Chapter 685: Fruit Grove
Taking advantage of the Chinese New Year, Guan Wen also relaxed his nerves that had been tense for a long time, so he stole a few days to relax and rest for a few days. However, with the Lantern Festival approaching on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Guan Wen and Li Xin still have to go back to the town. Not only did Guan Wen need to take ideas about some things in the shop, but Guan Wen also thought that Yang'er and Youyou were also older, and the Lantern Festival in the town should also take them to see it to make them happy.
After sorting out the account books at home, Li Xin called Uncle Chen and Granny Hua to solemnly instruct him.
Granny Hua asked Li Xindao: "I see that those big families will set up a village or something in the village, and our village also has one." I think the feng shui of our place is very good, has the main family ever thought about finding a place to start a Zhuangzi? ”
Li Xin was stunned for a moment, and Granny Hua continued: "Don't talk about it, it's that if you get married in the future, you will marry a field shop or something, and the main family will naturally consider it, but if you can add a Zhuangzi, you will have a place to settle down." ”
Li Xin pondered for a while and felt that what Granny Hua said was very reasonable.
Mrs. Shen Si went crazy after the child was gone, wasn't she also sent to Zhuangzi to recuperate? The countryside is quiet and the air is good, and Li Xin didn't want to move to the town for this reason at first. Compared to the town, the countryside is much more open.
Qingya also smiled on the side: "Madam, the slave maid thinks that Granny Hua is quite right, start a small Zhuangzi, before the young lady gets married, the lord and the lady can also come to play." ”
Li Xin touched his chin: "This is feasible, but there are several kinds of Zhuangzi, such as Hot Spring Zhuangzi, Orchard Zhuangzi, and Grange with ordinary farm properties...... We don't have a hot spring here, and the general farms are in the name of our family, and there is no place to build a village around the neighborhood. ”
Li Xin thought for a while and said, "It seems that the fruit forest next to Lijia Village in the southwest has no owner?" ”
Granny Hua nodded and said: "That place is indeed ownerless, but the slope is a little steep, in the past, some babies liked to pick the ownerless fruit to eat, but then something strange happened, and the villagers said that the place was evil, and the babies were no longer allowed to go." Over time, the fruit grove became idle. The people in Lijia Village and Lotus Village all know about this. ”
Li Xin was a little surprised, "I haven't heard much of it." Then he asked curiously, "What's the strange thing?" ”
"It is said that one day five babies met together to beat dates, three babies went up the tree to hook dates, two babies were picked up below, the weather was good, and suddenly it was cloudy, and then I heard a muffled thunder, and it rained soon after. The five babies originally wanted to go home, but they were reluctant to go home, so the three on the tree continued to hook the dates, and the two under the tree were next to the trunk, sheltering from the rain through the branches and leaves. ”
Li Xin suddenly felt that something was wrong: how could he hide under a tree on a rainy day?
Granny Hua continued: "Everyone doesn't know what happened in the middle, but after the rain stopped, several adults came out to look for the baby, only to find that the five babies, three of them were hanging on the tree, and they were all silent, and one of them was also out of breath, and the remaining one was probably frightened, and since then he has been stupid." What happened that day also came out of his mouth intermittently, and he said that he saw a bright light, and if he said it later, he could not understand. ”
Li Xin secretly regretted herself, thinking that these children were probably struck by lightning.
Li Xin said: "What about later? ”
Later, everyone said that the four babies were killed by thunder, and they went to the forest to beat dates, which violated the taboo of the gods. There are even more people with broken mouths, saying that the family who was killed by lightning did something immoral and unkind, and the retribution was on the children and grandchildren. It's really pitiful to think about those families...... Soon after, because the gossip was too distressing, the families of the dead baby moved their families, and the rest of the baby's dementia family also felt that it was a sad place, and moved away. After the rumors subsided, everyone didn't dare to let their children go to the fruit forest, for fear that their children would also commit the taboo of the gods. ”
This is truly a tragedy...... If you had common sense and knew that you can't hide under a big tree during thunder and lightning, maybe this kind of thing won't happen.
It can only be said that what happened at that time was too coincidental.
"What is the charter in the village?"
"I don't want to touch it, and I don't have any other charter." Uncle Chen replied on the side: "What Sister Hua said was decades ago, for decades, that fruit forest has been growing there, but no one dares to pick the fruit when it is ripe, it is all ripe and falls to the ground and slowly rots." I've been there a few times, but I think it's a pity, but I don't dare to ...... if I get it."
"But that piece of land is always scratched out, isn't it?"
"I'll have to ask the village chief." Granny Hua said, and looked at Li Xin with some concern: "Madame shouldn't be interested in that place, right?" But don't, I always feel ...... that place It's a bit of an evil one. ”
Li Xin smiled, of course she didn't believe those rumors. Didn't everyone say that they would offend the lotus god when they dug the lotus pond? But over the years, I haven't seen the lotus god retaliate, Sun Hongyan came to the door to ask Guan Wen to cooperate with him, and wanted to promote this industry as a wealthy industry in Lotus Village.
