Chapter 89: old dog

    Uncle Li has been in a trance for the past two days. He doesn't know what's going on. He seems to suddenly understand the meaning of the old dog's barking in the garden.

    The old dog used to be a stray dog. There are six stray dogs in the garden. Several of them were old, and two were lame from injuries. Whether they are old or injured, it is very difficult for these dogs to survive outside, and it is difficult to survive even with stray dogs.

      Uncle Li listened to Yan Yue's meaning and wanted to hire another person to be on duty in the flowerbed at night and take care of the dogs. The old man wanted to recommend Xu San, and he would not be afraid that something would happen to Xu San when he watched. But Yan Yue was in a hurry last time, and Uncle Li didn't have time to open his mouth. He has been taking care of these dogs for the past two days.

    Uncle Li didn't notice the old dog at first. It was the day when it snowed and cooled down. Uncle Li came early to see if the green plants in the flowerbed were okay, and by the way, I got some food for these dogs. As a result, he was dividing their bones when he heard the bald old dog on the far side bark a few times. Uncle Li didn't know what was going on, but he felt that the old dog was sighing that his time was not good, and he was afraid that the stray dogs outside would suffer again.

    He felt a little strange, obviously he was only used to hearing the barking of a dog, how could he be able to hear this meaning. Uncle Li didn't take it seriously at first, and continued to divide the bones among the dogs, but the old dog barked again. The cry fell in Uncle Li's ears, and the meaning changed again. This old dog is clearly saying that it is too old and can't bite too many bones. Just give it something to eat, and save these bones for other dogs to eat.

    Uncle Li paused subconsciously at that time, picked a few small bones with meat and put them in the dog basin in front of the old dog. The old dog seemed to realize something, squinted at Uncle Li, and stopped barking.

    Uncle Li has something in his heart, and he doesn't know who to talk to. Is what he heard true, or is there something wrong with his body that has hallucinations? But he clearly felt that his body was getting better and better, and even the villagers joked that he looked a few years younger. The old man pondered for a long time, and felt that he was hallucinating, so he suppressed this matter in his heart.

    It snowed heavily all day and night, and everything was white. The experienced old people in the village all said that the situation in the next year may not be good, and it has snowed so much in just a few months. Uncle Li remembers to hang on the flowerbed, and guards the flowerbed every day. He also found a few old quilts that were not in use and put them on the kennel to cover the dogs from the wind and snow.

    For two days in a row, every time Uncle Li went to feed, the old dog didn't bark, just quietly squatted on the ground and looked at Uncle Li. Uncle Li remembered the last time he heard the old dog say that his teeth were bad. Although he thought it was evil, he always made some soft and rotten things for him to eat by himself. Yesterday afternoon, Uncle Li came to feed the dog again, and the old dog gave a tentative bark this time. Uncle Li could hear it clearly, the old dog's barking was faintly asking him if he could understand it?

    Uncle Li shook his hand, this time he couldn't use auditory hallucinations to comfort himself. Fortunately, the old man was able to stabilize, so he just squatted on the ground and chatted with the old dog. Converted to human age, this old dog is almost seventy. The dog is also well-informed in life, and he can actually talk with Uncle Li quite well. One person and one dog chatted for a long time, just happened to be caught by the little stone who came to the flower garden to find his mother.

    Little Stone's name is Dong Xiaolei, the son of Yu Xiaojuan. He kept in mind the little secret of him and his beautiful brother, turned around and told Lu Lingxi what he saw. Only then did Lu Lingxi know that the little boy was actually Yu Xiaojuan's son.

    Yu Xiaojuan has done a good job in the flower garden, perhaps because the work is hard-won, and with the idea of ​​repaying her kindness, she is very concerned about the flower garden. Although Xiao Shi was by her side, she never let Xiao Shi enter the flowerbed, for fear that the children would not know the importance of making trouble in it. This is also the reason why Lu Lingxi has come here several times, but he has never seen Xiao Shi once.

    With the secret that the small stone told him, Lu Lingxi returned to the flowerbed with a strange look. Uncle Li hadn't left yet, he was carrying a pot of broth bibimbap to feed the dog. Seeing Uncle Li coming, the dogs lying in the corner all stood up and wagged their tails at Uncle Li. Uncle Li squeezed out a smile on his face full of ravines. He stroked the dogs one by one. He also stroked the old dog twice, and put the dog basin in front of them.

    Several dogs were about to gather around to eat when Yan Yue came back from outside with Da Hei. As soon as Da Hei entered the hospital, the dogs immediately dispersed. The leading old dog pushed the untouched dog basin in the direction of Da Hei and barked lowly, signaling Da Hei to eat first.

    Uncle Li glanced at Da Hei in surprise. He also raised dogs when he was young, and knew that the dog group was divided into classes. Whether it was eating or other things, the first dog came first. He knew that Da Hei was well raised by Xiaoxi, and he was smooth and smooth, but he really didn't see that Da Hei was so powerful. He could hear what the old dog meant, clearly showing respect for Da Hei and an unspeakable fear.

    When Da Hei heard the old dog's barking, he responded majestically, and then trotted all the way to squat in front of Lu Lingxi. It didn't eat it, so the dogs swarmed around in trembling. Lu Lingxi patted Da Hei's head, Da Hei raised his head and rubbed his palm in his palm, and cried out in a low voice.

    Lu Lingxi understood Da Hei's meaning, and couldn't help laughing.

