there are stalls selling barbecue under the Great Steel Wall. The smell of barbecue is so strong that in the middle of the night, soldiers and workers who have been tired for a day smell it and have to buy dozens of skewers."
"And you don't have to pay rent. In addition to the military area, there is a large area of wasteland under the Great Steel Wall, which you can't even use up!"
"We don't make dirty money, so we sell them at a fair price. There are so many soldiers. There are 50 million soldiers and workers, and all of them receive high wages! Everyone who sells barbecue at the stalls under the Great Steel Wall is making crazy money.
Well, even if it costs seven to eight thousand to hire a waiter, there is still no one available there. Anyone with some physical strength will work as a worker to move bricks. In the end, a waiter will earn more than ten thousand a month, but even so,
My boss makes a lot of money!"
"The key is to earn fame. After all, this is grilling skewers for the soldiers. Saying this makes you aware!"
"I'm not telling you any lies. We here used to be envious of the eastern region. Many people went there to make money!"
"It's okay now. We are going to build the Great Wall of the North here too. Baishan City, which used to be quiet, is much more lively. Did you see that all the pedestrians on the road are beaming with joy? Go out and look at the highway next to it.
Trucks are full of supplies, the ports are full of sea monsters unloading goods, 56 million soldiers are now in the mountains, and it is finally our turn to get rich in the north!"
Lin Fan was stunned for a moment while Xingye and Mr. Zhang also looked stunned.
Although the three of them are all gods of Daxia, they are not good at people's livelihood. They usually only think about how to kill gods.
Unexpectedly, the construction of the Great Steel Wall and the Great Northern Wall could have such a great effect on stimulating the economy.
Seeing that the three of them were surprised by his instructions, the boss immediately said with a smile: "So, your structure is too small and you cannot understand the general direction. In the future, you should learn more from the commander-in-chief. Otherwise, Lin Fan, a high school student, can
Becoming the commander-in-chief...Okay, let’s not talk anymore, I will continue to work. I will move out in a few days and go to the Great Wall in the north to grill the soldiers and workers."
Seeing the boss leaving, Lin Fan and Xingye, Mr. Zhang smiled helplessly.
The three gods of Daxia, including the commander-in-chief of Daxia, were actually said by a barbecue stall owner that their structure was too small.
"I don't know whether this is scolding me or praising me." Lin Fan scratched his head helplessly: "However, our situation is indeed small."
"Shang Weitian does have some tricks up his sleeve." Mr. Zhang also nodded: "Originally, I thought the common people were eating chaffy vegetables to build the Great Steel Wall, but now it seems that it has directly raised the national wage level..."
Of course, the fundamental reason is the rapid development of productivity in Daxia.
Otherwise, even if everyone has money, prices will rise and remain the same as before.
Now, with the arrival of the gods, this land has become more and more vibrant.
Xingye lowered his head silently and said: "Actually, every day I go to the Great Steel Wall to eat barbecue secretly... I can't help it, those bosses are very bad, they grill in the middle of the night, and the smell is... After so many battles last year,
I also gained two pounds."
Lin Fan: "..."
Not long after, the three of them had eaten and drank enough and paid the bill.
"Where to go next?" Lin Fan stroked his full belly and looked at the streets that were busier than before.
Mr. Zhang shook his head: "Don't ask me, at my age, I haven't gone out to play at night in how many years."
None of the three of them are players who go out to play at night.
After the advent of the gods started, Lin Fan was busy at the Great Steel Wall every day, and fell asleep when he was tired.
Before it started, Lin Fan was a good student, honest and obedient, studying hard every day, going home early at night, and going to bed on time.
I haven't even been to a bar.
As a descendant of an ancient sect, Xingye has been strictly trained by his father since he was a child. He trains to exhaustion every day. His boring life remains unchanged. Why do you still want to go out to play in the middle of the night?
Mr. Zhang won't go into details. When he was young, he might have gone out for fun, but from middle age, he only thought about anatomy and medical knowledge every day. He was either reading information at home or performing dissections in the laboratory every night.
The three of them didn't know where to go next and stared at each other.
"Go for a massage? I heard it is a very popular way of leisure nowadays." Mr. Zhang suggested.
Lin Fan blushed slightly: "Is it the kind where I let other people's hands touch my body?"
"Why are you saying something so obscene when you say something that is obviously normal..." Mr. Zhang looked helpless.
Xingye also shook her head shyly, obviously unwilling to try.
Although both of them are gods of Daxia, they are neither more than twenty years old and are not used to this kind of adult leisure style.
"Forget it," Lin Fan objected: "If you really want to talk about massage, your skills are much better than that of a masseur. You are a medical expert who is proficient in various acupuncture points. Why spend that wasted money?"
"Good guy, this is the acupuncture sutra passed down from Hua Tuo. Are you using me as a masseur?" Although Mr. Zhang said this, he looked proud. He was obviously very pleased with this flattery. He nodded and said:
"But you're right. It's better to let others massage than to do it myself."
"How about taking a foot bath?" Mr. Zhang suggested again.
Lin Fan frowned and said: "By the way, I never understand why so many people like to soak their feet. What's so good about soaking their feet?"
"Yes," Xingye also looked curious, "Isn't it different if you use hot water to soak your feet at home? Why should you go to a store and spend money to find a separate room for someone to help you soak your feet?"
"Actually..." Mr. Zhang was about to speak, but seeing the innocent looks on their faces, he hesitated and finally sighed: "Forget it, don't go."
Looking at the young girl in front of him, Mr. Zhang suddenly remembered how ignorant he was when he was young, and felt quite emotional in his heart.
Young people, once you experience some things, you can't look back.
It’s great to know nothing.
Do you really think that foot bathing is just foot bathing...
The three of them looked at each other, not knowing what to do next, and even began to consider whether to go back to the camp and go to bed early.
suddenly.
Xingye looked at the crowd on the street curiously: "Where are they going?"
The crowd surged, almost like flowing water towards the next street.
You can vaguely hear the loud music from the street next door.
Lin Fan also looked there curiously. Indeed, there were many people walking there.
"Over there," the owner of the busy barbecue restaurant suddenly chuckled: "Go and have a look, there is a nightclub street that just opened recently, it's exciting inside! It's much more exciting than before! It's exciting like you can't think of!
"
Lin Fan, who was starting to feel sleepy, suddenly became energetic.
Stimulate?
If you want to say this, I won't be tired.
As the saying goes, if I don’t go to hell, who will?
What kind of sin is unleashed? I want to see how exciting it can be!
