Chapter 35 Inquiry
The mule cart went very fast, and in less than half an hour, they reached the county seat.
Chu Xintian and Niu Li got off the bus on Market Street.
The market street is very lively, with many shops selling everything, and the cries of vendors are endless.
"Yongjing Niang, are you carrying those medicines?" Let's find a pharmacy and sell it. Niu Li was afraid that Chu Xintian would carry Shen on his back, and said with some distress.
"yes, okay."
"Yongjing Niang, you see there are a few pharmacies in front, let's go."
Two men walked over and saw two houses across the street. One is called Huichuntang Pharmacy, and the other is called Baicao Hall.
Chu Xintian thought for a while, and then walked to the Huichuntang Pharmacy.
There was a young man standing at the door of the pharmacy, and he saw Chu Xintian and Niu Li walking over, looking them up and down with his eyes.
"What do the two guest officers need?"
It may be that Chu Xintian and Niu Li are both wearing coarse cloth clothes and village women's dress, so this guy's tone is not very enthusiastic, and he stands at the door, as if he doesn't want them to go in.
Chu Xintian frowned when he saw this guy's demeanor. No matter what era it is, there will be these snobs.
However, Chu Xintian didn't show any signs of unhappiness, she asked with a smile, "This big brother, do you have any shou wu in your store?"
This person heard that Chu Xintian was coming to buy medicine, so he turned sideways and let them in.
"The He Shou Wu in our store is the best. How much do you want, guest officer?"
"Can I see the colors first?"
Hearing Chu Xintian say this, the guy frowned a little impatiently, he felt that Chu Xintian didn't seem to have any money, and it was so troublesome that he couldn't buy much, so he was a little reluctant, but he still went to get the medicine.
At this time, Niu Li pulled Chu Xintian's sleeve and asked in a low voice, "Yongjing Niang, aren't we here to sell medicinal herbs?" Why would you want to buy it?"
Chu Xintian smiled, "We have to know the price first when we sell things, I want to see how much He Shou Wu in their store sells, and then set the price, so as not to be deceived." ”
Niu Li listened to Chu Xintian's words very reasonable, so he didn't squeak.
At this time, the young man picked up He Shou Wu and put it on the counter.
Chu Xintian couldn't help frowning when he saw that He Shou Wu was short and thin, long and uneven, this was too far from what they had dug on the North Mountain.
"Is this the best He Shou Wu?"
"Guest officer, this He Shou Wu is the best seller, fifteen wen and one tael."
"So you don't have the best in your pharmacy?"
"The best, we also have it in the store, but the price is ......" The young man said halfway through his words, he stopped and looked at Chu Xintian with his eyes, meaning that you can't afford our best.
Chu Xintian listened to this young man's words, and couldn't help but feel angry in her heart, people who do business will meet all kinds of people, in order to avoid delaying her plan, there is no need for her to argue with a young man about this.
"Show me the best He Shou Wu in your shop."
"Our best He Shou Wu, but it sells for thirty wen and one tael, sister, can you afford it?"
This young man's words made people very uncomfortable, but Chu Xintian didn't care, because she didn't come here to buy He Shou Wu, she came to inquire about the price and sell He Shou Wu.
In this pharmacy, the worst-processed He Shou Wu is sold for fifteen wen. The best finished product of He Shou Wu is thirty Wen. If the market price is three times the purchase price, then the He Shou Wu dug up by Chu Xintian from Beishan can be sold for at least ten wen.
Chu Xintian's heart had a score, so she stopped chatting with this young man.
"If you don't show us, let's go."
Chu Xintian is reluctant to do business with people with a bad attitude.
However, before they could walk out of the pharmacy, they were blocked by a man.
