The next morning, Lu Tao got up early and cooked food for the mother and daughter.

When he went out, he looked up and saw that the sun had not yet risen, and the sky was only bright, and he went straight to the mountain in the morning breeze.

In the previous life, when those medicinal herb merchants came to collect gynostemma, Lu Tao had not gone to the mountain to dig, but had only seen it in the collected medicine, so he had to explore it first to see how the situation on the mountain was.

However, he soon spotted gynostemma in the weeds.

Looking left and right, it is also very easy to find a lot of gynostemma, it seems that this mountain, is indeed full of gynostemma, but everyone is currently an old man, only think that this is a weed, do not know the value.

Since God sends food to eat, Lu Tao is not polite, plus he ate meat yesterday, and he is full of strength today.

He dug dozens of catties in one go.

I don't know if it's because I heard Lu Sitian's father a few times, or because in this life, I was very excited to see the mother and daughter, which made Lu Tao full of energy.

If it weren't for the fact that the basket was only that big, he would have wanted to dig more.

In the mountains in the morning, there is still a lot of dew.

When he got home, Lu Tao found that his hair and body had been completely wet, and he didn't know whether it was dew or sweat.

There are also a lot of mud marks on the body, especially the shoes, which have been wrapped in a thick layer of mud.

This scene made Su Yuqing a little stunned.

Is he really still the Lu Tao he knows?

Such dusty and dirty work, he is willing to do it?

Especially looked at Lu Tao's smile that was still a little satisfied.

Su Yuqing's heart was a little touched.

She stepped forward to unload the basket for Lu Tao, and asked puzzledly, "What are you doing here with these weeds?" I can't eat it, I can't see it. ”

As he spoke, he handed Lu Tao a towel and asked Lu Tao to wipe the sweat off his face.

Not to mention, just this handover made Lu Tao feel that he had picked less just now, and with Yuqing's kindness and care for himself, he could have picked ten more baskets!

He smiled innocently: "These are the herbs I want to sell for money, believe it or not, here these, how much I take out, how much I can sell!" ”

When Lu Tao spoke, there was still a smug look on his face.

Feeling that he can earn money back and let Su Yuqing and Lu Sitian live a good life is something that he is very proud of.

"What?! You say these things are worth a lot of money and can they be sold? You didn't lie to me, did you? ”

Su Yuqing was stunned on the spot.

Aren't these just the weeds on the mountain, Su Yuqing still remembers that many people in their village use this sun-dried as firewood.

"What are you lying to, help me wash it together, and then I'll sell it, and I'll definitely get the money back in a while!"

Lu Tao slapped his chest thumping.

Although Su Yuqing was always reluctant to accept it, she looked at Lu Tao's expression that didn't look like a lie, and her heart was in line with Lu Tao's request as long as he didn't gamble.

She squatted down and began to help Lu Tao carry water from the well with a bucket and wash it up.

While washing, he secretly looked at Lu Tao on the side. Seeing that he was not tired at all, he washed very hard.

There are some small entanglements in my heart.

I feel that Lu Tao not only took the money to go home yesterday, but also bought alabaster for herself, cooked food, washed dishes, and went up the mountain to collect medicine today.

This also made her original defense and suspicion of Lu Tao loosen up a little.

"Dad, I'm here to help you too!"

Tian Tian was playing on the side, and when she saw that her parents were busy, she hurriedly ran over to help wash it.

Of course, her help was only a disservice, and she threw the herbs so that it was full of water.

However, neither Lu Tao nor Su Yuqing blamed her.

On the contrary, both of them enjoy the feeling of being a family.

Both of them had rosy eyes.

How long has it been, how long has it been in this yard that there has not been such hearty laughter.

I really hope that this kind of time can pass more slowly.

......

It was almost noon after doing this, Lu Tao put the gynostemma in a snakeskin bag, and hurried to take the bus without eating lunch.

When I arrived at the county seat, I asked all the way to the door of Renhetang.

Lu Tao came to Renhe Hall and saw a young man sitting at the counter, and stepped forward to ask politely: "Hello, you see I have some herbs here, I don't know if you accept them?" ”

The young man was looking at the newspaper in front of him, and when he heard Lu Tao's words, he pulled the newspaper down and glanced at Lu Tao up and down.

"You want to sell herbs? Do you know what herbs are and what poisons are? Have you read a medical book? Or have you ever done Chinese medicine? ”

He looked at Lu Tao's dress as not a pharmacist at all, and was very disdainful.

