Chapter 193 The kid is so conscious It is difficult, but Cheng Ming is very envious of the effect of the strengthening potion. Who wouldn’t be tempted by a health-enhancing drug that is similar to the ones in fantasy novels? So giving up is impossible. He called Wen Yilin directly. "Sister Wen, do you know any Cordyceps buyers on the plateau?" "Hmm..." Wen Yilin obviously had not expected this question, and she did not react for a moment. However, she had sometimes experienced Cheng Ming's wild imagination, and she had some resistance to it. "Our Yinhai medicine doesn't require Cordyceps, and I don't know anyone like that, but..." "But what?" "I do know that there are several merchants selling Cordyceps in the Lianjing Specialty Market in Yangcheng. Do you want me to send someone to inquire about it?"
"No need." Cheng Ming quickly refused, "If I need anything, I can go by myself." For things like this, it’s better to let as few people know as possible. If people guess that the special medicinal materials Cheng Ming needs are related to future new drugs, I am afraid he will never have the chance to obtain those special medicinal materials again! Although the probability of this happening is very low, Cheng Ming has always been accustomed to eliminating all unfavorable factors. "Well, that market is at No. 65 Baiyun Road, Yangcheng." "Ok." After hanging up the phone, Cheng Ming first sent a message to Guan Jing to report his itinerary, and then drove to Yangcheng. Two hours later, Cheng Ming arrived at the border specialty market that Wen Yilin mentioned. This market is very spacious. Rather than being a market, it is more like a commercial city, with all kinds of shops and stalls, and a wide variety of goods. There is everything you can think of, including ox horn products from the grassland, kumis, goat milk products, ginseng from the Northeast, dried fruits from the Western Regions, beef jerky from the plateau, and rare seafood from the coastal areas. Guangzhou is indeed one of the largest cities in the south and a distribution center for retail and wholesale of commodities. When Cheng Ming entered here, he felt overwhelmed and everything was new. but Where are the highland vendors selling Cordyceps? At a glance, there are endless shops and stalls. It would probably take a lot of effort to find the vendors selling Cordyceps among these countless stalls. At this time, Cheng Ming suddenly saw a few children playing on the street. These children looked very exotic, but they spoke fluent Longguo dialect while playing. Cheng Ming subconsciously asked: "Children, are you Chinese?" "Of course!" answered a little boy of eight or nine years old. "What nationality are you from?" The kid said without hesitation: "We are the Chinese nation!"
Cheng Ming couldn't help but be stunned. This child is very conscious. He will achieve great things in the future! But that's not what he wanted to ask. He just thought these kids looked like people from the plateau, so he planned to ask them about the plateau merchants. I didn't expect the child to answer like this. Cheng Ming didn't know what to say for a moment. It happened that he had just bought some specialty pastries from the ancient city nearby, and he threw the pastries to the little boy and his brothers. "Little brother is so conscious at such a young age, let me treat you to something to eat!" "Thank you!" The little brother took the cake and immediately shared it with his brothers. He smiled brightly while eating the cake, and the highland red on his face was bright red in the sunlight. After finishing the meal, Cheng Ming asked again: "Are you from the Plateau Tribe?" The kid and his companion nodded. "Then do you know if there are any plateau merchants selling Cordyceps in this market?" "I know." The kid nodded and said, "There are three vendors in the market who specialize in selling Cordyceps. One is called Suonang, one is called Deji, and the other is Sister Baima." Cheng Ming was very happy, it seemed that the pastries were worth the gift. "Can you tell me where they are? This market is so big, I've been looking around for a long time but can't find them." "I'll take you there directly!" After the kid finished speaking, he did not allow Cheng Ming to refuse. He walked in front and asked Cheng Ming to follow. Following the little brother, Cheng Ming came to several neighboring shops owned by people from the plateau. The kid pointed at the shops and said, "That's Suolang, the one next to him is Deji, and sister Baima is over there." Cheng Ming nodded: "Thank you." "You're welcome. We are Dragon people helping Dragon people." The little boy said, and then waved goodbye to Cheng Ming. Cheng Ming really likes this kind of kid. But the most urgent task is to find Cordyceps first. Cheng Ming was standing in front of three shops. Suddenly, a man with a dark complexion, wearing a turban and a mustache walked out of the nearest shop. "Need something?" "Boss, what do you call me?" "My name is Solang." "Boss Solang, let me see your Cordyceps." Cheng Ming said as he walked into the shop. A strange smell of plants and earth hit his nose. However, Cheng Ming endured it in order to find the Cordyceps he wanted. Cordyceps sinensis, as the name suggests, should be purple cordyceps? But Cheng Ming looked around the Cordyceps on his shelf and didn't find any purple ones.
Cheng Ming asked, "Boss Suolan, do you have any other Cordyceps?" Suolang was initially quite enthusiastic, but when he saw Cheng Ming's question, he knew that it was unlikely to be accomplished, and his attitude suddenly became less enthusiastic. "No more, these are all we have in stock." "Okay then, I'll go take a look around." "it is good." Cheng Ming left Suolan's small shop and went to the next shop. The owner was also a man in his thirties, dressed similarly to Suolan. I guess this is the Deji that the kid mentioned. After a conversation, Deji was still not interested in Cheng Ming and just let Cheng Ming look around the store. Cheng Ming walked around Dezhi's shop again, but still couldn't find the purple Cordyceps. Cheng Ming suddenly asked: "Boss, how long have you been in this business?" "About seven years." Deji didn't seem to be very eager to talk. "Have you ever seen a purple Cordyceps?" "Purple?" Deji was stunned. "You have been wandering around here for so long just now, just looking for purple Cordyceps?" Cheng Ming nodded. "Then I think you are probably wasting your time. I have been in this business for seven years and have never heard of any purple Cordyceps." Deji shook his head. "Boss, do you know any Cordyceps buyers on the plateau?" Cheng Ming wanted to ask. "I don't know him, I get all the goods from middlemen." Deji looked impatient. Obviously, he could see that the man in front of him wanted to find a special kind of Cordyceps, but he didn't know whether this kind of Cordyceps existed, and even if it did, the quantity would not be large. How to make money if the quantity is not large? He Deji is a Cordyceps wholesaler, and he only does retail occasionally. It would be so troublesome for him to help others find goods, especially as he is a retailer. It would be better for him not to do this business. Cheng Ming naturally understood what Deji meant, so he had to say goodbye and came to the third Cordyceps merchant. A woman in her twenties came forward. "Boss, what can I do for you?"
