Chapter 533: New Unreliable Suggestions

~8 min read 1,482 words

Zhang Yanping was suddenly generous, that's not because he is honest and has no heart, he has many hearts!

First, this is Professor Song! Can the things he introduces be bad? If the other party sends bad ones, it's clearly a slap in the face!

Second, even if it's really bad, he has seen Professor Song's character, he must be guilty, and if he is guilty, he wants to compensate...

Third, Tantan said while eating, Professor Song brought three students, who are very capable, and free!

This kind of honest person, he says two sentences that people like to hear, isn't that what he should do?

It was Professor Song who didn't expect it, and at this moment he became cautious and hesitant:

"Spices are not cheap either. If you want so many at once, what if it's not suitable? Why don't you send samples to try the taste first?"

Zhang Yanping thought that sending a sample takes two or three days, trying the taste takes two or three days, and then sending it back takes another two or three days... Counting it up, the store will be empty for a week!

In such hot weather, if the online store has no business, won't he be dragged to break corn? He heard that the family is preparing to break corn these two days...

Thinking of this, Zhang Yanping became more determined: "It's okay, Professor Song, you said it's good, then I believe it ten thousand times! No need to try at all!"

Poor Professor Song, at such an old age, what kind of people hasn't he seen! But he just hasn't seen Zhang Yanping, who looks black, strong, and fierce, but speaks so sincerely and generously!

At this moment, his mood became more agitated, and he couldn't help but say: "Actually, I have an idea. Our place is not small. If you have a great demand for spices in the future, do you consider planting them yourself?"

Huh?

Song Tan leaned over: "Planting spices?"

"Yes!" Professor Song said: "I saw it, you planted a star anise on the mountain behind, and green and red Sichuan peppercorns. Because they are not mature, I don't know the quality... but their growth and fruit rate are particularly excellent!"

"This proves that your family's water and soil are indeed okay."

Speaking of his major, Professor Song's eyes were shining, but he reacted quickly:

"No—I just remembered, it snows here in winter, and the lowest temperature has been below zero? Star anise and Sichuan peppercorns are okay. But Cao Guo (black cardamom) is not."

"I originally thought that on the chestnut forest side, black fungus and white fungus could be expanded next year."

"Pick a place around the pond in the valley to make an orchard, and you can plant Cao Guo under the orchard—you know Cao Guo, right? That spice, it's not difficult to plant, and the light requirement is not high."

"However, it can't survive the winter, and it grows well in high-altitude humid areas..."

After calculating these spices, Professor Song could only give up helplessly: "It was me who didn't consider it at the beginning... it's still not suitable."

Song Tan didn't care: "It doesn't matter, spices are not used much, just plant a little bit of the common ones in the corners and try it."

It was Seventh Uncle who was listening nearby and didn't leave. Hearing this, he felt a bit regretful: "Can't plant it? I was thinking that if I planted it, I would match a marinade bag later, it must be especially fragrant. The marinade bag is not used much, and it can also be sold in the online store..."

Zhang Yanping felt heartache, as if watching money fly away!

He was unwilling: "Can it really not survive the winter? We don't have minus six or seven degrees all the time here, just occasionally, most of the time it's minus three or four degrees."

Professor Song was also helpless: "Sichuan peppercorns are fine, but Cao Guo doesn't grow below 10 degrees. If it's below 1 degree, it's even more dangerous..."

Grandpa Qi Lin had been listening silently and suddenly spoke: "Teacher, I think we can try."

Professor Song thought for a while: "Do you want to cover with film? Then the planting cost is high. And what about summer? It's not heat-resistant either."

"There is a place that should be okay." Grandpa Qi Lin shook his head.

Although the altitude here is not enough, but... he has also been to places with enough altitude, which agricultural product can compare with Song Tan's family?

Since this is the case...

"Choose a piece of slope land by the pond to be an orchard, choose taller fruit trees, ensure half shading on the upper layer, and you can plant some Cao Guo underneath to try—Cao Guo should be topped when it grows to about 1.2 meters, and most fruit trees can have this height."

Grandpa Qi Lin gestured while speaking:

"Song Tan, on the slope of the valley behind your mountain, there is a corner. We found it when we passed by. It's quite cool, and the measured temperature is 33 degrees."

You know, it's 38 degrees elsewhere at this time!

"Cao Guo is suitable for 10-25 degrees. After proper shading, it should barely be close..."

He said, and he felt a bit guilty himself: "Forget it, it's still difficult... This is not a crop here originally, let's change to another one."

Don't!

Song Tan stopped him: "Tell me more, what else is so difficult?"

It sounds quite interesting... mainly, intercropping doesn't take up land. And Seventh Uncle is listening intently!

A qualified proprietor, of course, must respect the chef's ideas!

Grandpa Qi Lin:...

Grandpa Qi Lin had to bite the bullet and continue thinking:

"As for surviving the winter... look at the climate, it's possible from August to December. After harvesting, you can cut off the old leaves and wait for new buds to sprout in the spring... In this case, use grass piles or film to cover and keep warm in winter, it should be worth a try."

Professor Song furrowed his brows.

As a student for many years, Grandpa Qi Lin also knew what Professor Song meant, but looking at Song Tan's shining eyes, he could only force a smile: "I was thinking, there are not many crops that need shading. Intercropping in the orchard is just an attempt."

"If it really can't survive the winter, but the first year's Cao Guo has already been harvested, at the price of your family, Song Tan, even if you don't make money, you won't lose much, right?"

From here, you can see that Grandpa Qi Lin is indeed not suitable for fighting alone—

You know, most people who ask agricultural experts, the planting demand is to make money! If the economic benefit is not high, they have to retreat!

If you say another sentence that it might lose money... what doesn't lose too much? Losing money is not okay!

What's more, there are thousands of plants in the world, and there are so many choices, who wants to increase the difficulty for themselves!

But Song Tan is different!

She is first curious about the taste, and secondly... secondly, she is sure that she will not lose money. Even if she loses, she can afford it!

Looking at Seventh Uncle again, his eyes are shining!

He couldn't wait to start thinking: "Cao Guo's taste is also quite domineering, the dosage is not large, Song Tan, if you plant it, I will match the marinade bag later, buy others, and use what is at home if there is any... The flavor must also be very unique, right?"

Song Tan suddenly realized!

Wonderful!

Making money is still Seventh Uncle's way of making money!

If you say so, spices can't all be planted, Sichuan peppercorns and star anise can also be tried! They sound much lower in requirements than this Cao Guo!

"Okay!"

Song Tan made a decision immediately: "Just plant this! What fruit trees to choose later, you think about it again?"

Professor Song:...

It's quite unexpected. Even if he said it was not suitable and it was easy to lose money, Song Tan was still willing to try!

However, he was here to help, not to give bad ideas and hold people back. He looked at Grandpa Qi Lin again—this topic is very worthy of students to follow up and accumulate experience.

Therefore, he gave a method to make up for it:

"Cao Guo has high requirements for humidity. Since this is the case, you might as well consider intercropping some high-priced mushrooms." ===== CHAPTER 534 =====
