Volume Four, Hou Fengbaili, Chapter 58: Private Interview with Xue Xiangwei (2)

As soon as he thought of this, Xue Xiang could still watch quietly. After throwing the handlebars, he ran towards the hillside on the left. Before he could walk a few steps, he found that his feet were deeply trapped in the mud. It turned out that the soil was so soft that the child could still bear the weight. How could he be able to do this?

"Old Wang, Chaohui, don't come over, hurry up and call the children on the slope down, and be careful to be slow!"

When Wang Gang and Chu Zhaohui saw that Xue Xiang's legs had already fallen to the bends of their legs, they changed their color in horror and rushed towards him to save Xue Xiang, but Xue Xiang stopped him from coming.

The two looked at each other and didn't know what to do. It was necessary to save the child, but if County Magistrate Xue was caught, he was afraid of losing the official hat.

"Fuck you over quickly, and wait for old age to die!"

Xue Xiang scolded and pointed out the key points, and then the two of them ran towards the hillside.

"Children, come down quickly, enoki mushrooms, two cents per catty, two cents per catty, outdated, outdated, no run, no run, no run, no run, no run, no run, no run, no disintegration, I don't want any."

Mr. Xue opened his voice and shouted loudly. At this moment, he had already stood at the bottom of the slope, but his body was so dirty that he could not see the true appearance of the clothes.

It turned out that just now, Mr. Xue pulled up onions on dry land and jumped up. Her left foot gently placed a sapling as thick as a finger. The saplings broke in response to the sound. Mr. Xue finally borrowed the force and fell horizontally in the air, falling on the slope, and immediately rolled down. In this way, her straw straw hat fell, and the shirt and pants inside naturally could not be preserved.

If Mr. Xue was thinking about this cry, he would not think about it for a while if he had not been a person with impetuous minds. Because Mr. Xue wanted to let the children come down from the mountain obediently, and to ensure that they were not fast. It was really difficult.

Because if Xue Laoguang said that the mountain was about to collapse, everyone should come down quickly and don’t go fast. There will be two situations. First, the children will think that he is a cheating person and want to cheat everyone away, so that they can pick enoki mushrooms alone. Second, if the children believe it, in a hurry, they will fight each other and make sure that they will slip quickly. In this way, the action will be big. Maybe the mudslide will be triggered immediately.

When Mr. Xue talks about grinding mushrooms, he is smart and much more secure. One is to lure them at a high price, and adds an outdated sentence. There are no other things that these children don’t listen. After all, even if the current enoki mushrooms are taken from the supply and marketing cooperative, they only cost five cents a pound. Xue Xiang has increased several times, and the benefits are the ones that people want. Children are no exception. Secondly, Mr. Xue adds and doesn’t want any of the lost goods or the scattered goods, which completely limits the speed of the children.

Sure enough, Old Xue Rulei's shouts stopped just now, and the twenty little heads on the hillside on the left deflected over. Xue Xiang took out a stack of banknotes from his pocket and shook the void. Now, the bunch of little maomao had no doubts. He picked up the basket and walked down the slope, controlling the speed while protecting the basket, looking serious.

Xue Xiang shouted loudly. Wang Gang and Chu Zhaohui, who were looking for the other slope, heard it naturally, and felt something, and then they started to scream. In an instant, the children on the slope also walked down the slope step by step.

Looking at the surging and slow crowds on both sides, Old Xue felt a little relieved and stayed in fear for a while. The forty dolls finally gathered on the stone, each holding baskets, and not yelling, but the meaning was very obvious, that was to ask Xue Xiang to fulfill his promise.

Xue Xiangzi would not lie with a group of children, and the small baskets in front of him were half full. Even if they were full, the loose and light enoki mushrooms could not reach two pounds. Xue Xiang swept a little a little, pointed out two great unity from the banknotes, held high, and smiled and said, "I have twenty yuan here. Not only do I buy your enoki mushrooms, but also buy you a truth. Then, you will break the 20 yuan in the town and divide it evenly. I will give you this enoki mushrooms again, but after I give it to you, I will not be allowed to sell them anymore. I will keep them for myself, it will be very long."

Looking at the childish, simple little faces in front of him, covered in mud and ragged clothes, Xue Xiang's heart was already sore. The oldest was just about Xiao Yi, eleven or twelve years old, younger than the little guy, one or two years younger than the little guy, and his black hands were covered with yellow mud, so few dolls had shoes on their feet. At the moment, Xue Xiang said twenty yuan, so it was not that he was unable to give more, but even if he gave ten or fifty, what could it be? His responsibility was not to enrich one person and one family, but to enrich the surnames of the whole county, not to mention that this little money could not be rich for each person and one family.

"Thank you uncle, we only sell enoki mushrooms, not the truth. The teacher said that the children should be honest, so we only tell the truth, and asking questions is not money, so we don't sell the truth."

The person who spoke was a little boy, his nose was so clear that he fell out. He said something and sucked it, his little face was full of seriousness.

Xue Xiang was in a tragic mood and said, "Good kids, you are all good kids. Come on, kids, let's talk to you."

Although the two slopes are still far away from this stone, Xue Xiang is still worried that the mudslide will break out suddenly and explode violently, which will lead the children further away.

