Chapter 110: Grinding the Iron Pestle into a Needle?
In the evening, Li Dong returned to the county seat from the resort hotel, and he went to discuss something with Lao Lu, preparing to take out a village land to raise seedlings of Chinese medicinal materials in greenhouses.
In the past, the seedlings of Chinese medicinal materials were purchased from the province, but with the expansion of the planting base of medicinal materials, in order to get rid of external influences, it is imperative to raise seedlings, and the medicinal materials company has also developed from the simplest medicinal materials planting to the high-level development of medicinal materials cultivation and scientific research.
Lao Lu is ready to go back to the provincial capital in the past few days to see if he can reach a cooperation with the Provincial Institute of Chinese Medicinal Materials, not only to set up the seedling base in Dongshan, but also to send some more scientific researchers.
With Li Dong's current strength and the current situation of the medicinal material company, let alone digging up a few people, even if the entire research institute is dug up, there is no problem.
"Dad, Mom, I'll ...... Here it comes. Li Dong was about to enter the house, and as soon as he was halfway through his words, he saw an additional signboard opposite Jishitang, which read: Specializing in all kinds of precious medicinal materials.
I thought to myself, Zheng Fatzi doesn't sell pork, when did he change to selling medicinal herbs?
Or precious medicinal herbs?
Does the other party have that channel?
Since there is a medicinal material base, nine out of ten people in the entire Dongshan now say that they are in the medicinal materials business, as for whether it is true or not, no one knows, anyway, no matter who it is, they all say that they can get medicinal materials, and no matter what kind of medicinal materials, how much they want, no problem, that tone is bigger than him, the owner of the medicinal material base.
Li Dong walked over curiously, stood outside the door and shouted inside, "Lao Zheng, when did you stop selling pork and sell medicinal herbs instead?"
Jishitang itself is mainly based on catching medicines, so selling Chinese medicinal materials on the opposite side does not have much impact on him, Li Dong is just curious.
Zheng Fatzi was eating in the back room, and after hearing Li Dong's shout, he immediately walked out of it, "Haha, it's Dongzi, I haven't changed my career, I'm still selling pork." ”
"And what's going on with this sign?" Li Dong pointed to the front of the door.
"That's right, someone wants to rent a piece of land from me, as long as he can put down the signboard, and I thought that I wouldn't delay my business anyway, so I rented him a piece of land. Zheng Fatzi looked out as he spoke, muttering inside, "Strange, I was still here just now, and now what about the people? Hey, here and now." Zheng Fatzi pointed in the direction of the street entrance.
Li Dong turned his head to look, his eyes swept through the crowd, and when he saw Ma Le running over happily, his brows immediately furrowed.
"Don't tell him. Li Dong pointed to Ma Le, who was approaching.
"Hehe, it's him, do you know?" asked Zheng Fatzi curiously.
As soon as the words fell, Ma Le ran over, he went to the bun shop to buy buns just now, but he didn't expect to see the master as soon as he came back.
"Master, you're back. Ma Le said with a smile, and then handed over the bun he was carrying, "Master, have you eaten?" ”
"Master?" Zheng Fatzi looked at Li Dong and Ma Le strangely, he had never heard of Dongzi accepting apprentices, why did an apprentice pop up today?
"Master, who do you call Master?" Li Dong said lightly, "As far as I know, you didn't pass the test, and you squatted in the Public Security Bureau all night, I remember that I told you before the test, if you regret it, don't blame me for being unkind." ”
Want to go back? Isn't that a challenge to his prestige?
"Ahem, teacher, Master Li, I know that I didn't pass the test, so I didn't worship you as a teacher, I call you Master, it's an honorific title, just like in the movie Ip Man, when others talk about Ip Man, they have to call Master Ye with honorific titles, which is a truth. Ma Le hurriedly defended himself, for fear that he would be beaten by the other party again, and the taste of comminuted fractures of his whole body would be uncomfortable.
"That's a good name. Zheng Fatzi on the side said with a smile, "There is a connotation." ”
Li Dong glanced at the other party, and motioned to the other party to hurry back to eat, don't mix blindly here, Zheng Fatzi understood Li Dong's meaning for the first time, so he scratched his head and walked back embarrassed.
"What kind of plane are you doing?" Li Dong pointed to the signboard.
"Oh, that's right. Ma Le said seriously, "In the past few days since I came to Dongshan, I feel that the medicinal material market here has great potential, so I am ready to come here to do the medicinal material business." ”
"What, you're going to do a medicinal herb business here?" Li Dong frowned, seriously doubting the other party's true purpose.
Although he didn't know what the other party was doing when he was in the capital, judging from the fact that the other party could stay in Dongshan for so many days, he must be a second ancestor who had nothing to do, if he had a job in the Eight Classics, could he come here to apprentice to him?
"Yes, Master Li, we will be together in the future, please give me a lot of advice. Ma Le grabbed Li Dong's hand tightly, "Of course, if you need any medicine and can't buy it for the time being, you can find me, I promise to get it for you, and the price is fair. ”
Li Dong looked at Ma Le, and gradually understood what the other party meant, this is to get close to him through business.
"Ma Le, don't bother. Li Dong sighed and said, "I gave you a chance, but you didn't pass the test, so, no matter what happens in the future, I won't accept you as an apprentice, even if you find a thousand-year-old ginseng for me, it's the same result, so, hurry back to the capital, don't waste time here." ”
Ma Le was stunned, he didn't expect the master to gain insight into his mind so quickly, the master is the master, and nothing can be hidden from him.
However, if he really gave up, he wouldn't be him.
"Master Li, I really want to do a medicinal herb business here, and I don't mean anything else. Ma Le said with a smile.
"Oh, really?" Li Dong looked at Ma Le and said, "Then you remember what you just said, if you look for me to apprentice in the future, you will go out directly and be hit by a car, and my brother is not good." ”
Ma Le has his legs between his crotch, don't be so vicious, right? Does he want to apprentice, what does it have to do with his younger brother? You must know that in the Ma family's generation, he is the only man, and the whole family still points to him to carry on the lineage.
Seeing Ma Le's embarrassed expression, Li Dong snorted at the other party, turned around and walked into Jishitang.
Seeing the master's back, Ma Le couldn't wait to slap himself, how could he talk to death while chatting? This was completely different from what he expected, and he was ready to take this opportunity to get close to him.
When I think I was in the capital, I could be regarded as able to speak, why was my mouth not good in front of the master?
Ma Le turned his head to look at the sign standing on the ground, which he had spent an afternoon looking for someone to make, and now it seemed that it had been made for nothing.
No, you can't just give up.
Ma Le looked at Jishitang opposite, as long as the kung fu is deep and the iron pestle is sharpened into a needle, he will definitely be able to do it.
