porridge for two

Time always slips away inadvertently, and in a blink of an eye, the semester exam is over, and the sophomore study is also over.

In the few days before the exam, Xie Xiuping was reviewing the exam while noticing that there were no suitable part-time jobs nearby.

It was Friday afternoon, Xie Xiuping had finished taking a professional course, and Su Zeyu came to pick him up, planning to go back to Su's house directly from the Agricultural University together.

The two came out from the back door of the Agricultural University, and were about to pass the overpass to take the bus across the road, when they saw a piece of A4 paper on the wall next to the school gate.

Black handwritten artistic font, "Flower shop part-time job in summer vacation, interested parties talk face to face - hand".

This is a part-time job advertisement, and the hand behind the advertisement is pointing in the direction of the Nongda flower market.

Xie Xiuping looked at the A4 paper, then looked at the three one-story bungalows in the Agricultural University Flower Market, hesitated for a while, and then pulled Su Zeyu and walked over.

"Excuse me, is your family still recruiting part-time jobs?" Xie Xiuping approached and saw a courtyard dam three or four meters wide in front of the bungalow, and a woman was arranging flower baskets.

"The boss is inside, why don't you ask her!" The woman raised her head, glanced at Xie Xiuping and Su Zeyu, and pointed to the room on the far right.

"Sister, is your family looking for a part-time job?"

There is a table in the room, and various packaging bags are placed on the shelf behind the table, and there are many dried flowers in vases next to it.A 28-nine-year-old woman was clearing the table.

"We are recruiting! Are you a student of the Agricultural University? Which major do you study and how old are you?" the man asked.

"I'm from Agricultural University, majoring in gardening, and I'm about to be a junior." Xie Xiuping replied.

"Hmm! Although the basic knowledge of your major is not very useful, it is still interlinked. You should get started quickly! Have you ever had a part-time job in this field before?"

"no!"

"Do you know how to arrange flowers? Your design aesthetics should be different!"

"I've taken a flower arrangement class, and I've done homework a few times, but I still bought the flower materials from your house! I haven't done much flower arrangement, it's all on paper!"

"In the middle room, there are flowers and leaves, and the flower mud is at the door, you can just insert it and have a look!"

It's not easy to be a part-time job. You have to have two brushes to do anything these days, Su Zeyu complained.

Xie Xiuping and Su Zeyu came out, Xie Xiuping went to find materials by himself, Su Zeyu followed, the boss ignored them, and tidied up his desk and the shelves behind him.

After a few minutes, Xie Xiuping handed in his homework and stepped into the room on the right, feeling uneasy that success or failure could be determined with one stroke.

A yellow-green plate, shaped like a fish plate at home, with two leaves in the middle of the plate, one horizontally like a boat, the other upright like a sail, behind which are a few yellow-green palm leaves leaning against the sides of the sail, The color matches the plate, and then there are three gradually rising anthuriums, and there are a few kidney ferns behind it, so that it will not appear top-heavy.

"I wish the boss a prosperous business and smooth sailing." Xie Xiuping put the flowers on the table and said to the boss.

"Hey, you dolls now have such sweet mouths! Let me borrow your good words! It's been a long time since you finished the exam, come here after the exam!"

The boss said that he seemed to be an old man in his decades.

"There is another subject next Monday. Come next Tuesday. Can he come?" Xie Xiuping pointed to Su Zeyu and asked.

"I've only seen buy one get one free, but I haven't seen one that offers one get one free!" The boss looked at the two handsome men in front of him with a smile.

The two struggled with the boss for a long time, but the boss couldn't take it anymore, so he agreed, saying that they would come together for a two-day internship, and stay if possible, so she could just go out and play.

"Well, we won't make it to the first day of school. We can only go to the 28th of the [-]th. We have to go to the countryside before school starts."

"I'm afraid it's not recruitment, but two ancestors! Okay! Okay! Let's talk!" The boss estimated the time, and there was no problem at all, so he agreed.

The boss said that this store was opened with her and a friend. The girl who opened the store went back to her hometown to get married, and it would take a month to do wine, honeymoon and so on. The lady Tang who arranged flowers at the door was a helper they hired.

Their business is usually very good, and they are afraid that they will be overwhelmed if there is one less person, so they just hired a part-time job.

After talking, the two left and went back. Before going back to Su's house, they went to the architectural bookstore.

Why is it an architectural bookstore, because Xie Xiuping visited several bookstores in Qingzhou City before, and found that there are many books on engineering design and agronomy in the architectural bookstore.

At the beginning, it was recommended by the teacher because I couldn't find a reference book on their profession.

The two bought three related books in the bookstore, one on flower arrangement and ornamental plants, one on potted plants and landscaping, and one book was some basic knowledge.

In fact, Xie Xiuping's major also involves these aspects, but it is biased towards design, and the knowledge in this aspect is not detailed.

As for Su Zeyu, he is just a madman who comes to buy flowers but doesn't know what to buy, how can he sell flowers.So go back and read the book.

After eleven o'clock in the evening, the two of them were still reading in the small study.

"How's it going?"

"I've read this book for a while, but I can't remember it!"

"You don't need to memorize all of them! You just go through them roughly, and then pick out the ones you saw in the flower shop in the afternoon, and remember those first!"

