Huang Haizhen is a real person, even Zhao Jun can't do it.
Seeing Zhao Jun stunned, Huang Haizhen smiled and pointed to the west and said: "Little brother, I will take you to our Huichun Hall to have a look, okay?"
"Brother Huang, first... don't worry." Zhao Jun stopped Huang Haizhen and asked, "How do you collect pig grits in your store?"
"Cinnabar? That grade, the highest grade is 12.1 taels..." Huang Haizhen stopped before she could finish her words, because Zhao Jun's expression was wrong, and he also felt something was wrong.
"Little brother..." Huang Haizhen frowned slightly and asked Zhao Jun: "I hear your accent, it sounds like you are from the Northeast. Did you... go to the south to get the cinnabar?"
"Ah!" Zhao Jun was startled, then realized what was happening and said hurriedly: "Brother Huang, the cinnabar I'm talking about is pig grit from the belly of a pig."
"Oops!" Huang Haizhen frowned, smiled at each other and said, "That pig sand, that one is expensive, six yuan and a half."
After saying this, Huang Haizhen paused for a moment, and then continued: "What I just said is the price of domestic pig gizzard. If it is wild boar pig gizzard, it is called wild boar yellow in our industry. If it costs one cent,
It can be sold for...eleven dollars."
"Can you still tell whether this thing comes from a domestic pig or a wild boar?" Zhao Jun asked curiously: "Aren't domestic pigs and wild boars all like that?"
"It's different." Huang Haizhen shook her head slightly and said, "The domestic pig's taste is salty, while the wild boar's taste is sweet."
"Ah..." Zhao Jun nodded and said, "I really don't know about this."
Huang Haizhen smiled when she heard this and didn't say anything.
"Brother Huang, what price do you charge for the black blind man's guts?" Zhao Jun asked again, and Huang Haizhen asked back: "Copper? Iron? Or vegetable?"
Black bears are not only found in the Northeast. Black bears are found in a total of 19 provinces in China, including the Gulf Province.
In these places, the black bears from the Northeast are the largest and produce the largest bile. But in terms of quality, the bear bile from Yunnan and Guizhou is of the best quality.
The distinction between bear bile in the Northeast is based on the color of the bear bile when the bear is killed for bile.
But other places are different. In other places, bear bile is distinguished by the color of the bear bile powder after drying.
In the south, bear bile powder is called gallbladder. Yellow gallstone is called copper gall, black is iron gall, and green is vegetable gall.
Of course, if it's golden, it's golden gall. But golden bear gall is so rare. Huang Haizhen started helping in a drug store when she was seven years old. She has been handling medicinal materials for thirty years and has never seen golden gall once.
"There are all." Zhao Jun said: "There are quite a lot of them. Brother Huang, please give me a real price."
Huang Haizhen looked at Zhao Jun in surprise. He looked at Zhao Jun again calmly, but no matter how he looked at him, he didn't think that Zhao Jun looked like someone who was tinkering with medicinal materials.
"When it comes to weighing on the scale... In terms of weight..." Huang Haizhen thought for a moment and said: "Five thousand copper galls, four thousand five iron galls, and four thousand two vegetable galls."
After listening to the price reported by Huang Haizhen, Zhao Jun thought to himself. According to the price Huang Haizhen gave, taking the average of iron gall and vegetable gall, it would be 4,351 pounds of grass gall.
Last year, Zhao Jun and Wang Meilan went to Daohua County to sell bear bile, and a pound of grass bile cost 3,600 yuan. Later, Zheng Xuekun came to collect it from home and paid 4,000 yuan.
The Zhao's Chamber of Commerce collects bear bile at the same price as the county pharmacy, which is three thousand sixty-one catty. When you come to Anguo, it becomes four thousand three hundred and five hundred, and you can earn seven hundred and fifty per catty.
"This...Brother Huang." Zhao Jun thought for a while and decided to compare shopping, so he said to Huang Haizhen: "I was introduced by a friend. He introduced me to the Security Hall.
Now he has said hello to everyone over there, if I don't go... it won't be good."
"It's okay!" Huang Haizhen waved her hand cheerfully, then pointed to the road to the west and said to Zhao Jun: "Little brother, follow the route I just told you, pass by the entrance of Huichun Hall, and then keep walking forward.
The fourth one is Baoan Tang.”
