Chapter 267: Bounty
Yang Dezhu shopped for more than two months and did not find qualified 100-year-old Ganoderma lucidum and 100-year-old ginseng. However, a bounty task posted by Osmanthus on the Internet has been rewarded. It turned out that a wealthy man in the United States once collected a Ganoderma lucidum, and it is said that the carbon 14 test is more than 170 years old. And it is said that the wealthy businessman has not had a good cash flow recently, and agreed to sell this reishi plant. But this guy has some heart-to-heart talk, and the price is 5 million US dollars, which is enough to convert into more than 15 million Huaxia coins. So for a while, there was no market.
After Yang Dezhu learned the news, he immediately rushed to the United States alone. He is now much better than the old team. So you don't have to bring them with you.
The plane landed at Los Angeles Airport. When Yang Dezhu got off the plane, Hunter, a Chinese-Chinese translator who Guihua had helped him contact, was already waiting for him outside the airport holding a huge photo of him.
Yang Dezhu didn't want to delay more, so with the help of Hunter, he casually found a hotel to settle down, and waited for the evening to meet the rich businessman of the rice country to inspect the goods first.
Let Yang Dezhu go to the mountains to find wild ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum or something, although he is not good at it. However, there are ways to distinguish the age of medicinal materials and whether the medicinal properties are sufficient.
Hunter was a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy who was sunny and handsome. However, during the conversation, Yang Dezhu found that he seemed to be more interested in osmanthus than this work. Facing this big boy who always inquires about the situation of osmanthus flowers. couldn't bear it, Yang Dezhu had no choice but to tell the truth. Said that osmanthus is his woman. And very much more than him. Tell Hunter to stop making up his mind.
Hunter looked at Yang Dezhu carefully with a look of pity. Then he asked, "Are you rich?" Yes, it must be. Otherwise, that angelic girl wouldn't like an uncle like you. Definitely not. ”
Yang Dezhu was very unimpressed by Hunter's speculation. Although his relationship with Osmanthus has nothing to do with money. But it's a fact that he's rich himself, so he doesn't want to refute it from this either. So he had no choice but to say to Hunter: "Osmanthus itself is very rich. Tens of millions. But now the money is mine. ”
Unexpectedly, Hunter became even more angry when he heard this, and said that Yang Dezhu actually ate soft rice. It's just a shame. Anyway, though. Hunter also knew. He and Osmanthus really had no hope. Because since Osmanthus can give all his money to this uncle. Seems to like him very much. So the next two people are just an employment relationship.
In order to be worthy of the high commission of $1,000 a day that Yang Dezhu gave him. Hunter is still very conscientious as a translator. Not only did he take Yang Dezhu to visit Los Angeles briefly in the afternoon. He also took Yang Dezhu to eat a few famous local delicacies.
At ten o'clock in the evening, the time that Yang Dezhu had made an appointment with the rich businessman in the United States arrived, and Hunter took Yang Dezhu to the rich businessman's villa in the suburbs.
This wealthy businessman is in the electronic components business. Recently, a batch of goods has been hoarded, which has caused poor capital turnover. But he's not desperate. At least he used this batch of goods as collateral, and he could get through it with a loan. It's just that in that case, his shipment timing will have to be advanced, which will make him a lot of benefits. That's why he thought of selling the herbs he had gotten before. To be honest, he bought it among women when he went to an auction with a friend. However, he knew that the people of the United States did not know how to use it for so many years. So we can only sit back and wait for appreciation.
He originally paid $3 million for the auction, and now he asks for $5 million, which is really not too much if you calculate it according to the average return on investment. It's just that he is in the United States, and it is useless for everyone to buy it. That's why it will become a situation where there is no market for price.
George, a fat white old man, greeted Yang Dezhu and Hunter warmly. He also took out his long-cherished red wine to entertain Yang Dezhu and others.
However, these are all based on interests, because after he learned that Yang Dezhu flew from Huaxia thousands of miles away. He showed his capitalist face. He wants strange goods to live in, he wants to increase prices.
Faced with such a thing, even Hunter, who is of the same nationality, is very angry. Because that's not what a good honest businessman should do.
On the contrary, Yang Dezhu was noncommittal about the price increase to $550. I still insist on looking at the goods first.
Reishi was haphazardly stored in a corner of a large pile of electronic components in a vault. This warehouse is all of George's belongings.
As soon as I entered the warehouse, I felt a burst of dampness in my face. Because for the sake of good sealing, George's warehouse basically has no vents. So even though he used a lot of desiccant. However, due to the lack of air flow, the warehouse still looks a little stuffy and humid.
George took the box where Ganoderma lucidum was collected, blew the dust on it, and opened it to show Yang Dezhu.
There was a burst of medicinal fragrance in the face, and you didn't need to look at it to know that it was a good thing. And this Ganoderma lucidum is as red as blood, and the age is more than 100 years, that's for sure.
However, Yang Dezhu immediately frowned in order to reduce the price. And when he returned the Lingzhi to George, he didn't mention the matter of the Lingzhi again, but said, "Mr. George, I think you must be very worried about the dampness of this warehouse." Or maybe not. Let's talk about another business. I am a formation mage of the Huaxia Kingdom. I can use a Huaxia formation to solve the problem of dampness in this warehouse. You'll never have to use these pungent and unpleasant desiccants again. I wonder if you are willing to pay half a million dollars for this formation? ”
Facing Yang Dezhu's Gu left and right, he said. Not only George was stunned. Even Hunter was stunned. Could it be that this Chinese man was originally here to sell this formation? Instead of buying reishi? They can't help but think so.
"No, Yang. I think you're a bit off topic. We met today and said that we were going to discuss the matter of this Ganoderma lucidum. And not to talk about what formations. Or are you here to sell your formations? George said with some displeasure.
Yang Dezhu smiled faintly and said, "No, George." I think you're mistaken. I did come to buy Ganoderma lucidum. However, due to poor preservation, your Ganoderma lucidum has lost its relatively large medicinal properties. So I don't think it's a good idea to spend a fortune on it. But anyway, I'm here today, and I can help you solve the warehouse problem by the way, as long as you are willing to pay me half a million dollars. ”
"Oh no, dear Yang, I don't agree with you. We are the most scientific, you can see that the humidity in my warehouse has been strictly controlled. There will be no mispreservation. Or do you want to keep the price down? We're all friends. I can sell it to you for $5 million at no price. But you can't insult my Lingzhi with that reason. George was angry on the surface, but he actually said a little weakly in his heart.
