Chapter 142 Empress Of Tea

“Open it.” Yang Wei is also very interested in the “big basket.”

“I think he is blowing hot air, how can he still give a gift better than that pearl?” Li Wei looked incredulous.

“Just open it and see if he can.” Lu Qingya said.

“Well, just take it apart.” Shi Qing is very speechless to these guys, whether she receives gifts herself or not, why are they more anxious than her? Shi Qing looked at Su Jing and saw that Su Jing had no objection. He took apart the “big basket”. In fact, the surface layer of the basket was made of bamboo, just like a birdcage, but only a single layer of paper was added. Untying the rope above, the basket was like a flower, splitting into four petals and revealing the contents.

Inside is a flowerpot and a plant, which is more than half a meter tall and looks very good. At first glance, it looks like a work of art and the emerald leaves and golden flowers match and creates a perfect picture. Looking closely at the cup of golden flowers, it is more beautiful and elegant, but the flower also sends out a burst of fragrance that is pleasant to smell.

“What a beautiful flower!” Fan Zhiruo couldn’t help praising.

“How fragrant!” Yang Wei sniffed her nose.

“It’s just a pot of flowers.” Li Wei pouted his lips, thinking that it was just a pot of flowers. Where could it compare with pearls?

“Where did you get this from, Su Jung?” This time it was Lu Qingya’s turn to be excited. She rushed to the flower and stared at the potted flower. Her eyes became brighter and brighter, just like two small stars.

This makes Yang Wei, Shi Qing, Fan Zhiruo, Li Wei and others stunned. It’s just a pot of flowers. Do you really need to react so much? But they all know that Lu Qingya works in a gardening company. Her teacher is a master gardener. She is also going to participate in the gardening contest and nobody here knows flowers better than she does. She’s so excited. What kind of precious flower is it?

“I planted it myself.” Su Jung answered.

“Is this a new breed that you cultivated? The golden camellia has a concave vein, prominent veins, petals, hairy petals, and so on, but this one seems not to be any of them, but a little biased towards petals, I have never seen such a beautiful flower.” Lu Qingya’s tone was exciting.

“This… I bought seeds. I don’t know if it’s a new variety.” Su Jing said, thinking that this is a golden camellia from the perfect world, not belonging to the earth, it must be a new species. However, Su Jing’s words are naturally buried in his heart and can not be said out loud.

“The whole camellia is distributed from stem to branch, to leaf, to flower. The style is elegant in shape and it has a quiet and far-reaching artistic conception, it can be called a work of art, did you prune it?” Lu Qingya said that with slightly trembling lips while keeping an eye on Su Jing. She hopes to hear that this camellia flower is not pruned by Su Jing, but by some master gardener. Otherwise, with Su Jing’s amateur abilities, this would be a disaster.

“This golden camellia has never been pruned,” Su Shi said. He is thinking about the backward tribes of the perfect world, for them, the main purpose of planting golden camellia is not to appreciate its beauty, but for medicinal purpose. Life in a small tribal is already difficult, how can they have any mood to engage in gardening? However, there are people who love beauty. They may choose good varieties everywhere and naturally, they will choose some that look good on their own.

“You haven’t trimmed it?” Lu Qingya stared at the camellia flower for a while, and sure enough, no trace of pruning was found. Even if ordinary people had pruned it, they might not be able to see it. But Lu Qingya did not believe that any pruning could hide from her eyes. She was thrilled. “It seems that it has not been pruned yet. It naturally grew up like this. That’s amazing. This is a priceless treasure.”

“Is there a need for such exaggeration?” Yang Wei was surprised.

“Yes, it is just a pot of flowers.” Li Wei also said.

“What is this golden camellia?” Fan Wei did not understand and asked humbly.

“For your popularization of science, Camellia japonica, along with the precious “plant living fossils” such as silver fir, alder, and davidia, is one of the eight first-class protected plants in China. It is called the magical Oriental Magic Tea abroad and is known as the giant panda in the botanical world and the Empress of the Tea. Ordinary potted Golden Camellia plants are priced from thousands to tens of thousands of yuan. Nevertheless, it is not unusual for them to be sold at hundreds of thousands or even millions of yuan as potted Golden Camellia plants have great value for appreciation. As long as someone likes it, there is no ceiling on price. This Golden Camellia has not been pruned. If it continues to grow like this, it will be absolutely exotic. Once the news of this flower is spread, it will surely shock the horticultural circles.” Lu Qingya talked eloquently.

Shi Qing, Yang Wei, Fan Zhiruo and others breathed in the cool air and looked at the Golden Camellia in front of them differently. Li Wei was shocked that such a plant could be worth more than a million yuan. If so, it would be much more precious than that pearl. He could not help glancing at Su Jing, thinking that Su Jing was not a fisherman, how could he deliver so many precious things? This guy is too rich, right?

“Qing Qing, will you lend me this golden camellia to participate in the flower contest? I’ll give it back to you after that. I promise I won’t hurt it at all.” Lu Qingya took the arm of Shi Qing and looked at her with pitiful eyes.

“This…” Shi Qing can’t refuse her girlfriend’s request, but this golden camellia is too precious to accept even with her relationship with Su Jing. Besides, this is Su Jing’s gift. Even if she does accept it, she has to keep it well by herself. How can it be used so casually?

“If you want, I can bring you another one to compete.” Su Jing laughed.

“What, you still have more?” Lu Qingya, Yang Wei and Fan Zhiruo said in a flurry of exclamations. Such a beautiful potted flower which is worth millions of yuan and you actually have more than one? Lv Qingya asked excitedly, “How many others do you have, as perfect as this one?”

“There are two other, they are different in shape from this one, but they are also very beautiful. I’ll give you one for the competition, but you have to help me publicize it. If you sell it, the money will go to me. Maybe we can cooperate further in the future.” Su Jing said.

“No problem.” Lu Qingya promised excitedly, she would be satisfied to have this golden camellia to compete in the competition. It was originally Su Jing’s and the money she would sell it for will naturally be returned to Su Jing. In addition, Su Jing said that there can be further cooperation which also made her secretly happy, it seems that Su Jing can also cultivate good varieties of flowers.

Lu Qingya was very excited. She wanted to see what kind of expressions her teacher would have when she sees such a perfect potted Golden Camellia. What kind of sensation will the horticultural circles get when the golden camellia appears in the horticultural contest? It’s exciting to think about it. (to be continued ^)
