Farming Space Makes Me Rich Novel - Chapter 577
Chapter 577: The Little Shepherd Boy
When the group heard that Xiao Lingyu owned the entire mountain range of trees, they were shocked.
“Wow, we’ve met a rich and beautiful boss.”
“Peach Blossom Beauty… uh, boss Xiao, let me ask you, other than planting peach trees and pear trees, what else have you planted on the mountain?”
Xiao Lingyu introduced, “There are a lot of them. For example, oranges, grapefruits, plums, persimmons, and so on. Basically, I’ve planted all the fruits here.
“And because of the climate, I’ve also specially used scientific expertise to plant some fruits that are unique to the north, such as apples, pears, hawthorn, and so on. When you guys go up the mountain later, you can take a look. However…”
Speaking up to this point, Xiao Lingyu paused for a moment and then said very seriously, “This place is an orchard, and the goal is to plant fruit trees. Also, there are some other crops planted under the fruit trees. I hope that you guys will be careful when you go up the mountain.
“If I find out that anyone is shaking the tree branches and trampling on the crops under their feet, then I’m sorry. I can only ask you to leave, and I’ll have to ask them to pay compensation!” She had to be clear. Otherwise, if these people came and went as they pleased, they might ruin everything in the orchard.
“Also, there are surveillance cameras everywhere in my mountains!” Xiao Lingyu added.
“Ha…” These tourists did not expect such a situation. But, it seemed to be reasonable.
Every tourist spot had cameras. Their main purpose was to ensure the safety of the tourists.
However, what surprised them was that this was a privately contracted mountain orchard. It had not yet been developed into a tourist destination, yet there were already surveillance cameras everywhere.
What these tourists didn’t know was that they had already been on camera once they stepped into Taoyuan Village. Of course, Xiao Lingyu wouldn’t be checking the cameras for no reason.
…
Xiao Lingyu brought these people to the mountain, but as soon as they entered, they immediately noticed a cable car platform.
Someone pointed at the platform and asked curiously, “Boss Xiao, is that… is that a cable car?”
Xiao Lingyu was stunned when she saw the cable car. She remembered Gong Tianhao had built that for her because it was inconvenient for her to go up the mountains when she was pregnant. However, after her birth, Xiao Lingyu always chose to walk up the mountain.
It was because whenever she saw the cable car, she would be reminded of the memories she shared with Gong Tianhao. She thought she had forgotten most of them, but at that moment, they all popped up.
“Boss Xiao, Boss Xiao…” The young woman, Ye Feifei, called out to Xiao Lingyu.
Xiao Lingyu came back to his senses and looked at Ye Feifei with confusion. “Yes?”
Ye Feifei asked, “Boss Xiao, we just want to ask, where does the cable car go to? Can we take the cable car?”
Xiao Lingyu said, “The cable car goes halfway up the mountain.” Because most of the fruit trees were planted halfway up the mountain.
“But I’m sorry. You can’t take the cable car.” Xiao Lingyu said. That was her and Gong Tianhao’s private memory. She didn’t want others to get involved.
“Why?” Ye Feifei asked unwillingly. Flowers were blooming everywhere here. If one were to take the cable car, the beautiful scenery would be even more amazing from the air.
Xiao Lingyu said seriously, “When I was pregnant, someone built the cable car. It involves my personal memory, so I won’t open it to the public.”
“Okay.” Ye Feifei nodded. Seeing that the boss was unwilling to open the cable car, she would not force it any further.
The group followed Xiao Lingyu up the mountain.
Along the way, Xiao Lingyu told them some things to take note of.
“I’ll say it again. You can look at the flowers and admire them, but please take good care of the plants and flowers here! If I find out that someone is deliberately causing trouble, then I won’t be polite.
“Alright, this is where we’ll part. I’m going to take a look elsewhere. Take your time to enjoy the flowers.”
After Xiao Lingyu left, the tourists blushed, especially the men. Their eyes lit up.
