Carry a fountain with you

Chapter 324 Tribute
Just after eating in the morning, Zhao Guangming came to the door with Zhou Yueer on his back. The guy entered the yard and said nonchalantly, "Liu Junhao, can you get me a catty of yesterday's bee chrysalis? My dad wants to use this as a gift. For the money." He was embarrassed to hear it, but he had made it clear yesterday that he didn't want bee chrysalis, and at that time he said confidently that he would spit and nail one by one, but he changed his mind overnight, and he himself felt that he couldn't say that. .

"You boy, I can ask for your money. I want to get you a catty later. Anyway, it's a lot." Liu Junhao stretched out his hand and pushed back the money he handed over.He wasn't pretending to be a gesture, he had the idea of ​​giving Zhao Guangming half of it.

Zhao Guangming gave way a few more times, and seeing that he insisted on refusing to take it, he took it back, and then said: "By the way, Liu Junhao, this bee pupa is really worth that much money. I went back yesterday and told my dad about it." After reading it again, he asked me to pay for a catty no matter what. Do you know why this bee pupa is so precious?" At this point, Zhao Guangming made a fool of himself on purpose.

"I'm not as ignorant as you. I checked the information on the Internet yesterday. The supply of wasp pupae is relatively small. It is dangerous to pick it up, and the nutritional value is high, so the price will rise all the way. At present, this is still a problem. It's a seller's market. But I also checked the price on the Internet yesterday, and it doesn't seem to be that high, and Huo Jun's bid is obviously too high." Liu Junhao's last sentence was full of doubts, but in fact, this was also what he and Zhang Qian didn't understand.Ordinarily, this person has been engaged in local specialties, so he should be quite familiar with bee pupae, so how could he rashly offer such a high price.

"Not high, let me tell you, it's not high at all. Do you know what the hornet's nest we cast is called? Jinyu honeycomb, this bee pupa is called Jinyu bee queen pupa..." He actually just heard the name from his old man last night. I said it, but I still enjoy the feeling of showing off in front of others.

"What, this is the golden jade bee queen pupa?" Liu Junhao was taken aback, looking at the things in the refrigerator in disbelief.

"You know?" Zhao Guangming looked at him dumbly.

"Nonsense, you think I'm as ignorant as you. Our Daqing Mountain's two major tributes, one is the golden jade bee queen pupa and the other is the Liwan reed mat. This matter is clearly recorded in the local annals. But I remember it seems to be bees Pupa.” When Liu Junhao was a child, he liked to read some miscellaneous books. At that time, he was very surprised when he saw the tributes from Daqingshan in the township annals, so he asked old man Liu specifically.

Old man Liu only knows the allusions to the reed mats in Liwan. He said that the reed mats there used to be very famous. A medicinal juice has been handed down. After the reed mat is soaked in it, the texture is soft and smooth as jade.However, due to the war, this craft was lost.

Liu Junhao asked a lot of people about the golden jade bee pupa, but unfortunately, according to the villagers' thinking, it was a bee pupa, and now a wasp pupa appeared, how could he not be surprised.

"Hey, it's likely to be." Zhao Guangming asked his father the same thing yesterday, and Zhao Zhennan said at the time, "Anyway, this thing has been recorded in our township annals, and it is also described in the county annals. As for what it looks like, No pictures left, now you say it is, it is."

After a while, Wang Shengli also came to the door, but he was too stingy, so he only offered a price of [-] yuan per catty.

"Two hundred, this is to send beggars. Do you know the name of this bee pupa? Golden jade bee queen pupa. This was a tribute hundreds of years ago. Last night we sold it for more than 500 yuan per catty." Zhao Guangming coaxed With deceit, he wanted to make this fat man completely dizzy.

Wang Shengli is a good businessman. He said that he didn't believe that there would be any tribute in a corner like Daqingshan. In the end, he emphasized that if it was a tribute, he would also pay the price of [-] yuan per catty.

"You don't believe me, do you? Wait, I'll go home and find Xiangzhi for you." Zhao Guangming got mad and rushed to the town on his motorcycle.

In less than half an hour, he rushed back to the courtyard with a thick rural annals in his hand.

"Help him find it. I'll eat a piece of melon and rest for a while." This kid has never read the Xiangzhi, but he just heard that there is a record in it.How could he have the energy to search for such a thick book page by page, so he stuffed Xiangzhi into Liu Junhao's hand, grabbed the watermelon and ate it.

Liu Junhao is quite familiar with the rural annals, he found the scenery and geography in the catalog, and then searched by the number above, and found the relevant description within 2 minutes.There are only a few simple sentences above: "Golden Jade Bee Emperor Pupa, produced in the depths of Daqing Mountain. Its color is as white as jade, and its grain is as big as a pea... It was a tribute from the Daoguang Dynasty."

"Really?" Now Fatty Wang was completely convinced, the things recorded in the township annals generally cannot be faked.Although the bee chrysalis looks a little bigger than usual, but with the word tribute on it, it suddenly becomes mysterious.He forgot to doubt, whether this thing is a tribute or not is still unclear.

