Ji Bowen, a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, sent a carnival gift, but it didn't attract much attention.
From Bai Ye's performance to his duel with Goudan and subduing him, he had received at least 200 carnival gifts alone.
Countless other gifts, big and small, were received.
However, a prominent barrage of comments below caught everyone's attention, causing a sensation.
"Hello, streamer! I'm an old Chinese medicine practitioner. The root of the Di Huang Lian in your hand is about 30 years old, which is extremely rare! I'm willing to pay 150,000 yuan to acquire it. Would you be willing to part with it?"
150,000!
150,000 for a single herb?
The audience was instantly stunned.
What they didn't know was that Ji Bowen, in his greed, had already devalued the extreme-grade Di Huang Lian by more than half!
"Is Di Huang Lian really that expensive? Damn, one plant like this can buy a Volkswagen!"
"Normal Di Huang Lian isn't expensive, only a few hundred yuan per jin. But this Chinese medicine practitioner said it's 30 years old! As far as I know, anything above 5 years is already considered a treasure!"
"Goudan's move is perfect! I think I've found a path to riches!!"
"At first, I thought Goudan was just lucky to follow Brother Ye, but who would have thought that Brother Ye had found a treasure!"
"Brothers, I can't say anymore, there seems to be a lot of this grass by the village entrance! I'm already on my way with a sack!"
"The brother upstairs, Gou Fugui, don't forget me!!"
"It's that expensive?"
"Isn't this equivalent to the earnings of 100 carnivals?"
Bai Ye was surprised. He looked at the Di Huang Lian in his hand and smiled.
"Goudan! We don't need this Di Huang Lian anymore! Cold winter vine and Di Yu are also effective enough."
"Wuwuwu..."
However, Goudan opened its mouth, bit down on the Di Huang Lian, and shook its head.
It knew that among these herbs, Di Huang Lian had the best medicinal properties!
"Good boy!"
Bai Ye patted its head, but Goudan didn't let go.
"Slap!"
Bai Ye slapped it. Goudan whimpered a few times, looked at Bai Ye wronged, but still didn't let go.
The man and dog were in a stalemate.
The audience was amused.
"Hahaha, it seems Goudan knows the value of this Di Huang Lian. This is a bit too smart."
"Poor Goudan! Hahaha, I feel like Brother Ye is a bit unkind this time! You're even snatching things from your dog?"
"If it were you! 150,000, a year's income without eating or drinking. Wouldn't you snatch it?"
"That's true too! Hahaha!"
On the other side, a young girl was watching Bai Ye's live stream while snacking, laughing heartily.
Then she became curious.
"30-year-old Di Huang Lian? 150,000 yuan?"
The girl took a screenshot of the screen, then got up and ran to the study.
Inside, an old man with white hair was reading a book with his reading glasses on. He was also a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner and quite reputable.
"Grandpa, look at this good thing!"
As soon as he saw the girl enter, the old man smiled affectionately.
"What is it?"
"Grandpa, look! A 30-year-old Di Huang Lian!"
"Oh?"
The old man took his granddaughter's phone and took a closer look.
His expression immediately turned to shock, his eyes widened, and his pupils trembled.
He looked at his granddaughter and said urgently:
"Xiao Mei, where did you find this Di Huang Lian?"
Seeing her grandfather's reaction, the girl was surprised.
Her grandfather had always been gentle and steady, and she never expected him to react so strongly to a herb.
It seemed this Di Huang Lian was even more precious than she had imagined!
She immediately said, "There's a streamer doing an outdoor live stream, and his pet dog found it!"
Saying that, the girl opened the live stream and showed it to her grandfather.
The old man was startled by the large Goudan, but his gaze was quickly drawn to the Di Huang Lian that Goudan and Bai Ye were fighting over.
Seeing them pulling at the Di Huang Lian, the old man's face showed pain.
"Grandpa, don't you also have a 30-year-old Di Huang Lian? Why are you so surprised?"
"Besides, there's a Chinese medicine practitioner in the live stream who only offered 150,000 to buy it, trying to trick Brother Ye! The one you bought cost 200,000!"
"150,000 to buy it?"
The old man said urgently, "Xiao Mei, quickly! Ask him if he'll sell it for 500,000 yuan."
The girl exclaimed, "Grandpa! 500,000? It can't be that expensive, right?"
The old man said, "You don't understand. This is a 50-year-old Di Huang Lian, priceless! I've never encountered Di Huang Lian of this age before! Quickly! Ask him!"
"50 years old?"
The girl was surprised and nodded.
Immediately, she sent a carnival gift without blinking. She was undoubtedly a little rich woman!
