"Haha, okay Brother Wu, I won't argue with you today. I'll treat you another day." Li Yongyuan laughed.
The most luxurious box in the Han Dynasty covers an area of more than 100 square meters.
The dishes are specialties, and Li Yongyuan will be the one to prepare them personally.
Li Yongyuan also specially took out two bottles of his treasured Feitian Moutai.
"Yongyuan, it's such a waste for just the two of us to drink such good wine." Zhang Ziang said, "Can you change to something more ordinary?"
"Xiao Chen is a high school student, so I can understand why he doesn't drink, but what about Brother Wu? Wu Bancheng, Brother Wu, who can drink all over Jiangcheng without any rivals, doesn't drink?" Li Yongyuan said with a smile.
"I've quit." Wu Zicong quickly waved his hand: "I'm going to quit smoking and drinking from now on, so don't waste this good wine."
"Hey, Brother Wu, this is not your style. How can you quit just like that?" Zhang Ziang looked a little surprised.
"It's not that I want to quit, but reality doesn't allow it. I had a checkup yesterday and found lung nodules and tumors. There's a possibility of cancer."
Wu Zicong smiled bitterly and said, "So from now on, I can't bear the nickname Wu Bancheng anymore."
"What happened to the tumor? Is it serious?" Li Yongyuan was also surprised.
"The experts said to observe for half a year. If it doesn't work, we can just cut it out." Wu Zicong smiled and said, "It's okay, but you really can't smoke or drink anymore."
"Well, it seems that Angkor will not be able to have this good wine today." Li Yongyuan said with some regret.
"Alright, drinking is bad for your health, let's just eat today." Wu Zicong said with a smile, "Let's have tea instead of wine and give a toast to Brother Xiao. He's my savior."
"Speaking of this, I have to toast Brother Xiao. He is also my savior." Li Yongyuan was not willing to be outdone.
"Brothers, I feel ashamed to be on the same level as you." Xiao Chen quickly stood up.
"I'm still in high school. When I enter society, I'll need the help of my brothers."
In his previous life, Xiao Chen worked hard at social events for the Xiao family's company.
Although they are good at dealing with people and the ways of the world, these people in front of them are not considered to be the top wealthy families in Jiangcheng.
But they are definitely well-known figures, especially Li Yongyuan, who seems to have connections in Yanjing.
Moreover, these people are generous and worth making friends with.
"Brother, you are so polite. If you need me in the future, just let me know and I will do it for you in minutes." Wu Zicong patted Xiao Chen's shoulder and motioned him to sit down.
Zhang Ziang and his companions were already acquaintances, and after a few words, the atmosphere immediately became lively.
After having a good meal and a drink, it was already past one in the afternoon.
Just as they were about to leave, Li Yongyuan said with a smile, "Everyone, I have a Bazhentang themed trade show here today. Are you sure you don't want to join in the fun?"
"Is it the Bazhentang run by the Ye family, a renowned Chinese medicine family? Many of the Beijing-branded Chinese medicines are based on their authorized formulas?" Xiao Chen asked.
"Yes, have you heard of Xiao Chen too?" Li Yongyuan asked.
"Bazhentang is such a big name, how could I not have heard of it? It is said that the best-selling Chinese medicine they sell in the market is just ordinary stuff."
Xiao Chen said, "Their national treasures of Chinese medicinal herbs are all rare treasures, such as Ganoderma lucidum and century-old ginseng. However, these treasures are very rare and are only auctioned on certain occasions."
"That's right." Li Yongyuan slapped his thigh. "Their national treasure-level Chinese medicine is only auctioned at high-end venues."
"There happens to be an auction today, right in our Han Dynasty banquet hall, starting at 2 pm."
"Then we have to go and join in the fun. It is said that these Chinese medicines are real treasures that cannot be bought even with money."
Zhang Ziang also became interested: "Apart from anything else, I have a relative who bought a hundred-year-old wild ginseng from Bazhentang a few years ago."
"His father was already critically ill, and the doctors had given up on him. But he cut a piece of wild ginseng and put it in his mouth, and managed to hold on for three more days and three nights."
"Then I must join in the fun." Wu Zicong's eyes lit up.
The few of them hit it off immediately and rushed to the Bazhentang exhibition in the banquet hall.
The main focus of this high-end auction house is health preservation.
And it is specifically aimed at people from Jiangcheng's upper class society, so an invitation is required to enter.
Of course, these problems were nothing to Li Yongyuan, and he could still get the four invitations.
There weren't many people at the venue, and there were a dozen or so display cabinets of various sizes.
Various precious medicinal materials are displayed in the display cabinets.
Wow, the usually precious ginseng, deer antler, ganoderma lucidum and wild ginseng are common here.
There are also Tianshan snow lotus, snow frog, Western Region ginseng, and top-quality cordyceps.
The whole room was filled with the aroma of medicine.
The national treasures in Bazhen Hall are indeed the top ones in China. The precious Chinese medicines on display are truly more precious than gold.
"Hey guys, just watch for a while. I'm going to talk to their organizer." After coming in, Li Yongyuan said hello and left.
"Xiao Chen, do you know Chinese medicine?" Zhang Ziang and Wu Zicong turned around and looked at Xiao Chen.
Because in their eyes, Xiao Chen is now an omnipotent being.
"I understand a little." Xiao Chen nodded.
"Well, it seems we came to the right place today. Look at these things, is there anything worth buying?" The two were delighted.
With Xiao Chen here, I will definitely be able to buy good things today.
"Look first, look first." Xiao Chen coughed lightly. Did he reveal too much?
The two of them chuckled and looked around.
Xiao Chen was also wandering around inside, searching for his memories of the Bazhentang auction.
"Xiao Chen, what are you doing here?" At this moment, a familiar voice came.
