Iron Bull Legend

"Auntie doesn't care how much you earn, as long as you are happy, as long as you live well, marry Xiaocao in the future, have a few babies, and I will take care of them for you at home. I have also thought it through. I have not been in the company during this period, and the development there is also very good. At the same time, I also feel that what you said to me is indeed reasonable. Let them do it. There is always something to be done."

"Haha, aunt, you are right to think so. In the future, aunt, Xiaocao and I will take a big plane and ride a big yacht to travel around the world and take you to eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks, okay?" Tie Niu was looking forward to the future, thinking about traveling around the world with Xiaocao and his aunt.

"Well, our little calf has grown up. If my sister knew this, she would be very pleased..."

"Aunt, dinner is ready. I see everyone is starting to move the chairs." Tie Niu hurriedly stopped Aunt from thinking about her mother and started to move the world. There was nothing he could do about it.

"Don't transfer them to other places. You haven't told me how much money you'll give them."

"There are eight major military regions in the country. All these people are here today. There are millions of troops. Every military training is spending money to pave the way. So, each military region will be given 500 million yuan per year. I have sufficient funds now, so I will give them five years first to save those old men from coming to me all the time."

"Auntie tells you, some things can be done all at once, but some things are better done slowly and over a long period of time. It's not that you won't give them the money. In this way, you can give them money once a year and say that you currently have other things to do with your funds. But you give them a definite signal that you will definitely help them. In this way, you are also ensuring long-term relations with them. This is favor. If you feed them all at once, some people will think it is their due and may not remember your kindness." Chu Miaomiao taught earnestly.

"I understand. My aunt is wise and intelligent. I just said that my aunt is smart, but you scolded her." Tie Niu flattered his aunt again and said words to make her happy. This was the result of his serious consideration of what his aunt said.

This year it is Commander Zhang, but tomorrow it might be someone who is not on good terms with me. If that happens, I won't be able to establish a good relationship with the other party. Just like this time when I asked Commander Liang Yunfei for help, he would put down everything he was doing and come over.

If the other party is really as my aunt analyzed and as I thought, it would be better to use funds to restrain the other party. Then, even if the other party is not good to me and is not a like-minded comrade, he will not offend me for the sake of money. At the critical moment, I can also guarantee something. After all, my aunt is far-sighted.

"You just know how to play tricks on your aunt. Trust your aunt, and you won't be wrong."

"I didn't say I didn't believe my aunt. I also considered that what my aunt said did make sense. Also, doing this would restrain the other party from being on good terms with me. Even if we can't be on good terms, the other party would give in to me a little for the sake of money, and even ask for help in some aspects.

"You're right to think so. That is to say, people will change, but money will never change. That is, the money is yours, and you can spend it however you want. Others will act according to your wishes." Chu Miaomiao knew that Tie Niu understood what she said, so she felt relieved.

"Okay, I understand. I'll do as my aunt says. Aren't you wise? Aunt..." Tie Niu was just thinking about continuing to flatter her when his aunt slapped him on the shoulder.

While the two were chatting about this matter, the tables, chairs and benches outside had been arranged, ready for dinner. The small mountain village had received the news before they arrived, and under Zhao Jianjun's arrangement, two big fat pigs, chickens, and prey from the mountains were slaughtered.

All the villagers felt a sense of pride about the return of Tie Niu's family and the arrival of so many generals from the army, because Tie Niu was a big man who came out of the small mountain village, and they knew that he was already the mayor, a high-ranking official who was paid by the emperor.

Therefore, the villagers proudly brag about it to everyone around them. Of course, this is also the villagers' true emotional expression. It is not bragging, but a little bit more of a show-off.

"Tie Niu, your aunt will come out for dinner soon." Li Xiaocao walked in with a happy look on her face, because many neighbors already knew that this slightly cold girl was Tie Niu's girlfriend and the future daughter-in-law of their Tie family, so everyone wanted to chat with her.

Li Xiaocao is a girl who is cold on the outside but warm on the inside. Don't look at her as a little cold on the outside, but that has always been her image. Once she knows that you are really good to her, she will be wholehearted to you. This time, when she learned that the villagers slaughtered the big fat pigs for the New Year at once, she was so moved that she directly expressed her intention to build a pig farm here for the villagers.

The villagers made a lot of money by exchanging two big fat pigs for a pig farm. Even if each person gets a big fat pig during the Chinese New Year this year, they still can't eat enough. This is just one way of saying it. In fact, the villagers don't really think so much, because they know who is easy to talk to and who truly respects them.

White meat blood sausage, sauerkraut stew, braised pork ribs with potatoes, stir-fried tripe with garlic, braised liver tips, stir-fried lung slices, chicken stewed with mushrooms, braised roe deer meat, deep-fried flying dragon, stir-fried fern with meat, motherwort with dipping sauce, dried cucumbers, radish, and the tempting, browned and browned dried tofu rolls with green onions, every dish will make you drool.

