Chapter 128 Prejudice
The relationship between Li Shaoan and Wang Xiangxiu is somewhat subtle. It cannot be said that they are childhood sweethearts. They are not like Qian Xiaolin. They have fought since childhood.
These two were classmates from elementary school to junior high school. Logically speaking, they should be closer, but Wang Xiangxiu always regarded Li Shaoan as the target he wanted to defeat.
But things went against your wishes. Sometimes you are not afraid that others will be better than you, but you will be afraid that those who are better than you will work harder than you. Obviously, Li Shaoan is the one who is better than her and harder than her.
In terms of academics, the gap between the two is getting wider and wider, and Wang Xiangxiu always secretly competes with Li Shaoan, so Wang Xiangxiu's prejudice against Li Shaoan is getting deeper and deeper, while Li Shaoan completely doesn't understand why Wang Xiangxiu has to act like seeing her enemies when she sees her.
In short, no matter whether Li Shaoan cares or not, this settlement is here, and it is impossible to avoid it.
After walking around the fungus room, Li Shaoan roughly checked the environment in which the mushrooms grew. It turned out that these mushrooms had basically died during the period of young mushrooms. It seemed that there was indeed a problem.
"How many times has this been?"
“Third time.”
"Young mushrooms die, either because the temperature is too high or the air humidity is too dry. Do you have a thermometer here?"
“That’s more to say.”
Wang Xiangxiu took off a circular thermometer from the pillar, which showed the temperature and humidity in the bacteria room.
Li Shaoan took the thermometer and looked at it, saying, "It's strange, everything is normal, and temperature and humidity are the best conditions for mycelium to reproduce and grow. How can young mushrooms die?"
"I do it step by step according to the method in the book, and there is no possibility of problems."
Li Shaoan picked a germ bag and asked, "Can you open it and see?"
"It's up to you." Wang Xiangxiu said indifferently.
When he pulled open the bacteria bag, a fermented smell came to his nose. The smell was a bit intoxicating. Li Shaoan couldn't help but wrinkle his nose, "Is there any quick lime mixed?"
Wang Xiangxiu said: "It is all prepared according to the proportions recorded in the book, with wood chips, nutrients, and quicklime all inside."
"Does there be a ph test strip? I'll test the pH."
"Yes, you wait." Wang Xiangxiu went to find test strips for Li Shaoan.
Taking the ph test strip found by Wang Xiangxiu, Li Shaoan took some filling material and squeezed out the moisture inside to drip on the test strip. The yellow ph test strip appeared slightly light green, with a slightly higher pH than 7.
"Weak alkaline is a very suitable environment for mushroom growth."
Li Shaoan couldn't understand it even more. All the conditions were fine, and the temperature, humidity and pH were all suitable. Why did Wang Xiangxiu's mushrooms grow poorly?
"Forget it, you can't figure it out even if you see this way, so I'll go to a special mushroom grower to ask."
Wang Xiangxiu's tone was full of contempt for Li Shaoan, believing that Li Shaoan was just pretending and bluffing, and it was impossible to find a problem.
Li Shaoan continued to check back and forth in the fungi room, deafing Wang Xiangxiu's words, and was determined to solve the problem.
"Don't worry, even if you didn't help me, I will get the self-defense spray for you."
Wang Xiangxiu only thought that Li Shaoan refused to give up easily for the bottle of self-defense spray, but in fact she just mistakenly underestimated Li Shaoan's persistence.
The reason why Li Shaoan continued to help Wang Xiangxiu find out the reason why the young mushrooms died was that it was indeed for self-defense spray. Secondly, he was growing mushrooms himself. It was a valuable experience to prevent him from being helpless when he encountered such a situation in the future.
Seeing that Li Shaoan ignored him, Wang Xiangxiu was a little unhappy and said proudly: "I'm out, you can continue to stay here."
It was just one afternoon when Wang Xiangxiu slept for one afternoon and woke up. She wanted to come to the fungus room to see the situation. Maybe Li Shaoan had already left without any worries.
As a result, as soon as he entered the fungus room, Wang Xiangxiu heard a heart-warming shout from Li Shaoan inside.
"Xiangxiu, you're here just in time. I know why there's something wrong with your mushrooms."
Li Shaoan took the thermometer and came to the densely packed buns of bacteria in the corner. After placing it for a while, the pointer of the thermometer increased significantly twice.
"Did you see it?" Li Shaoan pointed out the changes in the thermometer to Wang Xiangxiu.
"What's going on?" Wang Xiangxiu was puzzled.
Li Shaoan explained: "Did your mushroom room be widened and lengthened based on my room?"
Wang Xiangxiu did not deny it, it was considered a default.
"That's right. The overall area of your bacteria room is larger than that of mine. If you put the thermometer in the center, the temperature and humidity monitored are naturally different from the corners of the dense walls of bacteria."
Wang Xiangxiu was a little unbelievable and questioned: "Will there be such a big difference in the temperature in the same room?"
Li Shaoan said: "I'll ask you another question. How many bags of bacteria bags have you put in this bacteria room?"
Wang Xiangxiu explained: "It's about 5,000 bags." In fact, she said less of this. The real number of bacteria bags should be about 6,000 bags.
Li Shaoan snapped his fingers and said, "This is the real key! You should know that fungi will emit a large amount of carbon dioxide when they grow. This greenhouse gas can cause the temperature to rise quickly. If the temperature is too high, it will cause the young mushrooms to die. Now you know what the reason is."
Wang Xiangxiu suddenly felt like he was shooting himself in the foot. When he was filling in the bacteria bags, he was just for Li Shaoan. After learning that there were three thousand bags of bacteria bags in Li Shaoan's bacteria room, he doubled the data on the planting book without authorization. Unexpectedly, something really happened.
Li Shaoan said: "It's not a big problem, and you don't have to worry too much. Ventilate and ventilate in time, reduce the indoor carbon dioxide concentration, spray water frequently, increase air humidity, and reduce the number of bacteria bags. It won't take long for your mushrooms to grow smoothly."
Wang Xiangxiu was in a very complicated mood at this time. On the one hand, it was thanks to Li Shaoan who helped her find the reason, so she could solve the problem. But on the other hand, she couldn't help but thank Li Shaoan.
"This is your own voluntary, don't think I will thank you."
"You don't need to thank me, just don't forget what I want."
After the problem was solved, Li Shaoan walked out of the Wang family's bacteria room in a good mood.
The more Wang Xiangxiu thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt. She obviously wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to grow mushrooms to beat Li Shaoan, but she died before she could succeed. She was helped by Li Shaoan in the initial stage.
Following Li Shaoan's footsteps to the door, Wang Xiangxiu shouted loudly at Li Shaoan's back.
"Li Shaoan, why do you have the best no matter what you have been since childhood? I will always be behind you? I don't believe in evil. I, Wang Xiangxiu, came back this time to defeat you!"
"Okay, then we will do our best to compete."
Li Shaoan turned around and not only did he not get angry, but he looked very happy.
The reason why I am happy is that Wang Xiangxiu bravely expressed her inner thoughts. No matter what prejudice is, as long as she speaks it, there is a chance to resolve it. If she keeps it in her heart, prejudice will always be just prejudice.
