Chapter five hundred and twentieth the sword hidden in the wood(1/2)

Linshan Village used to be quite large, with more than 200 households. Later, due to the official road infrastructure project, more and more villagers went out to work. Those with some ability settled in big cities, while those with no ability returned to their hometowns and worked in the town.

Buying a house in the city or in the county to settle down is also to provide a better education for the children.

Nowadays, the people left in that village are all old people who are used to the simple and peaceful life in the countryside and are not willing to stay in the birdcage all day. But every year during the Spring Festival, unless there are no old people or children at home, they will basically go back

Celebrate the festival at an old house in the countryside.

A luxury motorcade came to Linshan Village today. Led by Huang Zhi's Mercedes-Benz, it slowly stopped on the side of the road in front of a two-story building. Huang Zhi's parents and two elderly people in their seventies were all looking forward to it.

, many people in the village also came out to watch. Those young people were somewhat knowledgeable. When they saw the luxury cars, they immediately knew that a big shot had come to the village.

When Li Mo saw elder Huang Zhi coming out to greet them, he quickly got out of the car and came forward to meet them. Qin Sirui and Liu Yingying wore masks on their faces, so it could only be seen that they were very tall, and they were guessed to be beauties.

Brown Bear took out several boxes of famous cigarettes from the carriage. Everyone present was given a pack, and the children got chocolates.

"Uncle Huang, we are going to be bothering you for a few days."

"It's too late to welcome our whole family, so there's no way to complain about it. It's just that we rural people are more casual and eat simple meals. I'm afraid it won't be to your liking, Mr. Li."

"We are not that pretentious. Compared with 20 years ago, the current standards of modest meals have been improved by several levels."

"Mr. Li, please, let's sit in the room."

Brown Bear and the others did not follow. If all ten of them followed, the room would definitely seem crowded.

"Li Mo, these are the best buds that my dad specially found on the market. How do you think they look?"

Huang Zhi took out a small handful of dry green buds from a simple transparent bag. Li Mo picked up some and smelled it, and then said: "Is there a mountain spring?"

"Yes, I brought it back from the nearby mountains."

"Don't rush to brew the water after it boils. Let it boil in the pot for a while."

Huang Zhi nodded when he heard this, filled half the pot with a stainless steel pot and put it on the charcoal stove to burn it.

"Mr. Li, I was chatting with my neighbor in the village a few days ago and accidentally let it slip that a big investor was interested in our unnamed tea and would come to the village to inspect it in a few days. Unexpectedly, the news spread quickly.

In the town, several leaders came over yesterday and wanted to see you.

I wonder if this troubles you?" Huang Zhi's father was a little uneasy. He knew everything about Li Mo from his son. Although his son didn't reveal much, looking at his current achievements, it was clear that

You can imagine how strong Li Mo is.

"Dad, I haven't even said a word about this yet, how can you say it casually?"

Huang Zhi was a little anxious.

"It doesn't matter. If they want to come, just talk to Huang Zhi. From now on, this matter will be under his control, but it will be more difficult if there are too many things."

"Li Mo, I don't understand the tea market at all. If you put me in charge of this matter, I can't do anything about it."

"You have to learn from me. If you don't understand, why don't you let someone who understands do it? You also know Niu Sanpang. His wife is a famous tea and wine chain store, and she knows the rules very well. All we need here is funds.

Once it is in place, the project can be launched immediately. The channels have already been laid out, and with our own connections, this unknown tea will soon become an upstart among teas, of course on the premise of quality assurance."

After hearing these words, Huang Zhi seemed to have a new world opened before his eyes.

"The water is boiling."

The water boiled in the pot for thirty seconds before Huang Zhi lifted it up and poured it into the cup. Immediately, a refreshing aroma of tea rose up and became stronger and stronger. The buds stretched out under the boiling water.

One tooth and three leaves.

“What a fragrant tea.”

Qin Sirui could smell the tea even while wearing a mask, let alone other people in the room.

"The aroma of tea is so strong." Huang Zhi was also surprised. He had been drinking this kind of tea since he was a child, but he never knew that the top quality unnamed tea could be so good. Since the development of the country, famous teas have been drunk a lot, so

When I smell the fragrance of Wuming Tea, I immediately know that as long as Wuming Tea can gain a reputation, its value is not at all inferior to those of Longjing Biluochun.

After brewing for about two minutes, Li Mo picked up the tea cup and took a closer look at the color of the soup and the unfolded tea leaves.

"Huang Zhi, please contact Xu Jiaxin and ask her to arrange for two masters of tea frying to try it. I estimate that the quality of this tea can be improved to another level. We must seize the first batch of Yuqian tea and Mingming tea after the new year.

Tea first, I’ll make the packaging more distinctive later. I’ll use the first batch to give to my elders.”

"Okay, I'll take care of this."

Li Mo has almost paved the road in advance. If he fails to do this, he will have no shame in staying in the group anymore.

"Huang Zhi, this village has a history of many years. Is there anything special about it?"

"Now everyone who can go out to work has gone out, and the houses have not been lived in for more than a few days all year round, so they look dilapidated and many houses have become dilapidated. It is because of this that the officials plan to demolish this place uniformly and then transform it into farmland.

