Chapter 308: Starting to Plant Herbs
Luo Meili prepared to return to Xianhe Village early the next morning.
"Aren't you going to see her?" Tu Chaoxi asked.
Luo Meili waved her hand: "I booked tickets for the afternoon. The first batch of button mushrooms this year has just been planted, and my third aunt is too old to keep an eye on them."
“A new batch of young people came back to the village this year. They don’t know anything and we have to teach them.”
In recent years, the button mushrooms grown in Xianhe Village have become famous, and the young and middle-aged people who had left have gradually returned.
"We used to worry that there wouldn't be enough people in the village, but now there are too many people, and we don't know what to do with them."
After a pause, Luo Meili said, "They will all come back."
Tu Chaoxi didn't know what to say: "...We'll take you."
Just as I finished speaking, my phone rang.
It is Tu Yao.
Once the call connected, a noticeably loud voice rang out: "Are you free? Are you free? I need some help!"
The three of them were slightly taken aback.
This was the first time she had taken the initiative to approach them since reuniting with Tu Yao, and also the first time she had taken the initiative to ask them for help.
For a moment, Tu Chaoxi was a little slow to react.
Luo Meili quickly slapped each of them: "What are you standing there for? Go help Xiao Mao!"
The car quickly arrived at the welfare home.
From a distance, you can see more than a dozen small boxes placed at the gate. Half of the boxes are open and filled with batches of herbs, some still growing in nutrient bottles, and some still with roots and soil.
Tu Yao was still holding a bunch of bottles and jars, clearly hesitating about how to put them away.
Before the car even stopped, Tu Chaoxi shouted through the car window, "What's going on, Tu Xiaomao? Why are there so many herbs?"
Tu Yao turned around and instantly breathed a sigh of relief: "Quick, quick! I can't carry any more!"
The three of them got out of the car one after another, strode over, and quickly took the bottles and jars from her hands and put them on the ground.
Tu Chaoxi pulled the person over and frowned when she saw her face, which was flushed from exhaustion.
I casually wiped her forehead; it was covered in sweat.
"What are you doing? Aren't you at work today?"
Tu Yao didn't flinch, and nodded: "I resigned, I'm quitting."
Now Nan Ke and Lin Yue also looked over.
Why did you quit?
Tu Yao chuckled: "Because I'm going to plant medicinal herbs!"
She paused for a moment, then said, "I'm going to become a major herbalist!"
As soon as the powerful voice landed, Tu Chaoxi was suddenly stunned, momentarily dazed.
Four years ago, his sister told him the same thing, excitedly and firmly, in front of a small mushroom house.
Her dream is to become a major producer of button mushrooms.
Although it has now changed from button mushrooms to herbs, Tu Yao remains the same.
Tu Yao broke free from his hand and excitedly opened the remaining boxes, which, without exception, were all filled with herbs.
"Look!"
Tu Chaoxi was clearly still not over it, looking at her proud expression.
"...So many, where should we plant them?"
Tu Yao shook her head: "I'm still looking, it's not easy to find one."
"Why is it hard to find?"
Tu Yao: "For example, these two boxes need to be in a humid climate, but the soil needs to be a bit dry, preferably near woodland with rich soil."
"Those two boxes haven't been landed yet. They need to be guarded by someone at fixed times and locations. There are strict requirements for water volume and soil quality."
She introduced the past in categories.
In summary, there were three batches. The first batch was not picky about soil conditions and could be planted anywhere. The second batch was slightly more selective.
The last ones are still in the culture flasks.
After finishing speaking, Tu Yao paused for a moment, then turned her head:
"...So do you have a place where I can grow it?"
The atmosphere suddenly became quiet.
Tu Chaoxi, Nan Ke, and Lin Yue were truly caught off guard.
Before she could even figure out the dazzling array of herbs and the numerous, varied planting requirements, Tu Chaoxi thought she had misheard.
He asked again, still unsure, "What did you say?"
Tu Yao patiently repeated, "I said, I have nowhere to plant it."
Do you have any? If so, could you help me plant them?
