Honghu Village is popular again. As the temperature drops, fewer tourists are going to dive. But another piece of news that shocked the world is that Honghu Village has discovered ancient ruins from the Tang and Song dynasties.

This news is like dropping a heavy bomb into a calm lake, splashing water everywhere and then quickly filling the vacuum created by the bomb.

This is not the case. Less than ten days after the scientific expedition team led by Director Yao entered the site, many stone bricks, ancient city walls, traces of house construction, some stone pillars, furniture, and stone slabs with marks on the street pavement were discovered again in the place where the broken bricks were originally found. The appearance of these objects fully proves that this site is an ancient city.

The degree of excavation and the intensity of protection have increased with the exploration of more surprises, and the number of professionals added has become larger. At first, there were less than 30 people in the team, including the armed police soldiers, and later it suddenly increased to about 100.

The area of ​​wasteland contracted by Gu Hongyu that was occupied was getting larger and larger. At first, it was only a few dozen square meters, then hundreds of square meters, and now it has an area of ​​more than 3 mu. However, as the exploration work unfolds, this is far from the final result.

He also cooperated with the scientific research work very well. The occupied land was not hindered at all. Even the saplings planted a few days ago that hindered the progress of the excavation work were transplanted again. A large piece of wasteland was reserved around it without digging tree pits.

However, what made him happy was that the excavation direction of the ruins of this ancient city extended beyond the scope of his contract, and this direction has always been along the edge of the Red Lake towards the swamp.

Good news kept coming out every day. However, Gu Hongyu only paid attention to the progress of the archaeological work. He was still busy planting trees every day. The third batch of fruit tree seedlings had been transported back and were now in his space. They had also been stimulated, but the original tree pits were not enough for the wasteland because of the excavation of the ruins.

Gu Hongyu had no choice but to find the town and re-contract the wasteland adjacent to the original plot. Now Honghu Village has made a lot of noise, and some people in the town are jealous, but he has Peng Minghao's relationship. The current town party secretary also hopes that Gu Hongyu can make a career. He has been promoted with these political achievements, so he overcame all objections. He still leased it to Gu Hongyu at the original price.

The current orchard is divided into two because of the ancient ruins. One side has an area of ​​about two square kilometers, and the other side, plus the land newly contracted by Gu Hongyu, is more than the original whole piece, reaching 8 square kilometers. This time he is determined to make the orchard bigger and stronger.

If you can get some gimmicks on the ancient ruins. The influence of the orchard next to the ruins is also huge. It's not afraid of not knowing the goods, but it's afraid of comparing the goods. As long as tourists taste the various fruits produced in the orchard, Gu Hongyu has the confidence to turn these tourists into customers of his best-selling fruits.

As soon as the new contracted land was obtained, the vigorous digging of tree pits and planting of fruit trees once again became noisy in the village. With the planting of the fruit seedlings completed, Gu Hongyu's father basically recruited all the employees for the orchard.

When a huge crowd of nearly 200 people stood in front of Gu Hongyu, there was a big black circle just by looking at the heads. The villagers of Ma'aozi Village were more excited than Gu Hongyu, because they would also have a stable income of more than 2,000 yuan a month in the future.

It was far from enough to finish all these. After all, it was an orchard with an area of ​​more than ten square kilometers. The harvest season of cockscomb fruit was different, but when it came to harvest, these 200 people were not enough. He was thinking about whether to use the most advanced technology. If mechanical fruit picking can be implemented, it should be resolutely used.

In addition, the road in the middle of the orchard must be hardened. When planning, Gu Hongyu reserved a passage in the orchard in advance, with a width of 6 meters, so that even two large trucks could easily avoid driving, but this was another huge investment!

Many things can be postponed temporarily, but there is one thing Gu Hongyu must do immediately, that is, to purchase mulch film. Many of the fruit seedlings have just been planted and cannot withstand the cold climate. If no insulation measures are taken, some of them may die.

Although Gu Hongyu knows that these saplings will not die, and he can easily see the vitality of the planted saplings with his proficiency in wood magic, it is Uncle Azha's suggestion to lay the mulch film. They usually plant trees in autumn like this. If Gu Hongyu does it too conspicuously, won't he be suspected!

The good news is that the mulch film is not expensive. It only costs 2 or 3 cents for a tree. Gu Hongyu thinks it is worth spending more than 200,000. At least the fruit seedlings will grow very fast in the spring of next year after protection. If not, Gu Hongyu will add space water to them.

By the way, several large enough pools should be built in many key locations in the orchard to ensure that the fruit trees can get enough water in the dry season. Gu Hongyu also added space spring water to the pool.