Contracted out. There is nothing to see. Only a few large fish ponds nearby will be released for fishing at the end of the year. At that time, many people from all over the country will come to watch, which is quite lively."

"The history of our village is almost a hundred years old. A few years ago, the officials wanted to transform this place into an ancient village tourist attraction. Later, they investigated and found that it lacked some of the unique characteristics of the place, so the matter was shelved.

Nowadays, the most famous thing in this village is the Dai Clan Ancestral Hall. Now there is only a shell and skeleton left. People who don’t know better think it is a dilapidated building.”

"Dai Laoba took the money and didn't come back to repair it?"

"I heard from people in the village that they haven't seen him come back." Huang Zhi's father said helplessly, "I guess he used it to gamble again, or to find a woman."

Li Mo picked up the tea cup and took a few sips. It was very good.

"Anyway, we have nothing to do. Let's go out for a walk. It's freezing cold and snowy in the north, but in the south the temperature is much higher."

"Okay, I'll walk around with you."

A few people walked outside, and the villagers greeted them warmly. Of course they knew Huang Zhi. Who didn't know that he had made a fortune outside and became a billionaire. As long as someone from their family returned to the village, people in the town and even the county would

Everyone here comes to visit.

"Yingying, do you still remember when I was a child and I went to the countryside with you and my master and my wife to celebrate the New Year? At that time, I thought the countryside was much more fun than the city. There were so many children, and they would go to more than a dozen houses to have a meal and a bowl. Time.

It goes by so fast, more than ten years have passed in a flash.”

"We've all grown up."

Liu Yingying also fell into memories, with a sweet smile on her lips.

"Our base camp is in Yanjiao. I am thinking about buying a piece of land in Yanjiao when I return to Kyoto. I will build a Soviet-style garden there, dig fish ponds, and plant vegetable orchards. I can enjoy the quietness away from the hustle and bustle of the city.

While living, you can always integrate into an international metropolis like Kyoto."

"This is a good idea, but the land there may not be easy to buy." Huang Zhi said this, then he thought of something and laughed at himself, "Of course when it comes to you, these things don't matter. Li Mo, look over there

, which is Dai’s former ancestral hall.”

Dai's Ancestral Hall is built in the middle of the village. It looks like a three-room building from a distance, but the door is wider. There is a plaque on the door with the four characters "Dai's Ancestral Hall" engraved on it. Over the years, that building has

The plaque has been riddled with moth-eaten holes and is also covered with cracks, ready to fall off at any time.

Li Mo walked to the ancestral hall. The roof had basically lost its function of keeping out wind and rain, and there were piles of empty things inside. There were also several large cracks in the wall of the ancestral hall, and it looked like it would collapse at any time if it was not demolished.

"You guys stand outside and I'll go in and take a look."

Qin Sirui and Liu Yingying both knew what he was thinking, so they did not follow him in. Instead, they chatted quietly with Huang Zhi outside.

Li Mo walked into the ancestral hall. There was nothing to see in the ancestral hall. The only thing that caught his attention were the four pillars.

The pillars are made of cement. Each one is very thick and requires two adults to work together. The four pillars occupy the four corners and become the pillars of the ancestral hall. The surface of the cement pillars has been painted several times, but it has peeled off now.

It's almost done, revealing the original mottled cement color.

"Am I being paranoid?"

Li Mo used his special pupils to see through the ancestral hall. He used to dig three feet into the ground, but now he saw through three meters. No abnormality appeared. Then he scanned the surroundings one by one. Unfortunately, the brick wall was just a brick wall, and there was no mezzanine.

and so on.

With the idea of ​​leaving no inch behind, Li Mo finally looked at the four most conspicuous cement pillars. There was nothing abnormal about the first one, and there was nothing abnormal about the second one, but when it came to the third one, Li Mo's eyes suddenly penetrated

Entering, he saw something else in the middle of the cement pillar, a round piece of wood, about one and a half meters long.

There was a piece of wood hidden in the cement pillar. This situation seemed a little different. As Li Mo's thoughts came to his mind, his strange eyes penetrated inside again, and then a dragon suddenly appeared in the world in front of him.

That's a five-clawed dragon.

Li Mo's face was stunned for a moment, and then he saw a gray halo transmitting through it, forming a circle of light that continued to spread. These haloes were very different from the gray halo he had seen before, because he vaguely saw the fluctuations in the

There seems to be a five-clawed dragon swimming in the aperture.

That giant dragon was full of domineering power that arrogated the world, and reached the top. It also seemed to be full of boundless sharp energy, and the whole world surrendered under its claws.

Li Mo clenched his fists and made a gurgling sound. He closed his eyes for five seconds and then opened them again. This time, the world in front of him was still gray, but without the giant dragon. It was like he was hallucinating just now.

What shines through the gray halo is a sword hidden in a wooden box.

What sword is that?

It actually made him hallucinate the first time he saw it.

Moreover, the sword was placed in a sword box, and the sword box was hidden in a log. Finally, the log was poured into a cement pillar, standing quietly in this dilapidated ancestral hall that was about to collapse at any time.

"Xiao Mo."

Qin Sirui called him outside.

Li Mo turned his head and scanned the last cement pillar with his strange eyes, but there was no response at all. He heard the footsteps coming in, turned around and said, "It's dangerous here, it's going to collapse at any time, we'd better go out."

Bar."
