Chapter 288 Do You Want to Take the College Entrance Examination?
There are many kinds of plant culture solutions, but to achieve the goal of increasing yield, only one kind is not enough.
The effect can only be achieved by using plant growth promoting liquid and growth liquid together.
Growth-promoting liquid can make plants grow more vigorously, and the growth liquid provides all the substances needed for plant growth.
Growth medium is the basis for plant cultivation. According to your different needs, you can buy culture medium with other functions and effects in StarCraft.
If you want to extend the flowering period, or make the flowers bloom more beautifully, or want to suppress the size of the plants and make tall plants miniature, you can use plant culture solution to achieve this.
There are thousands of kinds of culture fluids in the interstellar world, some are good, some are bad, some are effective, some are not, there are all kinds of them.
However, the production standards for culture medium used in agriculture have always been higher than those for commercial culture medium sold for personal plant growth.
Ye Mu had previously given Shen Yanzhi the list of materials and equipment needed. Shen Yanzhi stayed by her side all day, probably keeping others busy.
Many interstellar culture media use materials from other planets that are not available on the Azure Star.
However, this does not hinder the research and development of the culture medium on the planet Azure Star. The culture medium sold on each planet is different. After all, they are in different galaxies and the planetary environments are also different.
Some culture media are of little use when transferred from one planet to another.
There are geographical restrictions.
Although the Azure Star in the interstellar world also has many materials that are not available in the current era, Ye Mu read the agricultural-related research materials given by Chen Yanzhi along the way, and also specially listed some books in this field for Chen Yanzhi to find.
Therefore, it is not a big deal for Ye Mu to develop plant culture medium based on the current research materials on Azure Star.
Chen Yanzhi hadn't asked whether the equipment was ready yet, and Ye Mu didn't urge him. She just drew the experimental diagram on paper, wrote down the data after some calculations in her mind, and waited for Chen Yanzhi to finish it, then she went directly to do the experiment to verify the data and various materials she wrote.
Lin Dan and Ye Wansheng came back a little late today. Mo Mo had prepared dinner according to the previous schedule but had not waited for them to come back yet, so he asked Ye Mu to eat first.
Ye Mu was halfway through his meal when Lin Dan and Ye Wansheng came back.
Ye Wansheng was wearing a suit and tie.
Nowadays, many businessmen wear formal attire like this, and few wear Zhongshan suits like Ye Mu did when he first arrived in this era.
Ye Mu recalled how Song Yanzhou looked when he wore a Zhongshan suit. He always looked very handsome.
As soon as Ye Wansheng entered the house, he loosened his tie. He was a little uncomfortable. Seeing Ye Mu eating, Ye Wansheng took off his black suit jacket, put it aside, washed his hands, served the meal, sat down next to Ye Mu, raised his hand and rubbed Ye Mu's head and said:
“Guess what our sales were today?”
Lin Dan was far behind Ye Wansheng and just reached the door at this time. Just as Ye Mu was about to speak, he heard Lin Dan calling Mo Mo.
Mo Mo was serving the soup cooked in the kitchen and placing it on the table. When he heard Lin Dan calling him, he replied:
"Brother Lin, welcome home."
Lin Dan had a suit jacket on his wrist and his tie had been loosened. He walked in and rubbed Mo Mo's head first, then said:
"Oh, when will you give Momo a softer head? It hurts to touch it."
Ye Mu: “…”
Ye Wansheng: “…”
The two looked at him like an idiot and then ignored him.
Lin Dan sat down at the table and called Mo Mo again: "Come, come, come and sit down."
Ye Mu and Ye Wansheng have gotten used to it. Ever since he knew that Mo Mo was a robot, Lin Dan would always call Mo Mo to sit next to him every time they eat, and would ask Mo Mo to pick up food for him like a big boss.
Looking at Lin Dan's spirited smile, Ye Mu turned her head and met Ye Wansheng's gentle eyes again. She pondered for a moment and said:
“Sold out?”
I knew that the factory only produced a batch of old-style bicycles and a batch of those she designed.
The two of them are so happy today, it must not be a small business.
