Quick Travel: Is it OK to recycle yourself?

Chapter 47 The Poor Innocent Death 31

"I understand, Fifth Auntie. You should go back and have your meal soon. I'll go down when you're free."

Fifth Aunt was an impatient person. She left in the same hurry as when she came without saying a few words.

After that, life became regular. Every day when she got up early and had nothing to do, Qu Nannan would go down to see how the project was progressing. Sometimes she would stay at the foot of the mountain to eat, but most of the time, Qu Nannan would come back to eat by herself.

The seedlings in the field grow quite fast. Although the cabbages and other vegetables are not big, they are edible. She also learned how to cook simple meals online. The results are not very good, but they are edible, although the appearance is a little worse.

Sometimes I would go down the mountain to sign for the express delivery. The days seemed to pass by very quickly, and the school seemed to be completed right before my eyes. This construction team is really versatile, and they can even help with the decoration inside.

At the end of the year, the construction team withdrew and all the buildings in Taoziwu were completed. In the early spring of next year, the children will be able to sit in the new classrooms to attend classes, and they no longer have to cross mountains and rivers to go to class before dawn.

Some older men in the village have also returned one after another. At their age, they have stronger feelings for their hometown than young people. There is hope in their hometown, so they don’t like to go out.

It is not easy to make money outside. Without education and being too old, they cannot get good jobs and can only do hard labor on construction sites. It is better if they meet a good employer, at least they can get a normal salary. If they meet a bad employer, it is good to get half of the salary after working for a year.

Young people who work away from home are still waiting and watching. If they can earn 2,000 to 3,000 yuan a month at home, those young and strong laborers will probably come back one after another.

"Nannan, Nannan."

When Qu Nannan heard the shouting, she put down the foreign language books in her hand. She was said to be serious about learning foreign languages. Since she came back, she would study for four to five hours every day. She would also find foreigners on the Internet to have online conversations and practice speaking.

"Brother Kangzi, why are you here? Is there something wrong? Come and sit down and have some tea."

Li Zikang waved his hand and refused: "I just wanted to come up and ask you, do you want to go and see the trees planted in the village?"

Qu Nannan's eyes lit up: "Are these the peach saplings you bought?"

After the hardware facilities in the village were completed, Li Ankang spent all day researching what else he could do to make money. The pond had been cleaned, and ornamental lotus and lotus roots had been planted, which could generate money when the harvest season came.

Each family has set up a small farm according to scientific breeding methods. Although there are not many livestock, they can all be used to exchange for money.

These are not enough to have long-term income, so he set his sights on the peach forest on the mountain. He remembered what Qu Nannan said about planting fruit trees all over the mountain, which could not only be exchanged for money but also become a tourist attraction to make money.

What to do if he has no money? He applied for a loan. The great changes in the village were visible to the leaders above. Being able to transform a well-known poor village was also an achievement, and the leaders were very supportive.

It can be said that Li Ankang's three years in college were not in vain. He got to know a lot of people, even the old professors from the Agricultural University. It is said that the fruit tree seedlings he got this time are all the latest varieties that have been researched and will bear fruit in just two to three years.

"Yes, I brought them here early this morning. The whole village followed us up the mountain today. I couldn't leave you behind, so I came here to call you."

"You are really something. It would be much quicker to just make a phone call, but you still have to make a trip yourself."

"Hehe, I'm so happy that I forgot about it. Are you going or not?"

"Go, you can leave soon. You asked, is it okay to plant fruit trees in this season?" But the Internet says that the best season to plant fruit trees is autumn, but it's winter now.

Although the winter here is warmer than the autumn in other places, they are still a little worried. These fruit trees are not cheap and it would be heartbreaking if they all died.

"I asked, the temperature here is not a big deal, and a few students came with us to help us learn about the things we need to pay attention to when planting. With professionals around, we can feel more at ease."

"That's good. It would be a shame if anything happened to so many saplings."

Li Ankang really didn't lie. Everyone in the village who could still work came out. There were quite a few people, young and old, men and women.

Qu Nannan looked at the number of fruit trees and said, "There are still not enough people. Haven't you hired some people to help?" The population of their village is still too small.

"I wanted to hire someone to help, but the villagers disagreed, saying that our own family is enough and they are used to doing the work. These fruit trees shouldn't be a big problem, but it will be a bit tiring."

"Okay, let's go along." This is because they are afraid of being poor and don't want to waste anything that can be saved.

Qu Nannan was not a squeamish person. She took the shovel and pickaxe and started digging the hole. Even though she hadn't gained much weight in half a year, she was very strong and moved quickly. It took two people to cooperate with her to keep up.

Although she was not afraid of working, her skin was not good enough. After finally planting all the fruit trees before dark, Qu Nannan's gloves were stuck to her palms when she returned home.

It really hurt, so she quickly found some medicine to treat external injuries and sprinkled it on the wound. The wound healed at a speed visible to the naked eye. She was the only one living here, otherwise wouldn't someone be scared to death seeing this scene?

Planting the fruit trees is not the end, it is just the beginning. Every day, people go up the mountain to observe the adaptation of the fruit trees, for fear that one day when they open their eyes, all the fruit trees will be dead. The village really cannot bear such a loss.

These fruit trees are taken care of more carefully than children at home. After a month, these fruit tree seedlings are still alive tenaciously. The men, women and children in the village can finally breathe a sigh of relief. As long as they observe these fruit trees more and take good care of them on a daily basis, all of them will survive without any accidents.

Qu Nannan plans her time very well every day, and now she has added another task - lesson preparation. Currently, primary school teachers have not been recruited yet, because this place is still too remote and many college graduates do not like to come to work in such a place after graduation.

In the absence of a teacher, Qu Nannan had to take care of it on her own. Fortunately, there weren't many children at the moment. If there were more children, she would definitely not be able to handle it alone.

In the early morning, the mist in the mountains is dense, and the sun is blocked by the mist, emitting a faint blush. Through this layer of veil-like fog, the entire Taoziwu looks as mysterious as a paradise, which makes people yearn for it.

Breathing the sweet air makes early risers feel good all day. A primary school consisting of two two-story buildings looks like a mirage in the mist. At first glance, you might think it is an illusion.
