Chapter 278
"Wenxu, don't you go over and take a look?" Mr. Chi held the chess piece in his hand and frowned. After thinking for a long time, he still couldn't figure out where to make the next step. He casually said to Wenxu.
Wen Xu is in a good mood now. Seeing that the game of chess is about to win, the smile on his face cannot be concealed. Looking at the board, he said happily: "What's the hurry? Your game of chess is not far from destruction. I will go to the mill to see how they are doing. Now, don't worry, don't worry!"
As he said that, Wen Xu reached out and picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip of water, and after drinking, he deliberately made a loud noise. This made Mr. Chi roll his eyes.
At this time, Teacher Ma and Zhao Xiaoyue were watching the big brown donkey grinding flour in the mill, and white flour kept falling from the mill. The two of them stepped forward and swept the arrows falling into the mortar together.
Teacher Ma asked, "Xiaoyue, are you really going to open a bakery? Can this thing be made in an environment like Mingzhu? It is cheaper and loser, and no one buys it when it is expensive?"
When he heard Zhao Xiaoyue say that he was going to open a bakery at the city entrance of Mingzhu, Teacher Ma felt that the business was a bit lingering, so he discussed this matter with Zhao Xiaoyue while doing work.
Zhao Xiaoyue said: "The bread made by my master is very delicious. Not only do I like it, but my colleagues say they like it as long as they have eaten it. Even a few foreigners in our company praised it. I think such bread will definitely not be out of the way!"
With Zhao Xiaoyue's temperament, she will do it whenever she thinks about it. No matter how deep you want her to conduct research, it is something that you don't have to think about. In her mind, let alone doing business, even life is quite simple.
She never thought about how much money she wanted to make with bread. She just thought that some people would like such delicious bread. Some people liked it, that it was a sales outlet. In addition, she liked it, so she decided to open this bakery. To be honest, her entrepreneurship was mainly because she wanted to eat such delicious bread every day. The second was promotion and finally made money.
When Teacher Ma heard the child say this, he couldn't help but sigh. For Teacher Ma's generation, many times, when starting a business, it is a bit too risky to think about winning or losing.
Although he thought so in his heart, Teacher Ma did not show it, and he did not continue to persuade him indirectly. Now that he has said so much, it seems that he is very confusing.
"How did you meet Wen Xu? In the same company?"
Zhao Xiaoyue nodded and said, "As soon as I graduated and joined the company, I was assigned to study under my master. The master is very powerful. At that time, many masters and doctors who entered the company were not convinced by the master. However, when it was time to solve the problem, the things in the book could not help much, and then the master's level was revealed..."
When someone asked how the two met, Zhao Xiaoyue made a big splash, and they all said how great Wen Xu was. Teacher Ma knew that this little girl’s admiration for Wen Xu came from the bottom of her heart.
"careful!"
When Teacher Ma saw that the little girl had stopped, and the big brown donkey had now stood behind Zhao Xiaoyue, he couldn't help but remind him.
Zhao Xiaoyue was startled by Teacher Ma's words, subconsciously jumped to the door, and then asked Teacher Ma in a little frightened state: "What's wrong, what's wrong?"
Teacher Ma reached out and pointed to the big brown donkey: "This donkey has a bad temperament. Except for its warm owner, everyone else in the village will sip everyone when they see him. It is not very good at ordinary times, but when it is asked to work, it has a very bad temper. I almost walked behind you just now. If I don't remind you, I might as well give you a moment."
"The donkey still bites people?" Zhao Xiaoyue asked in surprise.
Teacher Ma said, "That's natural. If you are forced into a hurry, even pigs will bite people. Don't mention donkeys! Okay, just follow it when you sweep the noodles, don't be too close. You will even stumble when you feel someone is behind it!"
Hearing Teacher Ma say this, Zhao Xiaoyue felt that the one who was grinding in front of her was not a donkey, but a bad-tempered demon. However, when Zhao Xiaoyue's eyes fell on the big brown donkey, she was not willing to believe that the "honest" brown donkey in front of her would be a bad-tempered one.
Waiting for this round of flour to be ground, there was almost no flour in the hanging bucket. At this time, Teacher Ma said, "Xiaoyue, you are here to grind this little. I'll call Wen Xu to come and have a look. After grinding it so many times, can't it be done?"
As he said that, Teacher Ma raised his foot out of the mill and went home to call Wen Xu.
At this time, Zhao Xiaoyue looked at the big brown donkey and said to the donkey: "Hey, donkey? Your temper is not so bad, don't bite me, can I reach out and touch your ears?"
After saying that, Zhao Xiaoyue stretched out her hand to the big brown donkey. Before her hand could reach the donkey's ears, the big brown donkey immediately opened its mouth and bit Zhao Xiaoyue. Fortunately, Zhao Xiaoyue was always on guard and her hands were shrinking quickly. If it weren't for it, she would have been hit hard.
Although he retracted his hand, Zhao Xiaoyue was still shocked and sweated all over her hair and said with lingering fear: "You are really sinister, although you want to attack me! I tell you that this is wrong, and biting is a shameful thing..."
Zhao Xiaoyue and the big brown donkey have a reason.
Wen Xu walked to the door and heard Zhao Xiaoyue muttering in her mouth, and asked casually: "What are you doing?"
"I was talking to the big brown donkey, I almost got bitten by it just now."
Wen Xu almost didn't think much when he heard this, and said casually: "Don't pay attention to it. This thing is in a bad mood when working. He has a good temper at ordinary times, at least he won't bite people randomly! When it works, you have to be careful. At this time, no one will bite except me!"
