Chapter 177 Meeting of the Big Bosses in Tashan Village (Third Watch)

Early the next morning, Jiang Zhi personally invited several people to our house to discuss matters.There is no one at the village committee all year round, so there is no heating equipment such as heating. It is too cold to go there now, so we invited people to our house.Because it was necessary to discuss the affairs of the village, the elderly and children of our family automatically avoided it, and only I, the wife of the village head, was left as a representative to entertain the guests.

Those who came were all people who spoke in the village and were more convincing.

As soon as everyone entered the room, Jiang Zhi called me out to entertain everyone.

"Daughter-in-law, come and pour some tea for the uncles and elder brothers."

"Hey." When I heard the movement in the back room, I put a pot of hot tea that I had just brewed, and a few clean cups on a tray, took it out, greeted everyone, and then poured a cup of tea .

Then he went back to the house and brought them melon seeds, candy and so on.

"Jiang Zhi's daughter-in-law, don't be too busy, we are not outsiders, so why not be polite." The person who spoke was Zhang Fanyu's father, old Zhangtou, who we met at Sun Jun's house when he had a pig-killing feast.

"It's nothing, the conditions are not good now, and there is nothing to entertain everyone, uncle, don't hold it against you." I said politely.

"Haha, what's the point? This is the first one in our village. We came here today to satisfy our hunger. I haven't eaten frozen plows and sugar cubes for more than a year. This looks quite greedy." It’s right.” The one who spoke was Liu Yujun from the village. He is in his 40s and has a good electrical repair skill. If anyone in the village has a small problem with an electrical appliance, he will go to him. According to Jiang Zhi, he is not bad.He was not polite when he said that, he picked up a frozen plow that was slowed down on the plate, and started to chew.

"Brother Liu, don't be too polite. This plow was produced by the pear tree in our yard this year. It's so sweet. My mother-in-law was afraid that it wouldn't be able to keep it. It was frozen when it first snowed. It's delicious. Yes, when we leave later, I’ll decorate it for you all, and give it to my aunt, sister-in-law and children when I go home.” Frozen plows, which were worthless in the past, are now good things.

It turned out that basically every family in the village would plant a few fruit trees in their yards. Later, when the living conditions improved, no one would point to the fruits picked from the fruit trees to satisfy their hunger. Most families have cut down the fruit trees in the yard.

The fruit trees in our house are not original. We planted them specially when we were resting the house two years ago. There are also a pomegranate tree, a persimmon tree, and a jujube tree in the yard.There was a drought last summer, but we found them without any loss, so they worked hard, and the fruits were very sweet. I froze the fruits that I couldn’t finish eating. I can eat frozen plows and frozen persimmons, which is another taste .

The people who came today can be said to be acquaintances, people Jiang Zhi likes. I guess they haven't eaten these fruits for a long time, so they took them out to entertain guests.

"And this tea is also good, everyone, try it, I bought it before, and my father and father-in-law both said it was good."

Hearing what I said, Li Yujun picked up the teacup in front of him and drank it upside down.

The smile on my face was a little forced, I really didn't mean it, but I picked up the teapot and filled him again.

While I was exchanging pleasantries with Liu Yujun, Jiang Zhi also started talking.

"Everyone knows what happened last night. Most of Zhang Wanfu's food was robbed by six men on bicycles. Fortunately, these people only wanted money and did not hurt anyone, so the bloodshed was spared. .

But I thought about it all night last night, and I felt uneasy, so I just invited you here today, and I want to ask if you have any opinions. "Jiang Zhi briefly explained what happened at Zhang Wanfu's house yesterday, and then explained the purpose of calling everyone today.

"Hey, the society is so chaotic now, it can be said that it is not as good as the year after year. Last year, it was just a few gangsters from the county sneaking over to steal chickens and dogs. This year, it has developed into a robbery. I don't know what it will develop into in the future. How are you doing?" Zhou Jianguo, who is in his 60s, has been farming all his life and is a good farmer.He said with a sigh: "Hey, I have been suffering all my life. I have experienced wars when I was a child. It can be regarded as our country is liberated and the society is stable. I work hard in the fields every day, thinking that as long as I can endure hardship, These days must be better and better, but in the end, I haven’t had a few days of good days, and I have caught up with these things again when I am getting old. Hey!” Zhou Jianguo lamented his hard life all his life.

"Old Zhou is right. After I went back and told my old lady about Zhang Wanfu's house yesterday, my old lady didn't sleep well all night. She always thought about hiding the food at home. I was afraid that bad people would come to the house. All the food in the family has been taken away, so our whole family won’t have to live anymore.” The old Zhangtou also sighed, and everyone in Tashan Village will be in danger for a period of time after the incident of Zhang Wanfu’s family grabbing food.

