I Run a Gas Station in the Northwest

Chapter 32 Talking About Saplings

Although Chen Mu is single now, it is not that he has never fallen in love.

Father and mother have been fighting for so many years outside, he was raised alone with his grandparents, and he has enough pocket money in his hands, no one cares about pick-up paper or anything, so he gets along with girls There will be no obstacles at all.

Although this was his first one-on-one contact with a Uighur girl, apart from the small tension at the beginning when he saw a beautiful woman, the Uighur girl was also a girl to him, so he quickly relaxed.

"Looking at how easy you speak Mandarin, you should have studied somewhere near the sea, right?"

"Yes, I have studied in Beijing for two years." After a slight pause, Anal Guli said again: "Later I went to study abroad and I just came back this year."

Chen Mu secretly broke his fingers and forgot. The Uighur girl looked older than him, she was a gold brick.

"How about you?"

Anal Guli looked at Chen Mu curiously and asked.

She has the deep eyes and high nose that are unique to Uighurs, and her complexion is delicate and fair. When she stares at people, she looks like watery and very beautiful.

Chen Mu felt that Anal Guli's expression at this moment was very similar to Guli Nana's, and he couldn't help being electrified, but his physique was relatively resistant to such electric currents, so he touched his nose. Ignore the past.

After thinking about it, he truthfully introduced his situation, without any adjectives, just plain, simple and clear.

"Oh, so you are now operating a gas station!"

There was a trace of doubt in Anal Guli's eyes. She didn't hide it, she just said: "This is really strange. You don't have any special place, why is my dad so nervous? Want to push me out to have a blind date with you?"

This was a bit of a loss of a flying knife, but Chen Mu didn't have a glass heart, because he could see that the Uighur girl was simply curious.

Shaking his head, Chen Mu said, "I don't know why. To be honest, I was a little caught off guard today."

Being caught off guard is true, but the root of today's blind date, he vaguely thought of a possibility.

He instinctively felt that it was Mullah Ali Mu who liked him, and the reason why the old man fell in love with him seemed a bit nonsense: he was favored by the wild camel and he was blessed by Hu Da.

Can this happen?

Chen Mu didn't know what the specific situation was, but it was really a blind date with a strong aftertaste.

Of course, he can also see that this blind date will not have any results. The Uighur girl is not the kind of person who is at the mercy of the family, and he...well, dating a beautiful woman... What he said seriously about the relationship that presupposes marriage, even if Di Lire and Gulinana came in person.

Therefore, his heart suddenly became more casual.

Anal Guli still looked at Chen Mu for unknown reasons, as if she was still trapped by the doubts in her heart.

When Chen Mu saw that she was not talking, he started a new topic: "You said you studied abroad, what did you learn?"

Anal Guli replied: "I am studying agriculture, um, mainly in biotechnology."

Agricultural biotechnology... feels very high.

"Such a good professional, are you planning to return to work in China?"

"I'm already working now, in the scientific research institute of a state-owned forestry company."

"Forest company?"

When Chen Mu heard this answer, he immediately became interested: "Does your company sell saplings? If you do, I can visit you. I plant a lot of trees. I have planted thousands of trees in the last month. Up."

Anal Guli pursed his lips and shook his head and said, "Although our company is a forestry company, it mainly does seedling cultivation. The saplings produced by our seedling factory are generally contracted by large institutions. It is rarely sold externally."

Chen Mu doesn’t know much about forestry. Hearing Anal Guli say this, he knew that he was shy. It turned out that the forestry company in Bahe Town is different from the forestry company that sells tree seedlings. He can’t help but smile a little embarrassed .

But he didn't feel ashamed to show his timidity in front of other beauties, so he immediately followed up and asked for popular science: "Then tell me what your forestry company does, so that I can gain insight."

Obviously, Anal Guli didn’t care about Chen Mu’s level of knowledge and what he did. He asked him and answered: “The country has been promoting large-scale crop planting over the years, as well as developing public welfare greening. Planting, so the demand for seedlings and crop seedlings in various places is rising. Well, take our Northwest for example. Our Northwest Shelterbelt Project has never stopped since 1979. Since we want to plant trees, we need to have saplings. , And it is also a good seedling that can resist drought and tolerate barrenness...

Listening to the story of the Uighur girl, Chen Mu gradually gained a certain understanding of the business operated by the nursery company.

To put it bluntly, it means doing research, cultivating seedlings that can adapt to various environments and are easy to survive, and mass-produce them to make a profit.

Chen Mu studied economics. He easily understands how forestry companies generate profits through normal economic activities, and he is not very interested. What he is interested in is how to keep tree saplings alive.

After planting trees in his own "forest farm" during this period, he discovered that not all saplings can survive when planted. For the saplings he currently planted, only about 80% can survive. The rest Ten to twenty percent of saplings will die.

You must know that the environment around the gas station is not bad anymore. He tried to do the watering as much as possible, but even so, the saplings would still die.

Therefore, Chen Mu asked without shame: "It's great. Today is considered an expert, beauty, you can tell me why the saplings I planted die? Are the saplings I sold not good?"

After listening to Anal Guli, after thinking about it, he said, "You will call me Anal from now on. My Xia classmates call me that."

After a slight pause, she went on to say: "The newly planted saplings will die. In fact, there are many reasons, not necessarily because of the quality of the saplings."

"Isn't it the sapling's problem? What's the problem? I have watering everything. We don't lack water there."

"That's it. Since you mentioned watering, then I will talk to you about watering. There are actually three taboos for watering: First, avoid watering under the scorching sun at noon. The correct way is to avoid strong sunlight. In the morning, evening, or rainy days; second, avoid too much water at one time, no matter how dry the place where the saplings are planted, do not overdo it; third, avoid using well water as water source when the temperature is higher... "

"Oh, that's the case. We use well water. It seems that we have to pay attention to it in the future."

"Actually, I think that if the survival rate of the saplings is not high, it is probably because of the temperature difference. The temperature difference between our day and night is too large, so the damage to the saplings is also high..."

...

The two people just sat in the teahouse and chatted together. If someone who knew they were on a blind date saw it from a distance, they would definitely think they had a play.

But in fact, the two of them had questions and answers, it was completely the teaching mode in the classroom, and it had nothing to do with blind dates at all.
