Happy Life in Siheyuan

Chapter 831 Do you regret it now?

"Snapped!"

The next moment, before Yin Siqi could think of what to do next, Lin Yi reached out and closed the wooden box.

He looked at Yin Siqi's shocked look with a nonchalant expression, and then asked softly: "Now that I have seen the things, can you call your store manager over?"

"This...please wait a moment!"

Yin Siqi hesitated for a moment when he heard this, then nodded quickly and replied.

Then, she motioned with her eyes to the two pharmacy employees next to her to help entertain Lin Yi first, and then ran not far away to call their store manager on her mobile phone.

After a while, the call was connected, and she hurriedly told the store manager what had happened, but she did not say that she suspected that Lin Yi was here to cheat money.

After all, she was just a small foreman, and she had no evidence. The reason why she suspected that Lin Yi was here to cheat money was just her natural reaction as a foreman.

"You mean the other party brought a nearly one meter long ginseng to sell?"

After hearing what Yin Siqi said, Shao Dongbo on the other side of the phone was immediately stunned, and then hurriedly confirmed.

"That's right! Shaodian, why don't you come back and take a look! This is such a big deal. If something goes wrong, I'm afraid I won't be able to handle it!"

Hearing this, Yin Siqi couldn't help but spoke with some worry.

In fact, she was not worried that the ginseng Lin Yi brought over was fake, but she was worried that their pharmacy would not be able to tell that the ginseng was fake, and then made her colleagues laugh.

"Okay, then you let the other person wait for a while, I'll rush back right now!"

Shao Dongbo immediately understood what Yin Siqi meant and immediately agreed.

It was related to the reputation of the pharmacy, so he couldn't help but take it seriously.

Regardless of whether the ginseng the other party brought over was real or fake, he had to go back and take a look.

"Ok!"

When Yin Siqi heard that Shao Dongbo was coming back, she felt relieved.

Afterwards, she hung up the phone, quickly ran back to the counter, and said to Lin Yi with an apologetic look: "I'm sorry! Our store manager went out to do errands not long ago and will have to wait a while before he can come back. Please be patient. Wait a moment!"

"How long do I need to wait?"

Lin Yi frowned slightly when he heard this, and then asked directly.

"This shouldn't take long. It'll be quick. Why don't you tell me about the ginseng first, and I'll register it for you, so that when our store manager comes back later, we won't have to ask you again!"

Yin Siqi felt nervous when she saw Lin Yi's somewhat dissatisfied look, and then quickly thought of a way to delay time.

"What do you want to register?"

Lin Yi's eyes narrowed slightly, and then he asked calmly.

"Don't get me wrong, we just need to register some of the most basic information to facilitate our valuation of this ginseng. For example, how did you get your ginseng? What is its length? How much does it weigh? How long has it been stored after drying in the shade?"

Upon hearing this, Yin Siqi hurriedly waved her hands and explained.

"No, since your pharmacy can't tell, there's no need for me to waste my time here!"

When Lin Yi heard Yin Siqi's explanation, he planned to leave with the ginseng without even thinking about it.

"Hey, what are you doing? You can't leave!"

Yin Siqi saw Lin Yi's movements and hurriedly reached out to hold Lin Yi.

She couldn't let Lin Yi run away before the store manager came back.

At that time, if Lin Yi goes out to speak ill of their pharmacy and damages the reputation of their pharmacy, she will be in big trouble.

"What? Does your pharmacy still want to buy and sell by force?"

When Lin Yi saw this, he frowned, then shook off Yin Siqi's hand and asked with some displeasure.

Although he had not understood how today's pharmacies purchase medicinal materials before, based on Yin Siqi's series of performances just now, he could also see that this large pharmacy did not have such great authority and ability to purchase medicinal materials from him. This is a century-old ginseng.

Otherwise, he would not be allowed to explain the situation of ginseng himself.

Instead of wasting time here, he might as well find another shipping channel, such as auction houses and pharmaceutical companies.

"No, no, that's not what I meant, I."

Yin Siqi was stunned when she heard Lin Yi's words, then hurriedly shook her head and denied it.

