Pastoral Daily Life

After Yan Yue and Wang Chaoliang negotiated, Zheng Xinhe arrived in Fengcheng the next morning.

Emotions made him unable to calm down at all.

As the most famous bamboo research expert in China, Zheng Xinhe dedicates half of his life to bamboo research. As a child, Zheng Xinhe was born in a small remote village in Shuchuan. Behind the village is a mixed forest of bamboo and other tree species. At that time, the villagers were willing to go to the woods to cut a few bamboos when they built a fence at home and put up a pigsty. Zheng Xinhe thought it was strange. Why didn't everyone chop down trees but bamboo? The people in the village can't say any big truths, they just act on the basis of experience. The family told Zheng Xinhe that it would take more than ten years to grow such a tall tree after cutting down a tree, but it would only take a few months for a bamboo to grow to the same height. Anyway, both trees and bamboo can be used, and it is cheaper to chop bamboo.

Zheng Xinhe became interested in bamboo since this incident. As the first college student in their village, he chose the Forestry University in Zhongjing and began to formally study bamboo. In recent years, Zheng Xinhe has made a lot of research results. The more he studies, the more he finds that bamboo is a treasure all over his body. Bamboo can play a role in eating, clothing, housing, transportation, and use. Especially in recent years, the ecological damage has been severe, and many forests have been cut down. At this time, bamboo forests with fast growth and strong reproduction have become the best choice to replace forests, consolidate soil and water, and absorb carbon dioxide. There is a growing awareness of the practicality of bamboo, but that's not enough, Zheng Xinhe has bigger ambitions.

He moved his gaze to the document in his hand and squeezed it tightly. He had a faint hunch that this document might fulfill his hope and completely change the industrial structure of the entire Chinese country.

With this fiery idea in mind, Zheng Xinhe met Lu Lingxi. He already knew from Wang Chaoliang that Lu Lingxi was young, but he never imagined that the other party would be so young, and even looked like a minor. Before Zheng Xinhe could put away the surprise on his face, Wang Chaoliang smiled and helped them introduce, "Xiaoxi, this is the friend I told you, you can just call him Uncle Zheng."

"Uncle Zheng." Lu Lingxi was very polite.

The Zheng Xinhe in front of him is in his early fifties, he is not tall, and his body is a little fat. Got a Mediterranean hairstyle.

Hearing Lu Lingxi's voice, Zheng Xinhe came back to his senses, he suppressed the surprise on his face, and laughed at himself, "After seeing Xiaoxi, I knew I was really old. "Although it was the first time they met, Zheng Xinhe naturally followed Wang Chaoliang and called out the word "Xiaoxi" to shorten the distance between the two sides.

His attitude is kind and funny, Lu Lingxi has a good impression of him, Wang Chaoliang introduced Yan Yue next to Lu Lingxi, Zheng Xinhe cheered up, and knew that Yan Yue was better than Lu Lingxi, who had little social experience. The one who is difficult to deal with.

After a simple greeting, several people quickly chatted with bamboo. Lu Lingxi knows a lot about flowers and plants, but when it comes to bamboo, it can't be said that he doesn't know everything, that is, he knows a general idea. Zheng Xinhe saw that Lu Lingxi was interested in this topic and took the initiative to talk about it. He is an expert in this field, and he is very knowledgeable when it comes to bamboo. From the delicious bamboo shoots to the bamboo paper making, and the bamboo bicycles that have recently emerged in foreign countries, Zero Zero Group finally got to the point. He hopes to use the characteristics of bamboo to make it a new type of industrial material to replace the existence of steel.

Speaking of this, Zheng Xinhe was afraid that Lu Lingxi and Yan Yue would not believe it, so he specifically mentioned a technology that has matured now. The density is increased by a hundred times, making its strength meet the performance standards of building materials.

The inventor of this technology is Zheng Xinhe, he said with a hint of excitement: "I have been seeking to improve this technology, but due to the limitation of raw materials, the effect of improvement is not obvious. Now that you have found this bamboo, Konishi, this technology will soon be able to be applied to practice."

Lu Lingxi was infected by his tone, and his emotions were also mobilized. He believes that Zheng Xinhe's enthusiasm for talking about all this is not a fake, but he does it from the bottom of his heart as his career.

Zheng Xinhe saw that Lu Lingxi listened carefully, and was even more happy, and continued to speak excitedly, "I hope that bamboo not only replaces steel bars for construction, but also many other aspects. Of course, in a short period of time We may not be able to replace all steel with bamboo, but as long as we are willing to take the first step and change people's usage habits little by little, we will eventually change the industrial pattern of the entire country in the long run."

At this time, Zheng Xinhe didn't look like he had just appeared in front of them and was calm, with a frenzy all over him. Lu Lingxi saw the shadow of Wang Chaoliang on him, Wang Chaoliang shook his head with a wry smile, "Occupational disease, no way."

Because of Zheng Xinhe's frankness, they quickly became acquainted. After personally going to the flower garden with Lu Lingxi to see the bamboo, Zheng Xinhe officially mentioned the cooperation with Lu Lingxi. He hopes that Lu Lingxi can provide raw materials, and he provides technology to jointly develop a new material that he named Zhugang.

"How?"

Zheng Xinhe said and looked at Yan Yue, it was about cooperation and negotiation, Lu Lingxi didn't intervene and left it all to Yan Yue. Yan Yue did not reply immediately, but pondered for a moment and asked Zheng Xinhe whether he had found a suitable investor.

Zheng Xinhe laughed, "I have been researching in this industry for a long time, and I know a few people. Mr. Yan can rest assured about investment."

