The other people in the village moved to Dongyang one after another, where they were allocated houses built in advance for the large-scale integration, and vegetable plots were also allocated.
The compensation has arrived in succession, it’s a lot, and everyone is very satisfied.
Grandma Liu's family was the only one left in the village. Xu Qingzhi talked to the design staff and decided to divert the road to bypass that area.
When other neighboring villages heard that Taoshui Village was relocating, they would not only be able to move to Dongyang and get houses and land, but would also receive compensation, so they all asked if they could move there as well.
As for the place next to Taoshui Village, Mr. Mo bought it because he thought the price was not high.
There were few people in the village to begin with, and as villagers moved away one after another, the village became even quieter.
Now, except for the hill where the original farm was located, she can plan out the other hills as long as she wants to.
Xu Qingzhi is also willing to spend more time thinking about where he will live in the future.
There is a turtle-shaped hill in the village, not too high, separated from the farm behind by a road. She plans to expand the farm there.
A little further away, about three or four minutes away, is the tallest mountain in the village.
The villagers living on that hill have already signed their agreement to move away.
When he was in elementary school, his teacher once organized an outing to climb this mountain. Xu Qingzhi had some impression of it.
There is a pavilion on the top of the mountain. I don’t know whether it was built in the Qing Dynasty or some other dynasty.
When climbing the mountain, there are natural mountain streams that flow out from the gullies and rocks and flow down with the drop of the mountain.
The stream water eventually flows into an unnamed river that is neither wide nor narrow.
An ancient stone bridge spans the river, connecting the two mountains. If you continue climbing, you will reach the highest peak.
You can see the most beautiful sunrise and sunset there.
After many years, Xu Qingzhi climbed up the mountain again to take a look. He planned to preserve the mountain as it was to the greatest extent possible, rebuild some basic gravel roads, and build gravel steps in the landslide areas that were difficult to climb.
The several houses above were preserved and reinforced and converted into rooms similar to those in B&Bs.
Several new log-style houses were built at the highest place where you can watch the most beautiful sunset.
There should be a large floor-to-ceiling window so that you can watch the sunset while lying in bed.
The windows open outwards from both sides, allowing ventilation from north to south.
If you want to climb mountains, you can come here.
As for the resting pavilion on the way, she only reinforced it to prevent it from collapsing. She didn't restore it with new colors, because she always felt that sometimes fresh colors were far less interesting than the traces left by time.
The paddy fields and the crops in the fields will still belong to the previous villagers this year, but Xu Qingzhi will make a unified plan for the planting next year.
Except for building land and landscape design, all other places can be considered as farm land.
When recruiting people from outside, they will give priority to the original villagers. After all, those who came to help at home before were all these fellow villagers. They are acquaintances and work efficiently.
The resort is uniformly built into Chinese-style villas with small courtyards.
Xu Qingzhi didn't like living in a pigeon cage house, so she naturally wouldn't consider building one. Since she decided to build a resort, she really hoped that the people who came here could relax completely, not just sleep or play cards in a different place.
The overall style is also mainly garden-based, and the chickens, ducks and cows in the back mountain will be moved to the farther Wuguipo for breeding.
Clearly divide the areas for animal husbandry, planting and living.
Xu Qingzhi didn't want to describe how penetrating the sound of a rooster crowing at five or six o'clock in the morning was.
That voice was so loud and clear.
The residential area includes places for myself, places for Mr. Mo and his friends, and places for tourists. In addition, a row of staff dormitories are built, so if someone wants to stay overnight or take a nap at noon, there is also a place to rest.
Along the way, Xu Qingzhi communicated his ideas with the designer.
"Okay." Xu Qingzhi nodded.
Coming down from the mountain, Xu Qingzhi happened to see prickly moss. He hadn't eaten this thing for many years and was a little interested.
She stopped, reached out her hand, carefully avoiding the thorns and broke off two.
It's never nice to eat alone when there's someone around.
She generously handed him one and asked, "Do you want to eat it?"
The designer girl's mouth twitched, and she looked at the girl with confusion as she handed over a piece of something covered in thorns. She asked in disbelief, "Is this... can I eat it?"
"It's edible." She peeled off the skin of the thorn moss, revealing the emerald green stems inside, and took a bite. "Hmm, it's quite sweet."
I remember when I was a child, the sweetest kind was the sweet stick, which tasted only a little sweet with a bit of astringency.
This time the prickly moss tasted much better than the one I remembered. Perhaps it was because although the spiritual energy array and spiritual spring water were only on their own farm, the entire ecosystem was cyclical, and the vegetation here was also imbued with a thin spiritual energy.
Seeing the boss say this, the young designer girl reached out for it with the mentality of giving it a try, peeled off the skin, removed the thorns, and then asked, "Is it edible like this?"
Xu Qingzhi nodded.
She put it into her mouth doubtfully. The moment she bit it, her slightly frowned brows relaxed, her eyes lit up, and she asked, "It's really sweet. Can I pick some more to take back?"
"Sure." Xu Qingzhi nodded and reminded: "Be careful of the thorns when picking them, and don't eat too much. My grandma said that eating too much will cause nosebleeds."
In the end, the girl took a handful and left, saying she would share them with other colleagues.
The thorns on this thing are similar to rose thorns. They prick your hands, but if you break off the thorns and pinch them, they're not that bad.
After communicating the preliminary design plan, Xu Qingzhi went back and told his parents about it.
The family’s vegetables are still being sold as normal and have not stopped because of the resort incident.
Because everyone was busy moving recently and couldn't hire too many people at once, she didn't put up too many vegetables. She only put up 500 kilograms of Chinese cabbage and 500 kilograms of lettuce, which could be picked by a few people in the family.
Wang Yanmei was holding a stainless steel basin in her arms when she came back from the back mountain. It was full of green mugwort.
"The mugwort by the river is growing tender. I picked some and made mugwort cakes to eat in the afternoon."
Xu Qingzhi was lying under the persimmon tree, nodded, and said, "Okay."
It’s hard to say whether this thing tastes good or not, but she doesn’t like it very much.
If her mother wanted to do it, she would help.
This thing tastes different for everyone.
The mugwort cakes made by some people in the village have too strong a taste. The mugwort is the kind with leaves. Xu Qingzhi didn’t like it after eating it a few times.
Of course, I remember having eaten some delicious food once or twice.
Wang Yanmei brought a pot of mugwort into the kitchen, and the two of them worked together to remove the roots of the mugwort.
This mugwort is very tender. When it is at its tenderest, it does not have any rotten or yellow leaves.
The emerald green is eye-catching.
Wash the mugwort, blanch it in water for one minute and then take it out.
Rinse the blanched mugwort with cold water, then put it into a juicer and squeeze it into juice with drinking water.
You don't need to add too much water, the ratio of water to mugwort should be about one to one, so that the mugwort juice will have a beautiful color.