After Huang Haizhen finished speaking, he saw Zhao Jun looking at him with strange eyes. He smiled and said: "Little brother, when you get to the security hall, you ask them what the price is for collecting black bear bile. I guarantee that it will not be as high as the price I gave you.
"
Hearing what Huang Haizhen said, Zhao Jun felt that he was not lying to him, but Zhao Jun still wanted to go to the security hall to have a look.
After saying goodbye to Huang Haizhen, Zhao Jun got in the car and showed Li Baoyu the way.
When the jeep arrived in front of the security hall, Zhao Jun asked the three people to wait in the car. He got off the car and went into the security hall to inquire about the price.
The security hall has an antique look, and the shopkeeper behind the counter is wearing a long gown, which makes him look quite classy.
Seeing Zhao Jun enter the house, the shopkeeper stood up to welcome him.
There were still people waiting outside, so Zhao Jun didn't waste any time and went straight to the point, saying: "Boss, what's the price of a black bear's bile per pound?"
After asking this question, Zhao Jun added before the shopkeeper could speak: "I have copper gall, iron gall, and grass gall."
The shopkeeper looked at Zhao Jun with some surprise, and then quoted: "Five thousand copper galls, four thousand three iron galls, and four thousand one vegetable galls."
Comparing the price quoted by Bao Bao Tang with the price given by Huang Haizhen, the price of copper gall bladders is the same, while the price of iron gall bladders and vegetable gall bladders is a hundred yuan less each.
Zhao Jun heard this and said: "Boss, I only have two copper galls, less than seven taels. But I have a lot of iron galls and vegetable galls, which can weigh eight or nine kilograms. If I are here to do it, can you
Give me a two dollar increase?"
Hearing what Zhao Jun said, the shopkeeper blinked his eyes and said, "That's the price for the copper galls. I'll give you the iron galls..."
Halfway through the words, the shopkeeper hesitated for a moment and then continued: "Four thousand three hundred and eighty, I can give you four thousand one hundred and twenty for the vegetable gallbladder."
Hearing the shopkeeper's second quotation, Zhao Jun was silent for about three seconds, then shook his head and said: "Boss, let me take another look."
"Huh?" The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, then a smile appeared on his face, and he said confidently: "Then you can walk around and take a look again."
Zhao Jun nodded and smiled, turned around and left the security hall. The boss was a businessman, so even if Zhao Jun wanted to leave, he would send Zhao Jun out.
Zhao Jun got on the jeep, raised his hand and pointed forward, saying: "Baoyu, go forward."
Zhao Jun was not in a hurry to go to Huichun Hall, but was ready to take a look around.
In this way, Zhao Jun visited Qingfeng Tang and Jirentang. After going in and asking about the price, Zhao Jun couldn't help but be disappointed. The prices offered by these two stores were not as good as Baoan Tang.
After coming out of Jirentang, Zhao Jun got into the car and said to Li Baoyu: "Baoyu, take the lead and go back."
"Ah?" Li Baoyu was startled and asked, "Brother, are you going back to the security hall?"
"No!" Zhao Jun said: "Keep going back, let's go to the Huichun Hall."
"Okay!" Li Baoyu started the car and parked the car all the way to the entrance of Huichun Hall.
The four of them got out of the car. Zhao Jun and Jie Chen were sitting in the back row, each carrying a bulging shoulder bag.
Li Baoyu reached out and took the shoulder bag carried by Zhao Jun and put it on his shoulder.
When the four of them entered the Huichun Hall, Huang Haizhen greeted them with a smile, clasped her fists and said with a smile: "The four of you are here, and the flowers will shine!"
At the same time, a middle-aged man in a Chinese tunic suit walked out from behind the counter. His appearance was very similar to Huang Haizhen.
This man has black hair, a red face, and no wrinkles on his face, but he gives the impression that he should be older than Huang Haizhen, and he should be Huang Haizhen's brother.
But after Zhao Jun, Zhao Weipeng and Huang Haizhen exchanged polite words, they saw Huang Haizhen guiding the man and said, "This is my father."
"Ah?" Zhao Jun and the other four were shocked. Seeing that Huang Haizhen was about the same age as Zhao Weipeng, his father was already over sixty. But shopkeeper Huang's mental state was not generally good.
Shopkeeper Huang smiled at Zhao Jun and others, and Zhao Weipeng asked tentatively: "How old is the old man?"