As he said that, Wen Xu came to the next to the mill, reached out and grabbed a handful of noodles on the surface and put it in the palm of his hand, and gently crushed it with a finger.
I felt that the first batch of grinding was almost done, so I nodded and said, "This batch is ready, pretend to be one-third, and then continue to grind the rest!"
"Still it gets worse?" Zhao Xiaoyue looked at the sky outside: "It's a little dark."
"It's going to rain. You'll know when you're living in the habits. It's almost this point every day. There's a rain here in Wenjia Village on time." Speaking of this, Wen Xu reached out and pointed the watch on his wrist: "It's only five o'clock now, and the rest will be about to grind for an hour and a half. Grind it quickly, don't be too slow! It's so easy to make bread."
After saying that, Wen Xu turned around and left the mill.
Teacher Ma looked at Wen Xu's back and said, "Stop playing chess with the old man, let him choose the dishes in the kitchen, and I will go back and cook later!"
"I understand, who is playing chess now? I'll make some vegetables and prepare for dinner." Wen Xu continued to walk without looking back.
The two of them were kept in the mill to continue grinding noodles, Wen Xu picked the vegetables and went home to cook. When he arrived at the kitchen, the raindrops as big as beans outside immediately fell from the sky, and the temperature outside immediately became cold.
After stir-frying a few dishes, I also steamed the crabs I caught in the afternoon. When everything was ready, the rain outside almost stopped, and of course it became dark.
He took the food back into the house, and Wenxu set out again to the Mill to ask Zhao Xiaoyue for dinner.
As soon as I walked to the entrance of the village, I saw a woman passing by sneakily. After taking a look, Wen Xu knew that this was not from his village, and it seemed that she was even more impossible to be here to stay.
So Wen Xu called her out loud: "That sister, what are you doing in our village?"
"I'm looking for someone!"
Hearing Wen Xu call him, the woman stopped and turned to squeeze out a smile from her face, pretending to be very calm and replied to Wen Xu.
"Looking for someone? Who are you looking for?" Wen Xu asked.
"I said, you young man, your Wenjia Village is a tiger. I have to go through political review when I come in? Besides, who can I tell you if I'm going to ask?" The woman heard Wen Xu ask endlessly, so she began to criticize Wen Xu.
Wen Xu smiled and said, "I just got thieves in the village, so I'm more careful."
Before Wen Xu finished speaking, the woman's face changed and she said angrily: "Do you think I am a thief? I'll tell you the young man, be careful when speaking, don't be thief!"
The woman said this loudly, with a little quarrel.
Speaking so loudly, it was in the quiet village, which naturally spread far and soon attracted onlookers.
"I didn't say you were a thief, I just wanted to ask what you were here for!" Wen Xu saw that she was a little sneaky, so he naturally had to ask clearly.
"That's what you mean. I'm asking for help and tell you, the young man, who are you a policeman..."
Before the woman could finish her words, someone recognized the woman: "Sister Zhang?"
The woman Wen Li turned her head and looked at it. She was stunned for a while before she said uncertainly: "Miss from Qian family?" Seeing the old woman coming from opposite her nodded, the woman immediately smiled.
Wen Xu saw that the person he was either someone else or the fourth sister-in-law, or Wen Shijie's wife, so he said, "Isn't it enough if you had said you came to find the fourth sister-in-law?"
"Young man, who is interested in paying attention to you when you speak so hard!" The woman named Zhang glanced at Wen Xu with her eyes, then walked to Sister Qian and began to say hello.
Sister Qian seemed to be stunned by the woman's enthusiasm. After she came to her senses, she took the person to her home.
Wen Xu saw that he was really looking for someone here, so he continued to walk. However, before he could walk about ten meters, he heard someone on the roadside muttering: "Why is this person coming?"
"Do you know this person?" Wen Xu saw that the person who was talking was Guangli's wife Zheng Qingqing, and heard something strange in her words, so he opened his mouth and asked.
After Zheng Qingqing looked at the woman and Aunt Qian entered the yard, she said to Wen Xu: "This woman is a member of the Jesus Church. There are many people under her, and she will hold activities such as singing scriptures regularly."
After hearing Zheng Qingqing say this, Wen Xu felt that this was a normal religious activity. It was nothing strange. Our domestic policy is religious freedom, and those who believe in religion or not depend on their own preferences. Moreover, Wen Xu knew that Christianity has a market in the rural areas of Linjiang Province, and there were many people who believed in this. It was nothing wrong to find a spiritual sustenance. It was better to get together to gamble money if you had something to do.
"It's good to have a belief," Wen Xu said casually.
Zheng Qingqing curled his lips: "What kind of beliefs? It's almost the same for cheating money. This old woman relies on this thing to make money. All three sons in the family built the General Building!"
"Oh, is this happening?"
Wenxu couldn't help but frown when he heard this. When he was in his hometown, he had come into contact with the so-called people who respected Jesus. Every Sunday, he would gather together and sit together to read something similar to the scriptures and sing songs. Wenxu has always thought it was normal and good. Although most of the people who believe are women who are fifty years old, this faith does not distinguish between men, women, and young.
Zheng Qingqing said, "That's right! You know that believing in this thing is not for nothing. You have to pay 200 yuan per season. Some old women are reluctant to eat and wear, but paying this money is so active. Think about it, if you have 200 people per person, you have 1 or 200 people under your command, how much is it? This old woman has more than one or two hundred people under her command, at least 500 people!"
"How did you know?" Wen Xu asked.
Zheng Qingqing curled his lips: "This old lady wants to pull my mother in. When my mother heard that she wanted to pay the money, she didn't earn it. She came back and told me."
