Jinjiang genuine 70
Ye Han followed Manager Yang to see the five-year-old peony seedlings.
Because peonies grow slowly, most peonies are only slightly taller than three-year-old seedlings, about 50-60 cm tall. However, their branches are much more luxuriant than those of three-year-old seedlings, and the range of their outward extension even exceeds the plant height, presenting a low, expanded state.
Ye Han observed them carefully. Their thin side branches had been pruned off, leaving only thick branches. There were as many as a dozen good quality branches with flower buds growing on them. This meant that under good growing conditions, each plant could produce more than a dozen peonies.
When the time comes, they will be connected after transplanting, and the magnificent peony flowers will bloom on the branches, which will be extremely ornamental.
Ye Han continued walking forward and checked the different varieties of peony plants.
Some are upright, with taller plants, and branches that are not spread out much and are compactly distributed; some are sparse, with branches that bend and stretch out in all directions, and the plant width is greater than the height; some are semi-open, with a rounded plant shape and moderate height.
The shapes vary.
The soil and water in L City are suitable for the growth of peonies. The stems are thick, the flower buds emerge early, and the shapes are full.
Ye Han took a tour and was quite satisfied with the seedlings here. He planned to select more than 20 varieties and introduce 20-30 plants of each, totaling more than 600 plants.
Currently, more than 500 common peony species have been planted in the peony garden of Huajianji. Because they are common varieties, the cost is not high, about 60,000 yuan.
According to the plan, she will need to introduce more than 1,000 peonies during her visit to L City this time, most of which are rare species. This is expected to be the most expensive time she has ever spent on introducing flowers.
However, this is the purpose of Ye Han's coming here - to create a unique peony garden in W City.
Upon hearing Ye Han's request, Manager Yang's expression suddenly became serious.
Are all the peonies introduced more than 5 years old?
Peonies start to grow flower buds at 3 years old and begin to become ornamental; 5-15 years old is the prime period for peonies and their ornamental value is the best.
Because peonies are difficult to care for and make them bloom, 3 years and 5 years are a clear dividing line. Seedlings under 3 years old are cheap, while finished peonies over 5 years old are expensive.
Luoyang peonies are the best in the world. It is not uncommon for foreign clients to import tens of thousands of seedlings at a time in order to build a peony garden.
They are packaged and shipped uniformly, and the wholesale price is 20 to 30 yuan per plant regardless of quality. In this way, the price of 10,000 plants is only more than 200,000 yuan.
Considering the labor costs of transplanting and packaging fees, the profit is really not high.
However, the budget of this young client to introduce 500 plants exceeded the 10,000 plants of other clients!
It seems that there is more to come, as we also need to consider introducing the king of peonies, which can produce more than 100 flowers.
A big client with deep pockets.
After Director Yang made her judgment, her attitude changed immediately, with a woman's unique friendliness: "Let's find a place to rest first, and then go to see the Peony King in front.
I'll ask some flower growers to help you choose these peonies; they are most familiar with the varieties."
He raised his hand and called to his subordinates: "Xiao Wang, go get our peony album and let Boss Ye choose carefully."
Subordinate: “Okay, boss.”
"Okay." Ye Han nodded.
Otherwise, she would have no idea how long it would take to select hundreds of peonies from so many varieties in the vast plantation.
Ye Han came to a small pavilion on the roadside and took the peony album.
The ones selected here are the most beautiful and largest peonies in the garden. They are colorful and have intricate petals. You can feel their beauty just by looking at the photos.
Ye Han took a quick look and found that there were indeed many types, too numerous to count.
The colors of peonies in W City are mostly red, purple, purple-red, and some are pink, but other colors are rarely seen.
Therefore, Ye Han plans to introduce more peonies in colors such as white, blue, green, and complex colors to decorate the peony garden and bring a different experience to tourists.
Yao Huang, Wei Zi, Dou Lu, Zhao Fen, you can tell the color just by looking at the names.
In ancient times, yellow and purple were considered precious. Bright yellow was the color of the emperor, and purple air coming from the east had the same meaning. Yao yellow and Wei purple are bright in color and layered tall, so the titles of the king and queen of flowers are well-deserved.
Erqiao is a multi-colored flower, with one flower having both pink and purple colors, which is very beautiful.
Bean green is a type of green peony, which is relatively rare. As the saying goes, "green jade is worth a thousand gold coins."
The petals are light green when they first open, and then transition to a light green and white color. It is an alternative and fresh look among the colorful flowers, and is very popular among tourists.
