ed down to one thing.Xu Shaolin got the prescription wrong, and no pharmacy or apothecary was willing to dispense it.This is strange.Xu Shaolin knew that every clinic and pharmacy had a professional d...A young boy beckoned Xu Shaolin to sit down and then ran off to make a phone call.

In a short while, a middle-aged man with a sharp face and two small whiskers arrived, carrying a bundle.

"I heard that you're looking to buy wild ginseng"

As soon as the middle-aged man entered the room, he fixed his gaze on Xu Shaolin.

The traditional Chinese medicine store was already less busy than Western pharmacies and hospitals, and at this time of day, there was only Xu Shaolin alone. Of course, it was easy to recognize him.

"Yes, bring them out as soon as possible. I want all of them, no matter how many. Price is no object."

Xu Shaolin got straight to the point, making the middle-aged man roll his eyes.

No matter how much, it's enough.

Wild ginseng is not a large radish. In places like Haiping, having even one wild ginseng root is quite remarkable.

However, with customers present, the middle-aged man dared not show it.

"Yes, yes, yes! I happen to have a superior wild ginseng here, over two hundred years old. Please, take a look!"

The middle-aged man said as he opened the burden on his back, inside was a box more delicate than the one the young man held.

After opening the box lid, the things inside were wrapped in a layer of bright red satin.

Peeling back the layer of silk, a ginseng with a humanoid shape and well-developed roots appeared before Xu Shaolin.

"Look at my collection! It has all five elements, and the age is just right. Whether you use it or collect it, it's top-notch!"

The middle-aged man acted just like that young guy, eagerly promoting the ginseng he had in his hands.

But before he could finish his sentence, Xu Shaolin couldn't bear to listen any longer.

"Stop!"

"Your buddy, is he your student As the teacher goes, so go the students!"

Xu Shaolin crossed his arms and sneered.

"How do you know!"

The middle-aged man's face was full of surprise.

"My name is Qian Cang, nicknamed "Er," because I have a keen eye for distinguishing herbs. My peers in the trade call me "Golden Eye Qian Er."

"This is my nephew, Qian Xiaofei. He learned a few things from me, so he's considered my apprentice. Sir, you have truly discerning eyes!"

Qian Er, thinking that Xu Shaolin had been subdued by what he had taken out, boasted smugly.

"Oh, come on! You're kidding, right"

You two, master and disciple, haven't spoken a single word of truth!

Xu Shaolin pointed to the ginseng in the box, which looked excellent.

"This is just something you put together haphazardly. Do you even have real ginseng from the mountains If not, I'm leaving, I don't want to waste my time with you."

When Xu Shaolin finished speaking, even Qian Xiaofei was taken aback.

Because the ginseng in front of him was wild mountain ginseng, Qian Er told him so.

And according to Qian Er's teaching on how to distinguish them, no matter how you look at it, this one in front of you is a genuine wild ginseng with no flaws whatsoever.

Qian Er was even more shocked and dismayed.

"You...what do you mean!"

This ginseng is indeed money counterfeit from him.

He has an amazing eye for identifying medicinal herbs. Having seen so many over the years, he naturally became a master counterfeiter.

And this ginseng root is his masterpiece.

Even with his sharp eyesight, he couldn't see any clues.

Even his disciples, like Qian Xiaofei, whom he personally taught, believed in it wholeheartedly.

How did Xu Shaolin see that

"Hmph, although this mountain ginseng appears to be a single piece, inside it's full of traces of connection. Do you want me to help you cut it open and verify each one"

Xu Shao Lin let out a cold snort, inwardly admiring him as well.

This person's ginseng counterfeiting skills are unparalleled.

Unless Xu Shaolin possessed the ability of clairvoyance, he wouldn't have been able to detect any clues until after swallowing it.

And others who are not as familiar with medicinal properties as Xu Shaolin and do not possess internal energy, would be unable to tell the difference between it and wild ginseng at all.

After all, when Qian Er forged money, he chose ginseng that was both medicinal and of good vintage.

"No, no! I was also tricked into buying the wrong ginseng. I wanted to test it out on my husband first, but I didn't expect his eyesight to be so sharp!"

"The real wild ginseng is here."

After being discovered, Qian Erlian's excuses were the same as Qian Xiaofei's.

Because he was afraid of Xu Shaolin investigating the matter of the fake mountain ginseng, Qian Er didn't dare to be negligent this time and directly took out the real wild mountain ginseng.

The real ginseng is hidden between the layers of the fake ginseng box.

The layers opened, and a crooked ginseng root appeared before Xu Shaolin.

Most people can hardly imagine that such an unassuming thing could be the incredibly expensive wild ginseng.

"Well, not bad. It's almost a hundred and twenty years old, just a little small in size."

As for the image of this wild ginseng, Xu Shaolin didn't have much surprise.

After all, the best wild ginseng is already in the hands of bigwigs.

Only those "foodies" with poor quality and no collectible value can be obtained by people like Qian Er.

As the name suggests, it refers to things that are only valuable when consumed.

"Sir, this one weighs a full sixty-seven grams. For a foodie like me, that's quite a bit!"

Qian Er was frowning.

This unidentified old man not only has sharp eyes but also a big mouth.

As the saying goes, seven taels is average, eight taels is precious.

Eight taels of wild ginseng processed into dried ginseng, it only weighs about eighty grams.

That's all just stuff from legends. Even if it exists in reality, it's all in the hands of big shots. There's no way it would ever be theirs.

"Well, I'll take this. How much is it"

"It's best to be honest. If you play more tricks, we'll settle both old and new accounts together!"

"I've only just arrived and I've already discovered so many shady dealings. I believe that if the authorities investigate, you two uncle and nephew will be spending several years inside."

In addition to urging the transaction, Xu Shaolin also added.

Though he is wealthy, he is not a fool who can be taken advantage of.

"Not dare! Sir has piercing eyes, I absolutely dare not repeat myself! This ginseng, let's calculate it at three thousand yuan per gram."

The two old men were shrewd, clearly much more cunning than Qian Xiaofei.

After being exposed, Qian Er didn't repeatedly try to deceive Xu Shaolin like Qian Xiaofei did.

On the contrary, Lao Qian gave an honest and even lower than expected quote.

The objective, of course, is to complete the transaction and get rid of Xu Shaolin this plague as soon as possible.

Otherwise, simply using ordinary ginseng to impersonate wild ginseng would be enough to charge him with fraud.

After all, the price difference between the two is too huge!

"That's good."

For this price, Xu Shaolin was fairly satisfied.

Three thousand yuan per gram, that is one million five hundred thousand yuan per kilogram, which is ten times that of ordinary ginseng.

But this is quite normal.

Around 2005, during a period of intense ginseng cultivation in Northeast China, the price dropped to below one hundred yuan per kilogram in some areas.

While the price of wild ginseng has been steadily rising.

After all, this thing is really too rare.

Even the 《China Pharmacopoeia》replaced wild ginseng with forest ginseng this year.

That is, Cai Xiaofei wants to fool people by passing off something inferior as superior.

Things were simple from then on. Ginseng was about 67 grams, and Xu Shaolin directly paid 200,000 yuan.

After buying some other supplements again, Xu Shaolin finally left satisfied.

But just as he had walked only a short distance, Xu Shaolin suddenly thought of something and turned back.s eyes beside him noticeably changed.Most people wouldn't notice this change, but father and son were connected. Li Shouting immediately sensed something was amiss."Alright, go ahead. I need to calm d...
