Rebirth Craftsman

Chapter 368 Ten Miles Banquet

Xiangxi.

East of Crucian Village.

On the edge of the cliff where the bamboo bridge is built.

After Liu Xing arranged for the team to unload the tent on the truck, he took the lead in installing it himself.

There is no way. Too much time was wasted with Liu Ruyan before. If you don't lead by example this time, I'm afraid you don't want to go back to the banquet for Shili before dark.

But to be honest, Liu Xing's expectations for the Shili Banquet are not very high.

After all, Xiangxi’s own conditions are limited. He restricted the size of the Shili banquet. In addition, because of the traffic congestion, many villagers in the surrounding villages do not know about the construction of the bamboo bridge, so they do not necessarily come to the Shili banquet.

The Shili Banquet is nothing more than a legend in Xiangxi.

Don't be true, and don't have too much hope.

Because sometimes the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

But unexpectedly, he greeted hundreds of craftsmen, "Hurry up and do things, and I will have a banquet for ten miles later." The enthusiasm of these craftsmen was unprecedentedly high, and the enthusiasm for doing things was instantaneous. Was mobilized.

They gathered in groups of three to five, moving things, installing tents and installing tents, and they unloaded all the materials on the truck in just two hours.

Among them, dozens of large boxes were loaded with rock bamboo crossbows. Liu Xing did not ask other craftsmen to lift them from the large truck. Instead, he took Sagong Lei to the installed large tent by himself.

And the two men in black who arranged with Mr. Liu explained that no one should be close, except for those whom he can trust with Sikong Lei and Li Dawei.

The two men in black naturally nodded and agreed. They also guessed that Liu Xing’s contents in the dozen or so boxes were the key to changing the traffic in Xiangxi. After waiting for Liu Xing to leave to do other things, they took out their portables. The guns he was carrying stood aside seriously.

This scene scared many thoughtful craftsmen, and also scared the villagers of the crucian carp village who came to help build the bamboo bridge, especially Tang Guoqing. When he saw this serious posture, he was scared and sweated.

But at the same time, I admire Liu Xing's methods, because the construction of the bamboo bridge itself is a serious matter, and it can't be a joke.

He is also very curious about the contents of the big box. Is it a gun?Or something else he hasn't seen?

Seeing someone calling him to help move things, he quickly recovered and ran over.

Time flies quickly in the busy, and the sun is about to set in the blink of an eye.Seeing that all the materials were moved, Liu Xing saw that there was nothing else left. When he arrived in front of Sikong Lei, he said apologetically: "You may not be able to go to Xiangxi for a banquet for ten miles, because the safety of these materials is very important, so Next, you will bring Ahu, Wang Jiabao, Wang Afu and others to guard these supplies. As for the meal, Lao Li and his kitchen help will stay and make them for you."

"Good!" Si Konglei nodded.

He has no opinion on Liu Xing's arrangement.

After all, Mr. Liu explained to him before, and everything depends on Liu Xing.

Now that the construction of the bamboo bridge is imminent, there can be no problems with the materials, so he must guard it.

"Just what is in your dozen or so big boxes?" Seeing Liu Xing about to ride a motorcycle with dozens of other craftsmen, he couldn't help asking.

"This matter can't be said for the time being, but it's related to this!" Liu Xing smiled and handed the wooden box containing the ten arrow bamboo crossbow to Si Konglei: "If there is any accident, this should be able to save your life."

"You don't have to make it so serious, right?" Si Konglei said in his mouth, but he took the wooden box with his hands.

In his opinion, as long as there are ten arrows and bamboo crossbows in hand, he can easily face no matter how many poisonous insects and beasts come.

Because compared to other people, he knew too much about the power of this ten arrows bamboo crossbow.

Liu Xing smiled upon hearing the words: "If it’s too early to finish the ten-mile banquet, I’ll be back on a motorcycle. This is the initial basic work of constructing the bamboo bridge. I want to complete it in ten days, so some places have to You can help."

