Chapter 31: The Eighteen Bachelors Who Can't Bloom
"Brother Liangchen! How did you go! I'm about to help you teach you a lesson, what about that little deflated third in Yunshan? ”
"Who am I going to teach you to help me with?" Ye Liangchen's voice sank, "Also, can you use some brains in the future, do you know who that little girl was just now?" ”
"Isn't it just a little girl, is it still some big shot?" Tan Jiao didn't care about the way.
"That's a member of the Wen family, the precious granddaughter of Old Man Wen." Ye Liangchen secretly scolded the other party for being a fool, as a member of a big family, he didn't even know the descendants of other families.
"What? So what to do? Tan Jiao's expression couldn't help but be a little flustered, the Wen family and the Tan family are also one of the five major families, and the Wen family is a single lineage, if that little girl is really the granddaughter of the old man Wen, then her identity in the Wen family must be much higher than her status in the Tan family.
"You can't hide from this matter, the next time I meet Old Man Wen, I take the initiative to apologize, and he, as an elder, can't hold on." Ye Liangchen glanced at Tan Jiao, if it weren't for the family's insistence on marrying the Tan family, how could he walk with such a brainless woman? Even if you want to get married, it should be Tan Yao...... Hmph, Yunshan, I remember you, no one has ever dared to snatch what I Ye Liangchen wants to get!
Of course, Yun Shan didn't know about these things.
At this time, he had already left the restaurant and followed Uncle Yang and a few old men to hang out!
The special exhibition area is a hollow structure exhibition hall, covering an area of more than 20,000 meters flat, more than 20 meters high, with six exits. It is the largest venue of this flower show. The flowers that can be placed here are all high-quality.
In the center of the arena is a separate area surrounded by a partition. This area is cleverly designed, similar to the Taoist Bagua pattern, with a Taiji diagram in the middle of an open space, surrounded by eight areas divided into eight areas, each divided into three layers. There are a total of 24 booths, and if you add the yin and yang fish in the middle, it is 26 booths.
According to the rules of previous years, the gossip booth on the outer two floors is the work of the special award of the exhibition, and the gossip booth in the middle will display the last eight places of the "Top Ten Wonders" of this competition. The Yin-Yang Fish booth will display gold and silver awards.
"Yunshan, you see that my Flying Saucer King is there! Now ranked eighth. Uncle Yang said excitedly, "In previous years, I used to accompany the prince to study, but this year it is finally my turn to sing a play." ”
Yun Shan looked along the line of sight of several old men, and sure enough, a cactus more than three meters high stood in the eighth seat of the Bagua area like a flock, and the cactus had eleven big flowers, especially the one on the top of the head, which was more than one meter in diameter, extremely dazzling, and Yun Shan recognized the one he had cultivated at a glance.
"What is there to be proud of, I have to be squeezed down tomorrow." Lao Li said sourly, but although he was unforgiving, he was still very happy that his old friend could be on the list.
"I know! Actually, I didn't expect to win the grand prize, and I was actually very happy to be able to make an appearance! Old Uncle Yang said with a smile.
"Let's go, let's go over and take a look, the booth was not full in the morning, and now it seems that it should be noon and a lot of good works will be sent!"
The central exhibition area can only be placed by the referee to determine the qualifications, mainly based on the variety, quality, size, weirdness, cherishing and so on...... If the number of flowers exceeds the number of booths, then you need to ask the judges to score, the highest score is ranked first, and the low score is replaced.
At this time, except for the two booths of the central yin and yang fish, the remaining twenty-four booths were already full.
When Yunshan and a few people walked over, they saw a man in his thirties begging bitterly, as if he wanted the judges to keep his exhibition qualifications, but the judges resolutely refused, and after removing the man's exhibits, they replaced them with a pot of newly sent goldfish spider plants.
"This goldfish spider plant is good! There are hundreds of flowers here, it's a hall full of gold and jade! Old Uncle Yang exclaimed.
"Haha...... Prizes have been awarded! A middle-aged man walked over with a smile on his face, it was the owner of this pot of goldfish spider plant, and when he saw that several people in Yunshan were interested in his exhibits, he introduced them in detail.
After learning that Uncle Yang was also a fellow student, especially when he learned that Uncle Yang also had a potted plant in the special exhibition area and ranked lower than him, the middle-aged man became more enthusiastic.
The middle-aged man's name is Liu Haibo, is a decoration company's soil boss, many years ago came to Tianhai to work hard, made a lot of money over the years, and began to follow people to play this line, no matter others say that he is vassally elegant or full of food and nothing to do, he doesn't care very much, but really likes these flowers and plants, after contacting this line of work, he did cultivate his temperament, so that he has an elegant temperament, looks more like a boss.