“Damn, this is the first time I’ve seen such a beautiful woman!”
“Me too. The most beautiful women I’ve seen in the past were those famous stars on TV. But the beauty of those famous stars was built with money.
“But Boss Xiao is different. She wasn’t even wearing any makeup. She is a natural and original beauty.”
“Boss Xiao’s skin is so fair. She looks so exquisite and fierce. She is really the Peach Blossom Beauty.”
“The peach blossoms are beautiful, and the beauty is even more beautiful!”
“If Boss Xiao decides to enter the entertainment business, she’ll easily outshine the actors and models!”
“Speaking of, maybe I should make her an offer, and I’ll be her manager!” Ye Lian smiled and said, “Coincidentally, my cousin runs an entertainment company.”
“You must be daydreaming. If Boss Xiao really wanted to act, she would have joined the industry a long time ago. Why would she stay in this mountain village?”
“The scenery here is beautiful, the flowers are beautiful, and the people are even more beautiful. I even want to stay here,” Ye Lian said as he looked in the direction where Xiao Lingyu had left.
On the other side, the female visitors immediately smiled, “Stop daydreaming.
“Didn’t you hear Boss Xiao say that someone built the cable car for her when she was pregnant?
“What does that mean? It means that she is already married and with children! Plus, think of things we’ve heard along the way. Boss Xiao has contracted a lot of lands, and she has a registered company. She isn’t short of money. Do you plan to seduce her with your male charm?”
“Boss Xiao is beautiful, and she has an impressive aura. She doesn’t appear like a village farmer.”
“What do you mean like that? Will farmers have their job written on their face?”
“Look at the lecherous and wretched expressions on your faces. All men are the same.”
“What are you talking about? What do you mean by lecherous and wretched expressions? We don’t agree. Everyone loves beautiful things. Can’t we be allowed to admire a beauty?”
“Of course, you can, but those looks in your eyes…”
“Enough. Why the need to quarrel?” An Xiaohui felt a conflict coming, so she immediately stepped forward to mediate, “We’ve already seen the Peach Blossom Beauty. So we should focus on admiring the peach blossom. Why should we argue?
“Don’t forget that we’re here as backpackers. We have to support each other.”
An Xiaohui reminded them. But in her heart, she muttered, ‘This beauty is indeed unusual!’ This was the first time they had argued as a group.
After An Xiaohui’s reminder, the group began to admire the beautiful scenery.
The peach blossoms had only been transplanted for half a year, so they weren’t very big.
Even with the water from the spiritual spring, the peach trees that were only half a year old were only about the size of three years old. They weren’t very tall or very big.
However, the entire mountain was densely planted with peach trees. The peach blossoms that bloomed were very beautiful. With a gentle breeze, the petals rained all over the mountain.
“Look, if I stand there and take a picture, will the effect be beautiful?” Ye Feifei suddenly saw a big rock.
“Eh, it’s really not bad. Come, let’s take a photo!” An Xiaohui said.
When the photo came out, it was really stunning.
“It’s really beautiful!” Ye Feifei looked at the photo on her phone and said with some self-indulgence, “This is the most beautiful picture I have of myself. I can use this as a screen saver.”
An Xiaohui’s picture was also very beautiful.
Since the mountain was so big, the group decided to split up. They went to explore in groups.
“Let’s go and look for other flowers.” After admiring the peach blossoms and taking a few pictures, Ye Feifei thought of what Xiao Lingyu had said about the other fruit trees and flowers. Her heart began to stir.
“Okay, let’s go!” An Xiaohui nodded and replied.
“Xiaohui, do you think Boss Xiao can sell all these fruits? Especially the peaches.
“The whole mountain is filled with them. Once they bear fruits, there will be at least tens of thousands of catties of them.” Ye Feifei said, “Who is she going to sell them to? Peaches are not like other fruits that have a long shelf life.
“Once a peach is plucked from the tree, they’ll grow worms in two days.”
