Chapter 368 The sailing competition [39] Pulling the wind to play, it's a big battle
"Old He, that student of yours seems to have cultivated the rare Jiujiexiang? As far as this round is concerned, he is the champion, right?"
As soon as He Kui heard what Professor Lin said, He Kui immediately burst into laughter, and he couldn't hide the smile on his face.
He Kui said: "That's not necessarily the case. There are surprises at the exhibition every year. Even rarer herbs may appear if they are not kept in good condition."
Professor Lin laughed: "You are so humble."
Others chimed in:
"It is true that in the past years, rare herbs like Jiujiexiang have not appeared in surprises."
"I think it's not just the first place in this round. Don't forget, there are two sisters from the Wen family in Yan Jinzhi's team. Together, the three of them have already secured the championship."
"Looking at it this way, there is really no suspense about number one."
…
The more they talked, the more polite words He Kui said, the smile on his face increased instead of decreasing.
As for Mo Qing and others, they were completely ignored.
Lu Qiong'an comforted the three of them: "Don't be too depressed. You lost this round. Just work hard for the other two rounds. Since you have all entered the competition, don't give up so early."
Gu Wanwan spread her hands: "We haven't given up."
Lu Qiong'an gave him a thoughtful look.
——You have taken out all the herbs in the yard, and you still say you haven’t given up?
"..."
Gu Wanwan understood Lu Qiong'an's eyes and scratched his head helplessly.
Not long after.
There was a commotion in the exhibition hall.
"Isn't that the Nine-Section Incense recorded in the book?"
"Who planted it?"
"Yan Jinzhi, that popular little internet celebrity, is said to be the young master of Sanming Pharmaceutical."
"It's such a big deal!"
"The background of forming a team with him is not small. The sisters of the Wen family are already considered to be semi-famous figures. I think their team is already destined to win the championship."
"It's no use. There are so many big guys here this year. In contrast, we are just here to make up the numbers."
"Who else is there?"
"Ji Yunxi! This freshman in the medical school is also a great person."
…
When the surrounding people were talking, Mo Qing and others looked towards the source of the commotion.
Only a few volunteers were seen leading the way. Yan Jinzhi held the Jiujie Incense in his hand and walked proudly among the crowd, surrounded by envious and amazed eyes.
Yan Jinzhi looked arrogant and arrogant.
"The Jiujiexiang has bloomed, and it's been well maintained."
On this side, Professor Lin looked at the Jiujie Incense in Yan Jinzhi's hand and sighed.
He Kui smiled and said: "This kid usually makes a hammer and a stick here and there. I don't know what he is doing. He just does it casually. I didn't expect that he would actually do it."
Professor Lin said: "Can Jiujiexiang be grown so well in the north with just a little effort?"
"Who knows about him?" He Kui said, "He is not as interested in medicinal herbs as Gu Wanwan. It would be good if he can go to the medicinal garden once a week."
He Kui said to Lu Qiong'an: "Old Lu, do you think so?"
Both inside and outside the words were mocking Gu Wanwan—and naturally including Gu Wanwan’s mentor, Lu Qiong’an.
Gu Wanwan stayed in the medicine garden every day, wishing to be with the herbs all the time. Although there were some modest results, in the end, she didn't cultivate herbs like Jiujie Xiang, right?
What's more, now the medicine garden has been destroyed.
And his students, He Kui, spent three days fishing and two days drying nets, and still cultivated Jiujie Xiang.
Isn't it obvious who has the better talent?
The smell of gunpowder suddenly rose in the air.
Everyone knows it.
——Although He Kui and Lu Qiong'an are old friends, He Kui has always been inferior to Lu Qiong'an in academic research. He Kui is somewhat competitive with Lu Qiong'an.
——Nowadays, when students compete, he has the upper hand, so he is naturally proud.
"Yes," before Lu Qiong'an could speak, Gu Wanwan spoke first, "I cultivate herbal medicine purely by spending money and relying on Professor Lu's guidance. Unlike Yan Jinzhi, his family is full of technicians."
This was said in a strange and eccentric way.
But it also satirized He Kui well.
——Yan Jinzhi planted Jiujie Xiang, but is that your credit? Isn’t it because there are technical experts from the Yan family behind him?
He Kui's expression turned stiff.
In the past, Gu Wanwan was still very polite in front of him. Since the destruction of the medicine garden, Gu Wanwan was like a wild horse running wild, not caring about anyone's face.
It's like being driven crazy.
"This Jiujie Incense, I have only seen medicinal materials before, this is the first time I have seen fresh ones." Lu Qiong'an changed the subject, "Let's go and take a look together."
Professor Lin also quickly smoothed things over: "Yes, yes, it's my first time meeting you, let's go together."
Others all agreed.
He Kui's complexion finally improved.
However, Gu Wanwan acted like a monster again at this time: "Professor Lu, our herbal medicine is coming out soon. We won't take a look at the Jiujiexiang until later. Let's take a look at ours first."
Lu Qiong'an: "..."
Shut up!
I called you here to let you get to know other professors better, not to offend anyone!
He Kui had just regained his composure, but upon hearing Gu Wanwan's words, he couldn't bear it anymore.
He said angrily: "Look at the weeds growing in your yard?"
Gu Wanwan squinted his eyes, not angry at all.
Mo Qing and Jiang Ke were happy to watch the show.
Mo Qing glanced at the phone: "Ji Yunxi hasn't come out yet?"
Jiang Ke said: "Soon."
"Contacted?"
"Um."
Jiang put the phone back into his pocket without leaving any trace.
Mo Qing raised his eyebrows.
The two of them just stood aside, acting like "we are just watching a show."
At this time, Yan Jinzhi, who was surrounded by people and was highly sought after, squeezed out from the crowd, said hello to several professors, and then gave Gu Wanwan a disdainful look.
Professor Lin said: "We just wanted to take a look at your Jiujie Incense."
Yan Jinzhi smiled and said: "Really? I can just introduce it to you——"
He didn't finish his words.
Because, in his field of vision, more than ten bodyguards in suits suddenly appeared.
The appearance of these people suddenly attracted the attention of everyone present.
The bodyguards stood in two rows, one on the left and one on the right.
"Who is it? Such a big pomp?"
"They say they are afraid that we will damage their precious medicinal herbs!"
"Hey! Who cares?"
"It's so shameless."
"I want to see which group is so bluffing and sensationalizing."
…
Everyone else is talking.
They all put their feet up to look at the people surrounded by bodyguards.
As the people came closer, they finally saw clearly——
