Chapter 128: Venus flytrap

After two rains in the summer of this year, the weather has been hot and humid, and the air humidity is high, causing flies,

Mosquitoes multiply rapidly, causing a lot of trouble for people.

According to the instructions of Boss Xiao Li, under the leadership of the store manager Aunt Qi, the staff of the steamed bun shop launched a vigorous patriotic sanitation mosquito and fly eradication action, all sanitary dead corners were cleaned up, and garbage and sewage were also dumped in time, so that flies and mosquitoes could not find a breeding ground for egg-laying and breeding.

Other tools such as fly traps, sticky fly paper and other tools are in turn, and manual swatting is never stopped. In this way, a multi-pronged approach has achieved considerable results. Even customers complimented the bun shop on its hygienic conditions and that there were far fewer flies than in other places.

But even so, it didn't satisfy Li Youran, because his goal was not to see a single Chapter 128 Venus flytrap fly in the store, and the current situation was only a reduction in the number, and it was still far from eradication.

Especially the private restaurant, itself is positioned as a high-end, and it is very bad to have these nasty little things flying around.

Aunt Qi had a headache, she said to Li Youran, who was patrolling the store, that the employees have done their best, but under the current situation, many flies fly in from the outside, and people who open a store to do business, and people who are always in and out of the store will inevitably bring flies and mosquitoes in.

In addition, the toxicity of pesticides is also very high, and the smell makes people feel dizzy when they smell it, and if it is used in a large area of the store, it will affect the customer's meal. No way, after years of using these things, the resistance of the insects has also been greatly enhanced, and the toxicity of the insecticide is not useful at all.

There is also manual slapping, but this is even more limited, and the waiter can't always run to the side of the customer who is eating during business hours to hit the fly on the head of the person.

Li Youran understands that flies are fragrant and smelly, as long as the smell is strong, it will attract it, and the bun shop can be described as fragrant during business hours, and the temptation of these insects is not ordinarily large.

It seems that it is indeed difficult for some strong people to completely eradicate it, and they can manage the bun shop, but Chapter 128 The Venus Trap can't control others, and there are always some unconsciously like to dump garbage and sewage, providing a happy growth environment for these nasty little things. This is also a helpless thing.

So, he said to Aunt Qi, just do your best.

After explaining the matter, Li Youran continued to wander around the store, only to see that the windows were bright and clean everywhere, and there was no garbage on the ground, Aunt Qi had indeed worked hard.

He returned to the second floor and walked towards the office, but when he passed by the financial room, he was stopped by Gu Weiwei and took a slip for him to sign.

After signing, Li Youran glanced casually in the financial room, but found that there was a strange-looking plant on the windowsill, and the short stem had a large clip that looked like a "shell" on the top of each green leaf, and the outer edge was arranged with thorn-like hairs, and there were about a dozen such clips.

What is this strange huā? I've never seen it before, it's pretty good. Li leisurely approached the windowsill and looked at it carefully.

"How about it, Ranzi, don't you know?" Gu Weiwei said a little proudly.

"Don't sell it, tell me honestly." Li Youran took out the boss's panache and ordered.

"I'll put the boss's score." Gu Weiwei muttered dissatisfiedly.

She stepped forward and swept away to Boss Li, it turned out that this potted plant is called Venus flytrap is an ornamental insectivorous plant, that pair of clip-like things are actually symmetrical leaves on the left and right, the leaves and spiny hairs together, forming a movable predator, the inside of the leaf is pink with glands, can secrete honey to attract small insects, when the small insects break in, the predator clips will be clamped at a very fast speed, and the prickly hairs will seal the gaps, and the small insects will soon be digested and absorbed.

Oh, there is also this peculiar plant, interesting. Li Youran suddenly became interested.

And the dozen or so clips about four centimeters long look majestic, cool, and very attractive.

Gu Weiwei went on to say that this was planted by her mother at home, and there were two pots in total. Because now there are flies and mosquitoes in the office, she got a pot to watch and kill insects.

As she was talking, Gu Weiwei put her index finger to her lips and made a silent movement.

Li Youran also saw that a small fly was attracted by the smell, and drew an arc in the air and flew towards the flytrap.

I saw that it landed on the back of the insect trap first, and then flapped its wings and drilled into the open clip along the prickly hairs, in the process, the insect trap was open, motionless, until the little fly completely entered, and began to enjoy the food, with a snap, the clip was quickly closed, and the soft prickly hairs were rolled up, and a tragedy that died due to greed came to an end, and the length of the film was only ten seconds.

Looking at the tightly closed insect trap, Li Youran's eyes lit up, good things, no pollution,

Green and environmentally friendly, natural insect buster, beautiful appearance, but also beautify the environment, it is really a combination of all the advantages.

"Vivi, where did you buy this Venus flytrap? Can you buy more and put some in the store? Li Youran thought directly of the matter.

"This kind of thing is not easy to buy in the market, it was given by my mother's friend, and it is not very easy to raise, it needs a humid environment, it needs to be watered and cared for often, and it also needs to maintain acidic soil." Gu Weiwei said.

