Chapter 76: Putting the Ancients
The three of them left the prefectural committee courtyard and headed towards the Bajing Street Passenger Transport Center. When they arrived at the site, Xue Xiang suddenly decided to rest, "Fangping, I think we still eat sugarcane sweetly, from the top to the root, from the worst of the scenic spots, slowly see the best, so as not to look at the good first, and then look back, and lose interest."
"Comrade Xue, I only agree with the words of sweet sugarcane. Our Dejiang River does not have the worst scenery. It is famous mountains and rivers everywhere, but it is full of weather and different postures. How can we tell the difference? In the words of foreigners, there are a thousand Hamlets in the eyes of a thousand people. Some people look at the Jade Girl Peak, the mountains are towering and the mountains are magnificent, and some people think that Cuiping Mountain is deep and the ancient temple is hidden deep, which is a beautiful scenery. Some people think that Yunjin Lake is vast, the gulls fly, the egrets fly, and the boats are suddenly born. From then on, the rivers and seas are sent to the rest of their lives."
Jiang Fangping is a smart person, but he really doesn't lose to others.
Xue Xiang laughed and said, "It seems that it's mine. In someone's family, they say they are not good, so they are criticized. But I am a native of Dejiang now. Comrade Jiang is well protected. Since it is a good place, we will go from near to far and go to Yunu Peak first."
As Xue Xiang praised him, Jiang Fangping was so happy that he went up to buy the ticket. Dai Yubin lowered his head, his face was carefree, but he sighed in his heart that there was no simple person who could make a fortune in the Administration.
Previously, he was sitting on the bench in the Administrative Office, but he never found that the serious Director Jiang's ability to observe his expression was so amazing. But now, this person has repeatedly thought about things ahead and can lead the leader away. This kind of prediction ability is really important for being a secretary.
Dai Yubin was determined to study hard, so Jiang Fangping bought a ticket and came back. The last row of the seventh bus, the town seats. The location is good!
After an hour and a half bump, the three of them finally got off the bus in the small town at the foot of Jade Girl Peak. The old saying goes, "Looking at the mountain and running to death, that's true!
On weekdays, Xue Laosan stood in front of the window and stared at the Jade Girl Peak. The Jade Dragon was in the sky, and he felt that this mountain was right in front of him. But if he really wanted to go to the land, he had to waste so much effort. He still couldn't enter the mountain. It turned out that the town was still more than ten miles away from the foot of the mountain.
In fact, the Yunu Peak is only half a mile away from the town, but there is a tributary of the Minjiang River. In the past, the scenic spots of Yunu Peak have not been developed. There is no one entering the mountain, and there is no bridge connecting the foot of the mountain to the town. Every time you want to enter the mountain, you have to go around for more than ten miles. This is actually the same as Xue Xiang can see Yunu Peak in his office, but it takes so long to actually get here. In the final analysis, it is a traffic problem.
Jiang Fangping is Lao Dejiang. He has been here many times. He has to go up the mountain this time, but he does not need to lead the way. When he reaches the foot of the mountain, he will find a farmer nearby to buy a straw hat. He said that there is a spring in the Yu Nu Peak, and the water vapor is steaming. If you don’t bring this thing, there is no difference between following a steamer. If you keep it for a while, you have to soak your clothes soaked thoroughly.
As the saying goes, if there is demand, there is a market. The mountain people, no matter what economic policies your central government implements, their private economy was held vigorously a few years ago.
Look, several families at the foot of the mountain each lined up several simple stalls in front of the door. The stalls were all equipped with things to enter the mountain, straw hats to avoid wetness, barley wine to drive away the cold, three-point steel forks to protect themselves, and green bamboo sticks to climbing.
Unexpectedly, the business was good in such a simple stall in a wilderness. Before Xue Xiang and others arrived, there were already several young men and women with students-like appearances. In front of the stall, they bargained with a gray-haired but energetic old farmer. The six young men with students-like appearances seemed to be traveling in the mountains. Some took drawing boards, some held piccolos, and some carried food and bed sheets.
Seeing this scene, Xue Laosan was very relieved and thought to himself that the scenery of Jade Girl Peak is extraordinary, otherwise, how could it cause young people to come to climb the steep climb in groups.
As soon as the young men went, Xue Xiang and the other two arrived at the stall. Originally, according to Xue Laosan's intention, there would be no need to be such trouble to enter the Jade Girl Peak. However, Jiang Fangpingyan said that the Jade Girl Peak was surging because of the rushing springs and the water vapor in the mountains was extremely heavy. If you didn't wear a straw hat, you would definitely get wet when you go in. Maybe you would sit down and get sick, and then you found this place.
Xue Xiang did not expect that the old farmer here could do business and had the ability to accompany the market. He had three straw hats, three smooth green bamboo sticks, and the gourd barley wine that Xue Laosan specially asked for in order to taste the new things. In the words of the old farmer, the barley wine was given by him, otherwise he would not be able to take these things.
Xue Laosan took advantage of Dai Yubin's payment opportunity and had a few conversations with the old farmer, mainly asking about the transportation in the mountains and the guests who visited every day.
