Grandma Su felt as if she were truly dreaming, a dream that had lasted for days without waking.
Otherwise, why would she imagine something like their family suddenly becoming millionaires?
"Little Sweetheart, pinch me. Do you think I'm dreaming?"
Grandma Su, in a most endearing way, asked Su Xiaotian to pinch her quickly!
How could Su Xiaotian bear to do that? She held Grandma Su's hand with a beaming smile.
"Grandma, it's real! Don't you remember, I have the Dragon King's protection."
After hearing Su Xiaotian's words, Grandma Su suddenly felt at ease.
Indeed, Little Sweetheart was protected by the Dragon King. Hadn't she received unexpected windfalls several times before?
Adding this time, it didn't seem like much.
"Our family is now rich, truly rich?" Grandma Su's voice was somewhat distorted with excitement.
Su Xiaotian: "..."
Our family has been rich for a long time, okay?
Although not rich enough to rival a nation, like Tan Zishi in his prime, they were still a family with some assets.
After all, nowadays, when describing a family with good financial standing, people would say they were "ten-thousand-yuan households."
Any one of their siblings could be a ten-thousand-yuan household, couldn't they?
The Su family also knew that this matter was too important. If it were known, they would undoubtedly be targeted.
Therefore, the family convened a special meeting, instructing everyone not to leak this news.
The Su family members were all sensible people. Although they were shocked by the sudden windfall, they restrained their excitement and continued their work as usual.
While Grandpa Su, Grandma Su, and others went to Yiming Pavilion, leaving the house empty, Su Xiaotian directly transferred the Clivia to her portable space and then cautiously went to the warehouse she and Su Xiao Si had rented.
Su Xiaotian's flowers had been sold, and she had earned a large sum of money.
As for who bought these flowers and how they were sold, even the Su family members themselves did not know.
The Su family also did not ask how much money was exchanged.
To them, this money belonged to Su Xiaotian.
The Su family only knew that Su Xiaotian was now very wealthy.
After this matter was concluded, Su Xiaotian specifically called Su Changjiu to inquire about the two pots of flowers she had given him.
Su Changjiu replied that they were growing well and were still placed in their main hall.
Su Xiaotian informed Su Changjiu about the price increase of these flowers and said that she would have him send the two pots to the county and find Li Zhuzi.
Then, she contacted Li Zhuzi and told him about her contact person for purchasing Clivia.
Li Zhuzi, being a smart person, immediately agreed.
Although news about Clivia had spread widely, remote areas like the Northwest had not yet received the news.
Therefore, even if Clivia was placed in front of them, the people here did not know about it.
When Su Changjiu learned that a pot of flowers, after being nurtured for such a short time, had its price doubled and then doubled again, he was so shocked that he couldn't sleep for days.
Every night, lying on the kang, he felt it was unreal!
What was going on?
If growing flowers was this profitable, why bother farming?
It would be better to specialize in growing flowers for profit!
Even if the two factories in their village were now profitable, their earnings were limited.
Should they mobilize the entire village to collectively grow Clivia next year?
As a village leader, Su Changjiu had always believed in leading all villagers to prosperity.
Now, the opportunity for prosperity was right before him. Where should he go?
In just a few days, Su Changjiu had become somewhat haggard.
Su Xiaotian, being the closest person to Su Changjiu, asked him several times, but Su Changjiu could not give a clear answer.
This time, Su Xiaotian was clever and directly called the old Su family.
When Su Xiaotian learned about this, she guessed Su Changjiu's thoughts and quickly called him.
On the phone, Su Changjiu indeed shared his ideas with Su Xiaotian.
Su Xiaotian was surprised to hear Su Changjiu's thoughts.
But then, Su Xiaotian felt that it was not strange for Su Changjiu to have such thoughts.
Who would want to toil in the fields for meager earnings when there was a way to make a fortune?
However, this was not advisable.
"Uncle Changjiu, this is a distorted market economy. It appeared by chance, and we were lucky to catch it this time and made a little money."
"However, such a market will not last long. If all villagers are encouraged to grow flowers, they might lose money."
"I estimate that the country will not allow such a distorted situation to continue. In a few months at most, it will be regulated, and the price of Clivia will definitely fall."
Growing flowers also takes time and cannot be achieved overnight. It would be too late to start preparing to grow Clivia now.
Su Changjiu was momentarily blinded by such a fortunate turn of events, but he still had some rationality.
Because of Su Xiaotian's words, Su Changjiu instantly felt enlightened and sobered up.
The path to prosperity was thus nipped in the bud.
But Su Changjiu's confusion also disappeared.
Yes, how could the country allow fields that should be growing grain to be used for growing flowers?
If all the farmland were filled with inedible, undrinkable flowers, perhaps so many people would starve again!
Su Changjiu understood this simple and straightforward logic, and the leaders above understood it even more clearly.
The sudden Clivia storm had also attracted the attention of the leaders in a matter of days.
Especially after several cases of murder occurred due to the theft and robbery of Clivia, the situation of Clivia being priced at exorbitant rates was further focused on by the higher authorities.
Subsequently, multiple newspapers published manifestos criticizing the emergence of this phenomenon.
And at this time, Clivia was still increasing in price.
Some people became wealthy due to Clivia, becoming millionaires, driving luxury cars, and accompanied by secretaries.
Others, however, focused their attention on this business of effortless gain, intending to become Clivia suppliers by hook or by crook.
For the students of Peking University, all of this was merely small talk.
Soon, the classmates no longer had the mood to discuss Clivia, as the final exams for Peking University had arrived. Su Dan Novel Network
The students in Dormitory 314 had consistently been the best in their class academically.
While not impossibly far ahead, they held a definite advantage.
If it weren't for individual students having subjects they were weak in, as Huo Sinian put it, the scholarships each year should have just been given to their dorm.
He was actually curious. Originally, the students in this dorm were not the most outstanding, but in a short period, their academic performance had all improved significantly.
This phenomenon naturally attracted the attention of the school.
Ultimately, they classified this as the power of role models.
Because there was Su Xiaotian in this dorm, she had driven the entire dorm to strive for progress.
As the exams concluded, everyone felt as if they had been liberated.
The girls carefully packed their books before starting to discuss their holiday plans.
Among the three classmates whose homes were farther away, Qian Xiaobei was still the only one not going home, and the other two also decided not to go home.
"I don't know if I'll be able to stay in Beijing in the future. Perhaps these days of enjoying myself in Beijing are limited!" This was Qi Xiaofang's exact quote.
This person, with her carefree personality, was truly adaptable!
"Xiaofang, do you remember what you were like when you first came to school?"
