Chapter 424

Not long after a group of people left, Zhang Taiping also went out on a motorcycle.

I cycled to a remote and uninhabited place on the mountainous road, and released the large osmanthus tree in the space. Then I returned to Fengyukou Village and found the door of the truck owner who helped pull things last time.

Just as he was about to knock on the door, the door opened. The person who walked out was not the host but an acquaintance, Zhang Gouwa.

"Huh? Are you here too?" Zhang Taiping asked.

"Commander?" Zhang Gouwa was also very surprised when he saw Zhang Taiping. "I came here to look around, nothing happened. What do you want?"

Zhang Taiping nodded: "I saw a truck parked outside. I came here to pick up something from the owner. Is the owner here?"

"Inside, let's go in and talk." Zhang Gouwa, who was about to go out, led Zhang Taiping in again.

The people inside heard what was said outside and came out. It was still the same man from last time: "Brother, handsome, what's the matter?"

Zhang Taiping said with a smile: "I'm going to trouble you again. This time I'm pulling up a big tree, just like last time, it's parked on the road around the mountain."

"No problem!" The man agreed immediately, "Let's go, I'll go over and pull him out right now."

Zhang Taiping said: "The tree is a bit big, and the three of us may not be able to lift it. We need to find a few people to help lift it."

"This is simple." The man responded and said to Zhang Gouwa, "Gouwa, let's find a few people separately."

Zhang Gouwa said to Zhang Taiping: "Commander, please wait here while we go find someone."

Zhang Taiping nodded, and after the two left, they found a shop and bought a few cigarettes, which seemed to be very good in the countryside. It didn't take long for him to find seven or eight young men or men. Zhang Taiping said nothing.

Let's get a pack of cigarettes first.

A young man took it and said with a smile: "What a smoke!"

Zhang Gouwa laughed and scolded: "You are taking advantage of me."

Zhang Taiping said: "Find some ropes, crowbars and the like, and tie them up so we can work together."

The car owner said: "I have a rope on my car. A big rope as thick as two fingers is absolutely strong. Please wait a moment for things like crowbars and I'll go in and look for them."

Zhang Taiping led the way on a motorcycle, and a large truck behind him pulled a group of young people to follow. When they arrived at the mountain ring road where the osmanthus trees were planted, they unexpectedly saw a car parked next to the tree. Two middle-aged people were walking around the osmanthus tree.

Looking next to it.

After the car stopped in front of them, the two of them raised their heads, and one of them asked politely: "Sir, is this big tree yours?"

Zhang Taiping nodded: "It's mine, what can I do?"

"It's nothing. It's just that such a big tree is not common. I stopped the car out of curiosity and came over to have a look."

Zhang Taiping looked at the car parked next to him. Through the half-lit window, he could see several pots of flowers and trees inside. Zhang Taiping had some idea in his mind that these two people might also have knowledge about flowers and trees.

After researching and stopping, it was not just a matter of curiosity. They must have also seen the value of this big osmanthus tree. However, the two of them did not say anything about Zhang Taiping, so they did not point it out.

"I don't know the price of this big tree sir?" the middle-aged man who just spoke asked again.

Zhang Taiping smiled and shook his head without saying anything.

Seeing that Zhang Taiping smiled and didn't answer, the middle-aged man stopped asking about the price and asked, "Where did you buy it?"

Zhang Taiping still smiled and said nothing.

The two middle-aged men were confused about Zhang Taiping's attitude and didn't know what to say.

The people on the truck also got off, and they were about to tie a rope to the big tree. At this time, the middle-aged man spoke again: "Sir, I am also a person who loves flowers and trees. Seeing such a big tree is more...

I like it, I wonder if you can sell it to me? I can pay twice the price."

He dared to say such a thing and had some basis for it. Guan, Zhang Taiping and most of the people who got off the truck knew that they were a group of rural men. They definitely didn't know much about trees. In addition, the conditions in the countryside were not that rich. No one would

You pay a lot of money to buy one and you can’t eat it

Since a big tree that cannot live in or lay golden eggs can now be bought back, the original price of this tree must not be high. So even if the price doubles, it will not cost much, and if this tree arrives

In his hands, the price of just a little bit of manipulation is immeasurable.

Zhang Taiping understood this person's psychology, it was human nature, and he didn't have any objectionable emotions. He shook his head and said: "I also like this big osmanthus tree, so I plan to take it back and plant it in my garden. I don't plan to

Sell."

Hearing Zhang Taiping say the word "osmanthus tree", the two middle-aged people's hearts sank slightly. If this big man really knew the value of this osmanthus tree, then the idea of ​​picking up a big leak today would be shelved.

.

He said with a tentative tone: "How about I offer a price of 100,000?"

