Chapter 713: Planting Saffron
"Xiao Xiao, how are you doing?" Lin Zukang was happy every time he called, and he could see that he had a good impression of Xiao Ping, otherwise he would never be like this. Xiao Ping never doubted this, after all, just look at Lin Zukang's attitude towards others to understand everything.
However, Xiao Ping also had a good impression of Lin Zukang, so he quickly replied with a smile: "Hello Mr. Lin, I've been doing very well lately, I can eat and sleep, and my body is great!" ”
Lin Zukang on the other end of the phone laughed when he heard it: "Yes, yes, good health is really good." Speaking of which, the health oral liquid you sent me is really good, I only drank a box and felt much better, and I can even walk more time every day. Are you interested in taking the liquid to the world? I can share the company's sales funnel with you, for free! ”
Lim has a business in many industries, and retail is also one of the areas he is involved in. After years of development, Lin Zukang has established his own retail channels in most parts of the world, especially in the Chinese residential areas.
To be honest, being able to get Lin Zukang's promise really made Xiao Ping very moved, but he could only helplessly refuse: "Mr. Lin, I understand your kindness." However, at the moment, I am not able to expand the sales of oral liquid abroad, because ...... At present, the supply of raw materials is somewhat insufficient, so the output of oral liquid is still very low, and it can only be temporarily supplied to China. ”
Lin Zukang has worked hard in the mall for many years, so he naturally heard Xiao Ping telling the truth, and couldn't help but regret: "It's really a pity, the effect of oral liquid is really good, and the sales will definitely be very good after it is promoted." But it doesn't matter. Wait until the yield is high in the future, remember. This promise of mine will always be valid. ”
Knowing that Lin Zukang was intentionally helping himself, Xiao Ping said sincerely: "Then I will thank you first." Mr. Lim. ”
"You're welcome." Lin Zukang continued: "Actually, there is another main thing to call you, the saffron bulbs you want me to buy are ready, and they will be loaded on the plane and airlifted to you the day after tomorrow, so you should be ready to receive the goods as soon as possible!" ”
Compared with the future sales channels, this news made Xiao Ping even more happy, and he couldn't help but be pleasantly surprised: "This is really good, thank you so much, Mr. Lin." ”
Lin Zukang said with a smile: "It's a trivial matter, and it's not enough to worry about it. But the locals over there take this little thing very seriously. A lot of people don't want to sell, so I can't buy much, maybe 60,000. ”
Xiao Ping's original intention of buying this batch of crocus bulbs was to use them for breeding, and when he heard this number, he nodded with satisfaction: "Enough is enough, as long as it is planted for two years, the number can be doubled several times, and then it will be able to produce saffron stamens in batches." ”
Since Xiao Ping expressed his satisfaction, Lin Zukang didn't need to say anything more. Just as he was about to hang up the phone, Xiao Ping smiled and said, "That's right, Mr. Lin." The timber you put my eye on last time is already eyebrow-raising, and it is estimated that it will be delivered to my farm this month, and there are quite a few of them, you see......"
Lin Zukang has always been very keen on all kinds of precious wood. Before Xiao Ping finished speaking, he said excitedly: "Great, the Hazak Sultan was complaining to me a few days ago that it was too difficult to get some good wood. If this continues, his new palace will be stopped, and your news is really timely. ”
Speaking of which, Lin Zukang thought about it for a while. Then tell Xiao Ping: "It's still too slow to go by sea." So, when the wood arrives, you let me know. I'm still chartering a cargo plane to go over and air freight, what do you think? ”
"No problem, Mr. Lin." Of course, Xiao Ping would not have any opinions, so he simply agreed, and the two hung up the phone after chatting for a few more words.
Two days later, the plane transporting the crocus bulbs landed at the international airport in the provincial capital. Xiao Ping asked Zhou Jun to find a big truck to load the batch of saffron bulbs.
More than 60,000 bulbs are a lot, which is enough to occupy the volume of two air cargo containers, and the freight alone is not a small amount. Xiao Ping remembered when he was loading the car that he hadn't asked Lin Zukang how much it cost to buy this batch of bulbs, and he couldn't help but secretly curse himself for being confused. Fortunately, it won't be long before the timber will be sold to Lin Zukang, and then the money will only need to be deducted.
The Tuoxian Pot Company is getting better and better, Zhou Jun's transportation company is becoming more and more prosperous, and his belly is getting bigger day by day, and now it is almost like being five months pregnant. However, every time Xiao Ping has an important transportation task, Zhou Jun will still go out in person, and this time is naturally no exception.
