Chapter 36: Shang (3)

Under the shade of the willow trees by the release pond, there are about forty or fifty peonies and peonies in full bloom neatly arranged, there are many people watching, and there are many bargainers, most of them are richly dressed, arrogant, pick and choose, but there are also those who are dressed plainly, watch the excitement on the side, circle around the flowers, every time they see a successful transaction, when a large amount of money is transferred from the buyer's hand to the seller's hand, their faces are full of envy.

Peony was not good at equestrianism, and after carefully getting off the horse, he threw the reins to Yuhe, pulled Zhang and Sun, and also surrounded them. But there are far more varieties than she imagined, although there are no Yao Huang, Wei Zi, Doulu, Lantian Jade and the like, but there are also a few traditional and precious varieties such as Erqiao, Dahuhong, and Zhao Fen. There are also some varieties that have probably been lost in later generations, so she can't name them.

After careful observation, Peony had a number in his heart. She understood why Yao Huang and Wei Zi, who she married, and the pot of jade building Diancui would become the object of Liu Chang's show-off, why the county lord of Qinghua wanted to occupy it, and why Pan Rong flattered her and wanted to buy it at a high price.

First of all, from the point of view of color, most of these flowers are monochromatic, and there are very few compound colors. Among them, pink and red account for the vast majority, yellow, fuchsia and white are very rare, and blue and green are completely missing, not to mention the most popular black in modern times. Even among the existing colors, there is no real color of red and yellow, red is reddish and purple, and yellow is white. If you want to be a blockbuster, you need to be rich.

Secondly, from the point of view of the flowering period, the peony flowering period is shorter, and concentrated, after this season can no longer be watched, so many flowers, open in the same period, but there are only a few people who buy, the price and quantity can not go up, you can only watch it thanks. In normal times, customers can't see the scene when the flowers are in full bloom, so it is naturally impossible to buy them at a high price. So if you really want to make it bigger and longer, you have to think of a way to extend the flowering period.

Thirdly, judging from the shape of the flowers, there are not many peony varieties placed here, and most of them are single and semi-double. Obviously, customers generally prefer semi-double-petaled and double-petaled flowers, especially the dignified, large and plump flower types are the most popular, and the price is higher. But Peony believes that even if it is a single-petal variety, if the color is rare, the flower shape is upright, the petals are straight, not drooping, and not deformed, it also has its own appreciation value, and it can still be sold at a high price when you meet someone you like. For example, Yubanbai is such a representative. It's a pity that I didn't have time to get a joint from Liu Chang's jade banbai!

Peony let out a slight breath, a smile rose, give her time, she is completely sure to breed a new variety! She can live the rich life she wants with her own hands without relying on anyone!

Zhang pointed to one of the plants that was blooming just right, and said with a smile: "Dan Niang! This strain is good, buy this! ”

The owner of the flower was a middle-aged man in sackcloth, and when he saw that a guest had taken a fancy to his flowers, he hurriedly got up to greet him, pointed out to everyone, and boasted: "Everyone, please see, it's not me boasting, among these flowers today, I am the best flower!" You see, there are eight buds, and now there are six of them, and there are three flower types on the same plant! ”

The peony leaned over and saw that this big red plant was indeed good, with light red petals, pink petals, a corolla five inches wide (about 17 centimeters), two inches high (about 8 centimeters), and the pistil petals turned into tender green colored petals. Among the six flowers, there are three types of flowers: crown-type, lotus-type, and Tuogui type, which are indeed the first among these flowers today, but they have not been sold for a long time, and they must be worth a lot of money. smiled and said, "Big brother, how much do you plan to spend this flower?" ”

The flower owner glanced at the peony people, shook his head deliberately, and sighed: "Little lady, if you ask casually, you don't need to ask, so I don't have to open my mouth, and you say that I am a liar." ”

Seeing that he looked down on people, Sun Shi became unconvinced, and said with a light smile: "Why don't you tell me to hear about it?" Is it a deception, as soon as the big guys hear it, don't they all know it? ”

When the flower owner heard this, he stretched out a finger and said, "One hundred thousand dollars!" ”

Peony was stunned, turned around and asked Sun in a low voice: "Sixth sister-in-law, how much is a bucket of rice now?" ”

Sun first whispered in her ear: "One hundred and fifty dollars a bucket, and the best one hundred and eighty dollars to two hundred dollars are also available." Then he said loudly to the man who sold flowers: "Your flower is outstanding, but it is not worth 100,000 yuan!" ”

Seeing this, the people around all gathered around to see the excitement. One of them wore a jade-colored round-necked robe, hooked nose and eagle eyes, was in his thirties, tall and strong, and said with a smile: "Zou Laoqi, I said a long time ago that your money is not worth so much, and I sold it for 60,000 yuan, so I bought it." ”

The flower owner known as Zou Laoqi clasped his hands and said, "I'm going to sell so much!" When you look at the flowers these days, you can see who is better than mine? ”

Everyone just laughed, but said, "Thank you in a few days." ”

Zou Laoqi rolled his eyes: "Then so-and-so will keep the autumn to sell joints!" ”

His popularity is probably not very good, and everyone waved their sleeves at him and said, "In this case, what are you doing here every day?" How many joints do you have in this flower? Although Da Hu Hong is good, where can he compare to Yao Huang and Wei Zi? How many years will it take you to sell for this price? Beware of falling prices! ”

Peony doesn't care about the hustle and bustle of others, only bows his head and calculates, according to the modern algorithm, a bucket of rice is about 12 catties, according to 200 yuan a bucket of rice, 100,000 yuan is 6,000 catties of rice, obediently, enough for how many people to eat for a year? It turned out that Pan Rong was willing to pay one million yuan for her to buy Wei Zi and Yulou Diancui, and it was really a high price, no wonder Pan Rong was angry like that when she refused, saying that she didn't know what to do. But judging from the madness of modern people's hype of orchids, what is it?

