Chapter 116 Dress up the mountain again (monthly pass) 50
00 words
At the gate of Yiling University, Cao Shujie helped his sister take out the suitcase, fruits brought from home, and braised cooked meat from the trunk, and asked his sister: "Do you still need me to bring it in for you again?"
"Brother, no need, I can carry it. You should go back quickly. If you can't carry 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, the roommates hadn't gotten up yet, and her brother couldn't go upstairs even if he followed her in.
Seeing her brother turning around to leave, Cao Huifang asked him again: "Brother, go back slowly. If you are sleepy, find a place to rest for a while before leaving."
"Okay, just leave me alone. If you need anything, call me. If you're short of money, let me know." As he spoke, Cao Shujie turned around, opened the car door and got into the driver's seat, started the car and left.
After Cao Huifang stood there and watched the car drive away, she hung all the other things on the suitcase trolley and dragged the suitcase towards her dormitory building.
She had made every effort, and it was less than two years before graduation. She originally thought she had plenty of time, but after experiencing a lot, she realized that there was really not much time left to strengthen her foundation, just like her brother said.
, going to work during the summer vacation is a bit putting the cart before the horse, you still have to study hard.
With the rising sun behind her back and looking at the short shadow cast on the ground, Cao Huifang told herself: "Come on, work hard!"
…
Cao Shujie drove back along the way he came. He drove for more than half an hour. When Cao Shujie saw a sign saying "Yingke Flowers" on the side of the road, he stepped on the brakes and slowed down. It was not in the way to pull over to the side of the road.
We parked the car, got out, and walked directly to a greenhouse next to it.
Walking up to the door, Cao Shujie was about to knock on the door when a dog barking of "woof, woof, woof" suddenly came from nearby.
Cao Shujie followed the sound and looked over. A yellow-haired native dog was tied to a tree not far away, barking at him.
"Shut up, I'll kill you if I yell again." Cao Shujie scolded it.
Maybe he often spends time with the four dogs at home. After training them for a long time, he is not that afraid of dogs. He overwhelms the other dogs with his aura. After another glare, the light yellow-haired native dog opposite him immediately shuts up.
He stopped barking, walked around in circles a few times, and then lay down on the ground. He looked up from time to time to look at Cao Shujie, and found that he had been staring at her and bending down to pick something up. The native dog turned around and turned his head back.
The butt is facing Cao Shujie, out of sight.
"Damn, you're so smart!" Cao Shujie was also surprised. Are all dogs now sperms?
At this time, a voice came from inside the greenhouse: "Don't bark, Dahuang."
"Who's out there? Is something wrong?"
"Boss, I'm buying flowers." Cao Shujie responded.
"Wait a moment, I'll be here soon."
Not long after, a middle-aged woman wearing a plaid apron and sweating on her forehead came out of the greenhouse.
When she saw Cao Shujie, she smiled and asked, "Little brother, were you the one who wanted to buy flowers just now?"
"Yes, eldest sister, what flowers do you have here?" Cao Shujie asked her.
The middle-aged woman did not ask Cao Shujie's name, but took him directly into the greenhouse and said: "I have many varieties here, including all kinds of flowers. Come and see for yourself first."
After entering, Cao Shujie immediately felt that the temperature inside the greenhouse was much higher than outside.
If the normal temperature outside at this point is 14 to 5 degrees Celsius, it is at least 10 degrees higher inside the greenhouse, and the humidity is very heavy. Combined with the high temperature, it feels like a sauna.
Cao Shujie stood there motionless, feeling like he was about to sweat.
However, the various flowers of different colors in the greenhouse or various green plants suitable for placement in the indoor environment instantly attracted Cao Shujie's attention.
"Sister, your place is so beautiful." Cao Shujie said sincerely.
The middle-aged woman smiled: "I have a wide range of flowers here, it mainly depends on what you want to plant."
This tone is very loud.
Cao Shujie asked her with a smile: "Sister, what is your surname?"
