Di Jingjing didn't care about the three of them, she left by herself, and before leaving, she still explained for a long time, asking Di Wei to be honest and leave Shan Tao's affairs to her.
After explaining, he hugged the little Chihuahua and left directly, leaving Xiao Peng and the three of them staring at each other.
Di Wei still didn't let the two leave: "That, I'll hire you again, right?"
This time it's the right thing. ” Xiao Peng endured a sharp pain in his chest: "What's the matter?"
"How long does this hurt?
Still don't let people live?
But since he didn't get involved in their, Xiao Peng didn't care about the extra money, did he?
Di Wei said: "I want to go to Ningjin County, but you have also seen it, I can't drive now, can you help me drive to Ningjin County?"
How about 500 dollars a day?
” Xiao Peng pointed to Di Wei's car: "Drive this car to Ningjin County?"
Are you going to buy crickets?
But it's too tiring to run that far, right?
” Di Wei's car is a Mazda Six Atez, which looks very good, but the space is a little narrow, and if you really drive this car for a long distance, both the driver and the passengers will be tired enough.
And Ningjin County, where Di Wei is going, is a famous cultural county in the country in Dezhou, Shandong, and the reputation of "the hometown of acrobatics" is famous at home and abroad.
But it also has another name, known as 'the first county of Chinese crickets', where there is a good story that 'two months of wealth and ten thousand households, one centimeter is worth a thousand gold'.
Every year at the end of August, residents return to their hometowns to catch crickets and sell them, and merchants from all over the country come here to buy crickets.
Men in the family catch crickets at night, and women sell crickets during the day, which has become an industrial chain!
From cheap crickets for a dollar to thousands of crickets with hundreds of thousands of dollars, you can find them here.
Di Wei said: "Uh, I still have a Jeep Wrangler there, is it okay to drive there?"
” Xiao Peng glanced at Di Wei, the two exchanged glances, and Xiao Peng said, "Then in that case, why don't you go to Tai Ning Yang?"
” Speaking from the heart, although Ningjin crickets are very famous, to be honest, the best crickets in Shandong are still Tai'an Anyang County!
The crickets here are the best quality.
The crickets of Ningjin are actually the descendants of the crickets of Ningyang.
According to legend, when paying tribute to Ningyang crickets, they passed by Ningjin and were targeted by bandits, thinking that it was a good thing to pay tribute to the emperor, which Cheng thought it was a cricket, so he lost it in a fit of anger and became the source of Ningjin crickets.
Ningyang crickets are known as 'the first insect in Jiangbei'!
"Okay, it seems that you are really an expert, let's go, why don't you two come to me for a night first, and let's go directly to the road tomorrow morning?"
Di Wei asked.
"Then do as you say!"
Anyway, the little nest of the two of them has nothing of value, and there is no problem with a trip, five hundred yuan a day!
The two found a substitute driver and went to Di Wei's residence.
What the two didn't expect was that Di Wei's house was a blue brick house in the suburbs, with a single courtyard.
There is its own studio room, pomegranate grapes are planted in the yard, and there is a pond with koi fish, I have to say, rich is good.
It's all about living in a place like this.
Xiao Peng lay down on the bed to sleep after taking a bath, now he is careful in his every move, if he touches the wound, it is a sharp pain, this will not be until the Year of the Monkey。。。。。。
But it seems that God is still good to Xiao Peng, and when he woke up, the pain in Xiao Peng's chest had disappeared without a trace, and everything returned to normal.
This made Xiao Peng breathe a sigh of relief.
If it continues to hurt like this, then Xiao Peng's heart will die.
Xiao Peng and Yang Meng took turns driving and finally arrived in Ningyang County, Tai'an, although it was just autumn, and the cricket business here was already good.
There were many women sitting on both sides of the road, with small porcelain jars in front of them, in which they placed their own crickets.
And there are many people on the road with a yellow wolf grass in their ears and weaving baskets in their hands, they are all from all over the motherland, from the northernmost northeast to the southernmost Hong Kong, these are all 'cricket brokers', buy good crickets from Ningyang, go back to fight crickets or sell them for money.
Ningyang crickets are definitely famous in the cricket world, especially the crickets in Sidian Town are the most famous.
According to the record in "Fighting Cricket Essays", since Guangxu 21 to 1940, there were a total of 26 crickets in the country, of which 17 were in Shandong and 9 were in Ningyang!
In recent years, in the cricket competition, Ningyang cricket has won many battles.
This is also related to the variety of Ningyang crickets, there are more than 1,400 kinds of crickets in the world, and there are only more than 30 kinds in China, and Ningyang crickets are the brave and combative crickets in the crickets: big, strong, strong bouncing, and fierce.
The cricket market here is only more than two months, but the total annual distribution volume is hundreds of millions, accounting for more than 70% of the annual income of Ningyang people!

You know, now playing crickets is a trend, such as Beijing, Shanghai, Tianjin, Wuhan, Hangzhou and other big cities, have become what cricket associations, cricket clubs, cricket research centers, etc., every year to hold large and small cricket fighting competitions.
In Shanghai alone, there are 300,000 cricket lovers, and even more in the Beijing and Tianjin areas.
Among the enthusiasts, from ordinary people in the market to company bosses, the wide range of involvement is staggering.
