The Big Landlord

Chapter 32: Planting roses at leisure

Early the next morning, the owner of the flower market sent flower seedlings. The truck was full. It was rare to meet such a big customer as Wang Ben. He didn’t want to come in person. The joy blossomed, and the knowledge of roses was imparted without reservation. After thousands of warnings and ten thousand instructions on what to pay attention to, he left with satisfaction.

"Grow flowers!"

Following Xiao Linglong's cheerful cries, Wang Ben began to work happily in the greenhouse, planting roses, which is a pleasing thing to think about. Once the flowers bloom on these acres of land, it will definitely be bright The sea of ​​flowers will be so gorgeous and spectacular.

In order to cooperate with the Valentine's Day sales, he planted two types, one is the red rose Corolla, which belongs to the top variety of red roses, and the other is a pink rose, named Yanfen. It is not heat-resistant, so he had to separate a room in the center of the greenhouse to strictly control the temperature.

Unlike other vegetables, roses can be harvested once a year. Five or six crops can bloom each year. In normal time, the first crop can be planted in the greenhouse about three months after the seedlings are planted. It will bloom again. If the nutrients from the space are used, the first flowers will bloom in more than 20 days. Now it is mid-January, and there is still about a month before Valentine's Day. The first flowers can just catch up.

Go to Linglong Space to pound out the nutrients, tear off the plastic film at the roots of the flower seedlings, and soak the flower seedlings with soil in the nutrients. After they are fully absorbed, each flower seedling can be planted.

Take out a row of trenches about 30 cm deep and 20 cm wide in the ground, put a flower seedling at intervals, and then cover a whole row of soil, even if dozens of flower seedlings are planted. Planting flower seedlings, like planting saplings, is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Wang Ben can’t hire people, so he can only work slowly.

It took seven days for Wang Ben to finally plant all 8,000 rose seedlings, but this is not the end. Planting flowers is not like iron bar yam. Pruning is a very important link. Leaves, pruning small flower buds, only through pruning can the flower seedlings grow vigorously and often produce more and better flowers.

Looking at the neatly arranged flower seedlings, when I think of the scene when it blooms, I have a feeling of anticipation. Even if I am a little busy and tired, I think it is worth it.

"Benzi, trouble you with something."

Not long after returning home, Tuesday's mother, Ma Yunxiu, appeared at the door with a smile on her face. If she was worried, she said that she had not been able to contact Zhan Wu since she called Zhan Wu earlier, and she hadn't come to Wang Ben's house deliberately for a long time.

"Mother on Tuesday, don't talk about etiquette, just tell me if you have anything," Wang Ben said very politely with a smile on his face.

"You are familiar with the city, can you take me to Zhanwu? We haven't read the book, and we can't find our way in the city," Ma Yunxiu pleaded expectantly.

"There are still more than 20 days for the New Year, so he should be back," Wang Ben said casually, he didn't want Ma Yunxiu to see Zhan Wu's current appearance with his own eyes.

"Tomorrow, the family will kill the New Year's pig group. Without him, I always feel unsatisfactory," Ma Yunxiu shook his head, very helpless.

With a sigh, she continued to confide in her heart, "Hey, I don't know what this child is doing, and there is no news at all. I often think that I can't sleep."

After standing with Ma Yunxiu for a few minutes, listening to her constantly chanting, Wang Ben remained silent and was extremely conflicted in his heart.

After bowing his head and pondering for a while, he finally said, "Mother Tuesday, you are busy at home, I'll find you, it's more convenient to walk around the city alone.

"

After bidding farewell to Ma Yunxiu and entrusting Linglong to her care, she covered her body tightly, put on her motorcycle, and rushed to Yongfeng City against the cold wind.

It was still the row of dilapidated and low-rise private houses, and the dark and cold three-bedroom house. The ground was still dirty, messy, and poor. Zhan Wu was still squatting on the sunflower seeds, watching the black and white TV, and following his scarred face. No one is there, and it is estimated that they are searching for the target outside.

Shaking hands, bumping fists, we said goodbye in this way last time, and this time we meet again in the same way.

"Book, come in and sit!"

With a smile on Zhan Wu's originally stiff face, he sent out a warm invitation. He looked at the motorcycle parked next to him in surprise, scratched the garbage on the ground with his feet, and grabbed an unknown black short-sleeved T-shirt next to him. I wiped the stool and put it not far from his seat.

"It looks like you're making a fortune?" He looked at Wang Ben up and down, and he asked slightly jokingly.

Wang Ben smiled indifferently as a response, sat down gently, his eyes narrowed slightly, and asked softly, "Is there not enough money to do other things?"

Zhan Wu didn't say a word, shrugged and smiled helplessly, lit a cigarette and smoked silently by himself. He knew that Wang Ben didn't smoke, and he didn't hand it to Wang Ben.

If you want to get the first pot of gold by robbery, you can't make too much noise, and you don't do much at all. No one is like Wang Ben, who wears a lot of money for nothing. Usually, only a few dozen people are robbed. For hundreds of dollars, he and Scarface went out to eat and drink, and there was nothing left after buying a few packs of cigarettes.

"What are you going to do and how much are you missing?" Wang Ben asked with concern.

"I want to open a hair salon, it's seven or eight thousand," Zhan Wu smiled helplessly. For him, the money was already a huge amount.

Two or three thousand yuan is enough to open a small hair salon. Where did you get so much money? Wang Ben frowned slightly and asked in confusion, "It won't be the crooked kind, right?"

"Of course, you can earn some money in a regular manner," Zhan Wu spread his palms out, as if he took it for granted.

"What's wrong with being slower," Wang Ben said solemnly, waving his palms to fan the smoke in front of him.

"I can't wait, and besides, I'm too hostile, I don't want to see others on my head, come to the door to cause trouble, and I can't do a legitimate business," Zhan Wu took a deep breath of cigarettes, breathing heavily, his face extremely cold.

There was silence in the room for a while, Wang Ben fell into contemplation. He wanted to lend a helping hand, but he didn't want to help Zhou to abuse, and he didn't want Zhan Wu to get out of the criminal path of robbery and get involved in the illegal act of pornography.

Xiao Zhanwu's temperament is very stubborn. Once a decision is made, even parents can't persuade them. If anyone bullies them, even if they are sent to someone else's house, they will call back in front of their parents. With this friend here, Wang Ben has never been bullied since he was a child.

After a long time, he finally murmured, "Your family will be reunion tomorrow, come back with me, and I will find a way for you to make money."

"I don't want to go back in disgrace like this," Zhan Wu shook his head and refused without hesitation.

Wang Ben quickly stood up, pointed at Zhan Wu and said sharply: "Do you know that your uncle on Tuesday thinks your hair has turned a lot grayer, do you know that your mother on Tuesday said you couldn't sleep all night, is face really that important! Is your life so important? Nothing but money?"

Zhan Wu frowned slightly, the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily, he threw away the cigarette butts he had not finished smoking, and rubbed the soles of his feet slowly.

"Tell them for me that I will definitely go back during Chinese New Year," he whispered after a few seconds of silence.

With two palms clasped and fists lightly touched, Wang Ben left after a brief meeting. He knew that Zhan Wu would not lie and that he would definitely do what he promised.
