Chapter 0065. Hobby of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences?
Lou Ning knew that the changes he made today would definitely have a big impact on Xie Mingliu and Fang Xinwei.
But fortunately, she had to find a way to get rid of her own pepper field first. Now she might as well give them some 'homework' to avoid causing trouble for herself.
"Pearl, you're finally here!" The Academy of Agricultural Sciences is indeed not far away, and the ground is much flatter than it was in Mian Village. Lou Ning can only run at a slow pace for fifteen minutes.
A bent-over little old man was walking at the gate of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, accompanied by two assistants who were dumbfounded. When he saw Lou Ning running over, he said with uncontrollable excitement,
"It's done!"
"Is it done?" When Lou Ning heard what the other party said, there was still a little bit of Xie Mingzhu's depressed consciousness in his body, and it was immediately washed away, making Lou Ning suddenly energetic, "Let's go! Go over and have a look!
"
"Okay, okay! I've been waiting for this day for a long time!" The little old man obviously admired Lou Ning's behavior of not caring about putting things away and going to the fields immediately. He said with a smile, "These are the contagious diseases of peppers."
The disease gave us a terrible headache before, but if we can use natural methods and introduce corresponding natural enemies, without disturbing the basic ecology, we can certainly increase the yield of peppers."
When the other party thought of Lou Ning's identity, he couldn't help but say regretfully,
"I think you don't want to build any bonsai anymore. It's a mess every day and there's no future. Although the things sold by our Academy of Agricultural Sciences are not as expensive as bonsais, the cumulative effect is quite impressive!"
In her last life, Lou Ning had realized how developed and profitable the agricultural products on her home planet were. If they were managed well, it would certainly be possible to kill the serious bonsai business instantly.
However, she is not alone after all. In addition to completing her own personal tasks, she must also consider Xie Mingzhu herself.
"Well... I still have to do things at home." Lou Ning knew that the little old man would definitely be disappointed, so he smiled and said, "So, I hope to be able to cultivate peppers by myself. If I can
If they regard it as a bonsai material, then it will be quite good news for the Academy of Agricultural Sciences and myself."
Of course she couldn't give up on her Shennong plan, so she could find a balance between her and Xie Mingzhu's needs.
"...use peppers to make bonsai?" When Lou Ning said this, the little old man and the two assistants looked quite surprised.
It should be said that they had heard of people using sweet potato vines as bonsai before, but that probably belonged to the Academy of Agricultural Sciences or a personal hobby.
It was proposed so seriously that the bonsai created by individuals for their special hobbies should be expanded into the official bonsai market──
Not only is the risk very high, but it has to be said that no matter how good Xie Mingzhu’s idea is, he will definitely suffer in terms of selling price.
The collection of bonsai has high artistic value, and a good bonsai can even be preserved by descendants for several generations.
Although Xie Mingzhu's idea is good, it is not practical. Although peppers can have a long lifespan, they are only edible. After the fruiting begins, it is generally difficult for peppers that are more than one year old to continue to produce good fruits.
Therefore, the ornamental value will only become lower and lower, and it is unlikely that it will be as beautiful as it was at the beginning.
The overall time cannot be more than a year and a half. If Xie Mingzhu really wants to make a name for herself in the bonsai world, I am afraid she cannot get around this hard flaw. Even though she came to the Academy of Agricultural Sciences to study peppers so seriously, there are some
Where the innate conditions are, I am afraid it is a problem that no matter how hard you try, there is no way to overcome it.
"Junior sister, your idea is very good. There are indeed farmers in the south who specialize in this. It is not a problem to make more than a million a year." One of the assistants pushed up his glasses and said seriously to Lou Ning, "But
With its scale and selling price, I’m afraid it would be difficult for you to put it in your home, right?”
More than just dissatisfaction? I am afraid that the entire Xie family will decide at the same time to throw this rebellious junior out!
"What's that? I've got a sweet potato bonsai. Someone offered me 80,000 yuan a pot, but I have no intention of selling it!" A loud voice came from the other end, followed by another man with gray hair holding a green bush in his hand.
The old man with tender branches and swaying branches came over and said, "After years of pruning and stretching, my sweet potatoes can now make radial arches with her baby. I didn't even agree to Academician Liu's offer to borrow them as a wedding entrance before.
!”
"How dare you, Xiaolu, say that our agricultural products have no future as bonsai!"
"No, Senior Su, wasn't I just analyzing the Xie family's situation to help Junior Sister analyze it?" Senior Brother Lu felt unjustly accused of being targeted, "If another person had come here, I wouldn't have bothered to say so much.
Woolen cloth!"
"Old Su, you have to admit that compared to their bonsais, which cost millions, your 80,000 sweet potatoes and my 150,000 tea trees are really nothing." The little old man straightened up and touched them lovingly.
Lao Su held the sweet potato vine in his hand, and then said helplessly, "So, for the sake of Mingzhu's future, we'd better not continue to exchange daydreams with her about bonsai that can sell for millions."
"Bah! It doesn't matter whether it's expensive or cheap. After all, the plant depends on its shape, color, age, and the value of the pot it's planted in." Lao Su obviously knows the market of bonsai and the parts that everyone is currently looking for. "
You can talk about these things, including my sweet potatoes, your tea trees, and Academician Meng’s beans. But Xiao Xie’s pepper looks like it has great potential!"
"...You can't just say nice things just because you are from Sichuan and someone is willing to help you discover peppers!" The little old man had a headache when the old man insisted on it. Xie Mingzhu was stubborn enough.
If she has more supporters, she might as well let them go directly to heaven, "The Xie family has a strict internal hierarchy. If you don't want to harm others, you'd better put away those dirty ideas of yours first!"
After hearing what the little old man said, both Senior Brother Lu and Academician Su quickly became quiet.
Although they had only known Xie Mingzhu for more than half a month, they were very fond of this little girl who worked neatly and had a flexible mind.
Due to the cruel competition among the Xie family, even though they have a special liking for crop-type bonsais, and some people even use a pot of rice as a bonsai, everyone thinks it's pretty good.
But after all, this involves Xie Mingzhu's future survival and development, and it's not like they don't have a yardstick─
