A few green leaves with morning dew, three or five pink peach blossoms with a slightly fragrant peach blossom are dotted together, and there are two small peach blossom cakes in the middle of the plate. A unique crystal pot contains the peach blossom wine made in Shili Taoyuan - this is the breakfast prepared by Shili Taoyuan for guests.

It can be said that the operators of Shili Taoyuan are not careless. They have created an atmosphere for customers to return to nature since breakfast. Staying away from the hustle and bustle of the city and experiencing the feeling of retreating to the mountains and forests is what many office workers yearn for.

However, for Zhong Lin, the two pieces of peach blossom cakes on the plate were too mini! It was not enough to fill his teeth, let alone fill his stomach. But in this place, you can't ask for seven or eight pieces of trays to fill your stomach, because that was purely stretching your neck and letting others slaughter it. The two pieces of peach blossom cakes here were probably enough to buy breakfast outside for two days. The most important thing is that if you eat a little peach blossom cake, it would be pleasant. If you eat too much, you will get tired of it. It is something that you can't eat at all!

After eating the two pieces of peach blossom cakes and drinking some peach blossom brews, Zhong Lin walked out of the wooden house. At this time, he found that there were more than a dozen young people living here like him. Some of them were busy taking selfies and posting on WeChat Moments in Taoyuan; some were calling with their couples, telling the "fear of parting"; some even wore ancient costumes, such as "Yehua" and "Emperor Donghua", and playing cosplay...

Zhong Lin quickly left the "troop" and said that he could not "encounter" Li Xingyue on the first day! He directly climbed over a small mountain bag and headed straight to the edge of Shili Taoyuan. He remembered that when he first arrived in Shili Taoyuan yesterday, he saw some shops along the road, which seemed to be farmhouses run by the surrounding villagers. The reason why he could avoid Li Xingyue and fill his stomach when he got there.

As expected, as Zhong Lin expected, several farmhouses run by local "natives" had breakfast. Zhong Lin chose a clean-looking farmhouse and walked in. There were not many people eating breakfast. Including Zhong Lin's total of three guests, Zhong Lin ordered a bowl of millet porridge and ordered two cages of small buns. It seemed that these could be called real breakfast! When the things were put on, Zhong Lin began to enjoy his breakfast...

"Boss, your peach blossom brew here is good, much better than the ones in Shili Taoyuan!" said a young man who was eating breakfast and looked in his twenties.

"Yo, young man, have you tasted it?" said a middle-aged man in his forties with a smile.

"Our family is from Shaoxing. We have been relying on brewing rice wine for generations to make a living. I can tell that the average rice wine is good or bad at just one smell. This is a skill I have learned since childhood." The young man said proudly.

"Hey, I didn't expect you to be an expert at a young age. Today I met a soulmate. Our family has an old craftsmanship to make this peach blossom wine. As the saying goes, relying on the mountains to eat mountains and water to eat water. Our family relies on this ten-mile Taoyuan to make peach blossom wine for several lifetimes..." The boss was very talkative. When talking about his peach blossom wine, he was so full of talk, and his eyebrows were bent.

"Boss, after hearing what you said, this peach blossom wine is much more particular than our rice wine!" The young man was also generous in praise.

"Each of them has its own characteristics. Peach Blossom Brew emphasizes good water, good flowers, and good crafts. Both of them are indispensable. Needless to say, the water is the spring water on the mountain, which is cool and sweet. The peach blossoms used are also the flowers of the old peach trees that have grown on the back mountain for decades. It is very different from the peach trees in the ten-mile Taoyuan. The peach trees here are very long, with thick flowers, and are particularly fragrant..." As the boss said, he suddenly stopped and a hint of sadness appeared on his face.

Zhong Lin had already finished breakfast at this moment, tasted the peach blossom wine poured by the friend, and watched the boss talk with the young man, he naturally saw the change in the boss's expression. He thought to himself, seeing that the boss is sentimental, is he a person with a story?

"Why is the boss still sentimental? Haha..." the young man said with a smile.

"Hey, there is no sentimentality. I've passed that age long ago. I'm really worried. There are fewer and fewer peach blossoms available in the back mountain. The last peach forest that is decades old will be auctioned today. I guess it won't take long before I can make such a good peach blossom brew again..."

