Chapter 41 Buying Medicinal Herbs
Zhao Qi took Xiao Jiejie around the place near his home again, and then went home.
After returning home, Xiao Jiejie's eyebrows danced and told Zhao Qi's heroic deeds to a few adults, but he didn't know too many words, and he didn't speak very neatly. The adults could only hear that Zhao Qi had a big fight after being bullied because of Xiao Jiejie, and cleaned up several people.
"Good job, worthy of my nephew." The brother-in-law is also similar to Zhao Qi's eldest uncle in this regard, although he is not a gangster, but his temper is the same as Jiang Xian's. After hearing that his daughter was bullied, Zhao Qi fought and taught the children a lesson, and shouted excitedly, "My nephew is like an uncle."
It's a pity that Sun Jun didn't know that Zhao Qi not only beat three children, but also three seventeen or eighteen-year-old boys.
In the first month, Zhao Qi kept following his parents to pay New Year's greetings.
Today is the eighth day of the first lunar month, and the day after tomorrow, that is, the tenth day of the first lunar month, Zhao Qi will rush to the provincial capital with Comrade Lao Zhao. The purpose of going to the provincial capital is to pay New Year's greetings to a person. This person is Zhao Qi's father's most iron-clad friend in his life, Zhao Mu in his previous life had to go to the provincial capital almost every year to get together with that old friend, and this year's time is set for the tenth day of the first month.
After eating at noon, Zhao Qi's family went out, the difference was that this time Zhao Qi and them were not all the way. Song Xia, Zhao Mu and Zhao Ranran were going to visit a distant relative's house at the other end of the county, and Zhao Qi went to do his own thing alone after finding many excuses.
However, because of Zhao Qi's good performance all the time, Zhao Mu and Song Xia did not object, but just asked him to be careful at home alone, not to run around and so on.
As soon as the three of them left, Zhao Qi went out with a big bag.
Zhao Qi first came to the people's pharmacy that he had just stepped on some time ago.
"Kid, do you want to buy any medicine?" The pharmacy opened for the first day today, and after the rush of buying medicine in the morning passed, the afternoon seemed much more deserted. Dr. Yu Yuan saw Zhao Qi, a child less than ten years old, wandering around the pharmacy for a long time, so he asked out loud.
"Hello Auntie, I'm here to buy Chinese medicine." Zhao Qi called sweetly at the doctor who seemed to be easier to speak.
"Hehe, okay. You're going to help your mom and dad buy medicine, right? What kind of medicine do I need? "I have to say that Zhao Qi's cute tactics have achieved some success.
"Auntie, I'm not here to help my parents buy medicine, I'm here to help my grandfather buy medicine. Grandpa was sick, but it was not convenient for him to buy medicine, so he wrote down all the medicinal materials he needed on this piece of paper and asked me to come and buy them. As he spoke, Zhao Qi lowered his head slightly as if he had thought of something, and his expression was gloomy.
Listening to the words of the child in front of him, Zhao Yuan naturally sketched a picture in his mind.
In a dilapidated house, the young Zhao Qi lost his parents since he was a child and lived with his elderly grandfather, but the elderly grandfather himself was old and sick. The grandfather, who couldn't get out of bed and walk, had to hand over the responsibility of buying medicine to the child in front of him, who was less than ten years old......
I have to say that the woman's imagination is very exaggerated, and Zhao Qi looked at the female doctor in front of him who was about to cry.
"Little friend, you must be strong!"
“……”
Yu Yuan took the paper in Zhao Qi's hand and looked at the medicinal materials on it strangely.
"Kid, are you sure that your grandfather wrote this piece of paper to you?"
"yes, I'll come over after Grandpa finished writing."
The medicinal materials on this piece of paper are not strange, the strange thing is that the types of medicinal materials are basically about to include all the Chinese medicinal materials in this pharmacy. Yu Yuan couldn't figure out what kind of disease this sick old man had, and he needed so many kinds of medicinal materials. However, the handwriting on it is indeed handwritten by an adult.
"Children, although the amount of each medicinal material is not much, but the amount added together is not light, can you handle it alone?"
"Don't worry, Auntie, I have a lot of strength, and I can handle it in multiple ways." Yu Yuan looked at the optimistic child in front of him, and his heart was once again moved. I dare to say that I have a lot of strength, and I must have done a lot of heavy work compared to before. Seven-year-old boy!
Zhao Qi scratched his head, and the doctor in front of him had an expression of almost crying.
Yu Yuan wrapped each herb in paper and carefully wrote the name of the herb on the back of the paper to prevent mistakes.
The amount is indeed a lot, and the big bag brought by Zhao Qi is full.
Zhao Qi tried the weight, it weighed almost more than 20 pounds, and after paying again, he put his hands on his back, carried the whole burden behind his back, and went home.
And the sentimental doctor behind him was still chattering
"What a good boy, you must be strong!"
“……”
After returning home, Zhao Qi first put a large bag of things under his bed. Then I picked up another bag that was slightly smaller and went out again.
"When you come back, you have to set up a formation, otherwise these medicinal materials will be left on the ground for too long and will cause dampness and loss of medicinal surnames."
The next stop is naturally Zhao Qi's long-awaited "Caiyuxuan". With the improvement of Zhao Qi's cultivation, the "jade" he got from his uncle's house that time could no longer meet Zhao Qi's cultivation needs. And the arrangement of high-level formations or the later making of weapons, alchemy, etc., all require a large amount of jade.
Therefore, getting a large amount of jade is one of Zhao Qi's biggest goals at the beginning of this year. If you go to your uncle's house to find jade again, it will take a lot of time, not to mention, just tossing back and forth is enough for Zhao Qi, not to mention that you have to find a way to explain to your parents what you got a lot of stones for.
The boss of "Cai Yuxuan" is surnamed Wang, although his hometown is in Jin County, he has not grown up in Jin County since he was a child, and he has always been doing small business outside. After getting older, Boss Wang didn't want to run around outside without a fixed place anymore, so he closed a shop outside, returned to his hometown, and opened this "Caiyuxuan".
In the big cities outside, the jade business has always been profitable, but in the small county town of Jinxian, how is the business? Lao Wang still doesn't have a score in his heart.
However, for Boss Wang, making money is second, and pension is put first, as long as this store does not lose money, it doesn't matter if you make a little less. Of course, it's better if you can make money, after all, no one thinks they have a lot of money.

Today, the third watch is over.