I think this is the kind of peasant family who doesn't know anything, and when they get some strange plants, they think they are herbs and sell them for money.

Although he was embarrassed by this young man, Lu Tao was not annoyed by this, firstly, the burden of life on his shoulders was still very heavy, and secondly, he had experienced a lot of things in his previous life, and he had never seen any scenes, this kind of thing was really a trivial matter.

So he still said calmly: "I haven't read a medical book, nor have I done Chinese medicine, but I know that what I picked today is called gynostemma." ”

As he spoke, he reached out and took one and showed it to the young man.

Thinking that Renhetang is now in an environment where there is a shortage of medicinal materials, his gynostemma will definitely be looked down upon.

Who knew that as soon as his words came out, the young man stood up directly.

Throw the newspaper away: "Gynostemma?!" How many do you have? ”

It can be seen that his face is a little dignified, or he is very sensitive to gynostemma, but Lu Tao keenly saw from his face that he was more worried than happy.

Lu Tao hesitated slightly: "There are some, but I can't tell you how much, at least there are a few acres of land." ”

He really couldn't say it, after all, he didn't go all over the mountain.

Hearing Lu Tao's words, the young man frowned slightly, and quickly soothed, very vague, but it did not escape Lu Tao's eyes.

Then, he picked up the gynostemma that Lu Tao brought, looked back and forth, and threw it aside.

"This isn't gynostemma at all, it's a weed, you can go, this kind of thing, what if we eat our patients to death when the time comes?"

"We Renhetang will not accept such unclear things!"

After the young man finished speaking, he blushed and continued to sit in his seat and read the newspaper.

Lu Tao was a little inexplicable, and he felt that everything was strange.

He picked up the gynostemma and made sure he was not mistaken, then carefully put it back in the bag again, ready to go out and think about it again.

Originally, he thought it would be a very easy thing to do, as long as he took the gynostemma and could sell it.

Who knows if it's still disliked.

Could it be that this way of making money is going to be yellow?

In the morning, he swore to Su Yuqing that he would exchange these herbs for banknotes and come back.

I don't want to go back empty-handed. When the time comes, you will inevitably be suspected of deceiving people again.

Just when Lu Tao turned to leave.

The young man on the counter raised his eyes and looked at Lu Tao's back.

The corners of his mouth smiled slightly, and he muttered with some happiness: "Fortunately, Lao Zhou is not here today, otherwise we would have calculated in vain after trying our best to calculate for so long." ”

What Lu Tao didn't know was that he was actually not Renhetang's procurement, just a purchasing assistant.

Moreover, he has also wanted to sit in the position of procurement for a long time.

It can be said that as long as the procurement is taken away, then the people behind him will help him to ascend to the position and sit in the position of procurement.

Although Renhetang is a Chinese medicine hall, there are several shareholders behind it.

Nor are the shareholders united with each other.

The position of procurement is a fat gap for Renhetang, and it is also a key position.

So several shareholders want to install their own people.

Now they are indeed lacking gynostemma, but this lack of gynostemma is actually the result of the stumbling block of the shareholders who secretly support him by the purchasing assistant.

Their purpose is to make all the suppliers of gynostemma not to supply Renhetang, so that after getting the procurement position later, they will cooperate with suppliers to increase prices.

You can swallow huge kickbacks from it.

Therefore, now that Renhetang's procurement has such a big loophole, the young man, as a procurement assistant, even if Renhetang really lacks gynostemma, of course he will not accept Lu Tao's gynostemma and help his boss get through the difficulties.

In this case, the interests of the company are not important compared to their own interests.

For the sake of safety, the young man also went to the security guard below and ordered: "Don't let this person in if you see this person in the future." ”

Then he came back and sat in his position, and proudly cocked Erlang's legs: "I don't believe that such a big world can still let Lao Zhou meet you!" ”

At this time, Lu Tao came out of the gate of Renhetang.

When I looked back at the security guards at the door, I looked like I was staring at the terrorists.

He knew that the young man should have put himself on the blacklist of Renhetang.

It's just that he is very curious: why don't he come to sell a medicine, so that he will not be so malicious to himself, right?

Lu Tao turned around and wanted to leave, but he collided with a person who came in in a hurry.

"Huh. Dayuan Village, Lu Tao, it's you! ”