"Uncle Zhang, Auntie is thinking too much. How dare they come. If they come again, the whole village will not let him. This is too arrogant. Jiang Zhi, don't you think so?" It was Chen Ming's brother Chen Hao.He used to be a strong competitor for the village head, and he is a very capable person.At this time, he said a word of comfort dryly.

Before Jiang Zhi could speak, Uncle Qin who was sitting next to him said, "You think less, Xiaohao, if you go hunting in the woods and find a dead rabbit under a tree, then you go down When I go back to hunt, do I still want to go around that tree, maybe I can get something, this is the same reason. This time, this group of people got so much food without any effort. If they finish eating, do you think they will come?"

After hearing Uncle Qin's words, Chen Hao fell silent. He probably figured it out. That group of people didn't dare to dare. If they did it for the first time, there would be countless times after that.

"Then let's just wait and grab our food after they finish eating it? We planted the food with hard work, and we haven't eaten a few bites yet. If they rob it, I'll be so heartbroken. Uncle Guo said while sitting on the sofa, frowning.

"So, today we invite all capable people from our village here, just to sit together and discuss, see if we can come up with a good way to prevent such incidents from happening in the future." Jiang Zhi took over the conversation.

After hearing Jiang Zhi's words, everyone fell silent again, frowning and thinking hard.

Jiang Zhi picked up the cigarettes on the coffee table, distributed one to everyone present, and lit them again, and then the people in the living room were puffing away.

I couldn't bear it anymore and stood up, went to the kitchen and got more than 10 big sweet potatoes, put them on the path and brazier in the living room and roasted them.

"I think we have to remind the villagers that we have to be more vigilant in the future. If there is movement outside, we have to see who is opening the door." Uncle Guo said.

Everyone nodded when they heard it.

"This is necessary. You can't let the thieves take advantage of the loopholes. You have to remind the whole village to pay more attention to the movements of neighbors and neighbors. If you find something wrong, you should call someone immediately. I won't believe it if everyone in our village goes up." I can't deal with those bad guys." Chen Hao still followed the crowd tactics.Just those few bad guys, even the villagers can wipe them out with a single hoe.

"Zhang Wanfu's house was robbed so easily. I think part of the reason is that their courtyard wall is still the original wooden fence, which was built many years ago, let alone those who are strong and strong. Robbers, even an old man like me can kick open the courtyard door. If their house had a masonry wall like Lao Jiang’s, it would be difficult for the gang of robbers to enter the courtyard, let alone the house, you say yes No?" Zhou Jianguo also expressed his opinion.

"Yeah, these old days, the village is peaceful, so it's okay for him to use the original wooden fence, but now the world is in chaos, and the courtyard wall is a wooden fence, just to tell the thieves, this house is easy to rob." Zhang Uncle also said.

"Then we must hurry up and let the people who still have wooden walls change it to brick and stone." Liu Yujun said.

"I can't rush this matter now. It's freezing cold. Even if we are anxious to start construction, but now we can't stretch out our hands outside. No matter how to build the wall, and the ground is frozen, we can't dig it. The most important thing is One thing is, we don't have construction materials in hand now." Jiang Zhi said the current difficulties.

Uncle Guo nodded and said, "It seems that if you want to build the fence, it will have to be after the beginning of next spring."

Everyone began to think hard again, and I refilled the tea for everyone in a timely manner.I just observed that only Lao Zhangtou and Uncle Qin can taste the fragrance of tea slowly, while the others are drinking a meal of beef.

You know, the tea I brewed today is the tea from the only tea tree planted in the space. I have followed the tutorial for a long time, and I have also learned how to make tea by myself. I usually brew it for Dad Jiang and Dad Qu. I like it very much.

I secretly thought, these people are really bold. They should follow the theory that people in the Northeast eat meat and drink heavily, so drinking tea is also a big mouthful.

"Actually, I think the root cause of this matter is that Zhang Wanfu is not good at skills. If Zhang Wanfu has skills like yours, let alone a few robbers, even if there are more robbers, he will not be able to move a penny of his family." Nothing." Chen Hao thought for a while and said to Jiang Zhi.

They have all seen Jiang Zhi's arrogance several times, and they know that Jiang Zhi is very powerful and good at swordsmanship.

I agree with what he said. If someone comes to rob our family, we will keep it safe and let him come and go. In the end, whoever robs will not know.

"I agree with Chen Hao's words. This Wanfu is really too bearish. If you have a lot of strength, why don't you just support it and let others restrain you." Liu Yujun's thoughts are similar to Li Cheng's, and they both feel that Zhang Wanfu's fighting power is too weak.

"What are you talking about? Jiang Zhi trained it specially. Zhang Wanfu knows how to farm. If you give him a hoe, he can know how to use it. If you give him a knife, he can't do it either. Use it." Qin Shu listened to Liu Yujun's words and quickly stopped him, fearing that he would say something unpleasant again.
