Chapter 1042: Wilderness

In the vast wilderness, there is no one as far as the eye can see.

Xia Jian and Chen Xiaolan brushed aside the wild grass in front of them and walked down the mountain step by step. Chen Xiaolan glanced back at Xia Jian and said, "There are still dozens of acres of wasteland at the foot of this mountain that belong to our Shuijing Village."

Xia Jian looked at the thorns on the hillside and said, "If you want to develop here, you really have to put in some hard work, first of all, you must build roads, and then you can develop all the barren slopes." I wonder if you're ready for this? ”

"Village Chief Chen has already held a mobilization meeting, and everyone's enthusiasm is very high. Anyway, there are hundreds of people in the entire Shuijing Village, and if all of them are dispatched, the problem should not be very big" As soon as Chen Xiaolan finished speaking, a wild boar came out of the grass, this guy had a green mouth and fangs, and his appearance was extremely terrifying.

At this time, women are generally frightened, and without waiting for Xia Jian to make a move, Chen Xiaolan rushed over in one step and got into Xia Jian's arms. Xia Jian hugged her and rolled around. The two men rolled down on the long grass.

Maybe someone scared the wild boar, and when this guy scurried, there was no shadow. Chen Xiaolan hugged Xia Jian tightly and refused to let go. The two of them were lying in the long artemisia grass, and they could only see the blue sky. This is really a quilt and a bed, and Xia Jian pressed it as soon as he turned over.

Chen Xiaolan struggled gently, and the two hugged each other tighter and tighter. As the artemisia grass swayed, there was a slight gasping sound of men and women. This kind of scene sounds really heart-pounding.

Lin Wei, who returned to the car, was so tired and out of breath that Guo Meili smiled and said: "Miss Lin, do things with our President Xia, but if you can be literate and martial, I will only sit in the office, so I feel that I am lagging behind her."

"Thank you Mr. Guo for the reminder, I will exercise hard next" Lin Wei said, and sat in the back seat, she secretly took off her shoes and took a look, only to see that two blood blisters had been ground out on the toes, no wonder it hurts.

Guo Meili looked from afar, she was watching Xia Jian and Chen Xiaolan come back, but she looked at it for a long time, but she still didn't see it. Didn't she know that at this time, Xia Jian and Chen Xiaolan were doing beautiful things in the artemisia grass.

It wasn't until the sun was about to set that Xia Jian and Chen Xiaolan walked back. Guo Meili looked at it and said to Xia Jian a little anxiously: "What are you doing, why is it so long, we are all in a hurry"

As soon as Guo Meili spoke, she knew that she might have said the wrong thing, but Xia Jian was calm, and he let out a sigh of relief and said: "There are dozens of acres of wasteland at the foot of the mountain, all of which are flat, and there is a small river at the foot of the mountain. There is no road, you have to climb up from the artemisia grass and thorns, do you say you can be fast? ”

Women are women after all, Guo Meili asked, but Chen Xiaolan lowered her head uncomfortably, and her face was slightly red. This scene can't escape Guo Meimei's eyes.

Fortunately, Guo Meili didn't care, so the big car got into the car, and when the car arrived at Chen Xiaolan's door, Guo Meili stopped the car and let Chen Xiaolan get out of the car.

"Mr. Xia! You went to see it today, and you didn't give me a statement, can you do this? You have to give me a word" Chen Xiaolan stood at the door of the car, unwilling to leave, she was waiting for Xia Jian's reply.

Xia Jian thought for a while and said, "That's it!" You discuss with Village Chief Chen, if the road can be repaired, and then the wasteland can be cleared, we will do it."

"Good! It's okay to have your words," Chen Xiaolan finished speaking, and quickly disappeared into the night.

Guo Meili said with a smile while driving the car: "The whole barren water is a place, not only to build roads, but also to open up wasteland, this is a big project!" ”

"It depends on the attitude of the people of Shuijing Village, if they can really develop this barren mountain for me, we will cooperate with them, maybe it will be a big business opportunity" Xia Jian didn't have the slightest confidence when he said this, because when he saw the actual situation today, his heart still shrank.

Guo Meili couldn't help but ask again: "Is it better to invest in planting apples?" How do I feel a little unreliable"

"Nope! Planting peppercorns," Xia Jian said very simply.

Guo Meili smiled and said, "Why didn't I think of this?" I don't think it's okay to grow apples, but it's different to grow peppercorns, because the upfront investment of peppercorns is relatively small. It's not very heavy, but the purchase price from other places is not low, which is a good way."

Lin Wei sat in the back row and listened to the conversation between Xia Jian and Guo Meimei, she was still blank about this part, she had to study hard, otherwise it would be really difficult to work beside Xia Jian.

While speaking, the car had arrived at the entrance of Xiping Village, Guo Meili stopped the car and asked, "Mr. Xia!" Are you going home, or are you going to the city? ”

"Let's go back to the city! There are too many things, I'll come back when I'm done," Xia Jian said in a low voice.

Guo Meili nodded, and drove directly back to Pingdu. On the side of the road, the three of them found a random restaurant. Xia Jian glanced at Lin Wei, who was full of tiredness, and said with a smile, "How is it?" Isn't it a bit unaccustomed? ”

"It's just a little tired, maybe it's because I haven't driven for a long time, I think I'll get used to it quickly," Lin Wei said embarrassedly.

