Women's Day is here, and the flower shop diagonally opposite is busy from morning to night, Feng Chunxi sees it from afar, and is a little envious. It is said that the shop also sells small potted plants such as fortune trees and succulents, and the business is very good. Similarly, many gardening stores will also temporarily buy some flowers to sell on Valentine's Day and the like.

When Chunxi's father was alive, someone suggested that he sell flowers at the same time, and at that time, the flower industry was just emerging, and the profits were still very large. But Chunxi's father refused, he said that people who really love flowers are like their own children, how can they cut off the child's head from the body. Once when he said this, Feng Chunxi asked him why he pruned the flower branches, didn't this cut off the child's arm? He didn't find the right words to refute Feng Chunxi, his face turned red, so he had to pick up his coat and slap Feng Chunxi hard.

Reopening the Chunxi Gardening Shop, Feng Chunxi also thought about whether to join the flower business, but later decided to forget it. The reopening of the shop was originally to fulfill the promise made to Chunxi's father before his death, so it was better to try to follow the way he was when he was. Another reason is that the flower shop and the green plant flower shop are completely two fields, and there are many things to learn.

Can't add flower elements, Chunxi gardening store must also continue to innovate and find new economic growth points. For example, in this season, easy-to-use, flowering and good-looking bulbous flowers have become fast-moving consumer goods in the horticultural world. Narcissus, hyacinths, tulips, and lilies are all great options. The main product of Chunxi Gardening is hyacinth, which is the best flower to raise, hydroponics is OK, and the flowering is the most beautiful. Narcissus needs to be raised in groups to look good, and the lily growth period is a bit long. Tulips, on the other hand, are a bit difficult to potted in the north, and even if ordinary people can raise the plant very well, its buds are also very delicate, and it is difficult to produce healthy flowers.

Hyacinth is the most colorful of all flowers, and its varieties are also directly distinguished by flower color, which is roughly divided into eight strains such as blue, pink, white, goose yellow, purple, yellow, crimson, and red. There are two types of cultivation methods: transparent plastic bottle hydroponics and white plastic pot with white stone cultivation, the latter is also hydroponic in nature. Well-planted hyacinths can bloom in two or three weeks, and the flowering period can reach ten to fifteen days. It is undoubtedly the best choice for people who want to plant a pot of flowers by themselves and are anxious to see the fruits of their labor.

In fact, the price of hyacinths, lilies, and narcissus bulbs is about the same, and Feng Chunxi buys the quality preference of ordinary varieties, and the wholesale price is about 3 yuan. But because the planting cost of hyacinths is the lowest, it can be sold in about ten days, and each tree plus water bottle Feng Chunxi only sells for 15 yuan, the flowering cycle of lilies is too long, and it is necessary to use large red tile pots and high-quality flower soil, and a pot of lilies full of flower buds should be sold for more than 35 yuan to be cost-effective. As for the narcissus, Feng Chunxi only raised three plates, mainly to enrich the variety, and if he bought a plate, it would be sold for 50 yuan.

Bai Xue saw the pots of beautiful hyacinths and liked them very much, and she proposed to put the flowering and budding hyacinths in a heart-shaped, brilliant color, which actually felt like a flower shop. This kind of experiment attracts many young girls who have never been to the gardening store to buy it, and some of them stay and take a photo even if they don't buy it. This youthful and beautiful atmosphere allowed Feng Chunxi to find the meaning of opening a gardening shop.

A long-haired girl who looked like a high school girl bought a pot of white hyacinths, and she asked Feng Chunxi what the words of this pot of flowers were? This Feng Chunxi really doesn't know, although opening a gardening shop must also be clear about the meaning of different plants, but hyacinths, this kind of bulb is an unpopular flower, Feng Chunxi didn't study it carefully, just simply used it to make some money. Feng Chunxi had no choice but to answer vaguely in the common flower language of hyacinth: "It represents the blessing of spring." Later, the girl passed by the flower shop and ran in to tell Feng Chunxi: "White hyacinth represents love that you dare not show." Then he ran away without looking back.

