Jiang Xiaomiao's second day was awakened by a medicinal fragrance, He Xiuxiu got up very early and used the stove she bought yesterday to make a bowl of tonic soup for Jiang Xiaomiao, which was specially explained by Tu Guan. Tu Guan felt that Jiang Xiaomiao was too thin, so he specially asked the familiar medicine customer for some herbs to warm Jiang Xiaomiao.

After drinking tonic soup and eating a simple breakfast, Jiang Xiaomiao went to report to the Tu manager, and before leaving, she did not forget to explain that Jiang Xiaohua was going to the market to pick her up and go home in the evening. Steward Tu specially told the kitchen to prepare Jiang Xiaomiao's lunch and dinner, and let her eat in the pharmacy, which can be regarded as giving Jiang Xiaomiao a new identity, she is no longer the partner to accept alms, and Shuyuge did not raise her in vain.

After Jiang Xiaomiao finished eating lunch, he would go to the bazaar to buy some medicinal herbs and sell them to Shuyu Pavilion to earn money to make cotton jackets. The fragmentary silver given by the Tu steward is sixteen taels and five yuan, and three taels are deducted, and the time comes, the thirteen taels and five coins of silver must be returned to the Tu steward. In order to thank Tu Guan for his help, he should buy something to honor him, otherwise he will not be able to get over it. Jiang Xiaomiao must be careful to ensure that this capital can generate sufficient profits.

The two medicinal herbs that brought the aura yesterday immediately became inferior when they arrived in the grape ball, and the aura was consumed by the little cat demon between breaths. Thinking of this, Jiang Xiaomiao felt that her scalp was numb. Being a cat demon breeder is challenging, but this is a big project to burn silver, forcing her to work hard to make money and hunt for treasure.

After walking around the market, Jiang Xiaomiao had already bought seven or eight taels of silver for various colored mushrooms and some ordinary herbs. When she learned that because of the good weather today, the next group of people who would enter the mountain would not appear until about an hour later, she decisively decided to make a little money first.

After Jiang Xiaomiao carefully sorted the things he had purchased, he selected some excellent mountain delicacies and inferior medicinal materials to be sold first. The rest of the mountain treasures were basked in an open space, and together with the high-grade medicinal materials, they all asked the big brother of the head snake to help watch them. Jiang Xiaomiao turned around and trotted all the way to the market outside Sanli Road, where there were shops buying mountain treasures and pharmacies buying ordinary medicinal materials.

When she returned to the market, she sold all her belongings and put them in the grape balls. Shan Zhen naturally made money, and the inferior medicinal materials lost a few pennies slightly on the price of flat push. In general, I made a whole silver tael. She was satisfied, and sure enough, it was better to do business than sell labor. Fortunately, she followed the cook to meet the people of a few shops, otherwise others would definitely not be so kind to her as a strange little girl, and bought her goods at a normal price.

Returning to the stall area again, Jiang Xiaomiao's harvest will be great. After two days of study, she can recognize all the herbs on the stall, and when she encounters the goods she wants to buy, she does not take the initiative to say the price, so she lets the seller make her own price, and she strives to reduce the price to the lowest transaction price. When Jiang Xiaohua came to pick her up, Jiang Xiaomiao spent all the money on her body and turned it into dozens of catties of goods.

The things that Jiang Xiaomiao purchased were divided into two parts, one was mountain delicacies and wild vegetables, and the other was medicinal herbs. The medicinal materials were classified again, and she knew that Shuyu Pavilion would not accept defective products, and she didn't plan to bring back the medicines that were not of the same grade. Jiang Xiaomiao paid attention to those medicine customers who went to deliver the goods, those medicine customers basically did not dig up worthless medicinal materials, sometimes the medicinal materials were mixed with worthless herbs, and when they lined up, they were directly thrown to the Ni Jin Beast who was the gatekeeper of Shuyu Pavilion to eat. The golden beast looked loyal, but it was still a bit cunning, and if you gave it something to eat, it would make people cut in line.

In order to deal with the worthless herbs and the mountain delicacies that must be kept fresh, Jiang Xiaomiao left Jiang Xiaohua to look at things, and he hired a donkey to go to the shop three miles away again. After some trading, Jiang Xiaomiao exchanged another ** two silver coins, she left five taels of silver alone, and handed over the equipment money tomorrow, and the remaining little money is considered a reserve fund, and the excess money can be used as capital.

Because of running back and forth like this, a lot of time was delayed, and it was already quite late when Jiang Xiaomiao returned to Tu Steward to help, so in the end, he delayed the help. She directly handed over the medicinal materials to Tu Guan to set the price, which was not bad, all the medicinal materials added up to be worth twenty taels of silver.

Steward Tu gave Jiang Xiaomiao a pair of cards to go to the account office to get money, and she began to help with some weakness. After being busy for a while, Jiang Xiaohua also came with a basket, just now Jiang Xiaomiao spent money to bring medicinal herbs to come in a donkey cart, Jiang Xiaohua was reluctant to spend more money on her sister, so she came over. She was carrying the basket that Jiang Xiaomiao got yesterday, which was full of wet mushrooms, mountain vegetables and so on. Behind him was a big linen backpack, which Jiang Xiaomiao had collected in the afternoon, and he had also sun-dried mushrooms and wild vegetables.

