"You also grow tassels?"

Yang Wanli, who was leading the way, turned his head and asked in surprise: "Elder brother also knows about tassels?" As soon as he said the words, he realized that tassels were not a big deal. There was a sense of underestimating people in this question, so he hurriedly changed the subject.

"When I was in college, I was bored. I did some research on tassels, and I also had some experience in planting. Tassels are selling well in the market now, and I don't have to worry about reducing them in a few years, so I follow the trend and want to make a little money. Without the technology of sprouting, I can only Cultivated plants. Although the cycle is slower and the income is less, it is better than safety."

Zhang Taiping didn't pay much attention to Yang Wanli's words, and said with a smile: "The reason why I know about Tassels is because I heard online that there is a plan to have a [-] mu tassel garden there, and that's all."

Yang Wanli was noncommittal to Zhang Taiping's words, could he recognize it at a glance if he didn't understand?It's just that everyone knows the truth of making light words, and you can't take everything too seriously. Even old friends who have known each other for many years will have reservations about what they say, let alone someone who seems to be only dating for the first time.He smiled and said nothing, and led Zhang Taiping through the tassel garden.

Behind the Tassel Garden is a nursery planned in blocks and neatly arranged.Along the way, there are quite a lot of tricks, most of which are seedlings that are not as tall as their waists.

The house is surrounded by a garden in the center.Chrysanthemum, hibiscus and Chinese rose are the most beautiful at present.

Even if they are both chrysanthemums, their attitudes are different.Some are elegant and generous, some are flamboyant, some are as magnificent as a rainbow, and some are as white as frost and snow; the yellow ones are dazzling, the red ones are charming, and the white ones are elegant and dignified. Tao Qian, who "doesn't bend his waist for five buckets of rice", only loves the chrysanthemums, which are in full bloom, cold and arrogant.For the chrysanthemums, he wrote the eternal sentence "picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence, and seeing Nanshan leisurely".

The chrysanthemums are brilliant, and the hibiscus is not bad either.

Wood hibiscus, also known as magnolia, is named after the flower "how beautiful it is", and another kind of flower color is called drunken hibiscus.Hibiscus is a deciduous shrub, which should bloom after the first frost, but after continuous improvement and cultivation with modern technology, the flowering period is greatly advanced.In the small pond, her beautiful appearance like a beauty's first drunkenness, and her chic and refined fairy posture are reflected.The red posture is dotted on the surface of the rippling pool, the red is obsessed, and the red is intoxicating.

Not only the flower appearance is not inferior to the chrysanthemum, even the related legends are better than the chrysanthemum.In the Song Dynasty, it was rumored that in the illusory fairyland, there was a city of hibiscus full of red flowers.It is said that after Shi Manqing's death, people still met him. During this dream-like encounter, Shi Manqing said that he had become the lord of Furong City.Therefore, later generations took Shi Manqing as the flower god of October hibiscus.

Just when Zhang Taiping felt that his eyes were too busy, a low-pitched dog barking came from behind him, "Wow, woof."

Zhang Taiping turned around, a ball of fiery red leaped towards him, and came to him in an instant.His hair is shiny and fluffy, his mouth is as thick as a lion's, and his frame is tall. His height can reach the middle of Zhang Taiping's thigh. It is [-] centimeters without measuring one meter, and he is as strong as a calf.If you don't take a closer look, you really think a majestic lion is rushing head-on.

"Ah Lei, be quiet." Yang Wanli's half-love and half-rebuke voice came.The big dog immediately stopped barking, and blew past Zhang Taiping's legs like the wind, and when it reached Yang Wanli's feet, it hugged his legs like a child acting like a baby, and wagged its tail wildly like a broom.

Yang Wanli patted the big dog's body, raised his head and said, "This is my big dog named A Lei."

Zhang Taiping loved big dogs very much in his last life, but he never had the chance to adopt one due to physical problems. He also browsed many famous dogs from all over the world on the Internet.There are not many dogs with such a tall body, but the Tibetan Mastiff has such obvious characteristics.

"This is a Tibetan mastiff!" Although he asked in a questioning tone, he was so sure.Make no secret of the love in your eyes.

"Well, this is indeed a purebred Tibetan mastiff. I asked a friend to bring it back from Tibet. It is now one and a half years old." There was a little pride in his tone.

"It's really enviable!" Zhang Taiping exclaimed.

Yang Wanli stood up and grinned and said, "Hehe, I don't have many hobbies. Apart from flowers and trees, I only keep dogs. There is a Su Mu tied to the northwest and southeast corners of the garden, and a German black dog to the northeast and southwest corners. back."

Zhang Taiping looked at A Lei, a Tibetan mastiff standing by his legs, and said, "Your A Lei looks fierce, but I feel he is too wild."

"There's no way around that. His parents are both wild Tibetan mastiffs in Tibetan areas. If they were in Tibetan areas, they could go to the wild for training. But here they are completely confined in a small circle, and there are not many opportunities to contact the outside world, let alone wild. .” Yang Wanli said with regret.

Zhang Taiping pondered for a while and said: "I also like big dogs very much, and I will raise a few big dogs at that time. My home is in the Qinling Mountains. If I have time, I can lead the dogs deep into the Qinling Mountains. Know and know."

Yang Wanli was overjoyed when he heard this, and said, "I didn't expect that brother Zhang is also a fellow, so he will have to bother me at that time, haha"

With a creak, the door was pushed open from the inside. "What makes you so happy?" Followed by a lively and beautiful young woman.

"Why did you come to the garden? Who is watching the child?" Yang Wanli asked hastily.

"Our mother is at home on vacation today, so I'll come over to take a look, what's the matter? Why don't you welcome me?" The young woman said with an angry smile.

