Chapter 221 Garden seedling salesman comes to your door
After the meal, Li Youran went back to the bedroom and took a nap, and didn't get up until three o'clock.
This kind of slow-paced, lazy and leisurely life was really not something he was used to. He stretched himself and went to the bathroom to wash his face.
"Ding-a-ling, ding-a-ling." The courtyard doorbell rang.
Who is this? He doesn't seem to know anyone in the community. Li Youran was a little confused, put on his shirt, and walked out of the bedroom.
Then I heard the sound of the door opening, followed by Sun Xiaoying talking to someone.
"Who is it?" Li Youran asked loudly as he went downstairs.
"Brother Youran, I sell flowers, plants and trees, and I got a lot of pictures." Sun Xiaoying's response came from outside.
Hey, this businessman is really well-informed now. The glasshouse and pool maker just came here in the morning, and the flower and tree businessman got the news very quickly.
But it's okay, I was planning to go to the nursery market, so it was delivered to my door, which saved me a lot of trouble.
He walked out of the house and saw a man in his thirties standing outside the door of the Iron Art Courtyard. He was of medium build and had a thin dark face. He was fanning himself with a sun hat used as a fan.
Sun Xiaoying stood in the door, holding a picture album and looking through it with interest.
"Hello, I'm from Parkson Landscape Gardening Company, and this is my business card." When the man saw Li Youran coming over, he quickly introduced himself and handed over a business card through the fence.
Li Youran took it and took a look. It read: Parkson Landscape Gardening Co., Ltd. Business Manager Shen Zhenlin
"Mr. Shen, come in and talk." Li Youran opened the small door for single entry on the courtyard door and let him in.
"Thank you. Our company specializes in villa courtyard greening, private garden landscape design and construction, roof garden greening and landscaping, lawn and green space maintenance, flower seedling sales, etc. Our company has its own large flower nursery base, planting various
We grow ornamental plants with a full range of varieties." Shen Zhenlin quickly introduced the company's situation.
Li Youran took a picture album from Sun Xiaoying's hand and flipped through a few pages.
"Are you new owners? I have been working in this community for a long time. Our company provides services for many residents' home garden projects, and our reputation is completely guaranteed. If you are worried, you can ask your neighbors about it.
." Shen Zhenlin continued to promote himself.
"Do you have any fruit saplings?" Li Youran handed the album back to Sun Xiaoying, raised her head and asked.
He doesn't want to bother with the garden any more and just maintains the status quo. Currently, he only cares about planting fruit trees.
"Fruit trees? Yes, yes. If you ask me, you have found the right person. In our nursery base, we have apple, jujube, apricot, pear, persimmon, kiwi, cherry, walnut, and chestnut saplings. I would say, this is
The other trees planted in the courtyard are actually just to look good, but that's all that matters as time goes by. Fruit trees are better, they can be green and ornamental, and they can also harvest fruits. Nowadays, the fruits sold in the market outside have all the peels.
Residual pesticides are all produced by using chemical fertilizers and ripening agents. The fruit looks bright on the outside, but actually tastes really bad. It’s better to grow some at home, which is delicious and safe. It looks like you have good taste.
, a person who knows how to live a good life. I have a catalog here, what kind do you need?" Shen Zhenlin used the eloquence of a salesman, then took out another picture album from the document bag, opened it and showed it to Li Youran.
Li Youran secretly laughed in his heart, this salesman was quite interesting.
He took the picture album and took a look. It was full of pictures of various fruit trees, and there were quite a lot of varieties.
"There are quite a few varieties here, and I don't know which one is better. How about you recommend a few that have more fruit and taste good." Li Youran didn't study the varieties of fruit trees, so he simply recommended them to the other party.
"Your garden is really big and beautifully designed. No problem, I'll recommend some of the best varieties to you." Shen Zhenlin praised the owner a few more words, and then began to recommend fruit trees to Li Youran, and also talked a lot about it.
What about the northern climate, water quality, soil characteristics, etc.
Li Youran was confused after hearing this. He asked the salesman to keep his story short and just introduce which variety was suitable.
Shen Zhenlin looked around in the garden, then took out a notebook and a pen, and took notes while talking.
He recommended tree species to Li Youran such as apple trees, jujube trees, apricot trees, pear trees, cherry trees, walnut trees, chestnut trees, etc., in small batches of various types, ranging from two to six plants each, and the seedlings are two to five years old.
The years vary, and mature varieties widely used in northern areas are selected.
In addition, at Li Youran's request, five plants each of Kyoho grape and Muscat grape were selected and prepared to be planted under the grape trellis.
At this time, Li Youran remembered the lack of citrus fruits in the fruit trees. He liked to eat these fruits very much, especially the navel oranges from the south. The pulp was juicy, slightly sour, sweet and delicious, which impressed him deeply.
So, he asked Salesman Shen to get some orange trees.
Shen Zhenlin thought for a while and reminded him that citrus tree species are more suitable for planting in the acidic soil of the south. The soil in the north is more alkaline and difficult to grow well. Some chemicals are also needed to improve the soil quality, which is more troublesome to operate.
Li Youran thought to himself that since he had space and stream water at his disposal, issues such as pH and soil and water adaptation were not a problem.
He insisted on planting some orange trees and said that he had a way to solve the above problem.
Shen Zhenlin nodded. Since the customer asked for it, what else could he say? Even if the company doesn't have it, it can be transferred from other places.
Finally, Li Youran also brought up the bamboo matter. He didn't bother the two masters and simply let him solve it together.
After hearing this, Shen Zhenlin said that based on their experience, only a few varieties such as Zaoyuan Bamboo and Huangganjing Bamboo can be planted in the north. The most outstanding feature is cold resistance and they can safely survive the long winter in the north. Regarding soil quality and irrigation
The requirements are not high and they are easy to maintain. Other bamboo varieties from the south are really not good, and they don’t have the goods on hand because there are no customers who want them.
Li Youran was slightly disappointed when he heard this. Originally, he wanted to get some moso bamboo and the like, but now it seems that it won't work. But then he thought about it, even the northern bamboo varieties can be made to grow in his own hands.
Strong and vigorous, it may not be worse than bamboo in the south in the end.
After he figured this out, he asked Shen Zhenlin to register a hundred morning garden bamboos and calculate the price together.
Shen Zhenlin was secretly happy. These things added up to several thousand dollars. Today's harvest was not small.
He took out his calculator, clicked on it, and quoted the total price.
Li Youran thought about it, and estimated that the difference was not much different. It might be slightly more expensive than buying it directly from the nursery. However, in this hot day, people are running around, and it is not easy to provide door-to-door service. It is normal for others to earn some hard-earned money.
.
So after a little pressure, the two parties agreed on the price.
After paying a deposit of several hundred yuan, Shen Zhenlin happily said that he would go back and prepare the goods immediately, and that they would be delivered in a few days. He also reassured the other party that the quality of the fruit seedlings could definitely be guaranteed. After all, he still wanted to do long-term business in this community. Again.
After chatting for a few words, he said goodbye and went out.
"Brother Youran, do we need to plant so many fruit trees?" Sun Xiaoying, who had not participated in the discussion, asked.
"Yeah, just watch, it won't be long before our garden will be filled with the fragrance of fruits." Li Youran looked at the courtyard with a longing look on his face.
