Chapter 138: The Role of Ginseng
The people watching the play around were all surprised, a little lamenting that Lin Mu was about to be retaliated against by the Qin family and worried, and some people were mocking Lin Muqiang, and there were all kinds of voices.
Lin looked at Qin Wuming, who was covering his left cheek and was indignant, and sneered, "What's the matter?"
Qin Wuming looked at the bodyguard who was wailing after he fell under his feet, and he trembled with fright, his left cheek still hurts.
"You! You wait! It's just your luck today, our Qin family won't let you go!"
Qin Wuming said viciously, but his body made a move to prepare to escape.
As soon as he finished speaking, he rushed directly to the crowd, no matter how embarrassed he was at the moment, he fled the scene like a rabbit.
When they saw him like this, they laughed.
Many people have long been dissatisfied with Qin Wuming's usual rampant and domineering, and at this moment, Lin Mu beat Qin Wuming for them, just to relieve his anger!
When the bodyguards saw that their masters had run away, they also helped each other to stand up and left the scene slowly.
I don't know who started it, and there was a round of applause.
Lin Mu didn't care so much, he walked directly to the old man, stretched out his hand to help the old man on the ground, and asked, "Uncle, why does Qin Wuming have to ask for the ginseng in your hand?"
The old man stood up, with bitter tears in his eyes, sighed, and pointed to the pharmacy behind him, on which were written three large characters.
"Grass and Tree Hall".
From a distance, you can still smell the rich medicinal fragrance emanating from it, and the smell of herbs comes to your nose, but it is also mixed with some other unknown smells, which makes people a little breathless.
The old man choked up and said: "Here's the thing, I was originally Tang Caixu, the owner of this grass and wood hall, it's good if you call me Old Tang, I am also a well-known pharmacy in the vicinity, and I have been trading medicinal materials for many years." ”
Lin Mu nodded thoughtfully.
Tang Caixu sighed, and then said: "This ginseng was bought from the mountain people of Changbai Mountain after spending almost all my savings, and it is very precious!"
As he spoke, Tang Caixu couldn't stop crying again.
"I went all over Qingyang City to treat my son, who was seriously ill at home, and only this century-old ginseng can do. The Qin family didn't know and heard the news that I had a hundred years of ginseng, and Qin Wuming of the Qin family came over with his subordinates early in the morning and forcibly wanted to buy my ginseng. ”
"The most important thing is that they actually paid 10,000 yuan to forcibly buy it! This is a transaction! It is clearly the logic of bandits!"
"I'm not an ordinary little medicinal herb, this is a hundred-year-old ginseng from Changbai Mountain! The price I bought it at the beginning was worth about 50,000 yuan! How could I give it to Qin Wuming for 10,000 yuan!"
As he spoke, Tang Caixu beat his chest angrily, obviously very dissatisfied with what Qin Wu and his party had done, and tears kept falling from his face.
Lin Mu gently patted Tang Caixu's shoulder and comforted: "Boss Tang, this group of people is just a dog. ”
Tang Caixu wiped his tears, held Lin Mu's hand, and said in a trembling voice: "Thank you so much just now! If it weren't for you, my hard-earned ginseng would have fallen into their hands!"
Lin Mu hurriedly said, "It's nothing, then do you want to go back now?"
Tang Caixu waved his hand, but a look of worry appeared on his face, and he grabbed Lin Mu's hand and said, "Child, their Qin family is not a good person, if you beat Qin Wuming today, you will definitely find the revenge of the Qin family." ”
"Listen to my advice, get out of here quickly, it's too unsafe!"
One sentence also made the surrounding crowd start shouting: "Young man, you better run early!"
"Yes, the Qin family is one of the four great clans in Qingyang City! You can't shake them by yourself!"
"Yes, we ordinary people don't want to provoke them, otherwise we will only end up in a dead end!"
"No matter how good your kung fu is, you can beat these dozen ordinary bodyguards, but you can't beat the masters of their Qin family!
There are more and more voices persuading Lin Mu to leave.
Although they admired the courage to act bravely, now was not the time to be reckless, after all, they were also clear about the style of the Qin family, and they were not good people.
Unlike Tang Caixu, who was worried, and the masses, Lin Mu looked indifferent and said calmly: "It's just a Qin family, and I, Lin Mu, haven't taken them into account yet." It's just that this long-lasting hundred-year-old ginseng is precious, and Boss Tang uses it to save people, and it feels ......"
Lin Mu wanted to speak and stopped.
He admitted that he wanted the century-old ginseng in Boss Tang's hand very much, but this was something that people wanted to use to save his son's life, and he couldn't buy it forcibly.
Tang Caixu saw him spitting and spitting, as if he had something to say, so he raised his hand and signaled: "Child, you can follow me into the pharmacy first, it's not easy to discuss on the street." ”
Lin Mu didn't expect that Tang Caixu actually knew what he meant, but since he had been discovered, he had to go into the house to talk.
Lin Mu glanced back at the ghost doctor and asked, "Come in together?"
The ghost doctor didn't say anything, but he followed in.
The layout and internal structure of the entire grass hall are quite quaint, and there are different jars on the wooden shelves, with labels written on them, which should be medicinal herbs, and there are as many as a wall.
It's just that it looks like it's covered in a thin layer of dust, as if no one has cleaned it.
Tang Caixu said embarrassedly: "In order to find herbs before, I didn't clean the pharmacy much, so I dropped some dust, which made you laugh." ”
"It's fine. Lin Mu pinched his nose and waved his hand to get rid of some dust.
Tang Caixu said with a wry smile: "For the sake of my son's illness, I can't take care of anything, and I sold all the valuable things." If it weren't for the worry that there would be no place to live, I'm afraid this shop would have to be sold out. ”
Saying that, Tang Caixu looked at this pharmacy reluctantly, he has been in business for decades and has put a lot of effort into it.
Although it smells a little dusty, some of the medicinal fragrance is still there, and it smells refreshing, as if the pores of the whole body have been opened.
It's just that after smelling it carefully, there will be a strange sour smell, Lin Mu didn't say anything.
Tang Caixu walked in front and said with a wry smile: "People of your age, now it's good to take some Western medicine, and they all discard the essence passed down by our old Chinese medicine, so you just have to believe what pills to take." ”
Lin Mu was suddenly embarrassed and didn't know how to answer, so he remained silent.
The ghost doctor snorted.
"Western medicine is just convenient because it works quickly. The acupuncture and medicinal herbs included in traditional Chinese medicine can be eradicated from ordinary feelings to incurable diseases. And ordinary people rarely grasp it all. ”
