Chapter 20 The first sale of wolfberries

The next morning, before dawn, Shen Yuerong got up.

She went to see the dried wolfberries in her cloth pocket for the first time, picked up a few with her hands and pinched them.

Fortunately, there was no return to the tide, but she deliberately chose to put away the sun-dried wolfberries at four or five o'clock when the sun was full and the moisture was relatively small.

These nearly 20 catties of fresh wolfberries, except for some blackened and damaged ones, are picked out, and the rest is dried and now about five catties.

Shen Yuerong packed the wolfberries in two cloth pockets, one with more and one with less.

She knew that her brother would definitely not let her suffer alone, so instead of letting her go, it was better to get ready early.

After packing up the dried wolfberries, she tied the money bag to the inside of her coat again, and then went to wake up her brother.

After eating breakfast, the two sisters and brothers each had a cloth bag, and hurriedly walked on the road to Fenglin Town.

Shen Nianhua was very excited, after selling dried wolfberries, he would have money, and he wanted his sister to buy him a string of sugar gourds.

Shen Yuerong also looked forward to selling for more money, so she first patched her brother's patch and changed the ill-fitting gown.

The sister and brother walked briskly, and arrived at Fenglin Town in less than an hour.

The town is the same as the last time I came, with depressed streets, scattered passers-by, and rows of small vendors on the side of the road.

"Sister, where are we going to put it? Do you want to put it on the side of the stall that sold jujube last time? Shen Nianhua pulled the hem of his sister's skirt and asked, pointing to an empty seat not far away.

"Nian'er, we don't set up a stall today." Shen Yuerong shook her head at her younger brother.

Shen Nianhua was very puzzled, didn't my sister say that she wanted to sell wolfberries?

"Sister, then how are we going to sell wolfberries?"

"Nian'er, this wolfberry is sold on the side of the road and no one knows it, we have to go to the herb shop and find someone we know to sell."

Shen Yuerong said that, she took her younger brother's little hand and went straight to the medicinal herb shop.

This herb shop is the only herb shop in the town, and it looks quite big, but it's not exquisite at all.

There wasn't even a serious plaque on the door, just a cloth with the word "medicine" written on it on the door to mark what kind of place it was.

Shen Yuerong took her younger brother into the medicinal herb shop, but she didn't expect that there were a lot of people in this medicinal herb shop, which was completely different from the dilapidated look on the outside.

There are some people waiting in line on the far left, and the counter in the middle is also crowded with people.

There were three people at the counter who were quickly picking, weighing, and packing all kinds of medicinal herbs.

On the far right of the counter, an uncle about forty years old was carefully looking at the ledger and fiddling with the abacus.

There is no doubt that the doctor on the left must be the doctor, and the medicine boy working at the counter in the middle should be wearing a uniform short coat.

The uncle on the right didn't see a doctor or take medicine, he must be in charge.

Shen Yuerong pulled her younger brother forward.

"Shopkeeper, I have medicinal herbs that I want to sell to your shop."

There are often people in the medicinal herb shop who pick all kinds of medicinal materials to sell, the common ones are some gastrodia, rehmannia and the like, and occasionally there are some small ginseng, the shopkeeper raised his eyelids, looking at this little girl who was only a little higher than the counter, a little disdainful.

"Little girl, what kind of herbs do you want to sell?"

After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he lowered his head and continued to fiddle with the abacus.

Shen Yuerong grabbed a handful of wolfberries from the bag and put them on the counter.

"That's what I'm selling, dried goji berries."

The shopkeeper thought he had misheard, and raised his head to look at the wolfberries on the counter.

It's really dried wolfberry, in addition to eating a little sweet, what value can this thing have in medicine?

"This can't be used in medicine, we don't want it."

Shen Nianhua was very frustrated when he heard the shopkeeper say no so decisively.

This is the only pharmacy in town, and if you don't want it here, where can you sell it?

Shen Yuerong looked at her brother's depressed appearance, and she decided to give the shopkeeper a good explanation.

"Shopkeeper, this is dried wolfberry, it is very nutritious. It can not only nourish blood, but also nourish the liver and kidneys, strengthen muscles and bones, anti-aging, moisten the lungs and eyes, and can also treat symptoms such as lack of sperm and blood, tinnitus and dazzling, vision loss, waist and knee soreness, etc., and have a tonic effect on yin deficiency and yang deficiency. This is a great medicinal herb! ”

The shopkeeper listened to this little girl say such a big bunch, what to replenish blood, what to replenish the kidney, isn't this the dog milk paper on the mountain? What happened when I haven't seen it?

The shopkeeper had a headache even if he was settling accounts, and he was very irritable when he was so troubled.

"Little girl, don't try to lie to me, hurry up and take your things out for me, we don't need it."

After saying that, he called a medicine boy and drove the sisters and brothers out.

Shen Nianhua saw that he had been kicked out, and his sister was definitely unhappy, but the shopkeeper was so fierce that he didn't dare to go in again.

"Sister, why don't we go back." Shen Nianhua said cautiously.

Shen Yuerong was very angry, what kind of place is this, I don't even know that wolfberries can be used in medicine, such a person is embarrassed to open a medicine shop?

After explaining for so long and driving himself out, the more Shen Yuerong thought about it, the more angry he became.

"Don't be afraid, sister, go in again, you stand here obediently and wait for me, don't run around."

Shen Nianhua remembered the very fierce shopkeeper, and originally wanted to stop his sister, but after Shen Yuerong explained to Shen Nianhua, he had already raised his feet and entered the pharmacy for the second time.

"It's okay if you don't accept my wolfberries, but you don't even know that wolfberries can be used in medicine, isn't this kind of medical skill a scourge to the township? I'm going to have to break it with you today! ”

Shen Yuerong pointed to the shopkeeper and said loudly.

The shopkeeper didn't expect this handsome little girl to be kicked out, but she didn't give up and came back.

The ancient medicine book "Huiyan of Materia Medica" has long been recorded: "Goji berries can make qi can be filled, blood can be replenished, yang can be born, yin can grow, fire can be lowered, rheumatism can be removed, and it has a perfect use." ”

The shopkeeper looked at this small but imposing girl, and was stunned: "Girl, I haven't read the book you said." ”

Shen Yuerong took a deep breath: "Just because you haven't seen it doesn't mean that you don't exist, it only proves that you are only a shallow learner!" You are just a little bit of a pound, and you are actually embarrassed to open a pharmacy, don't you regard human life as a mustard? ”

The shopkeeper's face was flushed with shame, and he was very angry.

But there are more and more onlookers in the medicine shop, and he is not easy to drive people away.

He can't even admit that his knowledge is shallow, otherwise how will this medicinal herb shop continue to operate in the future.

"Little girl, this thing really has no medicinal value, otherwise my pharmacy would have sold it a long time ago."

He had no choice but to stiffen his neck and refute, because his heart was weak and his face was very ugly.

"Do you have Tianshan Snow Lotus in your herb shop? Is there cordyceps? Is there a thousand-year-old ginseng? Shen Yuerong snorted coldly and looked at the shopkeeper who didn't dare to speak with disdain.

"If you don't sell it in the herb shop, you have no medicinal value, and that day the mountain snow lotus, cordyceps sinensis, and thousand-year-old ginseng have no medicinal value? You're really shallow! ”

Shen Yuerong ignored the fact that his face had turned into a pig's liver, and walked away.

"Oops." A man's exclamation rang out.

It turned out that Shen Yuerong came out of the medicinal herb shop in a hurry, but she didn't expect to bump into a person at the door of the medicinal herb shop.
