304. The Educated Youth and the Peasant Girl 3

The days of coming to the countryside are almost the same. Apart from going to work, I just chat with the people in the village. From the mouth of the villagers, Zhou Zekai knows that this Pinghua village is really poor. There is only one sewing machine in this village, and it is all The villagers bought it together, and when they used it, the villagers used it together. Otherwise, without this thing, the villagers would be slower to make clothes. There are several nearby villages that are poorer than Pinghua Village, and they would come to borrow sewing machines. , It’s just that every time after borrowing, I have to give some food to the villagers.

As for the bicycle that Zhou Zekai asked about... Well, sorry, there is absolutely no such thing!

Bicycles are rare in the city these days, let alone in this small mountain village? A sewing machine has already made the villagers superior to those in the surrounding villages, and a bicycle costs two hundred yuan! Their small village can't afford to save this money at all, and the roads in this village are so poor, how can they be suitable for riding such expensive things! If it breaks, you will be so distressed!

"Xiaosheng, when you were in the city, did you ever ride a bicycle? How is that thing? I heard that people can walk as if they are flying..."

The old people in the village chatted with Zhou Zekai, curiously asked about the outside world, and the other villagers listened with their ears open. In fact, they all knew that these city people looked down on them, and those educated youths had their eyes on top of their heads. Comrade Zhou didn't dislike the villagers, so many times, the villagers would secretly give Zhou Zekai some specialties from the family, and they liked to listen to the stories about the city told by Zhou Zekai.

After all, that is a world they have never seen before, even if they have never been there, it is always possible to learn a lot, right?

They also don't want their descendants to live in such a small valley forever, they expect their descendants to have a better and more perfect future!

"Grandpa Zhang, that's all fake. How can anyone be like flying?" Zhou Zekai laughed. If it's a sports bike, it's really possible to break through the limit, but like today's bikes, coupled with that kind of road, Zhou Zekai really thinks Not to mention flying, it's faster than people, and it's terribly tricky.

But Zhou Zekai didn't say that when facing the eyes of the villagers, but said.

"Riding a bicycle feels two or three times faster than walking. Two or three times means that a person walks one mile, but a bicycle can ride two or three miles, depending on whether the rider has Strength, the one who has to use two feet to push the wheel."

Telling everyone about the bicycle made the nearby villagers very curious. Yang Yuehua, who came to listen to the other party's talk after dinner, was also very curious. She really felt that the man in front of her was really amazing! He knows so many things! As if... as if there was nothing he didn't know...

Seeing Zhou Zekai in a daze, she suddenly realized that the man was looking at her, causing Yang Yuehua to immediately lower her head, her face was a little hot, she felt that this person was completely different from those people in the village...

"Oh, so fast..."

The surrounding villagers were shocked, it was too fast to be able to travel from one mile to two miles! At present, the traffic generally relies on walking, and the communication basically relies on shouting. Knowing that there is such a novelty, the villagers are curious and looking forward to it, thinking that if one day they can ride this thing called a 'bicycle', it will be fine. .

Soon, everyone dispersed again, and it was time to go to work again. Zhou Zekai was used to this kind of work, and he didn't feel tired. He bent down with a sickle, and gently let go of the egg in his hand with one hand. He started laughing, but he didn't expect that this girl is quite funny, so many people dare to stuff eggs for themselves, and they are not afraid that they will not answer.

But since it was someone's kindness, Zhou Zekai naturally accepted it, put it in his pocket, and planned to eat it when he got home.

It was another afternoon of work. Zhou Zekai, who had already ranked first in work points, had been accepted by the villagers in less than half a month after entering the village. At the same time, he was completely rejected by the educated youths. No educated youth wanted to Those who talked to Zhou Zekai, in their hearts, this person betrayed their organization.

After eating the porridge, Zhou Zekai didn't plan to go home today. After asking the villagers where the village chief's house was, he walked towards the village chief's house alone. He had a small plan to make a fortune, wasn't it just a bicycle? As a person with strong hands-on ability, Zhou Zekai is completely familiar with this thing. You know, Zhou Zekai has modified the racing car himself. If he can't get the bicycle out, he should really jump off the building...

On the way, Zhou Zekai ate the eggs that Yang Yuehua gave during the day, thinking about the conditions of the Yang family, he didn't know how, she gave herself an egg a day, and she didn't know if she ate it.

With this in mind, Zhou Zekai came to the door of Yang's house. Although there was no one at the door, he still stood outside and shouted.

"Is Village Chief Yang here?"

After a sound, a middle-aged woman who looked a little like Yang Yuehua came out from inside. When she saw him, she immediately smiled.

"Are you Comrade Zhou? Come in, Lao Yang will be back in a while, you sit and wait for him, have you eaten yet?"

