Chapter 118 Death sentence

Under the guidance of Liang Jianzhong, the group went downstairs and got on the car.

Zhang Hao, Liang Jianzhong, and Li Siyu sat together in the same car.

Village Chief Zhao built a car alone.

As time goes by, the two Maybaches quickly drove to the Botanical Garden of Yaqian Town.

This is a tourist attraction in Yaqian Town, with a large number of trees planted in it, including many rare trees.

Get off the car.

Zhang Hao was immediately attracted by an ancient tree. It was not that the ancient tree was so eye-catching, but simply because the ancient tree was surrounded by blockages, and there were also many people like staff who were doing these things around the ancient tree.

On the periphery of the ancient tree, Mayor Zhou was standing there, with his hands behind his back, and he could not see his face.

"Mayor Zhou." Liang Jianzhong said hello with a smile on his face, leaning on his crutches.

Mayor Zhou then turned his head and looked at the group with a little surprise.

Liang Jianzhong came forward with a few people.

Liang Jianzhong immediately introduced: "This is the village chief of Zhaojia Village."

Village Chief Zhao seized the opportunity and stepped forward and shook hands enthusiastically: "Mayor Zhou, I saw you when I came to the town for a meeting last time."

Mayor Zhou nodded, with a smile on his face, and his hands were held together: "Hello, Village Chief Zhao, Hello, Chairman Liang has already explained to me about the road construction in Zhaojia Village. The process is in progress. As long as the process is over, I will sign a letter. "

"It is a good thing to build roads in Zhaojia Village. In this way, the agricultural and sideline products in the village can be walked out of the village through the repaired roads and come to the town. This is even more good for the big guys in the village..."

"It takes about two days at most. The road construction in Zhaojia Village can be put on the agenda." He added.

Village Chief Zhao looked happy.

To be honest, he has never seen such a fast efficiency. In the past, things like the village needs to discuss first, then report to the town, and then take various processes. It is normal to delay it for a year or two.

It only takes two days for Chairman Liang to intervene.

I have to say that with these big names on the side, you can do things quickly.

Of course, he could see that all this was Zhang Hao's credit. Without Zhang Hao, not to mention the approval so quickly, the road construction in Zhaojia Village would be impossible, and he would not have the chance to meet a big entrepreneur like Liang Jianzhong, let alone communicate with the mayor.

Then, Village Chief Zhao said a lot of words of thanks, and the communication between the few people came to an end for the time being.

Zhang Hao came here just to make a move. He didn't care about this matter at first, but now he is curious about the ancient tree surrounded.

The ancient trees that needed three people to embrace were covering the sky and the sun were lush. The branches and leaves were as lush as a huge umbrella. The sunlight shone on the soil through the gaps between the branches and leaves, as if adding a trace of vicissitudes and the traces of time.

When his eyes gathered, Zhang Hao found that the bark of the ancient tree was gray, the branches were brown, the leaves were oval, and they were thick like paper. The most important thing was that some of the leaves of the ancient tree had yellowish yellow. Logically speaking, it was spring now, so it shouldn't have been like this.

There is something wrong with this tree.

"Mayor Zhou, this tree?" He seized the opportunity and asked in time.

Mayor Zhou turned his head and looked at the ancient tree, shook his head and smiled helplessly, "Brother Zhang, I also saw that this tree may have some problems."

"Something is wrong?" Zhang Hao was a little surprised.

Liang Jianzhong stepped forward with a cane and sighed: "Brother Zhang, do you know what kind of tree this tree is?"

"Old Master Liang can help me with answers?" Zhang Hao said.

Mayor Zhou said: "This tree is called Putuo hornbeam, which is a precious tree species. Currently, there are only two left in the world. The tree located in Yaqian Town is the longest tree and has a history of nearly a thousand years."

Zhang Hao suddenly realized when he heard this, and then he remembered that he had heard of this tree before.

When he was a child, he heard his father say that there is an ancient tree in Yaqian Town, which has a history of nearly a thousand years. At that time, he wanted to come and see it, but because the distance is not far, he could see it at any time, and he thought about the same thing when he saw it. Over time, he forgot it.

This situation is very common. It is usually a tourist attraction in your own city, but locals may not have been there.

And today, can this wish be fulfilled?

"I heard of this tree when I was a child, and I always wanted to come and see it. Today I got what I want." Zhang Hao smiled.

As he spoke, he looked around again and had to say that the plan for this botanical garden was pretty good.

This ancient tree was opened separately. There were no trees within nearly 50 meters around. They were all square bricks for people to trample. Not far away, there was a sparse birch forest and a purple sea of ​​flowers, which was in its lush time.

