In the end, she was surprised to find that there weren’t bees around the tree. Instead, there were some pests.
“Wow!”
An even more shocking scene appeared before her eyes.
As Tingting was looking at the flowers, she was surprised to see them slowly closing up their petals and devouring the insects.
In about fifteen minutes, the flowers bloomed again, but there were no traces of insects inside.
From the looks of it, the insects must have been completely consumed by the tree and became its nutrients.
Although there were many insects around, what was shocking was that this kind of plant seemed to be able to eat insects all the time.
If Ye Heng was here, he would tell her with a smile that there were fewer insects today than before.
“Am I seeing things? How can there be such a big plant that eats insects?” All the netizens were stunned.
In the live broadcast room, they were shocked to see countless insects being attracted over to the tree and eaten up by it.
In another half an hour, there were hundreds or even thousands of insects that were all eaten up by the tree.
To be honest, the tree’s efficiency of killing the insects was quite high and it was even more powerful than insecticides.
“Zhao Yao, what kind of plant is this?”
Tingting was very surprised.
“When this plant first appeared, I was also alarmed by it.”
“Its name is the insect catcher tree. It’s the latest product developed by our company to specifically fight against these pests.”
“It’s also available on our official website now.”
“However, the one on the official website is a little shorter than the one you’re seeing now. It can be planted in a pot.”
“Even so, its ability to catch insects is also very powerful.”
Zhao Yao said with a smile.
“This is an eye-opener.”
“I didn’t expect the products cultivated in Cosmic Planting to be so powerful.”
“Alright, brothers, my hand speed is faster, I’ve already bought it.”
“Wait for me, I have to get off work too. This way, I won’t have to worry about being bitten by mosquitoes in the summer.”
“Why do I feel like this is very similar to raising a pet?”
When they saw this amazing tree through the live broadcast room, the netizens became even more excited and were full of praise for it.
Everyone was tempted and eager to buy such a plant to put it at home and see the effects of its insect catching ability.
Especially the people who had already bought super lettuce before.
They had been gnashing their teeth in anger due to the appearance of those pesky insects earlier on.
Now that there was a solution to solve their problems, how could they not be happy?
In addition, after learning more about the plant and seeing the flowers in bloom through the live broadcast room, they were taken away by its aesthetics.
Furthermore, there was the alluring fragrance from the flowers.
In an instant, the orders via the official website for the Cosmic Planting flagship store kept on increasing.
Within 10 minutes, there were already 300,000 sales.
There was also a certain amount of sales for the super lettuce.
The entire store’s funds kept increasing.
After all, many of the products from Cosmic Planting had already been sold.
Now, in China, through word of mouth and various social media platforms, almost everyone knew about Cosmic Planting.
If it weren’t for some middle-aged and elderly people who did not know how to use their phones to do online shopping, the sales for Cosmic Planting flagship store would have increased by a lot.
Based on China’s current population of 1.4 billion, to ensure the demand of the entire population was met, it would have to be in the billions.
Fortunately, the products that were sold in Cosmic Planting only had a growth cycle of about a year.
Therefore, they could guarantee the daily sales quota after that.
Even their profits could be guaranteed.
Although this flagship store made a lot of money, it also hurt some people’s interests to a certain extent.
For example, people who specialized in growing vegetables for a living.
Of course, the most important thing was that it had dealt a blow to the contractors who sold vegetables.
Just the amount of land and plants they had could not meet the needs of China.
Not to mention, they also needed to meet the needs of the entire world.
“Zhao Yao, now that you think about it, if our company moves later, what would be the best land option to grow our plants?”
“After all, the current land is not enough for us for development purposes.”
Ye Heng looked at his general manager, Zhao Yao.
As for Zhao Yao, she looked calm and collected. She thought for a while and said, “In my opinion, it still depends on the amount of land we need now.”
“50,000 mu of land,” Ye Heng said decisively.
“That much!”
Zhao Yao was shocked.
“Also, I’m not using this land as a lease.”
“My idea is to buy them directly.”
Ye Heng said indifferently which made Zhao Yao stunned.
“You’re simply daydreaming. Even if the sales of your products are very good recently and our company has also obtained a lot of funds, but with so much land, if we buy it, it would at least cost several billion.”
“I don’t think our province would allow us to buy so much land.”
“The key problem is, even if they are willing to sell it to us, we can’t afford it.”
Zhao Yao felt helpless when she said this.
“We don’t need expensive soil and fertile land.”
“We only need some cheap land.”
“After all, the plants we grow don’t have any requirements for soil.”
“Yes, yes, yes. If you want cheap land, it’s very simple.”
“Isn’t there a great desert? You can go directly to the country to buy it. Maybe they will sell it to you for less than one billion.”
Zhao Yao said with a smile, obviously joking.
“The Gobi Desert, and the desert,” After hearing this, Ye Heng’s eyes lit up.
“Hmm, do you think this is feasible?” Zhao Yao looked at Ye Heng.
“You’re right. After all, for us, only the Gobi Desert can solve our needs now.”
“Moreover, if we can apply to buy land from the country in the name of greening, we can also save a lot of money.”
Ye Heng slapped his thigh and laughed.
“Even so, have you ever considered that the employees might not be willing to work in the desert with you?”
Zhao Yao thought about this possibility.
“You’re right. But I won’t give up the plantation in our city. I’ll just treat it as a branch.”
“We’ll go directly to the desert to carry out the next step of development.”
“I believe that with the right salary, there will be people willing to work in the desert.”
Ye Heng was very serious about this.
In Ye Heng’s opinion, it was not difficult to turn the desert into a green field.
After all, he still had this system.
Not to mention, what was most needed in a desert environment was drought tolerance.
As long as he used the system, he could easily fuse characteristics so that the plants could become tolerant to drought.
And the plants that he developed were more drought tolerant than cacti..
