The next day, Zhao Tiezhu still visited Wang Xiaolan as he planned, but unfortunately Wang Xiaolan didn't even meet him.

However, this was all within Zhao Tiezhu's expectations, so Zhao Tiezhu didn't take it too seriously. Unexpectedly, several other companies named by Li Jiafu collectively refused to receive Zhao Tiezhu, which was very serious.

Zhao Tiezhu knew that Wang Xiaolan must have greeted these companies. But he never expected that Wang Xiaolan would have such a great influence in the Hunan high-end herbal medicine market.

This made Zhao Tiezhu very troubled.

"It is normal for them to monopolize advanced herbs, so I can start from the low-level ones!" There was no way, so Zhao Tiezhu could only compromise and start from the low-level herb market first.

Of course, this is just an entry point. In the end, Zhao Tiezhu still wants to occupy the advanced herbal market, but he is currently suppressed by Wang Xiaolan and needs to be ready to go.

The deep mountains and forests can be seen everywhere in Hunan, so there are many mountain herbs here, and almost every county has a market that specializes in buying and selling mountain herbs. However, in the current maturity of herbs, unless they are precious medicinal materials such as ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum, they need to be dried before they can be sold, so the market is relatively deserted.

Locals rarely grow herbs themselves, and most farmers pick them up from the mountains, so those who collect herbs are like setting up street stalls, and a box of mats and a stool can open them.

Of course, there are also some of them of scale, but very few. There are only two small companies that purchase herbal medicines in the entire market, namely the East Gate and the West Gate of the Market.

If Zhao Tiezhu wants to become bigger and stronger, he will definitely not be able to sell it on street stalls, so how much can he sell it!

"Oh, the boss is very idle!" Zhao Tiezhu came to the small company where he collected herbs in Dongmen and found that the boss was a middle-aged woman with a mole on the corner of her mouth. She was not good-looking, but her figure was really seductive.

"Of course I'm free when I don't have business!" The female boss was eating melon seeds. She looked up at Zhao Tiezhu. Seeing that he was dressed in plain clothes and didn't bring any herbs, she acted like she ignored him.

"The boss can't pour Ganoderma lucidum?" Zhao Tiezhu asked with a smile.

"Do you have Ganoderma lucidum?" The female boss jumped up and immediately changed his smile. She came to Zhao Tiezhu and said, "Brother, you have found the right place to sell medicine. We clearly marked the price here, and we are not fooling."

"Come on, come in and have a cup of tea!" The boss lady went in to get the price list, but she was worried that Zhao Tiezhu would run away, so she simply pulled Zhao Tiezhu into the house.

It is said to be a company, but there are only two large iron houses, one office and the other is a warehouse.

"Come on, brother, have a cup of tea first." The proprietress poured the cup of tea to Zhao Tiezhu, and then handed the price list.

Zhao Tiezhu couldn't help but smile bitterly when he saw the price list. It was true that the price was clearly marked, but the price of all the precious herbs was only given one, which was very low. Either the boss's wife didn't know the herbs at all, and didn't know that these herbs had to be divided into color and age. Or the boss's wife just saw that Zhao Tiezhu was young and wanted to cheat Zhao Tiezhu's medicinal materials.

Just because of the boss’s smartness just now, Zhao Tiezhu definitely has reason to believe it is the latter.

"How is it? Is the price very fair?" the boss asked anxiously.

"Boss, you may have misunderstood. I am not trying to sell Ganoderma lucidum, but I want to buy your Ganoderma lucidum." Zhao Tiezhu said with a smile.

"Collection of Ganoderma lucidum?" The boss's wife immediately shook her face when she heard this, looked at Zhao Tiezhu up and down, and asked casually, "Then how much can you give?"

"If you have one, I will charge it twice the price above. What do you think?" Zhao Tiezhu asked tentatively.

"Twice?" the boss lady smiled contemptuously, "I don't have any goods, I won't buy them for you even if I have them!"

As the boss said that, he started eating melon seeds on his own and showed impatientness to Zhao Tiezhu.

"I said, boss, I still have to do business, you should go to another place to see it!" Before Zhao Tiezhu could ask again, the boss's wife would expel the guest first.

Zhao Tiezhu didn't take it seriously, and walked out of the company with a few polite words.

"Grandmaster!"

As soon as Zhao Tiezhu walked out of the company, he heard the boss lady behind him cursing angrily.

It is not worth fighting with a woman, so Zhao Tiezhu ignored it. Anyway, the information Zhao Tiezhu wanted to get from the boss lady has already obtained.

It is not difficult to hear from the boss's words that someone from her previous house bought Ganoderma lucidum, and the price is far more than twice the purchase price. Zhao Tiezhu's next task is to find a way to get in touch with the boss's previous house.

In order to confirm his guess, Zhao Tiezhu went to another house and received a reply that was almost exactly the same as the boss's wife. However, the boss of this house seemed to be a little more real. Of course, it was also possible that he knew in advance that Zhao Tiezhu had been to the boss's wife, so he was willing to increase the price for Zhao Tiezhu.

But when Zhao Tiezhu said that he wanted to buy Ganoderma lucidum, the boss of the house also started to expel customers with a stern face like the boss's wife.

So Zhao Tiezhu concluded that Ganoderma lucidum has made a lot of money in the market.

The only question now is how to find these superiors. If you ask the boss here directly, no one will tell Zhao Tiezhu.

"I said, Hongda is coming to collect herbs tomorrow. What good things have you prepared?"

"There is no good thing? It hasn't opened yet this year!"

"No, I heard that you have collected ginseng, maybe they are willing to pay a lot of money!"

"It's all ordinary things, so people definitely don't like it!"

Zhao Tiezhu was about to leave the market, but he heard two old men who were setting up street stalls to collect herbs and talked about something, so he came over to listen.

Zhao Tiezhu, Hongda Pharmaceutical, had heard of it, but he didn't expect that such a large group company would come to a small county town to buy medicine. In order to learn more, Zhao Tiezhu gave a cigarette to each of the two old men.

"Uncle, Hongda Pharmaceutical is a nationally renowned enterprise. Can we come to our small county to collect medicinal materials?" Zhao Tiezhu asked.

"Haha, Hongda must have a special partner for medicinal materials, but Hongda's senior management still only believes in their eyes." The old man with goat beard said smoking.

"Oh!" Zhao Tiezhu nodded and said, "Can Hongda use so many ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum? I heard that some of Hongda's precious medicines produce very little."

"Scarcity is precious! Those precious medicines are Hongda's treasures for mountain control, not on output, but on quality. Therefore, Hongda will find high-quality mountain herbs nationwide every six months, and the requirements are simply harsh. However, once selected, Hongda will pay much more than in the market."

"Oh!" Zhao Tiezhu nodded, then hurriedly left the market after saying politely.

"Hey, Uncle Li, hurry up the mountain and get me two Ganoderma lucidum from Dilongquan." As soon as he walked out of the market, Zhao Tiezhu called Li Jiafu.

"What are you going to do?" Li Jiafu asked in confusion.

"I'll tell you again, go quickly! After picking it, I'll send it to the county town. I'll wait. I'll definitely deliver it tomorrow morning!" Zhao Tiezhu said in a hurry, and hung up the phone after he said that.
Chapter completed!
