"Eh... I didn't even grow it, so what's so great about that?" Manager Fang felt embarrassed by the praise.

Gu Yin turned sideways to look at Manager Fang and said seriously, "You can't say that. People who can take the first step, no matter what the final result is. Your innovative spirit of daring to try new things has surpassed most people. This is very admirable."

The first person to try something new needs not only courage but also guts.

Manager Fang didn't expect Gu Yin to say this to him seriously. He was moved and felt that his previous efforts were not in vain.

Manager Fang sighed for a while, then sincerely bowed to Gu Yin and said, "Thank you for your recognition, Miss."

Gu Yin waved her hand and continued walking forward, asking Manager Fang, "Manager Fang, I wonder what vegetables you planted in the greenhouse?"

"I planted Chinese cabbage and chrysanthemum." Hearing Gu Yin asking about the varieties of vegetables, Manager Fang thought that the vegetable varieties were not selected properly, and couldn't help but ask Gu Yin for confirmation, "Could it be that the varieties of vegetables in the greenhouse are also related to the variety?"

Gu Yin smiled faintly and replied softly: "It is related, but it is not a big problem. The two types you chose are fine."

"What other problems are there?" Manager Fang asked. He had been unwilling to accept the failure of greenhouse vegetable planting, and always felt that he had missed something. He tried several more times, but all ended in failure, so he had to give up. Now looking at Gu Yin's expression, it seemed that she knew where the problem was. How could Manager Fang bear it?

"Did you light the greenhouse when you were growing the crops?"

Manager Fang shook his head: "No. Could this be the problem?"

Who would have thought of lighting a lamp? Oil lamps are so expensive. Even if the master is rich, he would not dare to make one.

"Well, you see, vegetables growing in the field need water and fertilizer, and they also get sunlight during the day." Gu Yin explained softly, "You planted the seeds in a greenhouse, which blocks the sunlight. The seedlings can't get sunlight during their growth, so they can't photosynthesize and naturally can't grow."

"So that's it." Manager Fang suddenly realized. He didn't understand what photosynthesis was, but he understood that it couldn't grow. Manager Fang felt that he had mastered the trick and wanted to try it again.

"But there is another condition besides this. Did you ventilate the greenhouse you built?" Gu Yin turned around and glanced at Manager Fang.

"If it's ventilated, it will be cold inside the greenhouse." The temperature had been raised with great difficulty, so Manager Fang was naturally reluctant to let the heat inside dissipate.

"But if there is no ventilation, the plants won't be able to breathe, and that won't work either." Gu Yin changed the way he put it.

"Plants also need to breathe?" Manager Fang was surprised.

"Nature is like a person needs to breathe. If a person is locked in a closed space for a long time, will he suffocate? The same is true for plants."

"Oh..." Manager Fang listened carefully, "But now that it's ventilated, how can the greenhouse stay warm? It will become cold inside once the cold wind blows."

“It sounds difficult to achieve both ventilation and warmth, but it’s actually not as difficult as you think.”

Before they knew it, they had arrived in front of the yard. There was already a pile of firewood under the eaves, and some dried vegetables and seeds were hung under the beams.

Gu Yin pointed to the back of the yard and said to Manager Fang, "Look, if we build a shed at the back of the yard, closer to the kitchen, can we use the smoke from cooking in the kitchen to keep warm?"

"Smoke?" Manager Fang was stunned. "Smoke is indeed hot, but..."

Manager Fang frowned, and then seemed to think of something...

Gu Yin looked at him with anticipation in her eyes.

"Miss, what you mean is that the greenhouse is built in two layers, and the smoke produced by the kitchen is directly passed into the mezzanine to be used for heating?"

"Yes! Then add a few more layers of curtains on one side of the greenhouse. The wind outside will be heated by each layer, and by the time it reaches the vegetable shed, it will no longer be cold."

Gu Yin smiled brightly. It would be much easier to have a manager who was good at thinking. In this way, he could explore many things on his own in the future, and she only needed to mention any ideas when she thought of them.

It seems that she can basically be the boss of Zhuangzi's affairs in the future. Gu Yin slightly raised her little face, feeling the cool breeze of winter, and felt relaxed all over.

"Well... we will always have a fire in the kitchen, but we will mainly have to light a fire outside the greenhouse for heating. I believe Manager Fang has tried this before." After a while, Gu Yin added, "If we set the curtain entrance near the fire pit, will the air flow in and out be less afraid of the cold?"

Manager Fang nodded repeatedly after hearing this. He didn't expect that the young lady had even thought of these details. It was simply... He didn't know what to say.

The two discussed other details. Manager Fang openly brought up his previous failed experience as an example. He forgot for a moment that the girl in front of him was his master. He pulled Gu Yin aside and asked a series of questions that he had accumulated.

Gu Yin patiently answered them one by one.

Manager Fang was shocked at first by Gu Yin's broad knowledge, but later on he got used to it, as if there was nothing that Gu Yin didn't know.

Just when Manager Fang had finished asking all the questions he needed to ask, Gu Yin suddenly remembered that she had forgotten something: "Oh, Manager Fang, I just forgot one thing. There are actually two kinds of vegetables that can be grown without light."

Manager Fang was shocked and asked, "What dish?"

"Bean sprouts and leeks." Gu Yin said directly, and then carefully taught Manager Fang how to germinate bean sprouts and how to grow leeks.

Manager Fang was full of gratitude. He really made a lot of money today. He could grow vegetables in winter. When he grows them, he will definitely be the best in Daji Dynasty. All these methods were taught to him by the young lady.

The lady taught him everything without reservation!

Such a master deserves his wholehearted support.

The main purpose of Gu Yin's visit to Zhuangzi this time was to ask Manager Fang to grow greenhouse vegetables. Now that things had been explained clearly and there was nothing else to do in Zhuangzi, Gu Yin planned to go home.

Manager Fang looked at Gu Yin walking away in the carriage with a look of emotion on his face.

However, Gu Yin was drowsy in the carriage. It was really hard to do brain work. Although she talked about things with Manager Fang in a very logical way, she didn't know that these were all the results of her step-by-step deduction based on the theoretical knowledge she learned in the future and the current situation of Daji Dynasty.

"Miss, take a rest if you are tired." Zhenzhu felt distressed when she saw Gu Yin looking tired. She tidied the bedding and helped Gu Yin lie down.

Gu Yin didn't want to use her brain at all at this moment, and just let Zhenzhu tell her to do whatever she wanted.

Lying in the thick and soft bedding, the rocking of the carriage seemed like a cradle, and Gu Yin soon fell asleep.
