Chapter 677 Treasure-level Traditional Chinese Medicine
As soon as Lin Zichen finished speaking, the people watching were in an uproar.
What just happened has attracted a lot of onlookers. In addition to the large number of people in the antique city, it can be said that there are hundreds of people watching the conversation between Lin Zichen and Mr. Gu, and they are even more aware of the price of the stone tripod.
interest.
But when they heard the price of 60 million, almost everyone felt that the old man did it on purpose, maybe to teach Lin Zichen a lesson, maybe to give him the jade piece.
But when Lin Zichen said I want three words, this really surprised everyone.
"Is he crazy? Sixty million to buy a stone tripod? I'll sell it too..."
"Haha, I guess this kid is just being funny, he is just challenging the old man!"
"Yes, I think so. This young man doesn't look like he's from a wealthy family. He's probably just trying to impress himself."
However, Lin Zichen didn't think so. The material of the cold iron in the alchemy cauldron was of the highest quality. The cold iron originated from the Tianshan Mountains. Even though its location is known, it is now extinct, so there is no way that there will be a new cold iron cauldron.
It is only passed down from ancient times.
The cold iron material itself has a catalytic effect on alchemy, which can greatly improve the efficiency and progress of refining. In addition, the iron is cold, which can effectively control the flame. It is extremely resistant to high temperatures and has high durability, making it a powerful tool for making cauldrons.
One of the best materials for furnaces.
The Panlong Cauldron in his hand is made of bronze. Although it is not as good as cold iron, the gems inlaid around it have a stronger catalytic effect. In addition, the cauldron is small and easy to carry, so its value will be higher.
"Old sir, you said before that as long as I can afford the price, you will give me this cauldron, right?"
Mr. Gu murmured in his heart. He looked at Lin Zichen suspiciously. He... could really afford 60 million?
If he can't afford it, this is a joke at most. I can ask him to give money. When he can't afford it, I will give him the jade piece, which will also let everyone see my big fortune.
Spend.
But if he can afford it...this cauldron has already been promised to the buyer, so of course I won't sell it for two.
After thinking for a while, Mr. Gu nodded: "Haha, you said it's no use asking for it, you have to come up with 60 million."
Lin Zichen was pleasantly surprised. Sixty million was indeed not cheap, but for him it was not a frown. He didn't even need to ask Zhou Xiaotong, Huang Yi or Lan Luoshi to transfer money. He already had dozens of dollars in his own card.
100 million.
What's more, this is a purely private behavior and does not require any company's accounts.
Lin Zichen smiled and said: "I'll tell you, old gentleman, give me your bank account number and I'll transfer it to you!"
With that said, Lin Zichen took out his mobile phone and looked like he was about to transfer money.
Seeing this scene, the onlookers were filled with emotion. It seems that this little guy is not showing his true face. This posture should not be a bluff, and there is no point in his bluff. He obviously really intends to buy the stone cauldron for 60 million.
.
But seeing Lin Zichen's actions, Mr. Gu felt guilty. What? Can he really afford 60 million?
Now is not the time to gamble. If he really transfers the money, I won't be able to sell the tripod by then.
Thinking of this, Mr. Gu's expression changed again and he said: "No, no, no, don't transfer the money, I won't sell this tripod!"
"What? Haha, old sir, this is going back on your word!" Lin Zichen said.
As the wind direction changed, the crowd became lively again.
"You're such a shameless old man. You've been bragging for a long time and you didn't sell it to a young man for 60 million. How can you do that?"
"Yeah, you're so inconsistent. How can you be so unreliable at such an old age?"
"Business is based on integrity, aren't you lying?"
Listening to the shouts from the crowd, Mr. Gu's face changed color, and he immediately said: "This is my business. If I say you won't sell it, I won't sell it. Xu Peng, pack your things and let's go back!"
"Yes, Mr. Gu!" The man named Xu Peng nodded, then picked up his mobile phone and dialed a number. He hung up after saying a few words, and then began to pack up the things on the stall.
The voices in the crowd continued, but Lin Zichen said nothing more. It seemed that this old gentleman really didn't intend to sell the tripod.
He couldn't steal it in full view of everyone, so he could only sigh inwardly, it seemed that he had no chance with this cold iron cauldron.
Soon, seven or eight more young men walked in from the outside. Xu Peng said a few words to them, and then they squatted around the tripod, shouted a slogan, and lifted the tripod.
After all, this tripod is over one meter high, and it would be impossible for three or two people to lift it, no matter how strong they were.
Xu Peng packed up all his things and walked out. Mr. Gu walked up to Lin Zichen, holding the jade handle, and said: "Young man, I also have my own reasons for this matter. This jade tiger talisman should be regarded as our fate."
Bar."
Lin Zichen looked at the piece. It was indeed an antique, but no matter how valuable it was, it couldn't arouse his interest. What he needed was the alchemy cauldron, and money... he had plenty of it.
"Forget it, since you don't have the chance to buy the tripod, why do you need this fate? It's better for the old gentleman to keep it to himself."
These words shocked Mr. Gu's heart. This boy looked young, but his tone and aura were very mature, and he even had a sense of vicissitudes of life. Could it be that he really met an expert today?
