Back at the gas station, Chen Mu greeted a young man in the business room, "Yalikun, stop watching TV, come out for a while, I'll ask you something."

"Come on, Brother Xiaomu."

The young man quickly trotted out, moving quickly, like a monkey.

Chen Mu pointed to the saplings next to the gas station and asked, "When the forestry company delivered the goods, have you counted them? Is the number right?"

The young man replied: "When they sent it over, I ordered it roughly, and there was no big difference. Later, after they left, I ordered it carefully, and the number was exactly the same as the one on the list."

“Good job!”

Chen Mu was relieved and asked again: "Is the camel here? Have you given it milk?"

The young man replied again: "I have been here twice, but every time I want to feed it, it has left, so I haven't fed it."

"That's how..."

Chen Mu frowned. It seemed that Hu Xiaoer really recognized people. He didn't drink anybody's breastfeeding. If he had to go out to do things in the future, he had to think carefully about what to do.

When the young man saw Chen Mu not speaking, he said again: "Brother Xiao Mu, after the saplings were transported, I saw that there were no guests at the gas station, so I went to plant the trees for a while, not far from what you planted."

Chen Mu took a look and couldn't see clearly in the night, but there were indeed more trees in his forest farm.

"Thank you, Alexun, you did a great job."

Chen Mu had to express his appreciation to the employees who worked consciously. He took out fifty dollars and handed them to the boy, saying, "This is your salary."

Then, he drew another twenty more and handed it to the boy: "This is your bonus, because you really helped me a lot this time."

The young man was very happy. He took the money and folded it carefully and stuffed it into his pocket: "Thank you, Brother Xiao Mu."

Chen Mu patted the boy's head: "Go away quickly, well, it's already dark. If you don't want to go back, you can stay here for one night and leave tomorrow."

"No, I'm going back. Mom is waiting for me at home, and now I can still see the road!"

The young man's tone was very firm, but he did not leave immediately, but looked at Chen Mu, wanting to speak but stopping.

Chen Mu asked curiously: "Why, there is something to tell me?"

The young man hesitated for a moment and said, "Brother Xiao Mu, can I come to your work every day in the future?"

Chen Mu looked at the young man and didn't speak immediately.

The young man is named Yalikun, who is just fourteen years old.

His mother was a Uyghur woman with a congenital intellectual disability. When she was young, her family couldn't take care of her for a while and didn't know which man she had sex with, so she got pregnant and gave birth to him.

In such a family, life is undoubtedly difficult, especially after the death of my grandfather and grandmother, the life of the mother and son is even more difficult.

Although Alexun is young, he has to wander around, looking for job opportunities and supporting his family.

When Chen's father and mother were alive, they often helped Yalikun and asked him to go to the gas station to help, and they were considered temporary workers.

This time, Chen Mu and the Uyghur seniors were going to take tourists into the village, but they couldn't take care of the gas station, so the Uyghur seniors called Yalikun over again.

When Yalikun saw Chen Mu not speaking, he thought he was unwilling to do so, he quickly patted his chest and promised: "Brother Xiao Mu, although I am young, I have the strength to work. As long as you are willing to let me work, I will definitely work hard and won't be lazy."

Chen Mu asked, "Then won't go to school in the future?"

"No more, no money."

Alexun's reasons are very good and powerful.

Chen Mu thought about it and nodded: "Okay!"

Yalikun was surprised and happy. Unexpectedly, Chen Mu agreed so readily, and quickly asked tentatively: "From tomorrow?"

"Well, start tomorrow!"

"That's great, thank you, Brother Xiaomu."

Alexun almost jumped up with joy.

Chen Mu waved his hand: "Go away quickly, go away quickly, it's too late, be careful."

Yalikun agreed, trotted and left.

Chen Mu stood there and looked at the young man's back as he walked away, feeling a little regretful.

Although Yalikun's mother was incomplete in intelligence, Yalikun was very smart and clever. I heard that her academic performance in school has always been good. It is a pity that such a good seedling dropped out of school halfway.

However, Chen Mu couldn't say anything like urging the other party to continue to go to school. He felt that at this moment, it was the most important thing to provide young people with a way to live well. As long as they survive, everything would be hopeful.

Besides, the gas station does need to add people because his stall is getting bigger.

I won’t talk about the matter of planning to travel, because I don’t know if it will be successful or how it will be. I just talk about planting trees. It’s too tiring to work alone. It’s faster to hire more little guys to help.

Chen Mu actually had already thought about it. If he could make money from tourism in the future, he would invest more in the great cause of planting trees and would invite more people at that time, so he would call in Yalikun as a pre-count.

"Well, I have to think about how I advertise travel online."

After Chen Mu entered the business room, he closed the door and began to think about it.

