Big man

The trade fair rules of Qingyuan Hotel are not strict, and they are relatively casual.

This is naturally because those who participate in trade fairs are not ordinary people, and usually don't like too many constraints and rules.If this is a serious trade fair organized by a well-known international multinational company, then it should be stricter.No matter which level you reach, you should follow the rules of that level.

The key point is that Chen Qiye is not an international tycoon, he is Brother Pao.

In Qingyuan, a barbaric land surrounded by mountains on all sides, what a Dapao brother who is particular about three knives and six holes is fighting in a sea of ​​swords and blood is making people laugh out loud.

Lax rules don't mean no rules.

There is still a host.

The host of the trade fair is not a handsome guy or a pretty girl, but an old man in his eighties, with white hair and a youthful face, hale and hearty.Leaning on crutches, he slowly walked out from behind the door.

Compared to this person's physical and mental state, crutches are definitely props.

As soon as the voice of "Duoduoduo" sounded, the originally noisy trading hall fell silent instantly, and everyone turned their heads to look at the host platform in unison, showing a sense of reverence.

Yin Zhengzhong, Mr. Yin's name in the Qingyuan Herbs Market is something that everyone has admired for a long time.

Mr. Yin is a living pharmacopoeia of traditional Chinese medicine.During the period of the Republic of China, he followed his master to travel north and south to buy medicinal materials. "Shen Nong's Materia Medica" and "Compendium of Materia Medica" are almost fluent.

Some people even say that it is precisely because of Yin Zhengzhong that there is a large medicinal material distribution market in Qingyuan.

Most of the guests who came here today are practitioners of traditional Chinese medicine, and they all admire this senior who is a national treasure.

Xiao Fan also looked at Yin Zhengzhong with great interest.

Xiao Fan is the gentle young man at table 27 who is dressed in a moon white cotton linen Tang suit and black cloth shoes.

It wasn't the first time he came to Qingyuan, but it was the first time he participated in this precious medicinal materials fair, half of which was for Yin Zhengzhong's great name.

Yin Zhengzhong originally opened a pharmacy, but after the Qingyuan Chinese herbal medicine distribution market gradually prospered, he closed his own pharmacy.The old man made it very clear that he does not compete with younger generations for jobs.

But every trade fair held by Qingyuan Hotel, the elderly must be invited to sit in charge.

With him around, there will be basically no objection to the identification of the true and false years of medicinal materials.

As for the price, the old man doesn't care, it's up to the customers to trade by themselves. He is only responsible for identifying the authenticity and age of the medicinal materials.In business, what matters is willingness to fight and suffer.Moreover, for the same medicinal material, buyers' bids will be very different due to demand.

For example, if you buy aged wild ginseng for collection or for saving your life, the bids will be very different.

The old man can be regarded as a mature man.

As soon as Yin Zhengzhong appeared on the stage, it meant that the trade fair had officially started.

The guests came to their seats one after another and sat down, holding their breath and looking at the old senior with fluttering white beard.In the huge trading hall, needles could be heard immediately.

Leaning on a cane with a bull's head, the old man walked slowly to the host seat set up on one side of the hall, his eyes slowly scanned the hall for a week.

This is also the etiquette that the host should have.

The guests hurriedly nodded their heads in salute. In fact, the old man's eyes just passed by everyone's faces, and he didn't pay special attention to anyone.At his current status and age, most people really can't afford to think that he has more favors.

When Yin Zhengzhong's eyes glanced at Xiao Fan's face, he suddenly stopped, and his slightly squinted eyes suddenly widened a little, flashing with light in an instant.

Everyone's eyes followed, and most of them were puzzled, wondering why the old man suddenly paid special attention to this young man.Apart from his gentler appearance and more elegant temperament, he is a well-educated scholar at first glance, and there is nothing very surprising about him.

After all, Yin Zhengzhong's vision was different from those of these businessmen.

In his eyes, on Xiao Fan's slightly pale face, there was a layer of soft luster slowly flowing, if there was any.This is clearly a scene that can only be seen when one has practiced Neijia Qigong to a very high level.

Yin Zhengzhong himself was a great master of inner martial arts.In his eighties, he is still young and full of energy.One is to be proficient in the way of health preservation; the other is to practice the Wu Qin Xi taught by Hua Tuo for decades without interruption.The internal energy in the body is full and full of vitality.

Even so, Yin Zhengzhong also felt that he might not be as good as the quiet young man in front of him in the cultivation of inner family qigong.

The so-called "three flowers gather at the top of five qi towards the Yuan" in the inner family kung fu should be talking about this kind of situation, right?

There is also a record in the Taoist classics: the vitality is great, and the vitality is like the sea.

Look at his face, he is only 26 and seven years old, how can he reach such a state?Even if he is a genius of the heavens, he is too young to practice peerless magic.

Are you blinded by yourself?

Dozens of gazes looked over at the same time, Xiao Fan acted like he didn't see it, he smiled slightly at Yin Zhengzhong, and nodded slightly as a gesture of respect.

Yin Zhengzhong was solemn, nodded slightly, and bowed his body.

Everyone was horrified.

