Jinjiang genuine 39
Just as Director Peng of the Forestry Bureau expected, after receiving the news that Huajianji's application was approved by the Guinness World Records, applications to introduce Victoria amazonica or conduct scientific research directly piled up on the desks of provincial leaders and directors.
Perhaps to the general public, this is just a slightly surprising news; but for these researchers, it represents the top achievement in plant research.
This shows that my country's technology in cultivating Victoria regia has surpassed that of foreign countries, and even surpassed the new variety of Victoria regia discovered in Bolivia two years ago, which has unparalleled significance!
At the beginning, the X City Botanical Garden caused a sensation for cultivating a Victoria regia with a leaf diameter of 2.90 meters, and the Victoria regia was regarded as the treasure of the garden. Now, the Victoria regia cultivated by Huajianji has a leaf diameter of up to 3.35 meters (at the time of application), breaking all domestic and foreign records in one fell swoop and obtaining Guinness record certification, which is far more amazing than that time!
The Victoria amazonica cultivated in my country actually broke the record of its place of origin.
What exciting news this is! I believe Brazilians and countries surrounding the Amazon River basin will be shocked by this and try their best to catch up.
Just like in the host city of the Olympic Games, the host country’s most distinctive events are won by others with gold medals and records broken.
When Dr. Hou saw the certification certificate posted on Huajianji’s official website, tears welled up in his eyes.
China began to introduce Victoria amazonica in the 1960s, and now has a cultivation history of more than 50 years. After countless improvements and cultivations, and more than ten years of competition with its place of origin, we finally have a perfect answer today.
When the record is announced on the Guinness official website, everyone will know that this is a unique Victoria regia cultivated in our country and in the Huajianji Botanical Garden!
And it is the common Cruz Victoria species, not a new variety.
It is of great significance in scientific research and introduction and cultivation.
Feng Yongkang, a national botanist and professor at the Forestry University of City B, and Ying Bojun, director of the National Botanical Garden Research Institute, jointly crowned this Victoria amazonica as the "Crown of Victoria amazonica Cruz", making Huajianji famous in the industry.
At the same time, after obtaining the Guinness certification, Ye Han received a bonus from the W City Government.
The bonus is just a superficial representation, it also represents a kind of honor and represents the rising status of Huajianji Botanical Garden in the local area.
Major media outlets, television stations and other official media also heard the news and pushed related news.
The city television station also wanted to do an exclusive interview with Ye Han and called to inquire enthusiastically.
In fact, since the opening of the park, with the increasing popularity of Huajianji, coupled with Ye Han's mysterious identity and high appearance, some traffic media and anchors want to cooperate with her to earn a wave of traffic.
But they were all rejected by Ye Han.
But Ye Han thought that what the official media said was a good choice.
Wang Yun also agreed with this.
We may have cooperation with these government departments in the future, and it would be best if we can establish good relationships with them.
Huajianji is located in a relatively remote area, and most out-of-town tourists come here for a day trip or during holidays.
Most of the people who buy tickets again are locals and people from surrounding cities, including those who apply for annual passes, and more than 70% of them are locals.
Therefore, whether it is a TV station or a local public account, they can grasp the customer base more accurately and achieve the best publicity effect.
For example, the public account 'W City Local Treasure' is the most influential public account in the city, and it is backed by the official government.
It is mainly responsible for pushing new policy information, promoting W City’s new honors, settlement policies, scenic spot reservations, etc. It has millions of followers in W City, and the effect it brings is far more effective than those traffic media.
After some communication, the TV station's exclusive interview was scheduled for 5 pm on Monday, and Ye Han specifically notified the park of closing half an hour in advance.
Monday is always the busiest time for working people. By around 5 p.m., most tourists have dispersed.
Ju Yue, a reporter from the city TV station, and her colleagues arrived at Huajianji in advance as interviewees.
As the face of the city TV station, Ju Yue graduated from the Department of Journalism with beautiful features and outstanding temperament. After graduation, she fought hard to successfully enter the city TV station and often appeared on camera in interviews.
