Almighty Blessing Pack: Traveling through troubled times with a microscope

Chapter 2 Let's just say this business is too difficult
The refugees along the way fled to Mizhuang with pots and pans on their backs, the dust was flying, and from time to time there were officers and soldiers riding tall horses, grunting and running past.Yin Bao saw that many of the people who fled to Mizhuang were familiar, and they seemed to be young and old from Shuihua Village.

Brother Jin called to stop an old man, "Uncle Tie, why are you leaving too?"

The person who answered was an old man in a gray robe. Yin Bao glanced at him. In his memory, his brothers called him "Village Chief".

"Don't go? Don't go and wait to die of starvation? The land in the village can't even grow food. How can I die if I am an old bone? Why don't I find a more comfortable place to be a beggar!"

When he was speaking, Lao Tie looked at Yin Bao's face, with doubts in his eyes, and even slowed down his pace.

Yinbao had some impressions that Yuanchen didn't like to go out in the past. When she was a child, the village head would often come to coax her to play with her at home, and she hadn't seen her since she was eight years old.

But his eyes are not so strange, as if he was stunned and frustrated when he saw a dead person.Seeing that Yinbao was a little unnatural, he quickly turned his head and continued on his way.

Another tall horse came flying dust, Yin Bao covered his mouth and nose to block the dust in the sky, and saw that these officers and soldiers had swords on their waists and blood on their sleeves.

Calculated according to the time, now is the time when several princes of the Jin Dynasty are fighting for territory.It seems that the fight was fierce.

Mizhuang is located in the southwest on the map and belongs to the marginal fiefdom of King Langya.Langya Prince's house is kind-hearted, and Mizhuang is relatively prosperous and peaceful.

And the water flower village is poor and remote, no prince is willing to want it, it is considered an outside land.

"Brother, here, what can one tael of silver buy?"

"A tael of silver? I've grown up so much, I've never seen so much money!"

"That's right, baby, anyone in our village who has a few copper coins is a bit richer." Brother Tong pointed his stick at the village chief who was running ahead.

"That old iron gambled jade in his early years, and he still had some money on him. He was the richest man in our village, so he ran away now!"

Gambling?

Yin Bao blinked three times with his gleaming almond eyes, and rubbed his hands with great interest. If he can meet such a good business later, it will be easy to handle.

There is almost no coin circulation in the village. The two brothers have only seen chopping firewood and digging wild vegetables since they were young. Yinbao did not make things difficult for them. .

"Here, the price is not bad! This stone rice costs 150 Wen."

The two brothers trembled and scolded in their hearts, this is too expensive, who can afford it!The entire Water Flower Village could not put together so much money.

Yin Bao nodded, calculating in his mind, and seeing the greediness and unwillingness of his brothers, he dragged them to the corner.

A stone of rice is about 150 catties, which is exactly 150 Wen.

One tael of silver is 1000 wen = 1000 catties of rice.

1 catty of modern rice = 3 yuan.

1000 catties of rice = 3000 yuan = one tael of silver

The highest value of wild ginseng is 80 RMB, and the lowest value is 3 RMB, that is, when pricing, it can fluctuate between 260 taels and [-] taels of silver.

"Brother, let's sell our wild ginseng next to that radish stall over there later!"

"How much does it cost?"

Yinbao thought for a while, "First order 200 taels, and see if anyone knows the goods!"

"What?" The two brothers widened their eyes in surprise, with a bitter look on their faces.

"Ninny, have you been fooled by that stone? How can this shriveled radish be more expensive than other good radishes? They only cost ten cents a piece!"

"Oh, believe me, let's go!" Yin Bao picked up nine wild ginseng plants, dragged his two elder brothers along and set up a stall.

The owner of the radish stall glanced at the three of them. His poor attire stood out from the passers-by. He looked sideways, his lips trembling, and uttered a dirty word: "Three soil turtles!"

"Come, come, take a look, take a look, the top wild ginseng, one to strengthen the body, two wonderful hands to rejuvenate!"

The shoppers were all dressed in clean and tidy clothes. It seemed that they were not short of money. A few ladies with jade on their wrists came up to have a look. They glanced suspiciously at the faces of the three brothers and sisters of Yinbao, their brows raised high. provoke.

"Is this the real thing? Why do I look like a fake?"

Yin Bao put on his gloves and held up one skillfully, "This wild ginseng, it's actually easy to tell if it's real or not!"

A group of spectators immediately gathered around.

"Mountain ginseng is roughly divided into body and whiskers. This good variety has long whiskers without breaking, strong body but not fat, and there are lines representing age all over the body. The more fine lines there are, the longer it is. And look at how beautiful it is!"

The lady squinted her eyes and said arrogantly, "Then what effect does it have?"

"Wild ginseng has been a good medicine since the time of Shennong Baicao. It has been regarded as an excellent tonic by ancient doctors! It nourishes vitality, strengthens the spleen and moistens the lungs, promotes blood circulation and promotes body fluid, calms the nerves and improves the mind!"

"How about a plant?"

After listening to the introduction, everyone felt miraculous and curious, and took a few steps forward one after another.

"Then how do you sell it?"

Yin Bao stretched out two fingers, and smiled slightly, "It's not expensive, 200 taels!"

"What?" The crowd immediately exploded, and the people who watched the wild ginseng scattered cursing, "Why don't you just grab the money!"

The owner of the radish stall next to him laughed loudly, shrank his hands into his sleeves happily, and looked at their jokes like a monkey.

