Chapter 210 Good luck

For two consecutive days, the villagers enthusiastically devoted themselves to the great cause of transporting watermelons and transported all the watermelons back to the village. Matsuda Akio happened to arrange someone to come and weigh the watermelons and transport it to the town. The villagers naturally took another job. Canghai was naturally not interested in the matter of making dozens of dollars in transportation every time. He squatted in the village every day and watched the people weigh them, waiting for the watermelons to be transported and then completely relaxed.

"We ordinary people, I am so happy today... We ordinary people, I am so happy today..." Cang Hai hummed a little song with a smile, reached out and lifted the lid of the pot, waited for a burst of heat to dissipate, picked up a edamame, put it in his mouth, and pulled it gently, and the edamame took out of the shell, and chewed it gently with the strong five-spice edamame grains and spread it in his mouth.

Fresh edamame freshly picked from the field, with a few star anise peppercorns, just add salt to clean water and make a delicious side dish.

"Delicious! Prepare to put it in the plate." Cang Hai stood the lid next to the chimney, waved his hand in the air, and felt that he had touched the plate in his hand, and smiled and put out the cooked edamames in the pot.

After putting the edamames, Cang Hai turned around and found that it was Shi Wei who handed the plate to him, so he asked, "Where is this boy Ping'an? He's almost eaten? Where have you gone?"

Shi Wei smiled and said, "With Shi Jie, Yan Li took Tietou and Tietou to catch the insects."

"Catch the bug?" Cang Hai laughed twice after hearing this: "Can they distinguish male and female?"

Cang Hai believed that Shi Jie could not recognize the male and female crickets. This boy was completely a noble man with a temperament that could not be held back and could not be held with his shoulders. He could not even distinguish between leeks and wheat. He hoped that he could distinguish the male and female crickets. No matter how he looked at it, he felt that it was unreliable.

Ping'an grew up in the village since he was a child, but he is good at doing farm work, but he is a cricket? Canghai felt that Tiedou was better than him.

Shi Wei looked at the dishes on the table and said to Canghai: "It's enough, there are five or six dishes, there are not many people here today."

Cang Hai glanced at the dishes on the table: "It's better to cook eggplant. Anyway, I've picked it. If I can't eat it, I can pour it for the pig."

Shi Wei said, "Okay, you can burn it."

Lu Shu is standing next to Canghai now. It’s not that she doesn’t want to help, but every time Lu Shu is about to help, she often helps more and more. Now she can only stay away from the stove and watch Canghai and Shi Wei cooperate in tacitly in the kitchen like two precise gears.

At this time, Lu Shu felt that she was completely unnecessary in the kitchen.

Just as Lu Shu was thinking about it, Shi Wei had already picked up the washed eggplant with one knife and put it on the chopping board, and cut it rhythmically.

"Is such a big piece OK?" Shi Wei cut a few pieces and looked up and asked Cang Hai.

Cang Hai took a look and nodded, and gave Shi Wei a thumbs up: "It's great!"

After saying that, Canghai walked to the stove door and added some firewood to the stove. When he returned to the table, he reached out to test the temperature in the pot. He felt that it was almost hot enough, so he picked up the oil pot and opened the table to pour oil into the pot.

"Your brother is back tomorrow morning. Are you ready?" Cang Hai held a fried spoon in his hand and scooped the oil in the pot from time to time and poured it on the edge of the pot. His movements were very skillful, and the racking was like a chef.

Shi Wei said casually: "He has something to clean up. When he came, there were only two people. When he went back, he had so many things. What did you say is not good to bring, and he had to bring some lobsters."

"If you like to eat, let them bring them. Anyway, there are a lot of shrimp here!" At this point, Canghai turned to Lu Shu and said, "Lu Shu, bring some lobsters away when you go back."

Lu Shu said, "How can I take it? I'm taking the high-speed train and not driving. I won't take the live lobsters. Before leaving, you can make some. Then I'll eat and pass the time in the car."

