Pastoral Daily Life

    Gao Yongliang's mood during this period can be described as a combination of sadness and joy, like a roller coaster.

    First, Sequoia Investment suddenly withdrew its investment in him, like a bolt from the blue. Before he could digest the news, Dezhi Investment, who had rejected him before, took the initiative to find him and expressed his willingness to reconsider the project, but Dezhi Investment must have absolute controlling interest in Gao Yongliang Company. Gao Yongliang deliberately flew abroad for this purpose. The two sides saw the equity allocation for a few days. Gao Yongliang finally let go. He occupied 49% of the company's shares, and Dezhi Investment held 51%.

    The problem of funds was solved. After returning to China, Gao Yongliang devoted all his energy to Lu Lingxi, and spent his time on micro-gardening almost every day. After a period of time, Yan Yue agreed to cooperate with him when he couldn't bear it. Instead of cooperating with Xue Yongtong, but directly cooperating with Gao Yongliang, Micro Horticulture will become Gao Yongliang's supplier together with Lvxuan Horticulture. And Yan Yue clearly stated in the cooperation that the number of begonias after the "mutation" is relatively small, and the micro-horticulture can only provide the number for Gao Yongliang's experiments in the early stage, and it will take until next year for large-scale production. Gao Yongliang knew this was the truth and reluctantly agreed.

    In the whole process of cooperation, Gao Yongliang and Wei Gardening were very happy, but Xue Yongtong was a little depressed. In the end, he still didn't know what happened to Qiu Haitang. He originally thought that the scale of micro-horticultural gardens was not enough. If he wanted to cultivate begonias on a large scale, he could only cooperate with Lvxuan. The person who bought it is still Yan Yue. Now there are also micro-horticultural flower beds, and he doesn't have anything to do with him. What made Xue Yongtong more suffocated was that he had just owed Yan Yue a big favor, and he couldn't show his depression. He could only smile at Lu Lingxi with a kind face, and turned back to continue to mad at the begonia.

    Xue Yongtong's private depression Lu Lingxi didn't know, all his energy was on the reproduction of evolution begonias.

    Under normal circumstances, the propagation of begonias is mainly by sowing, cuttings and tissue culture. However, because begonias are the descendants of hybrids, the seed propagation variation is large, and the inheritance is unstable, so seeds are rarely used for sowing, and most of them are propagated by cuttings and tissue culture. Cuttings are what Lu Lingxi is most familiar with. Select twigs of about ten centimeters, remove the basal leaves, and insert them into the sand bed after drying. They can take root in about 3 weeks and grow into new plants. In addition to cuttings, another fast propagation method is tissue culture propagation. This method of reproduction is to use tissue culture to multiply flower seedlings in test tubes. Specifically, a small piece of tissue on the flower plant, such as a leaf or stem node or flower bud, is cultivated in a culture bottle and propagated through continuous cutting. , thousands of new plants can be grown in a short period of time.

    Compared with cuttings, Lu Lingxi is not very proficient in the latter. Although Qiu Tian Gardening's flowerbed has a corresponding cultivation room, Lu Lingxi still chose cuttings in the early stage, and slowly propagated the number of begonias. Of course, he also gradually began to learn how to use the cultivation room in preparation for future large-scale breeding.

    This process is also a running-in process between Lu Lingxi and the former Qiutian garden workers. The scale of Qiutian's flower garden is too large. Unlike the flower garden of micro gardening, it can only be taken care of by Uncle Li and Yu Xiaojuan, and workers must be hired from outside. Using raw is worse than using familiarity. Yan Yue did not make any major adjustments to the original workers, but only dismissed some of the workers who he felt were inappropriate. The rest were considered to be skilled and honest.

    Among them, Lu Guoxing was most impressed by Lu Lingxi. Lu Guoxing was in his 40s, with a Chinese-character face, dark skin, and tall stature. When he spoke, Lu Lingxi's ears buzzed. He was originally just an ordinary worker in the flowerbed, but he was also the only one who saw that these begonias cultivated by Lu Lingxi were different from ordinary begonias. After Yan Yue investigated Lu Guoxing's background, he simply brought him up. When Lu Lingxi was there, he was Lu Lingxi's assistant. When Lu Lingxi was away, he was the person in charge of the garden.