Just when she was thinking about how to explain it to Lin Yi, let Lin Yi stay in the pharmacy and wait for their store manager to come back.

An old lady with silver hair suddenly came over, and then said with a kind smile: "Young man, little girl, I'm sorry! I just stood over there and seemed to hear you talking about wild ginseng. If it's convenient, Can you let me take a look?"

After saying that, she looked directly at Lin Yi's face, obviously knowing who the owner of this wild ginseng was.

Yin Siqi's heart skipped a beat when she saw the sudden appearance of Cheng Yaojin, and she couldn't help but have an anxious look on her face, fearing that this kind and kind old lady would be deceived by Lin Yi.

When Lin Yi saw the calm and composed smile on this old woman's face, as well as the translucent green jadeite bracelet on her wrist, she instantly understood that she was not an ordinary old man.

So, he smiled slightly, nodded happily and said, "Okay! But I can only let you take a look, and it can't be too long. Please forgive me!"

When Li Sufen heard this, her eyes lit up, then she waved her hands hurriedly and said with a smile: "It's okay, young man, just let me take a look, I know the rules!"

When Lin Yi heard this, he was even more sure that the other party didn't come over to ask to see the ginseng out of curiosity.

Maybe if everything goes well, he won't have to go to the auction house anymore.

Thinking of this, he hurriedly reached out and opened the wooden box, and then moved away so that Li Sufen could step forward to check.

When Li Sufen saw this, she didn't go to be polite to Lin Yi, and hurriedly went up to look in the wooden box.

This sight immediately surprised her.

She didn't expect that this wild ginseng would be so big and perfect.

Just when she couldn't control herself and wanted to move forward to take a closer look, Lin Yi suddenly reached out and closed the wooden box.

She was stunned for a moment, then reacted immediately, and said hurriedly and apologetically: "Young man, I'm sorry! I was too excited! Please don't mind!"

As the saying goes, people are popular because of their popularity.For those wild ginseng with better quality, the most taboo is to mix too much popular ginseng, which will lead to impure ginseng qi.

Moreover, the storage of ginseng also requires special attention. It should not be exposed to the air for a long time, otherwise it will easily get damp and deteriorate.

Seeing Li Sufen's sincere attitude, Lin Yi didn't care about such a trivial matter with her. He waved his hand directly and said softly: "It's okay, as long as you don't blame me for being rude!"

Hearing this, Li Sufen's eyes flashed with admiration, and then she said with a smile: "Young man, what's your surname? If I heard you right, you are planning to take action on this ginseng, right? How about we find a quiet place first?" Let’s have a good chat again?”

"Your surname is Lin. You can just call me Xiao Lin. Since you are interested in buying it, I will naturally not refuse you, a buyer who knows the goods!"

Lin Yi saw Li Sufen being so straightforward, so he agreed simply.

Anyway, as long as the price is right, he can sell it to anyone. Rather than waiting for the store manager who can't make the decision in this pharmacy to come back, he might as well try to sell the ginseng to Li Sufen, which will save time and effort.

"Okay, then take this ginseng and follow me now!"

Li Sufen felt happy when she heard Lin Yi agreed, and then in order to avoid long nights and dreams, she quickly urged Lin Yi to leave with her.

Seeing Lin Yi put away the wooden box and prepared to leave with Li Sufen, Yin Siqi suddenly couldn't sit still.

She hurriedly ran out of the counter, then stopped in front of Li Sufen, and said anxiously: "Grandma, if you really want to buy this gentleman's ginseng, you don't need to go anywhere else. It's right here. Our pharmacy will do."

"Moreover, our pharmacy can also help you provide appraisal and valuation services. In this way, both of you will feel more at ease, right?"

When Li Sufen heard this, she glanced at Lin Yi first. When she saw that Lin Yi had no expression, she hurriedly waved her hand and refused: "No, little girl, thank you for your kindness, and please rest assured that this is my relationship with you." No matter what the outcome of this young man’s matter is, it will not have anything to do with your pharmacy.”

