Early in the morning, Liu Rui, who was lying on the bed, heard the sound of the pots colliding with each other from the new brewery, and could vaguely hear the firewood crackling in the boiler.

Since several workers came to work in the winery, Liu Rui no longer has to get up early to make wine, and his focus has already shifted to the grain station and the soon-to-be-established dove nursery.

Usually, Liu Rui was already standing in front of the boiler of the winery at this time, but now lying on the bed listening to his unusually familiar voice, Liu Rui had a feeling welling up in his heart.

Of course, Liu Jiahong still needs to get up early to give technical guidance to a few workers, and Liu Rui has to quietly inject space spring water into the wine jar after the fermentation of the sake lees, so as to ensure that the brewed rice wine maintains the same quality. However, even so, Liu Rui still freed himself from tedious and repetitive work.

Today's Liu Rui, as long as the secret koji recipe is not leaked, and the secret of the space spring water is not known, the quality of the rice wine produced by Liujia Distillery will not decline.

Lying on the bed for a while, putting his thoughts into the space, carefully observing the situation in the space, and experiencing the changes, this habit was only recently developed by Liu Rui. In the past, the scope of the space was only a few acres in size, and the situation inside was clear when the eyes swept it.

However, as time goes by, the scope of space is getting bigger and bigger, and it is already very difficult for Liu Rui to know the space well. For this reason, Liu Rui had to spend some time every morning observing the space so as not to miss something.

After inspecting his territory and finding that there was nothing abnormal, Liu Rui quickly retracted his thoughts and got up.

After getting dressed neatly, Liu Rui walked out of the door, and was quickly stimulated by the cold air rushing to his face, and sneezed.

Five or six degrees above zero, for people in the north, it is only the temperature of late autumn, but for the people of Liangcun, this is close to the lowest temperature of the year. Rubbing his nose, Liu Rui walked out of the yard and moved his hands and feet slightly.

Xiao Heijue, who was lying in the kennel under the eaves, pricked up his ears, but when he saw that it was Liu Rui, his eyes closed and he continued to sleep.

Liu Rui turned his head to look at Xiao Hei, who made a slight noise, and shook his head, there was really no way to be so sloppy as Xiao Hei. It's also a pet, but the surnames of Yellowthroat Marten and Xiaohua are completely different from Xiaohei, which is really a little confusing.

Since the yellow-throated marten and Xiaohua came to the Liu family's compound, they have been patrolling the compound and the surrounding area day and night, and have become the first choice for the care of the family here. In just a few months, the rats that were originally rampant in the Liu family's compound were almost extinct, and even the rats on the nearby mountains were gone.

Shaking his head and leaving the difference between the three pets behind, Liu Rui walked out of the yard and came to the yard.

At this time, the sky had gradually brightened, and the original royal blue sky seemed to be pulled away by someone, slowly revealing white skylight. In the western sky, the crescent-like waning moon shone a dim light, like a candle in the wind, as if it could be extinguished with a single breath.

The stars in the sky also blinked tiredly, shining all night, and these brilliant stars would disappear at any time when it was time to rest.

Liu Rui's gaze shifted from the sky downward, and the majestic Xiaoqing Mountain Range was like a giant beast crawling on the ground, exuding a suffocating and powerful aura. The howling north wind weaves through the mountains, and the dense jungle sways in the wind, making a rustling sound. The originally strong north wind gradually weakened after being blocked by the woods, and when they came to Liang Village, they were already at the end of the strong crossbow, and they could no longer make any waves. Even the dense fog that swirls in the villages and mountains is unmoved.

The preparation of Xiaoqingshan, facing Xiaojing Lake, makes the air humidity in Liangcun quite large, and the temperature difference between day and night makes the free water vapor in the air become a thick white fog that permeates the surroundings of Liangcun.

Fog is also common in winter, especially in industrially developed cities. During the Industrial Revolution, London was shrouded in a thick white fog for almost half of the winter, hence the name 'foggy capital'.

The reason why there is so much foggy weather in cities with developed heavy industry is only because there are a lot of mineral dust, dust and industrial particles in the air in these cities. Once these particles encounter enough water vapor, they can form a fog with very low visibility.

The industrial fog is like a thick cloud of cotton, which hangs over people's hearts and makes people breathless. They are like a physical existence, which makes people unable to break free, which will not only cause adverse effects on the human respiratory system, but also make people's spirits feel extremely stressed.

Unlike the industrial fog caused by soot particles in industrial cities, the dense fog in Liangcun has a trace of elegant atmosphere.

Looking down from Liu Rui's point of view, the dense fog shrouded in Liangcun is not static, they float in clusters in the east and west, like a flowing picture scroll. The fog in some places is so thick that even Liu Rui's eyes can't see through it, and I don't know what the scenery is underneath?

In addition, the fog in some places is like a light veil, hazy, and people feel a light breath coming to their faces. In particular, the faint flashing lights in the fog add a touch of psychedelic color to the whole environment.

In the mist, from time to time, a clear cry came through, which seemed to sound in Liu Rui's ears, which made people feel refreshed. There are tens of thousands of migratory birds living around Liang Village, and the daily life of these birds is quite regular, and they start to get up and move as soon as the morning dawns.