However, the boos in the crowd got louder and louder, and Mr. Gu couldn't stay any longer. He reluctantly put away the jade handle, walked out of the crowd, and walked straight out of the antique city.
Lin Zichen leaned against the stone pillar and chased after him with all his soul. He found Mr. Gu getting into a black Mercedes-Benz S sedan. He obviously had an unusual identity.
The tripod and other treasures were moved to a small truck. This should also be his special truck. Haha, he is not a simple antique dealer...
Lin Zichen plans to strengthen his alchemy skills during this period, and even try to refine higher-grade elixirs, so he also hopes to have one more cauldron to increase the refining speed. Refining two cauldrons at the same time can not only improve his alchemy ability, but also
Then refine some low-grade elixirs and give them to Lan to sell.
But this can only be said to be a missed opportunity...
Even so, Lin Zichen's mood was not affected at all. After all, this day's relaxation also made his heavy mind relax a lot.
Afterwards, he did not stay in the antique city anymore, but took a taxi to the famous food street, intending to buy some food and visit his teacher Kong Wanchuan in the evening.
…
Shishan Villa area, in the villa lobby.
Kong Wanchuan was receiving guests. There were several plates of snacks on the coffee table, and he was drinking a pot of steaming tea. Next to him sat an old man. The old man was about the same age as Kong Wanchuan. He was wearing a Chinese costume and holding a hand.
A walking stick made of Wenwan walnuts connected together.
It was Mr. Gu whom Lin Zichen met in the antique city.
Kong Wanchuan took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "Mr. Gu, we haven't seen each other for a while, why do you think of me here?"
"Haha, Brother Wanchuan's words are far away. If you hadn't taken action, my life would have been lost long ago. Is there still time to come and see you?" Mr. Gu said with a smile.
Kong Wanchuan nodded and smiled: "Mr. Gu, there is no need to keep it in mind. It is the doctor's duty to treat illnesses and save people. What is needed is not for the patient to keep thank you in his heart."
"Brother Wan Chuan is still so humble. If China had Chinese medicine doctors like you, the medical field would have developed greatly." Mr. Gu took a sip of tea and said.
"The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead. I am old, but young people today have more potential."
Mr. Gu shook his head and said: "Brother Wan Chuan is wrong. Chinese medicine pays attention to qualifications. Young doctors may have good potential, but experience will take time to make up for. This cannot be rushed."
"Haha, Mr. Gu's opinions are still too popular, and sometimes they are not always true. There are so many talents in China today, I don't dare to call him a leader."
Hearing what Kong Wanchuan said, Mr. Gu smiled, thinking that Kong Wanchuan was being too modest.
"It's good that China has a large number of talented people, but someone who can shake Lao Kong's position as the leader... Haha, I, Gu Hong, have never heard of it!"
Mr. Gu, whose real name is Gu Hong, is a famous collector in China. He not only opened his own museum to display the treasures he collected, but he can be said to be ranked among the top five collectors in China.
A few years ago, Gu Hong almost died from a serious illness. It was Kong Wanchuan who saved his life by using acupuncture combined with medicine. Therefore, he respected Kong Wanchuan very much and visited him several times a year.
And the two of them have one thing in common, that is, they are both very honest, one is honest in medicine, and the other is honest in business, and this is why Lin Zichen really offered 60 million, but Gu Hong still did not give up the cauldron.
Kong Wanchuan smiled and said: "Mr. Gu, I have a disciple named Lin Zichen, and his medical skills have already surpassed mine."
"Lin Zichen?" Gu Hong narrowed his eyes slightly and thought for a moment, "But I don't seem to have heard of this name in the Chinese traditional medicine community."
"Haha, Zichen rarely takes action, and there are very few people who can persuade him. If it weren't for him, I'm afraid I would have been killed long ago." Kong Wanchuan's face was filled with pride as he spoke.
Hearing these words, Gu Hong was shocked. He really didn't know that there was such a talented person in China today who could have higher medical skills than Kong Wanchuan. Wouldn't that be a treasure of China?
"Haha, what Mr. Kong said is not a joke, right?"
"When did I ever make a joke?" Kong Wanchuan said with a smile.
"Then...is your disciple here? Can you let me have the honor to meet him?" Gu Hong was a little excited when he spoke. After all, although he is a collector, he can't compare with a young Chinese medicine doctor whose strength surpasses that of a master.
Hearing this, Kong Wanchuan smiled: "Haha, I'm afraid you won't be so lucky. As a disciple, it's hard for me to even meet you."
Gu Hong sighed and nodded slowly, thinking that this was not surprising. With such medical skills, he couldn't stay at the teacher's house every day. He must have gone out to start a big career.
"Haha, Mr. Kong is so lucky to have a disciple with such potential. Speaking of young talents... Actually, I also met one today." Gu Hong said thoughtfully.
"Oh? Haha, if a young talent can be taken advantage of by Mr. Gu, I'm afraid this young man is not ordinary."
Gu Hong nodded: "Yes, a young man who is only in his twenties gives me an extremely sophisticated and deep feeling. I have never been so shocked in my life!"
As soon as Gu Hong finished speaking, Kong Wanchuan's student Wang Yu knocked on the door and immediately walked into the living room.
