Return to 1983 and be a detective

With the song "Unforgettable Tonight", the party finally came to an end.

The villagers in Xujia Village were still unsatisfied. They slowly moved back with chairs and stools.

Xu Guoli and Jin Zhi's eldest daughter, Ling Dang, helped Xu Shan clean the yard. They ate melon seeds and smoked cigarettes that night, and a layer of melon seed shells had already accumulated in the yard.

Originally this was the job of the older and younger sisters, but Xu Guoli and the others were rushing to do it, and Xu Shan didn't want to stop it.

He knows that this is a way for children to express their gratitude. If you don't let them do it, you will look alienated from them.

Will stimulate children's self-esteem.

And Xu Shan felt that he needed to protect his child's self-esteem.

Let everyone live with dignity, this is also a concept Xu Shan wants to implement after his rebirth.

When the children finished sweeping up the melon seed shells and moved them away with a dustpan, Xu Shan stuffed each of them with a handful of White Rabbit toffee.

The children took the candies and left happily. Xu Shan and Fang Yongjun moved the TV back to the house and cleaned it up again. Unknowingly, it was already two o'clock in the morning.

The eldest sister and the younger sister were both extremely sleepy, but they were still holding on.

This is staying up late on New Year's Eve. You can't sleep on the night of New Year's Eve.

Xu Shan couldn't help but find it funny to see them with heavy eyelids and drooped heads as they took a nap and tried hard to stay awake.Although these two sisters are usually so sensible that it makes people feel distressed, they are more sensible than adults, but they are still two children after all.

In his previous life, his family's life was so difficult, but in this life, Xu Shan would never let his family live such a hard life.

He will give them a better environment, let them complete their studies, let them do what they want to do, and be themselves.

Although this seems very simple, in this world and in this era, it is really rare to be able to do what you like and be your own person.

Walking outside the house, looking at the pure and unpolluted night sky, Xu Shan silently lit a cigarette.

After thinking about it, he lit two more cigarettes and stuck the three cigarettes on the ground.

Three cigarettes are like three sticks of incense, and the smoke is curling up.

Xu Shan didn't believe in ghosts and gods, but he inserted these three sticks of incense sincerely. This was to pay tribute to his predecessor and thank him for leaving such a precious family to him, so that he, a lonely otaku, could feel the family affection after his rebirth. I felt a deep concern.

This is also the motivation for him to forge ahead. People will become stronger only after they are tied.

……

After all, Xu Shan failed to keep the New Year's Eve. He was woken up by the sound of firecrackers in the morning.

When he got up, he saw that it was Fang Yongjun, under the command of his younger sister, setting off a string of earth reds and a few more kicks at the same time.

The quality of firecrackers these days is really good, the sound is crisp and loud, but the smell is also strong after being let go.

Xu Shan, who was woken up, was in a bad mood and a little irritated to get up, but he also understood that this was the rule of Longshui people. On the morning of the New Year, firecrackers need to be set off, and the earlier you get up, the more it represents the new year. Prosperous wealth this year.

As a result, people in the village got involved one after another, going from house to house to compete with who could get up earlier, and the sound of firecrackers also continued one after another.

I have to say that the atmosphere is really lively and full of New Year flavor. Unlike in later generations, although there is also the custom of setting off firecrackers early, everyone has subjectively determined that the new day starts at zero o'clock, so everyone does not rush to get up early. Setting off firecrackers at midnight was a perfunctory task.

Once this all evolves into a process, it loses its original meaning.

New Year's breakfast consists of steamed buns, steamed cakes, and rice dumplings. There is nothing new. Every family has these. The steamed buns are steamed buns with chopped green onions, and the rice dumplings are meat dumplings.These steamed buns and rice dumplings are Long Shui's specialties, but not unusual. Xu Shan has also eaten them at food stalls, but the taste is not as good as the ones made at home, and the ingredients are not so particular.

Only this steamed cake was really the first time for Xu Shan to eat it.

Since his rebirth, he has been staying on the farm. The farm celebrates the New Year, but there are not so many things to pay attention to. At most, I can add some vegetables to improve the food. However, the food on this farm is not much better than pig food. His strength is limited, where can I get him some cakes?

After going down the mountain, there was really no place selling Fa Gao on the market. Now, unlike later generations, Fa Gao has not yet embarked on the commercialization route, and no one is selling Longshui Xiaolong Gao nationwide.

