Chapter 396

Song Tan thought to herself—these two are truly talented at sales!

So she sighed: "Even if I install surveillance, if he wants to come in, he'll still come in; if he wants to extort, he'll still extort..."

"That's different!"

The young man was passionate and eager to prove his point: "With surveillance, we have concrete evidence, knowing the other party intends to steal."

"Besides, the surveillance in orchards nowadays can sound an alarm in advance—like this model of ours, the moment someone comes at night, *bam! * It lights up! If they keep moving, it loudly warns: 【You have entered a monitored area】!"

"Tell me, wouldn't a thief be panicked by that?"

"Even if they aren't panicked, once we see the movement on our end, we can always rush over, right?"

The young man wasn't very old, but he had a thorough grasp of village dynamics: "Just think about it, since everyone is from the same neighborhood, if we can avoid a falling-out, it's easier to get along in the village—this way, the other party gets intimidated first and might not even come in; it's also a gentle reminder."

In short, according to the two installers, installing surveillance had a hundred benefits and not a single drawback!

Even though Song Tan knew surveillance would have to be installed sooner or later, she couldn't help but feel moved by their pitch.

If it weren't for the fact that her own goods didn't really need salesmanship, she would have tried to poach these two talents no matter what.

She sighed and pointed:

"The bowl-shaped hill in front of us, both inside and out, belongs to my family, including the pond in the middle."

"And that hill extending out over here, the chestnut grove and the tea garden, are also mine; surveillance needs to be installed there as well."

The other party squinted at the chestnut grove: "Oh, chestnuts? I thought it was a nursery specifically for saplings; look at how beautifully those flowers are blooming!"

】

As the two chatted, they didn't really understand why surveillance was needed for this chestnut grove, which had little economic value.

But... whatever the God of Wealth says goes.

They followed Song Tan toward the chestnut grove: "The area of your hill is quite large, but it's not being utilized much right now. If you really want to do this, my suggestion is that we prioritize surveillance for the parts currently in use."

"For long-term planning, the signal on the mountain is poor, and the transmission distance for network cables is too weak. If you're willing to spend the money, I still suggest you install fiber optics."

Song Tan had done her homework too: "For my situation, wouldn't a wireless bridge work?"

"It's not very convenient."

The other party explained it logically: "If you use a wireless bridge for an orchard, the signal isn't very good and tends to be unstable. At a critical moment, if you didn't capture the footage because of that, how frustrating would it be to have installed it?"

"We suggest installing solar panels, high-power ones. I wouldn't say they're the most advanced, but they offer the best stability."

"The specific functions are just as we said: lights up when it sees people and issues a warning. Five-megapixel high-definition cameras; they work even without electricity or internet."

"Plus, the solar panels store energy, so they can hold up for three consecutive cloudy or rainy days. Currently, it's the most cost-effective option."

"If you really want to install them, we'll also have to consider burying cables and lightning protection measures."

The other person had also walked around, taken a general look, and now returned to add:

"The orchard area currently in use isn't large, plus that chestnut grove over there; a total of 4 to 8 sets of surveillance will be enough, and we'll arrange everything including the pond and the duck shed for you."

"Then, about the fiber optics you mentioned earlier..."

Song Tan was somewhat tempted—how stable would fiber optic speeds be!

The young man took a look around with a drone and recorded the terrain: "My suggestion is to install the fiber optics anyway. Since not much of this front area is being used, it won't be that expensive."

"If you add more later for the whole hill, isn't there a 'Fiber to the Village' policy now? You can apply for it, go talk to them; it won't be very expensive."

When it came to surveillance, the whole family were laymen. However, this company had been introduced by Zhao Fangyuan, and if one really had to say, just looking at the finished house was enough to show how much Song Tan trusted Zhao Fangyuan.

Therefore, after listening to the simple explanation from the few of them, Song Tan stopped giving any amateur guidance and instead nodded directly:

"Alright, you guys come up with the plan and the budget."

The client was straightforward, and the two young installers were happy too. Right then, under the scorching sun, they put on their baseball caps, grabbed their surveying tools, and headed up the mountain.

"We'll start by measuring the basic range and distances. We'll send you the specific quotes and plans once we've organized them."

"After all, this is a big project, and we need to consider the integration and uniformity of future additions, so it might take some time."

"No problem, I've waited this long, a few more days won't hurt."

Song Tan waved her hand: "Don't be too late. I'll go back and arrange lunch, and by the way, I'll pick a watermelon for us to eat at noon. I'll leave this to you."

Both sides were polite to each other, and everyone was happy.

The two young men really weren't afraid of the sun; wearing their baseball caps, they began to seriously prepare for the distance measurements.

However, even though they had been prepared beforehand, when they stepped into the chestnut grove area, they were still shocked by the entire wall of Cherokee roses blooming in front of them—

"Holy crap! With a great place like this, what internet-famous base could compare!"

"This family is too low-key—it's so beautiful, and they just let it grow wild like this?"

"They probably don't know how to market it—I'm telling you, if you put a sea of flowers like this on TikTok or Little Red Book, the traffic would come pouring in."

"Can we take a picture?"

"Come on, let's take one—I'll send it to my wife to see."

Taking a picture of flowers didn't take much effort, and since they couldn't finish the work in a short while anyway, the two took out their phones without hesitation.

These Cherokee roses grew too vigorously and lushly, their white petals trembling lightly in the wind like butterflies.

The yellow flower centers were particularly eye-catching; green leaves, white flowers, and tender yellow centers—no one could resist this freshness and softness, this ethereal beauty and charm!

Bees and butterflies danced among the flowers, and when the wind blew, the ethereal scent seemed to waft over with the fragrance of the flowers.

Just using a melodic and graceful background track would be enough to create a dreamy aesthetic.

The two young men still had work to do, after all; once they had taken their photos, been shocked, and posted them, their eyes soon turned back to the tools at hand.

And while they didn't know it, those few short videos suddenly went viral on TikTok and Little Red Book—

【Help! Is a place like this real?】

【Asking for the location! It's really too beautiful, sob sob sob】

【My god! Checking the IP, it's in our province. Does our province still have such a heavenly place?】

【Asking for info on where this is! I'm driving there overnight—what kind of flower is this? It's really too beautiful!】

【This is Cherokee rose, Rosaceae family; it's often used as rootstock for grafting roses.】

【This still needs to be rootstock? I think it's already beautiful enough on its own.】

【It's different; its growth and disease resistance are particularly strong. Using it as rootstock can bring better planting characteristics to some new grafted varieties.】

【But this patch of Cherokee rose has very high medicinal value! It must be processed as soon as possible. Asking for the address!】

【Science popularizer, thank you!】

【I don't care! It's really beautiful! I'm going there right now!】

【It's really too ethereal, like a dreamy realm where no one has ever stepped...】
