Chapter 1042 Wilderness
In the middle of nowhere, as far as the eye could see, there was no one.
Xia Jian and Chen Xiaolan pushed aside the grass in front of them and walked down the mountain step by step. Chen Xiaolan looked back at Xia Jian and said, "There are dozens of acres of wasteland at the foot of the mountain that belong to our Shuijing Village."
Xia Jian looked at the thorns all over the hillside and said, "If you want to develop this place, you really need to work hard. First, you need to build roads, and secondly, you need to develop all the barren slopes. I wonder if you are ready for this."
?”
"Village Chief Chen has held a mobilization meeting, and everyone is very motivated. Anyway, there are hundreds of people in Shuijing Village. If all of them are mobilized, the problem shouldn't be too big." Just after Chen Xiaolan finished speaking, she stood up from the grass.
A wild boar jumped out. This guy had a green mouth and fangs, and it looked extremely scary.
Women are usually frightened at this time. Before Xia Jian could take action, Chen Xiaolan rushed over and got into Xia Jian's arms.
on the weeds.
Maybe the wild boar was frightened by humans. The guy ran away and disappeared. Chen Xiaolan hugged Xia Jian tightly and refused to let go. The two of them lay in the long wormwood and could only see the blue sky. This was still
It was like heaven made a quilt and made a bed. As soon as Xia Jian turned over, he pressed on top of it.
Chen Xiaolan struggled gently, and the two of them hugged each other tighter and tighter. As the grass swayed, the gentle gasps of the man and woman could be heard. This scene was really heart-pounding to listen to.
When Lin Wei returned to the car, she was out of breath from exhaustion. Guo Meili laughed and said: "Miss Lin, to work with our Mr.
She’s human”
"Thank you, Mr. Guo, for reminding me. I will exercise hard next time." Lin Wei said and sat in the back seat. She secretly took off her shoes and saw two blood blisters on her toes.
, no wonder it hurts so much.
Guo Meili looked into the distance, looking at the returning figures of Xia Jian and Chen Xiaolan, but she looked for a long time and still didn't see them. Didn't she know that at this time, Xia Jian and Chen Xiaolan were doing beautiful things in the wormwood.
It wasn't until the sun was about to set that Xia Jian and Chen Xiaolan came back. Guo Meili looked at it and said to Xia Jian anxiously: "What are you doing? Why have you been waiting for so long? We are all anxious."
As soon as Guo Meili said the words, she realized that she might have said the wrong thing, but Xia Jian was calm. He took a breath and said: "There are dozens of acres of wasteland at the foot of the mountain, all flat land, and there is a road at the foot of the mountain.
There is no road to the river, so you have to climb up through wormwood and thorns. Do you think it can be done quickly?"
Women are women after all. When Guo Meili asked, Chen Xiaolan lowered her head uncomfortably, and my face turned slightly red. This scene cannot escape Guo Meili's eyes.
Fortunately, Guo Meili didn't pay attention and got into the car. When the car arrived at the door of Chen Xiaolan's house, Guo Meili stopped the car and let Chen Xiaolan get out of the car.
“Mr.
Xia Jian's reply.
Xia Jian thought for a while and said: "Let's do this! You and Village Chief Chen discuss it. If we can build the road and open up wasteland, we will do it."
"Okay! As long as you say this," Chen Xiaolan finished speaking and quickly disappeared into the night.
Guo Meili said with a smile while driving the car: "The entire wasteland needs to build roads and open up wasteland. This is a big project!"
"It depends on the attitude of the people in Shuijing Village. If they can really develop this barren mountain for me, we will cooperate with them. It may be a big business opportunity." Xia Jian said this without any confidence.
Because when he saw the actual situation today, his heart still shrank.
Guo Meili couldn't help but ask again: "Should I still invest in growing apples? Why do I feel a bit unreliable?"
"No! Plant Sichuan peppercorns," Xia Jian said simply.
Guo Meili laughed and said: "Why didn't I think of this? I don't think it's possible to grow apples, but it's different to grow peppercorns, because the initial investment for peppercorns is relatively small. It's not very heavy after all, but the purchase price from other places
It’s not low, it’s a good idea.”
Lin Wei was sitting in the back row and had been listening to the conversation between Xia Jian and Guo Meili. She was still blank on this topic. She had to learn it hard, otherwise it would be difficult to work next to Xia Jian.
While talking, the car had arrived at the entrance of Xiping Village. Guo Meili stopped the car and asked: "Mr. Xia! Are you going home or going to the city?"
"Go back to the city! There are too many things to do. Come back when you are done." Xia Jian said in a low voice.
Guo Meili nodded and drove directly back to Pingdu City. On the roadside, the three of them found a restaurant. Xia Jian glanced at Lin Wei, who looked tired, and said with a smile: "How was it?
Are you a little out of habit?"
"I'm just a little tired. Maybe it's because I haven't driven for a long time. I think I'll get used to it soon," Lin Wei said sheepishly.
