In the warehouse of Zhao Jun's house, everyone's eyes were focused on Zhao Jun. Whether this deal succeeds or not depends on what Zhao Jun does next.
Zhao Jun raised his right hand, stretched out his thumb and index finger, made an eight sign, and said to Zheng Xuekun: "Eight thousand."
Eight thousand!
When these two words came out of Zhao Jun's mouth, everyone present was shocked!
Eight thousand yuan, four bear bile, although there is a big one, the price is quite scary.
If these four are worth 8,000 yuan, what about the rest?
Hearing this, Zheng Xuekun shook his head with a smile and said: "Xiao Zhao, I want you to give me a real price, you... haha."
Zheng Xuekun burst into laughter as he spoke. He wanted to collect these four bear biles, just as Zhao Jun thought, he wanted to pour some mung beans into them.
But even if you are planting mung beans, there must be restrictions. You can’t just fill in as much as you want.
At Zhao Jun's price, Zheng Xuekun tried thirteen tricks, but in the end he ended up with no profit or loss. So what was he doing?
Zhao Jun said with a smile: "Master Zheng, if you don't like these four brave men, then look at others. As for these four courages, I am not in a hurry to sell them. I will sell them after they are dry."
It can also be sold for six or seven thousand yuan."
Just now he was called Uncle Zheng, but now Zhao Jun calls Zheng Xuekun Master Zheng.
The title "Master" these days is just like in the entertainment industry twenty years later, anyone can be called "Teacher" when meeting someone. It can be applied to anyone.
And after listening to what Zhao Jun said just now, Zheng Xuekun also understood what Zhao Jun meant.
Zhao Jun knew what Zheng Xuekun was up to, but Zhao Jun's attitude was very clear, that is, he made it clear that he was not willing to make this money. Therefore, he asked for a high price to make Zheng Xuekun retreat.
Not only that, Zhao Jun did not want to have a close relationship with Zheng Xuekun, but the two sides were discussing business, and Zhao Jun also said that he would let Zheng Xuekun look at other bear bile. These four bear bile would not be sold, but the rest would be as usual.
Zheng Xuekun took a deep look at Zhao Jun, and only then did he realize that the young man in front of him was not only very skilled, but also experienced in dealing with people.
Thinking of this, Zheng Xuekun quickly glanced at Wang Meilan again, thinking that no wonder this old woman, a widower, could buy such a large family property. Having a good son is much better than a man. p>
Immediately afterwards, Zheng Xuekun looked up at the bear bile on the beam, and then asked Zhao Jun: "Xiao Zhao, what is the price of the remaining bear bile you have?"
"Master Zheng." Zhao Jun said: "Which one you like, just weigh it on the scale. They are all grass gallbladders. The black blind man's gallbladder costs four thousand yuan per catty; the bear bully's gallbladder costs three thousand yuan per catty." This seems to be the first time I have bought and sold bear bile by the pound. But think about it, there is probably no other home in the Northeast or even the whole country that can hang so many bear biles.
Hearing this, Zheng Xuekun made a rough calculation in his mind and asked Zhao Jun with a smile: "Xiao Zhao, your price is a bit high, isn't it? You can't sell it to a drugstore in the city for the same amount of money."
"Haha." Zhao Jun chuckled and said, "Master Zheng, you are right, but if you want to go to the city drugstore to buy bear bile, I'm afraid it won't be at this price, right?"
Hearing Zhao Jun's words, Zheng Xuekun smiled, took a few steps forward, and glanced at the row of bear bile.
Zheng Xuekun raised his hand, pointed at a small bear bile, then moved his finger to the right and said: "Xiao Zhao, please take down all these bear bile for me and let's weigh them."
As soon as Zheng Xuekun finished speaking, he saw two people flashing out from behind Zhao Jun. They were Li Baoyu and the minister.
How can Zhao Jun take action on such a trivial matter?
Li Baoyu, who was about 1.90 meters tall, raised his hand to untie the rope from the beam. He untied a bear bile and handed it to Jie Chen, who then placed it on the horse stool.
