Chapter 23 Transplantation Trials

If Li Ba knew that the villa he bought was twice as expensive than the market price, he would definitely be scolded. Although the housing prices in the city were not cheap, in the end of the world, food was the most precious.

After a while shopping, Li Ba walked so hard that his legs and feet were weak, but he couldn't find a suitable store. The location was good, and he basically had the owner. The location was in a different position, so he didn't like it. In the evening, he looked at the sky. It was getting late, so he had to go home.

When he reached the intersection of the hotel, Li Ba suddenly stopped. Not far ahead, at the entrance of the hotel, there was a big Benz parked. Zhou Yan was standing next to the car, and there was an old man with a big back, holding his fat belly that was three times larger than Li Ba. He pointed at Zhou Yan and spitted everywhere, and didn't know what he was saying.

As we got closer, the voices came faintly.

"...Don't think you have found Xiao Liang as your backer. Humph, my Zhao Kang is already a third-level superpower evolver. I heard clearly. He is a third-level superpower evolver... Not to mention you, even Liang Shaoping and Long Sihai will give my Zhao Kang face. That guy Xiao Liang is a big deal... For the sake of the neighbors, I, Zhao Laifu, have never wanted to use force on you... Yanyan, this is my last advice to you. If you don't give me an answer within ten days, you will be at your own risk!"

Zhou Yan kept lowering her head and said nothing. The old man was arrogant and left the words, and got in the car and left.

After running away, Zhou Yan sniffed in the direction of the car, with a look of hatred on his face.

"This guy is that old beast!"

At some point, Li Ba came over with a smile. When Zhou Yan saw it was him, she nodded: "Who else is there except him!"

"Do you want me to kill him for you?" Li Ba made a gesture of wiping his neck.

"Come on, you." Zhou Yan gave him a blank look and turned around and left. Perhaps because she realized that she had a bad attitude just now, the woman turned her head and shouted at Li Ba: "Master, don't stand there and have a meal."

"Here you." Li Ba responded lazily and walked towards the hotel slowly.

The supper was still rich. Four dishes and one soup was already at the level of a wealthy family in the end of the world. Dafang Xiaofang spent the afternoon shopping, bought some gadgets, and gave everyone a gift. No one else cares, but the sisters were very happy. They frequently picked up food for the two brothers at the dinner table, talking and laughing, and very enthusiastic.

After asking, it turned out that the gifts given to them by the two brothers were the most expensive. Each of them had a bottle of perfume. Although it was not a big brand, it also cost 50 kilograms of food coupons. When Li Ba found out, he rolled his eyes: "These two brothers... used my food coupons as a strong wind. If you kilograms of food coupons, you can even call a row of mm to kneel down and lick it!"

"Uncle, have you found the store?" During the meal, the guest suddenly asked. When Li Ba went out in the afternoon, he had already asked for leave from the little girl, so she knew that Li Ba was looking for a store.

Before Li Ba could speak, Zhou Yan looked surprised and asked, "What are you looking for a store?"

"Oh, I have some funds on hand and want to open a material store. In this case, Dafang and Xiaofang have work to do." Li Ba did not hide it and said his plans.

"That's it..." Zhou Yan thought for a while and suddenly said, "Don't look for it, just be here with me."

Zhou Yan’s store is located at the intersection of the town center and is in a very good location. There are a large flow of people in the past and there are no material stores nearby.

Of course Li Ba was willing. However, he still asked: "You only have a storefront and rent it to me. Is your hotel not open?"

Zhou Yan smiled and said, "It's not as good as before. All the good ingredients are monopolized by several big hotels. It's hard to do business in small restaurants. The storefronts you, and the food stalls outside will continue to work, which will not have much impact on me."

She said so, and Li Ba certainly had no objection.

“How much is the rent?”

This is the key.

"You just use it. If you make money, give it some at will. If the business is not good... the rent will be waived!" Zhou Yan was rare to be generous, but she didn't collect rent and gave it to Li Ba for free.

Li Ba knew in his heart that she was reunited and thanking herself for compensating for the losses of the mutated sweet potatoes.

This girl is not bad!

Li Ba became more and more pleasing to the eyes. He looked at Zhou Yan with a smile, which made the other party feel a little embarrassed.

“Happy cooperation!”

When Zhou Yan was about to get angry, Li Ba picked up the wine glass.

After the store was settled, Li Ba went to a worry and was drunk. He drank a lot of beer before he went home to sleep drunk.

It's bright all night.

Early in the morning, Li Ba greeted Dafang and Fang brothers. After breakfast, he drove to the market in a tricycle. There, he bought some decoration materials, counters, electronic scales, desks and other items needed to open a store, and found a few workers who could decorate and went home in a mighty manner.

In the hotel, after Li Ba went out, the four women also became busy. Before the doomsday, the hotel's storefront was the reception hall of Zhou Yan's vacation house, with an area of ​​not small, with a size of more than 100 square meters. After the doomsday, Zhou Yan divided the reception hall in half, half used as a kitchen and storage room, and the other half set a table. They needed to move all the stove in the kitchen and the miscellaneous food in the storage room to the backyard.

