Chapter 59: Want to make a fortune?
"This... this, is this a box of tin cans?" Even the eloquent Luo Min was stuttering as he looked at the full box of tin cans.
"Manager Luo has a good eye." Xiao Ping smiled and said: "You can take a closer look and then make an offer."
With Xiao Ping's consent, Luo Min picked up several iron skin gourds and examined them carefully, his surprised expression becoming more and more apparent. Luo Min had also worked in this line for over thirty years, and had seen countless precious medicinal materials, but he had never seen iron skin gourds of such good quality and size before.
Luomin felt more and more shocked as he looked at it. With his over 30 years of experience, these were undoubtedly authentic iron skin ginseng. And the quality was so high that they must have been made from wild iron skin ginseng. But now wild iron skin ginseng is extremely rare, to make such a large box of iron skin ginseng, it would take hundreds of kilograms of fresh iron skin ginseng, where did Xiao Ping get so much?
However, Luo Min soon threw this question to the back of his mind. For him, the most important thing now was how to sell this batch of maple syrup. As for what channels Xiao Ping had to purchase goods, Luo Min knew that even if he asked, the other party would not say anything. Since so, it's better not to ask, lest it damage the relationship between the two parties which was still pretty good.
Luó Mǐn quickly made a decision and looked at Xiao Ping with expectation, asking: "Mr. Xiao, how do you plan to sell these iron buckets?"
Xiao Ping had already checked the price of Tiepi Fangdou sold by Tongrentang, and found that the most expensive one was sold at 98 yuan per gram. He thought his own Tiepi Fangdou was much better than what was being sold here, and after a moment's thought, said: "120 yuan per gram, no bargaining!"
Luó Mǐn secretly calculated in her heart, with such good quality iron skin ginseng, retailing at 140 to 150 yuan per gram is no problem, and buying it back at 120 yuan would not be a loss. More importantly, for an old shop like Tongrentang, the brand name is very important. Some of the high-quality medicinal materials sold in the store are beneficial to establishing the store's brand effect. So Luó Mǐn only considered it for a short time and quickly nodded: "No problem, but this batch of iron skin ginseng will be fully purchased by our store!"
Luomin's words moved Xiao Ping, who shook his head bluntly: "I can't sell all of it to you, I still want to keep some for gifts. How about this, sell 50 kilograms and trouble you to help me pack the rest in a few boxes, okay?"
Luomin's intention was to make Tongrentang the only pharmacy on the market that sells this batch of iron skin ginseng, and Xiao Ping taking it away to give to someone else would not have any impact on him. Luomin naturally wouldn't bother to argue with Xiao Ping over such a thing, so he immediately agreed.
Soon, a store employee came to select and weigh them. These two procedures were essential in purchasing medicinal materials. However, Luo Min soon discovered that only weighing was necessary, as the quality of these iron skin ginseng was extremely good, and there was nothing to pick from. Soon, 50 kilograms of iron skin ginseng were weighed out, and according to their agreement, the value of these medicinal materials was exactly 3 million yuan.
He took over the cash check handed over by the pharmacy finance, and Xiao Ping laughed so hard that his mouth couldn't be closed. This is the largest single income for Xiao Ping so far, almost equal to the total income of the farm in the previous few months. No wonder he was so happy. Xiao Ping carefully kept the check and thought secretly: "First buy a car, it will be more convenient to run around in the future."
When Xiao Ping was settling the bill, Luo Min couldn't help but gaze longingly at the remaining twenty or so iron-plated maple drums. Seeing this, Xiao Ping also couldn't help but feel a little amused and said to him: "Manager Luo, I still have another batch of iron-plated maple drums for sale around New Year's, with similar quantity and quality as these, you can come find me then."
"That's settled then!" Xiao Ping's words made Luo Min's eyes light up, and he quickly finalized the matter with Xiao Ping.
Xiao Ping smiled and nodded, taking the check and the box with iron-plated tin cans out of Tongrentang. He went to the bank immediately to cash the check, and seeing a string of numbers added to his account, Xiao Ping's mood was naturally very good. As soon as Xiao Ping left the bank, he received a call from Zhang Yuxin.
Although Zhang Yuxin's attitude towards Xiao Ping had improved a lot, it was absolutely not close. As soon as Xiao Ping answered the phone, he heard her say in a formal tone: "I'm Zhang Yuxin. I have something to ask you, do you want to make a lot of money?"
As soon as he heard this, Xiao Ping immediately regained his energy and hastily replied: "Of course I want to!"
Zhang Yuxin said: "This matter is inconvenient to say over the phone, you hurry to the provincial city as soon as possible, we will talk face to face."
"What's so mysterious?" Xiao Ping felt a little curious in his heart, but immediately said: "I'm already in the provincial city now."
"Where are you?"
"The entrance of China Construction Bank on Hua Xing Road."
"Wait for me, I'll be there in ten minutes." Zhang Yuxin reminded him before hanging up the phone.
Ten minutes hadn't passed when Zhang Yuxin's Maserati stopped in front of Xiao Ping. Xiao Ping got into the car with familiarity, and sped away under the envious gaze of the bank security guard.
Xiao Ping smiled and said to Zhang Yu Xin, who was driving: "I didn't expect you still had me in mind, I'm really touched! Tell me, what's the good way to make money?"
"Can... can you cure infertility?" Zhang Yuxin asked hesitantly.
"Ah?!" Xiao Ping was startled by Zhang Yuxin's question and subconsciously glanced at her flat stomach a few times.
Feeling Xiao Ping's gaze, Zhang Yuxin blushed and said, "It wasn't me!"
"Right, you have Xiaomeng now, it's definitely not you." Xiao Ping also came back to his senses and nodded in agreement.
Zhang Yuxin's face looked a bit better, and Xiao Ping continued, "If it's not your problem, then it must be your boyfriend's problem. Don't worry, this is just a small issue, I, Dr. Xiao, will cure the disease and guarantee that you'll have your own baby! However, you must treat Momo well, after all, she's your own flesh and blood..."
Xiao Ping got more and more excited, completely unaware of Zhang Yuxin's worsening expression. Finally, she couldn't help but shout: "Enough! This has nothing to do with me, it's just one of my old classmates who wants a child!"
"It was like that all along, why didn't you say so earlier?" Xiao Ping couldn't help but complain: "You made me worry for nothing about you and Momo!"
"Calm down, calm down!" Zhang Yuxin took a few deep breaths, reminding herself in her heart not to argue with Xiao Ping.
Zhang Yuxin didn't notice that such an action made her full chest heave up and down, making it look even more prominent. Xiao Ping next to her stared with wide eyes, involuntarily muttering in his heart: "Tsk tsk... is this C or D? Ah, it's hard to make a correct judgment without touching it personally!"
Just as Xiao Ping was thinking wildly, Zhang Yuxin also calmed down and said: "This matter has nothing to do with me, I'm just helping a friend!"
As soon as Zhang Yuxin opened her mouth, Xiao Ping shifted his gaze and said nonchalantly, "Actually, whether this matter has anything to do with you or not is irrelevant. No matter who has a problem, I have the confidence to cure him!"
