Chapter 26: Empty-handed

The little girl pinched the toad grass and stood in front of the stall wiping her tears.

Liu Jie was a little unbearable, so he walked over, stood in front of the little girl, lowered his head and asked, "How much are you going to sell this toad grass?"

The little girl looked up at him, tears still on her face.

This little girl is actually only eleven or twelve years old, and she is very beautiful, with a small face and big eyes.

Liu Jie stretched out his hand and pointed at the toad grass: "I want to buy your herbs." ”

The little girl was a little surprised and asked, "Really?"

Liu Jie nodded: "How much are you going to sell this toad grass?"

The little girl immediately said, "Two hundred and fifty-three dollars." ”

This time it was Liu Jie's turn to be surprised, wild toad grass is a rare herb, Liu Jie originally thought that since the little girl could recognize this as toad grass, the asking price would definitely not be low, but he didn't expect to only plan to sell it for so much money.

Liu Jie simply said: "Okay, I bought your toad grass." ”

Liu Jie took out his wallet and took out three hundred sheets: "Don't look for it." ”

The little girl's eyes widened in surprise, and when she saw the money in his hand, her eyes lit up.

She took the money, but took out a single one hundred and returned it to Liu Jie: "I sold it for two hundred and fifty-three yuan." ”

Liu Jie stuffed the money into her: "It's okay, you take it, I'm willing to spend three hundred to buy it." ”

"But I told Grandma Yamagami that if my sister found out, she would be angry with me. "The little girl is very persistent.

"You told Grandma Shanshen, why did your sister find out and be angry?" Liu Jie thought it was quite interesting.

The little girl returned the money to Liu Jie: "My sister won't let me deceive people, so I will sell it for 253 yuan." ”

Medicine farmers like to worship the mountain god and the lord of the land, and they are particularly pious in this regard.

Song Jinbao sighed: "Then when you made a promise to Grandma Mountain God, why did you set such a money?"

The little girl cried so hard just now, she couldn't control her emotions, and sniffed: "My father went up the mountain to collect medicine and injured his waist, and the doctor said that it costs 253 yuan to prepare plasters." I had planned to use my pocket money to buy a plaster for my father, but when I got in the car, I lost the money. ”

Song Jinbao said: "The current thief is really lacking in morality, and such a young child also steals." ”

The little girl stopped crying, she was reaching out to wipe the tears on her face, and when she heard Song Jinbao's words, the movements in her hands stopped, and she didn't raise her head, and the big tears slipped down her cheeks.

"Hey!" Liu Jie hurriedly signaled to Song Jinbao, don't open any pot and mention which pot.

Song Jinbao didn't expect this little girl to be made of water, tears came as soon as she said it, and she hurriedly said: "Don't cry, it's a pretty little face, it's not beautiful to cry." ”

"My 。。。。。。 It's mine...... The little girl raised her hand and wiped it on her eyes: "I lost the money I saved with great difficulty。。。。。。 ”

More than two hundred is a lot for a little girl who looks like she is only eleven or twelve years old, Liu Jie comforted: "Don't be sad, aren't you earning the money back now?"

The little girl choked up and said, "I just can't bear my money, my sister gives me a dollar a day, and I have saved for a long time。。。。。。 ”

Song Jinbao couldn't help but interject: "Let your sister make it up to you again." ”

The little girl wiped away her tears: "If my sister knows that I lost my money, she should be angry with me." ”

"Didn't she know it yet?" Song Jinbao's patience was running out.

But when she came back in the evening and found that the toad grass was gone, she should have known. When the little girl said this, she began to cry again.

"You secretly took this herb out of your house and sold it, and the adults in your family don't know about it?" Liu Jie hurriedly asked.

"It was my dad who gave me the toad grass, and he knew that I had lost my money and asked me to take it out and sell it。。。。。。 The little girl continued to cry.

"Okay, okay, don't cry, the snot is out. Liu Jie persuaded, took out his wallet again, and drew out three hundred sheets: "I'll make it up for you." ”

The little girl raised her head suddenly, and when she saw the money in his hand, her eyes dimmed again: "I can't ask for your money, my sister won't let me ask for other people's money, otherwise she will 。。。。。。 ”

"I'm going to be angry with you, isn't it?, why is your sister so angry!" Liu Jie shoved the money into the little girl's hand and said, "Your toad grassland is already very valuable, you sell it cheaply, I should give you more money." ”

"Can't take your money. The little girl clenched her fists and refused to ask for money.

"Then let's do it, I'll borrow this money from you, and when you have money in the future, you'll pay it back to me. Liu Jie discussed with her.

The little girl stared at him for a while, and then nodded reluctantly: "Okay, when I save enough money, I will definitely pay you back." ”

"Okay, that's it. Liu Jie stuffed the money into her: "When you go home, don't mention today's stubble with your father, you can collect the money yourself." ”

The little girl hesitated and nodded: "Thank you, brother." ”

"Okay, take the money and go home, go back directly, pay attention to safety when you take the car, don't lose the money again!" Liu Jie instructed her.

"Hmm. The little girl took the money, turned around and ran, ran a few steps, stopped again, ran back to Liu Jie, raised her head and said, "Brother, you can leave me a phone, I have the money to pay you back, so I will call you to tell you." ”

Liu Jie borrowed a pen from the stall owner on the side and wrote the phone number on the little girl's hand.

After the little girl ran all the way away, Song Jinbao said: "In the end, it is young and hot, in such a cold day, it is not too cold to wear so little." ”

Liu Jie glanced at the direction the little girl left and retracted his gaze.

This little girl's physique is obviously better than ordinary people, don't see through it less, but Liu Jie can feel that her breath is very stable, and she is really not afraid of the cold.

Liu Jie said casually: "It may be that I have been walking in the mountains for a long time, and my health is fine." ”

Leaving in front of the medicine stall, Liu Jie and Song Jinbao went around the medicinal herb market inside and out, but they didn't find any good treasures.

Song Jinbao proposed: "Why don't we go to Xiangyang District now?"

Liu Jie knew that even if he went to Xiangyang District, he could really only turn around, so he refused: "No need, wait for two days to have time to come here to have a look." It's really not good, and then let the fourth brother help find a way, and I can't rush this matter. ”

"I'll go back in a moment, and ask my friends to help keep an eye on it, and if I get the news, I'll let you know as soon as I get it. Song Jinbao was particularly concerned about this matter.

Liu Jie smiled and nodded.

Coming out of the medicinal herb market, Song Jinbao drove Liu Jie back to the hospital in a broken miniature car, and specially went upstairs to say hello to the old man, and then left.

In the next few days, Song Jinbao would call Liu Jie almost nothing and say some news about medicinal herbs.

Because the weather is getting colder now, there are fewer medicine farmers going up the mountain, so there are almost no treasures on the market, and even if there are, they are all private collections, and they can't be made without a strong relationship.

Liu Jie thought that if he couldn't get the medicinal materials after a while, he would simply return the money, anyway, with his ability, he wouldn't worry about not being able to get the money.
