Early in the morning of the second day, Li Bing'er prepared a nest head and a kettle for Li Lao and Chen Qun early, and after Chen Qun said goodbye to Li Bing'er, he went out of Luoyang City with Li Lao, each carrying a basket on his back, and went to Beibi Mountain in the northern part of Luoyang City to collect medicine.

Chen Qun had no impression of Beibi Mountain at all, because he had never been to Luoyang in his previous life, so he was not clear about the geography and topography of Luoyang. It wasn't until he walked with Li Lao for an hour that he came to the foot of Beibi Mountain that he had a general impression of Beibi Mountain.

Beibi Mountain didn't look very tall, but it couldn't be seen at a glance, and Li Lao said to Chen Qun at this time: "Qun'er, there are many medicinal materials on Beibi Mountain, if you are lucky, maybe there will be a good harvest today." ”

Chen Qun nodded excitedly: "Okay!" Grandpa, let's hurry up the mountain! ”

After Chen Qun finished speaking, he took the lead along the mountain road to the mountain, but after a quarter of an hour forward, Chen Qun suddenly stopped and looked at Li Lao behind him, Li Lao had collected more than ten medicinal materials at this time, and Chen Qun looked at Li Lao collecting medicinal materials behind him, and then realized that he didn't know medicinal materials at all, so he ran to Li Lao's side and smiled: "Grandpa, I thought that there were medicinal materials only in the depths of the mountain range, but I didn't expect that there were them on the side of the road, but I don't know medicinal materials!" ”

Hearing this, Li Lao smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't know each other, you can collect it after we find the nest of medicinal herbs, and you don't need it now." ”

Chen Qun smiled when he heard this: "Okay! ”

Chen Qun no longer walked in front this time, but followed Li Lao's side to carefully watch Li Lao's search for medicinal materials,......。

In this way, when the sun was about to set, Li Lao and Chen Qun carried a basket of medicinal materials down the mountain, Chen Qun and Li Lao were lucky, they came across two small nests of medicinal materials, and after carefully digging the medicinal materials, they filled two large baskets, and then rushed down the mountain before the sun set.

There was nothing to say all the way, the medicinal materials did not carry soil, and they were not very heavy, so Chen Qun and Li Lao carried a basket of medicinal materials down the mountain. Chen Qun was worried that there would suddenly be robbers on the road, and then how he would be heroic, but the situation he imagined did not appear, until he came to the Luoyang City Gate, Chen Qun smiled self-deprecatingly and said: The life of the people is always simple, how can there be so many encounters, it is because he thinks too much.

After returning to Luoyang City, Li Lao directly took Chen Qun to the shop that collected medicinal materials, and Chen Qun didn't realize what Li Lao was going to do until he came to the door of the medicinal herb shop, and hurriedly stopped Li Lao: "Grandpa, let's go back first!" ”

Hearing this, Li Lao suddenly understood what Chen Qun meant, nodded silently at the moment, and then took Chen Qun out of the door of the medicinal herb shop, Chen Qun waited away from the medicinal herb shop before saying to Li Lao: "Grandpa, these two baskets of medicinal materials will be handed over to me to deal with!" I wonder how much these two baskets of medicinal herbs can be sold for? ”

Hearing this, Li Lao said with a straight face: "The minimum is also thirty yuan, most of these two baskets of medicinal materials have five years old, you had better sell them tonight, otherwise the medicinal effect will be missing, then it will be a pity." ”

Chen Qun nodded: "Okay, grandpa, don't worry, I'll go and sell medicinal herbs." ”

After Chen Qun finished speaking, he took out thirty big coins and handed them to Li Lao, but Li Lao frowned and said: "It's not so much, the thirty wen I said is small money, and half of the big money is enough." ”

Chen Qun smiled slightly: "Grandpa, just accept it!" I said it's worth it, this is the medicinal materials collected by our grandfather and grandson himself, you go back first, and I'll go back after processing the medicinal materials. ”