Bai Xue guessed that the love that high school girls didn't dare to show was definitely not Feng Chunxi. But she did inspire Bai Xue, who went to a stationery store and bought a stack of heart-shaped sticky notes, then handwritten down the words of different hyacinths and pasted them on a vase.

Blue Hyacinth – Victory, Vitality, Joy

Pink hyacinth – admiration, romance

Purple Hyacinth – Melancholy Love

Yellow Hyacinth - I am very happy to be with you

Red hyacinth - moved Feng Chunxi

White hyacinth - love that does not dare to confess.

This approach really worked, and the 15-dollar hyacinth suddenly became a messenger of love for girls. Female students who come to buy flowers no longer make choices because of the color of the flowers, but care more about the meaning of the flowers. It is said that women and children make the best money, and Feng Chunxi is now earning little girls' money.

One afternoon, Bai Xue didn't come to the store. Feng Chunxi was drinking mint water while reading a gardening book, when a woman who looked to be twenty-seven or eighteen years old walked in. Because it was backlight, Feng Chunxi couldn't see her face clearly for a while, and could only judge that the other party was a beauty by virtue of her figure and ponytail. The perfume smell on her body is also natural and smells good.

"Boss, buy some pots of hyacinths." The woman smiled and walked towards Feng Chunxi.

Feng Chunxi was a little stunned, because as the distance narrowed, not only did he see that the other party was really a fair-skinned beauty, but also saw that the other party was not officially the owner of the flower shop diagonally opposite. It is said that peers are enemies, but Feng Chunxi's potted flowers and her fresh-cut flowers can't be regarded as peers, what does this guy mean, Feng Chunxi didn't understand it for a while.

"Hey, boss, I want a few pots of hyacinths, is that okay?" Seeing that Feng Chunxi didn't react, the flower shop owner asked again. Feng Chunxi reacted at this time, and hurriedly sat up to greet him.

"You want to buy my flowers, aren't you from the flower shop? Hyacinths are far from the flowers in your store. Feng Chunxi asked with an inquiring eye.

"How is this the same, all the fresh-cut flowers in my store are grown, and the flowers you sell are growing little by little, this kind of vitality is the most infectious." The flower shop owner's words were very sincere, and the smile on her face Feng Chunxi looked more alive than hyacinths.

"Speaking of which, your hyacinths have robbed me of a lot of guests, so you have to count me cheaper!" The florist owner continued.

Feng Chunxi was a little puzzled, could it be that the other party was really looking for trouble from his peers, and it didn't look like it. So he asked, "How so?" Your flower shop's business is very good, unlike me, which doesn't have much profit and doesn't sell well. ”

"I used to have a lot of customers who specialize in buying flower arrangements, and every week they would change the different flowers and put them in vases and put them on the table or coffee table. Recently, a few customers didn't come to buy flowers, and later I found out that they all bought your hyacinths. When I saw a customer's Moments, I thought it was really good-looking, and I wanted it too, so I bought it. ”

"So that's the case, the retail price of hyacinths is 15 yuan, which can be counted as 12 yuan, and the profit of our kind of store is very low, so we can only give such a price." I don't know if she wants to watch it by herself or put it in the store to sell it on her behalf, in short, Feng Chunxi can only give such a price.

"It's really cheap, the flowers purchased in my store, some high-end roses, the cost price of one may be more than a dozen." The florist picked up a pot of blue hyacinths and sniffed them in front of his nose.

In the end, she chose three pots of hyacinths in blue, pink, and yellow. Before leaving, she also left a business card, and Feng Chunxi only then knew that her name was Ma Jing, and the name of the flower shop was the English "flower" of flowers.

In the days that followed, customers with flowers often came to Feng Chunxi's store to buy hyacinths and tabletop plants. Said that he saw it in the flower shop opposite and thought it was very good-looking, and was recommended by the boss to buy it here. Feng Chunxi was a little moved, thinking about going to the other side to thank Ma Jing, but he never mustered up the courage. People may just be doing it with a gesture, and Feng Chunxi takes advantage of this to get close, maybe it will be a trouble in the eyes of the other party.