Lin Dan nodded immediately and said, "You guessed it right. She is indeed my and Ye Wansheng's younger sister."
"Now the workers' wages have been paid, but we can't pay for the purchase of the machine yet. But don't worry, we don't have to worry about the future. The bicycle you designed is very popular. There are also foreign businessmen negotiating orders with us."
"We signed two orders this time, one from a foreign businessman, and the other from a company that is doing quite a big business in Province S."
Lin Dan talked about a lot of work matters, so Ye Wansheng stopped talking about them. He just picked some food for Ye Mu and asked her to eat more. After Lin Dan finished speaking, he asked about Ye Mu's work.
"Everything is going well here. By the way, the agricultural machinery I mentioned before has been developed. Are you interested? If so, I will take you to the research institute tomorrow. The research and development costs are paid by the state, so the technology and agricultural machinery are all registered in the agricultural research institute here. You can go and discuss business with the dean. I believe that Dean Liang will be very happy if someone gives him money."
"Ye Wansheng lowered his eyes and pondered for a while. Lin Dan was also quiet for a while. As for what the two were thinking, Ye Mu couldn't tell, but he could guess that they might not have the energy to take over the agricultural machinery business now.
As for the culture medium, there is no rush for it now. She needs to experiment on it herself first to confirm the situation before considering selling it.
By then, these culture media will naturally be registered with the research institute. If they participate in the agricultural machinery business this time, it will be more convenient for them to continue to cooperate with the research institute in the future.
Ye Wansheng and Lin Dan had obviously also considered this aspect. After exploring the business world for a few months, both of them had gained some experience.
What Ye Mu said was an opportunity. Although not many people buy agricultural machinery at present, as the national economy improves, more and more people will buy this.
There are many people farming in the country.
“Let’s put it this way.” Ye Wansheng suddenly spoke, looking at Ye Mu, and said, “Brother and Lin Dan really don’t have the ability to take up the opportunity given by Mu Mu right now, but I have a plan…”
Lin Dan held his chin and looked at Ye Wansheng, occasionally lowering his head to take a bite of food while listening to Ye Wansheng's plan. After listening, his eyes flashed and seemed to be brighter.
The main idea is to use Ye Mu's current business opportunity to make a deal with the big companies in Province S, so that the small company that he and Ye Wansheng have just opened can be helped by these big companies and quickly improve.
This method is indeed good, Lin Dan said happily:
"We both think the same thing. I think so too. If Ye Wansheng and I really go to the institute to sign a business, and we two outsiders open a factory and company here, many outsiders have already left Province S. There must be someone behind this."
"It would be too conspicuous for us to establish a relationship with the institute. We might as well use this opportunity to find a backer first."
“It’s just…” Lin Dan looked at Ye Mu with some guilt, stretched out his hand to rub Ye Mu’s hair and said, “Sister Mu Mu worked so hard to bring us this opportunity, but we can only give it up like this.”
Ye Wansheng also felt a little sorry for Ye Mu, and nodded and said, "If you have other friends and want them to do this, just ask them to do it. You don't have to focus on us just because of us."
"No." Ye Mu shook his head and looked at the two of them and said, "Only you."
She doesn't have the time to get to know any businessmen. She is busy with research. She doesn't need to collect materials herself, so there is no need for her to get to know any businessmen.
Moreover, in this era, the government office controls many materials, and knowing businessmen is not of much use, unlike in StarCraft.
"I think your plan is feasible, but you have to choose the right people to avoid your partners going back on their word. They get benefits from you and then say one thing and do another."
Ye Wansheng and Lin Dan looked at each other, and Ye Wansheng asked, "Who do you think is feasible?"
"I don't think the one from the Huo family will work. I don't quite see that guy well enough. We might end up in his hands." Lin Dan filtered through his mind the famous companies and businessmen he had met and known in the past few months who had established themselves in Province S and were able to give them a hand.
Ye Wansheng pursed his lips and said, "Although our factory has accepted his order, I feel that Huo Qiu is a bit hypocritical."
He didn't think much of this person, but the Huo family seemed to be quite powerful in S Province. When they were selling bicycles these days, they also came into contact with Huo Qiu.
