Pamper Eighties

What's so strange about the orchids of the old Feng family? In the eyes of the Japanese, this is a huge quirk.

Look at the two orchids planted in this broken pottery pot, with sparse and thin green leaves, surrounded by a bunch of flower bones in the middle. There is also a slight yellow in the middle, the elegant tone, and the green silk veins, which make them look as small and delicate as jade carvings.

Speaking of its delicate petals, it looks like the fairy peach in the heavenly palace, and like the fingertips provoked by the fairies, the lines are full, the beauty is natural, and there is an indescribable elegance and taste, which is in line with the spiritual pursuit of the Japanese.

The Japanese don't like those colorful things. You can tell from the clothes they wear. They are all shirts. People in Taoyuan Village like to wear colorful or patterned ones. The shirts the Japanese wear are either white or blue. Yes, add a stripe at most, it's boring, they like that.

Of course, these are the feelings of the Japanese. In the eyes of Mrs. Feng, the miserable little broken flowers are not unusual at all. She has a lot of them in her family. Mengmeng has loved planting flowers since she was a child. There were so many orchids that she couldn't hold them, so she moved them all home. She kept two pots in one room, and there were a lot of them in the corridor, like leek seedlings.

The two pots in the canteen, because the broken pottery pot and the rotten tree stump were too pickled, so Mrs. Feng didn't bother to move them. Unexpectedly, there were Japanese people who were interested in them.

What kind of person is Mrs. Feng? She is a human being. She immediately thought of Japan's sky-high orchids. Looking at the reactions of these Japanese people, maybe her orchids are worth a lot of money. Well, it's a bit interesting. She observes first.

The Japanese have carefully studied this pot of orchid, and they have been chatting non-stop. Nowadays, the orchid fever is popular in Japan. It happens that Taro Yamamoto is such a person who loves orchids. A frenzy burst forth, and gibberish shouted:

"Lotus with crown of lotus petals! You gentlemen, this is the "treasure of flowers" lotus with crown of petals, a rare treasure. Miyata-kun just bought one last year and spent 8,000... Ahem, you should all listen I've said it before. There are actually two plants here, and they are even better in appearance. God of Rizhao, China is really my blessed land! Tian Jun, you ask her how much these two orchids are going to sell for?"

"How much? Hahaha," Madam Feng smiled happily, she narrowed her shrewd eyes and said, "You Japanese, you are too discerning, this is an orchid that my old lady spent 30 years raising. , there are only two such plants in the world.”

She put on a nostalgic look and told the story slowly: "Thirty years ago, it rained heavily one day, and the thunder and lightning were frightening. I still remember it clearly, that day I went to the mountain. Collecting herbs, I was chased by a poisonous snake for a long time, and I don't know how long I have traveled. It is about to be caught up by it. Guess what, at this time, the rain stopped, the thunder stopped, the sky Two rainbows appeared, and a fairy stood on top of one. The fairy was so beautiful, she killed the poisonous snake with two strokes. Before I could look closely, the two fairies disappeared. Now, these two orchids appeared on the ground, and I knew at the time that they were good things, and it took a lot of effort to dig them back home, and it took me 30 years to raise them to become what they are today."

Mrs. Feng's ability to make up stories is very good. She tells Mengmeng every day and she has practiced it a long time ago, but the Japanese don't know wow, they understand one thing, these two orchids are a godsend , No wonder it can grow such a fairy-like appearance.

"Ten thousand yuan," Yamamoto Taro said loudly: "Tian Jun, you told her ten thousand yuan, I bought it from her, no no no, ten thousand yuan to buy a plant, twenty thousand yuan, RMB ."

After Mrs. Feng listened to the translation, her face was directly drawn to the elder, and she waved her hands to drive the Japanese: "Go, don't lie to my old lady here, you Japanese are so bad, think I don't know, An orchid can be exchanged for a building, or a skyscraper, I have seen it in the newspapers, and you still want to lie to me, **** your mother, my two orchids are worth at least 200 million."

