The light aroma of tea wafts with the wind, refreshing people's hearts, walking in the tea plantations that spiral up like a ladder, the eyes are lush green, the air is exceptionally fresh, and every breath is mixed with refreshment and freshness, which makes people feel extremely comfortable.
Fu Yunze followed behind Ye Han and walked sideways through the path opened up separately.
The tea trees here grow very fast, and the rows and paths that were set aside at the beginning are a little narrow, and you need to reach out from time to time to pluck the newly grown branches of the tea trees.
He watched closely at the tea tree more than one meter tall in front of him growing apical buds, hidden among the branches and leaves, and the fresh and fragrant fragrance of tea lingered in his nose, and he couldn't help but take a deep breath, feeling that he had come to another paradise.
A very novel experience.
Ye Han came to the vicinity of the seedbed and used his golden finger to check the growth status of tea seedlings.
Tea Tree Seedling No. 5: "I've grown up." You see, there are tender buds growing on the top of my head, but I can't pick them yet, so I'll grow them again. β
Ye Han took a closer look, his slender white fingertips flicked the plump leaves, and sure enough, he saw a small apical bud in the middle of the two leaves.
It's too small, about the same size as a grain of rice, and you can't see it at all if you don't look closely, it has just sprouted, and it has not yet unfolded and turned green, exuding a slightly white color, tender and tender.
It was lovely.
Thinking of the little milk sound of the tea tree seedlings whimpering when they first came, I was worried about whether I would die; It has grown to a height of 50 centimeters, and seven or eight branches stretch out to form a small bush-like clump with bright green branches.
Looking at its vibrant appearance, Ye Han couldn't help but smile.
She used a golden finger on another tea plant.
Tea Tree Seedling No. 6: "I don't want to stay in the seedbed anymore, it's a shame." I'm a big tea tree, get me away! β
It's a pity that the soft and glutinous little milk voice betrayed it, although it sounded fierce, it was still only half a year old.
It's still a tea tree sapling, and it doesn't match the big tea tree at all.
Ye Han touched its leaves and lowered his voice: "Don't worry, I'll move you away immediately." β
Tea Tree Sapling No. 6 hummed and said, "... That, that's pretty much the same. β
After checking their status one after another, Ye Han's gaze fell on the tea tree seedling No. 3.
It is seven or eight centimeters taller than other seedlings, and more than ten branches grow from the base, which is the most robust of them all, and is rated as S grade.
However, these branches only grow within a few months, the leaves are light green, and the branches are very slender, and the color and thickness are completely different from those of the 8-year-old tea tree.
Tea Tree Seedling No. 3: "Are you going to pick tea?" For the sake of taking good care of us, I will allow you to pluck my sprouts, but only a few of them, so as not to interfere with future development. β
A serious voice, with the calmness of adulthood, but combined with its age, it really makes people laugh.
Ye Han's apricot eyes couldn't help but bend, and said with a smile: "I won't pick it this year, at least wait until next year." β
When the tea tree seedling No. 3 heard it, he said in a calm milk voice: "Well, thank you." β
Burst.
Ye Han was adored by it, and this contrast was really irresistible.
It is worthy of being an S-level tea tree seedling, how did it cultivate such a cute and calm character?
leaf
Han half-squatted down with a smile on his face and counted its buds, and sure enough, there were quite a few of them, and they were extremely well developed.
Fu Yunze came to her side, looked at the smile in the girl's eyes, and then looked at these tall tea tree seedlings, his thin lips were slightly raised, and his slender fingers gently pulled the cuffs: "Do you want to help?" ()β
"No, just wait for the tea farmers to come over and transplant them together. ()?γ See the latest chapter. Complete Chapter'()"
Ye Han looked at the other party's handsome facial features and calm posture, and for a moment his thoughts diverged, wondering if the other party would be like this when he was a child.
Obviously he has just entered kindergarten, but he is wearing a straight suit, refusing the help of others, and taking care of himself meticulously.
Thinking about it like this, it seems that even the only sense of distance left on the other party has disappeared.
β¦β¦
Today's temperature is just right, and the tea farmers have carefully transplanted 10 tall tea tree seedlings to the back slope under Ye Han's instructions.
Compared with the surrounding 10-year-old tea trees, they are significantly shorter, but they are green and vibrant.
The tea farmers picked up the buds grown from the tea trees one by one, and discussed the nodes and methods of tea picking with Ye Han.
Tea farmer: "Our tea trees are growing very fast, and with the temperature warming this year, it is expected that the first tea will be harvested in another 10-12 days." You see, is it to pick directly, or wait until before Qingming to pick uniformly? β
Open the garden to pick, pick the most tender and fat top bud or ungrown bud and leaf (bud is larger than the leaf), the earlier the price of picking, usually 5-60,000 buds to fry a pound of tea, belongs to the special grade in the boutique, an acre can not produce two or three catties.