After all, fighting crickets have been inherited in China for too long, as early as 2,500 years ago, in the "Book of Songs", there was a record of 'crickets in the hall, under my bed in October'.
And fighting crickets are even more prosperous in the Tang Dynasty, in the Song Dynasty, and in the Ming Dynasty, there is too much of a broad public base, how many men have not fought crickets when they were children?
"Di Wei, how are you going to buy crickets?
Will you pick?
Xiao Peng asked Di Wei.
Di Wei was very disdainful: "The big ones are definitely good, I bought a bunch of male crickets to fight each other, and the ones that stay are the best."
After speaking, he stuck his head out of the car window and looked at it: "Hey, why do you still sell female crickets here, and you can't fight, what are you buying them for?"
"Male crickets and female crickets are easy to distinguish: male crickets have two tails behind their buttocks, and female crickets have three, but female crickets fight without opening their teeth.
Xiao Peng covered his forehead: "Di Wei, Boss Di, please, let's say this in the car, don't say that after you go out."
Make people laugh!
” Di Wei was puzzled: "Where did I say something wrong?"
” Xiao Peng shrugged: "What a special ancient style weaving competition, do you know crickets?"
” Di Wei didn't know what was wrong, he looked at Xiao Peng with a confused expression, Xiao Peng said to Yang Meng: "Brother, can you tell him?"
” Yang Meng glanced at him: "Say it yourself."
I didn't bother to explain it to him. ” Xiao Peng said: "Okay, okay.
Di Wei, if you want to fight crickets, you must first understand crickets, do you think I'm right?
” Di Wei nodded.
Xiao Peng continued: "That's right, you're right, female crickets can't fight, but to buy crickets, female crickets must be there, the more male crickets mate before the game, the stronger the combat effectiveness." ” Di Wei sighed: "Look at that female cricket, her physique is really big!"
Xiao Peng said with a smile: "Someone once caught a female cricket with a large physique, minus the tail in the middle, and pretended to be a male cricket to cheat money.
You know the great eunuch An Dehai back then, right?
Legend has it that because of the female crickets, the Empress Dowager Cixi hit forty boards. ” Di Wei looked confused: "Isn't An Dehai Cixi's favorite eunuch?"
Why is Cixi still willing to beat him?
” Xiao Peng replied: "Legend has it that the Empress Dowager Cixi liked to fight crickets, as the saying goes, 'if there is a good thing at the top, it will be served by the bottom', so many lower-level officials went to the Ningyang area to force the common people to catch crickets and pay tribute.
You said that after these crickets entered the palace, it was okay to win the fight, and if they lost, they said that you did not pay tribute in this place, so they used the local people to catch crickets, and the government servants were rampant, exploiting at all levels, and the local people were also angry.
After entering the palace, the Empress Dowager Cixi was also very happy to see it, she was big, but no matter how she was trained, she just didn't fight, and when she looked at it again, she cut off a tail!
The Empress Dowager Cixi was angry, this is the crime of bullying the king, and the Empress Dowager Cixi pondered, female crickets, referred to as Cixi, are you scolding me?
Female crickets can't fight in pots, are you saying that I can't be the emperor by dictatorship?
So An Dehai was beaten alive with forty boards, and his ass blossomed. ” "And what about such stories?"
Di Wei's eyes widened, Xiao Peng said with a smile: "In fact, this is also a wild history, most of the crickets here belong to the sandflies, but because of the different colors, there are many different names, such as: big green, amber green, yellow long clothes, yellow du, green du, copper head iron back, purple shell white teeth, silver teeth light purple, millet green, iron head green back, beeswax head, sand yellow and dozens of other titles.
Now there are nearly 100 varieties of Sidian crickets in five categories: green, yellow, purple, red and black, and the precious varieties that are recorded in the ancient spectrum alone include big black green teeth, crab shell green, green hemp head, iron head and green back, amber green, black head golden red, purple yellow and so on. ” "What's the best?"
Di Wei asked impatiently.
After asking this question, Xiao Peng and Yang Meng glanced at each other and laughed wildly together: "Hahahahahahahaha." ” This smile made Di Wei stunned: "Hey, what are you two laughing at?"
” Xiao Peng explained: "Big brother, these names are just names, what is strong and what is weak is not to look at the name, the key is to look at the teeth, neck, legs and fighting nature!"
The name is just a title. ” Yang Meng continued: "You think for yourself, two big crickets are put in the basin to start a war, while saying: 'This is my copper-headed and iron-backed general', and the other one says, 'This is my yellow-toothed grasshopper (in many places in Shandong is called crickets called grasshoppers)', do you think you have lost half of the war before the war?"
So what if you say, 'This is my Grass Amethyne Tooth General'?
Half the win in momentum, right?
” Di Wei was stunned: "Can the cricket understand the name you gave it?"
What's the use of that name?
” "Scare your opponents!"
Xiao Peng gave the answer.
"Besides, how can you sell for a high price if you can't afford so many fancy names?
If you want, you can call it 'Turtle Yellow Round Round-headed General', the most important thing is to win. ” "No, I'm going to buy a few now."

Di Wei couldn't wait to get out of the car.
Xiao Peng stopped him: "Go and arrange the hotel first, good crickets can't be bought once or twice."
In other words, let me ask you a question, you said that you are going to hold an ancient style weaving competition, do you know how to play the ancient style weaving?
” "Huh?"
This made Di Wei ask.
