MTL - Master of Exotic Planting-Chapter 230 Scorpion
The old man hesitated, waving to the young man behind him, "take some fertilizer to increase production!"
For the emperor's tribute tea, every procedure has strict regulations.
It is even possible that even the seedlings will be strictly checked. As for the applied fertilizer, it is also formulated by the Imperial College of Shennong and then supplied to local tea farmers. It is strictly forbidden to use other fertilizers.
In order to make more money, these tea farmers illegally use the increased production of fertilizers purchased outside. They act very cautiously and naturally do not store those fertilizers in Lingtian.
When it is usually applied, it is also secretly carried out.
More will choose to be in the evening or mixed with the regular fertilizer provided by the palace.
Not long after, the young ghost was admired and returned like a thief. There is a production of fertilizer in the arms.
After Zhang Xiaofan took over, check it carefully.
These fertilizers have been ground into black powder and there are no specific ingredients at all.
It’s a touch of scent, it’s very light, but it still smells
“How long have you been applying this fertilizer?”
"It has been several years. Is it that Zhang Daren suspects that it is a fertilizer problem?" The old man is not stupid, and he has begun to think about the problem of tribute tea.
Tea farmers will certainly not be poisoned.
Even if there is a big interest temptation, no one will do this stupid thing.
There is only one possibility, they are used secretly.
Helping the sinister villain to do the work of the Jiuzu, still do not know. This is really sold, and it is still helping people.
"If there is a problem with the fertilizer, you can know it! If you don't want to be annihilated, you should keep your mouth shut, don't rumor. Because the poisoned person in the dark, if you know that the matter will be revealed, you will definitely find a way to wipe out the crime. Then let you Be a scapegoat."
Zhang Xiaofan reminded these tea farmers that they began to concentrate on research.
First, some fertilizers were added, and they were applied to the roots of the new seedlings, and then watered.
The rest is patient waiting.
Just after two hours, the magical scene appeared.
Two tea seedlings with increased yield were applied, and all of them sprouted one bud. The buds that have grown out are growing a little longer. Their leaves are thick, wide and long, and the appearance is excellent.
Such a terrible growth rate is simply unheard of.
Only Zhang Xiaofan's super power can be done.
The effect of increasing fertilizer is so amazing that it is no wonder that tea farmers are at risk of being jailed and secretly used. It is indeed possible to increase a large income.
Moreover, the tribute tea with increased yield is applied, and the appearance is excellent. If you don't apply the tribute tea that increases the yield of fertilizer, the maximum of one or two percent in the 10% can be compared with it. When the Ministry of Internal Affairs purchases tribute tea, it will definitely give priority to those teas that have good taste.
In this way, honestly, the use of tea farmers who do not use fertilizer to increase production will be even worse.
In order to make a living, all the tea farmers eventually steal the application of increased fertilizer.
“Look at whether it is highly toxic?” Zhang Xiaofan showed super power to view two tea seedlings that were added with fertilizer.
[Name: Dahongpao, first-order grass. 】
[age: 1 year old. 】
[Life: 96. 】
[Properties: refreshing, cooling blood and detoxification. 】
"Not poison!"
Zhang Xiaofan was somewhat disappointed.
"It's not right, its life has dropped four points. And both are the same. Those who have not applied the fertilizer to increase the production of fertilizer, the vitality is still full."
After careful consideration, Zhang Xiaofan decided that these fertilizers must have problems.
What's more, the character that Shennongge has shown has always been poor.
Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaofan remembered what Mr. Shang Min had said.
There are some poisons that are highly toxic to humans but not to plants.
Will it be because they grow on the tree and are still in a live state, so there is no toxicity?
This possibility is relatively large.
Zhang Xiaofan immediately put on the buckskin gloves and carefully picked some of the buds. Then check the properties of these teas.
Still non-toxic.
“Is it because time is too short? Or for other reasons?”
Anyway, he is arguing that there is a problem with these fertilizers sold by Shennongge. There must be no negligence in which link.
Because of the life and death of countless people in the town of Hongpao, the old man and a group of tea farmers accompanied him all the way.
They are always waiting for Zhang Xiaofan to dispatch.
At this moment, Zhang Xiaofan was taken off the tea, and then frowned. The old man couldn’t help but ask, “Zhang Daren, are you prepared to make tea? We make tea on weekdays, after cleaning, fumigation, cool sun, sputum, boring There are twenty-three crafts in total. The raw tea that has just been harvested can not be counted."
