2 02 The ruined botanical garden(1/2)
Ye Han came to the entrance of Nanshan Botanical Garden.
The gate at the door had already lost its original function. She moved flexibly and did not allow the dusty jammed to the corner of her clothes.
Looking around, the space of the botanical garden is very vast. According to the system, the area is about 300 acres.
Although it is incomparable to the National Forest Park, which covers an area of more than 15,000 acres, it is still quite considerable as a private botanical garden.
When you walk into the park, the first thing you see is a few pools covered with green trees and a very ornamental rockery waterfall next to it.
It was supposed to be a scene that made people shine, but now it makes people frown.
The water level in the pool is almost exhausted, and it is full of dead branches and leaves, which is dirty and messy. Weeds have also grown on the rockery. From a distance, they look like a homeless man wearing a straw raincoat, especially unkempt.
Seven or eight years ago, this place was an outdoor hot spring museum. These pools were hot spring pools with white mist. Later, due to poor management, they were converted into Nanshan Botanical Garden.
However, due to the huge investment in the early stage of the botanical garden and the lack of characteristics, the place is remote, in addition to attracting a group of tourists when it was first opened, the flow of people has been declining since then. Now it is basically in a semi-waste state, and the employees have been almost disbanded.
It's a pity that such a huge botanical garden is abandoned here like this.
Ye Han sighed in his heart, and while walking forward, he observed the surrounding environment.
There are not many types of trees introduced in the park, most of which are evergreen broad-leaved trees, conifers, shrubs, etc. commonly found in the garden, and are sparsely distributed on both sides of the road.
Some of them have died, while the others are still standing tenaciously.
Because it has not been pruned for a long time, the branches above grow freely like wild grass, stretching without boundaries, growing multiple forks, showing a wild and unruly look like "Don't be beaten by me", and I wish I could poke the branches onto people's eyelids.
Ye Han lowered his head and avoided the "hidden weapon" above his head, stopped by the roadside, raised his hand to stroke the cracked bark, and squatted down to check the soil condition.
It just rained a few days ago, but this did not alleviate the crisis faced by plants. The surface soil was solidified and the roots buried deep inside could not breathe... It is definitely a big project to loosen the soil first, and weeding, top dressing, and pruning.
Continue to move forward, an extremely wide artificial lake that catches your eye.
A winding and melodious water corridor was built on the lake, extending all the way to the center of the lake.
It is about two weeks away and the season when the lotus flowers are first blooming, but there is no grand scene of lotus leaves everywhere. The large lotus leaves are withered and wilted, and they are half dead in the sunlight, presenting a decayed scene. You can still smell a strange smell when you get close to the lake.
It shouldn't be cleaned up for a long time.
Ye Han looked at the dirty water quality below and the algae covered with water bodies, frowned, and took the exit mask from his bag and put it on.
This taste really doesn't smell very good.
This is true only when she gets close, let alone the plants that live inside.
It must be dealt with as soon as possible, otherwise the creatures in the lake will suffer.
Ye Han walked along the wooden plank road to the other side of the lake. The wooden boards under her feet made a slight creaking sound as she walked. She stepped hard. There was no problem with the load-bearing ability, but the appearance was worn and fell off, and it needed to be repaired.
Passing through the artificial lake is a sparse bamboo forest, without the elegance of winding paths. There are only slender "bamboo poles" and sunlight coming from the wide gap, which makes people unable to open their eyes.
The June sun has already brought a little burning meaning. Now it is noon, and the sultry feeling is coming like dark clouds, making people feel more irritable.
Ye Han blocked the dazzling sunshine with his hands, found a shade around him and sat down. His slender fingers twisted hard and unscrewed the mineral water cover.
Soon, the cool spring water moistened the dry lips, and the slightly raised lips became plump and full, like peach blossoms stained with dew, adding a bright color to the withered botanical garden.
After a while of rest, she took out her prepared baseball cap from her bag and put it on, and continued to move forward.
