Next chapter

Listening to Lao Wang's words, Hani and Charlie's eyes widened at the same time: "Man, are you mistaken?" Planting flowers and trees here? Seriously, you've got a weird idea. ”

Lao Wang was confident: "Why not? Isn't it normal to plant something on both sides of the road? The bare road is so ugly that if we plant beautiful flowers and plants, we might be able to turn this road into a tourist spot. ”

New Zealand is different from China in this regard, there are few trees on both sides of the road, let alone flowers and plants. Of course, there are almost no trees on either side of China's highways, but New Zealand is bare on both sides of the road, regardless of the main road, unless there are some trees growing on its own.

Wang Bo felt strange at first, but later looked it up on the Internet and realized that the root system of trees also has a destructive effect on the foundation of the road, so there are not many trees planted on both sides of the highway in New Zealand.

In addition, New Zealand pays attention to the beauty of nature, and generally does not artificially plant flowers and trees for the pursuit of beauty.

Of course, the most important thing is that it costs money to plant flowers and grass on both sides of the road, and the reluctance of the New Zealand government and local governments to pay this money will be perceived as a squander of taxpayers' hard-earned money.

Wang Bo didn't care, he just got 1.5 million earthquake supplements, and there was no place to use this money, so he used it to buy flowers and trees.

Hearing his words, Hani still shook his head and said, "What you say makes sense, but you must know that the storage of this spring may threaten the life of the highway, so let's block him." ”

Wang Bo shrugged and said, "Does the longevity of the highway have anything to do with me?" No, but if you make the road a scenic area, it has a lot to do with me. ”

He said this a little unruly, Hani had such a feeling, and said dissatisfiedly: "Mayor Town, it's not right for you to do this, this is harming others and benefiting yourself." ”

Lao Wang sneered and said, "Come, Charlie, you explain to our upright inspector why I want to do things that harm others and benefit myself, and tell him how the government treats me." ”

Charlie laughed dryly and told Haney of the government's intentions.

The inspector was an upright man, he was not pedantic, and after listening to the explanation, he was furious and yelled: "These sons of bitches are politicians! In that case, let's just live our lives, Mayor Mare, don't worry about the roads! ”

In fact, Wang Bo has been very restrained, he did not do things very excessively, the heart of the spring is still hundreds of meters away from the highway, the stream meanders down, and there is a distance across the road, which has little impact on the foundation, just pay attention to maintenance.

At present, Highway 8 is the foundation of the town, and he still has this overall view.

It is easy for someone to do things under him, Wang Bo gave an order, and the Mexican pretty boy went to choose flowers and trees, and he could make a pot of hot tea and wait slowly.

Sitting in the hall teasing the military commander, the queen and the strong man, Lao Wang had a pot of tea and a chair, and in this way, time passed slowly, and the day passed comfortably.

Of course, he didn't do nothing, at least he had to plan the order of the flowers and plants on the side of the road.

Bowen went to the Maori to recruit workers, planting flowers and trees is a lot of work, and there are no people in New Zealand, where there are dedicated gardeners, but their asking prices are relatively high. Besides, you have to spend money anyway, so why not let others make money?

Maori are still very good for day jobs, but regular workers are not suitable, they are too lazy and like entertainment, as long as they get a salary, they have to enjoy life, and it is easy to delay work.

New Zealand's short-term work is mainly supported by two kinds of people, one is tourists, there is a visa called a working visa, which is generally for one year, and is very popular with young tourists, who travel while working to earn money.

The other is the Maori, who work part-time to earn some money, then go for entertainment, and then work part-time jobs when the money is spent, and so on.

What Wang Bo gave was planting trees, 100 meters and 10 New Zealand dollars, generally planting four trees, and diligent workers could earn more than 1,000 yuan a day. As for flowers and plants and the like, he doesn't need Maori, he can solve it himself.

The next day, a garden company came to the town to deliver seeds and trees, and several large trailers dragged full of saplings, with a total value of 250,000 New Zealand dollars.

According to his design, the trees planted on both sides of the highway are mainly magnolias, red maples, rhododendrons, and plums, among which magnolia blooms in spring, rhododendron trees bloom in summer, red maple is beautiful in autumn, and plum blossoms in winter.

In this way, Route 8 can be in full bloom in all four seasons, and there is a beautiful scenery for visitors to watch all year round.

But when the people from the gardening company arrived, they learned of his idea, and he planted some jacaranda and said, "Sir, this flower is beautiful, and when the blue flowers flutter in the wind, the beautiful scene is enough for the angels to stop." ”

Wang Bo had never heard of this flower, so he looked it up on the Internet.

Indeed, the jacaranda blooms beautifully, its flowers are blue, and many universities in Australia are lined with this tree on the campus roads, and even people from other places come to watch it when it blooms.

Moreover, this tree is not only ornamental, but also economical, its wood is yellowish-white to gray, soft and light, straight and easy to process, and can be used as furniture.

Of course, this kind of sapling is not cheap, one costs 400 New Zealand dollars, Wang Bo plans to plant five kilometers of jacarandas, then according to 100 meters to plant two trees, this is 40,000 yuan.

If it's a small sapling, it's not so expensive, and a tree is more than a dozen or dozens of dollars.

The saplings Wang Bo bought were all half-sized trees, such as jacaranda, the smallest sapling of this kind of tree was six centimeters, while the one he bought was already one and a half meters high, which was naturally more expensive.

However, the advantages of expensive are that the survival rate can be guaranteed, and the second is that the growth rate is fast enough, this kind of tree can grow up to fifteen meters tall, if it starts growing from a small sapling, it is too slow.

Other trees are also at this height, and they can bloom in a year or two after planting, and you can see results in the shortest possible time.

As for the seeds of flowers and plants, this one he bought is more complicated, the Sunset Town section of Highway 8 is relatively long, Wang Bo took out 20 kilometers to plant trees, and he wants to use the rest of the road to plant flowers.

As for the type of flower? He chose a total of 365 species, yes, 365 species: his idea was to build a way to give birth to flowers, one flower per kilometer, and plant more than 30 kilometers!

The rest of the town didn't know what he had planned, and when they saw the garden company move boxes of flower seeds from the car, Haney, Charlie, Cowboy and others were surprised: "How many flowers did you buy?" ”

Wang Bo shrugged and said, "365 species, covering the types of birth flowers of the whole year, how about it?" ”

"Shet, you must be crazy!" (To be continued.) )
