Today I would like to introduce you to a kind of "jianghu deception," which is a gang crime, a deception of the peasants, and the whole village and a whole brigade of people who are deceived. Once the deception is successful, the scammers make huge profits, but the number of people who are harmed is also ten. This kind of business is called "bait" in the jianghu.

In the past, under the eaves of the countryside, in the soil at the root of the earthen wall, there was a kind of insect called "ground turtle", which we used to call "earth turtle", which was shaped like a "turtle", only two or three centimeters long. This is a "traditional Chinese medicine", which can "disperse stasis", "menstruation", "treatment of bruises", "women's amenorrhea" and other diseases.
The living environment of the "earth turtle" is very wide, and there is no clear goal to find it. There is dirt under the corner of the wall in the countryside, and it is necessary to peel open the soil under the corner of the wall to find a few, but who is willing to dig their own corner? Who wants to let someone dig their own corner? Chinese medicine stores all buy "earth turtles", and the price is not low, catch a female "earth turtle" dried, get the Chinese medicine store can sell money. But the amount of this drug is limited, and if it is more, it is worthless, and no one even buys it.
Fortunately, this kind of insect can not catch much, a person takes the "guy" to the field to dig, only afraid of digging for a day, may not be able to catch one, is caught, but also the mother's, the male has wings, the drug store does not want, can not sell money. Whoever is willing to dig the foot of the wall can only catch three or five mothers. In addition, this bug burrows the soil very quickly, and it takes a lot of deep soil to catch it, and no one will risk the collapse of the house for this money. Therefore, the value of "earth turtle" has always been high, and it is a "shortage of medicinal materials", and it can be sold for money when it is obtained from pharmacies.
People in the rivers and lakes are not unfamiliar with "earth turtles", and the people who "hang up the door" in the rivers and lakes, that is, those who practice martial arts or practice martial arts on the rivers and lakes, make "bruise medicine", "earth turtles" are indispensable "traditional Chinese medicine", or catch themselves, or go to pharmacies to buy. But the pharmacy this thing is not cheap, "earth turtle" is toxic, so the dosage is extremely small, a "dry earth turtle" can be configured with a lot of "bruise medicine". This kind of medicine is valuable in the hands of jianghu people, and the cost is doubled by 10 to 20 times, which cannot be regarded as a huge profit. In the words of the jianghu: this thing is "sharp", really can cure the disease, not "fishy", purely with a mess of "grass and wood ash" to deceive people.
"Earth turtle" can bring a lot of profits to the people in the rivers and lakes, this is not, there are people in the rivers and lakes who have made ideas on its head, tapped the potential, made the best use of their materials, and used it to "throw bait" to do the "big scam" of the jianghu and make a lot of money. In the jianghu, everyone who does this kind of business is a "fire cave (good business)".
How to do it with "turtle bait"? Three or four people gang up, pretending to be the staff of the "National Agricultural Scientific Research Institution", or pretending to be the buyer of the "Chinese Medicinal Materials Acquisition Company", in short, the fame must be great, the prestige must be high, the more complete the various documents, the better (the certificates and official seals are of course false), and there must be a printed "contract".
When you go to a place, first ask the village leader to show the "letter of introduction" and "identity certificate", if you want to say that you are here to contact the work, you can't say that you are here to "cheat"!
What kind of work do you contact? If it is a buyer of the "Chinese Medicinal Materials Company", it can be said that there is a shortage of "earth turtles" in the north, and they are specially sent to the south to teach the technology of "artificial breeding of earth turtles", because the climate and geographical environment in the north are not suitable for the growth of "earth turtles". Of course, this is assuming that in the south to cheat, if in the north to cheat, that is, the south is in short supply, the southern climate is not suitable for the growth of "earth turtles".
If the person who "baits" falsely claims to be the staff of an authoritative "scientific research institution", it can be said that the experts of the "Chinese Academy of Sciences" have found a certain "substance" from the "earth turtle", which can effectively "treat cancer", which is more powerful and more effective than the existing "anti-cancer drugs". At present, this is still a "national special-level confidentiality project", so it can only be known to people at the level of "village branch secretary".
In short, it must be said very "mysterious", people who listen will believe, if what is said is too ordinary, people who listen will certainly not believe. If you say that instead of "cement" to build a house, then no one will believe, "cement" can be bought everywhere, the price is not expensive, why go to the "turtle" to refine, this is not "take off the pants and fart"? If it is said that it is used for "fertilizer", then the "village secretary" asks the farmers to sprinkle it in the field to see the "fertilizer effect", is it higher than the imported "urea"? It is also a deception of adults.
