Can I enter the Shushan game?

Chapter 157 The Tree of Merit! No solution?

Guo Lin was obviously attracted by Sun Xian's words.

Because the elm tree is one of the seven wise plants of Taoism.

In addition, he probably also knew which elm tree Sun County was talking about, it should be the one in the old square of the county.

It is said that the old elm tree is also very old, and the trunk of the elm tree is relatively thick, and its overall diameter is larger than the ginkgo tree in Qingfengguan.

It’s just that old trees like this are generally protected.

Now Youcheng wants to push it down. There are only two situations. One is that the tree is really withered and about to die and cannot be saved. The other is that the tree really stands at the key point of urban reconstruction. , had to push.

This kind of thing is not uncommon. It has happened in many big cities during the renovation. In some places, there are even some people who love trees to hinder it.

But if these people want to block the development of a city with their personal will, they are acting like a fool.

It's just that Youcheng is a small county, and looking at Sun County, the situation is a bit bad.

However, he did have some thoughts.

The sect's residence has the achievements of the seven sage plants, but now there are only the ginkgo tree and the Huangshan pine.

The seedlings and mature trees he purchased were not recognized by the system.

If it was that elm tree, it would be recognized by the game system, right?

Now that the county is pushing out the elm trees, and maybe even transplanting them, this should be an opportunity.

The only problem is how to transplant such a large elm tree to Qingfeng Mountain.

It would be very simple if there was a road. With today's transportation methods, large items can be transported up.

The key is that there is only one mountain road up Qingfeng Mountain, which does not have transportation conditions at all.

"Okay, I'll go there right away!" After Sun County hung up the phone, he hurriedly said to Guo Lin: "Director Guo, something happened in the county, so I'll take my leave and go down the mountain."

Seeing this, Guo Lin said: "Sun County, but for that elm tree? I wonder if I can go and have a look?"

Sun County was stunned when he heard this, but since it was not a big deal, he nodded: "Dao Zhang Guo, of course that's fine!"

There should be a lot of people watching over there now, and it doesn't matter if there is one more Daochang Guo.

Moreover, he always felt that Daochang Guo's sudden interest in this elm tree might have some profound meaning.

After all, the things done by such an accomplished person are always puzzling.

Not only Sun County thought so, but also Chen Xin and the wealthy people around him thought so after what happened in the past.

Otherwise, how could this person be so interested in an elm tree?

They were somewhat reminded of the two ancient trees at Qingfeng Temple.

Lin Guangnan came to Chen Xin curiously and said, "Mr. Chen, I feel that this Taoist Guo seems to be very interested in the elm tree Sun County talks about."

"Well, let's go take a look!" Chen Xin naturally felt a little strange.

He has seen the mysterious wonders of Qingfeng Guan, and he has also seen the abilities of Taoist Guo. Such an expert is suddenly interested in a tree. He obviously has deep meaning, right?

Chen Xin, his wife, and Lin Guangnan also followed Guo Lin and Sun Xian out of the Taoist temple.

Some rich people also followed, wanting to see the excitement. This also had a chain reaction, making other rich people also follow, for fear of missing something.

Therefore, when the rich and wealthy get together, they no longer have a superior mentality, and they are no different from a group of ordinary people.

Guo Lin went down the mountain and saw the billboards for the Qingfeng Guandao purchase standing in front of the luxury cars at the foot of the mountain.

There were many tourists around, taking pictures with their mobile phones.

This scene was expected by Guo Lin.

In this case, even if Qingfeng Guan is not as popular as Qingfeng Guan, the Qingfeng Guan Dao sign will be a hot search on the Internet tomorrow.

After all, 500,000 yuan to buy a Qingfengguan Taoist plaque is much more attractive than 15,000 yuan to pray for blessings.

There must be many people who want to know what this card is.

When they know that this Taoist sign has the same origin as the blessing rice, Qingfeng Temple will surely receive another wave of tourists.

Guo Lin and Sun Xian quickly arrived at the old square. Some drivers drove to the foot of Qingfeng Mountain, while other wealthy people had to take taxis.

"Daozhang Guo, I'll go over here to deal with the situation. You can see for yourself." Sun Xian got out of the car and said something, then hurriedly walked somewhere.

Some people gathered there and were talking about something. It seemed they were people from the county.

As for the people they talked about, they were two old people, who should be the representatives of those old people mentioned by Sun County.

There are many old people sitting around under the tree over there.

Guo Lin also looked at the old elm tree.

