Transmigration: I Have Storage Space in the Apocalypse novel Chapter 742

Chapter 742: Chapter 738: The Background Really Looks Like Xie Jingchen

——————

Speaking of serious matters, the two women both looked earnest.

Chen Xiufang took out a stack of papers from her lady’s bag and pulled out one to hand to Yan Jinsu, while still explaining:

"Ni, take a look at the content of this paper."

Yan Jinsu nodded, carefully reading each word with her delicate apricot eyes.

"The old medicine man who popped up this time is surnamed Fu, and he is quite famous in Z county town. In his youth, Elder Fu was a well-known medicine seeker, but he stopped heading to the mountains because, ten years ago, his son met a tragic fate in the deep mountains.

Had it not been for his grandson being bitten by a poisonous creature while mountain climbing with classmates earlier this year, and treatment being delayed causing sluggish lower body response, the old man would not have resumed his former occupation."

Just at that moment, Yan Jinsu also read about Elder Fu’s legendary life, thinking about the sorrow of trading white hair for black, with his son dying in the deep mountains while seeking herbs - certainly a great blow to the old man. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

"Right, no wonder this old medicine man acts this way. For his only grandson, what is a bit of shame compared to health."

Chen Xiufang was briefly stifled by Ni’s understanding comment, thinking to herself, well, what Ni says does seem to make some sense.

The one who is severely ill isn’t her relative; she truly just blames the old medicine man for acting unethically, yet she can’t fault his grandfatherly compassion.

"Currently, through Chen Dongzhe’s inquiries, we roughly know that there are seven pharmaceutical companies participating in the auction, including our Zhongdan Pharmaceutical."

Chen Dongzhe is Chen Xiufang’s eldest nephew, already over twenty years old. For the past three years, he has been working with Chen Xiufang at Zhongdan Pharmaceutical, and he has now become her right-hand man.

"That’s good, when is the auction time? What’s the starting price?"

"Tomorrow at three in the afternoon, just across the street from this hotel, in the largest cinema. The starting price is sixty thousand, with each increment of a thousand."

Century-old ginseng, though sold outside, typically fetches around one hundred thousand [fictionally].

So, the starting price of sixty thousand isn’t really excessive.

"How much cash did we bring?" Yan Jinsu frowned, noting that carrying large sums of money across provinces is indeed problematic.

"Since I didn’t expect them to act like this, I thought ten thousand would be enough to secure the century-old ginseng, so, I only prepared one hundred thousand."

Chen Xiufang really felt depressed when saying this.

In previous years, century-old ginseng aged one hundred and twenty years would sell for ninety-three thousand.

But now, Elder Fu has set an auction mode starting at sixty thousand, leaving only a margin of forty thousand, such a narrow gap could easily cause a miscalculation.

"Don’t worry, now that we know what Elder Fu is lacking, our chances are even greater!"

Yan Jinsu thought, since he was a distinguished medicine seeker, though he hadn’t been to the deep mountains in recent years, he must have earned a decent amount of money.

People, aren’t afraid of troubles, they fear illnesses. Therefore, for those who are wealthier, no amount of money matters if there’s no life to enjoy it.
