Visiting Chinese dicine Market Again
TL: Hedonist
During their journey to the market, a few faces were blushing deep red. Those students indeed were thinking too much. Their master really was treating He Mo's illness. They have heard much gossips in school that there was a scar on He Mo's face, and therefore she always had a mask on. Now that she doesn't wear her mask anymore, that would only indicate one possibility, Guo Huai had cured He Mo of her illness.
"Master's dical ability has exceeded beyond our ability to comprehend. Xiao Xiao, you must treasure your ti here at the Clinic of No Treatnt. In the future, you na will be placed in textbooks of the history of Chinese dicine," He Mo said smilingly. Ever since her childhood, He Mo had never been so cheerful. Which girl doesn't wish to appear beautiful? That was the first ti even since ten years old He Mo took off her mask and talked like a normal human being.
"At first we even thought that sothing happened to you.." Jia Xiaoxiao said in a blushed face. The other in the car also lowered their heads. Those people indeed had misunderstood Guo Huai.
"Today I'm not going to ask too much from you all. Everyone will get be allocated a budget of a hundred thousand yuan. I believe by now, everyone should have so idea of the price of the dicinal ingredients. Go ahead and buy. I hope that what I taught you all yesterday will make a difference," Guo Huai said with a smile. "And of course, if you found sothing good, just co to if you don't have enough cash. Haha."
"Boss, those students ca here again," a few youths strolling around in the parking lot rushed into the market, and delivered the 'good news' to their respective bosses.
"Haha. I thought that it'll be so days before they'd co here. Didn't expect that they returned so soon!" a few rchants said laughingly. Cash cows, what a bunch of cash cows!
"Hey boss, the pigntation of this Female ginseng you're selling isn't quite right. Do you have others? Otherwise I'll go to so other shops," Su Tu said smilingly. He was at the shop which cheated him the last ti.
"Little Brother, these stuffs is the sa like the last ti. Try and sll the scent. The colours is definitely genuine," the boss replied smilingly with a thick face.
"Boss, this is the water steeped with your Female ginseng. If you dare to drink this, I will buy all the Female ginseng in this bag," Su Tu said loudly, attracting a crowd that surrounded the rchant.
"This student, please co inside for a talk." The rchant gave another good look at Su Tu. Eh? I did recognize him correctly. It's the sa student that ca here last ti. How could there be such huge changes in a night? The rchant dared not to drink the water steeped with his Female ginseng. Although it wouldn't kill, it'd still be unpleasant to the stomach after drinking it. Therefore in the end, the rchant inford a few of his fellow rchants about his encounter, and packed a big bag of top-notch Female ginseng for Su Tu. He didn't even dared to charge Su Tu a penny more that it should cost.
"Fellow villager! Do you have more of those wild ginseng? I want so more," Chen Jiadi said smilingly. He again visited the shop of this person from the "sa hotown".
"Bro, co in! That ginseng was quite good wasn't it? I still have quite so of them. Here, you pick them yourself," the 'fellow villager' pulled opened a few big boxes filled with ginseng.
"Elder sister, these ginseng are all cultivated ginseng. Do you have sothing better?" Chen Jiadi asked smilingly.
"Oh. You want wild ginseng? Alright, hold on, I'll grab them for ya." As she spoke, the woman moved a big box from a shop shelf. Inside the box were her collections of ginseng for so years. There were a hundred sothing ginseng in there but only around ten were actually wild ginseng, the other were all fakes. She wasn't afraid that this student before her eyes would pick them out because she had so idea of his abilities. She just gotta count the money afterwards.
"Elder sister, these ginseng are also selling for ten thousand each?" Chen Jiadi asked while he held up a ginseng similar to the one he bought last ti.
"Big brother, I really wasn't swinding you for ten thousand a piece. We are both from the sa hotown, so I will give it to you for ten thousand each. Pick them yourself," the woman said in a honest tone.
Chen Jiadi revealed a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and began to inspect each and every ginseng in the box. After around half an hour, when the female rchant ca back to check on Chen Jiadi, her face turned ashen. Other than the two pieces which he chose in the beginning, the others were all genuine wild ginseng older than six years. Ten thousand? Perhaps a hundred thousand wasn't enough to buy just one genuine wild ginseng.
"Fellow villager, I'll take these ten ginseng. The money is here. I will visit you again when I have ti!" Chen Jiadi said smilingly as he placed the cash on the table. He took the ginseng and was leaving the shop.
"Big brother! Stop! You can't leave! I'm not going to sell these ginseng anymore!" the won yelled loudly in a sobbing voice.
"Not selling? I have the sound recording here. I'm not robbing you, and I've even pay you the money. How can you just suddenly say that you're not selling?" Chen Jiadi continued loudly, "Yesterday I bought a cultivated ginseng for ten thousand yuan, but I didn't say a thing even though it's only worth a hundred yuan. And today, all of a sudden, you want to tell that you're not selling these? That won't do, does it?"
Guo Huai heard the quarrel between Chen Jiadi and the woman, and so he smilingly walked to them. He knew that Chen Jiadi was there to seek vengeance, and he succeeded.
"Big brother, what I did yesterday was wrong, I apologize. I can give you one wild ginseng as compensation, but please, you can't take all these!" the woman yelled as she pulled Chen Jiadi.
"Jiadi, one should spare others whenever that's possible. She promised to give you one wild ginseng, so just let it pass. Go on and look at other stuffs," Guo Huai said smilingly to Chen Jiadi. He nodded his head lightly, and the woman gratefully bowed to Guo Huai.
"Owner, who didn't you let teach the woman a lesson?" Chen Jiadi asked in a low voice after leaving the shop with Guo Huai.
"Those ginseng in her shop are still rather ok. At least they are cultivated ginseng, instead of those ginseng with its essence completely extracted. There's greed in everyone's heart, but this person isn't that bad. Try not to burn bridges whenever you could, as perhaps you might have dealings with her soday in the future. Who knows if you really will co here to buy ginseng later on? But I'm sure that she wouldn't try to swindle you again," Guo Huai said smilingly. Chen Jiadi nodded his head in agreent to his reasoning.
After around an hour of shopping, the eighteen student all returned with a few bags of Chinese dicines. This ti, they did a pretty good job. Other than a few who bought so dicinal herbs with average potency, most of them bought quality stuffs. Guo Huai nodded his head in great satisfaction in their performance. Those rchants which the students visited, all had ashen expressions. They thought they'd make a small fortune but it turned out that were ruthlessly slaughtered by these students.
"Mr. Owner, today is such a satisfying day! Perhaps you didn't saw it, but the rchant who sold dicinal ingredients yesterday, he looked like like how a wolf would look at a sheep, like I've already blindly shoved my money into his pockets. But in the end, his face turned so dark! And so with other rchants from other shops. All they could do were to helplessly look at as I fill my pockets with those higher quality dicinal ingredients from their shop. Haha!" Lu Feng, a Chinese dical school student, said with a smile. The others too uniformly nodded their heads. It seems like this ti, they've all vented our their anger.
