Chapter 34: Into the county seat

In April Mengxia, the acacia flowers are fragrant.

Li Langzhong was teaching his grandson to distinguish medicine in the pharmacy, and suddenly saw Jiang Sanlang walking in with a basket on his back.

Jiang Sanlang waved at Li Langzhong, "Uncle Li, I baked some more golden fungus, can you see if you can collect it?" ”

When Li Langzhong heard this, he suddenly came to his senses, stroked his beard and said, "Take it and take a look." ”

Jiang Saburo put the back basket on the counter and uncovered the linen cloth on it.

The back basket is full of yellow, and the fist-sized golden ears are like yellow hydrangeas, which are very eye-catching.

Li Langzhong was surprised, raised his eyes and asked Jiang Sanlang: "Where did San Lang find so many golden ears?" ”

Jiang Saburo scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "It's not looking for it, it's home-grown." ”

"No wonder." Li Langzhong was even more surprised, "No wonder they are all about the same size, and the colors are so pure." ”

He picked one up and pinched it, it was very dry, and when he tried harder, the golden ear made a clicking sound, as if it would be broken in the next moment.

"San Lang has put a lot of effort into it." Li Langzhong said with a smile: "It's made well, if it is well preserved, it won't be bad for a year." ”

He stretched out his head to look at the golden ear in the back basket and muttered to himself, "I have to find something to seal it." ”

He turned his head and told his little grandson to go and get two buckets to come and put them with golden ears.

This thing can't be weighed down to prevent it from shattering.

The little grandson ran to the back hall with a smoke.

Li Langzhong took out the bamboo and began to weigh the golden fungus.

"It's eight pounds in total." Li Langzhong said: "According to ten guan and one catty, I should pay you eighty yuan." Does Saburo want copper coins or silver ingots? ”

Although Jiang Saburo already knew how much the golden ear he brought today could be sold for, he still felt dizzy when he confirmed it again.

Mother, eighty guan, that is, 80,000 copper coins, you have to use a basket to fit it.

However, there are still a lot of copper coins at home, which are completely enough for half a year's expenses. So for now, it's better to take silver ingots and store them.

"Silver ingots, you need silver ingots, easy to carry." He laughed.

Li Langzhong also smiled and asked his little grandson to come over to put the golden ear, and he went to the backyard to get the silver.

This time, he took ten taels of silver ingots, a total of eight ingots, and the silver was shiny in front of Jiang Sanlang.

It was the first time Jiang Saburo had seen so many silver ingots, so he couldn't help laughing and put them into his pocket one by one.

He put the empty basket on his back and asked, "Uncle Li, I still have some golden ears at home, do you still want to?" ”

Li Langzhong was shocked when he heard this, "What? And also? ”

"Well, my family planted a lot this time, and I only got 20% today." Jiang Saburo said.

Now it was Li Langzhong's turn to scratch his head.

He was embarrassed: "San Lang, don't hide it, these golden ears collected by the old man are only temporarily stored, after all, most of the edible soup supplements are in autumn and winter.

Nowadays, the old man can only collect so much, and if he has more, there is no cash payment. Otherwise, you can send it to the county pharmacy to have a look. ”

Jiang Sanlang was stunned for a moment, and threw his hand at Li Lang**, "I understand, thank you Uncle Li for mentioning it." ”

Back home, Jiang Saburo was a little sullen.

Although he earned another eighty taels of silver, most of the remaining gold ears have not been sold.

Moreover, his eldest brother and second brother are also looking forward to it, hoping to make a fortune by planting golden fungus with him.

But now that Li Langzhong doesn't accept it, if the golden ear can't be sold in the future, how disappointed the eldest brother and second brother should be.

Chun Niang saw that her husband's expression was wrong, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Jiang Sanlang repeated Li Langzhong's words, and sighed: "Li Langzhong's pharmacy can't accept so many golden ears, it seems that I will go to the county seat tomorrow." ”

When Sakura Bao heard it, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly raised his hand, "Dad, I'll go too!" I'm going to the county seat too! ”

Jiang Saburo couldn't help but laugh when he saw the little girl's anxious appearance, "What are you going to do?" ”

"Go sell golden ears, dad, take me there." Sakura Po dangled her father's sleeve and coquettishly.

