Siheyuan: I just want to live

The next day, Chen Feng arrived outside Dalizhuang Village at around eight o'clock. Today, Chen Feng was fully armed.

When he was on the road, he carried the submachine gun on his back and put several magazines into his schoolbag. Although there was only one magazine of bullets now, it could still scare people who didn't understand.

When we arrived at Dalizhuang, the village chief Li Heiwa and the accountant were already waiting at the same place where we had eaten yesterday.

The accountant's desk was set up and the scales were brought out and placed in their place from yesterday.

There was a row of haystacks nearby, and there was a child watching each haystack.

As soon as Chen Feng dared to get off his bicycle, Li Heiwa and the accountant came to meet him. Then, when they saw the submachine gun on Chen Feng's back, their pupils shrank suddenly.

Li Youquan suddenly stopped in his tracks, but Li Heiwa still walked up to Chen Feng and asked cautiously.

"Purchasing Chen, why did you bring this thing here today?"

Chen Feng parked his bicycle, walked to Li Heiwa, and whispered, "Comrade Village Chief, don't I have a lot of money today? Our leader asked me to bring this for self-defense!"

Then Chen Feng patted his schoolbag and said, "There are still a few full magazines in here!"

Li Heiwa took a look at Chen Feng's schoolbag. When Chen Feng took the photo just now, he did hear the sound of metal colliding. That should be the sound of magazines colliding!

Li Heiwa wondered how much money Chen Feng could bring! He actually had to carry so much ammunition to protect himself.

He was also a little curious, so he asked quietly, "Purchasing Manager Chen, how much money did you bring today?"

He was probably afraid that Chen Feng might misunderstand, so he quickly said, "Chen, don't misunderstand! Some villagers have invited their relatives to help today, and I'm afraid you're not well prepared and don't bring enough money."

Chen Feng listened to Li Heiwa's explanation, but he didn't care about it. Instead, he said in a low voice, "Comrade Village Chief, don't worry. The money I brought today is enough! I brought this amount of money!"

When Chen Feng was counting the money, he waved his open hand towards Li Heiwa.

When Li Heiwa saw Chen Feng's slap and thought about the specific amount of money, he was a little distracted. Li Heiwa didn't expect Chen Feng to bring so much money.

However, Li Heiwa came to his senses instantly. He thought that Chen Feng would use the money to buy grass in his own village.

His family also cut grass and sold it to Chen Feng, and he would get a share of the money in the end, which made him even more excited.

So he couldn't contain his excitement, and his facial expressions were out of control. He grinned and said, "Purchaser Chen, do you think we can start weighing?"

Chen Feng nodded and said, "Okay! Let's get started now!"

Seeing that Chen Feng agreed, Li Heiwa shouted to the children standing next to the haystack, "You little bastards! Hurry up and call your parents back! Purchasing Manager Chen is here, we can start weighing!"

After Li Heiwa finished shouting, the children immediately ran in all directions to inform their parents.

Chen Feng took out a cigarette from his pocket and gave one to Li Heiwa and the accountant. The three of them smoked and waited for the villagers to come.

Half an hour later, villagers came from all directions carrying green grass to the open space where Chen Feng and his team were.

Seeing this, Chen Feng also stood beside the scale. Then the villagers put their own grass on the scale, and after weighing it, they helped to throw the grass behind Chen Feng.

Just like yesterday, when he had collected ten yuan, Chen Feng took out a bill from his schoolbag and handed it to the accountant. The accountant made a note and put the money into his briefcase.

Chen Feng observed today that there were many new faces among the villagers who were not there yesterday.

For example, Li Jianlin's family has 10 male members here today, and the youngest one looks to be about 13 or 14 years old, which is considered strong labor in the countryside today.

When Chen Feng saw this scene, he knew without hesitation that the villagers must have asked their relatives to come and help last night.

But Chen Feng didn't care about that, he only had grass, and if someone brought grass to him, he would pay them, no matter who cut the grass.

Soon it was noon.

Li Heiwa looked at the people who were still delivering green grass, then looked up at the sun in the sky, and then walked to Chen Feng.

He said to Chen Feng, "Purchaser Chen, it's already noon! Let's stop for a while and have something to eat at my house. We can continue in the afternoon. What do you think?"

Chen Feng looked at the villagers who were still queuing and said hesitantly, "Comrade Village Chief, the villagers are still queuing!"

Li Heiwa waved his hand and said nonchalantly, "Purchaser Chen, it's okay! Let them wait for a while! It's a good opportunity for them to have a meal."

Chen Feng looked at the pile of grass behind him that looked like a small mountain, and thought that after everyone left, he would put the grass into the space. When someone asked about it in the afternoon, he would say that it had been taken away.

Then Chen Feng said, "Comrade Village Chief, I'm not going! I brought my own steamed buns, and I'll just eat the steamed buns."

Li Heiwa saw Chen Feng looking at the haystack. He thought that Chen Feng was afraid that the freshly harvested grass would be taken away by someone while he was eating, so he refused to go.

So he shouted to the team, "Jianlin, Dasheng, go to the warehouse and find some things, and build a shed here!"

"Mule, Da Hu and Lao Niu, go to my house and catch a chicken from my yard."

"Then find a pot, prepare some dishes, and bring in tables and chairs. Let's cook a meal for Purchaser Chen today. How can we let Purchaser Chen just eat steamed buns?"

After hearing what Li Heiwa said, several people came out of the team and ran towards the village.