"Ninny, what should I do, no one knows what to do!"

Holding the good thing in his hand, Yin Bao frowned slightly, pondering.

According to the law of market development, if the commodity does not have a market effect, it can be considered to depreciate without damaging the cost and its own value.

"Let's cut the price! See if anyone buys it!"

100 taels 50 taels. Ten taels fifty texts. Three texts
"Damn it, no one buys it for a penny?"

Big brother Jin cursed and quit, he drove all day and squatted all morning, "I don't have fart, why don't I go back and dig wild vegetables!"

Yinbao is very calm, these wild ginseng must be sold, this is not modern, there are all kinds of things if you have no money.

A great writer said that when you encounter a gap that is difficult to cross, you must look up.

You might see bird droppings on your electric car's rearview mirror
You may see the cat slap the dog and hide in the owner's arms.
You might also see a sports car tycoon driving through the rain wearing dark glasses and being cool because of a malfunctioning roof lift.
In short, it will definitely bring you inspiration!

Looking around, her 10.0 eyesight really saw a way out.

On that main street, there was a rather large pharmacy, and many people surrounded the door.Wild ginseng is a very good medicinal material, you can try it there.

After shouting in the pharmacy for a long time, no one came out. Looking again, the shopkeeper and the waiters were all gathered around a small stall at the door.

More and more people, more and more.The three of them went up to look and saw a big stone on the table.

Immediately Yin Bao couldn't walk anymore, he stretched his neck, his eyes were wide open.

"Here I am, there is such a gem, and there may be hidden jade in it! 300 taels of silver, can you buy it or not!"

The people at the scene gathered around to watch the excitement, but no one stepped forward.

The shopkeeper of the pharmacy was also standing there, clutching his pocket tightly, looking up, down, left, and right at the stone, wanting to buy it but daring not to.

Yin Bao squeezed through the crowd, went to the stone, and stroked the grains on it carefully.

Delicate and organized, uniform in depth, and grainy texture, you can see an obvious dent every thirteen steps.

According to Yinbao's experience, this is not only Tibetan jade, but also a piece of second-class hibiscus jade!
The peddler shook Yinbao's hand, looked at her shabby clothes, and said with disgust, "Hey, hey, buy it, if you don't buy it, don't touch it!"

Yin Bao shyly retreated to his brother's side.His eyes were still fixed on the stone.

It's a pity, if you buy it, at least it's worth 5000 taels of silver, if you buy it for 300 taels, you'll make a lot of money!If only she had 300 taels!crying inside
Turning his eyes, Yin Bao saw the hesitant shopkeeper of the pharmacy, twisted his braids, and a clever plan came to his mind, he looked around furtively, and moved to his side.

"Hey uncle, do you accept wild ginseng?"

The shopkeeper looked at her suspiciously, and Yin Bao opened his package, and there were nine pieces of wild ginseng lying inside.

The shopkeeper looked down, his old eyes lit up immediately, he touched it with his hands, stroked his white beard in satisfaction, his eyes flickered, and he sighed: "Good stuff! You want to sell it? I'll take it!"

"How much money do you have?"

The old shopkeeper rolled his eyes and said decisively, "Fifty Wen! Don't want any more!"

Yin Bao squeezed his hand, this old thing, he saw that it was a good treasure, but took advantage of the turmoil of the war to suppress the price.

Yin Bao negotiated the price with him for several rounds, but the shopkeeper refused to agree, and the price was fifty yuan a piece.

She glanced at the stones on the table beside her. She wanted to sell the ginseng for 300 taels before buying stones.

But in the current market, wild ginseng has not yet opened the market, and it cannot be sold for so much money.

She twisted her mind and came up with another trick.

"I'll help you look at the jade, I know what's inside!"

The shopkeeper sneered, "The gods don't even know, you know?"

"Hey, don't believe me, anyway, let me say it!"

"If I win this stone for you, then you will make a lot of money. One piece is 30 taels. Let's take care of each other. What do you think?"

The shopkeeper of the pharmacy rolled his eyes, "Hmph, what if it doesn't hit?"

"Then I'll give you all these ginseng!"

The old shopkeeper's eyes rolled, and Yinbao knew that he must be packing it and then selling it to richer people, and the profit would be doubled. With such a good business right now, both ends would be worth a loss, unless he is a person who can't settle accounts. I'm a fool, otherwise I will definitely agree.

"OK! Deal!"

In the surrounding crowd, there seemed to be a few people who often play with jade, and they all gathered around to have a look. When they saw it, they looked disgusted, shook their heads repeatedly, and muttered.

"Empty, this kind of stone is impossible!" "It is! It is far from the stone I opened last time!"

Yinbao went to the stone again to check carefully, and the two brothers stepped forward to hold her back, and said in a low voice, "Ninny, if there's nothing in it, we'll have nothing!"

The lines on the stone can't be deceiving, this is Yinbao's former job, Yinbao said firmly, "Don't worry, brother, I know."

After finishing speaking, Yin Bao slapped the shopkeeper's 300 taels of silver on the table. Everyone was shocked and gathered around to watch a joke.

The peddler put away the money with a smile, and picked up the saw beside him, "Come on, take a look at everything, no matter whether it is true or false, it will not be returned or exchanged!"

The hawker skillfully cuts, and everyone holds their breath.

Creak, creak, creak—

With a bang, the piece of skin cut from one side flipped out.

The stall was silent for a full ten seconds.