After everyone stood still, Xue Xiang continued: "My question is very simple, why don't you go? I see that most of you wear red scarves around your neck, and they should be born, but now it's not time for the busy holiday, are you running away? Children, making money is important, but that's the business of your parents. Your current task is to practice. Only by practicing well can you make more money."

Mr. Xue said nakedly that Xi was trying to make money, and he didn't feel inappropriate in his heart. Because in his opinion, he was talking nonsense, and he could not speak as much as the sincerity of the truth. He said that he would serve the motherland and give back to society. Now, the motherland and society made these babies climb mountains and pick mushrooms on rainy days. Could it be that Xue Xiang could still say it? He blushed when he thought about it.

"Uncle, we were not escaping, we were driven out by the teacher. We said we could not pay all the teaching funds and we would not allow class!" The answer was still the little boy just now.

"What kind of education fund?" This time Xue Xiang didn't ask the children, but turned to look at Wang Gang and Chu Chaohui.

The two of them shook their heads in a daze, obviously they had never heard of such a charge.

"It's just to make up for the food expenses for the teacher. Our teacher said that the school could not pay the salary, so we asked each family to make some money first and buy rice for the teachers first. Otherwise, the teacher would starve to death and no one would go to class." The answer was that the tallest among the bunch of dolls was a little girl. Judging from her appearance, she looked similar to the little girl of the Xia family. I don't know if she was in junior high school or a young girl.

"Boys, which school do you all come from?"

"I'm Zhou Gang Xiao"

"I'm a small trench"

"I'm a small bridge entrance"

"I'm from Chengguanzhong"

“……………………”

After Xue Xiang asked, the children reported it out loud.

Listening to Tong Sheng's words, Xue Xiang's heart was boiling. At this moment, the ignorance in his heart was burning. If Cai Congding was in front of him, he would definitely slap him. Even if Cai Congding was not in front of him, Old Xue had already cursed his ancestors in his heart for eighteen generations.

Thinking about it, I think how pitiful Cai Congding said in front of Mr. Xue. Mr. Xue fought for no reason and had a fight with Mao Youcai, and allocated the largest education fund since the establishment of Xiaoshan County - a total of 50,000 yuan. Now, this bastard has left the teachers without money to eat, forcing the children to dig mushrooms on the mountain. If a mudslide occurs, the death of Cai is not redeemed, so why don’t Mr. Xue be furious?

"It's a bitch, and the old man dares to be greedy for money!" Xue Xiang was furious. However, he still smiled on his face: "Okay, kids, hurry up and take a shower, pack your schoolbag, and pencil case, and you can get in the afternoon."

"Uncle, you'll give us 19 yuan. Although no one can get more than 50 cents per cent, it's still far from the money we have to pay. How can we get it in the afternoon?" The little boy with a snot nose was clever and he was determined to have a fortune in the blink of an eye.

Xue Xiang said, "Uncle said it. I can't make a mistake. I'm not allowed to pick mushrooms again in the future. I've wrapped the grinding mushrooms on the soil slopes on both sides. Okay, children, go back quickly." As he spoke, Xue Xiang handed the two bills to the tall girl, the only doll in the newspaper.

Seeing that the children finally got the money, they immediately jumped up in joy and chattered at Xue Xiang to thank him. The pair of black eyes were stuck to the two pieces of money, so they could not move them away.

The tall child bowed to Xue Xiang and said "Thank you uncle", and was surrounded by a group of children and ran towards the city gate.

"wrong!"

"not good!"

Xue Xiang and Chu Chaohui actually called out at the same time!

"Boys, wait, wait!"

Mr. Xue immediately shouted loudly to stop the dolls.

The children turned around and stared at the rich uncle with curiosity. There were also many strange people wondering if this uncle had figured it out and thought that he had given too much money and wanted to get back the money.

Xue Xiang took a few steps, and arrived in front of him, and said anxiously: "How many children are there in total who are here to pick mushrooms?"

"Nineteen, I said it just now." The little snot baby took his bare arms and walked around his nose, and finally wiped out the snot that had been in and out for a long time.

Xue Xiang's heart fell and said anxiously: "You can see wherever you have arrived. I just clicked it and there are only eighteen. Look, who is missing."

It turned out that Xue Xiang and Chu Zhaohui shouted out at the same time, and they discovered that there were only eighteen dolls in front of them, one less than the nineteen whom the snot baby said.

"Oh no, it's because the little flower is gone. She must have picked it to Dulongpo. Eryi, I won't ask you to look at her. Look at her. How can you promise to lose the person? Can Dulongpo go? Although there are more grinding mushrooms, it's high and steep. The Poison Dragon Pond is so deep below. If the little flower is planted, there is still a good idea. How can I live if I call my second aunt?"

The tall girl grabbed the snot baby's ear and started to scold.

The snot baby's ears were pulled long, and he grinned while grinning, "Xiaohua promised not to go. I have to bow my head when I pick the grinding mushrooms. I can't always look at her, otherwise what am I here? Okay, I'll go back to find her. You go to the town to share the money first."

The snot baby is only in his teens and looks very precocious and has a very male responsibility.

But at this moment, Xue Xiang had no time to appreciate this little man. He looked for Wang Gang and asked the terrain of Dulongpo in detail, and called on the two of them to look at the dolls, and ran away. (To be continued)
