Chapter 1332 Otherworld (forty-seven)
Pang Xiaonan bent down and kept moving closer to Laoshan Ginseng's tip until he felt the hair on the tip of his nose touching the skin of Laoshan Ginseng. He stopped.
Pang Xiaonan felt the fresh aura from Laoshan Ginseng. He sniffed his nose suddenly, and a deep breath from the depths of the earth's crust rushed into his nose from his nostrils and reached his brain.
The shopkeeper looked at Pang Xiaonan's actions strangely and began to wonder whether Pang Xiaonan knew whether he could recognize the old ginseng. He saw Pang Xiaonan with his eyes closed and his brows frowned slightly, as if he was thinking about something.
About seven or eight seconds later, Pang Xiaonan opened his eyes, and he smiled and said to the shopkeeper: "Okay, boss, you can put this ginseng into the counter."
The shopkeeper frowned and said in surprise: "Little brother, are you not interested in my old ginseng?"
Pang Xiaonan touched his nose and said, "Boss, I am very interested in you, the old ginseng, but it is not worth the price you mentioned."
"Oh?" The shopkeeper was very dissatisfied with what Pang Xiaonan said. He was full of confidence in his medicinal herbs. "Little brother, you can't talk nonsense. Do you know the market? Ten years ago, a savage ginseng that had reached a year of one hundred years was priced between ten thousand. If an emergency occurs, it is possible that such a treasure of heaven and earth can be sold for more than 5 million yuan. Now 10 years have passed, and the market of ginseng is no longer the same."
Pang Xiaonan smiled but said nothing, turned around and was about to leave. The shopkeeper grabbed him and said, "I'll tell you a story, don't say I'm talking nonsense." The shopkeeper has been immersed in the medicinal materials industry for many days, so naturally he has a way to convince these people who he saw that they were real customers. He didn't catch a cold from Pang Xiaonan, but he knew that the Councillor Wang around Pang Xiaonan must be a wealthy person. Maybe he was a real and powerful boss who came to the rare medicinal materials in the black market. What he wanted to convince was Pang Xiaonan who helped Councillor Wang identify medicinal materials.
Pang Xiaonan stopped, made a call, and said, "You said."
"I have a friend who is a medical consultant in the army. He once helped someone identify an old ginseng," a smug smile appeared on the shopkeeper's face. Many people believed it. And this was true. "That old ginseng is said to be 120 years old, and the seller offered 20 million yuan. What do you think the result?"
"20 million?" Peng Yuyan shouted first, "Is this a robbery? What medicinal materials are worth 20 million. It's almost the same for people to become immortals after taking this stick."
Pang Xiaonan held Peng Yuyan down and made a "shhh" gesture.
The shopkeeper glanced at Peng Yuyan, ignored him, and continued, "My friend later identified the results. This ginseng is indeed an old ginseng that has been in 120 years old, but he did not agree to the 20 million offer, and finally got a price that both parties were satisfied with."
Pang Xiaonan continued to smile and said nothing, and there was no surprise. Seeing that his preparation did not arouse Pang Xiaonan's reaction, the shopkeeper had to continue telling the story, "In the end, this ginseng was sold for 12 million yuan. So, although my ginseng is not 120 years old, with its nearly a hundred years of ginseng, the price of 3 million yuan is not too much, right?"
Pang Xiaonan nodded and echoed the shopkeeper: "If your old ginseng tree is indeed nearly a hundred years old, the price of 3 million is not an exaggeration, but very cheap."
"Do you suspect that my old ginseng tree is not as old as 100 years old?" The shopkeeper was angry. He knew the background of his goods, so how could he tolerate others tampering with them at will.
"No, no, no, listen to me," Pang Xiaonan shook his head and explained slowly, "Look, 12 million yuan of participation in 120 years is sold, which means an average of 100,000 yuan of participation in one year. But the account is not calculated like this. The later, the price of each year will increase by a factor of a varied increase. Otherwise, your nearly 10 million yuan old ginseng will cost eight or nine million yuan, right?"
