Chapter 011: Lively

The day after returning from the village to deliver the rabbits, it began to rain lightly. Although Lu Xiancheng doesn't like rain very much, it is very beneficial for Lu Xiancheng to rain at this time. Because such a light rain not only does not affect the digging of tree pits, but can greatly promote the progress of the project. The rain-soaked ground made the soil in the ground softer and easier to dig, so the whole project was completed a full day and a half earlier than scheduled, although the salary was two or three thousand more, but it was a good thing.

Now standing at the door wearing riding boots, looking at the sun outside the door, Lu Xiancheng feels that God is really not thin on himself. When the pit was dug, it rained, and after digging the pit, the rain stopped the sun, and by the time the first batch of ancient trees arrived, the water-soaked ground was almost dry, and the mules and horses were able to exert their strength again.

These days, it can be regarded as windy and rainy.

Originally, Lu Xiancheng was a little worried about not repairing the road from time to time because he saved money some time ago, but now he looks at this money, at least this year.

Lu Xiancheng was proud for a while, then walked into the stable, prepared the saddle for the furnace dust, and then left Erha at home to take care of the house, and he stepped on the furnace dust and ran in the direction of the big stable.

Today's stables were busier than usual, with sixteen Shire horses and twenty quartes harnessed on their backs, divided into four groups and tied to the bolts at the door of the stables.

All the ranch staff will be busy today except for one Sun Yong to look after the house, because everyone has to drag the first batch of ancient trees from the town back to the pasture on horseback.

As for why you use horses, firstly, because although the roads here are smooth, they are quite narrow, and there is no way for long trailers to get in. Second, because he wanted to save money for road repair, it would cost twenty or thirty miles of roads to repair, and Lu Xiancheng would rather buy a few more horses after saving this money. The third reason is that pulling things is not a matter for Sharma at all. What is called pulling a horse is not to drag things, what is called a heavy pulling horse is also understood as being able to drag heavy things!

Seeing Lu Xiancheng coming, Lu Yao motioned for everyone to stand up and prepare to start work.

Lu Xiancheng didn't get off the horse either, bowed his head and asked, "Are you ready?" Lu Yao nodded, so he didn't talk much nonsense and said directly to everyone: Then let's go. Then lead the way with a flick of the reins.

When everyone heard this, they untied the reins on the bolted horses, and each rode one, and led three or four horses in their hands. A group of people set off towards the town.

It was impossible to have a Sharma running wildly, and even if there was no Sharma, he didn't do anything, and the horse still had the strength to drag things after running for more than ten miles.

As soon as he arrived at the edge of the town, Lu Xiancheng found that today was crowded around the big drying field, just like the market.

The so-called drying field is also used for farmers to dry grain, the town's big drying field is quite large, as big as two or three football fields, because it is a little far away from the town, usually no one comes except for drying grain. But today, this guy is like looking at the Western scenery, and the water around him is impassable. Even the branches next to it were filled with people, men, women and children, and even those who dragged their families.

Not to mention the lively people, you can also see people selling sugar gourds, eggs, and even baked cakes in the crowd, as if the town market has been moved.

The Western scenery that these people are looking at is nothing else, just eight large trailers and two cranes. When Lu Xiancheng and these people came over with their horses, the atmosphere of the entire drying field reached a climax. Almost all of them exclamated and looked at sixteen Shire horses, one meter eight to one meter nine shoulder high.

It is not the first time that some people have seen a shire horse, but many more have not seen it, or even thought that there are some tall horses in the world, the whole hooves are thick like pillars, the hoof hair on the horse's hooves is like a horse wearing a hair nest, and the mane on the horse's neck is neatly cut. The mixed body is illuminated by the sun like brocade.

"This is the big Yanma, his grandmother is so beautiful!"

"There are really elephant-like horses!"

"Look at other people's horses"

"How much grass does this horse have to eat in one meal?"

…………

Lu Xiancheng and Lu Yao, the people of the ranch, are not the first time to see such a scene, and they can understand the mood of the Chinese people who like to watch the excitement, so they prepared to arrange the harness by themselves, and waited for the horses to wait for the tree to hang the harness on the frame as soon as it was hoisted to the frame.

This frame was bought by Lu Yao from the scrapped car yard. It is the chassis frame of the small truck, and it is slightly modified mainly to narrow the wheel base, and it has become a six-wheeled tree carrier with a batch of usable old tires, of course, there is no body or anything, and the frame is set up with a V-shaped frame that can support the tree.

There are four such carriages, each of which is divided into four Shire horses, and four are helped to share five Quart horses.

Originally, he could have gotten two more, but Lu Xiancheng was afraid of hurting his precious horses, so he only got four tree-transporting vehicles in line with the principle of seeking stability.

Under the gaze of everyone, Lu Yao and Zhang Yushan each commanded a crane to hang the ancient trees on the trailer to the frame, while Lu Xiancheng took out a cigar and smoked it, smoking while watching his men work.

"Mr. Lu!"

As soon as the fire was lit, he took a second breath before he came, and Lu Xiancheng heard someone calling him. When I turned my head, I saw: Good guys! The township secretary and the township chief walked towards him with a few smiling eyes.

The crowd of onlookers next to them met this group of people, and immediately made way for these people as if they were being pushed by something invisible.

"Secretary Chen, Township Chief Xia, won't you also come over to see the excitement," Lu Xiancheng put the cigar in his mouth, raised his hand and shook it with the two, and then said half-jokingly.

"It's like a fair, of course I want to come and see, I sat in the office early in the morning and heard them say that there were several trailers in the town, and I was still thinking about who was going to do something, making such a big move, as soon as I heard that the car was full of trees, I said to Lao Xia that it was Mr. Lu's thing. No one here except you can toss such a big wave," Secretary Chen, as the leader of the township, immediately opened his mouth and said.

