Chapter 872: Finding the Fruit Tree

Something like a dragon's eye isn't a rarity, but it's not easy to preserve.

If you take it off in advance when it is young, it is not easy to cook, and the taste is not good. It is even more difficult to ship it after it is cooked, but it can be broken in two or three days.

Most of the time you can go to the capital, they are made of dried longan, although the taste is also very good, but it is not as fresh as it, right?

Mu Ling had seen a lot of them at the night market yesterday, and he was even more cheerful when he ate them, and he was more and more happy when he saw them today.

Liang Chu couldn't help but smile and said: "I bought a lot of them yesterday, if you want to eat, it's better to pick some up when you start the boat, otherwise it's a waste to pick them up early." ”

"No, since I met today, I'll pick some back." Mu Ling shook his head.

"So I'll pick some first." Liang Chu didn't like to whet her interest, so he instructed the secret guard to find two bamboo baskets and write down the place.

After a while, the two of them came to the front of the courtyard.

It was a very ordinary small courtyard, with vines entwined in some places on the walls, and low shrubs planted at the foot of the walls, which were lush and green.

The door was closed, and there was no lock on the door, so it seemed that the owner was there.

"Hello! Anyone? ”

Mu Ling stepped forward and knocked on the door twice, but after a while, he didn't see anyone answering, so he couldn't help frowning slightly, turned around and said to Liang Chu: "Could there be no one inside?" ”

Her mouth pursed slightly, and there was a look of disappointment in her eyes, which made people unbearable for a while.

Liang Chu stretched out his hand and took the person in his arms and looked up. The fruit tree was tall, and you could see the branches sticking out, and it was full of dragon's eyes.

Thinking about seeing so many longans that she couldn't pick, she was very unwilling.

"Let's wait for now, it's still early, and the master may be lazy and still sleeping."

Liang Chu smiled and comforted gently, and raised his head to glance at the secret guard in the dark.

Now that the hour has come, it is time for this master to wake up, no matter how lazy he is. And there is such a big movement in front of him, even if the master can't hear it, there should always be a janitor or a watchdog or something like that, right?

However, there is no movement at all now, and I am afraid that there is something strange.

In any case, it's better to be cautious when you're out and about.

Thinking like this, Liang Chu was even more reluctant to let Mu Ling go in and take risks, so he sent a secret guard in first to find out the situation inside.

The dark guard came out not long after entering: "Master! ”

"How?"

There was only one old woman, who had been dead for a long time, and was lying in bed as a dried corpse. Other than that, there was no one, and there was no trace of a fight. ”

"Huh?" Mu Ling's eyes widened, a little surprised.

Liang Chu subconsciously protected the person in his arms, and glanced coldly at the secret guard by the way: "There is no danger in the investigation?" ”

He only said that there was no one in the house, and such a trivial thing could not be done, which frightened his Ah Ling.

With such a saying, no matter how delicious the longan is, I'm afraid that Ah Ling doesn't have the heart to pick it up.

I have to say that Liang Chu expected it very accurately, and when Mu Ling heard the situation inside, it was definitely impossible for him to pick the fruit. Not to mention anything else, even the person who collided with it is not good.

The dark guards were blamed by their own masters, and they were very aggrieved, where could they think of such a deep thing!

However, now he didn't dare to cry out for injustice, so he could only make up for his mistakes and continued: "My subordinates went down to investigate, and the old man went peacefully, so he just wanted to go to the government to report the case." Master, do you want to talk to the city lord? ”

"Call someone from the government." Liang Chu waved his hand impatiently.

They just wanted to pick a fruit, where did they expect to encounter such a thing.

If you can't pick the fruit, it's okay, and if you spoil your mood because of this, it's the biggest loss.

Mu Ling looked at the courtyard, although he felt a little regretful that he couldn't pick the longan. But when the government comes, there will definitely be a lot of noise, and she naturally won't be able to stay here to pick fruits.

Sighing, Mu Ling had no choice but to say helplessly: "Since that's the case, then call the government to deal with it." I don't know if this old man has children, and if he does, it's a pity. Let's look elsewhere first, maybe there are other fruits. ”

This is the season when most tropical fruits are ripe, and Mu Ling does not want to miss it.

Liang Chu saw that she was not affected by anything, and his heart was a little relieved, and he also nodded: "Then go to other places to see, although there are people in Wushuang City who will pick some fruit trees, but there are not many people who want to come, why don't you go to the mountains to have a look, maybe you can find something." ”

"On the mountain?" Mu Ling pondered, "All the fruits grown at home are home, and you can get three points of farm fertilizer on weekdays, if you grow on the mountain and compete with other weeds and trees for living space, the fruits will not be so delicious." ”

Chickens, ducks, fish, etc., which want to eat game, are the best ones raised in the mountains. But the fruit is still carefully cultivated.

Liang Chu touched her hair: "Let's take a look first, there are many fruit trees on the mountains in this area." If you think about it, someone will take care of one or two, otherwise it won't grow. ”

Although he was reluctant, Mu Ling nodded.

She was thinking if she could find some other fruits, and now she would just try her luck in the mountains!

"In fact, instead of leaving these mountains deserted, it is better to reclaim them and plant fruit trees. When the canal is up, the time to transport supplies can be greatly shortened, and it will be easier to transport the fruit and sell it. ”

"That's a good idea."

There are many mountains in Wushuang City, which is also called a mountain city.

Liang Chu was reluctant to ask her to go to the barren mountains and dense forests outside the city, so he only took her to the mountains inside the city.

The mountain is not high, but it is better than the rolling hills, but it also has a flavor. Even if you can't find the fruit, it's also excellent for viewing.

At the foot of the mountain, there are a few sporadic people, wearing long shirts, dressed as scholars, going up the mountain in groups of three or five, thinking that they are going to go to the green and play.

Mu Ling was also a little interested when he saw it, and grabbed Liang Chuxing and rushed up the mountain.

A pavilion was built halfway up the mountain, creating a large area for resting. But at this point, there is no way up.

There were already a few people resting in the pavilion, and there were also people playing in the open space on the other side.

Mu Ling looked around for a while, and saw that the surrounding trees were dense, but they were all ordinary pine trees and cypresses, and there was no shadow of fruit trees, so he couldn't help but feel a little depressed.

"How is it that such a big mountain doesn't even have a single fruit tree?"

"You're looking for fruit trees?" Someone next to her heard her muttering, and couldn't help but exaggerate and shouted, "Every family in my Wushuang City has fruit trees, and the best fruit is in the hundred fruit orchards in the City Lord's Mansion, if Madam wants to see the fruit trees, it is better to go to the City Lord's Mansion." As for this mountain......

Hey?

"How's it going on the hill?" Whether it was that person selling Guan Zi or not, it obviously aroused Mu Ling's interest.
