He Couldn’t Risk Losing His Crop

Though China is progressing at a rapid speed, more than 40 million people of this country have an income of less than $350 per year. Not only that, over 500 million people are spending their lives in a daily income of  $5.50. The poverty still persists there in a terrible way. 

Only Source Of Income

Li was well aware of that. Farming was the sole source of income for Li. And in a country where farming does not earn you good money, Li knew any problem with the crops would turn into a big financial loss for him. That is the reason why he opted to check the orchid thoroughly even though no case regarding the disease turned up in the county. 

Exploring

The orchard grew dense as he penetrated it further. It was a long time ago he had gone this far. Till now everything looked fine. The man had no idea that the constant ignorance by him had encouraged someone to house this dark and less visited part of the orchard. Li was completely unaware of that strange resident. Unknowingly, he stepped into the object’s territory.

A Good News?

He realized that crops of this time were far better than the previous ones. He was very happy that his hard work had paid off. It was the first time he had been seeing this part of the orchard. He got totally taken aback by the beauty this place held. He was surrounded by the green and orange of the orchard that made up a beautiful sight.      

Links With Tang Dynasty

Though he belonged to affluent Tang Dynasty, Li had seen a lot of poverty. The man did not have a good financial condition and was accustomed of struggling to keep his body and soul together. The man was the sole earner of his home and that is why he had lots of responsibility to shoulder.

All Good

He had reached the end of the orchard and luckily not a single tree was in bad health. Inspection of the area also helped him in fixing the small problems that the orchard had. There was only one tree left now to check. He went there and saw something very odd lying on the foot of it.