The shopkeeper nodded and said seriously, "Yes, the more the price of ginseng goes, the value added every year is not the price of the previous year as a reference, but the more valuable it goes, the more it goes. Sometimes it will be tens or millions of dollars more than a year." The shopkeeper suddenly felt that Pang Xiaonan still knew what he was doing, so he played it freely according to Pang Xiaonan's intention.
Pang Xiaonan spread his hands exaggeratedly, "Okay, so you offered 3 million yuan, which means that the century-old ginseng you mentioned is actually not worth that much money!"
The shopkeeper's face turned dark and purple, and finally got angry: "You are simply unreasonable. I offer 3 million yuan. It's not that the century-old old mountain ginseng is not enough, but just to give you some benefits. If I didn't think you think you are good-looking, I would definitely not sell this old mountain ginseng without 5 million yuan!" The more I talked about it, the shopkeeper's momentum seemed to be weaker and weaker.
Pang Xiaonan shook his head and said, "Shopkeeper, how did I say that your old ginseng is not in sufficient age?"
"Then what do you mean!" The shopkeeper was already angry. Pang Xiaonan, who seemed to be a poor student, actually discussed with him this treasure worth millions of dollars. Why is he worth!
"What I mean is that you, the old ginseng tree, is not wild." Pang Xiaonan explained lightly, with no turbulence on his face, but he looked confident.
"You, you..." The shopkeeper seemed a little speechless. Someone questioned that his ginseng was not wild, and his tone became fierce. "Boy, you said that my old ginseng is not wild. If you tell me the truth, I can give it to you for free!" But after speaking, his voice became much smaller.
Mr. Wang, who had been watching the battle, couldn't help but smile. It seemed that Pang Xiaonan had indeed seized some of the handles of the shopkeeper, otherwise he would not have been so arrogant. Mr. Wang crossed his hands in front of his chest with interest and watched Pang Xiaonan play quietly.
Pang Xiaonan walked slowly to the counter where wild ginseng was placed, and supported the counter with one hand and pointed at the old ginseng with the other hand and said, "This ginseng was indeed wild a few years ago, but it was dug out and then artificially planted into the deep mountains for cultivation, so it can only be said to be semi-wild."
Pang Xiaonan raised his eyebrows, blinked his eyes, and said, "Just like the native chickens we are talking about now, chickens are a breed of native chickens, but after being stocked for a period of time, they are artificially fed and fed, and they grow up quickly and sell them. They are called native chickens to the outside world, one truth!"
Peng Yuyan nodded and said, "Indeed, it is basically impossible to eat real local chicken now. Last time I went to the mountains to buy local chickens, the farmers were unwilling to sell them, saying that they would keep them for themselves. If the real wild ginseng is dug up, I am afraid they would keep them for nourishing themselves."
The shopkeeper's face changed and he still argued: "Hmph, do you say what you say is what? My tree is a pure wild ginseng. It has been growing in the mountains for nearly a hundred years before it was dug out. What you analyzed are all fallacies!"
Pang Xiaonan walked to the shopkeeper, smiled and hugged his shoulder, and said, "Shopkeeper, if I don't have some real skills, I dare not talk nonsense with you. I bought it without selling essence. But you were wrong today. If I wasn't trapping you, I really smelled the ingredients of your old ginseng. Why do you have to do it? If you offer a price of 3 million and wait for a sucker who doesn't know the goods, it's better to trade with us people who know the goods. Doing business is very important."
"You smell it..." Although the shopkeeper was unwilling to accept it, his mouth was obviously loose. "How did you smell it? You are not a dog. Even if you are a dog, you can't tell the quality of the medicinal materials by smelling it, right?"
"Hey, how can you compare the person who buys your things to a dog?" Pang Xiaonan lost his scruples and continued to break the shopkeeper's defense. "I'm not afraid to tell you that the medicinal materials are wild and artificially grown. I know at the first time that I smell it. If your ginseng is 100% wild, it doesn't smell like this! It obviously has some impurities on it, which I can't tell you very clearly. In short, you should know in your heart that it's not interesting to always pretend to us. We really want to buy this old ginseng. In doing business, it's not a win-win situation for everyone to benefit?"