Who knew that this middle-aged woman didn't play by the rules? She said: "Hey, I just have to work. There's nothing expensive about it. My surname is Song. 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, from Cao Cao."
After the introduction, he continued: "It's like this. I contracted a piece of mountainous land to plant fruit trees and are picking them. However, there are very few things to see in the mountainous area I contracted. The whole area is too monotonous. I thought
Add a variety of different varieties of flowers to enrich it and make it look more beautiful, so that customers who come to pick it will feel that their trip is worthwhile."
After listening to what Cao Shujie said, Song Shuli suddenly felt interesting. She looked at Cao Shujie carefully. He was a very young man with a face that was almost the shape of a Chinese character. His nose was very high and straight. If you look closely, you would find a small black spot on his chin.
I can't tell if it's a mole or something else.
He has broad lips, thick eyebrows, and a straight face.
"Brother Cao, where did you contract the mountainous land?" Song Shuli asked.
This matter is very important.
There are huge temperature differences across the country, and some flowers are only suitable for planting in special temperature ranges. They may not survive if they are too cold or too hot.
Song Shuli heard that Cao Shujie had a foreign accent when he spoke, and she was a little unsure of where he was from.
"Sister Song, I am from Yiling City. I contracted the mountainous land in Qingshi Town, Pingyuan County. Do you know where it is?" Cao Shujie tried his best to be as detailed as possible.
Hearing him talk about this place, Song Shuli looked familiar: "So you are from Qingshi Town, Pingyuan County. My partner's home 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 that's the case, I suggest you plant tree-like lavender, hydrangeas, peonies, clematis, roses, and clematis. These varieties will work. It doesn't matter in summer, but they are cold-resistant in winter."
"Other flowers are fine if they are grown indoors or in a place with a small temperature difference, but it is useless for us to plant them outdoors." Song Shuli is very practical.
She didn't try to fool Cao Shujie just because he didn't know this knowledge, but actually told him about it.
After hearing this, Cao Shujie asked: "Do you have all the things Sister Song just said here?"
"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-like lavender. I have to buy the rest on the spot."
As she spoke, she led Cao Shujie along the path inside the greenhouse and came to a separate area. She pointed at the pink blooming rose inside and said, "Brother Cao, this is the rose. You know this, right?"
.”
Cao Shujie looked at the flower plant, which was almost 1 meter tall, with dozens of blooming flowers hanging on it. He nodded: "I know."
"This variety is very good, easy to take care of, blooms beautifully, and has a long flowering period."
"In addition, the longer you plant, the taller the flower plants will grow and the more flowers will bloom."
Cao Shujie nodded and asked, "Sister Song, is there anything else?"
"Yes, come with me." Song Shuli continued to lead Cao Shujie inside, looking at peonies and tree-like lavender on the way.
But it is a pity that now is not the time for peonies and tree-like lavender to bloom, and Cao Shujie was not able to see them in full bloom.
He thought for a moment and asked, "Sister Song, can you help me get three other kinds of flowers? Get more."
"How much do you need specifically?" Song Shuli asked him.
If you don’t understand this data, the rest will not be easy to match.
Cao Shujie told her: "I have contracted a total of 85 acres of mountainous land. The areas around the mountainous land I contracted are basically bare, with only a small number of wild flowers. It is not very beautiful and not coordinated enough."
Song Shuli understood this time, and she asked in surprise: "Does Brother Cao mean to plant flowers all around?"
"Have you thought about this? If you plant all of them, the cost will be quite high." Song Shuli specially emphasized this point to him.
She also said: "I thought your place wasn't very big, so it wouldn't matter if you planted a few plants to watch and play with, but if you plant a lot, this thing won't produce direct benefits."
After Cao Shujie listened to Song Shuli's words, he nodded gently: "Sister Song, what you just said, if I want more, you can see the maximum discount I can get. If the discount is large, I won't go to other people to see it.
Already."
At least he didn't say "money is not an issue" in a pretentious manner.
"Do you want all the six kinds of flowers I just mentioned?" Song Shuli asked him.
