Chapter 236: Gentleman's Orchid

No matter how small the deal is, you have to bargain, not to mention that it's twenty or thirty dollars a month.

Even if Xu Shiyan has money, he can't spend it lavishly, the province must save it.

The two sides talked for a while, grinding dollar by dollar, and finally the landlord Aunt Zhang gave in to twenty-three yuan a month.

The bedding, firewood, and kitchen belongings were all used by Xu Shiyan.

Xu Shiyan felt that this was okay, so he settled down and gave the first month's rent and a deposit of ten yuan on the spot.

Then they went back to the inn, moved all their luggage and belongings to the accommodation here, and checked out.

Later, under the guidance of Uncle Zhang, I went to the nearby market and bought some rice noodles, oil, seasonings, meat, vegetables, lunch boxes, dishes and chopsticks and other things.

Now that the city has also been opened, you don't have to ask for a ticket, anyway, if you don't have a ticket, the price will be higher.

If it's high, it's high, and the money saved by having a hotel is basically enough.

Borrowing the landlord's household belongings to cook, it is natural to stagger the time to cook with others.

The old couple had nothing to do, two meals a day, and Aunt Zhang started cooking at three o'clock in the afternoon.

Xu Shiyan was idle, so he went to the East House to find Uncle Zhang to chat.

"Uncle, my aunt likes Junzi Orchid very much, and she has several pots at home."

Xu Shiyan looked at the few Junzi orchids on the windowsill, and there was only one big pot in the four pots, with more than a dozen leaves, which could bloom after a while.

The remaining three pots have only seven or eight leaves, which should be two-year-old seedlings, and it is estimated that they are separated from the larger one.

There are only four pots of Junzi Orchid on the windowsill, and nothing else, so Xu Shiyan said that Aunt Zhang should like Junzi Orchid very much.

"My little sister also likes it, and she has several pots and varieties at home, and the flowers are all beautiful."

Xu Shiyan didn't think about anything else, just chatted casually.

The speaker had no intention of hearing the listener's heart, and Uncle Zhang immediately widened his eyes when he heard it.

"Oh, you have a gentleman's orchid in your family? All those varieties?

It's a pity that it's far away, if it's close, you have to go to your house to see, and there are good varieties to buy a few back.

This thing is worth a lot of money now, and my big one is now bidding hundreds. ”

"Before, this one was sold for two hundred at most, and the documents above and below said that the highest price was not allowed to exceed two hundred.

But the more you don't let the price go up, the more the price will rise.

Isn't this the beginning of spring this year, and our provincial city held a Junzi Lan Yi Exhibition? Heck, all of a sudden, the price is going up even faster.

Just these few small seedlings are worth dozens of dollars now, and if they are raised for another year or two to bloom, they can be sold for hundreds. ”

Uncle Zhang introduced excitedly, and at the same time felt that it was a pity that Xu Shiyan's house was too far away, and he couldn't go to Taoden good varieties.

Uncle Zhang's words were like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, splitting Xu Shiyan's chaotic memory.

Yes, yes, how could he forget such an important thing?

In the early eighties, the provincial town fried Junzi Orchid to the point of popularity.

It is said that a Hong Kong businessman once came in person, and in order to buy a pot of the best phoenix-crowned gentleman's orchid, he proposed to exchange it for a crown car, but no one sold it to him.

There is also a person in Harbin who spent 50,000 yuan to buy a pot of Junzi Orchid.

I heard that at that time, the Monarch Orchid was called the "Green Gold Bar", and it was definitely a hard currency at that time, and you could go directly to the store to exchange things with a pot of Monarch Orchid.

At this time in the previous life, Xu Shiyan was still in the big house, and the news over there was blocked, and when they heard this, it would be several years later.

At that time, the wind of the provincial city to fry Junzilan had already blown, and I don't know how many people fried this and ended up bankrupt, and the person who took the lead in organizing the exhibition was also sentenced.

