Li Xiaoqiao could tell that he was about to be in trouble, so how could Li Ruhai not know it?
"Dad! Mom..." Li Ruhai took a few steps back and saw his parents rushing toward him fiercely. Li Ruhai shouted loudly, trying to awaken his father's love and mother's love. But when he saw Li Dayong, Jin Xiaomei's eyes became more fierce, and Li Ruhai turned around and ran away.
The young man has good legs and feet. Li Dayong and Jin Xiaomei really can't catch up with him.
But at this moment, Li Baoyu ran out of Zhao's courtyard and came first, knocking Li Ruhai to the ground.
The five members of Lao Li's family were finally reunited today. But seeing his younger brother being pinned to the ground by his father, mother, and eldest brother, Li Xiaoqiao subconsciously took two steps back, as if she was afraid of splattering her own blood.
"Killing! Help! Killing... um..." Li Ruhai shouted for help at the top of his lungs, but Jin Xiaomei covered his mouth. Immediately afterwards, Li Dayong grabbed his wrists, and Li Baoyu grabbed the two trousers of Li Ruhai's tunic pants.
The two men lifted Li Ruhai up.
It was like killing a pig, and the dogs in the Zhao and Li courtyards kept barking.
After Li Ruhai was arrested and returned home, Li Dayong and Li Baoyu took off his cotton-padded jacket and Chinese tunic suit. Then they heard a "pop-pop" sound and Li Dayong removed the triangle pulley.
Li Ruhai howled and cried, causing the dogs outside to howl.
At this time, Zhao Youcai, Zhao Weipeng and others were eating stir-fried vegetables, dumplings, and drinking Xifeng wine in the Zhao family's house.
Hearing the fierce barking of dogs outside, Zhao Weipeng was a little curious, but when he asked, Zhao Youcai quickly changed the subject and talked about Northeastern specialties.
Speaking of Northeastern specialties, we have to talk about the Three Treasures of the Northeast.
In terms of the Three Treasures of the Northeast, there are the New Three Treasures and the Old Three Treasures. The New Three Treasures are ginseng, mink skin, and deer antlers, all of which are valuable.
The old three treasures are ginseng, mink and uraca. Urulaca is also called mulberry grass, and Northeastern people use it to weave straw sandals.
In the first part of "Liu Laogen", Yaoxihezi received such straw sandals when he was helping the villa collect second-hand goods. At that time, Yaoxihezi was talking about a pair of them.
Broken straw sandals are worthless, but they are among the Three Treasures because people in the past were poor and stuffed the grass into their shoes to make insoles in winter. This is just like what Zhao Jun told Zhao Weipeng that day that rural people used corn leaves as insoles.
It's to keep warm.
In the past, there were many poor people, and no one could do without this urala grass, so it was listed among the three treasures.
When talking about the Three Treasures, a group of people started talking about deer antlers. From deer antlers, they also talked about medicinal deer.
Because he knew nothing about these, Zhao Weipeng was very curious. After hearing about the medicinal deer technique, Zhao Weipeng asked in surprise: "Since the medicinal beans are highly poisonous, can people still eat the deer that were killed by it?"
"
"It's basically fine." Zhao Youcai said with a smile, "The medicine will have no effect if it gets wet."
"How about wrapping it in wax pills?" At this time, Ma Dafu answered: "It rains continuously in the mountains and brings back the tide, so I'm afraid it will get wet."
"Ah..." After hearing what the two said, Zhao Weipeng felt relieved. Remembering that Zhao Youcai said that he would give him deer, gun and wine, Zhao Weipeng looked forward to it very much.
Everyone raised their glasses, drank the wine in one gulp, and then served their meals. Don't drink too much at lunch, and drink well in the evening.
After putting down the cup, Zhao Weipeng took the rice that Zhao Jun served him. But Boss Zhao was not in a hurry to pick up the food, but asked Zhao Youcai: "Brother, can you handle that kind of wild ginseng?
of"
When Zhao Youcai heard this, his little eyes blinked.
