Chapter 556: What I Saw in the Small Village

The Qilian Mountains are located in the northeast of Qinghai Province and the western border of Gansu Province in China. It is one of the main mountain ranges in China.

It consists of many parallel mountain ranges and wide valleys running from northwest to southeast. Because it is located on the south side of the Hexi Corridor, it is also called Nanshan. It is 800 kilometers long from east to west, 200 to 400 kilometers wide from north to south, 4,000 to 6,000 meters above sea level, with a total of 3,306 glaciers and an area of ​​about 2,062 square kilometers.

This time, Gu Hongyu and his team were going to Weiqi Town under the jurisdiction of Shan County. A large area of ​​this town is covered by the Qilian Mountains.

The road to the destination was pretty good. After driving for more than two hours, it was almost noon when everyone arrived at a village at the foot of the Qilian Mountains below Weiqi Town.

Perhaps because people have been visiting the Qilian Mountains for a long time, this small village is obviously more popular than many villages along the way. At noon, the village was already filled with smoke. In addition to the sound of chickens and dogs, there were also some children chasing and playing.

When the convoy arrived at the entrance of the village, there were already several cars parked there. It seemed that someone had come earlier today, or another group of tourists had already settled in the village.

"This is it. I'm so hungry. Let's have lunch here at noon. The car will stop here. How about we go into the mountains from this village after lunch?" Liang Qinghui said first.

No one objected. Chen Luofeng looked at the expressions of the crowd and waved his hand: "Let's go in and take a look."

A group of little kids looked at Gu Hongyu's large group of people and the convoy. They were not timid at all. They all circled around the car and asked them if they wanted to find a place to eat.

Gu Hongyu couldn't help but smile when he asked the children to attract customers. The adults in this small village really thought of it.

But since they met, Gu Hongyu took out some fruits and gave them to the little kid and asked softly: "Little guy. Can so many of us eat in the village?"

"What's wrong with that? My family received dozens of people a few days ago, and those people praised my family's food for being delicious." A little kid said.

"How can it be better than my home? My father's skill in making wild game is the best in the village." Another little kid said unconvinced.

"Let's go to my house. I have prepared enough food today."

"..."

Before entering the village, these little guys have already started fighting among themselves.

Gu Hongyu said on the side: "Let's do this. You go back quickly and ask your parents to cook a few specialties in each family. The dishes cannot be repeated. We will come later."

The group of little kids did not leave after hearing what Gu Hongyu said. A boy tilted his head and looked at Gu Hongyu and asked: "Uncle, words are not enough. You have to pay a deposit in advance to eat."

The little boy's words made everyone laugh. Liang Qinghui took the opportunity to attack: "Haha, Hongyu. Your trick is useless, even children don't work. Now the world needs real money."

After that, he stood up and faced the little kids and said: "Okay, uncle will give you 100 yuan each. You go back and report the news. If uncle is hungry, he won't give you money!"

"Okay, uncle, wait, my family cooks the fastest!"

"My father is also very good."

"..."

After taking the money. The group of little kids rushed back to the village.

The village has a piece of land away from the road, where various vegetables and crops are planted. When Gu Hongyu and his group walked into the village, a middle-aged man came towards them in a hurry.

Seeing a hint of joy on Gu Hongyu and his group's faces, so many people entering the village means that their village has more income.

"Is that the money you gave to the children just now?" the middle-aged man asked.

"Well, that's the deposit we paid for the meal. These kids really don't want to see the pigeons and don't give up the eagle!" Liang Qinghui replied with a smile.

"Well, follow me." The middle-aged man spoke even more enthusiastically. Looking at a group of people dressed in extraordinary clothes, he led the way and introduced: "Don't look at our village as small. There are many people coming and going now, and many of them are going to the mountains. It looks like you are going to the mountains too?"

"Haha, uncle has a good eye. Now that the autumn weather is clear and cool, we just go in for a walk." It was Liang Qinghui who took the lead and said.

The middle-aged man patted his chest and said, "You are here. I am not bragging. There is a shortcut from here to the Qilian Mountains. You can see the scenery in the photos. There are also many wild animals. If you are lucky, you will definitely get a lot."

"Can you hunt here?" Gulin finally got the chance to speak after holding back for a long time.

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "To be honest, the Qilian Mountains have been made into a protected area by the state, but there are still many villages like ours in the mountains. Many villages have been living by hunting for generations. I am afraid that the state cannot stop such habits, and the villagers will not obey. Now there are many more well-equipped tourists who go into the mountains to hunt. Who is managing it now?"

Although this is said in a vulgar and simple way, it is true. Many things in China are like this. There are policies from the top and countermeasures from the bottom. Many things gradually change after being implemented.

If the law enforcement team encounters ordinary villagers hunting, they may confiscate hunting guns and prey or detain and fine them. However, if they encounter hunters who are children of high-ranking officials or have some background, it may be a different situation. Not only will there be no punishment, but they may even fight to be their lackeys.

As he spoke, the middle-aged man led everyone into the village.

This village is indeed very compact. There are only thirty-four households in the whole village. From the entrance of the village, they are scattered in the fields, and you can basically see them at a glance.

When they entered the village, there were a few native dogs who planned to show off their power. Unexpectedly, when they saw the golden and silver lions, the group of native dogs who usually dominated the village fled away in an instant. This made the middle-aged man look carefully. He glanced at the golden lion and silver lion, and then his eyes widened, and he had a new understanding of Gu Hongyu and this group of people.

"Uncle, my food is ready."

"My father's specialty dish is almost ready."

"Uncle, come with me. You can usually eat the food they cook, but my family caught game yesterday. It will be an eye-opener for you later."

"..."

Seeing Gu Hongyu and his group spend a lot of money, especially the fruit that Gu Hongyu gave them, they couldn't forget the taste. A group of kids were vying to invite them to their homes, so that they could get the first one who was near the water.

The middle-aged man coughed: "Gouzi, Dabao... please stop barking. Go back and tell your parents to move the table to the courtyard. The dishes of each family will be the same."

The middle-aged man's words were very helpful. The little kids ran away again in a swarm. The rest of the people continued to follow him slowly into the village. Another group of tourists also saw Gu Hongyu's large group of people. Except for many people who were looking after themselves. Besides eating, someone actually stood up and walked towards Gu Hongyu and the others.
