Chapter 13: Buying (Ask for Comments!) )

The purpose of this descent is not just to buy food.

Rice, medicines, clothes for spring and summer......

There are actually some silver coins left in the view, but there are a lot of things purchased this time, Chen Yu is a little worried that there will be something insufficient, so before starting to buy, he is going to go to the pharmacy to sell the orange silver grass and long-eared white mushroom in his waist bag.

By the way, first grab and wrap the most important Baiyun powder dispensing, and save a moment of forgetting if something goes wrong.

There are big families behind several medicine shops in the county, and the price is actually very different, so Chen Yu chose a familiar one - the predecessor and the old Taoist priest also sold wild herbs in this shop.

Pingjiu Medicine Building.

The medicine maid was greeting the guests, and when he saw Chen Yu coming in, he hurriedly stepped forward.

"This Daoist, but you want to buy medicine?"

He waved his hand and went straight to the point to explain what he meant.

"It's not to buy medicine, Poor Dao accidentally got two herbs when he entered the mountain not long ago, and it is useless to think that it is useless to be idle, so I want to ask the price of the pharmacy, if it is suitable, I will take advantage of the fact that the medicine has not been exhausted."

Hearing this, the medicine maid answered and took Chen Yu to a room in the medicine shop.

As soon as I stepped in, I felt a warm pavement.

A Feiyun Dading was placed in the center of the room, and there was a red fire inside, reflecting the brightness of the room.

Chen Yu saw that there were a lot of people inside, except for a few medicine servants and medicine servants who walked back and forth and held porcelain plates, most of them were gray-clothed horse coats, wrapped in fur, and dressed as hunters.

He carries a dagger at his waist, a longbow on his back, or a mountain sword on his shoulder.

It's all fully armed.

In the corner, there are a lot of bamboo baskets and hoops, and when I took two steps closer, I saw that there were mostly fresh herbs stained with soil and sawdust.

There are a few leaves with blood on the rhizomes.

This is the real herb picker.

The mountains are deep, not only all kinds of medicinal herbs, but also man-eating beasts, harmful birds of prey, poisonous insects, snakes and pythons are not lacking.

Chen Yu no longer wandered around, and went straight to the counter under the leadership of the medicine maid, and took out the orange silver grass and long-eared white mushroom.

Although the amount is not as good as others, the middle-aged man in charge still has a bright eye and a light in his eyes.

"The root body is huge, the ears are triangular, and the horns are four inches long."

"This snow mushroom is of the highest quality!"

The long-eared white mushroom is often called snow mushroom because of the snow-white root.

In the end, the person in charge is well-informed, and he can see at a glance that this snow mushroom is in good condition, and it is a good thing to nourish yang energy!

As for the dry orange silver grass on the side, it was all ignored by the other party, in the Pingjiu Medicine Building, there were no less than 100 kinds of medicinal herbs every day, even if it was seen that this orange silver grass was ripe, but it was only a leaf and stem, and there was no fruit, it was really nothing.

"Xiaodao Chief, everyone is a regular customer, Lao Xu, I don't want you, let alone you. You must also know that this snow mushroom is not bad, but there are still a lot of stocks here in the pharmacy that have not been used up. ”

The two have dealt with each other several times, and the last time Chen Yu went down the mountain to sell medicine, it was through each other's hands.

This person has great eyesight and high ability to distinguish medicines, but he always likes to pick and choose. Regardless of whether it is raw or cooked, it will be slaughtered at every turn.

Sure enough, the other party said that the stock of the pharmacy was large and the supply was oversupply. However, before Chen Yu could speak, he added, "But recently, the county government Old Lady Zhang has accepted the sixteenth concubine room. The owner of the medicine building was thinking about what to send, and the dry ones in the warehouse did not show their sincerity. ”

"Fresh is what people like!"

always felt that the other party was hinting at something, Chen Yu was silent, only knocked on the wooden case, and reminded the other party to talk less nonsense.

Then I saw the fingers of the master crackling on the abacus for a while, and the next moment, as if gritting his teeth and enduring the pain, he raised his finger and gave a 'high price'.

"A tael of silver, how?"

