Chapter 46 False Ginseng
A yellow-white cylinder, about the thickness of a baby's arm, more than a foot long, four index finger-thick tendrils are entangled like human limbs, two of them are intact, the left one is shriveled and dull, the other is pinched, and a layer of thick white liquid condenses at the fracture, exuding a fresh fragrance, which makes people feel refreshed when they smell it.
The smell of medicine is fragrant, and the smell is intoxicating.
At this moment, even ordinary people like Aunt Basket who have never seen ginseng can guess that this is a treasure, otherwise how can it be comfortable to smell a mouthful of medicinal fragrance?
Hundred-year-old ginseng is a rare treasure, even a long-standing store like a hundred herb shops can't ask for it, even if the hundred-year-old ginseng in the hands of a middle-aged man is lost in medicinal properties, Xia Xiaoyun is still willing to open a sky-high price of one million, intending to pocket it as the foundation of the pharmacy.
For such a rare treasure that has been rare for decades, no one thinks that it can appear twice in one day, and no one is optimistic about Yun Shan and Wang Yaoshi's bet, thinking that he is retreating from himself.
However, who would have thought that Yunshan had such a treasure as the Heaven and Earth Wanhua Furnace, which could give birth to a century-old ginseng almost at any time?
Therefore, what everyone thought was impossible to happen, at this moment, it happened in the hands of Yun Shan.
For a moment, the scene was silent, and even the sound of the tip of the needle falling on the ground was clearly audible.
Yun Shan coughed lightly and said coldly to Pharmacist Wang: "What's the matter, I've already taken out the hundred-year-old ginseng, do I need to check it?" ”
The moment Wang Yaoshi smelled the medicinal fragrance, he had already concluded that Yunshan took out the real hundred-year-old ginseng, and it had just been unearthed, because when he was still an apprentice a few decades ago, he had followed the master to encounter the hundred-year-old ginseng that had just been dug up in Changbai Mountain.
Even so, Pharmacist Wang was still unwilling to admit defeat like this, and said forcefully: "Yes, of course it needs to be checked, otherwise what if you just use a tree root to fool around!" ”
"How can it be a tree root, this ginseng smells so good, I feel that I didn't sleep well yesterday and feel refreshed at once, compared to the century-old ginseng you had before didn't taste at all and really looks like a tree root!" Xiaofang, a chubby girl, interjected.
"That's right, that's right, even people like me who don't understand medicinal materials can see that this ginseng is a treasure, if your previous withered thing is a hundred-year-old ginseng, I think Brother Yun's ginseng is at least a thousand-year-old ginseng that can come back to life!" A guest with a Sichuan accent couldn't help but say.
The people around were all talking, and almost everyone agreed with the Sichuan man's statement and felt that the ginseng taken out by Yunshan was a treasure.
Seeing this, Pharmacist Wang's face became a little gloomy again, and he said coldly, "What do you know? The medicinal properties of ginseng need to be tested, don't look at you smelling the incense, maybe he put the essence in it! ”
"Are you stupid to us, can't you still ask the taste of the essence? Why don't you say there's chicken essence in it! "Aunt Vegetable Basket took out a pack of Totole Chicken Essence from her own vegetable basket and almost fell on Pharmacist Wang's face. The others burst out laughing, and pointed at Pharmacist Wang and spoke ugly, which was simply insulting everyone's IQ.
"Anyway, it's going to be tested anyway!" Pharmacist Wang could only grit his teeth at this time and be cheeky and strong, otherwise he would really make him kowtow to Yunshan in front of everyone and apologize, what face would he have to sit in the Hundred Herb Shop?
Yun Shan didn't refute, but instead cast his eyes on Xia Xiaoyun's face, looking at the other party's slightly pale and sad face, his heart moved slightly, and said with a smile: "Just now you verified that this Northeast brother's ginseng didn't say that it was going to be tested, why did I have to test it here?" Is it possible to have different standards for different people? ”
Xia Xiaoyun frowned slightly, and heard Yunshan's voice. How smart her mind is, just now it was just because of the recent internal affairs of the group that made her dizzy and suddenly heard that there was a hundred years of ginseng, and she was carried away by joy for a while, and at this time she calmed down, and immediately found many suspicious points.