Zhao Youcai didn't dare to say anything until now, but this year he and Zhao Jun brought out a bunch of wild ginseng, and there were more than one seedling.
But the old village was a secret of the Zhao family, and Zhao Youcai would not tell it even if he drank, so he said to Zhao Weipeng: "There must be it. In our family area, there are eight participating gangs, eight out of ten."
Not to mention the village."
At this point, Zhao Youcai took a mouthful of pickled cabbage, sucked it into his mouth, and then said vaguely: "This is the Shen Gang, and there are quite a few people who go to herd the mountains."
With that said, Zhao Youcai pointed at Zhao Jun with his chopsticks, and then said to Zhao Weipeng: "Last year, your eldest nephew and his younger brothers went up the mountain to fight siege and even carried a few seedlings and sticks along the way. It's not enough to be considered equal."
"Ouch!" Zhao Weipeng looked at Zhao Jun in surprise and said, "You can do that again?"
Zhao Jun smiled faintly when he heard this, but at this moment Jie Chen said for his brother Jun: "Uncle Zhao, our brother Jun is so powerful. Kaichun'er's mallet just hit the seedlings, and my brother Jun's eyes opened when he got there."
"I'm just going to be blind." Zhao Jun smiled, patted the minister, and said, "How can it be so mysterious?"
Then, Zhao Jun looked at Zhao Weipeng and said with a smile: "Last year, there was also a mountain of wealth. There were a few seedlings of sticks there, but none of them were of high quality."
Indeed, the wild ginseng that Zhao Jun led Li Baoyu, Zhang Yuanmin and others carried out, even if it was fourth-grade or fifth-grade leaves, could not be compared.
These days, to qualify for the Lun class, the price must be in excellent condition, and the price can reach 5,000 yuan.
"Brother." Zhao Youcai asked Zhao Weipeng, "You are asking, do you want to give it away?"
The value of wild ginseng depends on appearance, not weight.
Some people say: Seven taels is a ginseng, and eight taels is a treasure.
This is all one-sided!
Wild ginseng is different from ginseng. The requirements for the growth environment of wild ginseng are extremely high. There are only three countries in the world where wild ginseng is found, namely the three countries of Huaxia, Luosha and Beibang where Changbai Mountain is located.
If the orange grows in Huainan, it becomes orange; if the orange grows in the north of Huaihe, it becomes orange.
Not to mention that there are differences in the wild ginseng produced in these three countries, there are good and bad wild ginseng produced in the same forest area.
If there is black soil on this mountain, good wild ginseng will definitely not grow. However, if the wild ginseng grows on black soil, the body will be white and watery, and the shape will not be good, so it will never be able to grow ginseng of the highest quality.
If the mountain has loess soil with stones, the appearance and quality of the wild ginseng extracted from it will be much better than the wild ginseng produced from the black soil. The same level of sticks are also produced from this kind of land.
But as long as it is wild ginseng, it is a great tonic, and it is enough for your own home.
So when Zhao Weipeng said he wanted ginseng, Zhao Youcai thought he wanted to give it as a gift.
"Let me come here, I have a friend who asked me to ask him." Zhao Weipeng said: "He said he wanted to buy it back and keep it."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! At this point, Zhao Weipeng looked up at the crowd and said, "I asked him what he was doing with that thing, but he said I didn't understand."
Zhao Weipeng, Zhao Youcai and others all took Zhao Weipeng's words as a joke and told Zhao Weipeng that wild ginseng has similar medicinal value.
But Zhao Jun didn't think so. He knew that Zhao Weipeng's friend was definitely not an ordinary person.
In this world, there are people who collect antiques, there are people who collect calligraphy and paintings, and there are people who collect wild ginseng.
Zhao Jun was a ginseng maker in his previous life, so he knew that all those who collected wild ginseng were either rich or noble, and all had excellent insights.
"Nephew!" At this time, Zhao Weipeng smiled at Zhao Jun and said: "Next year, if you go up the mountain again, you can get that good ginseng, and you can sell it to my friend. He has money, and he will definitely not lose you."
