Leisurely monastic life

Chapter 501 Cold Resistant Varieties
Luo Baolin was very worried that all the vegetables in Tianwang would freeze to death the next day, so he said to Luo Tianwang, "Tianwang, the seedlings just came out and couldn't stand the freezing, or we should use mulch to prevent freezing. Let it out. What do you think?"

Luo Tianwang shook his head and said with a smile: "Grandpa, don't worry. I know it well. Miaozi won't die, you can go to the field to see tomorrow. This time, I made a bet with Liu Huilan. If I change my mind at this time, In the future on the farm, I will have no right to speak."

Luo Baolin sighed: "You shouldn't bet on this. The temperature is quite low these few nights, and the seedlings will definitely freeze to death. From now on, this farm won't trust you anymore. You are still too young."

Xiao Chunxiu disagreed with Luo Baolin's opinion: "I don't think Huilan is that kind of person. He is also doing it for the good of Tianwang. If you say this, it seems that Huilan wants to take over Tianwang's power. Fortunately, there are no outsiders here. In the future, Huilan will work as hard as she does now?"

"That's the way it is. After all, Tianwang is the boss. If there is such a big mess this time, who will listen to Tianwang in the future? Tianwang said that he will not interfere with the farm's affairs in the future. Doesn't this mean that he has been emptied Is it?" Luo Baolin said.

"Forget it, forget it, stop arguing, it's a very common thing, but the more you talk about it, the more complicated it is." Luo Tianwang said with a wry smile.

When Li Shishi returned home, Luo Baolin told Li Shishi about this again, and asked Li Shishi to persuade Luo Tianwang.

"Shishi, you have to talk about Tianwang about this matter. He doesn't pay attention to the influence of what he says. After all, he is the owner of the farm now. When talking to the employees, he still has to be careful. You see, he made a bet with Liu Huilan today .If you lose the bet, Liu Huilan will have the final say on the farm in the future. Isn't this a loss of the right to speak?"

Li Shishi said with a smile: "Grandpa, don't think about it. Liu Huilan is very effective in the farm now, and she and Luo Shuigen are very loyal to Luo Tianwang. If you say that, if someone else hears it, it's not because Liu Huilan Are you coldhearted with Luo Shuigen? She persuaded Tianwang for Tianwang itself, not for power. Moreover, this bet was initiated by Tianwang himself. The purpose was to let Liu Huilan and the others not object to his opinion. Because, they I think Tianwang's cultivation method is too risky."

"I know this. Luo Shuigen has changed a lot now, and Liu Huilan is also very capable, and she does her best. I am just worried that the power is in the hands of others. After a long time, people's hearts will change." Luo Baolin even used TV dramas plot to prove his point.

"Grandpa, why can't I tell you clearly? It was because I was [-]% sure of this method that I decided to do it. It wasn't impulsive. Everyone has never seen it before, so naturally they are worried about my cultivation technique. .So I want to make this bet with them, just to make them trust me more in the future." Luo Tianwang said.

"In this way, Tianwang's authority is immediately established. Tianwang never does anything he is not sure of. Therefore, since he dared to make this bet, it is because he is [-]% sure." Li Shishi laughed.

As soon as it got dark, the temperature seemed to drop all of a sudden, and even the bright moonlight seemed to carry a chill.The mist slowly shrouded, and the bright moon became hazy in the white mist.The poetic flavor of the moon setting, crows and frost all over the sky spread in the small village.

When I opened the door and looked outside at night, I could see the mist pouring into the house like a tide from the light shining from the house.

"Tianwang, look, tomorrow we're going to play Gouyashuang again. You must have lost this bet," Luo Baolin said.

At this time, the light of a flashlight outside the door shone.With flashlights on, the two creaked on the frostbitten road towards Luo Tianwang's house.

"Tianwang, are you asleep?" It was Luo Shuigen's voice.

"Shuigen, it's so late, are you here?" Luo Tianwang was a little surprised by Luo Shuigen's arrival.

"Tianwang, I shouldn't bet with you yesterday." Liu Huilan followed Luo Shuigen into the house.

"The two of you didn't go to bed early at night, but you came here to tell me about this?" Luo Tianwang smiled.

"No. I went home today and gave Huilan a good scolding. I shouldn't bet with you. No matter what you do wrong or right, this farm is your farm after all, and everyone has to listen to you." Luo Shuigen said.