The old farmer has lived here for decades and is very familiar with the Jade Girl Peak. When he heard Xue Xiangxiang ask, maybe no one has chatted for a long time, he talked about the scenery in the mountains and said that although the roads here are rugged, there are no less than a hundred tourists coming here every day. He also said that this place is just one of the entrances to the mountain. Within a radius of ten miles, there are more than a dozen entrances to the mountain. He guarded the Jade Girl Peak, but with the coffin book for the rest of his life, the old woman on the side kept coughing, and obviously she could not bear to show off her wealth by showing off her old farmer.
After getting the news from the old farmer, the three of them packed up and waited to say goodbye. Before they took a few steps, they heard the old farmer shouting behind him, "Several guests, you can go anywhere. It's a good idea to go to Liupanshui. There are big animals in the mountains. I took away a piglet a few days ago. Be careful when entering the mountains. Don't panic when you encounter big animals. There are many wild animals in the mountains and there is no shortage of food for big animals. You three men, as long as you don't panic, it dares not mess with you!"
After Xue Xiang and the other three thanked the old farmer, he turned to the mountain pass, walked a few more steps, climbed up a slope, and disappeared from the old farmer's sight.
It was nearly nine o'clock, and the scorching sun rose into the sky, and the sun shone through the dense forest. The halo was fading early, casting a thin shadow of gold, sprinkling on the moist moss.
The scenery between the mountains is not the weather outside the mountains. When you enter here, you feel like you are surrounded by an extremely high-power aerator. The fresh air makes people feel relaxed and happy, and they can't help but head towards the greener mountains.
Jiang Fangping has been to this Jade Girl Peak many times. This time he entered the mountain, he led the way in front of his head. A green bamboo stick in his hand covered the smell of old mountain tourists. Sometimes he broke away the thorns and identified the good road, and sometimes he knocked out the whistle sound, shocking the little beasts to rush. What's more, he always used this green bamboo stick to pick up thick and fat lazy snakes, which surprised Xue Laosan.
Dai Yubin was stunned for a long time and blurted out, "Director Jiang, if you are not an official, our Jade Girl Peak has been developed. It is more than enough for you to be a tour guide here."
As soon as he finished speaking, Dai Yubin regretted it and said to a person who was determined to be an official, why didn’t he become an official? Isn’t this just being scolded?
Jiang Fangping, who was not very stubborn, was not angry at all this time and said happily, "Xiao Dai, you are saying this. Speaking of this Jade Girl Peak, I am very familiar with it. Earlier, I joined the team in Heishui County. At that time, I was the forest ranger of this Jade Girl Peak. I was very familiar with this Jade Girl Peak. Look at my ability to find snakes in the grass. I was able to practice it at that time. Alas, I haven't entered the mountains for more than ten years, and my skills are unfamiliar. If I had not been to the mountains in the early years, I would not have been so troublesome to clean up these reptiles. I would just click on the seven inches and beat them to death. It would be delicious again at noon..."
Older people like to talk about the past, not to mention that Jiang Fangping's green years were catching up with the great changes that burned passion, so there were naturally many topics to talk about, and this was very strong.
Walking in the mountains, although the air is fresh and the scenery is excellent, the empty mountains are silent and a bit creepy. Jiang Fangping is willing to present the ancients, and Xue Xiang and Dai Yubin are also interesting to listen to, and from time to time they talk to him and continue.
"... In 1958, Director Liu, the newly appointed Dejiang Revolutionary Committee, issued an instruction to take the Jade Nv Peak as the smelting rear of the two blast furnaces of Baofeng, Heishui, No. 7 and No. 8, which means that the Jade Nv Peak, which is close to these two counties, will be cut off all the firewood used as blast furnaces. Director Liu is a newcomer, and he didn't know that this Jade Nv Peak is a barrier to cross Guang'an. Where is Guang'an? It is a famous coal blackspot in Shu. If this Jade Nv Peak is gone, the entire Dejiang River will be dyed black by the coal ash scraped from Guang'an. But at that time, Director Liu didn't listen and took the central government's policy to make a big stick to clean up the opposition. Seeing that the Revolutionary Committee was bound to die, he wanted to use the Jade Nv Peak. At that time, Director Xia, the Forestry Bureau, sneaked into the mountain with his sons and his old disciples. "
"That night, I heard a few cannons. The next morning, everyone discovered that the Wupanshui suddenly changed the route and became Liupan, blocking the original mountain road. Now, I was going to cut down trees. There was a Little Minjiang River in front and Liupanshui River on it. There was no way out at all. I couldn't move. At that time, Director Liu was so angry that he directly withdrew Director Xia. During the turmoil, Director Xia was even punished for this. At that time, I secretly thought it was not worth it for Director Xia. But a few years ago, when Director Xia passed away, the funeral team lined up dozens of miles. When the burial was buried, almost all the people in Dejiang could come. There were more than 100,000 people, and everyone was wearing hemp. Almost the cemetery was flattened. That day, all Dejiang was almost filial. Director Xia was worth it for this life..."
