The next day, the light rain continued to fall, and there was a smell of the ocean in the air. Yang Ping got up early to provide wake-up service, and the three of them packed up. Xiao Li and the driver's uncle also arrived, found a ramen restaurant on the way, and Xili snorted after breakfast. Head straight to the Tokyo International Kaikan.

Yang Ping and the three of them entered the hall, Abu looked left and right, and wondered: "This award ceremony is not very grand, it is still the banquet hall where the last cocktail party was held." It's not as big as our company's annual meeting. ”

Gu Jing's thoughts are similar to Yang Ping: "The scene is not important, the important thing is the ranking." You think everyone is as extravagant as your company. ”

Abu rolled his eyes: "It's an international competition, you can see that it's still a folding chair." ”

Yang Ping looked at the dense human heads, a little dizzy: "Xiao Li, where are we sitting?" ”

Xiao Li guided the three of them to find their seats: "Brother Yang, the Aquatic Grass Competition adheres to the rigorous and economical style of the Japanese, which has always been like this, and it is not as grand as in China. ”

The three nodded thoughtfully.

The host introduced the participating countries and shortlisted works of this year's Aquatic Grass Competition. Yang Ping didn't understand Japanese, but he was amazed by the entries on the projection screen.

"Do you like it? This is the real high-level aquatic landscaping. Yang Ping's eyebrows fluttered to Abu and Gu Jing to introduce the design concept of each grass tank landscaping work on the screen, aquatic plant varieties.

Gu Jing joined in the fun, kept taking pictures, and from time to time she also asked for an interview with contestants from other countries, asking for an autograph or something, and she was very busy.

The highlight came, and Mr. Nao Tano announced the list of the top 10 entries. Although they already knew the rankings, the three of them were still very nervous, and Yang Ping was sweating in his hands. Abu and Gu Jing were holding Yang Ping's hand tightly when they heard Mr. Tian Ye Shang announce the first place work in this year's Aquatic Grass Competition, the work of Chinese Yang Ping is "Avatar".

The audience applauded, and Abu and Gu Jing jumped up and high-fived each other in celebration. Everyone kissed Yang Ping fiercely, and there were envious eyes all around. Yang Ping tidied up his suit and walked on stage.

Yang Ping smiled and took the trophy and certificate handed by Mr. Tian Yeshang, bowed back, held the trophy and certificate high, and after a burst of eye-catching flash, Yang Ping solemnly began to give an acceptance speech: "I am very happy and very excited." The audience laughed, Yang Ping nodded and continued: "First of all, thank you to the organizing committee of this competition, as well as Mr. Tian Yeshang, who created a precedent for the grass tank and let us enter a dream world." I'm a newcomer, and I've only been in the straw tank landscape circle for a short time, so I'm surprised to be able to achieve such results. I would also like to thank the movie "Avatar", this work is inspired by this movie, plus my friend Kobayashi and I in the fish music circle have worked together to make this amazing work. Finally, I would like to thank my family and friends for their support. There is a famous writer in our country, Mr. Lin Yutang, who said that a gentleman's speech should be like a woman's skirt, the shorter the better. So, that's it, thank you. ”

In a round of applause, Yang Ping returned to his seat with the trophy. Abu and Gu Jing looked at the trophies and certificates excitedly.

Gu Jing's face was proud: "You are called famous, come and wipe your sweat, be nervous." ”

Abu looked at the check in his hand lightly: "One million yen, that's a lot of money." ”

Yang Ping stretched out his head to let Gu Jing wipe his sweat and wondered: "Abu, are you too much or too little?" ”

"It doesn't matter, the important thing is that the meaning of this money is different, you have become very powerful over the years, what kind of woman is your wife." Abu sighed: "I must go and pay my respects." ”

Gu Jing smiled secretly, and Yang Ping rolled his eyes.

The crowded award ceremony finally ended, lunch was the sushi served by the organizer, and in the afternoon, I went directly to the Aquarium Nature Museum of Mr. Tian Yeshang, who interestingly cooperated with Yang Ping to make Zuò Avatar landscaping. The materials here are very complete, all of them are made by the ADD company, which many in China cannot be bought with money.

