C152 Miao Family Village
C152 Miao Family Village
Although it was not wrong to set the level of poverty according to the economy, it was not comprehensive. If it was in ancient times, there would be poor areas everywhere. Because they ate the food they planted and wore cloth made by themselves. Those with a better family background might have some cattle, sheep, and livestock, but they might not be used to sell. During festivals and holidays, they would slaughter one of them, or take one out to exchange for some daily necessities. At the end of the year, they might not even have a single copper coin, but their lives were very rich.
At a glance, the Miaojiazhai did not look like a poor area. But whether or not it was a poor region was not important to Zhang Yunfeng. At least, Zhang Yunfeng was certain that the transportation here was extremely inconvenient. It was almost like a paradise, no matter how rich the people here were. Their medical standards could never be compared to the outside world.
After that, Zhang Yunfeng hung up the front door again and slowly drove the car into the Miaojiazhai.
Although the road leading to the outside of the mountain was extremely difficult to walk on, the road in the village of the Miaojiazhai was very smooth. Although there was no cement or oil, it was all made of dirt. However, the road was not only smooth but also strong. The big guy that he drove was driving on it. It did not even leave a deep tire mark on the ground.
Occasionally, farmers who were driving cows would only take a glance at the big car. They were not too surprised.
Zhang Yunfeng drove the car into the stockade. After the engine was turned off, he walked alone on the road in the hammock. He wanted to find the person in charge here first, but he did not expect to raise his head. He saw that outside a hammock building, there was a linen mask. There were a few beautiful words embroidered on it: Miaojiazhai Hotel.
Hotel?
Zhang Yunfeng was surprised. Why would there be a hotel here? Could it be that there were tourists coming here often?
Zhang Yunfeng immediately rejected the idea. It was really difficult to travel here. It was impossible for a large number of tourists to come here, but the scenery here was indeed very beautiful. Some people with financial ability might come here to take a vacation.
Thinking of this, Zhang Yunfeng decided to go to this hotel and take a look. At the same time, he also wanted to ask about the situation in the stockade.
The road up was not easy to walk on. The slope was steep and the road was not wide. Zhang Yunfeng did not drive but walked up.
The distance between this hotel and the place where he parked was 20 to 30 meters. It was just that he had not reached the top of the Miaojiazhai yet. However, looking down from here, the scenery at the front of the Miaojiazhai was panoramic. When the breeze blew, it was not only not hot, but also not hot. It was as cool as late autumn. Everyone here was wearing long robes. Only he was wearing a short-sleeved shirt.
Zhang Yunfeng stepped onto the wooden staircase of the Miaojiazhai Hotel. The sound of him walking upstairs alarmed the owner of the shop. Before Zhang Yunfeng reached the top, a figure suddenly appeared at the end of the staircase. Zhang Yunfeng looked up and saw a girl wearing the Miao family uniform standing in front of him. She was looking at him curiously.
Due to the girl's back being exposed, Zhang Yunfeng could not see the girl's face clearly. He asked the girl, "Excuse me, do you have a room here?"
The girl smiled and said in Mandarin, "Yes, you can come up and take a look."
Zhang Yunfeng was a little surprised that she could speak such standard Mandarin. It was very rare to see such a person in the local area. This kind of person was either from other places. Or they had lived outside for a long time. However, Zhang Yunfeng was also surprised. There was also a trace of joy in his heart. In this way, it would be more convenient to communicate.
The girl flashed away. Zhang Yunfeng climbed up to the second floor and stood in the corridor. Only then did he clearly see the girl's appearance. He couldn't help but exclaim in his heart.
The girl was very beautiful. Her skin was fair and delicate. It could also be that the air here was humid and the girl's skin looked moist. It was as if she could reach out her hand and pinch it lightly, causing water to drip out of her face.
The girl's appearance shocked Zhang Yunfeng even more. Her eyes were very big and shiny. Her pupils were extremely black, and her eyelashes were long and thin. Moreover, they were naturally curved and curved. It was because her eyelashes were extremely clean, and one could even see the fine and sharp edges. Therefore, Zhang Yunfeng could also conclude that this girl's eyelashes had not been modified at all.
