Chapter Seventy-Three: The Virtuous Collection of the Lower City
"If you have to take the post to let you in, isn't it embarrassing for others to post to others if they are not sick?"
The shopkeeper disagreed, "The eldest lady doesn't know that the reason why this 'elegant house' is ingeniously named 'elegant house' instead of 'pharmacy' is because it is a private house!" ”
"Since it's a private house, naturally you are not allowed to come and go at will!"
"Besides, his master, Luo Gongzi, was originally a healer who traveled all over the world, and his medical skills were excellent."
"How many people squeeze their heads to see Luo Gongzi, where can they care about whether receiving an invitation implies that others invite them to see a doctor?"
"But the invitation to the house is only sent once a year, and it is sent out in the spring. If the eldest lady wants to buy medicinal herbs, she can go to the other four! ”
Cao Zhijin nodded.
The shopkeeper was relieved to see that she did not challenge him.
I thought to myself, although this eldest lady has a bad temper, she is quite reasonable, and she won't go if she can't get in.
Unlike some guests from other places, who told them that they couldn't enter the mansion, they had to go to the door of someone's house to break in, but they were beaten and carried back, and they had to pay for the medical expenses!
"Your second question, what are the famous snacks here?" He smiled, revealing a bit of just the right amount of cunning, "There are famous snacks here, and the eldest lady will know if she stays for a few more days!" ”
Cao Zhijin continued to nod.
She didn't care about this problem in the first place, even if he played a little trick in front of her, she wouldn't care very much!
"Your third question, what are the rules here?" He laughed, a sense of pride filling his face, "This question is small and the fourth question, the origin of the name of Xianji City, will be answered to you!" ”
He raised his voice in a storytelling posture, not so much explaining to her as to everyone.
The difference was that everyone listened to his words with the same smile on their faces, which was a kind of resonance, while she only had doubts on her face.
"The reason why Xianji City is called Xianji City is that it is a place where all talents gather. The biggest rule of Xianji City is ......"
The shopkeeper puts his hand on his ear and makes a listening gesture.
I only heard the guests and the guys and others in the lobby shouting in unison: "There are no rules!"
The shouts are shocking!
Cao Zhijin saw one thing in their faces, and that was freedom and happiness!
It turned out that she had arrived in Xiacheng Xianji City!
Cao Zhijin remembered what he was going to do, and said to the shopkeeper: "Thank you for telling me, I'll go out for a walk!"
Bidding farewell to the inn, Cao Zhijin came to the street, and there were many people on the street, sweating like rain one after another!
Cao Zhijin took a few steps firmly, and was forced to be carried by others.
She grabbed a man and asked him how to get to Qu's pharmacy.
The man pointed in a direction, and suddenly disappeared, and there was another person next to her.
Cao Zhijin's height is not short, but in the uneven crowd, she can't see the situation in front of her at all.
Fortunately, when this kind of being carried away, it got better in less than half an hour.
The crowd on the street gradually dispersed like a low tide, and she finally had space to move around, and in less than a short time, there was extra space next to her!
She followed the direction of the man's finger just now, and finally saw the black plaque of "Qu's Pharmacy".
Cao Zhijin walked to the door and breathed a sigh of relief.
The shopkeeper hurriedly greeted him, looked at Cao Zhijin and said with a smile: "There are too many people!"
"yes, there are too many people!" Cao Zhijin subconsciously said it, only to realize that she didn't know the shop guy at all!
But this guy is really good, and a small talk with just the right tone shortens the distance with the customer!
"What's going on today? Why are there so many people on the street? Since someone is close, she is also happy to ask for more news!
The shopkeeper said, "The guest officer is the first time to come to Xianji, right?" They're like this every day! It's not that there are many special activities, it's just that the meal has arrived! ”
"All to eat?" Cao Zhijin was a little surprised!
The shop guy smiled: "The guest officer doesn't know, there is a smooth saying in our Xianji: I am not active in eating, and I have a problem with my brain!"
Cao Zhijin smiled "poof", this Xianji City is really interesting!
"Having said all that, let's come in and have a cup of tea! The shopkeeper's new Baihua tea yesterday, beauty and beauty, please try it! ”
His steps stepped back vigorously, his body did not bend, and he reached out and made a "please" gesture inside.
This set of movements is smooth and decent, and it looks extremely tense.
Cao Zhijin walked in.
I saw that this pharmacy was surrounded by dark red and black cabinets containing herbs, and on each side of the cabinets was divided into small square drawers half an arm long and wide, with labels on them, and the names of herbs were written on the labels.
On the right hand side of the door is the reckoning desk, and there is a door behind the counter to the left, and in the middle of the pharmacy there is a small round table and a simple stool, just like a table used for eating in the lobby of an inn!
However, these tables are smaller and more elegant than the ones used for eating in the inn!
Someone was sitting at the table, and there was a cup of fragrant petal tea in front of them, which seemed to be the Baihua tea that the guy just mentioned!
After the guy entered the door, he quickly cleaned up the cold stains of the residual tea on the table, invited her to sit down, and after a while, held a cup of steaming petal tea in both hands.
"Taste it!" The guy stood by, looking expectant.
Cao Zhijin picked up the cup, blew the hot air from the mouth of the cup, took a sip, and nodded: "Fragrant!"
The man smiled reassuringly, glanced quickly towards the door, and then grinned even more at Cao Zhijin.
"You taste it slowly, and then call it small!"
Cao Zhijin nodded, but he was very helpless in his heart! - Was she arranged to buy potpourri tea?
The man hurried to the door, where stood a young girl dressed in shabby clothes and wearing a veil.
He asked the girl in the familiar tone that he had just spoken to her, "The flow of people just now faded, didn't you crowd the girl?"
The young girl shook her head and said, "I counted them out when they dispersed."
Cao Zhijin knew that this girl was a person who was familiar with the local customs.
Seeing this, the guy didn't get close, and directly invited someone in.
Qu's Pharmacy has a well-known reputation in the local area, and if you take the initiative to find a local customer, you will definitely buy something!
But not necessarily! Privately, they call this kind of situation where the customer originally made up his mind about what to buy, but the transaction did not work out, as an "unexpected situation".
But in his hands, there will never be such an "accident"!
The girl walked in and took off her veil.
I saw that the lower half of her face was faintly covered with freckles and dense bright red red dots, which looked very scary.
The man looked at it, and immediately entered the door behind the left side of the bookkeeper, and after a while he came out again, followed by a middle-aged man in a blue robe.
The man led to the girl and said, "Doctor Qu, this is this girl!"
It turned out that the man was the doctor of this Qu's pharmacy!