That’s how I received the order from Huo Qiu Company.
The two of them were thinking about it, and Ye Mu was eating there, listening to their discussion.
When they mentioned a foreign businessman, Ye Mu said, "Judging from the current attitude of the domestic government affairs office, the institute will not cooperate with foreign businessmen."
Especially the technology she provided, on the one hand, there is a suspicion that it would expose her and put her in danger, and on the other hand, cooperative production and sales would definitely involve technology and a lot of knowledge, which the research institute certainly could not provide for production.
The research institute naturally provides technology. The technology for agricultural machinery is fine, but the technology for plant culture fluid has a lot of room for operation. Therefore, if it is only provided to the country's government departments, it can bring many benefits to the country.
If we follow the interstellar concept, Ye Mu would naturally choose the one with the highest bid, or the people from the planet or other organization would be able to convince her to agree to cooperate with them.
But in this era, the Azure Star has not yet been unified, so Ye Mu naturally has to consider his position.
"Foreign businessmen won't work." Lin Dan leaned back in his chair, crossed his legs, and tugged at his shirt collar a bit irritably. It was certainly impossible for the two of them to figure out the situation in S Province in just a few months.
We are still feeling our way forward, so we can't decide who to contact for this discussion.
Also, there are some people they have not met, but have only heard about, so they cannot make a judgment based on this.
His tie had already been loosened when he came back, and now it was being pulled at the collar. He simply pulled the loose tie off his neck and draped it over the back of the chair.
Several buttons of his shirt were unbuttoned. He did not do farm work in S Province. Although he was doing business outside, he had become a little grayer. At home, he did not have to do the same thing as outside. Lin Dan did not hide the irritation on his face. He frowned and held the chopsticks but did not continue eating.
His bowl was already filled with dishes piled high by Momo.
Seeing that Ye Mu was about to finish his meal, Mo Mo got down from the chair beside him, went to get a soup bowl to serve soup to Ye Mu, then turned around and asked Ye Wansheng:
"Brother Ye, do you want some soup?"
Ye Wansheng was lost in thought, trying to figure out who could be used based on the information he had learned. When he heard Mo Mo's words, he subconsciously looked over and shook his head, "No."
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned his head and saw that Lin Dan had to unbutton one more button of his shirt to expose his breasts.
He said speechlessly: "Can you put on your clothes?"
In front of his business partners, Lin Dan still acted like a leader, but now his true colors are revealed.
After all, he is just a boy of the same age as Ye Mu.
When she is reliable, she is more reliable than he expected, but when she is unreliable, she seems less mature than Mumu.
"Ah?" Lin Dan was stunned, a little dazed at first, then he reacted and looked at Ye Mu guiltily. Coincidentally, his eyes met Ye Mu's. He was suddenly startled and quickly buttoned up his shirt.
Then he put on his suit jacket and went back to the table to eat.
Ye Mu: “…”
"I've seen a lot in the military camp." Ye Mu said lightly.
Ye Wansheng and Lin Dan were both silent. Lin Dan even choked. He quickly picked up the soup that Mo Mo had just served to Ye Mu and drank it in one breath before he felt better.
Ye Mu: “…”
She was just about to drink it.
"Wait a minute, Mumu. I'll pour you another bowl."
As he spoke, he stood up and fetched a bowl, then sighed, "Song Yanzhou has corrupted you in the military camp. How can a girl say such things so casually?"
The two were originally thinking about who would be a better partner for this business, but after this incident, the question immediately turned to Ye Mu. Ye Wansheng advised:
"It's okay to say it in front of us, but don't say it outside."
It will always give people a handle to attack.
Although he also felt that his words might have been made too sensitive by his past years.
The foreigners we meet sometimes speak more openly, but because they are foreigners, people in China can only sigh about how foreigners are.
Ye Mu nodded as he drank the soup that Lin Dan poured, then asked, "So what are your plans? Have you thought of a suitable person?"
"Don't worry. This technology research institute will not rush to cooperate with other businessmen. Strictly speaking, I have full control over it."
