Chapter 66: Leading the Dog
"Can you eat this thing?"
Nie Yun and Tian Zhen couldn't help but be stunned, Nie Yun also picked up a small red bean from Zhao Jianhong's daughter's hand and looked at it carefully.
The small red beans produced by this yew have red and tender flesh and look very plump, but they are a little smaller. It doesn't seem strange to say that this thing can be eaten. It's just that Nie Yun doesn't know what the taste of this little red bean knotted with yew is.
Since Zhao Jianhong's daughter said that this thing can be eaten, she will not lie to herself, even if it is not very delicious, at least it will not be poisonous.
Thinking in his heart, Nie Yun casually threw the little red bean into his mouth.
This little red bean melted in his mouth, and a hint of sweet and greasy flavor instantly filled Nie Yun's taste buds, sweet, and a little sticky, like a lingering taste......
Subconsciously, Nie Yun's mouth moved, wanting to chew this little red bean gently.
However, the next moment, Nie Yun's brows immediately furrowed!
Bitter!
Extremely bitter, after the flesh of this little red bean was sucked off by itself, the small black seed was left, which stayed in his mouth, but only the bitter taste remained.
And at this time, Tian Zhen also took a small red bean and put it in his mouth and tasted it: "Hey, it's so sweet!" But then he frowned, "Its seeds are so bitter......"
"Sweet and bitter, maybe it's the taste of acacia!" Nie Yun smiled slightly, lovesickness, he may not have experienced it, the feeling between himself and Li Xiaoli before was mainly plain, and he slowly had feelings, and then slowly this feeling began to dissipate again. I haven't tasted this strong acacia taste yet. Not to mention Tian Zhen, who has not yet had a relationship......
"Hehehe, Brother Nie Yun, how is it, my acacia beans taste good, right?"
And at this time, a hearty voice came steeply.
"Dad?"
As soon as Zhao Jianhong's daughter turned around, she happened to see Zhao Jianhong, who was wearing a black tracksuit, walking towards this side with a smile.
Nie Yun and Tian Zhen also raised their heads to look at the voice, and also saw Zhao Jianhong.
"Brother Zhao!" Nie Yun smiled and greeted Zhao Jianhong, Tian Zhen also called "Uncle Zhao" crisply, and the charcoal ball ran directly to Zhao Jianhong with his tail wagged, holding Zhao Jianhong's legs with two paws, as if he wanted to eat from Zhao Jianhong.
"Hehe, Brother Nie Yun, why didn't you call me when you arrived? I figured you'd be coming, so I came out to take a look. Well, the charcoal balls have grown so big...... Go, stay for a while, and wait until you hit the rabbit pheasant, and you're indispensable! He said a few words to Nie Yun first, and then Zhao Jianhong slapped the charcoal ball on the head, asking the charcoal ball not to entangle himself.
"We also just arrived, and we happened to see this yew, and we hadn't seen this thing before, so we took a look." Nie Yun said with a smile.
"This yew is also what I came in two days ago. It is a new variety, American Mandia yew, which is actually a miscellaneous delivery of our Northeast yew and Canadian yew, which is drought and cold-tolerant, suitable for planting in our north! Yew is a very popular 'Acacia Group' in the south, but the southern yew is introduced to our north and is very difficult to raise. This Mandia yew is different, it is suitable for our northern climate, and it is estimated that it can be promoted in the future! Zhao Jianhong said.
"The price of such a plant is at least 3,000 yuan. Brother Nie Yun, the new variety I told you on the phone is this, what do you think of its prospects? Zhao Jianhong asked Nie Yun.
One yew tree, worth three thousand.
Compared with high-quality bonsai, this price is very low, but you must know that this yew does not have the exquisite tree shape of ordinary bonsai at all, although the leaves are dark green, red beans are bright red, and it looks good, but the ornamental and pruning value of bonsai is very limited. Regardless of the variety, if you only have the shape of the tree, it is not even a low-grade bonsai.
A plant with a good root shape and a good variety of osmanthus is sold for a thousand oceans.
Such a yew tree is worth 3,000, which is already quite a high price!
"This thing has just developed in our north, and it has a certain value as a green and healthy plant. Now if it develops on a large scale, there are certain prospects. However, the extension value of bonsai is not high, the two years of speculation is hot, the development is OK, after two years the heat decreases, the number increases, it is not rare, and the value has stabilized. Nie Yun thought about it and said to Zhao Jianhong.
Yew grows too slowly, and likes straight to jump high poles, with few forks, too difficult to shape, and is not of high value in bonsai. When the intensity of hot frying decreases and the number increases, the value of the variety decreases, and the overall value decreases!
Scarcity is expensive!
Like tassels, even if there are too many, as long as they are in good shape, they are extremely valuable. And this yew, in the future, when there are more of them, is difficult to shape, and it is basically scrapped.
"Hehe, brother, you think the same as I think. Some time ago, someone asked us to develop this, and I asked me to give it no. Okay, don't talk about this, I'll call you over today, to be honest, it's a little trivial, let you staff the staff, but it's not a big deal, let's go up the mountain to fight rabbits first, have fun, and come back! ”
Zhao Jianhong smiled, changed the topic, and said to Nie Yun.
