Chapter Fifty-Nine: Five Hundred Taels?
"Haha! Your little baby has a sharp mouth, which is right, if our Rejuvenation Hall doesn't give you a high price, it will be bullying you a little baby? At this moment, another man came out of the back room, touching his beard and smiling. I saw that his sideburns were slightly white, wearing an indigo cocoon silk straight robe, a wide cyan belt around his waist, and a jade ring similar to Hetian jade was hanging, and this person was laughing and walking towards Gu Chengyu and them.
Gu Chengyu didn't have to think about it to know who it was, it seemed that he was obviously in the house, but Master Zhang said that he was not there, which shows that his character is not good. Dongzi next to him squeezed over and whispered in Gu Chengyu's ear that this was Shopkeeper Liu.
"Master Zhang, honeysuckle is a scarce product in the Rejuvenation Hall recently, the price has been high, you also heard this little baby say, the Rejuvenation Hall has always been a child, if the quality is good, then the selling price is understandable! Of course, I know that Master Zhang is also for the sake of the patients, and the harvest is expensive, and the sale is naturally expensive. Shopkeeper Liu slapped him first and gave him a sweet date. This Zhang Yang just likes to go against him, originally he didn't come to the medical hall was another director, who knew that the original shopkeeper was transferred to Fucheng by his master, so he sent the second shopkeeper of Fucheng down to be the shopkeeper of the county, he was also happy, rather be a chicken head, not a phoenix tail! Who knows, this Zhang Yang thought that the original shopkeeper was gone, and he would be able to improve, but he came, of course he was not convinced. Since then, he has been against him everywhere, which makes him annoyed. But this time the matter was related to the reputation of the Rejuvenation Hall, and he had to help talk.
Master Zhang was taken aback by the suddenness of the shopkeeper Liu, presumably he had already listened to what he said just now, this shopkeeper Liu was shrewd, and he couldn't grasp the handle all the time, which was really annoying. He flicked his sleeves and left without saying anything.
"But you want to sell medicinal herbs? Bring the herbs and talk to me inside! There are a lot of people outside, so I'm afraid it's a little inconvenient. Shopkeeper Liu lifted the curtain and took the lead into the inner room.
"Little brother, then go in! I'm going to work too, or I'll be scolded later. Dongzi was relieved to see Gu Chengyu and the others finally saw the shopkeeper.
"Brother Dongzi, call me Xiaobao! My family calls me that, thank you so much for Brother Dongzi this time! Brother Dongzi is really a good person. Gu Chengyu is sincerely grateful to Dongzi, this is an enthusiastic young man, I hope that the second shopkeeper will not implicate his anger on him.
"You're welcome, you're not from the county, are you? If you don't know the place well, it's nothing to help. Besides, I didn't really help. I'm going to get busy! Dongzi was a little shy and trotted back to do things.
"Please sit down and have a sip of tea first." Shopkeeper Liu asked Daddy Gu and them to sit down, and he sat on the main seat himself, and poured a cup of tea for Daddy Gu. After walking for so long, don't talk about Daddy Gu, even Gu Chengyu is also a little thirsty, what comes out of this teapot is herbal tea, Daddy Gu and they can't be polite, let alone worry about the fact that this is a tea bowl, they picked up the tea bowl and drank it all, Gu Chengyu also picked up the teacup and drank a few sips.
Shopkeeper Liu smiled and watched them finish drinking, and refilled another glass before talking about business. "I've seen it just now, it's really good quality, I don't know how much you want to sell it for a catty?"
Now that I've seen the Lord, then Honeysuckle is not the most important thing. "Shopkeeper Liu, in fact, this time, it was Li Yuanfeng and Li Langzhong who introduced us over, saying that he and you are old acquaintances, let us come here to sell, Liu Zhan Cabinet will not lose us." Gu Chengyu felt that it was more reliable to bring out Li Langzhong first.
"Oh? Do you know Yuanfeng? He hasn't been seeing me for three years. I thought he had forgotten about me! If it weren't for his stubbornness, he insisted on going to that small village, otherwise he would have risen step by step, and maybe he would have arrived in the capital. He had only seen him three years ago, and although they were both of them almost old enough to know their destiny, the old boy's temperament had not changed.
When Gu Chengyu saw him mention Li Langzhong, Shopkeeper Liu looked nostalgic, and fell into memories, it seems that Li Langzhong is also a person with a story! Gu Chengyu thought that it was not too early, and he had to interrupt the memories of Shopkeeper Liu.
"Li Langzhong is the only Langzhong in our village, and his life is naturally good. Actually, we have another thing to do today. Daddy, get your stuff out. "Let's talk about selling ginseng after we have implemented it.
"Hey!" Father Gu took out the ginseng wrapped in cloth on his chest and spread it out in front of Shopkeeper Liu. "Shopkeeper Liu, this is the ginseng we found when we went up the mountain to pick honeysuckle, and we have asked Li Langzhong to see it, saying that it has been more than 80 years, you can take a look." Daddy Gu didn't dare to tell Gu Chengyu about his dream of the baby, and no one could tell him about the origin of his little treasure.
"Oh? Let me see. Shopkeeper Liu saw that what Father Gu put on the table was really ginseng, and he was also interested, so he picked up the ginseng and took a closer look. Well, the ginseng is in excellent condition, the ginseng whiskers are complete, and it has just been pulled out of the soil not long ago, and the torso is a little thick, and it is already about to form a human form. Even he had to admit that if it wasn't less than a hundred years old, someone would want it if it was sold for two thousand taels. It's a pity!
"Your ginseng is indeed excellent, but you are planning to sell it to me? If so, then say the number. Shopkeeper Liu carefully put down the ginseng, and when he saw that the ginseng was wrapped in an old and faded coarse cloth, he couldn't help but shake his head, what a tyrannical thing!
"Shopkeeper Liu, we came all the way to sell ginseng, Li Langzhong recommended to us that Shopkeeper Liu is fair and will never lower the price for no reason, and we also believe in the reputation of Huichun Hall. This ginseng also asks Shopkeeper Liu to look at it and give a price, we don't understand this, so you can say the number! "Gu Chengyu doesn't offer them a price, this is a loss, since Li Langzhong introduced them, it must not let them suffer, right?
"You little baby is shrewd. Since you Yuanfeng introduced him, I can't save his face. So be it! Presumably you also know the approximate price, no matter how good your ginseng is, but its vintage is there, and it is only more than 400 taels at most. However, you are also lucky, there happens to be a large family that needs to find a hundred years of ginseng into medicine, although your one is not more than a hundred years, but I am afraid that the effect of this ginseng is not much worse, I will give you a whole five hundred taels, this is already the highest price I offered. What do you think? Are you still satisfied? Shopkeeper Liu also saw that the quality of this ginseng was really good, he checked it carefully, although he had not tasted it, presumably the medicinal effect must be far better than those ginseng that were more than 80 years old, and it was okay to give 500 taels.
