Chapter 274 Believe it or not, I'll let your dad hang you up and beat you? [6000 words]

Baoshan Village.

Deng Shilan's family began to grow sugarcane.

Since listening to the advice of his younger brother Deng Shirong, Deng Shilan and his family contracted more than 600 acres of public mountains in the brigade to grow sugarcane. With the help of some brothers, uncles and nephews in the village, after more than a year of reclamation, they finally reclaimed all the 600 acres of mountains.

Before last year, Bobai County planted spring sugarcane, which was generally planted in February or March. However, starting this year, many people have promoted autumn sugarcane, which means planting in September or October of the same year and harvesting in the winter of the following year.

Now that the time is right, Deng Shilan's family followed the trend and started planting autumn sugarcane.

The variety of sugarcane is also very particular. There is a farmer's proverb in Bobai that says: "It is better to change the seeds frequently when ploughing the fields than to carry manure and pile up the fields."

Before liberation, the sugarcane grown in Bobai County were low-yield and inferior varieties such as bamboo sugarcane and silver sugarcane, with an output of only about 1.5-2 tons per mu.

After liberation, Indian 290 and Java 2878 were introduced in the 1950s.

Taisugar 134 was introduced in the 1960s.

In the 1970s, Guitang No. 1, Guitang No. 2, Guitang No. 7, Fujian Xuan 703 and Yuetang 63/237 were introduced.

In the 1980s, varieties such as 71/210, Guitang No. 11, 832, 833, 80/25, 80/29, New Taiwan Sugar No. 1, and Guitang No. 12 were introduced, and the yield per mu reached about 3 tons.

The varieties Deng Shilan's family is currently growing are Guitang No. 11, No. 12 and New Taiwan Sugar No. 1.

Sugarcane planting is not a difficult task for the Bobai people. After the land was distributed to each household, the villagers would more or less plant some sugarcane on their own sloping land. If they could sell it, they would sell it. If they couldn’t, they would keep it for themselves. Anyway, those sloping lands were not suitable for growing rice, and they were basically used to grow grains and sugarcane.

Deng Shilan's family now wants to plant more than 600 acres of sugarcane. It is impossible for them to plant it all relying on their own family and relatives, so they go door to door to greet everyone and gather the whole village to help plant it.

In this regard, the villagers are very respectful. Deng Shilan's family now lives in Baoshan Village, which is a very remarkable family.

The eldest daughter and son-in-law are helping their uncle manage the orchard, earning a few dozen yuan a month.

The eldest son and daughter-in-law work in their uncle's big restaurant in the county town. Even if their monthly income is less than 100 yuan, it is not much different.

The second son is even more amazing. He took out a loan and bought a large truck. Now he drives the truck outside every day. It is unclear how much his monthly income is, but he must be making a lot of money. Even Bu Dajun, who followed him, has become a decent person now.

Today, the family has contracted more than 600 acres of mountain to grow sugarcane. The villagers don’t know whether they can make money, but their courage and determination are definitely unmatched in the whole village.

In addition, everyone in the village knew that Deng Shilan's brother was the most wealthy man in Shuangwang, and he was also the head of the Deng family. He was both wealthy and powerful, so who wouldn't give him some respect? In this context, Deng Shilan personally came to say hello, but he was just offering some help in planting sugarcane, and no one would refuse.

So, with the help of the whole village, Deng Shilan's family planted all the 600 acres of sugarcane in just about ten days.

After planting sugarcane, Deng Shilan had a big pig in his home slaughtered and invited the whole village to a meal.

…

While they were slaughtering a pig at home to entertain the whole village, Bu Zhongshi was taking Bu Dajun and a young friend from the village, Bu Daqiang, to Zhanjiang to transport goods. After ten months of training, Bu Zhongshi and Bu Dajun can now be considered qualified drivers.

Over the past ten months, the two of them have traveled to countless places to help people transport goods. Moreover, they have been learning from Deng Changrui, a real veteran driver, for so long that they have made great progress in both experience and car repair skills.