The old man's etiquette is really unbearable for ordinary people.Among the guests present, there are many wealthy people with a net worth of hundreds of millions, and there are also several powerful figures who are known as the king of a certain province of medicine. , It seems that no one has ever obtained the honor of being a gift.

Could it be that this young man is a powerful character with a great background?Even an aristocratic family from the capital?

In the suspended corridor, the sixth child hurried over and whispered to Chen Guo: "Qi Ye, I can't find it..."

While talking, he observed Chen Guo's face, and his heart shuddered endlessly.

After following Master Qi for so many years, Lao Liu knew very well that Master Qi didn't like to hear such words.

"What do you mean you can't find it?"

Chen Guo finally took her eyes away from Xiao Fan, and asked coldly.

Lao Liu was trembling in his heart. He could tell that Master Qi was indeed a little angry. He wiped his cold sweat with his hand and said, "Master Qi, it's like this. On our guest list, there is no table number 27 at all. The names of the guests. I don’t know how they came in, and I don’t know who introduced them. I asked several foremen, and they didn’t know anyone... This matter, this matter is really weird..."

As the sixth child said, he wiped off his cold sweat again.

Chen Guo sneered, and said: "Liu Liu, you are getting more and more comfortable now, you can't figure out anything? Let me ask you, how did the security let them in without invitations? The most important thing is, who gave the invitation?" They arranged table 27? It’s impossible for the guests at table 27 to have no names, right?”

Lao Liu stammered and said, "Master Qi, that's why it's weird. I asked. Table 27 was originally reserved for an old customer from Tiannan. He called yesterday and said he would come over. I contacted him just now. This guy is busy and can't come. He has already called the hotel. But I went to ask, but no one knew about it... Ask the security, how did these two people get in? It's also a mess Shaking his head, he said he didn't know...Everyone seemed to be possessed by a demon...Qi Ye, this, could it be true, really hit him..."

Speaking of this, Lao Liu couldn't help shivering, looking at the two young men, a man and a woman in the hall, he felt the wind blowing, and goose bumps appeared all over his body.

The sixth child is very superstitious.

Generally speaking, Qingyuan is also a "land of alienated barbarians", and all kinds of strange rumors are full of folks.

"Bullshit!"

Chen Guo gave him a dark look.

The sixth child shrank his neck, his face wrinkled into a bitter gourd.

This thing is really heinous.Two big living people walked in just like that, and no one in the whole hotel knew where or when they came from.

"How about I have someone drive them out?"

The sixth child asked tentatively.

"Do you think now is the right time?"

Chen Guo asked back.

The trade fair has officially started.According to the table number, some guests handed over the medicinal materials they brought to Yin Zhengzhong, asking him to identify the authenticity, appearance and year.

There is a reason for this.

Some customers were a little uncertain about the "goods" in their hands, afraid of being fooled, so they ran all the way to Qingyuan to ask the old Yin to appraise them.However, this kind of customers are a minority. Generally speaking, those who can make such a large medicinal material business are definitely not rookies who have just entered the industry. They have a lot of experience. Only for the sake of prudence, would they ask Yin Zhengzhong for help. check.

Most of the customers who take the goods to the stage for appraisal are to win the trust of others and facilitate the next transaction.

Yin Zhengzhong only appraises, does not bid or auction.

This is also the rule established by Chen Guo for the trade fair, all transactions are completed between the guests themselves.The trade fair only charges a certain service fee.Chen Guo doesn't rely on this trade fair to get rich, he relies on these customers.Not only did they eat and drink at the Qingyuan Hotel, but they also bought some medicinal materials in several big pharmacies actually controlled by Chen Guo.

Chen Guo does not bully the market, does not hinder customers from buying goods from other pharmacies, and is playing fair competition.

Chen Qiye is rich and powerful, and controls the largest drugstores in Qingyuan City, and he is not his opponent in fair competition.Why bully the market and cause public outrage?Chen Qiye didn't intend to earn all the money from the medicinal material business in Qingyuan City by himself, that would be too stupid.It is very appropriate to eat a large piece of meat by yourself, and save some soup and water for others to drink.

"Forget it, let's take a look first. As long as they don't make trouble, we can always figure it out after the fair is over."

Chen Guo waved her hand.

"Hey, ok ok..."

Lao Liu agreed repeatedly, and secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

Chen Guo ignored the sixth child, and leaned on the railing again, watching the movement in the arena.

All of a sudden, Chen Guo felt an extremely strange feeling rushing into his heart, as if a pair of eyes were staring coldly at his back, making the hair stand on end.

Chen Guo slowly took the Leopard Tooth Pipe in his hand, took a deep breath, every muscle in his body was instantly filled with vigorous strength, he turned around suddenly, his waist was slightly bent, his whole body seemed to be in a state of momentum. The ready-to-go crossbow was on extreme alert.

but……

Nothing at all.

Behind him, there is nothing.

Not a single ghost was seen.

That weird feeling disappeared in an instant.

Chen Guo only felt that her scalp was numb, and the blood vessels under her temples were throbbing.

Just now, he really felt the weirdness of being spied on, as if an extremely powerful enemy was ready to give him a fatal blow in the back at any time.

Not hallucinations!

Maybe, there might actually be something going on tonight.
