"Do you know how to raise Gu?" Chen Yu asked half-jokingly.
"Pfft, do you think we all know how to raise gu?" Fan Zhen burst into laughter.
"Haha, I'm just curious." Chen Yu said with a smile.
"I don't know. We are actually just like ordinary people, but my grandfather said that my ancestors did understand these things." Fan Zhen said seriously: "It's just that it has been lost."
"So that's it." Chen Yu nodded, stepped on the accelerator and rushed towards the Chinese Medicine Street.
He couldn't figure out Fan Zhen's origin for the time being, and he didn't know if she was related to Wu Ming, but after chatting with her, Chen Yu felt that her appearance should be a coincidence.
But these are not important. Even if she is sent by Wu Ming, it doesn't matter. At the moment, the Chinese Medicine Street is more attractive to Chen Yu.
When the Chinese Medicine Street arrived, Chen Yu parked the car outside, and then walked to the Chinese Medicine Street with Fan Zhen.
This is a narrow street, with shops and street stalls on both sides. The Chinese Medicine Street here attracts a lot of people with its gimmick of original Chinese medicine.
It was already dark when the two came here, and the street lights on both sides were on. As soon as they stepped into the threshold of the Chinese Medicine Street, five or six locals rushed up.
"Friend, do you want some medicine?"
"Come to us, everything is picked from deep mountains and old forests, including Ganoderma lucidum and ginseng. It's authentic."
"Come to my house. My house is a time-honored brand. All the medicines are collected from farmers. They are absolutely original."
"I'm sorry, this is my friend. I brought him to see him." Fan Zhen said in the local dialect.
These people heard that Fan Zhen's tone sounded like a local one, so they left angrily.
"Are these drug dealers?" Chen Yu asked.
"No, scalpers." Fan Zhen said with a smile: "They will take you to some remote stores, where the medicines are either artificially bred or fake, and they are all at sky-high prices."
"The phenomenon of robbing customers is very serious." Chen Yu smiled. If these people really took him away, it was not certain who would kill whom.
"There's nothing we can do. It's a small place and the supervision is not in place." Fan Zhen said helplessly: "Sooner or later, this popularity will be lost."
Chen Yu smiled and began to look at the Chinese medicine on both sides.
There are shops on both sides, as well as medicinal farmers setting up street stalls. Because Wangchuan is surrounded by deep mountains, the climate is suitable and there are few people, so some precious medicinal materials can be found here.
Chen Yu took a quick look and found that most of the medicines on street stalls and shops were artificially raised, and there were not many truly pure and original Chinese patent medicines.
Even if there are, they are just some Chinese patent medicines with ordinary texture and average age and quality.
Chen Yu couldn't help but shook his head secretly. He originally wanted to meet some good things here, but he didn't expect to encounter loneliness here. It seems that the attractions are really unbelievable.
"Are you a Chinese medicine practitioner?" Seeing Chen Yu carefully observing the carpets on both sides, Fan Zhen couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Yes." Chen Yu smiled slightly and said, "But the Chinese medicine in these places is not worth mentioning. Most of them are grown, or simply fake. Even if they are real, the quality is really average."
"Hey, look, this ginseng tree is quite big." Fan Zhen saw a ginseng tree displayed on a street stall.
This ginseng is large in size and bright in color. The stall owner is an old farmer who looks very simple.
"Girl, are you looking for medicine? You have such good taste. This ginseng is a serious wild ginseng. It must be at least hundreds of years old. I dug it from the mountain behind my house." When the old man saw the person, he said
He couldn't help but feel refreshed and introduced it enthusiastically.
"Look at the color, look at the texture, no matter how you look at it, it's top quality. I just set up the stall, and you really caught up with me."
"Chen Yu, you look good?" Fan Zhen couldn't help but turned her head towards Chen Yu.
"It's indeed very good. The appearance, quality, and texture are all in line with the quality of wild ginseng. This is indeed wild ginseng." Chen Yu smiled slightly: "Old man, how much does it cost?"
"One hundred thousand." The old man directly shouted the price: "If this thing is going to be auctioned, it will cost at least five hundred thousand."
"Then if you sell us 100,000 yuan, it's for charity?" Chen Yu smiled.
"I'm old and can't run anymore, so I have to give you a discount. One hundred thousand is already very cheap. Do you want it? Someone will buy it right away." The old man said.
"What a big wild ginseng, how much do I want for it?" At this moment, a gangster with tattoos squeezed over.
"One hundred thousand." The old man still said the price.