However, after meeting Ye Han today, she discovered that the director was taller than her and had an excellent temperament. She was wearing a light-colored sweater and a slim skirt. When she walked out from the green trees and flowers, she was as beautiful as a painting.
Even she, a girl, couldn't help but look at it several times.
The male colleague next to him was even more stunned, but he quickly came back to his senses and adjusted the equipment, trying to maintain his professionalism.
The two first focused on photographing the plants in the garden, especially the Victoria amazonica, and then took photos of the "Guinness Official Certificate" mailed from the UK before starting the interview.
Kikuyue: "Director Ye, why did you choose to take over this botanical garden? I heard it was abandoned for a long time."
Ye Han smiled: "On the one hand, it's a coincidence, and on the other hand, it's because of my passion."
Kikutsuki: "What was the situation like before you took over? Did you encounter any difficulties?"
Ye Han: "There are many. For example, the artificial lake you see now is as clear as a mirror, but when we first took it over, it was polluted. Algae grew in large numbers due to eutrophication, and it took more than two months just to clean it up.
Including the record-breaking Victoria amazonica, half a year ago its leaves were curled up pitifully underwater, the edges of the leaves were yellowing, and it was impossible to stretch in the polluted water. It looked smaller than the shell of a durian. "
Juyue thought to herself: This director is really good at directing the topic. Just when she was about to lead the topic to Wang Lian, the other party had already prepared for it before her. How impressive.
She showed a hint of surprise at the right moment: "I can't imagine such a contrast. Now it is completely different from the past. It is the 'Cruz Royal Water Lily Crown' that broke the Guinness World Record and attracted widespread attention from the public."
Kikuyue: "So, this Victoria amazonica was actually here last year?"
Ye Han nodded: "Yes, Victoria amazonica is an annual or perennial large floating-leaf herb that is sensitive to water and temperature. When the water becomes clear and the temperature rises, it begins to develop rapidly and gradually grows into its current appearance."
Juyue: "How long has it taken for Victoria regia to grow from its growth stage to now?"
Ye Han thought for a moment and said, "About two months."
This time, Kikutsuki's tone was truly amazed: "It only took two months for it to grow from the size of a durian shell to a 3.35-meter behemoth? Its growth rate is truly amazing."
And there is not just one leaf, but all the leaves grow together, connected by rhizomes underwater, forming a terrifying behemoth.
Ye Han: "This is related to its origin and habits. Victoria amazonica is native to the Amazon River Basin in South America, where there are many kinds of aquatic plants. Victoria amazonica must grow as quickly as possible to occupy its own waters, otherwise it is likely to be squeezed out of its living space and unable to survive."
Kikutsuki sighed: "In fact, the survival of plants is just like the law of the jungle in the animal world. They must obey the laws of nature."
Ye Han nodded: "Yes. In addition to Victoria amazonica, other plants will also retain the habits of their origin, such as Epiphyllum.
The reason why ephemeral flowers bloom is to avoid being overwhelmed by the sun and prevent a large amount of water loss, so that they can better adapt to the original ecological environment of the desert. "
Juyue couldn't help but look at Ye Han again.
My God, this principal is really good at starting a conversation.
The other party always achieves the goal inadvertently without making people feel abrupt. At the same time, they also provide popular science information about related plants, which makes people not feel boring at all.
The ratings for this episode were good.
If the other party wasn't the director of Huajianji, she really wanted to recruit her to work at the TV station.
The interview lasted for more than half an hour with questions and answers.
The whole process was very smooth with almost no lags, and Kikuyue felt that this was the easiest interview she had ever had.
At that time, we only need to do some post-production editing and it is expected to be broadcast in two days.
The official public account followed suit and pushed the news out together with the TV station. For a time, many local people in W City were familiar with the name of Huajianji.
This has greatly increased the reputation of Huajianji Botanical Garden in the local area.
It’s not just about popularity, it also represents an improvement in status.
It's like the difference between a 'traffic influencer' and an official spokesperson for a big brand. The former may be popular, but the latter has a higher style and status.