The two-meter grass tank is very well arranged, Yang Ping and Mr. Tian Ye Shang did it in one afternoon, as for the pruning of aquatic plants in the later stage, there is a master of Mr. Tian Ye Shang, so there is no need to worry about it. The waterfall is a bit more troublesome, but fortunately, the materials are complete, but it takes a little time to compare the sand. If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools, yes, the tools here Yang Ping only have admiration. As soon as he was ready, Yang Ping turned on the all-silence oxygen pump and tried the waterfall effect, which was perfect. Tell Mr. Tian Ye Shang not to open the waterfall first, and wait for a few days when the aquatic grass grows well, and the group of fish will raise the waterfall before opening the waterfall. Gu Jing meticulously recorded the whole process, and she was still quite dedicated. Abu sat lazily at the workbench, watching his beloved man busy, didn't he say that the man who focused on his work was very sexy, it seemed to make sense, thinking of this, Abu smiled sweetly.

Looking at the avatar grass tank landscaping that had probably come out, Mr. Tian Yeshang expressed his sincere gratitude and bowed deeply to Yang Ping. Yang Ping returned the gift and proposed to order a batch of ADD original equipment. Mr. Tano said with a smile that one of the prizes of this contest was the original equipment of add, and he was willing to give more away. In the end, he also obtained an authorization for Xiaolin to operate add-related equipment and consumables in Xiaolin's store, and everyone was happy.

In the next few days, Yang Ping led Abu and Gu Jing to visit Mount Fuji, soaked in hot springs a few times, bought some gifts for his family, and hurriedly packed up and returned to China.

During the security check at Haneda Airport, Yang Ping was afraid that the blue and white tea cup and the four treasures of the study that he bought this time would cause trouble, so he still took a lot of effort. Put everything into the space and get through it safely.

In Beijing, Yang Ping asked the two beauties to go to Malian Road to pick up their luggage. I ran to Mei Zhu Mei as Boss Lu again.

As soon as he entered the door and saw that Boss Lu was introducing an eighteen Arhat nuclear carving bracelet to customers, Yang Ping nodded at Boss Lu and sat on the side and watched.

"Xiao Zeng, this string of eighteen Arhats is much better than what you took last time" Boss Lu took out a certificate from under the counter, which was an ancient paper, and a few lines of vertical lines were written with the introduction of the author of this string of eighteen Arhats, and he lived proudly: "This string of eighteen Arhats is from the hands of the Suzhou Zhoushan nuclear carving master Xue Guan, I waited in line for two years, and I only got it four times when I went to Zhoushan, with a minimum of 40,000 yuan, you know the market better than me, and I know that I didn't ask for a price, you don't want to be snatched away by others when you see the sky." ”

"Brother Lu, I didn't pick this thing, and the price is right, I want it." Xiao Zeng is also in his early thirties, a light gray Tang suit, with two chains hanging around his neck, a string of ivory and a string of beeswax are not small, wearing two bracelets on his left wrist, a string of sea yellow and a string of crane top red bracelets, a string of Venus Xiaoye Rosewood 2.0 bracelets in his right hand, and a pair of old cloth shoes on his feet. This is the stubborn master of Jingbei, and only such a stubborn master dares to wear it like this.

Yang Ping secretly sighed that he still hadn't played well. Seeing that the two of them finished trading, Yang Ping smiled and said: "Brother Lu, you have opened another big one, I have also done nuclear carving before, but it is a bargain." This is also an eye-opener. ”

Boss Lu introduced with a smile: "Xiao Yang, this is my friend Xiao Zeng, who runs a car chain store. Then he introduced to Xiao Zeng: "This is Xiao Yang, a big player, you have to learn a little, the string of nine-eyed dzi you dreamed of is wearing it on someone's hand." ”

Xiao Zeng's original invincible attitude immediately turned around, and he held Yang Ping's hand with a smile: "Brother Yang, hello, hello, I'll open an auto repair shop, how about it?" Dzi let us open our eyes. ”

Yang Ping smiled bitterly and took off the nine-eyed dzi and handed it over: "A friend gave it, and the thing is mainly commemorative, and the significance is extraordinary." You're a good birdhead. ”

