The car was padded with bricks and it couldn't be driven even if I wanted to.
Poor mountains and rivers bring out unruly people, and Chen Wei never expected to encounter such a thing.
Zhao Xin was also very angry. How long had it been since they entered? The car's tires were gone. This was outrageous.
Zhao Xin called the supplier, and the supplier also called his friend.
After a while, Zhao Xin's cell phone rang. It was a call from a friend of the supplier.
"Mr. Zhao, I'm really sorry. I didn't expect such a thing to happen. I have already called our village director, and he will come to you at the entrance of the village right away. Don't worry, I will definitely give you a solution for this matter."
Accounted for."
Zhao Xin was talking on the phone when he saw an old man in his fifties or sixties walking over.
The old man walked in a majestic manner. The villagers standing on the roadside watching the excitement greeted the old man respectfully in their native dialect, probably indicating that they had finished their meal.
The old man just nodded slightly and walked straight towards Chen Wei and the others.
Seeing Chen Wei's car, the old man hurriedly said: "I'm really sorry. I am the village director of this village. It is my responsibility to have such a thing happen. In this way, it is getting dark today. I will arrange for you to stay there tomorrow.
I will definitely find a way to find the car tires for you, what do you think?"
"This is the only way." Zhao Xin was a little reluctant, but there was no other way.
The village director took them and walked towards his home.
The village chief's house is the best in the village, a three-story small foreign-style building with a good location.
When I first met the village director, I felt that he was a little different from other villagers.
The village director was very enthusiastic to Chen Wei and the others and introduced himself. It turned out that the village director used to be a foreman. He had been a foreman in the city for more than ten years. He had enough money and bought a house for his children in the city.
He built a three-story small foreign-style building at home. During the election two years ago, he became the village director. Over the years, he has always wanted to lead everyone to make a fortune.
It's just that their place is too remote.
It has not been developed for so many years. The road leading to the entrance of the village was built after he spent a lot of effort over the years.
When I entered the yard, I saw that a table had been set up in the yard, and there were some farm side dishes on the table.
"Let's eat together! There is no good hospitality in the countryside, but the wine I brew is fruit wine made by myself. It tastes very good." The village chief said, pouring a glass for each of Chen Wei and Zhao Xin.
liquor.
Chen Wei took a sip and it was really delicious.
The side dishes on the table were all ordinary home-style stir-fried dishes. When Chen Wei took a bite, the taste was different.
The village director smiled and said: "We grow all the vegetables here ourselves, and they are green and pollution-free."
Zhao Xin took a few bites and found it delicious.
Ordinary green vegetables are delicious when eaten in your mouth, and the twice-cooked pork is different from the meat eaten in the city.
"The meat you eat in the city is all pigs fed with feed. We feed the pigs here ourselves and never feed them. To tell you the truth, I have several houses in the city, but I like
If you stay here, the air will be good and the food will be safe. My two grandsons come to me during the holidays and refuse to leave," the village director said with a smile.
It can be seen that the village director can only have such a mentality if his family is harmonious.
After dinner, the village director took them to the third floor. There were guest rooms on the third floor, and each of Chen Wei and Zhao Xin was given a guest room.
"In our place, sometimes when the leaders from above come over, I will arrange to live in our home. Other villagers' homes do not have this condition. You can just make do with it!"
The room was very clean, not as good as a star hotel! It was still much cleaner than an average hotel.
Chen Wei and Zhao Xin stayed at the village director's house. Chen Wei always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't explain it.
The night in the mountain village seems particularly peaceful.
Chen Wei tossed and turned, unable to sleep, when there was a knock on the door.
Chen Wei got up, came to the door, opened the door, saw Zhao Xin, and said with a smile: "What? You can't sleep either?"
"It's so quiet here. I can hear the crickets chirping outside. I really can't sleep."
Chen Wei invited Zhao Xin in, and the two sat down. Chen Wei glanced outside: "Do you think what happened today is strange?"
"Are you talking about the car tires?"
"Yes! Not long after we came here, the car tires disappeared. There were so many people at the entrance of the village? It's impossible that no one saw it! If the village director asked the villagers, wouldn't everything be clear?
?”
"That's right! And
It's really strange that four tires disappeared in such a short period of time."
"There must be something weird here. Moreover, the village director's house has even prepared food and wine, as if he knew we would have dinner at his house."
"When you say that, I think so. You mean, the village director did it about the tires?" Zhao Xin was confused, "But why did he do this?"
"This guy used to be a foreman. People who are capable of being a foreman are generally not simple. Moreover, he is also the kind of foreman who makes a fortune. Look at his small mansion. It can't be built without hundreds of thousands.
, the situation of other villagers’ homes is far different, it would be very good to have a brick house.”
"You mean, he kept us here on purpose."
The car Chen Wei drove today is his favorite off-road vehicle. The village director must know the goods and know that those who can afford to drive such a car are usually big bosses.
"I think I guessed his intention." Chen Wei smiled lightly.
Zhao Xin nodded, she also understood.
This place belongs to a remote mountainous area. Over the years, the outside has undergone earth-shaking changes, but here it has remained the same for more than ten years, with no major changes.
Investors will definitely not invest here.
Finally, we saw two big bosses coming. The village director must have wanted to keep them here to invest.
"That's fine. Let him deal with that old gentleman tomorrow! Don't say anything for now and let's see how the village director acts."
The two chatted until late at night. Zhao Xin felt sleepy and went to bed.
Chen Wei also fell asleep. The next day, at dawn, he was woken up by the crow of roosters.
Living in a small village like this, there is no need for an alarm clock at all. The constant crow of chickens is so noisy that you can't sleep.
When Chen Wei and Zhao Xin got up, they saw a sumptuous steaming meal already placed there in the middle of the yard.
The two people looked at each other, smiled, and came down from the top together.
It tasted so good so early in the morning. It seemed that Chen Wei’s guess was right.
"I checked the tire matter until midnight last night, but there was no news at all. It should have been done by people from the next village. I will take time today to go to the next village to ask. I may have to trouble you to stay here for one more day."
Routine, this guy who has been working as a contractor outside for many years does have a routine.
