Chapter 13 Liu Zhong
As soon as Nie Yun's words came out, Tian Tian beside him was immediately stunned.
Then, Tian Tian's pretty face suddenly turned red.
Obviously, Tian Tian can see that Nie Yun attaches great importance to this old Jin Gui, otherwise he would not have tried to let Mr. Zhou transfer it to himself. However, after Mr. Zhou proposed a price of 3,000 yuan, Nie Yun resolutely refused. The reason was that the money in Nie Yun had was the living expenses prepared for himself!
This is equivalent to saying that although Nie Yun values this old golden gui, he values Tian Tian more!
Of course, a bonsai can't be more noble than a person, but after all, Nie Yun and Tian Tian Tian are just childhood neighbors and playmates. Although they meet again now, they are only friends at most. For the sake of a childhood friend, he resolutely refused Mr. Zhou's offer, which is enough to show that Tian Tian's status is more important in Nie Yun's heart.
"Uncle, I don't want your money..."
Subconsciously, Tian Tian wanted to reject Nie Yun.
"OK, young man, a thousand yuan, take this old golden osmanthus, take it away!"
Without waiting for Tian Tian's words to finish, Mr. Zhou's voice sounded steeply.
"Young man, your name is Nie Yun? It seems that you are also a person of affection and righteousness. You and this classmate should not be a real uncle and nephew, right? Mr. Zhou asked Nie Yun.
"Yes, my hometown is in the same village as her. Her family and my grandfather's family are old neighbors. She has called me uncle since she was a child." Nie Yun answered truthfully.
Mr. Zhou nodded and turned his head to look at Tian Tian, "This classmate, I know you. You are Tian Tian, a talented girl in our college. You could have chosen a better school in the college entrance examination, but you finally came to our college. In this academic year, you were also among the best in your studies and got a first-class scholarship, right? I also know something about your family..."
Tian Tian blushed slightly and didn't say anything. She was praised by the always strict Mr. Zhou, and the little girl was also a little happy.
"Young man, shall we pay with one hand and deliver with one hand?" Mr. Zhou didn't say anything to Tian Tian, and then said to Nie Yun.
"Good!"
Nie Yun had already prepared the money. He quickly took out ten hundred-yuan banknotes and handed them respectfully to Mr. Zhou's hands. The old Jin Gui, the disease plant on the ground, already belongs to Nie Yun.
After taking the money, Mr. Zhou did not put it in his pocket. Instead, he took two steps to Tian Tian and put the money in Tian Tian's hands: "Tian Tian, since Brother Nie Yun can generously fund the neighborhood, as a professor of the Agricultural College, how can I ignore our classmates with difficult families? How dare I put this money back in my pocket? You take it. If you have any difficulties in the future, just come to my office and come to me, the old man!"
"Zhou Lao, this..." Tian Tian was stunned. Obviously, he didn't expect that Zhou Lao took Nie Yun's money and actually gave it to him. He subconsciously refused.
"Take it well, don't push it, so many students look at it, it's funny!" Mr. Zhou said in a low voice with a straight face. Perhaps because Mr. Zhou was usually too famous, Mr. Zhou's face was rigid, and Tian Tian immediately dared not refuse again, so he had to take the money obediently.
"Mr. Zhou is noble and noble, and the younger generation admires it!"
Zhou Lao's performance has already convinced Nie Yun.
"Hehe, we all love flowers as flower friends. Don't mention the seniors and juniors. Besides, I'm Mr. Tian Tian. You are her uncle, and we are also equals. I'll call you a little brother. I hope the little brother can try his best to save this old golden osmanthus!" Mr. Zhou finally took a look at the old golden osmanthus and sighed.
"Do your best!" Nie Yun said with a straight color.
This old golden osmanthus is not only a boutique bonsai.
Similarly, this is also an opportunity for Nie Yun to step into the flower bonsai industry!
After saving this old golden osmanthus, Nie Yun can not only get a lot of benefits, but also confirm that his Lingmu pupil can indeed help the cultivation of flower bonsai. In addition, you can also get to know industry predecessors like Zhou Lao through this old Jingui, which is very important for Nie Yun.
Saving this old golden gui is a crucial first step for Nie Yun!
At this moment, the agricultural college students around me couldn't believe it when they saw that things ended in such a result. That Nie Yun unexpectedly "grabed" this old Jingui from Professor Zhou's hand, and also impressed Professor Zhou. If an experienced predecessor in the flower bonsai industry has done this, it may not be anything, but Nie Yun, a young man in his twenties, can do this, which is enough to show Nie Yun's strength...
Things came to an end, and it was almost time for class, and these students gradually dispersed.
Give the remaining 2,000 yuan to Tian Tian Tian. Tian was determined not to do it. Nie Yun put on airs and said that the money was given to Tian Tian by her parents, which was borrowed from her. In the future, Tian Tian accepted it. However, Tian Tian asked Nie Yun to bring the money back to her hometown to improve her life for Uncle Tian and her sister Tian Zhen. She has a first-class scholarship of 1,200 yuan and 1,000 yuan from Mr. Zhou, which is enough to live.
