Precious Chinese medicinal herbs such as tiger bones, bear bile, century-old wild ginseng, rhino horn and ambergris are all quite rare in the modern world, and some types of government departments have even banned public trading to protect those endangered wildlife.

But for dignitaries, these things are life-saving treasures at critical moments, and it is impossible not to use them. Therefore, the secret black market trading is repeatedly prohibited, and if it is not possible in China, it is tried to find buyers abroad.

Of course, in this parallel world similar to ancient China, there is no influence of industrialization, the environment is superior, and all kinds of wild animal and plant resources are abundant, so it is relatively easy to find and collect these things.

This time, Qin Feng deliberately came in to ask, that is, with the mentality of trying it out, after all, it is only a county town, and I am afraid that there will not be too many good things. If you can go to Yangzhou, Jinling, and even the imperial capital Luojing in the future, these rare medicinal materials and mountain specialties will definitely not be missing.

The little guy looked slightly stunned, thought for a while and said: "The things that the son wants are too valuable, and the small ones dare not call the shots, so I will ask the shopkeeper of my family to come and negotiate with you." ”

Qin Feng nodded, the little guy bowed and stepped back, went inside to say a few words, and a middle-aged man with a white face and a gray cloth robe walked out, bowed his hand, and said politely:

"This son, we have a little bit of hundred-year-old ginseng, tiger bones, and bear bile here, but the price is a little ......."

Even in the ancient world, these medicinal materials would not be cheap, unless the official gentry class, most ordinary people could not afford to use them.

"The price is not a problem, just take out all the good things in your store." Qin Feng said disapprerovingly.

The shopkeeper knew that the big customer was coming, and his expression became more and more polite, and he turned his head and told the two men to hurry up and get it.

After a while, the guys took out three brocade boxes and put them on the counter in front of Qin Feng.

The shopkeeper opened the largest box with his own hands, and saw that it was a huge mountain ginseng, with a round and long reed head, old yellow ginseng skin, fine lines, many pearl points, and complete roots.

Although Qin Feng didn't understand this, he had collected some information in this area before he crossed over last time, and now he could see that this thing was extraordinary.

"This ginseng has been growing for more than 170 years, and it belongs to the store's collection for many years, and I dare to say that in addition to this store within a radius of hundreds of miles, you can't find a second one with such treasures." The shopkeeper is quite confident.

Qin Feng was not very skeptical of this, after all, the ginseng that was more than 100 years old was not Chinese cabbage, and he could find a lot of them casually. It's good luck to be able to meet one when you come out by yourself. As for the legendary thousand-year-old ginseng, He Shou Wu and the like, I'm afraid it's just a legend, and it may not be possible to find it in Luojing's palace treasury, right?

"Okay, I want this ginseng, how much does it cost?" Qin Feng asked.

"Since Childe sincerely wants to buy it, then two thousand five hundred silver." The shopkeeper said.

As soon as these words came out, Qin Feng himself didn't feel anything, and Zhang Qiuyun and Zhao Cheng next to him suddenly looked a little unhappy.

Zhao Cheng said in a deep voice: "Shopkeeper, this mountain ginseng looks good, but your price is too outrageous, right?" Is it true that my son-in-law has never seen the world? ”

The annual cost of ordinary families is only two taels of silver, one acre of land is only worth ten taels of silver, and the annual salary of a county is only one hundred taels of silver (not counting gray income). Two thousand five hundred taels of silver is an out-and-out huge amount of money for people in this era.

"This son Mingjian, our store has been open in Jingnan County for three generations, has always been a child without deception, honest management, this ginseng is the treasure of the store's town store, this price is also set by our master, in the next dare not lie." The shopkeeper said calmly, neither humble nor arrogant.

"Okay, it's just two thousand five hundred taels, I want it." Qin Feng said indifferently.

The most important thing in his hand now is silver, two thousand five hundred taels of silver is converted into more than 300,000 Huaxia coins, as long as this century-old mountain ginseng is taken back to the modern world and thrown into a well-known international auction house, the price starts at least five million.

Since he spoke, Zhao Cheng and Zhang Qiuyun couldn't say anything more.

The shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief and said with a slight smile: "Childe really knows the goods, so it's agreed." This tiger bone and bear bile are also the best treasures of our store, so take a look. ”

In the second box are tiger bones, more than a dozen bones with a slightly black color, estimated to be about ten catties; Inside the last box was a complete pair of dried bear gallbladders, brownish-black, oblong-ovate, about the size of an adult's palm.

This tiger bone and bear bile are also precious things, but they are much worse than the hundred-year-old mountain ginseng, and the two things add up, and the shopkeeper offers six hundred taels. Qin Feng did not hesitate and happily agreed.

As for rhino horn, bezoar, ambergris and the like, there is no such thing in this store. He was not very disappointed, as Zhao Yuanjin's territory expanded in the future, he would find what he wanted sooner or later.

Zhang Qiuyun opened the bag he was carrying, took out a stack of silver tickets with a denomination of one hundred taels from it, and counted thirty-one and handed them to the shopkeeper.

This silver ticket was issued by the largest money bank in the county, and the owner behind the scenes had a good relationship with Zhao Yuanjin, and with the credibility guarantee of the Lord of the Festival, the silver ticket issued was naturally effective, at least no one would refuse to accept it in this county town.

The only regret is that the largest denomination of the silver ticket is only one hundred taels, and no matter how big it is, there is no more, which makes Qin Feng feel a little regretful. In the future, when you want to buy something in large quantities, will you have to go out with bundles of silver tickets? I feel a little inconvenient.

Asked the two guards to bring their things, Qin Feng left satisfied, planning to go to another place to see.

"Childe, if you really need this thing, I should still have some ...... at home" Zhang Qiuyun looked at him hesitantly and whispered.

"It's rare that you have a heart, but I just take some at will, and I don't have to embarrass your parents." Qin Feng said gently.

In ancient times, as long as it was a wealthy family with good economic conditions, they would usually collect some good medicinal materials and put them at home for later use, and the Zhang family was naturally no exception.

It's just that Zhang Qiuyun's current identity is a little embarrassing, nameless and shareless, and rashly went back to tell her parents about it, the other party may not agree, this is not a matter of spending some money.

Seeing that Zhang Qiuyun's expression was a little gloomy, Qin Feng smiled casually, took her little hand and held it in his palm, signaling that she didn't have to mind.

Immediately, her face turned red, the atmosphere of this era is still open, and the defense of men and women is not as strict as in the Ming and Qing dynasties. However, being held by a man in front of the public still made Zhang Qiuyun feel ashamed.

A hundred meters away, two young men in Taoist costumes with bright eyebrows and extraordinary bearing were walking together, their bright eyes quietly looking at the surrounding street scene.

"Brother Yun, there seems to be something wrong with the weather in this city." A younger man said.

The older one was silent for a while, and said, "Yes, if there is turmoil today, dragons and snakes rise together." The master ordered me to go out of the mountain to assist the true king of the Mandate of Heaven, and unify the world as soon as possible to end the troubled times. ”

"Senior brother, I have traveled all over the world in the past few years, and I have seen all the princes and people in the world, and the last time I saw this Zhao Yuanjin, I was just an ordinary leader of the righteous army, and my qi was limited, and I had no destiny. At best, it is just to precursor the king and open the way for the true dragon. ”

"Meng Luo is a genuine general of the Great Qi Imperial Court, he led his troops to encircle and suppress, this Zhao Yuanjin was bound to die, but he didn't know how to survive, it really made people feel strange."
