Chapter 116 Dress up the mountain again (for subscription, monthly ticket)5000 words

At the gate of Yiling University, Cao Shujie helped his sister take out the suitcase, the fruits brought from home, and the cooked meat from the trunk, and asked his sister, "Do you still need me to send it in for you?"

"Brother, no need, I can carry it. You can go back quickly. If you can't take it upstairs later, I will call Deng Miaoshan and the others to come down and help." Cao Huifang said.

It was not yet six o'clock, and the roommates hadn't woken up yet, so her brother couldn't go upstairs even if he followed him in.

Seeing her brother turn around to leave, Cao Huifang told him again: "Brother, you go back slowly, if you are sleepy, find a place to rest for a while before leaving."

"Okay, just leave me alone, call me if you have anything to do, and tell me if you need money." Cao Shujie said, turned around, opened the car door and sat in the driver's seat, started the car and left.

After Cao Huifang stood in place and watched the car go away, she hung all the other things on the trolley of the suitcase and dragged the suitcase towards her dormitory building.

She is full of plans, less than two years away from graduation, she thought she had plenty of time at first, but after experiencing many things, she realized that there is really not much time left for herself to build up her foundation, just like her brother said , it’s a bit of putting the cart before the horse when going to work in the summer vacation now, I still have to study hard.

Carrying the rising sun on her back, looking at the short shadow cast on the ground, Cao Huifang told herself: "Come on, work hard!"

……

Cao Shujie drove back along the road he came from, and drove for more than half an hour. When Cao Shujie saw a sign saying 'Yingke Flower' on the side of the road, he stepped on the brakes to slow down. After parking the car, he walked directly to a nearby shed.

When he came to the front, Cao Shujie was about to knock on the door, when suddenly there was a dog barking "Wow, woof".

Cao Shujie followed the sound and saw a light yellow haired dog tied to a tree not far away, barking at him.

"Shut up, I'll kill you again." Cao Shujie scolded it.

Maybe it's because he often stays with the four dogs at home. After training them for a long time, he himself is not so afraid of the dogs, and he overwhelms them with momentum. When he stares again, the light yellow-haired native dog on the opposite side immediately shuts up He stopped barking, went around the spot a few times, and lay down on the ground. He looked up at Cao Shujie from time to time, and found that he was staring at him and bent down to pick up something. The earth dog turned around and turned his head back. Butt facing Cao Shujie, out of sight.

"Damn it, so smart!" Cao Shujie was also very surprised, have all the dogs become smart now?

At this time, a voice came from inside the shed: "Don't call Dahuang."

"Who is outside, is there something wrong?"

"Boss, I'm buying flowers." Cao Shujie replied.

"Wait a minute, come right away."

Not long after, a middle-aged woman wearing a plaid apron with sweat on her forehead came out of the shed.

After seeing Cao Shujie, she smiled and asked, "Little brother, were you the one who wanted to buy flowers just now?"

"Yes, big sister, what flowers do you have here?" Cao Shujie asked her.

The middle-aged woman didn't even ask Cao Shujie's name, she directly led him into the shed, and said, "I have a lot of varieties here, and I have all kinds of flowers. Come and have a look yourself."

After entering, Cao Shujie immediately felt that the temperature inside the greenhouse was much higher than outside.

If the normal temperature at this point outside is 10 to [-] degrees, the inside of the greenhouse is at least [-] degrees higher, and the humidity is heavy. Coupled with the high temperature, it makes people feel like a sauna.

Cao Shujie stood there motionless, feeling like he was about to sweat out of his body.

But the flowers of different colors in the greenhouse or various green plants suitable for indoor environment attracted Cao Shujie's attention instantly.

"Sister, you are so beautiful here." Cao Shujie sighed sincerely.

The middle-aged woman smiled: "I still have a relatively comprehensive variety of flowers here, it mainly depends on what you want to grow."

This breath is very big.

Cao Shujie smiled and asked her, "Sister, what's your last name?"

