Pastoral Daily Life

The appearance of Xue Yongtong was just an ordinary customer to Lu Lingxi, and he didn't pay much attention to it.On the contrary, Xue Yongtong never forgot about micro-horticulture after returning home. He took the Rieger Begonia he bought back to study and studied, and made up his mind to research which kinds of hybrid varieties of flowers it is.

Qian Lao joked that he was possessed by a demon.

Xue Yongtong was not convinced, "Aren't you curious, Mr. Qian?"

Mr. Qian's full name is Qian Yuanzheng. Before retiring, he was the vice chairman of Fengcheng Flower and Tree Association. He was also a famous horticultural engineer and a hardcore plant lover. He has been engaged in the research and introduction and cultivation of landscape plant species resources for many years.It would be a lie to say that he is not curious, but Mr. Qian has been engaged in flowers and green plants all his life, and he deeply understands a truth that sometimes the magic of nature is beyond the imagination of human beings.He couldn't see any trace of hybridization on this Rieger begonia, it was completely like the evolution of the begonia, yes, it was not a mutation but an evolution.

Mr. Qian suddenly thought of something, walked quickly to Qiu Haitang, and looked at it carefully.

Xue Yongtong was overjoyed, "Did you find anything?"

Mr. Qian shook his head, hesitated for a while and said: "This begonia is still Rieger Begonia, not a new species, but more like an evolved version of Rieger Begonia."

Xue Yongtong: "..."

Has the variation improved?If Mr. Qian hadn't been his teacher, he would have scolded him for talking nonsense.

Qian Lao looked at his expression and laughed. Strictly speaking, Xue Yongtong is not a real businessman, but is more inclined towards plant lovers.This is also what Mr. Qian appreciates about him.Those who engage in plants don't like plants, and only regard them as a means of making money. In the long run, it is a matter of putting the cart before the horse.

"That's right, there are thousands of strange plants in nature, and they are full of magic. This is the joy of our research."

Xue Yongtong also understood what Qian Lao meant, but he couldn't help but wanted to know what was going on with this begonia.

After holding back for two days, Xue Yongtong showed up at Weiyuan with a pot of rock peony in his arms.Regardless of his identity as the owner of Lvxuan Gardening, Xue Yongtong is a plant lover in the true sense, and takes good care of the flowers and plants around him.It's really not easy to find a pot of green plants that are a little bit wrong to take to micro gardening.

"Are you here?"

Lu Lingxi was a little surprised to see him, and was quite impressed with this customer who bought begonias.

Xue Yongtong smiled and greeted Lu Lingxi, only to find that there was another person in the shop.Unlike Lu Lingxi, who makes people feel comfortable just looking at it, the presence of this extra person is really too strong.Looking neither like a customer of Wei Gardening nor like a person in Wei Gardening's shop, Xue Yongtong was a little confused about the other party's identity.

Yan Yue glanced at Xue Yongtong lightly, his eyes froze slightly, and recognized him as the boss of Lvxuan Gardening.Since what happened to Qiu Tian last time, Yan Yue has specifically checked the horticultural market in Fengcheng, and learned in detail about all kinds of opponents that Wei Garden may encounter.The development momentum of micro-horticulture is too strong, and the green plants inside are too prominent, so it is hard not to attract the attention of peers.Yan Yue also hopes to prevent problems before they happen.

Judging from Lu Lingxi's reaction, Xue Yongtong didn't seem to be here for the first time, the boy obviously didn't know who he was.Yan Yue blamed himself a little. He has been busy for the past few days and only took time out today to be with the boy.Where he didn't pay attention, the boy was really not wary of people at all.

Yan Yue looked away calmly, and Lu Lingxi had already greeted her. "Are you satisfied with that pot of begonias? Is there anything I can do for you today?"

Xue Yongtong's attention was quickly attracted by the word Qiu Haitang, and he nodded, "Satisfied, I don't know how you planted it, little boss. The floral fragrance of Qiu Haitang is very special, light and elegant, and the fragrance is timeless. It is very rare to linger for a long time."

He used several adjectives in a row, and he obviously liked it very much.Lu Lingxi let go of her heart, and her eyes fell on the rock peony in his arms.

Rock peony is a kind of cactus, which belongs to perennial succulent plants.The verrucous protrusions are in the shape of a lotus, also known as the seven-star peony.The color of rock peonies is very special. The light gray is a bit like a rock. It looks lifeless, but it is very suitable for making potted plants. It is like a finely carved handicraft. It is very novel and interesting to decorate on the window sill and coffee table.

The rock peony in Xue Yongtong's arms has a very good shape, and the layers spread out like a lotus platform.From the outside, there seems to be no problem, but the mental scan shows that the vegetative state shows a lack of nutrition.

Xue Yongtong followed Lu Lingxi's gaze, and immediately put the rock peony in his arms on the cash register.

"Look, little boss, the root of this potted rock peony seems to be a little bad, what's going on?"

Lu Lingxi twirled a little soil in the flower pot and looked at it, "Did you use the nutrient soil bought at the gardening store?"

Xue Yongtong nodded.

Lu Lingxi suggested: "You'd better change some matching soil. The growth of rock peony needs soluble calcium and some other minerals. The general nutrient soil contains calcium hydroxide, which is not only difficult to absorb, but will also damage the roots of rock peony. Destruction. I suggest you use dolomitic limestone, which is very suitable for rock peony."

After listening to Lu Lingxi's words, Xue Yongtong looked at him with admiration.Of course he knew what Lu Lingxi said, but the child said it so seriously, and with the child's Qingyue voice, if he was a customer, he would also be convinced.

