Chapter 213 Gao Yue Passed the Exam
Construction continued on Xiaofushan. Before the early rice was harvested, the pond at the foot of the mountain had been dug. Gao Mingcheng then took the time to compact the foundation around the pond bit by bit.
In some places, they would build mulberry-based fish ponds or fruit-based fish ponds, that is, plant mulberry trees and fruit trees around the pond, but here they are particular about not planting trees on the newly dug pond base, saying that it will damage the pond base. So Gao Mingcheng did not plant any trees, but he plans to use this large piece of land to grow watermelons next year.
Watermelons cannot be planted continuously, so you have to change the field every year.
The hired workers were busy on the mountain. They needed to cut down the trees and weeds first, and pile those that could be sold together, and those that could not be sold together.
But not all the trees on the mountain need to be cut down. For example, the taro trees, mulberry trees, bayberry trees, peach trees, tea trees and a few fir trees will all be left for the time being.
These are considered economic crops and are all useful. They will be left here temporarily and then cut down or transplanted when specific plans are made.
Gao Mingcheng was busy when someone suddenly came.
"Gao Mingcheng!" A familiar and loud voice sounded. Gao Mingcheng looked up and saw Gao Yue's smiling face at a glance.
"Gao Yue, why are you here?" Gao Mingcheng straightened up, handed the axe in his hand to the villager beside him, and then walked towards Gao Yue.
Gao Yue was wearing a white shirt and black trousers, and he looked quite handsome.
"I came to play with you! I was wondering why you hadn't been to the county for a long time. It turns out you have contracted a mountain! Awesome!" Gao Yue gave Gao Mingcheng a thumbs up. It was only after he came to Gaojia Village that he learned that Gao Mingcheng had contracted a mountain and said he planned to use it to plant fruit trees.
"Hey, I don't like to work in the county. I have to find something to do in the village. I only have one acre of land and I have plenty of time. A while ago, I heard Brother Xiao say that he planned to go to Guangdong to get a few trucks of tangerines this fall, so I asked him to get me some tangerine trees. He agreed, but I later found that there was no place to plant them. After thinking about it, I just contracted a mountain." Gao Mingcheng explained.
Since he came back from Yangcheng with a lot of beauties, he went to Gao Guobing's house once and never went there again. Even when he went to the county to buy plastic bottles to store honey, he came and went in a hurry.
As Gao Yue walked, he looked around the hill and said, "Are you planning to use it to grow sugar oranges?"
"How is that possible!" Gao Mingcheng immediately denied it and said, "I plan to plant all the fruit trees that are suitable for planting here! If there are not enough trees, I will plant tea trees instead!"
Tea oil trees are easy to grow. There is a large area of tea oil trees in the mountains belonging to the brigade. After so many years, they are still lush and green, and the yield of tea oil seeds is also very high.
Half of Xiaofu Mountain is shady and not suitable for growing fruit trees, so Gao Mingcheng plans to use it to plant tea oil trees.
The oil tea tree is a semi-shade and semi-sun tree species. The seedlings prefer shade, while the mature forests prefer sun.
The hillside that is blocked from the sunlight is located on the north slope. Although it is partially blocked from the sunlight by a peak of Niuweiling, it is not always cloudy. It is sunny for half a day, which is suitable for the growth of tea trees.
Gao Yue didn't know much about these, but he didn't understand them at all, so he nodded and said, "Where are you going to buy the other fruit seedlings?"
Gao Mingcheng didn't have a specific plan for this yet, he just said, "Let's try to find out first."
Gao Yue said, "There are many people growing fruit trees in Shimen Village. You can go there to buy them! The village party secretary there has some relationship with my father!"
When mentioning Shimen Village, Gao Mingcheng frowned subconsciously.
Shimen Village has a good geographical location. There is a very good variety of bayberry there. The fruits are big, red and sweet!
Even the large bayberry forest on Yangmeibing Road in the county was sourced from Shimen Village.
Gao Yue was not an outsider, so Gao Mingcheng said truthfully: "I have an uncle there, but I don't have a good relationship with him, and I'm too lazy to deal with him."
Gao Yue looked at Gao Mingcheng in surprise and said, "I didn't expect you to be so stubborn! You don't have a good relationship with him, so just don't associate with him. Just find someone else to buy it for you! Okay! I'll do it for you! I'll go directly to their village party secretary and buy you a batch of fruit seedlings through him, how about that?"
