Confused took out a small purse from his arms, and embroidered a bright red flower on the purse. This is an object used by the fish closely, and the residual fragrance of the fish is still left in the confused hands.

The shopkeeper took the purse, took out the contents and looked at it, his eyes were shining, and he immediately put it in the purse, and arched his hand: "Please go to the back hall to talk about it." ”

Through the hall to the backyard, I saw that all kinds of medicinal herbs were spread all over the ground, some were being dried, and some were semi-finished products. The air was filled with the strong smell of medicine.

Coming to the hall, there is a picture of Shennong tasting a hundred herbs hanging in the center of the main hall, and a pair of couplets on both sides: there was a Shennong tasting a hundred herbs, and the lower couplet: it will leave good medicine to help the people.

The tables and chairs in the hall are made of yellow rosewood, which is strong and durable, and there are patterns engraved on it that are Huang Qi's question, and the characters are portrayed vividly. The shopkeeper made a gesture of please, and said: "The contemptible Chen Ning is the shopkeeper of this Jiude Hall, and there are many people outside who can't observe carefully, so let me take a look." Spring flowers, tea for distinguished guests. ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw a little maid coming up with two teacups, bowing slightly to the confusion, putting the teacups away, and slowly withdrawing.

Chen Ning made a gesture of invitation and said, "It's hot, drink tea to quench your thirst." ”

I was confused and picked up the tea and was about to drink it, when I saw Chen Ning impatiently took out the ginseng. He put down the tea bowl.

Chen Ning's eyes lit up, and he trembled and took out the ginseng in his purse, and his gentle movements were as if this ginseng was jade, and if he used a little force, it would be broken. I looked at it, smelled it and smelled it, took a deep breath with an intoxicated face, and said, "Good quality, the old man has never seen such a high-grade mountain ginseng after living a Jiazi." ”

The ginseng on the table, the taproot is only two inches thick, the roots are slender and many, the elders have more than a foot, and the top of the ginseng is densely covered with horizontal rings. When you take it out of your purse, there is a faint fragrance. Chen Ning didn't dare to expose the ginseng to the air for a long time, so he took out a wooden box and put the ginseng in it and kept it properly. Only then did he say, "I don't know what the little brother asks for?"

Confused: "Since the shopkeeper knows the goods, let's open the skylight and say bright words, this ginseng has a life span of more than 100 years, even if I say that he has 200 years, it is not an exaggeration." You are more transparent and give a real price. ”

Chen Ning pondered for a moment, thought for a while, and said, "Little brother, your ginseng is worth a lot of money, and ordinary rich and noble families can't afford it. It is not an exaggeration to prolong the life of this ginseng for three years. I bid a thousand pieces of silver, but I don't know that this price can get into the eyes of the little brother. ”

When I heard that it was worth a thousand lines of silver, I was also greatly surprised, and I thought that this ginseng would be up to the sky if I bought a hundred brightness. Calm down, calm down, it seems that there is still room for bargaining. Confused, he said: "When I entered the store just now, I looked at the couplet on your and felt that it was meaningful, 'But pray that people in the world are not sick, why worry about the medicine and dust on the shelf' Although your couplet is a good pair, I am afraid it is not appropriate for businessmen." But seeing that the business in the store is booming, I am afraid that this couplet in front of the door has not been a lot of strength. ”

As soon as Chen Ning heard this, he was surprised. The little boy's city is extremely deep, and ordinary wild people in the deep mountains will definitely be frightened stupid by the thousand lines of silver they reported. This kid talked about the business of his pharmacy, which was not simple.

"Haha, it's all because of the help of the neighbors on the left and right that the store can barely survive. Chen Ningpi said with a smile.

Barely getting by, I don't believe in this with the ghost, since ancient times, the profits of the pharmacy business are simply outrageous, all of them are the hearts of the doctor's parents, if you meet a ruthless person who kills you, it is not too much. The more famous you are, the better your business will be.

"There are four or five pharmacies as big as yours in the capital, not to mention those smaller pharmacies, how can you do it if you don't have a treasure of the town? Confused temptation: "The greater the reputation, the more prosperous it will be for your business." Buying medicine and curing diseases is to go to these places with good reputations, which ones are good in medicinal materials, and which ones are good in traditional Chinese medicine and have their own people to judge. Come to think of it, since you have opened such a big store, Langzhong's medical skills are on a par with several others. Then you can only make a fuss about medicinal herbs. ”

Being confused and fooled like this, Chen Ning suddenly became enlightened, rare things are expensive, not to mention such a century-old treasure, if he takes it as his own and becomes the treasure of the town store, he will definitely be able to suppress the arrogance of several others.

