Luo Han didn't expect that when he asked Chen Xiao to help check Guan Xuelian's treatment regarding ginseng, Hu Liang misunderstood him and then made a troublesome call to the head of the technical department to sell it.
The next morning, after receiving some ordinary cost breakdown ledgers from Lei Yun, Luo Han called Guan Xuelian. As expected, she had not bought the wild ginseng she needed.
Guan Xuelian's voice on the phone sounded muffled, low and depressed: "I really didn't expect that wild ginseng is so rare now. It is available in pharmacies, but they are only 5-6 years old. The price is
It’s not cheap either. One plant cost at least 7,000 to 8,000 yuan. The ones that are more than 10 years old have been ordered by rich people and there is no stock. Moreover, the waiters also said that the ones that are more than 10 years old usually cost at least 60,000 yuan.
How can you get so much money after working for a year?"
No, with a monthly salary of 6,000 to 7,000 yuan, you still can’t save less than 50,000 yuan a year?
Luo Han was quite surprised, but besides being surprised, he was a little lucky and asked quickly: "Which pharmacies did you go to?"
"I have been to Tong Ren Tang, Hui Chun Tang, Han Fang Tang, and Hu Qing Yu Tang. I dare not go to other small pharmacies for fear of being deceived."
"Then, is your mother in need of help?"
"Yes, she said it would be best to send it back this week."
An undeniable smile immediately appeared on the corner of Luo Han's mouth: It seems that the time is almost up, God once again favored him and gave him a chance to perform.
He advised her softly: "In this case, you go home and have a good rest first, and I will figure out a solution for the ginseng."
"You?" Guan Xuelian hesitated and asked tentatively: "You want to ask Assistant Chen for help?"
Luohan smiled and praised: "You are so smart!"
I thought that Guan Xuelian would immediately breathe a sigh of relief, but to Luo Han's surprise, after a moment of silence on the phone, Guan Xuelian simply refused: "This is not good! Luo Han, I know you and Chen
The assistant has a good relationship, but the value of wild ginseng is too high. If you take it from Assistant Chen, Assistant Chen may not mind, but if Director Chen finds out about it, Director Chen will definitely feel uncomfortable. I don’t want you to get it from Assistant Chen.
I will affect your development in the company."
"..." Luohan was very surprised.
After a brief moment of surprise, Luo Han's heart, which had been tempered by the pressure of the world and became increasingly tough, was deeply touched. I never expected that Guan Xuelian, who had always been cold and cold, would be so pure, independent, and in harmony with herself.
Once the relationship with her is established and developed, he will consider himself so much that he is not willing to face difficulties from friends and bosses for her sake!
Don’t girls always like to instruct their boyfriends to do this or that?
The sisters in the orphanage usually like to ask themselves to help them no matter what happens, no matter how many difficulties they will face in the process of solving the problem or how much it will cost.
I really found a unique girlfriend!
After being touched, Luo Han also felt a little ashamed in his heart, because of all the scheming he had used to let her know the value of wild ginseng, and also because of his own emotional selfishness.
I still underestimated her!
Guan Xuelian's weight in his heart suddenly increased.
Blinking, he softened his voice again and comforted her with kind words: "Don't worry, I won't make it difficult for Chen Xiao. He and I are brothers, money is money, and we will not mix things up. You go home well."
Rest, I’ll call him first and ask him, and I’ll get back to you later.”
Then, without waiting for Guan Xuelian to reply, he hung up the phone.
Of course there are things, it just depends on how they are delivered to Guan Xuelian.
After thinking for a few seconds, Luo Han went directly to Li Na's small office, knocked on the door gently, and then walked in politely: "Sister Na, I'm sorry, I have something to do and I want to take a half-day off."
Li Na was looking down at an accounting report. When she heard this, she raised her head and saw that he looked very serious, so she thought thoughtfully: "You should know about Xiaolian's family?"
Luo Han nodded calmly: "Yes, we didn't separate until almost ten o'clock last night. She took leave today to go to the pharmacy. I just asked, and she hasn't found the right wild ginseng yet. But I think her father's body can't
Delayed, so I plan to go find Chen Xiao."
Li Na's expression softened, and there was a smile of understanding in her eyes: "Okay, you can go and come back early in the afternoon!".
Although I don't like newcomers asking for leave as soon as they start working, Luo Han has a special status and he wants to help Guan Xuelian, so he can be accommodating.
Luo Han knew this would be the result, but he still bowed gratefully: "Thank you, Sister Na, I'll leave first!"
