Reborn Jewelry

Chapter 572
The guide, surnamed Liu, is only in his 30s, but he is dark-skinned, small and thin, with a weather-beaten sense of history on his face, making him look like an old man in his fifties.

He has only studied for two years, has no special skills, and can't earn money when he goes out to work, so he has to farm at home and raise chickens and ducks, and he can earn some income throughout the year.

However, Guide Liu's biggest income is from taking people from the city into the mountains and earning some hard work.

Knowing that Chu Ning and Shi Jin went to the mountain to find someone to collect old things, Director Liu smiled knowingly, and said: "The road in this mountain is not easy to walk, and everyone inside is looking forward to getting out, so how can anyone want to go in? But in the past few years, more and more people have gone into the mountains to collect old things. Let me see, after you leave, not many people will think about going into the mountains again!"

Over the past few years, no matter how many treasures were hidden in this mountain, they were almost collected by those who worked hard.Chu Ning might be able to pick up some leaks this time, but as for the people after them, I'm afraid they really can only return empty-handed.

In fact, in Guide Liu's opinion, those people who went into the mountains to collect old things like Chu Ning before were simply fools.

The problem is that there are still a lot of people in this city who are stupid, as if they are in a hurry.

Of course, if it weren't for these fools in the city, he wouldn't have so many opportunities to make money!

Those old things can only be used by poor people in the mountains.If they were replaced by the ones in their villages and towns, they would have already been replaced with new and beautiful ones. Who cares about those old things?
Back then, even in their house, a lot of old things were thrown away, all smashed to pieces, and finally dumped into the newly built garbage dump in the town.

For this reason, Director Liu secretly regretted it more than once.

If he had known that there were so many idiots in the city taking banknotes to collect these old things that no one wanted, he would never have cleaned up his house so clean back then!
Those old things that he smashed and threw away are all money!

Guide Liu regretted not being able to sleep well at night for several months.

After listening to Director Liu's words, Chu Ning also realized something.

Going into the mountains to collect old things is just an excuse. Those who came here before her should have the same purpose as her.

They all wanted to find a few antiques from among the unidentified things.

It's just that she didn't expect that someone had come up with this idea several years ago.

Thinking about it, people in this line of work would only want to collect a few real antiques to make a fortune.Tao Fei has so many ideas at such a young age, and those who have been in the antique world for more years than him will only have more ideas.

Chu Ning chatted with Director Liu with a smile, trying to see if she could get some useful information out of him.

Under her intentional guidance, Guide Liu really revealed a lot of information.

It turned out that the village they were looking for in Dashan today was the most remote village from the township, a long distance away from the second-ranked village, and few people even knew about it.

However, if the village was not remote enough, Tao Fei might not be able to discover it.

"In the past, when we entered the mountain, we could still take a bullock cart, but now we can't." Guide Liu said with a wry smile, "The mountain has been very uneven in recent years, and there have been earthquakes and mudslides. It’s ruined, but it hurts us. There are many places, not to mention bullock carts, even cattle can’t get in, so we can only rely on our two legs.”

Before Chu Ning and Shi Jin arrived, there had just been a mudslide here, and several roads were blocked.Today, Guide Liu took them on a trail. Although it was a bit remote and rugged, the journey into the mountain was shortened, which was exactly what Chu Ning and Shi Jin wanted.

The three walked and talked all the way, and finally arrived at the village they were looking for before three o'clock in the afternoon.

When the village appeared in front of them, not to mention Chu Ning and Shi Jin, even Director Liu, a local, sighed a little.

It's really because this village is too dilapidated!
There are not many people in the village anymore, and there are probably less than twenty families in Ting Po Tian, ​​which looks very lonely.Moreover, most of the houses in the village still have mud walls and straw roofs, with few bricks and tiles visible.

The silhouettes of the villagers loomed in the dilapidated houses. Almost all of them were wearing patched clothes, and the corners had already been washed white.Even if there are those who don't wear patched clothes, it's because those clothes are not patched at all, just hanging on the body in tatters.

It was the first time in Chu Ning's life that she saw such a poor village, and she was almost stunned!

She looked at Guide Liu and asked, "This village is already like this, isn't there anything to do in the township?"

"Why not?" Director Liu said fairly, "The township has always wanted to improve the living conditions of these mountain people. But there are more than one village in this mountain, and the strength of the township is also limited. These things can only be done slowly. Come on. In addition, the road in this mountain is not easy to walk, and the road built before was dug secretly and carried back to mend the wall and build a pigsty. No matter how you stop it, if you dare to arrest someone in a town, the people in a village Just block them all at the entrance of the police station, can’t they all be arrested? No way, the road was repaired and repaired and repaired, but in the end it was completely destroyed, and the township also gave up on the road repair plan.”

Chu Ning: "..."

The world's great wonders.

Such a weird thing can happen? !
It just opened her eyes.

"In fact, the current situation is much better than previous years." Guide Liu continued, "The villages near the townships have been more or less rebuilt, and some roads have been preserved. It's just that we don't go in that direction today. Go, so you didn't see it."

Chu Ning sighed.

Well, this barely counts as good news?
Shi Jin patted Chu Ning's shoulder lightly, with comfort in his eyes.

Chu Ning smiled at him.

She may have had some sympathy for these villagers before, but after knowing what they have done, her sympathy has almost dissipated.

While the three of them were talking at the entrance of the village, the village head had rushed over with people after hearing the news.

The village chief is an old man with a white beard in his 70s. Although he is already this age, but because of his years of hard work, his body looks stronger than that of Guide Liu, and his eyes are shining, which is obviously not a good job. Fools.

"Young man, are you the one Tao Boy said to collect old things?" The old village head knocked on the bong in his hand, squinted his small eyes at Chu Ning and Shi Jin, and said with a smile, "I know you guys If you want to come, we have already packed up all our things and put them all in the ancestral hall! You have to rush back to the city, and I won’t waste your time, let’s go and have a look now?”