The tea garden of Huajianji is only 30 acres, which is not large compared with the tea garden of thousands of acres, and the amount of tea picked is relatively small.
In order to maintain the taste of the tea, several processes such as spreading, finishing, arranging, and drying should be carried out immediately after picking to prevent the loss of freshness; At the same time, in the production process, the hired tea workers and finishing masters must be in place at the level to achieve perfection in every step.
In this way, you can get the highest quality special first-class tea.
But in this way, the cost is definitely not low.
In particular, the average distribution is spread to the tea with a total output of only a few dozen catties, and the unit price is higher.
Dongling white tea is not one of the top ten famous teas, and the price grade is biased towards a level that is acceptable to the public.
Drinking 500 yuan/jin of tea locally can be drunk before the rain, or even before the Ming Dynasty, which is enough for ordinary families; As for high-end tea, only a small number of old tea customers with picky tastes will buy it, and those who pay more attention to quality will directly buy famous teas such as West Lake Longjing and Dongting Biluochun.
Therefore, the high-end tea positioning of Dongling white tea is a bit embarrassing, high is not low, the overall sales are average, only such as Fengling Group, a large output, W City local old tea brands will be uniformly packaged and sold, and the others are placed in the tea room or sold by themselves to find familiar tea customers.
Tea farmers feel that it is better to let the buds in the first harvest period grow longer, and wait until one of them grows into young leaves, and pick and fry them together just before the Qingming Festival, which can save a lot of manpower and costs.
Of course, it depends on the meaning of the principal.
Ye Han is very confident in his tea garden, the quality of the tea trees is excellent, and it is a waste not to pick, so he said with a smile: "Arrange the first picking." β
Tea picking is still mainly manual, skilled workers can pick 3-5 catties of top buds a day, or 30-40 catties of buds and leaves, the former needs to be very fine.
() Do diligent, clean, no leakage, buds and leaves into flowers, uniform size. β ()
And when picking, it is necessary to pick by hand, pick lightly, and the buds and leaves should be held in bamboo baskets and bamboo baskets to prevent gravity squeezing, ensure the best quality of tea, and the picking standard is extremely high.

After Ye Han discussed with the tea farmers, he was going to invite 10 tea workers with rich tea picking experience to open the garden; Then, 20 tea workers, a total of 30 tea workers, were hired to pick the tea before the Ming and the rain.
She will set the price a little higher, but the method of picking tea must be standard and skilled, and the picking process is meticulous enough to neither miss the harvest nor harm the tea trees.
Tea before the Ming Dynasty is expensive, tea picking is usually at 7-11 o'clock in the morning, and the income for half a day can reach more than 300 yuan, and the tea becomes more than 200 yuan before the rain; The tea leaves in the back are picked more casually, and sometimes there are only more than 100 in a busy day.
Therefore, March and April are the busiest and most profitable times for tea workers, so skilled workers need to book in advance.
The price given by Ye Han is 400-450 yuan/day, and the price fluctuates according to different picking quantities, which is more than 20% higher than the market.
Tea farmers quickly contacted skilled workers with more than ten years of experience, and the tea picking posture is standard, fast and efficient, and the tea can be picked only after waiting for the tea garden to reach the mining standard.
As for the follow-up operation steps, Boss Feng of the tea house said that he has a full set of machinery and equipment there, and the masters are also experienced masters, so you can go to him.
Ye Han also thinks that it is possible, the two places are very close to each other, and the transportation is very convenient.
Although she was able to set up a greenhouse and introduce various equipment, she was not familiar with the various processes for the first time, and it would be a pity if the quality did not meet expectations.
It's better to familiarize yourself with the process first.
When the time comes, you can pay according to the market price.
Boss Feng asked her the time: "When do you start?" β
Ye Han thought for a while: "It will start from March 17th and 18th. β
Boss Feng's tone was slightly surprised: "You mined so early? β
His tea garden will start on March 22-24 until mid-April, before the Qingming Festival, picking together, not picking after picking; Then before the rain, most of the spring tea picking is these two waves.
Ye Han smiled: "I plan to pick it first." β
Boss Feng was stunned when he heard this.
Or split up?
No, didn't the tea trees only be transplanted in November last year?
After a cold winter, the transplanted tea trees are estimated to have just adapted to it, and now the temperature has just warmed up, how many top buds and young shoots can grow?
Based on his experience in transplanting and cuttings in previous years, the yield of the tea trees in Huajian will definitely have an impact this year, probably only two-thirds of that of Gong Bai's.
30 acres of tea plantations, it is estimated that a total of forty or fifty catties of fine tea will be produced, and it is necessary to find tea workers alone to pick and carry out a series of processing?
