Chapter 0044 - Lack of Money, Lack of Money!
(In the new week, I ask for a recommendation ticket and collect it!) )
After grasping the medicinal materials, the old man happened to come out and put a small red fruit into the medicinal materials, but this small red fruit made Xiao Chen's eyes condense, and his heart turned up a stormy wave!
Because, he is very familiar with this little fruit, and he just saw it yesterday! This little fruit is the kind of fruit that Ye Xiaoye put in the refrigerator! Yesterday, Xiao Chen was a little strange about what it was, why did Ye Xiaoye put a fruit in it when he was boiling medicine, but today he found out that this thing is called Kuji Fruit!
Tsk, this Ye Xiaoye, he is really a rich man, can he afford such expensive medicinal materials? I don't know what the medicinal soup she brewed is for?
"Grandpa, what kind of prescription is this bitter fruit usually used for?" Xiao Chen asked quietly.
"I don't use much, only some special-purpose prescriptions will be used, but if you don't sue me, I won't sue you." The old man smiled at Xiao Chen, a look you want to know? I don't tell you the way you look.
Xiao Chen was a little speechless for a moment, he didn't expect this old man to hold a grudge, but he was helpless, he couldn't expose his secrets for his own curiosity, right?
So, Xiao Chen didn't say anything more, picked up the wrapped medicinal herbs, and walked out of the pharmacy quickly.
When Xiao Chen left, Hong Yan turned her head to look at the old man: "Grandpa Chen, what is this bitter fruit?" How come I've never heard of it? ”
"Miss Yan, because this bitter fruit is not very common, and people who buy medicine can't use it, so I didn't put it out." The old man's name for Hong Yan has actually changed, if Xiao Chen is present, he will be extremely surprised, it turns out that this old man and Hong Yan are not the relationship between grandfather and granddaughter, and the old man's surname is Chen, and Hong Yan's surname is Hong!
"Oh? That person bought it just now, ......" Hong Yan was a little puzzled: "Grandpa Chen, what is the use of this bitter fruit?" ”
"I don't know what the specific use is, perhaps, this thing is not something that I have access to at this level in the first place." Grandpa Chen said with a wry smile.
"Grandpa Chen, it turns out that you lied to him before?" Hong Yan looked at the old man a little strangely, the old man wanted to set Xiao Chen's words before, but he didn't expect that Grandpa Chen didn't know the purpose of the bitter fruit.
"Hehe, I can't say that I can't lie, at least I know that there are a few prescriptions that require bitter fruit, but the specific purpose of these prescriptions, I don't know!" Grandpa Chen said: "The prescription that the young man brought before, I have seen a few of the medicinal herbs in other prescriptions, because I have never known the purpose of this prescription, so I want to ask." ”
"I see." Hong Yan nodded: "Grandpa Chen is really a profiteer!" ”
"Haha, Miss Yan, do our business, do interests come first!" Grandpa Chen said with a smile.
"Then why did Grandpa Chen give him a discount?" Hong Yan felt a little incredible.
"It's kind of an investment." Grandpa Chen said.
Hong Yan nodded as if she didn't understand.
Xiao Chen was carrying a bag of priceless medicine bags, and the pockets on his body were directly deflated, leaving more than two hundred yuan, all of which were given by the eldest lady, these money, Xiao Chen could only save money, Xiao Chen originally wanted to go to the electrical store to buy an electric casserole for boiling medicine, but as soon as he saw the price of two hundred and ninety-nine, the corners of Xiao Chen's mouth twitched, he didn't have enough money to buy, so he could only discuss with Ye Xiaoye after going back, whether he could borrow her electric casserole for his own use.
"Elder God, this prescription you gave me is too expensive, isn't it?" Xiao Chen said with a wry smile.
"Who knows what prices are like right now? Also, I rarely buy anything in the world. "Tian Lao didn't expect that the medicinal materials he listed would cost so much, which made Xiao Chen so embarrassed!
"Forget it, it looks like I have to find a way to make some money, and now I just bought a pair and went bankrupt, which is still a long way from the fifth pair!" Xiao Chen sighed, to be honest, Xiao Chen had no concept of this money at all in the past, but now, it is really difficult for a penny to defeat a hero!
It's not that Xiao Chen didn't want to borrow from Zhu Hero, it's just that Xiao Chen knows Zhu Hero better, this guy usually doesn't have much pocket money, although if Xiao Chen speaks, Zhu Hero will definitely do everything he can to help Xiao Chen, but Zhu Hero will definitely ask Xiao Chen what to do with the money, and Xiao Chen doesn't want to deceive his good brother at that time, so he can only give up for the time being.
"Xiao Chenzi, this is not a problem with the five pairs, these five pairs of medicines are only required to be taken before the third layer of the Qi Refining Period, and there will be more after that, and the medicinal materials will be even rarer, and the price will probably be more expensive!" "The most important thing is whether you can buy it or not is another matter!" ”
"Won't it?" Xiao Chen was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly, it seems that his road to poverty has just begun!
This made Xiao Chen feel that he should do something, and Zhu Hero borrowed money, and he could borrow it once, but he couldn't borrow money endlessly, right? Let's not talk about whether there are so many heroes, even if I wish heroes once and don't ask twice, and don't ask three times?
