Era: Started from raising livestock in the mountains

Chapter 14 How much did the ginseng sell for?

"Don't worry, you won't have the heart to let it go when the time comes." Lin Heng smiled and led the way with the dog in front.

The lower city is far away, so we really need to work harder.

The three of us walked more than 20 kilometers in one breath and climbed over a dozen mountains.

"Finally we've reached the main road."

Lin Heng sighed and sat down on a stone on the roadside, looking at the rushing river outside the road and breathing heavily.

Xiongba also climbed down and stuck out his tongue, he was very tired.

"Is this Shuangqiao Town?" Chen Xiulan asked curiously, looking at the red brick houses in the distance. This was her first time in the city.

"Yes, we will reach the city after walking another seven or eight kilometers."

Lin Heng nodded. The small road he took was much faster than the main road and could save nearly twenty kilometers. However, the road was not easy to walk and he had to cross mountains and ridges.

"The land in the city is flat and endless as far as the eye can see."

Father Lin said with envy, he had heard about it before, but now he understood what it meant to take a glance at Pingchuan.

"Going northeast from here is the Guanzhong Plain. That's really flat."

Lin Heng said with a smile that the terrain in the urban area of ​​Taibai City still has quite a lot of ups and downs, but it’s just because you see so many mountains that it feels flat.

"Here, wipe your sweat!" Chen Xiulan handed Lin Heng a handkerchief.

Lin Heng didn't answer, but stretched his head over. Xiulan hesitated for a moment, then stretched out her hand to wipe Lin Heng's sweat carefully.

"Eat some dry food and let's keep walking."

Father Lin glanced at Lin Heng, took out the prepared steamed buns and handed them to Lin Heng and Xiulan.

Lin Heng tore off a small piece and handed it to Xiong Ba: "Eat it quickly."

"Ouch!"

Xiongba was already hungry and wolfed down the food.

Father Lin glared at Lin Heng. Just as he was about to speak, Lin Heng spoke first: "How about we pay fifty cents for a ride? There are often donkey carts going to the city around here."

"If you don't sit down, you've walked 20 kilometers. Do you still care about these eight or nine kilometers?" Father Lin refused ruthlessly.

"Let's walk, we won't be tired." Xiulan also shook her head.

Lin Heng was speechless, knowing that they were worried about money.

He couldn't say anything, so he rested for a while and continued walking. He walked for more than two hours before finally reaching the city. By this time, the sun was already setting in the west.

Lin's father looked at the red bricks and white walls and the crowded streets with a bit of stage fright. Xiulan was the same. It was her first time in the city.

Especially when I see those cars and the women wearing colorful clothes, bat sleeves, jeans, and lace, they are all styles that are not found in rural areas.

There are also beauties wearing short skirts and short sleeves, exposing their snow-white arms and calves, which is in sharp contrast to the conservative and backward mountain villages.

Father Lin didn't even dare to look at anyone, he lowered his head and looked at the ground.

Xiulan clutched the corners of her clothes with both hands and felt a little frightened. She felt that her clothes were much different from those of people in the city. From time to time, people would look at her curiously, which made her very uncomfortable.

Lin Heng took her hand and held it in his palm: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

He was like this when he first came to the city. He was afraid of being looked down upon and looked at strangely, so he naturally understood his wife's psychology.

Xiulan's palms were sweaty. She was pulled by Lin Heng and quickly leaned against him. Only then did she feel safe.

Now Lin Heng holds his head high and shows no signs of cowardice. He was very familiar with this place, because he had worked here for several years in his previous life, and it was here that he lost 50,000 yuan when starting a company.

Not long after, Lin Heng brought his wife and father to the state-owned acquisition store here.

"We're here to sell goods. Can you contact your supervisor Jin Fuqiang? I have more precious goods, and they are what he needs."

Lin Heng asked as he looked at the employee who came up.

"Okay, wait a minute." The female employee glanced at Lin Heng, turned around and went in.

Not long after, a middle-aged man in his thirties with a small belly walked over, looked at the three of them, and finally stopped at Lin Heng: "What kind of goods? How do you know I need it? Who are you?"

