The Hundred Herb Hall was the largest Chinese herbal medicine chain store in Shenhai City. All kinds of ancient and precious Chinese herbal medicines were expensive and absolutely authentic. Many wealthy businessmen and tycoons came here because of their reputation. The parking lot in front of the door was filled with luxury cars. If one did not have a few million in their pocket, they would be embarrassed to walk in.
Xiang Yufei was carrying a heavy snakeskin bag on his back. He glanced at the gilded signboard and walked in. Xiang Yufei looked like a street vendor and didn't look like a rich person at all. However, he was also a rich man with the support of the entire world's resources. He ignored the unfriendly gazes of the security guards.
Xiang Yufei quickly walked to the counter. The polite receptionist asked,"Sir, may I know what kind of Chinese herbal medicine you want to buy?”
"Not buying, but selling!"
Xiang Yufei looked nervous as if he was talking about state secrets. He covered his mouth and whispered,"Thousand year wild ginseng!"
He even secretly opened the snakeskin bag that he was holding tightly in his arms as if he was doing a trade, revealing a ginseng root with strong roots. The thick smell of herbs assaulted her face, and it was slightly fishy. The receptionist was also shocked. After two years of exposure, she more or less knew some identification methods of ginseng. At a glance, it was definitely a high-grade treasure.
Thousand-year-old wild ginseng?
Not to mention a thousand-year-old ginseng, even a hundred-year-old wild ginseng was rare. The front desk girl did not dare to be negligent. She quickly went to invite a white-haired but well-maintained medicinal appraiser. The appraiser looked at the wild ginseng in Xiang Yufei's hand and a trace of wild joy flashed behind his thick presbyopic glasses.
"Quick, please come to the VIP room!"
When Xiang Yufei took out the entire 1,000-year-old wild ginseng, the white-haired medicinal appraiser was so scared that he almost had a heart attack. His eyes were filled with extreme fanaticism. His hands trembled as he took out the 1,000-year-old ginseng from the rosewood box. He used a magnifying glass to carefully appraise every root and stem, as if he was the most fanatical believer who had seen a true god.
"My grandfather used to be a high-ranking official in the Qing Dynasty. He was even rewarded by the emperor at that time. He gave a thousand-year-old wild ginseng as a family heirloom. If it weren't for the fact that he was in a hurry to buy a house and needed money, he wouldn't have been willing to sell this family heirloom!”Xiang Yufei said without thinking.
" Good quality, really good quality…"
The smell of the medicinal herbs that assaulted his nose was incomparably thick. One whiff of it made his throat itch from thirst. It also reflected the domineering and terrifying medicinal effects of this ginseng. This was probably a thousand-year-old wild ginseng!
"According to the national standards, wild ginseng is divided into nine grades and three grades. The grades are differentiated by their quality. As long as the dried wild ginseng is greater than 25 grams, it is considered a grade. Grade, there were three grades. According to the reed, taro, body, veins, and whiskers, a first-grade wild ginseng had to have three sections of reed, no scars, and no rust... If judged according to this national standard, this wild ginseng was definitely a first-grade wild ginseng, a true wild ginseng king!”
The appraiser let out a long sigh, his face filled with fanaticism.
It had to be said that the thousand-year-old wild ginseng that Xiang Yufei had bought from the immortal world was really powerful. It was almost a spirit. Not to mention that it already had a vague human outline, the exuberant roots were like Sun Wukong's fine hair, and there were countless of them. The more roots there were, the stronger the medicinal effect was. There was no need to think about the value of this wild ginseng!
Moreover, it was a heaven-defying thousand-year-old!
It was already very rare to see a hundred-year-old wild ginseng in the famous Changbai Mountain. Now that a thousand-year-old ginseng had suddenly appeared, how could they not go crazy? And behind the Hundred Herb Hall stood a behemoth, an ancient martial arts family that had been passed down for hundreds of years. As the saying goes, poor literature and rich martial arts. The nourishing effect of the thousand-year-old wild ginseng was simply many times better than bitter cultivation!