With a depressed face, Xiao Chen walked into the classroom, and it took some time to buy medicinal herbs before, so Xiao Chen almost stepped on the class bell and walked into the classroom.
Originally, Lou Zhenming was quite surprised to see that Xiao Chen did not come today, and then there was excited speculation, could the evil wolf be killed by someone who killed Xiao Chen first before being killed by someone who was "righteous and courageous"?
Thinking about this possibility, it is not impossible, as for not finding Xiao Chen's body, I am afraid that the evil wolf has already disposed of the body, and it is impossible to find it in a short time, but now Xiao Chen appeared in the classroom intact, which made Lou Zhenming originally have a fluke of excitement, and suddenly it was as if he had been poured cold water!
"Damn, this kid is all right?" Lou Zhenming muttered with a gloomy face.
"It seems that this kid has a great fortune, Brother Ming, this matter can only be endured first." There is no good way for the thin monkey, after all, the word has been released, and the matter of Ma Gangmen is just settled, and it is impossible to trouble Xiao Chen in the short term.
"Forget it, don't study this hillbilly, how is the planning of the hero's rescue of beauty?" Lou Zhenming asked.
"I told Ma Gangchuang, and he also said that he would cooperate, but that kid was stunned, I was afraid that he would be stunned at that time, but with me on the side, there shouldn't be any big problem." "The most important problem now is that we don't have a chance!" ”
"No chance? What chances? Lou Zhenming was stunned.
"Brother Ming, it's an opportunity to rob, Cheng Mengying now goes to and from school every day, with Jin Beibei, and it's driving, how can we rob? If you stop the car, Jin Beibei's tiger girl may really dare to kill us! "The thin monkey doesn't dare to stop Jin Beibei's car, he hasn't lived enough!
Lou Zhenming nodded, he didn't blame the thin monkey for being timid, but Jin Beibei really dared to do this! If you hit it, you will kill it, and you can't find a place to reason with it! The robber was killed in a robbery, and you still want to be reasonable? If you find the Jin family, not only will you admit that the robbers were found by Lou Zhenming, but also the old man Jin may not be reasonable, with the character of the old man Jin, hacking Lou Zhenming to death is also a vain death!
"Look for a chance, don't worry." Lou Zhenming pondered for a while and said: "I don't believe it, Jin Beibei will follow Cheng Mengying every day in the future, there will always be a chance!" You get the horse steel window ready, and you can be on call. ”
"Okay, Brother Ming." The thin monkey nodded.
Cheng Mengying watched Xiao Chen walk into the classroom very late, and a look of suspicion flashed in her eyes, where did this guy go? You won't go to Tang Tang again, will you? But seeing that Tang Tang has already come, it is impossible.
"Cousin Mengying, are you thinking about your brother-in-law?" Kim Beibei asked, eating a lollipop.
"yes, why did you think he came so late?" Cheng Mengying said subconsciously, but after finishing speaking, she hurriedly changed her words: "Who would miss him?" Love doesn't come! ”
"Sister Mengying's duplicity!" Jin Beibei smiled and said, "Don't hit me, I understand." ”
Cheng Mengying's raised hand fell helplessly, glared at Jin Beibei, and said, "Eat your lollipop well!" ”
"Why are you here so late?" Tang Tang is also very strange, if you want to say that Xiao Chen got up late, it is impossible, Cheng Mengying came earlier than her, it is impossible for Xiao Chen not to get up.
"Coming." Xiao Chen smiled bitterly and said.
"Coming? No way? You run out of money? Tang Tang suddenly thought of the reason: "You won't be so poor just because you invited us to a buffet yesterday, right?" Don't even have the money to ride the bus? ”
"It's not that bad, that's it, I just want to save a little." Xiao Chen said: "By the way, Tang Tang, do you have any way to make money?" ”
"You want to make money?" Tang Tang was slightly stunned, he didn't expect Xiao Chen to start running out of money so soon, but after thinking about it, he lowered his voice and said, "Three meals a day, you don't need much money, right?" Don't be busy, study with peace of mind, you are a young master, you are not a hard-working material, I will help you solve breakfast and lunch, Cheng Mengying can't be hungry for dinner, right? ”
Xiao Chen took out the medicine bag in his pocket, shook it in front of Tang Tang, and told a white lie: "I have been weak since I was a child, and I can't cultivate internal strength, you know, right?" I have to take a lot of decoction every month, and this is a lot of money to start, and if I don't make money, I'm afraid I can't afford it. ”
Tang Tang suddenly realized that the news that Xiao Chen had been frail and sick since he was a child was not a secret, so she was not surprised: "I see, you can't buy medicine, you don't need much money, right?" A thousand pieces is enough, right? I gritted my teeth, saved a little, and came out......"
Although Tang Tang said that he didn't care, he was thinking in his heart, starting tomorrow, he would have to get up earlier and prepare more materials for soy milk and fried fritters, otherwise she would not have much money left after removing the rent and expenses in a month, and Xiao Chen's medicine fee of 1,000 yuan would really make her stretched.
