On the 22nd, except for the seven members of Chen Liping's family who didn't come out to work and made tile blanks at home, the other 45 members of the ninth team were no less, laughing and walking all the way up the mountain. Today's task is to dig medicinal materials at the edge of the primitive secondary forest.
It can be said that since Chen Daniu scolded the younger members, everyone's working attitude was very different; In addition to being unable to pick up a hundred kilograms, everyone has the same speed of digging, pulling and cutting.
Long Jianhua later thought that under such circumstances, even distribution is a good way of management and more humane.
Climbing up the mountain pass, Chen Daniu said with a smile, "Jianhua, we two go first. It's late autumn after a month's absence. Beware of 'seven bees and eight snakes'. " He said to others, "you are a little behind. Don't be nervous when you encounter unknown situations; Brother Lisheng, watch more. "
"Seven bees and eight snakes" refers to July and August of the lunar calendar. Bees and snakes are the most poisonous times and can't be provoked easily.
Long Jianhua nodded, "OK." He bent over and picked up a stone and threw it with all his strength towards the woods below.
"Pouncing on the edge", a group of birds flew up from the forest and flew to the direction of the primitive secondary forest; Then a bird fell from a branch.
Daniel Chen opened his mouth and laughed, "Jianhua, you're lucky to shoot a pheasant."
Long Jianhua smiled, "come to my house for a drink at night." Go quickly, pick up the pheasant and weigh it, no less than three kilograms.
The pheasant's feathers are shiny, and its forehead and upper mouth are black, but it looks blue-green; The top of the head is brown, there is a black horizontal band on the neck, the base of the upper back feather is purple brown, there are white feather dry lines, and the back and shoulders are chestnut red. It's beautiful.
He smiled in his heart and said that he had beaten more rabbits. Today, he changed his object and began to beat birds.
Long Jianhua shot and killed the pheasant. The team was in chaos. The men rushed forward one after another, picking up stones and throwing them on the front or left and right. There were still some effects. A group of birds were frightened away, and rabbits, weasels and snakes in the distance fled one after another. There was no need for long Jianhua and Chen Daniu to open the way in front; As for shooting down birds, they were just for fun, but they didn't really think about it.
As they walked forward, sporadic medicinal materials began to appear. Chen Daniu shouted, "what do you see? We'll separate when we go back."
Long Jianhua added, "don't be too scattered, and you should see if there are snakes in the tree."
This frightened everyone, and some women who were walking away immediately stopped moving.
Chen Daniu hurriedly said, "match it, five people in a group, and each group will act together."
Several hurriedly ran behind long Jianhua and said with a smile that they wanted to work with him. He caught a big snake of more than 20 kilograms and robbed food in the mouth of a tiger. He is recognized as the bravest person in the ninth team. Finally, long Jianhua and Wang Wangcai's son Wang finally came together with three young women of similar age.
Long Jianhua took them to the far left, and then began to walk down.
It has to be said that the non centralized growth of medicinal materials also has great advantages, that is, the single size is large, which can make up for a large part of the problem of small quantity. After arriving at the canyon, the baskets of the five people were filled with more than half.
While everyone was looking for herbs, a voice came from the forest behind him. Soon someone appeared in the canyon, one after another, a total of 76.
Chen Daniu took the lead in saying hello, "Wang Shitou, are you here too?"
Wang finally whispered to long Jianhua, "they are from the eighth team, and Wang Shitou is the captain."
It was said that it was team 8. Long Jianhua looked for Qin Wenbo in the crowd. He didn't see him or care. Now he also uses his spare time at noon and afternoon to make herbs. He wants to ask for leave to sell herbs.
Wang Shitou laughed, "Daniel Chen, I didn't expect you to come earlier. How was the harvest? " He went to Chen Daniu, looked at his basket, and said with a smile, "Chen Daniu, you have half a basket, and we also have half a basket; Otherwise, our two teams make a bet. Whoever wins will take each other's medicine and let himself go home first. How's it going? "
Daniel Chen glanced at the herbs in Wang Shitou's basket and said with disdain, "most of you are grass roots and worthless. No gambling. "
Wang Shitou said loudly, "we have 76 people. You only have 40 or so. You are worthless and have a lot of money. Don't you have the guts? "
Many people in the eighth team followed the coax and kept running against him and the ninth team, which was hard to hear in words; In particular, a man in his twenties has the loudest voice and the worst speech.
Someone in the ninth team shouted, "Daniel, compare! Who is afraid of who? "
Long Jianhua walked over with a basket and a hoe. He doesn't want to bet, but he wants to see how they bet.
Seeing that all the men of the ninth team came behind him and supported him in gambling, Chen Daniu shouted, "Wang Shitou, you put the baskets together and we put them together. Today, our ninth team gambled with your eighth team! "
Wang Shitou laughed, "you nine teams have seed! It's still the old rule, hand bar, waist bar and torsion bar. Each team sends three people to win three games. "
When it was his turn to pick someone, Chen Daniel calmed down and said angrily, "we shouldn't block it. Originally, our team had only 22 strong labor forces. Three of brother Liping's family didn't come. Sister-in-law orchid's strength was not as strong as that of men, so there were only 18. Look at the eighth team. They are strong and strong, and Wang Shigang is a master. "
Chen Yuanshan snorted, "when you are excited by others, your mind becomes hot. You should have refused. Now I have promised others that I can only go up and swallow my teeth in my stomach. The eight teams are just those. Don't be too afraid. I'll go to the waist bar! "
Chen Liqiang nodded, "I can twist the bar, hand bar and waist bar."
Chen Zhuo and Chen Liqian said at the same time, "I twist the bar, hand bar."
Then, a strong labor force reported the projects they felt sure of, and Chen Daniu's face improved slightly.
Long Jianhua asked Wang what the three projects meant. After listening to them, he said "Oh". These projects are actually very simple, reflecting the strength of relevant parts of the body.
A bamboo pole or tree is called a pole. The hand bar is that both sides straighten their arms, press one end of the bar with their palms, push the other side out of the specified range or bend the other side's hands to win; Waist bar, the way is the same, just put the bar on the waist and push the other party out of the specified range to win; Twist the bar, both sides hold the bar with one or both hands, stand in place and twist clockwise. Whoever looses the bar or moves his feet will lose.
After a brief discussion, the two sides looked for the venue with baskets. There was a flat land of nearly five feet recognized by both sides. Chen Daniu and Wang Shitou came to the flat land, picked up the broken stones and threw them away, carefully checked whether there were pits in it, and then delimited a three foot arena.
Potholes will affect the war. If there is a pothole under your feet, the player can step on it and use its power; In the hand bar and waist bar competition, even if the strength is a little worse than the opponent, you can turn the plate by virtue of potholes.