The aroma is different from the meat that people in the city eat. These are all authentic farm pigs, wild vegetables, game from the mountains, and side dishes from the greenhouses in the mountains. They are all authentic farm dishes that even the richest city tycoons cannot eat.

Commander Zhang, Old Master Xu, Commander Zhao, Commander Zhou, Commander Huang, Commander Liang Yunfei, Commander Zhang Ligong, Old Huazi, Mr. Guo, and Kulisha and others were all sitting around the table. Li Xiaocao, Aunt Jin, An Fei'er, and Charles Long were also sitting around the big table.

With the sound of the dinner being served, everyone began to stretch out their chopsticks. The elders in the village who were able to sit at the table were the ones who accompanied the guests. Although they had never lacked food and clothing in recent years, today's meal still made them swallow their saliva.

Tie Niu never saw the second grandfather from beginning to end. He only saw several elderly people from wealthy families in the village. Although he didn't say it, he was full of doubts in his heart. He didn't know why the second grandfather didn't show up, and there was no sign of him in the entire small mountain village.

"Tie Niu, there is no way you can say anything. You know the temperament of us mountain people. Let's eat well and make peace." Zhao Jianhua was the first to stand up and speak on behalf of the whole village to express the villagers' warm welcome.

"Uncle Zhao, look at what you are saying. We are all family. Grandpa Zhang and the grandfather and uncle he brought with him are also our relatives. We are one family, so let's not be quarrelsome. I thank the villagers for their warm hospitality and their enthusiastic help over the years. To be honest, I am grateful from the bottom of my heart that you have set aside some food rations to take care of our family under such poor circumstances. I toast to you all." Tie Niu raised his glass and gestured to everyone to express his feeling of returning home in glory.

"Tie Niu, everyone knows how much you can drink, just raise your glass to show your appreciation. If you hadn't silently supported our small mountain village all these years, we really don't know how long we would have been poor. We were afraid of poverty before, but now, we all live a good life. Eating some coarse grains can improve our lives. Even the kids don't want to eat the corn stubble and cornmeal that make their throats sore," Zhao Jianhua said with a sob. This was his satisfaction with his current life, and even more so, his gratitude to Tie Niu.

"Uncle Zhao, look at what you said. I am sincerely toasting to you all. How can I just take a sip? That would be insincere. I'll drink it first, everyone else please feel free to drink as you please." Tie Niu was about to drink the wine in the glass when he was stopped by Li Xiaocao, who knew that Tie Niu only drank one glass at a time.

"Uncle Zhao, fellow villagers, you all know how much Tieniu can drink, so let me toast to you all on Tieniu's behalf. Tieniu will take a small sip, and I'll drink it all to toast to you all." Li Xiaocao directly took over Tieniu's wine glass, raised it to the people around him, raised his head and drank it directly. However, it was a bad idea.

Li Xiaocao had never imagined that the liquor in the glass was pure sorghum liquor made by the villagers themselves, with an alcohol content of more than 60 degrees. The spicy taste stunned Li Xiaocao. This... was really tasty, not inferior to the vodka he had drunk before.

"Cough... cough cough cough" Li Xiaocao started coughing violently, and his little face was choked by the strong smell of alcohol. He had never expected that the white wine from the small mountain village was not much worse than vodka.

"Hurry up and eat a bite of meat to calm down the alcohol." Tie Niu picked up a piece of meat and handed it to Li Xiaocao's mouth, motioning her to take a bite quickly. Tie Niu knew the alcohol content of Xiaoshan Village's liquor, but the silly girl Li Xiaocao really didn't know. Although, he could drink a little, he was ambushed.

"Tie Niu's wife is from our village. You can tell by how hearty she is when drinking." Aunt Zhang laughed to ease the awkward situation. Tie Niu also signaled others to drink. For a moment, the table was filled with the sound of clinking glasses, and it became lively.

“Boss Tie, why is this wine so strong?” Li Xiaocao stared into Tie Niu’s eyes with a bitter look on her face.

"The temperature here is really too cold. It's common for the temperature to drop below 30 degrees Celsius in winter. The coldest time is over 40 degrees Celsius. In such weather, we can only use this pure sorghum wine to keep warm. Especially when going up the mountain to hunt or chop some firewood in winter, we have to bring a small wine bag with us. Otherwise, we are really afraid of freezing to death." Tie Niu explained with a smile. Although he also took a small sip, his face turned red.

"Ah, no wonder. Then everyone can enjoy it? This must be over 60 degrees."

"It wasn't possible in our north before. There was a shortage of food, especially meat. We were lucky if we could have a few treats a year, especially in winter. Men are the mainstay of the family, and the delicious food at home is given to the mainstay. Otherwise, we really wouldn't have the strength. So, we would bring back more prey from the mountains. In addition, everyone has had more food in their stomachs over the years, so the wine is a little stronger. Didn't we dare to drink like this before?" Tie Niu smiled, because everyone's life has become better.

Tie Niu recalled the mountain-climbing excursion he had participated in before. It was really cold at that time and he was really scared.
