Chapter 255 The Domineering Uncle Nine [6000 words]
eight pm.
Nearly a hundred villagers gathered at the door of Deng Shirong's house. Everyone stood and sat. While chatting, they occasionally looked up at the light bulb hanging on the beam that was brighter than a hundred kerosene lamps put together. His eyes were full of envy.
In later generations, it was normal to visit neighbors at seven or eight o'clock in the evening. Even in rural areas, no one would go to bed so early.
But in this day and age, except for those who gather for gambling after eight o'clock, normal people will basically not visit their neighbors if they have nothing to do, because at this time most people in the countryside have taken a shower and prepared to go to bed.
After all, there is no electricity in the village yet, so everyone lights kerosene lamps at night. Kerosene is not cheap for many families. They usually save what they can and only light kerosene lamps when necessary. They are not extravagant enough to light kerosene. The lamp sat there talking nonsense.
Therefore, going to bed early is the choice of most people.
…”
Deng Shirong nodded and said: "Okay, as long as you know what's going on, it's getting late, so go back to bed!"
Deng Yunjun answered: "Yes, Uncle Jiu, although there are no such people in our village, it is hard to say in other villages. If you put the TV outside, those **** in other villages will probably be interested. "
After Deng Shirong decided on the time to show the TV, many villagers continued to stay to help build the wooden sheds. Those who could not help left separately. They wanted to go back quickly and settle the things at home so that they could have a worry-free night. came over to watch TV.
Bu Dafang and his wife help their uncle take care of the orchard, and it is said that they earn a salary of dozens of yuan a month.
That night, the TV at Deng Shirong’s house was on from 6:30 to 10 p.m.
After a few more polite words from both sides, the Zhang family's grandparents packed up their things and went home with satisfaction.
The screen turned on, and the first thing that caught everyone's eyes was the twinkling snowflakes.
Therefore, in this era, as long as there are many dogs in the village, no one from outside the village dares to go to this village to steal things in the middle of the night.
“Everyone lends a hand and we will have TV in a week!”
Seeing the villagers who were eager to help, the Zhang family's grandparents were surprised but also felt that this was a reasonable thing. After all, Uncle Jiu's main purpose of building this wooden shed was to show TV to them. If they wanted to help with the work, then It's a completely normal thing.
"relative…"
Deng Yungui first praised, and then said: "But Uncle Jiu, there is no need to leave this outside for a long time. Isn't it enough to move it back into the house after the TV is played every day, and then move it out when the TV is on the next day? "
Baoshan Village is a small village even poorer than Naye Village. There are no more than three bicycles in the whole village. Now Bu Zhongshi directly bought such a big one and drove it back to the village. You can imagine how big a sensation it will cause. And know it.
After pushing each other a few times, Grandpa Zhang accepted the money.
Seeing these snowflakes, the villagers who didn't know why couldn't help but feel a little "thump" in their hearts. They thought the TV was broken!
As for daytime, it goes without saying.
This life is indeed better than that of most families in the village, but no matter how strong it is, it will not be so strong that it will directly buy a big truck!
…
Deng Yunheng, the youngest, although his academic performance is not as good as that of his second and third brothers, it is much better than that of his second sister and fourth brother. He also promised: "Dad, watching TV will not affect my studies." ”
They are all from the same village and share the same ancestor. Who doesn’t know who?
At this time, the Zhang family’s grandparents stopped working and stared at the TV curiously.
Deng Shirong estimated that at least half of these hundreds of people could not be seen clearly.
A major event happened in Baoshan Village that caused a sensation in the whole village, that is, Bu Erzhu's second son Bu Zhongshi bought a car, and what he bought was not a bicycle, but a big four-wheeled truck with a load of up to 4 tons.
“Zhongshi, did you buy this car to help others haul goods and make money?”
In the following time, the villagers all went out to work during the day. After eating early in the afternoon, they came to Deng Shirong's house to take a seat. Every night, hundreds of people gathered to watch TV, including people from the same village as well as those from the second and third villages.
So, it is better to place it outside here. The location here is wider. When everyone comes to watch TV, they don’t have to squeeze into the room. No matter they come early or late, they will have a place to watch. "
Deng Yunzhu and Deng Yunhua looked at each other, neither of them daring to say a word. Regardless of whether they were addicted to TV or not, their academic performance was mediocre. The best way for such scumbag students is to remain silent when their parents talk about study problems.
“Zhongshi, this car must cost at least tens of thousands. Where did you get so much money to buy it?”
In this day and age, everyone keeps dogs just to guard the door, so they will not be tied up. Once there is any movement that alarms the dogs in the whole village, these dogs will gather together and roar fiercely at anyone who comes into the village. This step is both a warning and a warning. People also remind the sleeping villagers.
