The old man bent down and rummaged through the counter for a while, and after a while he stood up holding a wooden box a foot long with a thick layer of ash. He put the wooden box on the counter, found a cloth to wipe the dust on the wooden box, and smiled at the two people staring at the wooden box: "There are few people looking for this thing, and I haven't moved it for a long time, don't be surprised." ”

After wiping the wooden box clean, the old man opened it.

The wooden box was covered with a layer of kraft paper, and the old man uncovered the kraft paper layer by layer, revealing what was wrapped in kraft paper.

It was nearly a box of small yellow grass, each as thick as a matchstick, about twenty centimeters long, and each with seven leaves the size of a fingernail of a little finger, and on the leaves were golden spots the size of a pin's eye. At a cursory glance, there must be about 100 or so in this box.

Zheng Zheng looked at it and nodded secretly in his heart. These yellow grasses are the same as the description of the seven-leaf Venus cloud grass on the prescription, ordinary people have never heard of this at all, and there is no time to cheat, even if it is fake, he does not have a control, and he must not do exactly the same as described in the prescription.

"Two. The old man pointed to the hundred or so grasses in the box and said, "Here are a hundred seven-leaf Venus cloud grasses, which are almost my ten years of accumulation. I don't just sell, whoever wants to buy has to buy the whole box. Let's not say anything, I have a reserve price of 3 million for this box, and whoever you have the highest price will take it. ”

Listening to the old man's words, Zheng Zheng was vigorous. What is it called robbery while the fire is hot? How can it be called an old traitor and a cunning? This is called robbery while the fire is hot, and this is the old and cunning......

He understood in his heart how the old man was pondering, so he didn't speak, and secretly wondered in his heart whether it was appropriate to buy this box of seven-leaf Venus cloud grass at this price. According to the prescription, it is enough to use one or two leaves and the part of the stem connected to the leaves at a time, and this hundred roots are seven hundred leaves, which is enough for Zheng Zheng to use for a year or two.

He understood how the old man pondered, but Zheng Bei didn't understand it for a while. He hissed, glared, and asked the old man, "No...... Your price is a bit ......."

To put it mildly, Zheng Bei actually scolded in his heart: This box of seven-leaf Venus cloud grass sells for three million, isn't this poor and crazy, what is this? It is reasonable to buy this kind of extremely difficult to find thing and be slaughtered, but where is this price to be slaughtered, this is clearly to use the Qinglong Glaive Knife to split people.

The old man waved his hand with a smile and said, "Little brother, you listen to me first, and then ignore what I say." You see, there are very few people who produce this thing, and there are few people who know about it, and no one usually asks about what you are looking for, and if you come to find it, it proves that you are a person who knows the goods, right? It also proves that you want this thing to be of great use, right? You don't need this thing for ordinary things, right?"

Zheng Bei blinked, there was nothing to say.

"I don't know what you and this little brother are going to do with these things, but what you want to do must be something that other things can't do. Since you want to do big things, then you have to have the capital to do big things, right?"

Seeing that neither of them spoke, the old man smiled and said, "Say something unpleasant, I can give this thing to people who don't know how to do it, and I don't want a penny from him." Why? Because those who don't know how to do it are useless to take it, and he won't make any money. But the two of you are different, both of you are knowledgeable people, and it will be useful if you buy it, maybe it will be several times the profit when you turn your hand. There is such a saying in the trading industry, it is better not to sell than to lose money, you both understand, right?"

"You two, don't think that the price I offer is high, this thing is hard to find, and there are few people who want it, who usually does business related to this? If there is one of the two who doesn't want it, then please find another one, whether you can find it or not is a matter of two words. ”

When the old man said this, the meaning of his words was very clear, that is, since you want to eat meat, then I must drink some soup, otherwise I will not sell this thing. Zheng Zheng also had to admire when he heard it, or how to say that people are old and fine, such a meaning can be said so reasonably, ordinary people really can't come.

"Then what do you mean by not just selling?" asked Zheng Bei with some resentment.

The old man smiled, pointed at the two of them, and said, "Normally, if a single person comes to buy, I will sell it alone." But today is different, you two want both, then I will go out of all my brains, not a single one, if anyone wants to buy it, take it all. But I'm going to say this, if you two buy it, you can buy it all, and if you don't buy it, then I'll either throw it away or burn it, and I won't keep it anyway. ”

The old man patted the box, shook his head and said, "These things have been left here for ten years, and I am also bored, and I will not keep them in the future." If you don't want to buy it, then please go elsewhere, and from now on, I don't have it. It's just that the two of them are all over the world, and it will be really a chance to find this seven-leaf Venus Cloud Grass again. ”

What did the old man mean by this? He said it clearly: If you think that the price is low, you will leave, and if you want to come and buy it alone another day, it will be impossible, I would rather lose it and burn it, anyway, I will not sell it, and it is difficult to say who will sell it. If the two of you want to buy it, then obediently stick out your head and take this knife, and love to be pulled down or not.