The wild ginseng was still in the rental house, and Luo Han had to wait until Guan Xuelian was not at home before he could easily take it out. Therefore, after leaving Li Na's office, Luo Han said hello to Lei Yun, locked the drawer, and hurried to 2
I left the Mandarin Building within 30 minutes, then hailed a taxi on the street and rushed to the rental house in a hurry. I arrived in less than 30 minutes. I climbed up to the sixth floor in one breath and calmed down my shortness of breath.
, and then he made a phone call to Guan Xuelian, who was already very anxious, to confirm the location.
Knowing that Guan Meimei was still wandering near the pharmacy at this time and it would take half an hour to come back, Luo Han felt relieved and clearly informed that he had bought a 10-year-old wild ginseng from Chen Xiao and made an appointment.
We met at the rental house an hour later, then hung up the phone, opened the door, entered his room, smashed one of the pots of wild ginseng and took it out, picked off the branches and leaves, then turned on the fire to dry it a little, and then
I quickly cleared away the relevant traces, stopped the fan and humidifier that had been working for two days, and sat in the living room waiting for Guan Xuelian's arrival.
This fresh ginseng is different from the wild ginseng sold in pharmacies. It has more water and is heavier. However, Luo Han also thought of this before. As long as Chen Xiao can cooperate with his statement, there is no big problem. I believe that with Guan Xuelian's character,
I wouldn't go to Chen Lizhu directly to thank him.
When the time just passed 11:30 noon, Guan Xuelian, covered in dust, returned to the rental house anxiously.
As soon as she entered the door, she saw Luo Han who was watching TV in the living room. She didn't even bother to take off her shoes and asked eagerly: "Where is the ginseng?"
Luo Han smiled slightly and flashed the ginseng in his hand: "This is it!"
Although the process was a bit fake, the items were actually genuine, so he didn't feel guilty.
Guan Xuelian breathed a sigh of relief, quickly approached, took a look, and then wrinkled her two natural and thick eyebrows in confusion: "It seems different from the ones sold in the drugstore. It is much heavier and much bigger."
He rolled his slightly tired eyes and asked uncertainly: "Is this... freshly unearthed?"
Secretly admiring her eyesight, Luo Han nodded: "Yes. Chen Xiao has a friend who specializes in selling this newly dug fresh product, which is used to brew wine. The effect is much better than dry products. I just got this one.
, whoever sells it will sell it, Chen Xiao made a guarantee for me, and just pay him a little money every month. But you'd better send it home early, it's so hot, this thing will break easily."
Believing that Luo Han would not lie to him about this kind of thing, the pressure on Guan Xuelian's face quickly disappeared, and there was a smile of relief: "Thank you! In addition, you also thank Assistant Chen for me! How much does this thing cost?"
I give you!"
Knowing that she thought the ginseng was too valuable and was too embarrassed to accept it, Luo Han pretended to be unhappy and said with a straight face: "Your father is sick, so I should be filial to you, shouldn't I? You want me to be your boyfriend.
Just don’t ask me for money!”
This is the first time he has explicitly acknowledged their relationship.
Meeting his affectionate gaze, Guan Xuelian felt really good, but after all, this was not a small amount of money. She still shook her head: "This is different. If you give a few hundred yuan as a gift, I will definitely not be polite to you.
, but this ginseng is too valuable..."
Tens of thousands of dollars!
"No matter how expensive it is, it's not as important as your happiness! It's not as important as your parents' safety!" Luo Han interrupted her refusal without explanation: "Besides, you forgot, I made a little money some time ago, and I still have some left after buying a house.
, although it’s not much, it’s enough to buy a wild ginseng plant. Okay, let’s not discuss this issue anymore. You’d better quickly think about how to send this thing home.”
Guan Xuelian looked at him tenderly, with an uncontrollable smile on her lips, and she became much more docile: "Second uncle called me this morning and said that there was nothing he could do about wild ginseng, but he could ask my cousin to drive me.
Go home. Go back at high speed. If everything goes well, maybe we can make it back before ten o'clock in the evening!"
She only took one day off.
Luo Han understood. The landlord was also smart. If he really wanted wild ginseng, it would be hard for him to accept his niece's money. After all, it was to save his brother's life. But if he wanted to give it directly, he would probably feel bad, otherwise he would have been worried about it in the first place.
He wouldn't let his niece live with him for 300 yuan, so he simply said he couldn't find it, and then paid a few hundred yuan in gas money to let his son take his niece home, as if they were cousins.
Having said that, Guan Xuelian rents here all year round, and the monthly rent she pays is about the same as him.
"Okay, I'll accompany you to your second uncle's house and pay this month's rent on the way."
