The Pentium Era - South to North

Zhang Xiangbei told everyone: "Hainan is such a pity. There are actually a lot of good things here, such as this small yellow beef and Eastern goat. Only those who have eaten in Hainan will know how delicious they are. The island has almost no reputation, and few people on the mainland know about it.

"It's Wenchang Chicken. If not for the many people from Wenchang who went to Nanyang and brought Wenchang Chicken to Southeast Asia, no one would know about it now."

Speaking of this, Bao Tianbin became angry. He said:

"It's not just about things, it's also about people. Take a look at what we can do in Hainan. Just do your agriculture and tourism. What kind of free port should we make? The most ridiculous thing is Haicheng. We are building CBD here and there, and we want to build an international financial center.

"Hainan is far better at international finance. The biggest customer of all the banks in Hainan is HNA. Almost half of the land in Haicheng has been taken away by HNA. HNA has kidnapped all the banks and a city in Hainan. Well, that Chen Feng is the father of all bank presidents.

"The same goes for industry. Hainan used to have a new continent, with Yangshengtang and Red Bull drinks. Now, it's just a sea can and it's half dead. What else is there? It usually takes three hours to cross the ferry. You can't even get through a day during the holidays. Ferries and planes are suspended during typhoons. People on the entire island can't come in and goods can't leave. You have to create a ghost free port.

"When I talked about people earlier, I just meant people. The same goes for Hainan University. If you were rooted in this land and built an agricultural college to serve this island, how great would that be? You might even be able to produce talented people. We seek to be big and comprehensive, and build a comprehensive university, but as a result, diplomas have little value, and even after many years, we can’t produce a decent person, both teachers and students.”

Bao Tianbin cursed and everyone laughed. Bao Tianbin’s classmate in Qiongzhong Agriculture and Rural Affairs Bureau was named Fu Zhirong. Fu Zhirong said with a smile:

"Old Bao, it's a pity that you are engaged in real estate and selling vegetables. However, I agree with Hainan University. Like our Agricultural Bureau, there are no serious agricultural students. They are all monks like me, which is to say that they are part-time Here at Gong, no one else understands him, and they are too lazy to understand."

"That's why I've been managed in such a mess by you." Bao Tianbin said.

"Comrades and comrades, you can't just say this. You have never done grassroots work and you don't understand it. At the grassroots level, even if you want to do things well, not many people will give you a shit."

Fu Zhirong said: "If you don't talk about other things, it's just like poverty alleviation. We go down to their villages and distribute chickens and ducks to every household. We tell them that when you raise chickens and ducks, chickens and eggs will lay eggs, and more and more chickens will be laid." , life became easier. If the chickens and ducks were not enough, we also gave them feed. As a result, the chickens and ducks were raised, but after a year, there were no more chickens and they were still laying eggs."

Zhang Xiangbei wondered: "Where have they all gone?"

"Eat it. Today there are guests at home. Kill one. Tomorrow, if you are greedy, kill one. I will kill all the chickens for you. This is not bad. And the ones that were given to the piglets, too. After more than a month, the pigs were gone, and he roasted the suckling pig and ate it up."

Fu Zhirong said, everyone laughed, but felt very uncomfortable in their hearts.

Fu Zhirong turned around and said to Zhang Xiangbei: "Mr. Zhang, you said before that the beef in Hainan is delicious. It is true. Not only the beef here in Qiongzhong is delicious, but the yellow beef in Ding'an is also delicious. The century-old beef in Ding'an Xiangou The cattle market is the largest live cattle trading market in Hainan.

"Next to the cattle market slaughterhouse of Xiangou Food Station, there is a beef gourmet street with more than 60 beef shops. They are slaughtered and sold now. You will eat it and your mouth will fall off. It is so delicious. Mr. Zhang, if you want to go, I’ll take you there, I’m familiar with that place and go there often.”

Zhang Xiangbei was very interested after hearing this, and several people made an appointment immediately. The next morning, they would first go to the cattle raising house in Qiongzhong, and then go to Ding'an in the afternoon to see the live cattle trading market there. In the evening, they would go to the beef farm mentioned by Fu Zhirong. Eat at the gourmet street and eat with your mouth crooked.

"You don't have to go to work tomorrow?" Bao Tianbin asked Fu Zhirong, and Fu Zhirong said: "You guys come here to buy vegetables and cattle, and I'm going to work with you? By the way, there is new tea today, and the meal is ready. Do you want to go have tea?" "

"Is the tea here in Qiongzhong also famous?"

Zhang Xiangbei asked, Bao Tianbin, Fu Zhirong, and another comrade laughed. Zhang Xiangbei and Xiao Wu were both puzzled by their laughter.

Bao Tianbin told him that the new tea is not tea, but the chicken from the chicken station. If a new girl arrives today, the boss will send text messages to these old gangsters saying that the new tea has arrived.

"It makes you look like you are not a gangster." Fu Zhirong said, "As a man, if you are full of wine and food, you don't need to drink tea."

Zhang Xiangbei quickly said, "Don't go, don't go. I don't have this hobby. If you want to go, you can go on your own."

"I'm not going either. The boss is here. Why would I go to drink tea by myself?" Bao Tianbin said.

The next morning, Fu Zhirong took them to a village below.

After leaving Qiongzhong County and arriving down below, time seemed to have frozen. Xiao Wu and Bao Tianbin said that they didn’t know it between Haicheng and Sanya, but when they came here to look at it, the gap was really big. It was about 80 years away from us. In the 1990s, it was about the same time when household responsibility system was first introduced.

Bao Tianbin said: "Hainan is like this."

