My 1995 Small Farm

  Chapter 551 on CCTV

   At night in the provincial capital, the scenery is no different from that in the city.

   It is nothing more than a bigger urban area, wider roads, more new buildings and higher buildings.

   But tonight is very lively.

  Many people gathered on both sides of the road in many places, and many people opened the windows of the residential buildings on both sides to look out.

  Looking carefully, it turned out that there was a young man riding a horse and leading two tigers to swagger through the city.

   Later, I didn’t see what happened, and suddenly another big eagle landed on the young man’s arm.

   There are many pigeons standing on the back of the horse.

  Aroused the crowd to exclaim one after another.

   But the young man seemed to dislike being surrounded by people. He lowered his hat and shook his clothes, and the pigeons on the horse's back fell obediently into the side pockets beside the horse as if by magic.

   Then the young man rode the eagle with one arm, and ran away with the tiger on horseback.

  According to people, they finally ran to the crayfish shop on the other side of the square.

  Many people saw it.

   Said that the young man knew the female owner of the crayfish shop.

Crayfish is a new food that looks delicious, but many people can’t afford it. They only know that it’s sold very well. It’s from the thousand-year-old turtle. Know how much money the female boss earns.

   They all said that this must be a tiger bought by someone who made money.

   to speculate on the degree of money.

  In an era when news is blocked, many things are the same as farmers speculating that the emperor used a golden hoe.

  In short, there are all kinds of weird rumors, even in the era of advanced Internet in later generations, let alone this time.

   It is completely changed when it is passed to the mouth of the next person.

   But no matter what, the business of the lobster shop has been extremely hot for many days in a row, and they are all coming to see and ask.

  …

   "You, you are really getting more and more prestigious now, riding a horse on the street and stalking a tiger, making you look like a dude."

  In the upstairs room of Xiaolong's store, Chen Ling and Sun Yanhong were talking here.

  Ah Fu Ah Shou was lying on the floor next to Chen Ling, panting slightly.

   They ran so far and so fast just now, but they were exhausted.

   "What a dude, I have a serious business, and I have official approval, okay?"

  Chen Ling rolled his eyes, stroked the feathers of the second bald man, and thought that this stupid bird didn't know when to follow, and flew over with pigeons from such a distance, and found that the pigeons were gone at home, so he didn't know why he was so anxious.

   "I know you're amazing... By the way, I'm afraid you don't even know it yourself. You've been on CCTV news."

  Sun Yanhong suddenly remembered this, and quickly turned on the TV news: "Look, if Yu Bangjin hadn't called me just now, I wouldn't know if I didn't watch TV."

  Chen Ling looked at the TV, and was stunned: "Damn it, isn't it... It's just killing a big wild boar. Why do CCTV join in the fun? Is there anything to report?"

  Especially when he clearly saw the news of the fight with the wild boar king on the TV, he was speechless immediately.

  He said that this is a bad thing, why is it getting bigger and bigger.

   "You came here suddenly just now, and I couldn't see what it was in the middle, but I think there should be news about the former turtle prince at the beginning."

  Sun Yanhong said, and sure enough, the subtitle bar on the TV changed, and it was marked with Unsolved Mysteries of XXX Magical Land, and the host immediately changed his tone, trying to highlight the mystery in it.

   Seeing this, Chen Ling became even more speechless, and murmured in his heart: 'This is his grandma's, why does he have the sense of seeing science and legends. '

   As we all know, documentaries that go into science show all unscientific things.

  The legendary stories are good at the beginning, but after the lack of material in the latter, they basically rely on making up to attract attention.

  But there is no way.

  The key is that people will eat this at this time.

   A suspense can be firmly hooked.

  Sitting honestly in front of the TV for more than an hour or two, I don’t want to go to the bathroom until commercial time.

   "CCTV is also just joining in the fun. How many times have our TV stations returned visits, and so many newspapers have been printed. What else is there to watch?"

  Chen Ling impatiently wanted to turn off the TV.

  But Sun Yanhong snatched it away, "My God, this is CCTV, what an honor it is to be on Zhongyang TV, and you will be famous all over the country in the future.

  Why don't you care so much? "

   "It's famous all over the country, but it's not the real name. Didn't you see that the names above are all Xiao Chen and Lao Wang? Besides, it's not like building a big rocket. What glory is there?"

   "You, you are really... Even if you are not famous, you still show your face. Who doesn't know you?

   Besides, people are not famous, so our place is finally famous, at least our county and city will not revolve around you in the future.

