Chapter 979
Granting Greenhouse Materials
The next day, Xu Bo'an thought about giving the materials for the greenhouse to the little people, so he got up early, wanting to give them the materials before they started working.
Xu Bo'an walked to the basement where the building materials for the greenhouse were stored, and focused his attention on the area above Kaoshan Village within the bonsai world.
After a quick glance around, I noticed that most of the little people had already finished breakfast and were getting ready to go out to work, and many were already working in the fields.
Moreover, it seems that the "greenhouse" built by the villagers using local materials is already taking shape. However, it doesn't look very sturdy because the only material the villagers can use locally is wood. Greenhouses built in this way are not durable or long-lasting. Nevertheless, Xu Bo'an is already very satisfied that the villagers have been able to build a greenhouse like this using local materials.
However, Xu Bo'an did not dampen the villagers' enthusiasm. After all, practice makes perfect. A person can understand the truth by constantly practicing, not by being taught by others little by little. Otherwise, people will become lazy to think for themselves, which is not a good thing.
Xu Bo'an felt that the residents of Kaoshan Village had done a very good job in this regard. Although he had told them before that he would give them the materials to build the greenhouse, he told them to learn the basic theoretical knowledge first. He thought it would be better to give them the materials after they had learned the basic theoretical knowledge. Otherwise, if he gave them the materials in advance, he would have to keep them safe. It was very convenient for him to buy these materials in the real world. So he thought he would give them the materials after the little people had completely learned the theoretical knowledge.
I didn't expect the little ones to learn so quickly, and once they learned, they started building with the materials they already had.
Although the greenhouses built by the small people using local materials provide almost no insulation, many people think that their approach is unnecessary!
However, Xu Bo'an did not think so. On the contrary, he felt that the spirit of the little people who dared to put things into practice was very valuable, which once again proved that they did not completely rely on themselves and had the ability to think independently!
Xu Bo'an found this quality in the little people very reassuring and commendable.
Xu Bo'an had just noticed that the village chief, Li Kanshan, was already working in the fields. So Xu Bo'an turned his gaze to the fields and said to Li Kanshan, "Li Kanshan, you're all out working in the fields so early in the morning?"
Upon hearing that the Mountain God had arrived, Li Kanshan and his group quickly knelt down and bowed in the direction of the Mountain God.
After bowing, Li Kanshan said, "Replying to the Mountain God, we are all old and can't sleep after the rooster crows, so we simply came to work in the fields!"
Xu Bo'an praised everyone, saying, "Your hard work is commendable, and the greenhouse is well-built! You have a great idea!"
Everyone was delighted to hear the Mountain God's praise. Village Chief Li Kanshan said, "Mountain God, we're really embarrassed by your praise. Although you told us before that you would give us materials to build greenhouses, we always felt it wasn't right to keep accepting your blessings."
"We feel like we've become lazy beggars who only know how to ask you for things, and it's quite a hassle for you to keep accepting your things. So we thought we'd do it ourselves. Firstly, if we succeeded, we wouldn't have to bother you anymore. Secondly, we wanted to try it out ourselves. Unfortunately, our resources were too limited, and we couldn't succeed. We wasted our time, and we apologize for making you laugh!" Xu Bo'an said, "There's no such thing as wasting time in anything, and no step is taken in vain. The fact that you took the initiative shows that you have a sense of self-reliance, instead of just relying on me, the mountain god. I really admire that."
Furthermore, your failure to build it was solely due to insufficient materials, not a fault of your own. However, you undoubtedly gained a great deal of experience during the process, which will provide you with even richer practical experience next time!
Hearing what the Mountain God Grandpa said, Li Kanshan and his group were very pleased. Li Kanshan took the lead and said, "We were feeling a little sad because we hadn't been able to build the greenhouse successfully despite our hard work these past few days. But what the Mountain God Grandpa said has made us feel much better. We have to say that we have indeed learned a lot of new knowledge in the process of building it!"
Xu Bo'an said, "That's right, that's enough. This is the point of your actions. I've come here to give you some materials for building the greenhouse. You all step aside and be careful not to get hurt!"
Upon hearing Xu Bo'an's words, everyone was overjoyed and quickly followed his instructions to retreat to both sides.
Then the little people saw a huge, dark mass descending from the sky and eventually landing on a relatively wide patch of ground beside the field.
Xu Bo'an transformed all the materials used to build the greenhouse into the size of a bonsai world, and after only three times, he had put all the materials needed to build the greenhouse inside!
After Xu Bo'an put everything inside, he said, "Alright, these are all the materials you need to build the greenhouse! Enough to build about a hundred acres!"
When the children heard that Grandpa Mountain God had already placed all the materials needed to build the greenhouse on the ground, they all ran to the materials.
One by one, people couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, "Wow, are these things used to build greenhouses? Isn't it a bit wasteful to use such high-quality materials to build greenhouses!"
Another person reached out and stroked the hot-dip galvanized round pipes used to build the greenhouse frame, and couldn't help but exclaim in amazement: "Yes, look at the color and luster of these pipes, they look as dazzling as the silver ingots of high-ranking officials and nobles. Are these really the materials that the Mountain God gave us to build the greenhouse? This is too high-class!"
Another person looked at the EVA film and said, "This should be that greenhouse protective film, what's it called again? When I watched the video, it looked as clear as glass, and seemed too thin to withstand wind and sun. But now I realize I was overthinking it. This stuff is incredibly durable! The Mountain God is truly amazing; things from the celestial realm are indeed extraordinary!"
A man standing next to him said, “Of course! The Mountain God is a deity, after all. Our things can’t compare to what he bestows upon us! Look at these bundles of rope; they must be windbreaks. They’re much more durable than the hemp ropes we make ourselves. We are so fortunate to be the children of the Mountain God!” (End of Chapter)
