Dashan Orchard 1988

Chapter 9 Little sister, please take the west exit

Li Muyang estimated that Taoshan was left alone for now anyway, and no one would even think of contracting it.

Just gave him an opportunity to take advantage of.

It is estimated that it can be contracted at the cheapest price.

money……

But then the question of money came to mind.

To contract Momoyama, no matter how cheap it is, it still requires a lot of money. He currently does not have the ability to do so.

If one acre of land costs 1 yuan, then it should cost 300 yuan.

He calculated his money last night. He had accumulated it through hard work, plus the pension money given to his mother by his brothers and sisters. He only saved a total of more than 70 yuan.

It's just not enough to watch.

He has experienced the world after the economy was highly developed in later generations, and he knows that at that time prices soared, people's incomes also increased a lot, and 70 yuan was just a breakfast for many rich people.

But in this day and age, money is still valuable.

70 yuan can buy more than 100 kilograms of white flour. If you buy sorghum noodles or buckwheat noodles, you can have more than 200 kilograms, enough for him and his wife to make do with food for half a year.

He has kept his family expenses to a minimum and wants to save as much money as possible to buy medicine for his mother.

After my mother became paralyzed, she had to take medicine to lower her blood pressure. Once the medicine was stopped, she would soon be unable to speak properly.

Li Muyang did not dare to spend the money he spent to save his mother's life.

As for the daughter-in-law...

He thought he had thought about it, but he was embarrassed when he thought about the hundreds of yuan in gift. In his previous life, he even suspected that he might have to be a bachelor for the rest of his life.

Now that he is reborn, he must do whatever he can to make himself richer. Not to mention becoming rich and famous, at least he should let me enjoy some blessings and let his wife Lin Xiuli, who will marry in the future, suffer less.

Rural people attach great importance to the pomp of marriage. When a girl gets married, her parents will have face, and so will the girl.

If you marry poorly, you will not be able to hold your head high in front of others.

Similarly, if the ceremony of marrying a girl is in place, the neighbors will respect her when she comes to her husband's house. Otherwise, many people will think that she is a loser and will not take her seriously.

A perfect remnant of feudalism.

In his previous life, Li Muyang had no money, and his wife Lin Xiuli was very shabby when she came to the house. Although his wife didn't say anything, she was still envious every time she saw other girls' lively weddings for many years.

This is Lin Xiuli’s lifelong regret.

She can't let her have any more regrets in this life.

In addition to his wife, Li Muyang also wants to repay his brothers and sisters who seem to have a lot of problems, but in fact have helped him.

Born in such a family, where everyone lives an average life, it is unrealistic to say that anyone should help anyone a lot.

In his previous life, the eldest brother wanted to take him to be a carpenter, but he was not as handy as the eldest brother. The second brother also wanted to take him to be a mason, but he was afraid of heights.

Lao Liu thought about letting him be the cook, but he was not sensitive to taste and his taste was too bland, so the dishes he made could not satisfy the guests.

The eighth brother asked him to do business with him, but he was too honest, didn't know how to solicit business, and couldn't speak to anyone he saw.

The eldest brother-in-law worked in the Grain Bureau and found him a job as a janitor at the grain depot. He also broke into the security captain and his sister-in-law.

The second sister and brother-in-law asked him to clean up the garbage in the school, and he went to deal with the teachers who punished the students...

In short, he failed to do anything.

According to the younger sister Li Xiangyuan, Fifth Brother is a useless good old man. This kind of person should not exist in the world and will be eliminated sooner or later.That's why I say he is the least promising one.

Li Muyang smiled bitterly and reluctantly left "his" Taoshan.

I know how to play with peach trees, but not now.

His top priority is to dig up Cordyceps sinensis and make some money first.

If he misses this kind of good opportunity, I'm afraid it won't be easy to find another one. Whether it's for his mother's medical treatment or the contracting of an orchard, he needs this money very much.

The peach trees are not in a hurry this month. It doesn’t matter whether they do it or not. The peach trees are right where they are, and they won’t suddenly grow legs and run away.

"Sister, please go to the west entrance. Brother, I burst into tears. When I think that my sister is not at home, who can warm my hot bed..."

Humming a song that he had randomly adapted without knowing the original words, Li Muyang walked through Taoshan and walked slowly westward.

Xishan Xishan, as the name suggests, is the west side of Guoziling.

There is no need to look at the direction, just walk west along the peach forest. There are no formal roads in the mountains. If you can get down, just keep walking forward.

The mountain road was rugged, and it was difficult to walk with one foot high and one foot low. Before he had gone far, a lot of soil got into his old cloth shoes, which made him feel uncomfortable.

I wanted to insist on walking to a longer road, but my feet were really hurting and every step I took was painful. I had no choice but to sit on the grass by the side of the road, take off my cloth shoes, and knock them hard against the side. The lump was poured out.

Li Muyang is wearing the mille-layer bottoms that people here like to wear. They are very sturdy.

When I was still able to move, my mother knew that he was alone and there was no woman at home to make shoes for him, so she made many pairs for him.

Later, my mother collapsed on the kang. He didn't have any new shoes for a long time. He just sewed the shoes with his toes outside slightly with cloth and reluctantly continued to wear them.

If the uppers and soles could be separated, he would directly tie the shoes with wire holes.

Although it looks ugly, it is well-dressed.

Later, the second sister-in-law Zhao Yali saw that he was pitiful, so she took the time to help him make shoes. Her two sisters also helped him make one or two pairs from time to time, barely supporting his feet.

Today, I was thinking that I was going to dig Cordyceps in the fields, which would definitely cost a lot of money on shoes, so I didn’t wear any better shoes, but wore a pair of worn-out “wire shoes” that had been remodeled.

The front mouth of the shoe is wide open, and it cannot block the dirt and impurities at all. All the dirt and impurities escape from the open "big mouth" and run into the shoe.

The diaphragm cannot respond well.

After Li Muyang finished dumping the soil, he continued to move forward without taking a rest.

Peach blossoms are very beautiful at this time. Peach blossoms are in full bloom all over the mountains and plains. When a mountain breeze comes, the fallen flowers are in full bloom. The sky is filled with peach blossom petals, and the ground is covered with green grass. When the petals fall, they seem to bloom from the green grass. The small pink flowers are particularly beautiful.

Li Muyang walked forward on the flowers and grass, thinking about how he worked hard to make money day and night for a few children in his previous life. He never had time to look down at the small flowers in the mountain stream, nor did he seriously look up at the leisurely white clouds in the sky. It was really... It's a pity.

Now that I am back here, I realize that many beautiful things are actually around me, but I have been completely ignored because I was too busy.

but……

Now he still doesn't have time. When he finishes digging up the cordyceps and goes to work on Peach Mountain, he can slowly enjoy this leisurely pastoral life and appreciate this beautiful scenery.

Half an hour later, Li Muyang walked through the entire peach blossom forest and arrived at the westernmost part of Peach Mountain.

Standing on the mountainside.

In front of him was a valley more than 100 meters wide and 600 meters deep.

Malian Valley has arrived.
