"Haha, I remember! I remember! I got drunk that night. Sorghum liquor is really strong."
......
"Hey, I remember this was a pond, how come it's turned into soil?"
"With concentrated living, this area is deserted. At that time, we proposed to reclaim the homestead, so Zhan Baoxing and his team simply filled this area and connected the land into one piece."
"Then why are these bamboo forests still preserved?"
"Don't mention it. This damn thing is very difficult to deal with. Simply cutting the bamboo on it is useless. The more you cut, the faster it grows! The only way to deal with it is to chop it and sprinkle sesame seeds, or sprinkle salt water, or even use an excavator to dig up all the roots! So some bamboo forests that are not right in the middle of the soil are just left alone."
......
"Brother Huo, do you recognize where this is?"
"How could I not recognize it? This is the place I used to come here every day. Haha."
"Oh, it's really emotional to talk about it. Qingyue's old man worked so hard to repair the house that he became thin and exhausted. He even sacrificed his life for it. As a result, the house has turned into dirt now, and there is no trace of it left."
"Therefore, we must seize the opportunities brought by the development of the times. If we cling to these things that were once precious, we are likely to miss out on truly better things in the future."
Gu Daqiang nodded in agreement.
......
"Brother, do you like the village as it is now?"
The two walked for a long time and finally found some stone benches built by the villagers to sit down. Huo Qianli asked a question that surprised Gu Daqiang.
Seeing Gu Daqiang's surprised and hesitant expression, Huo Qianli smiled slightly, "Just chatting casually, we are two brothers, don't think too much."
Gu Daqiang wiped his bald head, slowly took out a cigarette from the cigarette box and lit it, taking the opportunity to think and organize his words, "How should I put it, it is definitely more comfortable to live like this, everyone is close, it is convenient and lively. But, there are indeed many things missing, such as ponds, bamboo forests, and fruit forests; chopping wood and collecting firewood, picking bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest to start a fire, wearing straw raincoats and hats to herd cattle, etc., it is still less fun. Generally speaking, life is definitely much better now."
Huo Qianli nodded, "Then what do you think about me building a bunch of farmhouses here?"
Gu Daqiang had lived in the city for a few years, so of course he knew what a farm stay was. After thinking about it, he easily came to a conclusion: anyone who had this idea must have had his head stuck in a door.
Out of respect for Huo Qianli, he tried to speak in a tactful tone: "Farmhouse? Who is coming here? I'm afraid people from the village can't come! The few people in town can't afford it."
Huo Qianli smiled and said, "We will build it in the most typical Linpan style, with a small pond in front, a spacious courtyard, and some vegetable fields and orchards behind the house. The house will be built in the same way as the courtyards we designed before, with a few more guest rooms."
Gu Daqiang frowned, looking at Huo Qianli's serious expression, quite puzzled. Why couldn't he persuade him?
He said, "Brother Huo, your design doesn't seem to have much to attract tourists, right?"
"You are right." Huo Qianli nodded and paused, "Then let's build another Chinese herbal medicine museum, focusing on Salvia miltiorrhiza, and adding those Chinese herbal medicines we can grow. Make an introduction, from planting to processing to finished products, and give a detailed explanation of the whole process."
Without waiting for Gu Daqiang to refute, he said, "Well, let's add a folk experience hall! Add all those interesting things you just mentioned, and then set up some scenes for experience. It should be good."
"Brother, wait a minute!" Gu Daqiang finally couldn't help saying, "No one is interested in what you're saying! Look at those farmhouses in the city, some of them are doing picking, some of them are staying by the mountains and rivers and eating local specialties. Who would want to come to do all of this?"
Huo Qianli smiled slightly, "Why doesn't anyone come? Only those with children will come."
"You have children?" Gu Daqiang was startled, then his eyes widened, "You mean to let those city people bring their children to play?"
"Play? How can it be called playing?" Huo Qianli raised his eyebrows mischievously, "This is called research and study."