She bowed her head here to settle the account, but Zou Laoqi took her anger out on her, and said impatiently: "That little lady, do you buy it or not?" ”

For this kind of appreciation, the peony is to understand the market, and I don't really plan to buy it. What she wants to buy are rare and native varieties dug up from the mountains and fields, or flowers that have produced mutations, so that they can be easily cross-bred. But today, there is nothing suitable. Besides, this Zou Laoqi's attitude was so bad that she was about to shake her head, when Zhang, who had been silent before, suddenly opened her mouth: "Seventy thousand dollars!" If you sell it, we will buy it. ”

Peony hurriedly stopped her: "Fifth sister-in-law, don't ......"

"Isn't it just a flower? Sister-in-law, I bought it and gave it to you! Zhang shook her hand, motioned her not to speak, and looked at Zou Laoqi seriously: "I'm simply, you are also simple!" To sell or not to sell? ”

Zou Laoqi hesitated a little, and was about to speak, when the bearded man who was wearing a jade white shirt suddenly said: "Seventy-five thousand yuan, sell it to me!" ”

When Zou Laoqi heard this, he scratched his ears and cheeks with joy, but he looked at Zhang with his eyes again, and said, "This lady, you see? "This beard, I don't know where it came from, I went around here for several days, bought a lot of flowers, and came to ask him the price every day, but every time the price was kept low. Now that someone is going to buy it, you can't stand it, right?

Being rushed to buy something, it's just bullying them for being women! Both the Zhang family and the Sun family were furious, glaring at the man fiercely and saying in unison: "Eighty thousand dollars!" ”

Sun quickly whispered to Zhang: "Let's take half of each of us!" "Although Zhang's and Peony are closer, he is also Peony's sixth sister-in-law, how can the fifth sister-in-law send something, but the sixth sister-in-law doesn't send it? It's not that there is no money.

Zhang didn't say good, nor did he say bad, he just looked at the beard provocatively.

The beard glanced at Zhang and Sun coldly, and said to Zou Laoqi: "Eighty-five thousand!" ”

Sun was about to speak, but Peony hurriedly stopped them and said to Zou Laoqi: "We don't want it." "It's not something that is clearly priced, what I'm most afraid of encountering is this kind of coaxing, who knows if they have done a game? According to the price that Zhang said before, she still thinks it is cost-effective, what if such a vicious bidding continues, what should she do if she is trapped? So resolutely don't, it's best to withdraw in time!

Although Zhang and Sun disagreed, they respected Peony's opinion.

Zou Laoqi was so sorry, but he looked at the beard and said, "Add more, it's yours!" ”

The beard sneered: "The human heart is not enough to swallow the elephant!" ”

"100,000 dollars, sell it to me!" With this loud shout, Liu Chang strode over, glared at Peony viciously, resisted the urge to rush over and strangle her, raised his hands and chested behind his back and stared at the beard fiercely, and secretly thought: Dead woman! Did she think that if she moved away her pots of broken flowers, there would be no flowers to be rewarded in the Liu Mansion from now on? He's not unusual! As long as you have money, what can't you buy?

Sun and Zhang exchanged glances, stepped forward to protect the peony firmly, and the servants and maids of the He family also hugged them.

Zou Lao Qi was overjoyed, and looked back at the beard: "This Langjun is out of 100,000." ”

I thought it was nine out of ten, but who knew that there was a fierce Zhang Fei in the oblique stab, not to mention that the expression was so bad! Although the bearded man saw that Liu Chang was well-dressed and his demeanor was flamboyant, he seemed to be a noble son, but he was not afraid, and said viciously: "110,000!" ”

Liu Chang sneered: "120,000!" Proudly said to Zou Laoqi: "No matter how much he pays, I will always be higher than him!" ”

The bearded man saw that he was here to find fault, and he couldn't figure out whether he had offended him, or if he was in a group with Peony and others. He no longer had the same knowledge as this gentleman, and only looked at Zou Laoqi and said, "I heard that your courtyard is close to Baekje Temple?" These flowers were given to you by the monks? ”

When Zou Laoqi heard him say this, he suddenly changed color and said, "Is it all about you!" Then he turned back and asked Peony: "Little lady, do you really want it?" ”

Since Peony saw Liu Changshi, he guessed that he must have been drinking with Pan Rong just now, so he was a little flustered, although he was not afraid that he would call him on the spot, but he didn't want to take the initiative to provoke him, where did he dare to rush to buy things with him, not to mention that it was so expensive. At that moment, he clenched the horsewhip with one hand, shook his head and said, "Don't." ”

Zou Laoqi didn't look at the beard, and said to Liu Chang: "This Langjun, it's yours!" ”

Liu Chang didn't care about the murderous gaze of the beard, and pointed at Xi Xia lightly: "Wait, follow and get the money later!" Looking back, Peony had already gone to the other side with a group of people from the Zhang family and the Sun family, completely treating herself as nothing, and couldn't help but grit her teeth and clench her fists, this hateful dead woman!

The peony had already been defeated and was about to leave, but I saw two young men in ragged clothes and bast shoes carefully carrying a pink single-petaled purple-spotted peony about a person high, and walked towards this side with anticipation on their faces. As soon as the peony looked, it knew that the purple-spotted peony was wild! That's what she wants!

Peony changed her mind and went up to meet the two young men, "Do you want to sell this flower too?" ”

When Liu Chang saw it, he followed with a gloomy face.
