Gu Yunyang personally drove the oxcart carrying the lychees.
They didn't even let anyone go down the mountain when they were going up.
His regulator is easy to control, but Old Zheng doesn't.
After descending the mountain, the two oxcarts headed towards the town, one after the other.
Gu Hanping also brought out his breakfast, and Gu Yunyang also brought out his breakfast, which they all shared.
Gu Yunyang and Gu Hanping were on the oxcart in front, while Old Zheng was driving an oxcart that wasn't loaded with lychees, with two middle-aged men on the oxcart behind.
The ox knows the way, so you don't need to pay attention to it all the time when driving the cart.
All you need to do is control the oxcart to go in the direction you want when there is a fork in the road.
Gu Hanping didn't want to eat Gu Yunyang's egg pancakes, which were made of pure white flour.
However, Gu Yunyang insisted on giving it to him, so he accepted it and slowly began to eat.
I must say, the taste is indeed much better.
Gu Hanping sighed, "I wonder when we'll be able to eat rice again."
Gu Yunyang comforted him, "That day will come."
That day is probably still more than a decade away.
Although these ten years or so are not a long time in the context of a country's history.
But for an individual, a decade or even nearly twenty years is a significant period.
Perhaps it's a third to a quarter of my life.
"You've finished eating, Captain, why don't you get some sleep? Didn't you sleep well last night?"
Gu Hanping hesitated for a moment, but finally accepted Gu Yunyang's kindness.
He really didn't sleep well.
I still have a lot to do during the day.
Old Zheng and the others also had breakfast and then rested.
Old Zheng was worried that Gu Yunyang wouldn't know the way, but Gu Yunyang laughed and said, "When I came to the countryside, I also traveled all the way from Guangzhou to the city, then from the city to the county, and from the county to the commune."
Old Zheng laughed and said, "Actually, there's a fork in the road when you get to the city. You don't need to go all the way to the county; you can just turn there. The road there isn't in great condition, but it's not much different from a main road. It can save you about twenty miles."
Gu Yunyang knew there were roads everywhere, and he would definitely take any shortcuts he could find.
Even with an oxcart, it would take several tens of minutes to travel more than twenty miles.
"Then please give me directions, and I'll turn around there."
Fortunately, when traveling, you only need to shout at the fork in the road, so it's not troublesome.
However, the oxcarts were moving faster today, and they arrived in the city in just three hours.
Old Zheng was puzzled: "Isn't this a bit too fast? It used to take three and a half hours. If we went through the county town, it would take more than four hours."
Gu Yunyang said with a "wronged" tone, "I've been taking care of these cattle for over a month now. It's only natural that they've made some progress, right?"
Old Zheng slapped his forehead: "Oh dear, I really forgot."
Gu Hanping had just woken up and nodded upon hearing this: "I had forgotten if you hadn't mentioned it. But this ox has indeed become much stronger."
After a long discussion, the group expressed their approval of Gu Yunyang's performance over the past month.
Gu Hanping then asked, "So what do we do next?"
We were delayed a bit in the village, and it was almost 3:30 when we finally set off.
After going up and down the mountain, it was almost four o'clock.
The three hours of travel time are calculated based on that time.
It's almost seven o'clock now.
People in the city are starting to go back to work soon.
This scene, though not as grand as the massive bicycle traffic in Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou.
But there are quite a few.
Many people also walk to work.
