Chapter 343 What's the story?
Cheng Ming returned to Haicheng and stayed there for several days.
He had been waiting for He Eryou to call him, and he was getting impatient every day.
It's very frustrating to feel like the mission target is there but you can't get it in a short time.
He has been working in the medicine garden these days.
But even Xie Wensheng could see that Boss Cheng was a little absent-minded.
Xie Wensheng had clearly lost the bet to Cheng Ming last time, and according to the bet he could no longer come to fish in the medicine garden pond, but he actually openly broke the contract, showing no sense of contract at all!
Cheng Ming was harvesting medicinal herbs in the fields nearby.
Xie Wensheng was pulling things wildly in the pond.
He had just caught a big fish, and after taking a look at Cheng Ming's appearance, he smiled and said, "What's the matter? What have you been thinking about all day?"
"Nothing." Cheng Ming said.
At this time, the phone rang.
Cheng Ming quickly answered the phone, and a familiar voice came from the other end. It was He Eryou.
"Boss Cheng, I'm home now. You can come over to collect the ginger."
"Okay, I'll be there right away."
Cheng Ming suddenly perked up, put down the small shovel in his hand and was about to leave the medicine garden.
Bored Xie Wensheng quickly asked: "Where are you going? Take me with you! I'm a little tired of fishing in the pond."
"Guangfu County." Cheng Ming said truthfully.
"Guangfu County?"
Xie Wensheng vaguely remembered that this was a small county town several hundred kilometers away, and it seemed that there were no large bodies of water nearby?
The resources shouldn't be that good.
Forget it. I’m bored now anyway, and some netizens asked to go with Boss Cheng.
I, Xie Wensheng, will follow you reluctantly.
"Let's go! I'll go too." Xie Wensheng said and put away his equipment.
"Then hurry up."
In this way, the two men drove away from the medicine garden, and a few hours later, they arrived at the door of He Eryou's home in Niuma Village, Guangfu County.
He Eryou warmly welcomed the two of them into the house.
"Boss Cheng, you are finally here. Thank you so much for what happened last time. If it weren't for you, my father might..."
"It's just a small matter." Cheng Ming said, and then he asked, "How is your father's condition?"
In fact, with Cheng Ming's medical skills, he could easily guess that the old man would be able to recover his health by now after the operation.
If you are lucky, there will only be mild side effects that will not affect your daily life.
So He Eryou's father should be fine now.
But I asked out of politeness.
He Eryou said: "He has been discharged from the hospital and is fine now."
Cheng Ming was just a little curious.
Since you have been discharged from the hospital, why haven’t you been seen at home?
Did he go out for something?
Given his current physical condition, it is not appropriate for him to go out.
However, this was someone else's family affair, and it was not convenient for Cheng Ming, an outsider, to interfere, so he did not ask any more questions.
"Boss Cheng, last time you said you wanted the batch of ginger from my field?" He Eryou asked.
"Yes." Cheng Ming said.
"Then let's go, I'll take you there directly."
After saying that, He Eryou took Cheng Ming to the fields, and Xie Wensheng followed behind them with his cell phone in hand.
The fields were not far from Niuma Village, and the three of them soon arrived at the edge of a field.
The fields are full of green ginger leaves.
"I only planted more than two acres. When I have nothing to do, I dig some and sell them in town to earn some living expenses." He Eryou said. He turned to look at Cheng Ming, "Boss Cheng, you helped me a lot this time. If you want this ginger, just take it."
"How can this be possible!" Cheng Ming said.
"What's wrong with that? I agreed not to charge you any money," He Eryou insisted.
Cheng Ming had no choice. He was in a dilemma. He was the boss of the No. 1 pharmaceutical company. If people knew that he accepted a gift from an ordinary farmer, wouldn't it be ridiculous?
Besides, he was not after those ordinary gingers, but for the Jade Emperor ginger mixed in among these gingers.
But here's the problem.
The stem and leaves of Jade Emperor Ginger are no different from those of ordinary ginger. The only difference lies in the root part, which is the meat ginger itself.
Ordinary ginger is white or clay-colored, but Jade Emperor Ginger is as its name suggests, with a smooth color similar to jade.
Ginger grows in the ground.
If you want to find Jade Emperor Ginger, you have to pull out all the ginger.
Xie Wensheng didn’t know what kind of entanglement the two had before, but he could guess a little from their reactions.
He said to He Eryou: "Brother, Lao Cheng doesn't actually need your ginger. He is just looking for some special ginger. He doesn't want ordinary ginger."
I can only say that he is worthy of being called Xie Wensheng. Having followed Cheng Ming to look for medicine many times, he already knows what Cheng Ming is going to do.
Cheng Ming nodded.
"Ah, in that case." He Eryou didn't know what to do.
Cheng Ming thought about it and came up with an idea: "Brother, I won't hide it from you. I want to find a special kind of ginger. I think there may be such ginger in your field, but I'm not sure."
"How about this, let's pull out all your ginger. I only want the kind of ginger I need, and I'll give you the regular kind to sell. How do you think?"
He Eryou paused for a moment and nodded: "Okay."
"But two acres isn't too much, but it's not too little either. Is there just three of us turning it?" Xie Wensheng asked.
This guy just wants to be lazy.
Cheng Ming actually didn't want to do it himself. It wasn't because he didn't have the physical strength, but he just thought it was a waste of time and he wanted to finish the task quickly.
"That's easy. I'll ask a few people in the village to help!" He Eryou said, "Many people are on New Year's Day these two days, so there should be quite a few people free."
Cheng Ming asked hurriedly: "How much does it cost to hire someone to do the work?"
"Probably around one hundred and twenty." He Eryou said.
It’s quite cheap, Cheng Ming thought.
"Brother, please call a few more people to help. I will pay you three hundred yuan a day," he said.
He Eryou was surprised.
Three hundred dollars a day?
That's a lot of money.
Who is this boss? How can he be so generous?
But the boss doesn't want the ginger. Most of the ginger will definitely be left for He Eryou. It means that the boss pays money to help him dig the ginger.
He Er would feel very guilty if he made his boss spend so much more money.
"Boss Cheng, it doesn't really take three hundred. Even if you want to pay more, a hundred and fifty would be enough for many people to do it."
"No, just three hundred. I hope to finish it in one day." Cheng Ming said.
"This" He Er felt very embarrassed.
Xie Wensheng beside him laughed and said, "Brother, don't save money for him. He is a big boss. His family has too much money to spend. Have you seen his car? Guess how much his car costs?"
Speaking of cars, He Er was a little interested. It was Boss Cheng who used that black car to take his father to the hospital.
"How many?"
Xie Wensheng held up three fingers.
He Eryou had no idea what luxury cars were. He was slightly surprised: "Three hundred thousand? That's really expensive!"
Xie Wensheng laughed: "Add another zero!"
"What!?"
He Eryou was shocked! He took a breath and looked at Cheng Ming again.
A car costs three million! ?
Who is this boss?
I guess the plot of the elixir of immortality will be over after I finish writing it. Thanks, gentlemen.