Pipeline laying and water tanks are another expense. Money, money, money. Gu Hongyu feels that he is about to go bankrupt, but fortunately the main investment has been paid off, otherwise he would be ready to back out.

Secretly cheering himself up, since it has come to this point, no matter what - stand up.

Dingling, the phone rang, Gu Hongyu picked up the phone: "Xiaoyu, hurry to the ancient city ruins, there is a major discovery!"

The call was from his father, who hung up after saying a word, but hearing his excited voice, Gu Hongyu immediately ran towards the ruins.

Since the excavation of the ancient city ruins, even with strict perimeter security, many tourists still come to watch. The excavation site is very open, and many places can still feast the eyes of tourists.

Seeing Gu Hongyu easily enter the exploration site, some tourists still muttered in dissatisfaction: "Damn, what is the identity of that person? He got in so easily. Why don't we try it too?"

"You don't even know him. You are too out of touch with the news!" A tourist next to him heard his mumbling and smiled strangely.

"He is very famous. Is he from the scientific expedition team or the government? Are you a local?" The tourist who spoke first was deeply puzzled.

Another tourist felt a headache. When he met such a newbie, he could only reveal the answer directly: "You haven't been to the website, right? The one who just went in is the owner of the farm. Now the big lake in the village is contracted by him, and even the place where we are standing now is contracted by him."

"Ah, why didn't you say it earlier? If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have begged him to take us in. You are really..." This weirdo didn't appreciate other people's explanations but blamed them instead.

"..." The other person didn't know what to say at all!

This was the second time that Gu Hongyu had walked into the scientific expedition site. The ancient city ruins were located in the desert. Because the filling material in the middle of the ruins was all yellow sand and fine gravel, the progress of the excavation was extremely fast.

Once he entered the interior of the ancient city ruins, Gu Hongyu immediately felt the breath of ancient vicissitudes. Some pits had very deep bottoms, and the vertical section height with the top land was more than three meters. There were many remaining city walls, stone pillars, and dilapidated houses.

Gu Hongyu was walking along the stone slab road preserved in ancient times. It was unknown how long this stone slab road was. It was said that it had been cleared for hundreds of meters. It was at the end of the stone slab road that many scientific expedition team members gathered at a broken wall.

Soon an ancient corpse appeared in front of Gu Hongyu. This was the first time that human bones were excavated since the excavation. After planting trees, his father had been accompanying the scientific expedition team these days, simply assisting the scientific expedition team in doing some chores, which was also a fun way to avoid being bored!

When his father saw Gu Hongyu, he didn't say anything but pointed at the corpse. He didn't know why the corpse was well preserved. It might be that the low humidity here turned him into a mummy. Some parts of his body were wrapped in a layer of cloth, which was quite difficult.

The whole corpse had not been completely lifted up. It was in a back-up position with its arms bent downward, as if it was protecting something.

Director Yao and other scientific expedition team members did not continue to work but were discussing something. Gu Hongyu knew nothing about archaeology and did not go over. Instead, he looked at the surrounding buildings where the corpse was.

There were many broken bricks and stones around. Through understanding the ancient city ruins, there were not exquisite bricks everywhere. These bricks appeared in a small number of very wealthy homes, and they could only be found in the large courtyards in the ancient city.

It seems that the courtyard where the corpse was originally located should be a wealthy family, but whether the corpse was from this courtyard or from other places, these may be the scientific expedition team has no clue now, let alone Gu Hongyu!

His eyes swept over the bricks and stones and continued to turn. Several stone pillars were cleared by the scientific expedition team next to it. There was an octagonal stone table in the center of the stone pillar, and several stone benches were placed around the stone table. From this situation, it can be inferred that this place should be a pavilion built of stones.

"Xiao Gu, you are here. What did you find out?" Director Yao and Gu Hongyu's family have become familiar with each other in a few days. At this moment, he is officially asking Gu Hongyu!

Gu Hongyu scratched his head: "I know nothing about this. What can I see? In the end, it depends on you experts to make a move!"

"Haha, this is also true. To tell you the truth, when we continued to dig the corpse just now, we found a corpse under it. However, from our judgment, the corpse is a child. The appearance of this corpse is to protect the child!" Director Yao pointed at the corpse and said.

"Then what are you discussing?" Gu Hongyu asked puzzledly.

Director Yao smiled and said, "We were just trying to figure out what happened here. Why didn't we see anyone else? Suddenly, two corpses appeared here. We have come up with several reliable conclusions from this situation."

"Oh, what caused this?" Gu Hongyu gave full play to his curiosity.

"One possibility is that a devastating disaster may happen here and everyone else has left, but they are still reluctant to leave. Another possibility is that there are only two of them left in this city, and they also died in this sudden disaster!" Director Yao said dully!
