Chapter 13: Murder by the Sword Again
Brother Xinghui is also from Liaocheng, and he does a business of traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces in Bozhou, and he knows a lot of people, so it is no problem to see a doctor to buy medicine. After getting acquainted, Brother Xinghui gave us a business card, let us live first, and he arranged the rest, so he drove the Land Rover away.
We all shook hands with the driver and asked for his name, and he said that his name was Siyuan, and he said that he was Siyuan, and he drank water and Siyuan. It turned out to be Brother Siyuan, I said Brother Siyuan, don't go back to Liaocheng, go back to Shijiazhuang directly, I'm afraid that the enemy will make trouble for you. He said he understood, told us to take care and drove away.
After staying in the hotel, we didn't dare to go out, so we asked the front desk to order takeout for us. In the evening, an old man knocked on the door and said that it was a Chinese medicine doctor, and I quickly let him in. The old man had a goat's beard, and there were a few old age spots on his thin face, and he didn't speak when he came in, found a chair and sat down, so he took out a pulse pillow and put it on the table for Jiang Ming to take his pulse.
It took ten minutes to see the pulse, then look under the tongue, then look at the eyelids, and then say, fight, right? If you are really God, could it be Siyuan who said it? The old man said, your pulse is astringent by the shock, scattered but not gathered, Ren pulse qi stagnation and blood stasis, Qu Ji Guan Yuan, the upper part does not reach the sea of qi, and the lower part does not dive into the bent bones, that is, the dantian is blocked, so the lower abdomen is painful, and now you don't feel weak?
Jiang Ming nodded violently. The old man said, your injury is divided into two steps, first to dissolve stasis, and then to replenish qi and blood, it is estimated that you will have to take ten days and half a month. Jiang Ming said yes, yes. The old man took out a pen and paper, and said while prescribing the prescription, what is it, the breath you practiced has already been shaken away, and you have to start again.
I looked at Jiang Ming with a complicated expression, and he also looked at me with a strange expression, but he didn't dare to ask. The old man finished his prescription and said, "You sit down," and then pointed at me. Jiang Ming hurriedly got out of the way, and I sat down and stretched out my hand. The old man checked the pulse of both of my hands, and said that you are fine, but there is something in your left hand. Well, I have to go to Mengcheng County to find the Chenghuang there to ask for something, and I can't help you.
After the old man finished speaking, he got up, put away the pulse pillow, Fang Zi left it on the table, and took out a small note. Throw it on the table and say, the consultation fee is 10,000 yuan, and it will be transferred to the account. This is a prescription for a doctor, only 5,000? It's expensive, but people have the ability to do it. He glanced at the black cat when he turned around and said it was good.
We sent the old man out and asked for his name, and the old man said, surnamed Wan, and then left. After sending away the magic doctor, we went to see the prescription behind closed doors, what kind of medicine is this prescribed? They are all ordinary stasis medicines, and there are only three kinds of medicines to replenish qi and blood in the back, wild yellow essence, wild astragalus, and wild ginseng, and there is no amount.
The next day, I used my bank card to transfer 10,000 yuan to that account at the ATM, and then took the prescription to the pharmacy to grab the medicine, three pairs of stasis medicine, and decoction on behalf of it. The clerk said that those who replenish qi and blood will come to buy it after drinking the stasis medicine. After waiting for an hour, I got the decoction medicine, which was all sealed in a bag.
Jiang Ming said let's take a look at the Chinese medicine market. Just go. We talked as we walked, and I asked him when he started practicing qi, and he said he didn't know, he hadn't practiced it. I said, could it be those tips that the fat man taught you to get started? He said that if there was a practice of qi, the fat man would say, maybe it was the sacrificial mantra that had been recited thousands of times.
He poked a hole in the packaging of the liquid Chinese medicine with a straw, and drank it as he walked. This was so bitter that he frowned, and then turned his head and kept looking for the store, trying to buy candy to put in his mouth.
This Bozhou traditional Chinese medicine market is very large, the gate is an antique archway, carved beams and paintings, looking very luxurious. The entrance is the trading market, where people come and go, and it is lively. Look at the introduction at the door said that there are 350,000 square meters, two floors, the first floor is an ordinary medicinal materials trading area, and the second floor is a boutique and precious Chinese medicine trading area. I can't finish shopping in such a big day, but we plan to stay for half a month.
