Chapter 35 Forming

"Ouch, young man, you choose two kinds of carvings, and this old one will be given to you!"

Hearing Nie Yun's words, the middle-aged man who sold roots and carvings lit up and immediately said.

This middle-aged man sells root carvings here, and he may not be able to sell a few in a day. Most of the people who come to Fuyun Mountain to see the scenery and the first ginkgo tree in the world are basically not interested in anything else. Even if you occasionally buy some handicrafts and souvenirs, you generally don't choose root carvings.

The prices of the handicrafts and ornaments sold outside are usually very cheap. The things made in the industrialization process range from one or two pieces, or more than twenty or thirty, which is much cheaper than these carvings!

That is, there are only a few tourists. Go back to the Fuyunguan to see the "world's largest eagle" and buy a few eagles back by the way.

Generally speaking, the sales situation of middle-aged people is not optimistic.

Now Nie Yun said that he wanted to buy a few carvings, and middle-aged people were naturally happier.

"Xiao Zhen, what do you belong to? Pick a root eagle of your own zodiac sign!"

Nie Yun said to Tian Zhen while picking up the dragon root eagle.

Nie Yun is a snake, but the snake is called "little dragon" in the local countryside. When it comes to the genus, they are all "big dragons" and "little dragons". It's not bad to make a Panlong root carving.

"I'm born in the year of the sheep. I want this lamb root carving!" Tian Zhen looked at it and took the smallest lamb root carving.

"This little rabbit, the puppy, and this big sheep are all gone. With this dragon root eagle, there are four kinds in total. Uncle, let's see how much it is!" Nie Yun thought for a moment and took two other carvings. The big sheep was relatively large, and it was estimated that the price was a little higher. If you get that old root by yourself, you have already got a big discount. You can't let middle-aged people suffer too much.

"The price of this dragon is 100 yuan, the big sheep is 80 yuan, and the lamb and puppy are worthless. They are both 20 yuan. Do you give one hundred and fifty to the four? The middle-aged uncle asked Nie Yun tentatively.

A total of 40 dragon root carvings, 80 sheep, and 40 lambs and puppies, a total of 220 yuan. Although Nie Yun's funds are a little tight, he can still take out the money. However, what Nie Yun didn't expect was that as soon as the middle-aged uncle opened his mouth, he reduced the price to 150.

Generally speaking, this middle-aged uncle sells root carvings for 100 yuan, and he can get it at a counter-offer price of 60 yuan. For two hundred and two hundred and two root carvings, the middle-aged uncle is reduced to one hundred and fifty, and he is afraid that Nie Yun will not buy it if he thinks it is expensive.

"In this way, if you want this little mouse root carving, I'll give you a total of 200!"

Nie Yun couldn't raise the price by himself. He picked up a small mouse root eagle and let Tian Zhen take it. He took out 200 yuan and handed it to the middle-aged uncle.

"Uncle, do you have a newspaper or something? Give me this old bag." Without waiting for the middle-aged uncle to say anything more, Nie Yun immediately picked up the old root and said to the middle-aged uncle.

"Yes, yes!" The middle-aged uncle quickly found a large pile of newspapers. Nie Yun casually took two of them and wrapped them on the old root, so that the soil on the old root would not be dried. After doing all this, Nie Yun said to the middle-aged uncle, "Gone ha ha" and took Tian Zhen away from the root carving stall.

"Uncle Nie, why do you spend so much money on these carvings?" Tian Zhen didn't quite understand what Nie Yun did. In Tian Zhen's opinion, although these carvings are quite beautiful, the price of dozens of yuan is still a little too high. There are also a lot of small things outside, which look good. They are all small handicrafts made of plastic and mechanically ground, which are much finer than these carvings, and the price is not expensive.

"The main reason is not these carvings, or this old root. Well, let's put it this way, take this old root back, repair it for three or five days, and sell it for 30,000 to 50,000 yuan!"

Nie Yun smiled and said a more conservative price.

"Ah?"

Hearing Nie Yun's words, Tian Zhen immediately widened her eyes and looked at the old root held by Nie Yun doubtfully. She couldn't believe it.

A piece of broken root is worth 30,000 to 50,000 yuan?

"It shouldn't be a big problem. When it's done in a couple of days, I'll call Brother Zhao. This price is indispensable. If you don't believe it, I'll take you to have a look!" Seeing that Tian Zhen didn't believe it, Nie Yun said with a smile.

Tian Zhen spit out her tongue. Zhao Jianhong, these rich people, really don't understand. They can spend millions to buy a puppy. It seems that it is not impossible to buy an old root for 30,000 to 50,000 yuan.

"Go, go and turn around!" Nie Yun said to Tian Zhen, taking Tian Zhen and the charcoal ball to the back of the floating cloud view. There is a "world's first eagle" behind the floating cloud view, which has applied for the Guinness record. Although the Guinness World Record is very worthless this year, some time ago, the domestic application for the world record has become popular, and it can be counted as a record for three minutes. But anyway, the world's first sculpture is always a gimmick. It is estimated that there should be some stalls selling root carvings behind the Taoist temple.

If you can find another stag root, even three or five times worse than the stag root, it will be a big profit!

Unfortunately, after walking around, Nie Yun was still disappointed.

It's not that there are no stalls selling root carvings.

