Chapter 895: Mugwort and Wild Chrysanthemums
Mugwort? Wild chrysanthemums?
It sounds a bit unbelievable, but if you think about it carefully, there is a lot of potential here!
Mugwort is something you can see everywhere on the roadsides of desolate villages, and wild chrysanthemums go without saying; even on bare rock walls where not a speck of soil can be seen, they can hang upside down and grow in large patches.
Not to mention the rocky beaches and the mountains; in previous years, there was still some green grass, otherwise, would those little sheep be jumping and wanting to go up there every day?
"Alright!" Song Tan made the final decision: "We'll listen to our Qiao Qiao!"
It's just that for these 700-plus mu, do we need to build another place to produce mugwort floss and mugwort sticks next year?
Song Tan looked at Secretary Xiao Zhu. Secretary Xiao Zhu was stunned for a moment: "Don't look at me. If you have confidence in your own products, just do it!"
However, she also began to ponder: "There's no need to rush this, right? Didn't you say that three-year-aged mugwort is the best?"
Xin Jun cleared his throat. Having been motionless during that livestream session, he spoke sincerely at this moment: "I think one year's potency is quite enough."
"Besides, this thing paired with mosquito-repellent sachets really works well."
And Xin Jun spoke up: "Just thinking about it is bad. Why don't you write a diary or an essay? That way, even after many years, you can still take it out and read it."
With that level, it's better than us buying drones and cameras!
"Don't worry!" Secretary Xiao Zhu could still guarantee this much: "When we were squatting on the doorsteps of fellow villagers eating steamed buns back then, who cared how many people were squeezed at the table!"
"Don't!" Qiao Qiao stopped her: "We shouldn't use public property for private use, and we should avoid using private property for public use. This drone is something our family will need in the future, I'll buy it."
Qiao Qiao was immediately satisfied: "Don't worry! If you have any ideas, feel free to bring them up. For good things like this, there are plenty of spots for the pig-slaughtering feast!"
"No rush, no rush!" Secretary Xiao Zhu held back instead: "Let's hire a lawyer to draft the contract properly, and by the way, let him grind with the village committee for two more days."
A normal road construction plan takes at least three to five years to plan. Our Yun City does have plans to build roads to the surrounding areas, but if the funds for that plan aren't in place, it will always just be a plan.
And there are wild chrysanthemums; the flower buds can be picked to make flower tea for soaking in water, and the ones that have bloomed can be used to steam hydrosol, refine essential oils, make medicinal oils, and create hand cream...
Oh my! So the silly cousin isn't completely useless after all! Qiao Qiao laughed, and at this moment, he hurriedly called Wu Lei:
"Yes!" Shao Dong said solemnly: "Listen to Song Tan, we will plant mugwort and wild chrysanthemums! When the time comes, you must also take the dogs from home to patrol every day, okay?"
Here it comes, here it comes, the reflections and post-reading thoughts that are a must for every activity.
But Song Tan was not only not resistant, but instead became more and more high-spirited: "Okay, I'll go right now—"
Good heavens! Qiao Qiao couldn't help but sigh: How did he have such a good eye to invite such a good tutor among so many people!
Understood! Although the last procurement didn't go through, it is necessary to strengthen the relationship.
"Wu Lei!"
Not to mention anything else, just these 700 mu of land, hiring people to harvest or pick, could drive the people in several surrounding villages.
Sure enough, two heads are better than one!
Mugwort buds in spring, mature mugwort at the Dragon Boat Festival, and it can even grow a second crop in autumn—planting mugwort, it can work!
"Besides, why haven't Yanran and the others come over yet? I still want to borrow the drone for aerial photography..."
"I have to think about how to tell the children this good news." He said solemnly, able to take this to heart.
But just as the municipal side was preparing to bid, the funds were allocated, and it was prioritized for the road section in Yunqiao Village...
Wu Lei hung up the phone and felt a surge of pride—look, my sister respects me so much! She considered my friends so meticulously!
And the pig-slaughtering feast is so lively, shouldn't we record it with a video?
Now? The north wind is howling outside... Teacher Xin still has a way: "Don't rush. When you've organized your language, we'll start a livestream and watch it with the students! You, as a teacher, can't peek."
How could Secretary Xiao Zhu not inquire?
Actually, two old ladies could have come, but they had suffered hardships when they were at the grassroots level in their early years, and it was freezing cold, so they were afraid their bodies wouldn't be able to take it, which is why they gave up.
"Buy what!" Zhang Yanping glanced at her: "Does it cost money to cover the mountain? Don't spend money recklessly just because it's a small amount! You wait, I'll open two spots for the pig-slaughtering feast, and I'll invite two photographers."
No other meaning, it's just that we can't let people feel that we are in a hurry for it here, so that if it works out in the future, people might regret it in their hearts.
"I can do it!" Song Tan's face was flushed with excitement! Wow! A whole mountain listens to me!
She was sincere and considerate: "Just invite them in your name, and say that our village will have some fun together—by the way, the two municipal procurement officers you brought along on the way last time also helped a lot. Ask if they have contact information, and invite them over together."
After thinking about it, she asked: "Can I go see the mountain first?"
And here, she also urged Secretary Xiao Zhu: "Don't ask me if I'm covering it or not, I'm covering it for both of them. Look, the plan is already made. Let's go, let's go sign the contract!"
He wasn't completely brainless either. Hearing that she still wanted to invite those two procurement officers, he also thought triumphantly:
Oh my! In the pile of cow dung, Wu Lei suddenly regretted not taking the civil service exam back then—he felt he had that kind of brain!
"It seems to be the one from the province, who said he came here once with his secretary and felt that agricultural development cannot be separated from convenient transportation, which is why he went back and brought it up..."
Shao Dong saw that she spoke solemnly, and listened carefully at this moment—
Since it was said that way...
Forget it, if I wait, I'll just place an order and buy one directly. If I can't use it, I can keep it to play with myself later.
That thing of theirs has everything, the lenses are in a long row, and they play with them skillfully. From the release of the last kudzu powder video until now, the view count has reached over 300,000, and that's a purely new account.
Secretary Xiao Zhu gave a dry laugh and reached out her hand at this moment: "I have five grandfathers and five family members."
Who exerted force behind the scenes, they don't say, but we can't not know!
However, speaking of this, I still have a piece of gossip: "Isn't our road being built too fast? I inquired about it and heard some news."
Having said that, the two of them went through the strangers who had been to their home in their minds simultaneously. Then they looked at each other—
Besides, letting your good friend invite them, his family also does business, maybe the two of them can connect!
"Brother Wu Lei, what was the name of your ex-girlfriend's ex-boyfriend? I feel he is quite sincere to you. Why don't you invite him to the pig-slaughtering feast during the New Year!"
"Alright!" Qiao Qiao, who had money, was no longer the stingy person he used to be, and was very generous at this moment: "I'll open a table just for your grandfathers! Let's say it first, I know your family background is not ordinary, but there are no rules for our rural banquet. If you really can't sit down, it's normal to squeeze in."
And Qiao Qiao heard everyone discussing heatedly, and asked excitedly again at this moment: "Are you not listening to me?" ===== CHAPTER 896 =====
