After the divorce, I became a mountain god

Chapter 8: Enough Salt
Qi Xiaoqiang had just put down his harsh words, and Xu Bo'an, who had already walked far away, showed a smile on his lips.

Very good, my hearing is much sharper.

Entering the elevator, Xu Bo'an suddenly felt dizzy looking at the promotional leaflets pasted in the elevator.

After taking off my glasses, I discovered that my myopia had been greatly improved.

Wonderful!It seems that all of his body functions have become much stronger.

Xu Bo'an was a little happy, and even Qi Xiaoqiang's harsh words didn't take it seriously.

Chen Pingping didn't have such a good attitude. After all, for her, this was an unforeseen disaster.

It felt like she had become a third party.

In this state of mind, Chen Pingping's interest in watching cars also weakened.

After a brief walk around the car show, he left with the excuse that something happened in the store.

Xu Bo'an expressed his apology with a full face, while Chen Pingping said very officially that it was just a small matter and she didn't take it seriously.

Xu Boan shook his head slightly. It seemed that the two of them were probably out of luck.

However, with Xu Bo'an's current net worth and the promising future of money, it seems that it will always be a bad choice. After all, a man will be a boy until he dies.

As for Chen Pingping, being a friend or confidante is a good choice if possible.

Moreover, the middle-aged Xu Bo'an has already looked away from many things, and this is just a trivial matter like drizzle.

Of course, if you randomly give 2000 million to a poor person, everyone will be open to it.

This is like a popular saying when Xu Bo'an was young. If you just break up and find that Liu Yifei and Fan Bingbing have been waiting for you for a long time, most people will no longer be sad about the breakup.

After watching Chen Pingping leave, Xu Boan walked around the various exhibition areas of the auto show with the idea that he had come.

In the end, Xu Boan really picked a car he liked.

That was a big pickup truck that Xu Boan had always liked, the Ford Raptor!

Xu Bo'an has been working on the construction site for many years, working his way from surveyor to director of the engineering department, deputy director, director, deputy project manager, chief engineer, second-level project manager, and first-level project manager!
Along the way, the car Xu Bo'an rode in most was the pickup truck on the construction site. Although in the later years when he served on the project leadership team, he rode more Babo and Cruiser equipped by the company.

But Xu Boan still has a soft spot for all kinds of pickup trucks.

The kings of the pickup truck world are the Dodge Ram and Ford Raptor.

According to Xu Bo'an's income over the years, he can actually afford a car worth 80 million yuan.

It's just that my ex-wife was in charge before, let alone buying such an expensive car. The little Jetta worth [-] yuan has been driven by me for ten years and the other party will not let me replace it.

Now that I am free and have plenty of money, I naturally want to pursue my own hobbies.

Unfortunately, the red car that Xu Boan chose was not available, and he had to wait three days to pick up the new car at the 4S store.

Having a good meal is not afraid of being late. Xu Boan looked at the photographers at the car show with great interest for a while, and then took a taxi back to his residence.

After closing the door, the first thing Xu Bo'an did was to release the bonsai.

At this time, there were several villagers climbing on the cliff inside the bonsai.

Li Qingshi was holding a withered vine on the side to demonstrate teaching, and taught the villagers the tricks of rock climbing plausibly.

"If you feel you can't hold it tightly with your hands, wrap the vine twice around your wrist and continue climbing."

"You can find a concave and convex place on the cliff to rest your feet, or you can wrap your feet around the vines."

Xu Bo'an thought for a while, found a box of staples, and took them apart one by one.

Then he said to the villagers in the bonsai.

"Okay, you guys get out of the way first. I have a better way to help you climb up and down the rock."

Hearing Xu Boan speak, the villagers hurriedly stepped away.

"Grandpa Mountain God has spoken, everyone should move away from the cliff." Li Qingshi also greeted everyone.

Seeing that the villagers were avoiding the cliff, Xu Boan inserted the disassembled staples into the cliff one by one, inserting a staple every 3 millimeters or so.

It forms a kind of wall ladder that is directly inserted into the wall and can be climbed up by grabbing and stepping on the staples.

For the villagers who are the size of melon seeds, the height of about 3 mm is only half a body height, which is extremely convenient.

After a while, the wall ladder made of staples was completed.

"Come on, Li Qingshi, how about you try it first?" Xu Bo'an looked at his invention with a smile.

"Okay Grandpa Mountain God, I'm coming right now."

Li Qingshi went forward in response, grasping the upper staple with one hand and stepping on the lower staple with his feet, moving upward alternately, and soon reached the mountainside where the mountain temple was located.

"It's so convenient. Grandpa Mountain God has incredible skills."

"It's just that these shining silver fairy weapons were given to the common people like us. It's really a waste."

Xu Bo'an pretended to be dignified and said: "It doesn't matter, I have plenty of these things here. It's lunch time, do you have anything you want to eat for lunch?"

Li Qingshi hurriedly replied: "As for Grandpa Mountain God, we usually eat two meals a day. We are already very full from the Xianjia sweets you gave us earlier. In the evening, we all discussed preparing to bake some potatoes. , slaughter a chicken and make soup to commemorate today’s relocation.”

