Legend has it that Jianlan was brought to Suruga in the island country by Xu Fu, the envoy of Qin Shi Huang, when he went to the island country to seek the elixir of life, and it was also called Suruga Orchid.

It's just that no matter what the legend is, there is a large area in the local mountains, and no one wants ordinary varieties.

The slightly better ones are also made into medicines, and only those with very beautiful forms will be collected and sold.

As soon as Qian Junbao came in, he saw a very tall orchid full of yellow flowers, and he stepped forward to identify it carefully, this should be an orchid called iron bones.

This orchid has excellent character and is a high-quality variety of Jianlan heartflower.

Due to the toughness and hard texture of the orchid leaves, they are like iron skin; The peduncle is thin and erect, if it is iron, so it is named "iron bone".

When he saw a friend buy a pot, the value of this pot of orchids was not particularly expensive, three taels of silver a pot.

Ye Qing turned around and found that although this flower shop looked quite big, it sold mostly some ordinary flowers and plants, and the store also marked the price in order to save trouble.

However, the prices of flowers and plants here are mostly less than one tael of silver.

Occasionally, you can see more than a dozen taels of silver in a pot, and most of them are orchids, and then there are some small bonsai plants, as well as some small water lilies raised in water tanks.

Ye Qing didn't know much about orchids, so she naturally only looked at the flowers and plants with high prices.

It's a pity that the most expensive thing in the store is a pot of 20-year-old Junzi Orchid, with a price tag of 66 taels.

Ye Qing contacted Xiao Ye for a while, checked the flower, and found that he could only exchange for a few hundred points, so he was not interested at all.

As for other bonsai, they are basically common trees, miniature versions, and they are not worth a few dollars, and they can be replaced with a few space gold coins.

Just when Ye Qing was about to leave due to lack of interest, an old man and a young man walked in.

The old man looked to be about sixty years old, and he was already full of silver hair.

And the young man Ye Qing has also seen it, isn't it that Shangguan Yongchang?

However, although Shangguan Yongchang saw Qian Junbao and them, he didn't come forward to greet Qian Junbao at all, and Qian Junbao naturally wouldn't be bored.

The old man held a pot of orchids in his hand and handed it to the shopkeeper of the flower shop.

Soon the helpless voice of Shopkeeper You sounded, "Master Shangguan! Look at the top of the leaves of this orchid...... Ay......

I'm really powerless, why don't you choose another pot in my store and go back? ”

But Shangguan Kai obviously couldn't put down the pot of orchids in his hand, and his eyes were full of pain.

Ye Qing also looked over, the pot of orchid grass looked good rough, dark green leaves, narrow leaf width, deep leaf grooves, thin and erect flower stalks.

The form is like a landscape painting, and the orchid leaves are better than the orchids, which is definitely the love of these literati!

Unfortunately, some leaves have a lot of white dots, and one leaf is already a little withered.

"Shopkeeper You, help the old man think of a way, this pot of bluegrass is really important to the old man, if you can cure it, the old man is willing to give you three hundred taels of silver." Shangguan Kai gritted his teeth and said.

Ye Qing looked at the old man with some surprise, she was a little curious in her heart, and wanted to know what kind of orchid the pot was.

It is worth the old man to spend three hundred taels to be treated.

Shopkeeper You shook his head with a wry smile, "There's really nothing you can do, Master Shangguan!" Look here......

These are the best varieties that have just come in, and if you don't like it, I have a few pots in the backyard that will be brought out for you to palm. ”

Shangguan Kai shook his head, in fact, what Master Shangguan had in his hand was an ordinary pot of Molan, but although it was not rare, this flower was actually not Master Shangguan's.

It was a friend of Shangguan Kai who lost his official position and asked his son to send it over a year and a half ago during the New Year's greetings.

said that he went to the north for fear of dying if he didn't adapt to the climate there, and knew that Shangguan Kai loved orchids and wanted him to help take care of it.

He also said that this orchid, he has been raising it for 20 years, just like the friendship between them, I hope that Shangguan Kai can remember that there is such a friend as him when he sees the orchid.

At the beginning, Shangguan Kai didn't care that such a pot was not too rare Molan, but he looked at the flower shape and kept it casually.

This year, his friend was reinstated, and said that he would return to his hometown to reunite with his family during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and said that he would come to visit Shangguan Kai, and he specially mentioned the pot of orchids in the letter.

It's a pity that Shangguan Kai usually neglects to take care of this orchid, and now the leaves of the orchid are not only insect-grown, but also a little wilted.

He originally cut off a leaf, but found that it did not do anything about the orchid's condition, and it also affected the beauty.

Now that friend is coming back in two months, if he sees such an orchid, it is estimated that he will have a mustard in his heart.

thought that when he was down, he asked Shangguan Kai about it, but Shangguan Kai didn't take it to heart.

Originally, Shangguan Kai didn't like this friend so much.

However, Shangguan Kai's friend has now become the deputy chief examiner selected by the imperial court to the Jianzhou territory, presiding over the township examination on August 26 this year.

The chief examiners in each state are all sent by the emperor, and those who take the middle test are called "lifting people", so even if Shangguan Kai's friend is only a deputy chief examiner, the weight is also very heavy.

Especially his grandson Shangguan Yongchang is going to take the exam this year, and the relationship between Shangguan Kai and this person cannot be broken no matter what.

If the orchid is completely dead, Shangguan Kai is worried that he will break off the friendship between them.

Shangguan Kai saw that there was no hope of saving the flowers, and suddenly thought of something, so he whispered to the shopkeeper You: "Then find a pot of flowers like this flower for the old man." ”

Shopkeeper You looked at the pot of Mo Lan, shook his head and said: "I really don't have this variety of Mo Lan in my store, I advise you to always want to open a little bit and change a new pot of flowers."

This flower has been looking at it for twenty years, and it can be regarded as the end of its life, so it is better to find a good place for it. ”

Shangguan Kai shook his sigh and left the shopkeeper with the flower in his arms.

In fact, Ye Qing was moved when he heard the reward of three hundred taels before, but when he thought that it was Shangguan's eternal thing, he didn't have the heart to help.

"Let's go, too." Ye Qing said.

"Why don't you buy a pot of flowers and go back?" Qian Junbao asked.

Ye Qing touched her nose, didn't she know much about Lan, and besides, she came to buy flowers and plants for the space gold coins.

But it's all here, and Qian Junbao also said, just buy a pot.

"Shopkeeper, how much silver is that pot of flowers?" Ye Qing casually pointed to a pot of orchids that looked like leeks, turned his head and asked.

Shopkeeper You grinned and replied, "You can take the two taels of silver." ”

Ye Qing didn't need Qian Junbao to pay, he took out two silver buns and handed them to Shopkeeper You, and then ordered: "Duoduo, you go over and pick up the flowers." ”

Shopkeeper You was stunned, but he didn't make a counteroffer?

However, he quickly smiled and asked, "A few guest officers, do you want to buy something else?" ”

"No need."