Nowadays, unless there is a major problem with the vehicle, most minor problems can be easily repaired by both of them.

Seeing that they had grown into qualified drivers, Deng Changrui no longer followed the cars, but used the capital he earned during this period to start a small business.

At this time, the three of them happened to be talking about Bu Zhongshi's family planting sugarcane.

Bu Dajun said, "Zhongshi, your family has planted so much sugarcane. When the sugarcane is ready for sale next year, we won't have to travel long distances. We can just transport your sugarcane. I'm afraid it will take us several months."

Bu Zhongshi nodded and said, "That's true. If I don't hire another truck, it will probably take me one or two months to haul thousands of tons of sugarcane, even if I can keep the truck full."

Bu Daqiang said, "Brother Zhongshi, if your family's sugarcane has a good harvest next year, I think you can make a lot of money."

Bu Dajun smiled and said, "Of course, we brought back the sugarcane seeds. Haven't you heard that the normal yield per mu is about 3 tons? That means more than 600 mu will produce about 1,800 tons of sugarcane. Even if we only make 10 yuan per ton, we still have a profit of 18,000 yuan. Besides, how can we only make 10 yuan per ton of sugarcane?"

Hearing Bu Dajun's simple calculation, Bu Daqiang couldn't help but take a breath and said in shock: "Doesn't that mean that Zhongshi's family can make at least tens of thousands of yuan next year? My God, growing sugarcane is so profitable!"

Bu Zhongshi smiled and said, "It's not that you can make money by growing sugarcane, but no matter what you grow, as long as the quantity is increased, you can make money."

Bu Dajun continued, "This initial investment will cost several thousand. Apart from your family, who else in our village would dare to do this?"

Bu Daqiang agreed and said, "Brother Dajun is right. Not only is there no family in the village that can afford to invest several thousand dollars, but even if they can, they don't have the courage to invest it all. Only your family, Brother Zhongshi, dares to do this."

Bu Zhongshi said: "If my parents were to make the decision, they would not dare to invest so much money in growing sugarcane. This was my uncle's idea, and it was with his support that my parents dared to boldly contract the public mountains in the village.

This also applies to me. If my uncle hadn't backed me up, do you think I would have dared to go to a credit union to get a loan to buy a truck to run freight business?"

Bu Dajun and Bu Daqiang were envious when they heard this. It would be great if their uncle was as good as this! ...

Bobai High School.

It was evening self-study time. In the classroom of Class 1, Grade 1, Deng Yunsong was studying English attentively. Compared with other subjects, English was his weak point.

Of course, as a top student who was able to be admitted to Yugao, his so-called shortcomings are also something that other students need to look up to. In terms of English performance alone, he is among the top ten in the class.

Deng Yunsong had just started studying on his own for a short while when he heard two classmates behind him talking. Both of them were from the county town and were chatting in the local dialect as if no one was around, laughing from time to time.

Learning requires concentration in order to concentrate. The actions of these two students not only affected Deng Yunsong, but also other students in the class.

As the class monitor, Deng Yunsong must be in charge.

So Deng Yunsong turned around and reminded them, "Li Donghai, Zhang Wenlong, it's self-study time now. If you keep talking like this, it will affect your classmates' studies."

Upon hearing this, Li Donghai and Zhang Wenlong couldn't help but glance at Deng Yunsong, then sneered at the same time. They ignored Deng Yunsong's reminder and continued to chat in the local dialect, completely ignoring the authority of Deng Yunsong as the squad leader.

Deng Yunsong took a deep breath and reminded again: "Li Donghai, Zhang Wenlong, let me say it again, it's self-study time now. You don't have to study if you don't want to, but please don't disturb other students' studies."

Li Donghai said impatiently: "What's wrong with us talking for a few minutes? Are you still meddling in our affairs?"

Zhang Wenlong said sarcastically: "You are just a squad leader, but you don't even know your last name!"

The commotion here attracted the attention of the whole class.