Chen Ning said: "The little brother has said so much, I am embarrassed to be hypocritical, how about you look at two thousand taels of silver?"

Confused and chuckled in his heart, good guy, it rose by a thousand taels casually. It seems that there is still room for appreciation, so don't hurry up and slow down.

Confused smiled: "Having said so much, I will moisten my throat." ”

Chen Ning said: "It's old and negligent, please use tea." ”

Confused picked up the tea, tasted it carefully, and just took a sip. The fragrance is overflowing, and the tea in the teacup is clear, but the fragrance is not bad at all, although I don't know what kind of tea, I think it must not be ordinary.

Putting down the teacup, he said in a daze: "Just now you said that this ginseng can last for three years, I don't dare to guarantee it, but I dare to pack a ticket for this ginseng to have the effect of hanging life." If they are an old ancestor in the courtyard and urgently need this century-old ginseng to hang their lives, if you offer this treasure and form this relationship with the nobleman, it will be of great benefit to you. ”

The point of confusion is the word human affection, how many people have soared because of the word human affection throughout the ages. The grace of the ancients should be reciprocated by springs. It's about the difficulty of repaying favors.

Hearing this, Chen Ning stood up suddenly, and said to the confusion: "The distinguished guest woke up the person in the dream with a word, and the old man was really fascinated by the ghost. Let the distinguished guests see the joke, you old ginseng, I bid five thousand taels. ”

Confused also got up and arched his hand: "You are old and transparent, and I am not hypocritical." Five thousand taels is. ”

"Wait a minute, I'll go get the money. And when he had said that, he went and fetched the money.

Confused looked around the hall and looked carefully left and right, and the hall was antique. exudes a faint elegance. It didn't take long for Chen Ning to come back, holding a thick stack of papers in his hand.

"Honor, look at it, here is a silver ticket of five thousand taels. With this silver ticket, you can redeem the silver at any silver bank in the East Japan. Chen Ning handed over the stack of silver tickets.

Confused in the hand, look left and right, the paper is very thick and textured to the touch, and the top is written with the Dongri treasure banknote. In the middle is written "exchange for one hundred taels of official silver with this ticket", and next to it is written the ticket number "Tianzi No. 1345". In a daze, he took the good silver ticket into his arms, and arched his hand: "I can trust your old credit, and I will nag you." ”

Chen Ning arched his hand and said, "You're polite, you're polite." Harmony makes money. ”

"I still have something to do to stay for a long time, so I take my leave. ”

At the door of the pharmacy, Chen Ning sent the confusion to the door and said: "He still has good goods in the future, and I hope to remember the small shop." ”

Confused and smiled: "The shopkeeper's wealth is large, if there is a next time, he will definitely come to bother the shopkeeper." ”

Sending away the confusion, Chen Ning returned to the store and put the century-old ginseng into the dark warehouse. Stroking the brocade box, Chen Ning's heart turned over a huge wave, and some rumors spread in the community, if there are some rumors about this century-old mountain ginseng, which noble person will definitely come to the door in person, and then it will be when Jiudetang is famous.

rushed back to the cloth shop in a hurry, but saw the shopkeeper handing over the cloth just now to the three women. immediately rushed up to force the cloth back, and shouted at the shopkeeper: "This cloth is what I like." ”

The woman was angry and her apricot eyes widened, and a girl dressed as a maid next to her spat out a cannon in her mouth: "Who are you, you dare to grab what my young lady likes, our young lady is a golden branch and jade leaf." It's hard to be alive and crooked, so I'll tell you. You savage, don't hurry up and kneel down and kowtow to our young lady to make amends. Otherwise, if you call your family to beat you to death on the street, even the government will not dare to take care of it. When the time comes, the corpses will be thrown into the graves, and they will be gnawed clean by wild dogs. ”

Confused, he turned his head to look at the three of them, the girl who was called Miss by the maid, combed her hair in a hanging bun, wore a hollow orchid bead hairpin, and her delicate face was too long if it was too long, and if it was too short, if it was minus one point. The facial features are upright, the pink peach blossoms, the cherry mouth is slightly open as if surprised, the big bright eyes are full of autumn water, and the moth eyebrows are slightly frowned as if dissatisfied. The body is graceful and light, wearing a pink embroidered gold trimmed skirt, and the waist is tied into an elegant bow with water blue silk soft smoke. This time it is stupid to be confused.