There is no way. It is not summer vacation or winter vacation. It is an important stage when he is about to apply for high school in the third year of junior high. Although he is a reborn person, he will have food without studying.

However, it was a regret in his life that he did not go to high school or college before rebirth, so he must make up for it this time, even if he paid for it, he had to experience the life of high school and college.

Of course, the most important point is that his parents also want him to be admitted to high school. After all, their family is rich now, and they don’t want to be like before. They even need to save money on food, drink and clothes.

The insider, Sikong Lei, naturally knew. He waved his hand and said, "Go! But you have to remember that when you are attending a banquet in Shili, you can't drink the wine handed over by others, and there are some girls. Something to send!"

"I know!" Liu Xing smiled and nodded.

In this place of western Hunan, some ethnic minorities are proud of how much they drink. As long as they receive a stranger’s wine glass or other utensils at the banquet, it will be miserable, unless you give the stranger a drink. Get down, then you have to drink it all the time.

He was fooled before he was reborn, so he still remembers it still.

As for what the girl gave, it was a token of love. Once you take it, you will marry the girl. This is very suitable for a few single craftsmen who follow him.

But he is only fifteen years old now, so naturally he would not be so'pawned'.

Seeing that the craftsmen and friends who did not follow, all gathered together and drank a drink, and Sikong Lei also took Zhe Ahu and a few trustworthy people to patrol, and took the lead on a motorcycle to Liu Ruyan. Drive to the hut.

Several large empty trucks slowly followed behind.

Tang Tang and Tang Guoqing sat on the cargo box and looked at the dozens of tents that quickly disappeared behind them. There was a lot of expectation in their eyes.

But more are doubts.

The place where the bamboo bridge is built is a cliff of ten thousand feet.

In the countryside, that is a natural danger that cannot be overcome.

Can Liu Xing be able to overcome natural dangers and build bamboo bridges on the cliffs?

This is obviously weird.

However, Tang Tang believed in Liu Xing unconditionally, because since Liu Xing came to Xiangxi, he has created too many miracles in Xiangxi.

...

As night falls, the stars are shining.

The moon came out early, and the silver-white light spilled on the ground and illuminated the entire western Hunan.

Today is a good day for Xiangxi.

Because of the ten-mile banquet that has not been held for many years.

And the honorable guest who banquet is Liu Xing who built the bamboo bridge for them.

Many people in Xiangxi didn't believe that Liu Xing was able to build a bamboo bridge on the cliff. After all, he had been fooled and deceived before, and that was beyond count.

However, Liu Ruyan and Zhuge Dan, two highly respected teachers personally visited the house and said that the construction of the bamboo bridge was true and that the roadbed leading to the location of the bamboo bridge had been built.

This time, these people in Xiangxi didn’t have any doubts, but gathered together happily. Under the leadership of Chief Zhuang and Village Chief Tang, they gave rich money and made a strong contribution. Of course, more. It is the materials used to hold the banquet of ten miles.

As soon as the people from the seventy-two villages gathered in these ten miles and eight townships in western Hunan, the scene was quite a sensation, and as the night fell, more and more people gathered together, at least over tens of thousands.

Some of them carried lanterns, some carried square wooden tables, some carried large grass carps, and others drove the big fat pigs out of the house and gathered them on the built roadbed.

Due to the large number of people, it can be seen from a distance, like a winding dragon, wandering on the roadbed.

As for the length of this'great dragon', I am afraid it has almost reached ten miles.

This number seems exaggerated, but today on the roadbed built in Xiangxi, it seems to be a fact that has to be said.

Of course, this is not the point. It is not to set off the grandness of the Shili banquet, but to say that under the leadership of the leaders of the ten li and eight townships in Xiangxi, such as the head of the Zhuang clan, the head of the village Tang, etc. It was really a success.

And according to the understanding of the chief Zhuang.

The number of people from Xiangxi who are going to participate in this ten-mile banquet will exceed 30,000 or even more, and the specific figures cannot be counted.

Of course, so many people eat and entertain is a problem.

