――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

It was already past three o'clock when we returned to the bottom of the mountain, and since everyone had eaten some bread and jerky on the mountain, they were not in a hurry to eat.

The most important thing is that Wei Xiong is worried about long nights and dreams.

immediately went to Huangqi Village where they lived with Tong Fu.

The Manchu village was obviously not very economical and looked dilapidated, but the villagers were in good spirits.

This may have something to do with the folk customs of the place.

Under the leadership of Tong Fu, Wei Xiong and his entourage walked straight towards Tong Jinmu's house, and the villagers they met along the way all looked at them with curious eyes.

A poor mountain village like Huangqi Village,

It's rare for an outsider to come on weekdays, let alone come here at one time so many people who know it's not simple, so the news spread quickly.

After walking for a few minutes, the group came to the outside of an adobe house.

Tong Fu pushed open the door of the courtyard and walked in, and everyone followed in, only to see a middle-aged man busy in the courtyard.

But some of the marinated meat was spread on a stone slab one by one.

I don't know what kind of meat it is.

"Ah Fu, you are ...... this"

When the middle-aged man saw Tong Fu and Wei Xiong and others walking into the courtyard, he hurriedly put down his things and stood up, his expression seemed to be a little nervous.

Because Wei Xiong and the others were followed by three police officers in police uniforms.

In this day and age,

The police represent authority and the country, and the first reaction of ordinary people when they see the police is often nervous and for no reason.

"This is Secretary Yan, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee of our Antu County. ”

"This is Mr. Wei, a patriotic businessman from Hong Kong, Secretary Yan and Mr. Wei came today to talk to Uncle Mu about something, is Uncle Mu here?"

"Who's looking for me?"

At this moment, an old voice came from the room.

Then an old man with gray hair, a somewhat bowed body, and a face covered with ditches and ditches, walked out of the house with steady steps.

Tong Fu hurriedly introduced Secretary Yan and Wei Xiong again.

"It turned out to be Secretary Yan, hello, hello, please come inside. Tong Jinmu showed great enthusiasm and even respect for Secretary Yan.

To Wei Xiong,

To say that it is difficult to turn a blind eye is to turn a blind eye.

In his eyes, a businessman is just a businessman, even if he is from Hong Kong, how can he be compared with a big official like Secretary Yan.

But just because he thinks this way doesn't mean that others think the same way.

Secretary Yan knows that Wei Xiong is a character who can go straight to heaven, and I heard that when he was in Beijing, he chatted with Mr. Deng in the office several times and drank tea.

Such a figure is something that he can offend as a small county party secretary.

"Mr. Wei, please come in first. ”

"Secretary Yan is polite. Wei Xiong smiled slightly.

Seeing this, Tong Jinmu knew that this businessman from Hong Kong was probably not an ordinary businessman, so Secretary Lian Yan seemed to have to be careful to accompany him.

"Two inside, please, inside, please. ”

Enter the house.

Wei Xiong and Secretary Yan sat down on the low stool that Tong Jinmu had brought over, and when they saw that Tong Jinmu seemed to want to pour water, Secretary Yan opened his mouth to stop him:

"Don't be busy. ”

"That's right, we came here today because we heard that you have a thousand-year-old ginseng here, and this Mr. Wei's father is a Chinese medicine practitioner. ”

"I need vintage ginseng, so I hope you can sell it to him. ”

Tong Jinmu, who was originally accompanying the smiling face, heard this, his face changed immediately, and then he looked at Tong Fu who was embarrassed on the side, and he didn't know what was going on.

"This ......"

"I know what you're worried about, those are all old calendars, and now the country is concerned about economic construction, and the government will not pursue it. ”

"That's fine. ”

Tong Jinmu suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

Just now he saw a lot of people coming to the yard, including three policemen, and his first reaction was that these people were here to arrest him.

Ever since the news of the ancestral thousand-year-old ginseng in the family spread,

He was just worried about the day.

As a result, these people did come because of the ancestral thousand-year-old ginseng, but they didn't come to catch people, but to buy ginseng.

It stands to reason that he should have hurriedly agreed.

But he hesitated.

In the past, he was worried that the government would settle old accounts, so he was worried, but now that the secretary of the county party committee has personally said that those are old yellow calendars, he naturally doesn't have to worry anymore.

In this case, some old ideas have come back to the ground.

That thousand-year-old ginseng was handed down from our ancestors.

