Chapter 393(1/2)
Just as Chen Zhe and Qin Jia were worried about the medicinal materials, the doorbell of Fang Yaoshi Villa suddenly rang.
Qin Jia couldn't help but smile and said, "Teacher Fang has a guest again? It turns out that he is busy with noble people. Do we need to avoid it for the time being?"
"No, no, no..." Pharmacist Fang smiled and walked over and opened the door.
At this time, a young man and woman walked in from the door. The two were dressed luxuriously and were obviously rich. What's more important is that they were not sent by security guards by shuttle bus, but walking over, which means that they were not visitors outside the villa area, and they were probably living in this villa area themselves.
As expected, the young man and woman had a very familiar relationship with the pharmacist. After meeting, they greeted him politely.
"Grandpa Fang."
"Hello Grandpa Fang."
Pharmacist Fang smiled softly and said, "Mingen, Mingyuan, you are here."
"Yes." The young man among them nodded and then said, "Grandpa Fang, I saw you posted on your Moments and said that you recently got a precious medicinal plant. I wonder if it is still in your hands? You also know that my grandfather's condition is getting worse and worse, so we want to use medicinal materials to replenish his body..."
When the pharmacist heard this, he nodded immediately and said, "Oh, of course, it's here, but my medicinal herb is Red Flame Lotus, which may not be able to provide any help to your grandfather's condition. The effect of the medicine may not be particularly good..."
The young man ignored it and smiled bitterly: "Grandpa Fang, I know my grandfather is in serious condition and is old. Even the doctor said that he is old and weak, and his organs are exhausted in many places. Now he can only live a life, but he cannot cure it...
But we, as descendants, hope that our elders can live for a hundred years. Even if there is a glimmer of hope that the elderly can live one more day, we cannot give up hope, right?"
"This is indeed the reason." Pharmacist Fang nodded, "And your grandfather and I have a good relationship. I want to help him in terms of feelings and reason..."
"That's great." The young man smiled quickly, "Grandpa Fang, how much does this Red Flame Lotus cost? I'll transfer the money to you now."
When he heard this, Chen Zhe and Qin Jia next to him were a little anxious.
There is only one red flame lotus here in the pharmacist. This medicinal material is obviously extremely precious. The two of them finally found it, but now they are going to be taken away by someone else's sword.
Chen Zhe quickly stepped forward and said, "Teacher Fang, we bought this red flame lotus first. Since we have negotiated the price, shouldn't we transfer it to others?"
Pharmacist Fang was stunned when he heard this, and then turned around and said, "But... don't you have no money? If you don't have money, the transaction will not be completed, and it will not affect my selling to others."
Chen Zhe said: "I just don't have money on hand, but it doesn't mean I don't have money to buy it. If you want to give me an hour, I will pay in an hour."
"This..." Pharmacist Fang became embarrassed.
In theory, it was indeed Chen Zhe and Qin Jia who came first. When doing business, they also need to come first and come later. If Chen Zhe can really take out the money within an hour, then this thing should be his.
But at this time, the young man said without any reservation: "Grandpa Fang, I can give you money now. We will clear the money and goods on the spot, so we don't have to wait for another hour.
You offer a price, how much does this Red Flame Lotus cost?"
Pharmacist Fang was a little embarrassed and whispered: "Mingyuan, they did come first in time. If they could afford it, this..."
Mingyuan glanced at Chen Zhe and Qin Jia, and said with some disdain: "Grandpa Fang, are you sure they can take out so much money in an hour? Look at how they don't look like rich people, so don't do business with them..."
After hearing this, Qin Jia was furious on the spot.
"What did you say? Do you know what it means to be a dog's eye and look down on people?"
When Mingyuan heard this, he sneered sarcastically: "I only know that you don't have money to buy medicine, and you still have to occupy Grandpa Fang's precious medicinal materials and don't let go. It's really disgusting..."
Then he asked again: "Grandpa Fang, tell me how much is this medicinal material."
The pharmacist said: "Eight million."
Mingyuan immediately said, "It's OK. I'll give you ten million. Is it okay to sell me this red flame lotus?"
"One, ten million?"
Pharmacist Fang is a wealthy fan. When he heard that his medicinal materials could be sold for two million in an instant, his eyes were straightened.
Mingyuan also had dealing with Pharmacist Fang for many years and knew his character, so he devoted himself to his preferences and knocked him out with money.
Seeing the reaction of Pharmacist Fang, Qin Jia felt a sense of despair. Chen Zhe also understood that in front of real money and silver, Pharmacist Fang would be shaken soon.
Sure enough, the old guy smiled and turned to Chen Zhe and said, "Young man, aren't you worried about this medicinal herb? I think otherwise, I will give this red flame lotus to them this time. If I get the red flame lotus again, I will sell it to you. Is it okay?"
Chen Zhe is not a fool, of course he knows that Pharmacist Fang is fooling them.
Pharmacist Fang said just now that this red flame lotus is extremely rare, and he only got such a plant in two or three years.
If you miss this plant, how long will Chen Zhe have to wait?
Two years?
Three years?
By then, he is old, so why are he doing human upgrades? It’s better to go home early to retire.
Therefore, after hearing the persuasion of the pharmacist Fang, Chen Zhe shook his head decisively and said, "Pharmaster Fang, you must follow the rules when doing business. Since we came first and we can afford this price, we should give this medicinal material to us.
