Rebirth 70: I am a Koi

The afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the greenhouse, as if each seedling was coated with a layer of gold. I looked at the seedling, and my heart seemed to be surrounded by this warm light.

"Yes, it's about to bloom." I couldn't suppress my inner excitement. This flower seedling is a new variety that we have carefully cultivated and we have poured countless efforts into it.

As the days passed, the bud became fuller and fuller, and finally one morning, it quietly bloomed. The petals were layered, like a dream, exuding a faint fragrance, so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes off it.

"So beautiful!" Lin Xiao couldn't help but admire, "If this flower is brought to the market, it will definitely be sold out!"

I smiled confidently. This flower is just the beginning. We have many new varieties to cultivate, each with its own unique characteristics. I believe they will conquer the market.

Bai Hanchuan shared the situation of the base online and began to try live streaming to sell goods. Unexpectedly, our live streaming attracted the attention of many netizens, the live streaming room was very lively, and orders came in like snowflakes.

"Jinli, look, the number of our fans has exceeded 100,000!" Bai Hanchuan excitedly handed me the phone, and the dense barrage of comments on the screen overwhelmed me.

"Really? That's great!" I hugged Bai Hanchuan excitedly. At this moment, all the hard work and efforts turned into joy.

Thanks to our efforts, the base has not only restored its former prosperity, but also surpassed itself and become a leader in the industry. Our story has also been widely reported by the media and has become an inspirational example in the hearts of many people.

That day, a familiar figure appeared at the gate of the base. He looked at everything in front of him and a gratified smile appeared on his face.

"Long time no see." He walked towards us. Under the setting sun, his face looked particularly clear, which shocked Bai Hanchuan and me.

"It's you..." I covered my mouth, I couldn't believe my eyes, he was actually...

"Professor!" Bai Hanchuan spoke first, his tone unable to conceal his surprise and excitement. I came back to my senses, and my mind was full of thoughts. The person standing in front of us turned out to be the university professor who helped and guided us when we were in the most difficult time!

"You have done a great job, better than I thought." The professor looked around the base, his eyes full of praise. At the beginning, due to a lack of funds, the base almost couldn't be maintained. It was the professor who encouraged us and secretly contacted some entrepreneurs to invest in us, which helped us overcome the difficulties. But later, the professor went abroad for recuperation due to health reasons, and we lost contact. I didn't expect him to appear here today.

"Thanks to your help, we are where we are today." I said gratefully, "By the way, how did you know we were here?"

The professor smiled and said, "It was your news reports that drew my attention to this place. I didn't expect that the small base at the beginning has developed so well now." He paused and said, "I came back this time hoping to continue to provide you with some help. After all, I am also very pleased to see you grow step by step."

The professor's arrival has injected new vitality into our base. He brought advanced planting techniques and concepts from abroad and helped us establish a more complete management system. The children also particularly like to stay with this amiable old professor, pestering him to tell stories and teach them about various plants.

The children also performed very well in school. Not only did they rank among the top in academic performance, they also actively participated in various extracurricular activities, showing their versatility. Their growth stories also became the focus of media attention, and they were hailed as "little gardeners of the new era", bringing more exposure to our planting base.

Lin Xiao has gradually grown into a backbone force. At an industry conference, she delivered an important speech on behalf of the planting base, showing our latest research results and development plans, and won applause from the audience. Looking at her confident look, I seemed to see the fledgling girl who has now transformed into a shining new star in the industry.

Everything was going in the right direction, and our base was full of hope and vitality. However, at this moment, something unexpected happened...

The professor's arrival has injected new vitality into the base. His knowledge and experience nourish us like spring rain. But what is even more surprising is that the mysterious ally who has been silently supporting us has reappeared. That day, he came to the base, and I was surprised to find that he was a vigorous old man with a pair of scissors for pruning branches in his hand.

"You are..." I asked tentatively, with a vague guess in my mind.

He put down the scissors and smiled gently: "Children can just call me Old Wu. I was a gardener before I retired. I can't sit still, so I like to tinker with these flowers and plants."

Bai Hanchuan held Old Wu's hand and said excitedly: "We will always remember your help. If it weren't for you, our base would not have been able to develop to where it is today."

It turned out that when he was young, Old Wu traveled all over the country to study various rare flowers. After retirement, he wanted to find a place where he could make use of his remaining energy. He saw our report by chance and was moved by my and Bai Hanchuan's persistence, so he decided to support us secretly. He contacted some old friends, provided us with financial and technical support, and even personally guided us in breeding new varieties.

"You guys have done a great job, better than I thought." Old Wu looked at us with satisfaction, "I want to give it another try, and do something more meaningful together."

The joining of Lao Wu brought new hope to the base. Under his guidance, we began to try to cultivate high-end flower varieties and developed a series of flower derivative products. We introduced advanced planting technology, adopted organic fertilizers and biological control measures to ensure the quality and environmental protection of flowers.

With high-quality products and good reputation, we gradually opened up the international market. Orders from all over the world came in one after another, and our flower products appeared in international flower exhibitions, winning the favor of many international customers.

"Jinli, look!" Standing on the newly built observation deck at the base, Bai Hanchuan pointed at the busy figures in the distance, his eyes full of pride.

I followed his gaze and saw workers packing flowers to be shipped overseas in an orderly manner. Trucks loaded with hope were heading off into the distance.

"We succeeded..." I murmured to myself, my heart filled with emotion.

"No, this is just the beginning." Bai Hanchuan held my hand with a firm look in his eyes, "We want the whole world to see that from China..."

Before he finished speaking, his cell phone rang suddenly. He glanced at the caller ID and his expression changed slightly...

"Hello? ...What?" Bai Hanchuan's face turned serious. "I'll be back right away."

He hung up the phone and looked at me solemnly: "Jinli, I have to go home, my father..."

My heart tightened, "Did something happen?"

"It's not clear yet," he held my hand, "Don't worry, take care of yourself and the children. Old Wu is here too, contact me if anything happens."

I nodded and watched him leave in a hurry. Uneasy emotions spread in my heart, and I tried to calm myself down. Now is the critical moment of the base, and I can't lose my composure.

The children ran over and pulled at my clothes, "Mom, when will Dad come back?"

"Dad will be back soon," I smiled and touched their heads. "Let's go check out the new varieties in the greenhouse first, okay?"

The children cheered and followed me to the greenhouse.

Lin Xiao came over and looked at me worriedly, "Jinli, are you okay?"

“It’s okay,” I shook my head. “Don’t worry, I’ll take care of it.”

In the next few days, I suppressed my inner anxiety and devoted myself to my work. Old Wu seemed to see my uneasiness and always stayed by my side silently, giving me encouragement and support.

Finally, on the evening of the third day, Bai Hanchuan came back. He looked exhausted, but his eyes were unusually firm.

"How is it? Uncle..." I walked up to him and asked softly.

He nodded. "It's okay. We're out of danger."

I breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, that's good..."

"Jinli," he held my hand, "this incident made me realize that we have more important things to do."

"whats the matter?"

"We want the whole world to see the miracle from China..." He paused, his eyes burning, "Miracle!"

I looked at him, and a strong premonition surged in my heart. Our story has just begun...

"Let's go," he took my hand, "the children and Lin Xiao are waiting for us."

We held hands and walked towards the golden sea of ​​flowers under the sunset, where are our dreams and our future.
