Chapter 687: The Great Druid
The bubbling water flows through the curved canal decorated with pebbles, and the flowers of different heights open early under the guidance of spotlights, and several butterflies stop on them in search of fresh nectar, as if the spring is coming to the rhythm of butterfly dancing bees.
It's just that if you look farther, you will find that this scene of the upper reaches of the clear spring stone is just a small artificially created world, and beyond the double-glazed walls, there is still a winter scene where the north wind whimpers and everything withers.
These butterflies, which are rarely seen in winter, are also transported from the south thousands of miles away. Thanks to the increasingly developed e-commerce, whether it is the cold air of the Arctic or the penguin feathers of the Antarctic, it is not a problem to buy some southern butterfly eggs online. As long as you pay attention, don't buy national first, second, and third-class protected animals.
In fact, there are only one and two levels of animals and plants protected by law, and the third level is a folk name, which refers to the terrestrial protected animals with beneficial economic and scientific research value stipulated by the Ministry of Forestry in 2000, referred to as "three animals".
Butterflies are found in all three catalogues, and with the exception of a few endangered because of habitat destruction, most of them are because they are beautiful and have been exploited for economic value (hunted and sold as specimens), resulting in increasingly scarce populations that have to be protected.
Therefore, it is actually very risky to buy beautiful butterflies, and if you are not careful, you will become a criminal, and even if you bring in netizens from all over the country to help you complain, it will be useless, and it will be a few years.
However, these butterflies are fine, they all come from licensed breeding farms, and they are not collected in the wild, so they will not violate the wildlife protection law.
With these flying elves, coupled with this carefully built curved sink, everything looks very literary and classical, and it can be used to carry out the meandering water flow in the legend of prosperity.
The popular game that ancient scholars and doctors liked to play when they went out camping, put a wine glass in the water and floated, then a glass of wine and a poem, and finally got together and published a book of poems or something to commemorate.
Of course, this kind of drinking and leisure activity is difficult to produce high-quality products, but it is remarkable to produce one occasionally, and it is the famous "Lanting Collection Preface" that has become more elegant and stylish.
The canal was clearly designed with this in mind, and the meandering aqueduct was specially circled around a person, and then carefully polished marble piers were placed around it, just so that everyone could play around the water.
Now there is a group of people sitting on the stone piers, happily playing the popular games of the new era.
"Call the landlord!"
"Don't double it!"
"Three-point! one-on-four!"
Well, it's actually a mobile version of the very popular poker game "Landlord Fight". Although it seems a little strange to play cards and mobile phones in offline games, there is no problem as long as you get used to it, and virtual cards can also effectively avoid cheating behaviors such as stealing cards, hiding cards, changing cards, etc., and can also avoid the situation that the craft is too trendy to throw the cards into the water and be submerged.
As for the problem of these looping game sound effects ruining the beautiful atmosphere and scenery of the place, turning a room full of friends into a noisy street barbecue stall, the host said that he didn't care, and all the guests also expressed their joy and expressed their appreciation for its "one red heart does not deteriorate".
In fact, if you sniff the air carefully, you should be able to find that there is indeed a small amount of cumin and butter left in it, but it is the traces left after the barbecue and hot pot here yesterday, and the greenhouse cannot be ventilated on a large scale, so as not to freeze the flowers and plants inside, so it is too normal to leave some barbecue smell hot pot smell or something.
"Three 9s! I don't know if Boss Dong found that the high-end club "Crystal Palace", which he had painstakingly built and famous in the county, would he run back angrily and scold someone for being violent and not understanding style?" While playing cards, Wei Wei started the topic with the smell of cumin in the air.
"Then I have to let him come back? Boss Dong is now a Dong Laolai, and he is not allowed to sit on planes and high-speed rail bullet trains, so he can't take ordinary express and long-distance buses, right?
These people are all high school classmates of Atletico Madrid, and many of them stayed in the local area to develop, so they naturally know a lot about Boss Dong, who was in the limelight in the past few years. Unlike Wei Wei, I only know that someone built a crystal palace, and then overturned the first and second leaders in the county, and thought that there was also an "anti-corruption heroine" in my hometown, but naturally she made a big red face and was ridiculed for a long time.
