Zhang Lao looked at Li Qingming expectantly.

Although there are two people here, Zhang Lao's social experience makes it extremely easy for him to judge that the two people who came to visit today are not the youngest president of the consortium in the Federation, but the young chef who has just become famous.

After learning the information about the visitor, Zhang Lao deduced that his potted plant, which could not grow at all, might be related to catering. Maybe a dish. However, this growth is not easy, and Zhang Lao tried it a few times, and after the taste was very strong, he never tried it again.

However, although Zhang Lao suspected that it had something to do with catering, and he didn't have any ability to cultivate it well, it didn't mean that he was going to transfer it to Li Qingming. He's not a bad guy, he doesn't have any consciousness of adult beauty, and for him, everything is a transaction.

If you have the right chips, I'll trade with you. No, then I'm sorry. I'm not a bad person.

As for the disease of this bonsai, that's your threshold fee. If you don't know this and can't solve it, then you don't qualify for his reception.

Qin Heluo looked at Li Qingming. She had never seen this potted plant, so naturally she had no way of knowing what was wrong with it. This can only be counted on by Li Qingming. What he proposes must have a solution.

"Elder Zhang, I don't know what kind of illness he had, just by dictation. I hope to see it with my own eyes!" Li Qingming said.

Zhang Lao nodded.

"Two, please follow me!" Zhang Lao personally led the way this time, and after walking through the garden and coming to a glass balcony room, Li Qingming saw a sunny garden room filled with various potted plants.

Li Qingming silently counted in his heart, there were seven kinds of roses in it, as well as three kinds of orchids, and some things that Li Qingming couldn't recognize. This is completely different from the plane trees, green pines and green grass that are all over the mountains in Jiangcheng.

In Jiangcheng, it is too difficult to see a bouquet of flowers. Although the greenery is shining, flowers are extremely rare. Whether there is Qin Heluo's family or not, Li Qingming has not been there, nor has he cared about this matter. But in the mountain city, in this Zhang's hometown, seeing so many potted plants, this is really too exaggerated.

"Isn't it strange, why do I have so many potted plants here, and they are all rare in the outside world?" Zhang Lao smiled, indescribably proud.

More than money, Zhang Lao has long been not rare. He loves to fight flowers with people now, who has it, he doesn't have it, he has to find a way to get a pot, and it can't be worse than the other party. Whoever doesn't have it, he has it, so why should he call someone to appreciate it together.

In the mountain town, he is the famous "Kao". Of course, this sounds a bit bullying. What you don't have, you always have to get a pot, not worse than the other party, or even better than the other party. This is what the other party doesn't have, you deadlift people to come over to appreciate it, and you love to show off too much.

Does anyone like that? If young people do that, it's really annoying. But at Mr. Zhang's age, he is seventy years old, a lot of age, and this kind of behavior is okay. This will be seen as an old urchin. What's more, Zhang Lao will not show off when he meets people, at least those who can be shown off by him are his friends, or occasionally show off to some juniors he looks down on.

Usually, which of these young people can be pulled by Zhang Lao to show off in his garden sun room, then this young man will definitely soar in the mountain city. Therefore, in the mountain city, I don't know how many young people are eager to be 'showoff' by Zhang Lao.

But today, at this moment, Zhang Lao just took Li Qingming and Qin Heluo to the sun room in this garden, although there was a smug look on the corner of his mouth, but he didn't introduce it. This also shows that Zhang Lao has not looked at the two of them differently yet.

Among the many potted plants, Li Qingming saw the pot of green onions at a glance

No way, compared to those flowers, green onions are too maverick. The green onion seedlings that grow in the sky, against the backdrop of the flowers around, are so extraordinary.

It's just that at this moment, the leaves of the green onion are already yellow, and not only the tip is yellow, but even yellow to the middle. Li Qingming's family has also planted green onions before, this kind of thing, the growth is extremely vigorous, you don't have to worry about it, it will grow in a few days. Then you can eat it when cutting a little. After one night, it almost grew back again.

It doesn't need to be too big, as long as the washbasin is planted with green onions in a small area, then basically you don't have to worry about green onions when you eat at home. Of course, in addition, there are also leeks, garlic, and ginger that can be grown at home. This kind of thing, growing extremely wild, doesn't care much about the environment. As for fertilization, generally speaking, there is no need for how to fertilize at home, just natural photosynthesis.

Of course, simple photosynthesis, which does not grow fast, and does not grow much, just a little. Therefore, many homes will use rice washing water to ferment it and then irrigate. However, although this kind of rice washing has some nutrients, the flavor of the fermented rice washing water is particularly strong and very nastic. Not only that, but it is also very easy to provoke flies and mosquitoes.

