"How much is it worth?" Father Chen asked.
"This is wild ginseng... It's tall and full, but it's of average quality. It's a hundred years old, and the price of fresh ginseng is around 5,000 yuan." The old pedant said.
"Huh? Only 5,000 yuan?" Father Chen stood up.
"It's 5,000 yuan per gram. This ginseng should be around 120 grams." The old scholar said.
"600,000?" Father Chen's voice became joyful again.
The old scholar nodded and said, "This price is not low, because ginseng is priceless, and it is this price when it is circulated in the market. But if you meet someone who needs it urgently, you can say that it is worth 1 million or 2 million. Mr. Chen, you can consider keeping this elder in the hall, and I will pay you 600,000 yuan here."
Father Chen looked at Chen Chuan happily, 600,000 was quite a lot.
However, you have to shop around when buying goods, and the same is true for selling goods.
Chen Chuan was skeptical of the old pedant's words. This old guy wore glasses and squinted his eyes, making it difficult to see the truth from what he said.
Chen's father whispered to Chen Chuan: "Son, what do you think? 600,000 is not a lot, but one thing to say, I think the body you dug up is very beautiful, and the size is enough..."
Chen Chuan didn't understand this even more, and shook his head and said, "We are all laymen, why don't we try another place?"
"Don't you have a friend who is a genius doctor? She massages your grandma for migraines, and you come to our house for dinner. Ask her to see if she understands." Father Chen reminded.
"What do you mean by Shen Fangfei?"
Chen Chuan took a photo of Shen Fangfei and sent it to Shen Fangfei.
Not long after, Shen Fangfei replied with a voice: "Hey, this old plant looks good. The reed bowls grow close to each other, with round arms and round reed jujube cores, tight skin with fine lines and pimples, and long and clear whiskers like leather strips. There are no insects. Scars and rot, five elements and five beauties are shiny, and the shape is like a round gourd, which belongs to the top-level gourd-shaped ginseng. Where did you get it? Did you give your grandma a boost? In fact, her illness is not a big problem, and this kind of top-quality ginseng is not needed , the big tonic will be harmful to her."
"How much is this ginseng worth per gram?" Chen Chuan asked again.
Shen Fangfei replied in voice: "Ginseng in the wild state grows very slowly due to malnutrition. Some century-old ginseng is less than 10 grams. Your 120 grams of ginseng, this quality, can no longer be measured by how much per gram. Yes. When you get it at the auction, you have to bid at least three to five million yuan, right? I can’t say the exact price, but if you really want to be specific, I have to ask my old man.”
Three to five million.
Father Chen and Chen Chuan looked at each other.
In the hall of Tongshitang, several old scholars also looked at each other, and one of them said coldly: "Where is the little hairy girl who dares to talk nonsense? The pearl bumps on this ginseng are not obvious enough. The tooth white on the surface is not shiny enough, and there are not enough pearl spots, and it is not a super-quality appearance. "
"Oh, thank you guys, let's go home and do the totaling. Chen Chuan, accept the participation." Father Chen said.
Seeing that Chen Chuan put away the ginseng, several old scholars looked at each other and said, "Mr. Chen, if you are really interested, I can ask the owner of our shop. He doesn't care about money. Maybe the price he gives can be more suitable. Do you care?"
"Next time, next time." Father Chen said.
"One million?" the old pedant said directly.
"Let's go back and think about it..." Father Chen pulled Chen Chuan out.
"Hey, Mr. Chen... just wait a moment." The old pedant followed, and said, "I said, I have seen the reference for 30 years, but I am not sure about this reference. If my quotation just now offends you, please bear with me. .Our bid with Shitang is sincere, you stay, let's talk again?"
Another old scholar also caught up, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Mr. Chen, let me give you a solid background. In 2016, a small ginseng king came out in the Northeast. The quality is better than yours, and the auction price is 3.8 million. You The two of you are nobles who have dug up the elders. We will not go to dig nobles in this business. It is something that offends the mountain god. For your plant, let's sit down and talk about it based on 300, how about it?"
"Three, three million?" Chen's father stopped, looked at Chen Chuan, and suddenly said, "Chuan, why don't you just call your little genius doctor friend and check it out for us. If it sells for a good price, we won't What's wrong with her?"