When he said this, Oda was stunned at first, and then the Japanese were also stunned. The old woman dared to know the market. Look at this ordinary canteen, which hides sky-high orchids. This ordinary small mountain village , there are also precious wild vegetables and Ganoderma lucidum, not to mention the precious medicinal materials such as Dendrobium candidum. God, what kind of place is this? The legendary paradise is nothing more than this.

Seeing Mrs. Feng's angry look, Taro Yamamoto understood that his wishful thinking was in vain. He thought he had picked up a big leak, but he didn't expect to meet an expert here.

He bowed 90 degrees to Mrs. Feng, and when he stood up again, his face was full of respect, and he said with a hint of luck: "The lotus petals and crowns are very precious, but they are not worth two buildings. , not worth two hundred million, so, two orchids, one hundred thousand, I'm talking about dollars."

God, 100,000 US dollars, after listening to the old lady Feng, she decided The opening is 100,000, or US dollars, hahaha, made a fortune.

She was stunned for a long time without speaking, which made Taro Yamamoto mistakenly think that she was not satisfied with the price, so she gritted her teeth and increased the price again: "Can't you? Then... 150,000, no, 160,000, do you feel satisfied?"

Old Madam Feng's eyes couldn't turn, her whole face was wooden, and she had no expression at all, forcing Yamamoto Taro to increase the price again and again. When she realized that, the price of the two orchids had already risen. Two hundred and thirty thousand dollars.

Mrs. Feng's mind was completely refreshed, and she stared at Taro Yamamoto and said very firmly: "No, this price is too low, you have to add a little more, um... $250,000, no bargaining."

"Hi!" It was Yamamoto Taro's more determined voice who answered her.

Madam Feng blinked and said, "What is he talking about?"

Oda was stunned, standing there and murmuring, "Mr. Yamamoto said the deal, old lady, your two orchids sold for $250,000, and you've made a fortune."

Madam Feng wanted to laugh out loud, but she had to hold it back desperately, almost to the point of having a stomachache, her face turned red, she squinted at Xiao Tian and said, "You don't have any knowledge of this, right? $250,000 is nothing at all. I still lost money. If it wasn't for the fact that he really wanted it, I wouldn't be willing to sell it. Want to take my flowers."

The Japanese discussed it and decided to go back to raise money on the spot. They were even more anxious than Mrs. Feng. Taking these two orchids back to Japan and selling them would be one or two times the profit. This trip was too much. worth it.

The Japanese left halfway, and the old lady Feng also told the old man the good news. Now the two precious orchids have been hidden by her at home. Together with the other orchids, they were all locked in the house and sent to send Huzi is guarding outside, and no one can steal them.

"I didn't expect our orchids to be so valuable, $250,000, old man, figure out how much it is." Madam Feng felt like she was dreaming, and her heart was still pounding. Woolen cloth.

Old Man Feng pondered for a while before saying, "$250,000 can be exchanged for 600,000 to 700,000 in the bank. The black market is different, at least 1.78 million, and maybe 2 million. of."

"Oh my god, it's so valuable, two million, old man, you're right, why is there such a big difference?" Madam Feng covered her chest and couldn't believe her ears.

The old man Feng told her what he knew: "I read the newspaper recently, and I have researched it. Our country lacks foreign exchange the most, and the US dollar is the most scarce foreign exchange. In the factories in the south, when the goods are exported abroad, the price is all There is a subsidy, and the full subsidy is given to the owner of the factory. This is why it is for foreign exchange. So, if we have foreign exchange in our hands, it will be cheaper to exchange it in the bank. Well, this is to contribute to the country. The black market It’s different. I heard Yimin say that the last time he exchanged foreign exchange bills, he spent a lot of money, and the US dollar is definitely more valuable, or is it US dollars?”

Madam Feng grinned and blossomed, "This business is so good, I made two million easily, our Mengmeng is indeed a lucky baby, I almost threw away those orchids back then, She is a little girl who refuses to plant it by herself. You can see how much the family has planted. If you sell them all, wow, how much money will it cost? Do you think the Japanese are stupid and willing to spend so much money? Come buy orchids?"