Cang Hai thought for a while and said, "It's up to you, I'll have to go to the Magic City next month. Then I'll bring some lobsters and crabs, and not only give them to you, but also to your teacher and godmother's house..."

Lu Shu said: "You are so nice to your teacher and godmother. Now, I guess not many of your own children have done better than you."

"I was taken care of by them in the past, and this little thing is nothing. The junior sister is still young. Although she is in her twenties, she just wants to play. As for Qi Yue, she is even more of a young lady's temperament. It's difficult to manage herself well, and she lives heartless all day long. She can't even think of others!"

After Cang Hai finished speaking, he picked up the chopping board and swept the eggplant on the chopping board into the pan, and quickly stir-fry it. After a while, the smell of eggplant dissipated into the kitchen air.

While working hard, Xu Sheng's voice sounded from outside: "Oh, the craftsmanship is good, it's quite delicious!"

The three people in the kitchen turned their heads and found that Xu Sheng and Qu Guowei were walking in shoulder to shoulder. Xu Sheng was holding a pottery jar in his hand. As soon as he looked at this thing, no one in the village knew what the jar was for now, it was definitely a bug. Moreover, looking at the two old men, the bugs in the jar were obviously very satisfied with the two.

"Is this a good worm caught?" Shi Wei asked with a smile.

"I said, "Young master, don't be as ignorant as this kid. We should use it here. We got a good insect this morning." Xu Sheng said as he showed off, he lifted up the clay pot lid in his hand, sent it to Shi Wei for a walk, and then handed it to Lu Shu.

Cang Hai asked strangely: "I said to Mr. Xu, why didn't you turn to me after you have been walking around?"

"You kid stands in front of the pot with oil stars everywhere. What if I hurt my insect?" Xu Sheng continued to hold the pottery jar and let Lu Shu look at the new insect in his jar.

For the two old men, Lu Shu is a fellow fellow, and Shi Wei is just a look at it. As for Canghai, the two old men, who define Canghai as a negative example of being ignorant and not loving traditional culture, such a good insect will naturally not be shown to Canghai.

"The best crab shell green, there is nothing to choose from whether it is a big or a tooth," Lu Shu observed for a while and said to Xu Sheng.

Lu Shu's words seemed to have scratched Xu Sheng's itchy spot. The old man's eyes were almost gone, and the few strands of hair on his head suddenly seemed energetic.

Xu Sheng said: "What you can see is already good, but you didn't notice this memorization!".

The old man was about to continue showing off to Lu Shu when he suddenly heard footsteps coming from outside.

"We're back, sister, I've got a good harvest today! There was a bug that was very big..." Shi Jie rushed into the kitchen with a trot.

As soon as he entered the kitchen, he saw Xu Sheng and Qu Guowei also present, Shi Jie immediately raised the dozen small bamboo cages in his left hand and said to the two experts who were playing with insects: "The two are here, so let's see how these insects are!"

These small cages were helped by Li Licheng. When he saw Shi Jie had something to do and caught insects, he twisted more than ten small cages for him. Although Li Licheng woven casually, they were also very exquisite. Whether it was the selection of bamboo strips or the weaving techniques, Li Licheng's extraordinary skills could be seen.

Looking at the string of cages in Shi Jie's hand, Qu Guowei and Xu Sheng didn't know what to say, but the two old men were not good at rejecting Shi Jie like this. Moreover, the two old men were a little bit like being a teacher on this, thinking about cultivating more insect friends and spreading traditional culture.

With this idea, the two old men carefully handed the pot on their hands to Lu Shu and took a string of small cages from Shi Jie's hand.

"The cage is good. When Brother Li finishes his work, I will ask him to help weave a few cages of grasshopper cages. Even if he is placed in the capital, he will take advantage of this skill..." Xu Sheng did not do anything, so he praised the cage first.

Li Licheng's craftsmanship is naturally needless to say. For Xu Sheng, who loves to play and pays attention to playing, not only plays the bugs, but also uses them with particularity. You can't just pack something casually. In the eyes of old capitalists like Xu Sheng, this is not called play at all. If you can't play, you're just fiddling around!