Entering the door is the raw material area, and there are sacks of medicinal herbs on the ground, and we go to the east gate, where is the drinking area. Looking at the buckets, pots, and jars of neatly arranged slices of medicinal herbs, smelling the strong medicinal fragrance, this looks strange, and it is still worth coming.
Jiang Ming said that it was better to go to the second floor and have a look, and I said okay. I just wanted to go upstairs and saw a lot of people around the raw material trading area, which is a tradition of the Chinese people, and we are no exception. So we also rushed over, only to see a lot of people surrounded by the inner and outer three floors, and when we squeezed in, we saw a basin-sized piece of Chinese medicine on a plastic stool.
The person next to me said that it was wild yellow essence, and our eyes lit up.
I heard the shopkeeper say that it was just collected, and the mud was twenty pounds together, and whoever wanted it was 20,000 yuan, and if the mud was cleaned up, it was estimated that the color would rise by another 10,000. The onlookers did not dare to bid, and they were all discussing in low voices. I watched the clerk bring a basin of water, soak the yellow essence, and then clean it out little by little with a plastic stick.
After changing the basin of water, everyone on the lookers took a breath of cool air and said that this has to go up, didn't they see that the meat was jade? Jade? We didn't understand, so we squatted down to see, and sure enough, this small basin-sized wild yellow essence was clustered and next to each other. There was a bit of jade translucent feeling under the light, and looking at the jelly-like skin, I poked Jiang Ming with my elbow.
He glanced at me, and he was also short of breath, it turned out to be a mustard in October, and he was interested. We squatted on the ground and didn't make a sound, just listened to the people around us keep raising prices. Thirty-one, thirty-two, and one thousand, who knows how many of them are trusted.
When the price was raised to 40,000 yuan, a twenty-four-five-year-old cheongsam beauty walked out of the store, pulled the shopkeeper, and said, "Boss Huang, I've been in your store for so long, just let me sit on a cold bench?" You informed me that you received wild yellow essence, and the price was raised at the door, how can we trade? ”
The shopkeeper, Boss Huang, was embarrassed and said, "Mr. Zhang, didn't you say it was sold?" They raised the price themselves, and I didn't say anything. I just told you about 20,000 yuan, and you said that you should consider it, how are you thinking about it now? ”
The cheongsam beauty snorted and said, "It's all raised to 40,000, how can you think about it?" Give me 50,000 yuan, help me wrap it up, and I'll transfer it to you now. ”
The onlookers were not happy, saying that they had not yet made a bid, some said 55,000, and some said 58,000. Boss Huang waved his hand and said, he didn't mean to auction, the big guys raised the price themselves, and now that Mr. Zhang wants it, everyone will disperse, and they will come to drink tea when they have time.
The dissatisfaction of the onlookers slowly dispersed. Jiang Ming and I stood up, our feet were numb, and I asked him, how is it? Want not? I want to buy it from Mr. Zhang for 60,000 yuan. Jiang Ming said that this piece of medicine is only 60,000, and 60,000 can buy a Qiyun to open it. I said what's the use of the car, isn't it running away now, you have to be in good health, you can carry it, you don't ask me to ask.
watched the beauty go outside, and there was a tall man beside her, holding the yellow essence just now, but it was all packaged and wrapped in bubble film. I chased after it, and when I got to the parking lot, the man heard the footsteps and turned to look. The cheongsam beauty also looked at me and said with a smile: "Yo, you want to rob in the market?" ”
I went up and said with a smile: "Mr. Zhang, can that yellow essence be given to me for 60,000 yuan?" ”
Mr. Zhang said: "My wild yellow essence, go back to take a bath, remove the old skin, and change hands for 100,000 yuan, do you have it?" ”
I took a breath of cool air, this is out of the market, but in just a few minutes, the price has risen? My 120,000 and Jiang Ming's 100,000 spent half of this time running, and the two of them didn't know if there were 100,000. What to do?
"That Xinghui is our friend, I don't know if Mr. Zhang knows him? He introduced us to the magic doctor last night, and the friend behind me urgently needed wild yellow essence to treat his illness, so he begged Mr. Zhang to raise his noble hand and give it to us cheaper. I glanced back at Jiang Ming.
"Starlight? Acquaintance, isn't he in the drink piece business? The doctor also knows and is a good doctor. But this business is business, and human favor is human favor, and it cannot be mixed up. Even if he Xinghui is here, he can't bargain for 40,000, right? "Zhang is always a businessman, in business.