The girl's face shape was very cute, unlike Su Nuoyan's oval face. It looked charming, but it was a little round, and her cheeks had meat. It felt like baby fat, with a small and delicate nose, and thin and short lips. It was a standard cherry mouth.
Upon closer inspection, the girl did not put on any makeup. Her face was completely bare. She gave off a completely stunning feeling. She was about 1.63 meters tall. She was not tall, but she had a well-proportioned body. She was slightly petite and exquisite, like the girl from the southwest.
A few years ago, there had been people on the Internet who had hyped up a Celestial Immortal's younger sister. However, this girl, whether it was her appearance or temperament, was a hundred times, a thousand times stronger than her.
Seeing Zhang Yunfeng staring at her in a daze, the girl smiled sweetly and asked, "Do you still want to look at the room?"
"Yes." Zhang Yunfeng came back to his senses and nodded awkwardly. He said, "Please show me the room."
The girl smiled and said, "There are not many rooms here. There are only six in total. But the last batch of tourists just left, so they are all empty. You can choose any one of them."
The girl brought Zhang Yunfeng to the end of the corridor. Every room had an open door. There were about 13 to 14 square meters inside, and the window was facing south. However, there was no glass. It was a wooden window that was hung with an iron hook. There was a wooden bed about 1.5 meters wide in the room, without Simmons' mattress. However, it was a snow-white blanket and pillow. There was also an electric light in the room. It was the most ordinary light bulb.
In addition to these, there was also a wooden washing rack in the room. There was an iron basin and an oval-shaped mirror on top of it. There was also a small writing table and a wooden chair.
The girl said to Zhang Yunfeng from the side, "The rooms here are all the same. The fee is 50 yuan per day. There is no need to pay a deposit."
Zhang Yunfeng asked in surprise, "So cheap?"
"Is it cheap?" The girl smiled in embarrassment and said, "I think this price is already very high, but there is nothing we can do about it. Every year, we only have two or three months of summer when outsiders come in. Other times, we don't see any tourists. "
Zhang Yunfeng couldn't help but shake his head and laugh lightly. If such an antique room was placed in Lijiang or Guilin, it would probably cost 500 yuan per night. 50 yuan was naturally very cheap.
After that, Zhang Yunfeng said, "Then I'll take this one."
The girl nodded and asked, "How long do you want to stay?"
Zhang Yunfeng thought for a while and said, "I'm not sure yet."
The girl could not help but ask, "In the past, tourists come here in groups of three to five. Why did you come here yourself?"
Zhang Yunfeng smiled and explained, "I'm not here to have fun. I'm a student of the Medical College. During the summer vacation, I came out to do voluntary medical work. I have already gone to a few places. I just arrived at Miaojiazhai today."
"Mandatory medical treatment?" The girl's eyes lit up and she said excitedly, "Is it all free?"
"Of course." Zhang Yunfeng walked out of the room and pointed at the car he had driven. The car is full of medicine and medical equipment. All the treatments I have done," he said. I will not charge a single cent, ___ said."
"Great!" The girl cheered excitedly and said, "You can stay here as long as you want, and the rent will be waived. I will also take care of your three meals a day, but you must not let me down... The people here live very relaxed and comfortable lives, and they don't have any requirements for the outside world... It's very satisfying to have electricity, but medical treatment has always been a big problem. There were a few old Miao doctors in the village, but the symptoms they could treat were too limited. If the people in the stockade have a slightly more serious illness, they will dare to go to the county for treatment on the mountain road for a day. "
As she spoke, the girl said sadly, "The people here usually don't have much contact with the outside world. The annual income is mostly left for food. A small portion of them went through great pains to transport it out in exchange for some money. To them, this money is almost useless in the stockade. They kept it to prevent future illnesses. There is no money to treat it in the county. "
Zhang Yunfeng nodded slightly. It seemed that although this place was a paradise, the medical problem was the same as the Wan Shan Xiang. It had never been resolved. The average annual income of ordinary farmers in poor areas was no more than a few hundred or a thousand yuan. The money spent for a year was not even enough to go to a big hospital to take a look at headaches and fever. If there was any serious illness, it would be like a bolt out of the blue for them.
