Chapter 59 Medicinal Materials
Song Changming saw that the other party did not bother to bother, so he did not bother to pay more attention, and directly took a photo of all the medicinal materials he wanted in one go, in full amount, totaling more than three hundred silver coins.
This is not a small amount, especially in the eyes of ordinary people, Song Changming is simply spending money like water.
"In this way, there is no need to worry about the decoctions in the next two years."
Thinking of this, Song Changming felt that it was a lot easier to worry about. The money was well spent, and he didn't feel bad at all.
Since his order was a big one, he only needed to give his address to the caravan man, and someone would help him deliver it to his door, without him having to carry the big box back.
After settling the matter of medicinal materials, Song Changming continued shopping alone.
During this delay, Lu Gang had already separated from him and went to watch other excitement.
Suddenly, Song Changming noticed a table of bidding for Ganoderma lucidum and Ganoderma lucidum.
The year and base price are indicated on it, and the lowest ones are all over 40 years old.
Many people gathered here to look at this fine and precious medicinal material.
"It is said that many mountain ranges in the north are rich in ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum, and now it turns out that it is true."
“Good guy, there’s even century-old wild ginseng!”
Song Changming listened to the exclamations of the onlookers, and also noticed the large ginseng, which was marked as a hundred years old and had been auctioned for an astonishingly high price of one thousand silver.
His physical training also required the medicinal power of this kind of wild ginseng. He was curious about how powerful a 100-year-old wild ginseng could be for him if used for his physical training.
It's a pity that his remaining money is no longer enough to participate in the bidding for this century-old wild ginseng, so he can only take a look.
"Everyone, there is only one wild ginseng in this hundred years, don't wait until it's overdue!" A leader of the caravan shouted, attracting many people to come.
Those with financial resources among them all had their eyes set on the rare wild ginseng, but the high price of a thousand silver dollars had already put some of them away.
"Eleven hundred silver!"
"One thousand two hundred silver!"
"."
Song Changming looked at the increasingly outrageous bids for century-old wild ginseng, and suddenly thought that when Wang Xianwen deceived him, he had used the century-old wild ginseng as an excuse to move him.
Now that I think about it, I just find it funny.
If an Ordinary Orion accidentally obtains a rare medicinal material of this level, it would be like smoke rising from the grave. I'm afraid the news would have spread long ago, and it would be his turn to find it.
But he couldn't blame him for this. Centennial ginseng was rare in the entire southern states. He had never known the true market price of this century-old ginseng. He only knew that it was probably very precious, but he didn't expect it to be so precious.
As the bidding became more and more outrageous, the leader of the caravan was already laughing.
In fact, although a hundred-year-old wild ginseng is also precious in the north, one thousand silver dollars is almost the ceiling price on the market, and any price above that is considered a premium.
Song Changming didn't have that much money, so he just watched the excitement, and then spent nearly three hundred silver to buy three forty-year-old wild ginseng plants, each worth fifty-five silver.
There was also a 60-year-old wild ginseng, which he got for 130 silver.
In the past, he mostly used 20-year-old wild ginseng. Now that he has the opportunity, he can't feel the 100-year-old wild ginseng, but he can look at the medicinal power of other older wild ginseng as a reference.
Especially this sixty-year-old plant, is it worth the 130 silver?
In this way, he spent a total of almost 600 silver on medicinal materials for martial arts training today.
Most of my savings were gone in a matter of seconds.
I have to say that the journey to martial arts training is indeed, as most martial artists say, a road paved with money.
Without money, martial arts training will most likely be in vain. He took the wild ginseng and left the medicinal materials bidding area. When he found Lu Gang, he saw that he already had many items in his hands.
"My wife has been thinking about the treasure silk satin from Hengyang County for a long time. I want to go back today to make her happy. And this, the famous Qinghe Jade from Taiqing County. Do you know how much this small piece costs?"
When Lu Gang saw Song Changming, he counted all the treasures he had gained today, and finally asked Song Changming what he had bought.
"They are all medicinal materials for martial arts training." Song Changming simply said that he bought them.
Apart from medicinal materials, he didn't buy anything else.
"Changming, there are a lot of good things here, don't just focus on buying medicinal materials." Lu Gang shook his head.
Song Changming looked at the high-grade silk and satin in Lu Gang's hand, nodded and said, "We can indeed buy some good clothes for the two elders in the family."
He has not yet married, and all he can think about is his parents and his third sister who is already married.
"By the way, there are some secret martial arts records being sold there. Is this thing authentic?" Song Changming pointed to the square table not far away.
Booklets were displayed one after another, each containing a set of martial arts. Song Changming was extremely moved when he read them.
Lu Gang didn't take it seriously when he saw it, shook his head and chuckled: "Chang Ming, those martial arts secrets of unknown origin are of little use, especially those sold on the market, most of which are fake.
Perhaps the credibility of what the caravan is selling is higher, but even so, in a transcript like this, God knows if there are excerpts or omissions.
Once you practice according to the instructions and go wrong, you will not only waste time and energy, but also hurt your body. It is completely worth the loss.
More importantly, even if these secret martial arts records are true and intact, without the guidance of a master, it would be extremely difficult to practice the martial arts according to the secret records alone.
Maybe you won't be able to really get started with this skill in a few years. If you have this skill, it's better to go to a martial arts school in the city for further training. It's nothing more than paying more tuition, but it is definitely useful and reliable. "
After hearing this, Song Changming had an idea.
To put it simply, these second-hand martial arts secrets are not authentic and cannot be trusted.
If you follow this practice, the consequences will be endless. Not only will you lose a little money, but you may also damage your body.
Song Changming thought for a while, gave up the idea, and stopped thinking about the pile of martial arts secrets on the table.
It's not like he has no martial arts to practice right now, so there's no need to waste time on these unreliable martial arts secrets.
After buying the items he wanted to buy, Song Changming left the treasure bidding meeting early.
In fact, during this treasure competition, he saw many treasures that made his heart beat.
However, the bids were too high, just like the century-old ginseng. The remaining money in his hand was not enough, so he finally had no choice but to give up.
Compared with the past, he has now completely established a foothold in the county and has achieved certain achievements and status.
This is already very good. At least Song's father and mother are very satisfied that Song Changming can be where he is today.
After becoming the patrol chief of Shangcheng District, the salary he received could also meet his most basic needs for physical training and martial arts.
If we can meet the huge task of destroying the Jiuqu Society before, we may be able to make a lot of extra money.
But that's pretty much the limit.
If we look at the entire Donglai County, he, the patrol chief of the city, is just an insignificant role.
No matter what you see or hear, the resources available are quite limited.
“I still don’t have enough money.”
