614 Zeng Gong's goal
After a rough turn, one ten-thousandth of the beauty of Qinglian Ranch was not seen, and it was getting late, Zeng Gong took Qian Yong and his party back to the villa. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Except for Qian Yong, the other entourages said goodbye and left with a smile, when they came, they booked a room in the hotel in Livingston, Qian Yong as an elder, Zeng Gong naturally would not let him live in the hotel, not to mention that the main event had not yet begun.
After a little preparation, Zeng Gong took a few people up in a boat and walked along a small stream on the side of the villa.
The boat is a typical canopy ship, the whole body is made of iron birch with a diameter of more than two meters at breast height, only the core material is taken, the natural shade is dried, the secret tung oil is continuously brushed nine hundred and eighty-one times, and then connected by a special method, never see an iron nail, and then brushed nine times with the secret tung oil, just like a whole, the canopy is made of gold inlaid jade bamboo, and the deck is made of gloomy teak after special treatment, in short, the production process is very complicated.
It is said that after the Eight-Nation Alliance came to China, the American merchants who came with it bought it from the landlords in the Shaoxing area and brought it to the United States.
"Xiao Zeng, you are a canopy boat, you look a lot older. Qian Yong jumped on the canopy boat and looked around with interest, and couldn't help asking.
"I don't know the specifics, but the ship was already in the United States at the end of the Qing Dynasty. Zeng Gong cleared his throat and said that he had obtained the Cruze Ranch through gambling, and the boat was floating quietly in the lake, and no one paid any attention to it.
"Late Qing Dynasty?" Qian Yong couldn't help but feel a little lighter, this is an antique, especially when the traditional awning boat making method is on the verge of extinction, and now this awning boat is even more precious.
"Uncle Chamber, this boat is very sturdy, and I often drive it to fish. Zeng Gong saw it, and said with some tears and laughter.
"Sturdy?" Qian Yong glanced at Zeng Gong strangely, and it is estimated that he is the only one in the world who doesn't care.
Zeng Gong shook his head, paddled the oars, and stirred up a string of splashes on the water, and the boat rode the wind and waves, moving sensitively along the winding river.
Rafting on the water, the breeze is coming.
The fragrant air is slowly moving, the world becomes wide, the mood is flying, the mood is high, Qian Yong is looking forward to the Longyuan Shengxue in Zeng Gong's mouth, at this moment he feels that if Zeng Gong is not a nephew, he is definitely a proper confidant, tasting tea is like tasting life, knowing people, good tea, good scenery, this is serious.
The afternoon sun is not blazing, as Montana has always been, the summer is not so difficult, the temperature is mild, and the heat above 30 degrees rarely occurs, especially in the mountainous areas, the Rocky Mountains not only block the cold snap from the north, but also block the arrival of warm air from the south.
It is actually a small lake, it should be the daffodil grooming place, a snail in the center of the green daisy mirror, the canopy boat breaks the tranquility here, countless water birds rise into the air, the broken waves are sparkling, flashing like a flying arrow-like light, several small islands in the lake rise from the ground, the wooden stacks are hooked, the eaves are pecked high, and the corridor is empty.
Seven stars with the moon, fluttering with the wind of nothingness, free and easy, a slight breeze such as a thousand miles of fast, the air of Haoran surging up, the horizontal lance song, the moon alone, sprinkled and gone, fluttering misty, Qionglou Yuyu asked the lamp, eight water pavilions, as if the world is independent of the immortals, as others in the world.
Unexpectedly, Zeng Gong did not stop, bolted the boat to the simple dock of the water pavilion, and continued to move along the wooden stack, but at the end was a fountain complex, which was built by Zeng Gong in imitation of the artistic style of the big water method, but it was more spectacular, there were as many as eighteen layers, the clouds were unintentional to go out of Xiu, the smoke and light condensed and the twilight mountain purple, the slender song condensed and the white clouds contained, eighteen levels, eighteen kinds of beauty, but unfortunately the whole building has not been completed, the three-story platform has been full of luxury.
"Brother Zeng, I've been to your ranch many times, and I've never heard of you building a pavilion here. Qian Hui asked in surprise.
He has to travel back and forth to the United States several times a year, and each time he will go to Qinglian Ranch to live for a few days, and he still knows a thing or two about the big and small things in the ranch, and Zeng Gong has never confided in the construction here.
"Who said I didn't tell you? Didn't I tell you to build a new villa? Zeng Gong said angrily.
"Villa?" Qian Hui's eyes widened, is this a villa?
"Of course it's a villa, what do you want, I'm not talking about those petty villas, to be exact, I'm going to build a garden. Zeng Gong said as a matter of course.
"Old Summer Palace?" Qian Yong asked in surprise.
"It's not. Zeng Gong shook his head, the Old Summer Palace is indeed an extremely exquisite garden, and he also admits that there is a style of the Old Summer Palace in it.
"The whole valley and the halfway up the mountain are my goal, and it's not up to me to how far I can cultivate. Zeng Gong paused and said.
The whole valley, the three of them couldn't help but gasp, the valley is indeed not big, but if you add the buildings in the middle of the mountain, the scale will definitely exceed the Old Summer Palace, Zeng Gong's ambition is too big.
"Third child, can you afford to do this ranch?" Liu Tao couldn't help but leak a trace of worry when he heard this, although his plan was good, there were still some things that were beyond the reach of manpower, such as the broken capital chain.
"Don't worry, second brother, part of the profits of Qinglian Ranch will be repaid to the bank, part of the profits will maintain the development of Qinglian Ranch, and the rest is the money for building the garden, and I will control the proportions. Zeng Gong said confidently that he would not do anything to fish for the sake of the garden.
"You can do it yourself, the architects in China are better at repairing the garden, if you have any difficulties, you can tell me and Qian Hui, we really can't solve it, and Uncle Qian is here." Liu Tao nodded, Qian Hui is very rational in everything he does, since Zeng Gong said his plan, he must abide by it.
"Okay, you little rabbit, you got me in all at once. Qian Yong couldn't help but laugh and scolded when he heard this: "However, Xiao Zeng's idea is good, if there is anything to help, I will never refuse." ”
Zeng Gong couldn't help but smirk when he heard this, he designed and built the whole garden, what was missing, not money, but talents, especially talents in ancient buildings, it was best to learn from China and the West, Liu Tao and Qian Hui didn't have such a big face for such people, and now that Qian Yong personally promised, his heart was much more down-to-earth.
"Don't be complacent, you kid, if your Dragon Garden Shengxue is not worthy of its name, my words just now will be invalidated. Qian Yong directly poured cold water on Zeng Gong who got carried away.
"Then Uncle Qian is waiting to find me someone. Zeng Gong replied confidently. (To be continued.) )
