Four old boys rented 2500 mu of mountain woodland and lived in seclusion in the valley.

A secluded place in the valley. The birds awaken the lush woods with songs, the wind blowing and the sand rattling, with the natural, wild flowers and grass-scented air in the mountains. Full of grass and blue sky and white clouds reflect each other, forming a beautiful picture. Slightly against it, there were four old boys in shorts and slippers, and bohemian laughter echoed through the valley.

In February 2015, Xu Huaizhe, Tian Chao, Yue Liang and Zhang Xiaoyin, four old boys rented 2500 mu of mountain and woodland in Yanqing, Beijing until 2047. Their original idea was to find a valley with a few good friends to live a life close to nature, but now they have a more interesting plan to turn it into a building block commune, while they jokingly call each other and the people who come to live as accumulated friends. this is a container community that attracts people who are eager to get close to nature and pursue a poetic life.

This valley is 80 kilometers away from Beijing and is located in Tielu Village, Yanqing. It has not experienced much development, and everything is the way it was. All the year round, there are different scenery, drinking mountain springs, picking mushrooms, picking wild fruits, sorting out weeds. Yue Liang's wife especially likes the life here. Her favorite is the tea brewed from mountain springs.

The four good friends in the valley will play the piano and sing together in their spare time, and occasionally recall how they first came here. They have different skills. Internet marketing celebrities are responsible for marketing, corporate executives are responsible for planning, construction designers and independent brand designers are responsible for Pingxuan, and everyone is doing their best to work for the building block commune.

Through the unremitting efforts of four good friends, this once uninhabited valley, the water grid from scratch, 100 megabytes of optical fiber Wi-Fi coverage. In order not to damage the local environment, the decoration style of the building block commune is natural, the building materials are mainly environmentally friendly materials, and the development area is small. Here, you can climb a mountain overlooking the scenery, or you can pick wild fruits in your busy time, and you can stretch your waist and do whatever you want to do, just like wild flowers and weeds.

"Life is not only in the present, but also in poetry and distant fields." The vanity of material desires in the city makes people yearn for a return to natural life, and this sentence comforts many people. This bowl of chicken soup soothes and attracts many people. In fact, the present and distant fields are a way of life, as long as you know clearly where your road leads to, this is your best life.
