Facing Mr. Lu's question, Ji Yuanhai nodded: "Yes, grandpa, I'm better at this."

Mr. Lu pondered a little: "You have to be careful here."

"Look at your second uncle. He accidentally got taken advantage of and paid fifteen hundred yuan for a pot of orchids."

"It looks good, but I lost at least a thousand yuan."

Ji Yuanhai's expression was a little strange: "Grandpa... I actually sold this pot of flowers."

Mr. Lu was startled for a moment: "What?"

Ji Yuanhai repeated it again.

The old man's true affection for He Ling has been confirmed, and Ji Yuanhai thinks there is no need to hide it anymore.

"In other words, Cheng Lin bought this pot of flowers from you for fifteen hundred yuan. At that time, he believed that this pot of flowers could help people get promoted and make money?" Mr. Lu asked in disbelief.

"That's not true, Grandpa."

"When I originally sold this orchid, the price was 600 yuan per pot; because Mr. Hua bought my orchid, some people wanted to buy this orchid and talked to Mr. Hua, and then there was the saying of getting rich. "

"As for the promotion, it probably has something to do with a retired cadre buying my flowers."

"Later, I paid 1,500 yuan a pot, and I got promoted and made a fortune. It had nothing to do with me. It was all what they said after they resold it."

Mr. Lu suddenly realized: "Oh, that's what happened! It turns out that he was promoted and made rich! No wonder Cheng Lin couldn't figure out what was going on."

Then he said to Ji Yuanhai: "Six hundred yuan is about the same price as I guessed. It seems that Xiao Jiqian is indeed better at growing flowers - just this hand of orchids is amazing."

"I just came to the provincial capital from a small county town. The money from selling a few pots of orchids is enough to cover the living expenses of you and He Ling."

"Based on this, you are indeed confident and capable in doing business."

Another warning: "But you must be careful. One is that the people in Hua Niao Street are sinister, so don't let down your guard. The other is that a tree that is as beautiful as the forest wind will destroy it. Moderation and forbearance are rare wisdom..."

Just as he said this, he suddenly thought of Ji Yuanhai's words and deeds when he saw the Longchang Sulan flowers he sold last time, and thought of Ji Yuanhai's words and deeds this time, Mr. Lu simply stopped talking.

This guy is a relatively cautious and low-key person.

This time I made it clear to myself, mainly because our relationship has improved and we have grown close and trust each other.

Otherwise, he would never know that this pot of orchids was actually sold by him.

This also means that he is cautious and prudent, and he does have feelings. He is not the kind of ruthless and insidious person who is completely scheming.

Mr. Lu changed his tone: "Maybe there is no need for me to emphasize this aspect again and again. In short, be careful in everything."

Ji Yuanhai and Lu Heling nodded again.

Ji Yuanhai said: "We have used the money from selling orchids to buy a small courtyard in the provincial capital to live in."

"The winter vacation is coming soon. We still have to live in the provincial capital for a while during this vacation. I will also try to open my business for a while."

"He Ling and I may have to disturb you more often. I hope you won't get tired of us."

Mr. Lu was overjoyed when he heard this: "Will you come and accompany me during the winter vacation?"

Ji Yuanhai nodded: "Yes, Grandpa, just don't find it annoying."

"It's not annoying, it's not annoying!" Mr. Lu laughed and said, "Yuan Hai, He Ling, you two are good children, just don't find me annoying when the time comes!"

"Of course not!" Ji Yuanhai said with a smile.

Lu Heling also smiled and nodded.

Mr. Lu laughed heartily. After a while, he looked at the time and said, "You still have to transfer the ownership of the house today, so hurry up."

Ji Yuanhai said: "He Ling is staying with you at home. It's up to me to take care of this matter."

After saying that, he took out two thousand yuan from the six thousand yuan. Adding the two thousand yuan he had with him, it was enough for four thousand yuan.

The remaining four thousand yuan was given to Lu Heling.

Ji Yuanhai said goodbye and left in a hurry.

After he left, Mr. Lu smiled at Lu Heling and said, "Yuan Hai is a very smart boy. I feel that Cheng Lin may not be better than him."

Lu Heling quickly humbly said: "Second uncle is so profitable in business now, Yuan Hai will definitely not be able to match it."

"That's because our family has a strong foundation, but it's not his own ability." Mr. Lu said.

He opened his mouth, intending to ask more questions, but because he was an elder, he did not ask.