Pang Xiaonan took the opportunity to give the shopkeeper a glamorous look, which made the shopkeeper get goose bumps. It wasn't that Pang Xiaonan was so disgusting, it was indeed what Pang Xiaonan said. This old mountain ginseng is not very different from what Pang Xiaonan said, and it is indeed not that the old mountain ginseng I dug recently. When he collected it, the seller told him the basic situation.
"Then say," the shopkeeper subconsciously pushed Pang Xiaonan away, "How much money are you willing to pay!" The shopkeeper threw the ball to Pang Xiaonan. Anyway, this guy has clear doors. If the price he opens is right, he will sell it. If the price he opens is lower than his expectations, he will not sell it. It's a very simple truth.
"1 million!" Pang Xiaonan raised a finger and stared at the shopkeeper with his eyes straight.
"You...you dream!" The shopkeeper's chubby face showed a ferocious expression because he was angry. It was obvious that he had not seen such an unreasonable customer for so long. He picked up the white porcelain plate with old ginseng and locked it into the counter.
"Boss," Pang Xiaonan grabbed the shopkeeper and said with a smile, "Don't be anxious first. I'll tell you, if you sell it to me for 1 million, you can still make hundreds of thousands. If you don't sell it to me, you will not know when you will be sold here. You also know that ginseng is a high price when it is urgent. It's not easy to touch a seller."
The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment. Pang Xiaonan said right, "How do you know I can't sell it? Also, how do you know that you can make hundreds of thousands of dollars by selling you 1 million? Do you know my purchase price?" Although the shopkeeper was disgusted with Pang Xiaonan's bargaining method, Pang Xiaonan's judgment was unexpectedly accurate.
"If I guess correctly, you won't receive this old ginseng for more than 700,000 yuan!" Pang Xiaonan said firmly. In fact, he was just guessing. Sometimes luck is very important to collect medicinal materials, but if you collect an old ginseng, ordinary second-hand dealers dare not throw a sky-high price. If you throw it into your hands, the loss will be huge.
The shopkeeper gave the example of selling old mountain ginseng. After all, it is an example and cannot be taken to the market. This is the difference between top-level treasures and ordinary treasures. Those that can be circulated on the market are ordinary treasures. Once the top-level treasures appear, there will be top buyers to consult. They will never lie quietly here like this old mountain ginseng. I don’t know how many years have passed.
So Pang Xiaonan boldly estimated that the shopkeeper's collection of the old mountain ginseng would definitely not exceed 1 million. You should know that if you collect a single old mountain ginseng for hundreds of thousands of yuan, if you can't sell it, it will become a big problem. If the storage is not properly preserved, the medicinal materials will be eroded and the book will not be collected in the end.
Pang Xiaonan grasped this characteristic of medicinal materials and boldly bargained with the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, then said tactfully: "Even if I get 700,000 yuan, I won't lose money if I sell 1 million yuan, right?"
"No loss, no loss," Pang Xiaonan saw that he guessed, and smiled, "It's time to do business, it's time to cook again and again. We can buy any good medicinal materials from next time. Also, if you don't understand the real situation of medicinal materials in the future, I can help you." After that, Pang Xiaonan sincerely took out his mobile phone, opened Feixia, and showed the shopkeeper his electronic wallet.
The shopkeeper opened his eyes wide, and Pang Xiaonan's electronic wallet showed more than 1 million. At first, the shopkeeper thought Pang Xiaonan was just a follower, but it turned out that this was the real owner. Pang Xiaonan said: "How is it, boss, we are really doing business with you, so don't hesitate."
The shopkeeper's right hand was on the countertop, and several fingers were tapping the countertop alternately. He was thinking about Pang Xiaonan's conditions. Indeed, if he sold this old ginseng for 1 million, the profit would not be great. Just as Pang Xiaonan said, he earned 700,000 yuan, and only earned 300,000 yuan. He also spent his store rent, time cost, capital and interest, etc. in the middle, and basically he didn't make any profit.
However, if you don’t sell it, you will be afraid that you will lose a lot after you have been stocked for a long time. It’s not that there is no customer who has paid 3 million yuan. It’s really difficult to wait. I’m afraid that I can’t wait, so I have to use the Laoshan ginseng to stew the soup for tonic. The shopkeeper is not short of money, but he thinks he hasn’t reached that level yet when he takes 1 million yuan for tonic.