How can you say that you will buy it.

Wei Xiong saw Tong Jinmu's hesitation, so he said: "My father really needs this ginseng, and I hope that Uncle Mu can cut his love." ”

"I paid 200,000 yuan to buy it. ”

200,000!

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the house, except for Ouyang Yalan and other people from Hong Kong, opened their eyes wide, knowing that this was 100,000.

Today, the market price of a century-old ginseng plant is only one or two thousand yuan at most.

Millennial ginseng is rare in the world.

But at most, it was only forty or fifty thousand, and Wei Xiong actually bid 200,000 at once, which far exceeded the market price of thousand-year-old ginseng, which can be called a sky-high price.

Of course, a thousand-year-old ginseng may not be able to produce a single strain in a few decades.

How much is he really worth?

It is completely the opinion of the benevolent, and the wisdom of the wise. The so-called market price can only be used as a reference at best, not the price standard of the ginseng industry.

"Does Mr. Wei really plan to spend 200,000 yuan to buy it?"

Before Tong Jinmu could speak, his son, the middle-aged man in the courtyard just now, spoke first, with a look of surprise on his face.

"Our boss doesn't bother to ask about hundreds of millions of acquisitions, what is 200,000. ”

Ouyang Yaqing said disdainfully.

"That's that, that's. ”

As if he was stunned by Ouyang Yaqing, the middle-aged man laughed twice. However, the corner of his eye glanced at Sister Ouyang Yaqing from time to time.

He lived in a ravine all his life.

The farthest place I've been to is the county seat of Antu County.

When have I ever seen such a beautiful woman, thousands of times better than his mother-in-law, and what is even more rare is that they are twins.

When he was in the courtyard just now, his eyes were straight.

"Amma, since Mr. Wei needs it so much, why don't you sell it to him, anyway, it's useless to keep that ginseng at home, and you have to guard against thieves. ”

"Hmph. ”

Tong Jinmu glared at his son fiercely.

If he hadn't been drunk and lost his words, how could the news of the thousand-year-old ginseng get out? But to be honest, Wei Xiong's bid really made him moved.

You know, it's only the late eighties.

As long as he sells the ginseng, he can become one of the richest people in the entire Huangqi Village, and even in the entire Antu County, such a temptation is too great.

"Yes, Uncle Tong. ”

"Mr. Wai is a patriotic businessman in Hong Kong who has made great contributions to the country. And we are all Chinese, so naturally we can't care too much about personal gains and losses. ”

Secretary Yan said again.

"Okay. ”

After pondering for a moment, Tong Jinmu finally nodded. Then he got up and went into a room, and soon after, came out with a box.

It was a brown wooden box, more than half a meter long, and it seemed to be quite heavy, and it was many years old.

Tong Jinmu opened the wooden box,

There was even a jade box inside.

He carefully took out the jade box and put it on the table, then opened it, and suddenly a faint and very good smell of medicinal fragrance quickly spread in the room.

Everyone only felt a shock in their spirits.

This alone shows the extraordinaryness of this thousand-year-old ginseng.

"Hey, this isn't your average ginseng. Wei Xiong kept his eyes on the jade box, and when the jade box was opened, he immediately saw what was inside.

I saw a complete ginseng plant lying quietly in the jade box.

The body of this ginseng plant is not large, only about 10 centimeters, but the roots underneath are extremely developed, dense, and very visually beautiful.

The main thing is that this ginseng is not beige or yellowish.

Instead, the whole body is bright red, and the red is bewitching. Notice that there seems to be a layer of fluorescence flowing on the surface, which is incredible.

Wei Xiong was shocked at once, and then ecstasy.

Because he had seen the same ginseng once before, it was the blood ginseng that was collected by Wei Hongdao as a treasure and inherited by the Wei family for a hundred years.

However, in terms of quality, this strain is clearly on the next level.

After all, the Wei family's strain is only 500 years old, and this strain is said to be 1,000 years old.

You must know that he was able to break through to the second layer of the 'Qi Refining and Transformation God' realm at this age, completely relying on the Wei family's 500-year-old blood ginseng.

Now he unexpectedly encountered a more rebellious plant,

It was a thrill that only he could experience.

