Chapter Ninety-Six: Bonsai Fair (Asking for Flowers)
After everyone got to know each other, Teacher Song led a few people to the small house where the flowers were placed, and Cai Xiaomei was sitting behind the coffee table watching TV, and eight pots of flowers were lined up in front. After the tea was served, a few more small talks and then Mr. Song went out, and there were other people to receive.
Cai Xiaomei has realized that she is a frog at the bottom of the well, and her previous valuation of these flowers is a little biased. So next to Zhang Taiping, he quietly asked how much these costs are spent, looking at the appearance of these people, it seems that they are very rare and valuable.
Zhang Taiping just smiled and said nothing, hating Cai Xiaomei so much that she gritted her silver teeth.
No one sat here chatting, and Yang Wanli re-introduced Mr. Song's background in detail.
"Mr. Song has been teaching in Northwest Agriculture and Forestry for decades, and it can be said that the world is full of peach and plum in this industry, and he still has authority in the industry when he said the last sentence." Yang Wanli could see that Fan Ming and Xing Rushui had a big background, so this was mainly for Zhang Taiping to say, "Do you feel that it is strange that a teacher can buy such a big yard here?" ”
Zhang Taiping nodded, it is indeed very strange, in his previous life, he only heard that Teacher Song was upright and rigorous, but he didn't know that he could buy such a large courtyard in this area. It's just that now I understand the reason a little, I have prestige in the industry, I can help others appreciate treasures, and I always cultivate or pick up some omissions, and it's not uncommon to make a fortune in this test.
Yang Wanli said: "Teacher Song occasionally picks up some leaks outside or goes to other places to find some treasures, but the most important thing is that his son is engaged in the stone industry. ”
Zhang Taiping understands that the "stone" Yang Wanli is talking about here is not an ordinary stone that can be seen anywhere, but another industry that coexists with flowers, bonsai, antiquities and treasures - gambling stones.
Cai Xiaomei didn't understand that the stone could still be sold for money, but she knew that Yang Wanli could say it, and there must be something she didn't know about it, so she couldn't help but ask. She didn't ask, but someone asked for her.
"Can stones be sold for money?" Fan Ming sat on Zhang Taiping's left side, poked out half of his head, and asked Yang Wanli, who was sitting on the right side.
Yang Wanli smiled: "Of course it's not an ordinary stone, but a rough jadeite stone, and it is possible to mine jadeite and jade stones." Mr. Song's son is engaged in this business, but he doesn't often gamble on stones, but after others gamble on stones, whether it rises or falls, he buys it at a reasonable price and opens a treasure shop."
Zhang Taiping understood, this was the house given to him by Mr. Song's son. In Zhang Taiping's memory, Mr. Song has always been a simple and gentle person in school, and he has never seen anything publicized, not even a paper or anything.
As he was talking, Yang Wanli's mobile phone rang. He picked it up and saw that it was Niu Junfeng's, and he picked up the phone after Zhang Taiping signaled.
A loud voice came from the phone: "Monkey, where are you, why did you look for a whole person who didn't see your shadow teeth?" "Monkey is the nickname given to him by Yang Wanli's roommate.
"In the room on the right side of the hall, Brother Zhang also came."
"Brother Zhang is here too? That's great," he hung up, and then there was a knock on the door.
Yang Wanli got up closest to the door and opened the door, Niu Junfeng came in and saw that there were still three women stunned, but he still smiled and said hello. After greeting a few people, I was surprised to see a row of flowers and bonsai on the ground, which was the same as when Yang Wanli saw it at that time.
"I heard outside just now that someone brought a few pots of superb chrysanthemums and camellias, but I never thought it would be my own."
Yang Wanli said with a smile: "It's all Big Brother Zhang's alone. ”
Hearing this, Niu Junfeng was even more surprised: "Brother Zhang, is this going to sell all of these?" ”
Zhang Taiping nodded. Niu Junfeng sighed a few times, but didn't say anything more. Yang Wanli asked, "Why didn't He Cheng join you?" ”
"Oh, that guy asked his mother to go on a blind date." Although I haven't heard them talk about He Cheng's family background specifically, but from the way he dresses and his usual gestures, he can see that his family background must be good, but I don't know why he hasn't been able to talk about his girlfriend, this is not a twenty-four or five person, Yang Wanli has a child, Niu Junfeng has just gotten married, only he is still single, he is not in a hurry, his mother is in a hurry, and if there is anything to do, he asks which family has a good girl to pull him on a blind date.
At about ten o'clock, Mr. Song walked in from outside and said, "It's almost time for people to come, we can start." ”
Everyone went out with Teacher Song, and did not hold flowers for the time being, but stayed in the room. One is that Mr. Song's reputation is not lost here, and the other is that the outside of the room is the trading hall, which can be taken care of at any time, and it is a bit too high-profile if it is all taken out at once.