Xia Xiaoyun's thoughts flowed in her heart, why did someone come to the door with a hundred years of ginseng as soon as she returned to the herb shop? Even if this is a coincidence, why is Pharmacist Wang, who rarely comes to the pharmacy to sit in the hall, here today? This can also be said to be a coincidence. But as Yun Shan said, a century-old ginseng is such a precious thing, why did Pharmacist Wang hastily identify it as genuine? Even if Pharmacist Wang is confident in his ability to identify medicinal materials, in the face of such precious medicinal materials, he should also be aware of the rules of the pharmacy for the sake of prudence, and multiple appraisals are required to be purchased, is this also forgotten?
Don't? Xia Xiaoyun's eyebrows ached slightly, and her mood suddenly became heavy, if it was really someone within the group who did not hesitate to damage the interests of the company to suppress himself for that position, it would be really sad.
However, regardless of whether his guess is correct or not, Xia Xiaoyun knows that the most important thing is to solve the current problem. She took a deep breath, regained her composure, looked at Pharmacist Wang, and asked calmly, "Elder Wang, is this ginseng really a hundred-year-old ginseng Mr. Yun?" ”
Yun Shan saw that Pharmacist Wang's face was hesitant and wanted to shirk it, so he immediately sneered: "If you dare to confirm that my ginseng is fake, I dare not hesitate to destroy the ginseng and verify it on the spot." ”
The people around gasped, this is a hundred-year-old ginseng, a treasure worth millions, Yunshan was willing to destroy it in order to take a breath.
This time, even Xia Xiaoyun couldn't help but glance at Yun Shan a few times, although she also guessed that Yun Shan's ginseng was genuine, but she never expected that Yun Shan would have the courage to say such things.
Pharmacist Wang took a deep breath, slightly controlled his almost distorted face, and said in a hoarse voice: "Yes, this ginseng is indeed a genuine century-old ginseng, but this does not mean that the ginseng I identified earlier is fake, unless you can come up with evidence to prove that the previous ginseng is fake, I will not apologize!" ”
"Cut, the two ginseng plants are put together, and the difference is worlds apart, and anyone with a discerning eye can see it. If your ginseng is a hundred-year-old ginseng, I think Mr. Yun's ginseng is a thousand-year-old ginseng that can live and die with flesh and bones! Xiaofang, a chubby girl, said disdainfully.
"That's because of the loss of the medicinal properties of that ginseng plant!" Pharmacist Wang stiffened his neck, staring coldly at the shopping guide in front of him who had opposed him three times and twice, and was secretly ruthless in his heart, and he must teach the other party a hard lesson later.
Yun Shan saw that the other party was still dead, and he was also angry, and sneered: "You want to prove it? It's simple, I'll give it to you! ”
Then, with a lightning effort, he reached out and grabbed the century-old ginseng in the arms of the Northeast man.
"What are you doing? Robbery, ginseng robbery! The Northeast man was slightly stunned, and then shouted loudly.
Xia Xiaoyun suddenly remembered something, and exclaimed, "Don't ......"
The easiest way to identify the authenticity of ginseng is to look at the quality of the flesh, but how precious is the century-old ginseng, destroying a little epidermal medicinal properties may lose the essence, who is willing to break the skin and take the meat? Although Xia Xiaoyun also vaguely guessed that the middle-aged man's ginseng was fake, he never thought that Yunshan would have such a violent personality, wasn't he afraid that he would guess wrong?
It's a pity it's late!
In this matter, Yun Shan just unintentionally told Xiao Yan that ginseng was fake, who would have thought that Xiao Yan would not hesitate to offend Pharmacist Wang in order to protect the interests of the company and expose the truth of the matter, originally he had been staying out of the matter, who knew that Pharmacist Wang would not spare him and involve him and ask him to kowtow and apologize, which was really too deceitful.
So in a fit of rage, he took out the hundred-year-old ginseng that was ripened yesterday, who would have thought that the other party was still a dead duck with a hard mouth, and he would not admit his mistake. The reason why Yunshan identified this ginseng as fake is because he didn't feel a little aura on this ginseng at all.
Thinking of this, Yun Shan's face was fierce, he grabbed the yellowed hundred-year-old ginseng and folded it fiercely.
Click!
There was a clear sound.
The hundred-year-old ginseng brought by the middle-aged man broke from it.
"My darling!" The middle-aged man screamed.
"See, this is your treasure, a hundred-year-old ginseng made of gum. Give it back to you! Yun Shan smiled coldly and threw the thing in his hand that was broken in two to the other party.
I saw that the broken hundred-year-old ginseng revealed the material inside, which was actually filled with white paste-like resin.
There was an uproar all around.
