Chapter 99 A father and son without trust, and a dog who taught himself to do backflips
Lin Heng did not reply. He stood beside the tractor, walked in and watched people loading Coriolus versicolor, watched the scale, and recorded it himself.
"Oh, don't worry, I won't cheat on this." Liu Qicheng saw Lin Heng like this and waved his hand.
"It's better to watch." Lin Heng didn't believe him. The most untrustworthy thing in the world is the credibility of merchants.
Who knows if he will put something else in when you turn around.
"Then do whatever you want." Liu Qicheng was unhappy, thinking that it was useless for you to look at Coriolus versicolor. Even if I didn't use tricks, you couldn't make money.
When you bought these Coriolus versicolor, you were destined to lose money. He laughed in his heart, waiting to see Lin Heng come to buy Coriolus versicolor at a loss in the future, to watch his good show.
It was uncomfortable to lose money, but he was happy when a fool took over.
After two hours of weighing, there were a total of 1,020 kilograms of Coriolus versicolor here. Because the contract had been written yesterday, Lin Heng took a full 1,000 kilograms.
The driver shook the rotor vigorously for a few times, and with a roar and billowing smoke, the tractor started.
"Let's go, get in the car."
The driver sat in the driver's seat, and Lin Heng and Liu Qicheng sat and stood on both sides.
With the roar of the engine, the three of them headed towards Hongfeng Village.
Although the tractor was slow, it was much faster than walking. It took less than 20 minutes to reach the road outside the Lin family.
In the house, Lin's father and mother had not gone up the hill to farm today because Lin Heng did not come back from the city yesterday, and they were thinking about how to find him back.
In the yard, Lin's father held a piece of iron pear wood as thick as a rolling pin with sharp protrusions on it. While waving it in the air, he looked at Lin's mother: "Hongmei, what do you think of this stick? Can it break that kid's leg?"
"It should be possible." Lin's mother nodded.
"Okay, if he doesn't come back today, I'll go find him. If I find him, I'll break his legs on the spot with this stick." Father Lin nodded and said seriously.
Xiulan was speechless and explained, "Dad, Lin Heng should not have gone with his friends. They should have sold the turtles when they came back yesterday."
"Who knows? I heard that the people who came this time had motorcycles, which would be very attractive to that kid." Father Lin didn't believe in Lin Heng's determination. After all, he had many criminal records before.
Maybe it just took a little longer to come back this time. Compared with this rural area full of loess, the prosperous and beautiful urban area is too much.
After his last contact, he also understood why young people wanted to run to the city. It was not the same world at all.
"Listen, there was a rumble outside. Could it be that Lin Heng came back?" At this time, Mother Lin suddenly pointed outside.
Everyone was quiet and heard a rumble.
"It's true. Let's go out and take a look." Father Lin was a little happy and walked out first.
As soon as they walked out of the gate, they saw Lin Heng carrying a big bag and coming to the door. A tractor was parked on the road not far away.
"Dad, you're fine in the house. Hurry up and help move the things." Lin Heng said hurriedly.
After that, he saw the stick in Lin's father's hand and was a little confused: "You didn't think I wouldn't come back, did you?"
"Haha. No." Lin's father threw the stick into the corner.
Lin Heng: "... Dad, you disappoint me so much. Don't we have even this little trust between father and son?"
Father Lin snorted coldly, and pointed at the pocket on his shoulder and asked: "What did you get?"
Lin Heng said lightly: "Mulberry fungus, what else can it be? I bought a thousand kilograms at one time."
Father Lin's face suddenly darkened: "Don't you know that the price of this thing has dropped to 20 cents recently?"
Lin Heng nodded: "I know, so I want to buy it, 55 cents a kilogram, big profit!"
Father Lin's face suddenly turned from black to red, and he turned around to pick up the stick in anger, raised it and was about to hit: "Retreat immediately, otherwise I will teach you a lesson today."
Lin Heng spread his hands: "There is no way. The contract has been signed, in black and white. If you breach the contract, you have to pay 5,000 yuan."
Father Lin was stunned, looked at Lin Heng deeply, shook his head, threw down the stick and left.
"You have the ability and money, you can do whatever you want, I can't control it."
With a bang, the door of the old house closed.
Mother Lin looked at Lin Heng and sighed, "Do you really think money is easy to make? You've been lucky recently. Do you think you've always been lucky?"
After saying that, she also shook her head and left, not to mention how worried she was.