    When this series of things are on the right track, it will be the beginning of October. Xiao Feng did not know where he heard that Wang Shuxiu was worried about the supply of vegetables in winter. After taking Huzi and a few people to inspect the vegetable market in Fengcheng, he decided to change the flower garden of Qiutian Gardening into a vegetable garden, and the greenhouses in it were used for vegetable gardens. grow vegetables. Xiao Feng's name was there. He had just started preparations. Several small restaurants near the original chess and card room immediately came over and wanted to cooperate with Xiao Feng. To put it bluntly, I thought that Xiao Feng could cover them.

    After hearing Xiao Feng's plan, Lu Lingxi thought of the tomato seeds he collected and the grape seeds that the system rewarded last time. The general grape planting is cutting seedlings, or direct purchase of grape seedlings. Lu Lingxi explained in the book that the grapes produced by the delicious grape seeds are not necessarily delicious, and the seedlings from the seeds are very late, and it takes about 4 or 5 years. But the seeds in his hand are not ordinary seeds, they are rewarded by the system. Considering the effect of tomato planting, Lu Lingxi is very relieved about grape seeds. He didn't know how well Brother Feng's first vegetable planting worked, but good seeds should help a little bit. Tomatoes planted last time will definitely be popular, and grapes are definitely not bad either.

    Besides, it's almost winter, and the tomatoes in the yard are dying. He wanted to eat tomatoes, and was very curious about the grape seeds rewarded by the system. It would be great if Feng Ge could try it in the greenhouse. With these thoughts in mind, Lu Lingxi divided some of the seeds, including tomatoes and grapes, and gave them to Wang Shuxiu, asking her to suggest Xiao Feng to properly plant some of them.

    Wang Shuxiu looked at the seeds on the table, "What does this mean?"

    Lu Lingxi said obediently: "This is the seed of our tomato, it must grow better than the seeds sold on the market, and the taste is also good, and the grape seeds I found, the grapes that I planted must be good. Eat." If it wasn't for Wang Shuxiu's sake, he wouldn't take out these seeds.

    Wang Shuxiu was a little funny, the little **** understood at a glance, she slapped Lu Lingxi with her eyebrows upside down, "You worry a lot."

    Since Xiao Feng closed the chess and card room, the relationship between Wang Shuxiu and Xiao Feng is obviously closer. But the two didn't make it clear, and they got along tepidly. Wang Shuxiu thinks it's good, Xiao Feng doesn't seem to be in a hurry, but Lu Lingxi has been tangled several times in private, should he continue to call Xiao Feng "Brother Feng" or Uncle Xiao.

    Lu Lingxi touched her head and looked at Wang Shuxiu with embarrassment, Wang Shuxiu laughed and put away the seeds, "Okay, I'll show it to Brother Feng, it's his business to plant or not. already."

    "Oh."

    Lu Lingxi didn't say anything, but felt that Xiao Feng would definitely grow as long as he wasn't stupid. He had eaten tomatoes in the backyard and knew what it tasted like.

    In fact, Xiao Feng is also considering Lu Lingxi's tomatoes. Thinking about finding time to ask Wang Shuxiu where the tomato seeds were bought, they also went to buy some.

    Hu Zi sat next to Xiao Feng, pretending to hold a book on vegetable planting, pointing: "We also need to grow some cabbage, beans, garlic sprouts... By the way, there are also winter melons. In order to maintain the original flavor of these crops, it is best not to use pesticides, and try not to use some chemical fertilizers to ripen them."

    What he said was serious, Er Fei hugged his stomach and laughed to death, jokingly: "Huzi, do you still know words?"

    Hu Zi kicked him in dissatisfaction, "Go away, I also graduated from high school."

    The two were fighting, Xiao Feng was a little impatient, lit a cigarette, and asked, "How is the recruiter?" can no longer be used. Xiao Feng picked a few to keep, Yan Yue came to pick a few, and the rest were fired. Such a few people are definitely not enough, and the brothers under him don't seem to be able to farm the land, and they have to recruit outsiders.