“I went to the county town to learn it in July.”
After hearing everyone's advice, Deng Shirong smiled faintly, and then responded domineeringly: "Don't worry, everyone. Let's not talk about it. In our Bangjie brigade, which **** dares to touch my things? Besides, I raised this A few dogs are not just decorations. If they dare to attack my TV, they will definitely live a long life. "
Today happens to be Saturday. The three siblings, Deng Yunzhu, Deng Yunsong and Deng Yunhua, also came back from Shuangwang Junior High School. They were all pleasantly surprised when their father bought a TV. In this era, no one can resist it. The temptation of television.
Other villagers also looked in disbelief. If they had such an expensive TV, they would have locked it in a cabinet and hid it. How could it be left outside for a long time? What if it disappeared?
Deng Shirong explained: "There is no way. If it is placed in the house, how many people can sit in my house? If everyone comes to watch TV, if they arrive late, they may not be able to squeeze in. Wouldn't that be a spoiler of fun?
Before six o'clock, hundreds of people gathered in front of Deng Shirong's house, and people kept coming from other villages.
…”
The entire wooden shed was perfectly integrated with the longan tree, and it looked quite beautiful. Deng Shirong was very satisfied, so he took out ten large unity sheets and handed them to Grandpa Zhang, smiling: "Relatives, you have worked hard these days, so you can spend this money." Take it."
The ninth month of the lunar calendar.
Deng Yunsong saw that his father only called his name, and knew that his father had high hopes for him. He immediately calmed down and said, "Dad, I understand, and I won't delay my studies."
In this day and age, it was not until last year that there was a TV series called "Eighteen Years in the Enemy Camp", and the others were single TV series of hard-to-speak quality.
At half past six, the number of villagers who came to Deng Shirong's house was definitely not less than 800, if not a thousand.
The moment the sound came out, the villagers were relieved. It turned out that the TV was not broken.
Hearing Deng Yungui's question, the villagers present were silent for a moment, and then they all looked at Deng Shirong.
You know, in this era, being able to become a driver is already a profession that is envied by everyone in the village. But now Bu Zhongshi has not only become a driver, but also has his own large truck, directly bringing Baoshan Village to All the villagers were confused.
Deng Shirong said: "There's no rush, let's wait until my wooden shed is ready."
“Zhongshi, when did you learn to drive a big car?”
“Relatives, I can make all kinds of farm tools. If there is anything I can do to help you, just ask me.”
Ou Guofang and the other three said hello to Mr. Jiu, and then went back with their children in their arms. They all had the same idea as the villagers, that is, they went back quickly to finish all the work at home and eat early tonight. Then the whole family can come early to reserve a seat and watch TV.
…
Deng Shirong hummed. He indeed had high hopes for his third son. He had the same family and the same education in his previous life. In the end, among the brothers and sisters, only his third son was admitted to a technical secondary school and successfully entered the system after graduation. In this life, under his intervention , completely changed the second son’s academic destiny, and successfully entered Peking University.
Of course, before going home, you must also say hello to your in-laws. There is no need to say more about this.
Upon seeing this, Grandpa Zhang quickly waved his hands and said, "Uncle Jiu, this is too much money. We only have to work for a few days. Half of it is enough."
“Such an expensive thing should last for a long time, right?”
Deng Shirong didn’t know what to say when he saw this.
Deng Shirong's niece and nephew-in-law, as well as his four children, also stood in front of the TV, watching with curiosity.
Even though the villagers at the back couldn't see the TV screen clearly at all, they were very satisfied when they could vaguely see individual figures and hear the voices of conversations coming from the TV, and had no intention of leaving at all.
Unlike later generations of television, there are countless TV series and movies from various eras. There are also many TV series currently being broadcast. In addition, there are various animations, variety shows, food, sports, news, documentaries, and various short videos. Wait, it can be said to be so diverse that one can plunge into it and not be able to get out.
Deng Shirong, who had experienced it in his previous life, calmly came to the wire rack, holding the bamboo pole with both hands, and then began to rotate slowly. After rotating for about a few seconds, the TV set that had been flashing snowflakes suddenly appeared with a blurry picture, and then there was The voice came out.
Deng Shirong didn't want to whet his appetite. He just took out the TV and placed it on the TV cabinet. He then took a battery and placed it in the middle of the TV cabinet, and then connected the battery and antenna.
There is nothing Deng Shirong can do about this.
I have to say that work is faster when there are more people. With the spontaneous help of dozens of villagers, whether it is building a TV cabinet according to Deng Shirong’s requirements or building a wooden shed that is both beautiful and sheltered from the rain, the speed is very fast.