"Hurry up and play the cards, don't rub it off!" sent a message to urge the upper family to play the cards, Wei Wei turned to Atletico again: "Dear, isn't it a waste for you to be wasteful like this?"
Because of the built-in card counter and the ability to count cards is too strong, these card games do not allow Atletico to play by default, so as not to make others too frustrated if they don't win or lose. And he didn't care, sitting leisurely on the side with tea and water, and the staff made trouble, and he also had a lot of fun.
Hearing his question, Atletico said: "It's a bit of a loss, or I'll contract this place to you, whether it's growing vegetables and flowers, or raising fish and mushrooms, it's up to you." I'm not greedy, as long as you can cover the utility bills and then I can recover the cost of reconstruction. ”
"Don't, don't, forget it!" Wei Wei hurriedly waved his hand and refused: "My career in the capital has just improved a little, and I can't do without people for the time being." ”
"You can find someone to take care of it, anyway, this kind of management right contracting is not limited to two or three guarantees," Atletico said with a smile and squeezed the other party into a corner.
This large glass greenhouse was originally the owner's activity center of the Jade Mansion Villa Community, and the former boss Dong deliberately let people build a large glass building in order to start the fame of the Jade Mansion. Because it is built on a high place, its visual distance is very far, and you can see this glass house shining in the sun from as far as ten kilometers away. Then there was no need for the hired sailors to lead the rhythm, and the people of the county spontaneously gave it the good name of the Crystal Palace.
In order to please potential customers, Boss Dong has taken on many leisure and entertainment projects that are rare in inland areas, with the intention of creating his elegant residential community.
However, in the mouths of the people at the foot of the mountain, the Crystal Palace has become synonymous with the county's first gold grotto, and there are all kinds of luxury and pleasure that can be imagined, known as the local version of heaven and earth.
This is naturally an unreliable rumor, after Lao Dong ran away with money, many people came to pay respects, and then left traces of a visit here, and took away some potted glass bolts and the like as souvenirs. When the city letter agency reacted, the people sent to guard the property could only stare at the steel beams and pillars in a daze.
Therefore, the new glass greenhouse only inherited the foundation, beams and names of the original Crystal Palace, and the other large and small shapes to the hydropower wiring were redesigned and built, which cost a lot of money.
Of course, this money is just a car money for Atletico Madrid, and there is nothing wrong with changing it to a sky garden for everyone to see, but for Wei Wei, who still owes money to the bank, it is for his own life. If the waist bag is not bulging, he naturally doesn't care about making jokes, in case Atletico really hands it over to himself, he will be sitting properly, so he quickly admitted it.
"Okay, I'll admit I can't afford to keep this house, right?"
Lao Wei raised his hand to surrender, and Atletico Madrid couldn't continue the pursuit, but he smiled and said, "Actually, I bought this place because I took a fancy to this big greenhouse, who made me a world-famous druid?"
"Cut, you are also planting trees, you are far from the third brother who planted trees!" At this time, Lao Wei found a spray point and hurriedly expressed his disdain.
In Western fantasy stories, the druids are a group of people who believe in nature, are close to animals and plants, or other intelligent beings. Some people have transferred this concept to reality, and with a half-longing and half-ridiculous mentality, they call those masters in the field of agriculture druids or even great druids, such as Yuan Longping, a rice breeding expert, Jadav Payeng, the "son of the Indian forest" who became a forest by one person, and so on.
According to this concept, Atletico Madrid, who lives in a green castle, works in a leafy place and actively finances tree planting, is indeed a druid. The only problem is that this Mr. Druid seems to be more accessible to the goddess of wealth, preferring to plant trees with the power of money, rather than Jadav Payeng's sense of mission.
"You, how can you listen to the wind and rain?" Ma Jing asked depressedly: "The third brother who has been planting trees for 30 years is indeed a person, but where did you make him plant trees?"
"It seems like an arid sandbar, right?" Wei Wei clicked and gave up the hand and said after thinking about it.