As the saying goes, 'early birds catch more insects'

As time passed, the whole village gradually woke up, and the silence of the village was broken by the crowing of chickens and dogs, and the sound of pots and pans. The village, which had been asleep all night, began to wake up, and the villagers began to welcome the new day with an unusual enthusiasm.

If it were in previous years, when the Spring Festival was approaching, the villagers would naturally not get up so early easily when they encountered such foggy weather. However, this year all this has changed dramatically. The villagers seem to have turned into wind-up machines and are working at full speed.

Many restaurants in the county now regard Liangcun as an important food supply base, and a large number of small trucks will stop at dawn near the lake, waiting to buy fresh vegetables.

Thinking that the silver of Baihuahua was waiting for him, the emotions that he originally wanted to be lazy were instantly dispelled without a trace, and the villagers were naturally full of motivation. It is precisely because the sandy land by the lake has become the best vegetable field that the villagers, who have an income every day, have gradually changed some bad habits.

Every morning, the sand by the lake is a lively scene, and the happy villagers pick up freshly picked vegetables and weigh them on the road to sell. There are also people who bring in their own poultry such as chickens and ducks and sell them to the restaurants they have established.

For months, even if it was windy and rainy, such a scene was staged in Liang Village every morning. Of course, when it comes to the changes, apart from the fact that more and more cars are coming to buy and more and more villagers are getting up early to work, the other situation seems to have not changed much.

But for the villagers of Liang Village, such a habit also means that if they work hard, each family may be able to earn a lot of money to improve their living conditions.

In the past, the highway in Liangcun had not yet been opened, and no merchants from other places came to buy all kinds of mountain goods, no matter how hard the villagers of Liangcun wanted to, there was no way to obtain the corresponding income. But now that the external conditions have improved, the villagers have seen a bright future after their efforts, so everyone is full of enthusiasm.

Standing on the courtyard and watching for a while, when Liu Rui heard a faint whistle in the distance, he also walked into the house, turned out baskets, baskets, etc., and came to the tomato field.

Today is the day of the small tomato harvest, Liu Rui, who got up early, did not alarm his mother and his younger brothers and sisters who were still sleeping, and came to the tomato field to pick tomatoes first. There is no way, who called the tomatoes in the space are also ripe, in order to hide people's eyes, Liu Rui can only go to the tomato field in advance, and then mix the small tomatoes harvested in the space.

Reaching out to pick an agate-like cherry tomato from the tomato branch, and without washing it, Liu Rui wiped off the hoarfrost on it with his sleeve and put it in his mouth. The frosted tomatoes are a little cold, and when you bite into them, it's like eating an ice cube with honey in it. The throat, which was originally a little dry because of getting up early, was instantly moisturized, and the sweet taste was transmitted from the taste buds on the tip of the tongue to the cerebral cortex, making Liu Rui stand on the spot.

Although it was not the first time to eat small tomatoes, Liu Rui was still amazed that the small tomatoes were so delicious, was it because of the space spring water or because the small tomatoes themselves were so delicious?

Although it was the first time to harvest, there were still countless ripe tomatoes on the tomato seedlings, and Liu Rui's eyes were almost dazzled. However, Liu Rui's eyesight and physical strength now make him quite agile, and it is a person like him who speaks like electricity.

Although the mountain breeze in the early morning was still cold, Liu Rui felt a fiery emotion burning in his heart.

With the production of the new winery on the right track, the renovation plan of the grain station by the 'Ruilan Company' is progressing smoothly, and the 'Dove Seedling Cultivation Base' that is about to be developed in cooperation with Ji Xiaojun has been put on the agenda, and the industrial development of the Liu family is indeed shocking. In contrast, these two acres of tomato land are much smaller in terms of scale, income, etc., but in Liu Rui's heart, the important surnames of these two acres of land are the highest.

Since returning home to farm, after twists and turns, these two acres of small tomatoes are Liu Rui's first attempt to start a business, and it is also a silent struggle against fate. At that time, Liu Rui hoped to get rich by planting tomatoes, so he had great expectations for small tomatoes.

However, as time went by, things changed drastically, and Liu Rui, the party, could not have expected it.

The various benefits of the space spring water were slowly reflected in the subsequent practice, and as a result, the expansion of the winery was mentioned by Liu Rui. If it is said that the expansion of the new winery is just a continuation of the dream of everyone in the hearts of the Liu family for decades or hundreds of years, the investment in 'Ruilan Company' is an out-and-out accident.

Perhaps because of the confidence after having Shennong space, or because of the overwhelming confidence in the future prospects of Xiaoqingshan National Nature Reserve, or purely because of the attraction of Guo Hailan, Liu Rui spent a huge amount of money to invest in 'Ruilan Company'. In this way, although the transformation of the grain station has not yet been completed, Liu Rui has changed from an ordinary farmer to a so-called farmer entrepreneur.

Then, when the reconstruction project of the grain station had just begun, because of the 'dove tree' involved in the landscape design of the grain station, Liu Rui had the idea of cooperating with Ji Xiaojun to develop the 'dove tree seedling cultivation base'.

