It rained continuously for three days and nights. On Saturday, I finally saw the long-awaited sun in the sky. None of the children at school have gone home this week, so Yang Bin doesn't need to spend the night in the forest anymore. In the morning, Yang Bin and Li Siqi hurried to the mayor's house. Yesterday, he and the old mayor had agreed on the phone that they would check out the new school site no matter whether it was windy, rainy or icy and snowy today. Although there is sunshine today, the autumn rain for several days has already turned the entire road into mud. It would definitely not work if we drove, so in the end everyone got on Uncle Ma's animal-drawn cart and slowly approached the place amidst the bumps. The journey of more than 20 kilometers did not waste much time. With the help of the animal-drawn cart, it only took a few hours. After getting off the animal-drawn cart, Yang Bin and the others got on a fishing boat that had been prepared, and then headed straight for their destination. The mountain city is very mountainous, and it is even more continuous when you get to the town. There is a small river in the town. The river is not wide. The narrowest part is only more than 40 meters, and the widest part is no more than 100 meters. The locals call it Yuzui River because it is only as wide as the fish's mouth. Although the river is not wide, there are sheer cliffs on both sides of the river. The cliffs are not only steep but also very high. Standing on the boat and looking up, you can barely see the top of the mountain. "Yang Bin, look! That stone is so majestic!" Li Siqi stood on the side of the ship, pointed at the stone opposite and shouted happily. After walking through layers of rivers, a huge gap suddenly appeared at the bend of the river. In the center of the gap stood a huge rock. The rock is rectangular, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, smooth and flat front and back, like a long sword standing upside down in the center of the water. Behind the rocks is a river with crystal clear water. If you look closely, you can see many fish swimming in the water. "Xiao Yang, this is it! Look at this stone, we call it Dingjiang Stone. No matter how hard it rains and how much water rises, this stone has never been completely submerged. At least I haven't seen it in all my years. Once." The old mayor explained to Yang Bin while holding his hand on the boulder in the river. "It's so majestic. This stone is probably more than sixty meters high!" Yang Bin looked up at the boulder and looked at it carefully and said. "Haha No one has measured the exact size, but it is indeed very high. If the name of the school is engraved on this stone and used as the school gate, it will definitely be a unique spectacle in the world." The old mayor said with a smile. Why he chose this place in the first place was because it was a big place, which fully met Yang Bin's requirements. The second is this stone. As he said, this stone is unique. If the school's name is engraved on it, the school will also become unique. "Don't say it yet, uncle, you are right!" Listening to the old mayor's words, Yang Bin continued to look at the stone in front of him. The more he looked at it, the more satisfied he felt, and the more he looked at it, the more magical it felt. "Don't just look at the stones, let me introduce to you the location here. It is located in the center of our town. In front is the Yuzui River. The mountain opposite is called Zitong Mountain, and our town is behind the mountain. The distance in a straight line is less than two kilometers. However, due to the rugged terrain, if you want to build a school, you can only build a new road and build a bridge on the opposite side of the mountain. Of course, you can also use the waterway to pass through this big rock and enter the place inside. . But the waterway is more dangerous, and it is difficult to ensure the safety of the students when the water surges in summer" The old mayor held Yang Bin by the hand and continued to introduce the surrounding terrain. "Well! This is an issue worth considering, but uncle, let's take a look inside first. I'm not sure yet whether to repair it or not." Yang Bin nodded. This stone made Yang Bin somewhat moved, but just Having a stone was not enough, he had to see the terrain inside before he could make a specific decision. ¡°Then let¡¯s take a look first and then talk!¡± The old mayor nodded in agreement. The fishing boat passed by the stone and entered the nearby tributary. The green river water had a cold feeling. The terrain slowly rises along with the river, and as the river slowly rises, it also slowly narrows. After about ten minutes of walking, the terrain in front suddenly opens up. On the endless plain, there are lush grass and dense trees everywhere. After stopping the boat and walking again, we saw a waterfall splashing in the distance, with a drop of 3,000 meters, which was very spectacular. A closer look shows the towering old trees and intertwined vines. The endless woods as far as the eye can see make people feel like they are in another time and space. "What a spectacular scene, Yang Bin, have we walked into an ancient forest?" Li Siqi exclaimed, her tender face showing great excitement. She has never seen such a spectacular and beautiful scene since she was a child. "Yes! It's such a big plain area, it's probably far more than six or seven hundred acres!" Yang Bin also sighed. "Haha, I don't know exactly how big this place is. It was an orchard when it was a collective. Later, because of the reform and opening up, people no longer paid attention to it, and no one took care of it, so it gradually became deserted. I'm still young. I've been here before, if it weren't for Xiao ??You asked me for land, and I almost forgot about this place. "The old mayor said with a smile. "This place is surrounded by mountains on three