"By the way, I haven't introduced you yet, my daughter, Zhao Jing, this is Nie Yun, I'll call you brother, you should call uncle. This is Tian Zhen, but he is the same generation as you, just call my sister! Zhao Jianhong introduced Nie Yun to a few people again.
At this moment, Zhao Jianhong's daughter, Zhao Jing, looked at Nie Yun's gaze, and obviously changed a little.
Before, Zhao Jing just thought that Nie Yun just came to give gifts to his father and beg his father to do something, and Zhao Jianhong usually rejected such people. But Zhao Jing never imagined that Nie Yun was actually a guest invited by Zhao Jianhong, and even Zhao Jianhong would come out to greet him in person.
Listening to the conversation between my father and this Nie Yun before, this Nie Yun is obviously my father's flower friend.
Looking at Nie Yun's age, he is not as old as himself, how much has such a young man achieved in flower bonsai? Worthy of such attention from my father?
"Hehe, Brother Zhao, let's go our separate ways. Zhao Jing is a little older than me, right? Just call me Nie Yun in the future! ”
Let a girl who is two or three years older than herself call her uncle, Nie Yun's skin is not thick enough to this extent, and with a slight smile, Nie Yun stretched out his right hand to Zhao Jing.
"Oh, hello, Nie...... Nie Yun! Zhao Jing also quickly reacted and shook Nie Yun's hand.
"Okay Nie Yun, let's drive the car in, let's have a good day today, if we have fun, let's just camp in the mountains again, go up today, and come down tomorrow!" Zhao Jianhong said.
drove the Humvee into Guiyuan, and Nie Yuntian Zhen and the charcoal ball followed Zhao Jianhong into the interior of Guiyuan.
This Guiyuan has dozens of acres of land, and the osmanthus flowers on the periphery are gradually deepening, and a two-story villa also appears in front of several people.
Zhao Jianhong's villa is not big, two floors are five or six hundred square meters, and there are all kinds of bonsai flowers in front of the villa.
"Let's go, let's go to my collection room first and pick up some equipment!"
Zhao Jianhong said, and took Nie Yun and Tian Zhen into the villa.
Zhao Jing in the back was secretly surprised, Zhao Jianhong's collection room is not something that ordinary people can enter, Zhao Jianhong was born in the military, and the collection room is full of military products, although there are not many guns, but there are all kinds of field equipment. These things are Zhao Jianhong's baby bumps, and they are not easy for people to touch.
In addition, when he goes to Qinglong Mountain to hunt, Zhao Jianhong goes once or twice a year, after all, it is too frequent, and there are fewer birds and beasts on the mountain, and it is not interesting. Being able to take Nie Yun up this time is enough to show that Zhao Jianhong attaches great importance to Nie Yun.
When they arrived at the villa, a middle-aged woman greeted her with a smile, which was Zhao Jianhong's wife. Zhao Jianhong's wife's eyebrows are very similar to Zhao Jing, although they are nearly fifty, but they are well maintained, they look like they are only forty, and their bearing is not graceful, but they are also quiet, and they are good wives and mothers.
Zhao Jianhong introduced it, Nie Yun called his sister-in-law, and Tian Zhen called his aunt.
"Here, come into my collection room!"
As he spoke, Zhao Jianhong took out the key and opened a locked room on the first floor of the villa.
Click!
The door opened, and Nie Yun only saw the black hole in the room, and he couldn't see anything clearly. Zhao Jianhong stretched out his hand and turned on the light, and the scene in this sealed room appeared in front of Nie Yun.
I saw that in this room, there were two rows of iron shelves, on the shelves and on the walls, there were all kinds of field equipment, even large tents, crossbows, and three shotguns on the walls, single-barreled, double-barreled, and some knives and other things...... For a moment, Nie Yun was a little dazzled.
"Brother Nie Yun, will you use a gun? Pick? Zhao Jianhong said, picking up a double-barreled shotgun from the wall.
"I've hit targets in college military training, and I fired less than five shots in total, forget it, I'll take something else, this time it mainly depends on your marksmanship, brother!" Nie Yun said with a smile, looked left and right, casually picked up a military shovel, and took a dagger with a blood groove: "These two!" ”
"Brother Nie Yun has a good vision, our [***] shovel is a magic weapon comparable to the Swiss Army knife!" Zhao Jianhong smiled, "But Nie Yun, you can think about it, this time you go up the mountain, you can't touch the coyote, it's better to take two more things to be prepared!" ”
"It's okay, the coyote is here, just let the charcoal ball, even if you can't beat it, you can be a meat shield!"
Nie Yun patted the charcoal ball and said with a smile.
The wolves in the mountains are different from the steppe wolves, the steppe wolves are usually in large groups, dozens or hundreds are common, the number of wolves in the mountains is smaller, and the degree of brutality is also limited, at most three or two, Zhao Jianhong's shotgun also ended.
What's more, Nie Yun's kung fu is not in vain, using a dagger to fight in close quarters is even more powerful than a shotgun!
"That's okay, pick those two things, just those two, in short, don't say that your brother is stingy, you won't be allowed to use good things!"
With that, Zhao Jianhong and Nie Yun walked out of the collection room and locked the door.
"Let's go, Nie Yun, follow me to the back to lead the dog. You have a charcoal ball, and my brother is not without a good dog, this time it will definitely open your eyes! Zhao Jianhong smiled confidently and said.
