Chapter Eighty-Three: Zhan Tong
There was a knock on the door, and Xu Yang was woken up in his sleep.
I made plans for the future last night, and I don't know when, so I fell asleep on the table in a daze.
When I looked up, it was already the rising sun, and it seemed that this trip was still quite tiring.
wiped his face casually, went out and opened the door slowly, and when he saw it, it was Zhantong.
Seeing Xu Yang, Zhantong's face turned green, and his face was bitter: "Why did you come back to pinch it?"
......
"What's the matter? so crying, such a big man, come and wipe it. As he spoke, Xu Yang casually handed over a towel.
"Thank you, why does it smell?" wiped away his tears, and Zhantong felt that something was wrong.
"Oh, it's a rag for wiping the table. ”
"............" resentful eyes, staring straight at Xu Yang.
"Okay, let's talk about it, what's the matter?" Xu Yang leaned into the Taishi chair in the room, and the old god asked on the ground.
"It's not something you arranged, let me tell you, brother, I'm going to be miserable by you this time......"
Zhantong poured out the hard life of more than two months with Xu Yang one by one, crying while talking, crying is a miserable one.
It turned out that Xu Yang left him a lot of gold, silver and jewelry at that time, which he used to buy ginseng and other valuable medicinal materials, and especially told him that if there was a Tianshan Snow Lotus, he must buy it, no matter how expensive it is.
Zhan Tong also did it according to his instructions, Xu Yang almost left him all the jewels he got from Hu Yidao's iron box, and exchanged more than 100,000 taels of silver before and after.
However, there are too many goods that cannot be shelved.
Those pharmacists have spread wildly, and the emperor has an uncle who is not bad for money, and he buys all kinds of ginseng, Polygonum multiflori, and Ganoderma lucidum at a price one percent higher than the market price, and pharmacists everywhere have gotten the news before and after.
In the medicinal materials industry, a pharmacy may not be able to meet one or two customers who buy such valuable medicinal materials in a year, not to mention that the price is higher than the market price, even if it is calculated according to the usual market price, each valuable medicinal material can at least earn more than 50% of the profit.
Which store doesn't have any inventory?
Xu Yang did buy out the precious medicinal materials in the imperial capital, but compared with the pharmacy in the whole world, what can the pharmacy in the imperial capital be?
For a time, pharmacies from all over the country sent people to Beijing with all kinds of precious medicinal materials.
Zhantong was quite happy at the beginning, he could get some benefits from every transaction, although it was not much, and it would not be a small number once the amount went up.
This is also the benefit that Xu Yang gave him by default.
But after many transactions, Zhan Tong found that the jewelry of more than 100,000 taels of silver left by Xu Yang was a drop in the bucket compared to the medicinal materials brought by those foreign pharmacists.
A 500-year-old ginseng costs at least 300 taels of silver, and there are a few time-honored shops, and more than a dozen of them are brought over at once......
The three-hundred-year-old He Shou Wu has a market price of more than 100 taels of silver, and there is a family that buys He Shou Wu, bringing more than 20 pieces at a time.
In less than a month, the silver was spent.
However, the herbs kept coming.
To receive, or not to receive?
Zhan Tong gritted his teeth and took out his own silver to hold on for a while, but the price was not as high as before, and it was basically purchased at a slightly lower price than the market price.
You won't sell?
However, people come all the way to come, and if they don't sell, they have to sell, not to mention slightly lower than the market price, and then there are more competitors, and there are people selling two or three percent below the market price.
After all, if you sell it at that price, you can still make a lot of money, if you don't sell it, you will send it back the same way?
After holding on for a few more days, it was really unbearable, and Zhantong began to refuse to receive the goods.
Of course, it is not to say no directly, but to start picking and choosing.
At first, it is not a high-quality product, and the ginseng is at least 800 years old, and the quality is perfect.
Other medicinal materials are similar, and they have not been seen at all for two or three hundred years.
However, the money is still not enough.
What's more, there was no response after Xu Yang left.
There is also gossip circulating that there was a big battle in Tianlongmen, and the guards suffered heavy casualties.
Zhantong is worried, if Xu Yang hangs up, his family will be completely bankrupt.
He even secretly took out some medicinal herbs of inferior quality and wanted to sell them for some money.
Unfortunately, no one wanted it.
Everyone knows that the pharmacist who bought the precious medicinal materials himself seems to have been missing for a long time, so he didn't have the money to run away, right?
For a time, the market prices of various valuable medicinal materials plummeted, and some even had to sell them after sticking their capital.
A group of pharmacists from other places stayed at the door of Zhantong's house every day, crying for their father and mother, asking Zhantong to take over the medicinal materials they brought, otherwise they would play with him!
There was no way, Zhan Tong gritted his teeth, and gave his house a few hundred taels of silver, plus the remaining silver, and purchased some medicinal materials, which stabilized the masters at the door.
In fact, Zhantong can completely rely on the official position of the Ouchi guard to force those medicine merchants.
But the problem is, he's at fault.
Even if it gets to the government, there may not be anyone behind those pharmacists, and if a lawsuit starts, will you want your own face and the face of the Ouchi Guards?
It can be said that in the last month, Zhantong gritted his teeth and stood up, and even his wife's dowry jewelry was taken by him as a dowry jewel, and the family is still making trouble every day.
Trapped internally and externally, Zhantong has the heart to die.
Yesterday, it was easy to hear that the team that went to arrest the culprit had returned, Zhantong didn't dare to go through the gate, climbed over the wall, and rushed to the guards, but Xu Yang couldn't be found among the crowd.
scared him out on the spot, and he really sacrificed his life for the country.
When he woke up at night, others told him that Xu Yang was fine this time and had made a great contribution, and he was happy and fainted again.
I asked a doctor to show him, saying that he was overjoyed and sad, his qi and blood were not balanced, and his heart and lungs were damaged, and he was prescribed medicine for him to drink, and he was also taken care of to recuperate.
How could Zhan Tong be willing to recuperate, but the other colleagues in the guard department were afraid that something would happen to him, so they held him down.
It wasn't until this morning that he took advantage of the unpreparedness and escaped again, heading straight for Xu Yang's mansion.
After listening to his complaints, Xu Yang couldn't cry or laugh.
It's not enough to keep so much money?
This batch of pharmacists is really crazy.
Isn't it a good thing for yourself, though?
A large number of high-quality medicinal materials, each of which is a priceless good thing for future generations.
You can also use these medicinal materials to refine high-grade medicines, whether it is to save people or use them for cultivation in the future, they are much more effective than low-grade medicines refined from ordinary medicinal materials.
took the pulse for Zhantong, and indeed, as the doctor said, was very happy and sad, so that the heart and lungs were damaged, which was very bad for Zhantong in the future.
opened a prescription for reassuring and nourishing the lungs, taking care of Zhantong's relaxation, and he must take care of his body.
Then he massaged several acupuncture points of Zhantong, and by the way, a treatment technique was put on it.