The old man Feng said shrewdly: "The Japanese are really not stupid, you think, people are willing to spend two million to buy our orchids for no reason, just like me being a bad guy, they take them back to Japan, and they return I don’t know how much I can earn, but it must be a lot anyway.”

"Ah?" Mrs. Feng said regretfully, "Then am I selling less? The Japanese are really bad, so I said why he agreed so bluntly, it turned out to be taking advantage of me."

The old man Feng comforted her and said, "$250,000 is enough. We can't be too greedy. If you take all the money away, how can the Japanese make money? They won't buy it if they don't make money. I can't even make a dime, look at the old lady, business is like this, the money is endless, we still have so many orchids in our family, I have to think of a way to do it well."

The Japanese came back faster than expected. A week later, they came to Lao Feng's house with cash, and even changed the translator. He was a young man he didn't know, and I heard that he was working in a Japanese company. Yes, the surname is Zhao.

As soon as Xiao Zhao came up, he said confidently: "Old lady, Mr. Yamamoto has brought you the money. Can we take these two orchids?"

"No," to his surprise, the old lady Feng said very mysteriously: "My two orchids have changed from fairies, how can I give them to you casually? There must be a set of rituals, so what is Yamamoto? He came here to wash his hands, and he must wash it three times."

Today, there are only people from the old Feng family, and the others are Japanese. The old lady Feng closed the door tightly, and sent Xiao Jin to stand on the courtyard wall to keep watch, so that no one could come in and find out that their house was expensive. The orchid, such a precious treasure, must be covered to death.

The old couple has already discussed that this ceremony is a must. Today, the whole family put on the most decent and fashionable clothes, and surrounded the orchid with serious faces.

The pot of precious orchids was placed in the middle of the table, and there were several trays of fruit cakes in front of it. The most special thing was that there was a small piece of broken wood on it, carved into the shape of a human.

This scene seemed quite bluffing. Taro Yamamoto and his Japanese subordinates all washed their hands obediently, and stood on the side watching silently according to Mrs. Feng's instructions.

Old man Feng was wearing his bright red gossip cape, holding a bowl of rice in his hand and reciting something. He didn't even know what he was talking about. Anyway, he was just talking nonsense. He walked around the table three full circles. , and respectfully placed the bowl of rice in front of the orchid, and then he lit a stick of incense and distributed some to Yamamoto Taro.

"Yamamoto-kun, you also come to worship the orchid fairy, I tell you, this fairy is effective, after worshiping her, the longer the orchid you keep, the better, you really don't believe it, I worshiped the fairy a few days ago, just A new orchid was found on the mountain, old lady, bring out our orchid and show it to Yamamoto-kun."

Madam Feng numbly brought out a brand-new orchid from the room. It was a lotus flower with a crown of lotus petals, and the flower on it even had a red border, which made Yamamoto Taro instantly straighten his eyes.

"Rizhao God, this is the legendary mutant orchid!"

Yamamoto Taro was so excited that he almost jumped up, he wanted to rush over to study the pot of orchid carefully, but was pulled back by the old man Feng and motioned him to incense the orchid fairy.

In the face of the same facts, Yamamoto Taro had to believe that the lotus petals and crowns were already very rare. I didn't expect a variant of it to appear, which would be even more precious. Such a probability is quite rare among orchids. Do not believe.

He straightened his face, took the most pious attitude, respectfully incense the sacred orchid fairy, and then couldn't wait to see the pot of mutant orchid.

Mengmeng was standing on the side in a small skirt, watching the Japanese people offering incense. She laughed when she saw it. She picked up the broken wood from outside, and the carvings on it were randomly carved by her grandfather. Potted mutant orchid, she moved her fingers, she could have as many as she wanted, and she could make any variety for it. According to her grandmother, she made a lot of money this time.

Mengmeng smiled happily, and heard her grandfather fooling the Japanese: "Yamamoto-kun, let's work together..."
