Chapter Forty-Nine: The Kao Contest
On December 29th, it was very cold.
Lin San was wrapped in a big cotton jacket, holding a box, and walked down the street with one foot deep and one foot shallow. He is a worker in a nearby county, his real name is not good, he is the third in the family, and over time he became Lin San.
He responded to the government's call and also raised two pots of flowers, and recently the family's money was tight, and it was approaching the end of the year, so he wanted to try his luck in the city.
After inquiring all the way, it was easy to touch Hongqi Street, and found that there was no legendary rubbing shoulders, but a flow of people went out.
"Big brother, this flower market is not open, why are they all out?" he stopped one and asked.
"There's an event over there, don't drag me!"
The other party pulled, busy flashing people. Lin San took another look, and the flower market seemed a little deserted, so he simply followed the crowd.
In a short time, we arrived at Stalin Street.
It's crowded here, crowded like a canned sardine, and the cold wind is blocked everywhere, but it's still a little warmer.
Lin San struggled to squeeze past a few people, but he couldn't grab it anymore, so he had to stand on the periphery and watch. I saw a small space vacated in front of the department store, and a person stood there, holding a microphone and saying:
"My name is Guo Fengyi, and many people may know me. I have been raising flowers for more than ten years, from penniless to small achievements, and now I have my own flower company, so to speak, I have personally watched how the career of Junzilan has come to this day step by step.
Now that the government has strongly supported it, Junzi Orchid has become the flower of the city, and it has to export to earn foreign exchange. When I see this environment, I am also in a surging mood, I have today, and I can't do without the help of many people...... In order to celebrate the Chinese New Year, to give back to my hometown and to make some contributions to the cause of Junzilan, I specially invited two industry experts to hold a Kao competition.
Starting today, for four days, everyone voluntarily signed up for the competition, and we made the judges. On the fourth day, we will compete together to determine the top three of the more high-quality Junzi orchids selected earlier.
The first place, the champion of flowers, that is, our Kao! I will personally reward 10,000 yuan!
The second place, the eye of the flower, the reward is 5,000 yuan!
The third place, exploring flowers in flowers, will be rewarded with 3,000 yuan ......"
Buzz!
Lin San couldn't hear what he was saying clearly, his ears were full of overwhelming noise, and he was also a blood rushing.
10,000 yuan, my monthly salary is 50 yuan, 500 a year, 20 years!
He only felt that his eyes were gray, and the voice seemed to fall to the ground, and the crowd seemed to be still for a moment, and then suddenly started, rushing forward like crazy.
He pushed the person in front of him, and he was pushed by the person behind him, and his feet were almost off the ground, and he also moved forward, and then came to a standstill.
I don't know what happened, Lin San actually felt a little hot, and ripped off the button of the big padded jacket, and it was still hot air that poured in.
After waiting for a long time, he finally came to the front of him, and was about to enter the gate, but was stopped by someone.
"Sign up?"
"Ahh
"Pay the registration fee of five yuan first. ”
"Five Dollars ?!!"
Lin San almost jumped up, five yuan was enough for himself to eat for several days, he wanted to leave, but when he saw that a few people next to him had already paid for the door, he also thought about it.
His own spending is good, in case he gets the champion, but the bonus is 10,000 yuan! He didn't realize any other value, so he just stared at this, was ruthless, and paid the money to enter the door.
After entering, there was a queue again, but there were many more railings, strung with ropes, artificially separated into three rows.
He followed the team in a daze, and when there were only a few people left in front of him, he saw a table with glasses on the head, and a name tag on the table.
"Class C, there is no qualification for the next round. ”
"What the hell? Lao Tzu has raised flowers for more than half a year, so you will give a C grade?"
A bald head jumped out and shouted loudly, "What kind of bullshit expert are you, you are deceived of money, Lao Tzu will stop playing, give me five yuan!"
The bald head is fierce and vicious, and he looks like he is going to fight at any time.
The young man was very sven and said with a smile: "We didn't force you to sign up, it's all voluntary." Since you are here to participate, I must be fair and impartial as a judge. If your flowers are not of sufficient grade, but I give them the first grade, then it is to deceive people and deceive money, which is unfair to others. ”
"That's right, what are you arguing about?"
"Roll the calves, others are still in line!"
"Get out!"
"Get out!"
As soon as everyone responded, the bald head was also cowardly, and left angrily with the pot of broken flowers.
Soon it was Lin San's turn.
"Hello, I'll look at your flowers. The young man laughed.
"Ahh
He hurriedly opened the box and took out a pot of Junzi Orchid.
