Chapter 120: A Walk in the Back Mountain
"When the time comes, let's take a look at Zhang Caolin, can you buy some small animals in bulk?"
A thought flashed through his mind, and Meng Zhou's footsteps kept moving forward.
Speaking of which, this is the first time he has seriously checked the situation in the back mountain.
Before, because it was all bare, there wasn't much except for stones and dirt, and he didn't bother to take a closer look at the back mountain, so he basically just took a rough look.
Now it's different, everywhere is full of trees, weeds, flowers, and moss.
Except for the small animals I didn't see much, it was basically not much different from an ordinary mountain.
Well, there's still a difference.
There are many trees that grow here, and in addition to some of them that are very ordinary, there are many valuable trees, and there are even various fruit forests here.
The stone steps paved with bluestone slabs at the foot extend little by little along the mountain, covering the entire back mountain.
Don't look at it as a small hill that is not high, but if you really want to count it, it is not a small area.
At least the Penglai courtyard and the farm outside are not as vast as the entire back mountain.
Therefore, there are many other things that are not only woods on this side of the mountain.
In addition to the hot spring pool mentioned earlier, Meng Zhou also put the gym and martial arts hall here.
Even because it is in line with tradition, he also deliberately built a small temple here in the back mountain, but there is no statue of a god living in it yet.
"Tsk, although this stream water is not as delicious as the mysterious spring water, it is also quite sweet!"
Taking a sip of water from the stream in front of him, Meng Zhou tasted it.
It was true that there was no water here before, but in the process of transplanting trees, Lin Gaozhuo and his team discovered a lot of springs.
It's not a hot spring or anything like that, but it also has several more streams.
In this way, the project on the back mountain side has been lightened a lot.
Otherwise, according to the original design, after the trees were transplanted, water would be pumped from the rivers at the foot of the mountain.
And then through the pipeline or something, it is transported to the back mountain.
Although this work is simple, the amount of work is not small.
But now, there is a water source on the back mountain, so there is no need to build a water source here.
As long as the gullies are dug along the route as needed, and the water is channeled into these ravines, the mountain stream is complete.
From the top of the hill, after several meanders, several rivers join the farm, and others go straight over the mountains and into the sea.
After passing through the back hills, you can see the coastline after walking a short distance.
Originally, it was a desert sandy area, but after the sea appeared, it became a beautiful beach.
I have to say that Meng Zhou's third uncle has a really good eye for choosing places.
Even when there was nothing here before, you can choose such a good place to settle down.
Although Meng Zhou inherited the inheritance of his third uncle.
But speaking of which, he really doesn't know much about the deeds and personality of this third uncle.
Even before the lawyer was found, Meng Zhou had no idea that he still had such a famous elder.
I don't know what happened before, so that his family never mentioned this elder.
"Click."
I walked to the orchard, picked an apple, wiped it casually, and then took a gentle bite.
"Well, it's sweet and crunchy!"
Meng Zhou's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but admire.
There is no small stream running through the orchard, and the water in it is basically drawn from the mysterious spring in the backyard.
So the fruit trees here not only grow well, but also bear fruit very quickly, and the smell is as amazing as ever.
As far as the eye can see, many of the fruit trees here have now borne fruit, and many of them are ripe.
Looking at it like this, it should not be long before a wave of harvest will be possible.
In addition to keeping some for your own consumption, these can be sold for a lot of money.
It just so happened that according to Tang Zhenzhen's report to himself yesterday, the store on the other side of the Yuhe shopping mall is almost ready to be renovated, and it is estimated that it will be open for business soon.
When the time comes, you can put these fruits and other things on the table.
The thoughts in his mind kept flickering, but the steps under Meng Zhou's feet never stopped.
Soon I walked along the bluestone road to the hot spring at the top of the mountain.
A wooden, antique open-air hot spring bath was presented in front of Meng Zhou's eyes.
"It's a pity that it's summer, and it's too hot to soak in the hot springs, otherwise, you can use it here now, I don't know how good it is!"
muttered to himself softly, and Meng Zhou suddenly felt a little regretful.
Then he looked around.
Originally, it was designed to be a peach forest, but then a hot spring was dug up, so the peach trees were planted around the hot spring.
Fortunately, there is a mysterious spring watering, otherwise Meng Zhou suspects that the peach trees around here may not be so dense.
And now it is even more amazing, the trees are full of pink peach blossoms, and not even a single peach has been produced.
In contrast to the other fruit trees in the orchard, there is no trace of fruit except for the flowers.
Of course, due to a part of the peach trees, it was transplanted to other locations in the orchard.
In order to fill some of the voids, there are not only peach trees, but also a lot of cherry blossom trees.
"The view didn't disappoint me!"
Looking at the pink around him, Meng Zhou said with great satisfaction.
He didn't go into the hot spring pool to take a look, it was hot even in the morning in the summer, and he didn't want to wait for the next sweat to come out.
After a little walk around the mountain, Meng Zhou walked back.
The boundary of the back mountain is too big, and if you really want to walk around, it will be more than that.
After walking for a while, Meng Zhou felt that he was also hungry, and he could go back to breakfast.
Mu Mingyue got up early and came back to the mountain here in order to get up in the morning to practice martial arts.
And Meng Zhou's this is purely to come out and take a stroll, and then move his body by the way.
As for morning exercise or something, I used to have it, but in the past few years, I have almost lost this good habit.
Looking at the swaying branches along the way, feeling the fresh air coming with the wind, Meng Zhou was very comfortable.
No one could have imagined the beautiful scenery in front of them.
A few months ago, it was a desolate hillside with nothing but rocks and sand.
In addition to dust, there is dust in the air.
But in just a few months, so much has changed here.
This couldn't help but make Meng Zhou a little dazed for a while.
Penglai Star is getting better and better, which makes him full of confidence in the future.
