Chapter 238: Top-grade Natural Bezoar? Fake!

Although he was a little unimpressed by Yuan Huanshan's suggestion, Zhou Xiaochuan finally did as he said, and in the next two days, he quietly gave the necklace to Zhang Aijia and Huang Xiaowan respectively, and the whole process was as sneaky as the thief. Lin Qingxuan was busy with the Shi family's case and couldn't see anyone, so this chain was not able to be sent out for the time being.

Whether it was Zhang Aijia or Huang Xiaowan, when they received the necklace from Zhou Xiaochuan, they all had a surprised expression.

Huang Xiaowan's surname is relatively gentle and shy, and after thanking Zhou Xiaochuan with a red face, she tightened the necklace and returned to her bedroom, locked the door, and looked at the mirror with the necklace, her pretty face was as beautiful as a blooming flower. After enjoying herself for a long time, she cherished the necklace given by Zhou Xiaochuan, and was a little reluctant to wear it. This night, she was so happy that she even fell asleep with a smile on her face.

Zhang Aijia's reaction was completely different, she put the necklace on in front of Zhou Xiaochuan, and immediately praised Zhou Xiaochuan's good eyesight, and the necklace she chose was quite appetizing to her. If it weren't for Huang Xiaowan's inopportune return home, maybe she would have offered a kiss like Li Yuhan.

Zhou Xiaochuan thought that the three women would communicate with each other after receiving the necklace they gave them, but they didn't expect that they wouldn't mention it to each other at all. And this, while making Zhou Xiaochuan puzzled, he also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

In addition, there is another thing that Zhou Xiaochuan did not expect.

In addition to Li Yuhan and Yuan Huanshan, Zhang Aijia and Huang Xiaowan also prepared a gift for Zhou Xiaochuan's family. Lin Qingxuan, who was busy with the Shi family's case, also sent a gift to Zhou Xiaochuan's family through the courier company. For everyone's enthusiasm and kindness, Zhou Xiaochuan couldn't help but smile bitterly while being grateful.

The reason for the wry smile is very simple, the various gifts given by these people add up to hundreds of catties! If it weren't for the improvement of his body through mysterious energy, it would have been a different place, and it would not be easy to carry such a good thing back with hundreds of pounds!

Time passed day by day, and the Spring Festival holiday was soon coming. After entrusting the affairs of the pet home to Zhang Aijia and Huang Xiaowan, Zhou Xiaochuan carried the hundreds of catties of gifts they gave and boarded the train home.

Although Zhou Xiaochuan's hometown is also in this province, it is very far away from Shide City, and even if it is by train, it will take half a day to complete. At the same time, because the Spring Festival is the peak period for passenger flow, Zhou Xiaochuan was unable to get a train ticket during the day, and only bought a train ticket at one o'clock in the morning. Zhou Xiaochuan didn't mind this, and was even a little satisfied. Because it was one o'clock in the morning, it was early in the morning when I arrived at the county seat where my hometown was located. Then transfer the bus to the town and go up the hill, and when you get home, it's exactly afternoon.

There was nothing to say on the train, and early the next morning, Zhou Xiaochuan arrived in Yungu County, where his hometown was located.

Out of the train station, Zhou Xiaochuan took a deep breath of the crisp air in the early morning, and walked towards the bus station.

Although the bus station is not far from the train station, if you follow the normal route, you have to go around a big circle. However, as a local, Zhou Xiaochuan knows a shortcut, only need to cross the nearby Chinese herbal medicine market, which can greatly shorten the distance.

Yungu County, where Zhou Xiaochuan's hometown is located, is a well-known hometown of Chinese medicinal materials in the province and even the whole country. Because of the soil, water quality, climate and other reasons, the Chinese medicinal materials produced here are of excellent quality and well-known, and many medicinal material merchants in the province and even in China will come here to purchase Chinese medicinal materials. It is precisely for this reason that even though it is just a quarter past five o'clock, the Chinese herbal medicine market is already full of people and lively.

In this extensive Chinese herbal medicine market, there are not only vendors who wholesale all kinds of medicinal herbs in fixed stores, but also many vendors who carry backpacks and baskets and set up stalls on the side of the road. The price of the medicinal herbs sold by these stall vendors is much cheaper than that in the shops, but the quality is uneven, there are not only high-quality authentic medicinal materials, but also some fakes. If you want to pick out the treasures in the stalls here, it is basically impossible without extraordinary eyesight and rich knowledge of medicinal materials. But even so, there are still many people who linger in front of these stalls, wanting to try their luck, in case they buy high-quality authentic medicinal materials at a very low price, and they can make a lot of money as soon as they change hands.

