Sumu wood in the quadrangle welcomes spring

Chapter 79 Unnatural Encounter

Chapter 79 Unnatural Encounter

For the work of the lifting company, Su Mu was transported back and forth four times.

Uncle Geng took a rest after two trips.

After all, the distance is not close and the weight is not light. For people with average physical strength, pulling it twice in a row will almost reach the limit.

At this time, if you force yourself to pull the car for the third time, it will actually work.

But after having a bowel movement, it may not take a day to recover.

Therefore, experienced people will not operate to the extreme.

After a short rest, you can continue to pull.

Just live like that.

Uncle Geng rested for a while and then reloaded the truck. It was estimated that he would be able to make the last trip.

Although he said that he could earn a day's money by doing this job.

But when it's all over, no one will really give up and continue working.

You can never make too much money, especially now.

There is not enough food, so who doesn’t want to make more money to exchange for more food rations.

Except sappan.

This young man was like an animal. He ran four times in one breath and was still very energetic.

Envy others.

"Uncle Geng, just hold on, I'm leaving."

Jingle Bell.

Su Mu finished the fourth trip and when he came out of the library yard, he caught up with Uncle Geng, who was blushing and thick-necked, pulling the goods for the third trip.

I couldn't speak after holding in my breath, so I responded with my car bell.

Many people in the lifting club use this to greet each other.

Su Mu pedaled the cart out of the city.

With nothing to do, Uncle Geng happened to have this opportunity, and he was going to get some fish.

The space lake is very big. Last time, I mainly went to catch game. Although there are fish in the mountain streams, there are not many fish in the space lake.

Now that I have the slogan of "Young Fishing King", I will have more opportunities to eat fish in the future, so I might as well replenish more supplies.

There are many places to fish in the city, but with more wolves and less meat, there are only as many fish as there can be.

For someone like Sumu who has plug-ins, fishing cannot meet his needs.

So he chose to leave the city.

There has always been a proverb in the old Beijing: "The city of Beijing floated from the river."

Why do you say that?
Because almost all the materials used to build the capital were transported from the river.

It is mainly transported to the capital through the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal.

Whether it was the construction and repair of Dadu in the Yuan Dynasty or the capital city of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, a large amount of wood and bricks were transported through the Grand Canal.

Moreover, not only construction materials were transported from the Grand Canal, but also the food and daily necessities that supplied hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in the capital after the city was built were also transported through the Grand Canal.

It can be said that without rivers and water transportation, there would be no capital city.

Therefore, the capital has many ancient rivers and abundant water resources.

There is no shortage of fishing places in the capital.

However, the conditions required for Sumu fishing are obviously not suitable in the city.

He plans to go to Yuquan Mountain.

The distance to Yuquan Mountain is not too far, and it is within the radiation range of Sumu's cognition.

There are eight springs in the mountains 16 kilometers northwest of the city.

It goes southeast to Kunming Lake, passes through the Changhe River and enters Deshengmen West Pine Forest Gate. After the water enters the city, it first pours into Jishuitan, and then flows southward into two routes: east and west:
It flows from the Shichahai lotus pond in the east, exits Di'anqiao, passes through Dongbuliaqiao to become Yuhe River, reaches Donghuamen Wangen Bridge, turns into an underground ditch, exits Dongjiaominxiang Shuiguan, and enters the first three gates of the moat.

The west road goes south and passes through the Liguang Bridge and Xiangbu Bridge, and then enters Beihai and divides into two branches.

One branch passes east of Silkworm Tan, along the outside of the west wall of Jingshan Mountain, and enters the West Tongzi River.

The other branch flows into Beihai, crosses Yuhe Bridge, enters Zhongnanhai, exits Rizhi Pavilion Gate, enters Zhongshan Park, then passes in front of Tiananmen Gate and joins the Dongtongzi River passing through Taimiao Temple to form the Changpu River.

Well, let's put it this way, the water sources of the rivers in the capital are all drawn from Yuquan Mountain.

Su Mu went straight to the source of the water system.

This time he directly planned to get a big one.

Once and for all.

……

evening.

Su Mu rode a scooter to Uncle Geng's residence.

Beigou is along the middle courtyard of a large courtyard in an alley, to the north of the east wing.Sumu has been here twice.

Once I was accompanying him to move things, and once he was helping to run errands and deliver things.

In the entire lifting club, he only has a good relationship with Uncle Geng.

"Uncle Geng, are you at home?"

Standing at the door, Su Mu shouted.

His cart was not seen at the door, nor in the courtyard.

The door of the house is pushed open from the inside.

A forty-year-old woman came out.

"Hey, it's Xiao Su, come in quickly, he's not back yet."

Uncle Geng's house occupies half of the east wing, sharing three square meters with its neighbor to the south, covering an area of ​​less than thirty square meters.

But three generations have lived there.

Well, it’s the fourth generation now.

Uncle Geng's eldest grandson is here.

"I won't go in. Auntie, this is the fish Uncle Geng asked me to bring. It's still alive. Take it..."

Aunt Geng took the fish and was very happy.

"Hey, hey, this is great. Xiao Su, thank you. Come in and sit for a while."

"No, aunt, it's getting late, and I have to go home for dinner."

After saying a few polite words, Su Mu turned around and left.

The house is not big, and the daughter-in-law is still in confinement, so don't go in and cause trouble.

Uncle Geng, on the other hand, said that he could rest today after finishing his work, but he still worked hard until the sun went down.

Life is not easy, and every family has its own problems.

The more this happened, the more grateful Su Mu was to Uncle Geng.

My own life was not easy, and I even gave up the work I got to Su Mu.

At the beginning, Su Mu was just a young man, with nothing good except his pitiful life experience.

It's a completely unrequited effort.

Su Mu knew very well that if it were him, he probably wouldn't have been able to make such a choice at that time.

Su Mu prides himself on not being a bad person.

But when he still needs to make money to support his family, he will seize every opportunity like a wolf instead of giving it to others because of his kindness.

Especially the other party is a useless person who seems to have no investment value.

So Su Mu felt that he was not a bad person, but not a good person.

Not so with Uncle Geng.

He has a good heart.

In terms of moral character, Su Mu admires Uncle Geng.

Even if he is just an inconspicuous boss of a lifting company.

Coming out of Beigou along the alley, twisting and turning in alleys, Su Mu arrived at Dongsi North Street in a short while.

The left hand side is not far from Xiangyi Hutong.

Somehow, Su Mu made a right turn by mistake. After riding for a while, he turned left and went around in the direction of Xiangyi Hutong.

The car stopped in front of the courtyard in Xiangyi Alley that I had visited once before.

Su Mu himself was in a daze.

What's wrong with you?
A figure appeared not far away, with two big braids swaying.

It was Ran Qiuye who had just come out of the toilet.

After all, the little girl comes from a scholarly family and has a bookish air about her.

Her face was flushed, and Su Mu wanted to hold it and take a bite.

"Miss Ran, thank you."

"Ah, hello, comrade."

This girl must have forgotten Su Mu.

There was a hint of confusion and vigilance in his eyes.

"Last time when your family first moved here, I brought them to you from the train station..."

Su Mu noticed Ran Qiuye's defensiveness and unfamiliarity, and immediately introduced himself.

"Hi, it's you. I'm sorry. I've been reading at home every day, and my brain is all muddled."