Guo Meili hurriedly smiled and said: "What's the matter? I'll just go out more often and get some exercise. When Xi Zhen first arrived here, she didn't get used to it. As a result, after staying for a while, she didn't want to go back to Pingdu City."
Lin Wei nodded and glanced at Xia Jian secretly. Xia Jian responded and said, "Well! Your problem now is physical fitness. You need to get up early every day and exercise well."
While the three of them were talking, the food was served. Maybe because they were hungry, everyone ate very enthusiastically. Xia Jian felt that Lin Wei's appetite had also increased a lot.
After returning home after dinner, Guo Meili arranged for Lin Wei to sleep in Xizhen's room, but she kept chatting with Xia Jian until after eleven o'clock, she turned off the light and got into Xia Jian's room.
house.
For the newcomer Lin Wei, she knew nothing about this. The next morning, before dawn, Guo Meili secretly sneaked back to her room.
While eating breakfast, Xia Jian glanced at Lin Wei and asked with a smile: "How is it? Is it better?"
"Much better, more energetic. Because I haven't driven for such a long time in a long time, so I am a little nervous and my energy is too concentrated." Lin Wei said and smiled secretly.
Guo Meili came down a little late, and Xia Jian naturally knew why she came down late. But Lin Wei, who was kept in the dark, smiled and asked Guo Meili: "Mr. Guo! Did you not sleep well last night?"
"Yeah!" Guo Meili responded casually, then lowered his head and started eating breakfast. Xia Jian was happy in his heart, but on the surface he pretended to be nonchalant.
As soon as they returned to Donglin Building, several people were busy. Lin Wei was a novice, and she had to start from scratch on many things. Fortunately, Guo Meili sent someone familiar with the business to guide her.
After Xia Jian sat in his office and processed some documents, he began to think about Shuijing Village, because he could see from Chen Xiaolan's expression that this woman really wanted to do something big in Shuijing Village.
Like she said herself, she wants to become the second Zhao Hong.
If that was the case, then he had to contact the pepper seedlings as soon as possible. When he thought of this, he made a few calls, but this thing was only available in the northwest and southwest, and could not be found in other places.
There was no other way, so Xia Jian called Wang Lin and asked her to contact Zanthoxylum bungeanum seedlings suitable for planting in the northwest. Not only were they of good varieties, but they also came from regular sources. In this way, the Zanthoxylum bungeanum seedlings that grew would be guaranteed.
When he just finished handling this matter, he received a call from Ouyang Hong. Ouyang Hong asked a little unhappy on the phone: "When will you come to Pingdu City?"
"I arrived yesterday, what happened? Is there something urgent?" Xia Jian asked knowingly.
When Ouyang Hong heard this, she said angrily: "What do you mean? You didn't say a word when you came. Let me ask you, is this the honorary mayor of you?"
"Oops! Please stop saying that. I went to Shuijing Village as soon as I arrived yesterday and was so busy that I didn't come back until evening." Xia Jian told Ouyang Hong on the phone about his hardships.
Ouyang Hong laughed and asked on the phone: "You went to Shuijing Village? Did you fall in love with some older girl or younger wife again? I can tell you that you are a romantic, but you can't mess around in the village.
Come on, this is a matter of reputation.”
"Oh! Where did you go?" Xia Jian said. In fact, he was quite surprised in his heart. How could these women's sixth sense be so powerful?
Ouyang Hong then sighed on the phone and said, "It's a bit redundant for me to say this. It's all you like, so tell me, are you going to do something else in Shuijing Village?"
"Well! You guessed it right. There is a barren mountain in Shuijing Village. The land there used to be cultivated land, but now it is all barren. I did an on-site inspection yesterday and found that the land is really good. It is suitable for planting Sichuan peppercorns and the area is large.
It's not small. If this place can be developed, the water wells can lift the whole village out of poverty in three to five years," Xia Jian said confidently on the phone.
When Ouyang Hong heard this, she immediately became interested. She hurriedly said: "Stop talking, we will go to Pingyang Town later, because there are many things in the town waiting for us to study together. Then you can talk about Shuijing Village."
thing"
"Let's go now! It's almost time to eat," Xia Jian said as he glanced at his watch.
Ouyang Hong raised her voice on the phone and said: "I just know how to eat. When I think about Donglin Township, I can't sleep. What kind of life do you think we live every day? Where are they? Others don't know, but you should know. So today at noon
Let's have this meal in Pingyang Town. A bowl of noodles should be fine!" After Ouyang Hong finished speaking, she hung up the phone without waiting for Xia Jian to speak.
Hey! This Ouyang Hong has tied the happiness of the people of Pingdu City to him. You are the mayor, I am just a commoner in Pingdu City, and at best I am just a wage earner. Xia Jian thought in his heart
He couldn't help but laugh.
At this time, Guo Meili walked in. When she saw Xia Jian like this, she smiled and asked, "What makes you so happy?"