"This kind of fruit tree should be planted in the spring, right? Then I'll go find him during the Chinese New Year and ask him to get the job done and transport the fruit seedlings to the village, how about that?"
As soon as Gao Yue finished speaking, Gao Mingcheng patted Gao Yue on the shoulder excitedly and said loudly: "Okay, thank you!"
Trees can be planted in autumn, but it is best to plant them in spring as the survival rate is higher.
Originally, Gao Mingcheng planned to find someone to buy the fruit seedlings if it didn't work out. Now, with Gao Yue stepping in and asking the village party secretary of Shimen Village to do the job, this matter will definitely be done.
If he asks someone to buy fruit seedlings, and that person doesn't know anything, he will definitely be cheated!
But if the village party secretary comes forward, the fruit seedlings we buy will definitely be good ones!
"It's very hot in the mountains. Let's go back to the house. Gao Yue, do you want to stay in the village for a few days, or go back today?" Gao Mingcheng led Gao Yue to his home.
"I plan to stay for a few days. I told my dad and he agreed." Gao Yue said, and then asked mysteriously: "Gao Mingcheng, do you think I was admitted to the university?"
Gao Mingcheng wanted to roll his eyes when he heard this.
Do you still need to guess?
Even though he didn't know what happened in his previous life, just by looking at Gao Yue's arrogant look, he knew that Gao Yue must have passed the exam!
So he said, "I guess you not only got into college, but also got into the police academy in the provincial capital!"
Gao Yue's pupils contracted instantly, and after a brief surprise, he quickly figured it out.
He had said before that he wanted to apply to the police academy, so it was not surprising that Gao Mingcheng guessed this.
A big smile appeared on his face, and he raised his head proudly and said, "Yes! In half a month, I will go to the provincial capital to study!"
Gao Mingcheng congratulated him with a smile, then asked him if he was studying criminal investigation, and got a correct answer.
In his previous life, Gao Yue became a criminal policeman, and it seems that he has chosen this path in this life.
The police academy in the provincial capital was established on April 1, 1985, and it has only been two years since its establishment.
As they were talking, the two returned home. As soon as they got home, two dogs came up to them enthusiastically.
Gao Yue looked at the elf and sized him up for a moment before saying, "This dog is good looking. You've taken good care of it."
He waved and greeted the elf, but the elf ignored him and just circled around Gao Mingcheng, trying to compete for favor with Hei Hu.
Gao Yue pouted and looked unhappy.
He cursed angrily: "You have no conscience!"
Gao Mingcheng laughed and went into the kitchen first to pour tea for Gao Yue.
He saw Xuan Duomei was already preparing lunch in the kitchen, and knew that Xuan Duomei had specially prepared it early, otherwise their family usually ate late and had simpler meals.
There is an old saying that you should eat a good breakfast, a full lunch, and a small dinner.
But in fact, unless there are guests at their house, breakfast and lunch are simple, and only dinner is relatively rich.
Gao Yue looked at the house inside and out and said, "When I came here last time, the house was not completely finished! Now it seems that except for the lack of rooms, everything else is pretty good."
Gao Yueshang came back before the Chinese New Year last year. He stayed in the village for a few days and said he wanted to go hunting in the mountains, but he only caught a few birds.
At that time, Gao Mingcheng was still living in Gao Zhuang's house. After Gao Yue came, he slept with him. However, Gao Yue's sleeping posture was so horrible that he suffered a lot in those days.
Thinking that Gao Yue had come again, Gao Mingcheng suddenly panicked. Oh no, although there was an empty room in their house, there was no bed!
As for sleeping together...that's impossible, he has a wife now!
After drinking tea to quench his thirst, Gao Mingcheng brought up the matter and said, "I'll get some fresh straw to spread on the floor, and then a mat. I'll be able to sleep on it for a few days."
But Gao Yue rolled his eyes at him and said, "You have so much wood, but you don't even know how to make another bed!"
"I don't want to sleep on the floor. How about this, I have a bed at home, let's move it over!"
Gao Yue had lived in the county for nine years and had long since become a sophisticated city dweller who was unwilling to sleep on the floor. Fortunately, his family was also in the village, but they had moved away a long time ago and the house was empty, with only two beds, an old cabinet and a set of old tables and chairs left.
Although the bed is not very good, it is better to fix it than to sleep on the floor!
When Gao Mingcheng heard this, he immediately agreed, and the two of them went to Gao Yue's old house to move things.
