Luo Xiaomao’s hometown is called Qingyuan, which is a small country not far from S City.

Xu Cinian took the bus for more than two hours and finally arrived at the place. When he got off the bus, he felt that even the air was much fresher than the city.

Although City S is economically developed and is one of the top metropolises in the country, the climate is very dry and rain is rarely seen. Even if it rains a few times, it will be dry for several months. After getting used to living in such a place, Xu Cinian never knew that there would be such a beautiful small mountain town nearby.

The location of Qingyuan is very clever. It is just sandwiched between two mountains. Usually the air convection is not good, and all the water vapor is deposited here and cannot get out. Therefore, even in the late autumn, it is still warm and humid, with lush vegetation and small bridges and flowing water. It made Xu Ci Nian feel like he was in the south of the Yangtze River.

After spending more than 20 yuan and renting a three-wheeled scooter, he followed a local old farmer into the mountains.

Along the way, the two chatted, and the old farmer asked him with a strong accent with a smile, “Young man, you don’t look like a local, are you here to visit relatives?”

Xu Cinian shook his head with a smile, “I I’m here to look for treasure. I heard from my friends that you have a lot of Zheergen here, so I came to take a look.”

The old farmer was stunned for a moment, then turned around with a puzzled expression, “Zheergen? What are you looking for that weed for? There are so many on our side, how can it be considered a treasure.”

Xu Cinian’s eyes lit up, and he took out the picture on his mobile phone to show the old farmer, “Uncle, is this the weed you are talking about? Where is it? Can you take me to have a look?”

The old farmer wiped the sweat on his face and glanced at the picture, “Yes, that’s it.”

“This thing is very annoying, a little water can feed it, recently Chenjia Village wants to sow new seeds, but all the land is occupied by this thing, and several families have to transfer the land and go to the city to work and make money, which is really bad.”

Xu Cinian raised his eyebrows in surprise and couldn’t believe his ears. This Qingyuan is really a treasure of Feng Shui. Not only can you grow water-loving things like Houttuynia cordata in the north, it can even grow in the whole village. It’s all there, it’s simply nowhere to be found, and it takes no effort to get it.

“Uncle, do you know these farmers who want to transfer their land? Can you take me to meet them, I just want to buy a piece of land.

“I’ll help you find the buyer, and I’ll take you to find him!”

The old farmer laughed hard, pedaling hard, the tricycle moved quickly, and soon arrived at Chenjia Village.

Under his leadership, Xu Cinian went to the farmhouse that wanted to sell the land, but the owner was not at home. The old farmer had other things to do, so he left in a hurry. Wandering around, when passing a greenhouse, he saw a large area of ​​green seedlings, which happened to be the Zheergen he had been looking for.

He walked into the greenhouse in surprise, bent over with his mobile phone and took a few pictures.

When he took a photo, he wanted to pick a few plants and bring home to make cold dishes for Wowo. At this moment, someone suddenly shouted, “Hey! What are you doing, what are you doing here?”

Xu Cinian was frightened. After a jump, he looked back and saw a young man in a straw hat standing not far away, walking towards him with a hoe in his hand.

“Sorry, I didn’t mean to break in. I’m sorry, I’ll leave now.”

Xu Cinian touched his nose embarrassedly. Just now he was excited and forgot that it was someone’s private greenhouse. If you come in, you might be treated as a vegetable thief, and you can’t tell how polite you are.

He bowed apologetically, turned around and walked out of the shed, but the young man behind stared at him for a long time and then suddenly stopped him and ran over quickly, “Hey! Don’t go yet, wait a minute!”

Xu Cinian secretly thought that it was not good, this posture would not be a difficult master, right?

He turned his head daringly, and the young man ran to him, panting, and grabbed his wrist.

“You, you… Big Brother Xu! Are you Big Brother Xu?!”

Xu Cinian was stunned for a moment, stared at him and blinked, what’s the situation, he knows me?

The young man took off the straw hat on his head, pointed to his face, and said out of breath, “Brother Xu is me, Chen Jun! Xiaojun from the second district of Mengshan Prison, do you still remember me?”

Xu Cinian was stunned for a long time, staring at the mature man’s face in front of him, and finally remembered it thoroughly. This is Xiaojun, who was always abused by Fatty Wang in Mengshan Prison. He accompanied him for five years. “little follower”. “You…really Xiaojun? Oh my God, you’ve grown so big.”

