"Zhou Lei! How could the ginseng that Xiao Zhang specially brought to your Uncle Bai from the Northeast be soaked in sulfur, don't talk nonsense. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info" Section Chief Zhou rebuked angrily.

"I'm not targeting him, I'm just worried about Uncle Bai's health before I said this!" Zhou Lei muttered in a low voice.

Father Bai also hurriedly persuaded: "Yes, yes, Xiao Zhou is also kind enough to remind you, don't talk about him." ”

Section Chief Zhou glared at Zhou Lei complainingly, then looked at Zhang Chen, and said with a smile: "Xiao Zhang, don't mind, our Zhou Lei does speak more straightforwardly, so let's do it, I have a little research on ginseng, I'll help you see how the quality of the ginseng you bring is." ”

Section Chief Zhou didn't brag, he did have a little research on ginseng, because he worked in a state-owned enterprise and often had business dealings with the Northeast, so he could often receive some ginseng and deer antler velvet and other Northeast specialties.

However, Section Chief Zhou wanted to help Zhang Chen identify the quality of ginseng, apparently to help prove whether the ginseng had been soaked in sulfur, but the real purpose was actually to confirm that the gift given by Zhang Chen was not valuable.

In Section Chief Zhou's view, although Zhang Chen is eloquent, but after all, he is only a college student who has not graduated, even if the ginseng he bought has not been soaked in sulfur, I believe that the quality is only an ordinary commodity that can be bought everywhere in the Northeast, how can it be compared with Zhou Lei's Longines mechanical watch of more than 20,000 yuan.

In fact, this watch was not bought by Zhou Lei, but given to Section Chief Zhou by others, but because he received two identical watches, he took out one of them and asked Zhou Lei to give it to Bai's father as a gift, the purpose was to please the Bai family, so as to achieve the purpose of chasing Bai Sihan.

Although Section Chief Zhou felt that his son didn't need to chase after the daughters of his subordinates so quietly, it was helpless that Zhou Lei just fell in love with Bai Sihan, so Section Chief Zhou put down his face today and accompanied Zhou Lei to the Bai family, but he didn't expect to meet a competitor here.

Zhou Lei didn't particularly care if he could catch up with Bai Sihan and Section Chief Zhou, but in front of outsiders, the face of the old Zhou family must not be lost, so he tried his best to compare Zhang Chen.

Hearing that Section Chief Zhou wanted to take a look at the wild ginseng he brought, Zhang Chen smiled indifferently, and then said to Bai Sihan, "Take it", Bai Sihan immediately got up and went to get the box containing the ginseng.

Seeing Bai Sihan's obedience to Zhang Chen, Zhou Lei's eyes were about to burst into flames, thinking that he would definitely ridicule the ginseng brought by Zhang Chen in front of everyone after a while, so that he would lose face.

After a while, Bai Sihan walked out of the back room, and when he saw the box she was holding in her hand, Section Chief Zhou couldn't help frowning, this box was more than half a meter long, and he had never seen a mountain ginseng in such a big box, it seems that the mountain ginseng inside must be very old.

Bai Sihan put the box flat on the ground, and then untied the silk cloth that wrapped the box, the box inside was long, loose, as if it would fall apart if it was shaken hard, and through the transparent packaging of the box, you can see that there is a mountain ginseng tied with lush branches.

The main body of ginseng is only the size of an adult's finger, and it is a little different from the usual ginseng, and the ginseng body is irregularly shaped, twisted and crooked, as if it has been cracked.

Looking at the ginseng on the ground, Section Chief Zhou didn't speak for a long time, but Zhou Lei pointed to the box and said: "What is this, the ginseng is so small, the box is full of beards, and the ginseng I saw before is not the same at all, don't be the rhizome of any plant that pretends to be ginseng after drying." ”

"Zhou Lei!" Section Chief Zhou stopped, with a hint of dryness in his voice, which was completely different from the previous false reproach.

Zhang Chen was unimpressed by Zhou Lei's ridicule, and he asked Section Chief Zhou: "Uncle Zhou, what do you think of the quality of this mountain ginseng?" Have you ever been soaked in sulfur? ”

Section Chief Zhou lifted his glasses, swallowed his saliva and said, "It's really not easy for Xiao Zhang to get such a good quality wild ginseng." ”

"This ginseng is worth hundreds, so such a valuable thing as a gift is really heartfelt." Section Chief Zhou deliberately did not mention the value of ginseng, just wanted to skip this topic quickly, but he didn't expect Zhou Lei to still be unrelenting.

Everyone could hear that Zhou Lei's words were sarcastic, Bai Sihan was a little out of business, she was just about to speak, but Zhang Chen patted her leg to stop her, and then asked herself: "Uncle Zhou, since you have a little research on ginseng, then give this ginseng a price." ”

"This ......" If it weren't for so many people present, Section Chief Zhou really wanted to give Zhou Lei a slap, and he originally planned to avoid talking about the price of ginseng, but this stinky boy took the initiative to lead the topic to the top, but the words had already arrived here, so he had to bite the bullet and say: "I haven't seen such wild ginseng, but I have heard of it, and it is said that the price is at least 10,000 yuan......"

Hearing his father say "at least 10,000 yuan", Zhou Lei was shocked, but then he thought that the watch he brought cost more than 20,000 yuan, so he was relieved, at least he did not lose in the value of the gift, and in addition to the watch, the other gifts he brought were also expensive, so in terms of the value of the gift, he still won Zhang Chen.

But I didn't expect that Section Chief Zhou didn't finish his words, and after saying "at least 10,000 yuan", he spit out two more words: "per gram"!

"What?!"

Everyone present was stunned, every gram of 10,000 yuan, dozens of times more expensive than gold, although this mountain ginseng is not big, but there are at least dozens of grams, that is to say, this mountain ginseng is worth at least hundreds of thousands, this gift is too expensive.

Zhou Lei couldn't believe his ears, before he started drinking this wine, why did his father start talking nonsense, so he hurriedly asked: "Dad, you can't be mistaken, how can this thing be so expensive?" ”

Section Chief Zhou glared at Zhou Lei complainingly, no longer paying attention to him, but said to Zhang Chen: "You are a good thing, where did you get it, it cost a lot of money, right?" ”

Section Chief Zhou also pinned his hopes that this wild ginseng was an heirloom in Zhang Chen's family, and he didn't know the value before he took it out, maybe when he heard that this thing was worth hundreds of thousands, he would regret asking for it back, which would definitely cause the disgust of the Bai family and even Bai Sihan, but Zhang Chen's next answer made Section Chief Zhou completely give up the idea of helping his son compete.

"Oh, I got this wild ginseng from a friend, it didn't cost anything!" Zhang Chen said lightly.

Coming?! To be able to collect such a quality of century-old wild ginseng is definitely not an ordinary person, Zhang Chen can get such a valuable thing from such a person without spending a penny, which shows that he is not simple.

Zhou's father and son sighed at the same time in their hearts: This person is a big loss today! (To be continued.) )
