Chapter 12 Under the Great Locust Tree

Su Shuwang stayed in the town to watch the car, Zhang Lang ran back to the village and called for people, and it was more than ten miles of mountain road... Zhang Lang returned to the village and it was already dark, and it was difficult to walk on the mountain road at night, and it was also dangerous. Zhang Lang did not rush to call people, and stayed at home all night... He asked people to move things in the town the next day.

A large truck of goods was dispatched throughout the village, and the things were not brought back to the village until the evening.

Looking at the mountains of things piled up under the big locust tree, Zhang's mother felt sorry for the money and couldn't help but blame: "How come you kid, why do you buy so many things... How much does it cost!"

"Mom... these are given by the army leaders! There was no money." Zhang Lang didn't dare to say that he bought it himself, otherwise the delivery conference might be changed to a criticism and controversy conference.

"You kid... that's even worse... how can you ask for so many things from others! What will you pay for in the future?" Although Zhang's mother was illiterate, she understood the truth. These things were more income than the whole village's annual income, so how much debt would it be for?

"Mom... It's okay, let Xiao Su... take the wild boars I beat back. The city people are so good... Besides, the meat in the city is also nervous." Zhang Lang tried hard to persuade his mother. He knew that if he didn't convince her... this knot would be held in her heart for a long time.

If you get sick after being suffocated, Zhang Lang has no place to cry.

"real?"

"Really, mom... can I still lie to you?" Zhang Lang nodded vigorously.

"Then... take all the wild boar meat in the family to the leader! If someone gives me so many things, we can't be stingy... Don't let others say that we are ignorant!" When Zhang's mother heard that she could use wild boar meat to repay favors, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Over the years, the villagers have helped her family every year, and these favors and debts are pressing on her heart like mountains.

"Then what... what do you do with these things? When should we use them at home... or should we give some points to the village?"

When Zhang Lang heard this, he was overjoyed and was worried about why he told his mother that he didn't expect his mother to be so sensible.

"Well... Mom! When I first selected things, I thought of giving it to everyone in the village! They have helped me a lot over the years."

When Zhang's mother heard this, her face was full of joy. Her son was so considerate that she could finally pay back the debt of favors. When she was in a good mood, her face turned rosy.

Seeing the villagers talking around the supplies, Zhang Lang and his mother said and ran to the big locust tree to find the fourth uncle and third uncle.

My third uncle is the secretary of Xilongzhuang and the third son-in-law of Grandpa Zhang Lang’s family.

"Three uncles...Fourth uncle!"

"The wolf cub is here... what do you plan to deal with these things? It's not OK to pile them up." The third uncle asked.

"I'm here to discuss with my third uncle. I'm going to send these things to the old and young men in our village. Thank you for your help in my family over the years."

"Okay... It's great that you can think so... People cannot forget their roots, they must know how to be grateful!" The fourth uncle applauded with relief.

"Now you are the secretary and director, so you have the final say! The two old guys will check their children at home and enjoy the happiness!" The third uncle felt a little uncomfortable when Zhang Lang snatched his secretary's position, and he spoke a little bit.

"Three uncle... you can't give up. I don't understand a lot of things when I'm young... I still need you to take charge of the helm! There is a saying that doesn't mean to help you get on the horse and send you a ride."

"Okay! As long as I don't mind my nagging, I'll give you a blow." The third uncle said with a smile.

It’s not that I really don’t want to be the secretary’s position, but I suddenly feel a little uncomfortable.

After all, people in this era are still very simple. When the secretary and village chief, they always think about how to benefit the villagers. Few people say they can get money from home.

Zhang Lang's respect made him forget his discomfort and smiled happily.

"Wolf cub, what are you going to divide it?" Seeing that Zhang Lang easily dealt with Tung Chee-hwa, the fourth uncle smiled particularly brightly.

“Score equally by head!”

"Okay, just do what you said."

"Then I have to trouble you, my third uncle and the fourth uncle, after all, you are familiar with each other in the village."

"Okay... this matter is not a problem. I wish I could have such trouble every day!" My third uncle did not refuse, and did not forget to joke with Zhang Lang.

The third uncle gave in to the fourth uncle again before standing on the platform under the big locust tree.

He raised his hand and rang the big bronze bell twice. When the audience saw that the old secretary was about to speak, he shut up and waited.

"Everyone knows... the wolf cubs in our village came back from the army, and they were all things he bought from the city and gave to everyone."

When I heard it was for everyone, the bottom immediately exploded.

I was secretly envious when I saw the things piled up in mountains just now, but I didn’t expect that they would be distributed to me.

"Okay, stop arguing, listen to the wolf cubs now." The third uncle rang the bronze bell again... and shouted.

Zhang Lang stood on the stage and cleared his throat, "We say that the old and young men in Xilong Village are all passed down by one ancestor. At that time, the ancestor of the Dong family and my Zhang family were brothers who kowtowed, so the ancestor of the Dong family is also the ancestor of the Zhang family. We are all relatives, relatives who break the bones and connect the tendons. Since they are all relatives, we won't say anything if they are empty. Just do something, it's real."

There was a burst of laughter coming from below.

Zhang Lang waited for everyone to laugh before pointing at the supplies and continued, "These things are my thanks for helping my family over the years! In addition, the town promised to send militias to help us widen the mountain roads, and at least they can pass through trucks. In the future, we will never have to walk in the town again! You can ride a horse, ride a donkey, or even ride a bicycle to the town. Of course, those with wealth can buy cars... drive a car to the town. It turned out that it would take half a day to walk, and you can get there in an hour."

"Buy a car? Who can drive that thing?"

"I guess Uncle Wolf will definitely drive it!"

"I can't afford it even if I can open it!"

"Who said I can't afford it? Uncle Wolf is so capable, maybe he can buy a car one day!"

"Then the relationship is good. In the future, I will not have to walk when I go to the city to be my Uncle Wolf's car...."

"You think it's beautiful. Can Uncle Wolf bring you into the city if he buys a car?"

"What's wrong? Why can't Uncle Wolf's car pull me into the city?"

"Uncle Wolf is so busy, how can I get the time to pull you into the city!"

"Then I can take me with me when Uncle Wolf comes to the city to do business."

Seeing that the crooked building below was really outrageous, Zhang Lang hurriedly rang the bronze bell.

"I'll be quiet, keep listening to me, we are all relatives... There's nothing to hide! Let's say it clearly... I'm going to lead everyone to wealth! Not to mention it, within three years, I promise that every family can buy motorcycles and a car in five years!"

"Really Uncle Wolf? Can you really afford a motorcycle?"

"Uncle Wolf, what do you think you will do!"

"Master Wolf, we all listen to you... what do you say!"