Xiaojun’s eyes turned red with excitement, he hugged Xu Cinian, just like in the past, and he started to fall before he said a few words. Tears, “Yeah! It’s been two years. When you went to the third district and never came back, I thought you had an accident, but I didn’t expect to meet you here! How have you been in the past few years? Several brothers miss you very much.”

Xu Cinian never expected to see his old friend again, and was very excited.

The five years in Mengshan Prison were the darkest time in his life. At that time, he was alone and without support. It was Xiaojun who accompanies him to survive. Now, after two full years, they can meet again. Just a big surprise.

“I’m fine, and I’ve had a good life since I was released from prison. How about you? When did you get out of prison, and why are you in Qingyuan?”

Xiaojun wiped his tears and opened his mouth with a heartless smile. “I’m pretty good too. When I was halfway through college, I was in prison. I was twenty-three when I came out two years ago. No school wanted me. I’ll try my best to get into college in the future, anyway, I’ll never give up if I don’t go to college.”

“Good boy, have ambition, I’ll show your grandfather a doctor of agriculture in the future.”

Xu Cinian sighed and patted his Nodding on his shoulders, he was really happy for him. Back then, everyone was wronged and imprisoned. After five years in prison, it was a complete success to be able to live the life he wanted.

The two hadn’t seen each other for many years, and they met by chance in this unfamiliar place. Naturally, there were endless topics to talk about.

Xiaojun dragged Xu Cinian to dinner with him when he said anything. He excitedly helped him introduce Qingyuan’s customs and customs along the way. He finally patted his head and asked, “By the way, Brother Xu, I forgot to ask you just now, how are you doing? Thinking of running to Qingyuan? I remember you’re from City S.”

Xu Cinian picked a folded ear root and shook it in front of him, explaining his purpose with a smile.

Chen Jun’s mouth widened after hearing this, and it took a long time before he beat his chest and said, “Brother Xu, you should have said it earlier! My grandfather has been worried that the land cannot be sold for the past few days. As a result, a developer came to him the day before yesterday and said he wanted to I changed my land into a farmhouse resort, and I’m coming to inspect the situation today, so I went down to weed with a hoe.” “Your land has been sold?” Xu Cinian frowned slightly.

Chen Jun scratched his hair in distress, “Not yet, but I think it’s almost time. It is said that the developer has a lot of money and the price he offered is very high. Several families around us sold the land to him. It is estimated that grandpa will not refuse…”

Xu Cinian pursed his lips and did not speak for a long time, feeling a little uncomfortable in his heart.

Since he has decided to do one thing, he will definitely do his best to do it well, and he has even prepared the funds to buy the land, but suddenly encountering such a situation, maybe everything will be wiped out. He has no money and no backers, and he is poor and white. What can he use to compete with powerful developers?

If he was Xiaojun’s grandfather, would he be willing to sell the land to the high bidder?

“Brother Xu, don’t feel bad, I’ll make it clear to grandpa, you helped me so much in prison, it would be useless if I couldn’t keep a piece of land for you, don’t worry, I also own the land in my house. Part of it, if I don’t agree to sell it to others, my grandfather will have nothing to do with me.”

Xu Cinian shook his head and glared at him sternly, “Don’t talk nonsense, I didn’t want to help you back then, but I didn’t plan your home. If you really tell your grandfather like this, you shouldn’t the old man mad?”

“Then what should I do ? Ah… Big Brother Xu, I really want to help you…” Chen Jun lowered the corners of his mouth, his face dejected.

Xu Cinian didn’t speak, he pondered for a while and felt very unwilling. No matter whether raising Houttuynia cordata can be successful or not, he should at least try it first. If he is hit by external conditions before he starts to do it, then it will be a real failure.

Thinking of this, he took a deep breath, turned his head and said to Xiaojun, “Listen to eldest brother, don’t get involved in this matter, the developer is coming to your house to inspect today, right? I’ll go talk to him. If it succeeds It’s best, it doesn’t matter if it fails, anyway, I won’t starve to death if I buy less land.”

Speaking of which, he smiled freely, Chen Jun couldn’t help but nodded, thinking about how Xu Cinian is still so young after seven or eight years , his smile is a little more tender than his twenties.

***

A shirt with two buttons unbuttoned reveal a strong broad chest.

He rolled up his sleeves, picked up a stone and threw it into the hot spring next to him, splashing water with a thud, his eyebrows stretched, and he smiled, appearing to be in a good mood.

