"Okay, young man, you pick two root carvings, and this old root should be added to you!"

Hearing Nie Yun's words, the middle-aged man who sold root carvings had a bright eye and immediately said.

This middle-aged man sells root carvings here, and he may not be able to sell a few a day, and most of the people who come to Fuyun Mountain to travel still look at the scenery and look at the world's first ginkgo tree, and basically have no interest in anything else. Even if you occasionally buy some handicrafts and souvenirs, you generally don't choose root carving.

The prices of the handicrafts and trinkets sold outside are usually very cheap, and the things made in the industrial process are as little as one or two, and as many as twenty or thirty, which is much cheaper than these root carvings!

That is to say, only a few tourists go back to the Fuyun Temple to take a look at the "world's largest root carving", and buy a few carvings by the way.

In general, the sales situation of middle-aged people is not optimistic.

Now that Nie Yun said that he wanted to buy a few root carvings, the middle-aged man was naturally more happy.

"Xiao Zhen, what do you belong to? Let's pick a root carving of your own genus! ”

Nie Yun said to Tian Zhen as he picked up the coiling dragon root carving.

Nie Yun belongs to the snake, but the snake is called "little dragon" in the local countryside, and when it comes to what it is, it belongs to the "big dragon" and the "small dragon", and it is not bad to get a coiled dragon root carving.

"I'm a sheep, so I want this little lamb root carving!" Tian Zhen looked at it and took the smallest lamb root carving.

"This little rabbit, as well as the puppy, and this big sheep, all of them, plus this dragon root carving, a total of four, uncle, look at how much it is!" Nie Yun thought about it, and took two more root carvings, the big sheep was relatively large, and the estimated price was a little higher. Getting that old root by yourself is already a big bargain for leakage, and you can't let middle-aged people suffer too much.

"The price of this dragon is a hundred, the big sheep is eighty, and the lamb and the puppy are worthless, they are all twenty. Do you give one hundred and five out of four? The middle-aged uncle asked Nie Yun tentatively.

The dragon root carving is one hundred, the big sheep is eighty, and the small sheep and puppies are forty in total, a total of two hundred and twenty yuan, although Nie Yun's funds are a little tight, but the money can still be taken out. However, what Nie Yun didn't expect was that as soon as the middle-aged uncle opened his mouth, the price was reduced to one hundred and fifteen.

Generally speaking, this middle-aged uncle sells root carvings, and he asks for one hundred, and he can get them at a counteroffer of sixty, and two hundred and two root carvings, this middle-aged uncle drops to one hundred and fifteen, and he is afraid that Nie Yun will not buy it if it is too expensive.

"So, if you want this little mouse root carving, I'll give you a total of two hundred!"

Nie Yun didn't want to raise the price by himself, so he picked up a small mouse root carving and asked Tian Zhen to take it, while he took out two hundred yuan and handed it to the middle-aged uncle.

"Uncle, do you have a newspaper or something, give me a bag for this old root." Without waiting for the middle-aged uncle to say anything, Nie Yun immediately picked up the old root and said to the middle-aged uncle.

"Yes, yes!" The middle-aged uncle hurriedly found a large stack of newspapers, Nie Yun took two of them casually, and wrapped them on the old root, so as not to dry the soil carried on the old root, and after doing all this, Nie Yun said to the middle-aged uncle, "Let's go", and left the root carving stall with Tian Zhen.

"Uncle Nie, what are you spending so much money on these root carvings?" Tian Zhen didn't quite understand what Nie Yun did. In Tian Zhen's opinion, although these root carvings are quite beautiful, the price of dozens of yuan is still too high. There are also a lot of small things outside, and they look very good, all of which are small handicrafts that are machine-ground out of plastic, much finer than these root carvings, and the price is not expensive.

"It's not about these root carvings, it's about this old root. Well, let's put it this way, take this old root back, repair it for three or five days, and sell it for thirty or fifty thousand yuan! ”

Nie Yun smiled and said a more conservative price.

"Huh?"

Hearing Nie Yun's words, Tian Zhen's eyes immediately widened, and he looked at the old root that Nie Yun was holding suspiciously, a little incredulous.

A piece of broken root is worth 350,000 yuan?

"It shouldn't be a big problem, wait for two days to get it done, give Brother Zhao a call, this price is indispensable." I don't believe I'll take you to see it when the time comes! Seeing that Tian Zhen didn't believe it, Nie Yun smiled and said.

Tian Zhen stuck out his tongue, Zhao Jianhong, these rich people, I really don't understand, they can spend millions to buy a puppy, it seems that it is not impossible to buy a piece of old root for 350,000 yuan.

"Let's go, go around the back!" Nie Yun said to Tian Zhen, and walked behind the floating cloud view with Tian Zhen and the charcoal ball. Behind the floating cloud view, there is a "world's first carving", which applied for the Guinness Book of Records, although the Guinness World Records are very worthless this year, some time ago the domestic application for world records became a trend, and holding your breath for three minutes can be counted as a record. But in any case, the world's first carving is a gimmick, and it is estimated that there should be some stalls behind the Taoist temple selling root carvings.

If you can find another stag root, even an old root three or five times worse than a stag root, it can be regarded as a big profit!

It's a pity that after walking around, Nie Yun was still disappointed.

It's not that there are no stalls selling root carvings.

