He Ling couldn't help it at first, and scolded: "Li Bangzi, how can you speak! Why do you say that only the Black Mountain of your Bangzi Country is qualified to hold the King Participation Competition?"

Li Zhixian said with some pride: "Because our Montenegro is the true birthplace of ginseng in the world. ”

"Fuck your shit!"

After He Ling heard Li Zhixian's words, she couldn't help but curse and said, "You dead stick, it's really shameless." Who doesn't know that our Xing'an Mountains are the birthplace of ginseng? It was recorded in the "Shennong's Classic of Materia Medica" as early as 4,000 years ago. At that time, there was no such thing as your stick country in the world!"

Li Zhixiang smiled and said: "Those documents are not all written by later generations, and some things can be made up. We can also write a document that says that ginseng was discovered in Montenegro 5,000 years ago. Isn't that the case you will admit that our Montenegro is the birthplace of ginseng!"

He Ling's face turned a little pale, and just wanted to refute, Lin Zikai next to him waved his hand at her and said, "Ah Ling, what can you be angry with people like them who talk nonsense with their eyes open?"

Like the Dragon Boat Festival, the Mid-Autumn Festival, traditional Chinese medicine, Go, etc. are all recognized by the world as traditional Chinese culture, people insist that they originated in their country, and they have also declared the world cultural heritage, what can you do?

I heard that they have recently proposed that Confucius be included in their country's historical and cultural who's who is also listed. People even want to rob other people's ancestors, what else can't be said.

Sometimes I wonder why they don't want to rob everything, why don't they say that *, brothels, and homosexuality are also invented!"

As soon as Ling Zikai finished speaking, laughter rang out all around.

"That's right, I think the people in their stick country are all *raised!"

"Since you can't look down on this competition, why are you still here to join in the fun? Go back to the country of sticks as soon as possible. ”

"Is this dead stick trying to make trouble?

"Where's the security guard! Call the security guard to come and kick him out. ”

Li Zhixian didn't expect his words to cause public anger, and when he saw the excitement of the crowd around him, he stood up from his seat one after another, and it seemed that he would rush up and beat him up at any time, and he was dumbfounded.

Translator Li turned pale with fright, and shouted to everyone: "No one is allowed to mess around." He is a foreign guest invited by the city government to participate in the contest, if something happens and causes an international dispute, which of you can afford it?"

Seeing that the situation was not good, the four bodyguards hurriedly protected Li Zhixian in the middle.

However, Li Zhixian obviously didn't want to admit defeat like this, and said loudly: "Since you refuse to admit that ginseng originated from our Black Mountain, then let me ask:

Why is it that the ginseng you have found is only 200 years old, and it is still a national treasure and placed in the Great Hall of the People.

In our Black Mountain Ginseng Museum, there is a 450-year-old ginseng. It's not the history of our ginseng cultivation, it's a little bit older than you!"

As soon as Li Zhixian's words fell, there was a burst of laughter all around.

Someone shouted, "I said sticks, do you know what ginseng is, and can your ginseng be compared to our wild ginseng?"

"That's right, you know, a two or three hundred years old wild ginseng, how many other ginseng can be bought? ”

"In the poor mountains and bad waters of your stick country, you will never want to grow wild ginseng. You guys are only worthy of artificially planting those garbage and other direct ginseng. ”

Listening to those mocking words, Li Zhixian argued: "Who said that we don't have wild ginseng there? This time, I will bring a wild ginseng to participate in the ginseng competition, and when the time comes, we will see who can win the championship of ginseng!"

Ling Zikai's heart moved when he heard this, and said secretly: Could it be that the old stick mallet said, the stick merchant who brought more than 400 years of old ginseng to participate in the competition is the kid in front of him?

"Okay! Li Zhixian, the competition is about to start, you better go back to your seat first!"

He Wandong waved his hand at Li Zhixian, signaling him to stop messing around here.

Li Zhixian wanted to say a few more words, but seeing He Wandong's impatient appearance, he had to stop, saluted him, and walked to the other end of the VIP seat with the others and sat down.

What made Ling Zikai strange was that He Qiujiang stood by Li Zhixian's side from beginning to end, without saying a word, just silently looking at Ling Zikai and the others, and didn't know what he was thinking in his heart.

At this time, more and more people entered the main venue of the competition. Seeing that all the seats were already filled, some people simply stood on the aisle.

On the VIP side, a few staff members were handing out small signs with numbers written on them to those seated.

Ling Zikai looked at the sign sent to him, with a number "67" written on it, and he didn't know what this brand was used for, he just wanted to ask the cuckoo next to him, but he Ling had already explained to himself:

"This is the bid number assigned to you. This year's contest is a little different from the previous ones, and in the selection process, if you like a ginseng, you can directly bid on it.

Of course, generally speaking, no one will be interested in those ginseng that ranks lower, most people are aiming for ginseng within the top ten, especially when the final ginseng king is released, the auction scene is very lively, everyone shouts the price, each time it is tens of thousands of tens of thousands of price increases, and the final transaction price will be dozens of times higher than the auction price or even sky-high!"

Ling Zikai's heart moved when he heard this, and asked, "Do you want to bid for the king today?"

With He Wandong's worth, it is not possible to clap King Sam's hands.

He Ling said: "My dad has this idea, but when the time comes, we have to look at the specific bidding price, if the price is a little outrageously high, it doesn't have to be auctioned."

Although the ginseng king who can win the championship must be at least 100 years old, the price at the auction market is not very cost-effective compared to the market value of ginseng itself.

You see, some of the people sitting in these VIP seats are just like us who are purely here to see the excitement;

There are also people who are owners of ginseng business, and although they will make a bid when the time comes, they will give up when the price is high to a certain level. ”

Ling Zikai nodded when he heard this, what he wanted to do business was nothing more than profit, and no one would do that loss-making business.

"Then won't this king of Sam be auctioned off at that time?"

"How could it be a missed auction? Look, do you see a few people sitting there?"

Ling Zikai looked in the direction He Ling pointed out, and there were several people sitting in the middle of the front row of the VIP seat, talking in a low voice.

"Who are they?"

"I know one of them as a collector on Hong Kong Island, who likes to collect strange things. Once, at an auction, I spent 5 million yuan to buy a Ganoderma lucidum that is said to be thousands of years old. These are the people who are the protagonists of today's auction. ”

Ling Zikai asked curiously: "I've only heard of collecting antique cultural relics and the like, but I didn't expect that there are also collections of medicinal herbs." Although wild ginseng is becoming more and more rare now, and it may appreciate in value in a year or two, these things are not easy to store at home.

"Who knows what these people think in their hearts, or they just want to hype it up and sensationalize!"

While speaking, a welcome song sounded in the venue. It should be, the opening time of the contest is approaching.

It didn't take long to see a group of people walking in through the side door, walking up to the rostrum in turn, finding their nameplates, and sitting down.

Zhang Jiefang really also participated in the opening ceremony, and sat down in the most central position, probably among all the people who attended the opening ceremony this time, his position was the highest, and after sitting down on the seat, people came up to shake hands with him from time to time and say hello.

After seeing Ling Zikai and them sitting in the VIP seat, Zhang Jiefang smiled and nodded at them.

After everyone on the rostrum was seated, the welcome song also stopped.

Immediately afterwards, the person in charge of the organizing committee of the competition walked to the podium in front of the rostrum and began to speak.