"Dirt buns in the countryside, what you see, you will gouge out your eyes when you look at them. The girl next to her said arrogantly.

"Why, this cloth is my first favorite, but I just have something to do and go out temporarily. I said, old man, you can't just come out and stop it. And the shopkeeper, you are not kind, how long have I been out, and you will resell this piece of cloth to others. ”

The woman said to the maid beside her, "Red flower, don't pay attention to this wild man. Let Xiao Er pack the cloth back. The woman spoke softly, and her tone was spitting. Those who listened were all comfortable.

"Xiao Er, you also heard it, my young lady sent a message and sent this cloth to the house. "Red Flower Road.

Grasp the confused cloth in your left hand and take out the silver ticket with your right hand. With a "snap", he slammed the silver ticket on the counter and said, "No need to look for it." ”

The woman said indifferently: "I will pay him ten times the price." Then he walked out of the store with the two girls.

The little second stood there as if he was intoxicated, and muttered, "The eldest lady of the Xu family actually talked to me." ”

"I've come back to my soul, I haven't seen everyone else gone, and you're still crazy here. Confused, he unceremoniously interrupted the shopkeeper's train of thought.

The shopkeeper immediately strengthened the cloth from his confused hands, and said sharply: "This is something that the eldest lady of the Xu family likes, even if you set it first, it also needs to be handed over." Guest, you're looking at something else, this piece of cloth really can't be sold to you. ”

The old monkey, who was still sitting on the side watching the excitement just now, stood up, pointed to the cloth on it, and said, "Give me one of the pale cloth." It's getting late, we have other things to do. Be sharp. ”

The shopkeeper hurriedly took off the cloth on the container and said: "It's not a small shopkeeper, the Xu family is the first official eunuch in the city, and the owner of the Xu family is the prime minister of this dynasty, and he is powerful and powerful, and he is above 10,000 people under one person." The emperor has the merit of correcting it. Our shop is small and can't afford to mess with the Xu family. I also hope that my father-in-law Haihan. ”

Confused, he took the silver ticket in his hand and said, "You heard it, the eldest lady of the Xu family bought it for ten times the price." I'm bidding a hundred taels. ”

The shopkeeper's face immediately turned pale. A mere piece of fabric was sold to the Xu family for a thousand taels, and he wanted to get out of the Xu family alive.

Confused sneered: "Pack the rest of the fine silk for me." Is a hundred taels here enough?"

The shopkeeper with a colorless face had no owner at this time, and he earned less than 1,000 taels of silver as a coolie for ten lifetimes. The shopkeeper numbly took off the brightly colored silk on the container one by one, although the quality was not as good as the one just now. It also feels better than linen. After buying the cloth, the old monkey continued to purchase other daily necessities in a daze.

The confusion of five thousand taels of silver is to purchase everything recklessly, and the clouds are swept everywhere he goes. After finding a grocery store, Shengsheng swept away the contents of the store. Soon rumors spread among the people that a mallet would buy something when it saw it, and no matter how high or low it was, he would not bargain.

Finally, the old monkey came to the blacksmith shop in a daze, and the old monkey arched his hand and said, "Shopkeeper land, can you sell weapons?"

In the blacksmith shop, the blacksmith struck the red-hot iron and sparks were shining, and when he saw that business came to the door, he put down the hammer and said, "What kind of weapon does the guest officer want?"

"Fifty sets of knives, ten pairs of short swords, and twenty spears. Twenty pairs of longbows. Five hundred arrows. The old monkey reported what he wanted.

The blacksmith said: "My husband is so generous, I will follow this business, the knife will be five taels of silver, the short sword will be four taels and one handle, the spear will be three or two, the longbow will be six taels and a pair, and the arrow feather will be counted as one hundred taels for you." Five hundred and seventy taels in total. Pay a deposit of 100 taels first. Tomorrow you can come and get all the weapons and pay the rest of the money. ”

"Good. The old monkey agreed.