Rather, these root carvings are sold in the back, and there are very few handmade ones, many of which are made by mechanical grinding, but they are fine enough and lifelike, but to make these root carvings, people are all old roots, and they are directly taken home and put in the machine for polishing, and the old roots will not be brought to the stall at all.

After turning around for half an hour, there was nothing left to see, and Nie Yuncai and Tian Zhen left the Floating Cloud Temple.

"What else is there to play? Why don't we go climbing? Nie Yun said to Tian Zhen. However, after getting the old root, Nie Yun was not in the mood to play, and put all his thoughts on the old root, eager to fly home immediately and bury the old root in the soil......

"No, Uncle Nie, let's go back. What's the point of climbing a mountain, climbing a mountain all day at home......" Tian Zhen seemed to see Nie Yun's thoughts, and said to Nie Yun.

In fact, running to Fuyun Mountain, that is, to see the ginkgo tree, or play horseback riding, ring or something, really want to climb the mountain, Fuyun Mountain may not be stronger than the mountain behind Majiatun, it is not a slip of mountain rocks and soil or something, and the mountain is also full of pine and cypress weeds. Moreover, Fuyun Mountain is climbed all day long, but it is not as interesting as some wild hills.

"Alright, let's go back. Later, I will pass by the county seat, buy some vegetables or something, and go home to cook and eat! ”

I took out my phone and looked at it, and it was twelve o'clock at noon, since there was nothing to do, I went back.

After going down the mountain, I drove back to the county seat first, and there was a fixed vegetable market in the county, and there were vegetable sellers in the same place. After buying some vegetables and fruits, Nie Yun drove to the Daji Flower and Bird Market.

On August 16, the big market is not a market, but there are also bonsai shops, pet shops and other shops in the shops along the street on both sides of the big set flower and bird market. Nie Yun went to a bonsai shop and chose a clay pot flower pot that was 30 centimeters long, 20 centimeters wide, and only about ten centimeters high.

The pot is black-brown in color, and there are four lines of poetry in cursive on it:

Rank and rank Sigan, secluded South Mountain. Such as bamboo buds, such as pine trees.

These four sentences are sentences in the "Book of Songs", which are roughly a metaphor for the prosperity of the monarch's family. You can plant bamboo and pine trees in pots. Nie Yun was going to use this pot to cultivate this deer-shaped pine.

The flower pot is not expensive, but it is only about ten yuan. After buying the flower pots, Nie Yunjing drove home with Tian Zhen.

It was already one o'clock in the afternoon when I arrived at home, Uncle Tian had eaten early, Tian Zhen made another dish and ate some with Nie Yun. After eating, Tian Zhen cleaned up the housework at home, and Nie Yun also returned to his hometown, preparing to decorate the deer-shaped pine.

When I returned home, I saw the old golden cinnamon in the middle of the main house.

All the needles on Lao Jingui's body were pulled out, and Nie Yun had already noticed that Lao Jingui's root absorption function had recovered. It's just that the leaves of the tree have withered and yellowed before, and the entire canopy still looks a little depressed and withered, and the whole bonsai has not yet reached its strongest state.

However, on those previous dead branches, there are new shoots, and some of the new shoots even have young leaves, it is estimated that it will not take a few days for the young leaves to grow slightly, and the crown of the old golden laurel tree is lush, which is considered a complete recovery!

Anyone who has raised cinnamon knows that the osmanthus tree grows buds and leaves all year round, even in winter, as long as it is placed in a warm room or shed, it can give birth to young shoots, not to mention that now, the weather is not too cold. Under the care of Nie Yun Lingmu Pupil, this old Jin Gui is full of spiritual energy, and it is strange that he does not sprout.

The sun is not as strong as it is in the middle of summer these days, and it is not bad to occasionally move Lao Jingui out to bask in the sun......

After moving Lao Jingui out first, Nie Yun went outside to dig up a little dirt and put it in the flower pot he bought.

Cautiously, Nie Yun planted the old pine root into the flower pot first.

I got a little water and poured a little on each of the four small roots of the old pine tree.

It is common sense to water trees first, and then drought-resistant plants must be watered thoroughly when planting. In fact, strictly speaking, there are no plants that are afraid of water. The so-called plants that are not resistant to waterlogging are actually just afraid of standing water, resulting in insufficient oxygen absorption by the root system.

After planting the old roots of the pine tree, Nie Yun took two steps back and looked at the old roots of the pine tree in general.

Pruning bonsai, first of all, it is necessary to grasp the whole, bonsai is not a handicraft, many details do not need to be too fine, natural growth is the best. However, it must be coordinated on the whole, and only by grasping the whole can the bonsai not be disqualified.

Staring at the old roots of this pine tree, Nie Yun's mind showed an image of a stag, leaning over, his hind hips slightly raised, and the antlers on his head stretched forward, as if he wanted to fight.

With the overall image in mind, Nie Yun took a deep breath, walked to the old roots of the pine tree, took a small pair of scissors to cut flowers and trees in his hand, and gently cut off a small branch.

Cutting off this twig, Nie Yun entered the state of Lingmu Pupil again, allowing his cyan aura to emanate, entering the inside of the old roots of the pine tree, trying to guide the aura. The truncation of the twig actually cuts off a spiritual vein, but the spiritual energy in the old roots of the pine tree will still rush to the fracture of this spiritual vein, and eventually form a scar. What Nie Yun has to do now is to channel the aura in this spiritual vein out and prevent it from surging towards the broken mouth again.