"Wait. Shuigen, be honest, do you really think I can win?" Luo Tianwang said.

"Well, it doesn't really matter whether you win or lose. The big deal is just a little time delay. Let's hurry up to buy materials for the greenhouse, build the greenhouse, and then plant it again. What Huilan told you before was all angry words. On the farm, no matter what It's up to you, if Huilan dares not to listen, I'll take care of her when I go back!" In order to show his determination, Luo Shuigen turned his head and glared at Liu Huilan.

"Pfft!" Luo Tianwang couldn't help laughing out loud.

Li Shishi also covered her mouth, but it can be seen from the unnatural movements of her body that she is also quite happy.

"Hmm." Liu Huilan cleared her throat.

"Of course, don't look at me often giving way to Huilan outside, it's because I give her face. At home, I have the final say. Huilan, do you think so? Huh? Right?" Luo Shuigen She winked at Liu Huilan.

"Forget it, forget it, you two don't act. Who doesn't know that you, Luo Shuigen, are a strict wife?" Luo Tianwang laughed.

"Tianwang, it's true. Mine, Huilan, say something!" Luo Shuigen was anxious.

"Shuigen, stop making trouble, okay? After all, you still don't have confidence in me. It's true that the temperature is very low tonight. But if you go to see it tomorrow morning, none of our vegetable seedlings are frozen to death. It's not so easy to freeze Die. Believe me. This time, we have to save the seeds for the vegetables, and these seeds will be more resistant to cold in the future. Using plastic greenhouses seems to be good. But we can’t grow our ecological vegetables. Ordinary vegetables, what do I use them for? Ordinary vegetables are only a few yuan a catty in big cities. Before they are transported to big cities, the cost of vegetables is only a few yuan. When will we invest so much? Can the cost be recovered? Even if some of the seedlings are frozen to death, even if only a few seedlings survive, it is a great success for us. We are sure to plant cold-resistant varieties next time." Luo Tianwang said.

"It turned out to be your plan. Then there's no problem. Tianwang. Don't worry, I'll explain it to the folks on the farm later. That's all for tomorrow's bet. You are the boss, how can I not listen to you What about it?" Liu Huilan said.

"No. We're still willing to bet and admit defeat. If I lose, I won't make random decisions about the farm in the future. It's all up to you to manage it." Luo Tianwang said.

"Tianwang, do you want to be the hands-off shopkeeper? So you deliberately lost this bet." Luo Shuigen said.

Luo Tianwang kicked it directly, causing Luo Shuigen to stagger: "Who said I lost the bet on purpose? I am sure of winning."

"Okay, okay, we must win, we must win, the boss must win." Luo Shuigen hurriedly begged for mercy.

"Nothing." Liu Huilan cursed.

Luo Tianwang persuaded Luo Shuigen and his wife to go back with all kinds of talk.

"It seems that someone in the village is gossiping. The couple must be worried, so they came here." Luo Tianwang said.

"You too, how can you make such a bet with Huilan? Isn't this putting Huilan on the fire? It's too inappropriate." Li Shishi gave Luo Tianwang a white look.

"Isn't this just to convince them more? Otherwise, every time I make a decision, they will always disobey me. Let me waste a lot of time on convincing. The farm will be bigger one day " said Luo Tianwang.

"Is it true that those vegetable seedlings won't freeze to death?" Li Shishi asked with a chuckle.

"Go to sleep. We'll find out tomorrow morning." Luo Tianwang said with a smile.

The temperature was very low in the morning, and even the hot air exhaled formed dew on the pillow and quilt.In this old-fashioned bungalow, the indoor temperature is not much higher than the outdoor temperature.Definitely below zero too.

With a wave of Luo Tianwang's hand, the humidity in the room was swept away, and the air became much milder.In fact, it would not be difficult for Luo Tianwang to raise the indoor temperature, but he didn't want to make his home too weird.

Luo Baolin and Xiao Chunxiu also got up early. It seems that the farm affairs made the old couple of Luo Baolin not sleep well.

Li Shishi also got up early in the morning, and when she saw Tian Wang, she immediately said, "Go, go and see your vegetable seedlings. If you lose the bet today, it will be nice. You, a big boss, admit defeat in front of the employees."

"You can't say something good. Didn't you see that grandparents are so worried?" Luo Tianwang scratched Li Shishi's nose.

