Travel through 1990 and return to your youth
Chapter 6 Profiteering
The mountain behind Qinglian Village is extremely high. The highest point has an altitude of over a thousand meters. It is also very dangerous and the villagers would not set foot there.
The place Yi Xiaochuan wants to go this time is the highest altitude, because there is a particularly good medicinal material in that place.
Looking for the memories of his previous life, he kept climbing up.
After going through many dangers, he finally reached the top of the mountain.
Not only has the air here become thinner, but the temperature has also dropped several times, which is completely different from the climate down the mountain.
His cold hands and feet were a little numb, but he was not idle, but looked around carefully for something.
After watching for a while, I finally found something beside a bush, and quickly started digging with the sickle I carried with me.
Soon, a special medicinal material measuring seven to eight centimeters was dug out.
There are grass growing on this medicinal material, but the roots are like worms. It looks very strange. It is Cordyceps sinensis that can be compared with gold!
Cordyceps sinensis growing in the mountains is similar to wild ginseng. They are extremely precious medicinal materials. Its price can be compared with gold, but this stuff is harder to find than gold and harder to form.
In the last life, Yi Xiaochuan also accidentally discovered that he made his first pot of gold by relying on them, and it will naturally be the same this time.
Because at that time, ordinary people did not know Cordyceps sinensis at all, and people in the village had never heard of it, so no one came to mine it.
Yi Xiaochuan took out another small bag and carefully packed the dug Cordyceps sinensis.
There are not a lot of Cordyceps sinensis here, because this season is not yet the harvest time, most of them have just formed, and only a few can be dug out, and the rest must be saved for later collection.
After digging out everything he could, he checked the bag with satisfaction and found that there were only a dozen roots.
It seemed like a small amount, but it was very valuable, enough for him to make his first pot of gold.
Wrapping it up carefully, he turned around and walked down the mountain.
When they arrived at the place where they were just now, Chen Ping and Zhang Hu were still digging for medicinal herbs. The two of them had suffered a lot today, and they were complaining about Yi Xiaochuan from time to time.
"I asked you two, can you work more quickly, why are you doing so now?" Yi Xiaochuan held a piece of grass in his mouth and walked over to work together.
Chen Ping rolled his eyelids and said dissatisfied: "You are oppressing and exploiting our labor force. It is really inhumane!"
"It's inhumane, it's inhumane!" Zhang Hu also shouted.
"I resist!"
"I resist too!"
"Resistance is ineffective!"
Yi Xiaochuan gave both of them a kick in the butt. At this time, it was useless for anyone to resist and could only work honestly.
The relationship between the three of them is still very strong. They make trouble and play, but no one really strikes out.
After working for a while, they got a basket of plantains, and the three of them went down the mountain together.
Back in the village, Chen Ping wanted to run away with Zhang Hu, but Yi Xiaochuan pulled him and smiled again.
That smile made Chen Ping's hair stand on end, and he always felt that Yi Xiaochuan was plotting against him.
"Chen Ping, can you lend me your dog-bell motorcycle? I want to go to town..." Yi Xiaochuan rubbed his hands, but before he could finish his words, he was stopped by Chen Ping.
"Don't make trouble, that's my magical tool for picking up girls, don't try to take advantage of it!"
Some time ago, Chen Ping took some money from his parents and bought a dog-bell motorcycle in a hurry, just to show off and pick up girls.
You know, in those days, whoever bought a motorcycle meant that his family was rich. When young girls saw it, they wanted to sit behind it, so Chen Ping always regarded it as his tool to pick up girls.
"Chen Ping, you are not interesting enough. I treat you to drinks every time, and now I want to lend you a motorcycle. Are you so stingy?" Yi Xiaochuan pretended to be angry.
Zhang Hu also helped and said: "Yes, we and Xiaochuan are brothers, what's the matter with lending you a motorcycle?"
Chen Ping was in a dilemma. He always felt that Yi Xiaochuan was different from before. Usually he would not be so diligent, nor would he just ask people to borrow things.