Cao Shujie nodded: "If you can get them all, just get some of them and mix them with each other to avoid being too monotonous."
"Then I suggest you don't just plant flowers, but also plant some holly, Sophora japonica, Dieffenbachia and the like. They look better together." Song Shuli emphasized: "It also saves you from winter, when other flowers have lost all their leaves, and you can still see them.
It’s a bit green, you’re right.”
This was the truth, and Cao Shujie had no objection.
He said: "Anything is fine."
"You also need someone to plant flowers, right?" Song Shuli asked him.
Seeing Cao Shujie nodding, she said: "In this case, let's leave a phone number first. After I ask other people to find out, I will call you and make a quotation. Brother Cao, you can take a look at that time. If it is suitable, we will
How about we talk about the rest?"
Cao Shujie nodded and agreed. This was very reliable.
Song Shuli called Cao Shujie's phone number based on what he said. The two exchanged names and said, "I will call you as soon as the results come out."
"Sister Song, how many days will it take to get the results?" Cao Shujie asked habitually.
"Tomorrow at the latest." Song Shuli said.
After Cao Shujie left Song Shuli, he continued driving towards Caojiazhuang.
I just saw this 'Keying Flower' on the way to send his sister here. I thought the mountain was too monotonous now, so I originally planned to plant some different varieties of flowers to make it look more beautiful.
"By the way, I don't know if the lawn mower that Boss Zhao helped me contact has any results?" Cao Shujie thought of another thing.
When he drove by Qingshi Town, he went directly to boss Zhao Wenyang's shop without making a phone call.
When I passed by, I saw that the store was open and Boss Zhao was walking around in the store.
After stopping the car, Cao Shujie opened the door and walked towards the store: "Boss Zhao, I'm busy."
His tone was like greeting an old friend.
When Zhao Wenyang saw it was him, he exclaimed: "Boss Cao, why are you here? I was just thinking about calling you to say something!"
"I happened to go to the city for some personal business. When I passed by, I came over to ask you if the lawn mower is there?" Cao Shujie asked him.
"Yes, I'm about to call you too!" Zhao Wenyang said.
As for what Zhao Wenyang said, Cao Shujie believed him at most.
But then he saw Zhao Wenyang open the computer and find a folder. After opening it, he called Cao Shujie over: "Boss Cao, can you take a look at this?"
"Is this a lawn mower?" Cao Shujie saw in the photo a tracked mechanical vehicle similar to a small bulldozer.
He felt that this thing was much more pleasing to the eye than the handheld ones Zhao Wenyang showed him before.
"Yes, this is a lawn mower. The price is much more expensive than a handheld one. Generally no one here buys this kind of lawnmower, so I haven't purchased it. But if Boss Cao wants it, I will contact you." Zhao Wenyang said.
.
"This one costs less than 20,000 yuan. If Boss Cao is sure he wants it, I will try to keep the price as low as possible."
"Okay, get two." Cao Shujie nodded, the price is not expensive.
The two had communicated verbally, and Zhao Wenyang started to call and contact Cao Shujie in front of him. Finally, after some bargaining, the freight for two crawler lawn mowers was included, for a total of 30,800 yuan.
"Boss Cao, please leave a small deposit. I will contact you after these two lawn mowers are shipped," Cao Shujie said.
Cao Shujie knew that this was a normal process, so he simply left two thousand yuan to Zhao Wenyang, and both parties initialed an agreement.
He also specifically stated in the agreement that if Cao Shujie regrets midway and does not want these two devices, the deposit of 2,000 yuan will not be refunded.
After all, Zhao Wenyang also bears risks.
After having breakfast in the town, Cao Shujie returned to Caojiazhuang.
After parking the car, Cao Shujie walked towards his home when he happened to see his wife hand-washing Mengmeng's clothes in the yard, while Mengmeng was playing with two German shepherds nearby.
The little wild cat Huahua was still standing on the roof, glancing down from time to time. The cat bowed its waist, looking like it was ready to attack at any time.
