Since 1983

"The Kao Contest is on fire, and Guo Fengyi recreates the legend!"

"The first-class flower sold 30,000 yuan on the spot, can Kao break the record in the end?"

"Nearly a thousand people signed up on the first day, once again crowding Stalin Avenue!"

...

This Spring Festival in Spring City is completely heated up because of the Kao Contest.

After the first day of testing and deliberation, the second day went crazy. Before dawn, there were people nesting at the entrance of the mall to take up positions. After the doors opened, the number doubled.

The registration fee of 5 yuan is very important to ordinary people, but in the eyes of this group of speculators, it is not a big deal at all. Especially for some speculators, what they get is public funds.

In the past, there were no rules for buying and selling, but the emergence of the Kao Contest broke the previous disorder. It seems that someone suddenly stood up and told you that this pot is good and this pot is bad.

The game was quickly embraced by everyone.

Because Guo Fengyi and Yang Zonghai are in charge, it represents authority in itself, coupled with this novel and effective rule... It's okay not to play, but who doesn't want to play? For them, it is even more of an opportunity. Spending five yuan can increase the value of their money by a hundred times.

Ever since, the A, B, and C grades in the competition have directly become the value standard for judging a potted flower.

From the second day onwards, the entrance of the mall was also crowded with people with different accents, and every time someone came out, they rushed up to inquire.

Don't talk about A, B, and C, just talk about the pieces of paper pasted on them, which are called red labels, blue labels, and yellow labels. Few people are interested in the yellow label, the price is less than 2,000;

Ten thousand, twenty thousand, thirty thousand... the highest pot has sold for one hundred thousand!

There are also those who harvest blue and yellow labels, go upstairs directly to the refrigerator counter to put the flowers outside the mall.

"I want a refrigerator, use this for it!"

"Sorry sir, we only accept cash here."

"What? Where's your manager? Call your manager."

The manager was also taken aback when he came, but fortunately, the leaders of the mall had already given orders.

"Can you change it? Can you change it!!!"

Shoppers slapped the counter, their eyes bloodshot.

"Yes, of course! Go quickly, show this gentleman to the refrigerator, and ask for the latest one!"

There were onlookers who saw this and followed suit one after another, finding areas such as color TVs and motorcycles. A strange scene suddenly appeared in the shopping mall. Pots of flowers were given out, and exquisite home appliances were brought out.

Even people from nearby provinces and cities heard the news and tried their best to work here in order to get involved before the end of the competition.

In Spring City, the whole city seemed to be in a frenzied and unstoppable blowout state.

...

That night, in a private room of a high-end hotel.

The three of Xu Fei had been busy for a whole day, and they were exhausted. They managed to last until the end, so Guo Fengyi was the host and came here for a small gathering.

He took out two envelopes and said with a smile: "This is the registration income. According to the prior agreement, I will give you two dividends."

Xu Fei pinched the thickness, it was about 1,000 yuan, and it was about the same after thinking about it. The other party sent people out, out of the venue, and also gave out a bonus of 18,000, so they got the most points, and according to this kind of flow of people, there was still a little left in the end.

Of course, what Guo Fengyi wants is not money, but fame and status in the flower industry. He was physically exhausted, but his spirit was extremely excited. This was probably the most glorious moment of his life.

"To be honest, I didn't expect the Kao Contest to be held like this. Thanks to the help of you two, come, let me toast first!"

when!

The three had a drink.

Yang Zonghai was so hungry that he ate for a while before wiping his mouth and said, "Old Guo, we have known each other for ten years, and I will not mess with you. Someone came to me in the morning and asked me to keep the potted flowers."

"Who is looking for you?"

"Can I tell you this? It's useless to say it. Anyway, do you agree with it?"

"What does he mean, to take Kao?"

"Don't dare, the top three will do."

After hearing this, Xu Fei said, "Then I'll say it straight, I also want to keep the potted flowers."

"oh?"

Guo Fengyi wasn't angry at all, he came all the way to help you with advice, there must be some profit pursuit, it was all expected.

He smoked a cigarette and said for a while: "To be honest, someone greeted me last night. I can't afford to provoke this person. Director Liu, even though you are from the capital, I think you can't afford to be provoked either. He You also want to be in the top three, and you also want to be in the top three, as long as the flowers are good, there is no problem. But if other people’s flowers are also good, how can we judge, if the evaluation is not convincing, my reputation will be damaged.”

"It's easy."

Xu Fei adjusted his glasses, and said with a smile: "The right of interpretation is in our hands, and it doesn't matter how we do it. You think there are too few champions, second places, and candidates. It's just that there are not enough places. Then we can have another twelve beauties? Absolutely!"

It’s not enough to have another Thirty-Six Heavenly Gang, right? If it's not enough, can three thousand beauties do it? The problem is dead, the brain is alive, there is always a way to coordinate.