Deng Yunsong frowned slightly and said calmly: "If you don't listen to me, then I can only tell the class teacher!"

Zhang Wenlong glared at Deng Yunsong and threatened him, "You dare to tell the class teacher?"

Li Donghai also said "fiercely": "Deng Yunsong, if you dare to complain to the class teacher, we will beat the shit out of you."

Deng Yunsong's face darkened and he said, "You two are so arrogant. I think you can get into Bogao, and you don't look like the kind of people who are brainless. Don't you know that the whole country is cracking down recently? Don't you know that the Public Security Bureau is arresting people every day?

I even beat the shit out of me, how dare you touch a hair on my body?"

These words revealed a strong threat. If this was a second-rate school, perhaps those brainless young people would be so hot-blooded that they would rush in without saying a word.

But this is Bogao, the best key high school in the county. Those who can be admitted to this high school are all people with good academic performance and relatively high IQ, not to mention that it is Class 1, a key class. Naturally, it is impossible for them to really beat people up in school, especially when they are not in the right.

However, young people all want to save face. Just because they don’t dare to take action in school doesn’t mean they don’t dare to say harsh words.

Zhang Wenlong stared at Deng Yunsong and threatened, "Just wait. We won't beat you in school. Someone will take care of you once you leave school."

Li Donghae sneered and said nothing.

Deng Yunsong was naturally not scared, but a gentleman should not stand under a dangerous wall. Since things have come to this point, he must completely resolve the matter to avoid leaving hidden dangers for himself. He looked at Zhang Wenlong and Li Donghai and provoked them, "You want to threaten me, right? You look so arrogant, do you dare to tell me which village in the county you are from?"

Zhang Wenlong said arrogantly: "Why should I be afraid? I am from the new village."

Since the conflict broke out between the two sides, a group of students have been watching silently. It has only been a short time since the start of the school year, and the students are still relatively unfamiliar with each other. Some students have not even recognized all the classmates in the class. In addition, good students are relatively timid.

So all the students just watched, and no one dared to speak up for the class monitor Deng Yunsong.

At this time, when some classmates who were more familiar with the situation in the county heard Zhang Wenlong say that he was from the new village, their faces changed.

"So Zhang Wenlong is from Xincun, no wonder he speaks so arrogantly."

"What's going on? Are the people in the new village very powerful?"

"Well, I heard from people in our village who went to school in the county that the people from the new villages in the county are the ones you should not mess with. I heard that the people from the new villages are very united and good at fighting."

"I heard about it too. When I came to the county town to study, my cousin told me not to mess with the people from the new village."

"So that's how it is. Looks like the squad leader is going to suffer a loss!"

"I'm not afraid at school, but I'm afraid I'll get into trouble outside of school."

"He shouldn't be afraid. The class monitor has such good grades. Didn't the class teacher tell him that he was admitted to Yugao High School and is the top student in our school? If the class teacher knew about this, he would definitely take care of it."

"The class teacher is only powerful in school. Once you leave school, the class teacher has no power over you."

“…”

Deng Yunsong didn't pay attention to his classmates' discussions. When he heard Zhang Wenlong announce the name of the village, he smiled.

Xincun, isn't this a coincidence? "No wonder you are so arrogant, you are from Xincun!"

"It seems that you also know our new village. We are all classmates. As long as you apologize to me, I can pretend that this incident never happened."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

After knowing that the other party was from Xincun, Deng Yunsong was full of confidence and said, "Zhang Wenlong, you also said that we are classmates, and I don't want to embarrass you. As long as you apologize to me and don't affect the studies of the classmates, I can pretend that this matter never happened."

When these words came out, the students who had been watching were stunned.

Is their squad leader so brave? Who gave him the courage to say such words?

Zhang Wenlong was also amused, and gave a thumbs up and said, "Deng Yunsong, you have guts, then we'll see."

Deng Yunsong knew that if he didn't show off his muscles, he wouldn't be able to convince the other party. He asked calmly, "Zhang Wenlong, since you are from Xincun, I want to ask you, do you know Mr. Zhang Guangzong?"