"That's right, this thousand-year-old ginseng is not an ordinary ginseng, but a variant of ginseng: blood ginseng, which is an extremely precious ginseng. ”

"Not to mention the previous vintage, even ordinary blood ginseng is very rare. ”

"Legend has it that blood ginseng is formed when a spiritual beast dies and the blood flows to the newly sprouted ginseng, which then absorbs the essence of day and night. ”

"It has the effects of aphrodisiac, prolonging life, improving physical fitness, and even reviving the dead. ”

Of course, these are just legends. ”

However, it is certain that his efficacy far exceeds that of ordinary ginseng, so Mr. Wei spent 200,000 yuan to buy this thousand-year-old blood ginseng, which is not too much of a loss. ”

No loss, no loss.

Wei Xiong was already so happy in his heart that he really came to Changbai Mountain this time.

"According to my Amma, that is, my father, this blood ginseng was accidentally dug up in the field by my Taizu during a march with Nurhachi. ”

"It's been around for more than 300 years. ”

Looking at Tong Jinmu, who looked quite emotional, Wei Xiong said to Wu Wenzheng:

"Wenzheng, you will immediately take Qingqing back to the county to get 200,000 cash. ”

"200,000 is not a small amount, I'm afraid the county bank doesn't have so much cash for a while, or Uncle Mu will go back to the county with us. ”

"Direct to bank transfer. ”

Secretary Yan opened his mouth to propose.

Wei Xiong thought about it for a while, and turned his head to look at Tong Jinmu.

"No problem, I'll go get the household registration book. After speaking, Tong Jinmu walked back to the room, which seemed to be in a good mood.

Come to think of it, that's 200,000.

Tong Fu, who had been standing aside, was hot-eyed.

Wei Xiong re-closed the jade box, and then carefully put it back into the wooden box, and as soon as he turned around, he saw Tong Fu's envious expression.

After a little groaning, he said with a smile:

"Uncle Tong, I still want more ginseng than a hundred years old, please help me ask in your village and nearby villages today and tomorrow. ”

"For each plant, I'll give you a 10% of the hard work. ”

"I'm going to inquire. ”

When Tong Fu heard this, he was immediately overjoyed, and ran out after leaving a word.

……

Back to the guest house.

Wei Xiong opened the jade box, looked at the thousand-year-old blood ginseng and looked at it, the more he looked at it, the more he liked it, the more he looked at it, the more excited he became, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt that he had come to Changbai Mountain this time.

In his current status,

There are very few things that can make him lose his temper anymore.

As Tong Jinmu said, the value of thousand-year-old blood ginseng far exceeds that of thousand-year-old ginseng, and he spent 200,000 yuan to buy this thousand-year-old blood ginseng, which is not a loss at all.

After a while, a question suddenly occurred to him.

That time, when he took the blood ginseng at home, he heard Wei Hongdao say that the medicinal properties of blood ginseng were very different from ginseng.

In other words, this thousand-year-old blood ginseng cannot be used as the main medicine of Dahuandan.

But in the pill left by the old Taoist priest, there is no pill with blood ginseng as the main medicine, can it only be boiled directly into a decoction like last time?

Wouldn't that be too wasteful?

After thinking about it for a while, he put the question behind him.

When things are at the worst they will mend.

What's more, this thousand-year-old blood ginseng is an unexpected harvest, even if it is directly boiled into a decoction and taken as a medicine?

Because I'm in a good mood,

Even in bed, she was a lot more excited, and the Ouyang Yalan sisters took turns to fight, and they were tossed by him until the sky was bright before they fell into a deep sleep of exhaustion.

As a result, I couldn't get up the next day.

Wei Xiong can only go out and play on his own.

On this day, Wei Xiong did not go to Changbai Mountain again, but visited some scenic spots in Antu County accompanied by Vice Governor Li, Director Wang and Secretary Yan.

In fact, it cannot be said to be an attraction.

It includes a cemetery for soldiers to resist US aggression and aid Korea and a middle school.

This was his first visit to a school in the Mainland.

To be honest, he was quite touched, with leaky classrooms, dilapidated desks and painted blackboards, this is still the largest middle school in Antu County.

In contrast, the learning environment for Hong Kong children is simply too good.

After the visit,

He immediately donated 1 million yuan to improve the teaching environment of the school.

The 1 million was donated directly to the school, and he did not ask for supervision of the use of the donation, which was not too much money anyway.

He didn't want to act too calculating.

And who made him just in time for a good mood.

In addition to Antu No. 1 Middle School, he also donated 200,000 yuan to the Antu County Martyrs' Cemetery to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea for the repair of the cemetery and daily maintenance.

