Rebirth 78, marry Qingmei as my wife

Chapter 959: Backstab by Three Veteran Chinese Medicine Practitioners

When they saw the ginseng in the jade box, Mr. Li, Mr. Hu, and Mr. Luo's eyes suddenly lit up.

As a Chinese medicine practitioner, seeing good medicinal materials is like a collector seeing a Chenghua Doucai Chicken Cup or Yuan blue and white porcelain.

It's like a century-old pervert seeing Ozawa, Aoi, Yui, and Ishihara.

If they hadn't taken their status into consideration, the three of them would have taken action long ago.

"As you like!" Liu Hongjun smiled and gestured with his hand.

Although Mr. Li is over sixty years old, his movements are very agile. He quickly put on white gloves and then reached out to pick up the seventh-grade leaf ginseng.

Mr. Hu and Mr. Luo were a step too slow and failed to grab the seventh-grade leaf ginseng.

He could only reach out and pick up the sixth-grade leaf ginseng and examine it carefully.

"Beautiful. I haven't seen such beautiful ginseng in many years."

"This Luwan, this shape, and these pearl spots, are simply perfect."

"Beautiful, this pearl class is just like the stars in the sky."

The three Chinese medicine experts could not help but praise him.

These three ginsengs were specially selected by Liu Hongjun in order to maximize profits.

The ginseng he picked out was naturally the one with the most perfect shape.

Ginseng can generally be identified based on its shape, that is, appearance, color, taste, texture, etc.

Shape, that is, the appearance, can be further divided into several aspects such as reed, taro, body, texture, skin, and legs for identification.

The vast majority of wild ginseng are round reeds. As they age, the upper reed bowl gradually disappears and becomes cylindrical, hence the name round reed. The reed body has tight segments, and the upper four sides are densely covered with naturally grown reed bowls. The edge of the bowl is jagged and shaped like horse teeth, hence the name horse tooth reed. Bamboo reeds and thread reeds are rarely grown.

Taro, the taro of wild ginseng is mostly in the shape of a date pit, growing vertically and drooping, not stretching upward. If there are more than two branches, they grow alternately.

Identification of details such as body, patterns, skin, legs, etc. requires a lot of professional knowledge, in addition to color and smell.

Mr. Li, Mr. Hu and Mr. Luo made the appraisal very carefully. They would hold up the ginseng from time to time and smell it carefully near their noses.

That action, that expression, really looks like an old pervert holding a woman's feet in black stockings and placing them to his nose to savor them carefully.

Liu Hongjun sat on the sofa, waiting quietly.

He has confidence in his ginseng, as the saying goes, a good woman will never have trouble finding a husband.

He was not worried at all that he could not sell his ginseng.

No matter it is the seventh-grade leaf or the sixth-grade leaf, they are rare treasures that cannot be missed.

Qian Shengli and the other two stood not far away, watching the three old men identifying the ginseng with some nervousness.

“This seventh-grade leaf ginseng is a very rare treasure, absolutely a treasure. Even the emperor in the past would have regarded it as a treasure if he had obtained such a ginseng.

Although it is not a thousand-year-old ginseng, it is not an exaggeration to call it a thousand-year-old ginseng.

For many people, a ginseng like this is a life.

Just a small piece of this kind of ginseng can save lives and provide precious time for doctors to treat them. "After a long while, Mr. Li finally put down the seventh-grade leaf ginseng and said solemnly.

Mr. Hu was quick-witted and immediately picked up the seventh-grade leaf ginseng and began to examine it carefully.

"Mr. Li, how much is this thousand-year-old ginseng worth?"

“Priceless treasure!

No amount of money can buy back a human life. This thousand-year-old ginseng can save lives, which is equivalent to a human life.

How much is a human life worth?" Mr. Li said with some emotion.

Zheng Weihe, a middle-aged man who is the manager of Sotheby's, couldn't help but complain in his heart after hearing what Mr. Li said.

As the manager of an auction house, he has seen too many priceless treasures, and all of them will eventually have a suitable price.

He is also the best at putting a price on priceless treasures.

Don't get me wrong, Zheng Wei and this manager are similar to business managers in later generations.

Zheng Weihe's position was also a business manager, which meant his status was slightly higher than those of business managers in later generations.

"Mr. Liu, let's talk about the auction of these three ginsengs, including one thousand-year-old ginseng and two hundred-year-old ginsengs." Zheng Weihe looked at Liu Hongjun seriously and said.

“As for auctions, I believe Sotheby’s is professional.

There is a saying that goes, leave professional matters to professionals.

I respect Manager Zheng's opinion on how to auction it." Liu Hongjun said with a faint smile.

“Thank you Mr Liu for your trust.

Just now Mr. Li said that these three ginsengs are priceless treasures. I respect Mr. Li’s opinion on this point.

However, no matter whether it is a thousand-year-old ginseng or other cultural relics, as long as they enter the auction house, there will be a price. "Zheng Weihe said to Liu Hongjun in a very graceful and unhurried manner.

Liu Hongjun nodded in approval.

Seeing Liu Hongjun nodded, Zheng Weihe immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

He is not afraid of the estimated price being high, but he is afraid that the seller has no idea.

When they hear comments like priceless treasure and invaluable, they lose their bearings and immediately offer a sky-high price.

When faced with such a person, even Zheng Weihe, who is very good at conversation and communication, is helpless.

"My valuation of the thousand-year-old ginseng is 50 million Hong Kong dollars, and the hundred-year-old ginseng is 5 million Hong Kong dollars." Zheng Weihe weighed the pros and cons in his mind and gave his own valuation.

“Manager Zheng, if it’s this price, I won’t send it to Sotheby’s. As long as the word gets out, there will be people coming to buy it.

Let me give you an estimate. The estimated value of a thousand-year-old ginseng is HK$100 million, and the estimated value of a hundred-year-old ginseng is HK$10 million.

As for your starting price, I respect your opinion.

As long as it exceeds my estimated price, it can be sold directly without being auctioned." Liu Hongjun looked at Zheng Weihe and said seriously.

"Mr. Liu..."

Zheng Weihe was just about to persuade Liu Hongjun to lower the estimate when Mr. Li spoke up.

"Mr. Liu, is what you just said true? Can you buy out the thousand-year-old ginseng directly for 100 million?"

"If that's the case, I can help you get in touch.

I am Mr. Superman's health doctor, and I believe he will be happy to pay for it." As soon as Mr. Li finished speaking, Mr. Hu spoke up.

"I am Mr. Zheng's personal doctor. The price is 100 million yuan, and Mr. Zheng is willing to pay this money." Mr. Luo also spoke up.

"Mr. Li, Mr. Hu, Mr. Luo, what you are doing is against the rules. You are the appraisers hired by Sotheby's." Zheng Weihe frowned and reminded them.

"Xiao Zheng, don't worry.

I believe Mr. Huo would be happy to owe you a favor." Mr. Li said calmly.

Liu Hongjun was listening nearby and finally understood.

These three veteran Chinese doctors were only invited temporarily by Sotheby's.

They were all famous Chinese medicine practitioners in Hong Kong and knew many big bosses.

For example, Liu Hongjun guessed that the boss Huo mentioned by Mr. Li might be the red capitalist.

For example, Mr. Superman should be Banana Li.
