Bai Fan’s building is indeed the tallest building in the entire medicinal materials town. As soon as the projection was released, everyone in front of the building saw the words.
"Looking to buy a large amount of natural Chen stone, bright core grass, extreme fog flower, and sky bush leaf..."
"Large quantity, good price, negotiable price."
…
In just a moment, almost everyone in the town was talking about it.
"Hiss! Who on earth is actually buying large quantities of these rare items, such as natural Chen stone, bright core grass, extreme fog flower, and sky bush leaf?"
"Yes, natural Chen stone, bright core grass, extreme fog flower, and sky bush leaf, these are all high-quality goods. Not to mention that they are very valuable, but the quantity is not that large even in normal times."
"That's right. I heard from Old Shen last time that they seemed to have stockpiled more than ten kilograms of Extreme Mist Flowers last time, and they were almost trapped in it. Fortunately, they had quite a bit of savings, so they held on for half a year before selling this batch of goods."
"It's already good enough to be able to get rid of it. Many newcomers who don't know the rules of the trade have been deliberately set up and have fallen into the trap one by one."
"Could it be that the guy who purchased these medicinal herbs was deliberately tricked again?"
…
After a long while, someone finally found out who was doing the purchasing.
“He’s the person who rented the building?”
"No way, could it be that what he said was right?"
"Haha~ You even dare to rent that building. Could it be that you met another guy who is not afraid of death?"
…
In a small herbal medicine store in Yaocai Town, a fat middle-aged man was looking at the people hurrying by on the street with a worried look on his face.
In a short period of time, he saw that the shop opposite had completed three or four purchase orders, and each order was worth more than 100,000 star coins.
If it were half a year ago, he would not have taken the wholesale of medicinal materials worth 100,000 star coins seriously. Although 100,000 star coins are not a small amount, they are just wholesalers. After deducting the cost, they can't make much from 100,000 star coins.
But now, let alone an order of 100,000 or 20,000 star coins, there is no order for several days.
Thinking of this, he sighed again and looked back at the medicinal herbs in the shop. There were not many medicinal herbs in the whole shop, and most of the grids were filled with the same kind of medicinal herbs.
This bloated middle-aged man, named Hong Juncheng, is a medicinal material merchant who has recently settled in the medicinal material town. When he first arrived, in order to grab some customers, he sold medicinal materials at a 10% lower price. Unexpectedly, because of this reason, he was deliberately set up a trap.
Half a year ago, a group of people came to the store and said they wanted to purchase 100 kilograms of natural chen stone. This kind of medicinal material is expensive and not easy to sell. Hong Juncheng didn't want to do this business, but the other party took out a pharmacy qualification certificate and said that they were a pharmacy specializing in natural chen stone. He took it reluctantly.
Because the other party put down a deposit of 10 million.
It was precisely because of this batch of deposits, plus the qualification certificate of the pharmacy, that Hong Juncheng seemed to be red-eyed. He thought at the time that even if the other party did not come to pick up the goods, he could still earn 10 million for free.
Unexpectedly, after Hong Juncheng mortgaged the goods in the store and finally collected all the natural Chen stones, the other party disappeared, as if he wanted to throw the 10 million into the water.
In order to collect this batch of goods, Hong Jun mortgaged all the goods in the store. When the time came, the other party did not come to pick up the goods, and the store that provided the natural Chen stone did not want the natural Chen stone back, but only the goods he had mortgaged.
Only then did Hong Juncheng realize that he had been set up as a trap.
They are planning to drive him out of the medicinal materials town at a low cost of 10 million.
But Hong Juncheng is also a ruthless man. He knows very well that since the other party has invested 10 million, he will have to rely on other means to get it back in the end, so he gritted his teeth and held on, wanting to see who would give up first.
Unexpectedly, this delay lasted for half a year. Not only did the other party not show up, it seemed that they didn't even care about the 10 million. This worried Hong Juncheng because the store had already run out of funds.
"Boss, boss, something big has happened."
Suddenly, a clerk ran in from outside.
Hong Juncheng looked up at the clerk and couldn't help but sigh again. There were originally seven or eight clerks in the store, but now there is only one left. If it weren't for the usual moving of things, he would have fired this person as well.
However, considering the funds in the store, this day is probably not far away.
"Boss, someone outside is buying a large amount of natural Chen stone." The clerk shouted excitedly.
Huh! Upon hearing this, Hong Juncheng stood up suddenly. This violent movement made his fat body tremble: "You...what did you just say?"
"Boss, someone is buying a large amount of natural Chen stone. Large quantities will be discounted!" The clerk was panting, but his words were clear.
"Really? Where?" Hong Juncheng's eyes instantly turned red, like a rabbit's eyes, unable to hide the excitement in his heart.
"In that building, I heard that the people who rented the building wanted to buy it, and they were not only buying natural chen stones, but also..."
Before the clerk finished speaking, Hong Juncheng's feet seemed to step on a charcoal basin, and he ran towards the building in a hurry, leaving only one sentence: "You stay here and collect all the natural Chen stones."
Near the building.