"What do you think?" Zhao Guangming shuddered, "To be honest, 500 yuan is too low for you. If you sell this thing in a big restaurant in the city, people will definitely snap it up."

"Wait a minute, I'll call and ask, this is bought for someone else." Wang Shengli wiped the sweat from his forehead, then ran out with his mobile phone.

"Tch, I've been doing it for a long time, I'm a second-rate dealer, and I'm afraid people will hear me when I make a phone call." Zhao Guangming muttered in a low voice behind him.

After five or six minutes, Fatty Wang walked back to the courtyard again, but this time he returned to a relaxed look.

"I called and asked just now. There is such a thing as the queen bee pupae, but you don't have all of them. The big ones are. These small ones are just ordinary wasp pupae. The price of the queen bee pupae is [-] yuan. , the other counts..."

"X, let your hands be cheap!" Zhao Guangming slapped his right hand again. Yesterday, he tried to save trouble and singled out the big bee pupae to feed the chickens. Emotion is the essence.

After hearing the price quoted by Wang Shengli, Liu Junhao was obviously tempted.He wasn't sure if it was the Golden Jade Bee Emperor Chrysalis, but the price wasn't low.

"Didn't you still promise someone yesterday?" Seeing Liu Junhao was tempted, Zhou Yueer suddenly interjected.What she meant was obvious, it was up for grabs
"Yes" Liu Junhao slapped his head, how could he forget about Huo Jun, he also said he would come over today.

Huo Jun arrived at Liujiagou after ten o'clock. He was also surprised when he heard that the bee pupae was a tribute.However, after reading the Xiangzhi, I immediately believed it, and then quoted a price of [-] yuan for the queen bee chrysalis, and the bee chrysalis was still calculated as [-] yuan.

Wang Shengli saw that the final decision was made, so he could only increase the price to follow up.They were all acquaintances, Liu Junhao divided the bee pupae in half according to the principle of making money with kindness, and of course left two catties for himself in the end.

After the transaction was over, half of Liu Junhao's courtyard was surrounded by people, and many people were there sighing.In this world, it is simply incomprehensible that a beehive can be sold for the price of a cow.

"Boss Huo, you are so expensive, don't you fail to sell it?" Er Mazi finally asked.

"Hehe, you don't need to worry about money and goods changing hands. If you really can't sell it, I'll eat it myself. If any of you throw away the honeycomb in the future, even if you call me, as long as the quality is good, I will still buy it at this price." Huo Junle He complied peacefully and seemed very confident.

From the photos he took just now, Liu Junhao can guess a little about his method, which is nothing more than hyping up the concept of tribute.To say that these days, there are so many rich people, what people eat is not food, but the price.With the concept of tribute on his head, even if this bee pupa is sold for 1000 yuan per catty by Huo Jun, it is completely normal.

In summer, bee pupae cannot be left outside for a long time, and the two of them planned to get up and leave after keeping the bee pupae properly.Of course, before leaving, Huo Jun still couldn't forget the beehive in the courtyard, and planned to buy it for 1000 yuan.However, Liu Junhao shook his head and refused. He was going to hang the honeycomb under the eaves later, and it would definitely be shocking for the guests who came to visit.

When it was almost noon, the people in the yard were almost gone, but Liu Junqi stayed.He hesitated to express his meaning clearly. It turned out that he had the idea of ​​throwing a crucian carp bone into a honeycomb.The last time a few people went to the mountain to investigate the crested ibis, and found a large beehive on a eucalyptus tree. At that time, they didn't know the value of the beehive, so they didn't have the intention to move.Seeing that the bee pupae was so valuable now, Liu Junqi naturally thought about it.Of course, he didn't forget the original discoverer of the hive, and planned to invite the two of them into the mountain together.

"Brother Junqi, how do you plan to vote?" Liu Junhao asked back. In fact, he also had this idea last night, but after careful consideration, he found that the possibility of success is very small.The hornet's nest on the eucalyptus tree is different from the one in the school. The environment there is open, and the hornets will fly away even if the smoke is lit. Maybe tens of thousands of hornets will pounce on them and sting them.Money is important, but life is more important.Another most important thing is that the climate is dry, and there are piles of fallen leaves on the mountain. If a fire is caused, it will be a big trouble.

"How about we all put on raincoats, and then wrap a layer of window screens on the outside of the clothes?" Liu Junqi had no good idea.

"Are you sure you can do it? Xuehu Xue Laoba also used your method?" Zhao Guangming only asked, and he was completely speechless.

The story of Xue Laoba was widely spread some time ago, and basically everyone in the town knew about it.In front of Xue Laoba's gate, the foundation of a tree more than 20 meters high was loose. He was afraid that the tree would fall and hit his house, so he planned to saw off the tree as soon as possible.But there was a wasp's nest the size of a bucket on the top of the tree, and the wasps were densely packed on it, so there was no way for him to cut down the tree with peace of mind.Helpless, Xue Laoba decided to throw away the hornet's nest first.The equipment he used was exactly the same as what Liu Junqi had said. How could he know that as soon as the smoke was lit, the swarm of hornets rushed out and flew straight towards Xue Laoba.
