Chapter 175: Quiet Night

"Okay, but you have to rent me the rocky slopes east of Qinglongwa hills!" Wen Xu immediately made a request.

"What do you want that rocky slope for?" Shi Shangzhen asked curiously.

Before Wen Xu could speak, Shi Shangzhen began to mutter: "What you want must be good things. Let's do this, there are 30,000 yuan a year on the rocky slope!"

"Why don't you go and grab it? I'll rent the forest land directly. Who wants the rocky slopes over there? Besides, how big is that stone slope? It's almost the same for renting five such a large place for 30,000 yuan a year." Wen Xu stopped doing it immediately.

"Then tell me what you want to do for the rocky slopes?"

Shi Shangzhen also knew that the rocky slopes were of no use, unless they were mined and set up a quarry. However, the quarry now has regular approval documents, and even if they were secretly harvested, there were not many people who had the courage to do so.

Of course, Shi Shangzhen didn't believe that Wenxu wanted to set up a quarry on Shipo. This person had high requirements for the environment and could not do such a bad thing.

Wen Xu said: "It's nothing to tell you. I just want to plant grapes on the other side of the stone slope!"

"Grow grapes? There is not much soil there, and grapes can grow from the cracks of the rocks?" Shi Shangzhen was a little surprised.

Wen Xu smiled and said, "Let's try it. Cypress trees can be emitted from the cliffs. No matter what you do in the cracks of the rocks, you can't plant grapes. Besides, there is not no mud there, and there is still a little mud in the bumpy pits. Just take a look!"

When he was at Mingzhu, Wen Xu began to think about growing grapes. He originally thought that he would plant them in the forest he rented, but when he thought that the place was not suitable for the growth of grapes, the sun was not enough, and when he thought that the sun was enough, he found that he had been placed at home by others. Even if there were one or two suitable pieces, Shi Shangzhen was unlikely to let go. Her village committee was counting on the income from this piece. After thinking about it, there were only a small piece of land in Shipo. Fortunately, Wen Xu didn’t have many grapes to plant, and how many grapes could he need for the wine he brewed and drank by himself!

"Then I will discuss this matter with the village committee tomorrow!" Shi Shangzhen said.

Wen Xu said scoundrel after hearing this: "We have to discuss it, then you can wait for me to pay the contract fee every year next year!"

"You guy!" Shi Shangzhen pointed at Wen Xu for a second or two and sighed: "Forget it, in principle, can I promise you?"

"We should have said that a long time ago. If there was a small wine now, we should have one left!" Wen Xu said.

Shi Shangzhen curled his lips: "How many grapes can you grow in that place? How much money can you sell grapes? I guess you don't like it? You must have something to hide from me!"

Wen Xu had nothing to hide, so he said directly: "I'm going to make wine. Is the wine going down now, what do you think?"

Shi Shangzhen gave Wen Xu a blank look: "You can really make it. You will make bread and wine at a time. Why don't you go to heaven?"

When Wen Xu heard Shi Shangzhen talking about bread, he patted his thigh: "I forgot if you don't mention this. I will bake a batch of bread tomorrow and deliver it to Mingzhu for my apprentice!"

Suddenly, Wen Xu thought of Zhao Xiaoyue waiting for her bread when she was returning Mingzhu.

"You have any disciples?" Xu Jingrong also opened her eyes wide this time.

"My colleague in Mingzhu is always calling me a master, so I'll take care of you!" Wen Xu explained with a smile, then put down his chopsticks and rubbed his stomach.

"I'm full!"

After saying that, he sat at the table waiting for Shi Shangzhen and Xu Jingrong to finish eating.

"What are you watching us?" Shi Shangzhen was a little furious by Wen Xu's eyes that swept to him from time to time. He grabbed a large piece of ribs into his pot. He looked up and saw Wen Xu and asked immediately.

Wen Xu said: "When you finish eating, I will put the table and wash dishes, and then I will have to close the greenhouse glass tent!"

"You go first after you finish your meal. What's the matter? I'm afraid that Jing Rong and I will carry your door away. Besides, you should cook the food. Isn't it the same rule for me to wash the bowl?" Shi Shangzhen said.

When he heard that someone had contracted the bowl, and Shi Shangzhen was much more reliable than his girlfriend in this regard. The man could at least two of them brushed eight bowls. He was really not a housework item, but Shi Shangzhen was too relieved to do Wenxu.

"Okay, let's leave the rest of the work to you!" Wen Xu said, slapped his legs and stood up from the bench and walked out of the pot house.

