Siheyuan: I can always stay out of it

Speaking of which, this was Chen Xu's first time riding in a car in this world, and the feeling was...very ordinary.

China currently does not have the ability to produce trucks, and today's heavy trucks are basically captured or supported by the Soviet Union. However, starting in the 60s, China and the Soviet Union parted ways, and the Soviet Union's supply of heavy vehicles to China was also interrupted.

That was a few years later. Nowadays, there are quite a few trucks in China, but they are generally only common in places like the military and transport teams.

But this is the old city, and the steel rolling mill also needs to use these things on a daily basis. There are still some transport teams, and you can apply for a vehicle when you need it.

The Russians' equipment has always been about being sturdy and durable, but the details are very different. Comfort and the like are basically not within the consideration of their designers.

If the road conditions here weren't quite good, it would probably have been a shaky ride.

Lin Chan was a little curious. It was also her first time riding in a truck, so she was a little excited.

The co-pilot seat can only accommodate two people, Chen Xu and Lin Chan in one, Director Chen and Section Chief Liu in another. The two comrades from the Security Department can only stay in the car.

The appearance of the two trucks attracted a lot of attention. All the people in Chenjia Village came out to look, but they didn't dare to come over. After all, the guns in the hands of the security department were shining brightly.

The village chief didn't breathe a sigh of relief until Chen Xu got off the car. He suspected from the beginning that it was Chen Xu who made the noise. After all, Chen Xu was the only one in Chenjia Village who usually stayed in the city.

I told the village chief about the situation, but he didn't think much about it, but his thoughts became more firm.

Linjia Village has started to find ways to increase its income, so Chenjia Village must follow suit.

Raising poultry must be implemented as soon as possible.

Chen Xu had known that there would probably be a lot of people, so when he came back from Linjia Village this time, he paddled a large bamboo raft to avoid having to make several trips. After all, he had the experience of carrying two burdens once, so he could naturally think of this little thing.

On the bamboo raft, Section Chief Liu was still in the mood to ask Chen Xu about the situation in the mountains.

Chen Xu was speechless. This guy really came here to purchase goods.

"Chief, there is something I need to say first. If you see my wife's pet, you must not do anything."

Section Chief Liu didn't care. Could he be so greedy as to use the little girl's pet as food?

Until Chen Xu said that Lin Chan's pet was a tiger...

The people on the bamboo raft looked confused, and Section Chief Liu wondered if he was hallucinating.

"Can you say that again?"

"Uh, tiger, blue and black."

Section Chief Liu looked at Lin Chan who was paddling the bamboo raft. It was hard to imagine that such a little girl would keep a tiger as a pet.

He knew that there were blue-black tigers in Yanshan, but no matter what color they were, they were still tigers after all. He had never seen anyone who kept a tiger as a pet in his entire life.

"Okay, I see."

Section Chief Liu was still a little bit unconvinced, but it was impossible for Chen Xu to make up such a thing. Now that the time was almost here, the truth would naturally be revealed.

"Your hometown is really quite remote."

Although Director Chen also found it incredible, he did not think much about it. He looked at the increasingly dense woods on both sides of the river bank and sighed.

Chen Xu said that he didn't have much idea about how remote his hometown was before, but now it seems that it is not remote at all, it is completely in the mountains.

Many people in Linjia Village have been waiting in the village. After discussing with the old village chief yesterday, the old village chief has already notified the able-bodied men in the village. The only problem is that catching fish may be a bit troublesome. After all, although the village has nets, they are obviously not enough for a large pond of water.

The old village chief breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the big net brought by several people. Before he could say anything, Section Chief Liu's eyes widened.

"Old squad leader?"

The old village chief turned around and looked at Section Chief Liu. He was old and his eyesight wasn't very good. He hadn't noticed the other people just now, but when he saw clearly now, he was a little surprised.

"Dog, why are you here?"

Chief Liu: ...

"Squad leader, can you please stop calling me by my nickname..."

Chen Xu next to him almost burst out laughing. He looked at Section Chief Liu with a strange look and said, "Your nickname is quite down-to-earth."

People usually call him Goudan, Gousheng or something like that, but you just call him Gouzi.

The old village chief didn't expect that he knew Section Chief Liu, but it wasn't that surprising. He knew that many people in Linjia Village returned after the Anti-Japanese War. He just didn't expect it to be such a coincidence that they just happened to know each other.

It was much easier to get along with others when we had acquaintances. The old village chief also wanted to go to the mountains to see the situation, so we decided to go together.

A group of people went up the mountain in a mighty procession. Along the way, Chen Xu listened to Section Chief Liu and the old village chief talking about the glorious days of the past. He felt a little emotional. Nowadays, there are really too many people who have been to the battlefield.

"Ouch!"

When they were almost at the water pond, Xiao Hei's roar was already heard. Obviously, a tiger's sense of smell and hearing are far superior to those of humans. If it hadn't discovered Lin Chan, Chen Xu and some familiar villagers among them, it would have run away long ago.

"Don't scream, just lie down and be at ease."

Lin Chan was a little anxious, fearing that this guy would go berserk if he saw a stranger, so he dodged and rushed out.

Section Chief Liu's eyes lit up.

"Old squad leader, this girl?"

Lin Chan's speed just now shocked everyone. They almost didn't even see how the little girl flew out.

"Don't think about it. Now is not the time for war."

"Uh, yes."

Chief Liu had seen the old village chief beat an enemy to death on the battlefield. The blow was so strong that it could directly make a hole in the enemy's head. This level of expert is rare in the army.

Xiao Hei, who was held down by Lin Chan, became quiet and tilted his head to look at the strangers.

Director Chen looked at Lin Chan and Xiao Hei, and then at Chen Xu with a different look in his eyes. He didn't expect that I would have such a powerful general under my command...

Chen Xu was speechless. What's wrong with the way you look at the Warriors?

He didn't think much about it and started telling everyone to get started.

There were only four people from the steel rolling mill who came with them. After all, the truck needed someone to watch over it, and the two drivers didn't come, so the main force in fishing was still the people from Linjia Village.

It is hard to tell what is going on in the pond now, as it is cold and the fish are not active much. But he is not panicked, as he put quite a few fish in there yesterday.

The villagers were very motivated. After all, they had a share of the fish here. This was what the old village chief said himself. This also caused many people to feel embarrassed when they saw Chen Xu.

The villagers are simple and honest, and this kind of taking advantage makes them feel like they are taking other people's things for free.

Chen Xu, who had originally planned to go into the water to help, was forcibly persuaded to stop. The villagers felt that they had taken great advantage and were already embarrassed, so how could they let Chen Xu go into the water to work?

So now Chen Xu, the old village chief, Section Chief Liu, and Director Chen are all watching. Even Lin Chan and two other comrades from the Security Department have gone to help. Even if they don't go into the water, they can still pull down the nets on both sides.

Director Chen was speechless when he saw Chen Xu petting the tiger nearby. He had never seen such a brave man. Just now, he was so excited to see the prey that he wanted to touch the tiger, but he was almost bitten by Xiao Hei.

Obviously, Xiao Hei is a pet in the eyes of Linjia Village, but to other people he is a real beast, the kind that eats people.

He now understood why Chen Xu was able to get wild game. With just the tough guys in this village, as long as there were prey in the mountains, there was nothing they couldn't catch...
