Chapter 160: Chapter 160 God of Wealth
Having thought it through, Luo Qiao found a secluded spot, applied makeup in her space, pulled out a hundred-year-old ginseng from the medicinal garden, placed it in a box she found in her space, and then left the space headed for the Black Market.
Luo Qiao thought that she couldn’t always rely on the medicinal herbs in her space, but she would need a lot of money in the coming period. So she decided to sell a hundred-year-old ginseng.
With the money earned, she could buy a house and still have some left over. Having extra funds would also facilitate her actions in the near future.
She had heard from Ning Rui that He Yujie had just returned from Capital City. When Luo Qiao saw him, He Yujie was fiddling with a piece of jade. Upon seeing Luo Qiao, he quickly smiled and said, "Comrade Luo has arrived, please take a seat."
The fish had helped him a great deal, not only had they opened up connections for him, but he had also made a substantial amount of money. She was like his God of Wealth to him.
He Yujie asked, "What brings you here today?"
Luo Qiao didn’t want to beat around the bush and asked directly, "Do you buy medicinal herbs here?"
He Yujie glanced at Luo Qiao’s basket and said, "That depends on what kind of medicinal herbs you have. I don’t buy common herbs; they are more trouble than they’re worth."
Luo Qiao inquired, "What if it’s ginseng?"
He Yujie’s eyes lit up instantly and he asked, "Do you really have ginseng to sell?"
Luo Qiao nodded, "What is the going rate here?"
He Yujie thought for a moment, "That’s difficult for me to say, but I can invite someone who is an expert in ginseng. Don’t worry about the price, you won’t be at a loss."
After considering for a while, Luo Qiao said, "Alright, find someone to appraise it then."
He Yujie asked in a low voice, "May I ask how old is the ginseng you have?"
Luo Qiao looked at He Yujie, "Why, you don’t take it if it’s too young or what?"
He Yujie quickly waved his hands, "No, that’s not what I mean. It’s just that someone recently asked me to find them ginseng, specifically one that is over a hundred years old, for a life-saving need. That’s why I’m excited."
Upon hearing his words and seeing his expression that didn’t seem like a lie, Luo Qiao said, "What a coincidence. The ginseng I have is indeed over a hundred years old."
After speaking, Luo Qiao took the item she had prepared in advance out of her basket, placed it on the table, and pushed it towards He Yujie, signaling him to open it and see for himself.
He Yujie turned to Ning Rui and said, "Go to Yikang Hall and bring Old Doctor Sun here, make it quick."
After Ning Rui left, He Yujie didn’t open the box to look. Instead, he stood up and paced back and forth in the room, appearing calm, but his heart was tumultuous.
If he really found a hundred-year ginseng, it would be like finding a powerful backer for himself. It was a huge favor owed to him, and people were waiting on the other side for this ginseng to save a life.
About half an hour later, Ning Rui returned with Old Doctor Sun, who entered and asked, "What’s the urgency that you had to make this old man come all this way?"
He Yujie said, "Uncle Sun, mainly because there are too many people at your place, too many eyes can complicate matters."
As he spoke, he helped the old man take a seat at the table, then pushed the box in front of him, "Please, could you take a look at the ginseng in this box and tell me how old it is?"
Upon hearing the box contained ginseng, Old Doctor Sun perked up, looked up at He Yujie as if confirming, and He Yujie nodded his head.
Old Doctor Sun then opened the box, looked at the ginseng inside, and his excitement surged. He carefully took the ginseng out of the box, pulled a magnifying glass from his pocket, and closely examined it.
It didn’t take long for Old Doctor Sun to exclaim, "Good, good, good! This is an exceptionally rare hundred-year ginseng, probably about one hundred twenty or thirty years old. This truly is a fine specimen indeed."
