Chapter 289: Sweeping the major wholesale markets
Tianxiang Pharmacy is the largest pharmacy in Qingzhou, famous for its many medicines, especially the traditional Chinese medicine here, the usual pharmacy only has one or two hundred flavors, and the larger one has three or four hundred flavors, while Tianxiang Pharmacy has more than eight hundred flavors.
A large truck stopped outside the door, Li Dong stepped down from the car, glanced at the unicorn stone statues on the left and right sides outside the pharmacy door, and walked in without hesitation.
"Big sister. Li Dong came to the counter and shouted as he looked at a middle-aged woman standing inside.
The middle-aged woman had just finished grabbing the medicine, so she came to Li Dong and said, "Prescription." "When she comes here, she basically grabs the medicine according to the prescription, and the prescription written by the hand of the Chinese medicine doctor is usually the dragon flying and the phoenix dance, which is not something that ordinary people can understand, so she is used to asking for the prescription directly.
"Ahem, there's no cure. Li Dong said, after all, he didn't come to buy medicinal materials to make magic medicine today, but ......
Hearing Li Dong's words, the middle-aged woman was stunned, what are you doing here without a prescription? Oh, by the way, the people who come here, in addition to the people who buy medicinal materials according to the prescription, there is another kind, that is, some health recipes are seen on the Internet from books, and they come here to buy the medicinal materials needed to make vegetable stew, for example, some like to put some codonopsis, wolfberry, astragalus and other medicinal materials in the scald.
"What kind of soup to make?" asked the middle-aged woman, as a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, who is exposed to Chinese medicinal materials all day long, and still has a certain amount of research on making health soup, otherwise her skin would not be so good.
"Soup?" Li Dong was stunned when he heard it, he looked at the middle-aged woman strangely, and then looked at the medicinal herb cabinet behind the middle-aged woman, isn't this a pharmacy, has it been changed to a restaurant?" ”
"Make tea?"
"No!"
"Then what are you doing here?" This time it was the turn of the middle-aged woman to be strange, neither to grab medicine, nor to make soup and tea, did she come here to find a job?
"Buy medicinal herbs. Li Dong licked his tongue and said, he was a little hungry when the other party said.
"How do you buy medicinal herbs without a prescription?" Remember?" the middle-aged woman asked, "Young man, I have to make it clear to you, the prescription is to be proportioned according to a strict weight, and only after boiling it can it have an effect, if you remember it wrong, not only will the effect of the medicine change, but it will even have side effects on the body, don't think that young people have a good memory and don't think they need it, the prescription is generally more than a dozen Chinese herbal medicines, can you remember it? Or go back and write a copy and come over." ”
"Eldest sister, I'll buy medicinal herbs, but don't be so troublesome, you can just give me three yuan for all the Chinese medicinal materials in your Tianxiang Pharmacy. ”
"All the herbs?what?what are you talking about?" The middle-aged woman looked at the young man in front of her with wide eyes and surprise, is this kid here to tease her?"
Li Dong knew what the other party meant, so he nodded seriously and said, "Yes, eldest sister, you heard it right, it's all kinds of medicinal herbs." ”
The middle-aged woman was stunned for a while before she came back to her senses, and asked in a stumbling voice, "What are you buying so many Chinese medicinal herbs for?" This thing is not a small food, and it cannot be eaten casually. ”
"I know. Li Dong said, it seems that the situation is not explained, the eldest sister can't sell it, "Eldest sister, in fact, I am a pharmacist, and I run a pharmacy at home, in order to learn more things, so Tianxiang bought Chinese medicinal materials here and bought them back for research and study." ”
"Oh?" the middle-aged woman looked suddenly realized, "Okay, then I'll catch you now, all right?" ”
"The small ones are three dollars, and the big ones are grabbed according to the lowest amount. Li Dong said, anyway, it's to do the task, it doesn't matter how much it weighs, as long as you have it.
"Okay, you wait. The middle-aged woman said, then turned around with the scale, and when she saw the rows of Chinese herbal medicine cabinets in front of her, she suddenly felt like she didn't know where to start.
