Twenty Years of Corpse Hunting in The Yellow River

Chapter 123: Bidding

Views:

When the words of the shopkeeper Feng came out, my heart moved, and I straightened up on the chair and looked forward. I had a little hope in my heart, as if I was betting on my life, just waiting for the treasurer Feng to open the cards.

In the small box, there must be medicinal materials, but not blood astragalus, I don't know. I just want to see, God is willing to take care of me, let me encounter blood astragalus that hasn't appeared in Zhibaozhai for more than ten years.

"Everyone, this is definitely a good thing." The shopkeeper Feng, holding the small box, walked in front of the crowd around the big table, and said: "Friends who want to buy treasure medicine, please keep your eyes open to see clearly."

"Treasurer Feng, don't make people's appetites any more, get out the things quickly."

Someone was impatient and urged. Shopkeeper Feng smiled and stretched out his hand to slowly open the box. At the moment the box was opened, my eyes did not even dared to blink, staring at the box firmly.

The box was opened, and when I looked at it, I saw a small ginseng plant inside. This ginseng plant was not big and it was snow-white, but when I glanced at it, the glimmer of hope in my heart immediately turned to fly ash.

This is not blood astragalus, this is not blood astragalus that can save my life.

I leaned back in the chair again, subconsciously feeling out of breath.

"You hide here and tell me to find it."

I was sighing. Unexpectedly, someone patted me on the shoulder. When I looked at the brick, I saw Bai Le grinning at me, grinning.

"How did you come?"

"My old man took me back a few days ago. He was so strong that he would send me back to my hometown. Fortunately, I was clever and I was not sent back." Bai Le leaned on my chair and said, "The old man came out the day before yesterday. When I came to the door and talked with people, I had to sneak out, thinking that you would probably come to Zhibaozhai to try your luck, so I came over and have a look."

"Unfortunately, that's not blood astragalus."

"Brother, it's really not blood astragalus, but it is snow ginseng even rarer than blood astragalus." After all, Bai Le grew up in Baicaoyuan, and he has more knowledge in the medicine industry than anyone else.

Most of the best old wild ginseng comes from the deep mountains and old forests in the Kanto area. There are ginseng pickers who travel through the vast forest sea and snowy fields all year round looking for wild ginseng. Common wild ginseng is in the forest, but the snow ginseng referred to by Bai Le is a different kind of wild ginseng.

This kind of snow ginseng only grows on the tops of high mountains where snow does not melt all the year round. Because of the severe cold weather, snow ginseng grows very slowly. It is said that it only grows an inch in a hundred years. The snow ginseng in Boss Feng's box is estimated to be three inches long, and it is about three hundred years long.

"The diseases that blood astragalus can cure, snow ginseng can also cure, but blood astragalus can not cure the disease, but snow can cure the disease, man, your luck is really good."

"Luck is good, but..." When I heard Bai Le's words, I felt happy at first, but after another thought, I felt worried. Snow ginseng is more precious than blood astragalus, the price is certainly not low, and this is still a treasure medicine that hasn't been seen for many years, and some people will definitely want it, and will rush to pay a high price.

I originally thought that even if I couldn't afford it, I had to see who bought it. But in the past few days, the condition has become severe again, and I panted after two steps. Even if I know who bought it, I can't keep up with others.

"Brother, it's not that I don't help you, but I'm really shy. The old man is strict with me, and he dare not pay me money on the account. If I don't have the usual expenses, I will help and buy this plant of snow. Participate in..."

"It's okay, it doesn't matter..."

"old

Brother, I have a way here, but it can only last a month. You have a way to get money this month, but you can really give it a try. "

"What way?"

Bai Le told me in a low voice that every time Zhibaozhai ships, the owner who bids to buy the goods goes to the back hall to pay. If the owner of the goods fails to pay in the end, Zhibaozhai can only re-sell the goods until the fifteenth of the next month.

Bai Le's idea can indeed squeeze out a month's time. His life is at stake, and I can't take much care of it. I'm planning whether I can find a fortune teller to exchange some of it first. If it is in normal times, the roads alternate between water and dry roads, I can find a god fortune teller to walk back and forth in a month, but I look like this, hurrying on the road, and maybe I will die in the middle of the road.

"I have a friend who may be able to exchange a sum of money, but he is far away. I am not good enough now. I am afraid that I will not be able to make it in a month."

"It doesn't get in the way. As long as your friend can cash out the money for you, you told me about the place, and I'll ask someone to run for you."

Bai Le looked serious, but he was really warm-hearted. He said that, I think it is a way.

"Brother, you don't have this clothes. You don't look like a rich master. Come and wear mine."

Bai Le pulled me aside, took off his clothes and put them on me, while confessing: "Wait a minute, you see that it's almost done. In the past, when you shouted prices, someone pressed your price. You can't let it. I hope, no matter what, I have to keep this snow ginseng first."

I nodded, took a few breaths in secret, sat back in my position, and looked around.