I thought it was unreliable at the beginning. Now the price has fallen below, and he is still buying back. How can he make money like this?
Lin Heng spread his hands and was too lazy to explain. He understood his parents' feelings, but he would not follow their wishes.
Although they worked hard, their knowledge and experience were far behind the world. This was caused by their poor life, and it was not their fault.
Xiu Lan watched from the side, and when Lin Heng looked over, she said, "Put the things in the room on the left side of the main hall. It's drier there."
"Okay." Lin Heng nodded. He knew that Xiu Lan would not question him in public, and he was not surprised by her performance.
"Daddy, hold me!" Xiaoxia stretched out her little hand, wanting Lin Heng to hold her.
"Wait a minute, baby." Lin Heng freed up a hand and touched her face.
Then he looked back at Liu Qicheng and the tractor driver: "Come with me."
Liu Qicheng glanced at Xiulan and thought that Lin Hengming was really nice to have such a beautiful wife. It's a pity that I will have to endure hardships soon.
Sighing secretly, he followed Lin Heng into the courtyard.
Lin Heng put the things in the bedroom on the left side of the main room and said, "Just move it in and put it in this room."
He put the things down, found some wooden boards and tree stumps, and placed the mulberry trees on mats. The ground was not hardened, so it would be easy to get damp if placed close to the ground.
After finishing it, he continued to help move the mulberry trees.
People in the village had already been attracted, standing on the road from a distance and watching, talking in low voices.
"It's a thousand pounds. Even if the price is reduced, it still costs a lot of money. Lin Heng is really courageous."
"If you have money, you can do whatever you want, but we can't compare."
"Hehe, it would be interesting to lose everything."
"Hmph, this Chen Xiulan is really useless. If I were her, Lin Heng wouldn't even be able to get in today. His legs would be lame."
…
There were many people who ridiculed, ridiculed, and gloated. They all thought Lin Heng was crazy.
People could understand him before accepting mulberry leaves, but now he still accepts them after the price has plummeted. Everyone thinks he is crazy and crazy about money.
Tian Dongfu, secretary of the village party committee, watched from a distance in front of his home. When he heard that Lin Heng had bought a thousand kilograms of Phellinus mulberry, he couldn't help but shook his head: "This guy is still too young. Making money is not that easy. I hope he can make a difference and grow." Wisdom."
Her daughter Tian Yan was playing chess and said, "It's normal. If you want to make a lot of money, you'll know it when you suffer a loss. Market changes are not something that ordinary people can predict accurately."
There are many people who are worried about Lin Heng. Lin Yue and Liu Juan all came back directly from the fields.
"Brother, you are a bit reckless." Lin Yue sighed and walked over to help move.
Now that the deal is done, all he can do is help move the mulberry trees.
He regretted a little. He would have gone to the city with his brother if he had known earlier. Maybe after persuading him, this incident would not have happened.
"It's okay, brother, I'm sensible." Lin Heng said with a smile.
"I hope so." Lin Yue shook his head.
Liu Juan went to the old house to comfort Father Lin and Mother Lin, and was very unfavorable about Lin Heng doing these things.
In half an hour, Sanghuang had finished moving. Liu Qicheng looked at Lin Heng and said, "Is it time to pay for the goods now?"
Qian Linheng had already prepared it and took out the money, pen and paper: "Count the money and give me a receipt."
Liu Qicheng took the money and looked at it, and carefully studied the authenticity. After making sure it was OK, he picked up a pen and paper and wrote the receipt.
"Okay, I wish you a fortune." Liu Qicheng handed the receipt to Lin Heng, and when he saw it, he couldn't wait to turn around and leave.
Lin Heng sent him out. When he saw villagers outside, he smiled and said, "Please help me spread the word. I also collect Phellinus mulberry here. It costs two cents a pound in town, but three cents here."
"Is it true?" someone asked curiously.
"That's right, you've already collected so much, and you still want to collect more?" No one understood what was going on with Lin Heng.
Lin Heng smiled slightly: "Receive it, it's the same as before, the payment is done on the spot, so you don't have to worry about the debt."
After saying that, he turned around and entered the house.
"It seems that he is determined to collect Phellinus mulberry." Someone said with emotion.
"Whatever, his price is good, so I will come to him to sell it. It's still close."
"Yeah, it's none of my business whether he makes a loss or a profit. If he can sell it for a dime more, it's just a dime."
…
"Drink some water." Seeing Lin Heng come in, Xiulan poured him a glass of water.
