Chapter 60 Life with Hainan Huanghuali Wood

"What's the matter, I was thinking about things just now." Li Tong painfully rubbed the bruised skin on his forearm.

Since the last conversation outside Xu's house, Li Tong found that his relationship with Xu Jingli had progressed by leaps and bounds, and this little girl's attitude towards Li Tong was no longer cold, not only did she often take the initiative to talk to Li Tong, but occasionally brought Li Tong a boiled egg, orchid beans, dried tofu and other delicious foods from home.

But there is one thing that Xu Jingli hates deeply, not that she gives herself a shameless nickname, but that she likes to pinch people very much, and she is the kind of person who pinchs people without knowing the severity.

"Hmph, my mother asked me to ask you, is there really no problem with the cabbage!" After Xu Jingli rolled his eyes at Li Tong, he repeated what he had just said angrily.

Li Tong replaced the Chinese textbook standing on the desk with a math textbook, and said: "This matter, I didn't receive a notice from Grandma Lu to cancel the transaction, there should be no problem, you just wait to eat Chinese cabbage and eat it." ”

"I'm really curious about what this Grandma Lu does, how can she have so much delicious food, didn't you say that she also gave me the duck intestines you gave me last time?" Xu Jingli asked suddenly.

Li Tong paused for a moment, he was a little unsure if it was Xu Jingli's curiosity, or if Xu Jingli was just passing on a word for Xu Huizhen.

But whoever wanted to know, Li Tong felt that he had to dismiss their thoughts immediately.

"Grandma Lu once reminded me that if Aunt Xu asks about her identity, let me tell Aunt Xu four words."

"What four words?" Xu Jingli said curiously.

Li Tong stared into Xu Jingli's eyes and spit out word by word.

"It's your business!"

Xu Jingli pursed her lips and was about to push her hand on Li Tong's arm, but Li Tong reached out first to cover her lips, only to see Li Tong shrug his shoulders and smile.

"Grandma Lu really told me these four words, and warned me that if Aunt Xu dared to ask about her identity again, I would immediately cut off the relationship with Aunt Xu completely."

Xu Jingli shook her little head and broke free of Li Tong's palm, looked at Li Tong fiercely and asked, "Shameless, are you listening to Grandma Lu?" Or listen to me? ”

"I listen to all of you, Grandma Lu has a lot of delicious food, and you are the person I am most willing to be with." Li Tong raised his right hand and accused.

"Hmph, which of us is big and who is small?" Xu Jingli widened her eyes and stared at Li Tong intently.

"That's definitely your age, it's a big deal, let's not eat her delicious food, what boiled duck eggs, braised duck legs, braised duck racks, spicy duck intestines, spicy duck collarbones, spicy duck feet, etc." Xu Jingli's gaze was so dazzling that Li Tong simply lowered his head and did not look at Xu Jingli, and counted the delicacies he had given her to taste these days one by one with his fingers.

"You told me that I was hungry, do you still have a braised duck rack? I didn't even eat a few pieces last time, and I was robbed of them all by the second child. Xu Jingli licked her lower lip, her sharp gaze softened, and she could even be said to be waiting for Li Tong to nod her head earnestly.

This is also another shortcoming that Li Tong found on Xu Jingli, greedy mouth.

She likes to eat spicy food, and it can even be said that she can't stop it, Li Tong seriously suspects that Xu Jingli must be a Sichuan-Chongqing girl in her last life.

Li Tong scraped the tip of Xu Jingli's cute nose with his fingers, blinked his eyes and said, "Yes, how could it not be, I will bring it to you at night, and there is still a copy of your favorite spicy duck intestine left." ”

Xu Jingli pursed her mouth to express her dissatisfaction with Li Tong's small actions just now, but the joy on her face that could not be concealed indicated that she was in a very good mood now.

The last class of the morning was mathematics, and the teacher kept calculating a variety of problem-solving ideas on the blackboard, Xu Jingli listened very carefully, and Li Tong returned to the virtual farm early.

