Strange Life of a Cat - Chapter 386

[Chapter 373 Why is there a “cat”?]

No matter what kind of famous flower it is, people always like to give it a unique name, which seems to have depth and taste, either fresh and artistic, or cool and crazy, such as “Suguan Lotus Ding” and “Old Cloud”. “Flying Phoenix”, “The Great Tang Dynasty”, “Dharma Ruiyu Art”, etc., when a name is put on it, it immediately makes ordinary people feel high-end atmosphere.

As the old man Lan who discovered this natural variant of the orchid in the eyes of all orchid friends, he would naturally name the flower according to the “rules of the rivers and lakes”.

However, when the old man Lan got the orchid from Jiao’s family three years ago, he discussed it with Jiao’s father. At that time, the Jiao family didn’t pay much attention to this pot of orchid, and they didn’t know how to grow flowers. The Jiao family said that it was a gift for the orchid. The old man, but the old man Lan didn’t really accept it. At that time, he just got into it and kept it in his own hands. The Jiao family had forgotten that there was such a thing.

But it is different now, and the insider can see that this pot of orchid is very valuable, and there are indeed many natural varieties, but this kind of orchid can make people stunned, immersed in it, and refreshed when they smell it, and it lasts for a few days. There are endless aftertastes of the variety that feels the fragrance still in the nose. If you really want to estimate it, it will probably reach a new high. Some people have already positioned it as a tens of millions.

The issue of price is something that others are enthusiastic about. What Lan Lao is thinking about now is the naming of the orchid.

Who discovered flowers?

black carbon.

Who is Black Charcoal?

Jiao’s cat.

Going back, the name should also be named after the Jiao family. Even though old man Lan reflexively thought of a lot of names when the flowers were blooming, it is reasonable to say that he really couldn’t settle down.

So, after carefully sorting out the anti-theft nets and cat-proof nets in the flower garden, Old Man Lan walked home with this problem.

Zheng Tan left as early as when the old men left. He could see that the old man Lan was thinking about something, and he kept glancing at him. Seeing that Zheng Tan was nervous, he simply slipped away.

That night.

After dinner, Dad Jiao didn’t go to the Institute of Biological Sciences to work overtime in the evening. Old man Lan made a phone call to make sure that the Jiao family and his wife were all there, and then went upstairs.

Old man Lan rarely came here, and Jiao Ma was making tea and taking fruits.

“Don’t worry, I just finished eating and drinking, I just wanted to say a few words, and then I’ll leave.” Old Man Lan motioned to Jiao’s mother that she didn’t need to wash the fruit.

Didn’t say anything else.

Go straight to the point.

The old man Lan told Jiao’s father and Jiao’s mother about the orchid, and

also said the evaluation of the orchid by those in the industry, and some people’s estimated price. This is the most important thing. After all, many people are not keen on For those who love flowers.

The meaning of flowers and plants is just stacks of RMB, and disputes are often caused by this, so old man Lan must make it clear.

I heard that it may reach the level of tens of millions, which really shocked the Jiao family and his wife.

“Why is it so expensive…” Jiao Ma murmured.

She has always wondered, isn’t it a potted flower? As for the estimate, it is 100,000,000,000, and now it’s 10,000.

This made Jiao’s mother, who was still a little bit of a citizen, thump in her heart.

It’s not that he is greedy for money, he was simply shocked by this information.

Because I heard that old man Lan sold millions of orchids before, and I also heard that some treasures that have won special awards reached the level of tens of millions. Ordinary people may not see so much money in their lifetime.

But after all, I just heard that it was something that old man Lan’s level came into contact with. The Jiao family never thought it would happen to them.

“A pot is close to ten million!” Jiao Ma sighed in a low voice.

The old man Lan raised his eyelids and said faintly, “According to my experience, it is not about ten million per pot. Generally speaking, it is calculated according to the cost of one seedling. Now there are more than one seedling in this pot of orchids.”

Jiao Ma Breathing can’t help but stagnate.

The first thought was that her cat could make more money than the two of them, and if she brought back two seedlings, she could become a nouveau riche, leaving Jiao Dad, who was working so hard to do scientific research, a few streets away.

Who found this pot of flowers?

Who brought it all the way back?

All three of them knew.

Jiao Dad saw that Old Man Lan was very reluctant to take this pot of orchids, not because of the value of this pot of flowers.

But the potted flower itself, spending more than money.

And since this potted flower is so valuable, even if the Jiao family gave it away, the old man Lan would never be so shameless about accepting it.

The old man was stubborn.

Think about it.

Dad Jiao said, “Can I ask Professor Lan to take care of this pot of flowers first? You also know that no one in our family understands this. If you take it back, it may be ruined in a few days.”

This old man Lan also understands that he can keep it at hand For a while, the old man Lan was naturally happy.

If it’s going to be ruined, he’ll cry out in the flowerbed first.

“Okay, I’ll take care of it for you first, and tell me directly when you want to get it back. Also, in addition to telling you about this, I also want to ask you how to name this flower. It must be stated at the flower show.” Before the old man Lan agreed to participate in the exhibition, he called Dad Jiao to ask about it, and Dad Jiao naturally had no opinion.

Jiao’s mother is not good at naming things, and Jiao’s father is not sure about flowers, so the couple looked at each other, or should the naming rights be handed over to the professional Lan Laotou?

Looking at the black cat lying lazily at the end of the sofa, there seems to be no resistance.

After thinking about it, Jiao Dad had already made a decision in his heart.