  I see, let's hurry up and expand our business now. I have to find someone to record the footage of you on the CCTV news, and play it repeatedly in our store.

   It has to be made into a big photo and hung in front of the store. "

   Then she looked at the waiter in her shop: "Do you think so?"

   The two young men and women nodded hurriedly, looking at Chen Ling with eyes full of admiration.

   "Pull it down, can't you let me be a farmer in peace?"

   Just as she was saying this, the phone in Sun Yanhong's office rang. As the woman said, it was an acquaintance who inquired about Chen Ling.

  What is Liu Jiancheng, Yu Bangjin, Tian Hongli, and many people who know Chen Ling, but Chen Ling doesn't know them, and they all called to ask.

  Some are looking for cooperation, and some are asking if they can make an appointment for dinner.

  Among them, Yu Bangjin regretted that he couldn't do the pickled vegetables business with Chen Ling.

  In short, Chen Ling still ignored the power of being on CCTV at this time.

   Fortunately, the people in Taiwan Province listened to their opinions and used pseudonyms, otherwise he would really be famous now.

  Sun Yanhong's face was radiant and radiant during these few phone calls.

  Chen Ling dozed off listening to it.

   Boring eating melon seeds next to me, playing chess with the waiter.

   On the contrary, Ah Fu and Ah Shou maintained a high level of excitement, lying on both sides of Chen Ling's chair, staring at the TV with great interest.

   seems to find it very interesting.

  Finally, no more calls came in.

  Chen Ling got up and yawned, "Are the people outside gone? There are too many people in the provincial capital tonight. If I had known, I would not have brought the tiger into the city. I would have just boarded the boat from the pier and headed home without worry."

  He stood up, and the two tigers followed suit, stretching alluringly on the floor.

  Er Baldy also looked back from the windowsill.

  Sun Yanhong smiled and said: "Oh, I thought you had nothing to do at night and came out to walk tigers."

   "I'm so bored. I finally went out for a trip. I shouldn't take this opportunity to discuss something with you. After all, after summer, crayfish will never be so prosperous again."

  When it came to business matters, Sun Yanhong immediately became serious, kicked out the two waiters, and asked Chen Ling to sit on the office chair and discuss in detail.

   What Chen Ling said was nothing more than the transformation from crayfish to hot pot in the future.

  When the weather is hot, crayfish is the main dish, and when the weather turns cold, it becomes hot pot.

   You can get something special in the middle, such as bamboo rats and the like.

   Anyway, adjust it at any time.

   After some discussion, it was already past ten o'clock at night.

  Chen Ling was too lazy to stay outside, and still wanted to go home as soon as possible.

  So just like when I came here, I rode a horse, carried an eagle, and rushed to the pier with two tigers.

  There is a large ship arranged by Professor Han at the pier, waiting for him and serving him these two days.

  And in order to avoid Chen Ling running back and forth, the fish tank was put on top in the afternoon, and when he finished his work, he could go straight away after boarding the boat.

   It's just that it's a horse and a tiger, so the people on the boat are inevitably a little scared.

   In the end, it was Chen Ling who let the tiger roll around and bow in a coquettish manner, and they were relieved.

  Walking by water is very slow.

  When you come, you go down the river, which is much slower than the land route.

   Not to mention the countercurrent when going back.

  In addition, horses and tigers have been on the boat for a long time, and they are uncomfortable, and they will have some physiological reactions. When they encounter the pier, they need to stop to eat and rest.

   It was not enough to spend a day and two nights back and forth. On the third day, I arrived at the pier in Tenghe Township after dark.

Of course.

  After arriving here, everything will be fine.

  When no one was around, I put the fish tank and two tigers in the cave, got on my horse and left, very chic.

   But there was a tiger, so I didn’t go back to the county seat, only to the farm outside the village.

   This time it went smoothly.

  Because it was dark, no one in the village saw Chen Ling bring the tiger back from outside the village, so it avoided causing unnecessary onlookers again.

  As for the people who came to visit this time, except for those pious and superstitious pilgrims to Lord Turtle, the rest are coming and going, the old will go and the new will come.

  The cost of accommodation in the family farm is high, and not many people stay for a long time.

  There is only one family of three living in two rooms at a cost, but, except for the very beginning, no one has ever come to stay.

   is also quite strange.

  So, at home, only the father-in-law and sister-in-law are looking after the house.

   Except for the dogs and livestock in the village, no one else knew that Chen Ling came back with the tiger at night.

  After Wang Zhenzhen came back from Fenglei Town, he was reluctant to go to the county seat, because he watched cartoons and TV series on TV every night.