"Okay, uncle." Zhao Jun agreed with a smile. Over there, Zhao Youcai and the others chatted about the local ginseng gangs, which ginseng gang leader was capable, and which ginseng gang had carried out large goods.
"Actually, the three white fingers are quite powerful." Zhao Youcai suddenly mentioned a person and said: "He doesn't associate with those ginseng gangs. When he goes to the mountains, he takes his family with him. He takes his wife, son, and daughter-in-law with him.
It’s okay for them to be a family.”
Hearing Zhao Youcai mention the three white fingers, Zhao Jun thought of the Miao conjoined mallet again. At this time, Lin Xiangshun continued Zhao Youcai's words and said: "If we want to gouge out the eyes here, it would have to be Lao Pang, the blind man. I listen.
They muttered, and the old man released a stick, and saw that there was a small stick under the red hammer of the stick. After that, Blind Pang asked his apprentice or something to line up in the direction pointed by the stick. After a while, four sprouts appeared.
Come and taste the leaves."
"So awesome!" When Zhao Weipeng exclaimed, Jie Chen glanced at Zhao Jun inadvertently, but when he was about to speak, he was kicked by Zhao Jun under the table.
The "Xiao Ting" in Lin Xiangshun's words was called Cross Sea in Fangshan Xing. Zhao Jun would also look at that, but he didn't want his ministers to tell him about it.
Zhao Jun was not afraid that anyone would know, he just thought that this kind of thing was not worth showing off.
In the land of China, there are crouching tigers, hidden dragons, and capable people emerge in large numbers.
Zhao Jun traveled back and forth between the two countries in his previous life and met many powerful people.
Zhao Jun clearly remembered that it was in 1999 when he was doing business in Rakshasa.
Chinese people are hard-working and willing to work, and will go wherever they can make money. At that time, there were many Chinese people in Rakshasa who went to plow wild ginseng. Some of these people could not return home, so they established ginseng gangs in the local area.
Those participating in the gang carried the mallets and gave them to Zhao Jun and others.
They are all in this business. The more you deal with people, the less trust you have and the more tricks you will have. Sometimes if you are not careful, you can easily be deceived. Moreover, this business is very similar to an antique shop. You can't find out if you cheat.
Back account.
To put it bluntly in this business, the same thing applies to buying and selling: wild ginseng depends on its appearance.
But the word "quality" is sometimes a matter of benevolence and wisdom. The quality is good, but 30,000 is what it is, and 300,000 is what it is.
At this time, it all depends on one's ability. When it comes to money, when it comes to being more serious, it all depends on whether the person can be more accurate.
Zhao Jun remembers that one of the leaders of the ginseng gang took out a stick to show to several of their bosses. The stick weighed two to four and was definitely a bargain, but the stick cost three hundred thousand dollars.
Three hundred thousand in 1999 is not a small number.
As for the psychological price of bosses like Zhao Jun, none of them exceeds 150,000.
I was biting my head very hard at that time, so I never made a deal.
There is no righteousness in buying and selling.
Although the sale was not completed, it was good to come out and take a look at the goods. But just as the show was about to end, another boss came to collect the ginseng.
The boss looked like a layman at first glance, but he brought a young man with him, and that young man is still fresh in Zhao Jun's memory.
At that time, he seemed to be about 20 years old, and he was extremely handsome. If it weren't for his shabby clothes, Zhao Jun would have regarded him as a noble son.
It was this young man who went over to take a look at the seedling ginseng, then turned around and whispered a few words into the boss's ear. Then the boss directly offered the ginseng head a flat price of 240,000.
Everyone else present at the time, including the chief executive, was stunned, but then the deal was sold for 240,000 yuan.
Later, Zhao Jun heard that the 240,000 ginseng seedlings were shipped back to China, and the price had increased tenfold, and they were sold for a sky-high price of 2.4 million.
Moreover, it was still sold to a ginseng dealer.
