Chapter 2375: : Chief Tao

What Ye Chen fears most now is that he hasn't seen Tao Caiwen's younger brother Tao Chengcai. When he is detained at the police station or police station, he may be dead.
Even in a developed place like Shanghai, such dark things will happen, let alone in such a poor place.
Ye Chen wanted to see Tao Chengcai as soon as possible, but now returning from Gaotu Village to Dashi Town, walking would be a problem if there is no motorcycle.
So now Ye Chen can only wait for the young man on a motorcycle to buy the Chinese herbal medicines, and then go out in his car.
When Ye Chen looked outside Tao Caiwen's house, he found that this place was even poorer than he had imagined, and even more backward, almost the same as Zhaojia Village in the 1960s and 1970s.
In the past, Zhaojia Village was poor, but it was not like here. Moreover, Zhaojia Village was mainly due to poor traffic. Later, after Ye Chen paid money and turned all the roads in the village and town into cement roads, he pulled the wires. , Those with fixed-line telephones are very different from the original ones.
At a glance, this Gaotu Village is basically mountains. There are few real flat areas. Most of the villagers’ homes are built on the mountainside or at the foot of the mountain, and all of them are mud-brick or stone houses.
In fact, these are nothing. Ye Chen sees the environment here. If there are mudslides or landslides in heavy rain, the villagers' housing here will have problems.
Ye Chen can't speak the local dialect, and Tao Caiwen's uncles and relatives can't speak Mandarin, so Ye Chen didn't have much communication with them.
However, Tao Caiwen has just told his uncles that Ye Chen is just an ordinary friend of her, not a boyfriend, so let them not misunderstand.
Moreover, even if she wanted to be Ye Chen's boyfriend, Ye Chen would not want her, because Tao Caiwen had seen Ye Chen's girlfriend much more beautiful than her, how could she become Ye Chen's girlfriend?
This time Ye Chen followed and Tao Caiwen knew that Ye Chen had come to help purely because of a friend. At this point, Tao Caiwen's parents knew something about Tao Caiwen, or her family was too far apart from Ye Chen, it was impossible for Ye Chen to like this ordinary girl.
Ye Chen sat on the wooden bench outside for nearly two hours and saw the young man on the motorcycle returning with an empty car.
After Ye Chen went down, the other party handed the medicines he bought to Ye Chen.
"This is the fare for you. Four hundred round trips. We will go to Dashi Town again in a while. Don't leave yet." Ye Chen said.
This young man felt that Ye Chen was too generous. In his situation, he was afraid that he would not have that much money to carry passengers for ten days. Unexpectedly, he would have it in one day.
After the other party hurriedly took it, he said he would wait here.
After all, if you have money but don't make money, that is a fool.
Ye Chen took the two pairs of Chinese medicinal materials that the young man had just bought on a motorcycle, and took them with them. He opened it and saw that there was nothing wrong.
Now, according to Tao Caiwen's parents, he separated the two packets of Chinese medicinal materials, and then looked at Tao Caiwen and said, "This big bag is for your dad's decoction, and this big bag is for your mother's decoction. Last time in Shanghai, you had fried Chinese medicinal materials, just follow that."
"What about you?" Tao Caiwen asked.
"I want to see your brother first." Ye Chen said.
However, he is not familiar with Dashi Town's birthplace, and even if he can ask people at that time, he thinks it is better to take someone there.
Originally, Ye Chen wanted to go there with Tao Caiwen's uncles, but none of Tao Caiwen's uncles could speak Mandarin, nor could they understand Mandarin, and communicate with them like a chicken and a duck.
However, Ye Chen learned that the village chief of this Gaotu village had gone to the police station for questioning, plus, he should know a little Mandarin, so it would be better for him to follow along.
Tao Caiwen took Ye Chen to a villager's house in Gaotu Village, which was the village chief's house.
The village head and Tao Caiwen are also related, but they have been separated for many generations. Now the village head heard that Tao Caiwen came back and brought a young man back. He also thought Ye Chen was Tao Caiwen's boyfriend.
However, when he saw Tao Caiwen and Ye Chen now, he didn't feel the same either.
"Mr. Tao, you can speak Mandarin!" Ye Chen asked.
"Will say, understand, how about going to the town for a meeting?" said the village chief Tao.
Ye Chen knew that he understood and could speak, but his dialect and accent were heavy. However, it doesn't matter anymore, as long as you can understand and speak.
"I want to see Tao Chengcai first, so you take me there first. I think you are the village chief and you must have a little more access." Ye Chen said.
When the village chief Tao heard this, he smiled, showing a row of big yellow teeth in his mouth, some of which were still very dark, which proved that it had a lot to do with his usual smoking, and he was smoking cigarettes now.
"There is a way. But, young man, you know, you need money everywhere." Village Chief Tao said.
At first, Ye Chen thought it was Village Chief Tao who asked for money. Tao Caiwen thought so. Unexpectedly, Village Chief Tao said that it was not he who wanted the money, it was because he wanted money. When the time comes, he will ask for money at the police station. .
If so, Ye Chen understood.
No longer wasting time with Village Chief Tao, and then Village Chief Tao put on a straw hat, and came down from the mountainside with Ye Chen. While Tao Caiwen was watching there, Ye Chen said: "You go back and give your parents a decoction first. Your brother didn't break the law, I will definitely rescue him intact."
Tao Caiwen knew that Ye Chen would not lie to her, and now she was more relieved.
Ye Chen and Village Chief Tao went to the foot of the mountain, and learned more about Tao Chengcai from Village Chief Tao.
"Mr. Tao, what kind of person is Tao Chengcai, Tao Caiwen's younger brother?" Ye Chen asked.
"He, he is almost the same as most other young people, plus, we are poor here, and then he finishes the first year of the middle school early, or he doesn't want to go to school after the second year, and then he goes out with the older people in the village alone. Part-time work seems to be in Bijie or Guiyang. First enter the factory, then feel tired after working for a while, go back to my hometown to play for a while, then work in the city factory for a while, and then come back."
"This has been the case in recent years. Some time ago, I saw him dye his hair yellow. I asked him how he dyed his hair. The other party said it was very fashionable. Many young people in the city are like this. "
Village Chief Tao said a lot there, but Ye Chen felt that most of the men and women who did not finish junior high school went to work in the factory and then dyed their hair in a non-mainstream look. That's normal!
"Mr. Tao, I would like to ask about Tao Chengcai's character, do you usually sneak around in the village? Isn't he bold enough?" Ye Chen asked.
"This child has a good character, and he didn't do anything sneaky. As for the courage, he is not very courageous. Sometimes when he sees the villagers, he dare not say hello." Village Chief Tao said.