Li Shishi stuck out her tongue, and hurriedly said to Luo Baolin and Xiao Chunxiu: "Grandpa, grandma, Tianwang is full of bad things, and I have never seen him suffer. This time, Liu Huilan and the others will be deceived by him once."

"Let's go and have a look." Luo Baolin was not worried at all.Stride to the farm.

The employees of the farm are also very active, and they put a lot of effort into the vegetables grown on the farm.They also want to see if all the vegetable seedlings that have been planted with great effort are frozen to death?

"Changqing, you came quite early." Luo Guangfu also rushed over early.

"Isn't this here to see if Tianwang's planting method is successful? If it is successful, it will save a lot of costs for the greenhouse." Luo Changqing said.

"That's true." Luo Guangfu nodded.

Luo Changqing and Luo Guangfu walked quickly to the farm.

Liu Huilan couldn't fall asleep all night, and she was so talented that she couldn't sleep anymore.Luo Shuigen snored in a heartless sleep. When Liu Huilan got up, he grabbed Liu Huilan's arm: "Mother, it's not yet dawn. Why are you waking up so early? Sleep a little longer."

"I can't sleep, don't make trouble, I have to go to the field to look at the vegetable seedlings. If they all freeze to death, I have to buy materials for building a plastic greenhouse today. This can't be built all at once. You have to hurry up." Liu Huilan said.

Seeing Liu Huilan get up, Luo Shuigen didn't doze off anymore, and got up quickly.After washing up, he followed Liu Huilan to the farm.

"Hui Lan, look quickly! This vegetable seedling doesn't seem to have been frozen to death! It seems to have grown a lot taller. This is really strange, such a tender seedling, after being frozen all night, has not been frozen to death, and has grown taller So many. It seems that you lost." Luo Shuigen said.

Liu Huilan burst into tears.

"Isn't it just losing? What's the important thing, and it's not losing to others. Isn't it normal to lose to Tianwang? Tianwang has been a man since he was a child. When he was a few years old, he was able to make me miserable. Now Being so big, I don't know how much better than when I was a child." Luo Shuigen was absolutely convinced by Luo Tianwang.

Liu Huilan smiled and said, "Aren't I happy? Tianwang invested so much, if these seedlings die, how much will it cost? Now that the seedlings are not dead, I'm too happy. I also hope that I lost the bet."

"Hui Lan, how is Miao Zi?" Luo Changqing asked loudly from a distance.

"Tianwang won! Miaozi didn't freeze to death! She even grew taller!" Liu Huilan said loudly.

"It's been a long time. I've been planting a field all my life, but I've never seen cucumbers growing in winter. I even let Tianwang grow them. In such a cold day, if flowers bloom, can cucumbers really grow?" Luo Baolin asked again. asked worriedly.

"The temperature is too low. I'm afraid there are no insects coming out to pollinate. But we can use artificial pollination. We are afraid of snow. When it snows, these cucumber seedlings will all be covered by heavy snow." Luo Guangfu said worriedly.

Before reaching the vegetable planting base, Luo Baolin and Xiao Chunxiu had already heard Liu Huilan's shout.

"Old man, I told you that Tianwang will definitely win, how about it? Now you know I'm right?" Xiao Chunxiu said proudly.

Luo Baolin was happy in his heart, but he didn't say anything.This made him very embarrassed.

Luo Tianwang and Li Shishi laughed all the way, not worried at all that the vegetable seedlings in the vegetable base would not grow.

"So do you. If you make grandparents so worried, I don't think they slept well all night." Li Shishi pinched Luo Tianwang's waist with her hand and exerted a little force.

"It's fine. Grandpa and grandma are in good health. They can sleep soundly tonight." Luo Tianwang laughed.

"Who knows what you won't bother about tomorrow!" Li Shishi laughed.

The whole village went to the vegetable base to watch the excitement, and they were amazed when they saw the cucumber seedlings in the field.

"It's so rare that such good vegetable seedlings can grow in such cold weather."

"That's not right. Now we'll see if the cucumber can bear fruit in winter."

"That's true. After a while, I'm afraid it will snow, and the temperature will be even lower then. I'm afraid the cucumber seedlings won't be able to survive this period."

"That's not necessarily the case. If someone else grows vegetables, this seedling will grow? But Tianwang planted it. It means that Tianwang's cucumber seedlings are not ordinary. It must be a cold-resistant variety."

Liu Huilan on the side smiled wryly: Where did the cold-resistant varieties come from? They are all seeds bought casually in the seed shop in the town.