Let’s take a look again. Right now, he doesn’t look like a heartless person.

"Brother Yuan."

When Ji Yuanhai arrived at the consignment point, Yuan Zhonghua was drinking some wine and pinching peanuts.

Seeing Ji Yuanhai coming, Yuan Zhonghua laughed: "You're here so soon! It seems you are impatient too."

"If it weren't for the special circumstances yesterday, if I were to sell your shop, I would definitely sell it to you for more than 10,000 yuan."

Ji Yuanhai smiled and said: "Brother Yuan is still humorous and unrestrained."

"We know each other now, and I feel like we are already friends. If I give you money and consult with you in the future, will you accept it?"

Yuan Zhonghua shook his head: "You don't have to pay me, but you must treat me to a drink."

"The consulting fee turns into wine money, but it costs more than the money! Are you willing to part with it?"

Ji Yuanhai laughed: "Okay, no problem, I don't care if you get drunk every time?"

"Wrong, wrong!" Yuan Zhonghua waved his hand disapprovingly, "Just have a drink, getting drunk is not what I want."

Ji Yuanhai said with a smile: "Everyone listens to Brother Yuan!"

"Be obedient and sensible! From now on, if anyone here asks me to buy flowers, I will push you there." Yuan Zhonghua said with a smile, "If your business is not good, I can't drink. This is not okay!"

The two laughed a few times as they talked.

Then Yuan Zhonghua cleaned up his face, brought Ji Yuanhai to find Wang Datong, and led the two of them to the relevant departments to deal with the transfer of the house.

Because Era Maritime University brought its hukou to the provincial capital, after buying the yard, the hukou was officially registered in the provincial capital.

However, Lu Heling has not yet registered her residence and is still studying at the provincial capital university.

Nowadays, restrictions in all aspects are becoming less and less day by day, and the environment is becoming more relaxed day by day.

In addition, Ji Yuanhai is already a native of the provincial capital, so transferring the ownership of a shop is now easier than transferring a house before.

In the afternoon, Jiyuanhai officially transferred ownership and owned Fangcaoxuan, a flower and bird street store.

Wang Datong left in a hurry with four thousand yuan, obviously relieved.

Ji Yuanhai and Yuan Zhonghua walked on Flower and Bird Street towards Fangcaoxuan.

"Teacher Yuan, Xiao Ji!"

A man smiled and called someone.

Ji Yuanhai turned around and saw that it was Shanxing who was doing business in flowers and birds.

"Brother Shan, hello!"

Shanxing said: "I heard that Xiao Ji bought Fangcaoxuan? Has the ownership been transferred?"

"The ownership has been transferred." Ji Yuanhai said.

I really got Lao Wang’s Fangcaoxuan!

Shan Xing's expression suddenly darkened.

Now that he thought about Ji Yuanhai's orchid sales back then, he felt like his heart was tingling. From now on, if this kid does business in Flower and Bird Street all year round, how about that?

Afterwards, Shan Xing forced a smile: "Xiao Ji is really young and promising. He has such a shop at such a young age!"

"Just this one shop, passed down from generation to generation, can ensure harvests during droughts and floods, so we don't have to worry about food and drink."

Ji Yuanhai smiled: "Brother Shan, you are praising me."

"Don't forget that you are the same. You can still harvest despite droughts and floods, and you don't have to worry about food and drink."

Shan Xing hummed a few words with a smile on his face.

"On Flower and Bird Street, people like Shanxing are considered passable, but people like Hong Jiangtao are not necessarily the only ones."

Arriving at the gate of Fangcaoxuan, Yuan Zhonghua said to Ji Yuanhai: "I didn't let you enter Flower and Bird Street at the beginning, so there are naturally reasons why I didn't let you in."

Ji Yuanhai nodded: "Yes, Brother Yuan, I have always known that asking you about things, whether it is fifty cents or one yuan, is worth the money."

"I really want to thank you then."

"That's what I say," Yuan Zhonghua said with a smile, "If you insist on going to the dead end, I will never stop you; I gave you three choices at the beginning, and if you choose the other two, I may not be able to help you. .”

Ji Yuanhai smiled and said: "But that was my own choice. I can't blame Brother Yuan."

Yuan Zhonghua nodded repeatedly: "Yes, talking to smart people saves effort."