"Then let's change to dolomite, is it sold in the store?"

Lu Lingxi nodded, "20 yuan a pack."

"Take one pack, no, take two packs."

Facing the bright eyes of the young man, Xue Yongtong subconsciously changed his words.He somewhat understood why the micro-horticulture business was doing well. Facing the young man's smile, it was difficult for people who entered the store to go out empty-handed, and had to buy something miscellaneous.Especially for a family like him who has everything, and even traveled all the way to buy two packs of dolomite.Lvxuan Gardening imports a lot, and the wholesale price is less than eight yuan per pack.Looking at it this way, he is simply a fool.

Xue Yongtong bought Baiyun Limestone and was still reluctant to leave. The green plants in the store were too much to his liking.He strolled around as if nothing had happened, wishing he could dig Lu Lingxi into his flower garden with a lot of money.After turning around, Xue Yongtong stopped in front of the table with Qiu Haitang.Four pots of begonias are placed together, with different colors, very eye-catching.But among the four pots of begonias, only one pot has the flavor he bought.Although the other plant types are beautiful and the flowers are full, they are not the same taste.He remembered that Mr. Qian also liked this pot of begonias, so he endured it and said: "I also bought this pot, and the little boss will change it to a better pot."

"Okay, wait a minute."

Xue Yongtong came to spend once, and sighed when he went out with Qiu Haitang in his arms.There are all kinds of flower pots at home, and he even picked the most expensive purple sand pot in the store. If Mr. Qian knew it, he would die of laughter.

As soon as he left, Yan Yue put down the notebook in his hand and looked at Lu Lingxi who was keeping accounts. "The customer just now is a regular customer? Why don't I have any impression?"

Lu Lingxi shook her head, "It's not considered a regular customer, I've been here twice."

Yan Yue remembered that Xue Yongtong had been circling around those pots of begonias, seemingly unintentionally said: "He seems to like those pots of begonias very much."

Lu Lingxi laughed, "The last time he bought begonias too."

Speaking of this, Lu Lingxi came to her senses.The customer picked out the evolved begonias twice. When these begonias are placed together, it is actually difficult to tell the difference at first glance.The fact that the other party was able to pick at a glance didn't seem to be because he thought he knew a little bit, but that he knew a lot.In this case, the fruit vine last time and the rock peony this time seem a little strange.

Lu Lingxi frowned slightly, Yan Yue felt a little regretful looking at it.The young man didn't understand anything, and he was worried that the young man would be cheated in a place where he couldn't look after him, but it really made the young man understand the dangers of the human heart, and he felt a little bit reluctant.

"what happened?"

"I feel that this guest is a bit strange. He seems to understand these things quite well, but some of the questions he asked in the two visits seem to be unclear, which is a bit inconsistent." Lu Lingxi said seriously.

"Could it be that our begonias are planted so well that competitors buy them back for research?" Yan Yue hypothesized deliberately jokingly.

Lu Lingxi laughed when she heard this.I don't care anymore.He really wasn't afraid of competitors. Qiu Haitang had evolved, so he couldn't see anything from it at all.His confident expression fell into Yan Yue's eyes, and Yan Yue stretched out his hand to touch his face itchingly, "So confident, aren't you afraid?"

"Of course." Lu Lingxi affirmed, "My method is unique."

Layers of smiles appeared in Yan Yue's eyes, he quickly pinched Lu Lingxi's face, and said in a low voice, "My Xiaoxi is also unique."

Lu Lingxi looked away somewhat unnaturally, the tips of her ears turned slightly red.

Yan Yue looked at him with gentle eyes, but he was thinking about Xue Yongtong in his heart. Xue Yongtong's reputation in Fengcheng's horticultural circle is not bad, but people's hearts are unpredictable, so it's better to keep an eye on the young man.

When it was almost noon, Wei Garden had no customers for the time being. Lu Lingxi was thinking about La Yanyue's reconciliation, when she received a call from Wang Shuxiu.

During this period of time, Wang Shuxiu looked at a few faces one after another, but there was no one that was particularly suitable, either because the price was too high or the location was not good.Xiao Feng called her today and mentioned that there happened to be a small house near Hongfu Community that wanted to sublet.I used to work in a small restaurant, and the owner and his family wanted to go back to their hometown, and the house was anxiously waiting to be rented out, so I asked Wang Shuxiu if it was interesting.

Xiao Feng mentioned that the price of the door was reasonable and the location was convenient, Wang Shuxiu was a little moved, thinking of calling Lu Lingxi to accompany her to see it.

"Mom, wait for me, I'll be there right away."

Lu Lingxi wanted to get to Wang Shuxiu's address, hung up the phone and was about to go out.It happened that Yan Yue was here, so he could stay and watch the shop.

Yan Yue was a little helpless, he deliberately took time to accompany Lu Lingxi, but after a while Lu Lingxi was about to go out, he couldn't follow him, so he had to stay in the shop alone.

"I'll be back soon, and Dahei will stay in the store obediently and be obedient."

The first sentence Lu Lingxi said to Yan Yue, and the second sentence was to Dahei.Dahei let out a low cry, and rubbed against Lu Lingxi, unwilling to stay.Lu Lingxi patted its head patiently, "Dahei is obedient." Dahei is getting longer and stronger now, and it is inevitable that some people will be afraid when taken out during the day, and it is not comfortable at all to wear a muzzle.

Yan Yue looked at Dahei's shameless behavior with envious eyes, feeling indescribably jealous, stupid dog!