"The warmth measures are well done, and I am a flower lover. ”
The young man first commented on the wooden box, and then carefully observed, "You are a big victory, how many years have you been raising?"
"For more than two years, it didn't bloom in the first year, and it only bloomed this year. Lin San's voice was shaking.
"The leaves are medium-wide, short and pointed, shiny and waxy, smooth to the touch, the veins are narrow, the convex is obvious, the flowers are large and bright red, and the quality ......is good."
He nodded, and took a strange piece of red paper and went up, "First class, you can participate in the next round, go over there to register first." ”
Lin San was still confused, holding the flowers to the table next to him, and one of Guo Fengyi's employees was responsible for registering and measuring them with a ruler.
"Lin Youdan, No. XX, XX Street, X County, a big victory, with 70 leaves and six flowers......"
"Put this away and come to the finals in a few days. ”
"Oooh!"
Lin San only figured out that the original first-class talents participated in the final selection, and then looked at the card, and two big words of professional popped up inexplicably.
He walked out of the hall, and the cold wind outside blew and he was much more sober, but then he was frightened by a few people who rushed up.
"Wait, wait, wait?"
"How many are you rated?"
"A, A, etc. ”
"Is there any red paper?"
"There is ......"
Lin San shook out the piece of red paper, and the eyes of those people lit up, and they immediately grabbed it.
"Five thousand, five thousand, sell me!"
"Roll the calf, you will give 5,000 when you are the first to wait for you? I will give 10,000, 10,000!"
"There is no sincerity at all, I will give 20,000!"
Twenty thousand!
He shook again, and immediately wanted to blurt out and betray. But somehow, the usually not very bright head suddenly turned, if I take a champion, oh no, even if I take a Tanhua, it will be more than 20,000 yuan, right?
"Don't sell it, don't sell it, I'll still choose Kao!"
Resisting the impulse, he walked down the steps and was stopped by another man.
"Hello, I'm a reporter from Junzilan Daily, have you just participated in the selection?"
"Uh, yes. ”
"Can you tell us how you feel?"
"Feel ......"
In just half a day's effort, Lin San had experienced a big battle that he had never seen in his life, and he eased down in his heart, and tried his best to calm down: "I feel very good, there are three experts in it, they are all kind and very capable, and they gave me a first-class." ”
"Can I see your flowers, then?"
"Okay. ”
He brought out the flowers again, and the people around him cheered and talked about it.
"This great victory is short, but the condition is really good, no wonder it is given the first class. ”
"The experts in it are quite reliable, mine was given the second grade, I am still not convinced, and they told me about it with meticulous white teeth. ”
"It's a young guy who showed me, it's called Liu, he's really professional, anyway, I'm convinced. ”
"Hey, mine is also an expert Liu, and he doesn't put on a show at all from the capital, and his attitude is super good. ”
"Click!"
The reporter captured this photo and took another one for Lin San.
He had taken two photos in half his life, and he was at a loss and extremely stiff. After the reporter left, Lin San was not in a hurry to go home, and simply wandered around the mall to see what else was lively.
............
"I'm a little more experienced than some people, but I'm still a newcomer compared to a lot of old-timers. But since this Kao contest was held, I will be a judge with a thick face.
Let me introduce the two next to me, who should all know each other, Mr. Yang Zonghai. ”
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
The people below applauded one after another, and Yang Zonghai was also a well-known flower farmer, and was pulled over by Guo Fengyi to fill the scene.
"This is Mr. Liu Qinghou, don't look at his young age, he has a lot of knowledge, I specially invited him from the capital. ”
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
Everyone didn't know each other before, but now they recognize it, and many people have been commented.
Guo Fengyi is worthy of being a character, the first time to hold an event, but he adapted very well, "More than 300 people signed up this morning, and it will continue in the afternoon." We didn't have anything to do, so we took the opportunity of the lunch break to give a small lecture on how to judge the quality of Junzilan. ”
In the top ten flower markets in Spring City, 400,000 people are buying and selling flowers every day, but there has never been such an opportunity, and I will find a few experts to give you lectures.
Everyone boarded up the first floor, and if they couldn't stand, they crowded outside, leaning against the big glass to listen. Men, women, and children, all silent, their faces full of suppressed fanaticism and madness.
Looking at this scene, Rao is Guo Fengyi has seen the wind and waves, and he can't help but feel excited.
Director Liu is right, the market looks booming, but it is scattered and lacks organization. Everyone knows that good flowers sell high and bad flowers sell low, but how to evaluate good and bad? Who has the final say?
He didn't fully comprehend the proposal when he accepted it, but now he understands: the first to pick the lead is the one who has the final say!
(There is also a ...... at night )
