The Garden Life of a Little Gardener

Holding the hand of the elder nephew, the uncle of the Chen family sent him back to the hot kang in his home, while he took off his shoes and followed him, not forgetting to continue to ask him about the topics he cared about.

"Ah Quan, are you sure you can get all the training techniques of the Blue Demon Girl from the old professor at the school, including the dyeing agent?"

The so-called blue enchantress is actually a processed flower. It uses a coloring agent and dyeing assistant to make a coloring agent, and sprays and dyes the flowers into shapes.

At present, blue roses or Chinese roses that grow naturally in the world are very rare, and those "blue roses" or blue enchantresses sold in the market are all artificially dyed products.

Regular blue enchantresses start dyeing during the growth period of flowers, long-term special watering and dip-dyeing, so that the color can be evenly and naturally attached to the petals, the color will not fade easily, and the shelf life of the flowers is also relatively long. Longer.

For authentic blue enchantress, the dye used must be food-grade, so as to ensure safety, but the price is also relatively expensive.

But even if it is expensive, the dyeing agent of those genuine blue enchantresses is still very difficult to buy, not to mention the planting technology.

In a word, if you want to grow high-quality blue bewitching girls, in addition to choosing the right flowers for dyeing, the dyeing agent and how to dye the flowers during breeding are the most important things for blue bewitching girls. Core secrets.

Uncle Chen’s family used to covet this kind of flower species with a relatively high price, but domestic companies or individuals who are qualified to produce dyeing agents and have the technology to grow high-quality blue enchantresses attach great importance to the protection of technology, and easily Not being able to spread it to outsiders made the uncle of the Chen family feel helpless.

Now the children who went out from their own village came back with the full set of skills of the blue enchantress. This is simply a shot in the arm for the two surname villages that are gradually becoming quiet.

Probably because he felt that a shot of cardiotonic was not enough, Zhou Quan, who was chewing leek scrambled eggs, gave another great gift.

I saw him looking for his favorite red mushrooms in the leftover old hen stewed red mushrooms yesterday, and said: "Not only the blue enchantress, but also fresh-cut varieties such as Louis XIV, tiger eye stone, etc. It’s really a pity for those guys who are working on agricultural science.”

The big cousin's eyes lit up when he heard this, his expression was as if gold had suddenly fallen from the sky, Zhou Quan's back felt chills from that look, and his hair was about to stand on end.

Seeing this, my aunt grabbed the feather duster from the kang, tapped lightly on the back of her son's hand, and warned: "Speak well, don't scare the child."

The uncle, who still couldn't hide his excitement, clasped his hands together, rubbed each other up and down, looked at Zhouquan expectantly and asked, "Ah Quan, when will your teachers and students from the imperial capital bring the flowers to you?" Send me seeds or cuttings? And the dyeing agent of the blue enchantress, that is the most important, how much technology transfer fee do we need to pay? How much dyeing agent can the other party provide us in a year?"

"We have to discuss the specific time. They mean to try planting in a small area first, so I want to clean up the house and the flower shed first. After all, no one has lived in it for several years. It's taken care of."

"Yes, we have to clean up the flower shed first. I'll go with you this afternoon. Basically, just wipe it and sweep it. The electricity should still be there. I'll ask Wenmao to check the wiring for you later. If there is no wire No problem, just push the switch up and it will work.”

After arranging things, the uncle's mood finally eased down.

He sat cross-legged on the kang, took out a stick of Zhongnanhai that Zhou Quan had brought back, put it under his nose and smelled it, but he didn't smoke, because he knew that his nephew didn't like the smell of cigarettes very much.

Putting the piece of Zhongnanhai behind his ear, Chen Youde sighed softly and said, "Ah Quan, don't blame Uncle for losing his composure just now, Uncle has had a hard time these years. As the head of a village, I don't expect to be promoted and get rich, but I have to do something for the villagers, right? But seeing the income of the villagers dropping day by day, as the village head, I have no choice but to watch and worry, and the more I think about it, the more I get angry."

Zhou Quan understands his eldest cousin very well. Since he became the head of the village with two surnames, this cousin has been working hard.

From publicizing national policies, down to all kinds of trivial matters in the village, he is also responsible for communicating various relationships between villagers and the town government.

Grassroots work is not easy to do, but the previous generation of village heads of the two surnamed villages have done a very good job. Whether it is building flower gardens or encouraging learning to cook to master a skill, it is a good way to increase villagers' income.

For more than ten years, the annual income of the villagers in the two-surnamed village has topped the list of the entire town. It has always been a glorious village where farmers in the city and county get rich and become well-off. As the village head of this village, the pressure of the big cousin can be imagined.

Especially in the past few years, the income that the flower garden can bring to the villagers has become less and less, and the profits have become thinner and thinner. The burden on the shoulders of the uncle who is the village chief is getting heavier and heavier.

Zhou Quan knew that his uncle had always felt guilty, that he had not led the village well, and that he was ashamed of those villagers and elders who trusted him.

Zhou Quan, who has always known that his uncle is a troubled man, also wants to help him, but he doesn't know how to do it.

Just before he came back this time, through the students who stayed in the school, he knew that the Agricultural College had a plan to popularize their grades in some subjects, so he took the initiative to find him.

The alma mater still takes good care of its graduates, so after Zhou Quan approached him, the disciplines in charge of agronomy and agricultural engineering promised to provide him with appropriate help.

There is also an old professor who specializes in cultivating roses and roses, and promised him that he would provide him with precious and high-quality fresh-cut flowers, cuttings and a full set of planting techniques.

Who doesn't want their hometown to get better and better?Who doesn't want the days of relatives and friends around them to be more and more prosperous?

Now that there is this opportunity and conditions, Zhou Quan must seize the opportunity and try boldly.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhou Quan shared some of his thoughts with his cousin.

The uncle who listened very seriously nodded repeatedly, expressing his approval and support for his plan.

After the conversation, the uncle kept sighing: "It's better to read books. Knowledge is wealth. It's true. Things that we can't do anything on our side will be difficult for people with knowledge and skills." It’s not a problem, just give some support casually, it’s enough for us to benefit from it for several years.”

The little aunt held Zhou Quan's hand and said with distress: "You are so far away and you still miss the village. Your grandparents will be very relieved if they know. It's just a pain for you. A college student is going back to the village. It will accompany us to tend the fields."

"I've thought about it. If Ah Quan wants to work in the city, his aunt and I will take care of him here in the flower shed. He can do whatever he wants, and it will definitely not delay the child."

"I really don't need a cousin. Since I'm back, I plan to settle in the village. If I want to stay in the city, I don't want to come back in the imperial capital. In terms of prosperity, there are few cities that can surpass the imperial capital, right? Big cousin, No matter how good the city is, it is not my home, this is the place where I was born and raised, I will tell you that last night was the best sleep I have had in the past few years when I have been out."

My aunt felt even more distressed when she heard that, she held Zhou Quan's hand tightly and said, "So you couldn't sleep well in the city? No wonder you lost so much weight when you came back. I said that outside is not a place to raise people. Look at it." Our child is suffering, no, I have to make up for you."

Said the old lady went to the ground, picked up the kitchen knife in the kitchen, and went to the chicken coop.

As she walked, she kept muttering: "There are more than a dozen old hens in the nest, which are enough for Ah Quan to eat until the summer. But this is not enough, I have to keep two nests. Next year, Ah Quan Only then can there be chickens to eat. Well, I will go to other people in the village to ask if they can share some old hens."

Seeing this, Zhou Quan hurriedly chased after him and shouted, "Auntie, keep the hen under the knife, and if I eat it according to your idea, I will have to go to the weasel!!!"