Shopkeeper Huang smiled. When he raised his right hand, his ring finger and little finger were clenched, and his thumb, index finger, and middle finger were pinched together, and he said: "Celebrate the New Year at seventy."
"Oh my god!" Zhao Weipeng said in surprise: "Old man, you take good care of yourself."
"Okay?" Shopkeeper Huang smiled and raised his hand toward the medicine hall and said, "Let's go inside and drink a pot of tea."
After saying that, Shopkeeper Huang said to the young man at the counter: "Xiaosi, you watch from the front. Call me when someone comes."
Then, shopkeeper Huang turned sideways, raised his hand, and asked the four Zhao Jun people to go to the back hall.
Shopkeeper Huang led the way, Zhao Jun and four others followed behind him, and Huang Haizhen walked at the back.
The six of them entered the back hall, which was filled with antique solid wood furniture.
Zhao Jun and others sat down, shopkeeper Huang made tea himself, and then Huang Haizhen served tea to the four of them one by one.
Zhao Jun never had the pleasure of drinking tea in his life, and neither did Xie Chen, nor Zhao Weipeng, but Li Baoyu, who came from a "scholarly family", seemed to be very interested in it.
After sitting down, shopkeeper Huang and Huang Haizhen didn't mention the business. They just chatted lightly with Zhao Jun and Zhao Weipeng about home affairs.
But the father and son spoke very slowly, giving Zhao Jun the opportunity to change the topic at any time.
After chatting for about seven or eight minutes, Zhao Jun smiled at shopkeeper Huang and said, "Old man, we are here to sell some bear bile."
"Okay." Shopkeeper Huang said with a smile: "I heard from Haizhen that there is also pig sand, right?"
"Ah..." Zhao Jun hesitated for a moment and said, "Old man, we won't sell the pig sand."
Shopkeeper Huang looked at Huang Haizhen after hearing this, and then he said to Zhao Jun: "Young man, Haizhen told you the price before. Bear bile can only be at that price, well... I can guarantee that in the eight pharmaceutical markets in Anguo, no one
The price can be higher than what we paid."
Zhao Jun smiled and nodded. He didn't know about other drug markets, but in this drug market, the pharmacies he had walked through and asked about were indeed not as high as Huang Haizhen's prices.
At this time, shopkeeper Huang continued to say to Zhao Jun: "If you are not satisfied with the price of pig grits, I can give you a little more."
"Old man." After hearing what shopkeeper Huang said, Zhao Jun hurriedly said: "I won't sell the pig sand for any price. There isn't much of it, so I'll keep it for myself."
In the past year, the Zhao family has killed three pairs of wild boar and pig pellets. Among them, Wang Qiang killed the 900 kilogram king pig and obtained eight taels of wild boar pellets after drying.
Three pairs of wild boar and pig pellets added together weighed one and a half kilograms.
But Zhao Jun doesn't plan to sell this thing.
The effect of pig gizzard is similar to that of bezoar, and the price of domestic pig gizzard is also similar to that of bezoar.
These days, domestic pig pig litter can be sold for 650 yuan per catty, and wild boar pig litter can be sold for one thousand yuan per catty, which is quite a lot.
But thirty years later, when the price of a pound of natural bezoar exceeded one million, Zhao Jun thought that by then, even if he could sell the wild boar and pig sand as domestic pigs, it would be more appropriate than selling it now.
Instead of selling the thing worth 1,800 yuan, it's better to keep it and keep it. The thing won't go bad anyway, so why not wait until the price is higher before selling it?
Hearing what Zhao Jun said, shopkeeper Huang was not disappointed. He smiled lightly and said, "Young man, let's take a look at the bear bile?"
"Hey!" Zhao Jun responded, and then called Li Baoyu and said: "Baoyu, show me the courage of our black and blind fools."
Li Baoyu stood up, took out a cloth bag from his shoulder bag and came forward. When he arrived in front of Shopkeeper Huang, he took out a small cloth bag from the cloth bag, put it on the table and said, "Old man, there is copper gall in this."
Then, Li Baoyu put the outer cloth bag on the table and said: "This place is full of grass gallbladder."
"It's iron gallbladder and vegetable gallbladder." Zhao Jun added next to him. Shopkeeper Huang smiled when he heard this and said, "Yes, grass gallbladder is what you call Changbai Mountain."
