Hello 1983

As soon as this was mentioned, Xiao Wu became furious: "Xie Lao San and those guys are just a group of flies, and they bite upwards when they smell it."

Yu Guangming glared at him: "It's not you who show off in front of others."

Xiao Wu argued in his mouth: "I don't want to anger those grandchildren."

Liu Qingshan can also guess a general idea, they must have met during the Chinese New Year, Xiao Wu and the others looked down on Xie Lao San and his group, and since they are flourishing here, they will inevitably run on each other.

To put it bluntly, it was two groups of children who looked at each other wrongly.

It is impossible for Xie Laosan and his group to come here just because of Xiao Wu's few words. Obviously, they have planned for a long time.

So he said calmly: "As the saying goes, when soldiers come to block, water comes to cover, we have already taken the lead, don't worry, this is not the fault of Brother Wu, what should come will always come."

"But we can't underestimate anyone. What does that sentence mean? We must despise the enemy strategically, and we must pay attention to the enemy tactically."

Everyone nodded in unison: This makes sense.

After unifying their thoughts, it was almost time to finish the meal, and Aunt Xu and the others had already come back to cook for everyone.

Years ago, Liu Qingshan also sent Aunt Xu 1 yuan, but she was so frightened that she dared not take so much.

Just cooking and cleaning, it costs more than 500 yuan a year.

Liu Qingshan explained to her with a smile: "You can keep it, my brother Qiang is about to start a family, and he needs money."

Aunt Xu also understood: the money is actually not for her and her daughter, but for her son.

It's just that if you give the money directly to Xu Guoqiang, he will definitely not accept it, and it doesn't conform to the current atmosphere, so I just transferred it from her.

Aunt Xu then accepted the money: "Mr. Liu, then thank you, friends like Guoqiang are all good."

After returning home, he showed the money to his son. Xu Guoqiang was silent for a while, and then asked his mother to put it away. He knew that even if he returned it, Liu Qingshan would definitely not accept it.

Then help as much as possible in the future.

So after the new year, Aunt Xu brought her daughter here again, and worked even harder, and really regarded these young men as her own children.

Liu Qingshan and the others also brought a lot of vegetables with them when they came back this time, and they were all green vegetables. There was nothing they could do about it. In the winter here, there was really no greenery.

More than a dozen bundles of leeks, more than a dozen bundles of celery, cucumbers, eggplants, coriander, and the like, it must have been a little wilted during the two days on the road.

After handing over all the vegetables to Mrs. Xu, the old lady was very happy: "These are all rare things, more expensive than meat, and there is no place to buy them if you have money."

So I made a few dishes: stir-fried leeks with shredded potatoes, fried vermicelli with celery, and a large bowl of cold dishes.

As for the remaining vegetables, put them all in the potato cellar, and they will be fine for a week.

During the Chinese New Year, everyone is really a bit tired of eating big fish and meat, and these few small dishes are just right for our appetite.

It was the first time after the year that we got together, and if we could drink, of course we couldn't avoid drinking some. Liu Qingshan also drank two cups symbolically.

He was a good drinker, but never a drinker.

After dinner, it was dark outside, and everyone went to the city to watch the lantern show.

It is only these two days that I can rest and relax. After the sixteenth of the first lunar month, border trade will restart, and I will be busy again.

Leave someone to guard, anyway, for the three-day lantern show, you can go there in shifts.

Unexpectedly, Ma Laosan, who always loves to join in the fun, waved his hands and said, "Go and play, I will stay in the warehouse and watch over here. Firecrackers are the most likely to cause fires during festivals."

As for the guards, there are Zhang Long and Li Tie, and this is not in line with Ma Changzhan's style?

Then, I saw him take out a book and read it with great interest.

"Third brother, where did you get the manuscript again?"

Xiao Wu went up abruptly and snatched it down. He thought that Ma Lao San was reading that kind of book.

As a result, I looked at the cover, but there was a drawing of a large ship that was about to sink, and I muttered: "Titanic, what book is this?"

Ma Laosan hastily went up to snatch it: "The new publication, young people are fascinated by it."

Xiao Wu twitched her lips: "What's so good about foreigners' books? If you want to read them, you have to read Journey to the West."

After finishing speaking, he was still humming: "Dare to ask where the road is, the road is at your feet..."

