Chapter 603 Huang Ming’s New Idea
While Zhang An and Ding Yi were squatting on the ground looking for female fireflies, the two little guys not far away who were struggling to catch fireflies suddenly became happy.
"Dad, hehehehe~~~"
The two brothers were laughing and calling their father.
Zhang An and Ding Yi thought something had happened. They looked up and found that Xiao Siqi had actually caught a frog in his hand.
Although Ding Zijie didn’t catch it, he used his chubby little finger to poke the frog on Xiao Siqi’s hand from time to time, and then he was even happier than he had been when he caught it. And be happy.
"How did you catch it?"
Looking at the little frog in his son's hand, Zhang An said helplessly while holding his forehead.
He didn't expect that his son would become so wild and start causing troubles at such a young age.
Although frogs are not difficult to catch, they are not easy to catch either.
You must know that they are timid by nature and will jump away before anyone gets close to them. Even Zhang Tie and the others have to work hard to catch them.
So he couldn’t figure out how two children over one year old caught this thing that could run and jump. It was impossible for them to play well. Let the frog jump into their hands.
But what Zhang An didn't know was that this was actually the case. The two little guys were having a good time, and the little frog insisted on jumping into Xiao Siqi's arms.
Thanks to the fact that they are often exposed to these things, if they were children in the city, they would probably be scared to tears.
The two little guys got the frog, just like they got a new toy. They didn't even catch the fireflies. They were gathering together, muttering not knowing what they were talking about.
“Okay, okay, it’s time to let it go. If you keep playing with it, you’ll kill it.”
After the two brothers played with the frog for a while, Zhang An walked over. Let them let it go.
Autumn is already halfway through, and in one month, the beginning of winter will arrive.
The guys who had been holding all-night concerts in the fields every night a few months ago were already preparing their hideout.
In the past summer, they have eaten a lot of bugs, and now they have a lot of fat in their bodies. As soon as winter comes, they will stay in their holes to hibernate.
Basically, as long as frogs develop normally and do not encounter natural enemies such as snakes during this period, they can spend this year completely.
Of course, the one in Xiao Siqi’s hand may not be able to complete hibernation normally.
Because it is so thin, it feels like it has just transformed from a tadpole.
Because of this, Zhang An asked his son to let him go, because if he continued to be played with, it would be stained with too much sweat from their hands, and he would soon be played to death.
People are already pitiful enough, but if they are played to death, it will be even more pitiful.
Although little Siqi was a little reluctant, she still chose to listen to her father and let go of the little frog.
The little thing, which was still a withered seedling, quickly disappeared into the grass forest beside the field ridge.
Because they had just been playing with frogs for a long time, the hands of the two little guys were covered with the sticky body fluids of the frogs.
At this moment, my hands felt uncomfortable, and the little guy immediately wanted to grab his clothes and wipe them clean.
"Don't wipe your clothes on your clothes. Your mother will see you when you get home. Don't cry when you get beaten."
The smell of this stuff is fishy and strong, and you can smell it as soon as you rub it on your clothes.
During the day, Su Ying gave the little guy a lesson because he was so good at staining his clothes.
If you rub this on, you will definitely get a beating when you go back later, and even Zhang An probably won’t be able to escape by then.
So when Zhang An saw it, he quickly stopped the little guy and took them to the river to wash their hands.
The interest of the little guys came and went quickly. They were clamoring to catch fireflies just now, but now they have forgotten about the fireflies after being distracted by a little frog.
There were a lot of people by the river tonight, and it was very lively wherever he went. Zhang An didn’t plan to go back too early.
So the two took the child again and continued swimming in the river.
“I didn’t expect that it was just a barren grass dam before, but now it is being used.”
When walking to Niuguntang, Ding Yi looked at the crowded dam and said.
This is where Ding Yi and the others came to have a picnic and barbecue when they first came to Zhang An's house.
In the past, this place was just a piece of grass, and because some people in the village were grazing cattle here, you might see a few piles of dried cow dung.
