No.94 Fierce goods
March Street is divided into several areas, such as department store trading area, medicinal herb trading area, livestock trading area and art show.
The department store trading area sells all kinds of goods, handicrafts, and agricultural products, and other things, and after a few days here, Wang Mingyuan is already very familiar with it, and for him, there is nothing to look at, and there is nothing special to buy.
So in the spirit of looking at the national customs, he first went to the art performance area.
There are several performing arts platforms set up there, and various performances are carried out, and of course, the national characteristics of mountain songs are indispensable.
Wang Mingyuan sadly found that he was full of interest in mountain songs, and he stopped to watch for a long time, and found that he couldn't understand what others were singing at all.
One nation and one language, Yun Province is undoubtedly the most complex place with language components, there is no one, in this era when Mandarin has not been vigorously popularized, Wang Mingyuan, as a native of Mingcheng, only has a confused face.
So, he could only watch the horse races in a stupid manner.
Fierce racers from the surrounding Bai, Yi, Hui and other ethnic groups, fierce competition, but let him experience a good experience of thrill and excitement, this is not a TV look like a bells and whistles of equestrian competition, both riders and horses, are full of wildness, one by one.
As for the livestock trading area, mainly with large livestock such as mules and horses, buffaloes, cattle, and donkeys as the main trading goods, Wang Mingyuan was not too interested in this, so after watching the horse race for a while, he went straight to the most famous medicinal material trading area, commonly known as the medicine street.
Medicine Street, this is the top priority of March Street.
You must know that here is a collection of most of the various Chinese medicinal materials in Yun Province, and at least half of the merchants and buyers come and go for the medicinal materials on the medicine street.
When Wang Mingyuan came to the medicine street, he smelled the special smell of traditional Chinese medicine mixed with various smells from a distance, and the whole medicine street was full of people, and its liveliness was no less than that of the department store.
After all, anyone will have a headache and brain fever or something, and it is really a missed opportunity to come to March Street and grab a few pairs of medicines on the famous medicine street.
For medicinal material buyers from all over the world, it is like suddenly breaking into a treasure trove.
Wang Mingyuan was also quickly attracted by the strange Chinese medicinal materials on the medicine stalls.
On the stalls are pangolins peeled off the whole set of scale armor, rhinoceros horns sawed from the nose of rhinoceros can also be seen everywhere, as well as all kinds of snakes that have dried up and coiled in circles, bottles and jars of wine, centipedes, scorpions and all kinds of unnamed insects are also everywhere.
In addition to various plant and animal medicinal materials, there are even medicinal stones and various strange powders.
Looking all the way, Wang Mingyuan found that most of the medicinal materials were unheard of by him, but he had gained a lot of knowledge.
Even, Wang Mingyuan also came across a Yi man who was carrying a bloodstained hemp bag and looked very strong, and as soon as he put it down, it immediately attracted the attention of many people, and he quickly came over.
Out of curiosity, Wang Mingyuan also leaned over, and saw that as soon as the man's bag was opened, there was a section of bones that were still bloody, Wang Mingyuan couldn't see what it was, but there was no shortage of knowledgeable people around, and someone looked at the man with envy and said the name of this thing: Tiger Bone!
A whole set of tiger bones! There is also a whole piece of tiger skin in perfect condition......
This made Wang Mingyuan's eyes straighten all of a sudden.
This is a well-known thing, an extremely valuable Chinese medicinal material, not a good thing that ordinary people can touch, especially in the bag, there is a thick and complete tiger whip.
This is a Mengren, he can hunt such a powerful creature at the top of the food chain, and I don't know how to do it.
"How do you sell this tiger bone? What price? ”
"How much is this whip?"
……
A group of people stepped forward to ask for the price, and more and more people gathered around.
"Three hundred and one kilograms of tiger bones, this whip is six hundred!"
The man spoke in jerky Chinese and quoted the price: "If you can buy it, you can buy it, if you can't buy it, you can leave, no two prices!" ”
After he finished speaking, he didn't say anything more, found a place to sit down, and carefully protected the bag in front of him, as if he was afraid of flying.