More than 500 martyrs who died on the battlefields of Korea are laid to rest in this cemetery.

They are not necessarily all from Jilin Province.

Instead, they came from all over the country, all died on the battlefield, and were later buried by the government, so there are many similar cemeteries in Jilin Province.

But it's the same as the situation at Antu No. 1 Middle School.

The government has no money.

So much so that most of these cemeteries are in disrepair, and the tombstones of some tombs have even fallen down, feeling particularly desolate, not only does the cemetery look desolate,

Those who saw it also felt desolate in their hearts.

At that time, he actually wanted to donate more and renovate all the martyrs' cemeteries in the country, but after thinking about it, he still forgot it.

Sometimes it's not just about money.

If the government doesn't pay attention to it, no matter how well he repairs it, ten or twenty years later, the cemetery will still become dilapidated.

He can't do it all over again when the time comes.

……

According to the plan, Wei Xiong will stay in Antu County for three days, and early on the morning of the third day, Tong Fu came to the guest house, and also brought two golden eagle chicks.

It is worth mentioning that the two young birds were each kept in a cage.

Looking at the appearance of the cage, it should be freshly made.

After leaving a bodyguard to take care of the two young birds, Wei Xiong followed Tong Fu to Huangqi Village again, and this time Secretary Yan did not accompany him again.

After all, people also have their own official affairs to deal with, and they can't accompany him every day.

And Vice Governor Li also went back to the provincial capital yesterday in advance.

He was accompanied by Director Wang and several police officers sent by Secretary Yan of the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office, who originally wanted Director Wang to rest in the guest house.

But the other party is too conscientious, and he can't help it.

When I came to Huangqi Tong Jinmu's house, there were already a lot of people gathered in the courtyard and outside the courtyard, and looking at that scene, it was estimated that at least half of the people in the village came.

Wei Xiong swept it.

I found that some of them were holding wooden boxes in their hands, and my heart was suddenly happy.

According to Tong Fu, most of these villagers are from Huangqi Village, but most of the people holding wooden boxes came from other villages.

In the past day,

Tong Fu rode his own broken bicycle for the hard work that Wei Xiong promised, and ran almost all the nearby villages.

In Tong Jinmu's house.

There are ginseng who come to line up outside the house, enter the house one by one for acceptance, and if the acceptance is passed, Wei Xiong will buy it at a price much higher than the market.

The exact price depends on the situation.

The appraiser is Tong Fu.

Wei Xiong believed that if Tong Fu still wanted to live a good life, he would not dare to fool him.

When I came in just now,

Wei Xiong saw that there were one or twenty people holding wooden boxes, and thought that the wooden boxes were full of ginseng that was more than 100 years old, but in fact this was not the case.

After a careful appraisal by Tong Fu.

Weixiong harvested 1 ginseng plant of 500 years old, 3 plants of 200 to 300 years old, and 5 plants of 100 years old, for a total of 9 ginseng plants of more than 100 years old.

The others are seventy or eighty years old.

Although it seems that there is only a difference of twenty or thirty years.

However, the requirements for the formula of alchemy are very high, and the year is insufficient, and the final result can only be to refine the waste pill, so Wei Xiong refused to refuse.

However, Wei Xiong is already quite satisfied with such a harvest.

"Thank you for your hard work, Uncle Tong, this is the hard money I promised you. When the crowd dispersed, Wei Xiong handed Tong Fu an envelope.

"Thank you, Mr. Wei. ”

Tong Fu took the envelope and didn't open it.

In his opinion, a tycoon like Wei Xiong is not going to do anything with this little money.

"I should thank you, if it weren't for your help, I would have wanted to buy so many ginseng for more than 100 years, I don't know how much effort it would take. ”

Mr. Wei was polite. ”

"These nine strains of ginseng have survived for almost the past few decades in several nearby villages. Generally, many people are reluctant to sell ginseng that has been dug up for 100 years. ”

"Don't look at Changbai Mountain as big, there seems to be a lot of ginseng. ”

"But in fact, there are very few of the last year, and those that are more than 100 years old are even rarer, like this 500-year-old strain, I am afraid it will be difficult to produce another strain in a few decades. ”

"So generally the hundred-year-old ones will be left as heirlooms. ”

"This time, I heard that Mr. Wei bought it at a high price, and the villagers were so enthusiastic. ”