The cost is simply too high.
He is reluctant to have 60 acres of tea plantations here, and the cost of picking tea per catty is several hundred, and the unit price must be sold at least 1000-1500 yuan.
At this price, many people will not choose Dongling white tea at all.
However, Boss Feng naturally wouldn't say anything.
Maybe Ye Yuan is rich and rich, so he may be able to keep it for himself or give it to relatives and friends.

will be the item
() After planning one by one, Ye Han gave two more drops of nutrient solution to the tea trees when irrigating, hoping that they could work hard to grow fat buds. ()
When the time comes, you can pick only the top and middle and upper shoots, leaving the side and bottom ones to continue to develop, so as not to affect their growth.
The author of Tan Youzhu Dream reminds you that "My Botanical Garden Exploded on the Internet" was the first time in .? Update the latest chapter, remember [()]?' Come and see the β latest chapters β in full chapters'()
Although the investment in tea trees is large, there is a high yield every year, so there is no need to rush it.
Tea seedlings absorb the nutrient solution from the water, and when they are moved into the tea plantation, they find that they are much shorter than the adult tea trees next to them, so they desperately grow and strive to become taller.
However, other tea trees are not to be outdone.
8-10 years old tea trees are in the prime of life, the ability to absorb water is much stronger than tea seedlings, and the branches can reach forty or fifty, each branch has more than a dozen buds, and some are even as high as more than twenty, which is twice as much as the tea trees in other tea gardens.
Of course, they are also much taller, crowding the gaps around them so dense that they form a bush of their own, and the density is expected to be replanned by next spring.
Ye Han finished irrigating the nutrient solution, and when he was leaving, he happened to hear the conversation of the tea tree seedlings.
Tea Tree Sapling No. 5 was extremely aggrieved: "Woo, obviously I'm also trying to grow up, why aren't they as tall?" The branches are almost blocking me QAQ."
Tea tree seedling No. 6 also wilted: "I'm not a big tea tree!" I'm so short, whoa, whoa, whoaβ"
And the tea tree seedling No. 3, who has a steady personality, is comforting the other seedlings: "Don't worry, we will grow up." β
β¦β¦
Ye Han couldn't help laughing, and couldn't help but step forward and touch the leaf of No. 5: "You are only half a year old, you have grown very tall, and you will grow taller than them when you are 8 years old." β
Tea Tree Sapling No. 5 stopped whimpering: "Really, really? β
Ye Han: "Of course it's true. β
She didn't lie, the tea trees that grew up in the flower collection must be more lush than the ones that were transplanted halfway.
Pushing aside the branches above its head, Tea Tree Seedling No. 5 was bathed in not too strong sunlight and quickly became happy.
Ye Han continued to look at No. 6: "You will be a big tea tree next year, I promise." β
Tea tree seedling No. 6 rubbed her fingertips with a branch: "Hmph, there is no basis for what you say, let's pull the hook as proof." β
"Okay." Ye Han smiled and hooked his little thumb to its branch and shook it, which was considered to have fulfilled his promise.
Tea Tree Seedling No. 6 shook its leaves, obviously motivated.
Tea Tree Sapling No. 3 said in a calm tone: "Thank you for comforting them." β
"You're welcome." Ye Hanxing's eyes were bent, and he felt that its serious appearance was very cute, so he squatted down and looked at the sixty-centimeter-tall small tea tree, which was obviously only such a small one, and his voice was still very immature-
She stroked the leaves of the other party with her fingertips, and now she has revealed the characteristics of Dongling white tea, the new leaves are light green and white, which is very beautiful.
Tea Tree Sapling No. 3 trembled sensitively, but didn't say anything.
Good behaved.
Ye Hanxing's eyes smiled, but he immediately withdrew his hand and left the tea garden with light steps.

After this period of cultivation, Darwin Orchid, Black Beauty Orchid, Feiyun Orchid, Tea Tree Miao No. 3 and Hewang Orchid have all reached the standard of S-level plants.
Among the peach blossoms planted last month, the best quality peach trees, such as weeping peach and red peach
(), and several peony and rose varieties have reached the A grade (), plus the previous 18 A-grade plantsβ()β[()]γCome [].See the latest chapter. Complete chapter'(), 89β° is 89β° away from completing the 350β° task.
About half of the task of introducing 200 species and 3,000 flowers is completed, and more flowers need to be introduced.
Ye Han is ready to go to L City to introduce valuable peony varieties.
As the saying goes, 'Luoyang peony is the best in the world', and its peony is the first in international competitions and various awards, so it is right to introduce it from there.
She has searched for the location of the relevant cultivation center in advance, and has also consulted on the price, and now what she needs to do is to go and select flowers that are in good condition, and at the same time introduce a few 'peony Kao' plants that are more than 30 years old to create a special Kao viewing area.