Jiang Xiaohua's image at the moment is very wolf, in a word, just like a flower child, Jiang Xiaomiao feels very embarrassed. Unexpectedly, the embarrassing thing was still to come, Jiang Xiaohua said loudly: "Miao Miao, you want to share a little of the money you make, I want to buy a squirrel." The man bullied me, and a squirrel asked me for ten taels of silver, and asked me to buy the medicinal herbs that the squirrel had bitten. ”

As soon as Jiang Xiaohua shouted this, everyone's eyes were focused on her, and many people showed expressions of disgust. Jiang Xiaohua didn't feel ashamed, but Jiang Xiaomiao's face was flushed. Jiang Xiaohua, Jiang Xiaohua, you are eleven years old this year, and you are almost a big girl, can you pay attention to your image and behavior, if you continue like this, normal men will not look down on you.

Steward Tu also frowned when he saw Jiang Xiaomiao's sister like this, and said to Jiang Xiaomiao: "You go and take a look, stay for a while, and finish everything before leaving." ”

Jiang Xiaomiao agreed, and followed Jiang Xiaohua out of the house, only to see two people standing at the end of the queue to hand over the medicinal materials, it seemed that they should be two brothers. One of the two brothers carries a bamboo stick to which a squirrel-like animal is tied. The squirrel-like animal, with its four paws bound with rattan and strung on a bamboo stick, its fur disheveled and bloodstained, looked pitiful. The brother who didn't take the bamboo stick seemed to hate the squirrel to the core, and whipped it with a rattan stick, and said viciously: "Evil animal, don't give a few taels of silver today, and I will stew you." ”

The squirrel seemed to understand the man's words, and squeaked, with tears in his eyes. Jiang Xiaohua saw that the man was beating a squirrel, and as soon as he changed his stupid appearance of being comfortable eating in the past, he actually cried with a whimper, took Jiang Xiaomiao's hand and said: "Sister, please, didn't you make money, buy this squirrel, it's too pitiful." ”

Jiang Xiaomiao felt that something was wrong with her sister, there must be something wrong with this squirrel, but at this moment, the Emperor of the Heaven Turning Heaven couldn't communicate with her, and there must be cultivators in the pharmaceutical workshop behind her. So is this squirrel to be bought, or not?

Jiang Xiaohua saw Jiang Xiaomiao's hesitation at this moment, she didn't stop doing it, and immediately splashed and rolled on the ground, making the medicine customers in line disdainful. Jiang Xiaomiao finally understood by now, it must have been the squirrel that controlled Jiang Xiaohua. In order to save my sister, I can only buy the squirrel, and it is a big deal to release it immediately, and it should not be able to turn the sky. No matter what kind of demon beast it is, it must not be very powerful if it can be tossed like that, and it must be saved by such a curve.

Jiang Xiaomiao immediately kicked Jiang Xiaohua twice when she thought of this, and then said: "Get up immediately, shut up, don't cry, don't make trouble, otherwise you won't buy it." ”

Not to mention, Jiang Xiaohua got up immediately as soon as she heard this, and Jiang Xiaomiao began to talk to the two brothers who caught the squirrel about the conditions. The two brothers saw that although Jiang Xiaomiao was young, he had a faint temperament of a superior, and the people around them reminded them that this was a new little apprentice in charge of Tu.

The two brothers were a little afraid that Jiang Xiaomiao would deal with them in the future, and one of the elder brothers said: "Wild things that can eat medicinal herbs must have some aura." The squirrel was older, and he didn't have much meat, and his fur was not good, and even so, the price of ten taels of silver was indispensable. And it got into our medicine basket to steal it, and a few medicinal herbs were bitten off, and it was also a matter of one or two taels of silver, but the basket leaked, and there were a lot of medicinal herbs dropped along the way. Our brother's hard work in the day, which could have been exchanged for thirty or fifty taels of silver, is now less than twenty taels, how can this be calculated? ”

Jiang Xiaomiao couldn't stand it when he heard it, the squirrel was ten taels of silver, and he had to pay about twenty or thirty taels of silver for medicinal materials, all his belongings were so much, and there was still borrowed capital in it, all of which were used to buy squirrels, and he had no chance to make money.

Jiang Xiaohua, who was controlled by the squirrel, saw Jiang Xiaomiao's eyes, and couldn't help but cry immediately, this cry is the poor kind, crying Jiang Xiaomiao's heart is messed up, and finally she has no choice, take out the pair of cards she just got and say: "I have so much silver in my hand, you can sell it if you want to, and there is no way if you don't want to." Thief who steals something to eat, you are willing to stew or roast it, anyway, it's not my loss. ”

Seeing the decisiveness in Jiang Xiaomiao's eyes, the two brothers were also a little timid, and in the end, the elder brother took the pair of cards, handed the squirrel tied to the bamboo stick to Jiang Xiaomiao, and then handed Jiang Xiaomiao a few medicinal herbs that the squirrel had bitten and said: "This is also yours, and it is worthless if it is bitten." ”

Jiang Xiaomiao unceremoniously took over these medicinal herbs, threw them to Jiang Xiaohua and said: "Take the squirrel away, let it finish eating the medicinal herbs and get out, don't spend my money next time, otherwise I will pick its skin and make a fur collar with my own hands." ”

Jiang Xiaohua was obviously frightened by Jiang Xiaomiao's domineering, so she quickly picked up the squirrel, picked up a few medicinal herbs and put them in the basket, and ran away with a big backpack. Jiang Xiaomiao felt sorry for the silver at the moment, "Nima, I worked hard to earn more than a dozen taels of silver today, and the result was to work for a squirrel demon, and the capital will not be enough tomorrow, and I will have to work for the squirrel demon for at least two days to save the capital of Tu Guan." This luck is really a bit back. ”
