Before going to Yangcheng, Gao Mingcheng still had some things to do.

The work in the fields and the livestock at home have been entrusted to him, but the beehives in the mountains have to be managed by himself.

Originally, he made twenty beehives, and then he made twenty beehives, and these forty beehives were scattered in the mountains, and he had to go to check them every few days.

It depends on whether there is a nectar source nearby, if not, then you have to move the beehive and go to find a new nectar source, otherwise if the nectar source is not enough, it will cause bee fights.

It also depends on the development of the colony, if there are too many bees in a hive, and a new queen bee is reproduced, then it is necessary to guard against splitting, lest the bees run away.

In addition to these, you have to observe whether there are any wasps to eat the bees and steal honey, if there is, don't be soft when you see it, you must kill the wasps!

Gao Mingcheng checked the beehive one by one, observing the situation inside the beehive, if there is enough honey, then you can find a time to shake the honey.

Recently, there are many sources of honey in the mountains, and the Italian bees are actively collecting honey, and there is a lot of honey on the bee spleen, and there are many bees, which are all newly bred small bees.

In the process of checking, Gao Mingcheng appropriately moved part of the beehive, and also killed the wasp he saw, he had good eyesight, his hand was accurate, and he fell with a stick, and a wasp fell to the ground and lost his life.

Since he killed the black bear, the honey in the mountain beehives have never been stolen, and he went up the mountain several times to find the black bear cub and the injured tiger, but these two guys, who became protected animals in later generations, disappeared in this mountain forest.

Maybe he left here, or maybe he died in some unknown corner.

Since then, there have been no black bears or South China tigers in the mountains on their side.

Hearing the news, Gao Mingcheng was quite emotional, but returning to this special point in time and experiencing some things that he had not experienced in his previous life, he also had some excitement in his heart.

After checking the beehives, Gao Mingcheng took the opportunity to check the growth of Poria cocos, when Poria cocos was just planted, there would be some dead seedlings, which needed to be pulled out in time, but now the plants that are still alive have grown very well, and they don't need to be taken care of, just wait for the brewing of time, so that Poria cocos will keep growing, absorbing the nutrients in the pine wood, and then grow mature Poria cocos.

After finishing all this, Gao Mingcheng couldn't stop, he came to the hill he planned to contract.

This hill is not very special, it is just a small hill that is not too big or small, and if you look down on it, this small hill is like the point at the end of the oxtail.

Walking to this hill from where Gao Mingcheng lives, when you are at the foot of the mountain, you will encounter a depression, it is precisely because of the obstruction of this depression that very few people in the village enter this hill to get firewood, so the grass and trees in this hill are luxuriant, and there is almost no way to go.

Gao Mingcheng picked up the path he could walk, crossed the depression, and entered the mountain.

The mountain road was difficult, so he came with a knife to open the mountain, and along the way, he cut down the grass and trees that grew wantonly, and opened a path that only allowed one person to pass.

He had only looked at it from a distance before, and had not come to check it in person, but when he proposed that he might want to contract this mountain forest, the people from the village committee came to see it, and the village party secretary also talked to him, saying that if he was willing to contract, the village could give him a preferential price, which was six yuan and five per acre.

Huanglin Bay is seven yuan per acre, and six yuan and five here, which is five cents cheaper, which does not seem to be much, but in fact, it can save a lot in a year.

As long as someone in the village is willing to contract, they can talk to the village committee and then submit the bid, and if there are many people who submit it, they will finally have to bid.

But Gao Mingcheng is not in a hurry at all, in his previous life, the entire mountains and forests of Gaojia Village have not been contracted, and everything is naturally grown.

This hill is the most suitable for contract afforestation, but for Gao Mingcheng, for the rest of the village, this hill does not have much economic timber, and after cutting the wood, they don't know what to plant, and even if they do, they don't know how to open up sales.

At this time, it is difficult to make money, and it costs a lot of money to contract mountains and forests, and ordinary people do not have the courage to do it.

If they really have this money, they will also use it to build houses, marry daughters-in-law for their children and grandchildren, and so on.

Gao Mingcheng walked in the mountains, carefully surveying the vegetation in the mountains as he walked.

At the foot of the mountain, there is a large piece of bamboo, which is the kind of small bamboo, not Nanzhu, and the economic value of this kind of bamboo is far lower than that of Nanzhu.

On the side of the bamboo, there are similar leaves, the leaves are used to wrap zongzi, every Dragon Boat Festival, the people in the village will go to the mountains to pick the leaves, or use them to make their own zongzi, or take them to the county to sell.

For the people in the village, the leaves can be found everywhere, but for the people in the city, many things have to be bought.

The academic name of this thing is Zongye, but for the people in the village, it is called Zongye, because it is used to wrap Zongzi.

In addition to wrapping zongzi, it can also be used as an inner lining for bucket hats.

Bamboo, hoop leaves, and some unknown low shrubs, all growing together in a haphazard manner, after crossing this place, entered the hillside, and finally the hillside had tall trees, carefully identified, among them were tung trees, locust trees, camphor trees, bitter oak trees, and a lotus tree.

This lotus tree belongs to the camellia family, the superba genus, it will bloom, the flowers are quite good-looking, when the flowering period, the tree is full of flowers, quite pleasing to the eye.

There are taller trees to block the sun, there are fewer weeds on the ground, and the road is relatively easy to walk, all the way to the top of the mountain, Gao Mingcheng finally saw some valuable trees - fir trees.

Three cedar trees grow in a staggered manner, one large and two small, and after being cut down, they are somewhat useful.

Standing on the top of the hill and looking around, you will see several wild loquat trees, mulberry trees, chestnut trees, twisted trees, etc., which are all common tree species in the village, and the trees that cannot be sold for a price after being cut down.

He paced in the mountains, feeling the real terrain, and many images kept flashing in his mind, all of which were pictures of how to cut down the land and how to plant sugar oranges.

"Hey, that's a big project! But after doing a good job, it is also quite exciting, in the future, in the mountains to raise a batch of chickens, a group of ducks, and then buy some fish fry to put in the pond, and then nothing to go to the mountains to catch a chicken to eat, you can also fish to pass the time, it is also very good. Gao Mingcheng muttered to himself, when these pictures came to his mind, he suddenly realized, isn't this the life that many people dream of after retirement?

There is a vegetable patch, a pond, a fruit grove, a flock of chickens and ducks, and a few huts.

Such a life scene will definitely be loved by people who have no pressure to survive.

When Gao Mingcheng felt that this kind of life was also quite good, he realized that he was back to being a young person, and he no longer had the momentum of his real youth.

Young people in the countryside are eager to leave here, go to the world of flowers, experience more levels of life, and harvest more money and careers.

Isn't that exactly what Gao Mingcheng is like? In his previous life, he chased fame and fortune, although he gained a lot, he also lost more, but despite this, his heart was still wandering outside, and only when he settled down would he suddenly wake up.