"I'm going to take a shower first. My whole body is covered in sweat." Lin Heng said with a smile, feeling that Xiulan was a little angry.
After taking a cold bath, Lin Heng walked into the house. Xiulan was still sitting in the main room with her daughter in her arms.
Lin Heng handed the remaining 280 yuan to Xiulan: "Here, there is still so much left."
Xiulan didn't answer, looked at her daughter's face, and said slowly: "Anyway, you won't even discuss it with me. Just take care of the money yourself."
She didn't blame Lin Heng for buying so much Phellinus mulberry at one time, but he didn't tell her at all in advance, causing her to worry for a long time.
Lin Heng moved the bench over and sat in front of his wife, holding her hand to prevent her from breaking away: "I just heard about the price reduction of mulberry and Huang, and I thought this was a good opportunity.
If I hadn't bought it earlier, Liu Qicheng would have brought Phellinus mulberry to the city and wouldn't have been able to buy it, so I didn't have time to tell you. "
Xiulan looked at him: "Really?"
"You can touch my heart, I'm really not telling lies." Lin Heng explained while pressing Xiulan's hand to her chest.
"Take it away. It's full of water. I didn't even wipe it clean after taking a shower." Xiulan glared at him and took away her hand in disgust.
Handing the towel on the back of the chair to Lin Heng, Xiulan asked again: "Are you so sure that this Phellinus mulberry will make money? One thousand kilograms is not enough, so you have to take more?"
Lin Heng was too lazy to wipe it, so he had two pieces of water. His daughter Xiaoxia took a towel and wiped it for him diligently.
"Of course, I believe that my judgment will not be wrong. If it is wrong, I will not touch the purchase of medicinal materials in the future." Lin Heng nodded and affirmed.
Xiulan looked at Lin Heng's serious expression and softened her expression: "This is what you said, I didn't force you."
"I will never go back on what I said." Lin Heng nodded seriously.
If Sang Huang's information is wrong, it means that the information he received from his rebirth is not completely reliable, and then he will no longer engage in this kind of business that requires accurate information.
"You drink some water, and I'll cook for you." Xiulan took the money and left her daughter in his care.
"Dad, hug."
Xiaoxia wanted to crawl into Lin Heng's arms.
"Wait a minute, I'm putting on my clothes." Lin Heng quickly put on his clothes before holding his daughter in his arms.
It was a hot day and he didn't want to hold her. His daughter insisted on getting into his arms, acting like a baby and kissing her, and he couldn't refuse her.
Fortunately, after hugging her for a while, Xiaoxia also felt hot and went down. She ran over to see the little wild cat in the cage.
It seems that he is used to it, and now the little wild cat doesn't roar much anymore, but just looks at Xiaoxia warily.
"Xiongba, come here!"
Lin Heng called out.
"Woof woof~"
Xiongba, who was lying in the yard, immediately got up, ran over with his tongue sticking out, and rubbed his big head on Lin Heng's legs.
Lin Heng stroked Xiongba's dog's head and played with it for a while, looking at the teeth and ears, and then squatted down and rubbed the dog's head angrily.
Although Xiongba is growing longer now and is still in the awkward stage of being ugly, the fur feels very comfortable to the touch.
"Let's go up the mountain again in two days." Lin Heng rubbed the dog's head and said.
"Wow!" Xiongba happily performed a backflip for Lin Heng.
Lin Heng: "?"
"How did you learn it?" He was a little surprised. Xiongba could actually do a backflip, and he had never been taught it.
"Woof woof!"
Xiongba came again on the spot, and there seemed to be a trace of pride in the dog's eyes.
"Damn, he's so handsome." Lin Heng rubbed the dog's head hard. This backflip was so cool.
"Xiulan, how did it learn to do a backflip?" Lin Heng walked to the kitchen and asked.
"Well, it can do it by itself accidentally. The last time I saw it, it was performing for Xiaoxia." Xiulan thought for a while and replied.
"Okay, then Xiongba is really smart." Lin Heng still didn't understand how Xiongba learned it.
Could it be that he rolled down the hillside and learned it accidentally?
No way.
"You're here just in time. Help me pour the batter into the colander. Let's eat fish noodles for lunch." Xiulan said, looking at Lin Heng in a daze.
Noodle fish is different from cold fish. Noodle fish is made of cornmeal or flour, while cold fish is made of starch.
The steps for making fish are just the opposite. First, add cold water to cornmeal and make a paste, then put it into a pot of boiling water.
