Chapter 76: The reproduction of the flower

"The Great Sage openly boycotted art, and the Ministry of Education has tightened its control in this regard. Fortunately, Senior does not plan to work in the Ministry of Education in the future.

When you graduate and become a freelance architect, you won't have to worry about the Council of Churches anymore. Our Xumi people will definitely prefer beautiful houses, and your talent will be put to good use then." Harold said.

"That's true, thank you Harold."

Kavi was just complaining casually and didn't expect to get any useful advice, but he unexpectedly received some comforting words from Haroldt, which made him feel particularly happy.

He put the hammer aside, spread out two drawings on the workbench, and showed Harold his latest research results and designs.

"These are the twenty tricycle parking spots I have decided on. These are the tricycle parking spots I designed based on the topography of Xumi City."

Kavi pointed at the two pictures and introduced them to Harold with great excitement.

Harold looked at it carefully. Because it was an initial experiment, the road section was chosen to be wider than 30 meters. The parking spot was conservatively chosen near the House of the Holy Office. The parking station was divided into parking areas, and each tricycle was separated by a barrier. Kavi also designed awnings and signs for them to facilitate public identification.

This is also because Xumi is warm and rainy, and without a rain shelter, the tricycle will easily rust and damage.

"I divided the route for shared tricycles into three areas, with no overlap between them, and deployed red, blue and green tricycles respectively.

If the response is good, the House of Representatives will approve us to mark parking spots in more places. Alas, there are only 20 spots in total, and some of them are quite far apart. Will some people have trouble finding a parking spot?

If the road is renovated and the road condition is good enough, and enough vehicles are put on the road, we don’t need to classify the tricycles, and everyone can park anywhere they want. But to achieve this goal, at least 2,000 parking spots must be put on the road to barely meet everyone’s needs.”

Kavi is also worried that residents will not be able to adapt to the rules of using "shared tricycles".

“It’s always like this when a new project is just starting out. We need to give everyone a period of adaptation, which also lays the foundation for the popularization of shared tricycles in the future.

Under the influence of what they see and hear, even residents who are temporarily unable to enjoy the convenience brought by tricycles due to geographical restrictions can first learn the rules of its use. The seniors only need to consider how to make the tricycles more beautiful and sturdy. "Harold is very optimistic.

He had experience in his previous life and had witnessed how several shared bicycle companies went bankrupt due to various unexpected reasons, so when he initially discussed this topic with Kawi, Seno and others, he took these factors into consideration in advance.

Moreover, the Ministry of Education has approved the funding, and they are conducting a cautious small-scale trial, so nothing major should go wrong. Even if something does go wrong, the loss will not be too great.

Kavi smiled and nodded. "Yes, hey, how did you guess that I improved the car model, and it is indeed much more beautiful than before? Did you sneak into my studio yesterday to take a look at my drawings?"

Kavi said as he spread out the new tricycle design drawings on the table.

Harold was a little surprised when he saw the picture on the drawing. Kavi added fenders, a windshield, a roof, etc. to the tricycle, which looked a bit like a simple car, but the power system was still human-powered, and there were no doors on both sides.

"What a great design! This way residents don't have to worry about themselves and the fruits and vegetables in their cars getting damaged by the rain." Haroldt couldn't help but sigh that when it comes to benefiting the people, Kavi, a native Xumi man, is indeed more thoughtful.

"But this will increase the price of the vehicle. Do you have enough money, senior?" Harold asked.

Kavi was originally very pleased with the compliment from his junior, as this was the final version he decided on after drawing more than twenty sketches. He had carefully considered the size of the wheels and the angle of inclination of the windshield. Unfortunately, Elhaisen knew nothing about aesthetics, and he waited for three days before he got the opportunity to showcase his talent in front of Haroldt.

But when it comes to money, he feels like he's been hit on the head.

"...Of course, it may not have been enough originally, but now the Ministry of Education has allocated funds to us, how can it not be enough? You underestimate our family background!" Kavi said stiffly.

There are only 150 shared tricycles in operation now, so he is fully capable of bearing the extra costs. But if the number increases in the future...it doesn't matter. When the project enters the next stage, he can still apply for funding from the college. Even if the college is unwilling to allocate funds, he can still earn enough money before that.

"Senior, please don't exclude me. Didn't you include my name when you submitted your research project?" Harold asked in a puzzled manner.

"How could that be? I wrote down the whole cause and effect of the incident, including the origin of the original blueprint. However, the Council of Ordinances did not make this matter public. Instead, they announced that the blueprint was the invention of a certain predecessor of the Miaolun School and was discovered accidentally by the Sage's Assistant when he was sorting out ancient documents." Speaking of this, Kavi's tone was rarely tinged with indignation.

"This is clearly your achievement, but the Council of Magistrates actually took it for themselves! You really can't overestimate them at all. They only funded this project because they saw the fame it can bring, right?" Kavi was indignant, and then he comforted Harold.

"Although it's annoying, don't worry, as long as your name is on the project report, the Ministry of Education will acknowledge your contribution to the project. It will be no problem for you to include this project on your resume in the future."

Harold nodded with a smile: "Don't worry, senior, I still want to stay in the Academy of Teaching as a tutor in the future. I just want the title of a project participant, and other things will not be of much help to me.

So in order to achieve this goal, I want to make this topic more popular. Senior, can you let me contribute money? "Sponsor of the shared tricycle project", well... this title is not bad. I wonder if the Fatwa will include it in my personal archive."

"If the project is a great success, it is very likely that 80% of the residents of Xumi City will praise it."

Kavi first answered the last question raised by Harold. He hesitated for a moment about asking Harold to fund the project, but thinking about Harold's goal of becoming a mentor and then thinking about the sack of Mora he saw yesterday, he agreed to the proposal.

"That may cost you money, but you must plan your funds well. Use that money sparingly. You don't know what the future will be like, so don't spend it all on a whim," said Kavi.

Harold nodded, but he still had an idea of ​​how much money he would get in the future. Unless Dolly suddenly allowed a time traveler to travel through time, the money he would get every month would only increase.

Senior Kavi, you are the one who spends all the money in a fit of rage, Harold thought helplessly.

After saying goodbye to Kavi and Elhaisen, Harold returned to his laboratory to verify a hypothesis.

After guessing that the Prankster would produce pollen, he began to consider whether he was influenced by his fixed mindset. He initially believed that the Prankster had no stamens, only an unknown spherical part in the corolla that could produce Prankster nectar, and that it was an elemental plant life form, so it should reproduce asexually like slimes.

But he has sliced ​​all the parts of the Pianhua that can be sliced, and tried various methods such as leaf cuttings, cuttings, and grafting, but he has never been able to cultivate a new Pianhua.

But what if the flower reproduces sexually? If there is pollen, then there should be stamens and pistils, right?

Haroldt thought that he had not touched the head of the Deceptive Flower yet. Because elemental plant life forms can die, he was worried about losing the precious experimental subject, so he had been slicing from small pieces to large pieces, step by step. But he still had not cut open the head of the Deceptive Flower.

But even without this guess, his next experimental subject would be the head of the flower. If you think about it carefully, that position is actually the receptacle, right? It just has eyes, so it instinctively thinks that it is the head, the vital part, and must be left for the last study.

It's all because of the fixed mindset. Harold couldn't help but hold his forehead.

At the same time, he couldn't help but think, if the stamens and pistils were really deceiving the flower's brain, wouldn't that be the real meaning of the genitals entering the brain?