"My name is Lin Heng. Manager Jin, do you want to watch here?" Lin Heng smiled.

Jin Fuqiang glanced at Lin Heng. He was obviously dressed as a farmer, but he was so confident, as if he was the boss of a big company.

And even the dog he was holding was extraordinary.

"this way please."

Jin Fuqiang smiled and stretched out his hand.

When he got to the side, Lin Heng took the ginseng over, peeled off the moss and placed it in front of Jin Fuqiang.

"Director Jin, how about the 15-year-old ginseng?" Lin Heng asked with a smile.

"Good quality, absolutely good stuff!" Jin Fuqiang was extremely happy. This was indeed what he was looking for, 89-year-old ginseng.

There are very few ginseng in Taibai Mountain, and ginseng that is more than ten years old is even rarer. I haven't been able to harvest one for several years.

And he wanted to buy it to give to a big leader to replenish his energy. He was in a hurry. The news was only spread in the past month, but he didn't expect to get it so quickly.

"How about nine hundred yuan?" Jin Fuqiang looked up at Lin Heng and took a cigarette for him.

Lin Heng knew that he needed this thing, so he must know that it was useful. He was afraid that Lin Heng would raise the price.

"The normal price is eight hundred yuan. I'm not doing it to make money, but to make friends." Lin Heng said casually.

After being reborn, he knew that Jin Fuqiang was a man who repaid his kindness and was worth making friends with. Moreover, his future development was good and it would be helpful for him to engage in breeding.

Father Lin became a little anxious when he heard this. How could you sell things like this and even bargain at a lower price? His daughter-in-law Chen Xiulan was also a little anxious.

"Haha, then I'll make friends with you. As for the price, I say nine hundred is nine hundred, no need to bargain."

Jin Fuqiang shook his head and asked someone to come over to deal with the ginseng, and by the way, all the various goods they took down were dealt with.

Jin Fuqiang asked Lin Heng and the other two to sit down and drink tea and chat. It was obvious that he wanted to know more about Lin Heng.

After a conversation, Jin Fuqiang's eyes changed when he looked at Lin Heng, and he couldn't help asking: "Are you really just a farmer?"

"Don't get me wrong, I just don't believe that you have such knowledge from a farmer family." After saying that, Jin Fuqiang quickly added another sentence.

Some of the things he said and the views raised by Lin Heng were too sharp, and they didn't seem like the knowledge a farmer should have at all.

Lin Heng spread his hands and smiled: "Yes, but I have read books for a few years, and what I said was all from books. Recently, I am preparing to engage in breeding and build orchards, so I know more."

He was not surprised at Jin Fuqiang's shock, and the answers he gave were all from later generations, which naturally shocked him.

And he did it on purpose, just to leave a deep impression.

"This is a good thing. Now that it is open, the country will support it. If you need it, you can find me." Jin Fuqiang poured another cup of tea for Lin Heng.

He felt that Lin Heng could have such cognition and knowledge, and his future would definitely not be ordinary, and he was worth making friends with.

After chatting for a while, his subordinates counted Lin Heng's goods and reported the list.

"A total of 921 yuan, take a look." Jin Fuqiang showed the list to Lin Heng.

After no problem, he took the money directly from the drawer and handed it to Lin Heng.

Lin Heng handed the money to his father Lin Xuan and Xiulan, and his father Lin did not take it and said: "You take it first."

He was shocked by Lin Heng. His son could actually talk to a leader. Is this his true level?

For the first time, he deeply felt the role of reading. The views that Lin Heng said were all things he had never heard of.

Lin Heng put the money into the pocket sewn in his underwear, and then said: "Manager Jin, we are leaving now, goodbye."

"Let's have a meal before leaving, I will be off work soon." Manager Jin wanted to continue chatting with Lin Heng, he felt that Lin Heng was really a learned man.

"No, wait for a chance later, we have to go back to Huangtan Town in the afternoon, and there is not enough time." Lin Heng said with a smile.

"Well, take your time, and be sure to let me do my best to be a good host when you come down next time." Seeing this, Jin Fuqiang had to send Lin Heng away reluctantly.
