    74110 said: "Old man, is there any food here? We have been driving all day and night, and we are all hungry and tired. Can we go to rest for a while?" The old man said: "My house is relatively close to here. If  If you don¡¯t dislike it, I can invite you to my house to have a rest and have a little something to eat. As for other things, I can¡¯t help you, I¡¯m sorry.¡± 74110 asked: ¡°Excuse me, old man, your home is far away from here.  How far is it? By the way, do you know where to go to Wild Boar Mountain? If you can take us there, I can pay you accordingly." The old man looked distressed, and he said bitterly: "Wild Boar Mountain  Are you going there? I don¡¯t know where that place is, but that place is at least forty miles away from here! There are no roads in some places! I really can¡¯t help you. As for my home, it¡¯s far away  It's not very far, that's seven or eight miles, let's go!"

    Seven or eight miles is not far away?  Or mountain road?  74110 couldn't understand the meaning of this sentence at all. He shook his head and said, "Okay, thank you, old man, we won't go. By the way, do you know the village chief's house, what's his name, where he lives?"  Where is it? Can you tell us about it?" The old man said: "Our township head is called Miao Shoucheng, he lives in Gongjiling Village, which family he is in, but I have some difficulties to say, and I have never been there.  I also heard from others. His home seems to be nearly twenty miles away from here, and it is not in the same direction as Wild Boar Mountain!"

    Upon hearing this, everyone was almost paralyzed.  74110 wanted to ask the old man some more questions, but the old man ignored them. He said, "I'm going back too. I was supposed to go back last night, but I was delayed by a day. Go back earlier, so that the family can rest assured earlier.  Well, I won¡¯t bother you anymore, Gongji Ridge is that direction, you go along this small road for seven or eight miles, and then you will make a fork in the road, it seems to be the one on the left, I don¡¯t remember clearly  .If you are not in a hurry, go somewhere to borrow a few nights. I remember that I went to the market two days ago, and it will be Wednesday in five days. This is better than you looking everywhere for them.  "

    "What? We have to wait five days? Then we can't wait. There is no hotel here, no restaurant or anything, how can we stay for so long? No, no, old man, can this work? Help me find one  Those who are familiar with the roads of the village head Miao¡¯s house will lead us once, of course, we can give him money for footwork, so how about the transaction price of 50 yuan?¡± The old man¡¯s eyes lit up when he heard that it was 50 yuan  , he said: "Okay, then I will go with you now, okay?" 74110 said strangely: "Old man, didn't you just say that you don't know the way to the village head Miao's house? Didn't you want to go home  Tell me you¡¯re safe?¡± The old man smiled and said, ¡°What¡¯s the report? Sometimes we go hunting in the mountains, and we hunt for three or four days.  It's my business, I can find out, and I promise not to miss your business! Can we settle this matter? Fifty yuan wallets will be brought into the township head's house! But I still say the same thing, as for  Whether I can see the mayor himself is beyond my control, and I want to make this clear to you!"

    74110 looked at the big and small Wang, they all nodded, so he said: "Okay, then let's go now!"

    It took more than four hours to walk the 20-mile mountain road that the old man mentioned. One of the benefits of being in this mountain is that there are trees everywhere, and their roads are almost all under the shade of trees, so it is not necessarily hot.  The old man asked every passer-by. Xiao Chuchu roughly counted that they saw no more than fifty people on the road in one morning, and the old man asked at least five. When it was one o'clock in the afternoon,  The old man pointed to the three-room thatched house not far in front of him and said, "This is the village chief's house. My mission is complete, and I have to go back!"

    74110 said: "I'm sorry, old man, first, we didn't confirm that this family is the village chief's family, we will only pay after we have been confirmed, and second, you have to take us back.  When you led us to turn left and right, our heads were dizzy, and we couldn¡¯t tell the difference between south, east and north, and we couldn¡¯t go back.¡± The old man thought for a while, and said, ¡°I want you to go back, if  I want it, but I have delayed it for too long, so I have to add more money, how about this, I don¡¯t want to ask for more, you can give me another ten yuan, a total of sixty yuan, okay?¡± 74110 said: ¡°Okay  Yes, sixty yuan is sixty yuan! That's it! " The old man said: "I have to explain something, you can't stay overnight, if you stay overnight, you have to double it, I want one hundred and twenty yuan!"

    Xiao Wang said: "Old man, you have also seen that we rushed here from Taoyuan Township, we walked here for more than four hours, we were all a little tired from walking, there are still children and girls here, especially  Mao Wenqing, he has problems with his legged script, I also saw that he has reached a certain limit. When we go back later, we will definitely walk more slowly. We will not be able to go back without six hours.  On the return journey, in the most ideal state, it was already after seven o¡¯clock when we returned there, and it was already dark at that time. Do you think it is appropriate for you to ask us for so much money?  We don't want to embarrass you, and you don't embarrass us, okay?  How about this, if you stay overnight, 80 yuan, a fixed price, if you agree, we will follow this standard, if you don't agree, please leave now!  "

    The old man nodded and said: "Okay, okay, I agree. If you stay overnight, it will be 80 yuan. I also know that you are here on business. The money is beyond your expectations. You have no way to reimburse it. I  Don't be too greedy, isn't it like this? This matter is settled like this!" He smiled all over his face. In his opinion, eighty yuan is already a huge sum of money, and his family's monthly income  Maybe there are only a few, not to mention that this job is neither tiring nor risky.  Of course he would.

    74110 asked: "Your village head, does he also live in such a thatched house?" Hearing this, the old man asked back: "Several, I want to ask you, along the road, have you seen the big tile-roofed house?"  Do you think our township chief is particularly rich? He is the same, very poor! Don¡¯t be afraid to tell you, just say that the 80 yuan you gave me casually, 80 yuan is for you,  Maybe it¡¯s nothing at all, but for us, it¡¯s a huge sum of money! In our place, few people use cash, unless you do business with outsiders. You may not believe that, in our place, outsiders come in very rarely.  , Sometimes no one comes in for a year or even several years! You have so many outsiders coming in at once, this is the most I have seen in the past ten years! If you are not all wearing police uniforms, I can tell you clearly,  I don¡¯t want you guys.¡± (Remember this website URL: www.hlnovel.com