The one Li Baoyu took off first was the one Zheng Xuekun pointed at first. This bear was not very brave.
It came from a black bear weighing less than 200 kilograms. That day, when Zhao Jun, Li Baoyu, and Zhang Yuanmin were carrying the mallet, they heard the roar of a black bear above. They followed the sound and saw that the black bear had got into the trap.
The second bear bile that Li Baoyu picked was taken from a big female black bear. This black bear and the black bear in the trap were mother and son. When Zhao Jun shot her son that day, the female black bear came down the mountain and also shot the bear.
Zhang Yuanmin sat down on his butt.
This female bear was not small when she was alive, weighing 356 pounds.
Or maybe Zhao Jun said that the black bear that can take down Zhang Yuanmin must weigh upwards of three hundred kilograms. A black bear under three hundred kilograms is not qualified to chase a big crotch.
Immediately afterwards, there were two black bear gallbladders, one small and one large. These were also produced by a mother and son, but they were slightly smaller than the gallbladders of the mother and son just now. This little bear gallbladder weighed more than 120 kilograms.
The cub was born, and its mother weighed less than three hundred pounds when she was alive.
Then, there is a half-pound of brown bear bile. This brown bear weighed seven to eight hundred kilograms during his lifetime, and was also known as the bear tyrant. Its bear bile weighed eighty-nine taels after drying in the shade.
These three bear gallbladders were killed by Zhao Jun and Li Baoyu on the same day. What a coincidence was that the brown bear was chasing the black bear mother and her son, but the two men came after them.
Looking at the big brown bear bile, Zheng Xuekun felt a little regretful. Such a big brown bear bile cannot be passed off as black bear bile.
The sixth bear gallbladder is still black bear gallbladder, but it is not small. It is larger than the previous black bear gallbladders, nearly half a catty.
The owner of this bear bile during his lifetime was also unusual. Both Lao Jiang and Tao Dasheng died under its claws.
The seventh bear bile, another black bear bile, is bigger than the previous one. It may weigh more than half a catty.
Precisely because of the size of this bear, Gu Yang regarded it as a big black blind man weighing 700 to 800 pounds. He even peed his pants in fear and was promoted by Li Ruhai in the village.
The bear bile in Zhao Jun's house was hung on the beams in order of acquisition. Zheng Xuekun stretched out his hand and selected the ones that were harvested after the beginning of spring.
But no matter morning or evening, it has been dried in the shade, and the bile skin is full of bear bile powder.
Next, it’s time to settle accounts.
Zheng Xuekun turned around and waved to Zheng Donghai, who took out a scale from his snakeskin bag.
This scale is used by the two of them to collect fungus and mushrooms. Today's situation is special, so it's okay to use it to weigh the bear's courage.
First weigh the dried brown bear bile, put it on the scale plate, lift the handle here, hang the scale weight there and pull it up. The scale weight is high. Look at the scale pole, the two pounds are clearly visible. A big star is one pound, and the middle one is one pound.
A small star is one or two.
The weight was between eight and nine liang, slightly closer to nine liang. Zhao Jun asked Zheng Xuekun to take advantage and gave him eight and a half liang.
According to the price the two of them just set, a pound of brown bear bile costs 3,000 yuan, and eight and a half taels is 2,550 yuan.
He took the brown bear bile off the scale and put it aside. Zheng Xuekun picked up the largest black bear bile and placed it on top first. When he went to get the second one, he was stopped by Zhao Jun.
Zheng Xuekun thought, anyway, the unit price of black bear bile is the same by the kilogram, so he can put them all on the top and weigh them together. But for Zhao Jun and others, some of the bear bile is divided into three parts, and some is divided into four parts.
, so you have to weigh them one by one.
Zheng Xuekun did not refuse Zhao Jun's request. From the fact that Zhao Jun refused to sell his four bear bile, Zheng Xuekun could see that Zhao Jun was different from other mountain runners and could not be controlled by himself. p>
It’s just a bit of work anyway, why not do it if you can make money?