An Xiaohui was a little speechless as she said, “Ye Feifei, why are you worried on behalf of the boss?”
“…” Ye Feifei said, “I’m just curious. Taoyuan Village is really going to get famous for its peaches.”
Before An Xiaohui came, she studied the local customs. She said, “I heard that the peaches grown in Taoyuan village are especially delicious. In the past, because this village was poor and the traffic was inconvenient, these peaches couldn’t be sold.
“But things have improved recently. Naturally, the bosses will come and buy them.”
Ye Feifei gave An Xiaohui a thumbs up and said, “Xiaohui, you’re really amazing. You did so much homework.”
An Xiaohui shrugged her shoulders and said, “It’s a habit. Every time I visit a place, I will do homework on the local customs. That way, I can enjoy myself better when I am there.”
There was another boy in An Xiaohui and Ye Feifei’s group. He was Li Jian. Technically, Li Jian was grabbed by Ye Feifei to be their photographer.
The group walked along a small mountain road. When they were about to reach the halfway point of the mountain, they saw a scene and were a little surprised.
“Xiaohui, Xiaohui, look. I am not seeing things, am I?” Ye Feifei excitedly grabbed An Xiaohui’s arm and kept shaking it.
An Xiaohui was calm. She looked at Ye Feifei with a puzzled face and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Ye Feifei pointed to a spot and said loudly, “Look, it’s a shepherd boy! Do you think he is the boy who has saved Lady Bai from the Tales of the White Snake?”
“…” An Xiaohui didn’t know how Ye Feifei made that leap. However, she still looked down in the direction Ye Feifei was pointing. Her eyes immediately revealed a hint of surprise.
Under a peach blossom tree not far away, a three or four-year-old child was riding on the back of a small yellow ox, and his expression was very calm.
“Is the little boy riding on the back of a cow?” An Xiaohui was worried. “Won’t it be dangerous?”
Li Jian, who was in charge of taking photos, “…”
“That child is so cute!” Ye Feifei said with a very excited expression, “I’ve never seen such a cute and beautiful child. Moreover, he’s riding on the back of a cow so handsomely. Xiaohui, let’s go take a look. I want to take a photo with him!”
Ye Feifei couldn’t help it. She loved children and beautiful things a lot.
The three of them soon approached the little shepherd boy.
Xiao Ling and Little Light were resting leisurely under the Peach Blossom Tree. After a moment, the man and the cow, oh no, the spirit and the cow, suddenly became alert.
They looked at the three new arrivals.
The eyes of the cow and the man were as wide as copper bells. There was confusion and sharpness in their eyes. They looked at the three intruders quietly and sharply.
Ye Feifei and the other two, “…” Why are they so guarded? We are not bad people!
“Little shepherd boy, hello!” Ye Feifei began to greet Xiao Ling. As for Little Light, she ignored him. After all, he was just a cow.
Xiao Ling grabbed Xiao Hua’s cow hair and glanced at them with a sharp gaze before asking in a stern voice, “Who are you?”
Xiao Ling had escaped from the space because his master’s son had gone on a trip with his grandmother to visit the relatives.
Ever since Xiao Tong could stay in the farming space, he spent his time training and teasing Xiao Ling. Xiao Ling’s days were long and hard. He felt like crying when he thought about the challenges and trials he had and would face.
Finally, he had a day off, but he encountered these strange people.
Ye Feifei noticed that the child’s face was tense, and her maternal instinct kicked in. She almost went forward to pinch his cheek.
An Xiaohui said, “We’re backpackers from outside…”
“Backpackers?” Xiao Ling frowned. “What is that?”
“Uh, it’s a tourist who travels by himself!” An Xiaohui gave a general explanation.
“What is a tourist?”
An Xiaohui and the other two, “…”
Well, a three-year-old probably wouldn’t know that much.
“Little shepherd boy, a tourist is…” Ye Feifei was about to explain when Xiao Ling cut in, “What is a little shepherd boy?”
Ye Feifei and the other two, “…”