Chen Chuan nodded and sent Shen Fangfei the location.
Shen Fangfei: "I'm training at the headquarters. Just after class, what are you doing on Herbal Street? Buying ginseng or selling ginseng? I'll go right away."
Fifteen minutes later.
Wearing black skinny jeans and a black windbreaker, Shen Fangfei stepped into Tongshitang.
Several old scholars in the hall narrowed their eyes at the same time, looking back at the person who came in.
The air seemed stagnant.
No one said a word.
Shen Fangfei glanced at the scene slightly, and had already understood the situation in general, and asked Chen Chuan, "Where is Shen?"
Chen Chuan opened the box and put it in front of Shen Fangfei.
Shen Fangfei squinted her eyes and stared at Renren from a distance of one meter. Then she took out the glasses case from her coat pocket, opened it, took out the rimless glasses and put them on, and pushed the glasses with her index finger. Ginseng said nothing.
There was a trace of uneasiness in the eyes of several old scholars in the hall, and someone went to the side to make a phone call.
Shen Fangfei watched it for about 3 minutes, then said slowly, "Seven million and a half million."
"Bold!"
"presumptuous!"
"rude!"
Several old scholars shouted at the same time.
"Where is the little girl messing around in Tongshitang?" The old pedant raised his voice.
Shen Fangfei smiled, took off her glasses, put them away, and said with a smile: "What are you guys doing, singing? Do you do business? You pay attention to harmony and wealth. I just taste and discuss products, and there are no bad rules. This ginseng is stable and stable. She has a nimble body and understands everything. In my opinion, the girl is worth 7.5 million yuan or more. Buy it if you can afford it. If you can’t afford it, I’ll find a buyer.”
"Where is the girl from?" a person on the opposite side asked.
"The director of TV sales, you can contact me to buy a TV, and I will give you a discount." Shen Fangfei said.
The air froze again, several old scholars exchanged glances, and turned their main attack direction to Father Chen.
"Mr. Chen, this is 5.5 million yuan. Tongshitang wants it. You can transfer the money immediately, and you will receive the payment within 1 minute." A person said.
Father Chen looked at Chen Chuan.
Chen Chuan didn't care, 5.5 million and 7.5 million were not bad, but these old guys only offered less than one-tenth of the price at the beginning, which was too much.
Chen Chuan looked at Shen Fangfei.
Shen Fangfei said: "7.5 million, I will find a buyer for you. Several old friends of my dad must be interested in this ginseng. Chen Chuan, cough, I will guarantee you 7.5 million. If I can sell it for more Sell it for a few dollars... "
Chen Chuan laughed. This Shen Fangfei rolled her eyes, as if she had figured out a way to steal money from some of his father's old friends
Chen's father also understood the situation, feeling that his son had really found a treasure, 7.5 million, and he didn't have to worry about selling it, so there is no hurry, let's withdraw first.
After returning home, Father Chen also started to mobilize his contacts. After searching in many ways and doing his own homework, he finally deduced that the price of this ginseng plant was indeed around 7 million. As for the age of the ginseng, it should be around 200 years old.
But for this thing, there is no absolute number, it can only be guessed roughly.
Shen Fangfei went to make a call, and it took a long time.
At noon, Father Chen, Chen Chuan, and Shen Fangfei found a restaurant for dinner.
Shen Fangfei didn't hide it, and said her little abacus: "Uncle Chen, Chen Chuan, this ginseng is of good quality. The actual price is around 7 million, because there was a case before, there was a 200-year-old ginseng, The auction price was 5.5 million. The appearance of this ginseng is similar to that one, but it is a bit bigger. The price should be 7 million. Then, I was looking for a buyer in southern Sichuan. My father has been a doctor for many years and knows a lot of people. Owner of the money, this is with them, and I think it can be sold for 7.5 million. Then, I will try to sell as much money as possible, and I will get 30% of the more sold, do you think it is okay?"
Father Chen did some calculations and said, "In other words, if you sell for 8 million, then even if you sold 500,000 more, you will get 150,000 rebates. Is that what you mean?"
