With the blooming of pear blossoms, the peach grove next door is also in full bloom for 6 consecutive years, and the entire Xiaojia Farm has entered the season of flowers, which is pleasing to the eye.
Xiao Feng took pictures of the beautiful scenery in the forest and uploaded it to the Internet, which aroused the praise of netizens in unison, and they left messages saying that they wanted to come to enjoy the flowers.
Nowadays, Xiao Feng's Id: 'Best Landlord' has a lot of fame on the Tianya Forum and the official website of Jinghu Company, because he can always put the scenery changes and new things in Ginkgo Village and Jinghu Scenic Area on the Internet in the most timely manner.
Many white-collar workers in Yaozhou, Nanzhao and Chuncheng have been deeply infatuated with this quiet mountain village after coming to Ginkgo Village, and on weekends and holidays, they drive here to relax for two days.
The official opening of the Jinghu Scenic Area and the new tourism projects have also made tourists have more good feelings about Ginkgo Village, and everyone is willing to enjoy all kinds of beautiful scenery and leisure time here that cannot be felt in the city.
Today, the average number of tourists received by Jinghu Scenic Area has exceeded 3oo per day, which means that the number of tourists received by Ginkgo Village every month has approached 10,000, and they will bring huge income to the villagers and Jinghu Company.
The tourist attraction is a hen that lays golden eggs!
…………
"Brother Jiu, there have been tourists who want to enter the orchard for a few days, and I can't make up my mind!" At breakfast, Xiao Qiang reflected a situation he had encountered in the past few days to Xiao Feng.
Although Xiao Qiang is one of the three executive presidents of Xiao Family Farm, he, like Xiao Dazhi and Xiao Tao, does not dare to act arbitrarily on many important issues. Xiao Feng needs to be consulted for advice.
Letting tourists enter the orchard to play is not a big thing, but it is not a small thing.
The Xiao family farm is a private property. It does not belong to the category of Jinghu Scenic Area, and the farm can naturally refuse the request of tourists, but the number of tourists wandering around the farm continues to increase these days, which makes Xiao Qiang feel a certain pressure.
Xiao Tao went out to purchase eggs and incubators, Xiao Dazhi went to Yaozhou and Chuncheng to inspect the seedlings of precious aquatic products, and Xiao Qiang, who stayed behind, became the top person in charge of the farm.
Xiao Qiang worries that the arrival of tourists will increase the pressure on the environment within the farm, and may also have an impact on the poultry raised in the orchard.
"It's fine. You just let the tourists in, but you have to put up all kinds of signs at the door to remind the tourists not to destroy the vegetation and leave garbage in the orchard!" Xiao Feng thought about it, felt that this was not too big a deal, and nodded in agreement.
Nourished by the spatial spiritual spring, Xiao Feng is not worried that the arrival of tourists will have too much impact on the yield of the orchard and the growth of poultry.
As part of Ginkgo Village, it is also necessary for Xiaojia Farm to take advantage of its own advantages. Increase the attraction of the Mirror Lake Scenic Area to tourists and achieve a virtuous cycle.
After all, the entire Xiao family farm has planted 2o thousand fruit trees, and once the area of more than 10,000 acres blooms and bears fruit, the scene is quite spectacular. Today, only hundreds of acres of pear groves and more than 1,000 acres of peach groves are in full bloom. It has already formed a beautiful scenery.
Although there are now a lot of wildflowers blooming on the slopes around Jing Lake, the thousands of acres of bright peach forests are obviously more attractive to tourists.
"Then I'll start making arrangements when I turn around!" Xiao Qiang nodded, stopped talking, and buried himself in dealing with today's braised beef rice noodles.
'Ginkgo Biloba Specialty' resumes normal operation. The eldest sister and the second sister all moved back to the old house, and every day they changed their tricks to prepare three meals for Xiao Feng. These guys live a leisurely life of eating and opening their mouths.
Now, in addition to more than a dozen people from the Xiao family, Xu Mengyao's mother and daughter have been added, and the entire old mansion is very lively as soon as it is time to eat.
Xiao Feng raised his eyes and saw that Xu Mengyao was sitting at the table, eating steaming rice noodles slowly, her movements were elegant, and her bright red lips made Xiao Feng's eyes a little hot.
However, the little girl Ninicole next to her doesn't look like a lady, she doesn't know how to use chopsticks yet, she is holding a spoon and playing with rice noodles and beef in her mouth, and her small mouth is full.
Looking at her daughter's eating appearance regardless of her image, Xu Mengyao was a little helpless, so she could only shake her head secretly.
In the past, Xu Mengyao still had a lot of training on her daughter's eating etiquette, but since she suffered from aphasia, the soft-hearted Xu Mengyao no longer imposed too many strict and harsh requirements on her daughter and relaxed her control over her daughter.
Especially after coming to Ginkgo Village, her daughter became lively, but she was not ladylike at all, which gave Xu Mengyao a headache.
However, deep in Xu Mengyao's heart, she was also deeply attracted by the Xiao family's food!
Take today's braised beef rice noodles as an example, this is one of the most delicious breakfasts Xu Mengyao has had over the years.
The rice noodles used by the Xiao family are sour pulp rice noodles made by the villagers by hand, which is very different from the common machine-made dry pulp rice noodles on the market, and the aroma of rice is stronger and smooth.