Ye Han flipped through the album and quickly selected more than 30 kinds of peonies: "Yao Huang, Wei Zi, Dou Lu, Zhao Fen, Luoyang Hong; Jade Tower with Green Peony, White Snow Tower, Crowning World Black Jade, Drunken Yang Fei, Three Changes of Charming Face, Er Qiao, Spring Willow..."
Manager Yang thought to himself that Boss Ye was really good at choosing.
These are all rare varieties of peonies, and the price of a single plant with good appearance is more than 700 yuan; especially the rare green peony, which can cost up to 1,000 yuan if it is in good condition, making it the most expensive of all varieties.
Ye Han: "Select 20 plants of each type. The plant height should be above 55 cm, the number of branches should be no less than 15, and the ground diameter should be..."
Manager Yang wrote down the requests one by one and said with a gentle smile: "No problem, feel free to ask for anything you want."
More than 600 plants, a large order of at least 400,000!
She doesn't have to do anything these two days, just serve this big client well.
Manager Yang quickly called the flower growers over and gave them careful instructions, asking them to select the best quality ones and mark them.
After resting for a while, Ye Han followed Manager Yang to the location of the Peony King and met the Peony King who was over a hundred years old.
It was the first time that Ye Han saw such a huge peony.
Its plant height reaches nearly 2 meters, with a crown width of 5.4 meters, occupying an area of nearly 20 square meters.
There are more than ten main branches extending from the ground, and each main branch has dozens of branches. The branches are covered with dense leaves, lush and verdant; it looks like dozens of peonies growing together, constantly extending outward, reaching the range of five or six people, extremely lush.
Manager Yang motioned Ye Han to look at the flower buds growing from the leaves. "Here, here, there are some on every branch. Last year, 182 flowers bloomed, and the largest petal diameter was over 22 centimeters."
22 centimeters!
Even Ye Han couldn't help but be surprised.
Usually the diameter of a dinner plate is about 20 centimeters, which means that a peony flower is actually larger than the entire plate and cannot fit on it at all.
So big.
Manager Yang showed her the photos.
The proudly blooming peony occupies the entire picture. You can see the outer stretched petals and the inner layers of broken petals, layer upon layer, the color is purple-red, majestic and elegant. Against the backdrop of layers of green leaves, it is so luxurious. Indeed, no flower can compare to it.
Only the peony is the true beauty of the country; the capital city is moved when it blooms.
At this moment, Ye Han deeply understood the meaning of this sentence.
Manager Yang said: "Photos can't capture the feeling. You'll be shocked when you see it with your own eyes. Last year, during the flowering period, citizens lined up every day to visit."
"Someone offered 500,000 yuan for this peony a few years ago, but the leader rejected it outright. It will not be sold now. It is the 'treasure of our garden'."
Ye Han looked at the huge peony tree and expressed his understanding.
Emotionally speaking, it is a century-old flower king that has been passed down and carefully cultivated for several generations, and the people have deep feelings for it. It is also the signature of the cultivation center. It is said to have appeared on local TV stations several times and was even on the hot search last year. It is an absolute star flower, bringing a steady stream of visitors to the base.
Manager Yang led Ye Han forward and said, "There are three hundred-year-old peonies ahead, but they are not for sale."
"On the left is a peony king that is over 80 years old. It is 1.75 meters tall and has a crown width of 4.2 meters. It is smaller than the previous ones. The flower color is pink and purple, which is relatively elegant. Last year, it had 126 flowers."
Ye Han walked around the large peony, examining its flower buds and new leaves, and then asked about the price.
Manager Yang: "300,000, minimum 260,000."
The price is indeed high.
The price of one peony is enough to build an entire peach forest.
The total cost of introducing more than 600 peach trees was 270,000 yuan, which also included transportation costs.
Of course, with Ye Han’s current financial resources, he can naturally afford the price offered by the other party, but he still needs to make more comparisons.
More than 200,000 is not a small amount.
Ye Han looked at the large peony in front of him. If he looked at this one alone, he would find it very stunning, but perhaps because he had just seen several elegant and magnificent century-old peony trees, he always felt that something was missing.
When Manager Yang saw that Ye Han didn't say anything, he immediately smiled and said, "Don't worry, let's move on."
Ye Han then looked at more than a dozen peonies that were 30 to 50 years old.
Among them, there is one that grows particularly vigorously. It is only slightly smaller than the century-old Kao, but its variety is more ordinary. It is a new variety being cultivated in the field.