Next to him was an old man, with a lean body and kind eyes, he said with a smile, “Mr. Qu is still satisfied? It’s not my old man who said that in Qingyuan, only our Chenjia Village has a hot spring with living water, and the only spring is still above my house. , if you want to build a resort, you can decorate it here, and the grade will go up immediately.”

Qu Cheng chuckled, waved his hand and said, “This place is so beautiful, I can’t bear to build a large-scale construction, and now it looks very good in its original flavor, There’s no need to decorate those cheesy things.”

The old man smiled and lost his eyes, “Yeah, Mr. Qu has a good eye, I’ll take you to my fields later, where the scenery is even better.”

“No need for the old man, it’s enough to see this.”

Qu Cheng smiled, turned around and gave Ah Si a wink, and walked forward alone along the winding field road.

“Hey, Mr. Qu, don’t go yet…”

The old man didn’t know why, for fear that Qu Cheng didn’t like this place, so he would go up and persuade him, but Ah Si stopped him all of a sudden and took it out of his pocket with a smile. He put a check into his hand, “Old man, our boss is very satisfied with this place, you should take the deposit of 100,000 yuan first, and in a few days, I will come to you to formally sign the contract, and the price is 300,000 yuan. I’ll make up for you in full.”

The old man had never seen so many digits in his life, staring at the string of zeros on the check, his fingers trembled with excitement, and he shouted at Qu Cheng’s back, ” Mr. Qu, you are too polite! This…why is this money so much, I’m dizzy! Don’t leave at noon, come to my house for a meal! I will let my grandson slaughter live chickens for you!

“The shouting made Qu Cheng laugh, and the old man smiled and ran up to grab him and drag him home, not forgetting to introduce the beauty of Qingyuan.

Qu Cheng listened with the corners of his mouth hooked, and didn’t say much. In fact, even if there was no old man to introduce the situation here, he had already felt it clearly before he came.

Qingyuan is a place of picturesque beauty, one step at a farm, one step at a pond, green mountains and green waters and small bridges. It is like a fortress in the south of the Yangtze River. For the harsh climate of S City, it is a natural resort, even if the old man will not refuse no matter how high the price is, because he has long been determined to get it here.

Following Old Man Chen all the way back to the house, before entering the house from a distance, the old man couldn’t wait to shout, “Jun Er! Chen Jun! Come out, I bring a big noble back, you hurry up and sharpen the knife from our family. The stupid chicken is slaughtered!”

Hearing this name, Qu Cheng took a pause and coughed to hide his embarrassment.

Chen Jun or something, it’s really a fucking black history…

“Ah, Chen Jun is such a good name.” Ah Si pursed his lips and snickered, caught a glimpse of his gloomy eyes, and immediately shivered, looking up at the sky and pretending to be innocent.

The old man smiled and brought the two in. At this time, Chen Jun in the room was opening his mouth and eating a few Houttuynia cordata that Xu Cinian handed over.

The door opened, and the five looked at each other, dumbfounded for a moment.

The eyes of Qu Cheng and Xu Cinian met, and sparks blazed for a moment.

Xu Cinian: Damn, why you can run into him anywhere!

Qu Cheng: Damn, how dare you feed other men!

The atmosphere instantly became extremely embarrassing. Xu Cinian really didn’t expect to meet Qucheng in a backcountry like Qingyuan. He felt helpless for a while, he put down his chopsticks and stood up and said, “Xiaojun, it looks like you have a guest at your house, so I’ll go first. Don’t bother, let’s talk about our business later.”

He said hello to Mr. Chen, got up and was about to leave, Chen Jun held him down, “We haven’t seen each other for two years, you are my guest too. How can the invited guests just leave?”

“Grandpa, this is the elder brother Xu who took good care of me in prison. Didn’t you always say that you really want to see him? Now I brought him here.”

As soon as he said this, it didn’t matter, the face of Qu Cheng, who was standing beside him, immediately turned dark.

If he didn’t understand what was going on at this time, he would be a fool.

This brazen brat is called Chen Jun. Back then, Fatty Wang was Xu Cinian who used him to impersonate him. Damn, he must kill that damn fat man full of nonsense if he finds a chance!

On this day, old man Chen first met Qu Cheng, the big benefactor, and then met Xu Cinian, the big benefactor. He was happy to close his mouth, patted Xu Cinian on the shoulder, and said, “Oh, it’s so fateful. Ah, did you come here specifically to find Xiaojun?”