These days, he accompanied Cheng Zijun and the other two around the two villages. He also took many photos himself, all of which were accumulated to use as creative materials.

Lying on the bed and flipping through the photos, he quickly selected more than ten and prepared to send them online to try it out.

However, when it comes to online, Chen Mu looked at the phone without any signal and could only throw it away and go to bed.

The next day, before dawn, Alexun arrived.

Chen Mu rubbed his eyes and opened the door. Looking at the Uyghur boy with dark circles on his eyes, he couldn't help but say angrily: "Why did you come so early? I was awakened by you. Tsk tsk, if you do this, people thought I was a bad-hearted boss who exploited you as a child laborer."

"No, I just feel so happy that I can't sleep."

After Yalikun entered the door, he pushed Chen Mu to the residential area behind and said attentively: "Brother Xiao Mu, you can continue to sleep, I can watch here."

Chen Mu really wanted to continue to take a break from sleep. After thinking about it, he said, "I'll look for you. If you bring your own key, I won't open the door for you."

"Do you want to give me the key to the gas station?"

Yalikun showed a flattering look, revealing a pair of neat but slightly yellowed teeth.

What a great excitement, isn’t it just a key?

Chen Mu didn't want to pay attention to the child, so he turned around and continued to sleep again.

After sleeping for more than an hour this time, Yalikun rushed into the bedroom and called him: "Brother Xiaomu, Brother Xiaomu, wake up."

Chen Mu was interrupted repeatedly and had a good dream. He just kissed him just one mouthful. He couldn't help but say angrily: "What's the matter? I won't tell you clearly today."

Yalikun quickly replied: "Brother Xiaomu, Camel is here again."

"oh?!"

Chen Mu woke up all at once, got up and ran outside the door. Sure enough, he saw Hu Xiaoer's solo figure.

I haven't seen each other for a few days, and this guy has become dirty again.

The previously washed fur was once again covered with soil.

The white turned into earth-gray, and it was no longer visible that it was a white camel.

Chen Mu thought about it and it seemed that this was fine. It was too eye-catching if it was whitewashed. If it was dirty, it would be low-key and connotational, and he would not be afraid of being recognized.

As soon as he appeared, Hu Xiaoer immediately took the initiative to come over, but when he saw Yalikun behind him, it stopped again, stammered and did not get close to him.

Chen Mu brought a big bowl and milk and said, "Come on, drink milk first, let's talk about it in detail."

After the milk was poured, Hu Xiaoer lowered his head and started drinking it.

Chen Mu pulled Yalikun to his side and introduced: "This is a small employee of our gas station. If my brother goes out in the future, he will be responsible for feeding you. Just drink it. Don't be shy. I know that your skin is not that thin."

When Yalikun heard the word "little employee", he immediately raised his chest and his sense of identity and belonging to his unit was directly exaggerated.

Hu Xiaoer didn't know if he understood it. He didn't even raise his head when he was drinking milk. After finishing drinking, he raised his head and showed a thrilling smile.

At noon, the Uyghur old man who had been taking a half-day vacation came back on a donkey. Chen Mu threw the gas station to the elderly to take care of, and he led Yalikun to the forest farm to continue the great cause of planting trees.

It has been three days since I bought the seedlings. If I don’t plant them, I will be empty for too long.

Especially in such a dry and hot weather, the seedlings can easily die under the sun, so they have to be planted all of them as soon as possible.

The speed of two people working together was more than twice as fast.

One person moves the seedlings, one person digs a hole, and after digging the hole, put the seedlings in, then fill the soil and water it.

At the beginning, the two of them cooperated a little unfamiliarly, but the more they cooperated, the more tacit they understood. At the end, it would take only one or two minutes to plant a tree. Not only was it fast, but it was not tired.

The two of them worked until the evening. The 1,000 newly sent saplings had been planted by them. The rest could be planted in half a day tomorrow.

Seeing the new seedlings, the greening area of ​​the forest farm nearly doubled, Chen Changchang felt extremely relieved and extremely happy.

He had already begun to think that he could go to the forestry company in Bahe Town after getting the rest tomorrow... Well, he just ordered the order regularly in the future, and asked them to send the saplings to pay later, so as to save the loss of running to the town over and over again and wasting time.

When Chen Changchang was planting trees today, Hu Xiaoer stayed in the forest farm. When it was night, it left after drinking milk.

This made President Chen realize that Hu Xiaoer seemed to be really close to him. Only when he was there would he come to the gas station, otherwise he would run to somewhere to hide.

"It seems that we two are really destined to be together!"

Just as Chen Chen was expressing such emotion, a blog post called "I'll walk back to the desert" appeared in a blog called "Simple Girl".
