Section 13: Snow Ginseng (2)
When Fu Zhong heard this, he whispered to Qin Chuan: "When I came to the main city to report on my work that day, Zhang Cheng's carriage used six snow-white ice horses. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"Then it seems that it is really the city lord of Zhang, there is no doubt. Qin Chuan nodded.
The lobby of the inn is brightly lit and magnificent. If you look up from the hall, you can see the guest rooms on the upper floors. There are many people gathered in the hall, some are eating and drinking, and they are chatting and laughing, but more people are talking about things with others.
"It's strange, it's so late, why is your inn still so lively?" Jiang Ziliang wondered.
"Guest officer, you don't know this, in the lobby of our Yongan Inn, there will be an auction of snow ginseng tomorrow, and these people are preparing for tomorrow!" The innkeeper said: "Guest officer, the upper room of our inn has both a single courtyard built at the back and an upstairs suite. This single courtyard is very quiet, but the upstairs suite can be seen in the lobby. It should be your first time in Yong'an Town, and you are not here for the Snow Ginseng Fair, so why don't you choose an upstairs suite and watch the lively trade fair tomorrow?"
"Huh, that's a good suggestion! Wang ...... Young master, how about we go to live in the upstairs suite?" Jiang Ziliang has always loved to be lively, and when he heard that there was a lively scene to see tomorrow, he became happy.
"Young Master Wang?" Qin Chuan knew that Jiang Ziliang had almost called "Lord Wang", but he still smiled and teased: "Where did I come from, Young Master Wang? My surname is Qin, not Wang, who is Young Master Wang, who are you going to tell him." ”
"Young Master Qin, isn't Young Master Qin okay?" Jiang Ziliang hurriedly said.
Qin Chuan smiled and said, "Then it's up to you." ”
On the second day, the Snow Ginseng Auction was held as scheduled.
The lobby of the inn was full of businessmen, who came from all regions of the mainland, and they were all gearing up and planning to do a big job.
"This fair is still lively. Qin Chuan opened the window and looked at the situation in the lobby downstairs and said.
"Snow ginseng is a very precious herb and is widely used. The snow ginseng in Yong'an Town is full of years and has good medicinal effects, and it is sought after by the entire continent. Fuzhong said.
"I see, then it's no wonder. Qin Chuan looked around the room and wondered, "What about Ziliang? If there had been such a bustle in the past, wouldn't he have appeared a long time ago?"
"This ......" Fuzhong was also a little puzzled, not knowing where Jiang Ziliang went.
"The first piece for sale, five-hundred-year-old snow ginseng, 10,000 catties, and the reserve price is 10,000 taels of gold. The auction boy said, "These are samples, and those who are interested can come and inspect them." ”
As soon as the auction brother finished speaking, many people surrounded him, even if he had no intention of buying ginseng, he wanted to take a closer look at the 500-year-old snow ginseng.
"Five hundred years? This is the first sale, it is already five hundred years, Yong'an Town really lives up to its reputation, I came all the way from Xiping, it is really worth it." Someone in the hall said.
"What is 500 years? You are the first time to come to Yong'an Town, right? This Yong'an Town, it is not unusual for thousands of years to come out. Another person said, "I have been here every year, and I have seen the auction of 10,000-year-old ginseng here!"
"Ten thousand years?" the people around him who heard him speak were shocked. 10,000 years of ginseng, this is really similar to the blood of the dragon bone and phoenix.
Qin Chuan's location was on the third floor, not close to the hall, but it was nothing to a monk, and the person spoke loudly, although Qin Chuan was not a monk, he was naturally deaf and clear-sighted, so he naturally heard the man's words.
"10,000-year-old snow ginseng, how much gold does it take to shoot it?" a young man asked in surprise not far from the person who spoke. This young man is Jiang Ziliang.
"It turns out that Ziliang went to the hall!" Qin Chuan smiled and said, "It's strange that I have to see him to see the excitement, it turns out that he went to join in the fun!"
"How much gold does it take to shoot it?" Jiang Ziliang asked again.
"Gold, gold is good, but after all, it is a vulgar thing, how can it be afforded by a 10,000-year-old snow ginseng?"
"Isn't it gold, is it a hedroon?" someone asked. Hedron is a crystal clear gemstone, full of natural energy, and monks often use it to communicate with each other.
"It's not a spars, and although they're precious, there's no shortage of them in the world. That 10,000-year-old snow ginseng is a scarce thing. ”
"What's that?"
"Oh, I'm dying, say it quickly!"
"Uncle Fuzhong, guess what?" Qin Chuan asked.
"Lord Wang, I don't have to guess, I know what it is. Fuzhong smiled.
"Oh?" Qin Chuan was surprised, "You know?"
"Not only do I know that the 10,000-year-old ginseng was taken by me personally. Fu Zhong said.
"So, the one who won the 10,000-year-old snow ginseng back then was my Zhi'en Palace?"
"Lord Wang, exactly. The thing we used to take pictures of the ginseng is actually a prescription. Fuzhong said.
"A prescription?" Qin Chuan was surprised.
At this time, the people in the hall also told the matter of the prescription.
"A prescription?"
"What prescription is so precious that it can be exchanged for 10,000-year-old snow spirit ginseng?"
"Fake, aren't you fooling us?"
Everyone, you and I, don't believe that a prescription can be exchanged for such a precious snow ginseng.
"Hmph, that's the way it is, it's a prescription in exchange for a snow ginseng, believe it or not!"
"What kind of prescription is so precious?" Qin Chuan asked Fu Zhongdao.
"What is the prescription, you can tell me?" asked the people in the hall as well.
"Nobody knows what the prescription is, and no one knows who the two sides of the deal are. The man shook his head.
"Lord Wang, everyone in the world knows the old prince...... The reason why he failed to ascend to the position of the Ninety-Five is that his body is highly poisonous, his meridians are completely wasted, and his cultivation has been reduced to nothing. Fuzhong said, "Everyone thought that the old prince would not live long, but they didn't expect that the old prince would live for nearly three hundred years since then." Our old prince, we rely on this prescription and the 10,000-year-old snow ginseng that we shot. ”
When it came to the matter of the old prince, Qin Chuan's heart was a little sour.
"In this way, is that a good prescription for life?" Qin Chuan understood.
"It's not a life-saving formula. Fu Zhong said, "That's a prescription for treating the meridians. The old prince's meridians are all broken, he can't keep the true yuan, and he has no cultivation, and his life will be exhausted. And that prescription, although it can't restore the old prince's meridians to their original state, it can also be repaired to a state where the meridians can store a little true yuan and be relatively smooth. Everyone in the world thinks that the old prince can live for more than 200 years, because there is a good prescription for life, but in fact, our old prince has recovered some cultivation, and there are still more than 200 years of longevity. ”
"A cure for the meridians...... Meridians?" Qin Chuan's heart was beating.