This cake was sweet, soft and glutinous, with the aroma of wine, and a little lard. It was delicious and not greasy in the mouth. Xu Shan ate four or five pieces and still felt that he was still satisfied.He didn't bother to use chopsticks, so he took a piece in one hand and ate it hungrily.

The eldest sister and the younger sister couldn't help but snicker when they saw Xu Shan like this.

Only then did Xu Shan realize that his eating appearance was indeed a bit ugly. He quickly praised: "This cake is so delicious."

"This is cooked by Uncle Lin Qiang in the village. Uncle Lin Qiang knows that our family can't cook, so he helps us cook two baskets every year. This year he cooked four baskets for our family."

Hearing what the eldest sister said, Xu Shan seemed to have some impression. Uncle Lin Qiang was also from the Lin generation. It was said that he was naughty when he was a child. He went up a tree to dig out a bird's nest and broke a leg. As a result, he has been single until now, and he can't do it. Heavy physical work, you can only help others cook some cakes, buy some wine, and eat a bowl of handmade rice.

But he is a very generous person. As long as he has it and as long as you want it, he will keep nothing for himself and give it all to you.

Uncle Lin Qiang was very kind to Xu Shan's family. It was said that he had been kind to Xu Shan's parents, so he treated their family with all his heart.

Isn't that right? He obviously has a small business making cakes himself, but he directly gave Xushan's four baskets of cakes as a gift.

Xu Shan is now qualified, but he has not repaid Uncle Lin Qiang yet.

"Why didn't you see Uncle Lin Qiang yesterday?" Xu Shan asked curiously.

The eldest sister explained: "He came, watched for a while and then went back. He doesn't like crowded places."

"I see. By the way, where does Uncle Lin Qiang live? I have to go and wish him a happy new year." Xu Shan said, carrying two bottles of good wine, a good cigarette, and a large piece of pork from home. Under the guidance of my eldest sister, I arrived at Uncle Lin Qiang’s house.

The yard of Uncle Lin Qiang's house is quite large, and it is kept very clean. However, he is the only one living in such a large place.

At this time, he was drinking in the courtyard and listening to the radio box. The box contained storytelling, which he listened to with great interest.The old-fashioned grand master's chair creaked when he shook it, but it was really comfortable.

Seeing Xu Shan coming, Uncle Lin Qiang stood up quickly.

Xu Shan put the cigarettes, wine, and meat on Uncle Lin Qiang's side beside the Grand Master's chair, and said with a smile: "Uncle, your skill in cooking cakes is really amazing. The cakes are so delicious."

"No, my cake flour is different from others. I use a pulp grinder, sugar, and the ratio of glutinous rice flour to rice flour. I also have a secret. Then I add the wine I use to make my own wine. It will be hot. It’s delicious.”

Uncle Lin Qiang spoke eloquently. Obviously he was willing to listen to praise from others, but few people would praise him to his face.

And now that he has been praised by "big shot" Xu Shan, he is extremely happy.

As he spoke, he slapped his forehead: "Look at me, since you love eating so much, I have two cages here, take them all for you."

Xu Shan waved his hand quickly: "Uncle Lin Qiang, you misunderstood. I didn't come here to get the cake."

"Oh, so you want me to make wine? Whether it's rice wine or shochu, I can make it clear for you."

"Uncle Lin Qiang, with your skills, have you ever thought about opening a factory?"

"Open a factory? What kind of factory? A winery?" Uncle Lin Qiang obviously didn't have this awareness and asked Xu Shan with wide eyes.

Xu Shan shook his head: "There are a lot of things like wine on the market. Although our rice wine is delicious, not many people recognize it without our Long Shui. It is not easy to sell it at a high price if it is burned with grain."

In fact, in the next few years, a bulk liquor brand became a household name because it stole the prime time spot on CCTV.But Xu Shan feels that is not the right way, and although liquor represents our country’s liquor culture, on a deeper level, it is the gift-giving culture that actually created the liquor industry.Xushan wants to lay out industries that can compete with foreign countries and prevent foreign countries from getting stuck. Naturally, they will not get involved in the liquor industry that is only recognized by our domestic people.

If you want to get involved, there is only one possibility, and that is to save a large amount of Maogongtai Liquor stocks in advance. Other than that, Xu Shan definitely does not want to be in the liquor business.
