Chapter 18: Ugly!

There is no residue at all. It is crisp, with small seeds and a sweet and waxy heart. I can't remember how delicious the peaches were! “

She looked at Zhang Xu and said, "I feel like my appreciation of food has been raised to a new level!"

No wonder you don't eat my imported blueberries and raisins.

It's a world of difference compared to the taste of your peaches.

However, such delicious peaches are completely different from what I remember. What's wrong?"

Zhang Xu said lightly: "This fruit may not taste good in the first few years. If you take care of it carefully, you can still eat it. ”

Zhao Ming shook his head. "Not only is it edible, but it's delicious.

Zhang Xu, you have to keep the orchard. There must be a market for such delicious peaches. “

Zhang Xu nodded.

"Yes, I've quit my job and plan to handle it myself."

Zhang Na suddenly remembered something.

"Don't talk about work, I haven't thought about it yet.

Milan attended the Night of Beauty and Stars and uttered the following words.

Milan said that the printer who helped her make her clothes was named Zhang Xu, and he was a regular printer in a factory.

Didn't you work as a model worker in a garment factory?

That person is you! “

Zhang Xu had to admit that he couldn't hide it from her.

"That's it."

Zhang Na's eyes were as wide as a bronze bell.

"That means you've met Milan himself?"

"Yes."

Zhang Xu's gentle attitude made Zhang Na purr.

"When I watched the news with you, I asked if you didn't tell me!

I'm so envious!

What about Milan itself? How are you, does that sound good? “

Zhang Xu raised his eyebrows.

"Not bad."

"Okay?

impossible

Everyone says that her photos are more beautiful than herself!

You must not have taken anyone else seriously.

In any case, you have been officially named by Milan and you will soon be famous.

Your plant will definitely reuse you. In the future, you can make high-end custom dresses specifically for celebrities, and the future is bright.

Why did you quit your job and come back to plant an orchard?

Although your peaches are delicious, growing fruit trees is hard. “

Zhao Ming shook his head helplessly and said to his sister, "You are a star chaser.

Don't I know your pee?

Don't you want Zhang Xu to continue to contact Milan and help you get an autograph? “

Zhang Na said confidently: "Brother, this is not all true. I pursue stardom, mainly for Zhang Xu's future. ”

She changed her tone and said to Zhang Xu: "Zhang Xu, you really don't have her contact information?" ”

Zhang Xu sighed.

"He's a big star. How can he give me contact details.

I've only seen her once, and she's done getting dressed and left. “

Zhang Na is deeply sorry.

"What a pity! You should have asked for a group photo. You've wasted your chance. ”。

Alas, let's forget about it. “

Zhang Xu and Zhao Ming looked at each other and smiled, but their eyes were full of helplessness.

This is a star chaser.

They chatted for a while. Zhao Ming and Zhang Na ate two peaches in a row, slapping their stomachs until they couldn't hold it anymore.

Zhang Xu proposed to go back. Zhang Na has returned from the zombie state. She hurriedly said, "Wait for me." I'm going to throw out the trash. It was a little dark. Please stay with me. ”

Zhang Xu said kindly: "Okay, let's go." ”

"I'll go get the garbage, you're waiting for me at the door!"

Zhang Na immediately got up and went to pick up the garbage.

It is rare to have such an opportunity to be alone with Zhang Xu. She should make good use of it.

After a while, Zhang Xu saw Zhang Na come out with a bag of garbage in her right hand and a potted plant with withered leaves in her left hand.

Curious, he asked, "What is this?" ”

Zhang Na sighed: "Oh, don't mention it, I'll tell you that my brother was deceived."

He recently learned to grow orchids with a student and bought one online, which he died shortly after.

It really cost more than 20,000 yuan!

Why don't you give me this money? “

Zhang Xu was a little surprised.

"Orchids, so expensive?"

Zhang Na began to give him popular science.

"What I didn't know before was what my brother said.

My brother bought some common varieties, some rare varieties, and the price was more expensive.

There are hundreds of millions of them. “

When Zhang Xu heard this, he suddenly became interested.

He's looking for ways to make money. Looks like he can do it!

