Dad's Pastoral Life

Chapter 203 Skating
Cheng He figured out something on the Internet about that stone.

The stone was brought back from the Yunxiao Mountains, and he put it in the yard.

The small courtyard, which already has an artistic atmosphere, doesn't seem to violate the harmony with a stone.Well, he felt that his artistic cells seemed to have cultivated a little bit.

Art is such a good thing.

Although there is no name for it, it is comfortable to look at.

These days, there are still many people who have seen pictures of big star Zheng Xiaoying on the Internet, and come here to take pictures because of the name.

So far, because Peach Blossom Village has not been rebuilt yet, Cheng He has not started charging. He just wants more people to know about Peach Blossom Village.

He was just worried that the attention he had received before him would fade away after the official opening of the Taohua Village tourism project.

At that time, it will take great efforts to build popularity.

It's a pity that the heat brought by the previous stars was wasted in vain.

But there is no way, how can there be such a coincidence in the world?

In fact, it's always a good thing to have a wave of attention from previous stars.At least when the time comes to promote it, it won't start from scratch.

Cheng He estimated that the money from the sale of this stone should be used for publicity.

Don't know what's in there.

He followed some strange stone forums on the Internet, and told Lao Xia about the stone.

Lao Xia was very surprised by Cheng He's luck. He just sold a meteorite earlier, and now he got a big one?

He was a little disbelieving, and said, "How can you be sure that there is something in the stone?"

Of course, he also knows something about stone gambling.After all, he also collected a few meteorites.Not big, but not cheap either.

Gambling stones, in the eyes of many people, is like gambling, but it has to be admitted that there is still a technical component in it.

Why is Cheng He so sure that there is something in the stone?
I heard that he is not small, more than 70 kilograms.If there is something, I will send another sum.

Cheng He said: "I don't know much about betting on stones, I just guessed."

Lao Xia thought for a while and said, "Since it's a wild guess, if you're not afraid of trouble, you can drag the stone to Hualin Temple first. This is a place I know. There are many jade markets and some processing workshops there. Ask them to cut the stone for you."

"Which Hualin Temple?"

"It's not in our province. I'll send you an address later." Lao Xia said.

After hanging up the phone, Cheng He soon received the address from Lao Xia.

It is a street in the next province.

Judging from what Baidu Encyclopedia said, there used to be an ancient temple there, which later became famous for selling jade wares in a nearby street.

From the previous dynasty to the present, that street has been operating jade for more than 200 years, which is considered a time-honored brand.

However, it is not a place where local tyrants gather and gamble stones with high prices as in the novel, but mainly produces and sells finished jade articles.

The so-called gold has a price and jade is priceless, and the price of precious jade will be astonishingly high.However, there are also a large number of ordinary goods here, and the prices are naturally uneven.

It depends on the buyer's own vision and luck.

Moreover, with the development of the Internet, the shops on this street have also opened many online shops in recent years, with asking prices ranging from tens of yuan to tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands, all of which are available online.

Cheng He actually didn't know these things.Mainly after searching on the Internet, many such online stores came up immediately, so I naturally knew it.

I have heard people talk about "A-grade and B-grade jade" before. The grades are different, and the price difference is very large. People are often fooled. It depends on everyone's eyesight.

He never thought that one day he would go to the jade market.

However, he was not looking for jade, but to dissect stones.

Maybe, after dissecting the stone, you will be able to meet a buyer.Because in such a place, it is estimated that there are also various types of people who purchase jade.

In terms of buying and selling, Cheng He has nothing to worry about. There have been many treasure transactions, and this stone is just one of them.

He planned to pass the New Year before preparing for jade.It's almost Chinese New Year now, and there must be no good trading market.

After that, Cheng He was really free.

The recruitment of workers in the village will almost have to wait until after the Chinese New Year; in addition, the reconstruction of the village, planting on hilltops, etc., will have to wait until the Chinese New Year is over.

There is another thing that he really wants to do, that is artificial cultivation of matsutake, but for the time being, he can only think about it.Right now he doesn't have a good solution.

Although he transplanted Su Lan alive, Matsutake and Su Lan are different after all.

More on that later.

After all, he really had nothing to do.

In addition to cooking and making some snacks, the most I can do is go for a stroll in the mountains.

Before Sunday, another snow fell.

This snow was much heavier than last time, and the snow in the yard was almost as high as knees.