Xu Cinian glanced at Qu Cheng, smiled and shook his head, “I’m Xu Xinnian, who happened to meet, and I came here to buy land. I heard that you want to sell the land at home, I can’t help but be thick. The face is coming.”

As soon as these words came out, the old man was dumbfounded, “This… this can’t be done…”

“Why not?” Chen Jun glanced at Qu Cheng, and always felt that he looked at Xu Cinian with malicious intent. I didn’t like him immediately, “Grandpa, Big Brother Xu was my savior back then. If it wasn’t for him to go to the third district for me, I might not be able to save my life now. We owe people such a big debt to sell the land. What’s wrong with others? Don’t you think my life is worth less than a piece of land, Grandpa?”

Qu Cheng heard this, the corner of his mouth couldn’t help but hook up. The originally bad mood improved a lot in an instant. Xu Cinian was in love with the land of the old man Chen’s house, so wouldn’t that mean that he was directly planted in his hands?

He glanced at Xu Cinian playfully, licked his lips and made a biting motion. Xu Cinian’s ears turned red when he saw it, and he still has the rogue’s teeth marks on his butt!

Old man Chen scratched his hair, looked at Qu Cheng, and then looked at Xu Cinian. He was so embarrassed that he didn’t know what to do.

“Jun Er, it’s not that grandpa doesn’t want to repay others, it’s really that Mr. Qu has even paid the deposit. If you ask grandpa to sell the land to others, this… This is not justified.”

Xu Cinian heard two words “deposits” Cinian narrowed his eyes, held down Xiaojun who was still arguing, looked at Qu Cheng with a smile, and said, “Mr. Qu, are you sure to win this land?”

Qu Cheng smiled and made a pun, “I do care. It is always inevitable to win something, whether it is a person or a land.”

Xu Cinian pretended that he did not understand the deep meaning of his words, nodded and said, “Then can we talk about it?”

“Alone? No? It’s fine if I’m alone, I’m not interested.”

Qu Cheng grabbed his pocket and smiled, then turned to old man Chen and said, “Old man, have you thought about it, whether you want to repay the favor or the 300,000 yuan from me, and now I regret it. It’s still too late, but since you’ve received my deposit and you won’t give me the land, let’s meet in court.”

This sentence was purely to frighten the old man, and also to make Xu Cinian feel shriveled.

In fact, if Xu Cinian really wants this land, he can give it away for free. In order to make him happy, let alone 300,000 yuan, it is no problem to hand over the entire mansion, but when he entered the door just now, he told the man named Chen Jun. The tugging and tugging, at first glance, it is very related, and even knowing that he is in front of him, he is still sticky with Chen Jun, and he does not pay attention to him at all.

Let this peacock be proud of it for too long. If you don’t hold his wings and repair it, you really have to ride on his Qu Cheng’s head.

The old man had never been out of the mountains in his life, and he was so frightened by Qu Cheng’s words that his face changed. Xu Cinian didn’t want to embarrass the Chen family’s grandfather and grandson. He took a breath and looked at him and nodded, “Okay, just the two of us have a separate talk, you can choose the location, can you?”

Qu Cheng raised his eyebrows with a smile, “That’s what you said, don’t say I’m embarrasse you.”

Xu Cinian glanced at him, only to think that he laughed really badly. If there was no one around at this time, he would definitely pinch his face.

Make him laugh so hard!

“The same words are also given to you, Mr. Qu has agreed.”

The two of them ignored the obstruction of the Chen family’s grandfather and grandson, and left the Chen family together. No matter how Chen Jun sees Qucheng, he doesn’t seem like a good person, and he is afraid that Xu Cinnian will be punished. He was about to follow him in a hurry, but Ah Si stopped him all of a sudden and said lightly, “Don’t worry, they will be fine, if you follow Brother Cheng, you will be beat.”

Xu Cinian thought that Qu Cheng shameless trick is going to play, he has been vigilant, but when he arrived at the place, he was a little dumbfounded.

“Why did you bring me here?”

In front of you is a bubbling natural hot spring pool. The big one can’t see the head at a glance. The warm spring water meets the cold air and emits a white mist. Contrasted with the environment, it is particularly poetic.

Qu Cheng didn’t speak, he stretched out his hand and started to take off his clothes. When Xu Cinian turned around, his upper body was naked and he was starting to take off his pants.