He thought that Yan Yue was worried that he could not find a suitable investment company, and he was very confident about it. Unexpectedly, Yan Yue shook his head, "I don't mean that, but I hope we invest ourselves."

"What?"

Zheng Xinhe was stunned for a while, then looked at Wang Chaoliang subconsciously, and consulted the economic situation of Micro Gardening with his eyes.

Yan Yue guessed his concerns and smiled lightly, "If Director Zheng is worried about funds, you can rest assured."

Zheng Xinhe took a deep look at Yan Yue, "This investment is not a small amount."

"I know." Yan Yue said lightly: "In fact, the Fengcheng government now has a technology support project, I think we are very suitable, with the background of the government, Zhu Gang's Promotion will also be smoother.”

Hearing that Yan Yue could get in touch with the government, Zheng Xinhe agreed with Yan Yue's proposal with only a little consideration. If they can really cooperate with the government, they can also save a lot of trouble.

The matter was settled after the two negotiated. The cooperation with the government came from Yan Yue, and Lu Lingxi began to breed the evolution of Nanzhu. For this, Zheng Xinhe is more concerned than Lu Lingxi.

In general, the propagation of bamboo is mainly based on traditional asexual reproduction such as burying the whip, stalk, and knot, but Lu Lingxi has only one bamboo that has evolved. Don't know when. It happened that there was an expert, Zheng Xinhe, beside him, so Lu Lingxi deliberately vacated the laboratory at the Qiutian Garden for bamboo tissue culture. According to Zheng Xinhe, through group cultivation of seedlings, one bud can multiply at least 10,000 seedlings a year. This propagation method has fast speed, high multiplication coefficient and good quality, and can obtain a large number of plants that are completely consistent with the parental excellent plants in a short period of time for the construction of artificial bamboo forests.

After cultivating seedlings, Zheng Xinhe asked Lu Lingxi where he planned to build the bamboo forest. What he means is that the origin of Nanzhu is mostly in the area of ​​Shuchuan. Although Lu Lingxi discovered that it is a mutant Nanzhu, the growth environment will not be too different. It is better that they also build the bamboo forest in Shuchuan, but Lu Lingxi is reluctant. Leaving Fengcheng, I want to build a bamboo forest directly in the suburbs of Fengcheng. When he said this, Zheng Xinhe directly felt that he was fooling around.

“Nanzhu has higher soil requirements than ordinary tree species. It needs both abundant water and humidity conditions and is not resistant to flooding. How can Fengcheng be suitable for cultivating bamboo forests?”

"The bamboos transplanted in the flowerbed are growing very well now. The soil in Fengcheng may not be unsuitable for the growth of Nanzhu." Lu Lingxi said seriously. He knew that Zheng Xinhe was a bamboo expert, but he was very confident in the purified soil. Besides, if the bamboo forest was really built on the side of Shuchuan, it would be too far away from Fengcheng and many things would be inconvenient.

Because of Lu Lingxi's insistence, Zheng Xinhe had to follow him to the suburbs of Fengcheng several times, and personally measured the nearby soil composition to determine that these soils were suitable for the growth of Nanzhu. The measurement results surprised Zheng Xinhe, not only because these soils are suitable for the growth of Nanzhu, but also because these soils are rare and have no pollution, unlike other soils he has seen that have too many heavy metals and chemicals deposited in them.

"Near here..." Zheng Xinhe looked around suspiciously. In his heart, Fengcheng has always been a heavily polluted area. How can there be such a clean soil? He was puzzled by this phenomenon, and looked at Lu Lingxi hesitantly for several times, but when he thought about Lu Lingxi's age, he didn't think Lu Lingxi would know about this, so he suppressed his doubts and said nothing.

"Can Uncle Zheng be okay?" Lu Lingxi couldn't help asking when Zheng Xinhe stared at the soil composition test results for a long time.

Zheng Xinhe nodded in confusion.

After confirming that the nearby soil is suitable, Lu Lingxi and Yan Yue went back to Lingshui Village. The two looked at the two hills north of Lingshui Village. Because the bamboo forest is to be built, the valleys, foothills, and mountainsides can be grown, and there is no need to occupy the farmland in the village. And compared to the fields used for farming, the contract price of hilltops is cheaper. Lu Lingxi has already seen that these two hills are included in the purification range of the willow ecological community, and they are just used for planting bamboo forests.

When he and Uncle Li said this, Uncle Li was immediately worried. "It's good for Xiaoxi to want to grow bamboo, but can we plant it here? Don't lose money if you can't grow it."

"You can plant." Lu Lingxi affirmed, "I've seen it all."

Uncle Li breathed a sigh of relief and took the two to find the village head Li Dalei. When Li Dalei heard that they were going to contract the hilltops to plant bamboo, he was stunned for a long time. The first sentence of his reaction was, "Can we plant this? We can't lose money." After getting along for more than half a year, Li Dalei regarded Yan Yue and Lu Lingxi as villagers. own people. His first thought was not that the two of them contracted the mountain to generate income for the village, but what if they lost money?

Yan Yue knew that Li Dalei was well-intentioned, and took the initiative to explain: "It's okay, I have invited experts from Zhongjing to see it. Bamboo can be grown in the nearby land."

Li Dalei immediately felt relieved when he heard that it was seen by an expert. This is how the villagers are, blindly superstitious about the experts in Zhongjing.

After the two completed the formalities, they supported Uncle Li to find some honest and kind people in the village. The maintenance and care of the bamboo forest requires manpower, and a few of them are definitely not enough.

"Okay, leave this to me."

Uncle Li agreed. Micro-gardening pays a lot of money, and many people in the village want to come. It is not difficult to recruit people.