I was out of words for a while, and I didn't know how to say it. Of the 20,000 things that no one wanted, it was 30,000 yuan for a bath, and it was fried to 40,000, and now it was bought by the cheongsam beauty Zhang Zong for 50,000. She went back to take a bath for Huang Jing, and it was 100,000 yuan after removing the old skin, which was 80,000 yuan in between. If you have a vision, it seems that making Chinese medicine is quite profitable.
Seeing that I didn't make a sound, Mr. Zhang got into the car, and the man turned out to be his driver. Watching the car slowly drive out, there was a letter B on the front face, I turned around and asked Jiang Ming, what kind of car is this? Jiang Ming said Bentley, more than three million. I took a breath of cool air, this car is more than three million, so this Mr. Zhang is so young, which richest man's daughter can't be?
We watched Bentley drive past, and I asked Jiang Ming, is this car front-wheel drive or rear-wheel drive? He said full-time four-wheel drive, 6.0 with T. Yikes! That's the same as the displacement of a bus? How much does that cost a kilometer? Jiang Ming looked at me with disdain, patted me on the shoulder and said, young man, people can buy more than 3 million cars, so can't they open a gas station at home?
Hehe, I can only giggle. Watching this black Bentley pass us, it stopped after driving for more than ten meters, the thick window pane lowered, and a jade hand stretched out with the bag of yellow essence. We hurriedly ran over, and Mr. Zhang said, take 50,000 yuan, see you are so righteous for your friends.
I held Huang Jing in both hands and kept saying thank you in my mouth. Mr. Zhang said, let Xinghui transfer money to me, and then closed the window and left. Why are the people of Bozhou so bold? They don't treat money as money, and they are not afraid that we will run away. I watched the Bentley go away. Jiang Ming kicked my ass in the back and said, everyone is gone, why are you in a daze?
Well, the beauty is gone, and we should go back too. Back at the hotel, we discussed how to deal with this yellow essence, and Jiang Ming had to drink stasis-dissolving medicine for two days before he could drink the medicine to replenish qi and blood. We don't know anything about the processing of traditional Chinese medicine, and we want to take it to someone for processing, but we are afraid of being dropped. In the end, Jiang Ming said you wash it for me, and I gnawed it all.
Can you eat so much alone? More than a dozen catties, you have to gnaw together. Hehe. I broke off all these yellow essences like ginger, then removed the old skin and scalded them twice with boiling water. Pick up a small one and put it in your mouth and chew it slowly, it doesn't taste good. The rest was left to dry on the windowsill.
Jiang Ming grabbed the landline at the head of the bed, called Brother Xinghui, and asked him for an account and transferred money to him. This one always gave us Huang Jing, and it spread in the market as early as possible. Xinghui gave us an account, and then said that the underground rivers and lakes in Bozhou have not been peaceful recently, as if this rumor is about you, you should be careful. We were busy asking what was going on.
Xinghui said that this morning, I heard from friends in the rivers and lakes in Bozhou, saying that there are two Cantonese boys, with the Luban bronze ruler of the Spring and Autumn Period, and the Kunpeng Fu settled in Bozhou, saying that these two are amazing magic weapons. By the way, he also said that he had a black cat. I looked like I was talking about you, and I just wanted to call you.
Now the rivers and lakes of Bozhou are about to move, you must pay attention to safety, I can't control the affairs of the rivers and lakes, I have a mess of business here. You've seen your illness and bought medicine, so it's best to leave if you can. We thanked Brother Xinghui, hung up the phone and packed up our things, if this is connected with the underground rivers and lakes in Bozhou, I don't know how to die.
Only to run away again. When I got downstairs, I found an ATM, transferred 50,000 yuan to Xinghui, and called the nearby garment market. We're ready to dress up and go. Jiang Ming picked out a black suit, and with glasses, he looked like a white-collar worker.
I wasn't as handsome as him, so I bought a black flat hat, a short black jacket, four pockets, and shoulder straps; I bought elastic jeans for the lower body, so that it would not affect the fight; stepping on a pair of high-top casual leather shoes; I bought another pair of toad glasses to wear, and I guess even my mother can't recognize this dress.
The black cat was held in a cardboard box, and the black cat was four or five pounds for several months, and it grew up fast. Jiang Ming pulled a suitcase and put everything inside, which was much more convenient. After dressing up, go out and take a taxi and let me go to Mongolia. The doctor said that my hand can only be solved by looking for the city god of Mengcheng, so let's go to Mengcheng.