But things are different now. I don’t know when a stake has been planted here, with a very large incandescent lamp hanging on it.
At this moment, the dim incandescent lights are intersecting with the bright moonlight, illuminating the open space.
There are many people in Bazi, but they are all gathered together in groups of three and five, and they are busy having barbecue.
Of course, the things needed for these barbecues were not brought by these people themselves, but rented to them by someone in the village.
"It seems that there are still many people with ideas in the village. This is a really good idea."
Zhang An also nodded in agreement. This place must have just been built.
Because when he passed by here a few days ago, there was no movement.
Even when we sailed on the river during the day, we found nothing.
“Brother An, you guys come here to play too.”
Suddenly, someone from a dam not far away shouted to Zhang An and the others.
"I went out for a walk when it was cool at night, why are you here?"
Zhang An turned around and saw that Huang Ming had walked over with a smile.
"Hey, Xiaoying and I are here to do some small business."
Huang Ming pointed to Li Xiaoying under the street lamp in Bazi and said to Zhang An.
"What? You did this."
Just now Zhang An was still thinking about who in the village could come up with such an idea.
Now that Huang Ming has said this, he still doesn’t understand. Huang Ming set this up.
If it were other people in the village, Zhang An would be surprised, but if it were Huang Ming, Zhang An would take it for granted.
Because this guy has too many clever ideas. Before he was married, he made a lot of money just by messing around in the mountains.
Now that the new house is built and the fishing gear shop is open in full swing, anyone else probably wouldn't have such great determination.
“I saw you guys playing here before, and I thought this dam was pretty good, so I went to the village chief a few days ago to talk about it. After the village chief found out, he quite supported me. , so I started it."
Huang Ming nodded and explained to Zhang An.
"This set will cost a lot of money, right? How quickly did your fishing tackle shop pay back its money?" Zhang An knew exactly how much money Huang Ming's fishing tackle shop spent some time ago. .
Although the barbecue equipment that has been rented out in Bazi is not expensive, there are a lot of them, and the total cost is not small.
And he not only rents out barbecue equipment, but also sells all kinds of skewers.
In addition to Li Xiaoying, Huang Ming's parents are also here, preparing ingredients and busy putting on skewers, all of which need to be paid in advance.
So Huang Ming can take stock of all this, so he can only say that his fishing gear shop is really making money.
“Actually, it’s not bad, and I didn’t spend too much money on this set of things. When a barbecue restaurant in the city closed down for sale, I saw that it didn’t cost much, so I gave it to He took it and unexpectedly it came in handy.”
When it comes to fishing gear shops, Huang Ming is extremely humble.
“This guy really does whatever comes to his mind.”
Now Zhang An has nothing to say. He can only say that this guy Da Mingzi is lucky, and God will chase him and give him food. eat.
"Anyway, as long as you can make money, you can do anything."
I have to say that Damingzi is much more mature now than before she got married.
"Okay, stop nagging us here. Xiaoying and the others are already too busy. Hurry up and help. We'll walk around for a while and then go home."
Seeing that Li Xiaoying was almost overwhelmed, Zhang An stopped chatting with Huang Ming and drove him back to help.
"Okay, brother An, you guys can play while I get busy."
Huang Ming said with a smile and trotted back.
When Zhang An wanted to lead his son to the lotus pond, he found that the little boy had stood still and was staring at the barbecue stall in the dam.
It's over, my son's foodie temper has gone wrong again.
This was Zhang An's first feeling, because the smell of barbecue in the air felt good to him, not to mention Xiao Siqi, who always put food and drink first.
And it's not just Xiao Siqi alone, Ding Zijie is also here. The two of them can't walk at all looking at the barbecue stall.
“Come on, two kids, I’ll give this to you.”
While Zhang An was thinking about how to take his son away from this place of right and wrong, a man in his twenties The woman seemed to have seen the two little guys. After saying a few words to the others, she came over with two roasted chicken legs and handed them to the two little brothers with a smile.