A crazy hype, in the end, only a piece of chicken feathers and a gentleman's orchid seedlings that were thrown away in the garbage heap.

Xu Shiyan's heart was beating wildly.

When paying the hospitalization fee in the morning, Xu Shiqin also said that he didn't know where the next surgery fee would come from, wouldn't this be there?

The pot on the windowsill of Uncle Zhang's house is an ordinary variety, and a pot can be sold for hundreds, and the ones cultivated by Xu Shiqin must be more expensive.

I don't know what his sixth sister thinks, anyway, I like Junzilan very much.

In the past few years, Xu Shiqin has searched for flower seedlings everywhere, and also pollinated and kept seeds by himself to cultivate small seedlings.

There are now nearly 100 large and small Junzi orchid seedlings in the family, and there are more than 100 rooms in the two houses, and the windowsills are full of Junzi orchids.

Zhou Guilan said it, Xu Shiqin didn't listen to it, and she was meticulous every day.

If they are sold in a good time, how much can they be exchanged?

As soon as Xu Shiyan thought of this, he felt that his heart was about to jump to his throat.

"Uncle, Junzilan is so valuable? It can't be fooling around, right? It's just a pot of flowers, does anyone buy it? ”

Xu Shiyan deliberately said this in order to provoke the old man.

Sure enough, Uncle Zhang was immediately unhappy when he heard it, "Then why is it worthless?"

What is this? Clivia. When Emperor Xuantong was raised in the palace, where did the common people see it?

Emperor Xuantong fell, and the head gardener in the palace got the seeds to spread out, which was spread among the people. ”

"People say that Junzilan is elegant and handsome, and has the style of a gentleman.

Its flowers are like orchids, leaves, flowers, fruits and beautiful, one season of flowers, three seasons of fruits, four seasons of leaves, that is the general flower can be compared? ”

Uncle Zhang had a calm face and gave Xu Shiyan a lecture.

Xu Shiyan hurriedly made an expression of sudden realization, and nodded again and again, "Yes, yes, or the uncle is powerful and educated."

I'm from a small ravine, so I really don't understand this.

If you say so according to the uncle, Junzilan is quite valuable, a few hundred yuan per tree, and it will catch up with a year's salary. ”

At this time, if you follow Uncle Zhang's words, you will directly coax the old man with fried hair.

Xu Shiyan's sentence came from the ravine, and he didn't understand anything, which made Uncle Zhang's heart suddenly feel beautiful, and a sense of superiority arose.

"Yes, you said that if you hadn't come to the provincial capital, would you have seen so many high-rise buildings?

If you don't understand, you can read and ask more, don't talk nonsense. ”

"Yes, yes, that's what Uncle said." Xu Shiyan was not annoyed.

"Uncle, if you want to buy Junzi Lan, where to go?

As soon as I heard my uncle say this, I wanted to go to Taoden a few more good seedlings and go home. Xu Shiyan asked deliberately.

"Oh, it's winter, it's not the right time, I can't buy it.

In the summer, there is a street market at the end of Hongqi Street, where many people sell flowers and buy flowers. ”

Uncle Zhang didn't know what Xu Shiyan was thinking, so he only shook his head regretfully and casually said an address.

Xu Shiyan kept the address of Hongqi Street firmly in mind at that time, and he really didn't rush this year, but next year and the year after that.

At this time, Aunt Zhang prepared a meal and brought it in.

When Xu Shiyan saw it, he hurriedly went out, picked vegetables, washed vegetables, cut meat, and stir-fried vegetables.

In winter, there are no fresh vegetables in the provincial capital, radishes, cabbage, potatoes, and all of these.

Stir-fried potato chips with meat, stir-fried cabbage slices with meat, and steamed buns bought before, a meal is ready.

So he put it in the newly bought and cleaned lunch box, and then cleaned up the kitchen, Xu Shiyan went straight to the hospital with the food.

"Little sister, this time you don't have to worry about the cost of the operation, my brother knows a way to make money."
