Druid's Country Retirement

In the distance, the mountains are rolling, and the trees on the mountains have become colorful; the late autumn sunshine shines on the earth, reflecting a golden light, making people feel extremely warm and comfortable.

Li Hongbing drove a new three-wheeler, bouncing along the field ridge to the vegetable field.

The Baogu land is located on the northern half slope of the vegetable field, covering an area of ​​about 30 acres. This land is barren land with thin soil and low fertility, making it impossible to grow anything. At that time, most of the land was planted with vegetables, but this land was the only one unknown. What is appropriate to plant.

Li Hongbing waved his hand and started planting corn.

Anyway, if it's empty, it's empty. If you can collect a little bit, it's worth it.

A path passes through the corn field, and there is a golden world on both sides of the road. Tall corn stalks are filled with plump corn cobs. The road is covered with golden corn leaves. The three-bouncer drives on it, making a crunching sound. Crisp and sweet.

At the bottom of the hillside, Uncle Lu, Uncle Shaotou, Uncle Erma, Xiao Chen and a group of helpers from other villages were happily picking corn. The pile of freshly picked corn sticks was as high as the hill.

"Uncle Confused, you're busy!" Li Hongbing parked the car.

"The sun is so hot that you, the boss, just came here. If you had left it in the past, you would have been beaten until you cried for your father and mother." Uncle Muse skillfully broke off the corn stalks from the corn stalks and threw them to the ground. Aunt Hua and the village woman picked up the Baogu sticks and brought them to Baogudui.

The shaved uncle laughed and added insult to injury.

"Crying for father and mother, I remember Li whipping him on the head with a wicker stick. The red soldiers were so stunned that they didn't even dare to cry."

Uncle Erma followed closely and broke the news.

"No, the red soldiers were very skinny at that time. Li's head was only three days old and a small one. If he was beaten every five days, several of his belts would be broken."

"What the heck, the Red Soldier even peeked at Guixiang's bath. Let me tell you, I was at the back that day and saw the Red Soldier with his butt sticking out and lying in the grass by the river. Guixiang."

Before Aunt Jinhua could finish speaking, Li Hongbing quickly stopped her. She was looking at the old almanac from that time. He didn't understand anything at that time and just joined in the fun. Besides, no young or old man in the village had ever gone to see it in the summer.

Ah!

Grandpa definitely didn't go, he was an exception.

"Auntie, I'm reporting it to you. It's the old man."

As soon as the word "Lao" was spoken, Uncle Muzhu, Uncle Erma, Uncle Shaoto and a group of old men quickly interrupted.

"Hongbing, your corn is growing really vigorously."

"No, there are 8 or 9 corn stalks on one corn stalk. It doesn't matter if it's just one corn stalk, they are all there."

"I have never seen corn growing so well in my life. I came here and asked, what kind of fertilizer do you use?"

Four or five old people hurriedly pulled Li Hongbing away. Aunt Jinhua and the women in the village next to them were laughing. Who didn't know that these old people were also peepers back then.

Now that you know how to save face, why did you do it earlier?

After promising various conditions, Li Hongbing walked out of Uncle Fu's confinement with satisfaction and looked at the fields of golden buds.

"How much corn can one acre produce?"

Xiao Chen, the resident manager, took out his mobile phone and pressed it.

"Mr. Li, I just calculated that the yield per mu has reached 2000 kilograms. After all harvesting, there should be about 6 kilograms of corn. I informed the company in advance that a transportation team has been sent into the mountain."

Are you so anxious?

Afraid that I might strike first and take away some of it.

Li Hongbing looked sideways at Xiao Chen, "I don't care how much you pull, just leave me 2 pounds."

2 pounds! ! !

Mr. Li is opening his mouth like a lion.

When the sweet potatoes were harvested some time ago, the company knew that Mr. Li had withheld part of it. He was angry at the time and said that his work was not meticulous enough. Why didn't the transport truck be prepared in advance when the sweet potatoes were dug? Why should the sweet potatoes be taken away immediately after being dug out? Mr. Li can take advantage of this opportunity.

Fortunately, Mr. Li did not interfere when large sweet potatoes were dug out later. Moreover, after these sweet potatoes were put on the market, the response was very strong.

The price of 50 yuan per catty did not stop customers from buying it. Within ten minutes of being put on the shelves, tens of thousands of catties of sweet potatoes were sold out, and the APP software almost crashed.

Many customers who have signed up for VIP called the headquarters and asked to sign up for VVVIP, claiming that no matter how much it cost, they could buy Oak Vegetables directly without having to fight.