In the blink of an eye, he saw a shop across the street closed, and Yuan Zhonghua laughed again: "Did you see that shop? Hong Jiangtao was so angry that he closed it!"

Ji Yuanhai glanced at it and couldn't help but smile.

The agencies surnamed Hong had calculated everything, but they hadn't calculated that Yuan Zhonghua could find someone who could give Wang Datong just a few thousand dollars in one day, regardless of his past grievances.

Taking out the key and opening the door, Ji Yuanhai asked Yuan Zhonghua to go in and sit down.

"I'll buy some food and wine and treat Brother Yuan to a nice meal today."

Yuan Zhonghua shook his head: "No need, I'm not in the mood today."

"I stand here - say goodbye to Lao Wang for the last time."

He bowed solemnly to the void with both hands, as if he was paying homage to an invisible person.

Then he muttered: "Old Wang, Old Wang, you have worked hard all your life, but in the end you still can't help your son struggling for a month. From now on, this place does not belong to your family."

"If there is a soul in heaven, don't worry about this place. Come home with me and bless the descendants of your Wang family."

After finishing his words, he took the Taoist Gangdou steps, walked seven steps, nodded to Ji Yuanhai, and walked away in a hurry.

Ji Yuanhai originally wanted to keep him for dinner, but seeing him like this, of course he couldn't keep him.

After Yuan Zhonghua left, Ji Yuanhai couldn't help but secretly thought to himself: Brother Yuan really knows a lot, he can also summon souls and dance.

After this experience, no matter what others said, Yuan Zhonghua showed his last affection for his friend Lao Wang.

Now that Yuan Zhonghua is gone, Ji Yuanhai will spend a moment with the plants, water them if they are short of water, and slightly change the soil if they are not suitable.

While I was busy, a voice came from the door: "Hello."

Ji Yuanhai turned around and saw a gentle middle-aged man: "Hello, what can I do?"

"I originally bought this pot of flowers from here. It was sold to me by a white-haired old man. He said that if he died within six months, he would return it, and if he got sick, he would take care of it." The middle-aged man said, "Look... Does this still apply now?”

Ji Yuanhai smiled and said: "It works, bring the flowers over and let me take a look."

The middle-aged man looked happy and hurriedly came over with a pot of flowers.

"The old man is not here today?"

Ji Yuanhai replied: "The old man passed away due to illness, and I am taking over this shop now. Although the past business has nothing to do with me, since it is still the name of Fangcaoxuan, I will not refuse."

After hearing this, the middle-aged man quickly praised the young boss for his high righteousness and willingness to take on this layer of trouble.

Ji Yuanhai sensed it, frowned and looked at the middle-aged man: "Do you want to continue to grow this flower, or do you want to get a new one?"

The middle-aged man said: "If you can cure the flower, of course I will still keep this pot of flower; I have kept it for three months and it looks pleasing to the eye."

Ji Yuanhai frowned when he heard that he was still willing to continue to grow this pot of flowers.

That said, I didn’t mean to make a fuss.

"If you continue to keep it, you really have to pay attention to one thing. Don't let anyone pour water into the flower pot."

"Look, this is hair-washing water, right? There are already hairs in the soil. Whose flowers can be watered with water containing hair-washing foam?"

After Ji Yuanhai finished speaking, the middle-aged man's face suddenly turned red.

"This... this... unknown woman! It's her again!"

"I managed to raise the flowers, why can't I treat them kindly?"

"Okay," Ji Yuanhai said, "You are also a cultured and accomplished person, so don't take it easy here."

"I'll change a pot of flower soil for you, and you can pick it up again in five days."

"Okay, okay, I'll definitely come over!" The gentle middle-aged man said as he took out two dollars and handed it to Ji Yuanhai.

"Please accept it. Changing the soil and growing the flowers will cost you time and energy. Besides, I have a problem with growing this flower myself. I'm really embarrassed to let you raise it for free."

Ji Yuanhai nodded: "Then I'm welcome."

He took out his notebook and asked the gentle middle-aged man to leave his name and address. If he couldn't be contacted by then, it would be convenient for him to send it to him.

At this time, people's hearts were also simple, and they couldn't think of anything else. After leaving his name and address, the middle-aged man thanked Ji Yuanhai repeatedly: "Boss Xiao Ji, your service is really warm and thoughtful!"

Ji Yuanhai smiled and thought that in a few decades, anyone who inquires about their real name, address and phone number will only receive wary looks, but this will no longer be the case.