"If you don't mind, can you give me this pot of orchids?

I'll see if I survive. “

Zhang Na was dumbfounded.

"It's impossible!

This pot of orchids won't die, its roots have rotted, can it still live? “

Zhang Xu said mysteriously: "If I don't try, how do I know?" ”

Zhang Na smiled and said, "Then I'll give it to you, and you will treat this dead horse as a live horse doctor."

My brother would be happy if he could really support it. “

Unknowingly, the two were chatting at a fork in the road.

"The garbage stands in front of you. I walk on the right. Be careful when you go back. ”

"Ah, that's fast!"

Zhang Na is a little lost. She wanted to spend more time with Zhang Xu, but the time was too short.

"Goodbye then."

Looking at Zhang Xu's back, she roared behind him.

"Come to my house for dinner when you have time, I've been preparing for the public exam at home recently, and I'm so idle!"

Zhang Xu waved his hand without looking back.

He didn't care what Zhang Na thought of his youngest daughter. Now he just wants to go home and use his blood to save this precious orchid worth more than 20,000 yuan!

When Zhang Xu got home, he didn't want to do anything else. He first brought the pot of blackened orchids to the backyard.

In the sun, he saw the tragedy of the orchid more clearly.

The leaves are all dry. Zhao Ming dug out the roots of the tree and stuffed them back. The roots of the tree have turned black.

Zhang Xu took a small stool and sat down, ready to make a mess of things.

He suddenly realized that he had scooped out half a basin of blood.

"It's up to us to succeed. If we can turn corruption into magic, then we will have unlimited money. ”

He carefully poured a few drops of blood into the soil, his eyes unblinking, observing the changes in the orchid.

After waiting for two or three seconds, Zhang Xu poured some more blood.

Now something is happening. The volcanic stone particles in the basin's soil trembled slightly, as if something was emerging from the soil below.

Zhang Xu's eyes lit up and he continued to spill blood.

Gradually, he saw a bud in the soil.

"Yes!"

The buds grow faster and turn into thin leaves. The young leaves are tender yellow and grow green.

The leaves are long and thin.

In addition to this leaf, there are other buds that sprout in the soil.

Zhang Xu was very happy. He kept a close eye on the orchid's growth, and when he saw that it was time to stop, he continued to infuse blood.

After Zhang Xu kept pouring blood into a water bottle, there were more than ten leaves in the pot.

These leaves have blue and blue lines and are transparent in the leaves, and the edges of the leaves are very thin.

The leaves are free and elegant, full of beauty.

In the middle of the two leaves, a thin stem sprouts, and a bud appears on the thin stem. The buds bloomed, and more than a dozen golden flowers bloomed!

The golden tongue resembles a piece of red flannel, embellished with golden yellow. This color combination feels like a rape flower in full bloom in March being printed in the setting sun.

If you look closely, this flower has a bit of green on the outer petals, which adds a lot of fun.

Zhang Xu took a deep breath, his nose filled with a delicate fragrance, which made him feel relaxed and happy. This is nature's perfume, far more than chemical perfumes!

Even Zhang Xu, who doesn't understand orchids, can't take his eyes off when he sees such a beautiful orchid.

"The light rain in the sky was as wet as a crisp, and the grass was far away but not near. The best thing about spring is that it is better than the willow trees that fill the imperial capital. ”

"Orchids are really elegant, and they deserve to be called the four gentlemen of flowers along with plum, bamboo, and chrysanthemum.

In ancient times, various scholars and scholars wrote so many poems for it, which is really remarkable.

It is not surprising that such a special golden orchid is worth 20,000 yuan. “

Zhang Xu took out the dried leaves from the plate and fiddled with them. It doesn't look like the plate of dried orchids he brought from Zhang Na. It's a new pot of orchids, and it's blooming too!

"The blood in the bottle of mineral water saved a pot of dead orchids."

Zhang Xu secretly calculated the cost.

Orchids are precious, and his blood is even more precious.

"At least tens of thousands of orchids are worth watering with my blood. Ordinary orchids are too wasteful. ”

After admiring the orchid for a while, Zhang Xu put it in the backyard, planning not to tell Zhang Na and her family about it first.