Not easy to raise? There is no problem with this at all, with the space stream water conservancy in hand, any plant can be done. Li Jiran thought.

"Can you buy seeds? Or some other method of reproduction. Li Youran continued to ask. If you want to use this plant to kill mosquitoes and flies, it is not a few pots that can solve it.

"I heard my mom say that the seeds of the Venus flytrap are very small, and they have a short shelf life, so they are easy to fail. Generally, it is propagated by leaf cuttings. Gu Weiwei thought for a while and said.

Oh, so it turns out that cuttings can be made. That's easy to say, you don't need to ask the person in front of you about the specific method, it is estimated that it is also half a jar of water. I went back to the Internet to check it out.

Thinking of this, Li Youran stretched out his hand to pick up the firefly trap huā pot and said to Gu Weiwei: "Now I officially inform you that this pot of flytrap has been requisitioned by the store. So saying, he went out the door.

"Oh, I'm protesting." Gu Weiwei shouted.

"Protest is ineffective, by the way, reward you with a fly swatter, behind my office door, take it and use it, and you can exercise." Li said leisurely without looking back, and walked all the way into his bedroom.

Back in the house, he put the flytrap leather on the windowsill, then turned on the computer and started surfing the Internet to check the information about the shutdown.

According to the information, the most common propagation method for Venus flytrap is leaf cutting, that is, a piece of petiole is inserted into the soil to grow a new plant. Of course, the process is more troublesome, in order to reduce the loss of the petioles, it is necessary to use clean cultivation media, such as water moss, so that the petioles do not rot, and what humidity is maintained. It's a foggy sight to behold.

But in fact, there is no need to pay attention to these too much, and the space stream will make up for the shortcomings caused by novices.

And according to precedents, plants that grow in the space environment are better than those in the real world, so what should the Venus flytrap that is cultivated in space look like? The results of the future are really exciting.

Seize the time and start the great cause of biological control. Li Youran found a small shovel, dug out the whole Venus flytrap, put it in a plastic bag, took it to the water room to wash it, and sprayed all the plants with disinfectant water.

Then go back to the room and lock the door. Enter the space with the Venus flytrap.

He took out the huā shovel from the toolbox placed at the edge of the space, went to the cabbage field, and according to the diagram on the Internet, recorded the insect trap of the Venus flytrap and the white petal-like petiole from the base, divided it into a dozen individual seedlings, found a gap at the edge of the vegetable field, and planted them in turn. Then let Aung Aung go to the stream to drink water, and come and irrigate carefully.

Now all we have to do is wait for the results, and according to the spatial growth rate is more than ten times that of the outside world, it is estimated that it will be clear in a few days.

He took out his mobile phone to see, it was still early, and he could collect some food, so he took out his tools and chopped cabbage, anal beans, eyebrow peas, and leeks in the field, and worked hard for a while. When he came to the turnip field, he saw Angang playing on the side, and his heart moved, maybe Angang could do this job.

"Aung Aung, come here." Li leisurely shouted.

Hearing this, Ang Ang immediately ran to Li Youran's side happily, raised his head, and looked at each other with a wink of copper bells, as if asking what do you want me to do?

"Aang, look." Li Youran said as he bent down and reached out to grab the root of the radish leaf, and with a little force, a big white radish was immediately pulled out, and the mud pieces brought out fell to the ground one after another.

"Aung Aang, you can try." After Li Youran finished the demonstration, he pointed to another radish and asked Ang Ang to do the same.

There was a hint of confusion in Ang's eyes, but he still walked to the radish according to his words, imitated the other party's appearance just now, lowered his head and opened his mouth, and bit the radish leaf.

Li Jiran stepped forward to correct it, and asked Angang to move the position of his lower mouth down again, all the way to the root of the radish leaf.

"Alright, pull it out." He commanded.

Ang Ang shook his head and pulled back, only to hear a pounce, and the radish was pulled out, but because of the excessive force, he did not stand firmly, and a fart squatted out.

Angang got up from the ground, screamed twice, and shook the dirt off his body.

"Hehehe, you guy is using so much force." Li Youran couldn't help laughing when he saw Angang's embarrassment, and Ang'ang looked at him with an innocent expression.

After laughing, Li Youran taught Angang to pull radishes again, fortunately, this guy is really smart, and after trying a few more times, he actually did it decently.

Well, there will be another good labor force in the future, and it seems that Angang's ability has yet to be developed, not just an automatic irrigation machine. Li Youran secretly pondered.

After Shun Shun plucked a few in a row, he was so excited that he took it as a fun game, ran to the other side, and made several more in one go.

"Stop, stop." Li Youran hurriedly stopped. If it continues to play like this, with its stamina, there will be only a few left in the ground.

After Li Youran stopped Ang'ang's action, he told it several times that the radish usually can't be pulled, and he must listen to the command when he is present.

Aung Ang understood, and nodded continuously. !!
