Rebirth 1989: My Unlucky Career

On the way back, Sun Xiaoyu admired Zhao Zhuo and said:

"You know, this is the least money I have spent on charity this time, but it is also the one with the best results!"

Speaking of which, the total cost this time was just the cost of building materials for the school and school supplies and other supplies. There was not much money in total.

What they got in exchange was the wonderful and happy life of the entire Huaping Village and the fact that every child was able to go to school.

It can be said that Zhao Zhuo and Sun Xiaoyu's trip to Huaping Village in the past few days has profoundly changed the future of the entire village.

A village that has escaped poverty and is gradually getting better and better fills the hearts of Zhao Zhuo and Sun Xiaoyu with a sense of pride.

Zhao Zhuo smiled slightly:

"Even strictly speaking, we didn't spend any money, but we actually made money."

What Zhao Zhuo was talking about was naturally about Sanqi's business.

The money earned from such a high price difference is far beyond what can be compared with the money spent on construction materials and supplies.

Sun Xiaoyu naturally understood what Zhao Zhuo was referring to, but when he heard the word "we", Sun Xiaoyu couldn't help but be stunned:

"You mean...us?"

Zhao Zhuo nodded:

"That's right, we went together to Huaping Village this time, or rather, you took me there.

So I discovered business opportunities from it, and the money I earned was naturally shared equally between the two of us."

Seeing Zhao Zhuo taking it for granted, Sun Xiaoyu smiled:

"Actually, you discovered Sanqi's business by yourself. Even if you don't share it with me, I won't say anything."

Although this charity event was indeed proposed by Sun Xiaoyu, Sanqi's business opportunities depended entirely on Zhao Zhuo, so Sun Xiaoyu felt that he deserved it.

But after hearing this, Zhao Zhuo shook his head immediately:

"No, no, no, no matter how much money we make from this business, it will be half for each of us.

This is my principle for treating friends. If you don’t accept it, then you don’t treat me as a friend.”

Hearing Zhao Zhuo's joking statement, Sun Xiaoyu nodded helplessly, her heart filled with joy.

This joy naturally does not come from making money, but from precious friendship.

After all, the value of these sacks of Panax notoginseng is nothing to either Zhao Zhuo or Sun Xiaoyu.

Therefore, the two of them talked about going back and forth, but neither of them really took these things seriously. At most, they thought they were just making extra money.

Knowing that they were on their way back, not far from Huaping Village, they saw Panax notoginseng drying on the roadside...

Maybe it's because the climate and soil in the area where Huaping Village is located are very suitable for growing Panax notoginseng, so every village here has people planting it.

Zhao Zhuo was driving on the road and saw the three days after drying on the roadside. He looked at each other and Sun Xiaoyu understood each other's meaning without saying a word.

Zhao Zhuo parked the car on the side of the road and walked over as if by accident.

"Brother, what are you drying? Is it Chinese medicine?"

Zhao Zhuo pretended not to recognize Sanqi, knelt down and looked at it, and then asked.

When he heard Zhao Zhuo's words, the middle-aged man who was drying his panax notoginseng powder nodded:

"That's right, Chinese medicinal material, Panax notoginseng."

Hearing this, Zhao Zhuo showed an expression of sudden realization:

"Oh, so this is Panax notoginseng! I heard that this thing has many benefits. Grinding it into powder and soaking it in water is good for your health!"

Taking this opportunity, Zhao Zhuo carefully observed the quality of the Panax notoginseng powder being dried.

Although it is not as good as the quality and size of Huaping Village, it is still pretty good. There are about twelve or three heads, which is already a very good product.

And hearing Zhao Zhuo's praise for Sanqi, the middle-aged man's mind suddenly became alive.

He smiled, nodded and extended his thumb to Zhao Zhuo:

"I didn't expect you to be really knowledgeable! This Panax notoginseng is a good thing, it can cure all kinds of diseases!

Just like if you have a cold and fever, or have an upset stomach, or have a headache or brain fever, you just need to mix some Panax notoginseng powder and drink it, and you are guaranteed to be cured by the medicine!"

In order to promote his Panax notoginseng, the middle-aged man can be said to do everything possible, even to cure all diseases.

When he heard this, Zhao Zhuo suppressed a smile and shook his head:

"What you're saying is too ridiculous. It can cure all diseases. Why don't you say that you can live forever after eating it?"

With that said, Zhao Zhuo took advantage of the situation and left.

Hearing this, the middle-aged man suddenly felt embarrassed.

Thinking back, he was indeed bragging a bit too much. The middle-aged man quickly said:

"Don't mention it, although it is definitely a bit exaggerated to say it can cure all diseases, but this Panax notoginseng is a serious good thing. It can promote blood circulation and replenish Qi, and the effect is very significant!

It's fate that we met. If you are interested, I will sell you some at a cheaper price."

Hearing this, Zhao Zhuo took advantage of the situation and asked:

"In that case, how much are you going to offer?"

The middle-aged man thought about it and wanted to offer a higher price, but he was worried that Zhao Zhuo would give up and leave. However, if the price offered was lower, he would be reluctant to give up.

Seeing the middle-aged man lost in thought, Zhao Zhuo deliberately pretended to be impatient and said:

"Why can't you even come up with a price? If you're so stubborn, then I'm leaving."

With that said, Zhao Zhuo made a gesture to leave.

The middle-aged man became anxious when he saw it. He quickly grabbed Zhao Zhuo and demanded a price:

"Let's do this, five yuan per pound!"

Although there are a lot of Panax notoginseng grown here, there is very little trade, so the middle-aged man reluctantly paid a price that he thought was high.

When he heard the price, Zhao Zhuo nodded noncommittally:

"This is the price..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhao Zhuo suddenly looked up at the middle-aged man as if he thought of something:

"Then if I want all these Sanqi from you, how much can you pay?"

Hearing that Zhao Zhuo wanted them all, the middle-aged man was obviously stunned, and then showed a happy expression.

After thinking about it carefully, the middle-aged man said:

"If you want it all...three yuan a pound!"

Zhao Zhuo did not hesitate at all:

"Okay, load the car, and I'll give you the money!"

The quality of these Panax notoginseng can basically be purchased in Fengtian for sixty or seventy yuan. Not counting shipping costs, you can earn dozens of yuan per kilogram! Even if the shipping costs are removed, you can still make a lot of money per kilogram!

This business can be said to be extremely profitable.

Originally, if Zhao Zhuo showed an eagerness to buy, the middle-aged man would definitely charge a much higher price than he does now, and he would also appear to be indifferent.

But now, after some operations by Zhao Zhuo, the situation has turned into a middle-aged man begging Zhao Zhuo to make an acquisition.

Zhao Zhuo was also very happy. After putting all the Panax notoginseng in sacks and loading them into the car, Zhao Zhuo handed over the money and drove off.