A word awakens the dreamer.
For the tea making process, Zhang Xiaofan does not understand.
However, he listened to the old man's words and flashed an aura in his head.
Will it be just because of a certain procedure in the tea making process that the toxicity contained in the tea is justified?
"Old man, you immediately take these pieces of tea to make tea, maybe, the problem is inside." Zhang Xiaofan said excitedly.
The old man looked at the pots that Zhang Xiaofan handed over. Why is it that "just a dozen teas, how can we make tea? We usually make tea, and we say that it is also a hundred pounds together."
Zhang Xiaofan can't control this.
In order to find out the problem in the shortest time, more than a dozen pieces of tea have to be made.
"I can tell you that not only must we find ways to make them into tea, but we must follow each original process. There must be no sloppy." Zhang Xiaofan's expression is very serious.
The old man sighed and shook his head and reluctantly agreed.
He always felt that the Zhang Daren was too young and very unreliable. It’s always weird to act.
More than a dozen pieces of tea go through a tea making process. Isn't it a joke?
Zhang Xiaofan personally followed the old man to the tea factory.
The first is cleaning, using spring water. This will not be a problem.
The second process is fumigation. In order to ensure that the tea is more concentrated, during the fumigation process, some expensive materials will be added to the soup below.
"Stop, stop, yes! I have found the problem."
Zhang Xiaofan shouted in excitement.
Because he found that the original non-toxic tea leaves gradually became poisonous tea during the fumigation process.
It is now 100% certain that these teas will only show toxicity if they are fumigated.
Explain that the poisoned person is extremely proficient in the tea making process.
In order to verify that he guessed it right, Zhang Xiaofan picked up some tea leaves that were ok. Let the old man follow the above steps, clean and fumigation. Use the same pot of fumigation soup.
This time, it is non-toxic.
The facts are clear, and there is absolutely a problem with those that increase production.
Very toxic, it also appeared after the application of increased fertilizer. It must also be fumigated to react with certain chemical components in the fumigant mist to eventually reveal toxicity.
"What are the ingredients in your fumigation soup?" Zhang Xiaofan asked.
"This ... is not inconsistent, fumigation soup belongs to the secret recipe of our red robe township ancestors, generally do not tell outsiders." The old man said with a look of embarrassment.
"Well, then you will be squatting. When you get to the Nine-Nine, you can bring it into the mud together."
Zhang Xiaofan sneered and walked outside.
He is here to work hard to find out how tribute tea is poisoned? The ultimate goal is to save these tea farmers in Hongpao Township.
As a result, the good heart has become a liver and lung. These people are not grateful at all, do not accept the feelings, and take him as an outsider.
Even the formula of a fumigation soup is not willing to tell him.
Is this a thief?
Zhang Xiaofan can grow a lot of money by cultivating a few kinds of Lingcao. I have no worries about my life.
Use the self-destructive identity to steal the tea making process of others? Isn't this funny?
"Zhang Daren, Zhang Daren, don't be angry, I said, I said..." The old man had a battle between heaven and earth, biting his teeth, and finally decided to tell Zhang Xiaofan the formula of the fumigation soup.
After getting the formula of the fumigation soup, Zhang Xiaofan checked each formula.
"There are no problems with other formulas, but the alum inside is probably the culprit." After a series of investigations, Zhang Xiaofan finally determined that the alum in the fumigation soup was the culprit.
After all, it's just his guess. To get the most accurate answer, you have to go through many experiments.
Immediately pick up a few pieces of problematic tea and then remove the alum from the fumigation soup. Fumigation is carried out.
Facts have proved that Zhang Xiaofan has a very high talent in this respect.
His judgment is extremely accurate.
After removing the alum, it was fumigation for half an hour, and the tea with the problem still showed normal. No toxicity appeared.
"What kind of poison is it, when it is combined with alum, will it show toxicity?"
Zhang Xiaofan pondered for a while, nothing to gain.
He decided to return to Yuanwu College and ask Mr. Shang Min. After all, the knowledge of the pharmaceutical industry, Zhang Xiaofan is relatively weak.
Teacher Shang Min specializes in teaching this knowledge, and may know.
Zhang Xiaofan brought some problematic tea leaves, as well as those who increased the production of fertilizer, and even dug a tea seedling that had been applied to increase fertilizer, and transplanted it into a flower pot. With these things, I rushed to Yuanwu College.
......
Every teacher in the college has an office of its own.
