Fat Niang makes a fortune in farming

Chapter 67 Dragon Boat Race
Compared with the dragon boats in other villages, the dragon boats in other villages have high-spirited dragon heads and high tails, and Lao Gao is vivid, and the dragon patterns painted on the boat are lifelike, just like a dragon in the water.

Only the dragon boat in Wangjiatun, seen from a distance, is a big black log floating in the water.

"Is this a dragon boat?"

Originally, on the way here, she had firmly believed that the dragon boat in Wangjiatun would definitely win.

Now it seems that this dragon boat can be launched into the water and rowed twice.

"Oh! It's not that the black-hearted old rich man in our village, Wang Maocai, was stingy and refused to spend money to build a new dragon boat. Look at other villages, those local tyrants and old rich men, it's something that brings honor to the whole village. They pay for it It’s easy to pay out, just like Wang Maocai in our village, asking him to take money every year is like killing him!”

As soon as Qiaohui was mentioned, he became angry. Every year at the Dragon Boat Festival, when he wanted to repair the dragon boat, this unscrupulous Wang Maocai would be moaning, just unwilling to take the money out.

"I can't help it. He is the only one in our village who has money. Other people in our village want to pay for it, but they are powerless! This is something that will bring honor to the whole village!"

Dong Jingye, who was originally sitting on the willow tree and stone, also stood up at this time. He looked at the other side, and he saw the dragon boat in Wangjiatun at a glance.

"This dragon boat has been around for more than ten years! Back then, I rowed with Brother Wang!"

"Yes! Yes! At that time, we were rowing in the water, Qingfeng, and Mancang stood on the bank and watched us row! The time is really fast! It's like the blink of an eye!"

Uncle Wang slowly took the finished tobacco from his mouth and tapped it on the soles of his feet, and then looked at the opposite bank with a lot of emotion, where young people from Wangjiatun gathered.

"But sir! Don't underestimate our dragon boat. Although it is old and inconspicuous, the young people in our village strive to win the first place every year!"

Just when Dong Jingye finished speaking, the relatively calm river surface suddenly became lively.

The sound of gongs, drums and firecrackers suddenly came from far away on the river, and it was very lively.

Soon the crowd watching on the river bank suddenly boiled up.

Dong Jingye, who had just sat down, immediately stood up again, and Uncle Wang quickly took out the cigarette stick from his mouth, and everyone looked at the river.

"Could it be true what I heard two days ago?"

"What are you listening to? Say it!"

As soon as Uncle Wang finished speaking, Aunt Wang became anxious. She pushed Uncle Wang's body and told him to finish speaking quickly.

"I heard that this Xianghe Building also built a dragon boat this year. It is said that Yao Qingze, the owner of Xianghe Building, built this boat specially for Mr. Zhu. He said that he knew Mr. Zhu likes to watch dragon boat races. I built a dragon boat in the name of Mr. Zhu!"

With the sound of firecrackers and the sound of gongs and drums getting closer, Meng Kejun and the others saw the words "Xianghe Building" on the dragon boat's flag.

Wang Zhujun, Meng Kejun did not expect to hear about Wang Zhujun here.

Being able to spend such a large sum of money to build her a dragon boat, it seems that this man named Yao Qingze really loves her.

Suddenly, Meng Kejun was very envious of this Wang Zhujun. Not only was she beautiful, but she also had a husband who loved her, and more importantly, Dong Qingfeng missed her so much.

Now Meng Kejun wants to meet Wang Zhujun even more.

"Hey! Look, there is a dragon boat! Look! Look!"

Qiaohui on the side suddenly jumped and cried.

The group immediately looked in the direction she was pointing at.

What they saw made everyone even more dumbfounded.

This dragon boat slowly rowing to the center of the river is probably the most luxurious and conspicuous in the audience.

The dragon body on the dragon boat is painted with red and white paint, and the dragon head is even painted with gold paint. All the members on the dragon boat are all dressed in white clothes.

Even the flags on the dragon boats are in white.

"Old Wangtou, do you know what's going on?"

Dong Jingye asked Uncle Wang who was looking at the river like him.

At this time, Uncle Wang, who was smoking dry cigarettes, frowned. Apart from Xianghe Building, he hadn't heard of any other villages building new dragon boats these days, not to mention the Bai surname hanging on it. This Bai surname is not a common surname. Those who can get so much money are even rarer.

A name surnamed Bai immediately popped into Uncle Wang's mind.

"This must belong to Dr. Bai's house in Baojitang in the town, yes, it must belong to him!"

The more Uncle Wang said, the more certain he became.

"Yes! It belongs to Doctor Bai! I heard that Doctor Bai wants to retire. His son came back from a medical trip abroad. Doctor Bai wants to hand over Baojitang to him. It must be because Doctor Bai wants to retire. Take the money to build a dragon boat!"

"Yes! It must be so!"

Uncle Wang nodded while talking. Hearing what he said, Dong Jingye thought for a while. Doctor Bai's family from Baojitang is the only rich one.

"Brother Wang, it seems that there is really nothing you don't know about this!"

Seeing that her man also nodded repeatedly, Huang's admiration for Uncle Wang's speculation was even greater.

With the current situation in front of him, Meng Kejun began to worry. He was afraid that no matter how hard the young people in Wangjiatun were to strive, they would have more energy than they wanted.

Those who can be selected to ride the dragon boat are all young and middle-aged people in each village, and each village has its own uniform in the village. In this rich village, when the rich and generous rich people pay for the boat building, they will also use the money for the clothes and materials together. All given.

There is only one village that is not rich. Although the styles of clothes on everyone's bodies are similar, the fabrics are different. The most obvious one is Wangjiatun.

But now the competition is about strength and kung fu on water, not who wears fancy clothes or whose dragon boat is gorgeous.

As soon as the dragon boat hit the water, the oars started to row, and they saw Zhenzhang.

As soon as the firecrackers sounded on the shore, the dragon boats that had already been lined up in the water immediately seemed to be off-string arrows. With uniform movements and loud gongs and drums, all the people on the shore cheered for the dragon boats in their village with loud voices. It was so lively .

Meng Kejun's heart has been hanging since the young people in Wangjiatun got on the dragon boat.

Dong Qingfeng sits at the front. Dong Jingye explained to her just now that that is the most critical rowing position. People call it "Batourou". It is very honorable.

Wang Mancang is at the helm at the stern, and this position cannot be sloppy at all. He controls the direction of the dragon boat, and if he is a little negligent, he will make a big mistake, and capsizing the boat is very likely.

Unexpectedly, once the humble dragon boat in Wangjiatun entered the water, it was like a real dragon entering the water. At first, it was still lagging behind. Unexpectedly, after the stamina picked up, it would suddenly put the other dragon boats far away. left behind.

And the two dragon boats that appeared grandly and were extremely gorgeous were left far behind by all the dragon boats.
