Siheyuan: I just want to live

Li Jianlin and Li Dasheng came to the bicycle and stood there and spotted Chen Feng who was mowing the grass not far away.

Li Jianlin and Li Dasheng looked at the grass piled up into a small hill not far from Chen Feng. They both thought that it might be what Goudan and his friends cut and sold today.

So Li Jianlin walked towards Chen Feng, and as he walked he shouted, "Comrade! Why are you cutting the grass?"

When Chen Feng heard someone calling him, he stopped what he was doing, stood up, turned around, and saw two men in their forties walking towards him.

Chen Feng quickly threw the sickle on the ground, then took out a cigarette from his pocket, walked forward a few steps, and spoke as he walked.

"Oh! It's the boss's request! I'm a buyer at the city's scrap yard, and my boss asked me to bring some grass back. So I came here to cut some grass and report back!"

Of course Chen Feng would not tell them the truth, since he was a part-time purchaser anyway. If there was a problem, he could just blame his boss.

Chen Feng didn't know why the leader wanted to take advantage of the situation. If there were any questions about the leader's instructions, he should go to the leader. If you asked Chen Feng, he would also answer that he didn't know.

As he spoke, Chen Feng walked up to the two of them. He took out a cigarette from his cigarette case and handed it to them.

At the same time, he said, "Comrades, come and have a smoke. My name is Chen Feng. What's your name? Is there anything you need from me?"

Li Jianlin and Li Dasheng took the cigarettes, but did not light them immediately. Instead, they held them in their hands and looked at them.

Hmm, Peony! City people are indeed different. The village brigade secretary rolls his own cigarettes! Ordinary people in the city smoke such good cigarettes.

Li Jianlin put the cigarette behind his ear and said to Chen Feng, "Hello, Comrade Chen! My name is Li Jianlin, and this is Li Dasheng. We are here to ask, did you take money to collect the grass cut by a group of children this morning?"

Seeing him ask this, Chen Feng asked in confusion, "I did collect the grass from the children today. Is there a problem? Can't I collect it?"

Li Jianlin quickly said, "Comrade Chen, you misunderstood! Just now we found money in the children's pockets, and we thought they stole it from somewhere!"

"After asking, we found out that they were asking for money for the grass we cut for you. That's why we came here to ask!"

Li Dasheng interrupted and said, "Jianlin is right! My son didn't say anything at first, but I beat him up and he finally told me the truth!"

Chen Feng also didn't expect that the children would be beaten by their parents when they returned home because of a few cents!

After listening to their words, Chen Feng spoke up, "I gave the children money to buy their fodder. A dozen children cut nearly 3,000 kilograms of fodder this morning, and they are all lying around!"

While speaking, Chen Feng also pointed to the pile of grass next to him. In fact, even without Chen Feng pointing, Li Jianlin and the others saw it. There was such a huge pile of grass, and Chen Feng definitely couldn't cut so much by himself!

Li Jianlin said, "Comrade Chen, I believe you! We just came here to ask and confirm what the children said. Since the children did not lie, we will go back. Comrade Chen, you are busy!"

After saying that, Li Jianlin pulled Li Dasheng away.

Li Dasheng suddenly asked Chen Feng, "Comrade Chen, do you really collect grass for 10 kilograms per cent?"

Chen Feng nodded when he heard his words. He did not refute, but said to him, "Yes, one cent for ten kilograms of grass!"

Li Dasheng continued to ask, "Do you harvest all kinds of grass?"

Chen Feng continued to answer him, "As long as it's not poisonous, any grass will be accepted! Even leaves like willow leaves and poplar leaves will be accepted."

Li Dasheng nodded thoughtfully and followed Li Jianlin.

After seeing them leave, Chen Feng sat on the ground, lit a cigarette, and took a break.

Li Jianlin and Li Dasheng got the answer from Chen Feng, so they walked towards the village. After entering the village, the two separated.

Li Jianlin returned home and told his family about the conversation he had just had with Chen Feng.

Then he asked Old Man Li, "Dad, why do you think that purchasing manager Chen wants to collect green grass? Isn't that stuff everywhere?"

Old man Li took the pipe out of his mouth, knocked it on the ground twice and said, "You ask me, who should I ask! How can I know why he is collecting grass?"

When Li Jianlin heard his father say this, he said, "Hey! Dad, since he is collecting grass and the price is so high! Let's all go cut grass today and sell it to him!"

Old Man Li was also moved by his son's words, but he still shook his head and said to Li Jianlin

"Jianlin! Go talk to your brother Heiwa about this. He's the village chief. Discuss it with him and see if this can be done!"

Li Jianlin thought for a moment, nodded, and then said to Old Man Li, "Dad, I'm going to find Brother Heiwa!"

"Go!"

After getting his father's consent, Li Jianlin immediately left the yard and walked towards the home of the village chief Li Heiwa.

Li Jianlin quickly arrived at the village chief's house and entered the yard. He shouted to the main hall, "Brother Heiwa! Are you home?"

Li Heiwa, who was eating, heard someone calling him, so he put down the multigrain steamed bun in his hand, stood up and walked out of the house.

Seeing Li Jianlin standing in the middle of the yard, he immediately said with a smile, "Jianlin is here! Have you eaten? How about eating at my place?"

Li Heiwa is a rural man in his fifties, of the same generation as Li Jianlin. Li Jianlin's family has always had only one son, and Li Heiwa is the closest to Li Jianlin, so Li Heiwa is also very close to Li Jianlin.

Seeing that Li Heiwa invited him to dinner, Li Jianlin immediately waved his hand and said, "Brother Heiwa, I've already eaten! I came here today to discuss something with you!"