Of course, at present, this is only an assumption, and it is necessary to see it on the spot.
These large peony flowers are all priced per plant, and some plants are not necessarily easy to sell as a signboard for the flower base, so they need to be negotiated at that time.
L city is a certain distance from W city, but the domestic transportation is relatively convenient, and it only takes an hour for a direct plane flight. Ye Han planned 5 days, which was enough time to explore the cultivation center and flower base.
Wang Yun booked the first-class cabin the morning after tomorrow, and Ye Han just arranged the things in the garden in the past two days, checked the status of the plants by the way, and configured the nutrient solution to be automatically watered.
Darwinland and Dalwinium end their flowering around mid-February, but their pollen has long been stored in the laboratory.
In two months, the team led by Dr. Yu has continuously overcome the problems of low temperature preservation of pollen, low probability of parental pollination and aseptic sowing, and is cultivating seedlings in the sterile room, and will test the survival rate and perform gene sequencing after the seedlings grow.
If the survival rate is maintained at a high level, and the genes perfectly inherit the characteristics of the parents, it is expected to solve the difficulties of artificial breeding. If the probability of cultivation is low, it is necessary to continue to consider other methods such as IVF flowering hybrid breeding technology.
But it can be reproduced.
It's just that it's more difficult, and it can't be cultivated in batches for the time being.
That's already good.
Hearing Dr. Yu's achievements, Ye Han was a little relieved, otherwise she would have no way to explain to Darwinland.
Every time she used Goldfinger, the other party would repeat the fragmented thoughts of 'why did it evolve like this?', and if it continued like this, she was really worried that something would go wrong with the spirit of this orchid.
The orchid is very cute, the pocket below is full of pollen, it is a pity that so much pollen is wasted, and she does not want such a lovely orchid to become an endangered species.
If pollination and breeding are solved, not only will the diversity of species be maintained, but for Ye Han, the task of 'saving 8 endangered plants and allowing them to reproduce naturally' will also be half completed.
So she has been paying attention to this aspect, hoping to make a breakthrough as soon as possible.
......
Ancient Tree District.
Before Ye Han left, he went to check the state of the peach tree as usual.
After 9 months of rescue, this ancient tree, which has been battered by wind and rain for more than 400 years and half of the trunk broken from the base, has now completely regained its vitality, the dead branches have peeled off and rejuvenated, and the leaves are green, and the former shriveled and decayed appearance can no longer be seen.
In particular, the broken part has grown thoroughly under the support of the scaffold and the irrigation of the plant nutrient solution, and the shelf can be put on after a while
() Dismantled, supporting the huge coiled branches and full bore on its own.
When the time comes, it will be a national second-class ancient and famous tree with lush branches, huge crown width, and an age of more than 400 years!
It is not the peach tree that was about to die, and even the ancient tree management department almost gave up.
There is a world of difference between the two.
When the people from the ancient tree management department came to inspect it when they heard the news, they were quite shocked.
In particular, Gao Yu initially did technical assistance for the peach tree, and later came to explore it when he introduced the ancient osmanthus tree, and watched this weeping and old tree that could not be repaired step by step become what it is today.
It is a miracle in the history of ancient tree conservation!
Several other experts are responsible for different geographical areas and do not know much about this ancient tree.
However, this kind of ancient and famous trees have data archives, and every once in a while there will be commissioners to record the growth status, so they all get photo information.
All of them were stunned for a while.
They looked at the photos before the rescue, and then looked up at the peach tree in front of them, and everyone felt incredulous.
Is this really the original peach tree?!
The tree in front of me, if it weren't for the photos, no one would have thought that it would be the old old tree with a broken trunk, carbonized base, and half of it dead, exuding the smell of decay.
And now, like a peach tree in its prime, it can live for another 500 years.
Someone subconsciously checked the information: "Peach tree, more than 400 years old, ancient tree protection number ......"
That's right, that's it.
That's it!!
Oh my God, how the hell did you do that?!
Several experts have turned their attention to Ye Han, and it is said that the young director rescued him.
Not only this one, but also that ancient laurel tree.
So Ye Han was quickly surrounded, these experts changed their usual majestic expressions, and everyone's faces were full of eagerness and excitement, making her almost unbearable.
In the end, this matter was successfully published on the most influential local public account in W City, which caused a heated discussion; Ye Han was also invited to become a special consultant of the ancient tree management department, and the application and process of introducing trees in the future will undoubtedly be more convenient.
At this time, Ye Han was surprised to find that some of the branches of the peach tree actually grew pale pink buds.
Earlier than the peach trees in the peach blossom forest.
The peach tree began to hum and chirp: "Hmph, I have said it a long time ago, the master will bloom this year!" βοΌ