"There are only a few types of flowers that are commonly used in flower shops. If you remember all of them, you may go crazy! You see, we learn ornamental plants. Who can remember all the plants? Just remember some commonly used and useful ones. The regional identification is almost the same."

"Okay! Let me take a look again! I'm rushing ducks to the shelves. It's hard for me because of you. My brain cells are exhausted. Give me a reward!"

Su Zeyu snorted suddenly, why is a big man being coquettish!

"Come on, stick your head out, I'll give you a backlash!"

Xie Xiuping pulled Su Zeyu's head with both hands, tapped on his forehead, then tapped on his lips, pushed him back, and said:

"Brother, keep working hard! I am optimistic about you!"

"..."

"Can you tell me your pseudonym?"

"how about yours?"

"It's the language of flowers!"

"Coincidentally, mine is too!"

"Grass of the dog's tail: Perseverance, unknown, difficult love, secret love. So I will weave it into a ring and put it around you, and one ring will last forever!"

"Blue Iris: Destined and broken passion, exquisite beauty, but fragile and perishable. It's very similar to me! Personality, life experience, they are all similar!"

"Beautiful, noble and elegant, and ingenious. Although it is a word to describe girls, I still want to describe you. As long as I have the firm protection of the dogtail grass, I will never let you be fragile and perishable!"

"Well! Waiting for you to change my fate! I won't let you love so hard and humble!"

When the two are together, the magnetic field changes, and the original track deviates, so the fate changes and moves in a good direction.

……

In the past few days, the two of them have been trying to catch up on the knowledge of florists. Except for Xie Xiuping who has to review the books for the exam on Monday, they are also gnawing at the few books they bought, trying to write down all the common flowers in Qingzhou.

I also looked at the different flower baskets needed for various occasions, how to use materials for the flower baskets, and how to cut and insert them.

After Xie Xiuping finished the exam on Monday, the two went to the flower shop to study in advance before returning to Su's house.

If there is no special situation in the flower shop, the opening time is nine o'clock, and the closing time is eight o'clock in the evening.

So if Su's father and Su's mother are at home, they will go to Su's house, and usually stay in the happy community.

After two days of training and practice, the two of them were on their way. Although Su Zeyu was a little inferior, he didn't know as much as he did at the beginning.

The boss's surname is Gao, and Xie Xiuping called her Miss Gao.Sister Gao led the two of them to explain the situation of the three houses and the backyard one last time. She said that Mrs. Tang knew all the flower baskets that are commonly used. If she had any questions, she would call them, and then she left in peace.

In the left room are potted plants such as succulents, green radish, asparagus, and anthurium. In the corner are neatly piled up some oddly shaped artistic flower pots, with flower fertilizer and soil beside them.

In the center are fresh flower arrangements, leaves to match the flowers, vases and vases.

In the right room are all kinds of wrapping paper and artificial flowers. In the backyard are some slightly larger potted plants, such as the one-meter-high fortune tree that companies and stores love to display.

Sister Gao told the two of them all the prices and where to get all kinds of materials if they are in short supply. She just needs to report the name of the florist, and she will say hello in advance.

All kinds of packaging materials are obtained from the wholesale market, flower pots and vases are obtained from the flower and bird market, and dried flowers and many fresh cut flowers are directly sent by Yunnan.

Other fresh cut flowers, leaves, and potted plants are taken from Yanxia Farm, a two-hour drive from Jushi.

If you replenish the goods, you can directly deliver the goods to your door, and you can go to the farm to select and confirm the newly acquired varieties.

This flower shop is big, the business is good, and it has been in business for a long time. The supply of goods in all aspects is very stable.

So the two began their days as office workers.

In the morning, the two went to Qingda University for a run, came back to eat breakfast at home, cooked Chinese food, took it to the flower shop for lunch, and went back to make dinner after work.

The two of them enjoyed their ordinary and ordinary days.

It is said that this period of time is the off-season, but the business of the flower shop is still very good.

Some materials needed to be supplemented, so the two contacted the merchants to let them deliver the goods. Some were really curious, so they went to pick them up by themselves, and walked around, such as Yanxia Farm.

This afternoon, Xie Xiuping and the others asked Tang Niangniang to watch the store, and Su Zeyu drove to Yanxia Farm.Because Sister Gao said hello before, when the two arrived, a technician came to receive them.

Yanxia Farm occupies a large area, and the terrain here is relatively flat.The car drove to the gate of the farm, and it took more than ten minutes to drive to the office of the farm.

There are mainly greenhouses near the office. In the greenhouses are potted plants that are common in flower and bird markets, such as dill, Clivia, and Cymbidium, and further away are various seedlings of different sizes.

The two followed the master to visit several greenhouses, picked some flowers of this season, and visited their high-tech planting;

I visited a few more areas where the fruits were ripe, grape fields, watermelon fields, and pomegranate fields. I bought some more fruits and drove away.

The selected goods will be delivered by Yanxia Farm the next day.

The two drove around the farm, and couldn't help but sigh at the generosity of Boss Yanxia. Such a large land, so many seedlings, and so many sheds require a lot of investment, and they can make a lot of money.
