After the wood spirit root awakens, you will reap what you sow and bring it to the motherland

Chapter 31 Mingzhu, do you want to grow strawberries?

Come if you want, why do you all carry so many bags?

It’s not even the twelfth lunar month yet, why are you wishing New Year’s greetings so soon?

As it turned out, Gu Mingzhu was overthinking.

As soon as she got out of the car, Sun Dazhi said enthusiastically: "Mingzhu, we have submitted the report and are now waiting for a reply from the higher-ups."

"I thought it would be a waste of time to just wait, so I brought you some seedlings and seeds from our department's greenhouse."

"The seedlings and seeds of these fruits are not easy to grow in our area. Several experts have tried, but the survival rate is no more than 5% in the end."

The low survival rate would be bad enough, but the worst thing is that even if these seedlings are really grown, they will not bloom and bear fruit in the end.

Fruits are a rare commodity these days.

If Mingzhu can make these seeds germinate and the seedlings grow healthily, it will definitely be great news for Daxia!

At this point, Sun Dazhi couldn't suppress his excitement and anticipation, "Mingzhu, if you can improve their survival rate, you will definitely be a great contributor!"

Gu Mingzhu didn't care at all whether he was a hero or not.

What she cared about was that these were actually fruit seedlings and fruit seeds!
She was a little worried. "Chief Sun, these are rare things! Are you really willing to give me all these seedlings and seeds!?"

Sun Dazhi nodded without hesitation, "Mingzhu, I believe in you! If even you can't grow it well, we will be even more helpless."

Starting from the first year of the apocalypse, fruit trees all over the world died or stopped producing.

The fruits that are still on sale now were basically stored in cold storage a few years ago.

If we can't find a way to make the fruit trees bloom and bear fruit, after a year or two, the stock will be eaten up, and the fruit will really be more expensive than silver!
To this end, experts from domestic agricultural departments and agricultural science academies are trying to find ways to solve this problem.

But after three years of hard work, not only have most of the existing fruit trees died, but the seed germination rate is also getting lower and lower every year.

Of the seeds that finally germinate, less than half can grow into seedlings.

This one has grown into a seedling and has been growing for three years, but is still less than one meter tall.

After explaining the growth conditions of fruit trees in China to Gu Mingzhu in detail, Sun Dazhi said, "Anyway, we won't be able to grow any fruit from these seedlings and seeds."

"Just give it a try. Don't feel any psychological pressure."

Since he said so, Gu Mingzhu was not polite.

She parked the tricycle and immediately took them to the greenhouse on the other side of the orchard.

Because some vegetables had been harvested two days ago, there is now enough space in the greenhouse to grow crops.

She picked up the hoe and started to turn the soil. Seeing this, Sun Dazhi and the others also started to work one by one.

Although they were officials, they came from the Ministry of Agriculture after all, and were much more efficient at doing farm work than Gu Mingzhu.

Look, in no time, the land was prepared.

Sun Dazhi handed the seedlings and seeds to Gu Mingzhu: "Mingzhu, we can't help you with the rest of the work, you have to do it yourself."

Gu Mingzhu smiled and nodded, "Chief Sun, you guys take a break, I'll be fine soon."

The reason why she was so active was not just to help Section Chief Sun.

She also needs to verify whether she can grow fruits well!
After all, the system has not been upgraded yet, so fruits cannot be grown in the space.

If she could grow fruit in real life, she would plant fruit trees in the orchard immediately after the New Year!
Fruits are much more expensive than vegetables!

If they could really make the fruit trees bloom and bear fruit, she and Minghua would become extremely rich!
Thinking of this, Gu Mingzhu's hands moved faster. Seeing her quick and rough movements, the men under Sun Dazhi dared not breathe, fearing that she would accidentally pinch off the thin seedling.

During this time, they kept looking at their section chief, asking him with their eyes: Section Chief, don't we really remind her to be gentler?
These seedlings were cultivated with great efforts of several bigwigs in the department.

It would be such a pity if he was strangled to death like this!

Sun Dazhi's heart skipped a beat when he saw Gu Mingzhu's actions.

But he waved his hand, signaling his men to be quiet.

This girl has her own way.

People can grow small vegetable seedlings into big vegetables in just one month, and they can be sold within several days!

With this ability, not to mention the big guys in the department, even the experts in the Academy of Agricultural Sciences can’t match it!

Otherwise, he would not have taken the initiative to move all these seedlings and seeds.

Gu Mingzhu didn't know that these seedlings and seeds were obtained by Sun Dazhi on his own initiative.

After she planted the seedlings, she scattered the seeds randomly in the small piece of soil next door.

Because the greenhouse was connected to water pipes, she didn't need to fetch water herself this time. She just turned on the faucet and the water poured.

After finishing all this, she clapped her hands and said to Sun Dazhi: "Chief Sun, if everything goes well, these seeds will sprout in about a week."

"Come back and have a look then..."

One week! ?

When Gu Mingzhu said this, Sun Dazhi's men were dumbfounded, "You are not kidding us, are you?"

The big guys in their department watched over these seeds for more than half a month before they sprouted!

And the greenhouse in their department is much better than the one here!
How could a little girl like her make the seeds germinate in such a short time?!
"Xiao Wang! Shut up!"

Sun Dazhi scolded him, then looked at Gu Mingzhu a little embarrassedly, "Mingzhu, Xiao Wang is young and hot-tempered, and his words may not be thought-provoking. Don't take it to heart."

Of course Gu Mingzhu wouldn't mind.

She smiled and said, "It's normal for Xiao Wang to worry. To be honest, I'm not sure myself. After all, these are fruit seeds, which are somewhat different from vegetable seeds."

Any vegetable seeds that have passed through her hands can basically germinate in about a week.

It is warmer in the greenhouse than outside, and sprouts have appeared in four or five days.

But this was her first time planting fruit seeds, so it was hard to say whether they would succeed.

But the next second, Gu Mingzhu asked Section Chief Sun, "Section Chief Sun, do you know where to find strawberry seedlings?"

strawberry?

When Sun Dazhi heard this, he immediately understood what she meant, "Mingzhu, you want to grow strawberries?"

Gu Mingzhu nodded, "I don't know if I can grow big fruit trees. After all, big fruit trees won't bloom and bear fruit for three to five years."

Even if it is a grafted seedling, you will have to wait at least one or two years.

But strawberries are different.

If you plant them now, you might be able to eat strawberries during the Chinese New Year!