What moved the shopkeeper the most were the conditions proposed by Pang Xiaonan later, such as a long-term cooperation customer and Pang Xiaonan's superb judgment skills.
When the shopkeeper went to collect this old ginseng, if the seller had not been honest, he said that this old ginseng was not 100% wild, and with his own skills, he would not be able to distinguish it at all, and he would not dare to buy it at that price. If he had Pang Xiaonan's help in the future, he would be inaccurate when he could not judge it correctly, as long as he asked Pang Xiaonan to come over, he would have a great grasp.
After more than ten seconds, the shopkeeper finally made up his mind and extended his right hand to Pang Xiaonan, "Okay, deal!"
Pang Xiaonan also stretched out his right hand, smiled and clasped with the shopkeeper, "Do it!"
Afterwards, Pang Xiaonan added the shopkeeper's Feifu and immediately transferred 1 million yuan. The shopkeeper took out an exquisite satin-wrapped wooden box from the backstage, carefully put the old mountain ginseng into the wooden box, and handed it to Pang Xiaonan.
The shopkeeper held Pang Xiaonan's hand in his right hand and patted Pang Xiaonan's shoulder with his left hand, and sighed: "Little brother, you are so capable. It's the first time I've done such a loss-making business, but I have to admire you. Your judgment of medicinal materials is really accurate. Just by just smelling it, you know that it's not pure wild. I will rely more on you in my business in the future."
"Hehe, it's easy to say," Pang Xiaonan pointed to the Councillor Wang next to him, "Actually, we came here today to find some tonics for him, but I like you, the old ginseng. If you have other good medicinal herbs in the future, he will be the one who is not short of money!"
The shopkeeper's eyes flashed, and then he smiled: "That's natural. We will be old friends in the future. If you have good things, we will definitely notify you first." The shopkeeper actually always looked forward to the financial resources of Councillor Wang. Pang Xiaonan, a follower, could easily take out 1 million. Then Councillor Wang was naturally even more rich. With these old men, he would be even more scruples when purchasing medicinal materials in the future.
Peng Yuyan raised his hand and looked at his watch, and said to Pang Xiaonan: "The stone gambling conference is about to begin, let's go."
"So you are also here to attend the stone gambling conference?" The shopkeeper was surprised. "In addition to checking the shop today, I will mainly attend the stone gambling conference. You can go first, I will clean up the store and then come."
Three people left the shop, and Congressman Wang asked Pang Xiaonan curiously: "Where did you get so much money?"
Pang Xiaonan's mysterious smile: "If there are snakes, roads, rats, roads, so I naturally have my own way."
Member Wang laughed: "Okay, since you don't say it, I won't ask anymore, but you can always tell me why you judge that the old ginseng is not pure wild, can you just smell it like that?"
Pang Xiaonan touched his nose and said, "My nose is not a smell. I am transmitting the breath of the old ginseng into my brain and then conducting analysis. You can treat my brain as a beaker or chromatograph in the laboratory, etc. I can distinguish the specific components of the old ginseng." In fact, Pang Xiaonan judges the growth environment and year of the old ginseng by analyzing the spiritual power level of ginseng. If it is really a wild old ginseng for 100 years, its spiritual power will not be as weak as the spiritual power Pang Xiaonan just absorbed.
Member Wang nodded. He understood Pang Xiaonan's explanation a little, pointed at Pang Xiaonan's head and said, "Then you are a chemical head, it's more accurate than experimental instruments!"
Peng Yuyan took Pang Xiaonan and Mr. Wang to the jade area on the second floor of the underground, and passed many jewelry stores. Pang Xiaonan was secretly surprised when he saw it. He pointed to a crown and asked Peng Yuyan: "Don't tell me, there are royal goods transactions from various countries in this black market."
Peng Yuyan smiled and said, "What's so strange about this? The crown looks like it was worn by the queen of a small country, and there are not many gems on it. Crowns like this are not very valuable. If you find the crown of our China country, it will be enough to surprise you, but those things will not be sold here publicly, or you rarely have the chance to see them."
"Of course it's hard to see," Pang Xiaonan said with a lip slight, "There are only a few crowns in China, and many of them are missing. What has been passed down is even more precious."
