Chapter five hundred and sixty-six pills as a dowry
Although Wang Xu and Yang Mingyuan had not been in contact for a long time and had known each other for only three or four days, they still had a general understanding of Yang Mingyuan's personality. At this time, Yang Mingyuan proposed a betrothal gift, so naturally he did not mean to make things difficult.
But this betrothal gift is really hard to come by. Money, gold, and jewelry are naturally not rare things in the Yang family. If you really want to count them out, the pair of imperial green jade earrings and bracelets that Wang Xu gave to Yang Han are worth it.
But what has already been given away cannot be used as a betrothal gift.
In addition, it must be special, not shabby, and be eye-catching to Yang Mingyuan. There are really not many things. Wang Xu thought about it in his mind, and he actually came up with something. He touched it on his body and took it out.
He took out a porcelain vase and said with a smile: "I wonder how this can be used as a betrothal gift?"
"What is this?" Yang Mingyuan was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile: "You just take out something and try to fool me, there's no way."
"This is a good thing." Wang Xu said with a smile: "It is absolutely priceless and has no market. No matter how much you spend, you will never be able to buy it."
Yang Mingyuan didn't believe it: "It has a price but no market. Let's talk about it. If the thing you took out really has a price but no market, it's not impossible to use it as a betrothal gift."
As he spoke, Yang Mingyuan suddenly stared at the porcelain bottle in Wang Xu's hand for a while, and asked tentatively: "Isn't it the kind of pills you pretend to give to Old Fox Song?"
"Yes, you are smart, Grandpa Yang." Wang Xu smiled and flattered: "It's exactly the kind of pills given to Song Baiming. How about it? It's priceless but not marketable. This is the only one.
, no other semicolons.”
"Tch!" Yang Mingyuan showed a trace of disdain: "I thought it was a good thing. It turned out to be a few broken pills. Even if they are valuable but not marketable, it is just this one. What am I going to do?" At the end of the sentence, Yang Mingyuan deliberately pretended to be fake.
He said with an angry look: "You kid are not cursing me to die early, are you?"
"Uh!" Wang Xu was stunned for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "You are overthinking this. This is not an ordinary pill. Don't forget what kind of disease Song Baiming is. He has reached the end of his life. To put it bluntly, he is at the end of his life. I
This pill can give him two more years of life, do you think it’s a good thing?”
"What do you mean?" This time Yang Mingyuan heard some meaning and asked tentatively.
"This pill is not a pill to treat a certain disease, but a pill to prolong life. Song Baiming's situation can still extend his life for two years, but what if he is a better person?" Wang Xu blinked and said.
"You mean, this pill can not only extend the life of patients like Song Laohu, but also extend the life of healthy people?" Yang Mingyuan couldn't sit still anymore, stood up, put his hands on the table, leaned forward, and asked with hot eyes.
road.
It's no wonder that Yang Mingyuan lost his composure. If the effect of this pill is really as miraculous as Wang Xu said, it will definitely be hard to find with thousands of gold, hard to buy with ten thousand gold, priceless but not marketable, and the precious ones cannot be more precious.
For most poor people, what is important is money. Many people even have the idea of exchanging a few decades of life for a large sum of wealth, and then live happily for a few years, and then everything is over.
But for most rich people, what is most important is life. No matter how much money you have, you cannot live for two more years. Since ancient times, no one has died. It is all nonsense. There are very few people in this world.
People who don't want to live a few more years, especially rich people, who live a glorious life in this world are willing to suffer death.
Even Yang Mingyuan is definitely no exception. Although he has reached the age of knowing destiny and has supposedly seen through life and death, he is not an ordinary old man after all. He also has the huge Yang family behind him.
Especially this time when Song Baiming fell ill, Yang Mingyuan felt some empathy. He and Song Baiming were about the same age and had similar status. Song Baiming was critically ill and dying, so Yang Mingyuan couldn't help but feel a bit sad in his eyes. This is why he sincerely asked Wang Xu to help Song Baiming.
.
Now that Song Baiming is fine, Yang Mingyuan is naturally happy, but there is no worry in his heart. Song Baiming is fine, and he is just sick. As for himself, there is no guarantee that one day, he will not be as lucky as Song Baiming.
It's hard to say.
Precisely because of this, Yang Mingyuan couldn't help but feel excited when he heard Wang Xu talk about the efficacy of this pill. If this pill really had such efficacy, at least he wouldn't have to worry about it in two or three years.
"Haha, this pill not only has the effect of prolonging life." Wang Xu saw that Yang Mingyuan was still smiling in his heart, and continued to introduce: "At the same time, it also has the effect of improving physical fitness. After taking it, it will increase the body's own immunity and immunity.
Resistance, you will basically not suffer from diseases such as small colds and fevers, and it can also greatly improve some diseases of the elderly, how about it? "
"Seriously, if that's the case, this pill can be sold for a sky-high price if it is put up for auction." Yang Mingyuan was a little surprised. It would be great just to prolong life, and it also has the ability to improve the human body's physique.