However, due to the relationship between the two of them, he reluctantly agreed.
After a while, Chen Ping rode his car over to find Yi Xiaochuan. When he gave him the car key, he told him not to break it, otherwise he would end up with him.
When Yi Xiaochuan was walking away with the medicinal materials, he happened to be seen by Lin Jingrou. She looked a little disappointed when she saw him hanging out with Chen Ping and Zhang Hu again.
I thought my husband had really changed, but I didn't expect that he was still the same as before. He just talked about it, and as soon as the heat of 3 minutes passed, he returned to his true nature!
Yangliu Town is the largest town nearby. It manages dozens of villages, large and small. There is also a point in the town that specializes in purchasing medicinal materials. Villagers usually go there to trade the medicinal materials they dig up.
However, these medicine dealers are very evil, and villagers who do not understand medicinal materials can easily be deceived.
Yi Xiaochuan came here on a motorcycle, found a seat with few people, and placed plantains in front of him.
The time now is close to noon, and we have missed the best time for buying and selling medicinal materials. There are only one or two medicine dealers wandering around, they are the kind of people who pick up leaks.
"Little brother, how do you plan to sell this plantain?" A middle-aged fat man came to him, picked up the plantain, and asked in a pretentious manner.
"Fifty cents a pound!" Yi Xiaochuan glanced at him and held out five fingers.
After hearing this, the fat man smiled, shook his head and asked, "Plantain is worthless. Fifty cents is too expensive. Thirty cents per pound. Do you want to sell it? If so, I will take it all from you."
"Hmph, three cents per pound? Do you think I'm stupid?"
"Do not sell!"
Yi Xiaochuan sneered and shook his head decisively. These were profiteers and he would not sell them.
Don't think that [-] cents doesn't make any difference, but in those days, pork only cost one yuan a pound. The price has almost doubled, so naturally it is not sold.
He understands medical skills and medicinal materials, and naturally also understands the market. The normal price of plantain is only [-] cents per pound, and it can reach [-] cents per pound when it is higher.
The smiling fat man's expression froze a lot. He thought he was looking at a stupid green man, but he didn't expect it to be an inverted spike. He couldn't be fooled at all.
"Look, it's already this time. If you don't sell it to me, I'm afraid you won't be able to sell it today!" The fat man stood up and said again.
Yi Xiaochuan ignored him at all. Such people were profiteers. They thought they could lower the price by just saying a few words?
In the end, the fat man wisely left. After a while, another drug dealer came and asked the price first. This time, the price was [-] cents per pound.
Yi Xiaochuan didn't sell it to him, because this drug dealer was in the same group as the fat man just now, and the two profiteers wanted to trick him.
"Little brother, just wait here and see if you can sell it today?" the drug dealer said with a hint of ridicule, then turned and left.
In this town, drug dealers have colluded long ago to monopolize the market price. If you just say a word, others will not come to collect it. In the end, they achieve the purpose of intimidation and charge medicinal materials at low prices.
Sure enough, Yi Xiaochuan stood here for a long time, and no one came to ask about the price. He seemed to be completely isolated.
These medicine dealers are too dark-hearted. If they can't sell it in this town, they will have to go to other towns. He believes that he can always sell the medicinal materials today.
Just as he was packing his things and preparing to leave, a woman appeared in front of him.
The woman is about 30 years old, tall and wearing a lace cheongsam. She looks very elegant. Although she is nearly thirty, she looks like she is in her early twenties.
"Little brother, your plantain looks very good, how much does it cost per pound?" The woman smiled and squatted down, picked up the medicinal materials and smelled them and asked. It was obvious that she was also an expert.
But as soon as the woman squatted down, her slit cheongsam faced Yi Xiaochuan directly.
Yi Xiaochuan was also stupid. He glanced subconsciously and almost spit out blood from his mouth.
The place Yi Xiaochuan wants to go this time is the highest altitude, because there is a particularly good medicinal material in that place.
Looking for the memories of his previous life, he kept climbing up.
After going through many dangers, he finally reached the top of the mountain.