In the past, I came to grab the medicine, at most more than 30 flavors, this one in front of me is good, more than 800 kinds of all want, it seems that there is no need to look everywhere, just weigh it from beginning to end, so I went to the far left and began to weigh a medicine drawer and a medicine drawer.
Li Dong stood in front of the counter, waited for more than ten minutes, and just weighed more than 80 kinds of Chinese medicinal materials, and it seemed that he couldn't finish weighing them for a while, so he walked to the waiting area and sat down and waited slowly.
Ten minutes, twenty minutes, thirty minutes......
The people waiting to catch the medicine in the pharmacy were stunned, although Tianxiang Pharmacy is a big store, but there are only four people who are responsible for catching the medicine, and those who were behind Li Dong before thought that it would be their turn soon, so they could wait for a while, and they were speechless.
What's the situation?
Why haven't you caught it yet?
It seems that dozens of species have been caught, how can they still be caught?
In the next few rows, the last row has already been caught and left, and this row has not yet started to be caught.
But once you are gone, what should you do when you finish catching this side? Isn't the time spent waiting in vain?
"Well, doctor, how long will it take to catch it?"
The middle-aged eldest sister glanced back at the medicine cabinet, "I don't know, if it's fast, it's an hour or two." ”
“……”
The people in line here are all speechless, and it's going to take an hour or two? And fast?
Everyone silently turned around and walked to the other platoons to stand in line, standing at the end of the other platoons, and waited for ten or twenty minutes at most, one or two hours? Is this a medicine to cure diseases? This is simply to refine the elixir of immortality.
Some people who just came in and didn't know the truth thought that they had picked up a bargain, so they hurriedly stood in front of the middle-aged woman, "Doctor, grab the medicine, this is the prescription." ”
"Well, wait a minute. The middle-aged woman said.
The crowd who didn't know the truth nodded, and then looked at the other rows, I really don't understand, obviously there is a doctor here, but everyone has to go to the side row.
Five minutes, ten minutes, twenty minutes......
The masses who didn't know the truth finally understood, silently picked up the prescription, and stood at the end of the other rows.
I don't know how long it took, Li Dongzheng was still silently reading "Wancao Ji" in his mind, and he felt that someone was pushing him, he looked up and saw that it was a white coat, the other party stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of the counter, and saw a middle-aged woman waving to him.
"Young man, it's all here. The middle-aged woman pointed to the boxes on the ground, eight boxes, full of them, each box containing more than a hundred medicinal herbs.
The middle-aged woman shook her arms and twisted her waist, and after the full name of the eight hundred kinds, she almost died of exhaustion.
"Thank you, eldest sister!" Li Dong paid the money, hugged the box and walked out, and the eight boxes were loaded into the big truck, which is why he didn't drive the off-road vehicle, because, it couldn't fit at all.
Although he has a backpack, he can't show it in front of outsiders, just like these eight boxes, if they are gone with a wave of his hand, the people inside still don't think he's going to see a ghost?
Li Dong drove the truck and left Tianxiang Pharmacy, he did not return to Dongshan, this is only 832 flavors, and it is still far from 2,000 flavors, so he drove to the next place...... Qingzhou non-staple food wholesale market.
He parked the car, picked the largest stall, and handed a piece of paper to the salesman, "These are the same for five dollars." ”
When the salesman saw it, he was stupid, and saw hundreds of condiments densely written on the paper, such as peppercorns, spices, cloves, cinnamon, cumin......
An hour later, Li Dong left the non-staple food wholesale market and came to his next destination, the Qingzhou Vegetable Wholesale Market.
"Boss, the dishes on the list are worth a pound for each. ”
The boss turned out to be bold, and his face was speechless, only to see that there were more than 100 kinds of vegetables written on it: celery, hair cabbage, cabbage, lentils, wife, green onions, garlic......
An hour later, Qingzhou Fruit Wholesale Market.
"Boss, these fruits, the same ......"
Sydney, apples, bananas, grapefruit, mangoes, papayas...... None of them cannot be used in medicine.