Who knew that this middle-aged woman didn't follow the routine, she said: "Hey, I'm just a hard worker, so there's no such thing as expensive or not. My surname is Song, and I'm older than you. Just call me Sister Song." .”

A very cheerful person.

Cao Shujie was not pretentious, and shouted with a smile: "Sister Song, my surname is Cao, Cao Cao's Cao."

After the introduction, he went on to say: "It's like this. I contracted a piece of mountain to plant fruit trees on our side, and I'm picking them up, but there are very few things to see on the mountain I contracted, and the whole thing is too monotonous. I thought Add a variety of flowers of different varieties, enrich it and make it look better, so that customers who come to pick it will feel that their trip is worthwhile."

After listening to Cao Shujie finished speaking, Song Shuli found it interesting. She looked carefully at Cao Shujie. He was a young man with a Chinese character-shaped face. I can't tell if it's a mole or something else.

His lips were thick and his eyebrows were thick and square.

"Brother Cao, where did you contract the mountain land?" Song Shuli asked.

This matter is very important.

The temperature varies greatly across the country. Some flowers are only suitable for planting in a special temperature range. They may not survive if they are too cold or too hot.

Song Shuli heard that Cao Shujie spoke with a foreign accent, so she was a little uncertain where he was from.

"Sister Song, I am from our Yiling City. I contracted the mountain land in Qingshi Town, Pingyuan County. Do you know where it is?" Cao Shujie tried to explain in detail.

Hearing him talk about this place, Song Shuli looked very familiar: "So you are from Qingshi Town, Pingyuan County, and my partner's house is also nearby, and it is not the same town as you." After Song Shuli finished speaking, she knew it in her heart , She said: "If this is the case, I suggest you plant tree-like lavender, hydrangea, peony, clematis, rose, and Ling Xiaohua. These varieties are fine. It doesn't matter in summer, but it is hardy in winter."

"Other flowers are fine if they are grown indoors or in a place with little temperature difference, but it is useless for us to grow them outdoors." Song Shuli is very serious.

She didn't fool Cao Shujie because he didn't understand this aspect of knowledge, but she actually explained it to him.

After Cao Shujie finished listening, he asked, "Do you have all the things Sister Song said just now?"

"You want them all?" Song Shuli asked him.

Seeing Cao Shujie nodding, Song Shuli was a little embarrassed. She said, "I only have roses, peonies and tree-shaped lavender, and I have to buy the rest."

As she spoke, she led Cao Shujie along the path inside the shed, and came to a separate area, pointing to the pink blooming rose inside and said: "Brother Cao, this is the rose flower, you know this right?" .”

Cao Shujie saw that the flower plant was almost 1 meter high, with dozens of blooming flowers hanging on it, he nodded: "I know."

"This variety is very good, it is easy to care for, and it blooms beautifully, and the flowering period is long."

"In addition, the longer you plant, the taller the flower plant will grow, and the more flowers will bloom."

Cao Shujie nodded and asked, "Sister Song, is there anything else?"

"Yes, you come with me." Song Shuli continued to take Cao Shujie to walk in, and saw peonies and tree-like lavender on the way.

Unfortunately, now is not the time for peonies and tree lavenders to bloom, and Cao Shujie couldn't see them in full bloom either.

He thought for a moment and asked, "Can Sister Song help me get the other three kinds of flowers? Get more."

"How much do you need?" Song Shuli asked him.

If you don't understand this data, the rest is not easy to match.

Cao Shujie told her: "I have contracted a total of 85 acres of mountain land, and the surrounding areas of the mountain land I contracted are basically bare, with only a few wild flowers, which are not very attractive and not coordinated enough."

Song Shuli understood it this time, and she asked in surprise: "Brother Cao, do you mean to plant flowers around you?"

"Have you thought about this? If you grow all kinds of plants, the cost is not low." Song Shuli emphasized this point to him.

She also said: "I thought your side is not very big, and it's okay to plant a few plants to watch and play with, but if you plant a lot, this thing will not produce intuitive benefits."

After Cao Shujie heard Song Shuli finished speaking, he nodded slightly: "Sister Song, if I want more of what you just said, see how much discount I can get. If there is a lot of discount, I won't go to other people's place to see gone."