"......", Chen Yu squinted, glanced at the other party with the eyes of a fool, and said the first thing he said after entering the house, "Two two." ”

"Dao Chief, you are here." The boss still wants to struggle.

"Two, two, one penny."

"Little Brother Chen, for the sake of my relationship with Daochang Li"

"Two taels and one cent."

"Okay! We've got this medicine! ”

In the painful look of the flesh that was smiling but not smiling, Chen Yu took the money bag, weighed it twice, and made a noise.

A total of two or four dollars.

Two taels of long-eared white mushrooms, and four coins of sun-dried orange and silver grass.

The currency of this world is also dominated by copper coins, but it differs in exchange rate and purchasing power.

One tael of silver can be exchanged for ten coins of broken silver, and one penny of broken silver can be used as ten cents, which is equivalent to two hundred coppers, and one copper is one penny.

That is to say, one tael of silver is worth two thousand wen.

Of course, this exchange rate changes from time to time, sometimes it is difficult to exchange silver, no matter how high it is one or two hundred wen, it is rare, and sometimes it is only worth one thousand seven or eight hundred.

The definite number varies.

The purchasing power of coins is related to the age of the year, and in the years when there are abundant products and no natural disasters, you can buy a large bun with meat filling for four cents. Among them, the heaviest pork filling is only two pennies. And if there are frequent droughts and floods, wars and turmoil, let alone meat buns, even rice and grain can rise to hundreds of wen a catty!

A tael of silver is worth less than three or five catties of corn.

But it certainly wasn't there yet, although he didn't think it would be long.

"Two taels of silver, plus what is left from before, there are about thirteen or fourteen taels of broken silver in total."

Estimating his balance, Chen Yu thought about it, and after walking out of the house, he did not leave the pharmacy directly, but recruited the medicine maid and asked the general price of Baiyunsan's medicine.

Everything else is fine, but there seems to be some problems with the herbs.

"Dao Chief, there is not much stock of Liusonggen, if you can wait a little longer, the price will be lower."

is different from the greedy and cheap master, the medicine maid in the pharmacy is quite dedicated and does not speak indiscriminately.

It's just that Chen Yu doesn't want to wait too long, he knows that Liusonggen grows at the end of summer, and there are still many months before this time, and it is estimated that there are no other pharmacies in Pingjiu Pharmacy. When the pharmacy is in stock, God knows how long it will take.

"Just grab two dollars."

"Okay, Daoist, wait a while."

Another quarter of an hour passed, and he grabbed seven kinds of medicines, all of which were grabbed in the amount he said.

Chen Yu took it in his hand and walked out of the door.

It's not that I don't want to catch more, on the one hand, there are only four orange and silver fruits, and there are at most two pairs of them, and it is estimated that there will still be leftover of these seven kinds of medicines. On the other hand, two pairs of white clouds were enough for him to use for a long time.

Money is limited, so you can save a little.

This is also the reason why he didn't go directly to the pharmacy to buy oranges and silver fruits.

However, Chen Yu still bought something else.

It hangs on the waist - a bag full of medicines.

The medicine is not valuable, especially the common ones, and he did not buy them for the sake of planting, but for the purpose of experimenting with the spiritual machine. Ordinary white roots can become strange under the catalysis of the spirit, but what about these herbs?

With curiosity, Chen Yu planned to try it when he went back. It just so happened that after so many days, the spiritual energy in the sea of consciousness had accumulated several more grains, and it would not be in short supply.

After buying the medicine, the next step is to buy clothes and food rations.

Recalling the location of the grain store, Chen Yu was walking, and there was a sudden commotion on the side of the street.

"Congratulations to the old mother on her birthday! He is coming! ”

He turned his head and saw a crowd of poor people in ragged clothes gathered together, kneeling or prostrate, all facing one in front of him.

The man wore a white veil and a moon-white robe, and his posture was graceful, his exposed neck was as slender as jade, and his arms were slender and white, like snow.

It is not difficult to guess that this one in front of you is the lotus saintess in these mouths.

Chen Yu looked at it, at first he was just curious, but the more he looked at it, the more strange the look on his face became.
