Return to the small mountain village in 1986

Early the next morning, the two brothers Chen Duofu got up early and put on their best clothes.

They paid more attention to this outing than the previous notice to take photos.

Chen Dasong and Aunt Liu also got up early. They were as excited as their two sons.

Chen Dasong took out 50 yuan and handed it to Chen Duofu and said to the two brothers: "We are poor and rich, take this money. If you want to buy something outside or have lunch, use this money." Money. You have already troubled Mingcheng, so it’s not good to spend any more of his money."

Chen Duofu did not accept the 50 yuan, but said, "Dad, I have money myself."

Chen Duofu also had a salary, which he did not turn in because Chen Dasong and his wife wanted him to save money to marry his wife.

But Chen Dasong insisted that he accept it, and said seriously: "Your money is your money, and what I gave you is what I gave you! Take the money, and if you haven't spent it, pay it back to me when you get back."

Since his father said so, Chen Duofu had no choice but to accept it.

Shortly after breakfast, Gao Mingcheng's jeep passed by the hillside and stopped.

"What a blessing, what a joy!" Gao Mingcheng stuck his head out of the car window and shouted towards Chen Dasong's house.

"Hey, come on!" The two brothers hurriedly walked towards the roadside and got into the car with unfamiliar movements.

Gao Mingcheng and Fan Licheng were sitting in the front, and their brothers were sitting in the back. The two brothers, who had never even ridden on a tractor several times in their lives, sat on a jeep for the first time and felt that everything was novel.

Duo Duoyu was sitting at the door of his house, witnessing this scene, and couldn't help but said sourly: "The people from their family will take advantage!"

It's a pity that Zhang Chengyuan is used to being taciturn, and her son Xiao Shitou is still young and doesn't know how to talk to her about these things.

Duoyu just said a sour sentence, and after watching the jeep leave, he was about to start his day's work.

Country people do not have complete leisure time. As long as they are willing to work, they will have work to do every day.

The jeep drove out of this closed mountain village very quickly, all the way to the national highway, then headed towards Yingtan, and then towards Jingdezhen.

For Gao Mingcheng and Fan Licheng, the scenery along the way was nothing to see, just mountains and mountain villages.Occasionally one or two rivers can be seen.

But for the Chen brothers, who rarely go out, the scenery along the way is novel.

Every mountain has different scenery, and every village has different characteristics.Even the crops in the fields are different.

Some villages are located halfway up the mountain. They plant little rice but a lot of fruit trees. Their crops include corn, sorghum, cotton, tobacco, etc.

Some villages have flat terrain and dense water networks, so there are many rice fields. At the end of August, the late rice is the time to grow vigorously, and the seedlings are green and prosperous.

Especially when they saw the river, the Chen brothers, who had never seen a river before, immediately exclaimed in exclamation.

Gaojia Village is surrounded by mountains on three sides. There are only three reservoirs and one pond in the village. Although the Chen brothers can also swim, they have never seen a big river. The kind of majestic waves that only big rivers can have. They have only seen descriptions in books. But there is no way to imagine it.

"Brother, look! That river is so big! So this is the big river mentioned in the book!" Chen Duoxi pointed to the big river outside the window, her face full of surprise.

Chen Duofu had a calmer personality, but he was also a little excited at this time, staring closely at the scenery outside the window.

After living for more than 20 years, he has never seen the outside scenery!

This fresh feeling made Chen Duofu feel particularly excited.

Amid the startled cheers of the two brothers, the jeep gradually drove into Jingdezhen.

Although Jingdezhen is called a town, it is not a real town, but a prefecture-level city.

Since ancient times, Jingdezhen's porcelain has been famous far and wide. It has always been an official kiln of the royal family and has the name of the porcelain capital. The development here is naturally better than that of the county where Gao Mingcheng and the others are located.

The two Chen brothers were mesmerized by the sight again. One of them occupied one side of the window, and the eldest brother stared so hard that he couldn't even blink.

Gao Mingcheng took Fan Licheng all the way home. He had gone back and forth on this road several times and was very familiar with it.After arriving home, Fan Licheng invited Gao Mingcheng and others to sit at home.