After changing the soil for this potted flower, watering it a little, the potted flower has regained its vitality.

After that, Ji Yuanhai packed up the shop and returned to the Lu family.

"Yuan Hai, are things going well?" Lu Heling asked.

"It went relatively smoothly, and the property deed has been transferred." Ji Yuanhai said, "From now on, Fangcaoxuan on Flower and Bird Street will be our shop."

Mr. Lu also smiled and said, "I hope it goes smoothly."

"Next, work hard. With your ability, you can make a difference in the provincial capital."

Ji Yuanhai smiled: "Grandpa, thank you for your kind words."

"It's almost time. Let's go after dinner." Mr. Lu said.

Ji Yuanhai and Lu Heling did not postpone.

By the time it was time for dinner, Lu Chenglin, his wife, and their three children came back.

They were all shocked when they heard that Ji Yuanhai and Lu Heling already had a yard and a shop in the provincial capital, especially because their orchid, which cost 1,500 yuan, was grown by Ji Yuanhai.

"Xiao Ji, you orchid has tricked me!" Lu Chenglin said with a wry smile.

Mr. Lu spoke up and said, "What do you know! When Yuan Hai was sold, it only cost 600 yuan a pot. Later, the money was added by others for one reason or another?"

"Grandpa, it's so easy for you to say that!" Lu Chenglin's eldest son Lu Shuang said, "Six hundred yuan is only six hundred yuan!"

"How many people have an iron rice bowl? Earning three hundred yuan a year is already pretty good."

“My brother-in-law’s pot of flowers only costs six hundred yuan!”

Lu Chenglin and his wife were not so surprised. Their other son and daughter also nodded: "Brother-in-law, this pot of flowers is really amazing."

"It's a pity that someone else made nine hundred yuan and sold it to my dad!"

The three children talked to each other, and Ji Yuanhai and Lu Heling couldn't help but laugh when they heard them calling them "brother-in-law" and "sister-in-law."

Lu Chenglin's instructions to Ji Yuanhai and Lu Heling were similar to those of Mr. Lu, they must be cautious and don't be deceived.

Finally, he added: "We must strike a balance between business and studies, and we must not delay our studies."

Ji Yuanhai nodded and accepted the instruction.

After dinner, Lu Chenglin drove Ji Yuanhai and Lu Heling back to the provincial university.

Back at the school dormitory, the roommates all asked Ji Yuanhai what happened when he took leave and went out, and whether it went well or not.

Ji Yuanhai replied: "Things went quite smoothly. Thank you for your concern."

Zhou Heng said with a smile: "Squad leader, our concern is light, that Feng Xue is restless, especially wants to know what you are doing, and even asked us all!"

"Didn't you see that she looked like her heart was being scratched by five claws? It's so fun!"

Ji Yuanhai smiled and said: "Then she is quite curious."

Zhao Youtian said: "Squad leader, I didn't teach anything in today's class. I just reviewed the original learning content."

Ji Yuanhai nodded: "Well, I understand, Arita, you are serious."

Zhao Youtian means: If there is new key content, I will definitely write it down for the squad leader to read. There is no such content today, so I didn’t write it down.

Zhao Youtian smiled and continued to read with his head down.

The next day, class continued.

Ji Yuanhai did not ask for leave again.

The counselor asked Ji Yuanhai and learned that yesterday's matter was a family matter and had been resolved, so he didn't ask any more questions.

Fangcaoxuan has been obtained and nothing can be run away. He has to complete the last week or so of study and exams and try to run Fangcaoxuan for a while after the holidays.

Doing this will surely make some people in Flower and Bird Street, such as Shan Xing, breathe a sigh of relief.

A note came over and Ji Yuanhai looked at Feng Xue.

Feng Xue glanced at him and motioned for him to read the note.

"What did you do yesterday? Why were you busy all day?"

Ji Yuanhai responded: "Something happened."

"What's up?"

"Private matters." Ji Yuanhai replied.

The note came and went several times, but when Feng Xue saw that he still refused to say anything, she puffed up her face and stared at him.

While waiting for lunch, Ji Yuanhai, Lu Heling, Feng Xue, and Qiu Jialu sat together.

Zhou Heng and Bai Chengzhi made a meal and went back to the dormitory with Zhao Youtian to eat.

Before Feng Xue could speak, Qiu Jialu spoke first: "Professor Hou is so annoying!"