After the corn harvest this time, the picking of vegetable fields in Caogou Village is basically coming to an end, and the remaining focus is on other vegetable planting bases, waiting for major expansion in the coming year.

For this reason, Oak Technology and Oak Agriculture paid special attention to corn harvesting and required Xiao Chen to stop Mr. Li from opening his mouth no matter what. He could take a small amount, but not a large amount.

If you take it seriously, tell me!

Let me, a pawn, be used as cannon fodder. Knowing that Mr. Li is not easy to offend, I will be easy to bully.

Xiao Chen looked at Li Hongbing angrily, biting his teeth and stomping his feet.

"Mr. Li, you...you can't take away this batch of corn!"

Ah!

Li Hongbing smiled. Now the young man is so bold that he dares to contradict his boss.

"Why can't I take it?"

Xiao Chen was very panicked, and then he thought, if we all die together, I can't bear the thunder alone, so he simply spoke out.

"Vice President Li said that this vegetable field is also the company's property, and the workers' wages are also paid by the company. You are the hands-off shopkeeper. You are used to spending too much. The company cannot afford to mess around. If you need it, you can take less."

Speaking of the latter, the voice became smaller and smaller.

Li Hongbing was furious!

Slander, pure slander, he worked hard for the company and died, almost costing his life.

Thief Li had the audacity to call me a hands-off shopkeeper.

Today, I am still holding on to the corn. Only 2 kilograms of corn can make up for my broken heart.

Li Hongbing strode to the corn pile, picked up a shovel and shoveled the corn stick into the car.

Xiao Chen looked at it and curled his lips.

Anyway, I've said everything I need to say, and the rest has nothing to do with me.

"Red Soldier, how much corn are you going to keep?" Uncle Nude came over to help load the truck.

Li Hongbing thought for a moment, "Pack ten carts and take them back to make corn noodles, bake some grain and wine, and let Xiao Chen take the rest away."

"Okay!" Uncle Muzhu nodded and called for people to come over and load the car.

Many people are powerful.

The cart of Baogu was filled to the brim in no time.

Li Hongbing rode his Sanbengzi and turned around and drove towards his old house. On the way, he saw Shiyue lying next to the ditch, gasping for air and looking like he was dying, so he quickly stopped the car.

"October, why are you here?"

October's eyes were full of resentment, and he tried his best to raise his head and let out weak sobs.

"What, you chased me all the way and you can't run away! You stupid kid, why didn't you call me."

Li Hongbing jumped out of the car, picked up October and put it into the corn pile in the carriage.

I shouted!

But no one pays attention to me! !

October was speechless. He chased her all the way and almost died with half his life. He really didn't have the energy to pay attention to him.

Pulling Baogu and hurried home, Sanbengzi drove directly into the rice field and activated the self-unloading function. As the two hydraulic rods rose, the carriage slowly tilted upwards.

Before October, who was lying in the pile of corn, could react, he was wrapped up in the corn stick and poured down and drowned. After unloading the corn, Li Hongbing remembered that October was still in the car, so he quickly jumped out of the car and rummaged through the pile of corn.

At this time, only one part of the corn stick was seen shaking. Li Hongbing hurriedly stepped forward and opened the corn stick. Shi Shi was foaming at the mouth and his eyes were full of confusion.

"October, October, are you okay?"

Li Hongbing quickly sent the original power into its body, and thousands of kilograms of corn sticks were pressed on it. If other animals were okay, October's body had not recovered yet, and this weight was too cruel for it.

It took a while for October to feel better.

"Just stay at home, it's too dangerous outside." Li Hongbing saw that there was no problem in October and was going back to the vegetable field to pull Baogu.

As soon as he heard that Li Hongbing was leaving, Shiyue hurriedly got up and stumbled to the passenger seat of Santengzi.

"You still want to come with me?" Li Hongbing sighed, feeling insecure in October, and patted the passenger seat cushion, "It's hard for you, come on up."

October hurriedly climbed into the passenger seat, looking happy.

Returning to the corn field again, the newly emptied corn pile was filled with corn sticks again.

"Hongbing, what kind of dog are you? You have such a big frame, but you're just too thin." Uncle Nude asked curiously when he saw October with Li Hongbing.

When I saw so many strangers in October, I hid behind Li Hongbing in fear. Occasionally, I would poke my head out to take a look, and then immediately pull my head back.

By chance, Aunt Jinhua dumped the corn sticks in the basket onto the ground. The clattering sound made October fall down on the ground in fright, covering his head with his paws, and his tail, which had nowhere to rest, trembled.

