Chapter 370: No

Chen Jing was not surprised when the sweeping uncle said that, and replied: "Yes; Uncle Liu, I came to you for this reason."

"If you don't give, don't give." The sweeping old man refused with a firm attitude.

After a moment of pause, he looked at Chen Jing and said, "Young man, that is, I think you are a pretty good person, otherwise I would have driven people with a broom."

"My wild ginseng has been around for nearly a hundred years. Do you know what this means? As long as you have a breath and hold a little bit in your mouth, you can hold your life and gain more time to rescue."

"How many people died because they lacked a few minutes of rescue time?"

Chen Jing heard this and said, "Yes, I know that your wild ginseng is very precious."

The preciousness of wild ginseng that has been around for nearly a hundred years is indeed self-evident, and to some extent it is indeed something that can save lives.

In the 2000s, a hundred-year-old wild ginseng plant was sold at a high price of more than 800,000 yuan at the auction.

That's more than 800,000 in the past few years.

Until now, the transaction price of millions is just the most basic, not to mention that the wild ginseng that can grow in the mountains for a hundred years has almost disappeared due to over-picking in recent years.

Although the wild ginseng plant in Liu Junqi's hand is not a hundred years old, it must still be in the years of eighty or ninety years. It is very rare in today's environment.

"It's good that you know, so I can't give it to that old guy. Why did you listen to his tricks and ask me what I want?" The sweeping man snorted coldly and spoke.

Chen Jing hurriedly said, "Uncle Liu, listen to me first."

"I don't want the whole plant, I just want a little root, and it's not in vain. I'll buy it at a high price."

"Just as long as the root?" The sweeping old man shook his head when he heard this: "I don't give the roots. If you want to use them yourself, I can still consider selling points for you, but it won't work for that old guy."

Chen Jing was slightly stunned and thought to himself how cruel the Sweeping Master had offended this sweeping master?

But then I thought of the strange temper of the Medicine King Sun, it seemed that it was quite normal for him to offend the sweeping master to this extent.

"Uncle Liu, please help me. Didn't I find someone when I came up the mountain? The old man is familiar with the hermits on the mountain. I want to ask him for some information..." Chen Jing briefly said the matter.

Finally, he said: "Don't worry, as long as you are willing to sell me a little, the price will definitely satisfy you."

The sweeping uncle still shook his head: "This is not a matter of money. The old guy came to me several times and asked me to give him wild ginseng for free. He also said that when my family is sick, he can find him. Why never treat people outside the mountain? Can he make an exception to treat my family? Is it my family's honor?"

"Young man, are you angry about this?"

Chen Jing nodded awkwardly. The Medicine King Sun was indeed quite annoying, but considering that the other party lived in seclusion in the mountains and almost did not contact people outside, it was not unreasonable to say those words.

"You also think it's right to be angry, so I can't give it to him. Nothing you say is useless." After saying this, the sweeper did not give Chen Jing any other chance, and turned around and left.

Seeing this, Kong Xue was a little anxious: "Xiao Chen, let's catch up and discuss with the uncle."

Chen Jing shook his head and said, "No, now he is firm in his attitude. No matter how much he discusses, it will be useless. I can't hurry up. It's getting late. Let's go back first, and I'll think of a solution."

"Brother Chen, why don't you bid directly? If the price is high enough, then the old man should be moved." He Mengqi asked in confusion.

Chen Jing smiled and said, "It's useless. Mr. Liu should not be short of money. Otherwise, he would have sold a wild ginseng that has been around for nearly a hundred years. If I had made a direct offer, it might be counterproductive."

"Oh, that's it." He Mengqi suddenly realized and responded.

"Let's go, go down the mountain first. You will be back to school tomorrow. Tonight, your sister Xue and I will treat you to a big meal." Chen Jing turned and said again.

He is really not in a hurry at this moment, because as long as it is not a matter of principle, anyone's attitude can be changed, as long as he can find the right method.

The sweeping uncle didn't want to give the roots of wild ginseng to the king's grandson, but because he got angry, this was not a principled problem. At most, it was a bit troublesome to solve, but there was definitely a chance to solve it.

In fact, for Chen Jing, what he was afraid of was never to solve the problem, but to be unable to find the direction.

…………

That night, Chen Jing and Kong Xue invited He Mengqi to a big meal, and thanked each other for their help over the past few days.

He Mengqi was a little reluctant to leave and didn't want to go back to school. She felt very regretful that she didn't take her sister Xue to all the fun places in Chang'an.

In response, Kong Xue naturally comforted her and said that Chen Jing had opened a shop here, and the two of them had the chance to come to Chang'an in the future, so they could go and have fun next time.

After seeing off He Mengqi, the couple returned to the hotel they were staying.

On the way, Kong Xue specially found a shopping mall to buy some good tea. She was a little uncomfortable with the tea bags brought by the hotel and was worried that her eldest boy would not be able to drink them.

"Xiao Chen~ What are you going to do about the wild ginseng?"

In the hotel, Kong Xue asked softly while making tea.

Chen Jing took his mobile phone to look through some things and replied: "I'll first see if I can buy the roots of the Centennial Wild Ginseng from other channels."

"What the Medicine King Sun wants is a wild ginseng that is a hundred years old or nearly a hundred years old. As long as it can reach this year, is it the one in Uncle Liu's hand or something else, it is actually the same."

The request of the Medicine King Sun was that Chen Jing could not buy some ordinary wild ginseng roots to fool him, but the same age as that of Liu Junqi, would definitely be possible.

Kong Xuedao: "It's hard to buy wild ginseng for a hundred years."

"Well, I'm afraid it's a little difficult in a short period of time." Chen Jing put down his phone, and was quite helpless, and said, "I'm going to discuss with Mr. Liu while seeing if I can buy it from other channels. In short, this matter can be solved no matter how it is."

"That's good." Kong Xue poured a cup of tea for Chen Jing and asked, "Hey, Xiao Chen~ Is the prescription you said about Medicine King Sun really useful?"

Chen Jing couldn't help but sigh in his heart when he heard this. The prescription mentioned by Yao Wangsun is indeed quite attractive to women.

"It is likely to be useful." Chen Jing responded seriously.

"Really?" Kong Xue's eyes lit up slightly.

"Well, because he is indeed the descendant of the Medicine King Sun Simiao, and he is also the direct descendant passed down from generation to generation."