"He planted trees in the Brahmaputra River, and if I did the same in the Yellow River and Yangtze River, I would definitely be invited to tea by the river management bureau. ”
"Huh?" x4
At this moment, not only Wei Wei, but also the surrounding people playing cards, onlookers, and eating melons inhaled in surprise.
Obviously, thanks to the operation of public accounts and well-known bloggers, this "modern fool" who planted hundreds of hectares of forest alone has a lot of popularity on the Chinese Internet.
Atletico waved his hand and said: "He did plant trees in the channel of the Brahmaputra River, but the sandbar island called Majuli is very large, and the surrounding river channel is also very wide, so there is no flood pressure, but he has to worry about being flooded, so it is still necessary to plant trees." Indians say the island is the world's largest freshwater delta with 1,250 square kilometres, but the Brahmaputra River flooded the previous summer, leaving only 352 square kilometres. ”
"By the way, the Bu River is the name of the Assam section of the Brahmaputra River, where there is the world's rain pole Qirapunqi, the Himalayas intercept the warm and humid air flow of the Indian Ocean there, resulting in very rich annual precipitation and frequent floods, the river flow is very large, and the upstream sediment is washed away, and the flow slows down to form a sandbar where the river widens, and then washes away when the next flood occurs, and finally brings to the mouth of the Ganges River to form the Ganges Delta. This is also the difference between the delta in the river and the estuarine delta, such as Chongming Island, an estuary island has always been upstream erosion and downstream growth, and eventually continues to move towards the sea, and the overall area will only increase and not decrease, after all, the location of the estuary is already the end point of sediment transport. ”
"Then you can go to Chongming Island to plant trees, I think it will be very welcome over there," Wang Binbin suddenly interjected.
"I'm planting," Ma Jing patted his head: "There are many places across the country that are suitable for planting trees and need to plant trees, and there are projects that our afforestation company is doing." You'll be able to see it in a few years. ”
"Cover the poke maniac!" said everyone in unison.
Bee Map has a long-term campaign "Look for Bees", which encourages netizens to find "bees" on the ground through satellite photos. There is no doubt that the vast majority of bees are made by the company itself, such as the plantations they invest in, which will form hexagonal honeycomb patterns and bee logos with tree species. Then such a self-selling and boasting event was quickly interpreted as Atletico Madrid showing off their achievements, hence the nickname "Stamping Maniac".
As soon as this "earth stamp" stalk came out, everyone laughed, and the atmosphere became cheerful again.
"Huh?" Atletico actually moved his ears.
"Huh?" the others reacted.
Everyone listened attentively, and found that there were many dense rustles in the air, and they surrounded themselves from all directions, as if they were in a silkworm house in spring.
Wei Wei jumped down from the rickety wicker chair, walked to the edge of the glass wall, stretched out his hand to wipe it, and looked out, only to find that it had snowed for some time.
Under the gray sky, countless snowflakes fluttered in the north wind and fell to the ground, covering the gray and yellow earth with dots of white veil, hitting the walls, leaving tiny white spots on the glass, and then slowly melting into small droplets of water and sliding down.
Needless to say, he naturally understood that the rustling sound of silkworms biting mulberry leaves he heard just now was actually made by these snowflakes hitting the glass, and the thick glass wall could block the whimpering sound outside, so there was nothing he could do about this kind of close-range impact.
"It's snowing!" Wei Wei shouted with some surprise.
Ten years ago, snow would not have been unusual to him, and it was not uncommon for him to wake up in the morning with a white expanse outside, a blanket of white expanse downstairs after class, and a snowy storm on the way to school. It's just that as everyone becomes more and more integrated into urban life, the sense of existence of snow is becoming weaker and weaker, except for the southern snow that froze down the telephone pole in 08, there is no impressive snow, but there are more and more heavy rains that are rare in all kinds of millennia, and take you to see the sea, so he has to sigh "This is the third snow I have seen this year, hehe, it is really warming in the world!"
"The snowfall has not decreased because it is already very little. As for global warming, by the time you can feel it, the Maldives will be gone. You don't see snow because you're indoors, and by the time you come out, the snow has melted, after all, the heat island effect in big cities is not blown. With so many people, computers, cars, boilers and buried lines in the city, it's hard to retain snow like a rural field. ”