"Okay, I want it, transfer money." The gangster didn't hesitate at all, he took out the card and wanted to swipe it.
"Do you want me to sell it to this friend?" The old man looked at Chen Yu and Fan Zhen.
"Then you sell it to him. Let's go to the front and take a look." Chen Yu smiled, and he pulled Fan Zhen away.
You want to defraud money with this kind of low-level subterfuge? You are really crazy about money.
As soon as Chen Yu left, the expressions of the old man and the gangster changed. Chen Yu was not following the routine.
"Is there something wrong with Chen Yu's wild ginseng?" Fan Zhen asked.
"No problem, it's real, and it's not artificially cultivated. It's just ten years old at most, and the appearance has been processed, so it looks very good. This kind of medicine costs tens of yuan per kilogram in the traditional Chinese medicine market." Chen Yu said.
"So that's it, there are really more and more tricks nowadays." Fan Zhen suddenly realized: "I, a local, almost got deceived."
"Ha, it's nothing. Every other line is like a mountain, and there are so many tricks in it such as Chinese medicine and jade." Chen Yu said with a smile.
"Brother, wait a minute, brother." At this moment, a shouting voice came from behind.
Chen Yu turned around and saw that the gangster who was shouting the price with him just now was following him again.
"Is something wrong?" Chen Yu turned around and asked.
"Friend, you're from out of town. I'm in the Chinese medicine business. Come and have a look. I guarantee you won't regret it." The gangster took out his business card: "Li Dashan."
"No need, I just looked around and there was nothing interesting." Chen Yu shook his head: "The Chinese Medicine Street really doesn't live up to its name."
"No, brother, the things that are put on the surface in this kind of scenic spot are definitely not good. After all, they are all trying to fool people who don't know how to do it." Li Dashan chuckled: "Brother, if you know what you do, it won't work here. Go to me.
Go to the warehouse, I guarantee you won’t be disappointed.”
"Seriously?" Chen Yu flipped through the business card and felt that this guy looked like a drug dealer, and he couldn't resist the temptation of top-notch Chinese medicine.
"Of course, let's go." Li Dashan pulled Chen Yu and left.
This guy really didn't lie. It is a rare Chinese medicine store that specializes in selling precious medicinal materials. There is also a large warehouse behind it, and the quality of the medicinal materials in it is much better than that in the town.
Chen Yu first walked around his store, and this guy also strongly recommended his store's treasures, a piece of purple ganoderma and thousand-year-old mountain ginseng.
But of course his stuff is not as good as what he said, and Chen Yu has a sharp eye, and he can always hit the nail on the head when it comes to these medicines.
After recommending for a long time, this guy was a little thirsty. He looked at Chen Yu and said: "Brother, I think you are a good person. Come on, follow me to the warehouse. If you see good things, you can just ask for the price."
"It should have been like this a long time ago." Chen Yu smiled slightly and followed Li Dashan to his warehouse.
When he arrived at the warehouse, Chen Yu's eyes lit up. There were indeed a lot of good things in there.
"How do you sell this Ganoderma lucidum?" Chen Yu pointed at a Ganoderma lucidum on the medicine shelf. This Ganoderma lucidum has been dried and has a green layer on the surface. In terms of Ganoderma lucidum grade, it belongs to Qingping Ganoderma lucidum and is very precious.
"Know the goods, I collected this Ganoderma lucidum from the mountains..." Li Dashan extended his thumb and began to introduce.
"Just tell me how much it is." Chen Yu smiled.
"One million." Li Dashan gritted his teeth and spit out a price.
"Deal." Chen Yu nodded: "I also want this piece of ambergris, these few kilograms of cordyceps, and these pieces of Polygonum multiflorum."
Li Dashan was stunned. Chen Yu pointed out five or six cabinets on the medicine shelf. The things in them were all treasures.
No one knows how precious these medicines are better than Li Dashan, but when he collects the medicines, he always brings experts and experienced farmers with him to identify them several times before he dares to take action.
But Chen Yu could tell that these medicines were good medicines just by looking at them without even putting his hands on them, which made him feel a little incredible.
"Brother, these are the treasures of my store." Li Dashan is a medicine maker, and he was a little reluctant to part with these things after they were sold.
"The treasure of the store needs to be sold." Chen Yu smiled and said: "Brother, I am a traditional Chinese medicine doctor. These medicines can have the greatest effect in my hands. You can pay whatever price you want."
"These things you want...this number." Li Dashan stretched out a finger.
"You want 100 million?" Chen Yu instantly understood what this guy meant.
