Chapter 51 The Millennium Ginseng King

At the last rough diamond auction, the video of his wife fooling around with others had completely humiliated him for the rest of his life. If it weren't for his father-in-law, he would have divorced that slut long ago.

Even if they are not divorced now, the marriage is in name only and the two of them are doing their own thing.

After learning that Shen Yuxuan ordered someone to play the video, Li Junyi put the blame on Lin Yu's head. He had to return this cuckold to Lin Yu.

So he carefully hatched a plan to lure Jiang Yan to Ling'an, which was his territory. Once Jiang Yan passed by, he would never escape from his grasp.

"Jiang Yan, I said that you will be mine sooner or later."

After Li Junyi came out of the hospital, he looked at the photo in his hand calmly, then got into a black car and sped away.

"I'm going on a business trip again, are you happy?"

Three days later, Jiang Yan said to Lin Yu while admiring the long dress she just bought in front of the floor-length mirror.

"Why do you have to go on a business trip again?" Lin Yu frowned, why is this hospital so busy?

"I can't help it. It's been like this since I first joined the job. I have to find a place to study more. This is the place our director finally fought for for me." Jiang Yan replied.

"Is it still the capital?" Lin Yu asked curiously.

"No, this time we are going to Ling'an."

"Ling'an?" Lin Yu sat up immediately. In fact, Ling'an is very close to Qinghai. It can be reached in forty or fifty minutes by train. But when he thought that Li Junyi also belonged to Ling'an, Lin Yu felt inexplicably worried.

"How about I go with you?" Lin Yu thought for a while and said.

"Whatever you do, I'm here to learn."

"I have nothing to do when I'm at home. I just happened to go over and have some fun. It also saves you from being jealous while I'm at home." Lin Yu said with a smile.

"Jealous? You're being sentimental!" Jiang Yan quickly turned around and entered the room, feeling somewhat guilty for no reason.

At Lin Yu's strong request, Jiang Yan had no choice but to take him to Ling'an. However, the hospital only paid for her own expenses, and Lin Yu had to bear her own expenses.

When Jiang Yan arrived at the hotel, she tacitly agreed that Lin Yu could stay in a room with her, but Lin Yu took the initiative to open an extra room and lived next door to Jiang Yan.

Because the academic conference will be held for two days, they will stay here for three nights.

"Mr. Li, the person you asked me to pay attention to is here."

In a towering mirrored building, Li Junyi was sitting in a spacious office drinking coffee. A man in a black jacket next to him handed him several secretly taken photos of Lin Yu and Jiang Yan entering and leaving the hotel.

"He's here too?"

Li Junyi was a little surprised when he saw Lin Yu in the photo, and then smiled coldly. Thinking of all the moments when Lin Yu made him look embarrassed at the auction, he immediately became itchy with hatred. He clutched Lin Yu's photo tightly and said coldly.

He said, "You came just in time. Now that you are here, don't leave."

"Call the hotel manager and ask him to act according to the plan." Li Junyi ordered.

Almost all the high-end hotels in Ling'an have business dealings with him, so no matter which hotel Jiang Yan stays in, he can give her orders.

"Mr. Li, about this man, should I look for Huazi and the others..."

Before Black Jacket finished speaking, Li Junyi waved his hand and frowned and said, "This He Jiarong seems to have learned some fighting skills in the past few years. It is not something that ordinary people can deal with. To be on the safe side, find a few retired special forces soldiers to play with him. I want to

Let him not be able to live or die!"

Li Junyi went crazy with anger when he thought of the scene of Jiang Yan's perfect figure being pressed down by Lin Yu and being sweet and happy.

When Jiang Yan went to attend an academic exchange meeting the next day, Lin Yu walked around some famous local attractions.

Speaking of Ling'an, the most famous scenic spot is Snow Lake. It is said that in winter, when the temperature is suitable, snow can fall on the lake without melting.

Unfortunately, it was early autumn, and Lin Yu was not lucky enough to see this spectacle.

"Get out! It stinks!"

At this moment, a clear drink suddenly came. Lin Yu turned his head curiously and saw a woman in white driving an old man out with a broom at the door of a traditional Chinese medicine store nearby.

The old man who was driven out was dirty and messy, his gray hair was tied into knots one by one, and he had a faint smell of strange smell.

"I'm not begging for food, I'm here to sell medicinal materials." The old man quickly took down the bamboo basket behind his back, took out some cicada sloughs, dried centipedes and some medicinal herbs, and said, "I picked these all by myself from the mountains. They are natural."

of."

Ling'an is surrounded by mountains and has a long history. Some valuable medicinal materials are common in the deep mountains and old forests. Many farmers who make a living by collecting medicinal materials will go directly to the city's pharmacies to sell them after collecting the medicinal materials.

"We've collected enough of these, we don't want any more," the clerk said with some disgust.

"What about this ginseng? Just collect the ginseng." The old man said as he took out a piece of rag from his backpack and carefully opened it, revealing a thing as thick as a baby's arm with a long beard on it.

With the mud roots and other debris removed, it looks like a radish.

"We accept ginseng, but not radishes. Get out of here!" The clerk pinched his nose and couldn't bear it anymore.

