Otherworldly Merchant

Chapter 2021: The Tenth Good Man

When Li Mazi and I returned to Boss Guo's house again, it was already after 2: 00 in the evening - we were trying to excuse ourselves. It was a bit unfortunate for them to go back to the house so late and talk about their family's rest.

But Boss Guo said that we have come all the way to Shanxi. Mizumi has been busy until now. If he doesn't eat a meal, he is even more surprised. And he had asked his wife to take her daughter back to her mother's house, and her son and Xiaoxu lived in the office, leaving the house empty, just to entertain us.

At first glance, it really failed Mr. Guo's intentions!

And this guy doesn't have any big rich shelves at all, and he's friendly and friendly like an old friend he's known for a long time. So we had to be respectful.

As soon as he entered the door, Mr. Guo dragged the apron next to the shoe rack and instructed us: “Sit down for a moment, I'll be right there.” Then he slipped into the kitchen.

Although Li Mazi also knew that Mr. Guo was simple, he was also very surprised when he saw the house.

But whether it's Xu Guangsheng's imitation palace, Lin Feng's European villa, or Liu Yang's riverside villa, there's less of a sense of kindness than this ordinary stunning house.

In the kitchen, a spoon collided with a tinkling bell, and the smell of vegetables floated from time to time.

As soon as Li Mazi smelled the fragrance, he immediately swallowed his mouth.

“Well, buddy, why don't you take a break and I'll help.” Li Mazi rushed into the kitchen.

I know this guy is a help, but he actually took two bites to figure it out first.

But I can't go in with it —— the first time I'm a guest, I'm not waiting to go to the table, and I'm in the kitchen half-full first, which is a little off the record.

But I've been hungry for a long time, and I smell such a strong scent. Where can I sit? So I looked at it with my hands up and down, and I distracted myself.

Boss Guo's house is very ordinary and the setting is extremely simple.

A slightly older leather sofa, black walnut-pressed glass coffee table with a grocery rack next to the TV wall.

There are a couple of random books on it, and a few other little things that don't have to be funny.

I've seen it roughly the last time I came here, and I was particularly impressed by the engraving on that little teacup. Turning around, my gaze was attracted to another photograph.

This is the most ordinary family blessing!

In the middle of the picture, sitting on a fat old man, behind him stands the slightly younger Mr. and Mrs. Guo. Guo Xia Guofang is only six or seven years old, and leans on the old man.

The whole family smiled and showed a full sense of happiness.

From the looks of it, the old man must be Mr. Guo's father.

What attracted me was the pendant on his father's neck.

It looks exactly like the one Huang Dawang held tight in his hand!

It doesn't seem like there's anything special about it, but it's a crystal that hangs like a teardrop on a copper chain.

But I have already seen with my own eyes that this is not something ordinary, but something of the Tenth Century.

What do you mean, Dade X?

The ancestors, successive generations, are good people who have done good deeds.

It's really not easy to do only good things and not bad things all your life. It's already a different kind of thing, but even teenagers are like that!

Everyone like that brings their own blessings. It's like a walking Mileva.

If you have helped such a person, the accumulation of Yin De is even more astonishing, not to mention that I have violated the rules of Yin Businessmen several times before, and the Yin Debt owed will be written off!

“Let's eat!” In the meantime, Mr. Guo walked out of the kitchen with two dishes laughing.

“Mr. Guo, with all due respect, is this my father?” I pointed to the photo and asked.

“Yes.” Mr. Guo nodded. "He passed away a few years ago. ”

“That chain...”

“He carried it with him since he remembered it, until he passed it on to me before he died, and said he wanted me to pass it on to Guo Fang later. What, is this still a baby?” Boss Guo smiled and then said with regret: "There was an accident at the site the previous year. When I went to the site to deal with it, it was lost in chaos. ”

Speaking of which, he shook his head helplessly and sighed a long time: “Hey, forget about this, Master Zhang, come and sit down. Try my craft!” He went back to the kitchen.

Lost it at the construction site? Looks like it.

Didn't Zhao honestly say that the chain was what he found in the construction site?

In other words, Mr. Guo is the kind man who is full of ten years of merit!

Shortly afterwards, Mr. Guo went in and out several more times, and the dishes sprayed with incense and nose filled a large table.

Li Mazi walked out of the kitchen with his greasy hands and greeted me with a drum bag in his mouth. “Come and try it, Mr. Guo is really good at it! I think this mouth used to grow white. ”

“Ha ha...” Mr. Guo laughed as he held up his beer: "Master Li is really good at talking! Come on, I don't have any more thank-you and wind-up crap today, let's just get drunk. ”

Full table meals are very ordinary, with no rare wild flavors, no famous ingredients, and even the dishes are not very eye-catching. But just like Mr. Guo's character, it's ordinary, plain and innocent, with a calming and refreshing scent.

Soon, under a windy cloud change between the three of us, the table meal was eliminated by more than half. Li Mazi was even more supportive of only hiccups. He said, “Not bad! Not bad! With this meal, Shanxi doesn't deserve this! I wish I could eat more. ”

“Ha ha...” Mr. Guo laughed. “If you like it, Master Li, you can stay a few more days. Just in time, some of my recent projects have been shut down. ”

When I heard him say that, I immediately remembered the first phase of the project he mentioned when we first met.

“Old Guo, the reason the newly built residential neighborhood has to be shut down is because of the digging of ancient tombs, as we all know. But what about the first phase of the tunnel project? Why can't we start?” I asked.

“Hey, forget it!” As soon as Boss Guo listened to this, he had to fill another glass of spirits with sadness: “In order to open this tunnel, I have been fully prepared for more than 10 years, and I wanted to stab this mountain in a hole when I went to school and pave a way out...”

“Why is it so poor here, just because the paths are too remote? ”

“We are in the immediate vicinity of Hebei, not far from Beijing's straight line, but all the highway railways are bypassed from here. In earlier years, large chunks of vegetable fruit could not be transported even to the ground. The farmers worked hard for a whole year and eventually had to sit and cry! Though it's better now, it's also because shipping costs and time have kept it from selling. Outworkers, schooling, seeing a doctor are all problems. This mountain is dead and stuck in the lifeblood of the entire county! If we don't open this tunnel, the whole county's gonna be poor forever! All my life.”

“It's been my dream for years! The reason I'm doing this isn't to make much money, to be a millionaire, but to make a living for the whole county! But... hey.” After that, Mr. Guo sighed again.
