"Just one orchid?"
"Ye Chen, you're too stingy."
"Even if you don't want to buy anything expensive, you can't try to fool your teacher with that broken orchid."
"You are being very disrespectful to Teacher Song."
Several classmates shook their heads.
Beside her, Xu Wanrong looked on with a gloating expression.
Ever since Ye Chen and Su Ningshuang appeared, Xu Wanrong has looked very uncomfortable.
She disliked Ye Chen and Su Ningshuang. Just now, she was vaguely worried that Ye Chen might bring some expensive items that would overshadow her genuine Zhang Daqian calligraphy.
Now it's clear I was overthinking things.
Although Ye Chen is rich, he is really stingy, trying to fool Teacher Song with a broken orchid.
Isn't that embarrassing?
It's an insult to rich and successful people like them!
"It's okay, I really like the orchid that Xiaochen gave me."
At that moment, Teacher Song stepped forward.
"Wanrong, your painting by Zhang Daqian is too valuable. You should take it back."
“The broken orchid, this is a white crown lotus cauldron.”
Seeing these ignorant people say "broken orchid", Su Ningshuang refuted everyone. As Ye Chen's girlfriend, Su Ningshuang would naturally defend Ye Chen at the first opportunity.
"A plain crown and a lotus cauldron, what is that? I've never heard of it."
"I've never heard of it either."
The group shook their heads, indicating they had never heard of it before.
It's just a broken orchid!
They don't believe anything is powerful.
Not only them, but Xu Wanrong also did not believe that a flower could compare to her original Zhang Daqian painting.
Out of curiosity, one of the boys took out his phone and searched for it.
When the detailed information about Su Guan He Ding appeared on his phone screen, the boy was dumbfounded.
"The Su Guan He Ding orchid...one of the most precious and rarest orchids in China...was once auctioned for a record-breaking 15 million yuan..."
Fifteen million?!
When this number was announced, everyone present was stunned.
Fifteen million yuan is enough for them to achieve financial freedom in their small third- or fourth-tier city of Linhai.
The result was that this terrifyingly large sum of money was only enough to buy one of these orchids.
Oh My God.
Poverty limited their imagination.
This isn't some worthless orchid; it's a treasure, a golden orchid, a diamond orchid!
Thinking back to how they had been sarcastic and sarcastic towards Ye Chen just moments before, the group felt extremely embarrassed, their toes practically touching the ground.
"Fifteen million........."
Xu Wanrong muttered to herself, equally incredulous and shocked by the number.
"Xiao Chen, I can't accept this orchid from you."
Teacher Song quickly spoke up.
He never imagined that the orchid Xiao Chen gave him was worth over ten million.
We absolutely must not accept it.
"Ye Chen, what kind of orchid did you buy this for? How much did it cost?"
One of the boys couldn't help but ask.
"How much did you buy it for? I didn't spend any money."
Ye Chen shook his head.
"Didn't spend any money?"
"How could it not have cost money?"
No one believed Ye Chen's answer.
"I dug this lotus plant from my garden, so it didn't cost me any money."
Ye Chen gave a calm reply.
Dig it up from your garden?!
Holy crap, holy crap, holy crap!!!
That's incredibly awesome.
Everyone was stunned. Just what kind of magical place was Ye Chen's garden?
They even have orchids worth over ten million?
"Teacher, I have several more of the same Su Guan He Ding at home, please accept them."
Ye Chen comforted his teacher.
Hearing Ye Chen say this, before Teacher Song could even speak, Xu Wanrong and the others were shocked once again.
Ye Chen's family has several more of the same Su Guan He Ding orchids?!
That's terrifying!
Based on this calculation, Ye Chen's garden is probably worth tens of millions. If there are other precious flowers and plants in the garden, it could be worth hundreds of millions.
This is just the garden; if we include other areas...
Ye Chen's villa is too luxurious; even palaces might not be able to compare.
Xu Wanrong stood there, stunned, finding it hard to accept for a moment.
"Ye Chen, you are simply my idol."
"I knew it! Ye Chen, you're the most awesome and successful of all the classmates."
These classmates instantly became opportunists, abandoning Xu Wanrong and starting to praise Ye Chen incessantly.
Xu Wanrong was left alone there.
Ye Chen and Su Ningshuang sat down and began chatting with Teacher Song.
A dozen minutes later, the door was opened from the outside, and a woman walked in looking worried.
This woman was Teacher Song's wife, Ye Chen's teacher's wife.
Seeing that there were guests at home, the teacher's wife greeted Ye Chen and the others somewhat absentmindedly.
What's wrong with you?
Seeing that his wife seemed to have something on her mind, Teacher Song quickly asked her with concern.
"My sister just called. Xiaolin is a senior in college and needs to do an internship next year, but she hasn't found a suitable place yet."
The teacher's wife answered.
"There are too many people on Hong Kong Island. It's too difficult to get an internship at a good company without connections."
My sister just asked me if I know anyone over there.
The teacher's wife spoke with a hint of helplessness.
How could she possibly know anyone on Hong Kong Island?
“Hong Kong Island, ah, that’s indeed a bit troublesome.”
Teacher Song sighed softly, realizing there was nothing she could do to help.
If it were other major cities in China, like Shanghai or Shenzhen, it would be easier to say, as he remembered having students there.
He could swallow his pride and ask for help, but in Hong Kong, he knew no one there.
Um?!
Beside her, Xu Wanrong's eyes lit up; she suddenly felt this was an opportunity.
A golden opportunity!!!
She was feeling down because Ye Chen and Su Ningshuang had just put her in such a bad mood.
Now is the time for her to step forward and prove her abilities and connections!
Xu Wanrong glanced at Ye Chen with a look of smugness and provocation, then stood up and spoke confidently:
"Teacher, I have a solution!!!"