After seeing this, the villagers laughed and shook their heads.

At least half of the villagers present have dogs at home, which are used to guard their homes and homes. Although they cannot go up the mountain to hunt, they must be brave. Like Village Chief Li, he trembles with fear at the slightest movement, and in the end his fate is to skin and eat the meat.

"It's a pity. I'm so scared that I lost such a good frame for nothing." Uncle Muddle-head shook his head regretfully and asked others to show off.

Maybe the villagers are ignorant, but that doesn’t mean no one recognizes them.

Xiao Chen observed October carefully, looking at its head, body, paws and tail, and couldn't help but murmur in his heart.

Why is this dog boss so lion-like?

Thinking about it, Xiao Chen didn't dare to say it out loud. The boss even called him a dog. As an employee of his, if he stood up and lifted the lid, he wouldn't be slapping the boss in the face.

Let alone a dog, even if the boss said it was a cat, he would meow twice in response.

After loading ten carts of corn, Li Hongbing was left to act as the shopkeeper again. He pulled Shan Xing up and was about to walk away when Uncle Fu shouted.

"Red Soldier, remember to keep the corn sticks in the sun for a few more days to avoid mold growth."

"I know, pull it back and I'll start showing off." Li Hongbing waved his hand and left Baogu Di on his three-bouncer.

Playing songs all the way to the village clinic.

The gold in the yard had gone there, and he was probably cheating on food and drink at the entrance of the village.

Sun Lianqian and Xiao Wuzi heard the commotion and walked out of the house. When they saw it was Li Hongbing and Shan Xing, they happily ran forward to say hello.

"Master, teacher wife."

Li Hongbing parked the three-wheeler and looked around. He saw many villagers and tourists coming in and out, which showed that the two apprentices were running the infirmary very well, and there were patients who took the initiative to come to the clinic.

"Xiaowuzi, how are you reading the medical book I gave you?"

Xiao Wuzi whispered with a guilty conscience, "Master, I have finished studying [Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases], and now I am studying [Qian Jin Yao Prescription] and [Complete Medicinal Diet]. Am I learning too slowly?"

slow! !

In just a few days, I was able to finish studying the theory of febrile diseases and miscellaneous diseases.

Li Hongbing had deep feelings about these two apprentices. Xiao Wuzi was not good at acupuncture and massage, but was particularly talented in prescriptions and Chinese medicine. Sun Lianqian was just the opposite. She had a lot of experience in acupuncture and massage, but was not good at prescriptions and Chinese medicine.

By the way, there is also the leaky little cotton-padded jacket at home. He is smart in all aspects and can learn it quickly, but he just doesn't study seriously and keeps hitting things with a hammer and a stick.

Three apprentices and three personalities are really a headache.

"Learn slowly, don't be in a hurry, enjoy the learning process slowly, and savor the joy of learning carefully." Li Hongbing patted Xiao Wuzi's head kindly, turned to look at Sun Lianqian, and immediately changed his face, "How are you doing with the medicinal diet? I didn’t hear what Wanda told me!”

Medicinal food! ! !

Sun Lianqian stuck out her tongue, pretending to be cute and innocent, her eyes fell on Xiao Wuzi, and she kept winking.

"Master, I..." Xiao Wuzi was about to speak, but was blocked by Li Hongbing's eyes, "What do you want to say, let your senior sister say it."

Seeing that things have come to this point, it's hard to get through if you don't confess.

"Master, I don't like to read medical books. I feel sleepy when I read the square characters. Let the third junior brother handle this matter!" Sun Lianqian muttered aggrievedly. After speaking, she immediately jumped behind Shan Xing and rescued her coquettishly, "Junior wife, I really see If you don’t go in, your eyes will be red. If you don’t believe it, look at it.”

Shan Xing was kind-hearted and cared very much for his two apprentices. When the weather got cold, he would make clothes and quilts for them. From time to time, he would also invite them to his home for meals and nutritional supplements.

When Sun Lianqian said that her eyes were red, she quickly looked over and exclaimed.

"It's really red, brother, look how tired the child is."

"!!!" Li Hongbing was speechless. Is this a loving mother's failure? When faced with Sun Lianqian, a disciple, he could only say that he was blind at first, "Forget it, I don't count on you, little five, you tell me!"

"Master, I made a medicinal diet recipe based on the medicinal materials in our forest area. Please take a look." Xiao Wuzi took out a booklet.

Look, this is called a disciple, and you can be considered an evil disciple at best!

Li Hongbing glared at Sun Lianqian, who was teasing October, and took the menu and opened it.
