As soon as Carambola and the others entered the city, they were attracted by the anti-prosperity of Kyoto.

So they found an inn to settle down, and a few people couldn't wait to go outside.

In addition to carrying enough silver taels, star fruit also brought a bag of new gastrodia from Liumian Mountain on his body, and the Yang family also packed a jar of pickles.

"What are you doing here, preparing to grab business in Kyoto before you know the market?" Qiao An took his hand, looked at her funny and said, "Don't worry about the sound matter today, let's take a good look in the capital and see for a long time." ”

"What if you have the chance?"

"Even if you have the opportunity, you don't know the rules and market here." The star fruit didn't move, so Qiao An had to put down all the gastrodia and pickles by herself.

The star fruit originally pouted, but when it went out and was rushed by the lively scene, it forgot to be clean.

When you are tired of playing, you can find a roadside stall and eat two bites of authentic Beijing flavor, which is comfortable!

After eating and drinking, the star fruit didn't want to move after an afternoon of walking. It just so happens that next to the food stall is the famous pickle shop 'Liujiangfang' in Beijing, and diagonally opposite is a medical hall 'Huichun Tang' with a thriving business.

So, the star fruit asked for a plate of fried peas, and watched it while resting.

"I'll buy you some pickles!"

Star fruit looked at Qiao An gratefully, and happily coquettish: "I have to have some of everything, I have to taste it." ”

It was the old couple who set up the stall, and they couldn't help but laugh when they saw the star fruit and Qiao An: "The little lady is so blessed, but if you want to eat the pickles in our capital, you have to go to the Yang family in the northeast corner of the vegetable market." The six sauce shops are famous and expensive, and the taste is not as good as the small shop of the Yang family. ”

"Try the Six Sauce Shop first, and then go to the Yang family shop you mentioned."

Star fruit threw a fragrant fried pea into her mouth, and there was a little couple chatting with the little couple.

"The business of the Rejuvenation Hall on the other side is really good, and the doctor sitting in the hall must be very skilled."

"The medical skills are good, and the medicinal materials are also expensive." Speaking of this, the old woman sighed: "Usually if you look at a cold wind, there are only a dozen copper plates for a piece of medicine, but he needs fifty or sixty here." Where can ordinary people afford to get sick? ”

Star fruit became interested: "Why is the same medicine so expensive?" ”

"It's not the same medicine, I heard that his family's medicine is of good quality."

No matter how good the quality is, it shouldn't be so expensive. Ordinary wind and cold, ordinary medicinal materials such as banyan root and forsythia can be cured, and the profit of more than a dozen copper plates is very considerable, selling fifty or sixty, which is unreasonable.

Star fruit had doubts, and she didn't care about tasting any pickles, so she got up and went to the rejuvenation hall.

"Sister!" Yang Chunxiao pulled her: "If you are not familiar with life, don't make trouble." ”

"I'm going to see what their medicine can do?" Carambola turned around and smiled slyly at Yang Chunxiao: "If they have a high cost, our medicine from Liumian Mountain can still help them." ”

Yang Chunxiao himself was also curious about why the medicine was sold so expensive, and there were so many people patronizing it. So he didn't stop the star fruit and followed him.

Seeing that someone was coming, the guys in the Rejuvenation Hall were also enthusiastic.

As soon as the star fruit said that she had a headache and diarrhea, a guy led her to a doctor with a white beard and introduced: "This is Li Langzhong, except for the imperial doctor in the palace, our Li Lang has the most skilled Chinese medicine skills." ”

"Then I'll be tired of Li Langzhong." Carambola stretched out her arm and took a silk handkerchief to ask Dr. Li to check her pulse.

Dr. Li was also kind, and while checking the pulse, he gossiped with star fruit: the little lady is the first to come to the capital, what to do when she comes to the capital, what to do at home, and so on......

Star fruit also followed perfunctory: his home is in Shuzhou, and he came to the capital with his husband to take the exam, and his family is still rich in the pickle business......

So, Dr. Li looked at the star fruit again, just like watching the fat sheep in autumn.

With the other hand, his fingers pressed on the pulse door intentionally or unintentionally, and the star fruit dodged slightly, and the second child served tea over there.

"The little lady will take a sip of tea first."

Star fruit didn't want to drink it, so she only asked Dr. Li: "What disease do I have, is it serious?" ”

Dr. Li still persuaded her to drink tea: "The stomach is not balanced, the lung qi is not smooth, and there is a slight wind chill." It doesn't sound tight, but it's not easy to treat, but I'm afraid that it will cause a serious illness. ”

As he spoke, he personally handed the tea to the star fruit and persuaded: "Ginger tea specially boiled and distributed free of charge in the Huichun Hall." You take a sip and you'll feel better right away. ”

Does ginger tea still have such a good effect?

Star fruit felt weird, so she took ginger tea to him. At first, there is nothing wrong with the smell, but as soon as the tea enters the mouth, there is a faint smell of 'stomach colic'.

This flavor is occasionally used in the prescription of severe constipation, but it is toxic and strong, so it will not be used in leisure.

Powerful medicine that is not used for constipation actually goes down to the tea of patients who claim to have stomach trouble? What kind of heart is this?

Carambola quietly took a sip of tea, and then asked Li Langzhong to make a prescription.

"Madame, don't worry, the medicine of our Rejuvenation Hall is the most effective, you can take three posts and keep it to heal." Lieutenant Li Lang handed the prescribed prescription to the star fruit and asked her to grab the medicine.