[Tsundere Little Loli sent out a carnival x1]
"Brother Ye, don't sell it to that black-hearted Chinese medicine practitioner, he's deceiving you. My grandpa is also an old Chinese medicine practitioner, named Ye Qi, from Shuzhou. My grandpa said your Di Huang Lian is a 50-year-old extreme-grade Di Huang Lian, and he wants to offer 500,000 yuan to acquire it. Brother Ye, will you sell it?"
"Boom!"
The girl's words immediately caused a huge stir in the live stream.
"Someone actually dares to trick streamer Ye? Aren't they afraid he'll let his dog bite them? Or burn down your entire family?"
"And this is a 50-year-old Di Huang Lian? Worth 500,000 yuan?"
"My heavens! Is this medicinal ingredient so precious? 500,000 yuan? That's enough for a BMW 5 Series!!"
"Holy crap! Ye Qi, Old Chinese Medicine Practitioner Ye? Isn't he a professor at the Shuzhou Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine? If it's him, then the age and value of this Di Huang Lian are correct!!!"
"I suddenly find Goudan so cute!! I really want to raise such a dog!"
"With a dog like Goudan, is it you raising the dog? Or is the dog raising you?"
"Speaking of which, that Chinese medicine practitioner earlier offered 150,000 yuan for Brother Ye's extreme-grade Di Huang Lian. That's too unethical!"
"Yeah, how can he call himself a Chinese medicine practitioner?"
Ji Bowen, the traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, saw his hidden intentions exposed in public, his face turning red and white through the screen.
"500,000 yuan?"
Bai Ye's eyes lit up when he saw someone offering 500,000 yuan.
He raised his hand and swung it. With a "pop," he used more force this time.
Goudan whimpered a few times and let go.
"Goudan, this thing isn't very useful to us!"
Then, Bai Ye leaned closer to Goudan and said, "Give me this Di Huang Lian. Tonight, I'll give you some glucose, that blue liquid I drank earlier when I hit you!"
Upon hearing this, Goudan's round eyes lit up, and saliva dripped down.
Bai Ye's magic potion was much stronger than these so-called extreme-grade medicinal ingredients.
It could restore magic power, enhance physique, and even heal injuries.
Therefore, even though Bai Ye was injured, he wasn't in a hurry to go to the hospital!
"Woof woof!!"
"Good boy!"
Bai Ye put away the Di Huang Lian and patted Goudan's head.
"That tsundere little loli, is your grandpa really offering 500,000 yuan?"
The girl immediately messaged Bai Ye excitedly.
"Yes, yes, it's true! Brother Ye, my grandpa always keeps his word, he won't lie to you!"
Bai Ye nodded. Just as he was about to decide to sell it to them, the live stream showed new activity.
[Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioner Ji Bowen sent out a carnival x1]
"Streamer, esteemed netizens, I apologize profusely. I didn't examine it carefully earlier and made a misjudgment! Here, I sincerely apologize. Additionally, I am still genuinely willing to purchase the Di Huang Lian in the streamer's hand. This time, I am willing to offer 550,000 yuan!"
"This guy is apologizing?"
"He even increased the price by 50,000!!!"
The audience exclaimed again. They couldn't understand why such a herb could have such a high value.
"This guy!! Grandpa, that black-hearted Chinese medicine practitioner is trying to snatch the Di Huang Lian from you!"
The girl said indignantly.
Old Chinese Medicine Practitioner Ye Qi smiled kindly.
"Such an extreme-grade herb is a treasure in our eyes as Chinese medicine practitioners, so there will naturally be many who want it! I'll increase the price by 50,000 to 600,000 yuan."
"Okay, Grandpa!"
[Tsundere Little Loli sent out a carnival x1]
"Brother Ye, my grandpa is offering 600,000 yuan!"
"Boom!"
The netizens were stunned once again.
In an instant, the price had increased by 100,000 yuan!
100,000 yuan was a year's salary for an ordinary person!
Could this Di Huang Lian bring people back from the dead? Why was it selling for such a high price?
"Can any handsome guy or busty beauty explain?"
As soon as these words were spoken, many people responded, but most of them were making random guesses.
Suddenly, a professional emerged.
[Ganzhou Hengyun Medicinal Materials Merchant sent out a carnival x1]
"Cough, cough, let me say a few words. I am the manager of Ganzhou Hengyun Medicinal Materials Merchant. In fact, the medicinal value of this Di Huang Lian itself, such as clearing heat and dampness, purging fire, and detoxifying, is not that high! But because it is 50 years old, which is extremely rare, it has great collectible value. Just like ginseng, some extreme-grade ginseng can fetch millions of yuan, far exceeding its medicinal value of tonifying vital energy and benefiting the spleen and lungs!"
"So that's how it is! Thanks for the explanation, old friend."
