Chapter 517: The Boy Who Sells Medicine

As the largest medical center in Ximeng City, Changxitang has an endless stream of people who come to seek treatment every day, but the shopkeeper of Changxitang has been a little sad these days.

The inventory of several kinds of medicinal materials in the medical hall is insufficient, and if it goes on like this, there will soon be no medicine, but these medicinal materials are all from the Great Zhou, and Lingnan is damp and miasma, and these medicinal materials are rare.

If there is a shortage of medicinal materials, the business of the clinic will definitely be affected, and the income will be reduced.

The master recently asked him to raise money, if the business of the medical hall is not good, how can he raise so much money? The shopkeeper Tian pulled his hair worriedly.

The apprentice ran in from the outside, and the annoyed shopkeeper glared at him, "Nothing to do, isn't it?

The junior apprentice was reprimanded, and he was not annoyed, and ran to the counter with a smile, "Shopkeeper Tian, there is a person outside who said that he came to sell medicinal herbs, and asked if our medical center accepts it?"

Shopkeeper Tian frowned and waved his hand, "Go, go, go to work, don't mess around, when did our medical hall receive the medicinal materials outside?"

Isn't that the past? What is the situation now, still waiting for the medicinal materials to be transported from Da Zhou? The junior apprentice secretly pouted, staring at the big eyes and interrupting the words of the shopkeeper Tian, "But he has nightshade, scopole leaves, and magnolia bark in his hands." ”

"I don't ...... any medicine," Tian reprimanded angrily, and when he heard the words of the junior apprentice clearly, the rest of the words came to an abrupt end, "What did you say?

"Nightshade, scopole leaves, magnolia. The little one grinned and repeated it.

Shopkeeper Tian clapped his hands excitedly, this was really dozing when someone handed over the pillow, "Bring people in, quickly." ”

The apprentice ran out on a kick, and after a while, a thin, fair-skinned boy came in.

The young man's face is delicate, but unfortunately his eyebrows are drooping, and there is a bean-sized mole at the end of the right eyebrow, which destroys his overall physiognomy.

"Do you have nightshade, scopole leaves, and magnolia bark?"

The young man nodded, and his voice was clear, "Well, there are also medicinal materials such as Codonopsis, Astragalus, Atractylodes, and Ginseng." ”

Tian's shopkeeper's eyes lit up, what is most lacking in Changxitang now is the four medicinal materials of nightshade, scopole leaves, magnolia, and ginseng, but I didn't expect this young man to have them on his hands.

"I'll see how it looks, so I can set the price. Shopkeeper Tian did not show that he was in a hurry, but stroked his beard calmly.

When it comes to business, whoever is more eager will have the upper hand.

The young man looked up at the shopkeeper Tian, and his dark eyes were full of crystal brilliance, like dazzling gems, making people feel that his delicate face was a lot more vivid in an instant.

"Is the shopkeeper willing to buy my medicinal herbs?"

Shopkeeper Tian smiled slightly, it seems that he is a new hand, and he hasn't even touched the basic way to do business.

It seems that he can pick up a bargain today, he said with a smile: "I have to see the quality first, if it's good, we will want it in Changxitang." ”

The young man rubbed his hands happily, "Okay, good, the medicinal materials I brought are all good, don't believe it, take a look at the shopkeeper." ”

The young man shouted outside, and a tall, dark-faced man came in from outside, carrying a big bag of blankets, and took out two packets of medicinal herbs from it and handed them over.

When the shopkeeper opened it, he saw that it was magnolia bark and nightshade that had been concocted.

I saw that the magnolia bark was gray-brown in the shape of a double roll, and the scaly cork was scraped off, revealing the purple-brown longitudinal lines inside, and a layer of oil marks appeared when the nails were gently scraped.

Sure enough, it was a good magnolia, Shopkeeper Tian nodded with satisfaction, and glanced at the young man, "What do you call this Langjun?"

The young man waved his hand, his face was a little red, his demeanor was a little restrained, and at first glance he was not a child who often dealt with people, "What am I Langjun, my surname is Luo, and the shopkeeper can call me Xiao Luo." ”

"Xiao Luo, I don't know how you plan to sell this medicinal herb?" Shopkeeper Tian stroked his beard with a smile, and silently estimated the price in his heart.

The young man was stunned for a moment, and turned his head to look at the man behind him with a sack on his back.

The man frowned, and whispered a few words in the young man's ear.

The boy frowned at first, then shook his head again, looking unhappy.

Shopkeeper Tian hooked the corners of his mouth, "How is it, have you discussed?"

The young man paused, turned around, and looked a little embarrassed, before gritting his teeth for a moment, "I want to hear how much the shopkeeper is willing to give?"

Shopkeeper Tian was stunned, what does he mean how much money he is willing to give?

Isn't it true that those who sell things first quote a price, then the buyer bargains, and finally negotiates the price?

Where did this weird boy come from, who didn't even know how to do business?

Let him talk about the price first, he will naturally not say that it is raised, is he willing to sell as much as he says?

Seeing him frowning, the young man seemed to be a little embarrassed, his face turned even redder, and he seemed to scratch his head a little more at a loss.

"Honestly, shopkeeper, this is the first time I have come out to sell medicinal herbs, before, I have not done business before, so, so I ......."

As he spoke, he rubbed his hands subconsciously, and his face became even more embarrassed.

Shopkeeper Tian smiled, and beckoned the young man to sit down with a kind expression, looking at the appearance of this young man, he could indeed see that he was not a regular businessman.

Shopkeeper Tian couldn't help but be curious.

"It turns out that Luo Langjun is going out for business for the first time, looking at your appearance, it doesn't look like you often go out to do business, how can you choose to sell medicinal materials, medicinal materials are not easy to sell." ”

The young man bit his lip and hesitated for a moment before he spoke: "Actually, I didn't come to Lingnan to do business, but to find someone. ”

Shopkeeper Tian raised his eyebrows in surprise.

"In fact, my father has been going back and forth between Da Zhou and Lingnan for many years, selling medicinal materials or goods, two months ago, my father went back from here, and the whole person was unconscious all day long, and he saw all the famous doctors in Da Zhou, but he was helpless. ”

The young man looked sad, "Later, I heard that my father was like this, it seems that he has fallen into the secret art of Lingnan, and if he wants to wake up, he must come to Lingnan to find a famous doctor." ”

"I couldn't bear to see my mother crying every day, and I wanted to save my father, so I brought my subordinates to Lingnan, and when I came, like my father, I brought some medicinal herbs, and there were medicinal herbs to open the way, so as to inquire if there was a name that could cure my father's illness. ”

Shopkeeper Tian understood that this young man was trying to invite a famous Lingnan doctor for his father, and selling medicinal materials was just a name or a stepping stone.

Therefore, he shouldn't care about the price of these medicinal materials, and the shopkeeper Tian silently subtracted one percent from the price he had just set in his heart.

"Shopkeeper, you have been in Ximeng for many years, right? Do you know that the doctor in Lingnan is good at awakening methods? Can you introduce me to one or two?" The young man looked at the shopkeeper Tian with an expectant face.