Mother Yang entertained Zhou Zekai. She was very enthusiastic. She had heard her husband praise Zhou Zekai several times before. Thinking about her daughter's lifelong event, Mother Yang welcomed Zhou Zekai very much.

"No need for Auntie, I've already had dinner, I have something to ask Village Chief Yang, can I wait for him here?"

Zhou Zekai greeted Yang's mother politely, and then saw Yang's mother nodding with a smile.

"Yes, why not? You just wait in the room, I'll get you some water..."

Seeing the white and polite appearance of this child, Yang's mother liked it more and more. She only felt that if her daughter married such a person, she would be very satisfied. I just hope that Zhou Zekai can drink happily.

A large bowl of brown sugar water was placed in front of Zhou Zekai, and Zhou Zekai thanked Yang's mother very much. He also knew that in the countryside, this brown sugar was an expensive item.

"Auntie, I'm really sorry to trouble you. I don't have anything to give you. This is a small gift I bought before I went to the countryside. I give it to you. I hope you like it."

Zhou Zekai took out a small box that he folded himself. Inside was an embroidered silk scarf, which Zhou Zekai bought for his mother before he went to the countryside. Later, when he saw his mother crying so sad, he was afraid that it would be even more sad for her. So I brought it down, and it came in handy right now.

When Mother Yang heard this, she was taken aback. She didn't expect that she would just pour a glass of water for her, and they would give her a gift. It was a small gift bought in the city! This made Yang's mother even more cautious and did not dare to pick it up.

"No, Comrade Zhou, I accept your wish, but you can keep this gift yourself. I can't accept it."

People in the village are more down-to-earth, and Mother Yang really doesn't think she should accept gifts from others.

"Auntie, just accept it. I have been taken care of by Village Chief Yang since I went to the countryside, and I will rely on Village Chief Yang a lot in the future. If you don't accept me, I will not dare to look for Village Chief Yang again... ..."

Zhou Zekai's thinking was much faster than the women in the village. What he said at the moment was hard to refuse, so he directly put the thing in Yang's mother's hands. He believed that Yang's mother would let the silk scarf see light.

This ribbon was bought by Zhou Zekai for one yuan, which is considered very expensive. It can be said that it is the only one in the city, let alone in the village. But Mother Yang can only accept the things and decides to buy the ribbon. After her husband comes back, she must take good care of this young child. Although she doesn't know what this gift is, it feels soft to the touch, and it seems to be something from a woman's home.

After waiting for a while, under the urging of Yang's mother, Zhou Zekai drank the brown sugar water, and then came the village chief Yang and Yang Yuehua who followed him.

"Comrade Zhou? Why are you here?"

Village Chief Yang was very excited when he saw Zhou Zekai, and he also had a smile on his face. Obviously, he had a good impression of Zhou Zekai.

"Mr. Yang, it's like this. I have some things I want to discuss with you."

Zhou Zekai thought about his plan to make bicycles. No matter how long he has been working on it, as long as he makes one, it will be worth a lot of money if he sells it...

"What kind of village chief? Just call him Uncle Yang, sit down and talk."

There are rules in the village, women are not allowed to stand aside when men are talking, so Mother Yang took her daughter to the back room quickly, leaving room for Village Chief Yang and Zhou Zekai.

"It's Uncle Yang like this. I want to ask, is there anything that makes iron in our village? I want to make something myself."

It is too strange to say that he can make a bicycle now, Zhou Zekai plans to wait until the bicycle is almost finished.

"Iron making? What do you use this for? But... there is a big iron company in our village, Lao Niu's. If you need it, I can take you there to have a look."

Knowing that people in the city have a lot of ideas, Uncle Yang found something wrong after asking, so he didn't ask any more questions.

"Then thank you, Uncle Yang. I want to go and have a look and make something. In fact, I live alone in the back mountain and I am a little scared. Why don't I make some weapons to protect myself."

This was Zhou Zekai's reason. As soon as he said this, Village Chief Yang understood and said it quickly.

"Why don't you bother, it's really remote where you live, how about living in my house? There are also two vacant houses on my side, so I promise it won't affect you."

This is to keep Zhou Zekai under their noses, and save others from picking the fruit in advance. Village Chief Yang is smiling. Thinking of his daughter's shy appearance these days, he knows that Zhou Zekai has his eyes on him.

Zhou Zekai was speechless when he heard this, but he still explained.

"Uncle Yang, it's really unnecessary. If I live here, the people who came with me will gossip again. I don't want to cause trouble for you, Uncle Yang. Don't worry, I can protect myself."

Zhou Zekai's understanding made Village Chief Yang appreciate Zhou Zekai even more. While admiring him, he also felt that the other party must become his son-in-law!

As for the room, Mother Yang took out the gift from Zhou Zekai and planned to have a look with her daughter...
