(As a reader asked for the QQ group number, here it is: Huanxi's Farm: 176338734)
Finally, Lei Huanxi obtained the contract for Fairy Mountain, taking another step toward his plan. After the contract was signed, Lei Huanxi quickly entered Fairy Mountain again. The wind felt a bit chilly, and the small trees and wild grass swayed with it. This feeling was really pleasant for Lei Huanxi.
Various small stones of different shapes were scattered everywhere. Perhaps to people like Xu Cunzhang, these stones were worthless, but to Lei Huanxi, they were the most precious wealth. The only thing left to wait for was how Zhu Guoxu would package and develop these stones.
He could build a few small houses here... dig a pond here... and here, here...
In Lei Huanxi's mind, he had already quietly made an overall plan for Fairy Mountain. Perhaps others might think it was too early, but as Mo Fatty said, Lei Huanxi thought further ahead.
A long time ago, there were some venomous snakes in Fairy Mountain, which had even bitten a few mischievous children. At that time, the conditions were poor, and one child even lost his life due to lack of timely treatment. Therefore, the adults in Xiantao Village always forbade their children from going too deep into Fairy Mountain.
However, in recent years, there have been few reports of snake bites.
Are there still venomous snakes in Fairy Mountain?
This is a major issue related to future development and tourist safety. Lei Huanxi decided to go deeper to find out this seemingly minor but potentially serious problem.
The deeper he went, the more eerie it felt, perhaps because no one had entered for a long time. The lack of human presence always created such a situation.
He picked up a few stones from the ground, which were somewhat unique, but the patterns were blurry and hard to discern without careful observation.
Such stones had no value on their own, but he wondered if they would have a good effect when placed with Xiao Pang.
Suddenly, a black shadow flashed in front of him, startling Lei Huanxi. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a wild cat. Its green eyes stared coldly at Lei Huanxi, unafraid of humans. After a while, it strutted away and disappeared from sight.
Fairy Mountain was not very large, and after walking for a while, there was no path to continue. Seeing that it was still early, he decided to climb up the mountain.
He did not find any venomous snakes, not even a common garter snake, which reassured him. At least he didn't have to worry about the safety of future tourists in this regard.
The mountain was not very high. As he climbed, he saw stones scattered everywhere. To others, they were just ordinary stones, but to Lei Huanxi, they were valuable treasures.
When he reached the top, the view was suddenly clear, presenting a completely different world from the bottom.
A cool breeze blew, but there was no eerie feeling. Instead, it made him want to take off his shirt and take a deep breath of fresh air. If he placed a table and a teapot here and invited a few friends, they could talk for a whole day and night without getting bored.
What caught Lei Huanxi's eye the most were the various stones of different sizes scattered on the top of the mountain. Some were over a meter tall, with ancient and simple shapes, resembling a fairy who had stood on the mountain for thousands of years. Others were lying stones, two of which faced each other, like two playful cats...
For so many years, no one in Xiantao Village had ever discovered these strange stones on the mountain top that could be admired for a long time.
These are not ordinary stones; they are beautiful landscapes that attract tourists to linger and enjoy.
Lei Huanxi almost imagined the scene of a large number of tourists taking photos and chatting excitedly in front of these strange stones.
Yes, these strange stones should be given some beautiful legends.
For example, the stone that looks like a fairy... How did Xiantao Village get its name? The peaches from the Heavenly Peach Garden fell to earth...
So, Tai Bai Jin Xing descended to the mortal world to find the peaches that did not belong to ordinary humans, but was attracted by the beauty of Xiantao Village and left his avatar here...
Those two playful cats?
Yes, they are Tai Bai Jin Xing's pets...
Lei Huanxi suddenly realized how rich his imagination was.
However, he couldn't do it alone; he needed a team to handle such a project.
But where could he find such a team?
Another important issue was that while the scenery on the mountain was beautiful, the area below was somewhat eerie.
Tourists are very practical; if their first impression is bad, how many would still be interested in climbing to the top?
Xiao Pang? Could Xiao Pang change the appearance of Fairy Mountain in a short time?
It seemed difficult.
He could create a ten-acre fish pond because water was his domain. But on the mountain? Did Xiao Pang still have such power?
Moreover, for the entire Fairy Mountain...
Also, once Xiao Pang exhaled the dragon saliva, it would consume a lot of spiritual energy, which needed to be replenished by jade. This was a major problem that always troubled Lei Huanxi.
He couldn't find enough jade in a short time to supply Xiao Pang.
He temporarily put this thought aside... no matter what, he had to find jade to maintain Xiao Pang's spiritual energy first.
When he came out of Fairy Mountain, it was already evening, and his stomach was growling. He was too lazy to go home and cook, so he decided to go to Sister Lu's house for dinner.
He took a detour to the fish pond and saw Ye Tianlong holding a sweet potato, squatting by the pond and eating it. Next to him was a large teacup. He took a bite of the sweet potato and sipped from the teacup.
"Brother Ye, you're eating this?"
"Living alone, I don't feel like cooking." Ye Tianlong stood up and stretched.
"Let's catch two fish and go to Sister Lu's house for dinner."
"Okay, wait a moment." Ye Tianlong was quick, and soon caught two black fish.
These two black fish were fat and large, indicating that they had not been short of food.
"They've eaten so many of my fish and shrimp; today they will pay with their blood." Ye Tianlong even managed to say a joke.
As they approached Sister Lu's house, the smell of meat wafted out.
Lei Huanxi swallowed a big mouthful of saliva: "Sister Lu, Sister Lu, is there any food?"
"Yes." Before Sister Lu could answer, her husband Sun Shuigen's voice came: "There's meat, and I've even killed a chicken. I was just about to ask my wife to call you. Come in and have a drink."
Together with Ye Tianlong, they entered and saw a large pot of braised pork and a plate of fragrant chicken.
"Brother Shui, you're living well." Lei Huanxi was already hungry and grabbed a piece of meat to eat. Seeing Sister Lu come out of the kitchen, he quickly handed her the two fish: "Sister Lu, one for soup, one for slicing."
"Okay, I know. You two drink first." Sister Lu happily took the fish back to the kitchen.
"Brother Shui, it's not the weekend today, why are you at home?" Lei Huanxi, not treating himself as a guest, picked up the wine bottle and poured a bowl for Ye Tianlong and then for himself.
Sun Shuigen looked excited: "Isn't the village raising funds? I took two days off to come back. Brother Huanxi, we're really going to get rich this time. Brother Tianlong, why aren't you investing?"
"I don't have money," Ye Tianlong said gloomily. "And I don't believe in it. How can money just fall from the sky?"
Hearing about the investment from Er Fatty again, Lei Huanxi felt a bit frustrated.
Ye Tianlong was right; money doesn't fall from the sky. But what could he say? The villagers of Xiantao Village were all waiting to get rich.
Sun Shuigen gave Ye Tianlong a cigarette, lit one for himself, and took a satisfying puff: "Brother Huanxi, how much do I earn by working hard in the factory for a month? In Er Fatty's place, I might earn it in a few hours. Once we get rich this time, I'll quit my job
