In the past, there were many traditional festival projects in the Leiming Mountain area.
Bullfighting, wrestling, horse racing, playing the reed, asking for flower belts, etc. all have obvious limitations and have not been able to flourish.
The village basketball game (also known as rural basketball) is widely accepted by villagers and is popular among villagers. After several generations of efforts, it has evolved into a "new traditional" project and has gradually reached its current scale.
For a long time, each village regarded the winning or losing of the basketball game as a direct expression of the village's cohesion. It was once so serious that if you lost, you had to kneel in the ancestral hall. As a result, the game process was extremely fierce, and conflicts and conflicts occurred from time to time.
, there were many armed fights, and incidents of bloodshed and injuries occurred from time to time.
Later, after coordination with the grassroots government, respected village sages from each village came forward to set a rule: "Anyone who causes trouble, disrespects the referee or gets into a fight will be blacklisted and exposed on the stadium, and will not be allowed to enter the stadium for life."
Compared with the original financial punishment of losing some meat, rice, and wine, not being allowed to enter the stadium is the most terrifying thing.
It not only means that the punished person cannot play football in the future, but also deprives the fun of watching football, leading to a gradual separation from the collective and falling into isolation.
The younger generation has not experienced this and does not know how serious the threat Shi Lang's words just said is.
Luo Gaozhan rolled up his sleeves to reveal his tattooed arms: "I see, this is not difficult, as long as we don't alert the government. I'll call the big brother in the city now and make sure Shi Lang shuts up.
"
"Nonsense!" Long Zaitian shouted and stood up angrily: "You still think the matter is not serious enough? Do you have to go to jail if it gets too big?"
It had been many years since everyone had seen Long Zaitian getting angry. Thinking of his reputation for fighting all over Thunder Mountain when he was young, they immediately fell silent.
Grandpa Wu waved his hand and asked Long Zaitian to sit down, and explained to the juniors kindly and charitablely: "On the surface, this matter is aimed at Xiaochuan, but in fact it is aimed at our village."
The older generation knew Shi Zhenxing too well.
This man is cunning and shrewd, and his every move is linked to profit. He sent his son to cause trouble for no reason, and he must have some plans for Lei Village.
Long Zaitian nodded in agreement: "I think so. If Shi Lang really wants revenge, he can just go to the government to file a complaint. Why do you have to come back and shout? You want me to come to negotiate terms. I will go to Yucun in the afternoon.
Take a trip."
Long Xiaochuan stepped forward: "Abba, I'll go with you!"
Pan Lei, Sun Changxing and others from the basketball team also followed suit: "We're going too!"
Long Zaitian laughed dumbly: "I'm not going to fight, why do I bring so many of you? I'll go myself."
Long Xiaomei was worried: "But if you go alone, what if they..."
"There is no such thing as an emergency. We are now a legal society. Can they still beat me? Shi Lang and two others dare to break into Leizhai village. After all, I am also the party secretary of Leizhai village and the leader of a village. I am not as good as three juniors?"
Long Zaitian was full of pride and his words were unquestionable.
After analysis by the older generation, everyone in Leizhai understood the abomination of Shi Lang's trip, and for a while they were all resentful and cursed...
Entrance to Yucun.
Shi Lang sneezed several times in succession.
He parked his motorcycle on the roadside and only now remembered to wear a helmet. He said he didn't want the villagers to see his embarrassing appearance with a bruised nose and face, and warned Xue Zhuang and Liu Dingding not to publicize the matter.
Xue Zhuang didn't understand: "Why can't you say it? I think we have accomplished a great feat today!"
Liu Dingding also nodded: "That's right. Our three brothers bravely broke into the enemy's camp, destroyed their basketball stand, and left safely in full view of the public. Isn't there a way of seizing the enemy general's leader from the rebel army?
It’s like picking something out of a bag?”
Xue Zhuang was excited and nodded wildly before Shi Lang could say anything: "Yes, yes, yes, that's how it feels. It's so damn good! Not many of our ancestors have done this. I can see it written in the village diary."
Genealogy, I will brag about it for several lifetimes!"
"Reckless man!" Shi Lang sneered: "What age are you in? Do you still only know how to be brave and fierce? Do you really think that I can make trouble just for the sake of showing off? Just wait and see the good show. If nothing else happens, the dragon will be in the field this afternoon.
You have to come and beg for mercy. Our real contribution to the village will be much greater than you think!"
After saying this one after another, he told the two of them to keep quiet, and then he went home to report to his father.
Shi Zhenxing looked at his son with a happy face: "Does it hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt, it's bearable."
"You have to complain that it hurts. Go to Xue Pinghe's house and borrow some purple liquid, safflower oil and other medicines to apply on the wound."
"Why do you want to go to his house...Oh, I understand, let's go now."
Shi Lang covered his head, bared his teeth and went to the village director's house to "ask for credit" in an exaggerated expression. Shi Zhenxing looked at the satellite map of Thunder Mountain on the wall, his face full of excitement and pride.
On his desk was a drafted "Thunder Mountain Cliff Bee and Wild Honey Brand Co-Building Cooperation Agreement".
In recent years, because the tourist road has only been built to the foot of the mountain, Yucun has almost exclusively enjoyed the tourism dividends of the entire western foothills of Leiming Mountain.
Many city people come here for sightseeing, picking, and experiencing farm life, which opens up markets for the village’s glutinous rice, fish sauce, straw weaving and other products. Even the fruits, vegetables and side dishes in front and behind the house can be exchanged for money.
However, these local products and agricultural products have two major shortcomings. First, they lack characteristics and are not unique to Yucun; second, they have low added value and cannot be sold at high prices.
As a result, the villagers' income has entered a bottleneck period, and Shi Zhenxing, as the leader of the village, has been under great pressure.
During yesterday's live broadcast of e-commerce to help farmers, he suddenly discovered that Yafeng wild honey was a high value-added specialty agricultural product that he had been searching for for many years, and he immediately became interested.
It doesn’t matter if Lei Zhai drinks the “Tou Yi Soup”, and it doesn’t matter if there is no honey source at the foot of the mountain. As long as we find a way to get Lei Zhai to hand over the golden signboard of “Thunder Cliff Bee Wild Honey”, Yucun can open a bee farm and make the honey industry bigger and stronger.
, and by the way, it can also suppress the rising momentum of Leizhai.
"Well, the afternoon negotiations have to pay attention to time, place and means."
He was convinced that Long Zaitian would come as soon as possible for his son's future, so he deliberately did not wait at the village committee, but went to his newly built basketball stadium.
Different from the open-air basketball court in the village, this is an indoor arena with a steel frame structure. It has two full courts and two half courts. The lower part is paved with double-layer wooden keel floors, and the upper part is equipped with professional lighting equipment, basketball hoops and various training equipment.
Hundreds of thousands invested.
The daily use of the arena is to hold children's basketball training classes. It serves as a closed training ground for the Yucun basketball team on the eve of large-scale competitions. It can also host some relatively professional regular competitions.
Taking advantage of the booming momentum of "village ba" in the past two years, although the arena is not making huge amounts of money every day, it is still a business that is sure to make money without losing money.
He just wanted Long Zaitian to see: "You and I have been fighting for half our lives, how are you doing with me? Look at the appearance of the village, look at my basketball gym, between you and me, between Leizhai and Yucun
