026: I sold the ginseng
Drinking the ginseng stewed hen soup cooked by his mother, Liu Jian's first feeling was that 'Nima can finally eat MSG again.' ’
Only when we are completely away from modern industrial society can we understand how much enjoyment and convenience modern industrial society provides to people.
Toilets, toilet paper, air conditioners, dichlorvos and even monosodium glutamate...... In the future, if anyone says in front of Liu Jian that ancient times are better than modern times, Liu Jian will have to throw him into the primeval forest, let him enjoy the feeling of shaving his butt with wood chips after shit, and cooking only with salt to taste. In less than half a month, he will obediently kneel and beg to return to modern society.
For those who are always clamoring to return to nature, Liu Jian's current evaluation is a hypocritical petty bourgeoisie.
"Eat slowly. Look at what you run abroad, you don't even have a bite of good food. Watching Liu Jian swallow the chicken soup in a big gulp, Wu Fang complained and felt distressed.
"Hey, I know Mom, come and serve me another bowl."
"If you want to eat, won't you go?"
"I'll do it." Xu Jinxiu hurriedly stood up, took Liu Jian's bowl and ran into the kitchen.
Wu Fang looked at Xu Jinxiu and ran into the kitchen, and scolded Liu Jian: "Look at Xiao Xu, how sensible are you?" Look at you again, your father and I were bent on having a girl, and the girl was intimate. When I was pregnant, I ate spicy food all day long, and my mouth was foaming when I ate it, but I didn't expect that it was you who fell out in the end. ”
"Mom, don't say no, you can say that I'm leaving."
"Let's go, you're capable. There is only a shuttle bus at 6 o'clock every morning, you go, I see you stand under the stop sign all night. ”
Seeing Xu Jinxiu coming back with chicken soup, Wu Fang stopped her mouth, no matter what, she had to save some face for her son in front of others.
After eating lunch, Wu Fang went out with a small bench to make trouble, leaving Liu Jian and Xu Jinxiu at home, and said something to let the young people talk more about each other.
Liu Jian chatted with Xu Jinxiu for a while, and knew about Xu Jinxiu's situation.
Xu Jinxiu works in the first hospital of the city, the chief physician, and the 27-year-old chief physician can really be called young and promising.
The process of getting to know Wu Fang is also very simple, Wu Fang went to the hospital to check her body and happened to meet Xu Jinxiu on duty, Xu Jinxiu checked Wu Fang, and prescribed her a Chinese medicine prescription. The two chatted for a few words, only to find that the two sides turned out to be fellow countrymen, which made the conversation even more in-depth.
But to Liu Jian's surprise, Xu Jinxiu is not only the chief physician of the first hospital of the city, but also runs a traditional Chinese medicine hall at home, and the famous rejuvenation hall in H City is Xu Jinxiu's family's industry.
This is not just a young and promising, but a standard rich second-generation Golden Phoenix.
To be honest, Xu Jinxiu's dress really doesn't look like a rich second generation.
"What, don't you think I'm like it?" Xu Jinxiu looked at Liu Jian's expression, knew what he was thinking, and said with a smile: "I grew up with my grandfather and grew up in the countryside. ”
"Oh." Liu Jian nodded, not asking, he suddenly thought of the big bag of ginseng in his small space: "By the way, your family is in the traditional Chinese medicine business, so do you collect wild ginseng?" ”
"Harvest, more than ten years of wild ginseng harvested." Xu Jinxiu said, suddenly remembering the ginseng that Liu Jian took back, and couldn't help asking, "Do you have it?" ”
"There are quite a few. It's the same one I gave my mom. Liu Jian thought about the big bag he brought back: "About a few dozen." ”
Dozens?
Xu Jinxiu felt that Liu Jian was talking about it.
Changbai Mountain wild ginseng has been excavated for more than 1,000 years, and the roots have long been dug up in many places. Ten years ago, the price of 100-year-old ginseng was around one million, and today it has risen to almost 2 million ten years later.
Can Liu Jian take out dozens of them at a time?
Xu Jinxiu felt that the possibility was really small.
"Okay, whether it's a few dozen or a few hundred, the Rejuvenation Pavilion can eat it." Xu Jinxiu replied without hesitation, with a thorn in his tone and a little pride. She thinks that Liu Jian may have some ginseng, but it is unlikely that 100 years of ginseng is possible. If it's just a general ten-year wild ginseng or something, hundreds of roots are really not a big deal for the Rejuvenation Hall.
Liu Jian felt that Xu Jinxiu was a bit of a rich second generation.
"That's it." Liu Jian didn't care what Xu Jinxiu thought in his heart: "Go back to me, I'll show it to you, if you think it's appropriate, I'll give you a price." ”
Liu Jian doesn't like the feeling of owing favors to others, and it just so happens that he also has a batch of wild ginseng in his hands, and dealing with Xu Jinxiu will be considered a favor.
Nowadays, the authentic Changbai Mountain wild ginseng is becoming less and less with continuous excavation, and it is definitely a scarce resource that is in short supply and has no price. No matter which Chinese medicine shop it sells to, others will rush to accept it. In many cases, whether a Chinese medicine shop has enough years of wild mountain participation is regarded as the criterion of whether the pharmacy has enough strength.
And he didn't bother to bother, so letting Xu Jinxiu help him deal with it could be regarded as saving himself trouble.
After living in the countryside for two days, Liu Jian wanted to go back to the city, and it happened that Xu Jinxiu came again, so Liu Jian hitchhiked with him.
Before leaving, my mother filled a large snakeskin bag with all kinds of fruits and vegetables, and stuffed the entire trunk of the car.
If it weren't for the hitchhiking, Liu Jian wouldn't have bothered to take these things on the road.
The angry old mother hammered him two more fists.
Xu Jinxiu was quite interesting, without saying a word, he sent him all the way home, and carried things upstairs several times.
There is no pretentiousness in the slightest.
At first glance, he is a master who can work.
Liu Jian saw that although her fingers were very slender, the knuckles and calluses were obvious. Liu Jian estimated that he wanted to use force to get the owner of these hands, and sure enough, it was faster to dream......
"You happened to be here too, come up and have a cup of tea. I'll show you the ginseng. ”
"Okay."
Xu Jinxiu locked the car and followed Liu Jian upstairs, which made Liu Jian a little weird.
Now that it was getting dark, a big girl walked into a single man's house unsuspectingly...... Even if this single man is himself, Liu Jian still thinks it's quite weird.
After entering the house, Liu Jian remembered that there was no tea at home.
There was half a box of Nescafe left over in the computer desk, and when I picked it up, it was already expired.
"I haven't been back for a long time, and I don't have anything at home, so you can drink some boiled water first." Saying this, Liu Jian himself was a little embarrassed, and invited people home to drink tea, but what came out was boiled water.
Fortunately, Xu Jinxiu didn't care, she did seem to be a little thirsty, and took two sips of the glass with a gurgling glass.
Liu Jian turned around and entered the room, and after a while, he walked out with a snakeskin bag.
In Xu Jinxiu's opinion, Liu Jian took it from the room, but in fact, Liu Jian just leaned against the door, reached into the small space of the ring and pulled it out.
"Take a look, and if you think it's okay, just make a price."
Xu Jinxiu opened the package and looked at it, and was dumbfounded.
