382.Chapter 382: The Earth Farmer
"May I ask you a question?" "What more do you need for a man like you," said the Marquise, who now reigns over the world and can get whatever he wants? ”
Downing smiled: "This is really a very deep philosophical question, I can only answer you in a very abstract way." ”
The Marquise was waiting for his answer.
Downing fell into deep thought, "What do I really need?" He closed his eyes, and a scene came into his mind, and he finally said, "Of all the professions, guess what I like to do the most?" ”
Marquise: "Scientist? ”
Downing: "No, it's a farmer. When you ask me this question, I have never been able to see farmers in the Wye Valley of Wales plowing their farms.
My main business is to grow apple trees and make cider, but I do more than that, in order to make my apple trees better pollinated when they bloom, I also keep bees, many, many, hundreds of thousands, millions, and it takes a big truck to fit their hives.
There was a lot of grass growing under the apple trees, and I didn't want them to go to waste, so I decided to keep a herd of Welsh sheep.
See, I have a lot to do, but I am a farmer, and after I have done what I need to do, I still have a lot of free time, so that I have a lot of free time every day, and in order to pass the time, I often go fishing in the Huai River.
I don't care if I catch a fat salmon, I just want to get up at dawn and go to the river. After a night of cooling, the temperature of the air was much lower than that of the river, which was larger than the heat, so the water seemed to be evaporated, and the morning mist rose over the entire wide surface of the river.
It's so beautiful, it's like a fairyland. I took out my long fishing rod and swiped the curves in the morning sky, like the strings of a musician, and flicked it gently in the magnificent nature, and the music was heard far away. My farm folks, all love the morning Huaihe, and the sound of my piano seems to have received a warm response from them.
Know why I love being a farmer? Because life and work are combined, life and sightseeing are combined again. When spring comes, my apple trees are in full bloom, and my little bees, working diligently for me, get up at four o'clock, and have been dancing and working among the flowers, and chirping and chirping until nightfall, and then reluctantly returning to the hive at nine o'clock or ten o'clock.
The apple blossom is so beautiful, especially when it stretches as far as the eye can see, especially when you know that each of its flowers represents harvest and fulfillment. No artist can use pen and ink to express the beauty of this sea of flowers, only the villagers are as complacent as me.
Spring flowers, summer fish, autumn fruits. When it was harvest time, I drove my tractor for apple harvesting, and it had a big tong that clamped the trunk of the apple tree, and then shook it vigorously, and the ripe apples fell like rain on the grass.
Wow, it's so relaxing, so cozy, it's perfect. I might plant 40 different varieties of apple trees that can be blended into countless varieties of cider, each revealing a secret of nature. As a winemaker, I have access to a myriad of cider flavors, and at every stage of the wine's fermentation, I can unscrew the tap and take a sip.
Farmers are happy, work is life, we are wanderers among the fruit trees, see a particularly beautiful, red little apple, pick it and taste it. We are beehive explorers, uncovering the exquisite honeycombs, scraping a spoonful when we are tempted, and enjoying the zero-distance honey without any treatment, packaging and transportation.
Shearing sheep in the summer is also a blessing, and it will be comforting to watch them cool and light. It is also a blessing to give birth to a sheep, watching the lambs be born in your hands, and then the mother sheep lovingly licks her baby.
Wow, I'm really, but you know what I mean? Of course, I am different from ordinary farmers, the whole earth, the big earth in the eyes of some people, the small earth in my eyes, is all the farm of me, a guy with a peasant mentality, and I willfully harvest a little bit of beauty on the small earth. ”
The Marquise laughed and groaned beside the peasant emperor who was a big man, and it took him a long time to listen to his babblings, and finally had a chance to speak: "Understood...... Phil is a red apple you came across while walking through the orchard, and you picked her and ate it on the spur of the moment, didn't you? ”
Tang Ning was not embarrassed, but laughed and said, "This analogy...... It's kind of interesting. In fact, politics is trade, Canada is a big orchard, generally speaking, it is impossible for you to exchange any beautiful little apples for an orchard, but ...... Why did Madame come to Beijing alone? This makes you look like a small apple hanging alone from a branch. ”
Marquise: "Generally speaking...... So, what about in particular? ”
The atmosphere of dialogue has become increasingly ambiguous, but both sides are enjoying the tacit negotiations.
Tang Ning's gaze finally withdrew from the marquise's youthful and delicate rose-like face, sighed lightly, and said, "The marquise is the most tempting apple in the most beautiful time of her life. Do you know why apples are sour? Because this sour smell is best suited for yeast growth, some apples even begin to be contaminated with Saccharomyces cerevisiae that drifts in the wind, and then turn into cider, the aroma of which attracts a monkey two kilometers away.
