"How much do you want?"
"Fifty thousand." She looked serious, not joking.
The toads in the reservoir screamed loudly at night, "croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak, croak out out out."
Hearing her say that, I laughed.
This woman is indeed no ordinary person, and she is not comparable to Er Pengju.
Fifty thousand, if it were just in the village, she wouldn't be able to save so much money in ten years!
I am not angry, but appreciate her. She is very similar to me in this aspect. When I was shipping goods and working for the boss, I was like a lion and dared to die.
Of course, there has to be a degree of restraint. If she was like Jiang Yuan and asked me for one million, she would be stupid.
"I want fifty thousand, will you give it to me?"
I smiled and said, "Can I call you Ye Zi?"
She nodded.
"Okay, Ye Zi, I am Xiang Yun...I, Xiang Feng, have never been a stingy person. No matter whether I am a man or a woman, I will never let those who follow me suffer when it comes to money."
"You want fifty thousand, no problem, I can give it to you, but we agreed beforehand that this is the buyout price. Afterwards, everything in the tomb belongs to me alone, and you can't divide it."
"Then...how much are the things in the tomb worth?" she asked.
I said, how do I know? It might be worth one million, or it might be worth only a hundred yuan. Now I don’t even know what burial objects the tomb owner has. It’s just like buying a lottery ticket.
I didn't see it, but the girl Ye Zi had some ideas, and she had her own little plans in mind.
She said: "Let me think about it for a day and I will give you an answer tomorrow."
I nodded and said no problem, just go back and talk about it tomorrow.
The reservoir at the foot of Naitao Mountain was built in the 1970s. At that time, Nanping was vigorously developing water conservancy projects, such as the Dongxi Reservoir in Jianyang, the Mafu Reservoir in Ergou south of Zhumu Mountain, and the Wangtai Village. The Wangtai Reservoir you visited was built in that era.
Later, it was discovered that there were too many large and small reservoirs built, and some were completely unused, so they were gradually abandoned. Now the Mafu Reservoir is contracted to individuals and turned into a fishing park. The Wangtai Reservoir is basically no longer used. The one at the foot of Naitao Mountain in Tianjing Village The time of desolation is earlier.
However, since we are far away from living areas in the mountains, the water quality is not bad, not too clear, but not bad. Otherwise, the prodigal son and Er Pengju would not have been swimming in the water that day.
"Shh..."
"Don't make a sound..."
As I was walking, Ye Zi suddenly told me not to move where I was.
I saw her picking up a handful of grass from the ground and holding it in her hand, then turned off the flashlight, bent her waist, and slowly moved forward.
On a big rock beside the reservoir, there was a huge toad, maybe as big as a child's head.
I have never seen a toad like this. The toad is standing! The front legs are hanging in the air, facing us, and the cheeks are swollen.
Ye Zi walked silently, she clutched a handful of grass, slowly approached, and slowly stretched out her hand.
Attack suddenly!
high speed!
He grabbed it with just one slap!
The toad then croaked twice. Listening up close, the croak was much deeper than the frog's croak.
"Wow! Look! Look!"
"Get rich!"
Ye Zi grabbed the toad and showed it to me. She said excitedly: "I have never caught such a big one! This is too big!"
"Stay away from me!"
"Get it away! Don't slap it in my face. It's disgusting. Throw it away."
The toad's body was covered in fleshy lumps, which were sticky and made me feel sick just looking at them.
"Throw it away? I don't want to throw it away."
She took out a plastic bag from her back pocket, blew on it, put the big toad in it and said, "Such a big toad suit, if you can take it off completely, it will definitely sell for a lot of money."
"Is your hand okay?" I asked her.
"It's okay. I used straw as a cushion when I caught it. As I said, as long as you don't break the knots on the toad's back, it won't be poisoned."
I used my flashlight to illuminate the road, and Ye Zi was walking side by side with me, carrying a plastic bag.
Thinking of the scene just now, I curiously asked: "How did it stand just now? Just like the Huangpizi in the Northeast, Huangpizi will sometimes stand up when he sees people."
As expected of a professional veteran, Ye Zi explained: "Because it needs to shed its skin, it cannot shed its skin easily while lying on its back, so it will run to uneven rocks and use the rocks to stand up."
"Also, toads shed their skin every year and live alone. Moreover, they always molt between 12:30 and 3:30 in the middle of the night, when the reaction is the slowest."
After returning home that night, we went home to sleep.
I knew where she lived, so I went to look for her the next morning. Mr. Song said that he would check if there were any white ants under the coffin today. To be honest, I didn’t want to get involved with Grandma Li because it always felt eerie as soon as I entered the funeral hall. , it’s more important to make money by robbing tombs.
