Chapter 5: A Turn of Fate

[69 Book Bar-www.] Chapter 5 The Turn of Fate

The sea cucumber is big, and a good fresh sea cucumber is as big as an ear of corn. When Boss Li saw it, he immediately started buying it.

The goods were purchased at half an ocean per market catty, packed in boxes and sent directly to Shanghai on a freighter. When they arrived in Shanghai, they tore up the freight bills and sold them at a price of twenty oceans per market catty. The net profit was deposited into a foreign bank in Shanghai.

But the good times didn't last long. Despite all the efforts to cover it up, some interested people found out his secret. Several companies got involved and drove up prices. As a result, the price rose to several yuan per catty, and profits gradually dwindled.

Thanks to the continued trade in mountain products, their own mountain products can still be transported normally between the mountains. Other people’s products are not in such a good situation and are often robbed by bandits because of huge losses.

, no one is willing to do it, and inadvertently it becomes a situation where their family is the only one.

Mountain wild goods are mostly seasonal goods. They are wild vegetables picked from the mountains in spring, pickled with salt to keep them fresh, and then put into large flower pots in categories, tied with kraft paper soaked in tung oil, sealed with clay, dried in the shade, and then transported.

.

At that time, most of the Trichosanthes grandiflorum was woven from shoots, also called wicker (named because its leaves resemble the leaves of a willow tree). The inside was made of kraft paper, tung oil paste for the inner pot, and the tung oil paste was brushed three times before use.

Apply kraft paper three times, one layer of kraft paper and one layer of tung oil, to make it watertight. Then put a large mesh woven hemp bag on the outside, and it can be transported.

Autumn is all about sun-dried mushrooms. Once the autumn frost passes, the mountains full of mushrooms are like bamboo shoots springing up after the rain. Nests, puffs, clusters, all over the mountains and plains are precious mountain treasures. As long as you

Be diligent and you will receive endless gifts from the mountains.

Winter is the best season. The mountain products in winter are the most valuable of the year. There are a large number of fur trades of various animals. This season is the time when the furs of various animals are at their most abundant. The fur is soft and thick.

, the color is smooth and bright, and it is the best material for processing fur. It is also the favorite of fur shops. Therefore, the fur products in Northeast China are also famous throughout the country.

The two children went to primary school when they were about 7 years old. The school was a Russian missionary school in Harbin. Because their parents were too busy with business and other things, the two children did not know what they were doing.

What are you busy with? He is often away from home all year round. He is not at home. It is said that he is running around the country.

Since he was unable to take care of the children by himself, he placed the two of them in the home of an elderly Japanese couple named Naozo Fukuda, and asked the two old men to help take care of them.

This family has no children, and when they met the two children, they liked them very much. The most important thing is that the home of the two old people is still very clean.

In this way, the two children grew up tenaciously and healthily in such a abnormal environment. Although they left their grandfather, they have developed a good habit of practicing martial arts since they were young. The two children still consciously and consciously practice every day.

Practice doesn’t stop.

During this period, due to the convenient environmental conditions, I also learned Russian and Japanese. In addition to my own training, I often learned some Japanese kendo, judo, karate, etc. from Grandpa Tomita, or some other martial arts on the market.

.

Most of the young people in that era knew some kung fu skills. As long as they watched someone perform them twice, they would memorize all the routines. It was almost a photographic memory.

When I get home, I will check it out with each other to see if there are any strange tricks. If it doesn't work, I won't care anymore.

Useful, unique and creative moves will be integrated into their own Kung Fu. By eliminating the unnecessary and retaining the true, they will form their own style.

In this way, without delaying study, I skipped two grades and graduated early.

As soon as I graduated from elementary school, my father sent me to Fengtian. At that time, Fengtian was the largest city in Kanto. After all, it was the birthplace of Huang Taiji in the Qing Dynasty, and it was also the earliest large market town in the Northeast.

The large-scale city is also the location of the governor's office of the Northeastern Army.

They attended a middle school. At this time, Fengtian already had a Western-style education under the influence of Tsarist Russia.

The two children at this time were much taller than ordinary children, perhaps due to their cultivation. However, they strictly abided by their grandfather's teachings and never started fighting with others. They would rather be beaten themselves, as long as they were not broken.

He didn't fight back.

The place where I stayed was at the home of a relative of a warehouse clerk. The male head of the family was named Jia Shidao. He was a makeup artist in an opera troupe and was very skilled in craftsmanship.

The faces of people who have been made up by his hands are all lifelike. In particular, he also has a unique skill, that is, he likes to make exquisite masks.

The two brothers fell in love with this craft at first sight. It was much better than the masks sold on the street. They had to learn it. Uncle Jia had no choice but to see that the two of them had high understanding, so he

Teach them two brothers the heart.

The main ingredient of this mask is glue boiled from fish swim bladders, and several auxiliary materials are added to mix the basic pigments. Then the face is painted with mineral dye. The entire mask is soft, breathable, strong and durable, and can be used repeatedly

Used and not easily damaged.

The two brothers had a great time playing. They also practiced their craftsmanship very skillfully, and the masks they made were so lifelike that it was difficult to tell whether they were real or fake. They were really better than others.

The two brothers' favorite place in Fengtian is the City God's Temple, where all kinds of arts are available. Of course, their favorite place is to watch martial arts practitioners (dialect: martial arts practitioners). Maybe it's habit.

It is a natural reason. Besides, the folk customs in the Northeast are relatively tough, bandits are everywhere with beards, and there are many young people practicing martial arts.

In addition, most of the people who came to the Northeast before were hard laborers or prisoners who were exiled. Most of them had family training and had a certain degree of kung fu. Therefore, the practice of practicing martial arts was very popular. Various

There are also many genres.

The two brothers spent their carefree student years in junior high and high school practicing and studying. Due to their continuous practice, their spiritual wisdom was greatly expanded and their memory was extraordinary. The two brothers skipped two levels in succession, ten

At the age of five or six, I entered high school for three years.

This has also become a great anecdote in Shenyang. However, unexpected events occurred, and such a carefree life soon came to an abrupt end. For some unknown reason, the family suddenly cut off the relationship between the two of them.

At the same time, there was no news from his parents, who were the source of living expenses, and there was no trace of them.

Moreover, there was no news from them again. The two brothers were immediately at a loss, what should they do? There was still one month left to graduate. But they had no source of livelihood. There was no news from their parents. Everything was lost.

It was so sudden.

At that time, they didn't know what work was, how to make money, and how to earn money to support themselves. Fortunately, Uncle Jia didn't say anything. He still took care of their daily life and studies as usual.

their pocket money.
