Chapter 254: The Gambling Begins (Seeking Monthly Ticket)
Ye Zhentang's facial expression is a little weird and twitching. This bet is really too big. The Ye family, starting from Ye Zhentang's father, has been in the wholesale business of traditional Chinese medicine. Until now, the accumulation of three generations, before 2003, was only
It's a medium level,
With the help of the east wind in 2003, the Ye family really rose and earned its first pot of gold. The next five years were the peak period of the Ye family's development. From 2003, the family property was less than 200 million. After more than five years,
Up to now, the household wealth is almost 1 billion, which has increased five times.
Two hundred million is only one-fifth of the Ye family's property. The Ye family can actually afford it. However, that is only in theory. In reality, someone like Tang Zheng can afford five hundred million at any time.
It’s really rare to get the above amount in cash.
You know, the average rich man's claims to the outside world about how much wealth he has are all empty talk. In fact, they don't have that much cash. Most of their wealth is fixed assets, equipment, and the like.
The Ye family is no exception, claiming to be worth one billion. In fact, this also includes the properties purchased by the Ye family in Zhonghai, Beijing and other places. The buildings and equipment of the traditional Chinese medicine pieces processing factory in Bozhou. And then, there are a large number of
Inventory of traditional Chinese medicine. I want to say cash. 70 to 80 million, no.
There is a problem, the 200 million yuan is really not available. The problem is, even if it is collected together, the loss will be not small. If we lose in the end, the loss of 200 million yuan is still a small matter, and it will have a huge impact on the Ye family's entire business.
The capital chain is broken, this is no joke.
It can be said that now it is a matter of affecting the whole body. Ye Zhentang also had to be cautious. He said with a smile: "Tang..."
As soon as the word "Tang" came out of his mouth, Tang Zheng waved his hand and said: "Stop talking about those useless things. Be more relaxed and decide whether to gamble or not. If you can't afford to gamble, forget it. One or two million, I really don't have that interest."
What Tang Zheng said was true. Since the Ye family and his son had bad intentions and wanted to owe him debts to them, he had nothing to be polite about. Tang Zheng would not do the stupid thing of repaying evil with kindness. Confucius did not
Having said that, repay kindness with kindness? Why repay kindness with kindness? Naturally, I will not be so kind.
At this time, Ye Qidi walked up to Ye Zhentang and whispered: "Dad, is this Tang Zheng bluffing on purpose? He alone can come up with 200 million in funds?"
Ye Zhentang said in a deep voice: "Qidi, you remember, people cannot be judged by their appearance, and sea water cannot be measured. Bai Changsheng, an old fox, pays so much attention to and is so polite. These people are definitely not simple. Since he proposed 200 million, he must be able to come up with it."
No matter where he got it from, he definitely got it. What I'm worried about now is not the money, but the outcome of the gamble."
Speaking of this, Ye Qidi said: "Dad, why are you worried about this? Do you still need to worry? In my opinion, he just wants to bluff and influence our judgment with such a big bet. He probably saw it too,
The withdrawal of 200 million funds will have a huge impact on our family's business. Looking at it now, he just wants to give us the illusion that he is sure to win."
It makes sense to say this. As the saying goes, a war never tires of deceit. Sometimes, this is really the case.
After pondering for a moment, Ye Zhentang said slowly: "Qidi, you have had contact with him just now. How familiar do you think Tang Zheng is with Chinese medicine?"
Speaking of this, Ye Qidi pondered for a moment and said: "He knows Tai Sui, and he should have some contact and understanding of traditional Chinese medicine. However, this person felt at the time that Tai Sui is worth about 100,000 at most. From this aspect, his understanding of traditional Chinese medicine
I understand, but there are still some shortcomings. I think there should be no problem in defeating him."
Ye Qidi's words were quite pertinent. However, what he didn't know was that Tang Zheng's bid for Tai Sui was a complete set-up. After he left, he quickly bought the Tai Sui grass. What if...
Knowing this, Ye Qidi definitely does not have his current attitude.
As he said that, Ye Qidi looked at his father and whispered: "Dad, think about how old Tang Zheng is. He must be no more than 26 years old. According to newspapers and news, he only started studying medicine when he was 20 years old.
Moreover, he studied Western medicine. Even in five years, how much can he know about Chinese medicine and Chinese medicine?"
Ye Zhentang nodded involuntarily at this moment. Traditional Chinese medicine is not an art. There are no shortcuts in this regard.
When it comes to art, you can just focus on one, painting, vocal music or instrumental music. If you focus on one subject for five years, those with outstanding talents can develop very well. However, Chinese medicine is not good. There are too many Chinese medicines. Just plants.
categories, they are divided into rhizomes, branches and leaves, fruits
Real categories. In addition, there are animal medicinal materials, viscera, fur, bones, organs, etc., as well as mineral Chinese medicinal materials. There are currently 12,807 known types of traditional Chinese medicine resources, including 11,146 species of plants and medicinal animals.
1581 kinds, 80 kinds of medicinal minerals.
Even his son Ye Qidi has been learning these things from him since he was eight years old. Now, in fifteen years, he has torn through a large dictionary of Chinese medicine, and he is only familiar with more than a thousand commonly used medicinal materials.
.
