Chapter 53 Gu Shan Bamboo (Please Read Later)
That's when I go to bed at night.
Zhou Xiaoying was very excited.
"Duoyu, do you think my second sister-in-law will hate us to death if she loses so much?"
"Maybe."
However, Li Duoyu felt that after the second sister-in-law lost money, the second brother should be the most unlucky.
It's already ten o'clock in the evening.
The second sister-in-law was still chattering and scolding the second brother.
"It's not that you're stupid. I have two gold coins in my hand on that plate. You just need to touch five of them for me, and I will win gold."
"There is also the Golden Bird with many fishes. I listened to seven cards, but I couldn't play any of them."
The second brother, Li Yaoguo, remained silent and did not want to say a word in reply to her, a woman who was both dishonest and free-spirited.
Not long after.
"How did you know."
Zhou Xiaoying looked at Li Duoyu with a puzzled look on her face. She was pregnant for the first time and didn't understand at all. She even asked her mother-in-law about this and found out that she was breastfeeding early. She didn't expect Li Duoyu to understand?
"Ahem, Holly told me."
"Why does this person tell you everything?"
Li Duoyu nodded solemnly: "Scholars like to shake off their burdens. He also told me that when encountering this kind of situation."
Li Duoyu lay on the bed and said, "I may have to leave the island tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, but I may not be able to come back in time. If I don't come back, you will have dinner with your parents."
"Where are you going this time?" Zhou Xiaoying asked.
"I plan to go to Gushan to buy some moso bamboo and build a fishing raft near the kelp culture raft so that I can have a place to rest while working at sea."
"Then you have to pay attention to safety when you go out."
The next day, Dandan Island Pier.
Chen Wenchao was waiting there with his bag on his back. When he saw Li Duoyu, he immediately came forward to say hello.
Li Duoyu originally wanted to go to Gushan to buy bamboo alone, but considering that he would have to walk a mountainous road and might have to stay overnight, multiple people would have to take care of him.
After all, the security of this era.
It's really not that good.
The children from Uncle Hu's house next door have been selling cooked fish in other places all year round, and they are often robbed by local gangsters.
Li Duoyu remembers that during the Chinese New Year in their family, a group of brothers and sisters actually discussed together how to prevent being beaten too hard by gangsters.
The two took the island's passenger ship to Qingkou Pier, and then boarded the bus to Rongcheng.
After getting on the bus, Li Duoyu handed the master a cigarette: "Master, call us when we reach the intersection of Dazhu Village."
Almost an hour later.
The bus master shouted: "We have arrived at Dazhu Village."
So Li Duoyu and Chen Wenchao got out of the car and saw a wooden sign on the side of the road with the three characters "Dazhu Village" painted on it.
There is also a line below: It is still 30 miles to Dazhu Village.
Dazhu Village is on Gushan Mountain.
Li Duoyu remembers that the village is located at a relatively high altitude, and the moso bamboo grown there is also very good. They are long and thick, and are very suitable for making fishing rafts.
It can also be inserted on the beach to grow oysters, or hang kelp and seaweed to dry.
But there is no shuttle bus in Dazhu Village. If you want to go to their village, if you don't bring your own transportation, you can only walk in.
The winding dirt road,
There are trees on both sides.
Walking on this road feels completely different from the island.
You can see the sky when you look up from the island.
The view is very broad.
Don't worry about wild beasts or anything like that.
But the road in the mountain village is full of trees, and there are dense weeds on both sides. From time to time, various swishing sounds are made, and one does not know what is in the grass.
Chen Wenchao, who was a little scared, was walking in the middle of the road. He picked up a bamboo stick in his hand and was on guard, for fear that something would suddenly come out of the grass.
Li Duoyu, on the other hand, observed the dirt road. There were traces of trucks running over it, which proved that there were trucks in this village.
This is much easier to handle.
What he fears most is that there are no trucks in Dazhu Village. Then, after buying the bamboo, he will have to call a truck to pull the bamboo.
The two of them walked for about ten miles.
Li Duoyu heard the sound of a truck coming from behind, followed by two horns.
A four-wheel agricultural truck used to pull goods stopped beside them, and a master in blue cloth greeted them.
"Folks, where are you going?"
Li Duoyu replied: "Let's go to Dazhu Village."
The master in blue cloth smiled and replied: "You are so lucky to meet me. I am from Dazhu Village. Come up here and I will take you into the village."
After climbing into the car, Li Duoyu smelled the smell of smoke and quickly took out a cigarette and handed it to the master.
The master chatted while driving: "You come to our Dazhu Village to buy moso bamboo, right?"
"how do you know?"
Li Duoyu deliberately acted a little surprised.
The master said proudly: "Then you have come to the right place. Our village has nothing but moso bamboo. Many house builders say that the scaffolding made of moso bamboo in our village is particularly strong."
"Yes, yes, I came here because of its reputation."
Li Duoyu found that this master was quite talkative.
After chatting for a while, they learned that almost everyone in their village had the surname Ou, and his name was Ou Wusheng, and he was an agricultural vehicle driver in the production brigade.
After driving on the winding mountain road for about half an hour, Chen Wenchao, who was sitting in the passenger seat, had a look of pig liver color on his face.
He discovered something.
People who don’t get seasick don’t necessarily get motion sickness.
After the bus arrived at Dazhu Village, Chen Wenchao ran directly to the side of the road and vomited.
And after arriving in the village.
The driver told them that there was no ready-made bamboo in the village, it was all in the mountains. If they wanted to buy bamboo, they had to go to the brigade to spend money and let the announcer shout with a loudspeaker.
Li Duoyu took out a dollar on the spot and handed it to the agricultural vehicle master. "Master, we are not familiar with this place. Can you help us get in touch?"
After the driver accepted it, he took out fifty cents from his jacket pocket and gave it to Li Duoyu:
"We don't need so many. Our village radio broadcast is only 50 cents. You guys wait for me at the car first, and I'll go to the brigade to find the loudspeaker."
After taking two steps, the driver scratched his head and asked:
"By the way, I forgot to ask you, how many and how big do you want to buy? The larger ones here usually cost 30 cents, and the small ones 20 cents."
Li Duoyu replied: "The bigger the bamboo, the better. If there is enough bamboo, it can probably fill your agricultural vehicle."
"Understood."
While waiting for the notification, Chen Wenchao, who had come back to his senses, said: "Brother Yu, this mountain road is too scary. I have never vomited so badly when I encountered a level 8 wind at sea.
Li Duoyu smiled and said, "That's because you don't run much. If you run a few more times, you'll get used to it."
After hearing this.
Chen Wenchao's face turned pale on the spot: "We won't come here again in the future."
Li Duoyu nodded and said seriously: "Moso bamboo is quite important to us farmers. We may need to cooperate more often in the future."
Chen Wenchao:
"Notice from the brigade, notice from the brigade."
"Now at the head of the village, there is a boss who comes to buy moso bamboo. He wants bamboo that is more than one foot tall. He wants to buy a cart, and each bamboo is three cents. If there are villagers who want to sell, go and chop it down quickly."
After the radio shouted five times in a row.
Li Duoyu saw many villagers rushing into the bamboo forest carrying hatchets on their backs.

Note: When talking about a foot of bamboo, you use a soft meter ruler to circle the head of the bamboo. If it is 33.3 centimeters, it is a foot of moso bamboo.