"Mr. Liu, is this goldfish spider plant expensive?" Yun Shan asked with some slight. Although he thinks this flower is very beautiful, he is most concerned about the value.
"Ordinary goldfish and spider plant potted plants are very cheap, and mine is a little more expensive, but basically they are low-end consumer goods. If you want to play, I'll give you a pot when you go back, and it's good to learn and accumulate experience as a novice. Liu Haibo smiled, probably thinking of Yunshan as a junior who followed Uncle Yang to see the excitement.
"Haha, Lao Liu, what you said is wrong." Old Uncle Yang and the others couldn't help laughing as if they had found something funny.
"Brother Yang, could it be that what I said is wrong?" Liu Haibo felt unclear.
"Haha, not only is it wrong, but your vision is also inaccurate!" Old Uncle Yang smiled, "Yun Shan is not a novice, he is much more powerful than our old men!" You don't know, my Flying Saucer King was given to me by Yunshan. ”
Liu Haibo was slightly stunned, he also saw the Maohuazhu Flying Saucer King in the exhibition area, it was indeed a rare wonder, he didn't believe it, such a strange plant was actually raised by the hairy boy in front of him? How many young people today know how to spend flowers and plants? And those who know how to raise flowers don't even know the value of goldfish spider plants? However, Uncle Yang and the others will definitely not lie to him, which can only show that he has no vision for home and mistakenly takes ginseng as a radish.
"Little brother Yunshan, you are really a real person!" Liu Haibo smiled slightly apologetically.
"I just like to fiddle with some special things, and I definitely don't know as much about this industry as you old players, so I will rely on you for more guidance in the future!" Yun Shan responded with a smile.
"Shady, you must be shady, I have won awards every year for these eighteen bachelors, why don't you let me put it here this year?"
At this time, not far away, a man in his thirties quarreled with the judges with excitement.
Yun Shan looked sideways slightly, surprised in his heart, just now this person's exhibit was removed and replaced with Liu Haibo's goldfish spider plant.
"What's going on?" Yun Shan asked curiously.
"The booth is limited, just now the referee gave me the goldfish spider plant score exceeded his camellia, and replaced him, maybe he was a little unconvinced!" Liu Haibo frowned slightly, looking a little dissatisfied. If it is according to the other party's meaning, wouldn't it be said that his goldfish spider plant relied on shady scenes to get to the booth through the back door? This is simply a doubt and attack on his strength and the countless efforts he has spent on it.
Eighteen bachelors?
Old Uncle Yang and several old men glanced at each other, nodded, and said: "I have an impression of this camellia, I saw it at the exhibition last year and the year before last, but it was an old man who came to participate in the exhibition at that time." This camellia was raised by the old man for half his life, called Eighteen Bachelors, and it is said that it can bloom eighteen camellias at the same time, and the color of each flower is different. ”
"Is there such a strange flower?"
"How can you! These were all the old man's words, because no one had ever seen this camellia bloom. I was there when this camellia was exhibited in the first year, and it was rumored that it was amazing, although there were indeed eighteen flower bones growing on the tree, but no one knew whether it was true or false when it didn't bloom. Even so, he was given a special award that year. ”
Old Uncle Yang shook his head and sighed, "Last year, the old man came again, but what is strange is that there are still eighteen flower bones on the tree, exactly the same as the year before last, and the flowers just can't bloom." The flower bones have not bloomed for two years, and it is the first time that everyone has seen them, so it is comforting to give a special award, but after the judges' determination, this should be an ordinary camellia, not the legendary eighteen flowers with different colors.
After hearing this assessment, the old man was a little angry at the time, and went back to say that he was seriously ill, and then there was no news, but he didn't expect this camellia to come again this year, this young man should be the son of the old man. ”
Uncle Yang's tone paused slightly, and he said hesitantly: "It's strange to say, I took a special look in the morning, and found that the eighteen flower bones on this camellia are still last year or can be said to be the older ones before, and they haven't changed at all." ”
"And that kind of thing?" The people of Yunshan looked at each other a little.
A camellia plant is said to be able to produce eighteen flowers of different colors, but only flower bones grow but not flowers, and the eighteen flower bones have been the same for three years, and have not changed. It's a bit peculiar.
"Since this flower is so peculiar, why don't you give him a place in a special exhibition?" Yun Shan asked.
"It's not that easy. There are 24 places in the special exhibition, and the competition is fierce. Since that camellia has been judged to be an ordinary camellia, how can it waste a booth for it? Liu Haibo shook his head and said, "And he and his father spent half his life working hard to simply plant flowers, I heard that this person wants to sell flowers, and he just wants to compete for a good booth and get an award, in order to sell them at a higher price." So the judges didn't give him any face this year. ”
"Would he like to sell his camellias?" Yun Shan's eyes lit up slightly.
