Chapter 367 I Like to Eat Wonton
Ziyi took out a book of local notes and showed him a passage.
Tang Jianguo laughed after reading it. It turned out that the notes said that someone had gone in before and never came out again. The person guarding the crack had heard a tiger roar and suspected that there was a tiger in the mountain.
Besides, the mountains over there are several thousand meters above sea level and are very straight, without even a tree growing there. Who would go in there? The book says that there is a primeval forest there.
"You can't take the miscellaneous notes seriously, but the mountains in that area are very steep, with an altitude of at least a thousand meters. But when you get to the narrow line of sky, the top of the mountain becomes flat, as if it suddenly drops, and the altitude may be only a few hundred meters. After you pass it, it starts to rise again. The whole mountain is like a V-shape, with the narrow line of sky being the lowest point. And the crack is also very strange, the further you go down, the wider the crack becomes. I wonder if the crack under the water is the same?"
"How can you and I know the wonders of nature? Let's go back," said Tang Jianguo.
After finding out who the Dahe named Linghe was, the two drove back.
The librarian was very happy. He only let the two men stay in the library for two hours today, and they got two cans of meat.
Although this year is not as difficult as in previous years, meat is still in short supply, and canned meat is even more rare. When he accompanied his wife back to her parents' home during the Chinese New Year, he gave her a box of candies to see if her sister-in-law would still look down on him.
The administrator locked the library door, hung the can of meat on the front of his bicycle, and went home happily.
After Ziyi sent Tang Jianguo home, he drove back to the courtyard. The courtyard was pitch dark, and he knew Yi Ke must still be sleeping, exhausted from the afternoon car ride.
He first went to the kitchen to boil some hot water, put the cooked vegetables in the pot to steam them, and then he went into the bedroom to wake up Yike.
Yike squinted because of the glaring light. Ziyi blocked the light with his hands. After Yike got used to it, he helped her put on her cotton jacket, covered her with a blanket, and carried her to the kitchen.
"Do you want to eat first or soak your feet first?" Ziyi put Yike on the wooden chair, turned around to close the kitchen door, and asked.
"Let's soak our feet first. They're still cold after sleeping for so long." Yi Ke raised his feet.
Ziyi moved the small wooden tub for foot bathing over, filled it with water, and said, "I put ginger in it to get rid of the cold."
"You should soak in it too, don't just soak it for me."
"No, I'm a man, I have a lot of heat,"
"No, let's take a bath together, otherwise I won't take a bath either."
"Okay, let's soak together. I'll add some water."
The two chatted while soaking their feet, and Ziyi told Yike the news he found in the library in the evening.
Yi Ke said happily, "Then we will take a boat out of the mountain. It will be hard to be discovered there. The main reason is that the cracks are too small. They only get bigger when they are close to the water surface. If the water level rises, the wide part will be even harder to see. At that time, people will have to lie down in the boat to get in and out, otherwise their heads will hit the stone wall above."
"What you said is possible. The water level is low in winter. Now it is only half a person's height. When the water level rises next year, it is really possible that the situation you mentioned will happen. It may even be completely closed."
"What should we do? Can we only go there in winter? But we can always think of a way. If it doesn't work, we can just cross the mountain from the other side."
"What are you thinking? The altitude is over a thousand meters, and even the crack is several hundred meters high. How can we get down? Even if we hang things down, it won't work."
"It would be nice if the other side of the river had a slope like this side."
"If that were the case, the mountains would have been inhabited long ago."
"That's true. Nature is truly magical. The mountain on the other side is as straight and steep as if cut by a knife, and there is not even a blade of grass. But on this side of the mountain, there are lush trees."
"It's strange. Our current Taoyuan Village should be at the same location as the top of the mountain. So the mountain doesn't look that high from over there. We are just standing in a different position."
"We need to arrange for people to go to the town near the thin line of sky."
"We have to do this. Let's buy a boat first. Isn't there anyone fishing in that village? We can buy their fish and make canned fish, dried fish, and various fish foods. This way we can sell more products."
"Okay, let's not go back this time. Let's go buy a boat first. Let's see if there is any drying equipment for sale. If not, we can buy the parts and assemble it ourselves."
"Hubby, you're so smart! You know everything!"
"That's because the company in the previous life was involved in mechanical and electronic manufacturing. As long as there were equipment and materials, your husband could build you an airplane. Unfortunately, he later acquired a shipyard and prepared to build cruise ships, but I was old, and I don't know what happened to him later."
"If we want to build a cruise ship, we can make it happen in this lifetime."
"Okay, in this life I want to make our country's manufacturing industry the world's leader and a manufacturing power. For now, we must first accumulate funds to prepare for the future."
"We also need to find talent. Talent and funding are both indispensable, and we can prepare for both."
The curling night mist gradually rises up and drifts leisurely among the trees, flowers and plants. Before long, it has quietly filled the quiet courtyard.
The cold wind blew through the city and the mountains. The trees that had lost all their leaves stood alone in the cold wind. The grass seeds buried deep in the ground were dreaming of a long winter.
In the warm kitchen, Ziyi and Yike discussed how to make the country more prosperous and accumulate strength...
In the winter, the roof of the courtyard is covered with thick fog, the bluestone slabs in the courtyard are covered with a thin layer of frost, and the water in the pressure well is
When the water was shaken out, wisps of hot steam floated out of the water, and the water flowing into the basin was surprisingly warm. I understand why the water is so warm, but I just think the wonders of nature are beyond description.
No, Tang Jianguo came early in the morning riding a Type 38 bicycle, and Ma Youcai, the purchasing agent, also came back.
The hats on their heads were covered with white frost, and their clothes were also covered with a thin layer of white, as if someone's salt had been accidentally sprinkled on them.
As soon as they entered the door, they parked their bicycles and went into the kitchen with breakfast.
"Brother, the weather is getting colder and colder. I think it might snow again today." Ziyi
Put the breakfast in the pot to heat it up, Yike squatted at the stove door and didn't want to leave. Ma Youcai took off his gloves and wanted to come forward to warm himself by the fire.
Yike squatted over to block him, "No way, sister, my brother-in-law's hands are almost frozen. Can you please give me some space so I can warm my hands?" Ma Youcai said pitifully.
"Go shake off the frost on your clothes before coming back. Otherwise, when the frost melts, you will be wearing wet clothes. If you don't rub your hands to warm them up, and just bake right away, aren't you afraid of feeling uncomfortable later? Look how well Brother Tang does, he even patted his hat and clothes before coming in."
Yike pointed at Tang Jianguo and smiled sweetly at him: "Good morning, Brother Tang!"
"Sister-in-law, good morning. I bought you some wontons, not the spicy kind." Tang Jianguo said.
"That's great! I just love eating wontons." Yike cheered and said happily.