Chen Feng looked at Li Heiwa's arrangement and wanted to refuse, but before he could say anything, he heard Li Heiwa say to Chen Feng

"Purchaser Chen, you came to our village today to purchase things. We even let you eat your own steamed buns. If you tell others, other villages will laugh at us."

After hearing what he said, Chen Feng could no longer refuse. He could only smile and say to Li Heiwa, "Comrade Village Chief, you are too polite! I will be disrespectful if I refuse."

Li Heiwa waved his hands and said boldly, "Well, that's nothing! Since Mr. Chen is visiting our village, we must do our best to be a good host and entertain you well!"

Chen Feng smiled and said, "Comrade Village Chief, I'll weigh it first. Call me when the meal is ready."

Li Heiwa also smiled and said, "Okay, Purchaser Chen, you go ahead and do your work!"

After saying that, Li Heiwa walked away, while Chen Feng continued to weigh and pay the villagers.

Soon, a shed was built not far away, and a stove was set up. The villager named Lao Niu began to cook in the open air.

When the meal was ready, Li Heiwa came over to call Chen Feng to eat, and the villagers dispersed. They did not go home to eat, but continued to cut grass.

The villagers asked a woman to go home and prepare a meal, and then bring it to the grass-cutting site, and then continue cutting grass after eating.

The old cow that cooked also left after finishing the meal, as he also had to hurry up and cut grass.

After washing his hands, Chen Feng followed Li Heiwa to the bottom of the shed.

There were four dishes, one soup, one pot and two boxes of steamed buns on the table. There was only one meat dish, fried chicken, and the rest were some seasonal vegetables.

However, these dishes are enough for Chen Feng, Li Heiwa and the accountant.

The three of them came under the shed and after setting up the table, Li Heiwa picked up the wine on the table and prepared to fill Chen Feng's glass.

Chen Feng thought about his alcohol tolerance and immediately stopped him, then said, "Comrade Village Chief, we have something else to do in the afternoon, so let's not drink!"

Li Heiwa saw Chen Feng stopping him and thought that Chen Feng had money on him and didn't dare to drink. So he laughed and said, "Purchasing Chen is right. We have something else to do in the afternoon, so we won't drink this wine!"

Li Heiwa put down the wine bottle and said to Chen Feng with a smile, "Purchaser Chen, come, let's eat! Let's try the dishes made by Lao Niu!"

"Purchaser Chen, let me tell you, Lao Niu is a famous chef in our village! He is always the chef for all the weddings and funerals in the village!"

As Li Heiwa spoke, he picked up the chopsticks, picked up a chicken leg and put it in Chen Feng's bowl.

Chen Feng picked up the chicken leg and took a bite. It tasted really good. He turned to Li Heiwa and said, "Comrade village chief, you know what, your village chief's comrade Lao Niu is really good at cooking!"

Seeing that Chen Feng was enjoying his meal, Li Heiwa quickly said with a smile, "Purchaser Chen, since it's delicious, you should eat more!"

Then he put another chicken leg into Chen Feng's bowl. Seeing this, Chen Feng quickly said

"Comrade Village Chief, don't just pick the food for you! Eat it yourself! I can't eat all the food on the table by myself!"

When Li Heiwa heard what Chen Feng said, he quickly said, "Of course! Purchase Chen, we are eating too!"

He turned to the accountant and said, "Youquan, come on, let's eat!"

However, Li Heiwa and Li Youquan tacitly picked out chicken feet from the fried chicken and started to eat them.

During the meal, Li Heiwa kept picking up chicken for Chen Feng. He and the accountant only ate some chicken heads, chicken feet, and some vegetables.

Chen Feng basically ate the last chicken himself.

When Chen Feng really couldn't eat any more, he saw Li Heiwa still picking up chicken for him, so he quickly said, "Comrade Village Chief, I'm full and I really can't eat any more!"

Li Heiwa then stopped picking up food with his chopsticks. After the accountant heard that Chen Feng was full, he left the table and poured three glasses of water, placing one in front of Chen Feng.

At this time, Li Heiwa said, "Purchaser Chen, you have finished shopping today, will you come tomorrow?"

When Chen Feng heard Li Heiwa's question, he shook his head and said, "I won't come tomorrow!"

Chen Feng estimated that by dark today, he would have spent almost all of his money, so he said he would not come tomorrow.

Li Heiwa and the accountant felt disappointed when they heard Chen Feng said he would not come tomorrow. How come this good opportunity to make money only lasts for one or two days?

Li Heiwa asked again, "Purchaser Chen, do you know when you will purchase green grass next time?"

Chen Feng estimated in his mind the reproduction rate of rabbits and the rate at which they consumed grass.

Then he casually said, "I will go out to buy around the first Saturday of next month."

Li Heiwa was delighted when Chen Feng told him the specific time, and then he asked tentatively, "Purchaser Chen, do you think you can still purchase in our village next month?"

Chen Feng said without thinking, "Sure!"

When Li Heiwa heard Chen Feng's agreement, a smile immediately spread across his face. He then raised the cup of water in front of him and said:

"Youquan, come! Let's use tea instead of wine to toast Chen Caigou. Thank you for coming to our village to purchase next month!"

The accountant also quickly picked up the water cup. Seeing that both of them had picked up their cups, Chen Feng also picked up the water cup in front of him and said, "Comrade Village Chief, you are too polite! Let's drink it!"

Li Heiwa and the accountant said in unison, "Go for it!"

Then the three of them drank a glass of water with the spirit of a farewell drink.
