Chapter 9 Selling Ginseng
After walking for a while, the father and daughter finally walked to the town, and the excitement on the second girl's face can be regarded as being able to see a slightly more prosperous place in this era, which is not like modern times, it is a shopping mall with high-rise buildings, but it also has a unique flavor.
Although the buildings in the town are not gorgeous, they are uniform, and there are bursts of shouting on the roadside.
"Wonton wonton, three cents a bowl, come if you want to eat!"
"People who come from the south and go to the north, people who are tired come to rest, and a bowl of tea costs two cents."
"Sugar gourd, sugar gourd, two cents a string, eat it until your mouth is sweet."
Listening to the shouting and selling, looking at the wontons with thin skin and meat, Erya drooled, touched the empty pockets, and decided to sell the ginseng he brought first, and only when he had money could he buy good things.
Walking forward, looking at where there is a pharmacy, my eyes lit up, and I saw a pharmacy in front of me with three big characters written on it.
Er Ya hurriedly pulled Lin Jianguo and walked into this pharmacy, only to see a young man on the counter, yawning leisurely.
When I looked up, I saw that someone had come in, and was about to come forward to greet him, and when I looked at it, it was a father and daughter, dressed in tatters, and the man was carrying a basket of eggs on his arm, and at first glance he was a poor ghost, and he was sitting on a stool, but he didn't see it.
Lin Jianguo stepped forward, and before he could ask, the guy took a feather duster and slapped it and said, "Go, go, we don't accept eggs, hurry up and go."
When Erya heard this, she stepped forward angrily and said, "Why do you talk like this, we are here to sell ginseng, if you don't want us, we will go to another house."
"Cut, you still have ginseng, have you seen ginseng, hurry up, don't mess up our place."
Erya took out the wild ginseng in her arms, "Blind your eyes, you said I haven't seen ginseng, you see what this is."
When the young man saw such a big ginseng, his eyes were straight, he had never seen such a big ginseng since he started doing this business!
Busy embarrassed said: "Little girl, you look really embarrassed, just now my uncle thought he was still dreaming, you look, you ginseng ......."
Er Yayi interrupted him, "Uncle, I just let you see, but I didn't say I was going to sell it to you, Dad, let's go."
The young man stepped forward and didn't pull it, this is miserable, if the shopkeeper knows, he won't want his money this month.
At this time, there was a "hum", and the shopkeeper's gloomy face came out of the back room.
"Look what you're doing, if you weren't my nephew, I'd have to sweep you out, why don't you hurry up and see which one they sold to, but don't sell it to our rival."
The young man hurriedly ran to follow him, and Lin Jianguo's father and daughter went.
The more Erya came out, the more angry she became, the dog looked at people low, and when she had money, she had to slap the money on the young man's face and vent her evil anger.
This time, Erya learned wisely, so she asked the grandmother who sold tea on the side of the road in advance, "Grandma, I want to ask you, which pharmacy in our town has a good reputation and doesn't deceive people!" ”
The old lady who sold tea saw that this little girl was so young and treated people so kindly, "I will ask the right person if you ask this, "Our town, Qingrentang is the best, Tong Suo is not bullied, you don't go to Le'antang's house, the people of that family, take cheap medicine, sell you at a high price, the most cheating people."
Didn't you go to Le'an Hall just now? Fortunately, he didn't sell it to him, asked for the location of Qingqing Rentang, and after thanking him, he went straight to Qingrentang.
When I arrived at Qingrentang, Erya came to the right place at a glance, the house was cleaned, and the guy on the counter heard that he was here to sell ginseng, and he checked the goods before confirming that it was ginseng.
I can't do such a big business, so let Lin Jianguo's father and daughter sit on the stool and wait for a while, and then trot to find the shopkeeper.
After a while, the shopkeeper came out, fifty or sixty years old, with a long beard, his face looked amiable, his pharmacy not only accepts medicinal materials, but also looks at some incurable diseases, the culture of Chinese medicine has a long history, unique characteristics.
A bowl of medicinal soup and a silver needle can often have an immediate effect, so Chinese medicine has always been regarded as one of the most mysterious medicines in the world.
He Lao was busy seeing a doctor, and when he heard that someone was selling ginseng in front, he asked another doctor to take over first, and then went to the front by himself.
Recently, there was a junior in the family, the son of his old man, who came here to inspect the work and visit himself by the way.
During the conversation, I knew that my old buddy had not been in good health in recent years, and he urgently needed some ginseng to recuperate.
This junior also came here for this matter this time, and I heard that ginseng often appeared here in the past few years, so I came here to try my luck.
As soon as He Lao came over, he saw a little girl of three or four years old, who was chattering with the man next to her, and the man laughed.
"I'm sorry, I'm too late, are you going to sell ginseng? Can you show me? ”。
Lin Jianguo showed him the ginseng, He Lao took it and looked at it, his eyes lit up all of a sudden, it was really wild ginseng, looking at this, it must be one hundred and eighty years old, such a big ginseng, I have never seen it a few times, and what I have seen in recent years is one or two decades.
"How much do you want to sell this ginseng, make a price" He Lao said excitedly, now his old buddy can be saved.
Lin Jianguo has never sold ginseng, he only knows that he who is immersed in planting crops, how can he ever do this thing of negotiating prices with others, and turned his head and looked at his daughter embarrassedly.
Erya opened her mouth and said, "Grandpa, how much do you think our ginseng can sell?" I knew my grandfather wouldn't lie to me and my dad. He Lao looked at him with an innocent look.
Seeing such a clever little girl in front of her calling her grandfather sweetly, He Lao took a serious look at the ginseng again, "Your ginseng is very well excavated, and it looks very good, you see I will give you two hundred yuan, do you think it's okay?" ”
When she heard that she could sell it for so much money, Erya jumped up happily, "Thank you, grandpa, next time we have ginseng, we will sell it to you."
This child, she thinks that ginseng is a white radish in the vegetable field, one digging is accurate, in recent years, the mountain has been seriously damaged, and this kind of wild thing is becoming more and more rare.
The guy prepared money for them, He Laole grabbed a handful of fruit candy and gave it to Erya, the more he looked at it, the more he liked it, "You have something good next time, but you must think about grandpa first"!
While talking, the guy prepared the money, and the thick stack made Lin Jianguo excited, he didn't know how to reach out and take it, he had never seen so much money.
"Okay, grandpa, we still have to go to sell, let's go first, goodbye grandpa."
