Chapter 22 Foreigners and Chinese Pears
(Look at Wendi and look down. The investigation on the male protagonist has started. Remember to choose one. In order to prevent the tragedy of the old book from happening again, the investigation should be done first~)

Baijia Ancient Town is no more popular than Lijiang and other popular tourist attractions. It has only been a few years since it became a tourist destination, and most of the tourists who come to the town are tourists from other provinces and cities who are tired of the busy life.

When the grandparents of the Zhu family were walking on the road, they occasionally caught sight of one or two foreign tourists with white skin and high nose bridges.The foreign tourist in the Xinhua Bookstore bought a local tourist map, looked through it and found that there was no English version, so he wanted to ask if there was an English version.

But the salesperson in the bookstore couldn't speak English, and both of them were sweating profusely.

"Grandpa, what that man said is the same as what you heard on the radio." Zhu Shijun's "Desheng" short-wave radio is a foreign brand with excellent quality.Even in the mountains, you can also receive very clear English channels.

In addition to exercising on the mountain, the daily must-have program for the elderly is to listen to the news broadcast for half an hour at around seven o'clock, and then listen to the international news of the BBC International Channel for half an hour afterwards.

Xiaoxian listened to it for half a month, and her ear sensitivity has greatly improved.

After hearing this, Zhu Shijun stepped forward and translated to the salesman what the foreigner wanted to express. Only then did both sides understand what the other side meant.

The salesperson told Zhu Shijun helplessly that there is no English version of travel brochures in such a small bookstore.But she told Zhu Shijun that there is a travel agency 100 meters to the right after leaving the bookstore, and there are several English-speaking tour guides in it. Foreigners can go there to find a tour guide.

Seeing a local old man in his sixties who could speak fluent English, the foreigner gave a thumbs up and said several times, "good." After Zhu Shijun paid for the book, he took the foreigner to the end and found It is a small travel agency with three or four tour guides.

Before leaving, the foreigner took out a bar of chocolate and a can of Coke from his travel bag and insisted on giving it to Xiao Xian.

Xiaoxian refused, but after thinking about it, she gave away the last two pears in her schoolbag, two for two, no one owed anyone.

After walking out of the travel agency, Mr. Zhu hesitated for a while, but he turned back and found the person in charge of the travel agency: "Comrade, please see if you can compile an English version of the travel brochure, so that foreign friends can visit it when they come over." Zhu Shijun His eyesight is very accurate. A quaint southwest town like Baijia Ancient Town is like a quiet corner of people's hearts, and sooner or later it will attract tourists from all over the world.

After hearing this, the person in charge of the travel agency looked at the foreign guests sitting there, and patted his head. He didn't expect such an exclusive deal.

It was almost three o'clock when I walked out of the travel agency.Zhu Shijun also felt a little tired, so he hailed a rickshaw. The grandpa and grandson looked at the banana trees in the ancient town of Baijia and the smell of sour soup from various shops, and each felt deeply moved.

"Grandpa, what did the Englishman give me just now?" Xiaoxian took out the can of Coke and chocolate, saying it was for food, but Xiaoxian didn't see anyone eating these things in Gecun.

Zhu Shijun's heart was gloomy when he heard that, when Xiaoxian was a child, his parents were strict in discipline, and they almost didn't allow him to eat snacks.So when he was six years old, he still hadn't even eaten Coke and chocolate, which made Zhu Shijun feel sad when he heard it.

The children in Gecun, who are seven or eight years older than Xiaoxian, have dropped out of school early, or planted a few acres of land in the village, or went to work along the coast.The Chinese New Year may not come. After a few years, maybe I will come back with my wife and children.

Those who are about the same age as Xiaoxian are still barefoot, and they only change into half-worn shoes and clothes during the holidays, not to mention snacks.

How could a villager who could eat wild chestnuts with a mouthful of saliva have ever seen such things as soda and chocolate.Zhu Shijun knew Gecun's family background, and less than [-]% of the children in the village could graduate from elementary school.Last year, the annual income of each household in the village was less than one thousand.If you stay in such a small mountain village, you will be poor to death. I don't know if the village chief will get the subsidy for next year when he goes to the town.

At this time, Zhu Shi's army was in conflict. He didn't want Xiao Xian to follow him. He really spent his whole life in the mountains, but after leaving Gecun, who should take care of Xiao Xian? Proud, and forcefully demanded that Xiao Xian's father marry in, Xiao Xian followed the surnames, but also broke away from all relatives of his father's family.

"Grandpa, what are you thinking, the one in front is not." Xiao Xian said and jumped out of the car, her steps were very light, just looking at her monkey-like agility, she really couldn't tell that she was originally crippled.

The one carrying the big and small bags in front is the wife of the village head of Gecun. She has bought a lot of things, including food, pots and pans, just like the New Year's Eve.Zhu Shijun simply gave up the car and loaded everything into the car.

"Auntie, why do you buy so much soy sauce?" Xiaoxian saw more than a dozen packs of soy sauce. How could the whole family use so much soy sauce? After all, it only takes five days to go to the market. Families with good family backgrounds are not willing to be pulled down by large or small groups.

"Isn't it because your old man and Mrs. Lian said that you are a greedy cat who can't eat, so you asked me to buy it, and I will cook you meat with soy sauce for dinner when you go back." The wife of the village chief walked away with the Zhu family because of the village chief. diligent.Rural women don't have the rules of her family. After meeting Zhu Shijun a few times, they call the old man directly.

Autumn is sunny and dry in most parts of the country. At that time in the south, all kinds of soy sauce meat and sauce wings will be made. After drying, it is easy to store and put in a ventilated place. You can eat it until the New Year. for a while.

Pork, chicken and duck are ready-made in the village, which are fresher than those bought in the town, so the wife of the village chief bought some that cannot be bought in the village.

The three of them chatted in a tricycle, and soon they arrived at Sangouzi's truck, and the villagers all came back.The places vacated by the villagers who left earlier were quickly filled with the things that had just been bought and sold.

A car full of people and a car full of goods dented the tires of the pickup truck a bit.When San Gouzi returned, he turned on the stereo in the driver's seat, and sang "My family lives on the high slope of the loess." from the loudspeaker, Gecun's small gathering was over.

On the way back to the village, the village chief’s wife wanted to report the money spent on today’s shopping like she used to do every time she finished the market, but she just started the report when she was interrupted angrily by the village chief: “It’s long-winded, Let’s talk about these things when we go back, didn’t you see that I’m bothering you?”

Everyone in the car was beaming, and they all looked down upon hearing the village chief's temper.The village head was smoking a cigarette in silence, his brows were furrowed, and he refused to let go for a long time.
