When the train arrived at Zhangshu, it was already past seven in the evening. Gao Mingcheng made several trips back and forth before finally unloading all the medicinal materials.
Huang Dazhi looked guilty and uneasy. Because his arm was injured, Gao Mingcheng did not let him carry the medicinal materials.
Gao Mingcheng spent 100 yuan to hire him for a trip, but he didn't help at all and even caused trouble for Gao Mingcheng.
Seeing Gao Mingcheng carrying two packages of medicinal materials on one shoulder and one package in one hand, he quickly said: "I can carry one package!"
He only injured one hand, but the other hand was still fine. Gao Mingcheng glanced at him and put the medicinal materials in his hand on his shoulder so that he could hold it easily.
But despite this, Gao Mingcheng still had to carry three bags. He was tall and weak, so he could barely carry two bags.
"Let's go out of the station first." Gao Mingcheng said, leading the two of them outside the train station. The train station now is very simple, unlike the big train stations in the previous life. It takes a long time to get out of the station. road.
After leaving the station, Gao Mingcheng relied on his experience in his previous life and found a cheap hotel near the station. After placing the medicinal materials in the room, he went out to find food.
After eating, I didn't dare to go far and went back to my room.
Gao Mingcheng was not in a good mood. The criminal named Zhao Han said harsh words to him, but when asked again later, he refused to say more.
As for the owner of the black bag, no clues were obtained.
Finally, the policeman comforted him and said that the black bag was now in the hands of their police officers. Even if the owner of the black bag knew about it, he would not come to trouble him.
But - just listen to this. Whether it will cause trouble or not depends on what the owner of the black bag thinks.
If the other party is determined to retaliate and thinks that he is responsible for something bad, then he must come to him.
Now that he was in the light and the enemy was in the dark, it was useless to think too much, so Gao Mingcheng asked Gao Zhuang and Huang Dazhi to go to sleep.
That night, Gao Mingcheng kept alert, but nothing happened.
The next morning, the sun shone in through the window. When the first ray of sunshine shone on the earth, Gao Mingcheng had already woken up.
He didn't meditate while he was away from home, but he was used to getting up early, but the space here was small and he couldn't practice boxing.
After washing, Gao Mingcheng woke up Gao Zhuang and Huang Dazhi.
Today is October 15th, and the Medicine Fair is from October 16th to 18th. It is necessary to come one day in advance because you need to find out more about the drug exchange.
Gao Mingcheng had never participated in it in his previous life, so he didn't know much about it, so he asked the locals about it while having breakfast.
He was good at conversation and picked up some information quickly.
Camphor tree is the capital of medicine. It has been the distribution center of medicinal materials since the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The Pharmaceutical Fair is also very famous. Due to some reasons, it was suspended for sixteen years. It was only resumed in 1980. In 1982, the ten-story Yaodu Hotel was built as the food and accommodation place for the Pharmaceutical Fair.
The medicinal materials trading market covers an area of more than 25,000 square meters, with more than 2,000 stalls and more than 200 exhibition halls. From then on, the medicinal materials trade fair had regular and fixed trading venues and accommodation points.
After hearing this, Gao Mingcheng felt at ease, and then they just took the medicinal materials to Yaodu Hotel.
After a lot of effort, they arrived at Yaodu Hotel before noon.
The three of them stood in front of Yaodu Hotel and looked up.
Gao Zhuang's face was filled with shock, and so was Huang Dazhi's. A bumpkin from a mountain village has never seen a ten-story building before!
Even in their county, there are no such tall buildings!
Only Gao Mingcheng looked calm. He was used to the high-rise buildings of later generations. For him, ten floors were considered ordinary.
"Let's go and check in first." Gao Mingcheng patted Gao Zhuang and Huang Dazhi on the shoulders and motioned for them to go in first.
"Hey." Gao Zhuang responded, but he didn't look confident, and he looked timid at first glance.
The Yaodu Hotel was originally built for the Medicine Fair. Now it is close to the Medicine Fair, and it is filled with medicinal dealers from all over the country, including big businessmen and small traders.
Gao Mingcheng and the others were small traders, and they also lived on the floor where small traders lived.
After moving in, Gao Mingcheng began to wander among various groups of people, actively inquiring about various information, and kept the prices of various medicinal materials in mind.
Sure enough, as he thought, the prices of Ganoderma lucidum and Poria cocos are pretty good. After all, these two medicines are quite famous. In addition, the gardenia produced in their area is also quite popular in the medicinal materials market.
Medicinal materials are divided into places of origin. For the same medicinal material, but from different places of origin, the price may be different. When inquiring about the information, Gao Mingcheng also learned that their local type of Hedyotis diffusa was also extremely valuable.
Hedyotis diffusa can be harvested twice a year. This time he also brought some dried products, but not much.
Gao Mingcheng was like a diplomat, actively socializing, while Gao Zhuang and Huang Dazhi turned into social terror, standing there and not daring to speak at all.
The two people's eyes followed Gao Mingcheng unconsciously. They both looked at him with admiration when they saw him getting closer with people with just a few words, and calling him brothers after saying a few more words.
"Brother Ming Cheng, I'm so awesome!" Gao Zhuang's face was full of pride.
Huang Dazhi also nodded. He didn't expect that Gao Mingcheng was not only good at fighting, but also good at making friends. If he was asked to take charge, he wouldn't know how to arrange it.
Soon it was time for lunch. Gao Mingcheng's new friend asked him to eat together. Gao Mingcheng naturally agreed, and the group walked to the place to eat.
When passing by Gao Zhuang, Gao Mingcheng gave Gao Zhuang a look. Gao Zhuang immediately understood and nodded.
After Gao Mingcheng and the others left, Gao Zhuang said to Huang Dazhi, "Let's go eat too."
In just one meal, Gao Mingcheng obtained more information. But this information is very superficial. Anyone who has participated in a drug fair can know it.
Under the guidance of his new friends, he rented a stall. I went to the trading place in advance to check the situation and memorized the stall I rented so that I could come and set up a stall tomorrow morning.
In the evening, Gao Mingcheng came back drunk. He looked at Gao Zhuang and Huang Dazhi and said, "Take a bath tonight and change your clothes to avoid smelling."
The two naturally agreed, and then the three of them took turns to take a shower.
Gao Zhuang sat on the clean big bed, looking a little reserved but also a little excited. Yaodu Hotel was only built in 1982, and now it is 1986. The entire building is very new, and the rooms and furnishings inside are also very new, which gives Gao Zhuang a dreamlike illusion.
This also caused him to be cautious everywhere, for fear of breaking something.
As soon as Gao Mingcheng lay down on the bed, he felt that the bed was much more comfortable than the wooden bed he slept on at home. He thought that when he had time when he went back, he would go into the mountains and cut down some more trees, and then build the house as soon as possible.
Marry a wife, build a house, and have a baby in two years, perfect!
PS: When I wrote the first chapter of VIP, I was sweating profusely, and there was an inexplicable pressure in my heart. I couldn't write the words for a long time. Later, I finally wrote it out, and I still felt a lot of dissatisfaction, but I couldn't start to revise it.
But after writing this chapter, the rest of the situation will be slightly better. Well, thank you friends who subscribed!
