Chapter 692 (Page 1/2)
Lin Man couldn't help laughing when she saw Huo Qingci's distressed look.
She shook her head slightly, thinking to herself, this guy is really surprised by something he hasn't seen before. What a small expense! You know, such a consumption level is nothing unusual in a bustling port city.
Huo Qingci worked hard every month, but the salary he received was only a pitiful hundred or so yuan.
In the remote Hong Kong Island, even the most ordinary people can get at least two to three thousand yuan in minimum wage per month, not to mention those with high incomes, some of whom can even earn tens of thousands of yuan a month!
"Qingci, let me tell you, this level of consumption is now common in foreign countries and in our port city.
It’s not uncommon for those truly wealthy tycoons to spend thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars on a meal!
The total cost of our meal today is less than 300 yuan, so don't keep it in your heart!" Lin Man patiently comforted Huo Qingci.
Hearing this, Huo Qingci's eyes widened and he asked suspiciously, "Manman, are you serious? Is the cost of living in Hong Kong really that high?"
Lin Man nodded without hesitation and answered affirmatively, "Of course! In Hong Kong, people would spend hundreds or even thousands of yuan to buy a bottle of high-end foreign liquor!
Qingci, think about it, why would the original owner sell the western-style building here and go to Hong Kong City to develop? Isn't it because it is much more developed than our Hai City? "
Huo Qingci then seemed to suddenly remember something and quickly asked, "Manman, I remember you mentioned before that someone would sell Cordyceps that costs over a hundred yuan per jin to Hong Kong, and then the price would soar to one or two thousand yuan per jin. Is that true?"
"That's right, the price of Cordyceps really changes every quarter.
Take our country for example. Right now it’s only about 100 yuan per catty, but by next year, it may rise to 300 or 400 yuan per catty.
If we push it back a year, it might be around 500 or 600 yuan per kilogram!"
Hearing this, Huo Qingci opened his mouth in surprise and exclaimed several times: "Oh my! This price increase is too outrageous!"
Then, Huo Qingci seemed to have suddenly thought of something and excitedly said to Lin Man, "Manman, why don't we just stock up on some Cordyceps? The price is soaring, and if we don't buy more now, we'll lose a lot later!"
When Lin Man heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up and she thought Huo Qingci's suggestion was quite good.
After a moment's thought, she asked, "Qingci, I remember you mentioned before that your classmate's family is in the medicinal herb business, right? Do they often go to Tibet to buy Cordyceps?"

Huo Qingci nodded quickly and said, "Yes, yes, the herbal medicine company they run is still a public-private partnership.
However, if we want to purchase in large quantities, it might be a bit difficult, but if we only need a few dozen kilograms, I think my classmates should be able to help us find a solution."
Lin Man was secretly delighted and hurriedly urged, "That's great! When you get back, ask your friend to send us a few dozen kilograms."
In fact, if Tibet wasn't so far away and transportation wasn't inconvenient, Lin Man really wanted to go there in person to purchase Cordyceps.
Moreover, if conditions permit, she would like to purchase hundreds of kilograms at one time.
Lin Man was thinking that if she had the chance to go to Hong Kong in two years, she would take these Cordyceps to Hong Kong and sell them.
If the current market conditions continue to develop, the cash I have on hand will be able to increase by at least 10 to 20 times!
Just thinking about it, Lin Man could no longer contain her excitement and anticipation.
Lin Man wondered if she really used all her cash to buy Cordyceps, what would she do when buying a shop in the future?
"Qingci, did Director Zhao tell you where there's a shop selling it?"
"Manman, the shops in good locations are only for rent and not for sale. Other shops are empty. I don't think it's worth buying them, so I haven't bought any yet."
"Qingci, go pay your respects to Director Zhao during the New Year and hang out more! You should still buy shops and Western-style buildings in good locations. They can also be rented out somewhere. In short, you won't lose out if you buy them."
"Manman, if I don't have enough money to buy a house one day, I'll sell that century-old ginseng!"
"Sell it, I still have plenty of space."
There are plenty of thousand-year-old ginseng in the medicinal fields of the foggy space, not to mention this hundred-year-old ginseng.
As long as there is space, she has no shortage of ginseng. It would be nice to sell a hundred-year-old ginseng and exchange it for a house.
Now save more money in your hand, buy whatever you want, anyway you won’t lose money.
If she only had a few ginseng plants in her space and no one would be around if she sold them, she would definitely not sell them.
The problem is that there are huge tracts of ginseng in her space medicinal fields. She doesn't dare to dig those that are tens of thousands of years old, and she is reluctant to dig those that are thousands of years old. She can only dig out those that are hundreds of years old, and she can pick out those that are decades old at will.
She lacked everything except cash. She wanted to have more cash on hand so she could do big business in Hong Kong, where money was much easier to make than in China.
She must go to Hong Kong City. Once she makes money there, she will buy land and build a house there.
Life is endless, struggle is endless, her mission is to make more money, to save more supplies for the space. In her next life, she can still live a life of luxury.