   During the day, there are friends playing together.

  Of course they are not only playing, but also carrying red-tasseled guns, leading Erhei to drive away chickens and ducks, and patrol the farm.

   can help a lot.

  Other things, the two old men Zhao Yubao often come over, and the old ladies of the two families also help out. After they lived for two months, they have become more and more accustomed to life in the countryside.

   Sometimes Wang Cunye is too embarrassed to ask them to come over and help.

  They never tire of it.

  It is very fulfilling to be able to help to be the owner of the farm and make decisions.

  Plus the Bobcat and Du Juan are also here for a while, and Yu Qi'an's young couple will wander back from time to time.

  So... Chen Ling didn't have to worry about family matters when he went out this time.

   "Wow, brother-in-law, why did you bring the tiger back..."

  As soon as Chen Ling put the fish tank in place, Wang Zhenzhen rushed down from the upstairs with a thud, little doll, it is always more exciting to see tigers and lions.

   "You can slow down, I'm afraid I won't fall to you, right?"

   Chen Ling frowned and said.

  Wang Zhenzhen didn't listen at all, rushed to the two tigers in a hurry, and shouted excitedly: "Ah Fu A Shou, you two, do you still remember me?"

   The two guys, Ah Fu and Ah Shou, returned to a familiar place again. When they saw a familiar person, they were very emotional. They rubbed their big heads on Wang Zhenzhen's body, and then began to circle around the yard, sniffing around.

   It made a mess.

  Wang Cunye was feeding a nest of newly hatched young snakes in the snake box in the backyard, when he saw two tigers crawling over, he trembled with fright.

   Fortunately, I saw Chen Ling and Wang Zhenzhen chasing after him in time, otherwise I would have to be scared out of my wits.

   "Lingzi, what you have done is too scary. Why did you bring the tiger back to the village again? Didn't you say that the tiger is very sick? Don't go crazy when you get it back, it will hurt people."

   "Father, it's okay, the illness is already cured. These two little tigers are just like our dogs. They are sensible and human, and they won't hurt people."

   Chen Ling explained with a smile.

   "Oh, that's right, how did you come back? Did someone from the zoo send you back?"

   "No, Professor Han hired a boat, and there is something about them here..."

   Weng and his son-in-law talked for a while.

  Suddenly Wang Cunye slapped his thigh:

   "Oh, by the way, Zhenzhen and I were watching TV just now, and we saw that you, Ling Zi, were on CCTV. This is really promising, and it will give our folks a face."

   "..."

   Come on, needless to say, anyone with a TV must know about it.

   "Brother-in-law, Ah Fu Ah Shou still won't let me ride."

   Still, Wang Zhenzhen is courageous enough. He fought with two tigers before, and now he chases the tiger and climbs on the tiger.

  It's a pity that neither Ah Fu nor Ah Shou would let her ride on him.

   "Don't ride them, they've been hungry and thin recently, take care of them, and let you ride them when they're stronger."

   "Oh, well, then brother-in-law, will the two tigers become our own family this time? We won't go back to the zoo, so we will raise them ourselves?"

   "...What, what good things are you thinking, you didn't hear a word of what I said just now, did you..."

   "Hee hee, I don't understand what you said to dad."

   "Don't understand? I didn't know which little monkey was hiding outside the door before, and I eavesdropped a lot."

   "I don't care, I'm going to sleep with Ah Fu and Ah Shou tonight."

   "You can pull it down, and bring the tiger into the house to sleep, and you won't be afraid of crushing the bed. Besides, this tiger skin is so hot next to it."

   "...I'm not afraid of heat, if you don't let me stay indoors, then go outside."

   "All right, all right, I'll move the bed out, there are no outsiders in the house today, we will sleep in the yard guarding the tiger tonight."

  The livestock pen where Ah Fu and Ah Shou used to live, has now built many kennels when the family dog ​​is giving birth to puppies.

  As for the other livestock pens, apart from those occupied by poultry and livestock, the rest are piled up with various sundries.

   Temporarily unable to accommodate the tiger.

   Let's just stay at home for one night.

   Anyway, under the bamboo building is a very spacious small yard, paved with bluestone, surrounded by flowers and plants, and sleeping here at night is also very comfortable.

  Chen Ling moved out the bamboo bed, and each of them occupied a bed. Mosquito-repelling matchsticks were lit around them. While talking, looking at the stars in the night sky, they teased the tiger from time to time.

  I wondered where I would take the two tigers tomorrow.