However, the mountains here are green, the sky is blue, and the stream is very clear. There are more than a dozen cattle grazing leisurely by the stream. The grass blades are shining in the sun, and the dew on them is still there. Not killed.

Fu Zhirong told them that this was the little scalper in Qiongzhong, also called Gaofeng scalper and Lei Qiongniu.

"Were the Li people free range in the first place?" Bao Tianbin asked.

"I don't know. Anyway, everyone raises cows like this. Now people can't tell them apart, let alone cows. Our Qiongzhong is a Li Autonomous County. If you look on the street now, can you tell who are the Li people?" Fu Zhirong explain.

They went to two cattle households in the village. One family raised twenty-six cows, and the other raised thirty-one cows. However, they did not see a single cow in the cowshed. They said that they had all been let out. By night Will come back.

Bao Tianbin asked who in the family had gone to herd the cows. The woman smiled and said, "No one was herding the cows." She opened the door and went out by herself. They would go up and down the mountain and look for food by herself.

"Aren't you afraid of getting lost?" Zhang Xiangbei asked.

"Don't be afraid of this place. If you haven't come back by night, go and look for him at other houses in the village. He must have gone home with other cows," the woman said.

"Aren't all your twenty-some cows together?" Zhang Xiangbei asked curiously.

The woman said no to him. Cows are just like humans. Each cow has its own companion. Humans are not their brothers and they are not willing to play together. Do you think that’s right?

Zhang Xiangbei smiled and said yes.

Fu Zhirong said: "When we first came in, we saw a dozen cows by the creek. Could they be yours?"

The woman said that there might be several families, but they were all in the village and wouldn’t go far.

Zhang Xiangbei said that it seems that the cattle here are really free-range and can be managed more loosely than people. It is really easy to raise cattle in this way. The cattle will definitely be in a good mood. No wonder the meat is so delicious.

Fu Zhirong watched Bao Tianbin keep laughing. Bao Tianbin asked him why he was laughing. Fu Zhirong ignored him and turned to Zhang Xiangbei and others and said that Lao Bao's meat must not taste good. When he was still in the army, He's such a dick, he looks worried every day, as if everyone owes him money.

Everyone was amused by him.

In the afternoon, Zhang Xiangbei and the others drove to Ding'an on the Wensan Expressway. Ding'an is far away from Qiongzhong and close to Haicheng, just across the Nandu River. In the evening, Zhang Xiangbei and the others went back to Haicheng to live. The next day they went directly to Ding'an. From Haicheng to Baisha.

The Ding'an Centenary Cattle Market on Xiangou Xiantun Road is a live cattle trading market that spontaneously formed. The market was a few acres of land. It was originally a barren slope. Later, people flattened the place and turned it into a cattle market. Look down on this place. More than 60,000 live cattle are traded here every year. Excluding typhoon days and Spring Festival, almost 200 cattle are sold every day.

Before Zhang Xiangbei and the others arrived at the century-old cattle market, they saw that the fields nearby were growing grass instead of grain. Groups of cattle were grazing in these fields, and there were no cattle around. Cow people.

On the highway, there are more and more cars with high fences, all of which are used to buy and sell cattle. Many of the cars are also loaded with cattle. When driving past their cars, you can smell it even with the windows closed. The smell of cow dung.

Xiao Wu drove the car very slowly. He was afraid that a cow would suddenly appear on the side of the road and he would not be able to dodge it.

These cattle trucks were very arrogant and drove faster than them. One by one they passed by honking their horns. Fu Zhirong laughed at Xiao Wu and said, you are really slower than the cattle trucks.

They found an open space and parked the car. They walked over and arrived at the market. Although it was afternoon and the peak time had passed, there were still many cows and people here. They were milling around. Many people here were Fu Zhirong. They all know each other, he and Zhang Xiangbei said, they all come from Qiongzhong, there are cattle farmers, people who come here to sell cattle, and cattle dealers who have been here for a long time.

Cattle farmers bring their cattle here. If they are not happy to sell them or do not know how to sell them, they put them in the cattle sheds of these cattle dealers and entrust them to sell them. Every time a cattle dealer sells a cow, he or she will pump water from the middle, or sell it directly. It's for cattle dealers, but then the price will be lower. There are several cattle dealers in Qiongzhong.

The bull market is very smelly. They walked around in the bull market for more than an hour. Zhang Xiangbei felt that every pore in his body was filled with the smell of cow feces, but he seemed to be very excited and dizzy, as if he had smoked marijuana. Bao Tianbin Say, this is bullishness, bullishness to the sky.

Everyone laughed.

Fu Zhirong looked at his watch and told Zhang Xiangbei, "We've had enough of smelling cow shit, let's go eat beef."

Zhang Xiangbei said yes.

Not just one street, but several streets around the cattle market are full of beef restaurants. The houses here are very simple, with the facades facing the street wide open, and no one is sitting inside. Everyone is sitting in the shed outside the door, naked. The shoulder is eating beef.

The beef restaurant here basically serves hot pot, and the beef is freshly slaughtered. It is what Taiwanese call warm-body beef, which is tender and juicy.

The hot pot here uses a double pot, with a circle on the side used to fry the simply marinated beef, and the middle is used to rinse the fresh beef.

They walked to the door of a store and saw four shirtless people sitting at the big table at the door. Zhang Xiangbei was about to say, let's go to the next store.

It would be too boring to eat hot pot like this while sitting indoors.

Unexpectedly, when the four people saw them, they all stood up and shouted "Old Fu" and "Old Bao" loudly. It turned out that they were waiting for them here. These four people were also Bao Tianbin and Fu Zhirong. Comrades who have retired from the army are in peace.