When she arrived at the door of her house, a man in his 40s was holding a bowl and eating.
"Young man, who are you and who are you looking for?"
"Hello, big brother, I'm looking for Li Ye, looking for Ye Zi."
"Looking for my daughter?"
The middle-aged man took the chopsticks and said, "You are not from our village, are you?"
"dad!"
"Let her in! He's my friend!"
"knew."
The middle-aged man shouted into the courtyard, smiled and waved me in.
After entering the small courtyard, I saw Ye Zi wearing gloves and holding iron tweezers. The big toad he caught yesterday was placed in the washbasin.
"What are you doing?" I asked.
She said: "I'm taking off my toad coat. Logically speaking, I should take it off tonight, but this one is too big. If you don't leave it alone, it will eat while shedding its skin and eat all of its own skin. That way, you won't be able to get the whole thing." Toad clothes.”
"So, I used potions and tweezers to shed the skin. If you don't believe me, just watch."
Ye Zi caught the toad and put it on the wooden board. She used a brush to apply a lot of soybean oil on the toad's back and belly, and then applied two potions, one red and one black.
I asked what kind of potion this was?
Ye Zi said: "This is specially bought peeling water. The specific formula is secret and contains certain hypoglycemic drugs."
First apply soybean oil, and then the secret recipe of molting water. Use a nail clipper to carefully cut a small slit from the toad's hind legs. Then she put down the nail clipper, picked up a layer of skin with iron tweezers, and slowly trimmed it. Tear it down.
The toad's legs were kicking back and forth in the air. I guessed it must be in pain.
Looking at Ye Zi, a smile of cold enjoyment appeared on her face.
The toad clothes were slowly peeled away until around the toad's mouth. Ye Zi used both hands. She quickly picked up a large vise and clamped the toad's mouth tightly. She used so much force that it flattened the toad's mouth. .
After tearing it apart, a complete large toad suit came off.
Then he quickly soaked Toad Yi in the water.
"call....."
Ye Zi breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Fortunately, nothing happened. It's the first time I encountered such a big one. If I hadn't clamped my mouth just now, it would have eaten it directly. If there were holes in the toad's clothes, it would be worthless."
I took a look and saw that the toad was alive just now, but now it was half-dead. The vise around its mouth was clamped so hard that it probably wouldn't survive.
"I'm here to ask today, have you thought about what I said yesterday?"
She nodded, glanced at the door, and lowered her voice and said, "Xiang Feng, I've thought about it. I don't want 50,000 yuan, I want to share it."
I thought to myself, this girl is not easy to fool...
Cooperation is cooperation, interests are interests, everyone wants to make the big bucks themselves
I don’t want to keep fifty thousand yuan, I want to divide it.
Yesterday I said that I might be compensated, but actually... the probability of compensation is small, but the probability of earning is high. If you do this job 10 times, you may be compensated once.
"Then how much do you want to share?" I asked.
She must have thought about it a long time ago. She looked at me, stretched out four fingers and said, "Fifty percent, Xiang Feng, I want fifty percent."
This ratio, 50 to 50...
I frowned and said, "Your job is mainly to buy equipment, deliver things, watch people, and do all the digging. 50% is too high, so I will give you 30% at most."
She didn't agree, so she shook her head and said, "At least 40%, I'm definitely worth this price."
"Thirty-and-a-half percent, the highest, I have to take the big one." I said with a cold face.
After grinding for a long time, she said what was wrong with her. Seeing that she couldn't grind it out, I waved my hand and said, "Forget it, it's a deal, 40% means 40%. You can really bargain."
She was very happy when I agreed and said with a smile: "It's a pleasure to cooperate. Do we want to sign a contract or something?"
I felt uncomfortable as soon as I heard about the contract. I said no, why did I sign that thing? Is it to leave evidence to get into the bureau?
At noon, Ye Zi warmly invited me to have dinner at her house.
What you eat is beyond your imagination.
I dare say that not many people in the world have had the opportunity to eat this dish.
Damn it, toad stew with potatoes.
Ye Ye first chopped off the head of the toad and removed the internal organs, then prepared the onion, ginger and garlic, threw the toad into a hot water pot and blanch it in water.
Take out the toad and cut it into pieces, heat the oil in the pot, add the side dishes, potatoes, green onion, ginger and garlic. After frying until fragrant, pour in the toad, add a little cooking wine, and finally add water to cover the pot.
Goo goo goo, simmer for more than half an hour and it will be ready.
Served with a bowl of rice.
Hehe...it smells pretty good.