Zhang Wenlong was a little surprised when he heard this and said, "Oh, I didn't expect you have heard of my name, San Gong?"

Deng Yunsong looked at Zhang Wenlong and said with a half-smile on his face: "Not only have I heard of your great name, Sangong, I can also ask you to go back and tell your father, and then have your father hang you up and beat you, do you believe it?"

Zhang Wenlong sneered, "Deng Yunsong, have you become stupid from studying? You want San Gong to go back and tell my dad to hang me up and beat me? Who do you think you are? Do you know who I am, San Gong?"

Deng Yunsong said calmly, "Grandpa Zhang drinks with my dad every day now. Do you think I don't know what kind of person he is? Even Grandpa Zhang doesn't need to take action. When I go back and say hello to Uncle Zhang Guoan who works in the court, I guess your dad will give you a good beating when you go back."

Hearing this, Zhang Wenlong could no longer sit still. If Deng Yunsong had only mentioned his third uncle's name, he could still say that the other party was using his uncle's name to gain a bigger reputation, but the other party even mentioned his sixth uncle's name and work unit, which meant that they probably really knew each other.

Moreover, the relationship seems to be very good.

Thinking of this, Zhang Wenlong didn't care about the embarrassment anymore and whispered, "Squad leader, who is your father?"

Although Deng Yunsong didn't want to act so arrogant, in order to establish his prestige in the class and prevent similar things from happening, he still gave an answer that was not an answer, and then lowered his voice and said, "You know Suifeng Hotel, right? My dad opened it."

Hearing this, Zhang Wenlong understood everything instantly! Although he was just a student, he was still familiar with the name of Suifeng Hotel, especially since San Gong personally spread the word in the village that people from their village were not allowed to cause trouble at Suifeng Hotel. San Gong even let the villagers spread the word that people from other villages were not allowed to cause trouble at Suifeng Hotel.

In short, Suifeng Hotel is protected by the three officials.

The squad leader turned out to be the son of the big boss of Suifeng Hotel. No wonder he was not afraid at all when facing the threats from the two of them.

The worst thing is that what the squad leader said was not a joke. If the squad leader told San Gong about what happened tonight, and San Gong went back and told his father, it is possible that his father would hang him up and beat him.

After knowing the reason, Zhang Wenlong immediately got upset and apologized with a red face: "Class monitor, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have disturbed my classmates' studies by talking!"

Li Donghai also listened to the whole conversation between the two. Even Zhang Wenlong, who was more powerful than him, had to admit defeat. How could he dare to be stubborn? He also apologized with a red face: "Squad leader, I'm sorry!"

This is a long story, but it only takes two minutes.

Seeing the arrogant Zhang Wenlong and Li Donghai apologize to the class monitor Deng Yunsong in person, every student was shocked!

You know, people of their age are the most concerned about their reputation, especially in front of female classmates. They would rather be beaten up than admit defeat and apologize to another classmate in front of the whole class. But the two most "domineering" students in the class did this, and the shock it brought to the classmates will surely be remembered by them for the rest of their lives.

I estimate that in twenty or thirty years, every student in the class will be able to remember what happened tonight.

While the students were stunned with shock, Deng Yunsong did not intend to hold on to it and nodded, saying, "I accept your apology!"

Then, Deng Yunsong glanced at the students and said, "Everyone, stop talking and study quietly!"

After saying that, Deng Yunsong sat back in his seat and continued to study his English textbook.

Although the students were itching to know what the monitor had said to Zhang Wenlong in the end, they all kept quiet obediently.

The authority of Deng Yunsong as the squad leader was initially established at this moment!

…

During this period, Deng Shirong stayed in the county town and did not return to his hometown.

Back in their hometown, the youngest daughter Deng Yunzhu is in the third year of junior high school this year, and the fourth son Deng Yunhua is in the second year of junior high school. They only come back once a week. Only Deng Yunheng, who is in the fifth grade of elementary school, is at home. Anyway, he has his niece to help take care of them, so it doesn’t matter whether he goes back or not.