The number of places is limited, so expand it, this is called sharing pork. "

"..."

How can you do this? Guo Fengyi and Yang Zonghai stared wide-eyed, and finally raised their wine glasses, "Director Liu, don't say anything, let's do it!"

After the dinner was over, Xu Fei went back to his residence alone.

Walking swayingly on the road, suddenly a few guys came around. He thought it was a robbery, and was about to run away, but saw a man in a woolen coat slowly approaching, with a smile on his face.

"Director Liu, take care of me the day after tomorrow."

"A small meaning is not a respect."

He suddenly felt that his hand sank, and there was an extra paper bag, and after seeing if those people were talking nonsense, he wiped himself and left.

Xu Fei had a strange expression on his face. When he returned to the hotel, he opened the paper bag. Inside was a pile of money, a note and a blade.

On the note is a Clivia plant information, which is slightly familiar, and it is exactly what I have seen today.

"Tsk, it's a bit over the top."

He smacked his lips, but he didn't panic, and called his father again.

"Dad, you can sign up again tomorrow, and sell the remaining pot of flowers, the one with the highest price will get it."

"We can't wait for Kao. Many people are staring at it now. I think the government will also intervene. We can earn as much as we can."

"Go to the train station again and buy two tickets for tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. Oh, by the way, you can change your outfit tomorrow so that no one will recognize you. You are still a small character..."

Snapped!

Dad hung up.

…………

On the third day, in the afternoon.

Xu Xiaowen limped into the department store wearing a hat and a mask. He came here once yesterday to rate the three potted flowers that were not in good condition.

Two pots are C, which sold for 4,000 yuan, and one pot is B, which sold for 9,000 yuan.

Rao came here twice, but when he went inside and saw his son's image changed drastically, sitting there like an old Tarzan, he still couldn't help but want to kick him.

He slowly lined up, and when he arrived in front of Director Liu, he saw him sizing up for a while, and said with a smile: "This plant is interesting, there are many technicians in Huang, but this plant wins in the most standard.

You can see that the leaf sheath is wedge-shaped, the tip of the leaf is like a sword, the main veins are large and sparse, and the horizontal veins of the side veins are especially sparse, and the word "Tian" is obviously raised. The leaves are oily and waxy, yellow and green, not bad. "

Guo Fengyi, who was next to him, knew that this was the flower he wanted to keep, and he also praised it, "It's really good, Ye Yi, the technician Huang, is easy to raise, and there are not many flowers that are so good."

Yang Zonghai over there also said, "Look at the petals are like gold powder, there will be no sun here, if the sun is sufficient, it will look like a gold star when placed underneath, it will be very beautiful."

Buzz buzz!

The unanimous praise of the three experts caused quite a commotion, and everyone behind them wanted to see it. In fact, the appearance of this plant is relatively good, but I can't help but praise it!

All of a sudden, several buddies gesticulated outside, and the pia window outside also expressed acceptance.

Xu Fei took the red label and stuck it on the basin, Xu Xiaowen went to register again, using the second fake information. This is good these days, the concept of identity is too vague.

Xu Xiaowen walked out with the suitcase in his arms, and the eyes of others were all wrong along the way. The performance of the three experts can only show one thing, this potted flower will be a strong contender for Kao!

When he came out, more than a dozen people rushed over.

"Brother, can you sell it for 20,000?"

As soon as the first person said a word, he was blasted away, and the price soared, "I'll offer 50,000! 50,000!"

"Sixty thousand!"

"Eighty thousand!"

"One hundred thousand!"

Surrounded by more than a dozen people, the small place boiled like a stove boiling water, and the number quickly rose to 100,000.

Everyone's breathing is a bit heavy. Since Chuncheng's Clivia trade, the highest record is 140,000. Here in the Kao Competition, the highest record is 100,000.

"One hundred thousand, brother, don't you think about it?"

"Brother, tell me something!"

Xu Xiaowen was in a hurry to make a price offer, but Xu Xiaowen just kept shaking his head. In fact, he was even shaking his toes, but he resisted it. It's not like the old man has never seen the world when he travels all over the world.

He felt there was still room!

"One hundred thousand is not enough?"

"Brother, stay steady, I can't stand it."

Immediately, five or six people dispersed, and the rest didn't ask for a price, holding back Xu Xiaowen.

Xu Xiaowen really didn't pay attention, and continued to walk with a limp, walking slowly, those people's hearts were like cats scratching, their stomachs and stomachs were mixed together and felt uncomfortable.

Finally, someone couldn't bear it and ran forward, "120,000! I'll pay 120,000!"

"Not yet, then tell me, how much is it?"

"..."

Dad finally stopped and stretched out his hand to count.

(The data and small examples in these chapters, don’t feel ridiculous, they all happened in those years.)