The appraiser let out a long sigh and said sincerely,"The value of the thousand-year-old wild ginseng is immeasurable. Compared to all the thousand-year-old wild ginseng that I've seen in auctions, this thousand-year-old wild ginseng is probably one of the best in terms of appearance and medicinal efficacy. However, ordinary sales are different from auctions. The appraisal, packaging, publicity, and social network will have a significant impact. Therefore, our Hundred Herb Hall has offered a price of five million!”
Xiang Yufei suppressed the ecstasy in his heart. This price had already made him overjoyed.
He had carefully selected this ginseng from the national treasury. There were many ginsengs that looked better and had better medicinal effects than this one. However, after ten years of experience in the organization, he knew very well that it was better to be safe than sorry. Especially after the meteor shower, many ability users had awakened one after another. The country had also begun to pay attention to unusual people or things. Once the water meter was checked, no matter how big the secret was, it could not be kept.
Therefore, after Xiang Yufei bought gold a few times, he decisively gave up on this path.
The appraiser was still nagging.
The thousand-year-old ginseng was extremely rare because it had been sold for thousands of years. At the first auction of the world's collectible ginseng, the 325-year-old wild ginseng was sold for 10 million yuan. This was the highest price for a precious Chinese herbal medicine collection after a ginseng auction in May 2012, where 30 grams of hundred-year-old wild ginseng was sold for a sky-high price of 3 million.
Xiang Yufei's 1,000-year-old wild ginseng had a total of 200 grams. After all, it was not an auction. There was no packaging appraisal and publicity midway, so the price would definitely be reduced by a lot. This price was very fair! Xiang Yufei was even more overjoyed. This thousand-year-old wild ginseng was bought from a medicinal herb shop in the Imperial Capital for less than 300 golden leaves. In terms of this kind of Chinese medicinal herb, it could be said that the Immortal World was filled with wild herbs.
The most valuable items were spirit herbs and divine herbs. The thousand-year-old wild ginseng was not even on the list!
The reputation of the Hundred Herb Hall was indeed strong. They did not lower the price or maliciously suppress it. When Xiang Yufei left, there was already an additional five million yuan in his card. He had become a tycoon in one day. Xiang Yufei's face was full of smiles.
"What a rare treasure…"
The white-haired appraiser was still rubbing the thousand-year-old wild ginseng in fascination. He clicked his tongue in wonder." I've made a killing this time. But…why does this ginseng feel so fresh, as if it was dried recently…"
He frowned and thought for a while, then shook his head and gave up on the idea.
Not long after, a young man in a white suit walked out of the inner hall. His face was pale. As soon as he walked in, he smelled a dense medicinal fragrance. His eyes immediately widened and he exclaimed repeatedly,"What a rich medicinal fragrance. Could it be that he found a spiritual medicine?”
The appraiser quickly stood up respectfully and said,"Third Young Master! I just bought a high-quality thousand-year-old wild ginseng. Please take a look.”
The young man who was called the Third Young Master was pleasantly surprised, and his lips curled into a gentle smile."Good! That was great! Right now, I've reached a bottleneck in my cultivation. I'm stuck at the barrier of the middle stage of Light Jin and can't move at all. I need medicinal herbs that contain rich Yuan Qi to nourish me! It was a pity that there was only one. If he had more, it would only be a matter of time before he broke through to internal force!”
The appraiser didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Did he think that the thousand-year-old wild ginseng was a common foxtail grass that could be found everywhere? He was already lucky to have obtained one. How could he dare to ask for more?
" This was sold by a young man just now. I heard that his ancestor was a high-ranking official in the Qing Dynasty..." the appraiser said.
The third young master's lips curled up slightly as he said indifferently,"You believe such an obvious excuse? I reckon that person still has quite a few! Our Huo Family Martial Arts School is the local tyrant of Shenhai City. This kind of old ginseng is so important to martial artists! Immediately contact the dojo and follow that person to forcefully purchase the medicinal herbs in his hands.”
"Yes, sir!"
The white-bearded appraiser quickly agreed respectfully and hurriedly dialed the number.# Date:09 27 2019 12:15PM
