The old lady's eyes lit up when she heard about meat, and then she said excitedly: "Girl, do you have any meat to trade for?"
Seeing the old lady's appearance at this moment, I knew that the matter was almost done, so she said: "Grandma, I have a pound of pork belly here. I can give this meat to you directly without changing it."
The old lady frowned after hearing this. She was not an ignorant old lady. She knew that there was no free lunch in the world, so she did not agree immediately.
"Girl, please tell me what your purpose is."
It seems that this is a smart old lady, and she has not been blinded by interests at all. However, it is easier to deal with such smart people, because there is no need to speak in full, just a few casual words, both parties will understand what she means.
"Grandma, my dad wanted to ask Secretary Chen for something, but he couldn't find a way. Yesterday, I accidentally learned that Secretary Chen's mother was not in good health, so I wanted to find out what illness she had."
The old lady breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. Everyone in the compound knew about Secretary Chen's mother, so it didn't matter if she told the little girl.
"Secretary Chen's mother is not actually sick. She took a knife for Secretary Chen in the early years and she bled excessively, causing anemia and qi deficiency, so she looks like she is seriously ill."
"You haven't made up for it after all these years?"
"It's not so easy for a woman to make up for the excessive blood loss. What's more, Secretary Chen's mother was already over 60 years old when she was injured. It's even harder to make up for it."
After getting the news he wanted from the old lady, he took out a pound of pork belly wrapped in oil paper from his bag and handed it to the old lady.
The old lady took the oil paper bag and opened it and took a look. When she saw that there was a fat piece of pork belly wrapped in the oil paper, her eyes narrowed with laughter.
She quickly rewrapped the oil paper and put it into the basket, and then said, "Secretary Chen has been looking for century-old ginseng these years." After saying this, she left without looking back.
Ha... This old lady is really interesting. If she wasn't satisfied with the meat I just gave her, she wouldn't say anything about it, right?
After coming out of the gate of the compound, he walked towards where Secretary Chen worked. However, he was stopped by the guard as soon as he reached the door of the building.
Tsk, it looks like I have to wait at the door again.
At eleven o'clock at noon, I saw Secretary Chen pushing a Phoenix bicycle towards the door, so he immediately stepped forward and whispered: "I have a hundred-year-old ginseng."
After hearing this, Secretary Chen, who was pushing the bicycle, clenched the handlebars of the bicycle with both hands excitedly. After a few seconds, he said, "Follow me."
After following Secretary Chen for five or six minutes, we came to a deserted alley. After parking the car, Secretary Chen said, "How do you know I need century-old ginseng?"
"This is not a secret at all. You can find out if you ask anyone around the compound."
Secretary Chen felt his throat was choked when he heard this. This little girl named Lu Xiaoxiao was right. It was no secret that he needed century-old ginseng.
"You must be Lu Xiaoxiao, one of the parties involved in the reported incident."
"It's hard for Secretary Chen to still remember this insignificant little person like me."
"Do you really have century-old ginseng in your hand?"
"Yes, and the year is just a little more."
"Then do you have ginseng with you now?"
"Of course I brought it with me, otherwise how could I dare to come to Secretary Chen."
"Since you brought the ginseng with you, then go with me to someone to have it authenticated. If the ginseng is really over a hundred years old, we can talk about the next thing."
"good."