Early the next morning.
“Okay, then I’ll come over early tomorrow morning to help!”
Throughout the process, except for a few elderly people who couldn't bear it and left early, the vast majority of villagers persisted until the end.
After putting aside their worries, the villagers who were anxious to watch TV looked at the three generations of the Zhang family who were responsible for building a wooden shed for Uncle Jiu (Gong), and they all expressed their willingness to help.
When the time came, Deng Shirong turned on the TV and started watching TV for the first time in Naye Village.
“中石…”
This antenna stand was erected before. The long and straight bamboo sticks to the trunk of the longan tree. The middle part is fixed on a branch above. The fixing strength is moderate, so that the bamboo can rotate without causing any damage. Will swing.
As soon as Deng Shirong’s domineering words came out, all the villagers were convinced.
Deng Yungui handed the chimney to other villagers who wanted to burn smoke and said: "Although it is a bit troublesome to do this, we have to move it no matter what. Otherwise, what if we leave it outside like this and someone steals it?"
While the villagers were discussing the electric lights, Deng Yungui, who was sitting opposite Deng Shirong, was burning a cigarette and asked: "Uncle Jiu, now that you have installed the electric wires and lights, when will your TV start playing?"
Now is not the time to watch TV. After testing the TV station, Deng Shirong turned off the TV and said to the villagers: "Let's stop watching it now. Everyone has to work now, and there are no programs to watch during the day. Let's Watch again after 6:30 pm, please remember to come at a good time.”
“Relative, I have some strength, so it’s no problem to help move something.”
This wooden shed extends around the longan tree with the longan tree as the center. Because of the longan tree, the center of the wooden shed cannot be completely closed. When it rains, a small amount of rainwater will inevitably leak from the top of the wooden shed.
After talking about this, it was getting late, so everyone dispersed.
When all the villagers left, Deng Shirong saw that his children were also addicted to TV, and he couldn't help but warn: "Xiao Song, you can come back on Saturday and watch TV occasionally, but don't get so addicted that you waste your studies, do you understand?"
However, Deng Shirong is not interested in these TV series of poor quality, but the villagers all watch them with gusto.
Deng Shirong had known for a long time that villagers in this era had an unimaginable enthusiasm for watching TV in later generations, so he was not surprised at all that the villagers took the initiative to ask for help and simply said: "Since everyone wants to watch TV earlier, then Let’s build a TV cabinet tomorrow. Put the TV on the top and the battery in the middle. If we finish the TV cabinet during the day, we’ll start watching TV tomorrow night.”
“This electric lamp is different. It seems to be hundreds of times brighter than a kerosene lamp. It shines as brightly as in broad daylight at night. It’s amazing!”
However, the grandparents of the Zhang family used a little trick on the top of the wooden shed. This small amount of rainwater will only leak along the body of the longan tree and will not flow to other places.
On the wooden beam above the wooden shed, Deng Shirong also pulled a wire and installed a light bulb there.
"The car is indeed not cheap. I won't tell you how much it costs. Anyway, I owe a lot of debt to the credit union. If I can't make money, I will have to drink from the northwest!"
Of course, this is for Deng Shirong, who is used to watching high-definition TV. For the villagers of Naye Village, this picture quality is enough.
Don’t underestimate the warning role of dogs. Even if someone passes by the door in the middle of the night, the dog will bark a few times. If someone dares to touch the house, the barking will become even more ferocious. If If other families in the village also have dogs, it will cause the dogs in the whole village to roar too.
Hearing the familiar Cantonese, Deng Shirong knew that he was receiving the signal from the TV station in Guangdong without looking at the screen.
As soon as these words came out, the villagers immediately screamed and said that they would come to help early tomorrow morning and must build the TV cabinet tomorrow.
Now Bu Erzhu has contracted out the hilly and sloping land in the village, and it is said that he plans to cultivate it to grow sugar cane.
The conditions of Bu Erzhu's family in the first two years were similar to those of other families in the village. In the past two years, with the support of his brother-in-law Deng Shirong, the family has made great progress.
Deng Shirong continued to slowly turn the wire rack, and then the picture on the TV became clearer and clearer. As expected, the video he received was from Guangdong TV Station.
The children responded and went back to their rooms to sleep.
“If we light the lamp like this, I don’t know how long the battery Jiugong bought will last?”
Because if there is a dog warning, the chance of being discovered is too high.
Ou Guofang, Ou Guohua and Guan Yongying were all present. They all brought their children, and they witnessed the testing process of the first TV in Naye Village.
Deng Yungui was stunned when he heard this, and said in disbelief: "Uncle Jiu, are you kidding me? Are you going to keep this TV set in this wooden shed for a long time?"