The backyard is close to the villa of the holiday house, and by the wall, Zhou Yan plans to build a simple shed to be used as a kitchen. When Li Ba came back, the kitchen and storage room had been cleared. Li Ba saw it and was very satisfied.

"Yanyan, it's a good job."

He imitated the "old beast" yesterday and called Zhou Yan's nickname. After hearing this, Zhou Yan glared at him, looking fierce, but his eyebrows were smiling.

"There's a chance!"

Li Ba is a veteran of flower clubs. You can tell at a glance that Zhou Yan is unhappy on the surface, but she acquiesced in her heart. It seems that this woman has a good impression of herself!

"Three mutated sweet potatoes can bring this girl to bed, it's definitely worth the money!"

After fantasizing about it, Li Ba began to do the important work. Under his command, each had its own division of labor and became busy. The general layout of the material store, Li Ba had already explained to Da Fang Xiao Fang that they were all college students and could quickly understand the boss's meaning.

Afterwards, Li Ba left and said he wanted to go back and have some sleep. In fact, he had more important things to do.

There are many material stores in the city and the competition is fierce. How can we make our own material stores stand out? In addition to food, we also have highlights that attract survivors.

Last night, I learned from Zhou Yan that the ingredients were difficult to make, especially vegetables, fruits and melons, which were monopolized by several major hotels. Li Ba had an idea in his mind, which was to plant some vegetables, fruits and melons for sale to enhance the competitiveness of his own material stores.

This is undoubtedly a good idea, but it is difficult to implement. The area of ​​the bracelet space is too small and can only be used to grow grain. If you want to separate out some fruits and vegetables to grow, it will affect the grain output; secondly, fresh vegetables, fruits and melons are different from grain, and can be found in large quantities from outside. If it comes out of thin air, it will arouse suspicion from others.

Therefore, we can only find another way.

Back to the villa, Li Ba stood in the yard, looked at it, his eyes lit up. There was a circle of flower beds in the yard in front of the villa against the wall. After the end of the world, the temperature difference between day and night is large, and ordinary flowers and plants are difficult to survive, and they are basically dead.

If the seedlings are first cultivated in the bracelet space and then transplanted into the flower bed, this will solve the problem of land use.

In the morning, Li Ba had already bought four vegetable seeds from the market, namely green vegetables, tomatoes, cucumbers and beans. The end of the world has been around for more than five months, and the supplies are abundant, and vegetable and grain planting is not uncommon on the market.

He considered it and decided to grow tomatoes first. Tomatoes are foreign varieties and belong to tropical perennial herbs. After introduction, they are hybridized and cultured, and are characterized by low temperature resistance and high temperature resistance. Among the four vegetables, they are most suitable for the growth of the end of the world.

It’s easy to start and then difficult to do. This is Li Ba’s idea. Although the land in the bracelet space was planted with corn, there were still spaces. He took out a few tomato seeds, his consciousness entered, and sprinkled directly on the land in the space.

There is no space for watering the Spirit Spring, and it takes half an hour to sprout and sprout. Li Ba returned to the villa, found a shovel, and began to loosen the soil in the flower bed. When the work was almost done, the tomato seedlings in the bracelet space had already emerged, and then they were carefully transplanted out by Li Ba and planted in the flower bed.

Tomatoes grow in a natural environment, and the maturity period takes as fast as three or four months. How to speed up the maturation cycle is a difficult problem. Transplanting these tomato seedlings is just a test variety of Li Ba. Another way to find a vegetable required for opening a material store is necessary.

Li Ba had a complete plan for this.

The corn in the bracelet space is about to mature and can be harvested tonight at the latest. After that, Li Ba plans to plant a batch of soybeans and mung beans to make bean sprouts. In this way, the vegetables needed for the opening of the material store will be settled.

In the evening, Li Ba squatted next to the flower bed, staring at a few young seedlings without blinking. Tomato seedlings that grew well in the bracelet space, but after transplanting them, the situation was not good. The leaves were drooping, they were listless and listless, and they looked difficult to survive.

The plants cultivated from the bracelet space all have a mysterious connection with Li Ba. He can clearly feel the weak consciousness emitted by the tomato seedlings, and the information he received was that the external environment was harsh, so they could not take root and survive.

Before the transplant, Li Ba had already watered it. Therefore, there was no water shortage. The tomato itself has the characteristics of resisting high temperatures. The hotter the weather, the faster it grows. Climate reasons can basically be ruled out. Judging by his professional knowledge, the problem lies in the water source.

Water used in settlements is all taken from underground hot springs. Hot springs contain various minerals such as sulfur, which are not hindered by people's drinking, but it is not suitable for watering crops.

Water source! How to solve the problem of watering?

Li Ba scratched his head and didn't think of anything.

The experiment has been successful and failed. Even if these tomato seedlings cannot survive, it doesn’t matter much. Wait and see, if it doesn’t work, think of other solutions.

Li Ba watered the tomato seedlings again. I hope they will make good changes after a night.
Chapter completed!
