Chapter 680: Green London Pine Tree-2

The group quickly found the patch of land with Pine trees. It was a species of pine tree that was native to the United Kingdom. It's an evergreen tree that was known for its tall, slender shape and its dark green needles.

This Pine Tree was a popular choice for landscaping and was often used as a decorative tree in gardens and public spaces. Many of them were planted around the Estate for aesthetics and they were all transported from this stretch of land.

" How big are we talking this time?" Samuel inspected each tree. The older a tree was the harder and more specialization it would require to transport it.

They never much cared about cutting it down in the past but few years back, Samuel suggested that instead of cutting, they should uproot the whole tree. There were many empty places so they could just relocate it after the holiday.

No matter how abundant these pine trees were, it would take years if not decades for each tree to grow big enough to be used as decoration. It would be a shame to throw them away so instead Samuel devised to go for a much younger tree, so that it wouldn't die after getting planted somewhere else.

" There are a lot of children so.."

" Right, how about this?" Samuel tapped one of the young tree that appeared to be almost ten meter tall. It was lush green and looked to be in pristine condition.

" That big? Will we able to pull it?" Arthur asked. It was a grueling process of hours of digging and trying not to damage roots extensively.

" It will be fine." Samuel had the final say for the matter. He was afterall a general expert when it came to these things, no one questioned where he learned it from because in their eyes, he was able to do things. It wasn't surprising after seeing him pull it off countless times in the past.

They picked up the tools and started digging, with everyone's effort they were able to get to the roots in an hour. Samuel tied a thick rope around the tree and instructed them to pull. They also brought a mini excavator to make things easier. They were able to finish the job within an hour which was a record time even for them.

" Now let's get this bad boy home."

" I will see if they are ready for it. I already informed them about the general height of the tree.."

" It's alright. Even like this, it wouldn't die quickly. We have plenty of time to plant it."

...

...

...

As expected, as soon as they came out of the forest every children was waiting for them. They must have heard the sound of excavator carrying the tree because they were cheering long before anyone of them exited the forest.

" It's my favorite shoes!"

" This is my favorite dress but it doesn't fit anymore.."

There was wide variety of things but thirty percent of it was either his painting that was too obscure to make out who was in it or something related to him. He smiled seeing how popular he was among children. He patted their heads waiting for Elise and Grayson to come.

Grayson came back panting trying to catch his breath. He ran the whole way so that he didn't miss any good spot. He was holding what appeared to be fur?

" Is that-"

" It's the hair that I collected over the weeks. Isn't it cool?"

" Hair?"

" Yeah, it's King's hair."

" Oh."

Samuel could see the greyish color of Grayson's favorite horse, King the Irish thoroughbred. He must be thinking about it for a long time because it was neatly prepared as a type of dusting brush with ample hairs intricately held together by a golden thread.

After some time, Elise also came back running. The kids already began to debate where they would like to hang up their stuff. Everyone wanted to show off what they prepared to their family but they didn't need to worry about it.

Samuel prepared special lights that would be placed at an angle right around their pieces so that it would be visible even at night.

" This?"

" I want to hang this up. This was the first gift that Sami gave me." She handed him the small pink dress. It was something that he bought for her in Paris.

" Are you sure? Wasn't it your favorite dress?" He had seen how careful she was when she wore it.

" It's alright." She gave him the sweetest smile. Samuel was a little touched, he patted her head warmly and handed the dress to people that were finishing up on decoration. Instead of the giant star at the top, this time they were going to hand her dress as the centerpiece.

With sufficient lighting, Samuel was sure it wouldn't lose to the most fancy decorations in the world!