"Okay, I'll take you, I'll take you."

Jiang Saburo picked up his daughter and said to his wife: "I'll go to the front yard to discuss with the eldest brother and the second brother to see if they are free tomorrow, and it will be safer for our brothers to walk together." ”

If the golden ear can be sold in the county seat, there will be a large amount of silver in the account, in case it is not good to meet robbers on the way back, so there must be a few middle-aged men to accompany them.

Moreover, since they plan to take the eldest brother and them to plant golden fungus together, they need to find a merchant who can purchase them stably, otherwise, the brothers will be blind when they are busy.

"Alright, you can go."

Chunniang looked at her daughter uneasily, "Can ...... Do you really want to take Bao'er with you? It's so unsafe on the road. ”

Sakura didn't wait for his father to answer, and immediately answered, "I'm going!" Dad agreed to take Bao'er with him. ”

Chun Niang glared at the little girl, "Naughty, doesn't Bao'er want a younger brother?" ”

"If you want a younger brother, Bao'er came back from the county seat to bring delicious food to her younger brother and bring it to her mother."

The two younger brothers are seven months old and can eat something to grind their teeth, and she is going to the best pastry shop in the county to buy milk cakes for her younger brother.

Chun Niang: ......

Jiang Saburo smiled, "Just let her go, and when the time comes, bring Dacheng with you and let him carry Bao'er on his back." ”

Sakura Bao smiled and narrowed, and nodded again and again, "Don't worry, Bao'er is not naughty, Bao'er is useful." ”

Chun Niang was helpless and poked the little girl's forehead, "Then you have to be obedient, you can't run around, there are bad people in the county who will steal little babies, especially milk dolls like you." ”

"Well, Bo'er doesn't run around."

The next day, Jiang Saburo borrowed a donkey cart from the village family, took several large baskets of golden ears, and the three brothers went to the county seat.

Of course, Ying Bao and the lobby brother Jiang Cheng are also on the donkey cart.

Starting from dawn, we stopped all the way until noon to reach the city gate.

The soldiers defending the city asked them to pay a five-cent chariot and horse tax, and then they were allowed to go.

After entering the city, several people drove around in a donkey cart, mainly looking for a pharmacy where they could buy golden fungus.

Sakura Bao lived in the county for several years in his last life, so he knows the layout of the county well.

She instructed her father to catch the car, turn left and right, and enter a busy street.

The streets are lined with shops, colorful flags fluttering, carts carrying burdens, donkeys and horses, and all kinds of pedestrians are endless.

Sakura pointed to a shop, "Dad, that's a pharmacy." ”

In her previous life, she had taken her younger brother to see a doctor and catch medicine in this house, and she had superb Chinese medicine skills, and the shopkeeper was also very trustworthy.

I just don't know how it is now, whether it's the same as in my previous life.

Jiang Saburo looked up and saw that it was indeed a pharmacy.

"Jiukang Pharmacy."

Just look at the name and know that it is a big medicine hall for many years.

"Big brother and second brother, let's go take a look."

Jiang Saburo beckoned to the two elder brothers, "Bring a basket of golden ears first, and put the rest in the car for Dacheng to watch." ”

Jiang Dalang Jiang Erlang responded, got out of the car to tidy up his clothes, dusted off the dust on his shoes, and then walked to Jiukang Medicine Hall with the third brother.

Sakura was held in her father's arms, her eyes purring.

In front of him, the Jiukang Medicine Hall seems to be not large, and the medicine cabinet is not as large as in the previous life.

But the Jiukang in the previous life is already the Jiukang Medicine Hall more than ten years later, and it is naturally not comparable to the present.

After entering the shop, Jiang Saburo handed the little girl to the second brother, and stepped forward to hand over to a seventeen or eighteen-year-old dispensing man: "May I ask if the shopkeeper of your hall is there?" ”