Zhou Xiaochuan has no interest in these Chinese medicinal materials, and at this time, he just wants to go home as soon as possible. The closer he got to home, the more nervous and anticipatory he became. I don't know if my parents have more gray hair at home, and I don't know if my sister is happy...... Just when Zhou Xiaochuan was in a hurry, there was a commotion in front of him, and with Zhou Xiaochuan's current extraordinary hearing, it was naturally not difficult to hear that the owner of a stall in front of him was shouting and selling: "A pound of high-grade natural bezoar, people who know and understand the goods can come and have a look!" ”

This shout immediately attracted many onlookers. You must know that in today's world, most of the bezoars are artificial, and natural bezoars are already very rare, not to mention the high-grade natural bezoars? If it's genuine, it's quite expensive!

All of a sudden, the crowd of people from all directions blocked the road, and Zhou Xiaochuan, who was in a hurry to go home, could only helplessly stop his pace and wait for these onlookers to disperse.

Everyone looked and sniffed around the pound of bezoars placed on the stall, and from time to time there was a 'tsk' sound in the mouth, and some acquaintances also got together to discuss in a whisper, and they were a little unsure whether this thing was a pure natural bezoar, and whether the quality was top-grade. After all, this pound of high-grade natural bezoar, even if it is cheap, it will cost tens of millions, so they naturally have to be cautious, and they dare not start easily before determining the authenticity.

At this moment, an old man wearing a horse coat and robe, with a bit of an ancient style, walked into the crowd. Seeing him, these people gathered in front of the stall all took the initiative to give way to him, some respectfully greeted him, and some said to him with a flattering face: "Di Lao, you came just in time, let's see if this is a high-grade natural bezoar." ”

Di Lao's head was high, ignoring what these people said, and he looked like he was lonely and self-admiring. But these people around him just ate him, and their attitude became more and more respectful.

"Top-grade natural bezoar?" Di Lao squatted down and asked casually while inspecting the bezoar on the stall.

"That's right." The vendor looked confident, and did not shrink because Di Lao was inspecting, but said with a smile: "Di Lao, you are the famous king of herbs in this Chinese herbal medicine market, you can see if I am a top-grade natural bezoar, lest anyone think that I am lying to them!" ”

Di Lao didn't speak, just held the catty bezoar and looked and sniffed, and after a while, he put down the bezoar in his hand.

"How's it going, Elder Di?" The people around hurriedly asked.

"It's a top-grade natural bezoar, yes! It's a pity, old man, I can't afford this thing......" After throwing down such a sentence, Di Lao ignored the people around him and turned to leave.

Obviously, these people in the Chinese herbal medicine market are quite convinced of Di Lao's judgment. After hearing the affirmative answer he gave, he suddenly became excited and began to ask the price.

The vendor was also full of confidence at this time, and he insisted: "One million!" I won't sell it for a penny less! He ignored those who tried to bargain with him.

Many people regret it at this time, if they were just a little bold and bought this high-grade natural bezoar before Di Lao gave the appraisal results, he would definitely not have spent so much money. Now that it's okay, people have the confidence, and they insist that they won't sell it if they have one million less. Most of the onlookers couldn't afford to pay the price. And those who can afford this price are hesitating to spend so much money to buy this bezoar. Although it is said that the high-grade natural bezoar is indeed worth this price, it is not easy to sell it at a high price.

For a while, almost everyone was taking a wait-and-see attitude, but the traders were not in a hurry, firmly believing that their high-quality natural bezoar could be sold at a high price.

An old man with a childish face and a young man with a strong body squeezed in at this time, and after bowing to the vendor, he said earnestly: "Boss, can it be a little cheaper?" We only have more than 800,000 yuan, but we urgently need this piece of high-grade natural bezoar to save the lives of our relatives......"

Before they could finish their words, they were interrupted by the vendor: "I will not lose a cent of a million dollars." If it's too expensive, turn around and walk a few steps to the left, there is an artificial bezoar sold in the store there, and the price is cheap. ”

The young man pleaded: "If the artificial bezoar is to be useful, why should we pay a high price for your high-quality natural bezoar?" Boss, you can get cheaper, we really need this medicine to save people's lives! ”

The vendor said impatiently: "I don't care what you do with this bezoar, it won't be a penny less anyway!" ”

The young man was a little anxious: "You ...... person"

"Huang'er, don't be rude!" The old man interrupted the young man's words, hesitated for a moment, and then took out a crystal clear jade pendant from the inner pocket attached to his chest: "This jade pendant is worth at least three or four hundred thousand, how about using it and adding the eight hundred thousand, how about buying your bezoar?" ”

"Jade pendant? Don't be fake, right? The vendor squinted at the jade pendant with a skeptical expression on his face.

The young man was not happy: "How can it be fake!" Someone once paid 600,000 yuan to buy my grandfather's jade pendant, and his old man was not willing to sell it! ”

"That's right......" The vendor's eyes rolled, and he wondered in his heart that the business seemed to be done.

However, an untimely voice sounded at this time: "Don't be fooled, this thing is not a high-grade natural bezoar at all." If you want to use it as medicine, you won't save people at all, it will only kill people! ”

The person who said this was Zhou Xiaochuan!