He had an impression of this old elm tree. He remembered that when he was in junior high school, he had to pass by here when going to school. From a distance, he could see its leafy branches covering most of the old square.

At that time, there were many children running under the tree, and there were also more old people active under the tree.

In just these few years, this old elm tree has withered rapidly, its branches and leaves are sparse, and it is obvious that it is withered.

People have a limited lifespan, and so do trees.

When the life span is approaching, it will naturally lose its life quickly.

This is probably why the county's document to tear down this tree to improve urban traffic was passed.

Guo Lin thought about it and walked towards the bottom of the elm tree. His approach attracted the attention of the old people.

"Dear faithful believers, it's time for me to be polite!" When Guo Lin saw these old people, he bowed in a kind manner.

"Where did this little Taoist priest come from?" an old man asked.

"It's really rare to be so young!" Another old man also asked.

"Little Taoist priest, why don't you marry a wife if you become a monk at such a young age?" Another old man teased.

At this time, an old man with a goatee hurriedly shouted to these old people: "You can't be so rude, this is Taoist Master Guo from Qingfeng Temple!"

Guo Lin didn't find it strange that these old people were teasing him. After all, it was not strange for old people to tease young people at their age, especially when the old people gathered in groups.

Instead, someone recognized him, which surprised him.

There are only two ways to recognize him, either by watching short videos online, or by going to Qingfeng and seeing him in person.

Moreover, after hearing this old man reveal his identity, the expressions of the other old men obviously changed, and they all looked at him with a trace of respect in their eyes.

"Daozhang Guo, I'm really sorry for what I said just now!"

"I like to talk too much when I get old, Daozhang Guo, I'm so sorry just now!"

"Daozhang Guo, don't argue with us!"

"..."

The attitude of these old people has completely changed, and there is even a trace of fear on their faces.

Guo Lin was confused when he saw this.

Even if it is easier for the old man to believe this, he has never shown his holiness in front of these old people, so the attitude of these people is a bit strange.

The old man with a goatee said at this time: "Daozhang Guo, my name is Wang Chao, everyone calls me Lao Wang. I saw the Taoist priest from a distance in Mr. Chen's factory."

"Mr. Chen lives here. Everyone knows that you saved Mr. Chen's daughter and grandson without knowing it. Moreover, I also went to Qingfeng Temple twice to pay incense, but I didn't have the chance to see the Taoist priest."

As he spoke, he looked at Guo Lin with respect.

Regarding Mr. Chen’s daughter, I was surprised by what Mr. Chen said, but it lacked the shock of personal experience.

But he clearly remembered that he had seen the ginkgo tree when he went up there for the first time. The ginkgo tree was almost dead and was in worse condition than the elm tree.

When he went up for the second time, the ginkgo tree had turned into such a spectacular sight.

He has never seen such a scene in all his life. Moreover, this is simply abnormal. The only explanation is that it is because of Qingfengguan.

Now that Guo Daochang is here, is it because of this elm tree?

Guo Lin probably knew why these people had such an attitude.

Unexpectedly, he could now rely on his reputation to make a living like those Taoist masters in TV series.

There is a kind of plot that is not often found in movies and TV shows:

A group of people arrived at a place, and the people there were unruly, but when the person announced his name, the people there became respectful.

This is not nonsense.

Look at the scene in front of you. It is like this in modern society. It goes without saying that it was like this in feudal ancient times.

At this time, there seemed to be angry scoldings from Sun County, and then the two old representatives were seen lying on the ground and getting up.

"..." Guo Lin was stunned.

In this day and age, are there still people doing this?

But considering the ages of the two old men, it doesn't seem strange.

Negotiations with Sun County obviously failed.

Guo Lin also took the opportunity to ask Lao Wang: "The county wants to deal with this elm tree to build streets and improve everyone's living environment. In addition, the tree is dying, why is everyone so resistant?"

He did not immediately reveal his intention to make a tree, but first asked the reason.

Following the instructions and finally revealing the purpose is also a means of communication.

Hearing his words, Lao Wang couldn't help but start to complain: "Daozhang Guo, you don't know our feelings for this tree. We have been playing under this tree since we were children and have been under this tree almost all our lives. The county pushed it forward as it was told, without even asking us old guys for our opinions.”