It was 1999, and one seedling of wild ginseng cost 2.4 million, which was already more than half of Zhao Jun's net worth.
A year later, by chance, Zhao Jun met the young man again when he was hiking in the virgin forests of the Far East.
That day, Zhao Jun and his companions placed three seedling sticks by a riverside, and they left happily.
But when the two were preparing to cook, they found that the salt bags on their bodies were missing.
It would be impossible without salt. When Zhao Jun and his companions returned to search, Zhao Jun saw the young man again by the riverside where they had released ginseng.
The young man must have been hiding in secret to observe Zhao Jun and the others carrying the ginseng. After Zhao Jun and the others left, the young man found all the nests where Zhao Jun and the others were carrying the ginseng. Then they calculated based on the position where they were carrying the ginseng.
Finally, I concluded that there must be large goods along the river.
Zhao Jun and the others hid aside and watched helplessly as the young man carried out a seedling with four leaves and a seedling with five leaves.
Who could bear this? Zhao Jun and his companions came up to argue with them, and started fighting whenever they disagreed. As a result, the young man had skills on his hands, and Zhao Jun suffered a loss.
He is very capable, but he was forced into this deep mountain and old forest, and he had nothing to eat.
Zhao Jun treated the young man to a meal of rice porridge mixed with salt. The young man expressed his gratitude for the meal and taught Zhao Jun and others some "superficial" knowledge.
The young man taught Zhao Jun the art of searching for ginseng across the sea. This was a great skill for Zhao Jun, but to others it was just superficial.
Because Zhao Jun accidentally heard the young man say that ginseng not only has the ability to cross the sea, but also has the tongue. But what exactly the tongue is, the young man did not say.
Twenty years have passed by in a flash, which is strange to say.
Before Zhao Jun was reborn, he was in poverty, so he never thought about going up the mountain to carry ginseng. But he went up the mountain many times and found nothing. On the contrary, several old women in the village could look at the red hammer when they went up the mountain to pick up soft dates.
This corresponds to the saying in Fangshan Xing: If you are not blessed, you will not see wild ginseng.
After being reborn, Zhao Jun felt that he was very blessed. Now he knew the directions of several old villages. Among them, the old village on the door frame of Widow Wang was able to help Blind Pang and his family buy houses in Zhao Jun's previous life. It can also help him in this life.
Make a fortune.
There is also Bai Sanzhi's conjoined Miao ginseng mallet. Zhao Jun kindly decided to help Bai Sanzhi escape the tragedy of family destruction, so he must get the Miao ginseng out before Bai Sanzhi.
But a single thread cannot make a thread, and a single tree cannot make a forest.
It is not impossible for one or two people to do the work of clearing mountains, but the efficiency is too slow.
So Zhao Jun also thought that if it didn't work out, he would wait until Ma Ling came over next year, follow the example of the three white fingers, and take his father, mother, and daughter-in-law up the mountain.
"Son!" Just as he was about to take her up the mountain, Wang Meilan came over by herself. When she came to this room, she lowered her head and whispered in Zhao Jun's ear: "Go to that courtyard and take a look. Your uncle and the others are almost here.
Invite them to come over for dinner."
What happened just now was sudden. Li Dayong's family of three rushed out before finishing their meal. Half an hour had passed. If the beating had continued, Li Ruhai would have been dead.
Wang Meilan guessed that either Li Dayong and his wife were providing ideological education to Li Ruhai, or the family was too embarrassed to come.
Therefore, Wang Meilan sent Zhao Jun over to say hello.
Anyway, Zhao Jun finished eating, so he got up, put on his cotton-padded jacket, went out, climbed over the wall to the west courtyard, and when he passed by the east window, he looked inside and saw Li Ruhai kneeling on the ground.
In front of him, Li Dayong and Jin Xiaomei were sitting on either side of the kang table, probably scolding Li Ruhai.
Seeing this, Zhao Jun did not stop in front of Li's house, but went around to the back of the house to see Hua Niuniu.