As soon as Wen Xu left, the scum immediately raised his head alertly and looked at Wen Xu's back. He looked at the remaining bones and broth in his food bowl, soaked rice with a little reluctance. His head turned back and forth several times. When Wen Xu's back disappeared at the door, the scum made a decision, bit the largest bone in the bowl and held it in his mouth, and jumped out and chased Wen Xu's back.

I guess this guy has figured it out. It is better to keep Wen Xu's insurance than to keep a food bowl!

A bright moon hangs high in the night sky, illuminating the night of the entire mountain village. Wen Xu turned his head and saw the scum following his shadow, holding a bone in his mouth and looking thief.

"Oh! You are so stupid that no one else!"

After saying that, Wen Xu bent down, grabbed the two fleshy ears of the scum twice, and continued to raise his foot toward his greenhouse.

The refreshing and refreshing breeze blew into the body, which was indescribable. The most important thing was that the air was sucked into the lungs, filled with a scent of soil mixed with grass. Wen Xu sucked several times in a row, thinking of expelling the pm2.5 that had been sucked in Mingzhu for two weeks as soon as possible.

As soon as I left the village, I saw a row of air lamps hanging from the greenhouse construction site in the distance, which was very bright. It was like a small artificial moon hanging in the distance, bringing a few meters in a circle of light and mist, and it was like a giant fireflies rising from afar, brightly dotted on the curtain of the deep black mountains in the distance.

Looking at this scene, Wen Xu couldn't help but say, "Scum, if you change you to a white cow, I ride the white cow so slowly in the moonlight, hold a pot of wine in my left hand, and put a few plates of side dishes with wine on the cow's back, that would be full of style!"

"Aowu!" The scum heard Wen Xu calling him, put down the weeds on the roadside, leaned over Wen Xu's legs, and started acting coquettishly again.

Wen Xu gently kicked the guy with his calf twice, and then the scum ran left and right to bite the grass on the left, and then pulled the stem on the right. He didn't know what was fun about this, but he actually made this guy have fun.

It turns out that the stupid dog is so happy! Wen Xu sighed at the scum who looks like ADHD.

With the scum, Wenxu walked on the field path and came to his own greenhouse. He entered Greenhouse No. 1 and began to turn the reel of the greenhouse. With a click, when the first glass tent was closed, the few little birds immediately flapped their wings and flew out of the second window.

As the first round of little birds flew up, the whole greenhouse was like a stone thrown from the quiet lake, and it immediately became lively. More and more little tits began to fly, and the sound of flapping wings could be heard at any time. It would be so loud in the night.

As Wen Xu locked up more glass tents, the less birds cried in the greenhouse. When Wen Xu turned off the last glass tent, the entire greenhouse returned to tranquility again. The crisp bird vocals just now could no longer be heard. Only the bright moonlight was seen, and the shadows of fruits and vegetables in the greenhouse were cast on the ground through the glass, so clear that the entire edge was clearly visible.

From Shed No. 1 to the last shed, after more than a dozen sheds came down, sweat beads of sweat had already emerged from Wenxu. When he walked out of the last greenhouse, Wenxu had already added a glass of water in his hand, and gently drank a sip of warm space water. Wenxu leaned directly against the wall of the greenhouse, looking at the villagers who were busy under the air lamps not far away.

Today, not only women, but also half-aged children, and even the elderly can be seen. Almost all the whole family is dispatched. They transported the blue bricks and steel bars for their own greenhouses to the near-site just to save workers' transportation time so that their greenhouses can be completed sooner and plant their own vegetables sooner!

In the greenhouse where the walls have been built, you can see construction workers in the engineering team. They also rely on the light emitted by the air lamp to do their own work and rush to make progress in the project.

At this time, Wenxu saw that everyone was working hard!

But among the expressions and voices of the crowd, Wen Xu seemed to hear the difference between the villagers and Mingzhu's busy white-collar workers. In Wen Xu's opinion, many people lacked anger. They often frowned and were just trying to make a living, as if it was a mechanical one. The villagers who were pushing a car and holding bricks to do physical work, their laughter was very penetrating and listening to the truth. Even the boys who scolded their playful house had a sense of intimacy. Almost everyone had a smile on their faces, and a smile of hope in sincerity.

At this time, Wen Xu, as a bystander, quietly watched the busy scene of the greenhouse construction site for a while, then reached out to push a grass path, held it in his hand, peeled off the skin from the grass stem, and swung it casually in the air with a grass pole in his hand, happily sang a small song.

"Outside the Great Wall, beside the ancient road, the grass is green and the sky... um... um um"