But their ancestors had long experience in hosting Shili banquets, so this Shili banquet for Liu Xing was not difficult at all.

Because the people from all villages and villages who came to participate in the ten-mile banquet are all responsible for the food in their own villages or villages. They are not related to each other, but they form a collective. Although some villages have good conditions, some villages have poor conditions, they are finally held. The quality of the Shili banquet is somewhat unsatisfactory.

But as long as the meaning of entertaining Liu Xing, a distinguished guest, is expressed, it will be fine.

Of course, the table banquet for Liu Xing must be the most sumptuous.

That was a banquet hosted by all the people in the ten mile and eight townships of Xiangxi. As for the legendary dragon and tiger meat, it is even more so.

But no one knows the specific operation details.

Even many people in Xiangxi don't know what kind of dish this dragon and tiger meat is. They only know that it is very precious, and it is not for people who have made a great contribution to Xiangxi.

The bonfire party was also held under the arrangement of Liu Ruyan. On the wide roadbed on the east side of the crucian carp village, a raging fire radiated its own heat on a pile of dry wood. It not only illuminates the surrounding singing and dancing The happy faces of the people in Xiangxi also illuminate the whole crucian carp village.

When Liu Xing saw this lively scene on the roadbed on a motorcycle, he almost fell off the motorcycle in surprise.

He originally thought that the Shili Banquet mentioned by Village Chief Tang was just an exaggerated name. How could he have thought that this... the grandeur of this damn thing, the scope of the banquet was really to reach Shili.

Because when you look far away, the roadbed that extends into the darkness is actually the people of Xiangxi.

These people are busy preparing dishes for the banquet with every twenty tables as a point.

And in the most central place, a blazing bonfire was burning, and many Miao boys and girls were singing and dancing happily. The pleasant atmosphere and the sultry grand scene. To be honest, it was Liu Xing’s never seen in his previous life. Have been.

Seeing Liu Ruyan and the leaders of the villages in western Hunan, including Chief Zhuang and Village Chief Tang, walked towards him with a smile, he quickly recovered and stopped the motorcycle, and then greeted him.

Zhu Xiaoxiao, who followed him, was nervous. "Brother Liu Xing! So many banquets, is it really just to entertain you alone?"

"That must be!" Gao Dazhuang raised his head as if it had a lot to do with him.

"I don't know, but it's impossible to entertain me alone, and there are other craftsmen who build bamboo bridges with me this time!" Liu Xing shook his head and smiled bitterly.

To be honest, he is very opposed to such extravagance.

After all, Xiangxi is not rich.

The ten-mile banquet looked generous, but I was afraid that many of the things from the people of Xiangxi were taken out.

Especially the big fat pigs to be slaughtered, as well as chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep, all of which have to be fed for several months in the countryside.

Especially the big fat pigs, they have never eaten feed in Xiangxi. They only eat wild vegetables and other coarse food. This is not a year, I am afraid that it will not be slaughtered.

But these people from Xiangxi, just because Liu Xing built a bamboo bridge for them, they all came out to entertain them.

With this enthusiasm and this pure and sincere intention, he really didn't know what to say for a while.

If something goes wrong in the construction of the bamboo bridge in the future, or the bamboo bridge cannot be built, I am afraid that he will really want to find a hole in it.

This is actually not what he wanted, because he felt a lot of pressure invisibly, and this pressure could even make him breathless.

If it were not for the confidence to build a bamboo bridge on the edge of the cliff, he really wanted to run away at this moment.

"Liu Xing, you are finally back!" Liu Ruyan's complaining words interrupted Liu Xing's thoughts. She gave Liu Xing a strange look, but there was a thick smile on Qiao's face: "I saw it. No, this is the ten-mile banquet prepared for you, is it grand enough?"

"Grand enough!" Liu Xing sighed.

Zhu Xiaoxiao and Gao Dazhuang on the side were also a little embarrassed.

The people of Xiangxi are so generous, I'm really afraid that there is no second one in the country.