Thinking of this, Li Xin's eyes suddenly lit up.
That night, Li Xin mentioned to Guan Wen about the fruit grove in the southwest corner.
Li Xin said: "I asked Uncle Chen, and he said that the forest is about forty acres, and there are many kinds of fruit trees, and they are fruitful every autumn, but unfortunately no one dares to pick them." If we can buy this land, and the Zhuangzi will come second, the fruit forest can be regarded as an input. ”
Guan Wen disagreed: "Don't go into the eyes of money, that forest is unlucky, and you can't buy it anywhere." ”
Li Xin suddenly frowned: "When I dug the lotus pond, I didn't see you scruple about the lotus god." ”
Guan Wen said with a smile: "I was also scruple at that time, but seeing that your interest is quite high, I don't want to disturb your interest." Besides, at that time, you were supporting the family, and if you wanted to do something, if I still opposed you, I would always feel sorry for you. But Xin'er, now that our family is not short of those few dollars, why take the risk to buy that fruit forest? What if there is a mistake? ”
Guan Wen held Li Xin's hand and said, "Isn't it good for us to do this?" ”
Li Xin pursed his mouth and said, "I'm not looking at money, I just want to have more industries in the village...... I don't believe in any evil sects, Granny Hua told me about the mystery of the forest, in fact, ......"
Li Xin whispered to Guan Wen about the dangers of standing under a big tree to avoid the rain on a thunderous day, and said: "That incident is a coincidence, and those babies died unjustly." But it's really because of this, you let me see that the opportunity in front of me is not seized, how can I be willing...... You do your business in the town, and the income in my village is no worse than the income in your town. Food, clothing, housing and transportation are the first priority. We also have a field property, a real estate, a lotus pond, and many fruit farms...... I wake up laughing when I fall asleep. Besides, there is really a fruit forest, and you don't need to buy fresh fruits in the future, and you don't need to buy them elsewhere, and you can rest assured that your own products are natural. Besides, isn't your brewery still researching new varieties? The last time you asked Cousin Changsheng to make wine from lychee, it was sweet and silky, and I thought it was very good, because I had my own fruit, so I didn't need to buy the raw materials for the new variety of wine......
Li Xin is in good spirits today, and he doesn't feel tired after talking for a long time, he only pesters Guan Wen, and there is only one central idea: that is, let him discuss with Sun Hongyan to buy that fruit forest.
Guan Wen couldn't, sighed, thought for a while, and said, "I'll discuss it with the second and fourth brothers tomorrow, don't worry about it first." ”
On the second day, Guan Wen called Guan Wu and Guan Quan, repeated Li Xin's words, and said: "Your sister-in-law said that the reason for that incident is this, she wants to buy that forest, what do you think?" ”
Guan Wu rubbed his hands hesitantly and said, "Big brother, forget it." This...... If you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what happens, and it is not necessary to lack that forest. ”
Guan Wen didn't care too much about the other things Li Xin said, but what she said about the raw materials of the wine shop made Guan Wen a little moved.
Now Guan Wen's two largest money-making shops, one is a fur shop, and the other is a joint shop of a winery and a winery, which produces and sells itself, and the business is very hot. Zhao Changsheng is young, bold, and daring, and he really got several new varieties for him, and now they are not only sold in Huixian, but also sold to Yizhou, and even other state capitals have passed by and wholesaled them back to other places to sell.
If there are more varieties, then the business opportunities are naturally unlimited.
Guan Wu: This is to give objections.
But Guan Quan suddenly stood up and said, "If the eldest brother has concerns, this fruit forest, it is better to leave it to me." ”
Kwan was surprised.
Guan Quan said with a smile: "Some time ago, I have been helping my eldest brother run business, contacting various businesses, eating, drinking, and flattering, I am a little annoyed, and it just so happened that this matter came out, so I was relieved to stay in the village for a while." ”
Guan Wendao: "I haven't decided to buy that fruit forest yet, and I'm still discussing it with you." After all...... If there is really something evil, it is also a matter for our family. ”
Guan Quan shook his head: "I think what my sister-in-law said is very reasonable, I believe my sister-in-law's words." ”
Guan Quan patted his chest: "Listening to what the eldest brother said, I think that place is a cornucopia that has not been discovered." If I had enough money, I would buy it myself. ”
Guan Wen laughed when he heard this, looked at Guan Wu, and asked, "Second brother, what do you say?" ”
Guan Wu was slightly deflated.
The four brothers in the family, remove the switch and stop the inheritance, the eldest brother and the fourth brother are better than him. He is a reckless man, and he doesn't think too much about the future, but the eldest brother and the fourth brother are his closest people, and of course he obeys them.
Guan Wu nodded and said, "You all said so, and I don't have a word......
Guan Wen patted Guan Wu on the shoulder: "The eldest brother's property in the village, you have to help the eldest brother take care of it." ”
