Chapter 550: The flowers in Jinling are not as good as the flowers in our Sunjia Village

So Sun Shan read books for the whole morning and then left. When he walked to the gate of the academy, he saw Gui Ge'er and Sun Dali squatting at the door.

Curiously asked: "Why are you two still here?"

At first, Sun Shan thought that he could go to school alone without Gui Ge'er and Sun Dali accompanying him.

He is twenty years old, not three. How can he be picked up and dropped off like a three-year-old going to kindergarten?

But the three members of the Sun family objected without thinking and demanded to be picked up and dropped off at school. When Sun Shan went to school, they would go home to work.

Gui Ge'er stood up quickly and did not answer Sun Shan's question. Instead, he asked curiously, "Brother Shan, why did you leave the hall so early?"

After Gui Ge'er and Sun Dali sent Sun Shan to the academy, they did not go home, but wandered around Qingliang Mountain.

While walking around, I actually went to pick wild vegetables. When it was noon, I went to the entrance of the academy and bought two duck oil pastries to eat.

They thought there was nothing to do if they went back, so they might as well stay in the academy and wait for Sun Shan.

At the beginning of spring, there was no cargo to be moved at the dock, so there was no chance to carry sacks.

Sun Dali asked quickly: "Ashan, have you had lunch? If not, there are duck oil pastries for sale in front, which are delicious."

Sun Shan pointed to the academy and said, "I ate in the academy. The teacher was not here today, so I went home early."

Then he explained why the teacher was not there and that there were not many students in the academy.

Sun Shan looked at the sky. It was noon, very early, and he was in no hurry to go home.

So he said, "Let's go to the flower market and take a look. Spring has arrived. It's time to plant flowers."

Sun Shan did not plan to plant flowers like he did in Sunjia Village. He planned to go the small and beautiful route.

Plant orchids, which are the favorite of Jinling people.

Orchids have different values, and Sun Shan wants to go for the high-end route.

Plant some precious orchids, and arrange them in a nice shape.

As for the planting site of orchids, Qingliang Mountain was chosen.

I plan to rent 2 acres of land from a nearby tea farmer.

As for selecting seedlings, I don’t plan to start from seeds, but instead choose orchid seedlings that are more than 3 years old. There is simply not enough time to grow them from seeds.

Sun Shan’s model is “We don’t produce seedlings, we are just orchid carriers.”

Select orchid seedlings that are almost ready to bloom and then cultivate them.

Orchids are beautiful, but difficult to grow and even harder to make them bloom.

The key to orchid cultivation is to understand the habits of orchids and then to care for them in an almost doting way. Just like treating a baby, you need to observe carefully and listen patiently to understand their needs and give them the most appropriate care to make the orchids bloom.

If orchids bloom easily, they would not be precious.

The Sun family has more than ten years of experience in growing flowers, so it would be relatively easy to make orchids bloom, so Sun Shan chose to grow orchids in Jinling to make a living.

After growing the orchids, I looked for Doctor Wan and the Xu family, and the sales channels would be opened up.

Even if these wealthy people don't like orchids, they will still try to follow the trend and seek fame.

Haha, this is the way the world is, everyone just follows the trend.

Sun Shan and his two companions called a car and soon arrived at the largest flower and plant market in Jinling.

Maybe because it was not long after the Chinese New Year, the market seemed very quiet.

Sun Shan led Brother Gui and Sun Dali to walk around and stop, and found that what was being sold were all withered flowers and willows, and they had no interest at all.

Gui Ge'er curled his lips and whispered, "Brother Shan, I find that the flowers in Jinling are not as good as the flowers in our Sunjia Village. The old man is very good at growing flowers, and every one of them blooms very beautifully. The flowers here are all dying, and there is really nothing to see."

Sun Dali is a peasant who cannot understand the beauty of flowers, but anyone except a blind man can tell whether a flower is good or not.

The flowers sold in those flower shops are not as good as those grown by Old Master Sun. He quickly agreed, "That's right. The old master in our Sunjia Village is the best at making flowers. The flowers in Jinling are not beautiful at all."

Sun Shan smiled and said that it was indeed not the right time to see the flowers. It might be much better in spring.

What's more, the weather in Guangnan is more suitable for growing flowers.

Guangzhou is known as the Flower City, which means it is a place where flowers bloom in full bloom.

In particular, the annual Spring Flower Market has attracted worldwide attention.

On the eve of the Spring Festival, the streets and alleys of Guangzhou are filled with flowers and potted oranges, and major parks hold spring flower exhibitions, which are beautiful beyond words.

As for Jinling, due to its geographical location, it is relatively difficult to grow flowers.

The flowers in the flower market were of such poor quality that Sun Shan disliked them and was unable to bring himself to buy any.

The three of them had no choice but to return home, and everything would have to wait until spring.

When they reached a garbage dump, Brother Gui stopped again and shouted in surprise: "Brother Shan, there are a lot of free flowers there. Let's go and take a look."

Well, Gui Ge'er started to do the same thing again, just like when he saw his neighbor throwing flowers, he would go up and pick them up.

Gui Ge'er took the lead, rushed up, and searched in the garbage dump.

Sun Shan saw a lot of cymbidium orchids thrown away, and he didn't know whether they were thrown away because they didn't bloom or because their roots were damaged.

Sun Shan wanted to go up and take a look.

When Sun Dali saw it, he immediately stopped her and said, "Ashan, don't pick it up. It's beneath your dignity."

It would be unacceptable if people saw the scholar rummaging through the garbage.

Sun Dali was determined not to let the scholar do anything that would be beneath his dignity.

So he ran up and turned out the pots of orchids that were thrown to pieces, and let Sun Shan have a look from a distance.

He asked, "Ashan, are these trees dead?"

Sun Dali only knows how to plow the fields and move bricks, so how could he know anything about flowers and plants?

Sun Dali felt that the scholar in their Sunjia Village was really amazing. Not only was he good at reading, he was also good at growing precious flowers and plants, and he made friends with many noble people.

Sun Dali admired him so much that he wished his own son would grow up quickly so that he could replace Gui Ge'er and work for the Juren master.

Sun Shan took a look and felt that it could still be saved, so he said, "Pick up these flowers as well. They should still be able to survive."

So Sun Dali and Gui Ge'er rummaged through the garbage dump and found quite a few flowers that Sun Shan thought could still be saved.

Gui Ge'er said excitedly: "Brother Shan, haha, how about I come here every day to look for flowers? That way we don't have to buy seedlings."

Sun Shan smiled speechlessly: "No, it's more expensive to raise half-dead flowers than to buy seedlings, and it takes more effort."

Gui Ge'er was embarrassed and smiled foolishly.

Sun Dali also followed behind and laughed.

When we returned to Jinxiufang, it was already evening.

When I walked into the yard, I saw Shigou’s entire family was there.

Shi Gou hurried forward, took the flowers and plants from Gui Ge's hand, and hurried to pour tea and water for Sun Shan.

Grandpa An looked at Sun Shan and said uneasily, "Master Juren, you are back."

An Dalang also said nervously: "Master Juren, thank you for your hard work."

Sun Shan nodded, washed his hands, and walked into the reception room.

Sun Shan knew that Uncle An and his family were coming over to discuss Shi Gou's medical studies.

Seeing the anxious looks of Uncle An and An Dalang, Sun Shan felt relieved about their little thoughts.
