28 The Lotus of the Independence
Zhonghai City.
When Ji Nian returned from Zihuai County, it was almost noon. It was obviously unrealistic to go back to school at this time. Not to mention anything else, just talking about the few green dragon trees in the carriage, there was no place to place them. Thinking that Zhao Jingluo liked to collect such wood, he drove directly to Qihuang Pavilion.
Fortunately, Zhao Jingluo was still there at this time, so Ji Nian could see him directly after he passed.
"Xiao Nian, you said on the phone that you found a few more green dragon trees, are they real or fake?" Zhao Jingluo asked urgently as soon as he met.
It’s not a pity that Zhao Jingluo was excited because the golden red sandalwood sold to him a few days ago was ecstatic when his old friend saw it and kept asking if there was any. If there were any, they would all be collected. Can Zhao Jingluo say that there is one? This one was obtained by chance.
Who would have thought that at this moment, Ji Nian called and asked him in a shocking voice if he still collected the Qinglong Wood? It was just raining in time!
"Of course it's true, it's all in my car. Mr. Zhao, why don't we go over and take a look?" Ji Nian said with a smile.
"Okay, go quickly."
The two of them came to the Haval. Ji Nian opened the car door quickly. Zhao Jingluo saw the large and small green dragon wood placed in the car at a glance. His eyes suddenly shone brightly, as if he saw the treasure in his heart. He opened his hands and touched it.
"Tsk tsk, OK, you can really do it. You can not only find the Qinglong Wood that others can't find, but you can't find it, but you can find it so many of it. Ji Nian, I want all these."
"Old Zhao, don't be anxious first. I don't plan to sell all these green dragon trees." Ji Nian said quickly when he saw Mr. Zhao's attitude that he wanted to pay immediately.
"Then how many are you going to sell?" Zhao Jingluo raised his eyebrows and asked directly.
"That's right. There are a total of six green dragon woods about one meter and one two meters long here. I don't plan to stay that two meters long. If Mr. Zhao wants to, please accept that one. As for the other six, I can only give you three, and I want to give one of the remaining three, one of which I want to give to the teacher, and the other two are my request to Mr. Zhao."
"I know you have a way, so I want to ask you to find a good craftsman to help me carve a few bracelets." After Ji Nian expressed his thoughts, he eagerly waited for the answer.
Zhao Jingluo looked at Ji Nian in a daze, feeling infinite emotion in his heart.
I had known for a long time that Ji Nian was a good-hearted child, but now it seems that this is true. Zhao Jingluo knew that Ji Nian's actions were purely to express his gratitude to the teacher. The other two were carved into bracelets, and if you guessed correctly, they were also used to give it to others.
Thinking of this, Zhao Jingluo said decisively: "No problem, I'll help find someone, I'm definitely not skilled."
"Then I'll thank Mr. Zhao." Ji Nian looked full of joy.
"Well, that's the case..." Zhao Jinglei pondered for a moment, "The last time the green dragon wood was used as the standard. This time, the three one meter one was worth 30,000 yuan. The two meter one could not be calculated because of the accumulated length. After all, the two meter green dragon wood, plus the golden star and red sandalwood, is it definitely not easy to find, so I'll give you 80,000 yuan, a total of 110,000 yuan. Do you think it's okay?"
110,000?
Ji Nian was stunned when he heard this. This was much more than the number he predicted in his heart. In his opinion, it would be good to sell these Qinglong woods for 80,000 or 90,000 yuan. Moreover, even those three are included at this price, so Zhao Jingluo cannot suffer a loss.
"Old Zhao, you gave me too much. In this way, you can give me 80,000 yuan of these green dragon woods and help me carve a few bracelets." Ji Nian thought for a while and said the price he thought was reasonable.
"What a joke, 80,000 is too little." Unexpectedly, Zhao Jingluo immediately shook his head.
"No, Mr. Zhao, it's really a lot. It's useless for me to ask for so much money. Besides, you are my elder, equivalent to half of my teacher. Can I still make money from you? Okay, don't argue with me. The price is 80,000 yuan at a time, and you will take it all." Ji Nian said unshakably.
A hint of emotion flowed through Zhao Jingluo's heart.
"You, you said that I am an elder, and I am not short of this little money. Could it be that I can still take advantage of you? Besides, I will not suffer any loss when I give you this price. The things sold from me, Zhao Jingluo, will definitely double their value. Well, I will give you an integer, and the remaining 10,000 will be regarded as the labor cost of carving bracelets. Don't say more, if I am an elder, I will decide like this!" Zhao Jingluo no longer delayed and made a decision.
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Ji Nian nodded with a smile and accepted Mr. Zhao's kindness.
