297. The calm before the storm
After daybreak, Chen Youcai hurried back to Chenjiacun, endured the pain, and bought a flight ticket from Zhang Didu to Nanling City.
Speaking of which, this is the second time he has taken a plane since he was a child...Compared to yesterday's bad ride experience, this time it is really an addiction.
Comfortable soft seats, beautiful stewardesses who speak softly, and delicious drinks and meals.
When Chen Youcai came out of Nanling Airport, he secretly thought that when he was free, he must bring his father and Aunt Xu with him to take a good flight.
Experience a different way of travel.
"Youcai, you are back, there are still a lot of things in the village waiting for you to make up your mind!"
At one o'clock at noon, Chen Youcai finally returned to his small courtyard. Just as he put down his luggage, before he had time to catch his breath, the courtyard door was pushed open by Chen Daqiang.
Shen Miaomiao left yesterday, and the room remained almost as it was, except for the faint fragrance in the air, which also indicated that someone else lived here.
"Well, I went out to do some errands, Uncle Daqiang, let's talk about what's going on after I finish lunch."
Chen Youcai walked out of the room in silence, closed the door, and then smiled wryly to Chen Daqiang outside the door: "I've been driving for a long time, and I'm so hungry."
"Okay, let's go to a small restaurant and chat while eating."
Chen Daqiang slapped his forehead and dragged Chen Youcai to the small restaurant in the village.
It's mealtime right now, and the restaurant is overcrowded. Apart from most of the tourists, there are also many villagers who are too lazy to start a fire and come to the restaurant for a simple meal.
You know, this kind of scene was put on a month ago, and the villagers simply didn't dare to think about it... Who would be so full that they would be willing to spend money to eat out?
But now, because the colorful chickens and ducks have driven the village's economy, every household has become richer, their wallets have bulged, and their consumption concepts have naturally changed a lot.
However, there are few people who eat and drink at all costs, and almost always order two home-cooked meals, which can be regarded as economical.
"Uncle Daqiang, talented people are here too."
"Have you eaten, why don't you come and eat some together?"
The current village head, Chen Daqiang, has a very high prestige in the village, almost second only to Chen Youcai. As soon as the two of them stepped into the restaurant, many villagers took the initiative to say hello.
Chen Youcai responded with a smile, declined the other party's invitation, and was dragged to a cubicle on the second floor by Chen Daqiang.
The two of them didn't have too many taboos, so they ordered two bowls of rice and a plate of fried bacon with garlic sprouts, and started to eat it.
"You are talented, you have caused me a lot of trouble by running away... Those who want to cooperate with our village in live broadcasting and delivery of goods, almost blow up my mobile phone."
Chen Daqiang swallowed a big mouthful of white rice, with dark circles under his eyes, he smiled helplessly and said, "I don't know how to bring goods live, and it's not easy to refuse in person, so I can only wait for you to come back and deal with it together."
"Well, this time I went to Dragon City, the imperial capital, and I also made a friend. He is the big boss of a performing arts company, and he has agreed to help promote our village's live broadcast."
Chen Youcai settled the battle in twos and twos, put down the bowls and chopsticks, rubbed his stomach and said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about the live broadcast."
"It's still your kid who has the ability, unlike us old guys, you can only stare blankly."
When Chen Daqiang heard this, he also breathed a sigh of relief. The food tasted delicious, and the two chatted a few more things about the live delivery of goods. Chen Youcai said hello and went back to his small courtyard.
After closing the courtyard door, the smile on his face faded, and he turned his head to look at the plants and trees in the courtyard, feeling really mixed feelings in his heart.
According to what Mr. Liu said, now Huang Hao, who is evil in the Way of Punishment, has become an evil saint, and he will definitely come in menacingly... I wonder if Mr. Liu and the others can resist it?
The fight between meritorious messengers seems to have nothing to do with ordinary people, but Chen Youcai knows very well that in fact, the impression behind it is quite big.
Not to mention anything else, back then Cao Kun initiated a challenge mission to himself, but ended in failure. He was deprived of his merit envoy status, and the merit props he used were also invalid.
And just after the night when Cao Kun jumped to his death, all the Kun's pharmaceutical products on the market had problems.
Either the effect changed drastically, or it became a waste product, which led to a major reshuffle of the pharmaceutical industry in Nanling City. Several pharmaceutical factories of Kun's Pharmaceutical Industry closed down and were scolded bloody by consumers...