Zhang Yunfeng said, "I just came here, and I haven't seen the chief of this place yet. Can you help me introduce him?"
The girl laughed and could not help but say happily, "There is no chief. Although this place is called Miaojiazhai, it is also an autonomous village. We only have a village chief here, and we don't have any secretary or other leaders. The village chief is also recommended by everyone. Grandpa Yang is a very good person. If he knew that you were here, he would definitely be very excited. "
After saying that, the girl pulled Zhang Yunfeng and impatiently walked towards the stairs. She said, "Come, I'll take you to see him."
Along the way, Zhang Yunfeng learned her name from the girl's mouth. Long Xiaoyue. Her father died early when she was young. Her mother also unfortunately passed away more than a year ago, and now she was an orphan.
Long Xiaoyue was just 20 years old this year. She was originally a top student who walked out of the Miaojiazhai mountain. She entered the top academy, Tsinghua University two years ago. At that time, the entire Miaojiazhai shook for a moment. The school fees were all collected by the villagers of the Miaojiazhai. However, her first year hadn't even been a few months, and her mother, who was in the Miaojiazhai, had a serious uremia disease. Long Xiaoyue rushed back to Miaojiazhai and stayed by her mother's side for three months. Three months later, her mother passed away. Long Xiaoyue buried her mother. She was disheartened by the outside world and continued to stay in the Miaojiazhai. She transformed her house into a small hotel. He also built a primary school in the stockade to teach the local children how to read and study.
Zhang Yunfeng was very curious as to why she gave up on her bright future and returned to Miaojiazhai. Long Xiaoyue said lightly to this, "My biggest wish back then was to work hard outside and bring my mother out of the mountains in the future. But my mom is not here, so I have no motivation. During those days when I was guarding my mother, the villagers of the Miaojiazhai took special care of me and my mother. Lend me money to treat my mother's illness and give me all the help I can. After burying my mother, I will give her a proper burial. ... I feel that if I leave now, I might no longer have any connection with the Miaojiazhai in the future. If that was the case, then I would be too irresponsible towards the villagers of the Miaojiazhai. It was not easy for the children here to study, and they did not even have a qualified primary school teacher. That's why I chose to stay."
As she spoke, Long Xiaoyue said with a relaxed expression, "Actually, the Miaojiazhai is quite good. There are a few thousand people here, and I know each and every one of them. They treat me especially well, and the children are also very obedient. They are not naughty at all. If I teach them how to study, their parents will have to pay me tuition fees. I don't want it. Village Chief Yang said, since I'm willing to stay, I definitely can't be allowed to farm to feed myself, so I usually have rice, oil, salt and vinegar tea as well as chicken, duck, fish, and eggs. They were all brought up by the villagers." Speaking up to this point, Long Xiaoyue laughed and teased," Fortunately, I ate less. Otherwise, I would feel bad in my heart. "
Zhang Yunfeng nodded slightly. He understood Long Xiaoyue's way of repaying kindness, and he also understood that the outside world was prosperous, and the outside world had a bright future ahead of them. To this disheartened girl, it was not attractive at all.
Zhang Yunfeng could not help but ask, "Then why do you still want to open a hotel?"
Long Xiaoyue smiled and said, "You want to attract some popularity for our Miaojiazhai. Think about it. In the past, the Miaojiazhai was not known by the world. Although the people nearby knew about this place, but everyone was very poor. How could they spend so much effort to come here and travel? I open a small hotel, and every time I go out of the mountain to the Internet cafe, I post on some donkey forums. If I post out the scenery here, it will always attract some curious tourists. When they come, they have to spend money in the stockade to eat, eat, and stay. It can be considered as pulling the economy of the stockade."
Long Xiaoyue said proudly, "Before you came here, there were a total of more than thirty tourists this year. The expenses of these people in the Miaojiazhai are about fifty to sixty thousand yuan."
Zhang Yunfeng asked in surprise, "People who can drive to this place should not be short of money, right? On the contrary, they are all very expensive. More than thirty people only spent fifty to sixty thousand?"