Seeing Cao Shujie come in, Mengmeng immediately dropped the German Shepherd and ran towards him: "Dad, is there anything delicious?"
Cao Shujie looked confused. He looked at his wife and didn't understand what was going on.
Cheng Xiaolin said: "You left just now. Mengmeng had to look for you. I told her to go buy her delicious food."
"Then why don't you give me a call and let me know, so I can make preparations." Cao Shujie muttered to his wife.
Then he picked up Mengmeng, pinched her armpits with both hands, and spun her around in the air. Listening to Mengmeng's giggle, he quickly said: "Mengmeng is so smart, how did you guess that daddy gave her
Have you bought anything?"
"Really? Where is it? Please let me know." The smile on Mengmeng's face became even bigger.
She couldn't wait to take a look.
Cao Shujie carried her into the house: "Dad, we can't let others see it. If I try to snatch it from you, I'll have already hidden it in the house."
"I don't believe it! Dad lied to me!" Mengmeng looked at Cao Shujie with disgust.
She is too cute to be fooled by such childish tactics.
But Cao Shujie said: "Really, if you don't believe it, I will take you to find it."
Children are just children, they use tricks and tricks, and they are several levels different from adults.
When Cao Shujie handed two pieces of meat floss and an individually wrapped egg roll to Mengmeng, she forgot about anything else and stared at the meat floss and egg rolls, asking her father to quickly open them for her.
"Dad, open it for me quickly, I want to eat." Mengmeng said.
"Why are you in a hurry? I'll get it done for you right now." Cao Shujie said.
I bought these at the Yiling City Department Store last time. Unfortunately, Mengmeng didn't remember anything. She had forgotten to buy these things, otherwise it would be really difficult to fool them today.
Cheng Xiaolin, who was washing clothes outside, couldn't help but laugh when she heard the voices of the father and daughter.
While I was washing my clothes, I suddenly remembered something: "Shujie, brother Min came to see you just now and asked you to check out the decoration when you come back."
"Why didn't you go see it?" Cao Shujie wondered.
Cheng Xiaolin said: "I'm waiting for you to go together. If something doesn't work, we can discuss changes."
"Okay, let's go now?"
"You are blind and didn't see me washing clothes. Can't you wait until I finish washing?" Cheng Xiaolin said.
Cao Shujie laughed and said nothing else.
He played with his daughter for 20 minutes. Cheng Xiaolin washed the clothes and hung them to dry. Cao Shujie took the dog and Cheng Xiaolin held Mengmeng in her arms and walked to the new house.
It has been more than a month since the renovation of the house started in early August. Except for the carpentry work, everything else has been basically completed. Cao Tieming is now leading people to deal with some details.
Seeing Cao Shujie and his wife coming over, Cao Tiemin took them to look at the upper and lower floors together.
I also asked Cao Shujie and Cheng Xiaolin if they had any other opinions. If they had no objections, they would continue with the carpentry work.
"I think it's okay. It's pretty. What do you think, wife?" Cao Shujie asked his wife.
After reading it, Cheng Xiaolin said: "Okay, I don't have any objections."
"That's it, let it dry for a few days, and then I'll do the rest of the work." Cao Tiemin said.
"Yeah, okay!" Cao Shujie nodded in agreement.
Cheng Xiaolin asked: "Brother Min, can it be finished this month?"
"Okay, let it dry for three months after it's finished, and you can move here before the Spring Festival." Cao Tiemin said.
Cheng Xiaolin was very happy to hear what he said. She nodded repeatedly and asked, "Shujie, let's go choose furniture and home appliances in a few days."
"That's okay. I don't have anything else to do anyway. I'll choose the furniture and appliances in advance and move them over directly after the decoration is completed." Cao Shujie said.
After finishing the cleaning, he moved in early to avoid having to turn on the air conditioner for heating in winter. The wind blowing out was too dry, which he was not used to.
After deciding on this matter, Cao Tiemin chatted with them and then went upstairs to supervise and watch other people working.
He was very concerned about the decoration of Fa Xiao's house.