In less than half an hour, a pot of orchids will come back to life. It's a wild night that others will be suspicious.

"I need to know more about orchids. If I can buy some valuable varieties and keep them well, I can sell them for a lot of money. ”

Thinking about the money, Zhang Xu opened his phone to check the value of the orchid.

The check left him dumbfounded.

There are many enthusiasts chasing orchids, and the precious flowers are very popular.

The most expensive is a pot of orchids named Guizhou Dragon, with a market value of 120 million yuan.

The owner of a pot of spring swords, someone used 36 million yuan, but he couldn't sell it.

The pot preserved by Zhang Xu is called Jin Yangchun, which belongs to the genus Huilan and has been developed for more than ten years.

Some say it's a popular flower, but more people like to praise it, which makes its price keep rising.

A pot worth 20,000 yuan of Jin Yangchun is not expensive.

He wasn't sure how much the pot could sell for in the market, but it could only sell for more than 20,000 yuan.

After seeing so many precious orchids, Zhang Xu opened his eyes.

"If you know how to grow these things, it's going to be very profitable."

This is much easier than planting fruit trees.

"After a while, I will buy some rare orchid varieties and raise them to sell."

However, the expensive orchid seedlings are very expensive and the cost is too high for Zhang Xu to play.

First, renew the lease at the top of the mountain and earn more for the orchid seedlings.

At that point, he will know more about orchids, which will make him more comfortable.

Zhang Xu is happy to find a possible way to make money.

With blood in hand, selling some lawless and precious plants is a profitable way.

We are not worried about the future, but we should overcome the current difficulties.

……

Wanfu Hotel.

Nana took a sliced peach and handed it to Milan, who was watching the news on her phone.

Seeing Milan slowly eating a piece, she couldn't help but swallow the saliva next to her.

"I mentioned Zhang Xu's name on the night of stars, and there will definitely be a lot of people who come to him to do haute couture, which will make him go further in the haute couture industry."

Nana nodded and said, "Your influence is still so great. After you mentioned this, many stylists and agents asked me how to contact Zhang Xu.

However, I did not disclose based on what the lady said. “

Milan said:.

I'm going to let him design my outfits. “

Nana was terrified.

"Miss, think again.

The production of ancient costumes is very complex and requires a deep cultural heritage.

He was just an ordinary printer. He did not make any costumes for this purpose. Will he be able to do it in such a short time?

When the time comes, fans will use a magnifying glass to find fault and cause controversy, which will definitely affect the rating of this show. “

Milan insisted: "Do at least one thing, choose an important scene to do for him."

We can provide him with information about the style.

I am sure that with his wisdom, he will be able to give me a good answer. “

Nana smiled.

"It's another test, isn't it?"

Milan nodded. When she reached for the peaches again, she found the plate empty.

"That's all there are peaches this time?"

Nana sighed.

"This is the last one. After eating, it was literally gone. ”

Milan frowned.

"Call the factory and ask where you bought the peaches. By the way, I would like to pay attention to Zhang Xu's recent situation.

I always felt that his factory manager would embarrass him. “

"Okay, I'll call right away."

Nana had wanted to make this call for a long time. She wanted to buy such delicious peaches and come back to eat.

Most of the peaches she brought back last time were donated to Milan, so she could only swallow saliva nearby.

If she can buy in large quantities, she will be able to open up.

Nana called Luo Qiang. Once connected, she turned on the speakers so Milan could hear their conversation.

"Hello, Nana! I have read the report. I saw Miss Milan sparkling on a starry night and she won the award for Best Dress in our bespoke evening dress. Congratulate! ”

Nana said calmly: "Thank you, your clothes are well customized, and we will cooperate with you in the future."

I would like to ask, where did you buy peaches last time I was at your factory?

I think it's delicious. I would like to buy some more. “

Luo Qiang was stunned. He didn't expect Nana to call him and ask Momoko.

Luo Qiang was stunned for a moment, and said to Nana enthusiastically: "I'm not sure about Peach, I'm going to ask my secretary."

She came to arrange the food.

Nana, wait a minute. I'll call you back shortly. “

Luo Qiang came back soon.