    When it comes to serious matters, Huzi is not ambiguous at all. "I've found them. They're all from nearby villages. Dapeng has inquired about them privately. The recruits are all good farmers, with honest personalities and no trouble."

    Er ​​Fei laughed, "We're still afraid that someone will cause trouble."

    Huzi glared at him, "We've gotten better now, you know? Don't fight if you can, and convince people with virtue."

    The crowd: "…"

    Even Xiao Feng couldn't help laughing. "It's past ten o'clock, go to bed."

    The tigers were sent away, Xiao Feng thought that he had to buy a few cars and rent a few stalls outside. Those who run and transport, the rest are sent to the booth, and they are left to toss.

    After a solid sleep, Xiao Feng received a call from Wang Shuxiu early the next morning, giving him time to go to the small restaurant and looking for him. Xiao Feng did not delay, and went to the small restaurant after breakfast. Wang Shuxiu took out the seeds that Lu Lingxi gave yesterday. Xiao Feng was very happy to hear that it was the seeds of tomatoes grown in the backyard, which Lu Lingxi specially prepared for him.

    Wang Shuxiu also explained that the original seeds of those tomatoes grown in the backyard were also given to Lu Lingxi by others, and Lu Lingxi didn't know where to buy them outside. Xiao Feng waved his hand, Lu Lingxi was thinking about giving him these seeds, but what happened to this bag of grape seeds?

    Following his line of sight, Wang Shuxiu laughed, "The little **** probably wants to eat grapes. No one has ever planted these seeds before, just leave it alone, brother Feng, leave it alone."

    Xiao Feng tossed the seed in his hand and did not speak. He had never planted grapes before, but he had no idea, but it was sent by Lu Lingxi anyway, so if he could find a corner to plant a little, it wouldn't take up much space. It can also sell well in front of the "son" after planting, and this transaction is also cost-effective.

    Lu Lingxi didn't know that Xiao Feng planned to plant grapes, but he planted it with the mentality of pleasing him. He is now closing the shop and preparing to go to Lingshui Village with Yan Yue. Before leaving the city, Yan Yue drove him around Fengcheng and deliberately went to look at the places they had cleaned before.

    The first one they came to was Seongnam. Some time after the purification started, Lu Lingxi also came here to see it, and the changes were not very obvious. But after a month, the changes are already obvious. Compared with the surroundings, the plants on the purified land are extremely lush, and the wild flowers and weeds that I don't know are crowded together, looking very vibrant. There were several stray cats haunting the grass, the largest one lay lazily on the tree, basking in the sun with its belly turned upside down. Hearing the movement of the people coming, the cat glanced at them lightly, its golden pupils instantly widened after seeing Lu Lingxi, sniffed, turned over and squatted there, meowing towards Lu Lingxi. stand up.

    Lu Lingxi smiled, and the mental scan spread out and fixed on the willow tree where the cat was squatting. The tree in front of me is in the center of purifying the soil, with luxuriant branches and leaves. The afternoon sun hits the tree, as if emerald color is flowing on the leaves. Before you know it, this willow tree has fulfilled the requirements of evolution.

    The white panel pops up, and the shape of the willow tree appears on it. The bottom state shows that the willow tree is the primary peak at this time. Do you want to evolve immediately?

    Lu Lingxi chose yes, the evolution of the willow tree in the primary state to the first state state is not very dynamic, and it will not make people feel like an earthquake like the evolution of the big willow tree. With Lu Lingxi's determination, the roots of the willow tree began to grow slowly. Except for part of them going underground, the rest seemed to extend toward a fixed place. Lu Lingxi was stunned for a while, the panel status display was correct, part of the willow tree's roots were really extending toward the north, but the speed was extremely slow.

    He hadn't figured it out yet, the cat on the tree clearly felt something, jumped off the tree quickly and rushed to Lu Lingxi, barked again, got into the grass and ran away. Lu Lingxi felt that the intuition of animals is much sharper than that of humans. Taking his attention away from the cat, he told Yan Yue about the changes in the willow tree, with a hint of confusion, "North? What's in the north?"