Other villagers also tried to persuade Uncle Jiu (Mr. Jiu) to put the TV outside so that they could watch TV more easily. Of course, they couldn't let others steal Uncle Jiu (Mr. Jiu's) TV for this reason. , then they would be very sorry for Uncle Jiu.
The short test left the villagers a little unsatisfied, but they also understood that it was not the time to watch TV, so they all agreed.
Tonight is the first time that the Deng Shirong family uses batteries to light up the lights. The lights are as dazzling as the sun in the dark night sky. They can be seen by basically the whole village. It is the first time for many people in the village to see the lights on. It seemed natural that he would rush over to watch the fun.
At this time, the villagers who were woken up would usually take up their weapons and come out to take a look at the situation.
Of course, as the owner, Deng Shirong had already asked his children to set up two rows of small benches in front of the TV, which were reserved for his own family members and the more prominent people in the village to sit on.
Deng Shirong smiled and said: "Of course it does matter. In order to make it easier for everyone to watch TV, I plan to place this TV in the wooden shed outside for a long time. Naturally, I have to wait until the wooden shed is completed, otherwise it will happen to happen. It’s raining, how can this TV be used after being soaked in the rain?”
So the villagers who came to watch couldn't help but ask.
…
Next, Deng Shirong slowly turned the wire rack in a circle and found that he could receive signals from four TV stations in total, namely Guangdong TV, Guangxi TV, Hunan TV and CCTV. Several other TV stations also received faint signals. But I could only hear his voice but not his face, and the picture was so blurry that I couldn't see it at all. These are the four TV stations. In fact, the pictures are not very clear.
When the show was over, the villagers on the way home kept talking about the TV program they had just watched. Thinking of being able to come to Uncle Jiu’s (father-in-law’s) house to watch TV every night in the future, everyone felt that this life would get better and better. .
In the afternoon, a beautiful TV cabinet was successfully built by the villagers.
As for the child who falls asleep, just hold him or her to sleep so that it does not affect the villagers watching TV.
If it’s a movie, then it’s okay for so many people to come and watch it. After all, the movie screen is relatively large, and even if thousands of people gather to watch it, they can all see it clearly. But this black and white TV is only 12 inches. With such a small screen, it is impossible to see clearly from a distance.
Deng Shirong waved his hand and said: "It's too troublesome to move it around. I don't want to go through all the trouble just to watch TV."
As for his third son, who was more promising in studies in his previous life, his expectations were naturally not low.
While Deng Shirong was operating, the villagers held their breath and stared at the TV without blinking.
With the help of the villagers, the wooden shed that was originally planned to be erected in about a month was completed in just over a week.
Bu Dashi works as a chef in his uncle's restaurant in the county town, and is said to earn a salary of dozens of yuan a month.
Although the speed of transmitting news in this era is not comparable to that of later generations, showing news on TV is no less than showing a movie. After 5:30 in the afternoon, people came one after another with small benches to occupy seats, especially those from Naye Village. People, old and young, all showed up, and the scene was really more lively than a movie.
“Yes, I bought this car just to help others haul goods and make money. Uncles and brothers, please tell me what you want to haul in the future.”
After eating the white porridge, the villagers came over energetically, and then started to get busy in an orderly manner under the command of the three generations of the Zhang family.
Deng Yungui asked in confusion: "Uncle Jiu, what does watching TV have to do with the wooden shed?"
Because they all felt that Uncle Jiu (Mr.) was right. Originally, few people in Bangjie’s team dared to touch Uncle Jiu (Mr.)’s things. Plus, with the protection of these dogs, they really didn’t have to worry about what happened at night. Someone comes to steal the TV.
The villagers present were looking forward to watching TV.
“Relative, I know how to use a plane. I wonder if I can help?”
Deng Shirong smiled and pushed the money over and said: "Relative, please don't be polite to me. This is not a matter of working for a few days. You rely on technology to make a living. Without you, no matter how many people there are, we can't make this tree work." shed."
“Uncle Jiu, you are still thoughtful.”
This TV may not be as good as the movies, but watching movies costs money, and there are only a few opportunities to watch them a year. However, Uncle Jiu bought this TV. Not only can everyone watch it for free, but they can even come here every day. Look, who can’t look forward to this?
Once everything was ready, Deng Shirong turned on the TV in front of the villagers.
…
“The little light from the kerosene lamp consumes a lot of oil. This electric lamp is so bright, how much electricity does it consume?”
Grandpa Zhang immediately said, "Okay, with everyone's help, I will be responsible for building this wooden shed within a week."
The TV programs of this era are really not worth watching.
…”
Facing the questions from these uncles and brothers in the village, Bu Zhongshi naturally answered them one by one.
