chapter 7 Centennial wild ginseng

by Lucas 14:13,Feb 01,2024


The woman was of medium height and well-proportioned. She had her hair in a bun and wore a white and blue cheongsam. The material is fine silk. This also makes her delicate skin, especially the fullness of her chest, looming under the cheongsam.

On her fair neck, she wore a thin necklace. The necklace looks very ordinary, but the emerald on the pendant is shining brightly, and it is worth a lot at first glance.

Under her slender white calves is a pair of beige high heels. It made her look taller and more charming.

Abel Schultz has seen many women wearing cheongsam, but none of them are as unique and full of charm as this woman wears.

Seeing the stall owner looking at her, the young woman said softly:

"Boss, you clearly said you paid two hundred, and others paid for it, but you increased the price temporarily. This is somewhat against the rules of business..."

The stall owner also noticed that this young woman was unusual, but with so many people, he didn't want to lose face. He just insisted and said:

"The others are two hundred, but this one is three hundred. If you can't afford it, don't buy it..."

The stall owner said the last sentence to Abel Schultz.

Abel Schultz really couldn't afford it.

This woman also noticed it. She was still as gentle as water. She looked at Abel Schultz and asked:

"Sir, how much money do you have left?"

Abel Schultz looked at the money in his hand and said a little embarrassedly:

"sixty……"

The woman opened her handbag, took out a hundred yuan, handed it to Abel Schultz and said:

"That's enough this time..."

Abel Schultz was not polite and said while taking the money:

"Thanks, I'll pay you back tenfold in a moment!"

With that said, he handed the three hundred yuan to the stall owner.

After wrapping up the wild ginseng, Abel Schultz wanted to turn around and thank him, but the woman had already left while supporting the old man.

Abel Schultz hurriedly shouted to the two of them:

"Wait a minute, I'll pay you back later!"

The woman said without looking back:

"Next time……"

Xia Xiaoyu didn't know them, so how could they meet again? It seemed that these two people didn't take the one hundred yuan seriously at all.

Master Mcfarland for his illness, so Abel Schultz was going to find a place to sell it first. After all, he returned to Jiang City this time almost penniless.

In addition to these stalls, the medicinal materials market also has some large Chinese herbal medicine stores. In addition to selling some valuable herbal medicines, this place also recycles high-end herbal medicines.

Abel Schultz walked around a lot and chose the largest store, ready to sell wild ginseng.

Pushing the door open, there are many customers in the pharmacy.

Abel Schultz took a casual look at it first and was about to talk to the boss about the price. As soon as I turned around, I saw a boss wearing gold-rimmed glasses and a Tang suit talking to a man and a woman in the rest area.

And these two people were the gentle young woman and the seventy-year-old man who had just paid Abel Schultz a hundred yuan.

The young woman also saw Abel Schultz, and she nodded slightly to Abel Schultz as a greeting. Then, he turned his head and never looked at Abel Schultz again.

The drugstore owner, who was wearing a Tang suit, talked to the two of them for a while. I saw him getting up and going back to the back hall, taking out a long brocade box. He walked up to the two of them with a smile and complimented the old man:

"Master Baker, I found the wild ginseng you asked for..."

With that said, the boss opened the brocade box. I saw an old wild ginseng inside.

This mountain ginseng has long round stems, is yellow-brown in color, and has a human shape. It looks to be sixty centimeters long.

Abel Schultz was not far away from the group of people, and his eyes were very different. He could see the shape of this wild ginseng clearly.

At this sight, he was shocked. Judging by its size and shape, this wild ginseng tree is probably nearly a hundred years old.

Master Baker also lit up. He took the brocade box, took out a magnifying glass, and looked at it carefully.

The boss stood beside him and said with a flattering smile:

"Master Baker, this wild ginseng was dug by a herbal dealer from Heilongjiang whom I am familiar with more than ten years ago in the Daxingan Mountains. It is said that when he dug this wild ginseng, it was already a sixth-grade leaf. It's a pity that he didn't keep the ginseng leaves. He didn't want to sell them originally, but the business ran into trouble and the capital turnover was difficult, so he reluctantly gave up and planned to transfer the old ginseng..."

Master Baker didn't say anything. He still held the magnifying glass and looked carefully. The boss continued:

"Old man, look at the beards and reeds of this wild ginseng. They are thin and long. It is an old ginseng at first glance. The texture of the skin is so good. And the shape, it already has a human form. According to legend, I'm afraid that this wild ginseng will really mature into a human being in another ten years. If you keep this ginseng, I will prepare some other medicinal materials for you. You can take it back and take it to ensure that you live longer and stay strong..."

As he said that, he laughed first.

After looking at it for a while, Master Baker put down the brocade box. He raised his head and asked the boss:

"Boss Showyer, I trust you, please give me a price..."

Boss Showyer smiled and said to Master Baker:

"Master Baker, this treasure is from my friend who is a herbal medicine dealer. He asked me to sell it on his behalf. What he said at the time was that if it is less than 7 million, he will never sell it. But your old man is my regular customer. That's all. During the years, you have always taken care of my business. If you really want to stay, I will make a decision for him and give it to you for a fixed price of 6.5 million..."

Master Baker looked up at the beautiful young woman and nodded slightly.

The beautiful young woman understood and said to Boss Showyer:

"We want the stuff, I'll transfer the money to you right away..."

With that said, he stretched out his hand to get the brocade box.

Just as she was about to get the brocade box, suddenly, her white and delicate little hand was grasped by a big hand.

When the beautiful young woman turned around, she saw Abel Schultz looking at her with a smile. The young woman couldn't help but blush, and hurriedly pulled her hand out. He asked somewhat complainingly:

"what are you doing?"

Although she was complaining, the young woman's tone was not harsh, and even a little gentle.

Boss Showyer suddenly became anxious. He glared at Abel Schultz and scolded:

"Who are you? Get out of here right away!"

With that said, he shouted to the two security guards at the door:

"What do you do for a living? How can such a rag-picking psychopath be able to let him in? Get him away right now..."

Upon hearing this, the two security guards immediately ran over with batons in hand, trying to drive Abel Schultz out.

Abel Schultz was neither anxious nor annoyed, his signature cynical smile was still on his face.

"Don't be anxious, Boss Showyer. You are both a doctor and a boss after all. You should know that the guests are the ones who come to your door. Why are you in such a hurry to drive away the guests..."

Boss Showyer waved his hands impatiently:

"Get out of here, get out of here, we don't do business with people like you..."

Abel Schultz sneered, looked at Boss Showyer, and said slowly:

"Don't do business? I think Boss Showyer is afraid that I will expose your fake ginseng..."