If you choose to resell the medicinal materials to others because of a premium of two million, if this matter spreads, aren’t you afraid of smashing your own sign?”
"This..." Fang Yaoshi's face changed. It was indeed a bad reputation for his news that this incident had been reported.
Mingyuan next to him sneered: "Friend, what you said is wrong. Who doesn't know that this expensive medicinal material is extremely rare. Even if it is placed on the market, it must be auctioned publicly, and the higher the price will be.
My bid is higher than you, so I should get this medicinal material. This does not involve any slap in the signature."
After listening to Mingyuan's words, Pharmacist Fang also thought it made sense. In addition, this old man was so obsessed with money. The premium of two million was too attractive to him...
After hesitating for a moment, he said: "Young man, I think Mingyuan is right. This expensive medicinal material should be auctioned. Since he has paid 10 million, then..."
Seeing that the unprincipled pharmacist was about to sell the medicinal material to Mingyuan, Chen Zhe quickly raised his hand and said, "Auction is right? Then if it is an auction, I think the price of 10 million may not be the final transaction price."
"What?" Pharmacist Fang was stunned for a moment, then his expression became happy again, and he asked, "Do you want to pay a price higher than 10 million?"
Mingyuan smiled disdainfully and said, "Grandpa Fang, what do you think? Do you think these two people look rich? It takes an hour to pay for eight million, more than ten million? I think they are bragging."
Faced with the provocation of his competitors, Chen Zhe just smiled calmly.
"Teacher Fang, give me an hour. After an hour, I will give you a better offer. I promise you." Chen Zhe said.
Looking up at Chen Zhe, Pharmacist Fang was thinking inside.
As Mingyuan said, is this young man just bragging?
Pharmacist Fang looked at Chen Zhe's eyes, but saw a hint of confidence and honesty in his eyes.
A bragging person will never have such a calm look.
So judging from the years of experience of the pharmacist, Chen Zhe was not bragging. After an hour, he could really give a better offer than 10 million.
"Okay, I'll give you an hour." Pharmacist Fang said with a smile, "I hope your new offer can impress me."
Chen Zhe nodded, then turned to Qin Jia and said, "Sister-in-law, please wait for me here. I'll go out and come back soon."
Qin Jia was still a little worried and asked in a low voice: "Chen Zhe, can you find so much money in an hour? My sister-in-law reminds you that large-scale transfers from banks often have to wait for a day or two..."
"Don't worry, I'm responsible." Chen Zhe said with a smile, "I'm going to settle this red flame lotus."
"Okay then." Qin Jia nodded slightly, then watched Chen Zhe leave.
Just after Chen Zhe left, the young man Mingyuan also took the beautiful girl beside him to the sofa next to him.
They are a sibling, and their sister is called Song Mingen and their younger brother is called Song Mingyuan, and they all live in this villa area.
Their grandfather is 87 years old this year. Due to organ failure, a series of chronic diseases have been caused. The hospital judged that their grandfather's lifespan will not exceed half a year, but the siblings tried every means to save their grandfather's life.
The red flame lotus of the prescription pharmacist is undoubtedly the best medicinal material to prosper the old man’s life.
They had already rushed over after seeing Pharmacist Fang post on Moments, but they didn't expect that they were still one step late and let Chen Zhe be ahead. Now Chen Zhe is going to compete with them again, which makes his sister Song Mingen very nervous.
"Mingyuan, what kind of quotation did you think the gentleman could make just now? He said that his quotation would definitely impress Grandpa Fang..." Song Mingen asked.
Song Mingyuan smiled disdainfully: "What are you afraid of? He can raise the quotation. Can't we? Sister, do you think we are afraid of that kid with more financial strength?"
"What I said is right..." Song Mingen nodded slightly.
She and her younger brother have a wealthy family, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they have a wealth of wealth. Even if Chen Zhe raised his quotation and added one or two million, the siblings could have directly increased the price.
At this time, Song Mingyuan said again: "In addition, if the transfer between banks is too large, it will take at least one to two working days to turn over. It is impossible for this person to take out more money than us within an hour. Don't worry."
"Yeah..." Song Mingen nodded.
After hearing her brother's persuasion, her heart was considered to be in her stomach.
And on the other side.
Chen Zhe, who left the villa area, drove to a nearby business district.
On the way here, through chatting with Qin Jia, he learned that Pharmacist Fang had three major hobbies in his life.
One is to collect medicinal materials and the other is to count money. The third hobby is to collect jade and jewelry.
Chen Zhe is very self-aware and knows that in terms of financial strength, he is definitely not the opponent of the siblings who can easily spend 10 million to buy medicinal materials. Therefore, if he wants to win this auction, he must start from another perspective.
Since he can't do more than money, then just use the prescription pharmacist to impress him with his hobbies.
After parking the car, Chen Zhe walked towards a jewelry store.
A young and beautiful female salesman immediately came to meet her.
"Sir, what do you want?"
"Well... which is the cheapest jade pendant here? Let me see." Chen Zhe asked straight to the point.
"What? The cheapest?" The female salesman looked dark, "Are you sure you want... the cheapest?"
"Yes, the cheapest one." Chen Zhe emphasized again, "Let me see."