Tu Chaoxi was stunned again.
Nan Ke's gaze shifted slightly as he looked at the girl surrounded by herbs. A vague intuition flashed through his mind, but he couldn't quite grasp it.
The next second, Lin Yue suddenly said, "Yes."
Everyone's eyes turned to look at it.
Seeing Tu Yao's expectant eyes, Lin Yue pursed his lips and said, "Yes."
The climate is humid, the land is dry, and the area is close to water and woodland. There is a template-like place that is perfectly suitable for the second batch of herbs.
Crane Village.
Lin Yue pointed to the opposite side: "I have a suitable place to grow these boxes, but it's a bit far."
"But it's okay, the guy here also has a transport chain, he can help you deliver it."
Tu Chaoxi and Nan Ke belatedly realized what Lin Yue was talking about.
It was an area Lin Yue was familiar with, and he found himself becoming more talkative without realizing it.
"If you want air freight, I can arrange a dedicated line, it will arrive in two hours. Land freight is also fine, it will arrive the next day."
“Although it’s a remote place, transportation is very convenient now, and there are people helping to keep an eye on things. If they’re not available, I’ll find someone else for you.”
After thinking for a moment, he continued, "...Or, do you want to grow it yourself?"
Upon hearing this, Tu Chaoxi's expression became tense.
Tu Yao neither nodded nor shook her head.
Pointing to several boxes of culture bottles, he said, "I still have to take care of them."
"So, can I give you all those herbs?"
Tu Yao's eyes were bright, radiating complete trust.
Lin Yue suddenly paused, stunned.
He wasn't one to dwell on the past, but somehow, at this moment he suddenly thought of the time when Tu Yao helped him seize Lin Qiuping's company.
Back then, whether it was fighting or vying for shares, he was always firmly protected by Tu Yao.
Tu Yao used all her belongings as the foundation for her new life, which pried open a glimmer of hope for her bleak future.
Tu Yao once said that if he succeeded, he would make a lot of money and take good care of her.
After a four-year gap, it seems he finally has the opportunity to fulfill his original promise.
Lin Yue couldn't resist reaching out and gently patting her head with his slightly rough palm.
"good."
"It's okay if you're busy, just leave it all to the delivery guy."
That afternoon, Lin Yue contacted the branch office in the south and set up a dedicated blockchain.
Boxes of herbs were packaged in layers of packaging and protected with the highest level of security.
Lin Yue stood in front of the truck, personally testing the temperature, inspecting the packaging and tires, just as meticulously and attentively as he had been when loading batches of mountain goods into the truck years ago.
What's different is that the quiet and reserved personality of the past has, over time, shed all its immaturity and grown into a capable and independent person.
Tu Yao squatted by the door and watched quietly for a while.
She suddenly turned her head and asked, "Aren't you going to talk about me?"
Tu Chaoxi sat beside her, and frowned upon hearing this: "What did I say to you?"
"Tell them I'm resigning."
Tu Yao: "Shouldn't you parents ask a couple of questions at this time?"
Tu Chaoxi scoffed, "What's there to say?"
Needless to say, Tu Xiaomao could even dig for gold if he wanted to, let alone grow herbs.
"What if I want to dig for gold?"
"Damn!" Tu Chaoxi slapped his knee. "I'll buy you a gold mine tomorrow!"
I wonder if the world integration doesn't go smoothly, this gold mine might grow legs and follow Tu Xiaomao.
Tu Yao: ...
Tu Yao blinked blankly: "...I wasn't joking."
Tu Chaoxi glanced at her: "Was I joking?"
He chuckled as he spoke, "Do whatever you like."
Whether you want to live an ordinary life or be a meaningful person, it's fine either way.
Just like Luo's mother said, just live well.
Tu Yao looked at him quietly, then suddenly said, "The same goes for you. Go do your own things and stop revolving around me."
Tu Chaoxi frowned.
The next second, Tu Yao shouted:
"elder brother."
Tu Chaoxi was stunned, and all her rebuttals instantly got stuck in her throat.
