If Zhuang Zhou remembered correctly, the only thing he remembered was Changbai Mountain ginseng.
There is no Taibai Mountain ginseng at all!
But I have heard of Taibai Mountain.
Located in the Qinling Mountains, it is also known as East and West Taibai Mountain.
However, Zhuang Zhou is indeed not professional in this area.
As long as the difference between Taibai Mountain ginseng and Changbai Mountain ginseng is not the same as that between Oreo and Yueliyue, it’s fine.
Otherwise it would be a rip-off!
"Dad Niu, how much do you want to sell this ginseng?"
Zhuang Zhou also followed Niu Jiujin and called him "Old Man Niu".
This old man obviously knows his stuff:
"To be honest with you, Master Zhuang, this pair of ginseng has a lifespan of fifty years. If you really want it, give me five strings of cash!"
Five strings of cash is quite a lot!
However, Zhuang Zhou didn't care about the price, but the age he mentioned.
"Old Man Niu, how do you know this ginseng is fifty years old?"
Father Niu said confidently:
"Come and look at this reed."
Zhuang Zhou glanced over.
"See? There's a bowl under the root. You know, every year the ginseng grows, it grows one bowl. I've counted fifty-seven of them, so this ginseng has a lifespan of at least fifty years."
Good job!
This was the first time Zhuang Zhou heard of this thing.
But when he looked carefully, it seemed to be true.
It seems that this thing is similar to the annual rings of a tree.
You can roughly judge the age.
But to be honest, Zhuang Zhou felt that this pair of ginseng must be promising at first sight.
Even if it's not fifty years.
But this has been going on for at least a few decades.
The most important thing is that this is real wild ginseng!
This alone is worth Zhuang Zhou's effort.
Thinking of this, Zhuang Zhou no longer hesitated:
"That's fine! I'll take the five strings of cash."
By the way, Old Man Niu has been shouting here for quite some time.
But in the end, no one was willing to take a look.
It’s not that his products are bad, it’s that many people simply can’t afford them.
But Old Man Niu originally planned to sell it for two strings of cash.
But when I heard who Zhuang Zhou's boss was, I knew he must be rich.
So I thought of asking for a high price and waiting for the other party to bargain down.
But who knows.
Zhuang Zhou agreed immediately.
These five strings of cash are enough to cover the expenses of their family of nine for a year.
In fact, Zhuang Zhou was even happier, as he bought decades-old wild ginseng for only five strings of cash.
This is a huge profit!
After returning to Zhuangji Grocery Store and paying the bill, Zhuang Zhou specifically instructed:
"Dad Niu, next time if you have any good medicinal herbs, please send them directly to my shop."
Old Niu bowed repeatedly:
"Okay, Mr. Zhuang, I'll definitely come to you when I find some good medicinal herbs."
This is a great thing for him.
He went into the mountains to dig medicinal herbs all year round, but many times, even if he found good stuff, no one would buy it.
In the end, I could only watch the medicinal herbs rot.
After Niu Laodi and Niu Jiujin left, Ma San came over and asked in confusion:
"Boss Zhuang, aren't we mainly selling groceries? Why are you also selling furs and medicinal herbs?"
How could Zhuang Zhou possibly tell him that these medicinal herbs were intended to be taken back to another world to sell.
After thinking for a while, he said, "These herbs are what I plan to exchange for goods. Remember, if I'm not around in the future and you bring in valuable herbs to sell, you must accept them all."
Ma San scratched his head and said, "Of course I can accept the goods, but I don't know anything about medicinal herbs!"
yes!
If someone brings inferior medicinal materials as good ones, it is impossible to accept them all!
It seems that we need to find someone who understands medicinal herbs to take charge.
…
In the evening, the store closed early, marking the end of the first day of business.
Now the house in the backyard is full of Chang'an goods he purchased in the West Market.
For example, porcelain, pottery jars, and glass sculptures.
There are also some furniture such as benches, chairs, carved screens, incense burners, etc.
As for jade and other things, I just bought some casually.
Because it is in excellent condition, it is not easy to come across.
Now I have two white jade coiled dragon jade pendants in my hand.
But for now, there is no plan to sell these two jade pendants.
Then.
In a wooden toy shop, I spent three strings of cash to buy a string of agarwood bracelets.
I don’t know if it would be valuable if I took it back to modern times.
So I bought a bunch for now and will go back to see the results.
That night, Zhuang Zhou prepared another big meal for everyone.
One is braised yellow lamb and the other is stewed pheasant with mushrooms.
This is real original wild game.
This is Zhuang Zhou visiting the West Market in the afternoon and seeing the yellow sheep caught by the hunter.
I bought half a piece and a fat pheasant.
Stew it over firewood and it has a rich aroma.
The only drawback is that there is no iron pot here.
Cooking is not very easy.
Zhuang Zhou made up his mind that he had to go back tonight and get a few iron pots.
Whether to sell it or not is not the issue at hand, the key is that you can use it yourself.
After all, I will be starting a business here for a long time in the future!
Quality of life cannot be compromised either.
You have to eat well!
After dinner, Zhuang Zhou went into the house early, saying that he wanted to rest early because he had to go out to buy goods early the next morning.
In this era, it is dark everywhere at night.
This is true even though this is Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty.
In addition to the fireworks and wine alleys, it will be particularly lively at night.
The entire Chang'an city is under curfew.
In other words, there are basically no people walking on the streets.
Zhuang Zhou lay in the room for a while, but he really couldn't sleep well.