Although little Siqi was drooling with greed at this moment, he did not take it immediately and turned to look at his father.
"Take it, thank you auntie."
Zhang An and Ding Yi felt very embarrassed, as if they had been caught red-handed.
But they also had good intentions, so Zhang An didn't let the little guy refuse. Otherwise, he doesn't know how much effort it would take to persuade them to leave here.
“Thank you, aunt~~”
When little Siqi heard her father's permission, she happily took the roasted chicken leg and thanked him sweetly.
Then he quickly gave one of the meat skewers in his hand to Ding Zijie next to him.
"Haha, you're welcome, you are really smart, kid."
Seeing that Xiao Siqi took the initiative to give the chicken legs to Ding Zijie, the woman said in great surprise.
Although the two roasted chicken drumsticks she brought were meant for each person, the little one had already divided them up without the adults asking. This is not something ordinary children can do.
"Thank you. These two children have been spoiled by their family and cannot walk when they see food."
Afterwards, Ding Yi and Zhang An also thanked them.
"It's nothing, just kids, it's normal."
The woman waved her hand and said, and then went back. They are the group of people on the outside of the Bazi, closest to the roadside. , no wonder you can see Xiao Siqi and the two brothers looking at them.
With the chicken legs in hand, the two brothers can already walk.
Zhang An and Ding Yi took them to the lotus pond for a walk, just in time to finish the chicken legs, and then they were ready to take them home.
Just when they passed by Huang Ming and the others, the two of them picked up the little guys and left quickly.
When the time came, they both started acting like monsters again.
At night, Zhang An came to space again.
He was going to observe how the fireflies he caught tonight were doing, but he couldn't work in vain.
There is no night in space, and it is impossible to find the location of fireflies by looking for light.
So Zhang An concentrated his energy and spent a little time to determine the location of the fireflies, which was in the grass beside the pool.
Looking carefully, you can see that many female fireflies have completed mating and laid eggs, and many of the eggs have hatched, and the larvae have begun to crawl around on the ground.
Compared to the outside, their growth rate has been accelerated dozens of times. It will not take a few days for these larvae to grow up, and then you can harvest countless fireflies.
But what Zhang An wants is to put them outside tomorrow night. Although this speed is already very fast, it is not as fast as he wants.
You know, Changqing is not a famous scenic spot, at most it is a place with good scenery.
So during this National Day holiday, the most crowded time in the village should only be the first few days.
By the later time, most people should have left and chosen the next place.
At that time, the village will definitely not be as lively as it is today. Even if the fireflies are developed by then, he will not have such a big effect if he releases them again.
After thinking for half a minute, Zhang An made up his mind to gather all the fireflies together.
Then he took out the spiritual spring crystal dew, poured out two or three drops, and mixed it with the space spring water for a group of small and large fireflies to eat.
Although the Lingquan Crystal Dew is scarce, Zhang An has been saving it for so long, so it is still within the acceptable range to waste a few drops.
The attraction of this thing to animals and plants is many times more obvious than the effect of space spring water. Although it has been diluted a lot with space spring water, the effect is still very obvious. There are many animals in the space. He came over by smelling the scent.
However, Zhang An did not allow it, and they only dared to watch from a distance and did not dare to approach.
After the fireflies are equally exposed to the rain and dew, the effect comes out. You can see that the adult fireflies begin to mate again, and soon the females begin to lay eggs.
The eggs are also hatching at a speed visible to the naked eye. This is not the first time Zhang An has peeped, so there is nothing embarrassing.
The larvae he saw just now are also growing at a speed visible to the naked eye. The adults grow wings quickly, and the females grow white and fat.
And he suddenly discovered that the second-generation fireflies cultivated in space had more vitality and felt that they would live longer than before.
Seeing this, Zhang An felt that the few drops of spiritual spring crystal dew just now were not in vain. At this speed, he can create a firefly spectacle in the village tomorrow night.