    Yan Yue couldn't see the white panel, listened to Lu Lingxi's description thoughtfully, the direction of the big willow tree in Lingshui Village is in the north, and the other nearest purified soil is also in the north , of course, where Xiaoxi lives is also in the north. He felt that the choice of willow was nothing more than these three, but no matter where it was, it seemed to illustrate the magic of willow evolution, or the magic of the panel. He patted Lu Lingxi's hair soothingly, "Let's go to another purification place to have a look. The closest place to here is not far to the north."

    Lu Lingxi also thought of this and nodded obediently.

    Twenty minutes later, the two went to another purification place. The purified land in the south of the city seems to be spreading very fast because the surrounding development is relatively backward, the flow of people is less, and the corresponding pollution is also less. And although this place in front of me also spreads all around, the range is more than a little smaller than that in the south of the city. But compared with the disorder in the south of the city, it seems that someone has taken care of it, and the weeds on the ground have been removed, leaving only unknown wild flowers of different colors. Under the willow tree on one side, several old people were playing chess around, and there were children running around, looking very lively.

    Yan Yue parked the car across the road, and the two did not get off. Lu Lingxi's mental scan has a range of 30 meters, which is enough to see the state of the willow tree.

    The white panel emerges, this willow tree has also met the needs of evolution. Lu Lingxi chose yes without hesitation. The panel quickly showed that the changes in the roots of the willow tree were exactly the same as those in the south of the city. Part of it went underground, and the other part slowly extended towards the north. Now, without Yan Yue's words, Lu Lingxi also guessed that the target of the two willow trees should be the big willow tree in Lingshui Village. He was a little worried that there would be too much movement in the future, but then he thought that it would take several years to reach the big willow tree according to the extension speed of these roots. Counting the time, there is no need for him to worry for the time being.

    Yan Yue nodded as he listened to Lu Lingxi's analysis. A few years have been enough for Fengcheng to change drastically. When the community is integrated into Fengcheng, no one will guess where the source will be.

    The two circled Fengcheng, and the purified soil in the five places expanded well, but not all the willow trees planted above met the evolutionary requirements, only three of them met the evolutionary requirements . The other two plants looked like they were flourishing, but they always felt that they were almost something. Lu Lingxi thought about it for a while, and in an instant, Fu Ling felt, "Vitality, what they lack is vitality." Just like those green plants planted in the flowerbed, some have evolved, some have not, and he did not take care of the ones that did not evolve. Not good, but lacks the vitality of evolution.

    "Life?"

    Lu Lingxi explained excitedly, "Although I can't see it, I can feel it. I used to think it was wrong. The vitality of plants is not an ethereal substance, but a kind of energy. Plant growth The energy required for each stage is different. Just like this willow tree, if it does not meet the evolutionary requirements, it is not enough vitality, that is, the accumulated energy is not enough, and when it stores enough energy, it should be able to evolve.”

    Yan Yue nodded thoughtfully, further thinking of the heart of plants and the power of nature. If it is connected like this, he feels that the vitality in Lu Lingxi's mouth is somewhat like the heart of a plant.

    On the way out of the city, Lu Lingxi was quite interested because he figured out the reason why plants could not evolve. The scope of his recent activities has been mostly in the flower garden of Qiu Tian Gardening, and he has not been to Lingshui Village for a few days. The greenhouse on Lingshui Village had already been built, and Yan Yue also asked someone to dig a pond in the center of the flowerbed. This time, the two of them went to the flowerbed just to fill the pond with water, and try to cultivate some aquatic crops while the weather is still cold.

    When Lu Lingxi talked about the pond, he thought of the first-level peak Wanglian in Xue Yongtong. He was a little itchy and couldn't help but said: "Brother Yan, you said we went to Uncle Xue and said that we wanted to introduce that Wanglian, will Uncle Xue agree?"

    Yan Yue rubbed Lu Lingxi's hair indulgently. Xue Yongtong's thoughts don't matter. If Lu Lingxi likes it, he will find a way to get Xue Yongtong to agree.