"Nonsense, this is genuine wild ginseng. I dug it from the mountain with all the hard work." The old man was a little unhappy when he heard this.

"Then you can go sell it somewhere else. We won't accept it here anyway!" The clerk raised the broom in his hand, as if he was going to take action if the old man didn't leave.

"Old man, can you let me take a look?"

Lin Yu's eyes suddenly lit up when he discovered that the wild ginseng covered with soil was shining with a rich green light, so he hurried over.

The old man was stunned for a moment, handed the ginseng in his hand to Lin Yu, and said, "Young man, I really dug this from the mountains. If you want it, I'll give it to you cheaper."

Lin Yu turned over the ginseng in his hand and took a closer look, and found that it was really a wild ginseng, and it was of many years old, at least hundreds of years old, and most likely even thousands of years old.

Wild ginseng of this age can really be called a panacea.

Lin Yu suppressed the excitement in his heart and said calmly, "Old man, how much do you want to sell this wild ginseng? It doesn't have to be cheap, just ask the normal price."

Jiang Yan gave Lin Yu her bank card when she went out, so Lin Yu now felt confident in speaking.

"Twenty...twenty thousand?" the old man asked tentatively.

"I'll pay 50,000," Lin Yu said hurriedly.

"Fifty thousand?!" The old man opened his mouth in shock.

"Is it less? If not, I can add another ten thousand." Lin Yu said. He didn't know how much money was in the card Jiang Yan gave him, so he didn't dare to quote easily.

"There are so many fools these days. Let me tell you, such a big ginseng cannot be wild ginseng!" The clerk at the drugstore just now couldn't help but roll his eyes and said in a disdainful tone.

Last time he received a false ginseng by mistake and was fined a month's salary by the pharmacy, so now he does not dare to accept such things at will.

"Okay, okay, 60,000, just 60,000!" The old man grabbed Lin Yu's arm excitedly, fearing that Lin Yu would run away in the blink of an eye.

"I'll pay 80,000!"

Unexpectedly, a voice suddenly came from behind, and an old man in a white coat walked over quickly. It was the doctor at this traditional Chinese medicine store. After seeing the ginseng in the old man's hand, he also quoted a price.

.

He has been practicing medicine for decades and has handled thousands of Chinese medicinal materials. He could tell at a glance that the ginseng in the old man's hand was of some value, so he hurriedly opened a bid.

When the clerk saw that the old doctor had followed the bidding, his expression suddenly changed and he regretted a little. He had known that he would have collected it at a low price.

"One hundred thousand!" Lin Yu immediately bit the price up.

"One hundred and twenty thousand!" The old doctor was also cruel, thinking he could make a profit, so he followed.

"Three hundred thousand!" Lin Yu raised the price to 300,000 in desperation. He felt that even if the card Jiang Yan gave him did not have enough money, he could call Jiang Yan to transfer the money to him.

The old doctor stopped following this time. He shook his head with a smile and said with a smile, "Young man, it is still profitable to buy this ginseng for more than 100,000 yuan, but 300,000 yuan is too high."

"Master, his accent sounds like a foreigner. He doesn't know the situation in Ling'an at all." The clerk snorted coldly and looked at Lin Yu as if he were a fool.

"What do you mean?" Lin Yu asked confused.

"Young man, ginseng of this size is not uncommon in Ling'an. It is a kind of genetically modified ginseng. In recent years, many people have specialized in large-scale production, using purebred ginseng for hybridization and mass production of hybrid ginseng, so we collect ginseng.

Always be very careful."

The old doctor patiently explained, "This ginseng does look like wild ginseng in appearance, but it is impossible to have such a big wild ginseng. It should be a hybrid. I just want to compare it with other hybrid ginseng. Its medicinal value is more."

It’s just higher.”

"Nonsense, this is pure wild ginseng. I dug it myself!" The old man became anxious when he heard this, and hurriedly explained to Lin Yu.

"Young man, there are many scammers nowadays, be careful of being deceived." The old doctor reminded Lin Yu unhurriedly.

"I believe this old man." Lin Yu smiled, and then asked the old man, "Do you want cash or transfer."

"Cash is fine, cash." Seeing Lin Yu say this, the old man couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, "I'll give you a discount, just 280,000."

Lin Yu went with him to the bank nearby to withdraw money. When the old man saw so much money, his eyes widened. He quickly packed it tightly in his arms with a rag bag and ran away as if running away.

"Young man, you've been fooled!"

"Such a large ginseng is obviously a hybrid."

"You can still make some money by putting it in a drug store, but its medicinal value is actually very low. If you put it in the hands of an individual, it won't be worth tens of thousands of dollars!"

The bidding between Lin Yu and the old doctor just now caused the people around to stop and watch. Some of them knew a lot about ginseng and couldn't help but comment.

"Old sir, you have lived so long that you have never seen the thousand-year-old ginseng king, right?" Lin Yu said with a smile, "Please find me a basin of water, and I will let you see it."

"Young man, I'm afraid you'll cry soon." The old Chinese medicine doctor shook his head and smiled, then ordered the clerk to bring out a basin of water.