Zhang Xiaofan, who is slightly awkward, is standing outside the office of Teacher Shang Min. He raised his hand and wanted to knock on the door, he hesitated, and finally let go of his hand.
But when you think of yourself doing this, you can find out the real murderer and save thousands of lives in Hongpao Township.
He gritted his teeth and raised his hand again.
It’s just that I haven’t knocked it down.
In the face of the cold and serious teacher Shang Min, he was slow to make up his mind.
"Why? Is it so terrible?" A cold voice rang from not far behind. I saw Teacher Shang Min holding the Tablet, I don’t know when it appeared behind him.
Zhang Xiaofan could not help but yell.
It’s too shameful.
The performance of the timid hesitation just now was seen by Teacher Shang Min.
Originally thought that Teacher Shang Min was in the office, who could have thought that she was not inside. This time, the shame is lost.
Fortunately, Zhang Xiaofan’s face is thick enough to resist.
"Shang teacher, I have questions to ask you, don't know if you are convenient now?" Zhang Xiaofan can feel that Teacher Shang Min seems to be laughing.
She must be making fun of me.
"come in!"
Teacher Shang Min opened the door and had already taken the lead.
Zhang Xiaofan followed the office.
"Talk about it, what questions do you want to ask me?" Teacher Shang Min stared at him.
This problem student has never taken her class seriously on weekdays, and now she actually asks her for advice. Does the sun come out to the west?
"Teacher, look at this tea seedling, and these fertilizers." Zhang Xiaofan put them on the desk. “These fertilizers allow tea seedlings to grow quickly and increase the yield of tea...”
He simply explained the cause and effect.
"You said, what kind of poison is it, when combined with Alum, it will show poison?"
Teacher Shang Min couldn't help but think of yesterday, Zhang Xiaofan asked her strange question. Now associates with these teas, she faintly realizes that Zhang Xiaofan seems to be doing a business.
"Combined with alum, it will show toxicity. This kind of poison is not much. It is one of the commonly used materials for fumigation tea. It has a strong astringent effect. It can better preserve the aroma of tea. Inside the tea leaves. Only after boiling water, will it escape."
"You sit down first, and the teacher has to check the information to be sure."
In Mr. Shang Min’s office, there are many homemade instruments and tools.
It looks like a small lab.
Zhang Xiaofan sat at his desk and waited patiently.
I saw Mr. Shang Min on the bookshelf, and kept reading some medicines and classics.
When she found some useful knowledge, she ran back to her desk and studied the tea and fertilizer.
After a full hour, Zhang Xiaofan was about to fall asleep. Teacher Shang Min suddenly shouted excitedly, “Found it!” She held a roll of bamboo slips in her hand.
Zhang Xiaofan is also a spirit.
"If you didn't guess wrong, these fertilizers are mixed with a poison called aconite. However, the poison is very clever. He has treated the aconite with a series of treatments, then put it into the water and cook it. Take the soup and mix it with these fertilizers. And then dried. So, it can greatly reduce their toxicity. At the same time, the aconite can be combined with the alkali in the tea tree. It is hidden inside, even if the silver needle, coagulation and other conventional methods, can not detect ""
After listening to the analysis of Teacher Shang Min, Zhang Xiaofan suddenly became cheerful.
All the doubts have been solved.
It is now 100% certain that it is the poison of Lord Shennong.
The problem is on the fertilizer.
Also, those tea trees that suddenly do not grow new sprouts should be related to the growth of fertilizer itself.
This fertilizer has a strong negative effect.
It is equal to pushing the potential of the tea tree ahead of time. It has been producing so many teas for two years, and after it was applied, it produced two years of production a year. Naturally, the vitality of the tea tree will be overdone in advance.
After a few years, those tea trees entered the aging period ahead of time, and it was no longer possible to grow new shoots.
The short-sighted behavior of tea farmers is tantamount to drinking and quenching thirst.
In the past few years, the application of increased fertilizer, although earning money, has also overdrafted all the benefits in advance. In the next few years, you will never get a penny.
This Shennong Pavilion is too black.
Developed this problematic fertilizer and earned the money of the tea farmers, regardless of the life and death of the tea farmers.
"Shang teacher, thank you! Wait for things, I will thank you again!" Zhang Xiaofan thanked Mr. Shang, and left excitedly.
What is needed now is to fix the evidence and then bring the Shennong Pavilion to justice.
He himself can also make a great contribution.