It is hard for Chen Youcai to imagine what the situation will be like if the meritorious emissary of the evil punishment way takes control of the Great Xia Kingdom?
One must know that the other party's merit book is dark and dark, completely different from his own golden merit book... At that time, will Chen Youcai's powerful spray, refreshing dew, Dali pill and other things all have no effect?
Shaking his head, Chen Youcai didn't want to continue thinking deeply.
First, he went to the pile of bricks and tiles in the corner of the courtyard, looked at the colorful rooster and the little piglet Chen Laohai had given him, and then scooped up a small pot of corn grains to feed the fish.
Looking at the fish scrambling for food in the pond, Chen Youcai was full of thoughts, and couldn't help but sigh in a low voice.
The moment he awakened the merit book, he was destined to leave the life track of ordinary people, and now he is forced to be involved in the struggle between the evil way of punishment and the way of good reward, which is really helpless.
Three days later, the live broadcast room of Miaomiao Pet Shop ushered in a bright moment. More than a dozen domestic first-line celebrities took the initiative to connect with each other, completely detonating the entire live broadcast room.
The popularity is skyrocketing, the number of fans is skyrocketing, and the products on the shelves are even more empty in seconds... The owner of the pet shop, Miaomiao, is so happy that she almost gnaws on Chen Youcai, but fortunately, Sister Tao stops her in time.
And the name Chenjiacun was punched in by the dozen or so big stars, saying that they would find time to come and relax in the near future.
Some people even faintly revealed that several outdoor variety shows in China plan to set the destination of the next episode in Chenjiacun...
As soon as the news came out, the word "Chenjiacun" immediately became the hottest search on the list, and countless media influencers forwarded the comments one after another, setting off a wave of discussion on the Internet.
Behind all the fiery frenzy, some people expressed doubts about this small Internet celebrity village that suddenly exploded, guessing that there is malicious capital behind it.
But no matter what, the name Chenjiacun is completely popular all over the country.
The most direct manifestation is that the ticket source for the high-speed rail and buses leading to Nanling City has been tense recently, and it is almost in time for the Spring Festival travel season.
"Damn it, it's not a good thing to have too many people. Now the whole village can't find a single live chicken, and they've all been eaten up and bought by these tourists..."
The passenger flow brought by the ultra-high Internet popularity far exceeded Chen Youcai's expectations.
In just one weekend, the number of people who came to Chenjia Village for sightseeing directly made this small village overcrowded, and it was once crowded.
Everyone in the village is as happy as Chinese New Year. This is like rushing to send money to their own door... Only the village head, Chen Daqiang, has a bitter face, answering the phone calls from the county leaders all day long, asking him to be safe work in order.
In order to prevent accidents, the Zhangjia Town Police Station was also sent to maintain law and order, and even dispatched the county's fire brigade to stand by around the clock, which shows how much the city attaches importance to Chenjia Village.
During this blooming period, Chen Youcai was also extremely busy. On the one hand, he had to negotiate with those villages rushing to join the live broadcast, and on the other hand, he had to supervise the construction of new houses in the village.
In the evening, I have to go to the teppanyaki shop to support the scene... No way, who let Boss Dai find out where he works.
After saying hello, the artists under the banner came here to check in one after another, and the luxury cars and supercars parked at the door, it was difficult to think whether it was attractive or not.
Zhang Dagui and Aunt Zhang were quite happy at first, and their small shop unexpectedly became popular all over the Internet one day. If it was in the past, they would wake up laughing from a dream.
But when the fanatical fans who came from all directions surrounded the shop... Zhang Dagui and Aunt Zhang almost fainted in the toilet.
Because the number of people far exceeded the capacity, the teppanyaki shop was asked by the county to temporarily suspend business!
After all, it was also for the safety of everyone. Even if there were 1 reluctances in their hearts, Zhang Dagui and Aunt Zhang had no choice but to do so with tears in their eyes.
Everything seemed to be developing rapidly in a good direction. Chen Youcai smiled on the surface, but he became more and more worried in his heart.
Before the storm comes, it is always so calm.
Finally, after the fourth day, Chen Youcai, who was busy with his busy schedule, suddenly received a call from Lu Ningxiang.
"Come quickly to Longcheng, the imperial capital. Mr. Liu has an order to ask all the meritorious messengers who are good at rewarding the Tao to go to the Holy Tomb to assemble!"