However, it can't stand its low cost, so many elderly people still like to use fermented rice water to water flowers and the like.

Normally, just buy a little fertilizer and fertilize it. This will grow very fast and very thick. However, there are very few people who buy chemical fertilizer to water such a little green onion and leeks grown at home.

Originally, this flower raising has never been an easy job, in addition to liking, planting a little green onion and the like, but also hoping that their own family can eat green food. As a result, if you still apply fertilizer, no matter what organic fertilizer is or not, it is still toxic.

In this case, there are very few people who apply fertilizer.

So in most cases, it is either natural photosynthesis or fermented rice washing water. Of course, in addition to this, there is also an extremely out-of-the-box one, and this number is even less. Basically, in 10,000 households that grow people, you may only be able to see that one.

In such a rare situation, it is natural fertilizer.

This natural fertilizer is naturally the excrement of the human body. This, to be honest, tastes greater. But it's more nutritious, and it's very good for the crops that are grown. But the problem is that it's disgusting.

Although since ancient times, the fertilizer in this field has been these things. Now, I don't need to use this anymore, but use chemical fertilizers. This person has been eating for thousands of years, what's wrong with natural fertilizers!

That's true, but it's really unappetizing for you to do it at home. Especially nowadays, most families are not short of such a little money. The result is good, in order to save such a little money, the whole family has 10,000 taels of gold, which few people can bear.

Not only that, but it is easier to attract flies and mosquitoes than fermented rice washing water. And the smell is simply fragrant. The neighbors can't stand it. It can be said that if you have a grudge against your neighbor and want to take revenge, don't scold him, plant a little green onion, ginger, garlic on the edge of his balcony, and then fertilize it, as long as the wind is in the right direction, make sure that his house stinks. This smell, even if you close the door and window, it will slowly waft in.

People are extremely sensitive to this taste.

Li Qingming's family used fermented rice water. He's fed up with that sour taste. But it's true, it's growing well.

"Chef Li, I don't know if you have any opinions, as long as you can put forward some feasible suggestions, I am grateful!" Zhang Lao looked forward to it.

Qin Heluo looked at Li Qingming with blazing eyes on the side. She can't help it, as far as her understanding of potted plants is concerned, if she can solve this problem, Zhang Lao has already found someone to solve it.

Therefore, Zhang Lao didn't ask her at all, because he knew that she couldn't solve it. So, can Li Qingming solve it?

Li Qingming didn't answer, his brows tightened, he walked around, looked at it, and pondered for a long time.

Zhang Lao didn't say anything. He was patient with that. At least when it comes to bonsai, he is very patient.

When everyone thought that Li Qingming had an idea, Li Qingming walked slowly again, looked at it, and then stopped, this time pondering for a longer time.

Several times, Wu Zhenghua couldn't bear it and wanted to ask questions, but he was stopped by Zhang Lao. For Zhang Lao, as long as he can solve the current situation of this potted plant dying, even if it takes three days, he is willing.

Finally, when everyone was really waiting for a little unbearable, Li Qingming spoke.

"Elder Zhang, I have a few questions I want to ask!" Li Qingming said in a deep voice, "If the question is inappropriate, please don't be surprised!"

"If it's about this potted plant, just ask!" Zhang Laowei said with a smile.

Wu Zhenghua frowned. Unconsciously, the tone changed. That's not quite right. Could it be that Zhang Lao saw that this Li Qingming had the ability to cure his precious potted plant?

You must know that about this bonsai, I don't know how many people have been invited to see it, but there is no way. Li Qingming, a person who is about the same age as himself, can he be optimistic?

"How long have you been here?" asked Li Qingming.

"It's been 18 months!" Zhang Lao did not hesitate. This bonsai is different from other bonsai. He naturally remembers clearly.

"What about before?" Li Qingming asked again.

"Before, I don't know what you mean, little friend?" asked Zhang Laochi.

"I mean this potted plant, how long has it been planted before Zhang Lao arrived, in this pot!" Li Qingming asked.

"Xiaoyou, do you mean it has something to do with this pot?" Zhang Lao has been planting potted plants for many years, so he naturally knows it. As soon as Li Qingming said this, he understood.

Li Qingming nodded.

"The characteristics of this bonsai are different from other plants, and they are not suitable for planting multiple times in the same soil. Usually, after 1-2 years, it is necessary to change the soil and continue planting. Otherwise, it will seriously affect its growth and development, and it is extremely susceptible to disease. Li Qingming said eloquently, "At this moment, this potted plant is because the soil nutrients are not enough, which causes it to be unhealthy enough, and then it is sick." ”

Zhang Lao suddenly realized.