People who do "bait" must make up a set of watertight lies in advance, that is, the "newspaper mouth" on the rivers and lakes, and the "newspaper mouth" that does "bait" is also very exquisite, and the "report mouth" must be known, but it cannot be understood. For example, the "atomic bomb" is known to everyone, but what the main raw materials are, the peasants do not understand. But you can't directly tell the farmer that a certain substance extracted from the "turtle" can change the "half-life" of the "nuclear material", and the people who listen to it do not know what the "half-life" is, and they cannot believe it if they want to believe it.
The "reporting mouth" of "throwing bait" must not leak water, because the "deceitful person" and the "deceived person" must deal with each other for a long time, and if the "deceived person" comes up with a loophole in the "reporting mouth", it will immediately "blow up the tent", not only will the deception not succeed, but it will also cause other troubles, and it is not good to "drop the kiln" that is, to enter the "cell".
The "mouth" of "throwing bait" should be watertight, and in jianghu parlance, it is "tight". Selling things on the street with "clearing the newspaper mouth" and "pointing out the canopy (inviting onlookers)", the "newspaper mouth" should not be too "tight", too "tight" is easy to "explode", because the logic is too strict, the people who listen are bored, sleepy, simply walk away and do not listen to you. It doesn't matter if there are some loopholes in the street to do "clear the mouth", the people who listen to it are too late to figure out the loopholes in your words, as long as you speak quickly, speak with righteousness, don't be timid, even if the loopholes are full of it. As long as the opening can catch the "point (the person who can be deceived)" and make the "point" set, even if you are talking, the person who listens to it is also exquisite.
For example, selling "pure yang argon pills" on the street, the jianghu people who sell medicines say: "Everyone, the eyes are the jewels, the mouth is the touchstone, the real gold is not afraid of fire refining, and the good goods are not afraid of testing." You see, the treasure in my hand is called the Pure Yang Aphrodisiac Pill, what is the use of this Pure Impotence Pill? He can strengthen his bones and bones, get rid of diseases and disasters. ”
He is not yet 50 years old, insisting that he is in his 70s this year, saying that his master is 108 years old this year. Eat this ancestral "pure yang angry pills", 70 years old is a naughty child, 80 is a teenager, in the early 100s is just young, the first 80 years of white to give you life, hair fell out heavy and long, grew a "fetal hair", teeth fell out and grew heavy, grew a mouthful of "milk teeth", and turned into childhood again. Then he said how precious the material of his "pure yang qi pill" was and how complicated the production process was. Such a "clear newspaper mouth" is said to be crazy, and the people who listen to it have instead paid money to buy his "pure yang aphrodisiac pills", and no one has investigated deeply.
Let's go on to talk about the "trick" of "throwing bait" and selling "earth turtles". The "bait-throwers" are taught the banner of "ground turtles, artificial breeding techniques", so that farmers can increase their income. Under the leadership of the village secretary, he went to each production team to find a representative of a poor peasant household and piloted it at this place first. Teach the method of breeding to the family, and then give 300 "earth turtle eggs" and recycle them after three months.
By three months, the representative families of farmers in each pilot household have generally raised about 200 adult "female earth turtles". At this time, the "bait" people began to recycle, and the "bait" people deducted the cost of 20 yuan of "worm eggs" and paid 200 yuan to each "pilot household". (Now there are many artificial breeding of earth turtles, so the price has also come down, friends do not be more real)
"Soil turtle" is an omnivorous insect, feeding is very convenient, as long as a wooden box or a pool with bricks, cultivate soil, often put some weeds, leaves, vegetable skins and the like on the soil, after three months can grow into "soil turtle worms". It is more convenient than raising anything, and the income is large and fast.
After the "pilot" and then "fully rolled out", every household in the village is vying to raise, according to the supply of households, each household is only allowed to buy 1,000 yuan of "worm eggs", recycled after three months, and then pay 10,000 yuan per household. "Fully rolled out", it is necessary for each household to take money out to buy "insect eggs", first "bait", now "fishing", such a village, can deceive hundreds of thousands of yuan.
Where do the "worm eggs" come from? A single "female worm" can lay five or six hundred eggs and raise thousands of "earth turtle worms" (a one-square-meter box can raise about 2,000 adult worms), and it can be sold all over the country.
After selling the "worm eggs" and cheating the money, the "bait" people will never come back to buy them. Peasant friends have no choice but to take it to the pharmacy to sell, but this "earth turtle" is more, the pharmacy will not collect, collect more, can not sell, do not want money and there is no place to put it.
Wherever it is "baited", the "earth turtle worms" are piled up, this thing has no use except for medicine, if you dare to use it to feed pigs, he can poison the pigs. Cheating through a place, and then changing places, the distance to jump farther, as long as the "fishy wind" can not blow, still "get it". Three or four people, as long as they deceive a few villages a year, this year's days are enough to spend days and days and drink.
The "bait" scam on the rivers and lakes is not necessarily the use of "earth turtle worms", any local specialty can be, as long as this kind of thing has its own value, and no one on the market can plant or breed it.