After Liang Zeyu projected the words onto the front of the building, a lot of people immediately gathered around.
"Natural Chen Stone, Bright Core Grass, Extreme Mist Flower, and Sky Bush Leaf, these are all medicinal herbs that are usually hard to sell. Who would hoard them in large quantities at once?"
"Yes, in this world, anyone who hoards these things will soon go bankrupt."
"Wasn't there a fat guy who was tricked into hoarding a batch of natural Chen stones last time? If he comes here and sells them, he can definitely double the money." Suddenly, someone in the crowd whispered.
"He dares!" Immediately, someone shook his head and said, "Even if that fat guy really dares to sell it, someone will definitely come and make trouble before it's sold out."
Although the two men spoke in low voices, the fat man they were talking about was not far behind them and heard everything they said.
Hong Juncheng's face turned purple, he clenched his fists, his eyes were red, and his breathing became heavier.
It turned out that everyone in the town already knew what was going on, and he was the only one who was kept in the dark. Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth, no longer caring about what the outcome would be, and pushed the crowd away with both hands, ready to move forward.
Now, his shop was almost at the point of bankruptcy. Even if he didn't try to make a profit, as long as he sold the batch of natural Chen stones, he could return to his hometown and become a rich man, instead of being driven out of the medicine town with nothing.
"You are purchasing natural Chen stone. I have a hundred kilograms here!" Hong Juncheng shouted loudly.
When he shouted like that, the people around him suddenly fell silent and made way for him.
Lin Tao asked Liang Zeyu to release the words, but no one came for a long time, and his brows were furrowed. Suddenly, he heard someone shouting that he had 100 kilograms of natural Chen stone, and his eyes lit up.
Turning around, he saw a fat man with a hideous face walking out from the crowd. His eyes were red, as if his parents had died, which surprised Lin Tao.
Even so, after being stunned for a moment, Lin Tao still smiled and walked forward: "Do you have 100 kilograms of natural Chen stone?"
"That's right, I now have a hundred kilograms of natural Chen stone, as long as you can afford the price... No, if you are willing to eat it all, I am willing to give it to you at 20% lower than the cost price." Hong Juncheng gritted his teeth.
Hearing this, Lin Tao was greatly surprised.
The normal selling price of natural Chen stone is more expensive than that of Tianxing Grass, Linhehua and Piaowu Grass, which is about ten thousand star coins per penny. With this calculation, one kilogram will cost at least one million star coins.
In other words, one hundred kilograms of natural Chen stone has a total value of at least 100 million yuan.
The person in front of him not only wanted to sell it at cost price, but also wanted to sell it 20% lower than the cost price? What on earth had happened to this guy that he was selling natural chen stone at such a low price?
This made Lin Tao a little alert.
Lin Tao narrowed his eyes, and his muscles bulged. He said in a cold voice: "If you really have natural Chen stone, let alone selling it at cost price, even if the price is a little higher, I will take it all. But if you use some fake goods to deceive me, then..."
"Who said it's fake?" Hong Juncheng's face immediately turned pale. "No one in the entire medicinal materials town has fake goods. I'm not afraid to tell you frankly that if someone hadn't deliberately set a trap for me, I wouldn't have been trapped in this 100 kilograms of natural Chen stone."
“In a word, as long as you dare to buy, I, Hong Juncheng, am not afraid of offending people and will sell it on the spot!”
"Oh?" Lin Tao remained calm and quickly glanced at the people around him. He saw that each of them had a nervous look on their faces and did not say a word.
"Lin Tao." At this time, Liang Zeyu walked to Lin Tao and whispered a few words: "I heard that some people in the medicinal materials town will deliberately set traps to make those who don't know the rules fall into them, and then go bankrupt and leave the town. What he said should be true."
After hearing what Liang Zeyu said, Lin Tao's tone also slowed down. He nodded: "Take me to have a look. If the goods are of good quality, I can buy them at cost price."
"Okay." Hong Juncheng nodded excitedly and agreed.
However, before Hong Juncheng turned around, a burst of hurried footsteps suddenly came from the crowd.
Lin Tao and others turned their heads and saw that the crowd around them had once again made way for an empty road, from which a group of fierce-looking strong men walked out. The man in front had a hideous scar on his face.
Seeing these people coming, the people around them all shook their heads secretly and moved away.
"Oh, I seem to hear someone say that he is not afraid of offending others and wants to give away the natural Chen stone in his hand?" The ferocious man with a scar on his face stared at Hong Juncheng with a mocking smile.
"You...you...are you guys?"
Hong Juncheng seemed to recognize the person in front of him. His originally red face suddenly turned as white as paper, completely bloodless.
Seeing that the visitor had ill intentions, Lin Tao took a few steps forward and stood in front of Hong Juncheng. It was not easy for someone to come and sell natural Chen stone, and such a large amount at one time, how could Lin Tao let anyone destroy it.
The ferocious scarred man sneered a few times, and looked at Lin Tao coldly with his cold eyes: "Get out of the way, I will settle your account later. Now I will talk to Boss Hong about the rules of the Herbal Medicine Town."
