"Growing watermelons?"
Ye Zhiwu was stunned. He didn't expect that Su He would give him this idea.
This is really not a good idea.
Moreover, someone at home does make money growing watermelons.
But growing watermelons is really hard work, so he can do it alone.
Growing watermelons is not an easy job.
If you plant less, that's okay.
But what he wants is a means of making a living, and this amount is at least measured in acres.
In this way, if he works hard himself, Tian Feng will probably have to work hard like him, and then the whole family will also work hard.
He felt sorry for her and didn't want her to suffer this.
Tian Feng seemed to know what Ye Zhiwu was thinking, and hurriedly said in front of Su He: "I think growing watermelons is good. And I have eaten watermelons from Nanzhu Village, and they are sweet. Much sweeter than the watermelons here. .If it’s to grow those watermelons, I think it’s okay.”
She looked at Ye Zhiwu and said comfortingly: "I know you don't want me and the children to endure hardship. But this is our family's business. Don't worry, we are not incapable of hardship. As a family, everything is sweet. "
Su He felt that he had eaten a lot of dog food at this moment.
That's enough.
Ye Zhiwu was confused in the past few years, but in middle age, he actually found love?
Where is the logic in this?
He also wants to go back, and he also wants to show his affection.
Sheng Wenqiao: Do you have this day too?
At this time, Yuqiu should go to Lijiang with her teachers and classmates, right?
Those who study art should travel around and improve their artistic taste.
I don’t know if I will endure hardship.
"He Yazi?"
Su He came back to his senses: "What?"
Just now, he fell into reverie and thought of Sheng Yuqiu.
Ye Zhiwu didn't know what his nephew was thinking about, and he didn't care much.
Ye Zhiwu asked: "But many people grow watermelons in our village. And they are indeed delicious, but the production is limited."
After thinking about it, Ye Zhiwu added: "Besides, there is a market in our village where you can easily sell watermelons. There are even many people who come to our village to buy watermelons. But there is not one here. When the time comes, You can’t have your aunt and I grow watermelons and then set up a stall to sell them, right?”
Tian Feng was a little embarrassed.
They do have a lot of requirements.
Someone helped me come up with an idea, but they still picked this and that.
Moreover, do you want someone else to cover the sales?
Tian Feng knew that Ye Zhiwu couldn't stand people saying that he entered through the back door.
But if Su He had to solve everything, what was the difference between them and Su He raising them in the company?
Well, there is a difference.
You don’t have to be seen by others, and you don’t have to be told by others.
At least they couldn't hear it.
She wanted to speak, but Su He stopped her with his hand, indicating that she didn't need to say anything.
Su He smiled and said: "This is different. The watermelons grown in the village are ordinary varieties. What I gave you is the Kirin variety."
Although there is also a Kirin melon in the village, in fact, it is really an ordinary variety.
Ye Zhiwu was a little confused, but Su He smiled and said: "Actually, this time I came to southern Fujian. I cooperated with the Academy of Sciences in southern Fujian to study this unicorn melon. This thing is different from ordinary watermelons."
Ye Zhiwu muttered: "What's the difference? Could it be that you can also change the color of the watermelon pulp?"
"It's really possible."
Su He smiled and said: "As long as we use genetic technology, all of this can be achieved."
In fact, there was a type of watermelon with yellow soil in later generations, which was very popular.
Not very big, just as sweet as a watermelon on red soil.
Of course, it is impossible to make it very sweet without using hormones.
Because in later generations they all used greenhouses to accelerate ripening.
It will pay off in a short time.
After a long time, the businessmen were unwilling.
"Gene technology?"
"Yeah, genetic technology."
Su Hekepu said: "We humans, animals, and even these plants all have chromosomes. This involves genetics, such as hair color, eye color, and even some diseases, which may be in chromosomes. passed on to future generations.”
Therefore, if parents are generally tall, their children will also be taller under the same conditions.
It seems that myopia can also be hereditary.
I just don’t know, after a few years, will everyone become myopic?
Su He continued to popularize science: "Let's continue talking about chromosomes. You don't have to worry too much about inheritance. These chromosomes are generally doubled."