Zheng Xuekun picked up the scale and showed the weight to Zhao Jun, but Zhao Jun called Zhang Yuanmin and said, "Brother, come and take a look."
Although Zhang Yuanmin was standing not far away, he lowered his head and raised his hand above his head to shake it. At this time, Li Baoyu and the ministers also retreated behind Wang Meilan and Jin Xiaomei.
Seeing this, Zhao Jun looked at the scale pole and saw that the scale weight was hanging at exactly five ounces, so he said: "Half a catty."
Zheng Xuekun did not take down the bear bile, but put another bear bile on it, and then quickly moved the weight. Zhao Jun saw that the weight of the two bear bile was about ninety-two four cents, so in other words, the second bear bile
Courage is four taels and four cents.
"Four two four!" After Zhao Jun said, Zheng Xuekun put bear gall bladders one by one on the scale, and weighed each one for Zhao Jun to check.
The remaining four bear bile, calculated by Zhao Jun, weighed three to one, two to three, four to six and two to six.
Six black bear bile, total weight is two pounds, one tael and five cents.
According to the agreement between Zhao Jun and Zheng Xuekun, black bear bile costs four thousand yuan per pound, and those six black bear bile are worth eight thousand five hundred and sixty yuan!
Including the brown bear bile worth NT$2,550, the total is NT$11,110.
At this time, Zhao Jun looked at Zheng Xuekun and asked: "Master Zheng, are there not two more coming?"
Hearing this, Zheng Xuekun smiled bitterly and said, "Xiao Zhao, let's collect these first and wait for the next time."
With that said, Zheng Xuekun waved to Zheng Donghai, and Zheng Donghai took out a canvas bag from his snakeskin bag. The two men came from their hometown and brought a total of 20,000 yuan, but they couldn't collect all the bear bile, they had to get something else.
Take things back.
Zhao Jun saw that Zheng Xuekun was about to pay and said hurriedly: "Master Zheng, let's go into the house and sit for a while."
These days, there are no hundred-dollar bills.
The largest denomination in circulation on the market is ten yuan. The third edition of the ten-yuan banknotes is commonly known as the Great Unity. One hundred of the large unity notes make up a stack, and one stack is worth one thousand yuan. These seven bear gallbladders would have to be exchanged for more than eleven stacks.
.
Such a large amount of money must be settled and counted face to face.
Zheng Xuekun had no objection to this and followed everyone into the house. But when he was walking through the courtyard of Zhao Jun's house, Zheng Xuekun pointed at the badger skin draped on the wall between Zhao and Li's family and asked: "Xiao Zhao, what about that badger skin?"
Everybody."
Zhao Jun said directly to Zheng Xuekun: "Master Zheng, you give me the price for this."
"Ten dollars." Zheng Xuekun said: "I'll charge this price anywhere."
When Zhao Jun heard this, he turned back and glanced at Zhang Yuanmin. Zhao Jun didn't understand this thing, but Zhang Yuanmin, who was once known as the badger, definitely understood this.
Seeing Zhang Yuanmin nodding, Zhao Jun said: "Okay, seven bills worth 70 yuan, you can just pretend until you leave."
Badger skin is different from bear bile, so no one cared about it, so everyone entered the house together.
At this time, Yang Yufeng and several little girls had finished their meal. On the table of women and children, only Wang Meilan and Jin Xiaomei were left.
However, they were not in the mood to eat at all now. After everyone returned to the west room together, Zhao Jun invited Jin Xiaoshan, Zheng Xuekun, and Zheng Donghai to get on the kang, and asked the elder Zhang Yuanmin to accompany them.
Before Zhao Jun could hand over the cigarettes, Zheng Xuekun took out a large stack of cigarettes from his canvas bag and placed them on the edge of the kang.
There are eleven piles in total, plus eighteen sheets.
Although they were brought here by Jin Xiaoshan, they had no friendship with each other. Wang Meilan and Jin Xiaomei began to check the money without any courtesy, opening each stack and counting them over and over again.
Zheng Xuekun and Zheng Donghai had no reaction to this. They smoked cigarettes given by Zhao Jun, drank jasmine tea bought by Wang Meilan from Lingnan Supply and Marketing Cooperative, and chatted with Zhang Yuanmin.