Lin Dan was secretly shocked. Although he knew that Ye Mu was powerful, he was still shocked when he heard Ye Mu's words.
It is hard to imagine how powerful Ye Mu is. Then he thought that they were both 19 years old this year, but compared with Ye Mu, there was a huge gap between them.
He looked at Ye Wansheng again. When he arrived in S Province and negotiated business with foreign businessmen, it was Ye Wansheng who did the talking.
In terms of knowledge, he is not as good as Ye Wansheng. Ye Wansheng also learned foreign languages with his parents and can communicate normally with those foreign businessmen.
It was a little awkward at first, but now I have become visibly proficient.
Lin Dan could only listen to Ye Wansheng's translation and felt deeply the gap in knowledge.
From this perspective, his advantage is that he has experience in this area and he brought people with him.
Fortunately, he is not useless. Although Ye Wansheng is smart, he is not cunning enough.
"Let me discuss this with Lin Dan. Since you are in full control, it should be okay to do it a little later, right?"
Ye Mu nodded: "Okay. Then I'll go back to my room first."
After Ye Mu left, Lin Dan quickly took off his coat and returned to his previous state. He lowered his head and took two mouthfuls of rice, then stopped and kicked Ye Wansheng on the calf.
Ye Wansheng was startled, and his hand holding the chopsticks trembled. He looked at Lin Dan, but he was not angry. He just asked, "What's the matter?"
This is Lin Dan’s old trick, but it’s a bit sudden.
Lin Dan leaned back in his chair, crossed one leg over the other, and discussed with Ye Wansheng:
"Teach me a foreign language? Or teach me something you learned?"
"I would have taught you even if you didn't tell me." Ye Wansheng was silent for a moment, put down his chopsticks, sat upright and looked at Lin Dan.
Lin Dan was stunned for a moment, feeling something was wrong. Looking at his serious expression, he asked, "What are you doing?"
It looked like he was going to part ways with him after teaching him a foreign language.
He put away his previous relaxation at this moment, placed the chopsticks in his hand on the bowl, and after a crisp knocking sound, his dark eyes stared at Ye Wansheng in silence.
Ye Wansheng considered his words before speaking:
"Lin Dan, don't you want to take the college entrance examination?"
Lin Dan breathed a sigh of relief and said indifferently: "No, let's eat, then we will select a few companies and observe them, and then test their attitudes."
"Just let my brother and sister take the college entrance examination. Why should I take the exam? As long as I have money, that's all."
Ye Wansheng added: "If you want to take the college entrance examination, Mumu and I can help you with your knowledge. You can leave the factory and company matters to me first."
"If you don't believe me, you should at least believe Twilight, right?"
At his age, he is just at the stage of studying. Ye Wansheng has been thinking about this matter for a long time.
But at that time he was not very confident alone. Now with Ye Mu, Lin Dan already had some foundation, so he thought it was feasible, so he proposed it.
Lin Dan glanced at Ye Wansheng and said, "I will take the college entrance examination. Even after I graduate from college, I still have to find a job and make money. I'm not going to do research like Ye Mu."
"As for the fact that you think it's good to learn more, I'll just follow you in the future. You can still make money without going to school now. Ye Wansheng, you value the college entrance examination so much, why don't you take one this year? If you pass, I'll pay for your tuition."
"Without me, you are the only one in charge of the company and the factory. It would be strange if you were not tricked by those people. We were definitely tricked before. Nine out of ten times, it was the people who bought our production line..."
Ye Wansheng: “…”
Perhaps influenced by his parents, he really attaches great importance to the college entrance examination.
When he learned that the college entrance examination was resumed, he did have such an idea for a moment, but after analyzing the current situation, he quickly chose another path.
"Never mind. You're right."
"Why do you suddenly mention this again?" Lin Dan was puzzled. He and Ye Wansheng had discussed this before.
Ye Wansheng said: "I heard you take the initiative to mention that you want to learn a foreign language, so I thought of it again. Of course, this is better taught in school."
Then he talked about what happened just now: "What do you think of Pei Yu as a partner? I met him when I went to the neighboring province before..."