In addition to the exquisite types of rice noodles, the soup stock used by the Xiao family is even more extravagant, using beef bones, pig bones, and local chicken to boil for a day and night, the soup is clear in color and has a striking aroma! Xu Mengyao even drank the taste of high-grade abalone in this soup, which can only be said that the Xiao family is exquisite in eating.
However, it is understandable when it comes to the huge assets of the Xiao family.
As for the highlight of this breakfast - braised beef, the selection of northwest Yunnan mountain people from the pure natural free-range yellow beef, half of the tendon and half meat through the Xiao family's secret spices marinated, the meat pieces are crispy, melt in the mouth, and the aroma of the beef itself and the aroma of the sauce are perfectly blended together, which is impressive.
Combine several ingredients, and then add fragrant chili oil, eat sweaty, and feel comfortable all over!
These days, Xu Mengyao has fallen in love with the Xiao family's braised beef rice noodles!
What Xu Mengyao didn't know was that in addition to the exquisite ingredients used in the Xiao family's breakfast, the space spirit spring was added in the process of making zuò, so that while maintaining the freshness and deliciousness of the ingredients, it also added more remote charm.
The old lady and the old lady sat on it, watching a room full of juniors eating breakfast with relish, not to mention how happy they were.
Over the years, as Xiao Jinxu and others got married and gradually moved out of the old house, the originally lively old house became deserted, which made the two old people feel lost.
However, Xiao Feng returned to Ginkgo Village to invest heavily, and the old house also restored the scene of the past crowds, and the old people naturally couldn't help but be happy to see so many people eating together every day.
…………
After breakfast, Tongtong shouted to ride a horse to the farm to play, but Xiao Feng couldn't resist her, so she could only nod and agree.
With Tongtong taking the lead, Xiao Haoyu and Nini looked at Xiao Feng with blank eyes, and their cute eyes made Xiao Feng unable to resist at all!
"Okay, let's go!" Xiao Feng waved his hand and said, "Tongtong, you go and hold the twelfth uncle, otherwise the ninth uncle alone can't take care of the three of you!"
Although a large number of bluestone roads have been built inside and outside Ginkgo Village, the best means of transportation to inspect farms and pastures is still a tradition that has existed for thousands of years - horses!
For this reason, Xiaojia Farm and Jinghu Ranch are equipped with a lot of horses, which are quite convenient for employees to use for their daily work.
Different from the tall Arabian thoroughbreds, the horses widely used by farmers and herdsmen in southern Yunnan are the local horse breeds of southern Yunnan - Yunnan horses!
Also known as 'bantam horses', Yunnan horses have long been known for their endurance and are the most important means of transport on the Ancient Tea Horse Road, and they are very suitable for the mountain roads of southern Yunnan and the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.
In the past thousand years, the Yunnan horse traveled back and forth on the steep ancient tea horse road, which played a crucial role in the material exchange and cultural integration of the border areas and even the Indochina Peninsula.
Nowadays, although the ancient tea horse road has gradually disappeared, in the mountainous areas of northwest Yunnan, the Yunnan horse is still the most important means of transportation and animal power for the villagers.
"Sister Xu, rest today, do you want to go to Taolin with us?" After handing over Haoyu and Tongtong to Xiao Jun and Xiao Qiang respectively, Xiao Feng hugged Nini and said to Xu Mengyao.
The preparation for the establishment of Jinghu Dairy has entered the stage of full swing, but Xiao Feng does not advocate the transition of overtime for employees, and at least one rest day every week. In the future, after the dairy company is put into production, each employee will not be less than 6 days off a month, which is also one of the important measures that Jinghu Dairy relies on to attract talents.
"Okay!" Xu Mengyao agreed without a trace of hesitation.
When she was in New Zealand, Xu Mengyao learned riding skills with cowboys in the ranch, and her level was not low, but there were very few opportunities to ride horses after returning to China.
Just now I heard Xiao Feng and them discussing riding a horse to the peach forest, Xu Mengyao was already itchy, if Xiao Feng didn't speak, Xu Mengyao couldn't help but take the initiative to participate.
Xiao Feng put on jeans, a long-sleeved shirt and long leather boots, and wore a wide-brimmed cowhide hat unique to northwest Yunnan, which was a bit of a herdsman, but his fair face was immediately exposed.
It is also strange to say that during the time Xiao Feng returned to Ginkgo Village, he was also outdoors, but his complexion did not become dark like Xiao Qiang and others, and his cheeks did not have the 'plateau red' full of plateau characteristics.
Whenever someone raised this question, Xiao Feng could only change the topic with haha.
Xiao Feng estimated that it may be the spiritual energy nourishment of the Zizhu space, and his skin has become more and more white as jade, but it makes his image as handsome as ever.
After packing up and stopping, Xiao Feng first drove the electric car and led everyone to the stable of Jinghu Ranch, where all the horses used in the ranch and farm were raised.
The Dian horses were docile, and it didn't take long for Xiao Feng and his party to get on the horse's back and drive them in the direction of the farm.
Along the mountain road, unknown wildflowers and various rhododendrons are blooming, and a faint fragrance of flowers is permeating the air, and from time to time you can see one or two bees flying among the flowers, bringing more life to spring.
Originally, Xiao Feng was worried that Xu Mengyao would not be able to ride a horse, but looking at her straight waist on the back of the horse and her rhythmic body moving with the horse, Xiao Feng knew that her riding skills were not low.
Looking from behind, Xu Mengyao's slender waist suddenly swelled up at the position of the crotch, and the round part was full of fatal temptation!