At any rate, he didn't pretend to say 'money is not a problem'.

"Do you want the six kinds of flowers I just mentioned?" Song Shuli asked him.

Cao Shujie nodded: "If you can get all of them, you can get some of them, and mix them together, so as not to be too monotonous."

"Then I suggest that you don't just plant flowers, but also some holly, pagoda japonica, evergreen, etc. It looks better together." Song Shuli emphasized: "It also saves winter. The other flowers have lost all their leaves, and you can still see them." It's a bit green, right?"

It is such a truth, Cao Shujie did not object.

He said, "It's all right."

"You also need someone to plant flowers?" Song Shuli asked him.

Seeing Cao Shujie nodded, she said: "In this case, let's leave a phone number first, and I will call you after I ask someone else to make a quotation. Brother Cao, you can take a look at that time. How about talking about the rest?"

Cao Shujie nodded and agreed, this is very reliable.

According to what Cao Shujie said, Song Shuli dialed his phone number, and the two exchanged names, and said, "I'll call you as soon as I get the results."

"Sister Song, how many days will there be results?" Cao Shujie asked habitually.

"Tomorrow at the latest." Song Shuli said.

After Cao Shujie left from Song Shuli's side, he continued to drive towards Caojiazhuang.

I just saw this 'Keying Flower' on the way to send his sister here. Thinking that the mountain is too monotonous now, I originally planned to grow some different kinds of flowers to make it look more beautiful.

"By the way, I don't know if the lawn mower Boss Zhao helped me contact has any results?" Cao Shujie remembered another thing.

When he drove past Qingshi Town, he didn't make a phone call, and went directly to Boss Zhao Wenyang's shop.

When I passed by, I saw that the store was already open, and Boss Zhao was walking around in the store.

After stopping the car, Cao Shujie opened the door and walked towards the shop: "Boss Zhao, I'm busy."

His tone is very similar to greeting an old friend.

When Zhao Wenyang saw that it was him, he said "Oops": "Boss Cao, why are you here? I was just thinking about calling you!"

"I just happened to go to the city for some personal business. I passed by here and came to ask you, is that lawn mower available?" Cao Shujie asked him.

"Yes, I'm about to call you too!" Zhao Wenyang said.

Regarding what Zhao Wenyang said, Cao Shujie believed him three points at most.

But then I saw Zhao Wenyang turn on the computer and find a folder. After opening it, he called Cao Shujie over: "Boss Cao, can you see if this works."

"Is this a lawnmower?" Cao Shujie saw in the photo a tracked mechanical vehicle similar to a small bulldozer.

He thinks this thing is much more pleasing to the eye than the hand-held ones that Zhao Wenyang showed him before.

"Yes, this is a lawn mower. The price is much more expensive than the handheld one. Generally, no one buys this kind of machine here, so I didn't buy it. But if Boss Cao wants it, I will contact you." Zhao Wenyang said .

"This one costs [-] yuan less. If Boss Cao is sure he wants it, I will try to lower the price as much as possible."

"Okay, get two." Cao Shujie nodded, the price is not expensive.

The two communicated verbally, and Zhao Wenyang started calling the family in front of Cao Shujie. Finally, after a lot of haggling and haggling, the two crawler mowers included shipping costs, a total of 30800 yuan.

"Boss Cao, please leave less deposit. I will contact you after these two lawn mowers are delivered," Cao Shujie said.

Cao Shujie knew that this was a normal process, so he simply left 2000 yuan to Zhao Wenyang, and the two parties initially signed an agreement.

It also specifically stated in the agreement that if Cao Shujie backs out midway and does not want these two devices, the deposit of 2000 yuan will not be refunded.

After all, Zhao Wenyang also took risks.

After Cao Shujie had breakfast in the town, he returned to Caojiazhuang.

After stopping the car, when Cao Shujie was walking home, he happened to see his wife washing Mengmeng's clothes by hand in the yard, and Mengmeng was playing with two German shepherds beside her.

