Chapter 76: The Knowledgeable and the Ignorant

Years ago, Bianjing City was very cold, and the cold air crawled down the skin, as if it was about to burrow into the cracks of the bones.

Xin Yi still felt cold even after wearing a lot of clothes, but fortunately, there were three thoughts attached to her like a little jacket, a warm little person...... I fell asleep in my arms.

They didn't go back to Zhangjia Village immediately, but the eldest brother, who was tired of driving, went to the medicine hall first.

The most convenient place to go back to the village is still the Sun family pharmacy, the shopkeeper Dong Dahai is still detained in Kaifeng Mansion, and I don't know if it can be put back intact, and who is taking care of the pharmacy now.

As the carriage approached, Xin Yi left the three children in the car, told the coachman to watch, and got out of the car alone.

The pharmacy was very quiet, a young man of little age sat behind the counter, in his twenties, wearing a shirt, turning the abacus crackling, two little girls in soap cloth shirts and skirts sat on the side peeling melon seeds, and some of them were talking and laughing from time to time.

When she entered the door, she didn't see anyone taking care of her, so she knocked lightly on the door, "Shopkeeper, buy medicine." ”

The young man looked up, his lips were red and his teeth were white, his face was green, and he looked like a scholar who had entered Beijing to take the exam.

"What medicine does the little lady want to buy?"

The new shopkeeper is very polite, much better than Dong Dahai at the beginning.

Xin Yi had already thought about the medicinal materials to buy on the way to come, in fact, there are only those trauma medicines at the moment, Fu Jiuqu is right, there is nothing in the palace, some are medical Confucians in the times, not to mention that no matter how powerful the injury medicine is, it is nothing more than swelling and pain relief, muscle growth and decay, the human body itself determines that the injury has to go through a cycle to heal......

She also did her best to make medicine for injuries.

In addition, she is going to use strychnine.

Nux nux is highly toxic, in fact, it is also a good medicinal material for wound healing and pain relief, it is toxic and can relieve pain, bitter cold and diarrhea are used to reduce swelling, hemostasis and muscle building is a good product, it depends on how to use it.

She just had the season's ripe strychnine in her hand, which had been dried and ready for medicine after being concocted.

Thinking of this, Xin Yi couldn't help but smile on his face.

"Panax notoginseng blood exhaustion, Angelica angelica, Wujiapi northern mustard, Panshan dragon grass black ......"

Xin Yi reported a string of names for medicinal herbs, and finally smiled slightly.

"Two pounds each."

She didn't buy medicinal herbs to use them all at once, so she prepared more, and the amount was different from that of others.

The young shopkeeper was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and seemed to be a little surprised.

"Is the little lady used to make wound medicine?"

As soon as he heard it, he knew how to do it, Xin Yi smiled and nodded, and didn't say much.

The young shopkeeper looked at her, but he was very talkative, he put down the abacus, opened the counter partition with his robe, and came out of it, and took out two boxes of plasters with different surfaces on the shelf.

"Our pharmacy has ready-made painkiller and muscle-building cream, can the lady buy it and try it?"

Xin Yi raised his eyebrows, shook his head and smiled.

"Is the ointment unsalable?"

The young shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, and smiled embarrassedly, "Xiaosheng is abrupt, don't be surprised." However, the eldest girl of Cao Mansion just came to buy it, and it was this ointment. Have you ever heard of the matter of Yujie? The eldest girl Cao bought it for the king of Guangling County, and the nobles all came to buy the ointment, and the little lady could rest assured. ”

Sales ghosts.

Xin Yi took the ointment and looked at it, and then returned it.

"Thank you, shopkeeper. I still want to do it myself, and I have more confidence in the ointment I made, so please help me get the medicine. ”

The young shopkeeper was stared at by her, and smiled awkwardly, "Don't hide it from the lady, the medicinal materials you want, the small shop probably doesn't have all the herbs." ”

Yes?

Xin Yi looked up in surprise and looked around.

The Sun family's pharmacy was a little deserted, and no one came to see a doctor in the store, which was indeed a little different from the past

Her mind moved, "What's going on?" Are the shops closing? ”

The young shopkeeper shook his head and sighed, "It's hard to put it into words, something happened to the shop...... was about to go out, the former shopkeeper was full of private pockets, greedy for ink medicinal materials, and the store was not stocked. If the lady can trust me, can you try my ready-made wound ointment? ”

Xin Yi saw that this young man spoke politely and politely, unlike people who were open-mouthed, he could probably guess that it was because of Dong Dahai's crime, the Sun family's pharmacy was repeatedly investigated by the imperial court and affected its livelihood, and the owner had a big business, so he didn't care about such a small shop, for the sake of his own reputation, he might really rent it out.

The little ninety-nine in her heart suddenly moved, and she was overjoyed.

"Did your owner find someone from the shop?"

The young shopkeeper shook his head, "The shop is still being liquidated, and there is no post to announce it." ”

Xin Yi smiled, "It's inconvenient for that party to ask, how many silver taels does this pharmacy need as a whole?" ”

"The shop is not our owner's, the lease period is still three months, and the goods, medicines and medicinal materials in the store can be packed together, and three thousand taels of silver are enough."

Three thousand taels? Xin Yi pondered.

"Is the price negotiable?"

"It's not negotiable." The shopkeeper shook his head, "The Sun family pharmacy has been quite prestigious in Beijing over the years, and the store is located in the downtown area, adjacent to the largest Jinzhuang Washe in Bianjing, backed by the Bianhe River, and there are many merchants and customers coming and going on both sides of the river. ”

Xin Yi didn't know much about the price situation in Bianjing City, nodded and smiled.

"The shopkeeper hasn't asked the owner, so how do you know that the owner won't agree?"

"I'm the owner." The young man said, seeing Xin Yi's scrutiny, he arched his hand, bowed slightly, and smiled to reveal his white tiger teeth.

"Xiaosheng Sun Yuzhi, a native of Yaozhou, has studied medicine since he was a child but has no intention of apricot forest...... This time, Xiaosheng was assigned by his father to enter Beijing to clean up the mess of the pharmacy and go to the capital to study by the way. I'm going to start school in the next year, so I want to get out of the store as soon as possible and concentrate on my studies......"

After a pause, he seemed to have made up his mind.

"That's good, Xiaosheng is in charge and will give the lady two hundred taels less, what do you think?"

Xin Yi shook his head.

"How much does the lady bid?"

Xin Yi looked at the storefront and felt a little regretful.

Sun Yuzhi didn't lie, in her opinion, the location of Sun's pharmacy is indeed excellent, and the facilities in the store should be first-class.

But she calculated the silver taels in hand, and there were about three thousand taels short of three thousand taels.

"I don't have enough money. Since the young owner's medicinal materials are not complete, then I can only change to another family. ”

Xin Yi smiled apologetically, lest people say that she had no money and came to entertain herself, and she didn't look at Sun Yuzhi's expression, bowed slightly, turned her head and left.

Sun Yuzhi was stunned, raised his hand to greet her, and asked her if she wanted the ointment, but Xin Yi had already walked out.

The carriage waited silently.

It's just that there is an extra small sedan chair next to it, and there is a broken horse Zhang Fei full of angry Cao girl.

Miss Cao's typical joy and anger are colorful, and when she sees Xin Yi, she pulls down her face and scolds.

"You pest, why are you embarrassed to buy medicine? If it weren't for the bad luck that bumped into you, a pig-brained woman, Brother Jiu would not have been beaten by the officials. I really want to tear you apart and avenge my ninth brother......"