Xiao Zeng took the dzi head and didn't lift it to take off the bird's head bracelet and handed it to Yang Ping, Yang Ping took the bird's head and sighed: "It's really a good thing, for this thing, the helmet hornbills are all killed and extinct." ”

Boss Lu answered: "Yes, this bird has become extinct in Singapore, and there is a jargon in our circle "one red, two black and three white". This white is the ivory is very precious, this black means that the rhino horn is more expensive than gold, and this red is the head of the helmeted hornbill, also called the crane top red. You can imagine how precious it is before the two. There are still very few people who play this in modern times, and hundreds of years ago it was the most extravagant to play this. How? Xiao Yang is interested? ”

Yang Ping gently put the bird's head bracelet on the tea table: "I don't play this, I won't kill if I don't buy and sell." Ivory rhino horn I also only play with proof of origin, the kind allowed by the state. It's not that the style is high.,It's just that I really don't like this kind of bloody literary play.。 ”

"Brother Yang, if you don't play with this thing, others will play it, you can't ban it" Xiao Zeng raised his head and smiled: "This dzi is really good, does it really have the merit of supporting the master?" ”

"That's what Buddhists say, I don't believe that." Yang Ping turned the tea handed over by Boss Lu, curled up his fingers, and gently knocked twice on the tea table with the second joint to express his gratitude: "It doesn't seem to have any support, I didn't see any support at all when I was in trouble." Yang Ping smiled as he remembered the ordeal he had suffered at Gu Jing's house.

"Drink tea, Xiao Yang is here this time?" Boss Lu asked.

Yang Ping took a sip of tea and suddenly felt his tongue fluttering: "Good tea, I remember last time you still have an agarwood bracelet here, have you sold it?" ”

"There are few people playing with this thing, and I've been putting it away, but this is the last string, the density is bigger than the last time you took it, and the quality is still high, what? Planning to buy? "Boss Lu is tentative.

Yang Ping smiled: "Then you give a price?" Or just according to the price last time, no one plays this thing, when will it be pressed? ”

Boss Lu returned to the counter and took out the agarwood bracelet, Yang Ping took it out of the sealed bag and took it out, the quality was indeed slightly better than the last string, the oil line was clear, the fragrance went straight to the back of the head, and the aftertaste was long and refreshing.

"How can you say that the price of this string is also higher, and the density itself is also large, I can't tell you the price, anyway, you have to bargain, what price are you going to charge?" Boss Lu was distressed.

Xiao Zeng asked for an agarwood bracelet and checked it: "Brother Yang, what's so fun about this thing, it's light and fluttering, and the color is not bright." ”

Yang Pingxin said that you don't understand, it's right, look at your posture of not even talking about the price of buying things, if you know the benefits of this thing, what else will I do: "Each has its own good, each has its own good, hehe." He turned his head to Boss Lu and said, "Brother Lu, you will give it to me at the price last time." I'll have to come to Jingbei in a few days, so I have to buy something from you. Besides, cash is king, you don't play with this thing, it's a dead thing to keep it, and if you have that money and then put in some nuclear carvings or something, how good it would be to cash out immediately, this pressure is several years. How much business has been delayed. ”

"No, no, no, if you add two thousand, I'll feel more comfortable." Boss Lu shook his head.

Xiao Zeng interjected: "Brother Lu, why are you so careful, I have never paid a price when I buy something from you." You will sell it at the price that Brother Yang said, and I will bring a few more buddies to come a few more times when I go back, why don't they all come out. Yang Ping listened to the great joy, and thought to himself that this Jingbei person is really bold, you don't bargain because you are stupid and have a lot of money, but seeing that you are so helpful, you still have to give a few more points to your evaluation.

Boss Lu hesitated for a while and sighed: "Alas, okay, why did you meet the two of you, then take 20,000 yuan." ”

Yang Ping was happy, directly put the agarwood bracelet on his wrist, took out the cash from the saddle bag, and handed it to Boss Lu. At this time, Xiao Zeng smiled and said, "Brother Yang, what's the matter?" Let's be righteous, can you give me this dzi? It's easy to say about money or something, no, you just bought a Lamborghini in the parking lot outside, you just drive away. ”
