Chapter 48 Ruby in the Orchid
Peonies, crabapples, camellias, peonies, etc. were all in full bloom, and Jiang Youzhen even saw a pot of yellow magnolias on the side.
Rich people really know how to enjoy life. Look at the treatment in this greenhouse, it is beyond the reach of poor people like them.
"This orchid is very valuable, so we have placed a separate small flower house for it. Please pay attention to it later.
I've said this before, if you don't know how to treat it, it's still not too late to leave now. But if something goes wrong with the orchid, it won't be so easy to get over it."
When Jiang Youzhen heard this, he realized that although the man in front of him was dressed as a servant, the calluses on his knuckles and his aura were completely different from those of a servant.
I guess he is the same as Manager Zhou, just a name in front of outsiders, but he actually has some status, like a martial artist.
This orchid is so important that it needs so many people to protect it?
With such a noble status as a prince, what kind of orchid could he not have?
If it dies, just find another one. Why go through so much trouble?
When Jiang Fugui saw that the man's tone and expression were so serious, he suddenly felt uneasy again.
He glanced at Jiang Youzhen nervously, but Jiang Youzhen gave him a calm look.
"Hey, my dad has been busy all day and is very tired. Please take him to rest first. He can't help here."
The servant was very surprised. He thought this man could take care of the flowers and plants, but he didn't expect it to be a young boy who looked only twelve or thirteen years old?
The servant came back soon after leaving the greenhouse, and Jiang Fugui was taken out by another servant.
Originally Jiang Fugui was reluctant to leave, but Jiang Youzhen waved his hand and asked him to leave first.
Jiang Fugui's presence here will only add to his worries, so he might as well go and take a rest.
Seeing that the boy was standing behind her, Jiang Youzhen knew that this man was looking at her.
But, how can I get the mixed liquid out if there are outsiders around?
It was only after entering the inner room of the greenhouse that Jiang Youzhen saw the orchid worth five hundred taels.
The first time she saw it, she knew what was wrong with the flower.
There are many yellow spots on the leaves, and they look listless and wilted. They must be sick!
"It's too warm here. Orchids like warmth, but it's not good to be too hot."
As soon as Jiang Youzhen walked into the inner greenhouse, he felt so hot that sweat broke out on his back.
She was wearing a big coat, and her palms were already sweaty.
"Also, this place is too closed and needs ventilation. It's best to put it in a semi-shaded place, but it needs to be covered in the sun."
When the servant heard Jiang Youzhen's professional words, he immediately asked someone to bring paper and pen to write them down.
And immediately opened the small door on the other side of the greenhouse as Jiang Youzhen said.
A cold wind blew in, blowing away the sweat on Jiang Youzhen's back.
"Move the flowers here! I think this corner is perfect. We can just build a awning over it with cloth."
Jiang Youzhen was in charge of the command and had no intention of doing it himself.
The boy didn't say much, he just stepped forward with the flower pot and put it over, and asked someone to prepare the tent.
"This orchid is sick and needs to be repotted to isolate the diseased area. Please prepare a flowerpot and some soil."
This time the servant hesitated, "You want to dig it out?"
Jiang Youzhen was speechless. "Isn't this nonsense? If we don't dig it out, how can we solve the root problem? Can the orchid be cured by cutting off the leaves above?"
She found that the leaves had indeed been cut. She guessed that the gardener cut them because he saw that the leaves were turning yellow.
However, this is only a temporary solution and not a fundamental solution. If the root problem is not resolved, it will continue to affect the leaves.
The servant still didn't move. "Are you sure? If this orchid dies, neither you nor I can bear the consequences."
Jiang Youzhen was even more curious. She couldn't help but ask, "Even if this orchid is rare, it's not hard to find the same variety! Why don't you give up and find a new one?"
The servant sighed, "The reason is not something that can be told to outsiders. The orchid cannot be replaced. It must be this one, and it must be well taken care of."
Jiang Youzhen nodded, "Okay! Then do as I say. Otherwise, in two days, this orchid will be completely beyond saving."
Seeing that Jiang Youzhen was confident, the servant had no choice but to obey.
The first step Jiang Youzhen planned to take was to isolate the diseased plants. During the process, Jiang Youzhen suddenly discovered that there were many small black spots inside the leaves.
She frowned slightly. It seemed that it was not just due to improper maintenance, but also due to bacterial infection.
After proper trimming, Jiang Youzhen discovered that there was a ruby ring face the size of a little finger nail exposed inside.
What does it mean? Is it a test for her? Or is it a test for her? Is she that kind of person?
"What do you think this is? Is it a ruby? I haven't seen much, but it looks like one."
This ring face was dug out from the roots of an orchid and is very hidden.
Even if you dig out the orchid roots, there is still a lot of soil on them, so you may not find them.
If Jiang Youzhen hadn't been sharp-eyed, the ring face would probably have been buried in the pot along with the orchid.
Could it be that it fell in there before and I wasn't paying attention, and then more soil was added and it was buried there?
The servant was shocked when he heard this. He looked at the ruby ring face covered with dirt that Jiang Youzhen took out. His eyes suddenly flashed, and then he showed a look of surprise.
He took out a handkerchief from his bosom, carefully placed the ring face on the handkerchief, and then put it in his bosom.
Jiang Youzhen was a little surprised, but it had nothing to do with her, so she should mind her own business.
The instruction manual for the mixture had been systematically passed to her, a white jade porcelain bottle with only ten drops in it.
Although it’s a small amount, just one drop of this mixture can work wonders.
In order to prevent the patient from being too weak to benefit from the supplement, Jiang Youzhen planned to dilute the mixture and water the patient multiple times.
This was the first time Jiang Youzhen saw an ancient shower head. It was in the shape of a lotus pod, with a long neck in the middle and a round belly at the bottom. There was no handle, so it was not very convenient to water.
The most important thing is that it is made of ceramic and is very heavy.
"Why not have an extra handle like a teapot? It's too heavy." Jiang Youzhen muttered casually.
When the servant heard this, he suddenly understood.
"It makes sense."
Jiang Youzhen ignored him, picked up the shower head, filled it with water, and then secretly put a drop of the mixture into the shower head.
"What did you release?" The servant suddenly grabbed Jiang Youzhen's hand and asked sternly.
Jiang Youzhen's wrist was pinched by him and it hurt, "hiss~"
How come his hands are so strong and his eyes are so sharp?
"I made my own disinfectant. You need to disinfect your orchid."
The servant looked at Jiang Youzhen doubtfully, then let go of his hand.
Jiang Youzhen rolled his eyes. "If anything happens to Lanhua, I will be implicated too. Am I such a fool?"
The servant reacted and smiled awkwardly.
Could it be that someone had tampered with this orchid before? Jiang Youzhen was a little suspicious. She was so nervous. Could she be involved in the court struggle?