    Uncle Li looked strange, but didn't think much about it. The old man has seen a lot of wind and rain in his life, and his mental ability is good, but he does not think that a person can understand the meaning of a dog. Seeing Yan Yue coming back, he was a little anxious. This time Yan Yue and Xiao Xi came over, and the old man took the initiative to recommend Xu San, and Yan Yue just brought Da Hei to find Xu San.

    Seeing that Uncle Li was in a hurry, Yan Yue nodded at Uncle Li, "It has been agreed, he will start work tomorrow."

    Uncle Li was grateful, and repeatedly assured that he would be optimistic about Xu San and would not let Xu San do anything wrong. Yan Yue smiled, he dared to use Xu San and was not afraid of Xu San's thoughts. Uncle Li didn't know that Xu San was really scared last time. Even without Uncle Li watching, he didn't dare to do anything at all. This time, Xu's three legs trembled when he saw Yan Yue bringing Da Hei over. Hearing that Yan Yue hired him to work at the flowerbed at night, Xu San was going to agree, but when he heard that he had to take care of a few dogs, everyone almost became soft.

    Yan Yue first thought that Xu San was smart and well-informed, and secondly, he also sold Uncle Li a favor, and even frightened and lured, Xu San agreed.

    The matter of Xu San was resolved, and Uncle Li didn't stay in the flowerbed too much. When he left, he called Lu Lingxi and Yan Yue to his house for dinner, but Yan Yue politely refused, they had already eaten on the way.

    Uncle Li sent away, Lu Lingxi and Yan Yue talked about the little stone. Yan Yue was very surprised when she heard that Xiao Shi was Yu Xiaojuan's child. But what was even more surprising was that Xiao Shishi said that Uncle Li could understand the barking of dogs just like him. Neither of them could ask Uncle Li for proof of this kind of thing. Yan Yue thought about it and wanted Lu Lingxi to pretend that he didn't know what to do. If it is true, compared with Xiao Shi, Uncle Li is much more reliable, and he will definitely not go out to promote it.

    The two stayed in the flower garden for one night, and then went to Qiutian flower garden to check the situation. Because the Qiutian flower garden was together with the Yongchun vegetable greenhouse, Huzi helped to check the condition of the greenhouse on the day of the snow. The begonias grown in it were not affected at all, and they were growing quite well.

    In addition to a few florists who responded very quickly, many florists were affected by the dramatic climate change, and even the horticultural market in Fengcheng was depressed. However, winter is originally a low season for green plant transactions. Except for a small peak around the Spring Festival, the usual transaction volume is much smaller than that in summer. Many florists are psychologically prepared. Flowers and green plants are not a necessities of life like vegetables, but they quickly adapted to the changes in the market.

    There are not many customers for micro gardening recently, so Lu Lingxi can focus on the cultivation of bitter grass and the reproduction of begonias. He originally planned to take a good rest in winter, but Wang Chaoliang applied for the plant variety rights of Chlorophytum for him, disrupting his plans. Lu Lingxi was grateful for the kindness of the other party, and the promotion of Chlorophytum was also a good thing, so he had to add the promotion of Chlorophytum to the winter work plan. Of course, he is only responsible for cultivation, and the specific promotion is all handed over to Yan Yue.

    After discussing with Lu Lingxi, Yan Yue deliberately found time to meet Xue Yongtong. Hearing that Yan Yue came to find him, Xue Yongtong was still thinking about what was going on? The two just met at Gao Yongliang a few days ago, and there is nothing else to do these two days? Could it be that the heavy snow has affected micro-gardening, and Yan Yue wants to ask himself for help?

    Although he was muttering in his heart, Xue Yongtong met Yan Yue for the first time. After the initial greeting, Yan Yue got straight to the point, "Is there something you need Boss Xue's help with?"

    Xue Yongtong consciously guessed Yan Yue's intention after thinking about it, and immediately said: "No problem, what is the relationship between our two families, we should help each other."

    Yan Yue chuckled lightly, knowing that Xue Yongtong had misunderstood and didn't break it, but just explained the Chlorophytum in general, especially the emphasis that they had applied for plant variety rights.

    "What? A new type of spider plant?" Xue Yongtong was taken aback.

    Yan Yue nodded and handed Wang Chaoliang's research report to Xue Yongtong. Compared with the difficulty of the layman, Xue Yongtong is an insider, and he understands the value of Chlorophytum almost after reading it. This is the same as the mutated bitter grass that Yan Yue mentioned last time. The environmental value and social value are greater than the economic value. Xue Yongtong is not a short-sighted person, and his heart is immediately moved.

    "What does Mr. Yan mean?"

    Yan Yue said simply: "Let's promote together, in the name of Micro Horticultural Technology Company."

    Xue Yongtong hesitated for a few seconds and said decisively: "Okay."

    The two negotiated the distribution of benefits, and then started the promotion of the new type of spider plant. With Xue Yongtong's contacts and Wang Chaoliang's research, the promotion of the new Chlorophytum is very smooth, and the acceptance rate among florists is extremely high. With the development of China's economy, the importance of environmental protection is increasingly valued by people. As a spider plant that can absorb harmful substances such as formaldehyde, it has always been one of the most sought after green plants in the horticultural market.

      Add direct sales and make a huge profit. The micro gardening technology company also entered the eyes of everyone in the gardening circle through this incident.