In just a few months, Liu Rui has invested in one industry after another, and the scale is getting bigger and bigger, and the expected income in the future is also considerable. In contrast, two acres of tomato land seem to be a little small, and it has long been no longer the focus of the villagers of the two villages.

However, in Liu Rui's heart, these two acres of tomato land are the foundation of his career and the most typical representative significance.

The success of the winery is due to the combination of the space spring water and the Liu family's ancestral secret koji and wine-making recipes, which have their own special surnames and no common surnames. Even if the winery can become a big enterprise in the future, it will not be of high demonstration significance to other villagers in Liang Village.

The 'Dove Seedling Cultivation Base' is even more entirely due to the magical aura contained in the Shennong space and the space spring, and it is even more unable to give any inspiration to the villagers of Liang Village.

As for the 'Ruilan Company', which has the largest investment and is the most envied by the villagers, it is purely a manifestation of large capital investment, and it has no reference significance for the ordinary villagers of Liang Village.

The only thing that can have the greatest impact on the villagers' perceptions is the fruitful little tomato in front of Liu Rui's eyes.

At the beginning, Liu Rui's idea of planting tomatoes was very simple, but it was to improve the economic conditions of his family. However, when the family's financial situation improved, Liu Rui came up with more ideas.

Liu Rui hopes that by successfully planting and selling small tomatoes, he can open up a way for the villagers in Liangcun to get rich through planting and breeding.

Therefore, even with the help of the space spring, Liu Rui still poured a lot of effort into these two acres of tomato land, and now it is finally time to harvest.

After quickly picking a lot of ripe tomatoes among the tomato bushes, Liu Rui took advantage of the fact that there was no one around and put the small tomatoes that had been picked in the space into the basket he had prepared. There is no way, although there are only small tomatoes planted in the space, but because of the double nourishment of the space aura and the space spring water, these small tomatoes have a particularly good harvest. Liu Rui couldn't let these little tomatoes rot in the space, so he could only get some tricks to hide from the world.

Soon, together with the small tomatoes picked by the outside world, Liu Rui quickly picked ten baskets and filled them full. The ripe tomatoes are like agate at the same time, shining in the morning light.

"Wow! Brother, you are too powerful, you picked so many cherry tomatoes so early and came back! Liu Rui, who had just moved the little tomatoes to the yard and couldn't take a breath, soon heard his sister's exclamation!

Originally, the school had a holiday half a month ago, but Liu Zhi and Tongtong made up for two more weeks of classes because they were in the third year of junior high school, and they only came back yesterday afternoon.

"Don't bother!" Liu Rui stretched out his hand and rubbed the little girl's head, and said, "Hurry up and wash up and eat breakfast, and you will have to pack these cherry tomatoes in a while." ”

"I'm not a kid anymore, don't rub your head!" The little girl was very dissatisfied and pushed Liu Rui's big hand away, grimaced at him, and ran over the well to wash.

Seeing his sister's energetic figure, Liu Rui's tiredness just now flew away without a trace. This is his family, the object of his hard work, as long as everything is okay with his family, no matter how hard and tired it is, it is worth it.

After the family washed up and had breakfast, they sat down in the courtyard and began to pack the tomatoes in a special gift box. These gift boxes were brought in advance by Liu Rui from the fruit merchant, and they were specially used to hold these harvested tomatoes.

Nowadays, due to the very small number of small tomatoes, the high nutritional value of small tomatoes, excellent taste and good appearance are the reasons why small tomatoes are worth a lot. It is difficult to see small tomatoes in the general fruit market, and they are often used as gifts in the high-end consumer market.

This time, after the tomatoes were ripe, Liu Rui collected some samples and went to the county seat to give them to Zhou Guodong, asking him to help find some merchants to buy the tomatoes. After seeing Liu Rui's sample, Zhou Guodong didn't say a word, and began to contact merchants from other places for Liu Rui. In the end, it was Huang Xingye, the fat boss who bought longan with Liu Rui, who took over the order.

After wrapping Liu Rui's longan round, Huang Xingye tasted the sweetness, after all, the fruits in Liu Rui's orchard were excellent, and after selling them, Huang Xingye also made a lot of money.

This time, I heard that the small tomatoes planted by Liu Rui were ripe, but Huang Xingye, who had only seen the samples and had not even seen the tomato field, immediately made the decision to buy them. As for the price, he will give it after he comes to Liu's house today to see it, but Huang Xingye said that once the fruit is good, it will be raised by one or two on the basis of the average market price.

So, Huang Xingye took the carton used to pack the tomatoes to Liu Rui and packed them first, and only after dawn did he drive the car to pull the goods. For Huang Xingye, although such a move does not seem to be made by a businessman, in order to win over a planting expert like Liu Rui, Huang Xingye also worked hard.

The rising sun pierced the white mist in the air, and the red sunlight poured into the courtyard of the Liu family, warming everyone. The agate-like cherry tomatoes jumped into the cardboard box, which was intoxicating!

For the members of the Liu family, this year's winter has been unusually warm, but it is very different from the panic at the beginning of the year.

Perhaps, life is often more exciting than fiction!