After Huajian became a hot topic, many haters said that it was a private botanical garden, and their words implied that it was "not worthy of being exhibited in a formal venue".
Nowadays, this group of people have also stopped their activities and dare not show up.
Didn’t you see the official statement?
In addition, Victoria regia is certified world-class and its status is no longer what it used to be.
The popularity of Huajianji and the national 3A/4A scenic spots is getting shorter and shorter. It has established a reputation in the Municipal Tourism Bureau, Forestry Bureau and other departments, which will facilitate future cooperation.
After official promotion, the sales of annual cards surged. Ye Han arranged to print 2,000 more physical cards. Together with the electronic cards applied for online, the sales are expected to exceed 10,000.
After the botanical garden in City N received the news, they offered their newly cultivated 'Angel Paphiopedilum' and 'Dream Paphiopedilum' in exchange for the introduction of Victoria amazonica.
Paphiopedilum is named because the petal lip at the bottom of the flower looks like a pocket. This shape is actually to attract insects to enter for pollination, so that the insects can make more circles in the "pocket" to increase the success rate of pollination.
At the same time, because the flower looks like the slippers of European medieval ladies, it is also called "slipper orchid" or "cinderella orchid". ①
Wild Paphiopedilum is extremely precious. Paphiopedilum (all genera) are national first or second class protected plants, with the majority being first class.
The new varieties of 'Angel Paphiopedilum' and 'Dream Paphiopedilum' cultivated in the N City Botanical Garden are hybrid varieties of national first-class protected plants, and their preciousness is naturally needless to say.
Ye Han very carefully placed six orchids (three of each species) wrapped in breathable and moisturizing film in the exhibition greenhouse, next to the comet orchids.
Paphiopedilum usually blooms in winter, mostly from December to January. The flowering period of Comet Orchid is similar. It is still in the cultivation stage and only the green leaves below can be seen.
There are many varieties of Phalaenopsis orchids, all of which can bloom when the temperature is suitable. Visitors can now enjoy lavender, light pink and pale white Phalaenopsis orchids.
Their flower stalks extend from the inside of the stump, with a bunch of butterfly-like flowers hanging from the top. They are delicate and elegant, bringing a touch of bright color to the brown-black stumps and winding vines below.
Even though they are not rare species, many tourists have taken photos of these "beautiful butterflies".
In the past two weeks, tropical plants transplanted from Fu Yunze's office have entered the exhibition greenhouse and been placed in the central area behind the rockery. Together with ferns and shrubs, they form a small tropical rain forest.
The dome here is the highest and the space is wider. When the traveler's palm, which is more than 5 meters tall, grows bigger and bigger, it will provide a wide enough environment for it.
Visitors here can not only see the ephemeral flowers, but also stroll in the tropical rainforest, look up to see the huge leaves of tropical plants, and experience a different tropical style.
As the renovation progresses, Yan Bin’s recruitment and training are also underway.
After several discussions, Ye Han planned to recruit 5 employees.
One cashier is in charge of putting labels on the counter, three are responsible for making tea drinks, one is responsible for serving snacks, and the last one is a mobile employee who will help wherever needed.
Yan Bin thought there was no problem as there were enough staff.
Due to rent and labor costs, three employees are already enough for a milk tea shop, and they work in shifts of two, so you can only see two people at ordinary times.
Some stores don’t have enough sales, so only one person is working in the store.
Just like him.
Moreover, the beverage shop in Huajianji is not like the milk tea shops outside, which are open until 10 pm; the beverage shop is not open at night and closes at 17:00, waiting until all the tourists have left until almost 18:00, which is the normal working hours.
There are 5 employees, and they can take turns to rest.
At least for him, the working hours were reduced by one third, but the salary was much higher than that of other stores.
This made Yan Bin full of energy and he couldn't wait to open the beverage shop.
Ye Han is busy customizing gift bags and other materials.
As a paper bag for beverages, there is no need to design it in an exaggerated way, so Wang Yun asked someone to design it in a very simple style.