Li Lao frowned when he heard this: "If you go to a new merchant to sell, people will definitely ask for a lot of things, in case you can't answer, people will think that you grabbed this medicinal material, then you will have a lawsuit, let's go, grandpa will accompany you on a trip." ”

After Li Lao finished speaking, he picked up a basket of medicinal materials again, but Chen Qun asked puzzledly: "Grandpa, why does the medicinal herb shop ask about this?" Is there anything that can't be done? ”

Li Lao said with a straight face: "Medicinal materials are related to the life of medicine farmers, and the medicine shops do not collect their own medicines, so in order to protect the medicine farmers, the medicine shops will ask some common sense about the new medicine farmers who come to sell, and this regulation is not how to implement it, but in recent years, there have been many disasters, and the medicine dealers around the country have increased the protection of the medicine farmers, so it will be like this." The robbers robbed the medicine farmers, once they were discovered, then he would never want to buy medicinal materials again for the rest of his life, so even if the robbers had no way, they would not rob the medicine farmers. ”

Chen Qun couldn't help but know when he heard this, it turned out that this was the case, he thought that this world was very peaceful, but he didn't expect that he was thinking too much. After Chen Qun understood the reason, he didn't think much about it, but took Li Lao straight to Tang Zhou's medicinal herb shop.

After Chen Qun and Li Lao came to Tang Zhou's medicinal herb shop, the shopkeeper really didn't check the medicinal materials for the first time, but first asked some common sense about collecting medicines, and Li Lao answered them all one by one. Only then did the shopkeeper step forward to investigate the medicinal herbs.

After the shopkeeper finished inspecting all the two baskets of medicinal materials one by one, he repacked the medicinal materials in their basket, and then got up and looked at Li Lao: "Uncle, the quality of your medicinal materials is very good, we are willing to buy them at a price of thirty-five yuan, what do you think?" ”

Li Lao was about to agree, but Chen Qun hurriedly said, "No!" How is it only thirty-five? Aren't you cheating on us? My grandfather and I walked around the mountains all day, and only then did we collect such good medicinal herbs, and you gave too little! At least 50 yuan, less will not be sold. ”

After Chen Qun finished speaking, he looked at Li Lao: "Grandpa, you see that I am not too young, we have to save money to marry my daughter-in-law, I don't know how long it will take for this luck to come after today, we can't sell less." The pharmacy just now gave forty dollars, and we didn't sell it. ”

Hearing this, Li Lao nodded and frowned, "Yes, boss, you gave too little." ”

Hearing this, the shopkeeper looked at the old man and grandson Li and blinked, and then shook his head slightly, because the price he gave was not low, but the grandfather and grandson did not dislike it. The shopkeeper could see at a glance that it was Chen Qun, the little guy, who was making a mistake, because the old man had already agreed to the price he gave before.

Seeing this, Chen Qun frowned and said, "Are you the boss?" If you hadn't asked your boss to come out, you would have to accept this medicinal herb for fifty cents today, otherwise my grandfather and I wouldn't be able to leave. ”

"What's wrong? What's wrong? What are you arguing about? ”

As soon as Chen Qun finished yelling, he heard a shout, and at the same time, a slightly chubby middle-aged man came out of it. When the shopkeeper saw this person, he hurriedly stepped forward and whispered to the middle-aged man for a while.

The middle-aged man nodded continuously when he heard this, and then looked Li Lao and Chen Qun up and down: "Two, seeing that you are all dusty, I think you have just come down from the mountain, in view of the fact that your medicinal materials are really good, today is also the first time to visit the shop, I will take these medicinal materials according to your price, but there is absolutely no next time, if you still want to sell at this price next time, then you have to go to other houses to see." ”

Chen Qun smiled when he heard this: "The boss is really kind-hearted, and the boss will make a lot of money!" I hope we have a happy cooperation in the future. Today is my grandfather who accompanies me to sell medicinal herbs, and I will be alone in the future, and I hope you don't make it difficult. I'm just doing this so that you guys remember memorable. ”

The middle-aged man smiled when he heard this: "This little brother really has a lot of eyes, but they are all poor families, all for life, there will be no such good things next time, okay, give you money." ”

Li Lao was a little stunned after receiving the fifty yuan, and then left the medicinal herb shop under the pull of Chen Qun.