"This Ganzhou Hengyun Medicinal Materials Merchant seems quite good!"
The audience praised one after another.
Ganzhou Hengyun Medicinal Materials Merchant smiled smugly.
It was worth sending a carnival to do some advertising.
Then, he sent another carnival.
"Streamer, Ganzhou Hengyun Medicinal Materials Merchant is willing to offer 700,000 yuan to collect the Di Huang Lian in your hand!"
"Boom!"
The entire network was in an uproar.
The price had increased by another 100,000 yuan.
No one expected the medicinal ingredient that Goudan found to be so valuable.
Countless people were envious.
"Working hard for half a lifetime is not as profitable as raising a dog!"
Bai Ye was grinding medicinal ingredients for Goudan while watching the situation in the live stream.
He didn't expect to start selling goods as soon as he gained popularity!
As for who to sell to, as a collectible, it naturally goes to the highest bidder!
He sat back and watched.
[Tsundere Little Loli sent out a carnival x1]
"Brother Ye, my grandpa is offering 750,000 yuan!"
[Ganzhou Hengyun Medicinal Materials Merchant sent out a carnival x1]
"Ganzhou Hengyun Medicinal Materials Merchant offers 800,000 yuan!"
[Wanzhou Jixing Medicinal Materials Merchant sent out a carnival x1]
"Fellow colleagues and seniors, Wanzhou Jixing Medicinal Materials Merchant is also interested in the streamer's 50-year-old Di Huang Lian and offers 850,000 yuan to acquire it sincerely!"
More and more people participated in the bidding.
In the blink of an eye, Bai Ye's live stream turned into a large-scale auction.
The popularity was extremely high, and the number of online viewers broke through 800,000.
He had become the number one streamer on Douyin that night!
The new viewers were bewildered.
"Holy crap, what medicinal ingredient is so expensive? 100,000 yuan a plant??"
"Isn't this a magic streamer? Why isn't he performing magic and is instead selling goods? Damn, 1.05 million yuan, that's too expensive!"
"Hehe, newbies, you don't know, right? This medicinal ingredient was found by the streamer's dog!"
New viewers: "!!!"
The bidding was still ongoing.
However, after exceeding 1 million yuan, most of the bidders withdrew.
Finally, Grandpa Ye gritted his teeth and offered 1.25 million yuan, successfully defeating all competitors.
Bai Ye was pleasantly surprised.
"Congratulations to Grandpa Ye for winning the auction. Please contact me privately after the stream ends."
Tsundere Little Loli: "Okay!"
Grandpa Ye felt a pang of heartache. This price far exceeded his budget.
As for his granddaughter, her little face was filled with joy.
She was the first fan to contact Bai Ye privately.
After applying medicine to Goudan, Bai Ye bandaged its head, back, and paws with gauze.
Bai Ye praised, "Well done!"
"Woof woof woof!"
Goudan, with bandages wrapped around it, looked adorably silly, making the netizens burst into laughter.
Then, Bai Ye also applied medicine to himself.
With bandages on his arm and chest, he looked handsome, with an indescribable explosive, wild charm.
After putting on his clothes and tidying himself up, Bai Ye, with Goudan, began to clean up the mess they had made on the beach.
For the things they couldn't take away, such as flower petals, Bai Ye burned them all to ashes with a single flame.
The new viewers finally saw Bai Ye's magic of starting a fire with his bare hands, and they couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
11 PM.
"Alright, it's getting late. Tonight's live stream ends here. If you haven't followed me yet, please give me a follow to show your support. This little streamer's life is not easy, thank you everyone!"
The netizens kept rolling their eyes.
"Little streamer? A little streamer with 800,000 viewers in the live stream?"
"Do you still let those streamers with only a few thousand viewers live?"
"Life is not easy?"
"You just sold over a million yuan worth of medicinal ingredients!"
"How many tens of thousands of gift revenue did you get?"
The live stream was once again flooded with comments from netizens.
"Versailles Master!"
"Versailles Master!"
"Pfft!"
Seeing Bai Ye's serious pretense, Xiao Daimei couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Xiao Daimei, it was nice meeting you! Goodbye!"
Bai Ye waved goodbye to Xiao Daimei.
Xiao Daimei felt a bit lost, reluctant to part, but still wore a well-behaved smile.
"Brother Ye, we're friends now, right? Let's interact more in the future!"
"Okay!"
After disconnecting the call, Bai Ye closed the live stream with a thought.
Everything quieted down.
He slung his backpack over his shoulder, turned his head, and said to Goudan:
"Let's go home!"
Goudan's expression was excited, its tongue hanging out.
"Woof woof woof!"
The man and his dog darted into the forest and disappeared.
The coast returned to calm.