While talking, Shopkeeper Huang took out two small white cloth bags from the small cloth bag.
Shopkeeper Huang opened one of them, took out a bear bile, held it in his hand and looked at it repeatedly for a while.
This piece of bear bile was collected by the Zhao Family Chamber of Commerce, and the seller of this piece of bear bile was Yang Mantang, an acquaintance of Zhao Jun.
This piece of bear bile weighed three taels of gold. Zhao Youcai, who took office on his first day at that time, paid the price of 1,800 yuan for the bear bile, which amounted to less than 4,410 kilograms.
If it were sold at 5,000 yuan per catty, the Zhao Chamber of Commerce would make a profit of 300 yuan from just this bear bile.
After looking at it twice, Shopkeeper Huang put the bear bile back into the small cloth bag, and then nodded to Zhao Jun, meaning that there was nothing wrong with the bear bile.
The second copper gall was also made by an acquaintance of Zhao Jun. It was killed by Jiang Ming and Wei Lai's gang from a blind bear. It weighed three to two six cents, so it was more expensive than the previous one.
After looking at the two copper galls, shopkeeper Huang asked Huang Haizhen to get the gallbladder. Just as shopkeeper Huang was about to look at the straw gallbladders, he suddenly heard Zhao Jun say: "Old man, um... if it's a gold gallbladder, what's the price?"
"Jin Gu?" Hearing this, the Huang family's father and son turned their heads and looked at Zhao Jun in great shock.
Zhao Jun smiled and nodded in response. Shopkeeper Huang stood up and confirmed to Zhao Jun again: "Young man, do you have the guts?"
Zhao Jun stood up, unbuttoned his cotton-padded jacket, took out a small cloth bag from his inner pocket, and handed it to Shopkeeper Huang.
Shopkeeper Huang took it and took out a bear bile from his small cloth pocket. After just one glance, Shopkeeper Huang suddenly raised his head and looked at Zhao Jun.
Immediately, shopkeeper Huang walked to the window, took the bear bile and looked out the window carefully.
This bear is not very bold and weighs only one liang or nine qian, or even less than 2 liang.
But if this piece of bear bile is sold, no matter how much it costs, it will belong to the Zhao family.
That's right, it's the Zhao family, not the Zhao family chamber of commerce.
Because this piece of bear bile was obtained by Zhao Youcai from shooting a Japanese devil.
Shopkeeper Huang, who was in front of the window, suddenly turned around and walked towards where he was sitting just now.
There was a door next to the armchair where he was sitting. When shopkeeper Huang walked to the door, he was about to raise his hand to knock on the door when he remembered something.
Shopkeeper Huang turned around, raised the bear bile towards Zhao Jun, and then placed it on the cloth bag on the table.
Zhao Jun nodded, indicating that Shopkeeper Huang meant that he left the items behind before entering the house to prevent the goods from leaving the owner's sight.
Immediately afterwards, shopkeeper Huang knocked on the door gently twice and called in a low voice: "Dad, Daddy!"
Then, Shopkeeper Huang gently opened the door and stepped into the back room.
At this time, Huang Haizhen stood up and walked to the table, picked up the bear bile and looked at it carefully.
Seeing Zhao Weipeng looking at him, Zhao Jun said with a smile: "My father killed the bear bile from the black blind man."
Hearing Zhao Jun's words, Huang Haizhen raised his head and glanced at Zhao Jun. Only then did he realize why Zhao Jun's temperament didn't look like someone who was transporting medicinal materials. It turned out that this guy was carrying medicinal materials.
After Zhao Jun finished speaking, the door opened again, and an old man walked out of the house.
This old man has a chest-length beard, his beard and hair are all white, and he is wearing a black Tang suit.
The old man's face was also glowing red. Seeing this old man, Zhao Jun couldn't help but think of the ninety-four-year-old old doctor Huang Haizhen said.
The old man walked behind Huang Haizhen, picked up the glasses hanging on his chest and put them on. Huang Haizhen hurriedly sent the bear bile to the old man. The old man raised the bear bile and looked at it twice. Then when he looked at Huang Haizhen, he shook it.
Shake his head.
Seeing the old man shaking his head, Zhao Jun thought he had some objection to the gold gallbladder, but then, Huang Haizhen looked at Zhao Jun and said apologetically: "Young man, you bear gallbladder... we can't afford it."
