"Boss, this batch of saplings looks a little different from the previous ones?"

Since Azak last put forward a good water-saving idea, Lin Quan promoted him to squad leader, responsible for managing a team of workers, and with him was promoted another worker, one person managed 24 people, forming two working groups, responsible for the east and west sides of the matter.

"Well, it's different, have you seen these things before?"

Lin Quan was holding a sapling with a height of only more than 20 centimeters in his hand, which could no longer be called a sapling, and it seemed to be a low plant.

Azak looked at it for a long time, and there were two kinds of saplings in this batch, but he had never seen them.

"I don't know, I haven't seen it!"

Azak shook his head, he was a native of Niger, these two plants are not endemic to the Sahara Desert region, he has not seen them in Niger, so they should be exotic species.

"Hehe, these are two spices!" Lin Quan said with a smile, the two plants in his hand were introduced from the Iranian plateau, and it took time, effort and money to travel a long distance to come, because it was too expensive, so the number was not much, but it didn't matter, he bought a batch of seeds, and after these seedlings proved that they could survive in the desert area, he would promote this plant on a large scale.

Different from the sea buckthorn planted before, although the sea buckthorn can produce sand dates, but the yield is not very high, because of the limitation of water sources, so the sand dates here look shriveled, can not sell fresh dates, can only continue to dry, and then sell dried dates, so that the profits are limited, of course, if you can run a food processing factory, here to process these dates on the spot, then the economic benefits will be doubled, but the conditions here are harsh, the risk of setting up a factory here is very large, just the logistics pressure and construction costs are scared to death, after cost accounting, the average person will not come。

This reminded Lin Quan of the person he met at TSNY before, his name seemed to be Qin Chuan, the person in charge of Daqin Co., Ltd.

The reason why Lin Quan remembered this person was because Qin Chuan had just arrived, but he rushed in a lot and came to the door to promote himself, but Daqin Co., Ltd. didn't give him much money, and he had a difficult start, so Lin Quan didn't choose to cooperate with him, but this company was a food processing company, if they had gained a foothold in Africa now, maybe they could consider cooperating with him in the future.

"Spices?"

Azak is a devout Muslim, in the Muslim world, spices are very important, and in ancient times, there are two main places of origin of spices, one is ancient Egypt, the other is the mysterious East, Oriental spices mainly come from China and ancient India, and whether it is Egypt, China or India, the spices of these countries are mainly shipped to the West to sell.

And they were transported through the ancient Silk Road, these Silk Roads were later controlled by them after the rise of Islamic countries, in the Tang Dynasty, because of the eastward expansion of the power of the Great Food, so there was a battle with the Tang Dynasty Talas, which mainly fought for the control of the dependent countries on the Silk Road, what Tocharo, Shiguo, Lite and other small countries on the Silk Road.

Later, the papal forces in the West also fought for the trade routes between the east and the west controlled by Islam, and launched many crusades backwards, which lasted for more than 200 years, and finally until the Mongols reached their doorstep, the pressure on both sides was very great, and then they broke up and stopped fighting.

Islam is no stranger to spices, and they themselves love spices.

"Well, it's mainly peppercorns and cumin, these two things you should know, they are on the Iranian side. ”

"That's right, but we don't see that the environment in Niger is still a little different from that in Iran. ”

Azak stared at these two spices with some curiosity for a long time, these two plants he had never seen before, among them, the cumin plant was slightly smaller, which looked like a shrub, and the pepper was an arbor, which was larger, but it had a very special taste, and it was not pleasant to be so close to the nose.

"This thing is a treasure, you see, we plant them all the way along the route from the farm to Highway 11, so that when they bloom and bear fruit in the future, people who come down from Highway 11 will be curiously attracted to the fragrance when they ask about the fragrance in the desert, and when the time comes, we will weigh a little more osmanthus and other things, it will be better, to ensure that they will be refreshed when they smell the fragrance, and they will be instantly attracted to us!"

Lin Quan was a little immersed in his own planning, just imagine, a tired traveler, stop at the gas station to refuel, and then find that the roadside is full of golden osmanthus flowers, the air is filled with refreshing aroma, the osmanthus is covered with green and lush, they will not only get olfactory stimulation, but also visual stimulation, they will definitely can't help but be curious to get out of the car to check, and then they will be attracted over.

"Hehe, boss, you are really a genius, but this place can also be opened to young couples, let them feel the charm of nature, let's provide some logistics services, hehe......"

Azak laughed sheepishly, looking as obscene as he looked, Lin Quan glared at him angrily and scolded.

"Quick, bring someone over and bring these saplings back, soak them in the water for half an hour, let them absorb the water, don't drown them, and then call the workers of your squad, we will come later to learn how to grow these two spices!"

Lin Quan didn't want him to continue, although his idea may not be unreliable, maybe it can really become a way to make money in the future, after all, everyone likes nervous and exciting new tricks, but at present, his evil fire is going to be stirred up by this guy, so Lin Quan hurriedly sent Azak away, this wilderness, solving personal problems is a problem, do you want to go to Agadez once?

Lin Quan began to regret a little, he shouldn't have put Denise back before......