It had been ignored until it bloomed more than 100 flowers two years ago and was exposed by the media, only then did it become somewhat famous. Before that, it didn't even have a name.
Last year, peony breeding experts officially named this variety "East China Sea Waves" because its flowers look like layers of waves from a distance when they bloom.
Manager Yang: "It's only 38 years old this year. No one expected it to grow so big."
However, such an acquired variety cannot be considered excellent in a place like L City, where there are many centuries-old peonies and precious varieties.
If it were in W City, such a large peony with more than 100 flowers would definitely be a top-grade variety, attracting tourists in droves; however, here in L City, where there are more than 1,100 varieties of peonies, with countless types and colors, the criteria for judging peonies are very complicated, and "origin" is more important.
Compared with the famous varieties such as Yao Huang and Wei Zi that have been cultivated since the Tang and Song Dynasties, the new varieties that were hybridized later are "neither named nor justified" and are not at the same level at all.
But Ye Han likes this peony very much.
She looked at the photos given by Manager Yang.
'East China Sea Wave' belongs to the pink and blue series. When it blooms, the pink color has a very light blue tint. Although it is not as precious as purple or as bright as red, it is fresh and flowing, gentle and elegant. The sight of the tree in full bloom is captivating.
While looking around the peony, Ye Han took out earplugs from his pocket, put them on, and used the golden finger on it.
Donghai Langhua's voice was a little lonely: "I know I am not a rare species, but I still hope to be seen by more people."
Ye Han asked: "What is the price of this one?"
Manager Yang: "Some time ago, someone offered 70,000 yuan, but for some reason he didn't sign the contract. The price is still the same now."
70,000 yuan, which is more than three times cheaper than the Peony King that cost 260,000 yuan.
Ye Han was quite satisfied and had already decided to bring him in, but he did not show it on his face.
Manager Yang looked at the other party's indifferent expression and was a little unsure of what she meant.
Of course she wanted to make this deal happen. A large peony was worth the price of several thousand seedlings, and the profit was extremely high.
Moreover, competition is fierce among the major peony breeding bases and flower markets in L City. Even if the young boss does not buy from her, he can still buy suitable plants elsewhere.
So she had to close the deal as quickly as possible and not give the other party a chance to hesitate.
Manager Yang: "The minimum is 60,000. I can apply to my supervisor."
Ye Han smiled and said, "Don't worry, I see there are still many varieties of peonies ahead."
As she passed by, she whispered to Donghailanghua Mudan, "Don't worry, you will definitely be seen by more people."
Donghai Langhua asked doubtfully, "Is it really possible?"
Then he quickly whispered, "But here, I'm not outstanding."
Ye Han encouraged softly: "Sure. And you are very good."
A cool breeze blew, and the waves of the East China Sea gently shook the branches and green leaves. The lush branches and leaves covering more than a dozen square meters looked like green waves rising and falling from a distance.
Ye Han took off his earplugs, pulled his coat closer in the slanting sunlight, and walked forward.
Manager Yang followed behind and let out a long sigh. Although this boss is young, he should not be underestimated.
She behaved calmly and her facial expression told you nothing about what she was thinking.
Instead, she herself was a little impatient just now.
Ye Han saw a rare 3-meter-tall tree peony at the back, with a thick trunk at the bottom and winding branches above. There were more than ten branches, and they were trimmed very neatly.
Peony is a perennial shrub and woody plant. The tree peony can reach a maximum height of 4-6 meters, which is very tall. It can produce up to 150-200 flowers at a time, and the flowering period can last up to five months, making it very ornamental.
Manager Yang: "This is a purple-spotted peony, more than 70 years old, relatively rare, 3.2 meters tall, with a crown width of 3.3 meters."
It was the first time that Ye Han saw such a tall peony tree. Most ordinary peonies were less than one meter tall, and even the century-old king of flowers was only 2 meters tall. However, the peony in front of him was more than 1.5 times taller than them.
Seeing that the other party was interested, Manager Yang immediately introduced: "It belongs to the northern peony, which is different from the common Luoyang peony. It is not so delicate and has strong cold resistance.
The most significant feature is that the fragrance of the flower can spread to a distance of 100 meters when it blooms, and the smell can make people healthy and refreshed, and it has high medicinal value. "
Ye Han thinks this kind of peony is very special and can be distinguished from the peonies in the garden. When it is planted on both sides of the 'East China Sea Wave', it will bring an excellent viewing experience to tourists.
So she asked about the price.
Manager Yang: "This one is 80,000, the one next to it is the same price, and the other ones that are 2.5-2.8 meters are 60,000."