It can be called an elixir.!
"Auction!" Wang Xu glanced at Song Baiming in surprise, curled his lips and said, "Put it out for auction. Do you know how much these pills and medicinal materials are worth in total?"
"I heard about this. It seems that the Song family spent more than 200 million to collect these medicinal materials. I heard that there are still a lot of them left, and your boy packed them all and took them away." Yang Mingyuan smiled and said: "But if this pill is
If it really has the effect you said, if you put it up for auction, you can definitely sell one pill for 100 million. I estimate that the value of your pill is only 2 to 3 million at most."
Listening to Yang Mingyuan's analysis, Wang Xu had to admire him. This old guy had absolutely no business acumen. But if it were that simple, he would really make a fortune. Wang Xu rolled his eyes and said, "The calculation is correct, but there is one thing."
Don’t forget that many of the medicinal materials here are unique and will be gone after you use them. You can’t buy them with more money, otherwise these pills would be priceless and unmarketable.”
This is the most critical point. There is no doubt about the preciousness of this pill, but it cannot be copied. Even the ancient emperors, who dominated the world, could not easily gather so many medicinal materials.
Take the Song family as an example. They are as rich as a country. It cost a lot to collect this medicinal material. Wang Xu cannot guarantee whether the Yang family can get the medicinal materials together again.
At the same time, he only made more than 20 pills this time and stopped making them again. The reason was that there were not enough medicinal materials. At the same time, the failure rate during secret refining was too high, it was too wasteful, and it was not cost-effective.
Furthermore, this pill is not an elixir and cannot cure all diseases. It does have the effect of prolonging life and improving physical fitness. Even if it prolongs life, it is not unlimited. If there were no restrictions, it would be like an immortal pill.
According to each person's constitution, two to three pills are enough for this pill. The reason why Wang Xu gave Song Baiming one pill and kept three pills was because of Song Baiming's condition. As for the follow-up consultation after half a year, he did not say half a year.
Of
Later, he gave him this pill. As for Yang Mingyuan's situation, two pills at most are enough. Song Baiming can live two more years by taking four pills. In Yang Mingyuan's case, two pills can extend his life by three to five years. The premise is still Yang Mingyuan.
Must pay attention to raising
In fact, if you really want to talk about it, this pill is only valued by rich people like Yang Mingyuan and Song Baiming. It is inevitably a bit useless for other people, and not everyone can afford it.
If this pill is really an elixir, it can cure all diseases. If Wang Xu takes a few pills for Han Yixue, wouldn't it mean that she no longer has to worry about Han Yixue? This pill is effective in treating some elderly diseases, such as high blood pressure, hyperlipidemia, etc., such as cancer.
It won't be of much use.
Of course, there is no need for Wang Xu to tell Yang Mingyuan these words. The medicinal materials alone have limitations. If they are used to make money, don't even think about it. The remaining pills Wang Xu has great uses for.
For example, give two to Yang Mingyuan, two to Shen Lao, Gao Xuemin, Cheng Pusheng, Zhou Yiqian and others. After counting the missing ones, they can be divided. Finally, four or five are left for Shen Bingjie and Wang Yimin. It is absolutely more wolves and less meat.
Yang Mingyuan was not ignorant. As soon as Wang Xu mentioned the medicinal materials, he understood immediately and said with a smile: "It seems that I am greedy. Good things are not so easy to get. That's all. I will accept your pills as a betrothal gift."
Yes, but this alone is not enough, the wedding must satisfy me, and our Xiaohan must not suffer injustice along with you."
"Don't worry about that." Wang Xu laughed, and in front of Yang Mingyuan, he hugged Yang Han and said, "It's too late for me to hurt Xiao Han, how could I let him be wronged?"
"Okay, go ahead, you are such a slippery man." Yang Mingyuan scolded Wang Xu angrily.
Wang Xu and Yang Han left Yang Mingyuan's study and checked the time. It was already past nine in the evening. They went back to the room and watched TV for a while before taking a rest.
The whole next day, Wang Xu once again accompanied Yang Han around New York for a day. Normally, Song Baiming's affairs were over, and Wang Xu should return to Hong Kong Island. After all, there were a large group of students from the special training class in Hong Kong Island.
, but he has to attend the Morgan family dinner tonight, so he can only stay in New York, and it is rare to have leisure during the day.
Of course, while wandering around during the day, there was another blond beauty in Wang Xu's group. This blond beauty was naturally Lisa, who fascinated Ray Ban. With Old Coulson's approval, Lisa was finally free.
We just need to wait for the visa and passport to be processed before we can follow Ray-Ban back to Zhongjiang.
A group of people wandered around until around six o'clock in the evening. After returning to Yang's house, Wang Xucai and Yang Han went to Kelin Castle in the suburbs. Of course, Yang Mingyuan also received the invitation, but not with Wang Xu and Yang Han.
