Chapter 223 Let the pumpkin lovers continue to flourish
Human beings attach value to these beautiful jade stones because of their preferences. Because they are rare, they become expensive, but if they are not sold, they are just a pile of stones.
Qin Guan is not short of jade now, and he hopes to exchange them for money.
At least part of it.
"Jingle Bell".
Qin Guan's cell phone rang.
I picked it up and saw that it was my father's number. I quickly connected it: "Dad."
"where is it?"
"I just had dinner with my classmates and just returned to my place." Qin Guan replied.
"Do you still remember what day tomorrow is?" Qin Han asked.
Qin Guan's mind turned around, he immediately remembered it, and said immediately: "Of course you remember, tomorrow is my mother's birthday."
"You just remember, brat, and go home early tomorrow to celebrate your mother's birthday," Qin Han said.
"I'll go back early in the morning."
The next morning, Qin Guan bought a cake and went home. When he saw his mother, he hugged her and said, "Happy birthday, Mom."
Tang Ying patted her son on the shoulder and said, "Okay, okay, mom still has to cook."
"Mom, don't move. You are the birthday girl today. My dad and I are here to cook. Just wait and eat." Qin Guan said attentively.
Qin Han came out of the kitchen and said to Qin Guan: "What you said is very nice. Do you know how to cook? In the end, you still have to leave it to me."
"I'll pick vegetables for you." Qin Guan ran into the kitchen with a smile.
Tang Ying stood at the door of the kitchen, watching her husband and son busy at work, and smiled sweetly.
The food was served, candles were put on the cake, Tang Ying blew out the candles after making a wish, and Qin Guan shouted: "I wish my mother a happy birthday. Today will come every year, she will always be young and beautiful, and she will be happy every day."
As he spoke, he stepped forward and kissed his mother.
Qin Han took a bouquet of roses from the side, kissed Tang Ying's other face, and then said: "Wife, I will always love you."
You don’t need to say much, this sentence is enough.
Looking at his mother's happy look, Qin Guan had to admit that his father was really a master at coaxing women.
But it’s good to think about it. Mom always lives in happiness, isn’t it good?
Seeing that the two of them were still staring at each other affectionately, Qin Guan couldn't stand it anymore.
"Mom, this is my gift to you."
Qin Guan took out the gift box he had prepared and handed it over with both hands.
Tang Ying turned her head and looked at her son, "What is the gift for mom?"
"open to take a look."
Qin Guan raised his eyes as if offering a treasure.
Tang Ying was curious and opened the gift box and found that it was an exquisite small jewelry box. After opening the lid, Tang Ying opened her mouth in surprise.
Qin Han looked at the things inside and looked at his son: "This is true!"
"Of course, I'll give it to my dear mother, can I give you a fake one?" Qin Guandao.
There are two bracelets lying quietly in the jewelry box, one white and one green, white as suet and green as green leaves, they complement each other beautifully.
Qin Guan pointed to the white one and said, "This is the top grade mutton-fat jade," and pointed to the green bracelet and said, "This is glass emerald."
"You can wear different clothes when you go out."
Tang Ying looked at her son, "How did you get these two bracelets?"
Qin Guan had already thought of his words, "Mom, I have been doing jade business, I bought this from a friend."
"how much did you spend."
Qin Guan smiled and said, "Mom, this is a gift for you. How can I ask about the price?"
Qin Han pretended to have a serious face and said: "Don't be careless. This mutton-fat jade bracelet is estimated to cost tens of millions, and this jadeite one is more expensive, at least 30 million. You said you are in the jade business, how long have you been in it?
It’s such an expensive gift.”
Qin Guandao: "Dad, this is a legitimate business. I bought it from the source. It is not that expensive. Nowadays, the price of jade is so loud that it is inflated."
After hearing what Qin Guan said, the two of them did not delve into it further.
Tang Ying loves these two bracelets very much and they look very good on her hands.
The family of three chatted and ate together. Although there were few people, they were having a good time.
Two days later, Qin Guan appeared in Hong Kong again. He now had so much jade in his hands, so naturally he wanted to sell it. It would be more direct to auction it.
This time Qin Guan chose another auction house, Sotheby's. People from Sotheby's took it very seriously when they heard that Qin Guan was going to auction a batch of jade rough stones. They sent two experts to be responsible for the appraisal. Qin Guan took out several top-quality jade rough stones.
, handed over more than ten pieces of top-grade Tianhuang to the other party.
Everyone at Sotheby's was surprised by Qin Guan's generosity. In the end, the reserve price was calculated to be as high as more than 70 million US dollars.
This is just the base price, it is definitely a big deal, and Sotheby's promises to publicize it well.
After signing the contract, Qin Guan left his Citibank account number and left.
As for the other party's invitation to attend the auction house, Qin Guan had lost interest after experiencing it last time and just replied that he would come when he had time.
After returning to Hangzhou, Qin Guan did something he had planned for a long time.
Buy seeds.
His task is to guard one side of the country. Xiongzhou belongs to the northern border. If calculated according to the geography of modern time and space, it should be Shanxi. It belongs to the north. The climate is dry and hilly. The harvest from planting millet and wheat is very small. Many people can't even grow alone.
Not enough to fill.
In fact, this is not only the case in Xiongzhou, but also in Hexi, Henan, Hebei, Shan, Shaanxi and other provinces of the Great Zhao Kingdom.
Corn, sweet potatoes, peanuts and other crops that were mainly grown here in later generations have not yet been introduced and should still be growing in South America.
Qin Guan decided to directly introduce these crops and then gradually popularize them to improve the people's food problem. This should be regarded as one of the achievements of Mu Shou.
For this reason, Qin Guan still lacks a lot of relevant knowledge about modern crops.
Such crops as pumpkins, sweet potatoes, potatoes, corn, peanuts, sunflowers, peppers, tomatoes, tobacco, etc... These crops,
They were all introduced to China from the Ming Dynasty, and Qin Guan planned to let them continue to flourish and benefit mankind in the Zhao Kingdom in another time and space.
Qin Guan found a seed company and directly requested to buy high-quality conventional seeds, the kind that can be saved and not the kind that degrade rapidly after one generation.
Qin Guan discovered that these conventional seeds were actually more expensive than high-yielding seeds. Because of space capacity constraints, he asked for a portion of each type.
Then I prepared a lot of information on crop planting, preparing to become an agricultural technician in the future.
A time travel only lasted three months. Qin Guan discovered that he used to think that going to the plane world was just a short trip, but he increasingly saw that his time in the real world was really limited.
He believed that the tasks in the future would become more and more difficult and the time would become longer and longer. However, he would only be back for a fixed period of a few months. Now he could no longer tell who was the leader and who was the deputy.
Originally, he was almost ready, but he was not in a hurry to return to the ancient plane, but instead enjoyed the life of modern time and space.