When Li Heiwa heard that Li Jianlin wanted to talk to him about something, he said generously, "Jianlin! Just tell me what's going on! There's nothing to discuss!"

Seeing him say this, Li Jianlin stopped being polite and said, "Brother Heiwa, this is what happened. Today, when Goudan was playing with other kids..."

Li Jianlin told Li Heiwa what happened today and shared his thoughts with him.

Finally, he asked, "Brother Heiwa, what do you think?"

Li Heiwa did not return to Li Jianlin immediately, but frowned and asked, "What did my uncle say?"

Li Jianlin knew that Li Heiwa was asking Old Man Li what he thought, and Li Jianlin did not hide it. He said to Li Heiwa, "My father said, let me ask for your opinion!"

Li Heiwa still frowned and said, "This is not easy to handle! What if Chen Feng is not a buyer? You haven't seen his work permit."

When Li Jianlin heard him say that, he said casually, "We can't read! We can't recognize our work ID cards even if we are given them! Otherwise, Brother Heiwa, go check it out! He should still be cutting grass outside the village!"

Li Heiwa thought for a moment and said to Li Jianlin, "That's fine! Take me to see it!"

Then Li Heiwa followed Li Jianlin to where Chen Feng was.

The reason why Li Heiwa gave in was that the price offered by Chen Feng was too high!

One cent for ten pounds of grass, and a family of young and old can cut several thousand pounds a day, which means dozens of dollars.

He wanted to go over and ask Chen Feng how much grass he needed. If it was less, it would be fine, but if it was more, he would need more.

Then he mobilized the whole village to cut grass together. They couldn’t miss this good opportunity!

Ten minutes later, Li Jianlin and the other man arrived at the place where Chen Feng parked his bicycle.

Chen Feng stopped mowing the grass. He had been bending over to mow the grass for the whole morning and his waist was sore from exhaustion. He was sitting on the haystack, pounding his waist gently!

Even in his previous life, Chen Feng had never used a sickle to cut things like this. In his previous life, when Chen Feng grew up, it was the busy farming season.

The crops have already been harvested with a harvester, and he has never had the chance to use a sickle to cut wheat, but now he is asked to use a sickle to cut grass.

At this time, Li Jianlin saw Chen Feng and immediately shouted loudly, "Comrade Chen, have you cut enough grass?"

When Chen Feng saw Li Jianlin leading a man in his fifties towards him, he immediately stood up from the haystack and walked towards him.

As he walked, he said, "I've cut enough, it's still early! I'm just taking a break there. I've been cutting for the whole morning and my waist is so tired that I can't even stand up straight!"

After saying that, Chen Feng also walked in front of the two of them.

Chen Feng took out a cigarette from his pocket, took it out and handed it to the two of them.

Li Jianlin and the man took the cigarettes handed over by Chen Feng. Li Jianlin said with a smile, "You city people have never done farm work, so you feel so tired!"

Then he introduced Chen Feng, "Comrade Chen, this is our village chief Li Heiwa!"

Chen Feng quickly extended his right hand to Li Heiwa and said, "So you are the village chief, uncle! My name is Chen Feng, and I am a buyer at the scrap yard in the city. Comrade Village Chief, nice to meet you! Nice to meet you!"

Li Heiwa saw Chen Feng extending his hand, so he also extended his right hand and shook hands with Chen Feng, saying with a smile on his face, "Comrade Chen, you're welcome!"

When the two men finished their fight, Li Heiwa said, "Comrade Chen, can I see your work ID?"

Chen Feng was slightly stunned when he heard him ask this. Then he reacted and immediately said, "No problem! Comrade Village Chief!"

Then, Chen Feng reached into his pocket, took out the buyer’s work permit from the space, and handed it to Li Heiwa.

Li Heiwa took a look at Chen Feng's work ID. The photo on it showed that it was Chen Feng himself, and the steel stamp and bright red seal did not look fake.

Then he returned the work permit to Chen Feng and asked casually, "Comrade Chen Feng, how much grass do you need to cut?"

Chen Feng also said casually, "I don't know how many I want. I always want them. Anyway, they are a lot!"

Li Heiwa asked again, "Comrade Chen Feng, we will help you cut the grass, will you collect it?"

Chen Feng was worried that he was too slow to mow the grass by himself, so he said without hesitation, "Of course I will do it!"

When Li Heiwa heard that Chen Feng would charge, he hesitated and said, "Is it still one cent for ten kilograms? There are many people in our village and we can cut a lot of grass! You..."

Li Heiwa didn't say anything else, but Chen Feng understood. So he said to him, "Wait a minute!"

Then Chen Feng ran to the place where he had just sat and reached his hand into the haystack.

Using the haystack and his body as cover, Chen Feng took out his schoolbag from the space. In the schoolbag, Chen Feng put two thousand yuan and a pistol.

Then Chen Feng picked up his schoolbag and ran to Li Heiwa. He opened the schoolbag and said to Li Heiwa, "Comrade village head, look!"

Li Jianlin and Li Heiwa looked into Chen Feng's schoolbag at the same time, and their pupils shrank suddenly. They not only saw the money, but also the gun that Chen Feng had put inside.

Seeing their expressions, Chen Feng closed his bag again and said, "I originally wanted to cut the grass myself, but since the village chief has an idea, I will buy grass from your village. It's still 1 cent for 10 kilograms. How about that?"

Li Heiwa nodded and said, "Okay! I'll go back and tell someone to cut the grass, and then sell it to you."

After saying that, Li Heiwa took Li Jianlin away.