"Diploidy refers to an organism that develops from a fertilized egg and contains two sets of chromosomes in its somatic cells."
"In addition, plants cultivated from diploid somatic cells, and plants derived from haploids containing only one set of chromosomes by doubling the number of chromosomes are also called diploids."
This scientific knowledge made Ye Zhiwu feel a little dizzy.
"Just tell me the results. You know I haven't read as many books as you. I don't understand what you are saying."
Ye Zhiwu couldn't understand it, and Tian Feng next to him, as well as Tian Guang and Tian Mei who were eating sweets over there, were just like listening to a book from heaven.
Su He smiled and thought to himself, so the country needs to popularize education.
These basic knowledge will be learned in the high school biology textbooks of later generations.
Basically, everyone can tell a coherent story.
Although it may still be a mystery whether they understand it or not.
Su He said directly: "As long as uncle knows, the common variety is diploid. And the Kirin melon seeds I gave you, the Kirin melon grown from it, is triploid. The most obvious feature is that this watermelon has no From watermelon seeds.”
"ah?"
Su He's words stunned everyone present.
Seedless watermelon is known to future generations.
Nothing surprising.
But people in this era don’t know.
At least, people in China don’t know.
Su He said: "This is actually nothing strange. The earliest bananas were also diploid and had seeds. That is, they had seeds. But ancient people discovered natural triploid bananas in the wild, and they also had seeds. It’s the banana we eat now without seeds. This is triploidy.”
Mention the ready-made example of bananas and they understand.
Ye Zhiwu seemed to understand and said: "In other words, the watermelon you gave us has no seeds. The watermelon grown by others has seeds, right?"
"Yes, that's what it means."
Tian Feng suddenly said strangely: "Then this watermelon has no seeds, how do you get the seeds?"
Su He smiled: "Actually, it's simple. Just use normal diploid and use hormones to double the chromosomes to become a tetraploid. Then the diploid and tetraploid are crossed to become a triploid. That’s seedless watermelon.”
"so complicated."
I don’t know how serious it is.
Everyone present felt this way.
Su He said with a smile: "I will stay here for two days to teach my uncle and aunt how to grow watermelons. As for the sales problem, it is actually very simple. There are no very sweet watermelons on the market, and my triploid has no The biggest advantage of seed watermelon is that it is very sweet."
Tian Guang asked curiously: "Brother He Yazi, you have already obtained this kind of watermelon seeds. Why do you still want to cooperate with the Academy of Sciences to study this?"
Aren't you afraid that others will take it away?
Su He touched Tian Guang's head and said to him with a smile: "Because I want to research more watermelon varieties. Just like what my uncle just said, can I change the color of the watermelon pulp? Mine The answer is, definitely yes. In the future, you may be able to eat yellow melon flesh, which is called golden melon."
In fact, yellow-flesh watermelon is not a genetically modified food.
It is a rare species introduced from Wanwan. It is generally not produced locally and originates from coastal and plain areas.
The reason why the watermelon appears yellow is because this variety of watermelon contains lutein, which is why it appears yellow.
A long time ago, the color of artificially cultivated watermelons ranged from white, light yellow, bright yellow, pink, orange to bright red. Basically, if there was more tomato red in the watermelon, it would be reddish. , these colors are controlled by 3 genes.
Here, there is no need to go on.
Su He talked about many important points, and Ye Zhiwu and Tian Fengcai put all their worries away.
"Okay, I've decided to plant this triploid seedless watermelon. What's it called?" Ye Zhiwu waved his hand, as if he had made an important decision.
Of course, quitting their jobs to grow watermelons is a huge decision for them.
"It's a unicorn melon." Tian Mei reminded from the side.
This kid has a good memory.
And can grasp the key points.
It is a material that can be made.
"Auntie, we must let Tian Guang and Tian Mei go to school in the future." Su He suggested.
Ye Zhiwu said categorically: "Absolutely, this is certain. Even if I sell iron, I still have to support them to study. Just look at you, you will know. Learning knowledge is useful, and what the uncle said is right. Our village Aren’t all our children being driven back to study? My children naturally want to study too.”