Perhaps because the previous Kao price was higher, Ye Han felt that this price was acceptable.
She plans to introduce two 3-meter tree peonies and the East China Sea wave peony to create a peony king area.
The total cost was 230,000.
It's ok and within budget.
But - she felt the price could be lowered a little more.
Manager Yang secretly looked at the other person's face and thought that there might be hope: "What do you think? If there is anything you like, I will apply for a preferential price immediately."
Ye Han smiled and said, "I just came to L City today and haven't had time to visit other peony bases. The unit price of large peonies is too high. I will make a decision after comparing them in two days."
Manager Yang was afraid that this big customer would be snatched away, so he was in a hurry to close the deal: "Don't worry, I guarantee that our price is absolutely favorable. If it is more expensive, I will make up the difference."
Ye Han just smiled and didn't say anything.
Manager Yang took a deep breath and said, "Well, which plants do you like? I'll ask for the price first. If you think the price is right, we can talk about it later."
Ye Han looked at the dim sunlight and said, "Okay. But it's a little late today. I'll go check the 5-year-old peony species first and come back tomorrow."
Manager Yang's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
Is it possible to not make a deal today?
Thinking that there might be various changes tomorrow, she was unwilling to give up this opportunity.
There was naturally no problem with the peonies carefully selected by the flower farmers. Ye Han randomly selected more than a dozen plants for inspection, and all of them were of very good quality, the best quality batch. Each one was labeled and numbered to avoid confusion.
Manager Yang made several phone calls before coming over. "Boss Ye, this is the quotation. Please take a look first."
Ye Han reached out and took it. It was basically consistent with the information she had learned in advance.
There are more than 600 five-year-old rare species of peonies, 90% of which are priced at around 700 yuan each, and the other 10% are priced at 800-1,000 yuan each, totaling 485,400 yuan.
The other three 'Kao' strains totaled 230,000.
The total number is 715,400.
Manager Yang: "Boss Ye, the price we quoted is already the lowest price. As we said before, we will give you a 10% discount on the original price, which is 643,800.
After many applications, the leader agreed to erase more than 40,000 yuan, 600,000 yuan, it can’t be any lower.”
Ye Han flipped through the quotation in his hand, frowned, and said nothing for a while.
The atmosphere was somewhat silent.
Manager Yang had no choice but to use his trump card: "How about this, you pick another 100 three-year-old peony seedlings, do you think this will work?"
Ye Han: "Rare species?"
Manager Yang: “Yes.”
Ye Han: “200.”
Manager Yang was shocked and shook his head: "Impossible, absolutely not!"
300 yuan per seedling, 200 seedlings would cost 60,000 yuan, which is too much.
Ye Han said nothing and put the quotation aside. "Then we'll talk about it tomorrow."
Manager Yang said hurriedly: "Wait a moment, I'll make another call."
This phone call lasted a long time, and in the end Ye Han achieved his goal perfectly.
At a price of 600,000, nearly 900 famous peonies were purchased, and three "Flower King" plants were gathered to create a perfect Peony Flower King viewing area.
The task after that was much easier.
Manager Yang's expression was rather reluctant.
In order to close this big deal, she not only lost her wife but also her own men, and in the end she was almost scolded to death by her boss.
She glanced at Ye Han. Although he was so young, he always took the initiative, neither slow nor hurried. It was really amazing.
After Ye Han signed the contract with the other party, he paid a 10% deposit in advance.
But things are not over so quickly. Tomorrow we have to check the specific varieties and quantities of what has been introduced, and the transplanting time, requirements and transportation methods also have to be confirmed in turn.
It will take at least two or three days.
The next morning, Ye Han came to the L City Botanical Garden.
She had contacted the other party via email in advance and made an appointment to meet the deputy director at the entrance at 8 a.m.
The L City Botanical Garden was originally the site of the "Western Garden", a royal garden of the Sui Dynasty. It covers an area of more than 2,000 acres, of which the peony garden covers an area of 350 acres. A total of 300,000 peonies of nine colors and more than 1,100 varieties are planted.
It can be said to be the botanical garden with the most complete varieties of peonies in China.
When Ye Han got out of the car, he immediately saw the deputy director Yan Rongxian waiting at the door. It seemed that the other party also attached great importance to this cooperation.
That's right, she planned to use the tubers of the bicolor Vanvisa to exchange for the other party's unique peony variety - "Silver Silk Penetrating the Top".
Currently, there is only one rare peony in the whole city of Luoyang.
