Chapter Eighty-Three: The Sunflower Parrot

Since you are here, you can't help but appreciate these exhibits, flowers and birds. From ancient times to the present, it has been a favorite fun for Chinese, especially in the Qing Dynasty, a large group of idle Eight Banners children always want to have some fun.

Yang Fan can be regarded as an eye-opener, some time ago, Xu Ping sighed that sometimes human life is not as precious as a dog. How would he feel if he saw a plant and was shouted hundreds of thousands, or even millions?

For example, the golden cinnamon grows very peculiarly, the branches and trunks are twisted, quite like the word "longevity", and it was directly praised by people for more than five million, which is really crazy.

Of course, Yang Fan also knows that it is not easy for a tree to grow like this, especially without the influence of human factors, it is definitely the only one in the world. Scarcity is expensive, and it is also applicable in the flower and bird market.

After walking with Qi Lao and them for a while, everyone went their separate ways. Although the flower and bird exhibition lasts for three days, they usually only visit for one day, mainly to see if there are any eye-catching antiques and whether they can pick up any leaks. Perhaps, a flower pot is an antique, and if you buy the whole pot of flowers quietly, you will earn an antique, which is very cost-effective.

"I'll be in touch at noon and we'll go to dinner together. Qi Lao said.

Yang Fan was about to refuse, but another old man explained: "Don't be busy refusing, eating with a group of old men with us is definitely not as beautiful and delicious as with beautiful women, but there is a century-old shop near here, which is very authentic, and it is definitely a loss not to taste it." ”

Hearing this, Yang Fan swallowed those words and nodded: "Okay, then I'll contact you at eleven o'clock." ”

These old guys all say authentic, which means that the store is really worth recommending. With money, of course you need to enjoy it, Yang Fan is not a pedantic person, let alone a miser, life should be enjoyed.

In the final analysis, working so hard to make money is nothing more than wanting to live better and eat better, and by the way, let the people around you live better, it's as simple as that.

In fact, the reason why Qi Lao and the others gathered at noon was nothing more than to take advantage of the meal time to show off their gains and communicate, which was their real purpose.

When they live to their age, they can do without money and beauty, but they are very keen on face and honor, and if they can't hang up their old faces, they will be annoyed and angry.

After everyone separated, Yang Fan did not walk away immediately, but continued to pay attention to those flowers and strange birds.

From more than 10 pieces or dozens of pieces of flowers in a pot that attract many citizens to buy, to more than 100,000 or even hundreds of thousands of noble products, the grades are distinct, and each has its own market.

Exotic flowers and plants such as fiery red tulips and water lilies are dazzling.

Flaming red tulips are said to be produced in only one place in the world, and that is the Netherlands. In the past, a rare flaming red striped tulip bulb on a white background was worth a mansion, which shows how rare it is.

"This flaming red tulip doesn't grow strange enough, otherwise it wouldn't be at this price. Someone commented.

Not all flaming tulips are worth that much, just as not all Yankees are so rich, and Russians are very short.

Whether it's worth a lot of money depends on how well a flower looks. If it is strange enough, the most ordinary chrysanthemum can soar by hundreds of thousands, and it is not without such cases.

"How can the best show up every time? The person next to him smiled wryly.

And the water lily, also known as the purple water lily, is the most delicate flower in Grandia. The flower blooms only seven days a year, and the fire lotus has purple petals on the outside with some golden tentacles in the middle, and a budding stamen inside that only opens a moment before it withers. Some people say that the tentacles of the fire lotus are to protect the stamens from sleeping quietly, so they are called water fire lotus.

And birds are the same, from lovesick birds for dozens of dollars a pair, to sunflower cockatoos for thousands of yuan, and then to purple and blue macaws for two or three hundred thousand, which is staggering.

Of course, neither the purple and blue macaws nor the sunflower cockatoos here are wild. Both birds are protected animals, especially the sunflower cockatoos, and I heard that there are only double digits left in the wild.

"Sunflower cockatoets, do you want to pick a pair to raise back?" the boss sold.

This kind of bird, like the lovesick bird, is best to get it back in pairs. In fact, he did not disclose that it is not easy to breed this bird in captivity, unless you can buy a pair of sunflower parrots that are already in harmony, otherwise the male will often attack the female.

Yang Fan looked at it, the body is a little big, at least a big cage must be prepared, right? The appearance is quite beautiful, and Yang Fan could still hear one of them say something just now.

Their body feathers are mainly white, snow-white and beautiful, with yellow crown feathers on the top of their heads, and when angry, they will erect their crowns in a fan-like shape, like a blooming sunflower.

However, it is a pity that Yang Fan has no plans to raise birds for the time being. There is a dog and a sable at home, and they can't take care of it.

"This bird has a very long life, normally speaking, it can live for more than 40 years, and it will not die so quickly. The boss continued.

The person next to him rolled his eyes, your subconscious meaning is that something abnormal will happen! Normal can live for so long, and if it is abnormal, it may soar.

"Can't you raise one?" someone asked.

He had heard that the male bird of this kind often attacked the female bird, and if the cage was too small, the female bird would have nowhere to hide and would usually be bullied to death.

"Well, why not? Raise only one, they are often close to their masters, and they are aggressive towards others, but they can learn some tricks, and it is better to be a male bird, and they are better at speaking than a female bird. The boss introduced.

Yes, he only said yes, and did not expose his shortcomings, and he was a profiteer.

The sunflower parrot can sometimes make a loud noise, especially in the morning and evening, and its bite is very strong, and the cage must be strong enough, otherwise it can easily escape from prison.

After speaking, the boss shouted to the citizens passing by: "Come, walk by, don't miss the lak!"

Everyone else didn't look at it, but it was too uninteresting to say that this line was too uninspiring, and it had been said for hundreds of years, and you still shouted, is it interesting?

"Don't miss Ratcha! Don't miss Ratcha!"

At this time, several parrots also shouted after the boss in an immature voice.

This time, everyone stopped for a long time. However, this face is basically for parrots, purely driven by curiosity, and there is no intention of buying it for the time being.

Yang Fan dares to guarantee that this is definitely a plot arranged by the profiteer.

"Little brother, why don't you get a few to go back? Birds are singing and flowers are fragrant! How can you buy flowers today without birds!" The boss's mouth is really powerful.

Yang Fan said secretly: "Do you want to go back?" You will be a professional bird keeper! Besides, I don't have to buy flowers today.

However, when his eyes fell on a birdcage in the corner, his eyes flashed.