In front is the flower ornamental area and the bonsai garden, which are also the most ornamental places in the botanical garden: such as the Chrysanthemum Pavilion, Peony Garden, Rose Garden, Plum Garden, etc., built with walls to form an independent courtyard.
But just a sign was hung, and you could see weeds growing wildly from the door, which was very desolate.
Ye Han walked into the garden and carefully searched for the "south pearls of the sea" among the weeds.
After some search, I finally found several white cranes that had broken into pieces in the corner of Shaoyao Garden.
This peony species, Xianhebai, has strong stress resistance, resistance to sun and rain, and has a long flowering period.
However, at this time, they were squeezed into the living space by weeds, curled up pitifully in the corner, and were so sluggishly that they were shining in the sun. I don’t know if they could survive.
Ye Han half-squatted down, cleared all the weeds around him, and picked up thicker branches to loosen the soil.
There are no other tools at the moment, so I can only handle it simply.
After a while, a thin layer of sweat was oozing on her white face, and a few strands of hair stuck to both sides of her cheeks, which was not very comfortable.
After finishing it, Ye Han used wet wipes to reason about the dirt on his hands, stood up and rubbed his slightly numb legs.
The white palm was streaked by the thick grass stems, and it was so hot.
He raised his hand to wipe the sweat beads, and then looked at the desolate environment around him. Ye Han sighed silently: "It turns out that there will be no pie falling from the sky."
Along the way, painted plaques, broken gates, dirty pools, half-dead plants, and artificial lakes that smelled smelly... all showed a fact: this place was worse than she thought.
Even though his professional salary is considerable, Ye Han couldn't help feeling a little powerless.
Such a long-deserted botanical garden will not be restored.
At this moment, the system suddenly made a sound: [Host, the novice task has been released, please check it in time.]
The next second, a huge translucent interface appeared in front of Ye Han out of thin air.
It is so thin that it seems to have no thickness, floating in the air without being affected by gravity, full of technology, which is a level that today's Earth's technology cannot reach.
Her information is displayed on the left side of the interface.

This interface appeared when the system was first bound, so Ye Han did not show a surprised expression on his face.
Soon, a glowing dialog box popped up in the middle of the light screen:
[Please complete the novice task: save the plants in the garden (the overall survival rate is not less than 80%), time: one month. 1 million funds will be deducted if not completed.]
?Deduct 1 million???
Ye Han's eyes were fixed on the last line of words, and he couldn't help but frown his beautiful eyebrows.
s, the pie that fell from the sky was taken away before it tasted?
Although she had known for a long time that things would not be that simple, she didn't expect that it would be hard mode as soon as it started.
Looking around the dilapidated botanical garden, Ye Han lowered his eyes and thought:
Can she return the goods for seven days without reason?
As if I felt what Ye Han’s inner thoughts, the next moment, a new line of font popped up on the light screen:
[After completing the novice task, a novice gift package will be distributed: Plant Nutrition Solution*1, Water Purifier*1.]
Ye Han stared at the reward for a few seconds, and driven by curiosity, he clicked on the product introduction.
Product name: Plant nutrition solution

Ye Han looked back and forth twice, and his apricot eyes lit up slightly.
She has always been curious about the unknown, and these two products undoubtedly aroused her interest, and at the same time she has developed a little confidence in rebuilding the botanical garden in her heart.
The first flowering period of lotus flowers is coming. If the effect of the plant nutrient solution is as described by the product - it may be able to catch up with the peak flowering period from July to mid-August, the scene of the lotus flowers in the pond will definitely be very spectacular.
Water quality purifiers are also very useful and can greatly reduce the operating and maintenance costs of artificial lakes.
By the way, the operating and maintenance cost.
Whether it is purifying water quality, repairing plank roads, removing weeds, pruning branches and leaves, it requires considerable funds.
Ye Han asked: "What is the current start-up capital of Nanshan Botanical Garden?"
system:"......"
Ye Han: "..."
Wouldn't this part of the funds be deducted from 1 million?
Ye Han took a deep breath and felt that his mood had calmed down was reviving again.
System: "Please pay the host reasonably to manage funds—"
To be continued...