"If it is grand enough, then come and get to know the people of the ten mile and eight townships in the west of Hunan, as well as the people of the seventy-two villages!" Liu Ruyan said, introducing the villagers who Liu Xing didn't know around him, and some people of high morals in the west of Hunan. .

Liu Xing knew most of these people before rebirth, and knew their past. After a smiley nod and greeted him, he didn't say much, and followed Liu Ruyan, and walked towards the location of the campfire. .

The reason why I didn't sit at the banquet for dinner in the first time was because many villages were not ready yet, and even some hurriedly did not even kill the big fat pigs.

Seeing that Liu Xing came, he only greeted him with a silly smile, but didn't expect the big fat pig to run away secretly under his carelessness.

Liu Xing wanted to remind him, but in the end he couldn't say it, because Liu Ruyan took him hand in hand and joined the campfire party.

Because he was the protagonist for the dinner party tonight, this addition was immediately spotted by many girls from Xiangxi.

There are many beautiful girls among these girls, they are not shy, singing and dancing around Liu Xing, and some even winking at Liu Xing.

This scene made Liu Xing extremely embarrassing, because even if he was a reborn person, he already had natural resistance to beautiful girls, but he couldn't resist this scene!

Luckily, Liu Ruyan saw Liu Xing's situation, and after couldn't help but smiled, she took Liu Xing to sit in a chair to rest.

But just after sitting down, several beautiful Miao girls brought fruit pastries. After smiling shyly at Liu Xing, they put the fruit pastries on the square wooden table beside them, and then smiled. Whispering and leaving.

"Liu Xing, how is the girl in Xiangxi? If you are fancy, just tell me, you can definitely get it back the next day!" Liu Ruyan said with a smile.

"Teacher Liu, don't make fun of me, I am only fifteen years old!" Liu Xinglian told Rao.

"What's wrong with fifteen? In Xiangxi, fifteen years old are the fathers of two children!" Liu Ruyan teased back.

"But I don't want to be like this. At least, I don't have to fall in love and get married until I am in my twenties!" Liu Xing knew Liu Ruyan was teasing him, and he didn't care about it at the moment. Poverty actually has something to do with early marriage and early childbirth, because fifteen or sixteen is the age to grow your body, and it is also the age to learn knowledge. If you are dragged down by marriage and children, then this generation will be over."

"I agree with this view!" Liu Ruyan peeled an orange and handed it to Liu Xing. There was no joking on Qiao's face: "It's just that the idea of ​​early marriage and early childbirth in Xiangxi has been deeply rooted. If you want to change it, I am afraid it will be very difficult."

"It won't be difficult to change. When everyone has money and wants to live a quality life, you will know what I mean!" Liu Xing replied with a smile. The reason why he said so, then It's because he remembered the opening of second or even third children decades later.

The reason for this is that with the development of society, after everyone is chasing a quality life, many people don't want to get married at all, let alone having children.

The DINK family came because of this.

Where did Liu Ruyan know Liu Xing’s thoughts, and was about to ask to understand. Suddenly, two bright spots appeared in the east sky. As these bright spots became larger, they turned out to be two helicopters. The plane flew towards them quickly.

Liu Xing also discovered this scene. He looked at Liu Ruyan in surprise: "Your father is on this helicopter, right?"

"No, absolutely not. My father is very frugal. He will never take a helicopter when he comes to Xiangxi. Besides, he has been busy in Xiangnan Province for the past two weeks. He is very close to Xiangxi, so he can't come by helicopter!" Liu Ru Yan shook his head, with doubts on Qiao's face.

"Then this helicopter is here?" Liu Xing felt something wrong. After looking at Liu Ruyan, he quickly got up and walked towards the open space where the helicopter was going to park.

Liu Ruyan took out his mobile phone and dialed his father's number. After confirming that the person on the helicopter was not the person sent by his father, he quickly followed Liu Xing with the leaders of Clan Chief Zhuang, Village Chief Tang and other Xiangxi leaders.
