271 Shocked
The couple exchanged some thoughts and found that they both had the same idea. The orchids were valuable but it had cost them almost nothing to get them. So they decided to give one pot to each of the two young masters.
If they wanted to have more, they could sell them at most two pots respectively at a proper price.
Qiao Xuan smiled at Shao Yunduan. “I never expected that orchids could be so valuable in the mountains… we can go and fetch some more if we get time.”
Shao Yunduan smiled, fearing that she would get disappointed if she failed to find any more. “These aren’t vegetables in the garden, how can they be found so easily? It is our luck to have found these orchids. If it is very easy to find them, people could have gotten them earlier.”
That was a reasonable thing to say.
Qiao Xuan nodded with a smile. She put forward a slight look of disappointment. “Yeah, you are right!”
She could not possibly reveal her superpower, nor could she do anything big to tell others that she could turn the orchids into expensive and valuable varieties.
She could not explain everything with just ‘luck’.
However, on the positive side, this basically meant that she had one more industry to develop. She could build an orchid base to cultivate new variants, and promote some for auction.
That meant keeping a low-profile.
Also, those things needed to stay rare, so they could be valuable.
The more there were, the less they would cost.
She needed to hold an auction, so the goods could look valuable.
Shao Yunduan expressed his ideas and Yuezheng Xiao, Xie Jingrong picked one pot respectively and bought two more.
Yuezheng Xiao decided to take them home as back presents, whilst Xie Jingrong bought them out of his own hobby.
The two men did not hesitate at all!
Shao Yunduan had so many here.
Also, Shao Yunduan did not seem to be interested in the flowers either, so they were assured that they could take them home.
They would not have wanted to take them, if Shao Yunduan was unwilling to share.
They gave them 1,000 liang.
That was the market price.
Shao Yunduan accepted the money since they picked what they wanted very fast.
Soon, Qiao Xuan had lunch ready and asked the three men to gather at the table.
Shao Sanlang and Shao Dalang were both home and when they saw the honored guests, they felt quite nervous.
They greeted each other and left.
At lunch, Shao Yunduan kept Yuezheng Xiao and Xie Jingrong company at one table, whilst the others were eating at another.
The table in the kitchen was very small, and Shao Sanlang, as well as Shao Dalang ate in the back yard with food. They did not mind the treatment.
They did not want to share the table with Shao Yunduan and the two young masters.
Seeing the table full of food, Yuezheng Xiao and Xie Jingrong were shocked.
They had eaten all kinds of expensive dishes…
But they were shocked to have been presented with such a large table of dishes within a short period of time.
Especially those cold dishes, the snow-white yam slices and fungus were distinct in black and white, and they were very crisp and refreshing at first glance, the wolfberry buds were green and refreshing, the beans were green, and the sesame paste was glistening on top, which instantly made it look attractive.
