Chapter 44: The Master of Vegetable Cultivation

Chapter 44 Vegetable Master

Luo Xiaowei listened to Zhu Xiangjun's words and didn't think he was talking nonsense. So what is the difference between tomatoes and tomatoes?

Zhu Xiangjun looked at Luo Xiaowei and smiled: "I mean, the tomatoes I grow can be as big as eggplants." So I should call it a tomato. ”

"Ahh I see. Isn't it just a big tomato, so mysterious, then tomatoes and tomatoes are originally the same 'person'! Luo Xiaowei understood that Zhu Xiangjun was just joking with him.

"Hey! What I mean is that if you plant the tomatoes well, you will definitely get the praise of the company commander or the logistics chief. Zhu Xiangjun seems to be selling Guanzi again.

"Humph! Deputy squad leader! I don't understand that. If the tomatoes are planted, they can be praised by the director, but if other vegetables are planted, the director will criticize them. Luo Xiaowei couldn't understand what Zhu Xiangjun meant.

"Hey! Luo Xiaowei is like that. You think that although they are all vegetables, but this tomato is a little different from other dishes, do you know that this tomato can be regarded as a fruit among vegetables? It's delicious when eaten raw. And it's also very beautiful. You said that you planted this beautiful and delicious dish, is that more eye-catching than other dishes? Zhu Xiangjun began to reason again.

"Hmmm! You have a point. At that time, our vegetable plot is a red and bright patch, which is indeed quite attractive. Luo Xiaowei used his imagination for a moment, as if he had seen the tomatoes full of fruits.

"That's right! I'm going to talk to the squad leader. Be sure to plant this tomato well. After Zhu Xiangjun finished speaking, he went to another place to find Li Chengming.

"Squad leader! We planted tomatoes in the afternoon, but there were no seedlings yet! How to plant it! Zhu Xiangjun asked Li Chengming.

"You don't have to worry about this, I'll just wait to find the company commander, but can you guarantee that you can grow tomatoes well!" Li Chengming still doesn't seem to believe Zhu Xiangjun.

"Don't worry! Squad leader: I will graft the technique. I will definitely be able to grow better tomatoes in our class than any other. Zhu Xiangjun is not bragging, because when he was at home, he once experimented in his family's vegetable garden.

Zhu Xiangjun likes to eat tomatoes and watermelon. He once had a curious idea to graft tomatoes and watermelons together.

Zhu Xiangjun's father also likes to grow vegetables. At this time, the two of them studied the grafting technique together. According to Zhu Xiangjun's thoughts. They experimented with tomatoes and watermelons.

After many failures, the two of them finally succeeded.

Now that Zhu Xiangjun thinks of his grafting technique, he wants to continue the experiment in the vegetable field in his class.

Li Chengming saw that Zhu Xiangjun was quite confident, so he told the company commander. The company commander let him have lunch and then took Zhu Xiangjun to the vegetable market near the garrison to buy some tomato seedlings.

After hearing the lunch, Li Chengming asked Gao Qiang to take the whole class of soldiers to the vegetable field to turn over the ground. He took Zhu Xiangjun out of the camp and went to a vegetable market in the town. Then let Zhu Xiangjun pick some tomato seedlings. And it came back again.

Zhu Xiangjun and Li Chengming came to the vegetable field with vegetable seedlings. At this time, Gao Qiang Luo Xiaowei and the others had already put aside the vegetable fields where they were going to grow tomatoes.

Li Chengming saw that the soldiers in the squad had turned over the vegetable patch so quickly, so he said happily: "Hmm! Yes, the work efficiency is quite high. Zhu Xiangjun can grow vegetables now. ”

Zhu Xiangjun did not answer. He crouched down. Stretched out his hand and inserted it into the turned dirt, shook his head, and said, "Squad leader!" No, no! The vegetable field was not deep enough, and it continued to be turned aside. Dig a little deeper. ”

"Zhu Xiangjun! Do these tomatoes have to be turned so deep! We've always dug so deep. Li Chengming didn't understand. Do you have to turn so deep to grow a tomato?

"Squad leader! You don't know about this. This tomato is also one of the tallest growing plants among vegetables. The taller the plant has deeper roots. So dig deeper. That way you can be tall and strong. "Zhu Xiangjun: This is an empirical matter. After all, he had grown tomatoes.

"Okay, just do as you say, go through it again!" Li Chengming commanded Gao Qiang now, and they turned the ground over again.

"That's it! Next, I'll fix it, you don't have to worry about it. Zhu Xiangjun himself took a shovel and broke the big lump of soil on the turned vegetable field. Then it was leveled again. ,

After everything is done. Zhu Xiangjun asked everyone to plant the tomato seedlings on the vegetable field according to a certain shoulder distance. Then let everyone carry water together and water the newly planted seedlings.

"Zhu Xiangjun is okay now!" Li Chengming saw that Zhu Xiangjun was growing vegetables so seriously, and felt that there was no need for it at all. What's the use of the vegetable seeds being so good!

"Nope! There is one more important thing below the squad leader. The temperature of these tomato seedlings is around 20 degrees. It's May, and the temperature is okay during the day, but not at night. So we're going to build another plastic shed for this bunch. Zhu Xiangjun understands the skills of these tomatoes.

"Ahh Do you want to be so troublesome! Li Chengming seemed to be a little impatient. I feel that growing a vegetable is also the task of the company. Just do it. Why do you have to plant so well?

"Squad leader! If we want to do it, we must do it well. Otherwise, you might as well not do it! Our vegetables have been planted, and it will not be you who will be praised by the company commander by then! Zhu Xiangjun saw that the squad leader didn't seem to support him seriously planting vegetables. So I hurried to bring him a high hat.

"That's it! Come on! Just listen to you, Luo Xiaowei and Chen Darong, the two of you go to the breeder and get some plastic film and bamboo sticks. Li Chengming said to the two recruits standing beside him.

"Okay! Let's go. Luo Xiaowei listened to it and went to the breeder with Chen Darong.

Soon they returned. Got back plastic film and small bamboo poles.

"Good! Let's build the shed together! It's getting late. The temperature has dropped. This is not good for the seedlings! Zhu Xiangjun said as he and the squad leader covered the vegetable field where the tomato seedlings had just been planted with a plastic shed.

After everything is done. The squad leader returned to the company with the whole squad.

After listening to dinner, the squad leader chatted with Zhu Xiangjun without any trouble.

"Zhu Xiangjun! Do you say that you need to plant tomatoes like this? No matter how you grow it, aren't it still tomatoes? This Li Chengming doesn't seem to understand why Zhu Xiangjun is so serious about growing vegetables.

"Squad leader! Isn't it also a kind of competition for us to grow vegetables! If the vegetables in our class are good, isn't that also the work of our class good! Is there anything wrong with that? Zhu Xiangjun really doesn't understand why Li Chengming seems to have any opinion on him growing vegetables so seriously.