Xu Boan shook his head, this is not possible.

At present, the villagers have very few livestock and poultry. In this vast mountain forest, my own ability is limited, and I can't find extra poultry and meat for the villagers.If Xu Bo'an were to put a chicken or duck in the real world, he would probably peck out these little people one by one in an instant.

After thinking for a while, Xu Bo'an slapped his head and hurriedly reached out and took out the little snake that he had stabbed to death.

"Here, this is the python promised to Li Qingshi before. You can skin it and eat it."

A small snake that looks like a small earthworm, in the eyes of the villagers, is a giant beast more than ten meters long.

Some timid villagers even took several steps back in fright.

Li Qingshi and several middle-aged and elderly men gathered around happily.

"Great, this jungle python is enough for us to eat for a month."

"You are so beautiful. In such a hot weather now, it is not easy to keep it for five or six days without breaking."

"Oh, it's a pity that there isn't much salt. Otherwise, if we marinate the meat, it would last for many years."

"Okay, everyone, hurry up and separate the snake meat. Let's take some of it to the town and sell it for salt. By the way, pick up the village chief and others when we come back."

Listening to the villagers discussing the processing method of snake meat, Xu Bo'an became curious.

"How far is the town you're talking about from here? Is it big?"

Li Qingshi hurriedly replied: "As for Grandpa Shan Shen, Xishan Town is not far from here. It only takes half a day to walk there. I can't tell how big it is, but I heard that there are more than 2 people."

More than 2 people!

Xu Boan raised his eyebrows.

If so many people could offer incense at the mountain temple, wouldn’t they be prosperous?
Of course, this matter cannot be rushed.

Xu Boan said: "Since the town is so far away, there is no need to go there. As for salt, I can give you some, just wait for a while."

Xu Bo'an ran to the kitchen, took the spice box from home, reached out and used a small spoon to scoop out half a spoonful of salt and poured it on a small piece of tissue paper that he tore off, and gently placed the small piece of paper in the bonsai.

The villagers felt that something like a flying carpet suddenly floated down from the sky. When the piece of paper fell to the ground, the villagers' eyes widened.

On the soft white cushion, bean-sized transparent salt cubes were placed there like ice cubes.

In Xu Boan's eyes, fine salt can be called granules, but in the perception of these small villagers, it is a salt block the size of a bean.

"Salt? It's really salt!"

"Excellent salt! So bright! Even official salt has such purity."

"This is a hundred times better than coarse salt."

"This kind of salt is very expensive! I heard that official salt is more than ten times the price of our coarse salt."

"Nonsense, can we ask for money for the things that Grandpa Mountain God has given us?"

A group of villagers shouted and rushed forward.

A villager held bean-sized pieces of salt in his hand, stuck out his tongue and took a lick, with a satisfied expression on his face!
"Yeah! When I was working at a post station when I was young, I tasted good official salt once. This is the taste!"

"Oh my God, I have never seen such pure salt in my life. I am so happy."

"Little Shitou, tell me, isn't it a pity that we use such good salt to marinate the meat?"

Li Qingshi heard an aunt's question and was hesitating how to answer when he heard Xu Bo'an's voice.

"It doesn't matter, you can just use the salt. I'll take care of enough here, including water and food."

Thinking of food, Xu Bo'an continued to ask amidst the grateful kneeling sounds of the villagers.

"What kind of food do you eat on a daily basis?"

An uncle in his 50s took the message and quickly replied: "It's potato and bran noodles. Little stone, go take it out and show it to Grandpa Mountain God."

Li Qingshi trotted into the instant noodle box house and quickly took out a piece of taro and a small bag of gray powder.

I know Xu Bo'an from Taro. When he was on the construction site, he traveled all over the country. He even tasted sweet and salty tofu curd and rice dumplings.

Although Xu Bo'an didn't recognize the grayish powder, it was probably the bran noodles the villagers were talking about. It was unappetizing at first glance.

Xu Boan sighed. Fortunately, he asked, otherwise these little people would have to eat this thing to satisfy their hunger.

Since you have sought your own asylum, you must be responsible for them.

Soon, Xu Bo'an took some rice and some flour and put them all in the paper cup.

After thinking about it, Xu Boan took another pack of toothpicks and put them in the bonsai for the villagers.

Li Qingshi and others were happily carrying the salt when they suddenly saw two more huge barrels falling from the sky and landing next to the ladder on the cliff.

Along with the huge barrel came down a pile of exquisite round wooden stakes as thick as a thigh and as tall as three or four people.

Then came the majestic voice of Grandpa Mountain God.

"These two granaries are for two staple foods, one is flour and the other is rice. As for the wood, you can chop wood to make fire for cooking."

That's right, the toothpicks given by Xu Bo'an were used by the little people to make firewood. Anyway, it was just a simple effort.

Li Qingshi climbed up the wall ladder quickly, stood at the same height as the paper cup and looked inside, his eyes widened in shock.