The paper bag is white in color with a border on the outside. In the middle of the front is a light green circle with golden osmanthus flowers sprinkled inside. The three words "Huajianji" are in white with a brush font, which looks simple, elegant and a little fresh.
There is a QR code of the official account on the back of the paper bag for easy scanning.
However, because it is a paper bag and a thicker one, the cost will be higher.
The cost of a single cup is 0.3 yuan, and the cost of a double cup is 0.5 yuan; the price of the thermal insulation bag in winter is even higher, with the wholesale price being about 0.8 yuan each.
Ye Han customized the first batch of 30,000 paper bags and 10,000 thermal insulation bags, with a cost of more than 20,000 yuan.
The price is not low and it is a bit wasteful.
It would be a shame to throw away such a thick paper bag after using it only once.
It would be best if you could find a way to reuse it.
Ye Han has been thinking about this question: how to avoid waste.
Collect ten bags to exchange for a drink?
But she quickly dismissed the idea.
First, the number is difficult to count; second, if a tourist buys it, it will take ten purchases to reach the target.
If the difficulty is too high, the customer base will lose the patience to do this.
It would be better to...get some small cards with Huajianji characteristics to exchange.
Ye Han thought this method was good.
She was planning it in her mind and already had an idea in mind.
In early November, the store was finally renovated, and the overall style was changed to a wooden style, which is closer to nature.
At the same time, the extra succulent potted plants in the glass greenhouse are placed inside, matched with green plants such as green ivy and spider plants to purify the air and decorate the store.
The 46-square-meter space is very large. On the left is the workbench and ordering area, and an L-shaped booth is placed near the side as a waiting area. Six sets of bamboo tables and chairs are planned on the right side, which is the refreshment area.
Yan Bin and the store staff moved various equipment in and began cleaning and debugging to ensure normal use.
Other raw materials for making milk tea are also being purchased and prepared.
The prepared osmanthus honey is stored in jars in the refrigerator. The color is a beautiful amber, and you can see the rich osmanthus solidified inside.
An advance notice was given on the official account and video account that on November 6, the beverage area of Huajianji - "Half Day Leisure" officially opened.
"Luckily I have a VIP annual card, there are so many people queuing." Yao Bing looked at the people queuing at the gate and shook his head with a sigh.
Tan Shuangshuang: "There's nothing we can do. Today is Saturday. Office workers like us can only choose this time. It's normal that there are so many people."
Yao Bing and Tan Shuangshuang are both natives of W City and work in the same department. They often go shopping and eat together on weekends, and complain about their leaders and colleagues at the same time. They have a very good relationship.
As people who often pay attention to and watch short videos, they discovered Huajianji very early. Every weekend they come here together to relax, and they have been here no less than five or six times.
When they heard that Huajianji had launched an annual pass, they applied for VIP cards immediately. Given how frequently they come here, it is definitely worthwhile to apply for a VIP card.
And they really don’t think it’s expensive.
As two foodies, this is about the price of a high-end Japanese meal.
However, what Huajianji brings them is much more than satisfying their appetite, and they feel relaxed every time they return from here.
This place has become the best place for the two to relieve their negative emotions, and can be called a "healing sanctuary" for workers.
"I heard that a beverage store just opened a few days ago, so we can have a drink while strolling around."
The weather is getting colder, but hot milk tea is still comfortable.
The two of them swiped their cards to enter the park from a separate gate on the left. There were not many people here, and they were in in ten seconds.
Looking at the people still queuing on the right, the two felt that the VIP annual card was really worth it.
As soon as they entered the park, Yao Bing and his companions saw the newly opened beverage shop, not far from the entrance.
"Half Day Leisure." Yao Bing looked at the sign above. "Stealing a half day of leisure from the busy life, this name really fits the mood of this place."
The decoration style too.
Before she even entered, her favorability level was already maxed out.
As the two of them got closer, they smelled a strong sweet osmanthus fragrance. The osmanthus flowering season had passed, so the fragrance was emanating from here.