Township Chief Xia also smiled after listening to Secretary Chen's words: "You don't come to us to sit in the town here, so we have to come over and do a good job of logistics for you, a big investor."

Xia Xiang Changxin said: Now I heard that Bao Erma raised a little love, but I haven't heard of anyone who is going to build a big tree at home, you young man can't be better and normal.

Lu Xiancheng was not at all frightened by these two people. smiled: "You two are also very busy, how dare I take up more of your precious time!" ”。

For the two smiling people, Lu Xiancheng felt quite awkward face to face, since he moved over to now, he has seen two or three sides, and he can't talk about any familiarity at all, and now everyone insists on pretending to be familiar, which makes people really unhappy.

It stands to reason that Lu Xiancheng is such a big and wealthy master who invests in Luolu Township, and the township chief and secretary have to go around all day, this is this Xia Township Chief and Secretary Chen were stunned and didn't go to 'disturb' Lu Xiancheng once.

It's not that the two don't want to go. If it were a different person, it was estimated that the two of them would be able to hold the futon directly, and they would like to live in someone's house. Now if it is replaced by Lu Xiancheng, it will not be, the identity is too embarrassing.

Lu Xiancheng is not only an investor, he is also the son of the textile elder factory director, and he is now the nephew of Director Lu. It's about the ass problem. are waiting for the other party to mention themselves first so that they can attach to the tail, just like this, a township secretary and a township chief will not mention this stubble first. That's all it takes now.

Now that Lu Xiancheng is coming to the town today, everyone is not so particular, and no one can say anything in broad daylight according to the official face, after all, Lu Xiancheng is also the general manager of the Sino-US joint venture.

"Today I'm the east, and everyone will eat a little together at noon," said Township Chief Xia.

Lu Xiancheng was a little embarrassed when he heard this: "I still have a lot of things to do here, otherwise let's wait for me to finish my business." I've got a bunch of friends coming over next month, and I'm going to invite two of you to come to my place for a drink! ”。

As soon as Secretary Chen heard this, he glanced at Township Chief Xia, the two of them have been in a team for two or three years, they are rivals, but they are also half friends, who doesn't know who is a few pounds and a few taels, and everyone can guess a rough idea with a look.

"This thing of time. It's like the groove in a woman's chest, there will always be a squeeze," Township Chief Xia also made a joke here.

As soon as Township Chief Xia's words fell, the few who were originally following behind him immediately laughed. Lu Xiancheng didn't think there was anything funny about this 'joke'.

To be honest, such a scene made Lu Xiancheng very uncomfortable, and he was not interested in eating with these two little followers in front of him and behind him.

It's not that Lu Xiancheng hates them, it's not okay, and Lu Xiancheng also knows that this is their way of survival. When they stand in front of the county secretary and county magistrate, they are no different from their followers, listening to people talking with laughter and holding the scene, they should applaud! The officialdom is almost the same layer by layer, and there are a few that are not like this if you want to mix it up.

"I still have a few truckloads of trees," Lu Xiancheng said.

Secretary Chen said at this time: "Lao Xia is usually an iron rooster, but today I finally got mixed up with Mr. Lu's face!" ”。

"You must appreciate the light, you must appreciate the light, just a few small dishes for the two of us" Township Chief Xia said with a smile: "If you don't come, Lao Chen's meal will be gone."

Lu Xiancheng pushed two more sentences, and finally felt that he couldn't push it off, so he had to agree, and made an appointment to drink at a restaurant in front of the township mansion at noon.

After chatting for about ten minutes, Chen Xia and the two township leaders left one after another.

"Uncle Xiancheng!"

Lu Xiancheng was just about to help, when he suddenly heard someone call him to turn his head and look in the crowd only to find that the little tiger who was reaching out to him, this kid was surrounded by a group of adults, but Lu Xiancheng didn't know anyone, and it wasn't You Jiawa at all.

"Shouldn't you be in class now?" Lu Xiancheng looked at the watch in his hand, and pointed out that Zhen had just pointed to half past nine, whether it was breakfast or lunch, it would not be like this.

Xiaohuzi said: "This physical education class, it's not interesting, I'll come over and take a look."

Before he could speak, he was knocked on the head by the person next to him: "The little guy doesn't make a draft when he lies, how can there be a physical education class at this time in the morning!" ”。

Lu Xiancheng listened and looked at the little tiger who was embarrassed to touch his brain, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, this little guy actually skipped class to come to see the excitement.

"You can do it!" Lu Xiancheng stretched out his hand and tapped him, then turned around and left.

Xiaohuzi watched Lu Xiancheng walk away, and then said to a few people around him: "I'm right, I know!" Actually, I know all the people who pull horses over there, and I've ridden all of them. But Uncle Xiancheng is a big boss, he also drank wine with my father, I also went to his house to eat, chocolate and everything was brought back from the country, high-grade! ……”。

Xiaohuzi gave a thumbs up while bragging, not to mention the smugness on his face.

Who knew that before he could get nervous for two minutes, a hand touched the little one's ear.

"Ouch! Who is so struggling with the old ......" Xiaohu slapped the hand of the visitor, raised his head obliquely, and saw the person who came clearly, and immediately swallowed back the next few words: "Teacher! ”。

"If you don't go to class, come here to see the excitement, you can really do it!"

The person who came was a woman in her forties, and she pulled Xiaohuzi's ears and pulled them out of the crowd.

"Ouch, ouch! Teacher, it hurts, my ears are about to fall off."

"It's off! Let you take my words as wind in your ears, it hurts? You'll find out what it hurts when you go back later! The sturdy teacher rolled up his sleeves and said.

The people next to him couldn't help but laugh when they saw the little tiger grinning with his teeth. (To be continued.) )