"This doesn't work, this is not a cricket, it's a cucumber!"

Seeing the big insect in the first cage, Qu Guowei put it aside.

Xu Sheng also nodded: "This is a cricket, but it is just a mother. If you look closely, it does not have two huge teeth..."

Canghai was so happy after hearing this.

Just when Cang Hai was trying to make fun of Shi Jie and other boys, Qu Guowei suddenly made a sound of hey.

"Old Xu, come and see this one, it's great!" Qu Guowei picked up the cage in his hand and said to Xu Sheng.

Xu Sheng took it, put the cage in front of him and looked left and right, nodding and said, "It's indeed good. He is of medium and superior quality, and he is still a good insect!"

"Hey, this one is not bad, it's slightly better than the one just now." Qu Guowei discovered the second good insect.

"This is a good thing!" Xu Sheng suddenly raised his voice.

The old man's throat scared everyone in the kitchen, which made Cang Hai almost throw away the fried spoon in his hand. What's even more exaggerated was Tietou. He trembled with his hands and threw a pear in his hand to the ground. Then Tietou looked at Xu Sheng with a look of mental illness. Then he silently put the pear he picked up again in his mouth and went to the kiln. It was obvious that Tietou didn't want to stay with this mental illness old man.

"I said you won't be there!" Canghai was so amused and cried by the old man. He thought to himself: No matter how good the insect is, don't come so suddenly. It doesn't matter if we are young. Don't make any problems with yourself.

"What a good insect!" Qu Guowei looked at the small bamboo cage in Xu Sheng's hand.

The two of them ignored Canghai at all, and their eyes were as if a pair of perverts were staring at the peerless beauty. The two old eyes made Canghai feel a little furious.

When Shi Jie heard the good insect, he immediately asked happily: "It's really a good insect? How much can this be sold if you just take it out?"

Shi Jie's words immediately stunned the two old men.

"Sell money?"

Shi Jie was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and came to his senses and opened his mouth and said, "Why should I catch it if I don't sell it? Oh, why are you doing it with it?"

"If you sell me, I will give you 20,000 yuan. Although it is not as good as the price given by the capital, you have to know that the price in the capital and here is impossible. And you have to find such a bug to sell it..." Xu Sheng hugged the cage with both hands, as if he was afraid that someone would rob him.

When Shi Jie heard about 20,000 yuan, he lit his head like a chicken pecking at rice before the old man finished speaking, and kept saying, "Okay, okay, okay!"

After catching a little insect and selling it for 20,000 yuan, Shi Jie seemed to be full of strength all over his body, and he wanted to go out to catch ten or eight more under the scorching sun.

When Xu Sheng heard his offer, Shi Jie agreed, he immediately ran to Xiaochangzi and turned around and ran away. He didn't know how an old man could have such a fast speed. Canghai only felt that the shadow in the corner of his eyes floated, and the old man disappeared in an instant.

Cang Hai felt his eyes blurred, and Xu Sheng stood in front of Shi Jie again, holding two stacks of banknotes in his hand and stuffed them into Shi Jie's hand.

"You two have been looking for so many people with their heads stretched out for several days, but they are not as good as a rookie who can find an hour?" Cang Hai felt that he had to laugh at these two old men.

"What do you know? Be honest with your meal. Such insects are unavailable!" Xu Sheng held the cage like a treasure, and said to Shi Jie: "Hurry up, see if the number is right!"

"No need to order!" As he said that, Shi Jie turned around and put the money in Yan Li's hands.

"Can you meet and cannot be found? Qu Bo caught one before, but now you have another one. It's too bad to meet and cannot be found. This is what I think I can fight two insects first. Let's see which one is to meet and cannot be found today!" Cang Hai said.

Xu Sheng was displeased when he heard this: "No, we want to take the insects back and kill all directions. It is obviously two good insects, so why should we fight in the middle first!"