"It's already noon now, so it seems that you haven't eaten, right? Let's take the goods to my house first, and then let's go out to find a restaurant to eat some casually." Zhao Jingluo saw Ji Nian's dusty look, and obviously he had just returned, so he suggested.
"Okay, I'll listen to Mr. Zhao! But Mr. Zhao, I have prepared some local specialties for you here, so you must accept them." Ji Nian said with a mysterious smile when he thought there was something in the car.
"Local specialties?" Zhao Jingluo was quite surprised.
"It's a coincidence that I went to Shitou Village this time and got some authentic wild goat meat and two wild old turtles. Then, this one is for you and the other is for the teacher. That old turtle is alive. Do you want to raise it or stew it? It's okay!" Ji Nian pointed to a bucket in the car, and the old turtle inside was stretching its neck and trying to climb out.
"This is a good thing, I'll accept it." Zhao Jingluo nodded and said with a little joy.
After sending all the Qinglongmu to Zhao Jingluo's house, the two of them were about to go out to find a place to have dinner, but who would have thought that Liu Chewu's phone number was called to Zhao Jingluo at this time. It turned out that his wife had something to do when she went out. Liu Chewu became a widow today. He wanted to find someone to have dinner at noon, so he came to find an old friend.
"See you in the old place." One more person will be more lively, and Zhao Jingluo agreed very happily.
"Okay, see you in the old place."
The so-called old place refers to a private kitchen with bright windows, called Lotus. If Zhao Jingluo hadn't brought it over, Ji Nian wouldn't have known that there was such a unique restaurant in Zhonghai City.
The hotel is not large in size, but it is extremely clean. The most important thing is that when Ji Nian walked in, he smelled a particularly strong smell of Chinese medicine.
"Did you notice something?" Zhao Jingliu smiled and turned to Ji Nian and asked.
"Old Zhao, smelling the smell here is like Chinese medicine, but here is a small kitchen. Could it be that the dishes cooked here are all medicinal food?" Ji Nian said with a little difference.
"Yes, I've answered correctly." Zhao Jingluo nodded with satisfaction and smiled.
A child can teach you, and you can understand it at one point.
"Tsk tsk, aren't you just guessing that this place is a medicinal diet? Even if you don't study traditional Chinese medicine, you can guess it if you come in and smell it."
At this moment, a casual voice suddenly sounded from the kitchen, and an old man came out. He had a thin face and a medium figure, wearing a long blue gown.
In today's era, few people wear this kind of clothes, but he insisted. As long as he lifts up his blue shirt at Dongzhou Medical University, anyone knows who he is talking about.
In such a large campus, this is the only one. He is Ji Nian’s mentor, a traditional Chinese medicine expert and professor Liu Chewu at Dongzhou Medical University.
Seeing the familiar head of white and white hair, Ji Nian walked up quickly and said respectfully: "Hello, teacher."
Liu Chewu is a knife-like mouth and heart-warming. Seeing Ji Nian's sincere respect without any false respect, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Yes, I feel much more calm than before. It seems that the two months of internship in the summer vacation have not been in vain. But why are you with this old man? Haven't you left? By the way, you did the sensational incident that was rumored some time ago? When I called you, I didn't hear what you were saying clearly. I took advantage of the process now to tell me the process."
"Yes, teacher."
"Hi, I said Lao Liu, can we not be so anxious? Even if you are not hungry at noon, we are still hungry and we need to eat. Let's eat while talking. Where is the lotus? Come out quickly, I, Lao Zhao, are here." Zhao Jingluo shouted at the restaurant with a caress.
At this moment, Zhao Jingluo did not have the majesty he had when he was in Qihuang Pavilion, and he was obviously much more relaxed. Ji Nian could feel this change. Not only Zhao Jingluo, but even his teacher Liu Chewu seemed to be much more relaxed, not as serious as he did in his usual teaching.
Strange, can this Lotus Kitchen have other stories?
Just as Zhao Jingluo shouted, a crisp sound like a wind chime rang out from the kitchen.
"Zhao Jingluo, it's been so many years since you've still not made any progress. You still like to scream like this. If you don't have anyone else, you're still like this in front of the younger generation. You're such a rude."
After the words came to the ground, an old man came out of the kitchen. She had a gentle smile on her face, and her silver hair was combed in a slight chaotic manner like Liu Chewu. Her eyes looked over were filled with calmness and softness.
With Ji Nian's eyesight, she could tell at a glance that her age should be comparable to Liu Chewu, but the years seemed to have not left too many traces on her.
Apart from her white hair, her face is like a full moon, her skin is smooth and smooth, with almost no wrinkles, and she is also very simple and simple. She has a black half-sleeved chiffon shirt on her upper body and a dark floral skirt under her. It is a very simple combination, but it fully demonstrates the lukewarm Jiangnan womanly temperament on her body.
She is the lotus.
The lotus that is independent of the world.
