Chapter 521 Attracting the wild boar's attention? Then you are also a character!
"Let's sell it. The weather is getting hotter now, and our family can't finish eating such a big wild boar!" Chen Jun chose to exchange the wild boar for money.
Now that the weather is getting hotter day by day, I can use this money to buy two fans.
"Okay, then put the wild boar on the truck, take it to the factory to be weighed, and let the accountant pay you." Director Song nodded.
As they were chatting, Xu Damao, who had drunk too much at noon, walked out of the yard with a somewhat unsteady step.
After sleeping for a few hours, I was mostly sober, and then I was awakened by a chaotic noise.
What a pig-killing hero, what a great chef in the city who killed a wild boar.
Xu Damao listened carefully for a few times and soon realized that it was Chen Jun and his team who had returned from the jungle.
Whoops!
He had originally planned to go along, but he drank too much at noon and slept until now.
"Hey, isn't this Xu, the projectionist from the Red Star Steel Mill? Which young widow's bed did you just get up from?"
Although the relationship between Sha Zhu and Xu Damao is not as tense as before, Sha Zhu couldn't help but tease Xu Damao when he saw his expression.
"Get out of here!"
Xu Damao cursed impatiently, "Sha Zhu is such a mean guy, he's always stabbing him in the heart."
"Tsk tsk, Xu Damao, you are such a heartless man. It's only been a short time and you've already forgotten Xiaohong and Xiaofeng?" Sha Zhu was not afraid of Xu Damao at all and stabbed him a second time.
As soon as these words were spoken, Xu Damao froze suddenly, and the remaining half of the alcohol sobered up immediately.
What's going on?
How does Shazhu know Xiaohong and Xiaofeng?
Could it be that this guy has also been to the alley?
No, no, even if Shazhu had been to the alley, why would he say such things to himself?
Xu Damao was confused, but he knew that he could not continue to care about Sha Zhu, otherwise some things would probably be exposed.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, get out of the way. I don't understand what you are saying." Xu Damao waved his hand impatiently, then said to Chen Jun with a smile, "I just heard someone say that someone killed a wild boar in the mountains. Is that true?"
Xu Damao often went to the countryside to show movies, so he was exposed to more wild game than Chen Jun and his friends.
Occasionally, he would receive pheasants, wild rabbits and other things from the villagers, but he had never seen game as big as a wild boar.
Secretary Shi, who was smoking, took the last puff of his cigarette, threw the butt on the ground and said with a smile: "Of course it's true, Director Chen is now a hero in the village!"
"Director Chen killed a wild boar weighing over 200 kilograms with just a kitchen knife. He's amazing!"
Hey, Secretary Shi, please stop saying the four words "pig-killing hero"?
Chen Jun is now a little allergic to these four words, he wants people to call him the Wild King!
But this term didn't exist in that era, so Chen Jun didn't force them. He just asked them to stop shouting "pig-killing hero".
"What the hell??? You just took a kitchen knife and dealt with it?"
Xu Damao looked at Chen Jun in shock, and then looked at Sha Zhu beside him with disdain.
This stupid guy had fought with Chen Jun before. It was only because Chen Jun didn't have much experience with him, otherwise Sha Zhu would have been even more miserable than this wild boar.
"Hey, what do you mean?" Sha Zhu asked unhappily.
Xu Damao looked Sha Zhu up and down and asked tentatively, "Chen Jun killed a wild boar. What did you kill?"
"I..." Sha Zhu was speechless after being asked this question. After a long pause, he finally said, "When Chen Jun was hunting wild boars, I helped him to focus his attention."
Ouch?
This answer surprised Xu Damao a little.
I didn't realize that Shazhu, this stupid guy, was so brave that he actually took the risk to attract the wild boar's attention.
He is also considered a character.
After chatting for a while, they were invited by Secretary Shi to have tea in the yard.
Chen Jun originally wanted to go back to the city after a while, but was stopped by Secretary Shi, who insisted on treating him to a drink.
Xu Damao was also trying to persuade them, saying that he had to show a movie in the evening before he could leave. If Chen Jun and Sha Zhu left now, there would be no one to accompany him back to the city in the evening.
Unable to refuse such a kind offer, Chen Jun agreed.
Around six o'clock, Xu Damao stood up, walked to the gate of the yard with his head shaking, and directed the young men in the village to start setting up the screen for the movie.
The young men who were assigned to work were also happy to help. They volunteered to climb the trees and pulled the curtain neatly, even more orderly than yesterday.
"It's tied off, please have a look, comrade projectionist!" A young man with a messy hair shouted while lying on the tree trunk.
Xu Damao stood below with his hands on his hips. He looked left and right and then waved his hand to the young man on the tree: "Not bad, not bad, you have done a good job. Next time I come to your village to show a movie, I will let you hang the curtain!"
"Hey, thank you, projectionist." The young man was extremely happy to hear Xu Damao's praise, as if hanging the curtain was a very solemn thing.
After the screen was ready, Xu Damao began to direct others to move the projector into the room.
This thing is a precious item, even Xu Damao has to watch it carefully.
By the time the projector was moved out, the two combined tables outside were ready.
Xu Damao placed the projector and turned it on directly.
“Sizzle~Sizzle~”
The projector made a crackling sound, and the men and women present began to run around to tell each other, and then went home to move stools.
Not to mention the kids, who were so excited that they were shouting and screaming around the projector.
But before he could shout for long, he was dragged back by the adults in the family by his ears.
No one knew how much the projector was worth, but everyone in the village understood that it was broken by the naughty child at home, and they might not be able to compensate for it even if they sold the house.
While Xu Damao was happily watching the little kids screaming, he started fiddling with the projector.
The projectors at that time were not that advanced, and the focus and other things had to be adjusted manually, including playing the tape.
Although it is tedious, Xu Damao enjoys the process.
Because only at this time, the villagers looked at him with a hint of admiration.
It was fine to play old movies, Xu Damao could have someone keep an eye on the machine while he went to find someone to drink with.
If a new movie is shown, that will be Xu Damao’s real moment of showing off!
Because the projectionist Xu Damao would give explanations for new movies, whenever a new movie was shown, Xu Damao would always take away some local specialties before leaving.
After about ten minutes of adjustment, the villagers came over in a large group with benches and stools.
"Comrade projectionist, when will it start?"
An old man with gray hair and a trembling gait came to the front row and asked in a hoarse voice.
Xu Damao looked up at the sky, then waved his hand and said, "Let's start right away. Let's start earlier. If we have enough time, we can have two shows."