When Gao Mingcheng sent Fan Licheng over before, he always had lunch at Fan Licheng's house. After lunch, he drove back to the county.

But it seemed a bit bad to bring the Chen brothers and so many people to Fan's house for dinner today, so Gao Mingcheng refused.

"No, I'll take them out to find a restaurant to eat and take a look around here. I've been here a few times before, but I haven't had a good time."

When Fan Licheng heard this, he immediately said: "Then let me go shopping with you! I know where the fun is!"

Okay, it would be nice to have a local to lead the way.

So he put Fan Licheng's luggage down in the car and spoke to Fan Licheng's grandparents. Then Gao Mingcheng continued driving. Under the leadership of Fan Licheng, they first found a restaurant with a good reputation for dinner.

After dinner, we walked around the city.

But in fact, there isn’t much to visit here. The most prominent feature is that there are many porcelain kilns and shops selling porcelain.

The porcelain bowls used by the Chen family are coarse porcelain bowls produced locally. Seeing these exquisite porcelains now is like opening up a new world.

Gao Mingcheng's new house has been decorated, and all he needs to do is buy furniture and electrical appliances, so he also plans to buy a better set of tableware and decorative porcelain back home.

When Fan Licheng heard this idea, he immediately said: "Uncle Gao, go to my grandparents' house and buy it. I'll ask them to give you a discount!"

"Okay!" Gao Mingcheng agreed immediately. It's really not in his interest to go to a strange store to take advantage of him if he has such connections and resources!

So after walking around the city, the group returned to Fan Licheng's home.

Fan Licheng went to his grandfather and told Gao Mingcheng that he wanted to buy porcelain.

So Grandpa Fan led Gao Mingcheng to the warehouse.

The people who came back this time were all old acquaintances. Grandpa Fan directly gave the cost price. The Chen brothers couldn't help but feel excited when they heard this price.

Seeing their excitement, Gao Mingcheng said: "If you really like it, you can buy a few back. Not only are they useful, they are also pleasing to the eye!"

The two brothers looked at each other, and finally Chen Duofu made up his mind and followed Gao Mingcheng to buy a set of low-end tableware.

Although it is low-end, it is many times better looking than the coarse porcelain bowl at home!
Gao Mingcheng is different. He specially selected the porcelain of Jingdezhen, which is as white as jade, as bright as a mirror, as thin as paper, and as loud as a chime. Among them, blue and white, exquisite, pastel, and color glaze are collectively called the four major traditions of Jingdezhen. Famous porcelain.

The Fan family's porcelain kiln is said to have been passed down for hundreds of years, but its specialty is blue and white porcelain, and it can also produce some pastels. As for exquisite porcelain and colored glazes, their family does not have them.

However, because Fan Chengyao opened a porcelain shop in Yangcheng, in addition to the porcelain produced at home, his family also purchased other porcelain from familiar people in the surrounding area. Therefore, in the Fan family's warehouse, you can also find exquisite porcelain and colored glazes. goods.

The price of this part of the goods is slightly higher, but it is still considered as the purchase price to Gao Mingcheng.

The price was really good, and Gao Mingcheng had no shortage of money in his pocket, so he started buying a set of tableware, a set of tea sets, a pair of small decorative bottles, and a pair of large plum vases.He also bought all the decorative items he liked. If the trunk space of the jeep was not limited, he would probably buy more porcelain.

Gao Mingcheng closed the trunk and said to Fan Licheng: "My newly built house has been renovated and I will move there at the end of the year. When you come back next time, you can stay at my house for a few days. I guarantee you like it!"

"Okay!" Fan Licheng nodded happily, watched Gao Mingcheng and his party get into the car, and then reluctantly waved goodbye.

Gao Mingcheng sat in the driver's seat and waved goodbye to Fan Licheng.

"Goodbye, you have to study hard and make progress every day. My little Xuxu is waiting for you to help with homework!"

Gao Mingcheng's words made Fan Licheng laugh, but he agreed immediately and said that he would help Xiao Xuxu with his homework.

Watching the jeep leave, Fan Licheng felt a sense of loss in his heart. The rich and exciting summer vacation was about to pass, and he would have to devote himself to the simple study life again! (End of chapter)