I was right. This snow ginseng is extremely rare and a very rare elixir. As soon as the snow ginseng showed up, many people rushed to raise the price.

I only feel that the liver trembles, a thousand yuan, that is a huge sum of money that I have never thought of. But things have forced it to this point, no matter what, I have to bite the bullet and fight for it.

"One thousand and two hundred yuan."

The price of one thousand yuan is high enough, but at this time, a young man sitting in the front row called out one thousand and two hundred yuan. This person hasn't spoken before, maybe it's too much effort, and he won't make a move until the price is about the same.

One thousand and two hundred yuan shouted out from the ocean, and there was no sound around. Some people may be able to pay the price, but they don't need snow ginseng, which is not worth it. Therefore, after the young man shouted, no one added it for the time being.

"Brother, it's a bit risky to look at this matter." Bai Le swallowed and whispered, "That young man's surname is Pan, the eldest master of the sand gang."

The sand gang referred to by Bai Le is the person who usually gathers sand on both sides of the river. Sand cannot be bought at a high price, the price is very low, but there is no worries about sales throughout the year. After careful calculation, the profit is actually huge. In addition, when the sand gangs are collecting sand, they can often get something from the bottom of the river. Therefore, the sand gangs can be regarded as the rich masters of the rivers and lakes.

The leader of the sand gang was surnamed Pan, and the young man who offered one thousand two hundred yuan in the ocean was the son of the leader. Bai Le said that although the main hall of the sand gang was not in the county seat, Pan Dashao relied on the power of the sand gang. After arriving at the county seat, no one dared to provoke him. If he went out at this joint to fight for a price increase, I am afraid it would be a little troublesome.

But I can’t take care of so much.

What Pan Dashao Pan Xiaoshao's. I stood up, walked slowly from behind, and said, "I'll pay 1,300 yuan."

As soon as this sentence was said, everyone's eyes were projected at me together, and Pan Dashao's face changed obviously, and he snorted and shouted, "Four thousand and four."

"One thousand... One thousand and five..."

"One thousand six!"

"One thousand... Seventeen thousand..."

I quarreled twice with Pan Dashao, and Pan Dashao obviously couldn't sit still. It may be that I was talking intermittently, and Pan Dashao still felt that I was in yin and yang and couldn't hold on to face. He said viciously: "A thousand and eight!"

"One thousand... One thousand nine..."

"You! Are you deliberately making trouble with me?" Pan Dashao slapped his legs and stood up: "What is your origin? I don't know who I am!?"

"I just want... I want this snow ginseng... What is there to make trouble or not..."

"Master Pan, our Zhibaozhai is a fair deal. If people want goods and dare to bid, they are not making trouble." Shopkeeper Feng wanted someone to call the price higher, so he could draw a commission from it: "Master Pan, this old man One thousand nine hundred yuan out of the ocean, do you want to add it?"

"Two thousand!" Pan Dashao was retorted by Feng shopkeeper, speechless, even more annoyed. Buying things in a place like Zhibaozhai is actually a matter of vindictiveness sometimes. When shouting and shouting, the anger comes up. With so many people watching, if they are forced to not dare to bid again, it would be a shameful thing.

"Two thousand and one..." I remembered Bai Le's words firmly, and refused to give up. Pan Dashao added a little, and I also added a little. While adding it, I was calculating. The fortune teller has a lot of private money. Now he lives in the mountains with Aunt Cui, and usually can't spend much money. With our friendship, he will help this. Therefore, I felt more confident in my heart and made up my mind that no matter what, I had to leave this snow ginseng.

"Two thousand two!" Pan Dashao was so angry, shouting the price, but his eyes were constantly sweeping towards me. He took a few of his followers, sitting next to him, and they all glared at me.

"Two thousand... Two thousand three..." I stood for a while, only to feel that I couldn't breathe again, but at this time, I definitely can't lie down, even if I boil, I will survive. I braced myself and shook my head slightly.

"Two thousand and four!" Pan Dashao's eyes were as if he wanted to eat people, fierce and evil.

"Two..." I just wanted to yell, but when I opened my mouth, I felt out of breath, and took two steps backwards. Fortunately, Bai Le ran over from behind and helped me in time, so I didn't fall. .

After I stood firm, I clutched my chest, the breath in my throat couldn't go up or down, and I couldn't even speak.

"Brother, why don't you shout?" Bai Le didn't dare to call the shots for me, so he asked me in a whisper in his ear.

I wanted to tell him and then shout, but it was really uncomfortable, I just wanted to fall to the ground.

"That's what you can do? It's only two thousand and four hundred yuan, so I dare not shout?" Pan Dashao didn't know that my lungs had been damaged. With a high spirit, he sneered twice, and said: "You can cook as much food as there is a pot. In this kind of place, don't charge up a big belly. If you want to fight grandpa and me, you have to bring enough money first!"

"I'm here to play with you." As soon as Pan Dashao's voice landed, someone behind the crowd said: "I'm out of three thousand oceans, come, and you will add."