Star fruit carefully looked at the prescription, but it was just some ordinary prescriptions that defeated the fire and drained dampness. It does not cure headaches or diarrhea. It seems that this Li Lang Center is clear, her star fruit is not sick at all, and the headache and diarrhea may just be the first time to adapt to the water and soil.

took the house and went to the account room to bargain the price, and such an ordinary medicinal material would cost eighty-six dollars.

"So expensive?" Even though he had been mentally prepared for a long time, star fruit was still taken aback.

"How can there be a doctor who is not expensive? We have a good doctor here, good medicinal materials, keep your medicine until the disease is cured. The bookkeeper patiently persuaded: "If you want to be too expensive, go to Jiu'an Hall on Front Street, and a pair of medicines will only cost more than ten copper plates." But you didn't say anything about taking medicine for more than ten years, and you dragged a minor illness into a major illness. By that time, it won't be cured by dozens of copper plates. ”

Carambola glanced at him more and said with a smile: "Mr. is right." ”

I paid for the medicine, and the medicinal materials I got were only of mid-to-lower quality.

Carambola pouted and smiled: "What a black shop!" ”

Because of drinking his family's ginger tea, the star fruit vomited and diarrhea after a while. She hurriedly went to Jiu'an Hall to see a doctor, where the doctor took the pulse for a long time, and finally smiled: "Some people are not accustomed to water and soil, and it is estimated that they have also eaten some unclean diet, no big deal, and it will be fine if you take two patches of medicine." ”

When the star fruit looked at the prescription he prescribed, it was really not suitable for water and soil, and gastrointestinal disharmony was being treated.

"I don't think I'm at odds!" Star fruit looked at the doctor sincerely and asked, "You take a handful more carefully to see if you have eaten something like cogmy by mistake." ”

The doctor smiled: "The little lady can really laugh, colicis is not easy to use in ordinary pharmacies, where can you get it?" ”

As he spoke, he waved his hand and asked the star fruit to grab the medicine: "Don't worry, the colicus is very cold, if you really eat it." At this time, I will roll on the bed with a stomachache, and at the same time, I will have to sit on the gong bucket and not be able to get up and down. ”

Star fruit didn't catch his family's medicine, and found two more pharmacies to see a doctor.

But it looks like the result is the same. Even if she reminded her, no one agreed with her statement.

Not for anything else, just because the symptoms are not like it, and the medicinal properties of colicus are too strong!

"It turns out that the trick to doing a good business is here!" Carambola was indignant: "Those who practice medicine have no medical ethics, and the bosses who open the door to do business have no faith and no conscience." In this way, the medical hall that bullies the people and corrupts the peers, where is there any reason to be open. ”

"What does Sister want?"

Star fruit smiled lightly, and the light like a little fox flowed in her eyes: "You take your time." ”

She went to the Rejuvenation Hall again and found Li Langzhong to ask for help: "Doctor, after taking the medicine you prescribed, why did I get more and more serious?" Diarrhea is not only counted, but also unbearable stomach pain. Hurry up and help me take a look at it. ”

Dr. Li pretended to take the pulse, and then brushed the prescription: "Don't worry, all the symptoms will be cured after taking this medicine." You, it's because your body is weak, and the previous patch has stimulated all the poison in you, so the illness is aggravated. ”

"What about this post, it won't ......"

"Don't worry, it's good if the poison comes out." Li Langzhong looked at her twice, and added a taste of ginseng to the pharmacy, and a taste of gastrodia: "Madame's body is weak, I added ginseng gastrodia to make up for your deficiency, the price is a little expensive, but it is good for your health." I can't save this money. ”

Carambola refused: "Forget about ginseng or something......"

"Madame is not a person who can't afford to eat, where can it be counted?" Doctor Yang directly handed the recipe to Yang Chunxiao and said, "Mrs. Zun is thrifty, you have to know how much you want to be a husband." They are still young, they don't make up their bodies, and they are easy to get sick, not to mention, but they are afraid that they will not be good for their children. ”

Those who don't understand medicine and pathology must be frightened by ordinary people. Money is important, but isn't it even more important to have a body and heirs?

Even Yang Chunxiao, who knew the truth, was secretly a little anxious, and persuaded: "If it doesn't work, make up for it, our family doesn't lack this bit of silver, ginseng is a good thing, and there is no harm in eating more." ”

If you go to bargaining, the number is staggering.

"Five and a half!"

The bookkeeper still persuaded with a smile: "Five taels and a half are not expensive, but there are 50-year-old ginseng and good gastrodia in it." Besides, five taels of silver will keep you healthy and your heirs worry-free, no matter how you calculate it, it will be worth it. ”

really has a good mouth, deceiving people, and his face is not red.

Carambola smiled slightly: "That's right." ”

When I took the medicine out, I saw that the ginseng of the 50-year-old year was only the ginseng of the three-year-old low-grade ginseng, and the gastrodia with good color was only of the middle and lower quality. Just this patch of medicine can be worth one or two if it tops the sky.

The real rich and noble families have acquaintances with each other, and those who come to seek medical treatment in person are ordinary people. They can't recognize the quality of medicinal materials, can't distinguish the value of precious medicinal materials, and don't even have the opportunity to see real good ginseng in their lifetime.

But their silver is not easy to come by than that of the rich and noble, and it is more precious.

Carambola was depressed, and saw a group of people around the street, all of whom pointed and pointed at the inside, full of sympathy: "What a filial child, it's a pity."

"If this really follows the red sleeves, it will be ruined for the rest of your life!"