"It's a TV series, okay? Can you understand the original work? Ma Laosan couldn't help but stab Xiao Wu."

If you want to talk about what is the most popular during the Chinese New Year this year, it is undoubtedly the broadcast of the TV series Journey to the West, which has simply fascinated the people of the whole country.

As soon as the title song Yungong Xun sounds, all adults and children will be pulled in front of the TV immediately.

It wasn't until the ending song Dare Ask Where Is the Way finished singing that the kids rushed to pee with their stomachs in their arms.

Xiao Wu was a little unconvinced by what he said: "That's better than your xenophobia."

"Hey, you're wrong this time. One of the two authors of this book is from China." Ma Laosan pointed to the name on the cover:

"The Victor in the front is marked as a Frenchman, and the Mountain in the back is our own!"

Xiao Wu muttered again: "Mounting, what a bad name, it still smells like a foreign country, I guess this guy is also a xenophobia."

Li Xuemei next to him laughed twice: "Little Brother, Mountain Mountain means mountain, high mountain or big mountain in English."

Xiao Wu scratched the back of his head, then glanced at Liu Qingshan: "Is it the mountain of Qingshan?"

Liu Qingshan blinked, then nodded.

When Tan Yong took this book to publish, he also asked Liu Qingshan how to sign it.

Liu Qingshan didn't want to be a writer, so he casually took the English name "Mountain".

Unexpectedly, after its publication, this book was immediately sought after by young people.

Li Xuemei has already finished reading this book, and she yearns for the love story in it, so she naturally loves the author:

"I think, this Mr. Mountain must be a man as majestic as a mountain to write such an epic work."

Among the people in the room, apart from Liu Qingshan pretending to be confused, Li Tieniu was the only one who knew the details.

He finally couldn't help it anymore, and he yelled, "Do you know who this Mountain is?"

who?Everyone looked at him in unison.

Just as Li Tieniu was about to break the news, he saw the little senior brother glaring at him, apparently not allowing him to speak out.

But when the words came to his lips, he couldn't take them back, so he just slipped out: "Mountain is a green mountain!"

Xiao Wu pouted: "It's up to you to say, we all know that Mountain means the mountain of Qingshan."

Li Tieniu slammed his big eyeballs: I really didn't mean that.

Then he was dragged out of the house by Liu Qingshan: "Let's go, let's go to watch the lanterns."

Chapter 484 Shocked

On the seventeenth day of the first lunar month, according to the custom, noodles are eaten for breakfast on this day.

Aunt Xu used the leeks brought by Liu Qingshan to beat the leek meat stew, everyone ate it deliciously.

After a full meal, everyone headed to Daheihe Island with big bags and small bags.

Today is the first day of restarting border trade, so even Liu Qingshan is going to have a look at the trading shed.

There are also a lot of people going to the market today, and they didn't make less money in the past month or so.

Even those who make small troubles can earn tens of thousands of dollars, so people's enthusiasm is unprecedentedly high.

When we arrived at the riverside, the surface of the river was still frozen, and there was no sign of civilization at all.It's just that the temperature is a little higher than before, about fifteen or six degrees below zero.

Generally speaking, the Longjiang River does not open until the beginning of April every year.

After the opening of the river, cargo ships can only be used to dump goods, and loading and unloading are not as convenient as in winter.

At that time, you will have to take a ferry to go to the island to trade, unlike now, you will arrive there in a short stroll.

Along the way, there are many familiar faces, all of whom are full of joy, saying hello to each other, and they are all saying "You seem to be getting younger during the Chinese New Year" or "Gong Xi Fa Cai".

Liu Qingshan and the others have harvested a lot of "Gong Xi Fa Cai" along the way, and then gave away a lot.

Especially those peddlers, when they saw Long Teng's large army, they were all smiles, and there were compliments in their words.

In the midst of the harmony, a piercing voice suddenly came:

"Oh, hey, isn't this Xiaowu, who even bragged that he was the big boss in the capital, but he turned out to be a bag carrier, hahaha, I'm dying of laughter!"

Liu Qingshan couldn't help but follow the prestige, and then saw a group of empty-handed people, others were all wrapped up, so this group of people looked particularly eye-catching.

The young man at the front with a strange face was none other than Xie Laosan who had met once, and Liu Qingshan didn't know what his nickname was.