This is often hundreds of things, and the high price makes the people who surround it daunting, and many people choose to fade away, but there are still several of them, constantly lobbying, wanting to lower the price.
The price offered by the man, Wang Mingyuan doesn't know whether it is expensive or not, but it is certain that this is definitely not a price that ordinary people can easily afford, after all, walking all over the entire medicine street, this complete pair of tiger bones is also unique, as for other stalls, there are also drugs for sale with tiger bone signboards, however, I don't know if it's true or not, but the price is really high.
Moreover, tiger bone wine, which has been passed down from ancient times to the present day, must have its own unique effects.
Of course, in these years, there are still a lot of tigers, and in the era of guns, there are still many people who have the courage and ability to hunt tigers.
It's not like later generations, the king of the forest was made into a protected animal, and it is difficult to show his majesty.
As the saying goes, there is no harm if there is no buying and selling.
Perhaps it is driven by the miraculous medicinal effects that a large number of wild animals gradually become extinct, and the tigers in Yun Province are also endangered.
In 2023, there are only a few dozen tigers left in Yun Province, and most of them are raised in zoos, and there are very few in the wild forests.
It is said that the wild tigers in the forests on the border of Yun Province can be counted in a single slap.
Tiger bones, rhino horns, ivory, etc., after 1993, are strictly prohibited from selling, once discovered, it is absolutely investigated to the end, and the matter is very serious.
Even if these things are handed down from the ancestors, after they are registered, they can only be used at home, and once they are taken out for profit and sold, it is also illegal.
Such a hot thing naturally can't be brought to 2023, and if you are not careful, it will definitely bring you a lot of trouble.
This is also the reason why Wang Mingyuan knew that not only could make handicrafts, but also had high medicinal value, even if it could be sold for a lot of money in later generations, he did not have the slightest idea.
Tiger bone and tiger whip, he naturally didn't think much about it.
There are so many ways to make money, there is no need to take risks. Moreover, with Wang Mingyuan's ability at this time, even if he brings it back to 2023, he has no relevant channels to solve it.
Seeing enough of the excitement, Wang Mingyuan shook his head, left the crowd, and continued to browse through the various medicinal herb stalls, and soon, his attention was attracted by the bargaining on the stall next to him.
"Forty pieces a kilogram? This price is too high, too high, last year's national purchase price was only more than 20 yuan, you rose so much, how can anyone dare to buy? You have less ......"
A man in a Mao suit and glasses was in the stall, pulling the things in his pocket: "Twenty-seven and one kilograms, I have taken all of them here." ”
The stall owner with a face full of vicissitudes still stretched out four fingers, gestured, and said in jerky Chinese: "Forty, one point is not a lot." ”
Judging by the costume, this is a Tibetan, and there are several people standing behind him.
"Twenty-eight, I'll add more, do you sell it or not?"
The stall owner shook his head.
"Thirty, no more!" The middle-aged man hesitated for a long time and raised the price again.
At this moment, another person passed by, who seemed to be this person's companion, and said with a smile: "Don't waste your efforts, he has been in this stall for two days, and he has never sold anything, this medicine, I have also given the price, don't say it is thirty, I give thirty-two and he will not sell, let's go to other stalls to see, we will definitely be able to find a cheaper one, complete this procurement task." ”
fo
The middle-aged man nodded, got up and reluctantly looked at the contents of the bag, and finally left with his companion.
After the two left, Wang Mingyuan also took a closer look, which was a bit terrible.
The back of the bag turned out to be full of cordyceps.
Cordyceps!
"Forty dollars a kilogram, I heard you right." Wang Mingyuan secretly exclaimed in his heart.
If we measure it according to the proportion of the price of grain that has increased by almost 20 times, it is only 800 yuan a kilogram.
And in 2023, this thing will be sold on the roots, and it will be the famous King of Rare Grass.
This is a lot of money!