In the county town, I drank a little wine with Zhang Guangzong every day, played with my granddaughter who was becoming more and more adorable, and visited the passenger transport company every now and then. I lived a very leisurely life.

The passenger transport company also progressed very quickly. After the National Day, it bought ten large buses and is actively recruiting bus drivers. The passenger routes to the cities mentioned by Deng Shirong have also been opened.

After all, it is a blank market, and it is not difficult to open up these passenger routes.

Because Tenglong Bus Company offered relatively high salaries, ten experienced drivers were quickly recruited.

At this time, Deng Silong and others who had been sent to the Agricultural Machinery School by Deng Shirong to learn how to drive in advance had also returned after completing their studies and were ready to set off at any time.

"Jiugong, everything in the company is ready now. We can start the bus at any time." In the general manager's office of the passenger transport company, Deng Changyu said to Deng Shirong with a smile.

Deng Shirong said with satisfaction: "Since everything is ready, let's officially start the journey in three days! I don't think there will be many passengers at the beginning, so you should be mentally prepared for this. Our goal is to familiarize ourselves with the route first, and then we can really make money when the Spring Festival travel rush comes."

In later generations, competition in the bus industry became increasingly fierce. Many people who run passenger transport usually only earn wages and money to maintain their buses. Only during holidays do they earn a little more, and the Spring Festival travel rush is the time to really make big money.

Deng Changyu nodded and said, "Okay, then we will officially start the journey in three days."

This is the passenger transport company of the Naye Deng family. Now that they are officially starting to run buses and make money, they naturally have to inform their clansmen.

So Deng Shirong sent a message back, asking the tribesmen to decide whether to come and watch the ceremony.

As it turned out, the tribesmen's reaction was even more exaggerated than Deng Shirong had expected. On the second day after receiving the message, a group of tribesmen rushed up by car.

The first batch of clan members include Deng Changbao, Deng Changxiong, Deng Yungui, Deng Yunqiang, Deng Yuntian, Deng Yunfa, Deng Changshou, Deng Yunfei, Deng Changming, Deng Changji, Deng Changqing, Deng Changli, Deng Changnian, etc. They are all bosses of their respective villages and clan members with relatively good economic conditions. Their shares in the passenger transport company are second only to Deng Shirong, so they are naturally more concerned about the company's affairs.

We had lunch at Suifeng Hotel.

Although all the clan members present were relatively wealthy, with 90% of them having an annual income of 10,000 yuan, they were still amazed to see the big restaurant opened by the clan leader.

Deng Changbao said in amazement: "Jiu Gong, I have heard about your restaurant for a long time, but hearing about it is completely different from seeing it with my own eyes. It is really huge!"

Deng Yungui nodded and said, "Yes, I have been traveling a lot in the past two or three years because of selling pots and tiles. I have seen many large restaurants in many cities, but I have never seen a restaurant as big as this one."

Deng Changxiong said with emotion: "No wonder you want to invest more than 300,000 yuan. Only you, Jiugong, have the courage to do this. If it were me, I would definitely not dare to do this."

Others also praised him. They were truly convinced of Deng Shirong, the clan leader.

Deng Shirong said modestly: "Don't praise me. I invested so much money in this restaurant. I don't know how long it will take to make back the money!"

Deng Yungui smiled and said, "Uncle Jiu, don't be so modest. I saw it when I came in just now. The restaurant's business is booming. I estimate that it will take only a few years to make back all the money invested!"

At this time, the waiter also started to serve the dishes, so Deng Shirong changed the subject and said, "Okay, stop praising me, and try our white cut and see how it tastes."

Upon hearing this, the other tribesmen also focused their attention on the various boiled dishes brought by the waiter.

Everyone drank two bowls of white porridge at home and then got on the bus. Now they were all hungry. When they saw the delicious white-cut meat, they couldn't help but started eating.