At this time, Ye Zhentang also had some doubts about Tang Zheng's ability. After pondering for a moment, Ye Zhentang looked up at Tang Zheng and said, "Okay, I promise you."
After finishing speaking, Ye Zhentang turned to Bai Changsheng and Dongfang Xuri and said: "Brother Bai, brother Dongfang, this card is ICBC's VIP Gold Card. It contains 80 million, and you can also have an overdraft of 20 million. Even one
100 million. Do you have any objection? In addition, my forty storefronts in the pharmaceutical market and a warehouse of 10,000 square meters are priced at 100 million. How about mortgage them to two people and let you guarantee them for me?"
Forty storefronts, each storefront is nearly 100 square meters, which is equivalent to 4,000 square meters of storefronts. According to the storefront price here, it is 20,000 yuan per square meter, which is 80 million. In addition to the 10,000 square meters of warehouse, geographical
The location is excellent, and it also has constant temperature, drying, refrigeration and other functions. It is specially built for storing medicinal materials. Even though the cost is more than 1,000 per square meter, which is only 20 million, it is indeed a profit.
Bai Changsheng and Dongfang Xuri looked at each other, nodded slowly and said, "Okay. Just follow cousin Zhen's wishes."
Here, Tang Zheng took out his checkbook, wrote out a check, handed it to Bai Changsheng, and said: "This is a cashier's check for 200 million yuan in cash from Bank of China. It can be cashed on sight. You can call to check.
."
As the funds from both parties arrived, the gambling battle officially began. At this time, Bai Changsheng, Dongfang Xuri, Ji Yun, Li Chunyu, and Ye Zhentang became the witnesses of the gambling battle.
Bai Changsheng's people came forward to serve as the referee, and someone from Dongfang Xuri's side covered Tang Zheng and Ye Qidi's eyes with black opaque black cloth. Someone brought the two people to the middle of the hall, and everyone
There is a table and a chair in front of each table.
Next, it is a test of one's familiarity with medicinal materials. The principle of the exam is that the questions are exactly the same. When answering, an earphone will be used to cover the other person's ears. The principle adopted is that Tang Zheng answers the questions later, so
First of all, Tang Zheng doesn't need to worry about the other party tampering with the headphones. This is the Ye family's home field. The Ye family personally controls the headphones. Naturally, this is extremely reassuring.
The first one was prepared by Bai Changsheng. It was a very common medicinal material, raw land, and it was already roasted. Ye Qidi picked up the raw land, tasted it, smelled it, and then felt it again, then smiled.
Said: "Shengdi, the medicinal age is about one year, and it should be in the category of first-class products. Shengdi is also known as Shengdihuang.
, excavated in autumn, used fresh or dried in slices for raw use. Rehmannia glutinosa is raw rehmannia glutinosa, which is mixed with rice wine and steamed until the inside and outside are black and oily, or directly steamed until black and moist. Cut into thick slices. Raw rehmannia glutinosa has heat-clearing and cooling properties.
It has the effect of replenishing yin and promoting fluid production. Li Shizhen’s evaluation of raw rehmannia glutinosa is: “If you take it for a hundred days, the noodles will look like peach blossoms, and you will stay young for three years.”
Next, it was Tang Zheng. At this moment, Tang Zheng just pinched it, and then, after smelling it, he said: "Shengdi."
Unlike Ye Qidi who shows off his knowledge and quotes from scriptures, Tang Zheng's words are very concise and simple. The competition is about discrimination. As long as you can say it accurately, that's fine. As for the process, that is your own business.
Next, Dongfang Xuri chose Angelica sinensis. As a medicinal herb like Angelica sinensis, you don’t even need to touch it. You can already know it by smelling the smell.
Then, Ji Yun's choice of Chinese medicine was a little more difficult than the previous two. Ji Yun chose gypsum.
This mineral medicinal material is difficult to identify. Gypsum powder is very similar to another medicinal additive, talc powder. According to the rules, talc powder is also a traditional Chinese medicinal material.
However, in terms of identification, Ye Qidi and Tang Zheng were able to distinguish them. As usual, Ye Qidi also showed off that there was a difference in the feel of talcum powder and gypsum. Talc powder has a grainy feel, while gypsum is delicate and tender.
Slippery feeling. This is very obvious.
The first three games were indistinguishable. Ye Qidi liked to show off. After identification, he would always show off. On Tang Zheng's side, the speed remained constant. Each identification lasted about three minutes, and then he said directly.
Produces results. Never talks too much.
Everyone knows that these three games are just appetizers. Generally, in this kind of gambling fight, the medicinal materials used by the witnesses are symbolic, and no one will have any problems. If it stumps the enemy, it's okay to say that it stumps the enemy.
I'm sorry if I'm one of my own. If something like that happened, but
It offends people. Therefore, the medicinal materials used by Bai Changsheng and Dongfang Xuri are very simple. Ji Yun's side, although it is a little difficult, can still prove that Ji Yun's mentality is not as calm as Bai Changsheng and other old foxes. When setting the question,
There are some emotions. But, it’s not too difficult.
At this time, the remaining two rounds are the most critical. On this question, the other party hardly needs to guess because they are the ones who came up with the question. However, for others, it is not so easy.
.This is when the real test comes. (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