Then the school used a mobile phone to notify me that I don’t have to go to school today—the weather forecast said that the snow will fall for three more days, so let’s forget about the winter vacation.

Kindergarten doesn't have any final exams anyway, let's talk about it next year.

Cheng Xinxin was so happy to see such thick snow that she almost jumped into the snow.

Cheng He was going to shovel a way out of the snow in the yard, but the little girl stopped him repeatedly: "Dad, don't shovel, don't shovel."

It's so thick, isn't it beautiful?
The big yellow dog was also very happy, jumping around in the snow.

Cheng He picked up a handful of snow, rubbed it into a lump, and threw it at the big yellow dog.The big yellow dog jumped up and caught it with his mouth, but with too much force, the snow was crushed.

The little girl laughed happily when she saw it, and also learned to throw the big yellow dog with the snow lump.

As a result, the snow lump she pinched was too loose, and it fell apart before it reached the dog.

Cheng He said, "Honey, let's make a snowman?"

"Okay!" The little girl agreed loudly, eager to try.

There are snowmen in the cartoon.

It is very simple to make a snowman, just rub a snow dumpling and roll it in the yard.Roll into a big lump, which can be used as a body.

However, Cheng He put a little effort into making this snowman wearing a skirt, just like the illustrations in Cheng Xinxin's books.

Anyway, the snow was relatively thick, so he made a snowman taller than his daughter.

In order to try to be true, he also put a discarded apron and a hat on the snowman.Now the little girl was even happier, and she refused to leave around the snowman.

The little girl took the snowman as her toy, whispered to the snowman, and even kissed it on the face.

Then she said loudly, "Dad, it's so cold."

Cheng He laughed loudly, the kiss is a snowman, can it not be iced?
A little snowman can make her happy like this.Cheng He found that he felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart.

That's the good thing about being young.When you grow up, you don't want these anymore.

A child outside the yard shouted: "Xinxin, come out to play..."

It was Cheng Ximei's voice again.

The little girl said loudly: "Xiaomei, come here, my father built a snowman, take a look..."

Cheng Ximei ran over and immediately exclaimed: "Wow, what a big snowman, so beautiful..."

The snowmen made by other people are all men.This snowman is a woman, which makes her gain knowledge.

As a result, she also ran over, and the two little girls talked to the snowman.

After playing for a while, Cheng Ximei suddenly remembered that she came to play with Cheng Xinxin.So she said again: "Xinxin, my brother and the others went skating over there, are you going?"

"What kind of ice skating?" Cheng Xinxin blinked her eyes and asked.

"It's the ice in the pond." Cheng Ximei said.

Then he dragged Cheng Xinxin to run outside.

Several large ponds near Taohua Village have frozen over, and now it's time for ice skating.The boys have all gone.

It is said to be a pond, but the area is actually not small, and it is enough for children to play.

There is nothing special about skating. You can slip on the ice with any shoes you wear, and you will not be able to stand if you are not careful.

But children are like that, the more unstable they are, the more fun they find.

Cheng He was afraid that something would happen, so he followed.

The snow was heavy this time, and the ice on the water was thick enough to stand on it without breaking.

Several boys have already slipped on it.One by one stood on the ice like a tumbler, stumbling around, and then we saw who could last longer.

If one fell, the rest would laugh.

Sometimes when I see someone standing still, I deliberately run up to him and make a face, so that he can't hold on and starts to stagger.

This is not a playground for spending money, but it can also make them happy for a while.

Cheng He stood by and didn't go down. Seeing these innocent children, he couldn't help laughing.

Cheng Ximei's older brother Cheng Zhizhuo played for a while, probably because of the pain from the fall, so he ran to the shore to rest and catch his breath.

Cheng He asked him: "Xiao Zhuo, your parents haven't come back yet?"

"Not yet, they said there are still a few days." Cheng Zhizhuo replied.

His parents are working outside, and it will take a few days before they can come back for the New Year.

　　In addition, I’m sorry, I’ve revised it slightly above. The money given to the bamboo weaving industry to advertise in the United States is considered as a loan to the bamboo weaving industry. When the American market grows bigger and profits are made, it will be deducted and returned. (In Chapter 192. I didn’t think carefully when I wrote it at the time. Some people may have given up supporting me after seeing it. Thank you for still supporting me! I... am very grateful!)