"Do I dare not welcome you?" Then he turned to Zhang Taiping and said, "Hehe, this is my wife, Zhuang Wan."

Zhang Taiping smiled and nodded with the other party.

Yang Wanli turned back to Zhuang Wan and said, "Xiao Wan, I met an old friend today, Brother Zhang Taiping. You can get us some dishes, and Brother Zhang and I will have a few drinks later."

After speaking, he turned around and asked Zhang Taiping with a smile: "Are you confused by the term old friend?"

Zhang Taiping nodded and replied: "You have known me for a long time?"

Yang Wanli tugged at Zhang Taiping's sleeve and said, "Come, come, let's go in and have a cup of tea before chatting slowly."

Without any explanation, he dragged Zhang Taiping, who was puzzled, into the house.After soaking in West Lake Longjing, the two parties sat down, and then they explained the reason.

"Speaking of which, we are still classmates in junior high school."

Zhang Taiping frowned and thought for a while, then looked at Yang Wanli's face, one face after another flashed in his mind, but there was no impression that coincided with his eyes.

Yang Wanli continued: "Do you remember the 'four-eyed monkey'?"

"Four-eyed monkey?" A distant and vague memory flooded in like a flood.The 'four-eyed monkey' in my memory is dark and short, and wears glasses.I heard that my father is the mayor of Yin Town, but the strange thing is that he was always bullied by his classmates at school, and some gangsters outside the school even blackmailed him.However, he couldn't get in touch with the talkative and cheerful person in front of him.

"Surprised, aren't you? Hehe, the changes in these years are indeed a bit big, and it's reasonable not to recognize them." He took a sip of tea and said, "I remember one time I was blocked at the school gate again. It happened that I had no money that day, and others saw I pretended I didn’t see it. At that time, I was so scared that I was about to be punched. At that time, Brother Zhang came out of school and rescued me with one sentence. To be honest, I was thinking at the time, I will Remember it forever. Hehe."

Zhang Taiping took a sip of tea, although he remembered people, he had no impression of these things.I can only lament that Zhang Taiping in the past still had some chivalrous hearts.

The food was ready quickly, and due to the rush of time, it was home-cooked.After eating and drinking enough, Zhang Taiping looked at the sun which had already set to the west.

Yang Wanli is also a wonderful person, he knows the meaning when he hears the strings.He stood up and said, "Come on, Brother Zhang, let's have a look at the saffron." Take it?head, and Zhang Taiping walked back around the house.

The main cultivation behind the house is grape seedlings, ranging from high to low, and there are obviously freshly planted ones.

Zhang Taiping couldn't help asking: "What kind of grape seedlings do you have here?"

Yang Wanli said as he walked in front: "In recent years, more people have grown grapes, cherries, and walnuts, so the varieties of grape seedlings are relatively complete. There are more than Beauty Finger, White Banana, Jufeng, Tengren, Hutaiba, etc. Among them, Tengren and Hutaiba have sold better in the past two years. The main reason is that the fruits of these two varieties are recognized by the people in the vicinity and sell well, so these two varieties are the first choice for fruit farmers to plant."

Seeing that Zhang Taiping didn't speak, he said: "Tengren is mainly famous for being large and juicy. If it is properly managed, the water will be sufficient when it blooms and bears fruit. Then when it matures, the particles will expand with the color change. When the color reaches deep red, A single particle can be as big as a ping-pong ball. As for Hutaiba, it is famous for its color and taste. The individual particles of Hutaiba are not as unexpected as Tengren, but the advantage is that the fruit is tightly clustered and firm, and when ripe, the color will change. It turns deep purple, covered with a layer of purple light frost, like a cluster of sapphires, very gratifying. Besides, the juice is less and the taste is stronger. Once you taste one, the sweet and refreshing taste lingers on the tip of the tongue for a long time, which is quite garrulous. I don’t know the trend of meat flavor.”

"These two kinds are both affordable and attractive, and are deeply loved by people, and there are many people who even plant them." Pointing to the nursery just planted by the roadside, he said, "Well, the Hutaiba seedlings were out of stock some time ago. , these were inserted recently."

Zhang Taiping is no stranger to cultivating grape seedlings. There are two methods: transplanting seedlings and seedlings.Both methods have their advantages and disadvantages.The method of inserting seedlings is to cut off the branches of old trees, and the cut parts are treated with chemicals (mainly auxin), inserted in the soil specially prepared for seedlings or directly soaked in nutrient solution, and wait for the roots to grow. Can.This method takes less time.The seedling method is much simpler to do, only need to sow the seeds in special soil, but embryo germination, rooting, and seedlings are a complete process, so it takes a long time.However, the survival rate of the fruit seedlings cultivated from seeds is high, and the later development momentum is much better than that of the fruit seedlings from transplanting.

The best season for planting vines is not spring, but winter.Planting in winter is conducive to the growth and development of rhizomes. It can show a good growth momentum in the coming year and shorten the time for early fruiting.In fact, most fruit trees are best planted in winter.

Passing through the nursery, behind is a garden that has already produced fruit.An old man under the tree saw someone coming in, stopped to watch for a while, and then buried himself in his work.

Yang Wanli Yaoyao introduced: "That's an old man in our district, please come and help me take care of the garden."

After hesitating for a while, Yang Wanli said again: "Brother Zhang, I still need to explain something clearly to you. I lost money for planting this saffron. The climate here is very different from that in Tibetan areas, and it is difficult to control the growth of saffron. Optimum weather, so there is almost no harvest. If you want to plant, you need to think twice."

Zhang Taiping said with a smile: "I understand what you mean. I don't expect to make money from this, I just want to try."

Yang Wanli didn't say anything, and led the way ahead.
