Chapter 724: My Daughter is the Heroine Who Runs Away with the Baby (13)

Two strangers came to Zhou Shichu's home. They came for the orchids she cultivated, especially the two pots of ghost orchids.

As soon as Professor Wang entered the yard and found out where the ghost orchid was, he stuck there and refused to move. He really wanted to use the magnifying glass to stare at the two pots of flowers.

Seeing his teacher's obsessed look, Wang Qingquan said to Zhou Shichu awkwardly, "My teacher has devoted his life to studying various orchids. He has also cultivated many precious varieties himself, but he has never successfully cultivated a ghost orchid. So when he found out that you succeeded in cultivating it this time, he was extremely excited and had to come and see it in person..."

Zhou Shichu smiled and said, "I understand. People who love flowers usually behave like this when they see flowers they like."

Zhou Shichu really didn't care about the old professor's behavior. These two people were obviously well-mannered scholars. Isn't it normal for them to be obsessed with their hobbies?

So she poured tea for them and let them go to observe their orchids.

Jiang Xue's previous live broadcast of the various flowers and plants in Zhou Shichu's yard became a minor hit. In the comments below the video, there were fans who knew the value of the flowers and told her what kind of flowers they were, how much they were worth, how precious they were, etc. Jiang Xue was shocked by what she saw, because many of the flowers and plants planted by Zhou Shichu were very precious, but she didn't expect that they could be sold without even blinking an eye.

Zhou Shichu didn’t think these flowers and plants were precious. Only those in her own companion space were rare. Those that could be planted were very common. It was just that the ordinary varieties in her space were considered precious if they were released.

After seeing Zhou Shichu's ghost orchid, Professor Wang stayed in the village and refused to leave. He would come to Zhou Shichu's yard every day and tentatively asked Zhou Shichu if he could sell a pot of ghost orchid to their research institute. Zhou Shichu agreed, after all, she had two pots.

Professor Wang was so excited that she called several people to help move the ghost orchid. The scene was even more grand than welcoming princes and nobles in ancient times. The old people in the village all came to watch, and they were amazed. They said to Zhou Shichu that they didn't expect that someone would be willing to buy her strange and unlucky flower.

Zhou Shichu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Although the ghost orchid's flowers were indeed a little strange, why was it unlucky? Was it because of the name?

However, after this incident, everyone no longer doubted that Zhou Shichu could make money by growing flowers. Some old ladies who loved beauty even asked Zhou Shichu for a few kinds of flowers to take back to their own yards to plant.

In the CEO's office of a large company in Beijing, a beautiful woman dressed fashionably rushed in, ignoring the man working at the desk, and shouted: "Brother! Brother! Aren't you worried about Mr. Wen's birthday gift recently? Mr. Wen loves orchids the most. I found a very precious and rare orchid variety on the Internet. If you can get that orchid and give it to Mr. Wen as a gift, then our company's cooperation with them will be secure, right?"

The man, Fan Guangting, was very impatient when he heard his sister's chattering, but after listening to her words, he became interested. He took his sister's phone, looked at it, and said, "This weird-looking flower is an orchid? Are you sure?"

"Brother, I'm not mistaken. This has been certified by professors from the Institute of Plant Sciences. It is indeed a very rare orchid variety, called the Ghost Orchid. There are not many people in the world who can successfully cultivate it. Most of them are wild. If we can get this Ghost Orchid, Grandpa Wen will definitely be very happy!" Fan Weiwei couldn't wait to explain to her brother.

Fan Guangting frowned. He had no interest in flowers and plants. He only knew a few of the most popular and common orchids. He couldn't recognize the rare orchids at all, so he had never seen this orchid before. But he decided to trust his sister, so he said to Fan Weiwei, "Send this video to Secretary Chen and ask him to buy this orchid as soon as possible."

"Okay! I'll ask Secretary Chen to hurry up. After all, there are still many people on the Internet who know the value of the goods. It would be bad if someone else buys it first." Fan Weiwei muttered.

Secretary Chen received the assignment from the eldest lady and after checking, he found out that the owner of the flower was in the town next to his hometown. So he immediately called his cousin Chen Dawei and asked him to rush to the next town to buy the ghost orchid.

Chen Dawei received a notice from his cousin who worked at the headquarters of a large group and immediately went to the next town that day.

At this time, Zhou Shichu had already asked the research institute to move one pot away, so he only had one pot left and had no intention of selling it.

So when Chen Dawei found her and offered to buy her remaining pot of ghost orchid, she refused without hesitation.

"Why not? Don't you have another pot? Just sell that one to me!" Chen Dawei had already entered the yard and looked around impatiently. There was a picture of ghost orchid on his mobile phone, trying to find where the remaining pot was.

"No, that pot is not for sale. I'm keeping it for myself. Sorry, if you want it, go buy it somewhere else." Zhou Shichu was also very impatient. He crossed his arms and looked at Chen Dawei coldly.

Chen Dawei glared, "Do you think the money is too little? Huh? Is that right? Then two million, is two million enough? I think you shouldn't go too far. Such a broken flower can be sold for hundreds of thousands, which is good enough. I am willing to pay two million. I advise you to stop while you are ahead..."

Zhou Shichu sneered and said sarcastically, "Two million? Where can you buy a ghost orchid for two million? Tell me, and I'll buy it. I'll take whatever you have!"

Chen Dawei knew nothing about orchid varieties. He only knew that the orchid his cousin wanted him to buy was very precious and valuable. He thought that the price would be at most a few hundred thousand or a million, and would not be much higher. However, he did not expect that even if he offered a high price of two million, Zhou Shichu still refused to give in. He thought she was extremely arrogant and greedy.

"Two million is not enough? This is a crappy orchid with a crappy name. I don't mind it because it's unlucky. How much more do you want to ask for? I advise you not to be greedy. Be careful not to burst your stomach! Do you know who wants to buy your flowers? It's the Fan Group in Beijing. My cousin works under President Fan. President Fan asked me to ask you because he wanted your flowers. Don't be greedy and ask for too much!" Chen Dawei shouted arrogantly.

"Mr. Fan? Fan Group in Beijing?" Zhou Shichu sneered, "What does that have to do with me? I didn't ask for anything from the Fan family, but now they want my things."

"It's your honor that Mr. Fan wants your orchid. Shouldn't you happily give Mr. Fan what he wants? Don't you want to live anymore? The Fan Group is so big that it's as easy as killing an ant to deal with you. Are you sure you want to offend them?" Chen Dawei looked at Zhou Shichu with a condescending expression.

"I'm sorry, but I want to see how the Fan family can crush me." Zhou Shichu originally had no feelings towards the Fan Group, but after this incident, his impression of the Fan family immediately dropped to the lowest point.
