Chapter 160 Made a Fortune, Lao Li

Zhang Wanwan followed and stood by, watching the old man's eyes shining. He looked up and down very carefully with his glasses on, repeatedly counting every leaf of the fragrant wood. His love for the tree was beyond words.

"Little girl, you have taken good care of this fragrant wood! Look at the leaves and the texture, they are so beautiful! Did you grow them?" The old man praised as he looked at them. Deep down, he didn't really think that these flowers and trees were from Zhang Wanwan's hand. Maybe she got them from somewhere.

Zhang Wanwan put her hands behind her back and said proudly, "Yes, this is an old fragrant wood. It is quite old and was transported from the south. It took me a lot of effort to maintain it!"

The old man nodded. He had no doubt about what Zhang Wanwan said. Whether the flowers and trees were well cared for could be seen from their condition. As the old man was still studying, Zhang Wanwan stood there for a while and then walked away tactfully. Just then someone came to buy flowers, so she hurried over to get busy.

After seeing off one guest after another, it was almost noon, and the old man was still looking at the fragrant wood.

Zhang Wanwan was a little embarrassed and said, "Grandpa, I'm going to eat now, you..."

The old man suddenly realized what was going on. He looked at his watch and narrowed his eyes. "Oh! It's so late! It seems I have to go back. Girl, I really like this pot of fragrant wood. Please give me a price!"

Zhang Wanwan hesitated, "Grandpa, I'll be honest with you. The flowers and trees sold in my store are not cheap. Maybe the fragrant wood you saw at takeout only costs a few dozen or a hundred yuan, but the things here are much more expensive than outside. For example, I want to sell this fragrant wood for at least a thousand yuan. Don't accuse me of driving up the price. I offer this price naturally because it is worth this price, and I don't bargain for the flowers and trees here. Can you accept it?"

"One thousand is much more expensive than outside, but these flowers and trees are indeed well maintained!" The old man put his hands behind his back, examining the fragrant wood, a thoughtful look in his eyes.

Zhang Wanwan nodded and said, "You can see that most of the flowers and trees here are old, including the old sweet olive and old plum. These flowers and trees are not common in the market now. Even if they are available, they don't look very good. The slightly better ones are snatched away as soon as they are put on the market. When I bought these flowers and trees, they were not in good condition. I spent a lot of effort to cultivate them to their current appearance, and I can guarantee that they have strong vitality. Even if you don't take care of them for a short time after buying them, it won't be a problem. If you find that there is a problem with the flowers and trees, I can still handle it for you free of charge. As long as they are sold by me, the after-sales service is free, plus the transportation fee, the cost of renting the store, etc., all added up, this price is not expensive."

The old man nodded when he heard this and looked back at Zhang Wanwan. "Are you sure you can handle any problem with the flowers and trees for free?"

Zhang Wanwan replied confidently: "As long as the flowers and trees are not dead, I am very confident that I can restore them. Of course, if the flowers and trees are almost lifeless, I can't do anything about it."

The old man was silent for a moment, and finally made a decision: "Okay! I'll take this fragrant wood. Wait, I'll ask my son to drive over and ask him to pay for it."

Zhang Wanwan smiled faintly and nodded obediently.

While the old man's son was coming over, she also took the old man to see other flowers and trees. The old man took a look around and had to admit that Zhang Wanwan was a good plant grower. The things in this store, from large potted plants to small pots of hydroponic plants, all exuded vitality, which made people happy to look at them, especially an old man like him who had one foot in the coffin.

The two of them were talking about flowers and trees, and gradually they developed a feeling of being friends regardless of age difference. Just then, the old man's son drove over.

Zhang Wanwan looked back and saw a capable and successful middle-aged man. He had never taken his eyes off the old man since he entered the store. "Dad, I brought the money you asked for. What do you want to buy?"

"Boss, come here quickly and take a look at this pot of fragrant wood. Is it beautiful?" The old man asked the man to come over as if he was presenting a treasure.

The man glanced at Zhang Wanwan, then his eyes fell on the pot of fragrant wood. His eyes finally changed a little. After a moment, he nodded silently, "It's well taken care of."

"Haha. Right! I've been watching it for several days, and today I finally couldn't help but decided to take it back. You pay the money quickly and help me move the things to the car. Remember, be careful and don't break a single leaf!" The old man suddenly frowned, scaring Zhang Wanwan next to him.

The man was speechless. He silently took out his wallet and said to Zhang Wanwan, "Little Boss, one thousand, right?"

Zhang Wanwan felt that the aura of the man in front of her was quite strong. She nodded weakly and trotted to the cashier. She wrote a receipt and handed it to the man, "Here is the receipt. If there is any problem with the flowers and trees, you can bring the receipt and the flowers and trees over for free maintenance."

The man nodded silently. Although he was not talkative, it was obvious that he was well-educated.

While his son was moving the fragrant wood, the old man ran to the counter and said to Zhang Wanwan, "My daughter, my last name is Li, and everyone calls me Lao Li. If you get new flowers and trees in the future, remember to let me know. My phone number is."

The old man left his contact information on a blank piece of paper.

Zhang Wanwan nodded obediently, "Grandpa Li, what kind of flowers and trees do you like? I'll let you know when I see them."

"This." The old man couldn't say it for a moment, and shouted at the man angrily: "Boss, open a QQ account for me, the one you use for work, I want to add the young boss as a friend!"

The man froze, and after arranging the flowers and trees, he came in and wrote a number on a piece of paper, "You can add this QQ number."

Zhang Wanwan quickly took out her mobile phone and added the other party as a friend.

The old man was satisfied, and before leaving, he repeatedly reminded me: "Remember to send me pictures of new flowers and trees!"

"good!"

When the man went out, he took a special look at the flowers outside.

Zhang Wanwan was so happy because she received a thousand yuan that she didn't notice at all that if she could sell a pot of flowers or trees in a day, she would really have nothing to worry about.

Of course, the flowers and trees here refer to things like the fragrant wood. She has things that are more valuable than the fragrant wood, but because they have only been grown for a short time, they are not displayed in a conspicuous place, but hidden on the shelf next to the counter. There are things blocking the front, so if you don't look over here specifically, you won't find them at all. In addition, the orchids and orchid seedlings of different varieties that she bought are still small and need to be grown for a while. I believe the price will not be low when they bloom and then sold.

Zhang Wanwan thought happily and calculated today's income. She sold flowers alone for 350 yuan in the morning. Adding the 1,000 yuan, she earned 1,350 yuan in half a day. This amount of money was not much, but it was enough for her to pay the rent, utilities and electricity in just a few days. The rest was just to wait. Good wine needs no bush. She believed that her flower shop would gradually become famous.