In the end, Nie Yun still couldn't beat the little girl, and the money was left in his hands.
It's class time. Tian Tian and Nie Yun said goodbye and went upstairs to do the experiment...
Mr. Zhou had something to do and left first. The two boys helped Nie Yun move Lao Jin Gui to the car. The large space in the back row of the Hummer shows an advantage at this moment. There is no problem to put down this old golden osmanthus.
If it really doesn't work, the roof of the car can be removed. Even if it is a large bonsai three or four meters high, there is no problem.
Thank you to the two boys. Nie Yun got into the car, started the car, and drove out of the campus.
Although I got this old golden osmanthus, Nie Yun currently has no exact way to take care of this old golden osmanthus. He can only pull it to his hometown in the countryside first and then discuss it in the long-term. Fortunately, the flowers have been tossed around for two months, and there are no two days left.
"Go home first, talk to your parents, and then go back to your hometown immediately!"
Nie Yun said in his heart.
So many things have happened, especially the change of his girlfriend, which is not a small blow to Nie Yun. In this case, Nie Yun wants to go to the countryside to recuperate for a period of time, but Nie's father and mother will never object.
"Dingling..."
Just as Nie Yun was thinking, the mobile phone in his pocket suddenly rang. He casually took out his mobile phone and took a look. Unexpectedly, it was called by Liu Junwei again.
"Weizi, what's wrong? Do you regret it in less than a day? Do you want to take the car back? Answering the phone, Nie Yun said directly.
"Well, is your brother such a person? Even if I regret it, I will resolutely refuse to admit it. If I pretend to be fat, I can't sleep at night at most!" Liu Junwei's voice came, "Okay, no kidding. My father is not busy today. He may be free in the afternoon. Come and have dinner together!"
"Does Uncle Liu have time?" Nie Yun's thoughts changed.
"Os, I'll be there at five o'clock in the afternoon!" Nie Yun said and hung up his mobile phone.
Liu Junwei asked himself to go to Liu's house. Nie Yun was clear about what he was thinking.
It's nothing more than letting yourself meet Liu Zhong and ask Liu Zhong to find a way to arrange his work. Among other things, with Liu Zhong's words, Nie Yun's desire to take the civil service exam again is naturally simple.
Nie Yun naturally understood his brother's feelings. Liu Zhong is decent and hates those who run away from relationships and go behind. However, for the sake of Nie Yun, Liu Junwei did not hesitate to be scolded by his father and resolutely helped Nie Yun. Nie Yun was grateful for this friendship from the bottom of his heart.
However, now Nie Yun has his own idea. Nie Yun is not ready to leave the road of civil servants in politics. At this time, Nie Yun is already determined to engage in flower bonsai. Under this premise, going to see Liu Zhong by yourself is nothing more than going to see the elders, and it's nothing...
Call home and tell your parents that they won't go home for dinner at night and go to Liu Junwei's house. Then Nie Yun drove to the largest bookstore in the province.
After an afternoon in the bookstore, I selected seven or eight professional books on flower bonsai cultivation, and saw that it was almost time. Nie Yun paid for it, left the bookstore, and drove to the provincial party committee compound.
Although he was driving Liu Junwei's car, when he arrived at the gate of the provincial party committee compound, Nie Yun was still stopped by the guard and called Liu's house before registering for release.
Liu Junwei's Nie Yun didn't come once. After driving around twice, Nie Yun parked his car in front of a small courtyard.
The door of the small courtyard was open, and Nie Yun walked in by himself.
The small courtyard is not big. When Nie Yun walked in, he saw rows of exquisite wooden shelves in the yard. On top of the wooden shelves, there were some huge flower pots. Among the flower pots, either side cypress, or Huasong, or old elm, or yellow poplar... It turned out to be an old bonsai pot. These bonsai are all in good shape. Although they are not as good as the old golden cinnamon last week, they are also rare high-quality products. On the market, each pot is worth more than 100,000 yuan!
Officials at the level of Liu Zhong generally have some hobbies.
Naturally, these hobbies can't be like young people. They love karaoke and dancing. Generally speaking, they are nothing more than tea, flowers, birds, antiques and so on.
Officials are good antiques, which is more common.
However, antiques are often worth tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands of yuan. They look very dazzling and always remind people of big corrupt officials like "Heshen" in TV series. So gradually, the interests of officials shifted to the flower bonsai.
Raising flowers and fiddling with bonsai is also elegant, which is undoubtedly much better than playing antiques.
What's more, the value of boutique bonsai is not inferior to antiques, and it is not so dazzling. Less vulgar and noble, more fresh and elegant...
Liu Zhong undoubtedly has three flavors!
" Nie Yun, you're here!"
As soon as I walked into the courtyard, a loud voice came.
Following the sound, Nie Yun only saw a tall and majestic middle-aged man pruning a osmanthus tree at the northeast corner of the courtyard, at the door of the side room. Liu Junwei seemed to have seen a cat and a mouse, and obediently followed the middle-aged man. Obviously, this middle-aged man is none other than Liu Junwei's father, Liu Zhong!
