Early the next morning, Lu Baobao didn't greet Jiang Bo, and left with his suitcase.

Jiang Bo booked a ticket at 10:25 a.m., drove to the airport, took an Airbus A320 mid-size plane of China Eastern Airlines, and headed all the way east.

The plane sailed for more than two hours, and crossed a distance of more than 1,000 kilometers, and it has to be said that in terms of similar means of transportation, human beings have indeed done an amazing job, and a thousand miles in ancient times can be easily achieved at the moment.

At 12:45 p.m., Airbus A320 successfully landed at Shuofang Airport.

The airport is not in the center of Sioux City, but it is not far from Sioux City.

More than half an hour later, Jiang Bo took a taxi and arrived at the ginseng trading market in Suzhou City.

According to Zhang Kaiyuan's introduction, this selection and auction will be held in the ginseng trading market in Su City, but Zhang Kaiyuan did not tell Jiang Bo the specific address.

Come to think of it, it must be easy to find, or maybe he forgot.

After some inquiry, Jiang Bo took a suitcase and finally found the location of the event of joining the king.

It is worth mentioning that this selection and auction will be held on the afternoon of June 28, and there are still two or three days to go.

However, if you want to participate in the auction, Jiang Bo must come here in advance to submit the intention of the auction and make some preparations, otherwise it will be too late to come until the day of the auction, and there will be many troublesome procedures.

After explaining his intentions, a security guard at the door led Jiang Bo to the front desk, and then said to the reception girl at the front desk, and then turned around and returned to his post.

The girl at the front desk glanced at Jiang Bo and smiled, "Sir, how can I help you?"

Jiang Bodao: "I was recommended by a friend to participate in this king event. ”

The girl at the front desk apologized: "I'm sorry sir, our event has a registration period, and the registration for the selection of the king has been closed as early as two days ago, so I'm sorry to let you run for nothing." ”

As one of the top ten Chinese herbal medicine markets in the country, the ginseng trading market in Suzhou City held the ginseng king meeting, which must be a grand event in the medicinal materials industry.

Such activities naturally have to be formulated accordingly, otherwise where will the forced rules come from?

Jiang Bo also understood this, he smiled, took out his recommendation letter and said, "I have a recommendation letter." ”

The girl at the front desk was stunned, took the letter of recommendation, hesitated and said, "This, I'm just a receptionist at the front desk, I can't be the master, so let's go and help you ask?"

"That's trouble. Jiang Bo nodded and smiled slightly.

"No trouble, no trouble, you wait a minute. ”

The girl at the front desk was hit by Jiang Bo's charming smile, and after replying with a red face, she quickly rushed in the corridor with her high heels.

......

On the third floor, there is an office with a few antique ornaments and a rather quaint decoration style, and the atmosphere is not very relaxed.

Two people were talking in the office, an old man in his sixtieth year sitting behind his desk reading a paperwork, and a young man under thirty years of age standing with his head bowed to the side.

"Is that all?" said the old man, looking up at the young man after reading the document.

The young man hurriedly replied: "Yes, President, these are the profiles of all the ginseng that came to the King Membership this time." ”

The old man was none other than Lin Tingsheng, the president of the Southern Jiangsu Ginseng Association, and the young man was his assistant.

Lin Tingsheng threw away the documents in his hand, got up and paced in the room with a frown, and sighed: "This selection activity is getting worse and worse, one session is not as good as one session." ”

The young assistant hurriedly said: "President, you can't say that, it's not that we're getting worse and worse, it's getting harder and harder, in fact, we've done a good job, at least among the people who came to participate in the event this time, there are still people who came with a hundred years of wild ginseng, you don't have to be so pessimistic, the previous sessions are not as good as this time." ”

Lin Tingsheng shook his head and said: "A hundred years of wild ginseng, if it was placed in the previous sessions, it would be really good, but this session is different." ”

"It's different, what's wrong?"

Lin Tingsheng stood in front of the window, looked out the window and said melancholy: "The auction of the king of ginseng over there in Qinghe will be held two days after our event.

I got the news that this Qinghe ginseng king auction will have 300 years of wild ginseng from Changbai Mountain on display.

At that time, will there be any comparison between our selection of kings and them?"

is also the top senwang meeting in the country, Su City and Qinghe have always been fighting openly and secretly, fighting each other.

It's not just a matter of winning or losing, it's also about reviews and market impressions. Whoever has the better goods will be qualified to guide the price trend of ginseng, attracting countless buyers and sellers from all over the country, injecting great vitality into the local market.

"This, the auction on the Qinghe side, isn't it going to wait until mid-September, and now it's less than July, why are they in advance?" the young assistant was dissatisfied.

Lin Tingsheng said: "What intentions, everyone knows in their hearts, they are in competition with each other, and they can't blame others." ”

The young assistant was a little anxious: "If this is the case, the time interval is too short, and we are inferior to them in terms of the quality of the king, if we are secretly guided to compare, I am afraid that we will become a joke in the eyes of those who don't know the truth......

"Alas......" Lin Tingsheng sighed.

The young assistant said: "President, what should we do now? Otherwise, I will ask and see if I can find a higher vintage wild ginseng, if we can find a three-hundred-year-old one, then we may not lose this year's confrontation." ”

Lin Tingsheng turned to look at the assistant and said with a wry smile: "You have a heart, but don't bother, after entering the modern society, the wild ginseng that should be excavated has been excavated, and it is difficult to see even a hundred years of wild ginseng all year round, let alone three hundred years?"

Even the 300-year-old wild ginseng in Qinghe this time was also a collection from three years ago, and now it is almost impossible to find the newly unearthed 300-year-old wild ginseng.

So, so be it, it's coming, and we can't hide from it, just let it be. ”

"But......" The young assistant looked a little unwilling.

Knock knock.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in, what's the matter?" The door of the office was not closed, and Lin Tingsheng raised his eyes and saw someone coming, a little girl from the front desk, holding a letter in her hand.

The girl at the front desk stepped into the office, came to the front, and said, "President, Assistant Lan, there was a person outside just now, saying that he wanted to sign up for our event......

The young assistant frowned and said, "Didn't I tell you that when you encounter this kind of thing, you should deal with it coldly and let him leave by himself?"

Don't you see that we are in a bad mood, and at this time to talk about such a meaningless little thing, aren't you afraid of being expelled?

I don't have any eyesight.

The girl at the front desk hurriedly continued: "I know, but this person has a letter of recommendation in his hand, and I'm afraid that he will have a background and not be offended, so I don't dare to deal with it indiscriminately." ”

As she spoke, the girl at the front desk didn't look at the young assistant, but handed over the envelope in her hand and looked at Lin Tingsheng nervously.