After saying that, she quickly walked out of the pharmacy without waiting for Yin Siqi to say anything else.

Lin Yi only glanced at Yin Siqi lightly, and then hurriedly followed her.

Yin Siqi looked at this scene and wanted to stop them, but she didn't know how to stop them. In the end, she could only watch them go.

After that, she kept debating whether to call the police until a slightly bald middle-aged man ran in outside the door.

"Siqi, why are you standing here alone? Where is the customer who wants to sell ginseng?"

Shao Dongbo saw Yin Siqi standing blankly at the door and asked hurriedly.

While asking, he kept looking into the pharmacy, trying to find the customer who was selling ginseng.

"gone!"

Yin Siqi came to her senses after hearing this, and then answered directly.

"What? Gone? Didn't I tell you to keep this person for me? How on earth are you doing this?"

Shao Dongbo's eyes widened, and then he shouted with a look of shock and anger.

"You can't blame me! He has to leave, I can't stop him from letting him go!"

When Yin Siqi saw Shao Dongbo angry, her heart tightened slightly, and then she hurriedly explained.

After saying that, she quickly told what happened without waiting for Shao Dongbo to continue his attack.

"Shaodian, this is probably what happened. I tried very hard to keep him here, but he didn't give me this chance at all."

"Tell me, does that person think that we are not that easy to deceive, so he wants to deceive that old lady?"

"I'm lying to you, you idiot! Have you ever seen someone deceiving people on the street with such a big stick of ginseng? Moreover, they directly deceived our Zhongshengtang Pharmacy?"

When Shao Dongbo heard Yin Siqi's wild guess, he was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood.

"That's not necessarily true! There are so many bad people in society now. Maybe they come here deliberately for the name of our Zhongshengtang Pharmacy!"

Yin Siqi pursed her lips, and then retorted with some annoyance.

"Oh you! Forget it, forget it, you don't understand even if I tell you. This time, we have completely missed an opportunity for promotion and salary increase!"

When Shao Dongbo saw that Yin Siqi still dared to talk back, he immediately wanted to explain to her the twists and turns, but then he thought that everyone had left, and immediately lost his mood.

Originally, he thought he would get lucky this time and help the company acquire an extremely rare century-old wild ginseng!

In the end, the joy was all in vain.

"No! Shaodian, I don't want you to talk like this. You haven't seen that ginseng. How can you be so sure that it is a real wild ginseng?"

When Yin Siqi heard Shao Dongbo's exaggerated words, she couldn't help but ask.

Upon hearing this, Shao Dongbo glanced at Yin Siqi, and then issued a soul torture with some disgust.

"Then how can you be sure it's not true?"

"I"

Yin Siqi opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she found that she had nothing to say at all.

After all, this was all just her own speculation, and there was no evidence to prove that the ginseng was fake.

When Shao Dongbo saw Yin Siqi like this, he said angrily: "Now you know why I must let you keep the other party!"

"If that ginseng is fake, we will waste a little time at most. But if that ginseng is real, do you know what kind of contribution this means we can make?"

"When the time comes, let alone asking you to replace me as the store manager, even if you are transferred to the South China Division Headquarters, it is not impossible."

"How was it? Do you regret it now?"

"Regret? I regret it so much now!"

Yin Siqi didn't expect that purchasing this wild ginseng would have such great benefits, and she couldn't help showing a look of heartache on her face.

If she had known this, then even if she hugged the other person's thigh with all her strength just now, she would never let him go!
"Okay, after all, I can't really blame you for this. I guess the other party saw that we didn't have the ability to inspect the goods, so they thought of leaving."

Shao Dongbo saw that Yin Siqi was about to cry with regret, so he hurriedly expressed relief.

When Yin Siqi heard this, she felt even more uncomfortable when she thought of how she had pretended to be smart and wanted to register relevant information for Lin Yi.

If she hadn't done this at the beginning, maybe Lin Yi wouldn't have left now!

Just when she felt a little regretful about this, Lin Yi and Li Sufen also opened a private room and sat down in a teahouse not far from Zhongshengtang Pharmacy.