Long Xiaoyue could not help but smile and said, "What do you think the high consumption services we can provide here? Going to an ordinary farm to have a meal, a person's price of twenty to thirty yuan is already very high, okay? To the farmers, this income was also very optimistic. It's not like we are going to slaughter our guests, otherwise, if we go out... No one will come in the future."
Zhang Yunfeng chuckled. He had never thought that the people here would be so simple and honest. If they were in a real tourist attraction, it would be very rare to see such honest locals.
Long Xiaoyue looked at Zhang Yunfeng and said, "Don't always talk about me. Talk about you. You didn't even say what your name was."
Zhang Yunfeng smiled and introduced himself. Regarding his identity, he was still a first-year student of City J Medical College. He was about to enter the second year of university.
Long Xiaoyue did not look down on Zhang Yunfeng because of this. She knew in her heart. There were only a few Miao Physicians here, and they did not have any western medicine theories or experience. They did not know what kind of patient they should prescribe to give them medicine. Compared to them, Zhang Yunfeng had received formal medical education. He must know more.
Long Xiaoyue brought Zhang Yunfeng to the village chief's house. According to her, there was no village government here. The village chief lived at home. Usually, there was no official office. They just maintained the order of the Miaojiazhai and discussed some important matters with the elderly people in the stockade. It was basically an absolute autonomy. Moreover, the people here were very simple and honest. There had never been a case of theft and robbery. There had never been a criminal case for many years. Therefore, the county was very assured of this place, to the extent that they had almost forgotten about the Miaojiazhai.
Just as they arrived at the village head's foot, a middle-aged man in a shirt came down from upstairs. When he saw Long Xiaoyue, he smiled and said, "Xiao Yue, you're here."
Long Xiaoyue smiled and said, "Uncle Yang, are you going to work on the ground?"
The middle-aged man nodded and smiled. "I'm going to take Niu to the fields now. It's the weekend, so the school won't be teaching anymore, right?"
Long Xiaoyue nodded and said, "I'm going to rest for a day. The children want to sleep in."
The middle-aged man smiled and said goodbye and left. Long Xiaoyue did not pay attention to Zhang Yunfeng and brought him upstairs. She said, "That was Grandpa Yang's son just now. He had been doing business outside. The company went bankrupt two months ago, so he came back to Miaojiazhai. "
Zhang Yunfeng nodded and did not take it to heart. After the two of them went upstairs, Long Xiaoyue came to the door of a room. She knocked on the door and said, "Grandpa Yang, are you up yet?"
There was a local accent in the room that Zhang Yunfeng did not understand. Long Xiaoyue smiled and said, "Grandpa Yang does not know Mandarin. He only knows Miao. He could only understand a little bit of Mandarin. He was just saying, You little girl, don't speak Miao language properly. If you want to speak any Mandarin, it will take a lot of effort. "
Zhang Yunfeng nodded and smiled. He knew in his heart that it would take a lot of effort for him to communicate with her. Not only was it not a dialect, but he had also exchanged it for a language faculty. It was too troublesome to communicate with her like this. He might as well exchange it for Miao language skills in the learning system with 200 points.
Zhang Yunfeng thought about it and did it. After a while, he used 200 points and had already mastered Miao Yu.
At this time, Long Xiaoyue said in Miao Yu, "A volunteer doctor came to the stockade. He wants to treat the villagers in the stockade for free."
"Is that so?" The door opened quickly. An old man wearing a coat saw Long Xiaoyue and Zhang Yunfeng. He asked in Miao Yu excitedly, "Xiaoyue, is this young man the doctor you mentioned?"
Long Xiaoyue nodded and said, "Yes, he is a top student in the medical college. This time, not only is the treatment free, but the medicine is also free."
The old man was very excited and went forward to hold Zhang Yunfeng's hand. He said, "Young man, it is really an honor for you to come to our Miaojiazhai! I thank you on behalf of Miaojiazhai's parents and relatives."
Zhang Yunfeng took off his mouth and said in Miao Yu, "You don't have to be so polite. This is what I should do."
When Zhang Yunfeng skillfully said Miao Yu, Long Xiaoyue was shocked. She stared at Zhang Yunfeng for a long time and could not say a word.