There was nothing to say all the way, and after returning home, Li Lao and Chen Qun had eaten the dinner prepared by Li Bing'er together, and Chen Qun was ready to rest. Li Bing'er saw that Chen Qun had been sullen since he came back, and asked with concern, "Cousin, are you not feeling well?" ”

Chen Qun shook his head: "There is no Bing'er, don't guess." Grandpa, I'm going to sleep first, and I'm really tired today. ”

Hearing this, Li Lao nodded: "Go!" Don't talk about you, I'm a perennial medicine picker can't stand this intensity of fatigue, generally take a day of medicine and have to rest for three days to recover, this is still when I was young, now I have to rest for a week to rest over, and then it's okay before the Lantern Festival, you have a good rest. With the money we made today, we can have a good Lantern Festival. ”

Chen Qun had something in his heart, so he nodded mechanically, then said hello to Li Bing'er, and went to sleep by himself.

Although Chen Qun was indeed very tired, but he couldn't sleep, he was depressed that he didn't see Tang Zhou today, he didn't expect that he had worked hard all day, but he didn't even see Tang Zhou himself, Chen Qun suddenly felt that things were a little tricky, not as easy to get started as he imagined: what should I do? If I can't meet Tang Zhou as soon as possible, then there will be no point in me doing all this.

Chen Qun was indeed sleepy, and after thinking of this, he couldn't help but fall asleep in a daze. Suddenly, Chen Qun sat up with a spirit, because he thought of what Elder Li said: When he was young, he needed to rest for three days to collect medicine for one day.

"Hahaha......! Right! That's it! Chen Qun figured out what to do next and went to sleep again, this time he slept deeply.

Li Bing'er, who was cleaning outside, suddenly heard loud laughter coming from Chen Qun's room, so she cautiously came to the door of Chen Qun's room and whispered, "Cousin? Haven't you slept yet? ”

Li Bing'er didn't hear Chen Qun's reply, she couldn't help frowning slightly, worried that something would happen to Chen Qun, so she opened the door of Chen Qun's room and looked inside, and found that Chen Qun was sleeping soundly with the quilt, accompanied by a slight snoring sound. Seeing this, Li Bing'er smiled slightly, gently closed Chen Qun's door and left.

After Li Bing'er left Chen Qun's room, she whispered with a smile on her face: "My cousin's voice is really loud when he talks in his sleep, I really don't know what happy things he has in his heart, and he is so happy to laugh." ”

After Li Bing'er finished muttering, she continued to clean up.

After a night of silence, Chen Qun woke up early the next morning, Chen Qun woke up and planned to go to the barracks, but he didn't go anywhere when he thought that he couldn't be exposed, but began to punch empty-handed in the courtyard of the Li family. Chen Qun is obviously a long fist in the army. But no one looked at it, so Chen Qun didn't care. After all, the Changquan set of boxing methods is too popular, as long as you have practiced martial arts, almost everyone can do it.

After a set of punches ten times, Chen Qun suddenly felt a lot of energy, and when he was about to go back to the house to rest, he found that Li Bing'er not far away was smirking at him, and looked at Li Bing'er and smiled: "Bing'er is early!" Got up so early. ”

Li Bing'er nodded with a smile when she heard this: "Cousin is early!" My cousin punched so well! Hand it over to me, okay? ”

Chen Qun blinked when he heard this: "Okay! No problem, of course Bing'er wants to learn from her brother, come, let's start here. ”