"What a fragrant and sweet smell." Yao Bing felt that she was surrounded by the sweet fragrance of osmanthus, and she didn't know if it was because it was baked, but it was far more attractive than the fragrance of osmanthus.
I really want to drink drinks made with osmanthus!
That's right, she must drink it today.
There were many tourists nearby who came here to smell the sweet-scented osmanthus. Before 9 o'clock, the entrance was already full of people.
There was a long queue inside and she could only vaguely see a few busy shop assistants. She didn't know if it was her illusion, but she seemed to see the afterimage of the shaker in one of the shop assistants' hands.
Yao Bing took out his mobile phone to scan the code to place an order, and the two of them huddled together intimately.
“Main product: Osmanthus series. Osmanthus Oolong (5-star recommendation), Osmanthus Dew (5-star recommendation), Osmanthus Black Tea (4-star recommendation), Osmanthus Milk Tea, Osmanthus Coconut Milk, Osmanthus Latte…”
Tan Shuangshuang: "I'll order this Osmanthus Oolong, a large cup."
Yao Bing was a little hesitant.
She usually likes to drink milk tea with a sweetness level of seven points, and is not interested in this kind of tea that seems to have no taste.
When I clicked on it, I found that there was no choice of sweetness. I guess it was not even three points.
Let’s take a look at the osmanthus juice. It is brewed from rice wine and has a very low alcohol content. But she has had the kind of rice wine dumplings and didn’t like the taste very much.
"I'll order this osmanthus milk tea, with a maximum of 50% sugar. Never mind, 50% is 50%."
A large cup of osmanthus oolong is 33 yuan, and a large cup of osmanthus milk tea is only 27 yuan.
At this price...I think cow's milk is more expensive.
Yao Bing paid the money and waited outside.
There is a screen at the door, through which you can see the scenes made by the store clerks inside, and they indeed use genuine materials.
The mangoes in the Yangzhi Ganlu are freshly cut, and the milk is fresh milk that costs more than ten yuan a bottle in the market. Yao Bing drinks that brand frequently and sometimes even thinks it is too expensive.
The waiter poured half a cup at once, which was really generous of him.
No wonder there are so many people queuing.
After waiting for about 20 minutes, their drinks were finally ready.
The clerk packed the food for the two of them separately and put it in two paper bags.
The paper bag is very beautiful, with the unique style of Huajianji. There are golden osmanthus flowers falling in the light green in the middle, which is quite artistic.
However, no matter how beautiful it is, the two of them will not take it home because it is too troublesome to carry it.
They took the drinks out of the paper bag, inserted the straws, and tasted the drinks they ordered in turn.
"Wow, it's delicious! Isn't this too delicious?"
Yao Bing was surprised. The first sip was filled with the fragrance of osmanthus, mixed with the pure smoothness of milk. It seemed that a little honey or something was added. It was not as sweet as ordinary milk tea, but had its own sweet fragrance, which made the throat feel nourished.
Yao Bing lifted up the drink cup and took a look. The transparent wall of the cup was full of milk.
There are indeed a lot of osmanthus flowers. You can see them stuck to the outer wall and piled at the bottom of the cup. They are golden and somewhat sticky when mixed with milk, like amber flowing in the snow-capped mountains.
But the amount is far less than cow's milk.
However, when you put it in your mouth, the sweet fragrance of osmanthus hits your nose, as if you had drunk half a cup of osmanthus.
It's very rich, tastes great, and makes me feel happy when I drink it.
The sweetness was just right, and she apologized for her ignorance before placing the order.
What do you mean by 70% sweet? 50% sweet is YYDS.
"How's yours? Mine is delicious. I'll have to buy another one when I leave."
Yao Bing took a few more puffs while talking, and before he knew it, half of the drink was almost gone. Then he realized that his colleague Tan Shuangshuang hadn't said anything.
Yao Bing:?
Is it not tasty?
However, when she saw that the other person's cup was less than one-third empty, she fell silent.
Note ①: The introduction about Paphiopedilum comes from the Internet.
