Reborn Craftsman

Chapter 136 Barefoot Young Ahu

"Get out of the car!" In desperation, Village Chief Wang yelled.

"That's the only way!" Liu Xing knew that the scalper's eyes must have been fascinated by the red color of the motorcycle's fuel tank, but he quickly stopped and was about to jump into the river.

He still doesn't believe it, this bastard can still jump into the river after him.

And right now.

A barefoot young man rushed out suddenly, grabbed the rope on the scalper's nose, and pulled it back hard.

Liu Xing was stunned, thinking that the barefoot young man would not be able to hold the scalper, but a miracle happened in the next second, the barefoot young man not only grabbed the scalper, but also turned over and rode on the scalper.

"Fuck! This is fine." Liu Xing couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief while admiring him.

To be honest, he can also ride a bull, but he can't do it in such a chic way.

"It's the kid Ah Hu...hahaha..." Village Chief Wang stroked his beard and smiled in a daze, then hurriedly led Liu Xing over.

"Grandpa, the village head!" 'Ahu' riding on the back of the ox even waved his hands to say hello.

"Well, didn't you go to see Xiaohu? Why are you here?" Village Chief Wang asked, with kindness in his eyes.

"Don't mention it, they won't let me see Xiaohu!" Ah Hu lowered his head, with helplessness in his words.

"Why? You two have been married since you were young, and now you're talking about marriage, why don't you agree?" Village Chief Wang was puzzled.

"It's not that I don't agree, what Xiaohu's parents mean. My family doesn't even have a decent thatched hut, so I can't give Xiaohu happiness. That's why they don't want me to see Xiaohu!" Ahu said, jumping off the back of the ox in dejection. When he got down, he glanced at Liu Xing and said, "My uncle's scalper is the most naughty. I'm really sorry for what happened just now. It didn't hurt you!"

"No, no!" Liu Xing even waved his hands.

The Ah Hu in front of him was dark-skinned, tall, and his eyes were crystal clear. He looked like a person who grew up in the countryside.

"It's okay, then I'll go. I have to discuss with my uncle to see if I can build a thatched hut for me!" Ahu said, pulling the scalper and walking eastward.

"Wait a minute, Ah Hu!" Village Chief Wang stopped the barefoot young man Ah Hu: "It's not easy for your uncle, he can't afford that much money to build a hut for you as a bachelor, or else, I'll give you money to build a hut for you." The matter has been dealt with, and I will go to Xiaohu's house in person."

As the village head, he couldn't just watch Ah Hu be single like this. After all, Dongyu Village already had enough bachelors.

"Okay!" Ah Hu knew that Village Chief Wang would not lie to him, so he immediately brought the scalper back.

"Let me introduce, this is Xiao Liu, who came to help restore the bamboo building, and his craftsmanship is extraordinary!" Village Chief Wang smiled and pulled Liu Xing in front of Ah Hu.

"Hello, my name is Wang Ahu, from Dongyu Village. I heard your name last night." Ahu wiped his right hand carefully on his body, and then handed it to Liu Xing.

"Haha... hello, I'm also from the countryside, so I don't need to be so particular about it!" Liu Xing reached out and shook Ahu's hand: "Just now you caught the scalper in time, thank you very much, otherwise I really don't know What should be done."

"Thank you for such a small matter. Besides, it's my uncle's scalper!" Seeing that Liu Xing is easy to talk, Ahu grinned, showing a mouthful of white and neat teeth: "Let's go! I'll take you there Village department."

"Okay!" Liu Xing walked up to the motorcycle and rode slowly behind Ahu.

The strange thing is that the scalper is very obedient with Ah Hu by his side.

Village head Wang did not ride Liu Xing's motorcycle this time, but walked along the west side of the river with Ah Hu. After walking for about ten minutes, he saw a wooden bridge lying across the river. In the middle of the big river.

Liu Xing breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately cheered and crossed the wooden bridge.

Looking along the direction of the road extended by the wooden bridge, you can have a panoramic view of Dongyu Village hidden in the mountains.

Liu Xing did not walk alone, but parked his motorcycle beside the bridge, silently waiting for Village Chief Wang and Ah Hu.

But at this moment, a village woman appeared in a panic. Seeing that Village Chief Wang was also there, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. When she approached, she grabbed Ah Hu and said, "Why are you still here? Hurry up to Xiaohu's house! That girl heard that she almost hanged herself!"

"Auntie, what's going on?" Ah Hu's eyes were red with anxiety.

"It's not because of his parents. They wanted to marry Xiaohu to the youngest son of the owner of the grocery store in the town, but Xiaohu refused. After crying and fussing, he almost hanged himself!" The village woman pulled Ahu He ran to the road ahead: "Son, your family doesn't have enough money to build a hut. You can find your aunt. I still have dozens of dollars in savings for selling eggs!"

"Hmm, um!" Ah Hu was moved and cried, and ran away desperately.

Village Chief Wang wanted to call Ah Hu to stop, but in the end he couldn't say what was stuck in his throat, so he could only silently watch Ah Hu and the village woman disappear from sight.

Liu Xing walked up to Village Chief Wang, and asked suspiciously: "Red brick houses are all built in the countryside now, why doesn't Ah Hu even have thatched huts? Why does this sound weird to me?"

Although it is 93, most farmers have mud-brick houses, and even some farmers who have made a fortune have built red-brick houses.Although Dongyu Village is not rich, it doesn't mean that it doesn't even have a hut!
"Hey! You don't know Ah Hu's background. He lost his parents since he was a child. His uncle took care of him and grew up in the village. His ancestors originally left him an adobe house, but it was destroyed a few years ago. It was washed away by the flood." Village Chief Wang sighed and explained the reason.

"So it's like this!" Liu Xing couldn't help shaking his head.

This child, Ahu, is really pitiful. It's not because of his parents who left early, but because Dongyu Village is too poor to give him any help. It's probably the biggest luxury to live with enough food and clothing.

"Let's go, I'll take you to the village department first. I want to take care of Ahu's affairs now, but I'm afraid I'm powerless!" Village head Wang led the scalper and walked towards Dongyu Village.

Liu Xing followed behind on a motorcycle.

As he got deeper, he discovered a strange thing.

That is, Dongyu Village is very rich in fir, pine, and bamboo resources. Among them, there are at least thousands of towering fir trees that are more than a hundred years old. The scale formed by the treetops can block the sky and the sun. the sun is up.

As for Nanzhu, there are mountains and mountains everywhere.

With such abundant resources, Dongyu Village shouldn't be so poor.

Village head Wang saw the doubts in Liu Xing's heart, and he smiled wryly: "Son, you don't understand, our Dongyu Village is a little far from Banqiao Town, and the roads are not smooth. If these trees and bamboos are to be exchanged for money, That’s hard to get into.”

"Won't you take the lead in building roads?" Liu Xing asked curiously.

"No money! Dongyu Village has a small area and a lot of people, so there is not enough money to pay the public grain every year!" Village Chief Wang replied with a wry smile.

The "land" in this small land and large population refers to the fertile land that can grow rice, not just the entire Dongyu Village.

In 93, the agricultural tax had not been abolished, and all farmers had to pay taxes, and they were all eating them in the fields. It was very difficult to earn more money in their spare time.