Li Siyu listened silently, and also looked at this ancient tree with a history of nearly a thousand years, and became a god.

Mayor Zhou shook his head: "Oh, look more, Brother Zhang, maybe I won't see it in the future."

"Why do you say that?" Zhang Hao asked again.

Mayor Zhou looked melancholy, and there seemed to be helpless and disappointed in his eyes, "You also saw that it was spring, but the leaves of this tree were already withered and yellow. After we noticed this situation, we immediately reported to the relevant departments. After seeing the relevant experts from the relevant departments, they said nothing and notified the provincial experts, asking me to see, this tree may...ah."

"What if this is, what if this tree is really dead!"

Previously, when an old leader came to inspect, he passed by and said that this tree is very good and he liked it very much. He also said that when he was a child, he often played with friends under this tree. Now, he is very happy to see that he is raised so well.

What Zhou Ran knew was that the old leader walked out of this town. After being promoted, he returned to his hometown and returned to the tree he played with when he was a child. He naturally felt very intimate. Later, he learned that when the old leader was transferred to the city, he came to the front of the tree and said that this tree is very important and must be taken care of carefully and not be careless.

And according to reliable information, he learned that the old leader was going to come back to the town in seven days. The town had already made complete preparations for this matter, but there was only a problem with the tree. If the old leader came back and saw that the tree had withered, he would not be able to explain it!

This matter is related to his career, so how could he not care about it?

But now, it’s useless to care about it.

Zhang Hao nodded.

It can be seen that the leaves of this tree have yellowed yellow in spring is a bad sign. After the experts came to see it, they immediately reported to the provincial experts. This behavior alone can also show that this matter is extraordinary.

It’s not a reason why Mayor Zhou thought so, if he had thought so too.

Just as thoughts are flying.

squeak.

Accompanied by the sound of brakes, everyone present looked at each other.

Two Red Flag business cars were parked behind Maybach cars.

Immediately afterwards, several elderly men who were well-dressed but different, or middle-aged men who came to the car.

Seeing this, Mayor Zhou immediately went up to meet him and shouted: "Are you experts from the province? Welcome, I am Zhou Ran, the mayor of Yaqian Town."

Walking in the front was an old man with wrinkles and half-white hair, Professor Liu Hanzhong, a botanist in the province.

Behind them were also provincial experts, including geologist Professor Wang Jinhai, and Professor Qian Kun, who is also a botanist. The rest were their apprentices.

"Hello, Mayor Zhou." Liu Hanzhong nodded, saying hello, and then introduced: "This is a professor of geology in the province and Professor Wang Jinhai."

Wang Jinhai pushed the black frame on the bridge of his nose and smiled and signaled.

"This is a professor of botany and Professor Qian Kun."

Qian Kun nodded with a stern face.

Mayor Zhou greeted him with a smile.

"Master Zhou, let's go and take a look at the Putuo hornbeam first." Liu Hanzhong said in a solemn voice.

Mayor Zhou nodded and pointed his hand and said, "Please come with me..."

...

Not far away.

Liang Jianzhong, Zhang Hao, Li Siyu, and village chief Zhao stopped in place and looked over there.

"Mr. Liang, that should be what Mayor Zhou said, an expert from the province, right?" Zhang Hao asked curiously.

Liang Jianzhong smiled: "It should be."

Then, he turned his head and looked at the Putuo hornbeam: "Indeed, there are only two left in the world, and it is the oldest ancient tree. It is normal for the provincial experts to alarm. After all, this is a rare species."

"Just like the "traveling ginseng" you caught for me this time, it is also a rare thing, Brother Zhang." He said with a smile.

When Li Siyu heard this, she was stunned. She turned her head and her eyes shone brightly, as if she had grasped some key information.

"Walking on the mountain ginseng"?

Yesterday, Zhang Hao went to the mountains to find this old man to find this "mountain ginseng"?

However, the name "Takeshan Ginseng" sounds a bit strange.

The ginseng she learned was buried in the soil. Someone told me about some anecdotes that ginseng that had been around for hundreds of years could be seen all over the mountain, but no one had seen it with his own eyes. In addition, everyone knew that this was just a story.

However, this old man spent 3 million yuan, plus the price of building roads for the village, bought it from Zhang Hao...

Could it be that this "traveling ginseng" really exists?

Moreover, last night, Zhang Hao brought back a ginseng and said that he was found while walking on the mountain. After stewing chicken soup for her, today's inspection results were beyond her expectations.

The same is true for the last time [Suoduan Soup]...

The previous [Xuduan Tang], the ginseng from last night... did it have any magical effects?

As soon as the thoughts arose in his mind, Li Siyu was stunned for a moment.
To be continued...