Zhou Jun watched the crocus bulbs in the wooden barrel being carefully loaded onto the truck with a big belly, and couldn't help but ask Xiao Ping suspiciously: "I said why are you buying so many daffodils?" Aren't daffodils the best in Zhangzhou, why do you still have to import them from foreign countries, you can't burn them like this if you have money! ”
"Damn, you think this is a narcissus?" Xiao Ping couldn't help but shake his head at Zhou Jun and said, "It's terrible to have no knowledge. ”
Zhou Jun and Xiao Ping were used to joking, and they didn't get angry because of it, but just asked curiously: "Isn't this Narcissus?" What is that? Tulips? ”
"Saffron!" Xiao Ping said the correct name of the goods, but found that Zhou Jun was still at a loss, so he could only explain to him helplessly: "The stamen of this thing can be used as a seasoning, and the price is very expensive!" ”
As soon as Xiao Ping said this, Zhou Jun understood, and couldn't help muttering: "You just say that this is a new project for the company to make money, why do you have to say it so complicated!" ”
There was nothing to say about Zhou Jun's attitude, Xiao Ping shook his head helplessly, and supervised the workers to load the goods.
All the crocus bulbs were loaded onto trucks and transported to the farm. Xiao Ping took advantage of the fact that the farm workers were returning home in the evening, and put all these bulbs into the demon refining pot.
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Ping himself also brought a small shovel, and couldn't wait to go into the demon refining pot to plant saffron.
More than 60,000 crocus trees needed a large area, Xiao Ping chose for a long time, and finally decided to plant crocus on the grass near the sea. He asked the Black Devil to help drag two large vasks of crocus bulbs to the pre-selected planting site, and then set about planting the little bulbs.
Xiao Ping first used a shovel to dig a small pit more than ten centimeters deep in the grass, and then put a bulb in it, covered it with soil and pressed it slightly, and a saffron was planted.
Although it doesn't take much time to plant a single crocus, there are at least a thousand crocus in each large barrel, and it takes some time to plant an entire bucket of bulbs.
Xiao Ping kept repeating the action of planting crocus bulbs, feeling that he was about to become a robot, and after spending more than an hour, he finally planted all the bulbs in a wooden barrel into the ground. In the green meadow, there were two more rows of neatly planted bulbs, which looked like two neat rows of soldiers.
"Yes, my farming skills haven't fallen yet!" Xiao Ping looked at the saffron planted and was very satisfied with the fruits of his labor.
However, Xiao Ping knew that it was not time to rest now. Each barrel contains about 1,000 crocus bulbs, making a total of 60,000 crocuses enough to fill 60 vats. At the moment, he has only finished planting one barrel, and there are still fifty-nine barrels to be planted! After completing this simple arithmetic problem, Xiao Ping silently returned to the starting point and began to plant the second bucket of saffron.
Xiao Ping had been busy since he entered the demon refining pot that night, and when he left, the sky was already cloudy, which meant that he had not rested all night. Although time passed faster in the demon refining pot than outside, Xiao Ping also worked hard for more than five hours.
During these five hours, Xiao Ping did not rest at all, and kept planting those crocus bulbs that seemed to never be finished. Thanks to his physique far superior to ordinary people, otherwise he would have already fallen down.
Of course, all this hard work pays off. After a busy night, four large vat crocus of crocus bulbs have been properly planted. At this rate, it won't take half a month for Xiao Ping to plant all 60,000 bulbs on his own.
In fact, Xiao Ping was not very tired, but time did not allow him to continue working. Xiao Ping asked the black devil to help, fetched some spring water, watered all the freshly planted crocus bulbs, and then hurriedly left the demon refining pot.
The workers at the farm came to work after dawn as usual, not knowing what their boss had done last night, and many did not even know that a large number of crocus bulbs had been brought in from Langdao.
Xiao Ping also wandered around the farm and chatted with the workers as usual, but in the evening, after everyone got off work, he continued to enter the demon refining pot to plant saffron.
For the next ten days, Xiao Ping was busy every night. As soon as the workers got off work, he entered the demon refining pot to plant crocus. As more and more bulbs were planted, Xiao Ping's movements became more and more proficient. At first, he could only plant four buckets of bulbs in a night, but later he was able to plant five and a half buckets, not only to water the bulbs, but also to pick a coconut and drink coconut water while taking a nap.
After more than ten busy days, all 60,000 crocus bulbs were planted. These 60,000 crocus trees occupy an area of more than three acres, and if it weren't for the fact that after several evolutions, the area inside the demon refining pot was already very large, and there really wouldn't be enough bulbs to be planted.
The aura in the demon refining pot is sufficient, and the environment is naturally good. Xiao Ping only found out after planting the last bulb that the saffron planted in the first two days had sprouted and pulled leaves, and the long and narrow leaves were already four or five inches long. The bulbs planted a few days later have also sprouted, and they seem to be very adapted to the environment inside the demon refining pot.
Xiao Ping is of course very satisfied with this. Just wait for these crocuses to grow smoothly and split and reproduce more small bulbs, and then the fairy pot company will have more "crocus" products.
Xiao Ping is not a person who forgets his roots, and he has not forgotten that he was able to get this batch of saffron bulbs thanks to Lin Zukang's help. Now that the planting of crocus has been completed, it is time to help Mr. Lin solve the problem of timber. (To be continued......)