There are already more than 20 people in the hall at this time, including Zhang Taiping's six people, there are 30 people, which is not a small number of people in some private trade fairs. Mr. Song, as the host, just introduced Zhang Taiping to everyone, and the others did not introduce them one by one, so there were too many people to introduce them, if everyone introduced them once, then this trade fair would not need to be opened.
Seeing the three different but equally beautiful women in Zhang Taiping's group, everyone in the hall couldn't help but light up their eyes. I was also shocked by Zhang Taiping standing next to him, such a big man is only often seen in the NBA, and he is rarely seen next to him. When Zhang Taiping was introduced, a beautiful woman with a calm temperament sitting in the corner of the back row couldn't help frowning, as if she knew but wasn't sure.
Everyone sat down, someone brought tea, and Teacher Song said as the host: "Let's start, let's follow the old rules." ”
Yang Wanli, who was sitting next to him, explained to Zhang Taiping what the old rules were: "There is nothing, just according to this seat, from front to back, one by one, take turns to take out the Peng Jing that he wants to sell for everyone to appreciate first, and then everyone bids fairly, and the one with the highest price wins, so as to put an end to the inflated price and the competition for a while." ”
An old man who was about the same age as Teacher Song sitting on the left side of the front row stood up and said, "The old man has nothing for everyone to appreciate today, just to see if there are any good things." ”
When the people heard him say this, they understood that he had nothing to sell today, but had come to buy something.
Yang Wanli introduced several people and said: "This old man's name is Tian Zhendong, he is a friend of Teacher Song, and he is also a Taishan Beidou-style figure in the circle. ”
The second one to stand up was a middle-aged man, but this one was a mountain stone bonsai. Yang Wanli and Niu Junfeng didn't know who this was, and everyone was not interested in this bonsai, so they didn't pay much attention, but they knew that someone bid 2,000 for this bonsai in the end, but this one didn't sell it.
Xing Rushui's attention was not on the lively trade fair, but sat behind Zhang Taiping and Fan Ming and carefully observed the changes in Fan Ming. But this time, Fan Ming was in the crowd, not only did not become more and more depressed as before, but shouted the lively scene in the field with great interest. What is the reason for all this?
Xing Rushui has been able to preliminarily determine that the problem lies with the tower-like man in front of him, and he is only slowly observing during the time he gets along after he goes back, but he can't be in a hurry to test it, because this man obviously has a sharp force far beyond ordinary people, and he also has secrets that no one knows. It's good to observe slowly, if you are anxious to let him notice what is going on and misunderstanding is a very unpleasant thing, although he is conceited and extraordinary, ordinary people never pay attention to it, but he does not have the confidence to please him in his hands.
Then they stood up one by one and there were things showing their own things, and there were no things to skip, but the ones in front were all things that were not very valuable, Yang Wanli and others had seen Zhang Taiping's things, but they were not interested in these things that might have been fought for in the past, and they sat there and waited for Zhang Taiping's things to appear, and even Niu Junfeng, who was frizzy in the past, lacked interest in these things.
On the contrary, Fan Ming and Cai Xiaomei were very interested in the outcry transaction in the field. Fan Ming used to be like a bird in a cage, but now she can finally fly freely, but she has never seen it and felt novel, to be precise, she feels new about everything. Cai Xiaomei is these plants or bonsai that don't seem to be unusual, breaking Yu Yang's concept, I didn't expect that a small plant or a plate of stones could be sold for such a high price, and I didn't feel full of expectations for the flowers brought by Zhang Taiping.
Zhang Taiping's qi cultivation kung fu is much stronger than Yang Wanli and Niu Junfeng, and the old god is still sitting on the ground and not impatient, so that Teacher Song, who has been secretly observing him, can't help but nod secretly with a burst of experience, and his evaluation of him is a few points higher, and it is rare for young people to have this kind of qi cultivation kung fu now.
Just when Niu Junfeng felt that he was about to fall asleep, a burst of shouting startled him, and he looked at the middle with wide eyes, and the sixth person who brought something was an orchid.
I couldn't see it clearly from a distance, but a few people had already come forward, Niu Junfeng also stood up and surrounded him, although he was not as tall as Zhang Taiping standing together, but the height of one meter eight standing in the crowd was not small. The probe looked inside, and also took a breath.
He retreated and said to Zhang Taiping and the others: "It's a petal lotus orchid." ”
Since the first person exclaimed, Zhang Taiping took a careful look at this lotus, others can't see clearly from a distance, it doesn't mean that he can't see clearly, he also knows about the lotus orchid, but he didn't think about it for a while, and he remembered it after Niu Junfeng's reminder.
Flowers don't help
