Chapter 82 Yaodu Hotel (First Order)
When the train arrived at Zhangshu, it was already past seven in the evening. Gao Mingcheng went back and forth several times and finally moved all the medicinal materials off the train.
Huang Dazhi looked guilty and uneasy because Gao Mingcheng didn't let him carry the herbs because his arm was injured.
Gao Mingcheng paid him one hundred yuan to make a trip, but he didn't help at all and even caused trouble for Gao Mingcheng.
Seeing Gao Mingcheng carrying two bags of herbs on one shoulder and one bag in one hand, he quickly said, "I can carry one bag!"
He only injured one hand, and the other hand was still fine. Gao Mingcheng glanced at him and put the herbs in his hand on his shoulder so that he could hold on to it more easily.
But despite this, Gao Mingcheng still had to carry three bags. Gao Zhuang was not very strong, so carrying two bags was already a struggle for him.
"Let's go, let's get out of the station first." Gao Mingcheng said, and led the two of them out of the train station. The current train stations are very simple, unlike the big train stations in the previous life. It takes a long time to get out of the station.
After leaving the station, Gao Mingcheng relied on his experience in his previous life to find a cheap hotel near the station. After putting the herbs in the room, he went out to find something to eat.
After eating, I didn’t dare to walk far and went back to my room.
Gao Mingcheng was not in a good mood. The criminal named Zhao Han said harsh words to him, but when asked again afterwards, he refused to say more.
As for the owner of the black bag, no clues were found.
Finally, the flight attendant comforted him, saying that the black bag was now in their hands, and even if the owner of the black bag knew about it, he would not cause trouble for him.
But - this is just for reference. Whether it will cause trouble or not depends on what the owner of the black bag thinks.
If the other party is vindictive and thinks that he is the one who caused the trouble, then you must come find him.
Now that he was in the light and the enemy was in the dark, there was no point in thinking too much, so Gao Mingcheng asked Gao Zhuang and Huang Dazhi to go to bed.
That night, Gao Mingcheng remained alert, but nothing happened.
The next morning, the sunlight shone through the window. When the first ray of sunlight shone on the earth, Gao Mingcheng had already woken up.
When he was away from home, he didn't meditate, but he was used to getting up early. It's just that the space here is small and he can't practice boxing.
After washing up, Gao Mingcheng woke up Gao Zhuang and Huang Dazhi.
Today is October 15th, and the Pharmaceutical Fair is from October 16th to 18th. It is necessary to come a day in advance, because I need to find out some information about the Pharmaceutical Fair.
Gao Mingcheng had never participated in it in his previous life, so he didn't know much about it. So while having breakfast, he asked the locals about it.
He was good at talking and quickly got some information.
Zhangshu is the capital of medicine, and has been a distribution center for medicinal materials since the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The Medicine Fair is also very famous. Due to some reasons, it was suspended for 16 years and was resumed in 1980. In 1982, the ten-story Medicine Capital Hotel was built as a place for food and accommodation for the Medicine Fair.
The medicinal materials trading market covers an area of more than 25,000 square meters, with more than 2,000 stalls and more than 200 exhibition halls. From then on, the medicine fair had a formal and fixed trading place and accommodation.
After hearing this, Gao Mingcheng felt relieved. Next, they just needed to take the medicinal materials to Yaodu Hotel.
After some effort, they arrived at Yaodu Hotel before noon.
The three of them stood in front of the Yaodu Hotel and looked up.
Gao Zhuang's face was filled with shock, and so was Huang Dazhi. A bumpkin from a mountain village, how could he have seen a ten-story building?
Even in their county town, there are no buildings this tall!
Only Gao Mingcheng looked calm. He was used to seeing tall buildings in later times, so a ten-story building was considered very ordinary to him.
"Let's go in and check in first." Gao Mingcheng patted Gao Zhuang and Huang Dazhi on the shoulders, motioning them to go in first.
"Hey." Gao Zhuang responded, but he didn't look confident and looked timid.
Yaodu Hotel was originally built for the Pharmaceutical Fair. Now that it is close to the Pharmaceutical Fair, it is filled with medicinal material merchants from all over the country, both big businessmen and small vendors.
Gao Mingcheng and his friends were small vendors, and they lived on the floor where the small vendors lived.
After checking in, Gao Mingcheng began to move among the crowds, actively inquiring about various information and memorizing the prices of various medicinal materials.
As he thought, the prices of Ganoderma lucidum and Poria cocos were quite good. After all, these two kinds of medicines are quite famous. In addition, the gardenia produced in their area is also very popular in the medicinal materials market.
Medicinal materials are divided by their place of origin. The same medicinal material, but from different places of origin, may have different prices. While inquiring for information, Gao Mingcheng also learned that a kind of Houttuynia cordata unique to their area is also extremely valuable.
Houttuynia cordata can be harvested twice a year. This time he also brought some dried products, but not much.
Gao Mingcheng was actively socializing like a diplomat, while Gao Zhuang and Huang Dazhi turned into socially anxious people, standing there not daring to speak a word.
The two men's eyes followed Gao Mingcheng unconsciously, and saw that he was able to get closer to others with just a few words, and after a few more words, they became brothers. They all looked admiring.
"My brother Mingcheng is so awesome!" Gao Zhuang's face was full of pride.
Huang Dazhi also nodded. He didn't expect that Gao Mingcheng was not only good at fighting, but also good at making friends. If he were asked to take charge, he would have no idea how to arrange things.
It was soon time for lunch, and Gao Mingcheng's new friend invited him to eat together. Gao Mingcheng naturally agreed, and the group walked towards the dining area.
When passing by Gao Zhuang, Gao Mingcheng gave Gao Zhuang a look, and Gao Zhuang immediately understood and nodded.
After Gao Mingcheng and the others left, Gao Zhuang said to Huang Dazhi, "Let's go eat too."
During the meal, Gao Mingcheng got more information. But this information was superficial and anyone who had attended the pharmaceutical trade fair would know it.
Under the guidance of his new friend, he rented a stall. He also went to the trading place in advance to check the situation and memorized the stall he rented so that he could set up the stall tomorrow morning.
At night, Gao Mingcheng came back drunk. He looked at Gao Zhuang and Huang Dazhi and said, "Take a shower and change clothes tonight to avoid body odor."
The two of them naturally agreed, and then the three of them took turns to take a shower.
Gao Zhuang sat on the clean big bed, looking a little reserved and a little excited. Yaodu Hotel was only built in 1982, and now it is 1986. The whole building is very new, and the rooms and furnishings inside are also very new, which makes Gao Zhuang feel like he is in a dream.
It also caused him to be very careful in everything, for fear of breaking things.
Gao Mingcheng lay down on the bed and felt that it was much more comfortable than the wooden bed he slept on at home. He thought that when he returned and had time, he would go into the mountains to cut some more trees and then build the house as soon as possible.
Get married, build a house, and have a baby in two years. Perfect!
PS: When I was writing the first chapter of VIP, I was sweating profusely and had an inexplicable pressure in my heart. I couldn't write a single word for a long time. Later, when I finally finished writing it, I still felt dissatisfied with many things, but I didn't know where to start with the revisions.
But after finishing this chapter, the situation will be a little better. Well, thank you friends for subscribing!
