Chapter 55 It's You
After the discussion, Qiao Xi went to lead the big-tailed yak, and Luman put away his equipment for setting up a street stall.
Josh was going to take a look at his flower garden. Mr. Blair had said before that he was a famous botanist, so it was a good opportunity for him to go and see it.
Mr. Luman was riding on a not-so-tall Resha horse, waiting for Josh at the intersection.
After seeing the huge and elegant big-tailed yak with a completely white body, he uttered a short exclamation.
“No matter how many times I see this noble big-tailed yak, I am still overwhelmed by its beauty.”
"I don't know when my Fiery Horned Bull can grow into a real high-level magical beast." He was a little desperate. The current situation alone was giving him a headache.
Josh didn't say anything, but just listened with a faint smile. But to be honest, having the potential to be a high-level magical beast doesn't mean that you can become a high-level magical beast when you grow up.
Since he couldn't fully satisfy the needs of the Fiery-Horned Bull during its infancy, Josh felt that it was not very optimistic to train it into a high-level magical beast.
Listening to Mr. Luman's mumbling along the way, Qiao Xi was a little overwhelmed. She was really not a talkative person, and once she started a deep conversation, it would easily become awkward. She really didn't expect that Luman was a person who couldn't stop talking.
When he finally saw the garden with flowers climbing all over the fence, Josh breathed a sigh of relief and changed the subject: "Mr. Luman, this is your flower garden, it's so beautiful."
"Ah, yes, this is my garden. I'm not bragging. No one in the entire Chaoyang City has as many flowers in his flower garden as mine. All the wealth that I have accumulated in my life is gathered here." When he said this, Luman smiled proudly.
When the two men dismounted and Luman gently pushed open the garden fence to let Josh in, she truly realized the value of Mr. Luman's words.
Looking around, there were countless flowers, like gorgeous silk spread out all the way. The riot of colour and the blooming of hundreds of flowers were not enough to express Josh's shock.
This was definitely one of the most beautiful places she had ever seen in her life. Josh felt ashamed of her previous underestimation of Mr. Luman. She was like a country bumpkin coming to the city, staring at these beautiful flowers and even forgetting to breathe.
Luman waited calmly for Josh to come back to his senses. No one who entered his garden could breathe calmly, no matter if it was a man or a woman. This was his proudest achievement.
After a long time, Qiao Xi came back to his senses from the sea of flowers. "Mr. Luman, this is incredible. This is actually cultivated artificially. Your cultivation technology is simply like God. It's amazing."
"Haha, interest, interest is the best teacher. If there is a god, then interest is my guide." Luman laughed.
"So, Mr. Ruhman, which flowers do you think are suitable for my farm?" Josh did not forget the purpose of this trip and stared at the flowers.
"Come, take a look at this sweet clover. It can grow on roadside ridges and lakeside vacant lots. It will take root and you don't have to worry about planting it. Once planted, it will bloom every year and can also be used as forage for livestock." Luman squatted in front of a patch of flowers and introduced it to Qiao Xi.
"Ah!" It's no wonder that Qiao Xi was surprised. There were just too many beautiful flowers in this garden. The small flower that Luman introduced to her was pretty, but in comparison, it was really inconspicuous.
She did feel a little disappointed.
"Ms. Qiao Xi, it's not that I don't want to introduce these gorgeous flowers to you, but maybe you are not able to cultivate these gorgeous guys now." Luman was not surprised by Qiao Xi's reaction. Anyone who chose such ordinary little flowers in such a garden would feel lost.
"Yes, I know. Mr. Luman, please continue to introduce it to me." Qiao Xi smiled embarrassedly. She quickly discovered the problem and changed her mind.
She came here to look for nectar-producing flowers, but how could she be mesmerized by these gorgeous flowers? These were not something she could afford to keep or buy.
"Okay, although they are inconspicuous in the garden, they will be beautiful if you see these astragalus alone in the wild. They bloom in spring and summer. They are as vigorous as weeds, have many flowers and produce a lot of nectar. The brewed honey will have a small sleep-inducing effect." Mr. Luman picked a flower and handed it to Josh.
Josh looked at the small flower carefully. Its lavender petals and faint floral fragrance made it seem even cuter when viewed alone than before.
"You continue." Josh put down the petals in his hand and let them return to the earth.
Seeing Josh's smiling face that was no longer disappointed, Luman also breathed a sigh of relief. Although he brought Josh to the garden with the intention of showing off, if Josh was attracted by these enchanting and gorgeous flowers and really did what he wanted, he would have a headache.
He walked to a flower tree with a white waterfall flowing down it. "This is the second type I recommend, the Robinia pseudoacacia. You can see that its flowers are hanging all over the tree in clusters like wind chimes. In summer and autumn, it can meet the nectar needs of most bee colonies."
"You only need to plant a circle along the road to provide a source of nectar and add a beautiful landscape to your farm."
Similar to Sophora japonica flowers, Qiao Xi recognized this kind of flower. She had eaten steamed Sophora japonica flowers before. They were fragrant and sweet, but it seemed like something from her previous life.
This also means that she has a primitive love for this fine-leaved acacia, "I like this kind of flower, Mr. Luman."
He nodded proudly and said with a smile: "Haha, no one can resist the temptation of this sea of white flowers, I know it."
"These two kinds of flowers can meet most of the needs of the bee colony. The remaining vacancies will need to be filled by your orchard. The flowers of many fruit trees are also important sources of nectar! How about it, Miss Qiao Xi, are you interested in buying some more magic fruit seedlings from me?" A cunning smile appeared on Ruman's bearded face.
Josh laughed: "Mr. Luman, it seems that besides being an excellent botanist, you are also a great businessman. Your calculations are so accurate. I do need some fruit trees to expand my orchard." How come he calculated everything?
The area of the orchard is still relatively small and does need further development. I never had time to consider this before, but now that I have the opportunity, I might as well buy it all together.
"Haha, if I don't understand the needs of you reclusive farmers, who would I sell these plants to? There's no such thing as a business offer." Mr. Luman smiled, looking quite complacent.
"Then I've decided. The nectar-producing plants I'll choose are Astragalus membranaceus and Robinia pseudoacacia. Those are the only two. Now let's go take a look at the fruit trees." Qiao Xi thought about it and made the decision. If it's suitable, don't hesitate. Quick decisions are the best way to go.
Today is another energetic day!