This price did not change the look on Zhang Taiping's face at all. On the contrary, the young men who were about to put a rope on the tree stopped their movements in surprise. Originally, in their eyes, this was a very ordinary tree.

Big trees, such thick trees in the mountains, there are not even ten thousand but eight thousand, so they are worth seven or eight hundred yuan, at most one thousand, but they didn't expect it to be one hundred thousand. They all looked at Zhang Taiping and spoke to him.

"I really don't plan to sell it, so you two better not bother." Zhang Taiping replied.

"How about five hundred thousand? I think the price may be ten times more than when you bought it." The middle-aged man was still a little unwilling to give up.

"Half a million?" Zhang Gouwa and the man returning the car next to him were a little moved. Selling a tree for half a million was pretty good.

But what puzzled everyone was that Zhang Taiping still refused: "To tell you the truth, we are peers. Think about it, if you were in my position, would you sell it for 500,000 yuan?"

"Ah! Are you doing this too?" The two middle-aged men shouted at the same time, with embarrassment on their faces.

Zhang Taiping asked with a smile: "What? Doesn't it look like it?"

"No." The middle-aged man who just spoke said again, "I'm really sorry for making you laugh." Apparently, the two of them gave up on picking up the slack when they heard Zhang Taiping said they were traveling together.

"Nothing, this kind of thing is understandable." Zhang Taiping said with a smile.

The two middle-aged men said nothing more, but they did not leave immediately, but stood aside.

Zhang Taiping waved to the people behind him and said, "Let's get started."

A group of young men began to put the rope on the thick tree, and then four people stood at each end to lift it up. Zhang Taiping stood in the middle and used a crowbar to pry up bit by bit. Two middle-aged men stood next to him.

He also gave me a hand.

Shouting in unison, they finally placed the big osmanthus tree in the truck compartment. Zhang Taiping also wiped a handful of sweat from his head. Such a thick tree weighed at least two thousand kilograms. Twelve or three people worked together to lift Zhang Taiping.

It takes the most effort inside.

After patting the dust on his hands, one of the two middle-aged men began to introduce himself: "My name is Zheng Decai, and this is my colleague Li Xiao. What do you call me brothers?"

Zhang Taiping shook hands with the two and said, "Zhang Taiping."

"Zhang Taiping? I seem to have heard this name somewhere."

"Teacher Song from Shanye Teahouse said it," Li Xiao said with a smile.

Zheng Decai patted his forehead and said, "Yes, it's Teacher Song from Shanye Tea House. I heard about it when I went to see him last time. Teacher Song said that my brother is very good at growing and curing flowers."

Zhang Taiping shook his head: "The blind cat encountered a dead mouse twice, it cannot be taken seriously."

"Haha, this thing can't be fake, and there's not much luck involved. Being able to cure it is just your own ability."

Zhang Taiping smiled and did not argue anymore.

"I just heard that you have a garden. I wonder if the two of us can come and have a look?" Zheng Decai asked.

Zhang Taiping got on the motorcycle and said with a smile: "Is this okay? If you want to go there, come with us. I welcome you."

After returning to the yard, Zhang Taiping called Fan Ming and said, "You two gentlemen, please go inside the house to get a cup of tea and some fruit. I'll go over and plant the tree first."

Zheng Decai waved his hand and said, "You don't have to worry about us two. Let's take a look around the garden. Let's follow you to plant this big osmanthus tree first."

Seeing the two people's plan, Zhang Taiping did not try to dissuade them. He dumped the big osmanthus tree at the entrance of the courtyard, and then more than a dozen people shouted slogans and moved it from the entrance of the courtyard to the center of the lavender field.

After putting it down, they started digging a hole together at the place chosen by Zhang Taiping.

Fan Ming watched Zhang Taiping shovel down the lavender on the ground, and asked with some distress: "Brother plans to plant this big tree here, so what a pity these flowers are."

Zhang Taiping spread his hands and said: "There is no way. I feel it is more suitable to plant this big osmanthus tree here. In fact, there is nothing to regret. The lavender you shoveled down will still be useful if you collect it and dry it."

"What's the purpose?" Fan Ming asked while collecting the shoveled lavender.

"It can be used as a spice after it is dried. Chop it up and put it in your pillow. It not only has a pleasant aroma, but also can soothe your eyes and calm your mind. It will make you sleep sweetly at night and have a scent on your hair during the day." Zhang Taiping replied.

"Can you put some on top of your clothes?" Fan Ming asked again.

"Of course." Zhang Taiping said with a smile, "You can also make a pair of straw insoles and put them inside the shoes, so that there will be no smell inside the shoes."

"There is no odor inside my shoes." Fan Ming rolled her eyes at Zhang Taiping and said angrily.

"Well, that's a mistake. You should put a pair of these insoles inside my shoes." Zhang Taiping said with a smile.

