Back to 78: My Leisurely Country Life

With his amazing drinking capacity, He Qiang successfully made a name for himself in everyone's mind.

Commander Zhou even told He Qiang that if he wanted to join the army and he had a say, he could be specially recruited.

He Qiang agreed, but he was not shaken in his heart.

His skills would be wasted if he joined the army.

And he couldn't stand military management.

After the dinner, He Qiang hooked his arm around Chen Xuebing's shoulder, and the two brothers walked away together arm in arm.

With He Qiang around, none of the leaders present today talked about urging others to drink, and they drank quite healthily, for fear that He Qiang would get in the mood and compete with them in drinking.

So Chen Xuebing didn't drink too much, and he was very sober at the moment.

""Brother, you have done me such a big favor. If you have any problem in the future, just tell me. I won't hesitate!" Chen Xuebing pulled He Qiang affectionately and asked in a low voice:"What kind of weapons do you usually use when you go into the mountains? Do you want me to think of a way to change to Type 5 or 6?"

Good man, it's like a pillow is sent to you when you are sleepy.

He Qiang was still thinking about how to talk to Chen Xuebing.

After all, this matter is quite taboo, and Chen Xuebing may not agree.

Unexpectedly, he took the initiative to propose it now. There was no reason for He Qiang to refuse, and he was overjoyed and said:"Brother, are you sure there will be no problem?"

Chen Xuebing knew he was thinking about it as soon as he saw He Qiang's expression.

Then Chen Xuebing smiled mysteriously and said:"Brother, I will keep it a secret for now, and you can wait for good news later."

He Qiang did not doubt it. Chen Xuebing did not drink much tonight, and what he said at this time could not be untrue.

Judging from the pattern that Chen Xuebing showed when he got along with him on weekdays, he must not be joking

"Then I will wait for your good news, brother!"

He Qiang was full of expectations, and finally couldn't help asking:"Which type 56 is it?"

The Type 56 has semi-automatic and Type 56 submachine guns! That is the Type 56, the Type 56 automatic rifle that was widely circulated in later generations!

If it is just the Type 56 semi-automatic, it is a bit worse, and it is not enough to fight compared to the Type 56.

He Qiang also knew that this Soviet-style rifle developed in China caused a big stir in later generations.

The AKs used by those black uncles are actually mostly the Type 56 we produce! It is durable and stable, with strong firepower and high accuracy. The black uncles all say it is good after using it.

""Hey, you seem to be quite knowledgeable, don't you?"

Chen Xuebing joked with He Qiang with a smile.

He Qiang was not shy and said,"What man doesn't love guns? My grandfather's shotgun is really not easy to use. When hunting in the woods, you still need intensive firepower, otherwise it may be easy to get into trouble when encountering large beasts!"

He Qiang's statement was agreed by Chen Xuebing.

Sometimes, after a beast is hit by one or two bullets, even if it is fatally wounded, it will still rush for a distance.

With the firing rate of a rifle, it will indeed overturn if the firepower is not enough. The militia has had many such cases.

In the past few years, the militia had a variety of weapons, and many of them had encountered such situations.

He even witnessed a militiaman who was in a hurry and hit a tiger with three bullets, but was still seriously injured by the South China tiger.

"So you want to get a submachine gun?"

Chen Xuebing expressed He Qiang's thoughts.

He Qiang was not polite and nodded in admission:"Brother, I encountered a black bear in the mountains recently. Although I chased it away, the guy ran away. This thing is familiar with the smell, and I am also worried that it will retaliate. Rifles are useless, so submachine guns are safer."

Chen Xuebing nodded, indicating that he had an idea in mind.

He could arrange this matter, and he could absolutely guarantee that there would be no problem!

The two returned to the barracks, and when Mrs. He saw that He Qiang came back safe and sound, she felt relieved.

"Old lady, your grandson is back! Have a good rest! I'll take you to the county town for a good stroll tomorrow!"

After Chen Xuebing finished speaking, he said to Liu Zhiqiang,"Xiao Liu, take the old lady and the others to have a rest."

"Yes!"

Liu Zhiqiang responded.

At night, He Qiang was assigned a separate room. He drank too much and had to go to the toilet several times before he could fall asleep.

……

The next morning, after being woken up, He Qiang went to the cafeteria with Chen Xuebing to have breakfast.

Knowing that Grandma He had no teeth, Chen Xuebing specially asked the kitchen to cook a bowl of preserved egg and lean meat porridge.

The meat was shredded, so there was no need to worry about it being difficult to chew or digest, and she could just drink it and swallow it.

Grandma He felt that Chen Xuebing really treated He Qiang as a brother, which was why he cared so much about her.

This good grandson of hers really had great abilities!

He was able to make such a great friend!

In the afternoon, accompanied by Liu Zhiqiang, He Qiang took Grandma He to the county town again.

Since they were here, He Qiang also visited Director Song this time. He said he wanted to buy a sewing machine last time, and he must not miss it this time.

Of course, before buying the sewing machine, He Qiang took the old lady around the county town first.

"The county has changed a lot!"

Old lady He's eyes were full of strangeness.

The last time she came to the county was before the founding of the People's Republic of China.

At that time, she had just married Mr. He, and the couple came to the county to have fun during their wedding.

As they walked, Old lady He stopped in front of a photo studio.

"I still remember this photo studio! Although the name has changed over the years, the layout of the entrance is still the same as before."

The old lady fell into memories.

He Qiang knew that there was an old photo at home.

In the photo, old lady He was still a beautiful woman in her prime.

It was also because of old lady He's genes, coupled with the efforts of two generations of He Yongjun and his deceased mother, that he, He Qiang, became a handsome young man famous in the surrounding area.

""Grandma, let's go in and take a look?"

He Qiang encouraged Grandma He in a low voice.

Grandma He waved her hand, a trace of loneliness flashed in her eyes:"Let's go���When people get old, they tend to think about the past."

When He Qiang thought of this, he thought that Mrs. He also missed the days with the old man.

"Grandma, let's take a family photo later, shall we?"

He Qiang suggested.

When Mrs. He heard this, she thought it was a good idea:"Okay, okay, let's take it later! Then call your dad and we'll go to the county together. Let's go, there's nothing good to visit, it's time to go back."

He Qiang nodded and took Mrs. He to the supply and marketing cooperative.

Song Guoqiang received them.

When he learned that He Qiang wanted to buy a sewing machine for his family, Song Guoqiang said,"Don't go to the department store, we have stock in our warehouse."

He Qiang didn't find it strange.

After all, he was the director of the supply and marketing cooperative, and it was normal for him to have some of these things. There were also wealthy people among the people, just like He Qiang's family!

"This sewing machine has been in storage for a long time and has not been maintained, so it has a certain degree of damage. If you want to use it, you can sell it at a discount, and you don’t have to ask me for a receipt."

Song Guoqiang pointed to a sewing machine in the corner and said.

He Qiang looked at the sewing machine in the corner and fell silent for a while.

You call this broken?

Just because the wood of the desktop is a little damaged, it is considered broken, and then it is sold at a discount?

And you don’t even need a receipt!?

The key point of the sewing machine is that the workbench and the machine are not damaged. No matter how rotten the desktop is, you can find a carpenter to repair it. It’s not a big deal!

Director Song, you are the director of the county supply and marketing cooperative!

If you do this, won’t your conscience hurt!

Do you really deserve your position by doing this!

At this moment, He Qiang only wants to say one thing!

"How much discount is it?"

Looking at Song Guoqiang's serious face, He Qiang's inner admiration for him is just like the Yangtze River, endless!
