Love That Extends Life

Chapter 117 Bidding for Precious Medicinal Materials

At this time, Murong Xue saw Wu Yanzi beside Chu Yunhao, so she continued to ask, "Brother Chu Yunhao, why don't you introduce your girlfriend to me?"

After Chu Yunhao heard Murong Xue's question, he looked at Wu Yanzi. When he found that Wu Yanzi was smiling, he introduced her to Murong Xue: "My good friend Wu Yanzi!"

After Chu Yunhao introduced her, Wu Yanzi immediately stood up and nodded to Murong Xue, "I'm Wu Yanzi, and I'm very happy to meet Sister Murong here!"

Murong Xue also stood up to return the greeting, and then waved her hand for Wu Yanzi to sit down. "Sister Wu Yanzi, sit down! Sit down!" After Murong Xue sat down, she nodded to Wu Yanzi, "Sister Wu Yanzi, I am also very happy to meet you. I hope you will come to play with me more often in the future. Okay, leave me your phone number and WeChat later."

"Okay, Sister Murong." Wu Yanzi agreed.

At this time, the waiter brought a fruit plate and snacks to the table, and also replaced the tea.

Murong Xue was reluctant to come to the medicinal materials auction, but now she likes to stay here. If she hadn't come here today, how could she have met the handsome brother? She got in touch with Wu Yanzi through chatting, and then she could get the other party's contact information. Otherwise, it would be very abrupt to ask for Chu Yunhao's contact information directly. As long as she had Wu Yanzi's contact information, she would have Chu Yunhao's contact information in the future, and even know where the handsome brother lived. Her goal would be achieved.

At 9:18 in the morning, the Chinese medicinal materials auction officially began in the multi-function hall on the fourth floor of Donglai Pavilion Hotel.

First, Ke Yawen, deputy general manager of Donglai Pavilion Hotel, delivered a speech on behalf of Donglai Pavilion Hotel.

"On behalf of Donglai Pavilion Hotel, I warmly welcome the Nanshi Chinese Medicine Association to hold a Chinese herbal medicine auction at Donglai Pavilion Hotel, and wish the Chinese herbal medicine auction a complete success! Now, please welcome Zheng Hesong, President of the Nanshi Chinese Medicine Association, to deliver the opening speech!"

Then, Zheng Hesong, president of the Nanshi Traditional Chinese Medicine Association, began to deliver the opening speech and introduced the auction process and rules of this Chinese medicinal materials auction.

Chu Yunhao did not see his aunt Chu Tianhui at the Chinese medicinal materials auction. He must have been too busy with other businesses to attend, so he arranged for Deputy General Manager Ke Yawen to go to the Chinese medicinal materials auction.

After the Chinese medicinal materials auction officially began, the auctioneer appointed by the Nanshi Chinese Medicine Association stepped onto the display stand. The auctioneer first introduced the fifty rare Chinese medicinal materials to be auctioned at this auction to everyone present, and emphasized that the entire auction process will follow the principle of order. Next, he informed the guests participating in the auction that before each item is auctioned, authoritative experts in the industry will be invited to give detailed comments and introductions on the precious medicinal materials. Once the auction is successful, the Chinese Medicine Association will stamp the official seal on the auction document for confirmation, which marks the successful completion of an auction process.

Chu Yunhao had already told the old shopkeeper Li Baolin that he no longer needed Tai Sui when he met him. This was undoubtedly good news for Li Baolin, because in this way, Tai Sui could be eliminated from their bet. After all, a rare and precious medicinal material like Tai Sui was not so easy to buy, and eliminating this item would also save him a lot of worry.

The staff placed three auction items on the display stand, which were three precious Chinese medicinal materials. The name tags of the medicinal materials stated the name of the medicinal materials and the minimum auction price, while the sub-page next to the name tags provided a detailed introduction to its origin and medicinal quality.

The Hundred-year-old Polygonum multiflorum and Giant Clam that Chu Yunhao wanted were both auctioned at this medicinal material auction, with the Hundred-year-old Polygonum multiflorum ranked 48th and the Giant Clam ranked 49th. Therefore, in the previous auction, he just watched the excitement, but Baicaotang would select some suitable precious medicinal materials for bidding, which also made him feel a little interested.

Every item at the medicinal materials auction is a rare and precious medicinal material, and each precious medicinal material has unique efficacy and value.

Only through medicinal materials auctions can we get to know the precious medicinal materials of Chinese traditional medicine. These precious medicinal materials are hard to come by, which also adds unique and precious attributes to the precious medicinal materials, so its value can be reflected in the auction.

Chu Yunhao felt awe in his heart. He realized that this auction was not just a transaction of medicinal materials, but also the inheritance and promotion of Chinese medicine culture.

The first item of the auction is the golden chrysanthemum produced in Baituo Mountain in the Western Regions. It weighs 1000 grams and has a starting price of 4800 yuan.

"Sister Yan Zi, what are the benefits of this golden chrysanthemum?"

The first precious medicinal material in the auction has already started bidding amid the auctioneer's shout, and Chu Yunhao is chatting with Wu Yanzi at this time.

"This golden chrysanthemum is considered a precious medicinal material, especially the golden chrysanthemum from the Western Regions, which is extremely rare. The medicinal properties of golden chrysanthemum are very wide, and it can be used together with many medicinal materials. Its main effect is to clear away heat and detoxify, and it also has the effects of lowering blood pressure and blood sugar and delaying aging. Therefore, many wealthy people will use golden chrysanthemum as a tea for health care."

After the auction of the Golden Chrysanthemum began, it was finally won by the guest at table No. 5800 for 15 yuan.

The second precious medicinal material to be auctioned was a bird's nest from an island in Xiamen, Fujian, and the third precious medicinal material to be auctioned was wild sika deer antlers from Changbai Mountain in Northeast China.

After the bird's nest was auctioned off, it was time for the deer antler auction. Chu Yunhao saw that the bid price was 15,000. He asked Wu Yanzi again, "Sister Yanzi, is there any difference between the deer antlers being auctioned and the ones we bought at the medicine fair last time?"

After Wu Yanzi took a look at the velvet antlers on auction, she leaned close to Chu Yunhao's ear and whispered, "Brother Chu, this velvet antler is almost the same as the one we bought at the medicine fair, but judging from its weight and bifurcation, it is still not as good as the two-bar velvet antler we bought."

The bidding price for Lu Rong started from 9 and went up to 36. At this time, there were only two bidders left, one of which was the guest at table , and the other was the guest at table in the distance.

Chu Yunhao didn't expect that Murong Xue's table would bid for deer antlers. He just watched the two parties bidding curiously.

"I bid thirty-five thousand!" The guest at table number 9 shouted out a new bid.

At this time, the auctioneer began his personal performance, "Thirty-five thousand, the guest at table 9 bids thirty-five thousand! The guest at table 36, do you want to bid?"

"Forty thousand!" The guest at table No. 36 bid again.

The auctioneer then began to question the guests at table number 9, and his bidding hammer was also banging along.

"Forty thousand, for the first time..."

"Forty thousand, the second time..."

"I bid forty-five thousand!" The guest at table number 9 continued to bid.

"Forty-five thousand, first time..."

"Forty-five thousand, the second time..."

"Forty-five thousand, the third time..."

As the auctioneer's hammer fell, the precious medicinal herb deer antler was successfully purchased by the guest at table No. 9 for a price of .