The shop owner smiled bitterly, then looked at the young man, Zhong Lin and another customer and said, "You eat slowly and drink slowly. I'm going to the auction site to see if I can take a picture of the peach forest."

"There is such a thing. Boss, I will join you in the fun, too." said the young man.

Zhong Lin also stood up. He was not a person who liked to join in the fun, but he thought there was no place to go, so he just followed them to see it, because the Taolin to be auctioned must have not been developed. The biggest advantage of this is that he would definitely not meet Li Xingyue.

"Boss, I'll go with you to see the fun, too." Zhong Lin also said.

The boss was very happy to see two young people of the same age as his son who wanted to accompany him. The three of them walked out of the farmhouse one after another and walked towards the back mountain under the guidance of the farmhouse owner.

The young man is called Cao Dazhuang, from Shaoxing, and the farm owner is called Lu Shouyi, a native native.

When walking through a small hill, Lu Shouyi pointed to the peach forest in front of him and said with regret: "Look at this peach forest, the peach trees inside are decades old, and the ground is very good, with wind and water. The peach blossoms made by these peach trees are also very good for making peach blossom brews! What a pity! Now that they have all been bought by the islanders, this peach forest has been ruined..."

"How could it be sold to the islanders? Do they also make peach blossom wine?" Cao Dazhuang asked.

Lu Shouyi looked at Cao Dazhuang and sighed and said, "Hey, foreign monks are good at chanting scriptures! And if they also make peach blossom wine, no matter whether they are good or bad, I wouldn't say that this peach forest was ruined. The key is that they don't make peach blossom wine at all. They wait all day long for those peach trees to be struck by lightning..."

After hearing Lu Shouyi's words, Zhong Lin couldn't help but feel moved. Waiting for being struck by lightning, would they want to struck Taowood?

"Ah?! There is also this matter, the island people have a pitfall in their heads!" Cao Dazhuang said inexplicably.

"Do they want to strike the wood with lightning?" Zhong Lin asked tentatively.

"Young man, do you know this thunder-striking wood? That's right, as long as there is a thunder struck the peach tree, they are like they have picked up a treasure. Do you know what this thunder-striking wood is for?" Lu Shouyi looked at Zhong Lin and asked.

"Thunder-striking peach wood is said to be used to drive away disasters and evil spirits, so it is so popular." Zhong Lin said.

"Oh, it's such a waste of resources. But what you said reminds me of this reminder. Last year, my friend's peach tree was struck by lightning. He felt it was a pity at that time, but what he didn't expect was that two islanders came to buy the peach tree struck by lightning with him that day. My friend was very smart. A dark wood that had been struck by lightning was sold by him three times the price of that peach tree..." Lu Shouyi said, showing a puzzled look on his face.

Zhong Lin said intimately: "If it is really a thunder-striking peach wood, it will be more than three times the original price of peach trees. You can buy a whole peach wood."

"Hey, most of the peach trees have been bought by the islanders. Today, the only peach trees left in the hands of the villagers will be auctioned. One of the peach trees is from the friend I mentioned. The most important raw material of my peach blossom wine is picked from his peach forest. If the peach forest is taken away by the islanders today, then the peach blossom wine you drink in my store today is probably the last jar of my home brew..."

Lu Shouyi was inevitably a little sad when he said this. It can be seen that he had already realized that he might have just been to participate in the auction today.

"Boss Lu, how much does it cost to have a peach tree like this?" Zhong Lin said, pointing to a peach forest of about ten acres beside him.

"This film may not be worth much money, because the tree age is relatively short and the location in the field is not particularly good. It is estimated that the contract will only be about 200,000 yuan in 20 years." Lu Shouyi said.

"It's so cheap!" Cao Dazhuang said before Zhong Lin could speak.

"What? Young man, are you planning to take a peach forest?" Lu Shouyi looked at Zhong Lin and asked.

"I don't have that much money, I just want to watch the fun." Zhong Lin said with a smile.

"I want to shoot a picture. To some extent, we are also a fellow traveler! At that time, Boss Lu, I will join forces with you to let your ancestral crafts be passed down..." Cao Dazhuang was a straightforward person. It can be seen that his words were not on a whim, nor was he joking.
