Chapter 113 Trading

Xia Aiguo's eyes lit up, and he nodded solemnly and said, "Okay." ”

Harbin is still very lively, two sisters and brothers walking on the street, Xia Zhi suddenly saw a Chinese medicine shop, although now they are advocating Western medicine, but there are also many people who recognize Chinese medicine when they see a doctor.

On the summer solstice, you can still remember that there are three treasures in the Northeast, ginseng, deer antler velvet and mink.

In later generations, pure wild ginseng can hardly be found, even if there is, the price is very high, and the loss of medicinal effect is also serious, since you came to the Northeast in the 60s, the summer solstice wants to store a few ginseng, maybe it can save your life in the future.

Moreover, the elderly in the family are getting older, and when the time comes, they can use ginseng to make wine for them to drink, which can also replenish their bodies.

Xia Zhi pulled Xia Aiguo and went into the Chinese medicine store.

There was an old gentleman with a beard standing in the store, and when he saw his sister and brother coming in, the old gentleman raised his eyelids and asked, "You don't look like you are sick, do you want to buy any medicinal herbs?" ”

Xia Aiguo pulled Xia Zhi and said, "Sister, what are we doing this afternoon?" ”

Xia Zhi whispered, "Buy some ginseng and go back to make up for our father." ”

Xia Aiguo was surprised, "Ginseng is precious, sister, you don't have much money now, let's talk about it later." ”

As he spoke, he patted his chest and said, "When I can make money in the future, I'll buy it for my father." ”

Xia Zhi said, "Don't worry, my sister is rich." ”

Xia Zhi only had less than a thousand yuan left in her hand, but Xia Zhi was not in a hurry, because she had a lot of space and materials, and when she really ran out of money, she disguised herself and took things to the black market to sell, and she could sell them for a lot of money.

Xia Zhi smiled and asked, "Sir, do you have mountain ginseng, deer antler antlers, and snow clam oil here?" ”

The old man stared at Xia Zhi, "Girl, although you are pregnant, you are still young and energetic, so you don't need to eat these things." ”

Xia Zhi was surprised, she didn't expect the old man to see that she was pregnant.

Xia Aiguo exclaimed on the side, "Eldest sister, are you pregnant?" ”

Xia Zhi glanced at Xia Aiguo and said, "Be quiet, what's the fuss, your brother-in-law and I have been married for more than two months, isn't it normal to be pregnant?" ”

Xia Aiguo said with a tangled face, "But... But eldest sister, now that you have a body, how can you still go..."

Without waiting for Xia Aiguo to finish speaking, Xia Zhi glared at him, and Xia Aiguo shut up in disgust.

Xia Zhi said to the old man, "Old man." ”

The old man hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Don't you dare to call me old gentleman now, you can just call me an old comrade." ”

Xia Zhi smiled, "That old comrade, I bought it for the old people in the family." ”

The old man suddenly said, "That's right." He said, "Mountain ginseng is a bit expensive, how many do you want?" ”

Xia Zhidao, "How many do you have here?" How many years are they're all in? ”

The old man said, "I have 50 to 100 years old ginseng here, and three ginseng that are more than 100 years old, but the price is not affordable for ordinary people." ”

The summer solstice is bright, more than 100 years of old ginseng, this is a rarity!

Xia Zhi asked him directly, "How much does that mountain ginseng that is more than 100 years old cost?" ”

The old man smiled and said, "The girl's current business is all state-run, let me tell you the real price, this hundred years of ginseng must be at least this amount." With that, the old man stretched out a palm.

Xia Solstice said, "Five hundred yuan? The old man nodded.

Xia Aiguo's eyes widened, and he hurriedly stretched out his hand to pull Xia Zhi's clothes, and whispered, "Sister, a mountain ginseng costs more than 500?" It's too expensive! No way... No, you can't buy it. ”

At this time, the monthly salary of ordinary workers was only twenty or thirty yuan, five hundred yuan, and it would take nearly two years without eating or drinking to buy a mountain ginseng.

500 yuan was a huge amount of money in this era, but in later generations, the price of a hundred years of wild ginseng was at least a few million.

Many of the so-called century-old wild ginseng are not necessarily real wild ginseng, but they just borrowed the gimmick of wild ginseng, and the real wild ginseng is almost extinct in later generations, and it is all artificially planted.

The money in Xia Zhi's hand is only enough to buy a mountain ginseng that is more than 100 years old, but looking at Xia Aiguo's nervous appearance, Xia Zhi knows that he can't buy it in front of Xia Aiguo.

Moreover, three ginseng that is more than 100 years old is really rare, and Xia Zhi really wants to buy it.

Xia Zhi thought for a while and said, "Old comrade, you can bring me a 50-year-old wild ginseng." ”

The old man said, "Okay." ”

The old man turned around and carefully took out a wooden box from a wooden drawer, opened it, looked at Xia Zhi and said, "This is a 50-year-old mountain ginseng, don't worry, old man, I will never lie to you." ”

Xia Zhi smiled, "Old comrade, I believe in you. ”

"Hey." The old man smiled and nodded.

Xia Zhi bought some snow clam oil and deer antler horns, and asked the old man to wrap them, spending a total of one hundred and eighty yuan.

When he walked out of the pharmacy, Xia Aiguo said again and again, "Sister, you can spend money too much." ”

Xia Zhi smiled, "No way, your brother-in-law spoils me." ”

Seeing Xia Zhi's smug appearance, Xia Aiguo originally wanted to blurt out what he said, but he swallowed it back into his stomach, and couldn't help but show a smile on his face.

Although life in the future is difficult, Xia Aiguo does not feel the slightest fear in Xia Zhi, only the expectation and joy of meeting her husband.

The two returned to the guest house, and Xia Aiguo said to Xia Zhi, "Sister, I'm still a little sleepy, I'll go sleep again." ”

Xia Zhi said, "Okay, when I have lunch, I'll call you." ”

Xia Aiguo nodded and entered his room, while Xia Zhi went into the room and changed into relatively ordinary and inconspicuous clothes and went out, with a headscarf wrapped around his face.

From the girl at the front desk, Xia Zhi inquired that there are several factories not far from the train station.

People in the countryside may have no money, but workers in the cities have money, but they can't buy good things.

Xia Zhi walked directly for half an hour to the factory area of that area.

Not far from the factory, Xia Zhi stood in a small alley, looking back and forth at the people passing by.

Suddenly, an elderly woman with a loving face and an empty vegetable basket in her hand hurriedly entered Xia Zhi's sight, and Xia Zhi plucked up the courage to step forward and said, "Auntie." ”

The woman glanced at Xia Solstice in disbelief and said, "Girl, what's the matter?" ”

Xia Zhi lowered his voice, making his voice deliberately hoarse, and asked, "Do you want food?" ”

When the eldest lady heard this, her eyes lit up, she looked left and right, took the initiative to pull Xia Zhi into the small alley, and asked, "Girl, do you have food here?" ”

Xia Zhi said in a low tone, "Auntie, I have rice, noodles, and milk powder, what do you want?" ”

The eldest lady gasped in surprise, "Do you have any milk powder?" ”

Xia Zhi nodded affirmatively and said, "Both." ”

The summer solstice only stays here for one day and leaves tomorrow, so exposure is unlikely.

The eldest lady asked, "How much is a pound of rice?" Do you want food stamps? ”