Doing business can be so hard, and that is not something that ordinary businessmen can do.

Zheng Zheng is straight tooth flower, and Zheng Bei was also stunned on the side. He now understands that the old man is stuck in the veins of the two people, and he is not afraid that the two will not buy it. If the two of them really don't buy it, it's hard to say whether this old man will burn these seven-leaf Venus cloud grass. After all, there are few people who ask about this thing, and I don't know when I can make a move, and there is a pile of weeds in my hand, and it is really not a big loss for the old man to burn it.

Don't say that Zheng Bei is out of line, Zheng Zheng is full of wisdom and has no way at all. The only way to do this is to buy it together, with one paying half of the money and taking fifty each. But this is just an idea, and Zheng Zheng himself is unwilling. This thing is too hard to find, what should I do when I run out of fifty roots? I would like to look for them all over the world? It is better to buy them all at once, at least I can use them for a while longer, and maybe I will be able to find other news about the seven-leaf Venus cloud grass during this time.

Zheng Bei also thought of this method, but he would not consider this method. Because in Zheng Bei's opinion, Zheng Zheng is also preparing the secret medicine for restoring antiques, which is his potential competitor, it is good not to know this, after knowing this, Zheng Bei will never give Zheng Zheng one of these seven-leaf Venus cloud grass. Although this price is quite high, there is a Zheng family behind Zheng Bei, who can fully afford this figure.

Over there, Zheng Zheng pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "I can accept this price." ”

Zheng Bei glanced at Zheng Zheng in surprise, he pondered that Zheng Zheng should be empty in front of this price, because Zheng Zheng didn't have much money when he went to Huayin City, could it be that he got rich overnight? ”

After speaking, Zheng Bei glanced at Zheng Zheng with some pride, thinking that Zheng Zheng should be cowardly now, right? He went to Huayin City for half a year, and it was already an amazing achievement to be able to net three million, Zheng Bei didn't think Zheng Zheng could get more.

But Zheng Zheng only pondered for a moment, and then nodded in Zheng Bei's surprised gaze and said, "Four million." ”

This......

Zheng Bei glanced at Zheng Zheng in surprise, and he couldn't figure out Zheng Zheng's bottom in his heart. He secretly took a breath of cold air and increased the price: "Five million." ”

Zheng Zheng was silent for a while, and the old man also looked at Zheng Zheng, waiting for Zheng Zheng's bid. The more fierce the competition between these two people, the better it is for him, and he has nothing to dislike about it.

After two minutes of silence, Zheng Zheng said, "Six million." ”

The old man's face was full of joy, and it had doubled in a blink of an eye, where is this business going? He covered his heart, which was a little uncomfortable because it was beating too fast, and looked at Zheng Bei with hope.

Zheng Bei's face was also blue and white for a while, he looked at Zheng Zheng, frowned, and said, "Are you deliberately raising the bar, right? If you don't have so much money, just play as soon as possible." ”

From the bottom of his heart, he didn't think that Zheng Zheng could come up with so much money, so he had this sentence.

But Zheng Zheng's reaction was very calm. He looked at Zheng Bei and said seriously: "If you don't want it, I can transfer six million to this boss's account now, no kidding." ”

Looking at Zheng Zheng's serious expression, Zheng Bei's heart was bottomless. He gritted his teeth and pondered for a while, during which he looked at Zheng Zheng and looked at it, thought about it again and again, and finally made up his mind: "Seven million." ”

In the blink of an eye, there was another million, and the old man was all happy, and he thought in his heart that the efforts to collect these things for so many years were not in vain.

He looked at Zheng Zheng with hope, looking forward to Zheng Zheng's price increase again, sending the price all the way to eight million.

However, Zheng Zheng still disappointed the old man after being silent for three minutes, he looked at the seven-leaf Venus Cloud Pattern Grass on the counter with some reluctance, shook his head at the old man, and said, "Don't add it...... Never mind. He glanced at Zheng Bei and sighed: "Okay, this thing belongs to you." ”

Zheng Zheng is now also worth tens of millions, if he continues to increase the price, he can't add it. But there is a problem, now Zheng Zheng is already the leader of the black market, although he has a net worth of tens of millions, but there are more places to spend money in the black market, and the money for eating, drinking, and buying antiques from various channels has to come from Zheng Zheng, at least 800,000 yuan per month.

Although Zheng Zheng is the biggest beneficiary of the black market interests, it stands to reason that the black market of buying antiques once a month alone can make Zheng Zheng make a profit of more than 1.5 million, but the monthly expenses of at least 800,000 yuan are also real.
