Chapter 30: Selling Dried Snakes (1)

Xiao Qiulan told her brother that the cat and the cage were sold for a total of 250 yuan, and Yao Zhiqiang thought she was joking.

When she handed him the money, he almost dropped his jaw!

Qiuqiu's face was full of joy, he guessed that the cat sold for a good price, but he didn't expect it to sell for such a good price!

I searched for the strange old man my sister described, and I was sure that I had never seen or heard of it, and this person might be a foreigner, and he was stupid and had a lot of money.

The scale of the market in Shuping Town is quite large, and the classification is also clear, with vegetable sheds, livestock sheds, and grocery streets, bustling, worthy of being a densely populated town.

Xiao Qiulan wanted to go shopping and see the ancient customs of buying and selling.

Looking at the silver krait in the cloth bag, she didn't know if the pharmacy here would accept it.

She told her brother that she wanted to go around the street, but Yao Zhiqiang did not agree.

She was soft and hard, and Yao Zhiqiang had to agree to accompany her.

Before, because he was worried about his sister's safety, he went back and forth to see her, and the things in the basket were stared at by his friends, and he didn't sell them at all.

Xiao Qiulan frowned and said, "Brother, you haven't sold much of your food yet, you take me shopping, do you want to pick up the food home?" Grandma will scold you! ”

Yao Zhiqiang grinned: "It's okay, Qiuqiu, you are clever, the cat sells for a lot of money, even if the vegetables are not sold at all, grandma will not scold!" ”

Xiao Qiulan followed his words and said: "Even if grandma doesn't know how to scold, it's hard to pick it up again, so why bother?" Brother, you say I'm clever, don't worry, I won't get lost when I go shopping. ”

Yao Zhiqiang hesitated or didn't agree, Qiuqiu This is the second time she has come to the town, she is timid and small, and a little girl's house is walking alone, so she is really not at ease.

Xiao Qiulan got up helplessly: "Okay, I won't go shopping, I'll go to the street pharmacy to have a look, right?" I'm going to check if the guy was there last time, and I'll be back right away. ”

The pharmacy was not far from here, so Yao Zhiqiang had no choice but to say, "Go and come back quickly!" ”

Xiao Qiulan took the cloth bag and immediately merged into the flow of people, she was afraid that her brother would regret it if she moved slowly.

The big pharmacy at the corner of the street, she saw it when she came.

She entered the pharmacy generously, there was no glass in the medicine cabinet in ancient times, and some medicinal materials to be displayed could only be placed on the countertop.

Xiao Qiulan is the same as a medicinal herb to watch, and I didn't see a dried silver krait.

The hundreds of drawers in the medicine cabinet all have the names of the medicines written in traditional characters, and there are no words for money and white snakes.

The guy came up to her and asked her what medicine she wanted to buy, and she asked if there was any money snake here?

She remembers that the dried silver krait snake is known as the money white snake in modern times, and it is said that the name of this medicine has been used in ancient times.

The guy looked surprised and said that there was no one in the store.

Xiao Qiulan explained that it was a dried silver krait, and the guy suddenly realized, and then asked suspiciously: "Only buy this one?" ”

Xiao Qiulan rolled her eyes and asked him rhetorically: "How much does a silver krait snake cost?" ”

When the man heard her words, he couldn't help but look at her again, coarse old clothes, washed white, and looked like a poor boy.

The price of a dried silver krait snake is calculated in silver, and he has never sold it whole, usually cutting it a little and chopping it for other medicines.

This poor boy doesn't understand the market at all, but he is afraid that he doesn't have a few pennies in his bag.

Out of politeness to the customer, the guy still replied to her: "It costs a few taels of silver to buy a whole strip!" ”

Xiao Qiulan was overjoyed when she heard this, great! The doctors of this era already know how to use dried silver krait in medicine, and the price is calculated in silver!

She couldn't wait to say to the guy, "Big brother, is you in charge?" ”

Sure enough, there was no money to buy it, and the guy was a little impatient: "Not there! After saying that, he turned around and greeted the other customers.