Tian Feng was very moved.
Ye Zhiwu indeed regarded his children as his children.
This is closer than a biological son.
After all, his biological son still lives with this nephew.
Tian Fengxin naturally does not want to live with others.
But for Ye Zhiwu, she could adapt.
But since Xiangyaozi herself doesn't want to, she won't force it.
Next, Ye Zhiwu actually resigned.
This was a sensation in the company.
Moreover, Ye Zhiwu resigned just after the boss came.
Could it be that this pair of nephews and uncles are having a conflict?
It shouldn't be.
The big boss is so rich, he just needs to support him.
Do you still lack some money?
Then the news about Ye Zhiwu's resignation to grow watermelons came out.
This made everyone even more confused.
What's so delicious about watermelon?
The watermelons from Bishui City have not spread here. The watermelons they eat are not sweet enough.
Tian Feng comforted: "We just do our own thing. Let others talk about what they like. When the watermelons we grow come out next year, they will know how ridiculous they are."
Su He also said with certainty: "Yes, I am mediocre if I am not envied by others. It is not that no one in the village has opinions about me. In fact, sometimes the opinions of outsiders are not very important. We just didn't see or hear it at the time That’s it. The support of the family, how they feel, is the most important thing.”
Ye Zhiwu opened his mouth and wanted to say, what about your father?
But in the end he said nothing.
He knew that the fault was not with Su He.
It's just a pity.
The eldest brother-in-law is actually not a bad person, but a bit stupid.
It was censored and a wrong concept was formed.
Jinmen, Luo Weimin finally arrived home.
His wife took his luggage and put it away. He opened his mouth, but didn't know how to ask.
Luo Weimin smiled and stepped forward and hugged his wife.
He said in her ear: "I had surgery and the bullet in my waist was taken out."
What?
The wife shouted loudly.
This matter is really too big: "When did you have the surgery? Why didn't you tell me?"
Luo Weimin apologized and said: "This matter was urgent at the time, and I was afraid that you would worry. After all, we are so far apart, and this time, He Yaozi's ninth uncle has really good medical skills. He used silver needles to guide and help I moved the bullet out of the sensitive area, then performed surgery there and took it out in one go."
The two couples were talking, still a little worried.
Luo Weimin didn't feel it himself, it seemed that he felt relaxed just for a moment.
Then, he talked about his own prescription for treating kidney disease.
"If you don't know how, we'd better go to Jiuding Restaurant to make it. He Yaozi said that they will help me get it done. Just go there to eat every day."
But the wife shook her head: "It's not good to trouble others every day. Besides, your work unit is quite sensitive. You go to their store every day to make medicinal meals. Although we get the ingredients ourselves, they don't know. When the time comes, let's talk about three things If there are too many Daosi people, it will be bad for your future."
Luo Weimin thought the same thing.
Although he feels that those who are pure will become pure themselves.
But it’s really not good if people gossip too much.
He has three families to support.
Besides, it wouldn't be good if it affects good friends again.
Sheng Wensong suddenly sneezed and muttered to himself: "Who cares about me anymore? Isn't it that little troublemaker Yuqiu?"
He came all the way back and found that Sheng Yuqiu had left.
And that boy Su He actually set off so quickly.
He was also a little confused, why was Su He willing to spend so much money just for a few branches?
Although the mother tree Dahongpao is good, the Academy of Sciences doesn’t have any successful projects, so he can succeed?
Besides, it’s so much money.
What's so good about tea?
He doesn't know much about tea himself, and he doesn't like drinking tea.
Naturally, this behavior cannot be understood.
All I can say is that I am happy that money can’t buy it.
Su He spent more than a day here and taught Ye Zhiwu some basic points to pay attention to.
Ye Zhiwu also asked Ye Zhiwu to write down some important things.
A bad letter is worse than a good letter.
Write it down, even if you forget it, you will know when you look back at it.
The two of them calculated their savings overnight and found to their embarrassment that they were still a little short.
Moreover, some money must be reserved for Tian Feng to raise a baby.
I have to have a baby next year, and I still need money for milk powder.