sides and adjacent to water on one side. It used to be an orchard, but later due to policy changes, people habitually went out to work, and gradually forgot about this place. Now after decades, The growth of trees makes the trees green and the grass grows. Of course, this does not mean that it is not conducive to agricultural development. It is just that the terrain here is dangerous and surrounded by cliffs on three sides and one side is surrounded by water. Therefore, even if someone thinks about it, it will increase production input. It will be given up due to various reasons such as cost. ¡°What a treasure! If floods and costs are not considered, it is definitely an excellent place to build a school. "Yang Bin exclaimed in admiration. Looking at this place, he couldn't help but think of Tao Yuanming's Peach Blossom Spring. When the forest ends and the water source is reached, there is a mountain. There is a small mouth on the mountain, as if there is light. So he abandoned the boat and entered through the mouth. It was extremely narrow at first, and only then could it pass people. After walking for dozens of steps, it suddenly became clear that the land was flat, with houses and fertile fields, beautiful ponds, and mulberry fields. Although there was nothing like the beauty of mulberry, bamboo, and fertile fields, it was still a paradise, with vast land, dense woods, and mountains and flowing water. , canyons, and rivers, all showing a peachland scenery: "Don't worry, the terrain here is at least a hundred meters higher than outside, and it will not be flooded even if there is a flood. "The old mayor said with certainty. He has lived in the town for decades and has never seen a flood that could submerge this place. Even the flood in 1997 only increased the height of the river here. Ten to twenty meters, to flood this place unless the Three Gorges Hydropower Station is placed upstream of the river "Uncle! If you sell all this place to me, how much will it cost? "Hearing what the old mayor said, Yang Bin felt a lot more at ease. The more he looked at this land, the more he liked it. The more he looked at it, the more he felt it was in line with his goals, so he asked directly. "This Xiao Yang, you have to think carefully! Although the terrain of this place is good, its transportation is a long-standing problem. It is not something that millions of dollars can help build here. You'd better think about it carefully. Although my uncle recommended such a place, you don't necessarily have to choose this place. After all, the investment cost is too high. "The old mayor dissuaded! This place is the best place in his mind, but he can't let Yang Bin spend money. Once he buys this land, the investment in building bridges and paving roads will exceed tens of millions. So In this case, it is better to choose another place. Although the area is not as big and the environment is not as good, it is better because it requires less investment and has convenient transportation. ¡°Uncle, just tell me boldly how much this land costs. Give me an accurate number so that I can be prepared. Although I don't have much money now, I still want to buy this land as a new campus in the future. "Yang Bin insisted, regardless of the amount of money. He believed what Erwa said. Money is not the most difficult thing in the system at all. As long as you want it, it will come rolling in. What's more, he now has two knowledges about making money. For jade appraisal and ceramic appraisal, as long as you take some time and look around carefully, I believe you will get unexpected results. ¡°Really want to buy it? "The old mayor looked at Yang Bin and emphasized again. "Yeah! I really want to buy it and I definitely want to buy it! It was a great opportunity for me, Yang Bin, to encounter this place. How could I give up! " Yang Bin nodded in affirmation. He looked at Li Siqi, who was a little excited next to him, and his thoughts became a little firmer. "Then if you really want to buy it, I can't stop you anymore. How about I go back to town and discuss it with them first, come up with an accurate area and accurate price, and then tell you, what do you think? Of course, we can't ask you for a high price, Xiao Yang. After all, you are contributing to our town! "The old mayor thought about it and said. No matter where Yang Bin builds a school, it is a great thing as long as he does not leave his own town. What's more, judging from the scale of Yang Bin's land acquisition, it is indispensable to make the right investment. If If we can use this school as a model, we might be able to introduce foreign investment and establish our own industrial park. ¡°That¡¯s okay! Then please uncle, please implement it as soon as possible, so that I can make plans early. After all, in such a big place, we have to plan what needs to be planned. It takes time to hire people to design, plan construction plans, etc. According to my expectations, the teaching building, dormitory building and office building here will be completed by the end of next year at the latest. It would be best to do it as quickly as possible. "Yang Bin nodded in agreement. What he needs most now is time and funds. Of course, the sooner the better when it comes to buying land. At least one less day of delay will give him one more day of opportunity. How many people are on this land? After walking around in a big circle, they finally reached one-third of the land. Along the way, they encountered many animals and abandoned fruit trees. Judging from the types of fruit trees, they were mainly peach trees, pear trees, and so on. Mainly chestnuts, of course, there are also some pine trees and miscellaneous trees mixed in from time to time. Due to lack of pruning for many years, many of these fruit trees have grown tall and large. If you can plan well, you may be able to make a tree.Come to Mr. ??'s Peach Blossom Island.