"good."
Lin Heng picked up the batter Xiulan had mixed and poured it into the ladle Xiulan was holding.
Lin Heng poured a little bit, and she shook it. The corn batter fell into the boiling water and quickly formed into yellow flour fish.
When the fish is cooked, scoop it out and put it in cold water. Pour a bowl of vinegar soup on it, add some fried shredded potatoes, and a bowl of fish is ready.
"time to eat."
When it was brought to the table, Lin Heng ate two large bowls, mainly because he was hungry, not because it was delicious.
It's not that Xiulan's cooking doesn't taste good, but that she is tired of cornmeal. In the past month since she came back, she has seen cornmeal at least every day.
If you keep eating it, you will get tired of it no matter how delicious it is, let alone coarse cornmeal.
Fortunately, he had meat to eat, otherwise he would suffer from depression after eating cornmeal and vegetarian dishes.
After experiencing the era of food explosion, it is really difficult to adapt to coming back.
After eating, Lin Heng took a nap at home. It was too sunny at noon, so he might as well stay at home.
The insulation effect of the earthen house is quite good, and it is not particularly hot inside. Unlike a concrete house, if there is no insulation material and the outside is exposed to the sun, the inside of the house will be like a big steamer.
When he woke up, Lin Heng looked at his watch and saw that it was already past two o'clock.
Walking to the backyard, he washed his face with cold water at the edge of the fish pond and looked at the small fry flowing upstream to the stream. They were all very active.
These fry have grown a lot recently. They are no longer triangular with only eyes and tails visible, but now look like fish, with a length of two centimeters.
In the same way, I eat more, and even two to three pounds of wheat bran are eaten every day.
"Hey, why are there only these two groupers in my stream?"
After feeding the grass carp fry, Lin Heng walked over to look at the creek groupers and found that there were only five or six left.
When she walked to the main room, she was just about to settle the score with Xiongba when she saw Xiaoxia feeding the cat there and watching the kitten eating fish. She watched with wide eyes.
"I asked why my sleeves were wet that day. My feelings started a long time ago, right?"
Lin Heng shook his head helplessly.
"Xiaoxia, have you been catching fish to feed the cat?" Lin Heng looked at his daughter and asked.
"When the fish jumps out, I'll pick it up." Xiaoxia opened her big, pure eyes and waved her little hands.
"Okay, then be careful of the cat biting you." Lin Heng had no choice but to think that this might be the case. Xiaoxia probably didn't have the skills to catch fish.
"It doesn't bite." Xiaoxia shook her head and defended the cat.
Lin Heng felt that it was still a bit dangerous. He had to watch her and feed her next time. This was a wild cat, and being scratched or bitten would be serious.
While talking to Xiaoxia, Xiulan and Caiyun came in from the gate. Xiulan was holding pig grass. Apparently she woke up first to weed the pig badger.
Caiyun hurriedly ran to Lin Heng, took his arm, and said happily: "Second brother, I heard Sister-in-law Xiulan said that you came back with a lot of books, are they all for me?"
Lin Heng looked at her with a straight face: "No."
"Second brother, you have a sharp mouth but a soft heart. I don't believe it." Caiyun didn't believe it and said with a smile.
"It's really a joke."
Lin Heng smiled and rubbed Caiyun's hair, and then said with a smile: "Except for the Historical Records and Tiangong Kaiwu, you can read the others. This time I brought back a total of more than forty books."
"Thank you, second brother. I herded all your sheep for you before I went to school." Caiyun was so excited that her eyes sparkled.
Lin Heng went to the next room to bring the book over and asked again. "By the way, do you know Liu Ciwen?"
Caiyun nodded as she flipped through the book: "I know him. He was one year younger than me. I met him when I was herding cattle recently."
"Then bring him two books tomorrow when you are herding cattle. I promised to lend him two books." Lin Heng looked at his sister and said.
"He also likes reading?" Caiyun was a little surprised.
"Of course, otherwise why would people borrow books? Maybe they have studied more deeply than you." Lin Heng spread his hands.
"I don't believe it." Caiyun shook her head and said, "But I've made a note of this. I'll bring him two books tomorrow."
After Caiyun finished speaking, she sat down and flipped through the books one by one.
Xiulan saw that they had finished talking, and then spoke again: "Dad and his friends are plowing the fields in the afternoon. Let's go too. The wheat has been harvested before, and we have two acres of land vacant at the foot of Hongfeng Mountain."