"Nana, the secretary said she didn't buy peaches that day. She inquired around and found that the peaches were brought by our Director Wang.

He said he bought it at a roadside stall. “

Xiao Li did ask Li Xu this question, but Li Xu thought that Luo Qiang wanted to eat and deliberately gave her an ambiguous answer.

He didn't want Luo Qiang to eat such delicious peaches.

Nana, who got the answer, looked at Milan and immediately understood.

"Li Xu, please give me Director Wang's phone number."

Luo Qiang was stunned again. He didn't want to give Li Xu's phone number to the customer, but the customer couldn't help but ask.

He had to force himself to give Nana Li Xu's phone number.

"By the way, Zhang Xu, the former designer who adjusted the dress for us in Milan, can we still find him customized?"

Hearing the name of "Zhang Xu", Luo Qiang on the other end of the phone suddenly became gloomy.

He remembered the scene of Zhang Xu playing around that day, and his baby son Luo Ming was still recuperating in the ward.

However, two days ago, he found the Beard Gang to help him clean up Zhang Xu. Presumably Zhang Xu soon had bad news.

In a flash of inspiration, back to the present, Luo Qiang officially answered Nana's words.

"The average printer in the branding department asked the company to resign and go home for personal reasons.

Custom-made clothes can still come to us. Our Lao Liu is good at customizing clothes, and he will serve you.

As long as we are given enough time this time, we will be able to make clothes that are satisfactory to each other. “

A hint of displeasure flashed in Milan's eyes. She glanced at Nana and made a crossover gesture.

Nana suddenly realized that she was unhappy, and said to Luo Qiang: "Li Xu, we are very interested in Zhang Xu's ability, we just want to find him to customize for us."

Now that he's resigned, you should take into account that you haven't heard of custom clothing. “

"No, Nana..."

Despite Luo Qiang's detention, Nana immediately hung up the phone and looked at Milan.

"Miss, Zhang Xu is no longer in the factory. What do we do next? ”

Milan's slender fingers tapped lightly on the table, looking into the eyes.

"He said that Zhang Xu resigned and went home, which was false, and he forced Zhang Xu away.

However, it's also good enough to achieve my goals.

When Zhang Xu leaves the factory, we can save the step of leaving the factory. “

Nana smiled.

"The director must be angry.

He deserves it. People like him who don't value talent don't deserve to have good talent.

There is no need to go to such a small factory anymore.

Miss, the next step is to support Zhang Xu to become a famous haute couture designer? “

"Let me think again."

"Okay, miss, I'll call Director Wang first, I'll be in front of Luo Qiang."

And they were right. Luo Qiang was hung up by Nana. When he called Li Xu for the first time, he told Li Xu not to talk casually in front of guests, especially about Zhang Xu.

Li Xu was surprised that Nana asked about Peaches.

However, he agreed with Luo Qiang, even though it was only superficially perfunctory.

Privately, Luo Qiang didn't care how he talked to Nana on the phone.

After Luo Qiang hung up the phone, Nana's call came in.

"Director Wang, I met Nana that day.

I want to ask you, where did you buy peaches? “

Li Xu smiled and said truthfully: "It's Nana, I hope you can keep Peaches' secret from the factory director."

Because my colleague Zhang Xu planted peaches in his orchard. “

Nana and Milan looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes.

Zhang Xu's peaches are so delicious?

They believe that Zhang Xu's identity is just that of a printmaker.

Nana gestured with Milan's eyes and asked, "I won't tell your director."

I heard that Zhang Xu resigned. Where is he going next? Do you know Director Wang? “

Li Xu's eyes lit up.

They work in the clothing industry and will pay attention to a lot of clothing information public accounts. He saw the report from Milan and found that she mentioned Zhang Xu's name.

I'm afraid Nana wants to continue to cooperate with Zhang Xu.

Li Xu will definitely help Zhang Xu.

"Zhang Xu, his late grandfather left him an orchard, and he went home to plant fruit trees.

Nana, if you want to customize with him, I can take you. “

Milan nodded to Nana and motioned for her to have an in-depth conversation with Li Xu.