The little wild cat Huahua was still standing on the roof, looking down from time to time, the cat bowed its waist, and looked like it was ready to attack.

Seeing Cao Shujie coming in, Mengmeng immediately threw off Demu and ran towards him: "Dad, is there anything delicious?"

Cao Shujie looked confused, he looked at his wife, not understanding what was going on.

Cheng Xiaolin said: "You left just now, Mengmeng has to find you, I told her, you went to buy her delicious food."

"Then you don't want to call me and tell me, it's fine, let me prepare." Cao Shujie said to his wife.

Then he hugged Mengmeng, put his hands under her armpits, and spun around in the air. Hearing Mengmeng's giggle, he quickly said: "Mengmeng is so smart, how did you guess that Dad gave her Did you buy something?"

"Really? Where is it? Let me be healthy." Mengmeng smiled even more on her face.

She couldn't wait to take a look.

Cao Shujie carried her into the house: "Father can't let others see, if you steal it again, it will have been hidden in the house."

"I don't believe it! Dad lied to me!" Mengmeng looked at Cao Shujie with disgust.

With such a childish method, she would not be fooled by Mengmeng.

But Cao Shujie said: "Really, if you don't believe me, I'll take you to find it."

Children are children, playing tricks and tricks, and they are several grades behind adults.

When Cao Shujie handed Mengmeng two meat floss and an individually packaged egg roll, she forgot about other things, staring at the meat floss and egg roll, and asked her father to open it for her quickly.

"Dad, open it for me, I want to eat." Mengmeng said.

"Why are you in a hurry, I'll get it for you right away," Cao Shujie said.

These were bought at the Yiling City Department Store last time. Unfortunately, Mengmeng doesn't remember anything. She had already forgotten to buy these things, otherwise it would be really hard to fool them today.

Cheng Xiaolin, who was washing clothes by hand outside, couldn't help laughing when she heard the voices of the father and daughter.

While washing clothes, I suddenly remembered something: "Shujie, Brother Min came to see you just now, and told you to go and see the decoration when you come back."

"Why didn't you go to see it?" Cao Shujie wondered.

Cheng Xiaolin said: "I'm waiting for you to go together. If there is something wrong, let's discuss and change it."

"Okay, let's go now?"

"You are blind, you didn't see me washing clothes, can't you go after I finish washing?" Cheng Xiaolin said.

Cao Shujie laughed and said nothing else.

He played with his daughter for 20 minutes, Cheng Xiaolin finished washing and hanging the clothes, Cao Shujie led the dog, Cheng Xiaolin hugged Mengmeng, and walked to the new house.

It has been more than a month since the renovation of the house began in early August. Except for the carpentry work, everything else is basically finished. Cao Tieming is now leading people to deal with some details.

Seeing that Cao Shujie and his wife had come over, Cao Tiemin took them to see the upper and lower floors together.

I also asked Cao Shujie and Cheng Xiaolin what their opinions were, and if they had no objections, they continued to do carpentry.

"I think it's okay, she's pretty, what do you think of my wife?" Cao Shujie asked his wife.

After reading it, Cheng Xiaolin said, "Yes, I have no objections."

"That's it, hang it out for a few days, and I'll do the rest of the work." Cao Tiemin said.

"Yes, yes!" Cao Shujie nodded in agreement.

Cheng Xiaolin asked, "Brother Min, can you finish this month?"

"Okay, let's hang it for three months after finishing the work, and you can move here before the Spring Festival." Cao Tiemin said.

Hearing what he said, Cheng Xiaolin was very happy. She nodded repeatedly and asked, "Shujie, let's choose furniture and home appliances in a few days."

"It's okay, there's nothing else to do anyway, choose the furniture and appliances in advance, and move them over when the decoration is finished." Cao Shujie said.

After tidying up early, he moved in earlier, so as not to have to turn on the air conditioner for heating in winter. The wind blowing out is too dry, which he is not used to.

After deciding on this matter, Cao Tiemin chatted with them, and then went upstairs to work as a supervisor, watching other people work.

He is very concerned about the decoration of Faxiao's house.