However, there are very few hand-made root carvings in the back. Many of them are made of mechanical polishing, which are fine enough and lifelike. However, when making these root carvings, they all make the old roots and directly take them home and put them in the machine to polish them. The old roots will not be brought to the stall at all.

After turning for half an hour, there was nothing to see. Nie Yuncai and Tian Zhen left the floating cloud view.

"Is there anything else you haven't played? Why don't we go climbing? Nie Yun said to Tian Zhen. However, after getting the old root, Nie Yun was not in the mood to play. He put all his heart on the old root. He couldn't wait to fly home immediately and bury the old root in the earth...

"Uncle Nie, you'd better go back. What's the point of climbing the mountain? I climb the mountain all day at home..." Tian Zhen seemed to see Nie Yun's thoughts and said to Nie Yun.

In fact, running to Fuyun Mountain is to see ginkgo trees, or playing horse riding, traps and so on. If you really want to climb the mountain, Fuyun Mountain may not be better than the back mountain of Majiatun. It is not a pile of rocks and earth, and the mountain is also full of pine and weeds. Moreover, there are people climbing Fuyun Mountain all day long, which is not as interesting as some wilderness mountains.

"Well, let's go back now. I'll pass by the county later, buy some vegetables or something, and go home to cook and eat!"

Take out your mobile phone and have a look. It's twelve o'clock at noon. Since there is nothing to play with, I'll go back.

I went down the mountain and drove back to the county first. There was a fixed vegetable market in the county, and there were people selling vegetables at every market. After buying some vegetables and fruits, Nie Yun drove to Daji Flower and Bird Market.

On August 16, there is no big market, but there are also bonsai shops, pet stores and other shops in the shops along the street on both sides of the Daji Flower and Bird Market. Nie Yun went to a bonsai shop and chose a pottery pot 30 centimeters long and 20 centimeters wide, with a height of only about ten centimeters.

The flower pot is dark brown with four cursive lines on it:

The rank is dry, and it is secluded in the southern mountains. Like a bamboo bud, like a pine.

These four sentences are in the Book of Songs, which is roughly a metaphor for the prosperity of the monarch's family. You can plant bamboo and pine trees in a flower pot. Nie Yun is going to use this flower pot to cultivate this deer-shaped pine.

The flower pot is not expensive, it's just about ten yuan. After buying the flower pot, Nie Yunjing drove home with Tian Zhen.

It was already one o'clock in the afternoon when he arrived home. Uncle Tian had breakfast by himself. Tian Zhen cooked another dish and ate some with Nie Yun. After dinner, Tian Zhen cleaned up the housework at home, and Nie Yun also returned to his hometown to decorate the deer-shaped pine.

When I got home, I saw the old golden osmanthus placed in the middle of the main house at a glance.

All the needles on Lao Jin Gui's body were pulled out. Nie Yun found that Lao Jin Gui's root absorption function had been restored a long time ago. It's just because the leaves have withered and yellow before, the whole canopy still looks a little bleak, and the whole bonsai has not reached the strongest state.

However, on those previous dead branches, there are new buds, and some new buds even have young leaves. It is estimated that in a few days, the young leaves will grow slightly. The crown of the old golden osmanthus is lush, which is a complete recovery!

Everyone who has raised osmanthus knows that osmanthus trees sprout and grow leaves all year round. Even in winter, as long as they are placed in warm indoors or sheds, they can produce tender buds, not to mention that the weather is not cold now. Under the care of Nie Yunling Mutong, this old Jin Gui is full of aura, and it is strange that it does not sprout.

The sun is not as strong as midsummer these days, and it's good to move Lao Jin Gui out to bask in the sun occasionally...

First, he moved the old Jin Gui out, and Nie Yun dug a little dirt outside and put it in the bought flower pot.

Carefully, Nie Yun first planted the old root of the pine tree into the flower pot.

I got a little water and poured a little on the four small roots of the old pine tree.

It is common sense to water the trees first. Then for drought-resistant plants, you have to water them thoroughly when planting them. In fact, strictly speaking, no plants are afraid of water. The so-called plants that are not resistant to waterlogging are actually nothing more than afraid of water accumulation, resulting in insufficient oxygen absorption in the root system.

After planting the old root of the pine tree, Nie Yun stepped back two steps and looked at the old root of the pine tree on the whole.

To trim the bonsai, first of all, you should grasp the whole. Bonsai is not a handicraft. Many details do not need to be too fine, and natural growth is the best. But on the whole, it must be coordinated. Only by grasping the whole can the bonsai not be disqualified.

Staring at the old root of the pine tree, Nie Yun's mind showed a stag, leaning down, raising his buttocks slightly, and stretching forward the antlers on his head, as if he wanted to fight.

The overall image was determined in his mind. Nie Yun took a deep breath and walked to the old root of the pine tree. He took a small scissors to cut flowers and trees in his hand and gently cut off a small branch.

After cutting off the twig, Nie Yun entered the state of Lingmu pupil again, letting his cyan aura radiate, entering the inside of the old root of the pine tree, trying to guide the aura. The truncation of the branch is actually cutting off a spiritual vein, but the aura in the old root of the pine tree will still rush to the fracture of this spiritual vein and eventually form a scar. What Nie Yun needs to do now is to guide the aura in the spiritual vein out and prevent it from rushing to the fracture.