Guo Meili hurriedly smiled and said: "What's this, just go out a few more times in the future and exercise." When Xi Zhen first arrived here, she didn't get used to it, but she stayed for a while, and she didn't want to go back to Pingdu."

Lin Wei nodded and glanced at Xia Jian secretly. Xia Jian responded and said, "Hmm! Your problem now is a physical problem, you have to get up early every day and exercise hard."

While the three of them were talking, the food had been served, probably because they were hungry, and everyone was very energetic. Xia Jian felt that Lin Wei's appetite had also increased a lot.

When she went back after eating, Guo Meili arranged Lin Wei to sleep in Xi Zhen's room, but she kept chatting with Xia Jian, until after eleven o'clock, she turned off the lights and went into Xia Jian's house.

For the newcomer Lin Wei, she didn't know anything at all. The next morning, before dawn, Guo Meili sneaked back to her room again.

While eating breakfast, Xia Jian glanced at Lin Wei and asked with a smile, "How is it?" Isn't it a little better? “

"Much better, more energetic. Because I haven't driven for such a long time, I'm a little nervous, so I can't concentrate too much," Lin Wei said, smiling secretly.

Guo Meili came down a little late, and Xia Jian naturally knew the reason why she came down late. But Lin Wei, who was in the dark, asked Guo Meili with a smile: "Mr. Guo! Didn't you sleep well last night? “

"Hmm!" Guo Meili replied nonsense, then lowered her head and began to eat breakfast. Xia Jianle was in his heart, but he pretended to be casual on the surface.

As soon as they returned to Donglin Building, several people were busy. Lin Wei is a novice, and many things need to start from scratch for her, but fortunately, Guo Meili sent someone who is familiar with the business to take her seriously.

After Xia Jian sat in his office and dealt with some documents on the papers, he began to think about the affairs of Shuijing Village, because he could see from Chen Xiaolan's expression that this woman really wanted to do something big in Shuijing Village, just like she said, she wanted to become the second Zhao Hong.

If that's the case, then he has to contact the pepper seedlings quickly, as soon as he thought of this, he made a few calls, but this thing is only available in the northwest and southwest, and it can't be found in other places.

There was no way, Xia Jian called Wang Lin and asked her to contact the pepper seedlings suitable for planting in the northwest, not only the varieties are good, but also the supply is in the regular channel, so that the peppercorns that grow will be guaranteed.

When he had just finished dealing with this matter, he received a call from Ouyang Hong, who asked a little unhappily on the phone: "When did you come to Pingdu?" ”

"I arrived yesterday, what's wrong? What's the urgency? Xia Jian asked knowingly.

When Ouyang Hong heard this, he said a little angrily: "What do you mean?" I don't say a word when I come, let me ask you, is it so easy for you to be the honorary mayor? ”

"Oops! Don't say that yet, I went to Shuijing Village as soon as I arrived yesterday, and I didn't come back until the evening," Xia Jian told Ouyang Hong about his hard work on the phone.

Ouyang Hong smiled and asked on the phone, "Have you gone to Shuijing Village?" Shouldn't it be a big girl or a little daughter-in-law again? I can tell you, you're a merryman, but you can't mess around in the village, it's a matter of reputation."

"Oops! Where do you think of it" Xia Jian said on his lips, in fact, he was still quite surprised in his heart, how did you say that these women's sixth senses were so powerful.

Ouyang Hong then sighed on the phone and said, "I'm a bit redundant to say this, what do you like, then tell me, are you going to do something in Shuijing Village?" ”

"Hmmm! You guessed this correctly, there is a barren mountain in Shuijing Village, where the land was all cultivated land, and now it is barren, I visited it yesterday, which land is really good, suitable for planting pepper, and the area is not small, if this place can be developed, the well can be lifted out of poverty in three to five years" Xia Jian said confidently on the phone.

When Ouyang Hong heard this, she immediately became interested, and she hurriedly said: "Don't talk about it, let's go to Pingyang Town in a while, because there are many things in the town waiting for us to study together, and then you can talk about this Shuijing Village."

"Go now! It's almost time to eat," Xia Jian said, glancing at his watch.

Ouyang Hong raised her voice on the phone and said: "I know how to eat, when I think of Donglin Township, I can't sleep, what kind of days do you say we live every day, what about them?" Others don't know, you should know, so today's lunch at noon, let's eat in Pingyang Town, and it should always be okay to eat a bowl of noodles! After Ouyang Hong finished speaking, he hung up the phone without waiting for Xia Jian to speak.

Hey! This Ouyang Hong also tied the happiness of the people of Pingdu with him, you are the mayor, I am just a grass farmer in Pingdu, and at best I am a worker. Xia Jian thought so in his heart and couldn't help laughing.

At this time, Guo Meili walked in, and when she saw Xia Jian's appearance, she asked with a smile, "What makes you so happy?" ”

"Ouyang Hong's phone call came, complaining that I, the honorary mayor, was incompetent, now let's go to Pingyang Town, and talk about the matter of Qingshan County another day!" Xia Jian said, shaking his head helplessly.