I saw Xie Laosan wearing a mink fur coat flamboyantly, with a mink fur hat on his head, smiling and looking at Xiao Wu and the others, his eyes full of sarcasm.

Xiaowu and this guy have been at odds since they were young, and they pinched each other when they met, so they unloaded the big bag on their shoulders onto the ice and straightened their waists:

"Xie Lao San, don't stand and talk without back pain, we work with our own strength and eat with our ability, it's better than you idle son!"

Hearing these words, the vendors carrying bags all around shouted hello.

Among them was a middle-aged man, who was still on the line, pointing at Xie Lao San's nose: "Young man, you have such a bad idea, don't you look down on the working people?"

"If it was the previous two years, I would have forced you to go to the Public Security Bureau to discuss the theory, and now I have no time to talk to you, and I am too busy making money."

Xie Lao San was so angry that his fair and tender face became even paler. He didn't dare to provoke public anger, so he could only mutter in a low voice:

"They are all incapable poor ghosts, and they deserve to suffer."

A stocky young man beside him spat on the ice:

"Third brother, don't be as knowledgeable as those guys. They only carry bags if they have no skills. We want to do big business."

"Wang Qiang is right, we're not here to make a small fortune, so don't bother with them."

Another gentle guy also spoke, his name is An Chunfeng, among this group of people, he is like a think tank.

Only then did Xie Lao San nod his head, and then saw a girl wearing a down jacket beside him running towards Xiao Wu, and yelled: "Xiu girl, what are you doing?"

Chu Yunxiu didn't turn her head back: "I see someone I know, go over and say hello."

Seeing Chu Yunxiu galloping towards him, waving his gloved hands vigorously, his face almost turned into a smile, Liu Qingshan didn't realize that the corners of his mouth turned up slightly: Girl, you are a professional who betrays teammates, right? ?

Chu Yunxiu greeted Xiaowu and the others one by one, and then jumped up to Liu Qingshan with a smile: "Sanfeng, why didn't the fourth and fifth come along?"

"If you had come here a year ago, you would have seen them."

Liu Qingshan still has a very good impression of this girl who doesn't have the slightest scheming, how should I put it, let's pick the nice one: that is, she has a heart of innocence.

"Oh, it's late!"

Chu Yunxiu looked regretful: "Brother Xie is all to blame. Years ago, he had to drag me to stock up in the three provinces here."

Liu Qingshan understood a little bit, the Chu family is very influential here, so Xie Lao San wants to borrow the strength of the Chu family, maybe the possibility of cooperation is relatively high, so Chu Yunxiu appeared here.

He couldn't help but feel vigilant: he had already started stocking up years ago, and he started very quickly.

Thinking about Chu Yunxiu's attributes as a little spy, she asked, "Can you tell me what you have prepared?"

"It's not a secret. There's nothing to say. It's mainly liquor and non-staple food, and there are daily necessities and down jackets."

Chu Yunxiu was like pouring beans into a bamboo tube, Liu Qingshan also nodded secretly:

It seems that the other party also came prepared, not blindly buying goods, obviously someone has done an investigation here beforehand.

So while chatting, she walked towards Da Dao, the girl Chu Yunxiu just followed Liu Qingshan and the others and didn't go back there.

In Xie Laosan's group, someone called twice, but she didn't go back.

Of course Chu Yunxiu was happy to be by Liu Qingshan's side, and she kept asking questions about this and that, the fourth and fifth children, white ape and black bear...

When he passed the border station, Liu Qingshan heard the soldiers greeting him: "Happy Chinese New Year!"

Those who passed the checkpoint in front did not have this treatment.

Seeing that the soldiers were smiling and looking at him, their eyes looked extremely friendly, Liu Qingshan also smiled and waved:

"Happy New Year, Happy New Year, have you called home during the New Year?"

A spirited little soldier winked at him: "Say it, tell me what's on my mind!"

There was a burst of cheerful laughter, and Xiao Wu and the others also remembered the scene of singing this song together when they went to the military camp to condolences years ago.

After passing the checkpoint and entering the trading shed, a lot of people have already come from the opposite side.

It seems that they are all suffocated.

In fact, Maozi is more anxious than them. The merchants on Huaxia's side mainly want to make money, while Maozi's side is for making a living.