Attracting monkeys allows them to spread their seeds farther, so sour wild apples have a survival advantage. Madame is not an ordinary apple, but cider from the tree, and how do I feel like a monkey? Alas, self-control is getting worse and worse. ”
Neither side dared to look at the other, and looked at the trees in the distance, and after a while, the marquise said softly, "All right, monkey." ”
The monkey's body was shocked, and he looked sideways at the side face of Mrs. Fruit Wine, wow, it really looked like a glass of golden cider on the tree, it was very beautiful.
Accustomed to giving orders, the Emperor said, "Little Apple, come to me." ”
The Marquise said coquettishly: "Apples are plants, monkeys are animals, and you will come if you want to come." ”
Well, the leading figure of the animal kingdom took a step and turned to her, admiring her shy and embarrassed appearance, but Mrs. Apple turned to the other side, full of mischievous fun.
Animal: "Don't move, aren't you a plant?" ”
Mrs. Apple: "I'm sorry, let's stop making jokes like this, okay?" ”
"Jokes?" Emperor Qian was taken aback, as if he was afraid that the apple in his hand would be snatched away by the flying birds, so he had to make it clear: "No, it's not a joke." Well, let's take our time and make a deal that is both good for you and me. You, kiss me, and I'll let Canada go. ”
It's really a kiss, which may be the biggest compliment to a big beauty. It seems to be a good deal, but it is very awkward, which does not meet the values of the fourth princess.
After a fierce battle between heaven and man, she came up with a compromise trick, saying, "Words count? ”
Downing: "Absolutely. ”
The Marquise came to him briskly, and a gust of incense struck him, and she was not drunk, and then, she lifted her toes, pursed her fragrant red lips, and kissed him gently on the right cheek, looking at how holy and elegant it was, and the Emperor almost thought that this was the end of his purpose.
Anyway, he was already half-drunk, and the kiss was really sweet and warm.
Downing: "You know how big Canada is, right?" ”
Marquise: "The largest in the world." "Because Russia had been separated from the Soviet Union, British North America became the largest country in the world.
Tang Ning: "It's still it, so, this big orchard I was bound to get, just now my happiness index is already very, very high, but, to win the world's largest country, it's not enough, can you kiss again, this time, it's a kiss." ”
The pretty face of the marquise at this time has already raced the ripe apple, and her will is about to collapse, in order to complete the political mission of the earth-shattering ghosts and gods, let's fight. She once again summoned up all her strength and courage to face the Emperor and offer a holy kiss...... Wait a minute.
Just before her lips were about to touch the lips of the Emperor Qian, she suddenly wanted to make another request, saying, "Then you have to agree to my request, which is a request." ”
Downing: "What? ”
Marquise: "Don't really let Egypt have a big drought. ”
What a holy request, Tang Ning was moved, and in order to make the happiness index explode today, he decided not to hesitate to let the prophet's credibility go bankrupt, and agreed.
What else is there to say? The Marquise gave a tender and endless kiss of the heart, and the soft lips were as fragrant as spring orchids, and the peasants of the earth closed their eyes and enjoyed the most beautiful and mellow pleasures.
To be clear, this fragrant kiss is just lips touching. The beautiful Emperor smiled wickedly and said, "Hehe, it's so sweet, it has taken away my soul." That's enough for me to promise not to invade Canada within a year. ”
"What!" The Marquise felt that she had been deceived by money, and her face was full of anger.
The cunning emperor hurriedly said: "That's the case, just take the time just now, every kiss is considered a year of peace, think about it, Canada is the largest country in the world, such a standard is in line with international practice!" ”
The Marquise was furious: "No, it's too cunning, who knows how to wait...... Will you make another unreasonable demand? ”
The Emperor had no choice but to make a personality guarantee: "This is the last time, really." ”
The last time, the orchid bloomed again, revealing her beauty, and in order to ensure a long enough peace, the Lady Orchid exhausted the last of her spirits, and finally had to sacrifice the most precious stamens for the frenzied bee-like emperor to taste to his heart's content.
At this moment, she was more than just a small apple, more than a glass of cider, but a large plate of honey that had just been extracted from the beehive, and still radiating a golden glow in the bright sun.
In the end, the Marquise herself also had a natural biochemical reaction in her body, and she fell in love with this transaction, and the green leaves of the orchid that were originally used as a foil turned into vines, and her hands wrapped around his neck to achieve the best "trading state".
Fortunately, this is an open-air stone pavilion, not an intimate space, otherwise something catastrophic for the Marquise would have happened