Nearly ten people started working together, and in a short time they dug a big pit three meters square. Then they put the roots of the osmanthus tree in the pit and stood it upright.

Fill it with soil.

After loading and filming, Zhang Taiping took a wooden bucket and carried a few loads of water into the pond, symbolically pampering the roots of the osmanthus tree. This was just a confusing move. What can really guarantee the survival of the osmanthus tree is

Space spring water, but now it is inconvenient to water the spring water in front of so many people, so it can only be watered in the dead of night when people are quiet.

After planting the tree, Zhang Taiping gave each of the helpers a pack of good cigarettes, and also gave the owner of the car 200 yuan for the fare. Together, they called the house and entertained them with tea and fruit. The fruit was purple in color from the space station.

The top-quality fruits are picked, and the tea is natural honeysuckle tea that has not been processed.

For many young people, honeysuckle tea is very common in mountain villages, so there is no surprised expression on their faces.

But Zheng Decai and Li Xiao were a little surprised. Zheng Decai asked: "This is unfried honeysuckle tea, is it wild?"

Zhang Taiping nodded: "The new tea just picked the day before yesterday, the best quality picked with morning dew, hasn't had time to fry yet."

Li Xiao took a sip and praised: "It's really good."

After sitting for a while, all the men except Zhang Gouwa left.

Zhang Taiping took Zheng Decai and they walked around the garden, and the beautiful scenery made the two of them full of praise.

Li Xiao praised: "With hot springs in the village, the scenery here will become a highlight, especially the wooden houses on Peach Blossom Mountain which are the finishing touch. If people who come here to soak in the hot springs live on the mountain,

I experienced the tranquil and quiet life in the mountains in one night, and I will definitely come back a second or third time.”

The two of them admired the scenery in the garden and were amazed at the animals they saw, how beautiful and rare they were, and how smart they were.

After taking a general look at the scenery in the garden, Zheng Decai said: "Let us take a look at the flowers you cultivated."

"Okay, it's in the backyard." Zhang Taiping led the two of them into the backyard.

The scenery and novel structures that come into view after entering can't help but make the next year's eyes light up and make people say some words of admiration and exclamation.

An eel emerged from the mud under the canal in the courtyard and then burrowed in. Li Xiao saw it.

"Hey! Is this an eel?"

Zhang Taiping nodded: "There are fish and eels in the pond outside. The water here is connected to the pond outside, and fish and eels will also come in."

"Is this considered wild?" Li Xiao asked again.

"I haven't taken care of the wild ones since they were put in the pond, so they are no different from the wild ones." Zhang Taiping replied.

"I'll take one with me when I leave later."

Zheng Decai also said: "I'll take one too, and I'll take two of these black fish too."

Zhang Taiping smiled: "No problem."

After walking around the yard, we came to the area where flowers were planted. There were many kinds of flowers on it, including orchids transplanted by Zhang Taiping in the mountains, and chrysanthemums of different colors and shapes. The two of them were shocked.

The largest ones are three pots of camellia placed on the back window sill.

"Is this the camellia you cultivated carefully?" Zheng Decai asked.

Zhang Taiping nodded: "That's right. I haven't paid too much attention to it. I can only say that I am taking care of it, but I can't say that I am careful."

The two of them looked at each other. The camellia grew so well without careful cultivation. What would happen if it was carefully cultivated?

It was getting late, and the two of them were preparing to leave. They had come here today to enjoy a lot of beautiful scenery, but they were also shocked a lot.

When Zheng Decai left with the eels and fish he bought, he suddenly remembered something. He turned around and said to Zhang Taiping: "Brother Zhang, can you sell us some more honeysuckle?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Taiping shouted into the house: "Ling'er, take out the honeysuckle under the window sill."

After a while, Ye Ling came out with a dustpan.

Zhang Taiping said: "These are newly picked in the morning this morning. They are all top-quality honeysuckle before the sun rises and the morning dew has not dispersed. This flower can be dried in the shade but not exposed to the sun. It is still damp now. It will hurt me when I go back and put it in a cool place to dry in the open.

.”

Each of them was given two taels of bag. Calculated based on the price of one hundred yuan per catty, two taels was equivalent to twenty yuan. Zhang Taiping did not accept the money.

ps: A very tragic thing happened today. After I returned to my hometown, I realized that I had forgotten to bring the charger for my small notebook. So this chapter was based on the code in the battery. Now it is out of power. I went out to borrow one at night.

If you can borrow a charger of the same model tomorrow, it will be delivered on time. If you can't borrow it, it will most likely be late or not available tomorrow.

There is a possibility that the update will be interrupted for a day, so I will mention it in advance. Of course, I will try my best to update continuously, but if I really can’t find the power supply, I can only ask for your forgiveness.

Finally, I’m asking for the last flowers of this month!