In Northeastern terms, they are in trouble!
Zheng Donghai asked out of curiosity where the two big bear gallbladders came from. Zhang Yuanmin told them and his son about Zhuge's plan to destroy the big bear tyrant. The Zheng family and his son were dumbfounded.
Li Ruhai is eager to try.
It's a pity that he is still young and would not be able to take the stage on this occasion. Otherwise, Li Ruhai believes that he would never be inferior to Zhang Yuanmin in terms of eloquence and expressive ability.
Eleven wads of money, a thousand pieces, Wang Meilan and Jin Xiaomei counted them five times. Finally, Wang Meilan stood up, took off the shoulder bag that Zhao Jun usually wore as a girdle from the wall, and put all the money in it. Then, Wang Meilan hugged
She carried the bag to the opposite room. She had to entertain guests, and she believed in Yang Yufeng, so she handed the bag containing the money into Yang Yufeng's hands.
Yang Yufeng held so much money in her arms that she could not move while sitting on the kang. Wang Meilan was just about to go back to the west room when she suddenly looked at the leopard skin hanging on the north wall.
The poor local leopard was torn apart by the dog gang that day, but there were no missing parts on it.
After being brought back by Zhao Jun, after being flogged, the hair was soaked in a wine barrel, and the rest of the skin was peeled off. After being sutured by Wang Meilan and Jin Xiaomei, it became a handicraft of Zhao Jun's family.
Wang Meilan raised her legs to get on the kang and took off the patched leopard skin, but she made a sudden movement and hung it on the wall again.
When Wang Meilan returned to the West Room, she heard Zhang Yuanmin telling the Zheng family and his son the story of Wei Yan's escape from the tiger's mouth.
These stories don't have much to say, they just describe the terror of the roaring tigers in the mountains and forests at that time.
At this time, Wang Meilan suddenly interrupted and said to Zheng Xuekun: "Master Zheng, let me tell you, the superiors are not allowed to fight, otherwise my son can sell you two tiger skins today."
When Zheng Xuekun heard this, he thought that this was a mother praising her son, but he didn't take it seriously. But for Zheng Xuekun, even though he spent more than eleven thousand today, he could take those bear bile to Guanli, and even
If you go to the capital, you will definitely make money. Therefore, Wang Meilan and Zhao Jun are Zheng Xuekun’s gods of wealth.
So, Zheng Xuekun followed Wang Meilan's words and praised: "Big sister, your boy is awesome!"
As he said this, Zheng Xuekun also gave a thumbs up.
"That's right!" Wang Meilan pretended to smile proudly: "In this mountain, except for big claws, my son has beaten everything else."
Speaking of this, Wang Meilan raised her chin and said: "As for that local leopard, no matter how many experienced gunners we have here, we can't hit it. And that stupid... man, you can go fishing with lambs and squat for several days."
It’s all for nothing. My son was knocked to death by the leopard after just two pongs.”
Everyone was a little stunned when they heard Wang Meilan's words, but Zhao Youcai's incident of using sheep to catch leopards did not spread. Jin Xiaomei, Zhang Yuanmin and others were surprised that Wang Meilan was a little abnormal?
But Zheng Xuekun and Zheng Donghai and his son were very shocked. They had been traveling in the Northeast for three or four years and had only heard of the legend of the Siberian leopard, but had never seen it. When they heard it, they immediately became interested!
"Xiao Zhao." Zheng Xuekun turned to find the real owner and asked Zhao Jun: "Have you really shot a leopard?"
"Then look." Mother and son connected heart to heart. Zhao Jun understood Wang Meilan's intention at this time and immediately smiled and said: "The leopard skin is still hanging in my room. If you don't believe it, I will bring it to you to see!" p>
Zheng Xuekun's eyes lit up and he nodded: "Have a look!"
As soon as Wang Meilan heard this, she turned around and walked out, thinking that if you have some money in your pocket, don't even think about taking any of it away, just leave it all to me!