The old people seemed to be filled with righteous indignation, and their dissatisfaction found a way to pour out, and they spoke one after another:

"Daozhang Guo, not only that, this tree also has the grace to save lives and support families like us. When I was a child, there was a famine. I still remember that there was nothing to eat at home. People today cannot understand that kind of suffering. Yes, at that time the bark of the elm tree was ground into powder and cooked at home.”

"The same goes for our family, not only the bark of the tree, but also the fruit of the elm tree, which looks like money. At that time, the weather was very dry and no crops grew in the fields. Our family also picked this fruit to eat and fill our stomachs. abdomen.."

"The people nearby were the same at that time. Because of this elm tree, we got through those difficult years. When we were here with this tree, *** was not here yet!"

"It's just that they want to push it now, thinking that it's enough to discuss it with the young people? Did they get our consent?"

"We are just old, not dead. If they want to push it, they have the ability to step over us. Otherwise, if they dare to push it, I will burn their a**!"

The anger seemed to get stronger later on, and the more outrageous and emotional he said, the more he said he didn't even pay attention to the official.

But when you think about old people of this age, most of them did not receive knowledge and culture at that time, and they only had the simplest sense of self-centeredness, so it is not surprising.

The key is that he also understands these people.

According to ancient Taoism, this tree naturally carries the people's wishes and has the merit of saving people's lives.

This is a tree of merit.

If there is any official Celestial Master or Emperor who is too idle, he is qualified to be deified and enjoy the worship of the people around him.

Lao Wang also seemed to know that his companion's words in front of the Taoist priest were wrong, and he hurriedly came out and said loudly: "Taoist priest Guo, actually we don't have to do anything. We also know that this tree is dying, but we have been treating it recently, and we also I just want the county to give us some time to try it out. If the tree is saved, there’s no reason to push it down, right?”

Guo Lin looked around the elm tree, and there were indeed signs of treatment and fertilization.

Probably the simplest idea of ​​these old people is this.

It's a pity that this is just their idea. The county is going to start a reconstruction and expansion project. Once the project is finalized, it is impossible to change the time, let alone keep delaying it.

Especially nowadays, counties and cities all over the country want to develop, but their own finances are not enough, so they have to apply for special funds from the municipal level.

With the funds finally approved, the project cannot be delayed. If it is delayed for a long time, it will have an impact on the county review and the county responsible person. This is related to the interests of the entire county.

Therefore, it is impossible for the county to delay, let alone compromise because of the demands of some elderly people with insufficient knowledge.

When such different cognitions collide, contradictions arise.

It seems that negotiations with Sun County failed.

It seems that the county is also trying to teach some great principles and righteousness, but these old people do not accept it, which is why they are in this situation.

Guo Lin knew everything and revealed his purpose, asking: "Old Wang, if the county does not want to push it, but wants to transplant it to other places, such as Qingfengguan, do you agree?"

"Ah?" Lao Wang was stunned when he heard this.

So are those old people.

Then, they thought of the ginkgo trees and Huangshan pine on Qingfeng Temple. Qingfeng Temple could take care of those two trees so well, so there should be no problem with the elm tree, right?

After a while, Lao Wang said: "Taoist, if it can be transplanted to Qingfeng Temple, we will naturally agree. We also believe in Taoist. In fact, we simply want to save it and let it live a little longer."

Other elderly people also expressed:

"Daozhang Guo, please save this tree, we will all be grateful to you!"

"Taoist Master Guo, if you save this tree, we old guys will go to Qingfeng Temple across the mountain to pray. We will be grateful to you!"

"Yes, Taoist Guo, if we can save it, we are willing to support it and bear all the expenses."

"..."

Guo Lin felt relieved after hearing what these old people said, so he also walked towards Sun County.

At this time, Sun County looked helplessly at the two old men lying on the ground.

He had already explained the truth and the benefits of this project to them, but they just couldn't listen. They had never seen such a stubborn old man.

Now we need to think carefully about how to deal with this situation.

He originally thought of using transplantation to stabilize these people, but he had just received a report that transplantation would not work at all because the tree's root system was too large and wide, spreading to the ground in this area.

Therefore, to transplant this tree, it is necessary to cut off many roots.

If it were a strong adult tree, it would be okay to say that it could still grow if transplanted. However, this kind of dead tree cannot keep up with nutrition. If you cut off some roots and replant it, it will only lead to death.

Unless, as a young civil servant said, it would be possible to use a special nutrient for plants. He asked the other party about this nutrient.

When he heard that the unit price was more than 100,000 yuan and that he had to use it every now and then, he directly told the other party to get out.

Now this is simply unsolvable.