In the past week, the virtual farm has undergone tremendous changes thanks to Li Tong's uninterrupted efforts.

First of all, there is an extra group of more than 100 hemp ducks on the lake, the specific number should be 136, Li Tong is now picking up duck eggs three times a week, as much as possible to ensure that the number of hemp ducks will not explode in a short time.

The two parts of the southeast corner of the black soil farmland were surrounded by Li Tong with willow planks and used as the first phase of the ginseng garden. At present, the ginseng seedlings visible to the naked eye are still very weak, and Li Tong is always worried about what to do if the ginseng seedlings drown when it rains heavily one day in the virtual farm.

Except for the ginseng garden, the rest of the land is planted with green cabbage seedlings, which is not the first Chinese cabbage planted, the first Chinese cabbage has been harvested and stored in the newly built warehouse the day before yesterday.

The first crop of Chinese cabbage harvested a total of 28,000 catties, each Chinese cabbage not only balls firm, the appearance has been, and the weight of a single piece is more than 3.5 kilograms, the yard in the warehouse is like a thick wall with fat cabbage, looking at it makes people feel down-to-earth.

In order to weigh and pack these Chinese cabbages, Li Tong also went to the Red Star Weights and Measures store on Qianmen Street to buy rod scales and fine hemp rope, and made a bundle of four cabbages, and the total amount of a bundle was almost 15 kilograms.

The warehouse of piling cabbage is Li Tong with ten meters high willow wood as the beam and column, supplemented by the willow plank with a width of half a meter long and two meters thick and five centimeters thick using Li Tong from the ancient building books to combine the boring tenon and tenon one by one, the corners are also treated by the way of zongjiao tenon, and finally the roof of the warehouse and the fixing of the sixteen beams and columns are combined with the flat tenon and tenon.

The construction of the warehouse took Li Tong a long time, especially the slots for each willow board in the early stage, and Li Tong still feels very bitter in retrospect. The building does not use the way of layering dougongs, and simple and rough may be the best adjective for the first building built by Li Tong.

Ugly is a little ugly, but fortunately, the space inside is large enough, and the 28,000 catties of Chinese cabbage placed in it only occupy less than one-twentieth of the area of the warehouse, and Li Tong feels that it is enough in a short time.

In addition to the warehouse building that was put into use, in the grass north of Baishi Plateau, there were about two or three thousand catties of Chinese cabbage that had not been harvested, and these Chinese cabbage Li Tong prepared to leave for the duck flock as a buffet for foraging.

In addition to these, Li Tong once considered building a pig breeding and universal library on the north side of Baishi Highland, and a large number of "treasures" are buried in the grass at this moment.

600 Hainan rosewood species!

These seeds were found when Li Tong went to the seed station to buy Chinese cabbage seeds two days ago, because the growth cycle of Hainan Huanghua rosewood takes 100~500 years, so these tree species were shelved by the seed station and became a kind of conversation between the salesman and the customer.

After confirming with Li Tong repeatedly, the salesperson of the seed station sold the Hainan yellow rosewood tree species priced at 5 cents to Li Tong with a foolish look.

A hundred years may represent a lifetime in the eyes of others, and it is indeed a waste to plant trees.

But Li Tong has a virtual farm in his hand, and fifteen years later, when Li Tong is 24 years old, Li Tong will be able to harvest 600 Hainan Huanghua rosewoods!

Of course, fifteen years later, the price of domestic precious wood has not begun to heat up, and when the rise of mahogany furniture at the beginning of the 21st century, Li Tong planted in the virtual farm Hainan Huanghua rosewood tree is almost 300 years old, and the estimated value of a 300-year-old Hainan Huanghuali tree is about 100 million.

If the ginseng garden was prepared by Li Tong for his eldest brother Li Qingguo, then these 600 Hainan rosewood trees are the foundation that Li Tong made for the rest of his life.