“You don’t understand this, we don’t understand, it’s up to you to decide, this flower is also yours to take care of, Professor Lan, you have contributed to the flower’s existence today, but we didn’t contribute at all, and we all forgot about it. “Thinking about the two flower seedlings that didn’t sell very well when they were brought back, and listening to what Professor Lan said now, the couple felt that it was nothing to do with themselves.

Zheng Tan has been paying attention to Old Man Lan’s expression. When Jiao Dad said that Old Man Lan would decide the name of the flower, Old Man Lan couldn’t help but grin. It must have taken a lot of effort to maintain his majestic image. , If it wasn’t for the fear of losing face here, Old Man Lan would have jumped up with excitement.

Naming a treasure is a very significant thing for many people, it can be famous in the present, and it is also recorded in history.

Thousands of years later, when people open relevant records or conduct research, they will naturally mention the name of this treasure, and may also mention the person who excavated and named it.

But even if they don’t mention their names, they’re happy to.

That’s what they’re named after!

Jiao’s father and Jiao’s mother pretended not to see the unstoppable expression on Old Man Lan’s face.

“Professor Nalan, have you thought of a name for that pot of flowers?” Jiao Dad asked.

“Cough, I haven’t thought about it yet, I have to think about this.” Old Man Lan said with a straight face.

Listen to this, don’t say Zheng Tan.

Dad Jiao didn’t believe it either.

Seeing that old man Lan looked like this, he should have made a decision long ago, and now he is still pretending.

But Dad Jiao didn’t point out that the old man Lan loved face and couldn’t refute his face.

Now that he can get the naming rights, the old man Lan is in a good mood, and he is not so serious. Jiao’s mother suddenly feels relieved.

Old Man Lan looked at the time.

Said: “Well, you can take time tomorrow, I will take you to see the flowers, I will arrange it when the time comes.”

So, the next day, the Jiao family and his wife, Zheng Tan.

Coupled with the little grapefruit, the three and one cat followed the old man Lan to the small flower garden.

After seeing the flower, the three of them didn’t consciously stay for a while. If it wasn’t for the old man Lan and Zheng Tan, the three of them would probably continue to look at it.

“Really…really beautiful!” Jiao Ma sighed.

Compared with gold and silver, she prefers jade. Although the pattern is simple, she finds it pleasing to the eye.

When she came back to her senses, Jiao Ma even wanted to reach out and touch it to see if it was really a flower, not carved from jade.

Before Jiao’s mother touched the flower, she was stopped by the old man Lan. The old man Lan treasured this flower, for fear that Jiao’s mother would break it.

But still let Jiao mother touch it carefully and carefully.

Jiao’s mother was also nervous when she touched it. She just touched it lightly, and she quickly retracted her hand without feeling anything. This is a treasure that is estimated to be worth tens of millions.

She was afraid that her hand would shake and the flower would be destroyed.

“If it’s really carved out of jade, it’s also a high-quality or even top-quality jade, and the flower in front of it is like… a living jade.” Jiao Ma sighed.

No wonder Professor Lan has the confidence to estimate such a high price.

Zheng Tan has always felt that this orchid is quite evil, but nature is good at creating miracles, since it is a natural variant.

Zheng Tan was no longer confused.

Of course, for many people, orchids have symbolized positive meaning since ancient times, which is quite evil in Zheng Tan’s view.

In the eyes of the old man Lan, they seemed to be immortal.

Like jade, like fairy.

Godlike nature.

After seeing the flowers, Jiao Dad made a firmer psychological decision.

He put the flower with the old man Lan. As for when he would come back, Jiao Dad didn’t say.

Moreover, when Dad Jiao asked Old Man Lan to participate in the exhibition or other exchange meetings, the “exhibitor” on the introduction or the information about the owner of the flower should be written in Old Man Lan’s own name.

Old man Lan felt that the Jiao family was really at a loss. When he was serious, he made an agreement and asked Dad Jiao to sign it. After all, this flower is not ordinary, and old man Lan did not want to blur the issue of ownership. Can rest assured to send the exhibition.

This Huajiao’s family is holding hot hands, not to mention that after the flower show, as long as those people get news, they can come to block people early the next morning.

The Jiao family had seen several times when Old Man Lan was blocked at home begging him to sell orchids.

As for whether to sell this pot or not, Dad Jiao didn’t have that idea, and Old Man Lan didn’t approve of it either.

Not yet famous, the price will be suppressed, but in terms of price, it is not worthwhile.

Moreover, Old Man Lan felt that it was a bit of a waste to negotiate the price of this pot of flowers. To Old Man Lan, this flower was priceless.

“Many flowers are so expensive that they are made by speculation. Maybe they will fall into the ordinary ranks after a few years. Some people get rich overnight, and some people go bankrupt when they fry orchids.” The old man Lan said, “But this potted flower No, don’t fry it at all, it will still be fascinating even years later.”

The next day, the old man Lan came to Jiao’s house to walk through the door again, and also brought an ink painting. The old man painted it himself, and it was the pot of orchids, and next to it there were six big characters written in lines – Tie Gusu. Yumao fairy.

Therefore, “Jade Cat Fairy” is the name that the old man Lan gave to the flower.

At that time, whether it is to participate in the exhibition or to take it to the exchange meeting, the three words “Jade Cat Fairy” will be marked in the “Inscription Name” column of the flower information. Immortal” called it.

The Jiao family naturally knew the meaning of the name, but the other old men were puzzled after knowing it.

“Jade Immortal” doesn’t matter, they admit that this flower looks quite immortal, but why is there a “cat”?

Where does this flower look like a cat?
