"Mister Zhou, I'll give you one million for each of these five century-old herbs. That way you can make a good profit!"
Chen Ping followed Zhou Zhiqian and said.
"What? One million yuan per plant?" Zhou Zhiqian's voice rose immediately. "You're treating my medicinal herbs as inferior goods? You don't look like someone who buys medicinal herbs, you look more like someone here to cause trouble. You don't even look and just call my herbs inferior?!"
"I don't need to see, whether it's low-grade or not, you know better than me. In business, honesty and integrity are essential for long-term success. One million per plant, not a penny more!"
Chen Ping looked at Zhou Zhiqian without any fear!
Zhou Zhiqian fell silent, staring fixedly at Chen Ping with a rather unpleasant expression.
"Old Zhou, with my brother, you don't even need to look. He can just tell the quality of the herbs. Otherwise, let me take a look and have a feel for my brother!"
He Zhiqiang saw that Zhou Zhiqian was a little angry, so he hurriedly said conciliatory words!
Zhou Zhiqian waved his hand: "No need, today I've learned a lesson. True heroes emerge from youth, I'll sell it to you for one million per plant!"
Zhou Zhiqian did not let He Zhjiang see it. With He Zhjiang's eyesight, he would naturally be able to tell the quality of the medicinal herbs at a glance.
Chen Ping didn't hesitate and directly transferred money to Zhou Zhiqian, which made Zhou Zhiqian start to look at Chen Ping with admiration!
“I still have some century-old herbs here. I'll have someone bring them up!”
After Zhou Zhiqian finished speaking, he waved his hand, and a servant went to fetch the medicinal herbs.
A few people were drinking tea and waiting in the backyard.
"Mr. He, I heard that someone in Hongcheng has been selling a kind of pill recently. Do you know about it?"
Sipping tea, Zhou Zhiqian chatted idly with He Zhigang.
"Pills?" He Zhigang shook his head. "I don't know!"
"This kind of pill can strengthen the body, prolong life, and I have personally taken one, and the effect is indeed good. However, I sent my subordinates to study it carefully for a long time, but they couldn't analyze the pill's ingredients and couldn't replicate it!"
Zhou Zhiqian said helplessly.

"Are there such masters still in Hongcheng?" He Zhigang seemed quite surprised!
If it's said that generics can't be made, that's possible, but to be unable to analyze the ingredients is simply unbelievable!
"I'm planning to go to Hongcheng in a while and meet this expert. If I could recruit him for my own use, it would be even better!"
Zhou Zhiqian's eyes flickered with anticipation. If he could get this person on his side, it would be a constant source of wealth!
Seeing Zhou Zhiqian like that, Chen Ping smiled slightly, and Lin Tianhu also glanced at Chen Ping, smiling but not speaking!
This great person is right before their eyes, but they don't know it!
Just then, a servant rushed in and whispered something in Zhou Zhiqian's ear. Zhou Zhiqian's face lit up with excitement instantly.
"Alright, you can go now!" Zhou Zhiqian waved his hand, dismissing his subordinate. Then, he turned to Chen Ping and He Zhigang with a slightly apologetic expression: "Sorry about that, I have something urgent to attend to. Let's talk about the medicinal herbs this afternoon. I promise to save some for you!"
Seeing Zhou Zhiqian say this, Chen Ping and the others couldn't stay any longer, so they got up to say goodbye!
"As for Zhou Zhiqian, what could possibly be so urgent that he would turn down such a lucrative business opportunity?"
Walking out of Tongrentang, He Zhigang said with a puzzled expression.
Just as he finished speaking, He Zhigang's phone suddenly rang with a message!
When He Zhigang finished reading, he exclaimed in surprise: "An auction will feature a millennium snow lotus! It's been many years since a snow lotus has appeared in Yun Cheng. This time, it's even a millennium snow lotus!"
"An auction?" Chen Ping was full of bewilderment!
After He Zhiling's explanation, Chen Ping realized that the auction was mainly for medicinal herbs. At first, it was alright, as there were often some rare medicinal herbs being auctioned. However, later on, fake goods frequently appeared at the auctions, and the number of valuable medicinal herbs also decreased significantly. As a result, fewer people attended the auctions, and He Zhiling stopped paying attention to them.
